Is this a real battle to save the planet or just
a trend with an expiration date?
or

• There are many answers but the fact remains
  Hollywood actively participates in the universal
  effort to combat climate change.

• Maybe it is just a ploy to attract more
  attention
• Maybe it is because they have come to realize
  that this battle cant be postponed anymore...

Lets see what he suggests

• We shouldnt cut trees for no reason and we
  shouldnt destroy forests, especially the
  mountain ones. Because if we do, rain will be
  scarce and rockslides more frequent. We will die
  of hunger and thirst. The problem is that
  people arent aware of this problem and are
  ignorant

...Also....

• We are going to be very disappointed as a
  society if we keep on like this and do nothing
  about our future. At the end of the day we will
  have changed our way of life and the way we use
  oil We are trying to show this country and the
  whole world a good example.

Its Oscar time!

• Many celebrities, including of course Leonardo
  DiCaprio, arrived at this years award show in
  hybrid cars. The Kodak theater where the event
  took place functioned on an energy efficiency
  plan. Furthermore, recycled paper was used for
  invitations, ballots, envelopes and certificates.
  Also a comprehensive recycling system was set up
  for the waste generated by the event. Even the
  food was green! The menu for the Governors'
  Ball featured organic and environmentally
  friendly food, with leftovers donated to Angel
  Harvest, a nonprofit organization that delivers
  perishable food to emergency feeding programs
  throughout Los Angeles.
• So thanks to DiCaprio and his peers all of
  Hollywood has gone green
