Actor Leonardo DiCaprio’s nonprofit organization awarded grants to a dark money group that funneled the funds to a law firm filing lawsuits against oil companies alleging climate change deception, according to reports. Dan Emmett, a major philanthropist, and Ann Carlson, a climate change professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, collaborated with the law firm Sher Edling to sue oil companies for releasing inaccurate information about their environmental impact, according to emails obtained by Fox News. In the messages, which were sent in 2017, the pair discussed requests for support from Chuck Savitt, the law firm’s director of strategic client relationships.
