Oscar-nominated actor Edward Norton comes from a long line of
activists: His father is an attorney for the National Trust for
Historic Preservation who’s also director of a Nature Conservancy
project in China, and his grandparents helped create the Enterprise
Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to community development and
affordable green housing. Norton has partnered with BP’s Solar
Neighbors program, which helps put solar panels on the homes of
low-income families in Los Angeles. In addition to hosting
environmental programs on National Geographic TV, Norton also
supports the work of groups like The Wilderness Society and
Earthjustice.
