Text Quotes
All humans have fear, and those of us who are fortunate have faith  (Van Jones Quotes) Distorting attacks when people already don’t trust you is not smart  (Van Jones Quotes) Clean energy independence should be an area of common ground  (Van Jones Quotes) Higher energy costs are unavoidable in all future scenarios  (Van Jones Quotes) Rich countries do civil wars with tweets and votes  (Van Jones Quotes) It’s time to start bringing the congregations down to City Hall and to ask the mayors, the city councils and the school boards, What’s the plan? What’s the local government going to do for us?  (Van Jones Quotes) We need to send hundreds of millions of dollars down to our public high schools, vocational colleges, and community colleges to begin training people in the green-collar work of the future - things like solar-panel installation, retrofitting buildings that are leaking energy, wastewater reclamation, organic food, materials reuse and recycling.  (Van Jones Quotes) I would argue that we have a patriotic duty to move toward energy independence and clean energy. It is a matter of national security - energy security, climate security, economic security, job security, everything.  (Van Jones Quotes) We are trying to reinvigorate our stagnant energy sector, to create avenues for new wealth. Clean energy innovation, job creation and energy independence should be common ground for all Americans.  (Van Jones Quotes) There are 80,000 jobs in the wind energy industry right now. And you can quadruple that number, if you have the right policy in place to promote clean energy.  (Van Jones Quotes) Environmentalists and clean energy champions should stop telling people that we are working for sustainability, which nobody understands.  (Van Jones Quotes) Progressives always like clean energy ideas. But conservatives should like this agenda, too.  (Van Jones Quotes) In countries where there are real civil wars, people go through a lot, and we should be willing to go through a lot to help them.  (Van Jones Quotes) To green our country, regular people will have to put on hard hats and work boots, roll up their sleeves - and get to work.  (Van Jones Quotes) We need to invest in job training programs, especially those that include child care, transit stipends and paid apprenticeships and internships.  (Van Jones Quotes) I’m learning and changing all the time, and I expect to continue doing so my entire life  (Van Jones Quotes) We need a more diversified portfolio of change-making tools so that we don’t just get so freaked out by whatever’s happening in the political corner.  (Van Jones Quotes) Sometimes we overemphasize the political system. There are other ways to make a difference. There’s technology, there’s media, there’s business.  (Van Jones Quotes) [I wish no one ever asked me ] Did you sign that petition implicating the Bush Administration in 9/11? Because I never signed it, and I hate being vilified for a controversial idea I never espoused.  (Van Jones Quotes) If someone like myself, who is married to a white woman, who has spent my entire life building bridges, can’t point out the alt-right whitelash reaction without being accused of being a racial polemecist, we’re going to have a big problem.  (Van Jones Quotes) I’m the guy that’s trying to break up that monopoly to introduce free enterprise and competition to the energy sector.  (Van Jones Quotes) People in red states and blue states can agree that clean air is better than dirty air; therefore we should use clean energy where we can.  (Van Jones Quotes) The usual pattern of demagogues is to promise the moon, fail to deliver, and then blame vulnerable others for those failures.  (Van Jones Quotes) I’m not asking for more entitlement programs; I’m asking for more enterprise  (Van Jones Quotes) Too often we think about the green economy as an elite market niche, one in which affluent people spend more money to consume greener and cleaner products.  (Van Jones Quotes) Right now, the government is spending billions of dollars supporting the problem-makers in the U.S. economy - the polluters, despoilers, incarcerators, and warmongers.  (Van Jones Quotes) To the God in myself is probably the most honest answer. I think everybody has a divine destiny.  (Van Jones Quotes) In other words: we can fight pollution and poverty at the same time, with the same method. We can beat global warming and the global recession at the same time, with the same method. We can do this by putting people to work re-powering America with clean energy.  (Van Jones Quotes) If we do nothing, the ensuing climate catastrophe will wreck our economy - including wreaking havoc on our food production systems. All credible scientists agree on this point.  (Van Jones Quotes) Fighting for and defending the values from the pulpit is critical. You can’t love the Creator, and disrespect the creation.  (Van Jones Quotes)
