2022 People's Choice Award Nominations Now Open
Help us honor someone (or a group) who has gone above and beyond to protect a special place, or helped pass a particular safeguard for Maine’s environment, or worked to stop polluting companies from contaminating our state—a volunteer who has devoted their time and effort to making future generations will enjoy the kind of Maine we know and love today.
We’re accepting nominations for our People’s Choice Award through Friday, August 19, so get your nomination in today! NRCM will compile the nominees and post finalists on our website, where, from Monday, August 29 through noon on Monday, September 19, you, your friends, and your family can vote for the person you think most deserves this year’s People’s Choice Award.
The winner will be presented with the award at NRCM's Conservation Leadership Awards event this fall.
(Important note: We cannot consider someone currently sitting on a regulatory board or who is in the Legislature. We also cannot consider someone who is or was serving in a paid position while carrying out the work for which you think they should be nominated. The NRCM People's Choice Award was created to honor people who are working to protect Maine's air, land, water, and wildlife and do this in a volunteer capacity.)
