Actor Mark Ruffalo said in a recent interview that the world should consider President Donald Trump as “public enemy no. 1” in terms of climate change policy.
The Avengers: Endgame star also called 17-year-old Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg a real-life “superhero.”
Mark Ruffalo was recently promoting his environmental thriller Dark Waters when Britain’s Sky News asked him about President Trump’s attitude toward climate change.
“I think the world should consider my president as public enemy no. 1 at this point,” the actor replied. “What we do probably in the next ten years will probably be crucial to the future of the planet. This will only become more and more evident to us. We’re not going backward from here.”
Ruffalo stars in Dark Waters as attorney Robert Bilott, a corporate defense attorney who engaged in a protracted legal battle with chemical giant DuPont.
Sky News asked Ruffalo about Greta Thunberg, who has traveled the world promoting her brand of climate activism.
“There are superheroes,” Ruffalo said. “There’s Rob [Bilott]. There’s Greta. There’s Extinction Rebellion. These people — it’s happening all over. We have to make people uncomfortable. We’re going to have to get radical. We’re going to have to do peaceful demonstrations, peaceful protests, peaceful actions that stop this system.”
The Spotlight star, of course, is a constant critic of President Trump.
Last month, Ruffalo told his 6 million Twitter followers that “One way or another we are going to #KickTrumpsAss. Keep your anger, fear, and love where they belong and we will win. All for one and one for all!”

If Walrus Face thinks the Just Stinks Rebellion is so right and Climate Change is real then he would quit Hollywood and live in Grass Hut without any Heaters or Air Conditioners and would live on a diet of nuts and berries and walk long long miles to get his food and carry a club
Who cares what some overpaid actor has to say. The MSM and media in general keeps reporting what they have to say about the climate and such. The previous comments were spot on that said; “…why his opinions are to be highly valued?”
Since Mr. Ruffalo has such strong sentiments about climate, energy and environmental matters, I’m just curious why his opinions are to be highly valued. Does he have any advanced education or public policy experience in the areas he routinely opines? Probably not. So, generally, I view these types of narratives as mostly irrelevant in any form of intelligent, informed debate regarding climate, energy and attendant matters…
From what I was able to find, Mark Ruffolo’s education consists of high school and acting schools. From that he thinks he is qualified to give the world advice on a technical subject.
