Vivienne Westwood
FASHION DESIGNER AND ENVIRONMENTAL CAMPAIGNER
Dame Vivienne Westwood and Andreas Kronthaler have been amongst Cool Earth’s most committed supporters.
After years of researching the most effective way of fighting climate change, Vivienne and Andreas came to the conclusion that Cool Earth had the best model and best record for halting emissions. To date, they’ve donated over £1.5 million to our projects and converted friends from Kate Moss and Georgia May Jagger to Stephen Fry to the Cool Earth mission. Following a visit to the Asháninka Project they funded in Peru, Vivienne and Andreas dedicated two fashion shows to Cool Earth. Vivienne has since become a highly effective lobbier of the Peruvian government.
“I’VE PUT MY FAITH IN THE FANTASTIC CHARITY COOL EARTH, WHICH WORKS WITH LOCAL TRIBES TO PROTECT RAINFOREST THAT IS VULNERABLE TO LOGGERS. AND THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT IT WORKS.”
