Paris Hilton goes green when she’s out and about town now. Huh? You got that right – Paris – who has the carbon footprint of Sasquatch – appears to have changed her mind about the environment and gone green. And there’s pictures to prove it!

More pictures of Paris after the leap…

Paris walked out of a store carrying a bag that said ‘Go Green.’ From OK! Magazine:

As she exited Catwalk Designer Vintage in L.A., a grinning Paris flashed a bag with the slogan “Go Green: Buy Vintage.” Because we all know that spending hundreds of dollars on old clothes is the true way to save the world.

Ha. I knew there had to be some trick involved! So, does buying vintage – in other words, recycled clothing – save you on the carbon footprint? Is Paris off the hook or just spending her money like a normal non-green person would too? Paris could have a lot of influence on what young people do to save the planet!
