Miss Earth Australia 2018 was presented by Salone by V Guilletta PTY LTD with Maria James as the founder of Miss Earth Australia.
Miss Earth Australia is a national beauty pageant that promotes awareness of environmental issues at grass root level. The contestants spread among their communities across Australia the need to protect the environment and mother earth through various activities within their communities (e.g., water preservation, recycling, plantation, etc), spanning over about 6 months from their registration as contestants in Miss Earth Australia to the final ceremony for the selection of Miss Earth Australia held last 8th of September 2018.
Our pageant is part of Miss Earth International, which has organisation in about 120 countries worldwide and is now one of the world's top three international beauty pageants.
Contestants come from all States and Territories. The winner, Miss Earth Australia 2018, Monique Shippen travels to the international pageant in Manila to compete against candidates from around the world.
Part of the contestant activities during her environmental campaign, she encourages relatives, friends, and the local community to plant trees because they remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Our sponsors are also encouraged to plant trees to inspire those around them, including their employee, families, friends, suppliers, and clients) to initiate their own tree planting program. A national tree planting scheme can make a huge difference to the atmosphere and also to the general attitude in the community about the environment and pollution. We believe that small steps lead to bigger steps and, on a national scale, they add up to a significant cumulative achievement. Australians are very concerned about the wellbeing of the environment. They want to do something that is significant and achievable. This is an opportunity for your business to support our cause and to be recognized by the community as socially and environmentally responsible.
On 3rd of November 2018 at the Arena Mall of Asia in Manila will held the coronation night of Miss Earth International Pageant. Monique Shippen will be the ninth Australian candidate has been sent to the said pageant.
