This edition of Miss Earth made some historical feat: When Alyz Henrich won, Alyz made a history as she put Venezuela in the map of pageantry as the second country to win all the Big Four international beauty pageants at least twice (after Brazil); Katia Wagner, who was declared as Miss Earth-Air, is the highest Austrian beauty queen to achieve such feat in the Miss Earth pageant to date. Miss Thailand's Punika Kulsoontornrut won the title as Miss Earth-Water 2013, the highest title a Thai beauty queen achieved in the said beauty pageant. She shares that distinction with Watsaporn Wattanakoon, the Miss Earth-Water 2010. While the representative from Korea, Catharina Choi, achieved the same feat as Katia Wagner, but also the first Asian to snatch the Miss Earth-Fire title.
The theme of this year’s Miss Earth edition was “International Year of Water Cooperation”.
