Celebrities Going Green




“Going Green” is the new, popular trend throughout the media world. Some of Hollywood's hottest stars, such as Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio, are promoting ways in which people can help the Earth and “go green”.
Cameron Diaz is a big supporter of the “Go Green” movement. In an issue of Marie Claire Magazine, Cameron Diaz reveals that she is doing a movie/documentary on the state of the Earth. She is very concerned about the planet, and wants people to be more aware of all the ways in which we can help better, or “green” our Earth. She makes it clear that we should be aware that our resources, such as water, plants, soil, etc., are running out on us. In an interview, she encourages people, children, to become more active in helping green our planet. She also took part in a donation of old shoes that were sent to become recycled material.
Leonardo DiCaprio is another celebrity that promotes the “Go Green” movement. He is apart of a documentary about global warming, and encouraged other celebrity to show up at the 2007 Oscars in hybrid vehicles. He also is producing a television series called “E-topia”. This show will renovate a city into a environmentally friendly place. DiCaprio also lives in an entirely greened out house.
Many other celebrities support the “Go Green” movement that has swept the nation. Celebrities going green is a positive thing that can have a huge impact on the Earth. When fans see that their favorite celebrities are going green, they are more likely to go green, too. They are encouraged to follow in their favorite celebrities footsteps, just like Christians are encouraged to follow in Jesus' footsteps. Greening the Earth can help better our planet for future generations.

  1. I think it's great that celebrities are going green. Many people look up to celebrities and try to emulate them. Hopefully because of this, children and fans alike can do their part and help out with the environment. With America's big fascination with celebrities we can do our part to help our own communities.

  2. Being that celebrities are e huge part of our lives as Americans, this can help the overall green movement. By setting this positive example, others will follow. The actions of the rich and famous are seen as cool. Sometimes this is a bad thing when celebrities set the wrong examples. Thankfully, in this situation the right example is being set and it is great to see that they are using their fame to spread the word about going green
