Which favorite celebrity is helping to protect the environment and stop water pollution, global warming and climate change?

There are a number of famous people who are working towards protecting our environment. The biggest face in climate change and global warming is Al Gore, former Vice President of the United States and 2002 Nobel Peace Prize winner (along with IPCC- the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). He has been a longstanding supporter of taking action against climate change, among a number of other environmental issues.


Among the "celebrities," Leonardo DiCaprio is probably most well known for his support of environmental issues. His foundation, the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, is funding projects in the areas of stopping climate change, ocean conservation, biodiversity protection and nature preservation. In the past two decades, his foundation has funded more than $30 million worth of projects. He has also narrated and produced a documentary about global warming titled "The 11th Hour" in 2007.


There are a number of other famous people who are supporting environmental causes.


Hope this helps.
