It is a pride for Cubans that the prestigious American actor praises the work of us Cubans with the care and protection of the environment.

A new protected area in Cuba is home to critically endangered migratory bird routes and hawksbill turtles. This latest conservation success takes Cuba to 28.5% protection of its marine continental shelf, said the famous actor on his official Twitter account.

Di Caprio, star of films such as Titanic, The Aviator, and The Wolf of Wall Street, has developed a strong social activism in favor of biodiversity, the protection of forests and oceans, and against climate change.

Winner of an Oscar for Best Leading Actor in 2016 for the film El Renacido, by Alejandro González Iñárritu, the actor frequently publishes news on his social networks related to his activism in favor of the planet and other topics on campaigns for environmental protection.

Nominated on six other occasions for the American Film Academy Awards, Di Caprio visited Cuba in the context of the reestablishment of diplomatic relations between Havana and Washington in 2016, when stars such as Mick Jagger, Beyoncé, Jay- Z and Katy Perry.

Last year the actor announced a donation of $43 million dollars for ecological restoration projects in the Galapagos Islands and the launch of the environmental organization Re:wild, with the aim of protecting wildlife and restoring biodiversity. The organization created it together with a group of experts in environmental conservation projects.

DiCaprio has been making headlines for several weeks for his leading role in the film Don't Look Up, a satire film in which he plays a scientist who tries to save the Earth from the imminent fall of a meteorite but runs into the wall of ignorance and the commercial interests of the powerful groups. The film stars alongside actress Jennifer Lawrence, who plays a seasoned astronomy student.
