No organism outstrips it’s resources and the planet does not exact a remedy. We often think that we are immune and that acts of nature are just random as opposed to signs environmental stress. But every day, if we observe , if we listen it becomes evident that this not the case. Our planet is desperately seeking to remedy itself of our abuses.

When I began to let in the devastating reality of human induced Climate change, I found myself mourning for the future. It’s heavy… But this enormous weight of grief is simultaneously opening me up to a deep love of life as well as the extreme emergency of this moment. We have no idea if we are going to make it out of this crisis, but I have enormous faith in our human potential to respond and take action for the sake of all life on earth.

“While the climate crisis effects us all, one of the biggest concerns I have is the disproportionate impact it has on indigenous communities worldwide, who are absolutely on the front line of the crisis. Forest fires, extreme flooding, land erosion and devastating storms threaten their homes, food supplies, medicinal resources and ultimately their very existence”.

“People need stories to aide us in understanding a reality that can be difficult to parse. The environmental crisis is such a reality, and is asking us to consider how we organize around every aspect of our lives; certainly land use and energy production, but also what means through which we communicate and are entertained. The stories we tell for the next twenty years, as well as the progress we make in refining the process we use to tell them, will determine and help to define our fate”.

“What are we doing? It’d be one thing if we didn’t know… but we do. If leaders won’t lead, it’s up to us. Change it. One light switch, one water tap, one less drive, one more walk, one more native plant.”

“Climate Change is REAL. Our planet is burning. It’s time to face the fact that WE have created an existential threat to our planet, and we need to support leaders in politics, education and industry who truly believe in science and who speak for ALL mankind”.

“It’s always made sense to me to try to avoid burning down your own house. Having a thirteen year old daughter has only increased my desire to defend the one we all share.”

“It has been extremely disturbing to watch climate scientists - and indeed science in general - be vilified by large sections of the world population over the last twenty years. And it is sickening to know that all of this “climate skepticism” is being driven by large corporations with a profit-driven motivation to keep on polluting. Just as tobacco companies once pushed back against the medical discovery that smoking was terrible for the human body, corporations who rely on spewing out greenhouse gases are now spending a fortune to make sure there is doubt about climate change. As the father of three young children who will walk out into the world we give them, I hope that reason and sanity win the day over greed and we can build a more responsible and caring world.”

“Doesn’t matter if you are Red or Blue or Purple; we can all be Green.
If you care about immigration — extreme weather conditions will only lead to more desperation and displacement. If you care about poverty and famine — storms/droughts cause food shortages, disease, and loss of homes. If you care about income inequality — climate change exacerbates opportunity inequity as the wealthy can shield themselves from the worst of environmental damage. As we speak, there are parts of the world where the wealthy and ruling elite send their children to preschools with domes of purified air while public school children breathe in poison.
Environmental sustainability is imperative for any issue you care about. It is our most fundamental treasure and right.”
