Text Quotes
The record-breaking extreme weather events causing chaos across the globe should be a wake-up call. The transition to a low-carbon economy will be much more painful if we wait until there is a climate crisis before recognising that more than half of the world’s fossil fuel reserves will have to remain in the ground  (Extreme Weather Quotes) East and Gulf Coast states are at risk of hurricanes; prairie and other central and southern states are constantly threatened by tornados; and western states commonly face damaging droughts. Extreme weather does not discriminate by American geography.  (Extreme Weather Quotes) The threat from extreme weather events highlights the importance of investing in preparedness  (Extreme Weather Quotes) The federal government is starting to plan for climate change by making extended forecasts that can help people plan for extreme weather - because what can go wrong when you combine the efficiency of government with the accuracy of weathermen?  (Extreme Weather Quotes) The report falsely asserts that global warming is causing more extreme weather events, more droughts, more record high temperatures, more wildfires, warmer winters, etc., when each and every one of these false assertions is contradicted by objective, verifiable evidence.  (Extreme Weather Quotes) It’s false. There is absolutely no evidence that extreme weather events are on the increase. None. The argument that more and more dollar damages accrue is a reflection of the greater amount of wealth we’ve created.  (Extreme Weather Quotes) The increasing frequency of extreme weather events, droughts and floods is in line with what climate scientists have been predicting for decades - and evidence is mounting that what’s happening is more severe than predicted, and will get far worse still if we fail to act.  (Extreme Weather Quotes) I’ve been producing documentaries on global warming for 20 years and have seen the early warnings of extreme weather events come true.  (Extreme Weather Quotes) Now, here’s a good question: should serious people focus on global political instability - terrorism, failing states, nuclear weapons - or should we focus on global climate instability - droughts, floods, extreme weather? Here’s the correct answer: yes, both, because climate disruption will make every other national security problem worse  (Extreme Weather Quotes) Our climate is changing. And while the increase in extreme weather we have experienced in New York City and around the world may or may not be the result of it, the risk that it may be - given the devastation it is wreaking - should be enough to compel all elected leaders to take immediate action  (Extreme Weather Quotes) I can say I won a Senior British Open at Turnberry. I think that’s the best thing about it, the whole week, was playing this course. It’s a challenging, very tough course, under extreme weather. But you know, it’s nice to win any event  (Extreme Weather Quotes) Humanity is sitting on a time bomb. If the vast majority of the world’s scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet’s climate system into a tail-spin of epic destruction involving extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced - a catastrophe of our own making  (Extreme Weather Quotes) While we would not want to attribute every extreme weather event to climate change - the pattern is building and the costs are rising - the human costs and the financial costs  (Extreme Weather Quotes) My sense is that the most under-appreciated-and perhaps most under-researched-linkages between forests and food security are the roles that forest-based ecosystem services play in underpinning sustainable agricultural production. Forests regulate hydrological services including the quantity, quality, and timing of water available for irrigation. Forest-based bats and bees pollinate crops. Forests mitigate impacts of climate change and extreme weather events at the landscape scale  (Extreme Weather Quotes) The science linking the increased frequency and severity of extreme weather to the climate crisis has matured tremendously in the last couple of years  (Extreme Weather Quotes) Weather can kill you so fast. The first priority of survival is getting protection from the extreme weather  (Extreme Weather Quotes) It’s false. There is absolutely no evidence that extreme weather events are on the increase. None. The argument that more and more dollar damages accrue is a reflection of the greater amount of wealth we’ve created  (Extreme Weather Quotes) I’ve been producing documentaries on global warming for 20 years and have seen the early warnings of extreme weather events come true  (Extreme Weather Quotes) Our planet is warming due to pollution from human activities. And a warming climate increases the likelihood of extreme weather  (Extreme Weather Quotes) Climate change is a controversial subject, right? People will debate whether there is climate change... that’s a whole political debate that I don’t want to get into. I want to talk about the frequency of extreme weather situations, which is not political  (Extreme Weather Quotes)
