(CNN) Actress and activist Jane Fonda said she thinks President Donald Trump's actions on climate change are "criminal" and that now is the time for "bold ideas."

"I don't hate him. I feel sad for him," Fonda said of Trump Saturday on CNN's "The Van Jones Show." "And what he's doing to the world ... is just criminal. It's just criminal. It's terrible. But there's more of us, and we can make a difference."

Fonda said when Trump became President, she wanted to get "a lot of very beautiful women who are very, very smart about climate" -- citing Pamela Anderson as an example -- to make the case of climate changes' urgency to Trump.

She said she spoke with Trump's senior advisers and daughter and son-in-law, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, but did not hear back from them again.
