- There
is a spiritual side to our connection with the planet. And
in this material world, that's anathema. It is somewhat worrying.
What I say.. it makes life. It gives us fulfilment. It makes
us whole human beings. And without it, we make mistakes. And,
boy, are the leaders of the world making mistakes at the moment.

- Climate
change is so big that people who study it.. and many do..
need to speak to it. They must present scientific papers,
they must appear in public, they must speak to the media and
we must hear their voices. In order to get policy right, policymakers..
governments.. need to make decisions based on sound science.

Quotes
- The message
from Wal-Mart
today to the rest of the business community is there need
not be any conflict between the environment and the economy.
We will find the way not only to reconcile (those), but to
find new profits and new opportunities as we do the right
thing.

- Global
warming pollution, indeed all pollution, is now described
by economists as an externality. This absurd label
means, in essence: we dont to keep track of this stuff
so lets pretend it doesnt exist.

Quotes
- We sometimes
emphasize the danger in a crisis without focusing on the opportunities
that are there. We should feel a great sense of urgency because
it is the most dangerous crisis we have ever faced, by far.
But it also provides us with opportunities to do a lot of
things we ought to be doing for other reasons anyway. And
to solve this crisis we can develop a shared sense of moral
purpose. (talking about the environamental crisis)

my path would have always gone back to or delivered me to
wildlife. I think wildlife is just like a magnet, and it's
something that I can't help.

Quotes
- I am
optimistic globally. So many scientists are working frantically
on the reparation of our planet. Unfortunately there are countries
who are still destroying it, but we really hope the conservation
message rubs off in our film. Every cent we earn from Crocodile
Hunter goes straight back into conservation. Every single
cent.

of civilization and industry in general has always shown itself
so active in the destruction of forests that everything that
has been done for their conservation and production is completely
insignificant in comparison.

- We've
polluted the stratosphere with these chlorine and bromine
compounds, and because it's now colder, and because we have
this change in the climate, we're getting more ozone loss

- When
the Kyoto Protocol enters into the force tomorrow, the world
will take a significant and long-awaited first step towards
stemming global warming. Instead of stepping forward as the
world leader on climate change, however, the Bush Administration
is clinging to the role of world obstructionist.

- Many
organic practices simply make sense, regardless of what overall
agricultural system is used. Far from being a quaint throwback
to an earlier time, organic agriculture is proving to be a
serious contender in modern farming and a more environmentally
sustainable system over the long term.

quite simply, is the issue. We live in a finite world with

- People..
especially people in positions of power.. have invested a
tremendous amount of effort and time to get to where they
are. They really don't want to hear that we're on the wrong

- We are
upsetting the atmosphere upon which all life depends. In the
late 80s when I began to take climate change seriously, we
referred to global warming as a "slowmotion catastrophe"
one we expected to kick in perhaps generations later. Instead,
the signs of change have accelerated alarmingly.

Quotes
- The secret
of success is to realize that the crisis on our planet is
much larger than just deciding what to do with your own life,
and if the system under which we live the structure of western
civilization begins to collapse because of our selfishness
and greed, then it will make no difference whether you have
$1 million dollars when the crash comes or just $1.00.
