Global Green USA Campaign Promotes Energy Independence, Smart Solutions to
Climate Change Through Stars Arriving at Academy Awards in Fuel-Efficient Cars
Who: Nominees Leonardo DiCaprio, Natalie Portman, Morgan Freeman, and presenters Scarlett Johansson, Charlize Theron, Gwyneth Paltrow, Tim Robbins, Orlando Bloom, Robin Williams, Salma Hayek, and Penelope Cruz among others.
What: Given the current state of global affairs and increasing threat of climate change, some of the biggest names in Hollywood are planning to arrive at the Academy Awards in fuel-efficient Toyota Prius hybrids instead of gas-guzzling limos. The celebrities want to demonstrate how each of us can take a simple yet powerful step to decrease our dependence on fossil fuels, reduce air pollution, and stem climate change.
Salma Hayek, actor, and presenter at this year's Awards says: "With global warming threatening us all, driving a fuel efficient car like a hybrid is something that everybody can do to protect our planet. I am proud to do my part: I personally own and drive a hybrid car. And I love it!"
Where/When: 77th Annual Academy Awards,
Sunday, February 27th,
