Leonardo DiCaprio has been criticised for taking a private jet from Cannes to New York to pick up an environmental award – before jetting back to Cannes to continue partying.

The actor, who in February used his Oscar acceptance speech to demand greater action to combat climate change, was honoured for his activism in New York on Wednesday.

Along with the designer Ralph Lauren, DiCaprio was given a “Big Fish” award by Riverkeeper, which works to protect New York’s rivers.

I’ll believe there’s an environmental crisis when people who tell me there’s a crisis act like there’s a crisis.

Here is the hypocrite's house in Los Angeles. Doesn't look real carbon friendly does it? Bet he burns more in a month than my house does in two years.

Not only does the hypocrite have a house in L.A. and a PRIVATE ISLAND, he also has a beach house in Malibu, California. Look at the carbon footprint this place has at this link!

I am not against wealth. I am for wealth. What I am AGAINST is these liberals who live so well, but want to tax those of us who are middle class and live modestly within our means....which is what the leftist environmentalist movement REALLY is all about.

Pretty sure he got a sweet deal for some carbon credits from manbearpig. Besides, he only hitched a ride on some one else’s private jet that was headed west anyway. So, it’s a net gain in his estimation. He actually HELPED save the erf by doing that and not chartering his own private jet. See, liblogic at work.

Seems he likes to protect himself behind very high walls... Any guess to how many guards with guns on the premises?
Libs love their spiritual leaders and will turn a blind eye to any hypocrisy, not to mention attacking with tooth and nail any person that points out said hypocrisy.

Sure they do. They aren't stupid.
They simply want what they want, how they want it and when they want it. They PRETEND whatever their agent TELLS them to pretend and since they are ACTORS, they do it well.
Sadly, people TEND to believe those who are handsome/ beautiful and famous.

They are selfish and immature, NOT caring about anyone else but themselves. Hey, they are actors who MUST have a self image the size of Jupiter:

narcissism run amok.

The Rich Young Man
23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is difficult for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
