Greenhouse Quotes

If Earth ever suffers a runaway greenhouse effect (like what has happened on Venus), then our atmosphere would trap excess amounts of solar energy, the air temperature would rise, and the oceans would swiftly evaporate into the atmosphere as they sustained a rolling boil. This would be bad Picture Quote #1

The black line is carbon emissions to date. The red line is the status quo - a projection of where emissions will go if no new substantial policy is passed to restrain greenhouse gas emissions Picture Quote #1

China will soon emit more greenhouse gases than America, but its regime knows if it caps aspirations there will be a revolution Picture Quote #1

You have to be able to generate usable energy without greenhouse gas emissions and you have to be able to do it cheaply if you want people to choose that approach Picture Quote #1

We have climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions, mostly from human power and transportation infrastructure. At the same time, we have 2 billion people who live in energy poverty Picture Quote #1

The US really has to get out in front. We are the biggest per person, by a substantial amount, greenhouse emitters, and we give the most foreign aid, not per person but in absolute Picture Quote #1

Denmark, the Netherlands and Germany have detailed plans to cut their greenhouse emissions by 20 to 50 percent Picture Quote #1

With time environmental issues got much more complicated. It is pretty easy, if you know what you are doing, to stop a company from pouring poison into a lake where kids swim. It is much harder to address all the myriad greenhouse gases emitted by different sources - from petrochemical refineries to hundreds of millions of peasants cutting down trees for their incredibly inefficient cook stoves Picture Quote #1

The human race likes to give itself airs. One good volcano can produce more greenhouse gases in a year than the human race has in its entire history Picture Quote #1

We have built a greenhouse, a human greenhouse, where once there bloomed a sweet and wild garden Picture Quote #1

Even if we were to stop putting out greenhouse gases right now, we’d still face decades of warming Picture Quote #1

Meat is a tremendous environmental challenge. It contributes enormous amounts of greenhouse gas, especially beef eating Picture Quote #1

Many governments are giving subsidies to fossil fuel production and consumption that encourage greenhouse gas emissions, at the same time as they are spending on projects to promote clean energy. This is a wasteful use of scarce budget resources Picture Quote #1

If the greenhouse effect is a blanket in which we wrap ourselves to keep warm, nuclear winter kicks the blanket off Picture Quote #1

We run enormous risks and we know what kind of reductions of greenhouse gases are necessary to drastically reduce risks. Reducing emissions by half by 2050 is roughly in the right ballpark. It would bring us below 550 ppm Picture Quote #1
