Jane Fonda on How People Can Make Politicians Care About Climate

Actress Jane Fonda plans to devote the rest of her life to the fight for climate justice, because she knows just what we stand to lose.

“I grew up to the sounds of coyotes and nightingales and mourning doves. I’ve swum and scuba dived on the Great Barrier Reef and in the Galapagos, I’ve looked at sea turtles right in the eye,” she said after accepting an Earth Award from TIME CEO Jessica Sibley on Wednesday evening. “One of the big problems is that we’ve become alienated from nature.”

In recent years, Fonda has become known as a champion for environmental activism—most notably founding Fire Drill Fridays with Greenpeace USA in 2019 to demand legislative action on the climate crisis.

Fonda said the movement’s target audience was not politicians but everyday people.
