Konnie looks ‘green’ hot as Marilyn Monroe as she wears a dress crafted entirely from recycled newspapers for npower Climate Cops SOS.

Konnie Huq has been unveiled as the ambassador for npower’s successful green programme Climate Cops SOS in a photo shoot recreating the iconic still from The Seven Year Itch.

Climate Cops SOS, now in its third year, is designed to motivate the UK's greenest teens into turning their passion for the environment into a positive campaign for their area.

Posing in a dress crafted entirely from pages of recycled newspapers, the Xtra Factor and former Blue Peter presenter gives environmental issues a real wow factor to inspire the 10 finalist schools to get creative with their own green projects.

npower launched its search for the most passionate green teenagers back in April, where students were asked to identify an environmental issue which affects their community.

Today the 10 finalist schools will take part in an exclusive workshop hosted by Konnie at London Zoo, filled with innovative sessions to help inspire and motivate the teams as they venture forward with their green projects.

Each school will receive a starter fund of £1,000 from npower to help bring their project to life.
