EarthX is a media company dedicated to inspiring people to care about the planet. As the official network of Earth Day, we promote conservation and sustainability through diverse programming. Our omni-channel approach reaches all ages via a 24/7 linear channel, social platforms, and digital content, offering original series, documentaries, and solutions-oriented content on environmental challenges.

Initially, EarthX began during the pandemic as a streaming service, assembling top environmental lawyers for discussions on critical legal and policy issues. This "Law & Nature" series, developed by the EarthxLaw Advisory Council, continues to facilitate expert dialogue on environmental protection. We've grown significantly since then, but remain committed to these insightful conversations.
