Hollywood goes green at EMAs

Event includes stars like Ford, Flockhart

Mother Earth was the main star at Sunday's Environmental Media Awards, but many others, including Harrison Ford, Calista Flockhart, Daryl Hannah, Chevy Chase and Blythe Danner, turned out for the Paramount lot street party.

Danner, who suffered from a broken foot, presented an award from her table saying, "I am conserving energy, even though it is my own."

The night's host, Cedric the Entertainer, kept the night rolling with green-related jokes.

"NBC is now composting their pilots," he said. "So it's nice to see everybody getting onboard."

Even music honoree Jason Mraz switched things up with an impromptu performance of "I'm Yours," adding an eco-conscious twist to the end of the song.

Afterward, guests roamed Par's streets, picking up green gifts and healthy foods such as organic apples and raisins as well as seeds, soil and organic fertilizer.
