Gwyneth Paltrow has called for a reduction in the use of oil following the BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
The actress used her GOOP lifestyle website to recommend a recently-published book on the US's relationship with oil.
Paltrow said: "A few months before BP's disastrous oil spill, a book called Power Trip landed on my desk. Thoroughly researched by writer Amanda Little, the book takes us across America, chronicling the history of our deep reliance on oil.
"In light of what's happened, this fascinating book should now be a must read... Not only to understand the ways in which fossil fuel consumption has shaped us, but what we can now do to lessen (or even end) our dependence on this dwindling resource."
Celebrities including Pamela Anderson and Radiohead's Thom Yorke have called for action against BP since the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion on April 20.
Vampire Diaries star Ian Somerhalder has urged more stars to speak out about the disaster.
I assume this means she will no longer avail herself of the complimentary limousine ferrying her from home to studio or long-haul jet flights to appear on inconsequential chat-shows?
