Leonardo DiCaprio's speech on climate change in front of the United Nations stirred a lot of conversation. Unfortunately, much of that conversation centered on the Leo's lavish lifestyle.
The Environmental Policy Alliance's Big Green Radicals has now created a video mocking DiCaprio's hypocrisy.
Leonardo DiCaprio wants you to know how much he cares about the environment. Just last month, at a UN climate summit, Leo reminded the world that he is "not an expert" but still has a lot of important things to say. For instance, he dubbed climate change "humankind’s greatest challenge," calling on the UN to "make history" by taking "decisive, large-scale action" with "courage and honesty."
Unfortunately, Leo fails to live up to his own words. Far from taking a "courageous" stand against climate change, Leo travels around the world in super yachts and private jets. Meanwhile, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), on whose board Leo sits, advocates for strict vehicle emission standards and aggressive carbon dioxide regulations.
