Yes! It finally happened!
After five snubs from the Academy, Leo finally bagged the golden guy playing
Hugh Glass in The Revenant!
Leo also uses his acceptance
speech to preach about climate change! Now that is how you really promote you
advocacy! Thank you Leo and Congratulations!!!
“And lastly I just want to say
this: Making ‘The Revenant’ was about man's relationship to the natural world.
A world that we collectively felt in 2015 as the hottest year in recorded
history. Our production needed to move to the southern tip of this planet just
to be able to find snow. Climate change is real, it is happening right now. It
is the most urgent threat facing our entire species, and we need to work
collectively together and stop procrastinating. We need to support leaders
around the world who do not speak for the big polluters, but who speak for all
of humanity, for the indigenous people of the world, for the billions and
billions of underprivileged people out there who would be most affected by
this. For our children’s children, and for those people out there whose voices
have been drowned out by the politics of greed. I thank you all for this
amazing award tonight. Let us not take this planet for granted. I do not take
tonight for granted. Thank you so very much.”
