Last night, amidst the scenic backdrop of Paramount Studio's Hollywood lot, the Environmental Media Association recognized this year's most outstanding contributions to environmental causes and green initiatives in the media.

Host Cedric The Entertainer joked with the crowd (which included Harrison Ford, Olivia Wilde and Ginnifer Goodwin) between acceptances from Jason Mraz, Richard Branson and the National Geographic Society, whom all received honorary awards for their model green-ness. Way to go, guys!
