“Our world leaders are here in Paris in an effort to finalize a global agreement 20 years in the making, to finally address the very real threat that climate change poses to our planet...

This time must be different, because we are fundamentally running out of time.”
“Climate change is the most fundamental and existential threat to our species. The consequences are unthinkable and worse, it has the potential to make our planet unlivable.”
Mr. DiCaprio spoke to a gathering of global mayors as a spokesman for a movement to urge pension funds and other asset managers to divest from the coal, oil and gas industries.
“Our future will hold greater prosperity and justice when we are free from the grip of fossil fuels,” he told the mayors. “Now to get there, we must act. We must finally leave behind the inefficient technologies of another century and the business models that they have created.”
