The Environmental League of Massachusetts (ELM) will host its largest event of the year, Earth Night, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. on May 1, 2025, at The 521 Overlook at Fenway Park. This gathering will focus on building momentum for Massachusetts’ climate leadership and celebrating ELM’s impactful work in advancing climate solutions across the state.

During the event, ELM will present the 2025 Commonwealth Environmental Leadership Awards to individuals who are leading innovative solutions in clean energy and climate action. This year’s award recipients include Dr. Yet-Ming Chiang, co-founder of Sublime Systems and Form Energy, for his groundbreaking work in energy storage and sustainable materials; Governor Maura Healey, for her climate action policies and commitment to a green economy; and Dr. Sally Kornbluth, president of MIT, for her leadership in climate and technological innovation.

The annual event is attended by hundreds of influential leaders from government, business and nonprofit sectors, all dedicated to addressing climate change and fostering sustainable solutions for Massachusetts and beyond.

ELM, a key advocate for robust environmental policy and sustainable practices, continues to drive action on climate change with a focus on equity, innovation and environmental justice. The event is a critical opportunity to foster partnerships and build relationships that will support lasting climate progress.
