Daryl Hannah: Why Alcohol and Driving Do Mix (At Least When It Comes to Fuel)

Environmentally minded Splash star comes clean about car troubles, telling E! News, "It's just time for us to move to a clean, regenerative energy economy"

Daryl Hannah does not mess around when it comes to saving the planet.

The eco-friendly Kill Bill star was even arrested two months ago at the White House for protesting a plan to create a new oil pipeline.

But getting cuffed isn't keeping Daryl from speakin' out about going green...

"It's just time for us to move to a clean, regenerative energy economy," the actress recently told us. "The economy is suffering, the environment is suffering—we're facing a crisis on so many levels."

So what's Hannah's No. 1 green tip?

"It is possible to get off oil," she said. "I mean, any car...any fuel-injected car can run on alcohol fuel and any diesel can run waste-free. So, you know, as long as it's provided sustainably, it's better than being on petroleum."
