 The latest movie of Leonardo DiCaprio is a very nice satire on what can happen to the world if a selfish leader combines with a selfish businesses person. While I don't find a strong relation with anyone in real life, I like the way some points are raised in the movie. The correlation between the on going issue "Global Warming" with the Comet is uncanny.  Its a known fact that many leaders across the world are neglecting basic issues like "Global Warming", "Deforestation" and "Preserving Environment".

Simply put, for some people blaming someone else for their failure has become the easiest way to justify their failure. The unfortunate thing is, they use this tactic to even comfort themselves.
