WHY EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT THIS DOCU BY LEONARDO DICAPRIO

(and why you want to see it too)

We saw it pop up about three hundred times on Facebook this past weekend: ‘Before the Flood’, the documentary that Leonardo DiCaprio he worked on for years, has finally seen the light of day. The film is about the drastic consequences of climate change. Ho ho little ostrich, don’t just tune out right away.

Talking about (or listening to) the consequences of climate change doesn’t sound particularly sexy, I get you. It’s secretly not something I feel very connected to at first either. Maybe you feel that way too. And that’s precisely the problem according to Leo. “Try to have a conversation with anyone about climate change, people just tune out. And the problem seems to be getting worse and worse and worse…”

To map out the problem in an understandable way, Leo traveled to dozens of places on our planet and spoke with the biggest world leaders like Obama and the Pope. And I can’t help but say: this is an incredible wake-up call. If you’re unsure what kind of Netflix-series to start watching tonight, seriously check out this film. Mandatory viewing from Kiek. A cost that affects us all.

You know what, I’ll make it easy for you. Check out the full film below. Bet you’ll go to bed with a completely different feeling?
