A carbon-neutral future is the only way we will inherit a planet capable of sustaining life on Earth as we know it
Actor and activist Leonardo DiCaprio appeared Saturday at the MSNBC-broadcast Global Citizens Festival, where he inveighed against President Trump, and critics of the youth climate activist movement.
The Titanic star said leaders like President Trump are gambling away our future.
Our leaders, those whom we entrust to protect us and set the example, are either failing to stop these dangerous trends or, in some cases, denying the very science of this climate catastrophe," DiCaprio said in an obvious dig at Trump.
DiCaprio said that unless the entire world goes carbon neutral, all life on planet Earth will die.
"And make no mistake, our scientific communities has already spoken: The facts are clear. Unless you live in an alternate reality, theres no more time for denial, DiCaprio said. A carbon-neutral future is the only way we will inherit a planet capable of sustaining life on Earth as we know it."
The actor also had words for critics of Greta Thunbergs Climate Strike movement.
"While our leaders continue to deny the science, I can tell you one thing for certain the youth is not, DiCaprio said. "Last Friday young people led the world in strike. Millions of brave individuals did more than simply walk out of their schools and places of employment, they took a stand. They set an example of true leadership that we so desperately need right now.
Yet surprisingly, he said, some have reacted to this movement with insulting Tweets and negative talking points. Individuals that seem to care more about profit and their own self-interests than about your future.
But this Climate Strike movement, DiCaprio said, is more important and crucial than at any time in human history.

DeCrapio is truly one of the Hollyweird elite. So pay attention when this little shit speaks. With the remedy the lunatics want to impose on us we won't have to go to movie theatres to watch their propagandist movies. No electricity.
Too many humans on Earth, so begin whittling down the numbers starting with Hollyweird first.
