Text Quotes
I’m a latecomer to the environmental issue, which for years seemed to me like an excuse for more government regulation. But I can see that in rich societies, voters are paying less attention to economic issues and more to issues of the spirit, including the environment  (Environmental Quotes) Moreover, the practical recommendations deduced from ecological principles threaten the vested interests of commerce; it is hardly surprising that the financial and political power created by these investments should be used sometimes to suppress environmental impact studies  (Environmental Quotes) Our environmental problems originate in the hubris of imagining ourselves as the central nervous system or the brain of nature. We’re not the brain, we are a cancer on nature  (Environmental Quotes) Our biggest national security threat is the environmental destruction of our planet and the arms race with ourselves  (Environmental Quotes) I’m sad that it’s uncool or offensive to talk about environmental or human rights issues  (Environmental Quotes) Toxins love to get you while you’re young. Lead, mercury, secondhand smoke and sundry other environmental nasties do a lot more damage when tissue is immature, vulnerable and growing than when it’s mature and comparatively fixed  (Environmental Quotes) People who run environmental groups and things like that, who have to listen to all kinds of nonsense and keep their tempers, are very diplomatic and very inclusive  (Environmental Quotes) Simple determinism, whether of the genetic or environmental kind, is a depressing prospect for those with a fondness for free will  (Environmental Quotes) Marketers... Can’t simply put a more environmentally friendly package on the shelves and assume that shoppers will recognize and appreciate the change. If the goal is to drive preference or justify a price premium, the environmental benefit needs to be conveyed  (Environmental Quotes) The miracle of man is not how far he has sunk but how magnificently he has risen. We are known among the stars by our poems, not our corpses. No creature who began as a mathematical improbability, who was selected through millions of years of unprecedented environmental hardship and change for ruggedness, ruthlessness, cunning, and adaptability, and who in the short ten thousand years of what we may call civilization has achieved such wonders as we find about us, may be regarded as a creature without promise  (Environmental Quotes) We have ignored this cancer for so long that the romance of environmental concern is already fading in the shadow of the grim realities of lakes, rivers and bays where all forms of life have been smothered by untreated wastes, and oceans which no longer provide us with food  (Environmental Quotes) Curing environmental ills requires not a stance outside nature, but a stance within nature, a role not as onlooker without, but as an actor within  (Environmental Quotes) The planetary phase of history has begun, but the future shape of global society remains profoundly uncertain. Though perhaps improbable, a shift toward a planetary civilization of enriched lives, human solidarity, and environmental sustainability is still possible  (Environmental Quotes) I am unapologetic about asking people to connect up their own responsibility for their total environmental footprint and how they decide to procreate and how many children they think are appropriate  (Environmental Quotes) The concept of national sovereignty has been an immutable, indeed sacred, principle of international relations. It is a principle which will yield only slowly and reluctantly to the new imperatives of global environmental cooperation. It is simply not feasible for sovereignty to be exercised unilaterally by individual nation states, however powerful. The global community must be assured of environmental security  (Environmental Quotes) The destruction of aquatic ecosystem health, and the increasing water scarcity, are in my opinion the most pressing environmental problems facing human kind  (Environmental Quotes) The young generation can influence their elders and can make them understand the environmental problems that are faced by us today. The youth can make them see that our environment is deteriorating day by day  (Environmental Quotes) The essential role of the environment is still marginal in discussions about poverty. While we continue to debate these initiatives, environmental degradation, including the loss of biodiversity and topsoil, accelerates, causing development efforts to falter  (Environmental Quotes) Now we see evolutionary trends in a variety of areas ranging from atomic and molecular physics through fluid mechanics, chemistry and biology to large scale systems of relevance in environmental and economic sciences  (Environmental Quotes) Kyoto protocol is not a simple environmental issue, where you can say scientists are not unanimous. This is about international relations, this is about the economy, about trying to create a level playing field for big businesses throughout the world. You have to understand what is at stake, and that is why it is serious,  (Environmental Quotes) We have to understand the ubiquity of energy in everything we do. Energy is core to our economy and it brings with it environmental challenges, and it’s core to our security challenges  (Environmental Quotes) Because of the complexity of the problem, environmental skepticism was once tenable. No longer. It is time to flip from skepticism to activism  (Environmental Quotes) Climate change is not an environmental issue, but much more to do with security and economics  (Environmental Quotes) It is environmental illiteracy and a complete lack of forward thinking to ignore the need to halt and then reverse population growth in the context of climate change, travel congestion, unaffordable housing, and resource depletion  (Environmental Quotes) Turning every business into an environmental industry will involve applying new principles... first, we need to make more with less... second, we need to design out waste... third, we must begin to decarbonise our energy supply  (Environmental Quotes) We have a basic notion that unless we find a solution for environmental problems, we will not achieve sustainable growth in the coming years  (Environmental Quotes) I have come to believe that extracting natural gas from shale using the newish technique called hydrofracking is the environmental issue of our time. And I think you should, too  (Environmental Quotes) It’s about the connecting force from form to form. It’s the toe bone connecting to the shoulder bone. It’s the bacterial kick of life force, something growing out of nothing, forming itself out of something else. Form never stops. And form is always environmental  (Environmental Quotes) We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation  (Environmental Quotes) We should know that only replacing the economics of competition and greed with the economics of equitable cooperation will guarantee a globalization that takes advantage of potential efficiency gains in ways that also promote environmental protection, international equity, economic democracy, and variety  (Environmental Quotes)
