Leonardo DiCaprio has finally won an Oscar but he has talked about quitting acting.

 

The actor, who is passionate about the environment and the dangers of global warming, said he is considering leaving Hollywood for good to look out for the planet. He also talked about whether or not to have kids with the current condition of our planet. 

 

He said: “Do you mean do I want to bring children into a world like this?”

“If it happens, it happens. I’d prefer not to get into specifics about it, just because then it becomes something that’s misquoted. But, yeah. I don’t know. To articulate how I feel about it is just gonna be misunderstood.”

 

“I had a friend say, ‘Well, if you’re really this passionate about environmentalism, quit acting.

 

“But you soon realise that one hand shakes the other, and being an artist gives you a platform.

 

"Not that necessarily people will take anything that I say seriously, but it gives you a voice.”
