Leonardo DiCaprio fumes over trash on Greek seabed
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Leonardo DiCaprio was in Greece and specifically on Paros for his summer vacation.
However, known for his environmental concerns, the Oscar-winning actor chose to send his own message on trash that floods Greek beaches through Instagram.
Specifically, DiCaprio chose to republish an Al Jajeera video showing an environmental organization cleaning up all sorts of trash from the bottom of Andros on his personal account.
Leonardo DiCaprio wrote in his post:
"Plastic bags and toilet seats. Hundreds of discarded fishing nets. All of this was stuck to the seabed of Greece’s Andros island. Volunteers collected over 660 lbs of plastic waste. But some say the microplastics leave an invisible imprint on the environment and even ourselves. They can be consumed by fish that then become a part of our diet. "
