Leonardo DiCaprio coming to Delhi for a documentary on climate change


Leonardo DiCaprio has already launched conservation projects in 40-odd countries through his foundation. He is not only a billionaire star but also UN messenger of peace on climate change. He will be arriving in Delhi for a documentary on climate change and working with Sunita Narain of Centre for Science and Environment (CSE).
DiCaprio’s question to the world at large is - how much time do we have to find solutions and put them in place before this whole ecosystem collapses.
This has been reported in indianexpress.com dated 14 October 2015.
DiCaprio’s pre-Industrial Revolution period drama The Revenant set in the wilderness of northern Canada is ready for release in December and he with his crew would arrive in Delhi on October 29 for four days. The Ministry of External Affairs has already cleared the application for filming.
Incidentally, Narain is right now away in Johannesburg and has confirmed that they will be in Delhi on 29 and 30th and will come over to CSE for a sit down interview.
The Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation was started in 1998 and its mission was to protect the world’s last wild places. His projects include saving key species like sharks, tigers and elephants and to protect indigenous tribes and communities.
