American actor and activist Jane Fonda has launched a climate campaign group that aims to “defeat” politicians who support the fossil fuel industry.
The star of Netflix comedy series Grace and Frankie and Hollywood movies such as Nine To Five announced she had set up the Jane Fonda Climate Political Action Committee to “do what it takes” to replace fossil fuel supporters with environmental champions at all levels of government.
A political action committee (PAC) is a campaigning organisation that donates money to political candidates in the US or parties that support its policies.

OK, cancel her jets, her limos, her electricity and gas.
Who could forget the classic Barberella....besides me?

Damn. One of her walk in closets in her Beverly Hills home is bigger than my current bedroom.
