Leonardo DiCaprio brought awareness to the Amazon fires on Instagram only to get dissed by… Lindsay Lohan.
Leonardo DiCaprio‘s Instagram is filled with posts bringing awareness to climate change, so naturally he brought attention to the fires currently destroying the Amazon rainforest. “Terrifying to think that the Amazon is the largest rain forest on the planet, creating 20% of the earth’s oxygen, basically the lungs of the world, has been on fire and burning for the last 16 days running, with literally NO media coverage whatsoever! Why?” he captioned a photo of smoke pluming from tree tops.
Leo had a valid point – more people need to be aware of the devastation that’s occurring and how it impacts our lives and environment. But he wasn’t without criticism for calling attention to this issue. Lindsay Lohan jumped into the comments section to question the Titanic star.
“How can we fix it? Actions speak louder than words my friend,” Lindsay commented, as Comments by Celebs pointed out. That, too, was a valid point! Just talking about the issues doesn’t inherently resolve them – but it is a start.
Leo must have taken Lindsay’s comment to heart, because he followed up with another post about things people can do to help. His list includes:
- “As an emergency response, donate to frontline Amazon groups working to defend the forest.
- “Consider becoming a regular supporter of the Rainforest Alliance’s community forestry initiatives across the world’s most vulnerable tropical forests, including the Amazon; this approach is by far the most effective defense against deforestation and natural forest fires, but it requires deep, long-term collaboration between the communities and the public and private sectors.

- “Stay on top of this story and keep sharing posts, tagging news agencies and influencers.
- “Be a conscious consumer, taking care to support companies committed to responsible supply chains. Eliminate or reduce consumption of beef; cattle ranching is one of the primary drivers of Amazon deforestation.
- “When election time comes, VOTE for leaders who understand the urgency of our climate crisis and are willing to take bold action—including strong governance and forward-thinking policy.”
