Green Cross International has appointed international actress Famke Janssen as its first “Water Ambassador,” a role aimed at helping the global organization increase awareness on the global water crisis and their efforts to respond to this challenge.
Janssen, a Dutch national based in the United States, has previously served as a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador. She has a strong passion and interest in water conservation, environmental sustainability and animal rights. Janssen’s official title will be “Ambassador for Green Cross International’s Water for Life and Peace Programme.”
“Water is the source of all life but I fear it will be the source of future conflicts if we do not act now to conserve the planet’s reservoirs of water and find ways to share it fairly among all people,” Janssen says. “It is a great honor to support Green Cross International in its work to address the global water crisis.
