Methodology
For this report, MRC Business looked for examples of celebrities who were prominent climate change alarmists, and compared their message to their lifestyles. All net worth information came from Celebrity Net Worth. Both Nexis and the Internet were used to search both all English language news sources, as well as specifically ABC, NBC and CBS news broadcasts.
In determining who should be included in this report, MRC Business looked for examples of celebrities who were looked to as experts on climate change, by using lists including one from The Guardian (UK).
This report also only looks at people who advocated living with less for the sake of the planet, but who failed to follow their own advice. Celebrities who actually made a determined effort to live a “green” lifestyle were excluded from this list, even if they were vocal climate change alarmists.
