    I think it's fantastic. Well worth a listen.

    All proceeds go to the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation for Climate Change.

    That's a truly hideous song.

    I'd rather listen to Attenborough talk about it.

    This lot don't give a **** about climate change. They just want to be seen to be giving a ****. Wonder how big their carbon footprints are?

    One or two might care, but I agree more likely to be about self-promotion.

    Never heard of most of them. Probably says more about me though...

    Coming from peopke who have a larger carbon footprint, or whatever it is these days, than 99.9999%* of the population. I will leave it thanks.

    For most of them, you're probably right. However, Leo DiCaprio has raised over $100 million for the cause.

    This isn't about individual carbon footprints, though.

    This is about raising awareness for a concerted shift in the way that everyone thinks about the planet. Perhaps they do just want to be seen to be making an effort, but just by being involved with the song, they are doing something and will bring millions to the campaign, who perhaps wouldn't otherwise have seen it.

    Leo definitely is authentic about it I'd say. He was the main reason I turned vegetarian 5 years back after watching Cowspiracy which I believe he funded and executive produced. The environmental impact of meat eating is V scary

    Wait, so they do cartoon characters and get artists that kids listen to (grande/Bieber...etc) and then put copious amounts of swears in it.

    Please, kids hear a lot worse at school.

    It's not aimed at kids anyway, from what I can see.
    Seems to be aimed at the South park/Family Guy/Rick and Morty crowd.

    I think his carbon footprint is the biggest of the lot. Takes private jets to attend award ceremonies picking up a prize for being environmentally aware. You couldn't make it up.

    Vile fuckwits Geldof and Bono have missed a trick though.

    Stop breeding. Less people equals less resources used...
