I HEART Green celebs


"Been there, done that, got the Green t-shirt:)"
Global Warming and Climate Change is real. I really believe that Celebrities can do a lot to create environmental awareness and encourage their audiences to Go GREEN.
I commend the celebs that are earning their stripes... Heres eco-celebs that get the Green t/shirt from "Greening in Stilettos"...

Though Mary-Kate doesn't have the best Eco-Babe rep (sporting crazy furs - a NO NO), she's seen the light and redeeming herself with a good green cause. Olsen's part of the Environmental Media Association, which invented the "green carpet." What does that mean? It means they've got celebs taking hybrid and electric cars to award shows and parties! Now that's cool.

"Greening in Stilettos" gives Mary-Kate the GREEN light for seeing the light:)


Eco-hottie Josh Hartnett is active in Global Cool, a charity that's trying to get 1 billion people to reduce their carbon footprints over the next 10 years. If you're gonna learn about CO2, having a cutie like Josh teach you is the best way to learn!


Our planet is a wonderland! John Mayer has joined forces with Reverb, an enviro org, to totally Green-out his summer tour. What's more, a percentage of the concert proceeds go to his very own charity fund, "Back to You," which helps fund art programs, food banks, homeless shelters, and lots of other great causes.


Actor Brad Pitt is helping to rebuild the homes of victims to hurricane Katrina in New Orleans — and donating $5 million of his own money — to Make It Right (makeitrightnola.org), an adopt-a-green-home campaign that he hopes will help restore the still storm-ravaged Lower 9th Ward. For every $150,000 that comes in, a family will get a home. And not just any house... Get this — These homes will be SO Green and disaster-proof that they'll even float, Literally!
The house designed and developed by Morphosis architects and graduate students at UCLA’s School of Architecture and Urban Design is the first floating house permitted in the United States. The house can sustain its own water and power needs, survive floodwaters as high as 12 feet and its affordable!

Leonardo DiCaprio has definitely earned his title as the ultimate Eco-hottie. If you haven't seen The 11th hour, run to that dvd store, this is a must see Eco-nistas. It's a powerful eco-documentary that he co-produced, wrote, and narrated — about the human impact on the environment. He also partnered with the upcoming Discovery Networks' Planet Green to produce Eco-Town, a 13-part reality series documenting the green rebuilding of a Kansas town that was torn apart by a tornado.

Woop woop Leo!



This Hero, best known for her "Save the whales" campaigns, Hayden Panettiere tops my list of Eco-Babes...
