Leonardo DiCaprio has confidence.
In an Instagram post on Jan. 25, the
Wolf of Wall Street
actor
plastered the phrase, "
President Biden: you can be the climate leader we need
"
in a big white and green letter
.
Very concerned about the environmental crisis, the actor has a foundation, the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, whose mission is to find solutions to reduce pollution and global warming.

"
Humanity from the edge of the cliff
"

" the climate of the President "
who has distanced humanity from the edge of the cliff

the greatest economic opportunity
