Nick Carter United Nations Special Ambassador?

That's right, former Baskstreet Boy and Paris Hilton dater Nick Carter has signed on to represent the United Nations Environment Programme. Nick says he was inspired by the likes of Angelina Jolie, Bono and others to use his celebrity to better the environment. He will help raise awareness for the "Year of the Dolphin" Campaign and had this to say about it.

“I am really excited, but also a little nervous about this much responsibility...it is an actual job. There are responsibilities and commitments that I must make to be the voice of dolphins, whales and conservation issues, and the expectations are quite large."

Great to see your stepping up to the plate and getting a real job Nick, just don't let them know your only knowledge of the dolphin is that it is an extremely difficult sexual position.
