“The climate crisis, the primary existential issue of our time, allows for remarkable possibilities enfolded in solutions.”

“The time to address climate change is today. (It was actually yesterday but here we are.) The steps individuals can take towards being part of the solution are utterly doable; the steps corporations can take towards a solution are imperative. Not only do we owe a healthy planet to our children, we owe it to the memory of those that have come before us.”

“When people refuse to accept the fact that climate change is real, I remind them that it’s raining ashes in Los Angeles.”

“These last months of collective quarantine have given us a glimpse of the world without us: the sky is clear again, the birds are singing more, the earth is rumbling less with billions of vehicles taken off the roads. For too long, we’ve been the main, and sometimes the only character of our own play. Let us seize this moment and make lasting and permanent environmental changes that allow us to live in harmony with our world. Let’s define a new and sustainable normal.”

"The climate crisis is an urgent “macro” issue; it supersedes, encompasses, and effects nearly all other issues we face. We know the facts, we understand the solutions, now we need to act on them."

“The facts are hard to face but we cannot delay facing them and taking action. People of color are disproportionately effected by climate change because of the effects of systemic racism. So if you believe BLACK LIVES MATTER add CLIMATE ADVOCACY to your list of TRUTHS TO FACE AND TAKE ACTION ON.”

“There’s no better description of my feelings on the topic than this quote: “We have lived our lives by the assumption that what was good for us would be good for the world. We must change our lives so that it will be possible to live by the contrary assumption, that what is good for the world will be good for us. And that requires that we make the effort to know the world and learn what is good for it.”” - Wendell Berry

“Human activities are causing climate change. We must change to slow it down.”

“Climate change intersects with issues of gender equality. Women especially should be educating themselves about the climate crisis because of its disproportionate impact on women around the world. Together we can all work to transform systems by educating ourselves about the climate crisis and calling others to action. Devote yourselves to saving this beautiful planet, and improving the lives of all that inhabit it.”

“To deny climate change now in the face of such clear evidence is the epitome of self destruction.”

“I refuse to try to persuade anyone that climate change is real. I refuse because in so doing I am giving credence and power to the wave of, “what do they know”, “it just snowed so how can there be global warming”, “I’m tired of having to listen to scientists and experts” - anti-intellectual arrogance and ignorance that has gained more prominence the worse our planet’s health has become. I refuse to engage with people who only function in terms of money and their own, privileged status quo. But I do, so hugely, exhort you to become more active and find out what you can to do to help. We can do so much better and all is not lost. “

“The economic consequences of ignoring the climate crisis are staggering. Economic losses from extreme weather totaled $653 billion over the past two years alone. Will solving the crisis be easy? No, but things that are worth doing rarely are. In the long run, doing the hard work of solving the climate challenge, is the only option that makes any sense.”

“Instead of using this time to educate us on how to heal and rebalance the earth, our government has continued rolling back much needed protection for the environment. Without these laws in place we will continue to struggle with the devastating reality that we face as a global community.”
