Save Dame Vivienne Westwood is donating STG1 million (NZ$2 million) to battle climate change.
The British fashion designer, a renowned environmentalist, is concerned that cash set aside for the issue is yet to be relinquished by governments.
"Governments ... are so slow that we can't wait for them anymore," she told
British newspaper The Times.
"We have to get this thing moving and hope that they'll join in."
The designer was talking before The United Nations Climate Change Conference in Durban, South Africa.
