Turner, Skoll receive Environmental Media Awards (AP)

LOS ANGELES â€" Green is always in fashion in Hollywood, and two American entrepreneurs are being honored for their ecological contributions.

The Environmental Media Association says Jane Fonda and Natalie Portman will present Ted Turner and Jeff Skoll with Environmental Media Awards at a private ceremony next month.

The awards recognize people, organizations, and TV and film productions that help raise awareness of environmental issues.

Skoll's namesake foundation has funded organizations such as the Amazon Conversation Team, the American Council on Renewable Energy and Global Footprint Network.

Turner, who founded CNN, supports wildlife habitat preservation, promotes sustainable energy and furthers other environmental causes through his Turner Foundation.

The 20th annual Environmental Media Awards will be presented Oct. 16 at Warner Bros. Studios.

Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt divorce is dismissed (AP)

SANTA MONICA, Calif. â€" Court records show divorce proceedings between Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have been dismissed.

Montag requested the action Wednesday without prejudice, meaning she could refile it later if necessary.

The reality show couple appeared on "The Hills," which filmed their relationship and wedding.

Montag filed for divorce in July, but the couple spent time recently in Costa Rica.

The dismissal was first reported Thursday by celebrity website TMZ.
