School Of Cool profiles our favourite celeb heroes. From rock stars to royalty we reveal all the eco-secrets that make them top of the class. This week it’s Hugh Jackman…
So, who is he?
Hugh Jackman is an Australian actor, most famous for his roles as Van Helsing and as Wolverine in X-Men.
Impressive. What else do I need to know?
Jackman’s ideal job when he was younger was to be a plane chef (he later discovered it isn’t a real career and that trains are obviously much cooler). Before his big break, he was also offered a part on Neighbours, but turned it down. We’re glad he did, otherwise we might never have got to watch that topless scene in Australia.
So, he’s a cool guy, but why is he a Global Cool guy?
The Prestige actor has teamed up with Laughing Man Worldwide and made an African coffee blend that’s completely fair trade. All of the proceeds will go to charity too! He’s also often seen carrying around an eco-friendly Garden Life bag, and cycling a fold-up bike. What a hero!
