The Environmental Media Association (EMA) has long served as a valuable link between the media and the environmental community and their efforts have attracted some of the biggest names in Hollywood and corporate America. 

Jaden Smith will host the 27th Annual EMA Awards benefit, presented by Toyota and Lexus, on Sept. 23 in Los Angeles to honor those that are leading by example and using their voice to help promote solutions in innovation and activism to combat the current administration’s rollback on funding.

Academy Award and Golden Globe winner Natalie Portman will be honored alongside three-term Mayor of New York City, founder of Bloomberg Media, Bloomberg Philanthropies and author of Climate of Hope, Michael R. Bloomberg. Portman will receive the EMA Ongoing Commitment Award and Bloomberg will receive the Lifetime Achievement Award.
