Text Quotes
If we do not change our negative habits toward climate change, we can count on worldwide disruptions in food production, resulting in mass migration, refugee crises and increased conflict over scarce natural resources like water and farm land. This is a recipe for major security problems  (Climate Change Quotes) Climate change is a global problem. The planet is warming because of the growing level of greenhouse gas emissions from human activity. If this trend continues, truly catastrophic consequences are likely to ensue from rising sea levels, to reduced water availability, to more heat waves and fires  (Climate Change Quotes) I think we’re going to find, with climate change and everything else, things like global warming and goodness knows what else and the cost of fuel for a start, that things are going to become very complicated  (Climate Change Quotes) The window of opportunity to avoid dangerous climate change is closing more quickly than previously thought  (Climate Change Quotes) Many problems that challenge us today can be traced back to a profound tension between what is good and desirable for society as a whole and what is good and desirable for an individual. That conflict can be found in global problems such as climate change, pollution, resource depletion, poverty, hunger, and overpopulation  (Climate Change Quotes) I see myself as a climate change skeptic and a skeptic looks at the evidence and bases conclusions on the evidence rather than on belief. To hold the view that this is not an issue that you need to do something about, to hold the view that it’s all a furphy takes belief  (Climate Change Quotes) With each passing year, experimental observations further undermine the claim of a large positive feedback from water. In fact, observations suggest that the feedback is close to zero or may even be negative  (Climate Change Quotes) If we change the way the electricity sector operates, we can bring down our levels of carbon pollution, and continue the crucial task of tackling climate change. Putting a price on carbon would do this  (Climate Change Quotes) ... what we are talking about is extended world war... People would move on a massive scale. Hundreds of millions, probably billions of people would have to move  (Climate Change Quotes) Global warming is part of natural cycle and there’s nothing we can actually do to stop these cycles. The world is now facing spending a vast amount of money in tax to try to solve a problem that doesn’t actually exist  (Climate Change Quotes) Climate change is a result of the greatest market failure the world has seen... We risk damages on a scale larger than the two world wars of the last century  (Climate Change Quotes) There’s no happy ending where we prevent climate change any more. Now the question is, is it going to be a miserable century or an impossible one, and what comes after that  (Climate Change Quotes) Because the idea of climate change is so plastic, it can be deployed across many of our human projects and can serve many of our psychological, ethical and spiritual needs... We need to ask not what we can do for climate change, but to ask what climate change can do for us  (Climate Change Quotes) Every once in a while I feel despair over the fate of the planet. If you’ve been following climate science, you know what I mean: the sense that we’re hurtling toward catastrophe but nobody wants to hear about it or do anything to avert it  (Climate Change Quotes) ... We have 25 or so years invested in the work. Why should I make the data available to you, when your aim is to try to find something wrong with it  (Climate Change Quotes) Civilization as we know it will come to an end sometime in this century unless we can find a way to live without fossil fuels  (Climate Change Quotes) By the year 2000, such renewable energy sources could provide 40 percent of the global energy budget; by 2025, humanity could obtain 75 percent of its energy from solar resources  (Climate Change Quotes) ... Denmark should be a green and sustainable society with a visionary climate and energy policy... The answer to these challenges lies in the way we produce and consume energy and in our ability to adapt our society to climate change  (Climate Change Quotes) The grid is going to be a very different system in 2020, 2030. We keep thinking that we want it to be there and provide power when we need it... Families will have to get used to only using power when it was available, rather than constantly  (Climate Change Quotes) The prospect of cheap fusion energy is the worst thing that could happen to the planet  (Climate Change Quotes) ... it is true that renewable energy is expensive and can’t be done without public sector support, it is an important investment in the future  (Climate Change Quotes) The greatest danger hanging over our children and grandchildren is initiation of changes that will be irreversible on any time scale that humans can imagine  (Climate Change Quotes) The crux of the sea level issue is that it starts very slowly but once it gets going it is practically unstoppable... There is no way I can see to stop this rise, even if we have gone to zero emissions  (Climate Change Quotes) In the end, it will just melt away quite suddenly. It might not be as early as 2013 but it will be soon, much earlier than 2040  (Climate Change Quotes) Scientists are also unnerved by the summer’s implications for the future... proof that human activities are propelling a slide toward climate calamity... humans may have tipped the balance... a particularly harsh jolt to polar bears  (Climate Change Quotes) Carbon dioxide pollution is transforming the chemistry of the ocean, rapidly making the water more acidic. In decades, rising ocean acidity may challenge life on a scale that has not occurred for tens of millions of years. So we confront an urgent choice: to move beyond fossil fuels or to risk turning the ocean into a sea of weeds  (Climate Change Quotes) It’s terrible to have to say this. World population must be stabilized and to do that we must eliminate 350,000 people per day. This is so horrible to contemplate that we shouldn’t even say it. But the general situation in which we are involved is lamentable  (Climate Change 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  (Climate Change Quotes) Coal makes us sick. Oil makes us sick. It’s global warming. It’s ruining our country. It’s ruining our world  (Climate Change Quotes) Nobody... likes talking about enforceable international protocols and yet unless there is a real change in attitude, we have to contemplate those very unwelcome possibilities if we want the global economy not to collapse and millions, billions, of people to die  (Climate Change Quotes)
