Seems the Wolf of Wall Street has a few economic ideas for halting climate change. In a new documentary called “Carbon,” released online Wednesday, narrator Leonardo DiCaprio contends that trillions of dollars’ worth of fossil fuels are awaiting commercial extraction from the ground — and that if we burn them, our planet is toast.

Of course the worst three ‘Star War’ films (1-3) made big money too.

I honestly don’t understand where people are getting this ‘DiCrapio is a great actor’ nonsense.

I spelled it that way by accident, lol.
dyslexic serendipity. Ha.
Well.......bye.
