Leonardo Di Caprio hizo una millonaria donación para salvar el Amazonas

El actor siempre estuvo involucrado en la lucha para cuidar el medio ambiente y creó la fundación “Amazon Forest Found”.

La fundación Earth Alliance, creada por Leonardo DiCaprio, donará 5 millones de dólares para ayudar a salvar el Amazonas luego de los incendios. Además, creó Amazon Forest Found, una organización que estará focalizada en combatir los destrozos de la selva tropical.

El actor hizo todos los anuncios a través de su cuenta de instagram. “Amazon Forest Fourd se enfoca en ayudar a comunidades indígenas y otros locales que trabajan para proteger la biodiversidad y la sostenibilidad de la vida en la región“, escribió Leo en sus redes.

Además de la enorme donación por parte del actor, la organización abrió un fondo para que el que quiera pueda colaborar con el cuidado del Amazonas, llamado el “pulmón del mundo”. “El 100% de tu donación estará destinado a las personas que están trabajando sobre el terreno para proteger el Amazonas“, anunció el actor.

#Regram #RG @chamiltonjames The real heroes of fires are of course the firefighters. In the Amazon they often work with nothing but machetes and leaf blowers and small tanks of fire suppressant. I worked with a troop of them in eastern Brazil back in 2017. It was tough hot and at times hopeless work. Some of them were Guajajara tribesmen who had dedicated their lives to protecting what was left of their ancestral forests – most had already been logged and burned. Some of them had been murdered for trying. It was brutal and tragic and we should all bow down to them for what they do – for so little money that they have to roll cigarettes with writing paper.
