Celebs to Party Green
The group has its own lesser known awards show, the 16th Annual Environmental Media Awards (somehow I missed the first 15) that celebrates movies and TV that incorporates the environmentally responsible message. The E! network will show highlights from the event on November 28th.
Now skeptics will point out the Prius' driving crowd including Ed Begley, Darryl Hannah and Cameron Diaz live in energy-wasting mansions and often travel by jet, so their driving of hybrids or biodiesel powered cars are empty actions. However, that they are doing something and trying to get the message out about sustainability through PSAs or their choice of car is more important for the message that it conveys to an easily persuaded public.
In reality the Cameron Diaz and Edward Norton's of the world can do a lot more to influence public opinion than you or I. If I had paparazzi and fans chasing me everywhere, I might have a hard time flying coach or living on Main Street as well, so some slack should be given.
