$We need policy change, and the most important thing people can do is to contribute and participate in the political process.

I think what we all have to do is make this big leap towards renewables. And it has to be a solution where you’re actually building the answer; and it has to be built faster than the natural gas industry can build their answer Picture Quote #1

The Safe Drinking Water Act, the safety provisions of the Clean Water Acts, the Clean Air Act, the Superfund Law - the gas industry is exempt from all these basic environmental and worker protections.

I think we’re in an era of unprecedented dominance by corporations. I think people understand that deeply; I don’t think that’s even questioned Picture Quote #1

$What we’ve got is the wholesale embrace of fracking domestically, internationally and for export. And this couldn’t be further from what we really need to do to address climate change Picture Quote #1$

The BP spill was the greatest environmental catastrophe in U.S. history. Yet somehow, gas companies like BP and Halliburton ran interference on reporting that story Picture Quote #1

I’ve been arrested three times. I don’t like getting arrested, but it’s not so bad when it’s an organized form of nonviolent disobedience. It’s something appealing to a higher law Picture Quote #1

When you’re cornered, there are two things you can do: move or fight Picture Quote #1

Natural gas is a bridge fuel. But it’s not a bridge - it’s a gangplank. It’s either a bridge in space or a bridge in time. The bridge in time we don’t need. We have renewable technology right now Picture Quote #1
