I'm in Texas this week so who better to highlight on my Women on Wednesday than an amazing Texan women, actress and artist for the Amazon Rainforest.
“The Amazon is a lush, beautiful place filled with a plethora of sounds, smells, colors and shapes. It’s a world teeming with life. But most importantly, it’s millions of #trees that provide oxygen for our planet, and a barrier against #climatechange.”
Sissy Spacek has been one of the film industry’s most respected actresses for more than three decades. Her many honors include an Academy Award, five additional Oscar nominations, three Golden Globe Awards and numerous critics awards.
In 1980, Spacek starred as Loretta Lynn in the acclaimed biopic‚ Miner’s Daughter, winning the Oscar and Golden Globe Award for her performance. Her most recent Oscar nomination came for her portrayal of a mother grieving for her murdered son in the drama, the Bedroom, for which she also won a Golden Globe Award, an Independent Spirit Award, and an AFI Film Award for Best Actress.
Throughout her career, Spacek has balanced her career in entertainment with supporting organizations that help animals, support family farms, advocate for the protection of free speech, and educate people on environment ideal for our Women on Wednesday blog post.
The AMAZON AID FOUNDATION is a nonprofit organization that raises awareness about environmental issues in the Amazon rainforest through integrative science, art, and multimedia projects with a focus of educating youth around the world. Through interactive donor campaigns, Amazon Aid also provides solutions for protecting the rainforest by partnering with dedicated scientists and local organizations on the ground.
Amazon Aid works with some of the most respected forest ecologists who act as scientific advisors to ensure that their messages reflect current and accurate Amazonian research. Amazon Aid is the bridge between the public and the scientific community. They hope to protect and preserve the rainforest for future generations to enjoy.
