Climate Quotes

I cannot pursue my architecture without considering the minimization of energy consumption, simple and direct technologies, a respect for site, climate, place and culture. Together, these disciplines represent for me a fantastic platform for experimentation and expression. Of particular importance is the junction of the rational and the poetic resulting hopefully in works that resonate and belong to where they reside Picture Quote #1

Is climate change pseudoscience? If I’m going to answer the question, the answer is: absolutely Picture Quote #1

There is no doubt in my mind that the literature on climate change overwhelmingly supports the hypothesis that climate change is caused by humans. I have very little reason to doubt that the consensus is indeed correct Picture Quote #1

It’s the arrogance of man to think that man can change the climate of the world. Only nature can change the climate. A volcano, for instance Picture Quote #1

It would be disastrous if bad planning policy meant that today’s new developments become tomorrow’s climate slums Picture Quote #1

Since art is a virtue of the intellect, it demands to communicate with the entire universe of the intellect. Hence it is that the normal climate of art is intelligence and knowledge: its normal soil, the civilized heritage of a consistent and integrated system of beliefs and values; its normal horizon, the infinity of human experience enlighted by the passionate insight of anguish or the intellectual virtues of a contemplative mind Picture Quote #1

The only thing that will really change global warming in the long run is if we radically increase the speed with which we get alternative technologies to deal with climate change Picture Quote #1

Having an energy conversation without talking about climate is like talking about smoking and not talking about cancer Picture Quote #1

If you think about the impact of climate change, it should be how a doctor would deal with the problem. A scientific hypothesis is tested to absolute destruction, but medicine can’t wait. If a doctor sees a child with a fever, he can’t wait for endless tests. He has to act on what is there. The risk of delay is so enormous that we can’t wait until we are absolutely sure the patient is dying Picture Quote #1

I’m in the dark as to how close to an edge or transition to a new ocean and climate regime we might me. But I know which way we are walking. We are walking toward the cliff Picture Quote #1

You have got to compete with them... you have to be working toward a future of your own. A picture of the future of your own that is contradictory to theirs, in which the things that they want to do have no place because you have been so successful at promoting the idea of sex within marriage... focus on transforming the society to be reinforcing of all these ideas... everywhere... When you do that then you create a climate in which these things really cannot get very far Picture Quote #1

Oil depletion and climate change will create an entirely new context in which political struggles will be played out. Within that context, it is not just freedom, democracy, and equality that are at stake, but the survival of billions of humans and of whole ecosystems Picture Quote #1

The big damages come if the climate sensitivity to greenhouse gases turns out to be high causing greater global warming than current projections. Then it’s not a bullet headed at us, but a thermonuclear warhead Picture Quote #1

However it is achieved, a thorough reorganisation of production, consumption and distribution will be the end result of humanity’s response to the climate emergency and the broader environmental crisis Picture Quote #1

Climate is not responding to greenhouse gases in the way we thought it might. If increasing carbon dioxide is in fact increasing climate change, its impact is smaller than natural variation. People are being misled by people making money out of this Picture Quote #1

There is no doubt there is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, caused by the burning of fossil fuels. It should have an effect on the climate, but the numbers indicate that effect is relatively minor Picture Quote #1

The more the climate is forced to change, the more likely it is to hit some unforeseen threshold that can trigger quite fast, surprising and perhaps unpleasant changes Picture Quote #1

A photographer is responsible for creating a climate in which they can do their best work Picture Quote #1

Have we failed to slow global warming pollution in part because climate and environmental activists have been too polite and well behaved? Picture Quote #1

Stabilizing the climate is not about saving the human species... Stabilizing the climate is a precious opportunity to pass on to all future human beings gifts of immense value, gifts that, once gone, will be beyond the imagination and skill of humanity to recreate Picture Quote #1

Today’s dialogue has succeeded in reinforcing the need for international partnerships and cooperation in tackling the reality of climate change Picture Quote #1

Today’s new climate policy is like delivering the final divorce papers to the public and the world,... And it is divorced from the reality of global warming Picture Quote #1

Global climate change has a profound impact on the survival and development of mankind. It is a major challenge facing all countries Picture Quote #1

If we think of what’s up ahead, with climate change and wars over water, it’s very frightening Picture Quote #1

I think we have a very brief window of opportunity to deal with climate change... no longer than a decade, at the most Picture Quote #1

We humans, one species of animal amongst millions, have now become the de facto guardians of the planet’s climate stability Picture Quote #1

We’ve known for some time that we have to worry about the impacts of climate change on our children’s and grandchildren’s generations. But we now have to worry about ourselves as well Picture Quote #1

What degree of proof about the human catastrophe from global climate change do we need, before we are motivated to act to prevent it? Picture Quote #1

You’d be forgiven for thinking that climate change means we’ll have to sacrifice our creature comforts. But it doesn’t have to be that way Picture Quote #1

So we are left with a stark choice: allow climate disruption to change everything about our world, or change pretty much everything about our economy to avoid that fate. But we need to be very clear: because of our decades of collective denial, no gradual, incremental options are now available to us Picture Quote #1
