Celebrities with a Conscience: Eco-Friendly Tips from Julia Roberts, Brooke Shields, Sheryl Crow, Kate Hudson, Gayle King, Jennifer Aniston, and Gwyneth Paltrow

Good Housekeeping has an eight page spread out entitled Celebrity Eco-Friendly Tips and famous stars share their strategies for living an eco-smart life. For example the healthy publicity breakthroughs from green diva Sophie Uliano, and her Gorgeously Green series has been bursting with creativity and attracting stardom. “Sophoe’s a passionate environmentalist and yoga instructor who quickly became Julia’ Roberts’ go-to “green guru for advice on living green while looking great.”

The star profiles highlight tips for living healthier with your families. The examples are further set with tales of experience from Julia Roberts, Sheryl Crow, Kate Hudson, Gayle King, Jennifer Aniston, Brooke Shields, and Gwyneth Paltrow, all sharing eco-smart strategies for life.

For instance, Gwyneth reports:

“My mom has always been conscious of the environment and health issues. When I was growing up, we would go to farmers’ markets and even had wheatgrass in the kitchen. She started a curbside recycling program in Santa Monica, CA, in the seventies, and each week I drove with her to the recycling center.

“It wasn’t until later that I understood the harm that can come from pesticides and other chemicals in food. As soon as I did, I tried to eat foods that were organic, grown locally, and not processed or full of preservatives. That was reinforced when I became a parent. When I’d read about what pesticides do to small animals, I thought, Why would I expose my child to that?”

Stars with a Conscience, is the theme here, and many of the famous icons share the importance of keeping the planet healthy for the younger, generations of the future. The feature on Brooke Shields and her kids highlights this. For more about non-toxic environments for the entire family, I invite you all to please visit our sister site Eco Child’s Play.
