Leonardo DiCaprio's Climate Change Documentary 'Before the Flood' Streaming For Free This Sunday

We all know Leonardo DiCaprio for being one of the greatest actors of all time, in movies like Titanic, Catch Me If You Can, Django Unchained, and The Wolf of Wall Street, to name a few. But for the past three years, DiCaprio has been putting his time towards investigating one of the world's biggest problems today: Climate Change.

This Sunday, October 30th at 9 pm on the National Geographic Channel, DiCaprio's Before the Flood documentary will be available to stream for free as well as on YouTube, Facebook, Hulu, and Twitter. Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UGsRcxaSAI

Through this film, he is trying to make an effort for more people around the world to be aware of how bad it is and to debunk those that don't believe in climate change. He explains that the U.S. is the biggest emitter of greenhouse emissions, and many places in Asia are permanently covered in fog due to extreme air pollution. In it, he meets with world leaders and the Pope. He also meets with Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, and talks about what it would take to convert the whole world to clean energy.

The film reveals that a lot of what is being done in regards to stopping climate change or making it worse comes down to politics. One man in the film trailer said that “Politicians do what the people want them to do. Once the American people are convinced, the politicians will fall in line." So if enough people demand change, change will happen.

This film is a great chance to learn about the extent of the damage we have done, what can possibly be done to fix it, and to inspire people to take action.

Just tell your friends Leonardo DiCaprio is in it, and that it's produced by Martin Scorsese, and they won't be able to say no.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
