Do What Leonardo DiCaprio Says: Vote (the Environment)!

Our favorite environmentally-friendly Titanic Star, Leonardo DiCaprio, is the force behind the recent (ironic) “Don’t Vote” PSAs starring Eva Longoria, Dustin Hoffman, Ellen, Ashton Kutcher and more!

With Election Day less than 24 hours away, Leo wants you to know that now is your chance to vote (the environment).

Patagonia has been running a Vote the Environment campaign, with environmental score cards of different candidates, polling place information and environmental election t-shirts.

With so many environmental issues at play this election — from Hayden Panettiere’s campaign to Save the Whales to Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin agreeing that helicopter hunting is “lots of fun” in a prank call that she believed was a conversation with French President Sarkozy — you can be passionate about whatever issue hits home for you.
