With regards to celebrities, the whole surface level purpose of them even participating in such conferences is to use their celebrity platform to attempt to persuade people to act for the forces of 'good.' I don't see why it's such a complicated concept that the message can be rendered ineffective with its audience when it's conduits do not personally act in congruence with their message.
You made a point that most people don't do environmental things unless their leaders do it first. That's just untrue on many fronts, including yourself not following that logic as you make decisions within your own "priorities and personal faculties" insinuating you are not swayed by leaders and celebrities. Do you see a dichotomy between people like yourself and "normal" people who follow on environmental stewardship?
