Frail Jane Fonda, 85, is seen in wheelchair at LAX

Jane Fonda looked frail as she was seen in a wheelchair on Wednesday as she returned to LAX Airport from the Cannes Film Festival.

The iconic actress, 85, who claimed ‘white men are to blame for the climate crisis’ at the festival on Saturday, was driven through the terminal by an airport worker after her long-haul flight from France.

Fonda wore a black jacket, lavender sweater, black pants and a white shirt for her arrival look.

She completed the ensemble with sunglasses and a black face mask.

It’s unknown why Fonda used a wheelchair – but in the past she’s had back surgery, artificial knee surgery, and a hip implant that required her to use the assistant.

Fonda is facing backlash after she called for men to be “arrested and imprisoned” for the planet’s destruction, while specifically blaming white men for creating the “climate crisis.”

“It is a tragedy that we absolutely must stop. We must arrest and imprison those men – they are all men [behind this],” she said at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday.

She added that “there would be no climate crisis if there was no racism.”

“White men are the things that matter and then everything else [is] at the bottom,” the outspoken actor said of the “hierarchy” that empowers men.

Fonda first shared her thoughts on the link between racism and climate change in an interview on The Kelly Clarkson Show earlier this year.

“Where would they put the sh*t,” she said. “They’re not going to put it in Bel Air. They have to find a place where poor people or indigenous people or people of color live.’

Fonda on Saturday called on those in positions to act quickly as she says there is less than a decade to save the planet from the effects of climate change.

‘This is serious. We have about seven, eight years to cut our fossil fuel use in half, and unfortunately the people least responsible are going to be hit the hardest,” she said.

“Global South, people on islands, poor people of color,” the actress continued.

Her comments came after a public demand at the famed film festival.

It is good for all of us to realize that there would be no climate crisis if there was no racism. There wouldn’t be a climate crisis if there wasn’t a patriarchy,” Fonda said.

‘A mindset that views things hierarchically. White men are the things that matter and then everything else [is] at the bottom,” she explained.

The ‘Grace and Frankie’ actor previously made headlines for her striking comments on the highly politicized issue.

In December, Fonda announced that her cancer is now in remission and that she has been told by doctors she can stop chemotherapy before her 85th birthday next week.

The Barbarella star revealed the happy news to her fans via her website, calling it “the best birthday present ever.”

“Last week I was told by my oncologist that my cancer is in remission and I can stop chemo,” she wrote in a lengthy post.

In September, Fonda – who has previously battled the disease – announced she had cancer after being diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, but told fans at the time she felt “lucky” because it was “very treatable.” is.

The thrice-married star said in her latest health update: “I feel so blessed, so lucky. I thank all of you who have prayed and sent good thoughts my way. I’m convinced it played a part in the good news.’

‘I’m especially happy because although my first 4 chemo treatments were pretty easy for me, I was only tired for a few days, but the last chemo session was tough and lasted 2 weeks, making it difficult to accomplish much of anything. ‘

Fonda, a two-time Oscar winner, said in September that she was “privileged as a celebrity” and was “lucky” to have “health insurance and access to the best doctors and treatments.”

She has previously been diagnosed with both breast and skin cancer, blaming the latter on her past love of sunbathing.
