Actress and activist Jane Fonda has pledged not to buy "any more clothes" in her effort to fight climate change.
Fonda, during her weekly "Fire Drill Friday" climate change protest on Capitol Hill last week, made the declaration that the coat on her back was the last piece of clothing she would ever purchase.
"You see this coat? I needed something red, and so I went out and found this coat on sale. This is the last article of clothing that I'm going to ever buy," she said in footage captured by video journalist Nicholas Ballasy.
Fonda then attributed credit to youth climate activist Greta Thunberg for making her "think a lot about consumerism."
"I grew up when consumerism didn't have such a stranglehold over us, so when I talk to people about how we don't really need to keep shopping, we shouldn't look to shopping for our identity, we just don't need more stuff, then I have to walk the talk," she said. "So I'm not buying any more clothes — it gives me a lot of free time."

I don’t get the joke.
But then, I haven’t had my morning caffeine pills yet.
99.999999% of people have no clue who she is anyway ,LOL
Red is the perfect color to define Hanoi Jane. No clothes Jane was “Barbarella”.
6. She don’t wear no stinkin’ underwear.
When she runs out of undergarments, she’ll pretend she’s in the military and “go commando.” Why doesn’t she just do the ultimate protest of burning all of her clothes and going nude all of the time. That will hopefully keep her out of public areas.
This time it will when we turn out the lights.
Jane Fonda ceased to exist for me once she stopped playing sex-kitten roles.
So... Fonda plans to "save" the planet by taking jobs away from clothing store employees?
She probably has enough clothes in her closet to wear for weeks without repeating the outfit.
More than Liz Warren.
Liz going for the School Marm look.
She’ll be sorry she didn’t get a raincoat for after she is dead and buried.
What happens when she needs new underwear?
Depends?
Fonda is just as ridculous now, and making exactly the same fool of herself as she did years ago......
Same here. 71 years old. Have enough clothing until I move to the Gloryland. Our cars will be our last cars. I have enough fabric in my quilting stash to last for 20 more years.
Jane is making an enormous sacrifice, isn’t she?
Live naked in an alley and drink rain water.
That manna served a one-time purpose. I’d rather have her in competition with raccoons raiding garbage cans.
