Leonardo Dicaprio has won the Oscars for the fantastic role he played in the movie 'The Revenant'. The movie is about struggle and revenge but has very subtly shown the climatic conditions during pre-industrialization era.
Leonardo DiCaprio is many things rolled into one but first and foremost he is a human. A concerned human, who knows that the biggest threat the world is facing is climate change. In his speech at the Oscars 2016 all he could talk about is the climate change.
Read the part of his speech about climate change.
“I just want to say this, making The Revenant was about a man’s relationship with natural world. A world that we collectively felt in 2015 as the hottest year in recorded history. For our production we needed to move to southern tip of the planet just to be able to find snow.
Climate Change is Real! And it is happening right now. It is the most urgent threat facing our entire species.
And we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating. We need to support leaders around the world who do not speak for the big polluters and big corporations but who speak for all of humanity for the indigenous people of the world. For the billions and billions of underprivileged people who will be most affected by this. For our children’s children and for those people out there whose voices have been drowned out by the politics of greed.
I thank you all for this amazing award tonight. Let us not take this planet for granted. I do not take tonight for granted.
Thank You So Much!"
We congratulate Leonardo DiCaprio for his amazing speech at the Oscars! Godspeed Leo!
