While there is a possibility that what you say about Di Caprio is true, there are two problems: 1. You don’t indicate that you have shcked with him about whether he has initiated any green pracdtices in either the construction or use of his home. You should do that before complaining.
2. Your complaint against Di Caprio detracts from two important messages: first, that he has worked hard around the world to spread environmental messages. And second, it detracts from the efforts of Greensburg to be leaders in LEED (envornmental) construction.

My suggestion is that while nobody is perfect, many of us work to improve our green footprint over time. One of our cars is a Prius, but keeping our 1991 Sable until it dies is conserving energy and materials and I’m not going to sell my 1997 van because I only use it to carry lots of people or other special duties. But an overhead camera taking a picture of the van could create the perception that my family didn’t care about the environment. Please be careful who and how you attack; mistakes degrade you.

Hey, hey, hey! Pat Morita is/was a handsome, handsome man. His massive intellect made David- Aw to Hell with it. I don’t even know who David Suzuki is. I just Googled his picture.

Well I guess that makes David Suzuki and Pat Morita smarter and better looking than Leo.

I saw David Suzuki in a movie once. He trained a gawky teenager from New Jersey to kick ass with karate. He eventually beats the bullies that tormented him and wins their respect, and the girl.

What I’m trying to say is he looks just like Pat Morita.

Who does he think he is? David Suzuki? I really hope not, he couldn’t match Suzuki in intelligence or looks!

“I am excited that my production company gets to be a part of a moment in American history where one town has decided to set the example for the green building movement.”

Now, it’s nice that he’s doing something to help a struggling community to rebuild.”

Is his production company actually helping with the rebuilding, or are they just there taking pictures of the rebuilding?
