DiCaprio's environmental talk 'bores' paparazzi into leaving him alone

Leonardo DiCaprio has found the perfect way to avoid the paparazzi by talking about global warming.

The actor, a passionate crusader for the environment, is outspoken about his views on this subject, and on the world’s dependency on fossil fuel.

As the three-time Oscar nominated actor tells the Chicago Sun-Times in an interview, this unfortunately for the paparazzi, doesn’t make for good tabloid material, and so they tend to keep away from him.

"The tabloids and the paparazzi don't care what I have to say about global warming or getting away from dependency on fossil fuels. ... I think I've just bored them into leaving me alone," DiCaprio said.

In the meantime, the actor is getting set to premiere a new Hollywood environmental film, produced and narrated by him in Durban later this month.

The feature-length documentary, The 11th Hour, aims to highlight a wide range of environmental crises caused by human actions and their impact on the Earth.
