[See NewsBusters for more.] Movie star Leonardo DiCaprio went into full climate panic on Thursday. Appearing on PBS’s Charlie Rose, he speculated as to weather it’s “too late” to save the planet from the ravages of global warming. Reflecting on last year’s climate conference in Paris, the jet-setting actor pontificated, “The big question is are we too late? That's been the pondering question for everyone. I know we should all remain optimistic and I want to remain optimistic.”  DiCaprio insisted, “But we do know that the scientific community has been screaming out loud for decades. And other interests have stifled their voice and manipulated this conversation.” Rose did not question whether the environmentalist is a hypocrite for taking a carbon-emitting private jet six times in six weeks.
