It's a Chinook, Leo": DiCaprio's shocking climate experience during 'The Revenant' roundly mocked by Albertans
It would be hilarious, if the star of The Revenant wasn't also the head of a multimillion-dollar environmental lobby group, the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, and a producer of documentaries on climate change.
Of course, that's like getting a sunburn in the Sahara Desert and directly linking your red skin to ozone depletion.
DiCaprio's overall climate concern may be valid, but the example cited makes him look like a complete idiot — especially for anyone who's ever heard of a chinook.

What a dummy.
Leo said he "endured two unprecedented weather events" :laugh:
With temperature shifts of up to 30C in a matter of hours very common, chinook winds and their hallmark arch are anything but a cause for dread, unless you're migraine-prone and sensitive to pressure changes.
Last winter was actually pretty ordinary, as chinooks go.
Rather than terrified, southern Albertans have celebrated the breezy break from the cold for centuries — just as long as people have lived east of the Rocky Mountains, it seems.
When I read such stupidity I think this statement is people who have never been to Calgary or someone played a big prank on this Hollywood fool.
The ladies I work with were talking about this today..
We think someone was kidding with him about Calgary's chinooks and he fell for it.
You have to remember something about most of these "celebutards", especially the ones like DiCrapario. They started basically very young in the entertainment business and never really pursued a serious education. They live and operate in that insular, vapid, world know as Hollyweird, where spending any significant amount of time, twists your mind into mush. The only reason they are able to make noise, politically and socially, is because 1.)....they have money, 2.)....they have high profile names and most of all.....3.) an insatiable ego.

As laughingly ignorant as what he said was, do not expect him to withdraw it. He will get away with making absurd claims because he is an actor and he supports climate change hysteria.
People like him should be extensively and publicly mocked.
Hands up all those who take the utterings of these idiots seriously?
That's what I thought.
BTW, I thought a Chinook was a helicopter??

It's a salmon.
Stupid Australian.
Well, this salmon FLIES!

Celebrities can get away with being dumb.
I remember a 24 hr period in Lethbridge. It was 45 F below zero when a Chinook came in at very high speed. In less than 24 hrs, it went to 55F above
100 fricken degrees change ... that's "real" degrees I'm talkin about :wink:
Streets and walks became deadly rapidly - hard smooth slippery ice covered with fast running water and wind that pushed people and even some cars down the street until they hit something fixed to the ground ,, like watching a slow motion train wreck while hanging tight onto a hydro pole

DiCaprio could fix that with a big carbon tax. :laugh3:
LOL, Yes. Unfortunately there was no carbon tax in those days. Thank god the problem will be fixed soon

The people of Lethbridge will be so pleased to know that when the extreme cold sets in it will stay there uninterrupted until April. All it took was a climate expert like Dicaprio to save them the horror of winter cold breaks. :laugh3:

And he has been RW..
I hope people donate to their local food bank, Salvation Army or homeless shelter instead of the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation.
Too bad for Leo DiCapitate. He isn't an American well-schooled in Chinooks as I am, thank you very much. ac_biggrin

If you ask Leonardo Dicaprio he will likely say he witnessed climate change first hand when riding in one.

Like all celebutards he's not well schooled in anything.

Don't laugh RW. Some people take stupid actors so seriously they would believe it.

Being such a famous international actor too, means his vacuous words have global appeal.
His hypocrisy is what he deserves an Oscar for.

Not to mention the resources that would have gone into making that movie!!!
The transport overheads alone would choke a city.
I saw his silliness on the web. It is hilarious . These Hollywood wannabe know it all twits have their heads up their rears
When I lived in Lethbridge, we had it go from -40 F to +40F in less than 24 hrs.
Streets and walks were deadly with fast running water over shear smoothed ice ..... The ice under the running water was so slick that stopped cars with brakes on were being pushed by by the wind

Lethbridge is Western Canada's windy city..
We get Chinooks too, but not like Lethbridge..
One thing you will never see there is a clothesline.

That's true

That movie he won the Oscar for produced a helluva lot of emissions.

I know, isn't that wild? But you know what though ceec, those Chinook winds suck despite eating the snow.

I have been in Calgary, but not in the winter. I wanted to experience catastrophic climate change just like Leo did, so I too could give a speech at Davos. :laugh3:
