This shouldn’t come as a surprise. Lindsey was the most anticipated delegate in Miss Earth 2020. Despite the virtual competition due to the limitiations brought by the pandemic, Lindsey stood out in what was considered one of the strongest Miss Earth batches in recent years. She exceeded all expectations, winning the evening gown and talent (singing) competitions. With her beautiful face and gift of gab, USA copped its first Miss Earth crown.
“I joined the Miss Earth sisterhood to become a voice, to inspire, and to make a difference in our world. Now is that opportunity. As now is the time for action,” she said after winning. “Now is the time to be more than your country. We are not just citizens of our nation. We are citizens of the world, and once we start to view one another as such, we will always find success. As your Miss Earth, that is the legacy I will leave behind me.”
As a a Climate Reality Leader, WWF Ambassador and now Miss Earth 2020, Lindsey made sure to use the platform given to her to promote environmental awareness and green solutions. In April 2021, she launched her Eco-Ed video series to encourage people to join the movement for climate action through easy-to-comprehend videos that break down climate issues.
She might have won the crown in a virtual fashion, but Lindsey is creating a significant effect not just in the pageant industry, but through her environmental awareness efforts – all these without the glitz and glamour pageant fans used to associate from pageants. Lindsey is the embodiment of a true beauty for a cause. That is the essence of being a Timeless Beauty.
