Leo DiCaprio Wants to Give You a Green Card

Leonardo DiCaprio brought his mission to Hong Kong yesterday to introduce the HSBC green credit card and his documentary The 11th Hour. The card is made of environmentally friendly materials, uses only digital bills to cut down on paper waste, and donates to a green charity for every transaction. Of course, saving the world is a huge part of Leo's life these days, which he happily admitted when talking about his two great passions in life: "acting and being an environmental activist." He also went on to say what it was like meeting with the "great environmental minds of our time" and the responsibility our generation has to help the earth — check out the video after the jump. While it may seem like it's all about beach vacations with his hot model girlfriend for Leo, he's also got a big old heart and his head in the right place.

    He looks awesome and I love him to pieces! But his message is much more important. May the world listen to him!

    So nice to see skinny-fat bulbous faced Leo. Just when I was starting to feel badily about myself, all I had to do was look at his face and all the sudden, I feel better about my appearance. Thanks Leo! I appreciate the boost. Obviously I could look much worse.

    Pffft...Bitter much?! lol

    Nah, most importantly, his message is awesome. I love to see celebrities actually use their clout to make a difference and spread such an immensely important message. Plus, he looks great. Always has. Always will. Anyone with eyes knows that.

    I got a letter from Leo the other day (as did everyone else who donated to the Natural Resources Defense Council). It was oddly exhilarating.

    I love what he's doing for Mother Nature and all, but he just doesn't seem that physically appealing anymore.

    in terms of looks, that guy can't hold the jockstrap of many of hollywoods leading men, some even 10-15 years his senior. i like him as an actor and activist, but his days of being good looking are far behind him. i can't believe how poorly he has aged. give me pitt, clooney, jake g., javier, judd law, etc. over leo any day.

    Leo looks good to me...what ya'll smokin? I hate this haircut, but hell look at him in Blood Diamond or in The Departed...BEAUTIFUL...anyways...he's a hell of a great actor and he's a good person. And he loves his Mom. People try to hate on Leo because of his green-ness, and to that I ask, what's wrong with helping the earth out? It gives us everything and sustains us and we've trashed it, so he's using his fame and money to encourage and educate...Paris Hilton strips in big champagne glasses and drives around drunk...and we've seen her cooter. I'm thinking all the Leo-haters should find something else positive to be passionate about.

    PS I've been a huge Leo-phile for almost 15 years and he's never let me down..he's a good boy.

    Leo got a nice idea. Just like recycling products. Leo shows that he loves nature. There few men who are concern of our nature especially celebrities. It's good that they got one and that's Leonardo DiCaprio. If I were the girlfriend of Leo, I would be proud of him. Great job Leo. God bless and more power.
