Joaquin Phoenix and Jane Fonda's small symbols of climate activism are meant to inspire the same activism in the fashion industry and everyday folks. But how far can one tux and a red coat go?

Cutting back on clothes is a choice rather than a necessity now. But if cotton crops dry up or water depletes, it could become the only choice.'We haven't always shopped this way'

"We haven't always shopped this way," Bédat said."It's become a trend to have a super low-quality clothing that we don't really want to wear because we get rid of it so fast." "[Fashion] is so much of how we communicate our self-identity, our confidence," she said."But because the volume of production and the speed of disposal are increasing, we are seeing just how wasteful it is."Phoenix and Fonda alone probably can't dent the global fashion industry's carbon footprint. But their visibility can empower consumers to dig into their closets and find new inspiration in well-worn garments."It gives consumers validation," she said.

How about put your $$ where your mouth is? Give up your lavish lifestyle & dedicate your $$ & time to the cause. Give up your staff, cars, mansions, travel, & jets.

Symbolism over substance...

Lol you clowns

No one is paying attention to them. Or your, for that matter.

Celebrity worshiping is so last year

The last person anyone should want championing their cause is Jane Fonda.

Joaquin Phoenix is obviously very self aware of how it can come across hypocritical when he speaks as a celebrity, and so he seems genuine. Jane Fonda, on the other hand, drinks her own kool aid daily.

Most people don’t even understand the concept of fast fashion or consumerism so they are opening the eyes of many people. It’s a good thing.

Americans have soured to Hollywood liberals and their egoist televised awards shows.

Pretty damn far, if they're well made. The problem is the fast fashion industry that the rest of us are resigned to support you know, cause most us can't spend $10,000 on a bespoke suit.

Who else is sick of these bullshit artist

The Phoenix is rising

Mercedes bens Look my Avatar BMW my 2016 concept and steal copy from my concept ! 4 year after 2020!

I’m pretty dang liberal, but yikes to Jane Fonda. Career of private jet setting everywhere, and she is trying to do all this stuff? nahhh, I’m not really on board with her

Stinky

One limo ride to the award show is equivalent to 100,000 suit reuses

How far can one tux and a red coat go? As far as their private jets can take them....

Literally everything you put out now is a joke......

Not very far.

Gotta give the dude credit. Looks like he's not showering between award shows either

Seahawks should’ve won that game

There's no climate crisis
