Left-wing actress Jane Fonda, 85, known widely as “Hanoi Jane,” blamed men and racism for climate change during a conversation at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, arguing that without the patriarchy, the crisis allegedly would cease to exist.
“This is serious,” she said Saturday. “We’ve got about seven, eight years to cut ourselves in half of what we use of fossil fuels, and unfortunately, the people that have the least responsibility for it are hit the hardest — Global South, people on islands, poor people of color. It is a tragedy that we have to absolutely stop. We have to arrest and jail those men — they’re all men.”

She continued with her claim that the climate crisis couldn’t exist without perfect conditions.
“It’s good for us all to realize there would be no climate crisis if there were no racism. There would be no climate crisis if there were no patriarchy. A mindset that sees things in a hierarchical way. White men are the things that matter, and then everything else at the bottom.”
Many still consider Fonda a traitor due to her actions during the Vietnam War when she earned the moniker “Hanoi Jane.”

Fonda recently made an appearance on “The Kelly Clarkson Show” explaining her social activism and why “there’d be no climate crisis if it weren’t for racism.”
Fonda has remained a longstanding advocate for climate change awareness, and her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival was no exception.
She spoke on activism, including what it means to denounce those she claims are responsible for climate change, saying she feels as if she is “fighting patriarchy and racism” whenever she takes a stand on the issue.
“It’s important because we have to get out of the silos — feminists over here, environmentalists over here. That’s what I learned when I started being an activist around the Vietnam War. The more you go down any issue, whatever it is, you realize that it’s all connected. And if we solve the climate crisis and haven’t solved those other things, we’re gonna be in trouble.”

Fonda’s climate activism also led to her arrest during an October 2019 demonstration outside the U.S. Capitol building in Washington, D.C. At the time, she told a reporter she chose to be there to bring the cause to the media’s attention.
“We’re trying to raise the visibility of this crisis,” she said.

Fonda was arrested at other climate protests as well, including with actor Ted Danson in a separate incident in Washington, D.C., in the same year.
