DESCRIPTION:The Sierra Club - the nation's largest and most influential grassroots 
 environmental organization - will celebrate its 125th Anniversary at the 
 Trail Blazers Ball in San Francisco. The event will celebrate the Sierra 
 Club's historic work at the federal, state, and local levels to protect 
 millions of acres of our wild America and accelerate a just and equitable 
 transition to a 100% clean energy economy.\n\nGolden Globe-nominated 
 actress and environmental activist Shailene Woodley will be honored for her 
 powerful grassroots activism. The star of HBO's "Big Little Lies" has been 
 an outspoken opponent of the Dakota Access Pipeline, demonstrating 
 alongside the Standing Rock Sioux and hundreds of other tribes and allies 
 to fight back against the crude oil pipeline that threatens their drinking 
 water, culture and livelihood. \n\nBusinessman, politician, and 
 philanthropist Michael R. Bloomberg will be honored for his enduring 
 commitment to combat climate change. Through his foundation, Bloomberg 
 Philanthropies, he has partnered with the Sierra Club's Beyond Coal 
 Campaign, which has helped retire nearly 250 coal plants across the 
 country. Bloomberg Philanthropies is also producing From the Ashes with 
 RadicalMedia, a documentary about the legacy of the coal industry. He is 
 also the co-author of Climate of Hope with Carl Pope, former executive 
 director of the Sierra Club. Bloomberg also advocated for cities to commit 
 to ambitious climate-related goals as the UN Secretary-General's Special 
 Envoy for Cities and Climate Change.\n\nEvent co-chairs are Jack Dorsey
