Eco-Celeb: Leonardo DiCaprio
by on 11.30.04
Leonardo DiCaprio’s been championing environmental causes for quite some time now. His foundation’s website features sections on global warming, sustainability, and other issues, plus a page tracking the ecological record of George W. Bush – not exactly the country’s greenest-ever president. The website points to other organizations for getting involved and informed, too. Even better, DiCaprio believes building earth-consciousness in children is the best way to save the planet, so there’s a site for kids with games and eco-action tips for those young, impressionable minds.

Perhaps if Leo were really that concerned he would pay more attention to the films he is involved with and the companies he works for. In 1998 he was in a film called The Beach that was filmed in Southern Thailand, the construction and demolition that was carried out to make the movie has wreaked havoc on the beaches there, and due to a lack of proper rebuilding the beaches are being destroyed worse now than ever by the regular monsoons that come through the region ...

... and Leo's "Earth-friendly" response to the whole thing: "IT IS BEYOND ME"
en mexico hay muchas fans de leo tal vez todas digan que son sus fans numero uno , pero hay algo epecial que me unio a ti leo,esos ojos tan maraillosos reflejan no a los personajes que interpretas sino a ti mismo al verdadero leo eres unico tu carisma tu caracter tu fisico todo me enamore de ti desde que te vi por primera vez en titanic mi mayor ilusion es conocerte solo quiero que sepas uqe estas en la mente de muchas chavas de mexico cancun y en la mi no solo cupas un lugar enmi pensamiento ocupas un gran lugar e mi corazon
i think you r vary sweet &kind
I'm am from Cape town, South Africa and saw Leo sitting at the table next to me and my boyfriend in one of Cape Towns upper-class restaurants 6 May 2006... He was there with his group of buddies or "bodyguards" and later a group of young woman (girls) joined them. I'm sure there is nothing between him and Lohan, maybe a supermodel?? The group of girls look as if they could've been.
Especially the brunette that he greeted with a kiss.
i think u r so hottttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sexiiiiii the best actor in the world luv u 2 death
As a young teenager, I like many others went through the whole "I love Leo phase". Now that I am much older, I have nothing but the utmost respect and admiration for his involvement in enviromental awareness and sustainability.
I'm glad to see more and more people become aware of the issues that we as a human population are beginning to face. I am a firm believer that we are responsibile for the protection and preservation of earth. I value earth so much that my degrees in Physical Geography and Earth Sciences provide me with first hand knowledge on how much humanity has made an impact on earth. I encourage others to actively take part in your own way. Nothing is too small a task for something so largely important. Thank you to Leonardo and many others who are taking the initiative to vocalize and educate others about these issues.I wish you all continued success and support for the things you believe in.
My mom thinks your so hot! If you ever see her she will steal your heart away!!
My son's name is Leonardo. I gave him that name because I really want to have a cute boy, like you!
You guys are unbelievable. People make mistakes all the time. Leave Leo alone. Stop focusing on all the negative stuff and I don't know whats wrong with you. He's allowed to have fun, enjoy himself jesus. Why don't you go find something else to do INSTEAD of focusing on the Leonardo and MOVE ON. Did you ever think maybe Leo didnt have a say in how things are run in movies or something? You guys are so stupid. Get over it and leave the poor guy alone.
well i think leo is so kind and sweet to care bout this when even our own goverment doesn't care i luv him so much,,, i'm from durban south africa and it's amazing how all his movies have realy spoke to me he's kinda how to mwahh luv u leo don't ever change keep doin wat ur doin!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Leonardo Dicaprio is a fantastic actor and a wonderful person in general. I went through a phase when i thought that he was the hottest guy on the planet and that is all i saw when i looked at a picture of him or heard his name. I have to admit that i still think that he is hot but i see so much more now. I have deep admiration for him and I too understand his passion to save the earth. He is an awsome person, i am glad to see that a superstar such as he uses his fame to help save our earth. I also would like to add that he is a very talented actor who needs to be recognized. Over the past decade, he has created phenominal movies and still has not received an oscar. He truly has a talent that should not be overlooked at the academy awards. I hope that he wins for best actor this year. I also want to say thank you to he, other celebrities, and everyone else who uses their resources to help conserve our beautiful earth.
ok it is good leonardo is a person who do also a good things i like it and i whish a good life espechelly hi can cuntiniou in his best films
leo is so handsome and kills ones heart u r heart killer
i am so crazy of u so be careful
hot and sexy guy
I think that Leo is a great actor. One of the greatest of our generation! It helps that he is really handsome but that will only take you so far. He has proved that he is so mutch more than just a pretty face, that he has an amazing talent! It is so easy to get caught up in yourself when you are that famous, I knew that I would, but Leo cares about the environment and the people around him and that shows in his work.
first off let me say that leo is one of the sexiest males alive! He's also an amazing actor, he was amazing in "the departed" and i can't wait to see "blood diamond". He seems like such a sweet heart, adni admire that he's using his fame to help save our earth! LEO YOU'RE AWSOME, AND SO SO SO SO SO SO SEXY!
i love you LEO!!!
LEONARDO DICAPRIO IS THE BEST!!!
Shave the mustache, dude!!! You would be so much hotter if you did. Please?

Just because Dicaprio made a movie 8 years ago doesn't mean anything. Maybe he became more aware of the problem after the fact. Maybe he didn't really know the facts until 5 years ago. Atleast he is making a stand now, that's more than I can say for 85 to 95 percent of the World. He founded an organization that allows others to express their concerns and to make a difference.
