He added, "And you have shown terrific leadership. Unbelievable, I mean, you are really kicking some serious butt, so we are very, very proud of you. So thank you very much for everything that you do and you are a great leader in the environmental movement. Thank you."

Garner doesn't want her kids around Affleck's girlfriend
Actress Jennifer Garner doesn't want her estranged husband Ben Affleck's girlfriend Lindsay Shookus in their children's lives.
"Jen doesn't want the kids around Lindsay or having her in their lives. She has many reasons," Ausmagazine.com quoted a source as saying.
Garner, 46, and Affleck, 45, who called it quits in 2015 after 10 years of marriage, share three children: Violet, 12, Seraphina, 9, and Samuel, 6.
Though the Batman star officially got together with Shookus, 38, after Garner and Affleck's filing, a source said their relationship started as early as 2014.
As a result, one of the reasons the actress does not want Shookus around her children is "the fact that Ben had an affair with her", the source added.
"Ben understands and has honored her request. They're good friends. She wants him to be honest and he usually is. She tends to find out about things, and Ben is very open with her. They both want what's best for the kids and have made a commitment to see that through."
David Spade no longer talks to his father
Actor David Spade says he no longer speaks to his father.
The comedian discussed his relationship with Wayne Spade, who goes by the nickname Sam, in his new audio-book "A Polaroid Guy in a Snapchat World", reports suggest so.
The 54-year-old star says that he felt fresh resentment towards Sam after his daughter was born as it made him reflect on the mistakes his father made during his own childhood. David has a nine-year-old daughter Harper from his relationship with Playboy Playmate Jillian Grace.
David says becoming a father himself made him realise some of the problems he had been having with his own father, and so he made the decision to cut him out of his life.
"This one's going to be a little tricky -- this is a chapter about my dad, and the way that it fits into this audio-book is I'm a dad now. And the difference -- and why it caused some complications with my own dad -- is because he was sort of a ne'er-do-well, which is putting it mildly. I think f**k up is more on the nose,"
David explained the reason behind his action.
"We would be sitting at the doors with our bags because he would call us and say he wanted to see us. What I didn't realise back then was that it was a control thing. We never had his phone number. He would call us when he felt like it.
"I have a daughter now, and she came out of a situation with a girl I was dating and it was not planned. And I get angry, because my brothers and I were planned. Now, I'm so happy that I have a daughter and she's the best thing in my life, but I couldn't picture my daughter being sick and calling me and me not answering.'
"Or just calling her without any way for her to call me. That would be too much, it would be too rough. So when I had her, I got this new tidal wave of resentment towards my dad because of his irresponsible behaviour and manipulative mean streak. So I stopped talking to him."
The Rules of Engagement star says the decision to remove his father from his life might be "crazy" to some people, but he thinks it's what he deserves.

Wish I worded it better: Roseanne Barr on racist tweet
Actress-comedian Roseanne Barr says her racist tweet "cost her everything" and she wishes she had worded it "better".
Barr has apologised to people for her tweet about former Barack Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett, an African-American woman. The comment had generated immense backlash and led to the cancellation of her US comedy show Roseanne.
During her hour-long interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News on Thursday, Barr lamented the damage done to her by the tweet, reports The Guardian.
In response to the tweet "Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby vj" that she has written earlier this year, Barr clarified that people misunderstood it and said she would tell Jarett: "I'm sorry that you feel harm and hurt, I never meant that. I never meant to hurt anybody."
Barr repeatedly said her tweet was meant to address US-Middle Eastern policy and had no racial overtones. She said she was stunned by the negative reaction, which Hannity noted was nearly universal, The Guardian reported.
"I am a creative genius, and this is not a good feeling for an artist to be treated this way, and it's not a good feeling for a citizen, either," Barr added.
A supporter of US President Donald Trump, Barr further said: "I'm not a racist and the people who voted for Trump, they're not racist either, and Trump isn't a racist, sorry. We just have a different opinion."
Television network ABC has announced Roseanne will return in October as a spin-off called The Conners with all the main characters except Barr.
