George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Cindy Crawford, Sheryl Crowe. The stars you know by last name only are hot on the ecology trail. George is single, and while his [Tesla](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-Mini-Countryman-SUV) [Roadster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yamaha-tricera) is being built, he's leaning on the Tango Electric car, a one seater.

Julia Roberts and her pals started a green club. Cindy Crawford now only uses a reusable water bottle and designed a chic bottle with proceeds going to Children's Safe Drinking Water. She buys locally grown foods and stopped having phone books delivered. (Phone books make up 10% of waste in landfills.)

Sheryl Crowe has launched designs for the eco-fashionista. She's known to donate bags and bags of unworn clothes to her local secondhand shop every six months.
