Adam Met, a member of the indie pop band AJR and an environmental advocate, received an Earth Award on Oct. 9 at the TIME100 Next Gala in Manhattan.
The annual event honors emerging leaders worldwide, and TIME’s Earth Awards highlight individuals working to solve the climate crisis.
It's not just going to be solved by musicians—certainly not just going to be solved by musicians.
Other prior Earth Award recipients include actor Mark Ruffalo, actor Jane Fonda, former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, and UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.
The TIME100 Next Gala was presented by Toyota, Discover Puerto Rico, Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch Whisky, and FIJI Water.
