As DailyMail reports, the Hollywood star was spotted in Mexico last Friday with his partner Vittoria Ceretti as he disembarked from his multi-million dollar private jet.

This news caused a furor among his fans, as the Oscar winner is actually known for his commitment to climate protection. A few years ago, for example, he set up the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, which has raised more than 80 million US dollars since its inception.

The organization uses this money to support several projects that deal with sustainability and climate protection.

Fierce forest fires have been raging in California for several days. The flames have even destroyed several celebrity homes in Hollywood.
