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 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 - to cheers from protestors.
