Joker star Joaquin Phoenix arrested for climate change protest

Jane Fonda continued her "Fire Drill Fridays" rally to protest climate change near the U.S. Capitol on Friday. Joaquin Phoenix, who just won the Golden Globe for "Joker," joined her and gave a speech, before being arrested.

In his speech, Phoenix called on people to take practical actions to combat climate change: "Sometimes we wonder what we can do in this fight against climate change. There are things you can do today and tomorrow, and that is to make choices about your consumption."

"There are some things I can't avoid. I flew here today, or last night to be exact, but what I can do is change my eating habits."

In his speech after receiving the Golden Globe Award, he also mentioned the issue of climate change and expressed his praise for the decision to provide a vegetarian menu at the Golden Globe Awards dinner.

Fonda, who has been arrested several times for rallying in the past few months, said Fire Drill Fridays will continue in the future, but this is the last one in Washington for a while.

This year's Oscar nominations will be announced on January 13. Joaquin Phoenix is ​​the favorite for Best Actor.
