Actor and musician Jaden Smith will be presented with the Male EMA Futures Award for his leadership and action on environmental issues at the Environmental Media Association’s (EMA) 26th Annual EMA Awards on Oct. 22 at Warner Bros. studios in Burbank, Calif.
As a leader of a generation that understands the severity and consequences of pollution and global warming, Smith joins Shailene Woodley as the male counterpart of the 2016 EMA Futures Award recipient. The EMA Awards recognize and honor environmental pioneers who embody the commitment and leadership to raise awareness of environmental issues.
“We are so honored to be able to share with the global public this inspiring young voice for environmental issues and sustainability,” said Debbie Levin, President of EMA. “Jaden is a true activist and role model that can authentically lead his generation to a more thoughtful and conscious future. Taking action and creating a movement sharing his vision of water stewardship, forestry and plant-based solutions with the goal to decrease the level of greenhouse gas emissions can influence billions. We couldn’t be happier to present Jaden with the Male EMA Futures Award. We are so grateful for his innovation, for his commitment to preserving our earth and for the powerful example he is setting for not only his generation, but for all of us, to take action.”
