Margaret Qualley Says Young People Feel They 'Don't Have a Choice' Right Now: 'It Feels Very Dire'

Margaret Qualley is on the cover of Hunger Magazine‘s Future Issue, out now.

Here’s what the 25-year-old Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actress had to say…

On the climate crisis: “I was not a popular kid. I used to put up signs of cows being slaughtered in my North Carolina high school and I would rummage through the trash in the cafeteria to separate recycling…I’m definitely [climate] conscious and it’s definitely something I think about. There are a lot of ways I could improve my lifestyle to accommodate my carbon footprint.”

On Gen Z struggles: “The younger generation is where the real change is coming from, because they are the ones who are having to deal with the impact, so it’s frustrating when people whose lives are barely affected by it are so dismissive of these problems…I would say that young people feel they don’t have a choice right now. It feels very dire.”

On #MeToo: “How lucky am I to be working at a time when there’s care for people who weren’t properly being cared for before.”
