We ultimately have to look at these situations from a longer-term "net" perspective: Yes, DiCap flying private to a climate conference isn't great for the environment, but his appearance at the conference may be the reason a private company/head of state decides to implement a large-scale initiative.

 

Disagree. If you want to change the world, start by your own actions. He had no reason at all to take a private jet.

Psssss....all millionaires who claim to care about social issues are hypocrites because they have a disproportionate and unnecessary amount of wealth and if they really cared about labor and poverty and environment they would never have accumulated such wealth or would have divested it by now. You can't be a wealthy revolutionary. You're the bourgeoisie 

Except gaga of course

hm yeah ive always noticed that about him, always going on yachst and they are so polluting. and the problem with the environnement has to be solved by people on top. So really i dont think it's of any use to talk to us, don't talk to me or a cleaner, a plumber, a school teacher, im sorry but we dont have the power, we have the power maybe to go on strike but let's be real who is going to go on strike for the environnement unless it's at the brink of death? i cant see major strikes in every country about this unless we are at the end. talk to the leaders, talk to them, it's them, it's not us, tell them, and then stop going on your private jets and yachts if you wanna preach about it. you are polluting, A LOT. don't tell us we need to stop using straws or we kill the turtles, it's YOU. YOU are responsible, we are the breadcrumbs of the rules you create, go tell the ones making the rules and in power of all of this, to stop. then maybe it'll go somewhere...

Leo can't exactly fly with a commercial airline, it's probably an insurance risk for both his team and the airline.

Edit: He could have stayed home

We can manage our carbon footprints innany way possible, but it's only a form of micromanagement while businesses and ruch people turn the other cheek to their profits.

Honestly most humans are hypocrites and dont hold integrity to all their beliefs all the time. Were imperfect and fail and make poor decisions like all the time

 

If this is the first time hes being caught with a major contradiction id say hes not being as much of a hyocrite in general and hes being slammed to be

 

Plus celebs always exagerate their wokeness for their image. We been knew

At least he used his voice, platform and Oscar speech to talk about this. I'm sure at least some people changed their minds about it.

I feel like he's called out for this every year, but he doesn't seem to care and then everyone just forgets about it :enigma:

Omg rich people have yachts :shocked:

Omg the people who preach the principles/ issues that are trendy at that moment aren’t actually passionate about said principle/ issue and just do it for public approval :shocked:

Omg we shouldn’t base our principles off of what ultra-rich, detached-from-reality people believe :shocked:

Ok, but does this invalidate his message though?

It's like a meth addict warning you to not get addicted to meth. Sure, he's not "the ideal person" to talk about it, but he's got a point. And it's not like he's just scolding us all, common citizens, for the environmentally unfriendly things we do, he's actually taking the message to governments and big media, which is what's really important at the end of the day.

Do I wish humans weren't hypocrites? Yes. Do their actions invalidate their points? No. It's like they say: "do as I say, don't do as I do".
