Former JAMES BOND star PIERCE BROSNAN has won a major environmental battle in his adopted Malibu, California after his efforts helped secure a victory for activists trying to stop plans for an offshore, floating natural gas terminal.
Brosnan was among many celebrity Malibu residents who opposed the plans and he took part in a pier rally last month (MAR07) to make his feelings known.
California's Lt Gov JOHN GARAMENDI announced that State Lands Commission authorities had denied the lease to build the terminal at a meeting in Oxnard, California on Monday night (09APR07) - to cheers from protestors.
