TV watchers had a lot of options Sunday night, from game 5 of the World Series to a new episode of *The Walking Dead* to Sunday Night Football. These fun entertainment options wouldn't cause anyone to contemplate the end of the world (unless, of course, you think a zombie apocalypse is a viable future scenario or you're a Cleveland sports fan).

But over on [National Geographic](<http://www.nationalgeographic.com/>), famed actor Leonardo DiCaprio was doing just that—starring in a new documentary exploring the impact of [climate change](<https://futurism.com/?s=climate+change>) on our environment and the [disastrous future](<https://futurism.com/category/climate-change-energy>) we face if nothing is done to stymie it.

Directed by Academy Award-winning documentarian Fisher Stevens, "[Before The Flood](<http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/before-the-flood/videos/before-the-flood/>)" chronicles DiCaprio's journey as he interviews climate-change researchers, politicians, and people living in areas already feeling the negative impact of our environmental destruction. “Clean air, water and a livable climate are inalienable human rights,” says DiCaprio, who is a U.N. Messenger of Peace for the Climate. "And solving this crisis is not a question of politics; it is a question of our own survival."

The film is now [streaming in full](<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90CkXVF-Q8M&feature=youtu.be>), so take an hour-and-a-half out of your day to learn more about climate change and what you can do to help protect the planet.
