When she's not gracing the covers of fashion mags and catwalks around the world, Lily Cole is a fully-fledged planet saver.

A fan of Global Cool, Lily is also a long-time supporter of the Environmental Justice Foundation, a charity campaigning against environmental abuse and economic hardship.

In the first ever Cool Is... interview, we find out what the British-born supermodel thinks about work, sex and, of course, cool.

Lily is...Lillum Superbum.

Life is...indeed, life is.

Work is...being on top.

Happiness is...not wanting more than you have at any given moment.

Friendship is...who's stayed behind when all the others have buggered off and left you. Nit-picking. Love.

Love is...old.

Sex is...even older.

Tomorrow is...happening already.

Green is...a wavelength.

Cool is...feeling.
