Daryl Hannah is one hardcore environmentalist,
bless her heart - this is one star that does not have quadruple the carbon
footprint you do! In fact, she probably makes up for a few of
ya! The Kill Bill actress and global warming activist, who has won multiple environment-friendly
awards including the Influencer Of The Year Award in 2004, has a house run
on solar power, drives a biodiesel car, runs a blog on
sustainable solutions, and has actually been arrested for chaining herself
to a walnut tree to prevent the bulldozing of an urban farm.
Hannah attended the United
Nations General Assembly two-day climate change event, and in a press release yesterday by the UN said that "to her, the
issue of climate change came down to the question of values."
She
expressed that people need to examine the ramifications of their actions
and daily choices, and was thrilled that there was such great
international support, so much so that over 112 Member States had
requested the floor to discuss climate change.
"It [is] also
essential that individuals and non-governmental organizations receive
support of the international community, governments, and business," the UN
reported. "She was thrilled that people were finally beginning to
recognize the urgency of the situation."
We want that necklace!
