As the world struggles to get to grips with the challenges of global warming, it’s good to know that change is coming from the very top.

From the very top of the acting profession, we mean, after designer Stella McCartney praised actor Joaquin Phoenix for wearing the same tuxedo to all of this season’s award ceremonies.

This man is a winner… wearing custom Stella because he chooses to make choices for the future of the planet. He has also chosen to wear this same Tux for the entire award season to reduce waste. I am proud to join forces with you… x Stella#JoaquinPhoenix #GoldenGlobes pic.twitter.com/Ymbkl78ecN

Except it’s fair to say not everyone thought it was such a grand gesture as McCartney did.

The SAME TUX?
For MORE THAN ONE NIGHT?
Wow, this is an incredible sacrifice.
Thank you, Joaquin – your planet is grateful. https://t.co/4ZTvJowkEg

History will mark yesterday – the day when Joaquin Phoenix chose not to throw an actual tuxedo away like the wrapper of a slice of burger cheese – as the moment humanity finally fought back against the climate crisis https://t.co/I7qEGfkdyk

I care so much about the environment that I have made my work consistently average so that I never get invited to any awards ceremonies and thus don’t need ANY tuxedos. We’ve only got one planet, guys.

Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear the same designer tux for an entire awards season. https://t.co/M0JyiVnj8B

We’re with @mrnickharvey.

I wore the same underpants for most of 2019. https://t.co/mnOSZ1NaCJ
