Mick Jagger recently called out the Trump administration for their lack of environmental policies.
The Rolling Stones frontman participated in a cast panel discussion for the film The Burnt Orange Heresy at the Venice Film Festival on Saturday night. When Jagger was asked about the subject of climate change protesters, he responded with, “I’m absolutely behind that. I’m glad they’re doing that because they’re the ones that are going to inherit the planet.”
“We are in a very difficult situation at the moment,” he continued, “especially in the U.S., where all the environmental controls that were put in place — that perhaps were just about adequate … have been rolled back by the current administration so much that they are all being wiped out. The U.S., which should be the world leader in environmental control, has lost that and has decided to go the other way.”
