Global Warming Quotes A-Z by Author |
I think it is manmade. I think it's clearly
manmade. If you don't understand what the
cause is, it's virtually impossible to come
up with a solution. We know what the cause
is. The cause is manmade. That's the cause.
That's why the polar icecap is melting.

We can drift along as though there were
still a cold war, wasting hundreds of billions
of dollars on weapons that will never be
used, ignoring the problems of people in
this country and around the world, being
one of the worst environmental violators
on earth, standing against any sort of viable
programs to protect the world's forests
or to cut down on acid rain or the global
warming or ozone depletion. We can ignore
human rights violations in other countries,
or we can take these things on as true leaders
ought to and accept the inspiring challenge
of America for the future.

The world’s forests need to be seen for what they are.. giant global
utilities, providing essential services to humanity on a vast scale. Rainforests
store carbon, which is lost to the atmosphere when they burn, increasing global
warming. The life they support cleans the atmosphere of pollutants and feeds it
with moisture. They help regulate our climate and sustain the lives of some of
the poorest people on this Earth.

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.

We should be treating, I think, the whole issue of climate
change and global warming with a far greater degree of priority than I think is
happening now.

There are many who still do not believe that global warming is a problem at all.
And it's no wonder: because they are the targets of a massive and well-organized
campaign of disinformation lavishly funded by polluters who are determined to
prevent any action to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming
out of a fear that their profits might be affected if they had to stop dumping
so much pollution into the atmosphere.

What changed in the United States with Hurricane Katrina was a feeling that

For a long time, the scientists have been telling us global warming increases
the temperature of the top layer in the ocean, and that causes the average hurricane
to become a lot stronger. So, the fact that the ocean temperatures did go up because
of global warming, because of man-made global warming, starting around in the
seventies and then we had a string of unusually strong hurricanes outside the
boundaries of this multi-decadal cycle that is a real factor; there are scientists
who point that out, and they're right, but we're exceeding those boundaries now.

Our nation has both an obligation and self-interest in facing head-on the
serious environmental, economic and national security threat posed by global warming.

All across the world, in every kind of environment and region known to man,
increasingly dangerous weather patterns and devastating storms are abruptly putting
an end to the long-running debate over whether or not climate change is real.
Not only is it real, it's here, and its effects are giving rise to a frighteningly
new global phenomenon: the man-made natural disaster.

Today we're seeing that climate change is about more than a few unseasonably
mild winters or hot summers. It's about the chain of natural catastrophes and
devastating weather patterns that global warming is beginning to set off around
the world.. the frequency and intensity of which are breaking records thousands
of years old.

The issue of climate change is one that we ignore at our own peril. There
may still be disputes about exactly how much we're contributing to the warming
of the earth's atmosphere and how much is naturally occurring, but what we can
be scientifically certain of is that our continued use of fossil fuels is pushing
us to a point of no return. And unless we free ourselves from a dependence on
these fossil fuels and chart a new course on energy in this country, we are condemning
future generations to global catastrophe.

We want a national emissions trading scheme, the Government does not and has
rejected one for years. We want to boost the mandatory renewable energies target,
the Government has failed to do that. We want a national demand side management
strategy for the country to reduce electricity consumption and the Government,
up until now, has done very little on that score.

Global warming is one of those things, not like an earthquake where there's a
big bang and you say, 'Oh, my God, this is really, has hit us.' It creeps up on
you. Half a degree temperature difference from one year to the next, a little
bit of rise of the ocean, a little bit of melting of the glaciers, and then all
of a sudden it is too late to do something about it.

I think that if it is.. has to do with global warming, or if it has to do
with raising the minimum wage, or if it has to do with lowering prescription drugs
for vulnerable citizens.. all of those things are people issues, not Democratic
issues or Republican issues.

We simply must do everything we can in our power to slow down global warming
before it is too late. The science is clear. The global warming debate is over.

As I see it, mankind’s ability to understand
and control the forces of nature greatly
exceeds our ability to govern ourselves.
Our economy has become global; our governance
has not. Our future and, in some respects,
our survival depend on our ability to develop
the appropriate global governance. This
applies to a variety of fields: global warming
and nuclear proliferation are the most obvious,
but the threats of terrorism and infectious
diseases also qualify; so do global financial
markets. In the aftermath of the financial
crisis of 2008, it is not enough to stabilize
and restart the financial markets; we must
reinvent a global financial system that
has broken down. Having reached this insight,
I cannot afford not to address these issues.

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.
