Maggie Nelson
“Philosophers of freedom were mainly, and understandably, concerned with how humans would escape the injustice, oppression, inequality, or even uniformity foisted on them by other humans or human-made systems. Geological time and the chronology of human histories remained unrelated. This distance between the two calendars, as we have seen, is what climate scientists now claim has collapsed. The period I have mentioned, from 1750 to now, is also the time when human beings switched from wood and other renewable fuels to large-scale use of fossil fuel—first coal and then oil and gas. The mansion of modern freedoms stands on an ever-expanding base of fossil-fuel use.”
Maggie Nelson, On Freedom: Four Songs of Care and Constraint

Yuval Noah Harari
“Climate change may be far beyond the concerns of people in the midst of a life-and-death emergency, but it might eventually make the Mumbai slums uninhabitable, send enormous new waves of refugees across the Mediterranean, and lead to a worldwide crisis in healthcare.”
Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

“Here the junkies and the pros, the pervs and the homeless, looked out over their daily shrinking atoll with as much bewilderment and as little hope as the inhabitants of some South Seas micro-nation, knowing the future might hold, it held nothing for them.”
Flanagan Richard

Stewart Stafford
“Midnight's Toll by Stewart Stafford

As the lungs of our world burn,
SS Nero crashes on plastic rocks,
Kamikaze Captain Mann at the helm,
Safety is beyond our salvation.

As a loved one cruelly disfigured,
By a crazed passerby in the street,
The house we once loved as life,
Now a distant, renovated stranger.

Midnight's toll becomes due,
The malicious piper paid in full,
Only desolation, bones and dust,
Our necropolis legacy to the future.

David Wallace-Wells
“At the moment, stories illustrating global warming can still offer an escapist pleasure, even if that pleasure often comes in the form of horror. But when we can no longer pretend that climate suffering is distant—in time or in place—we will stop pretending about it and start pretending within it.”
David Wallace-Wells, The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming

We fight for universal healthcare because of love.
We fight for a livable planet because of love.
We fight for equitable housing because of love.

Ilhan Omar
“Stop saying "we can't afford" Homes for All, Green New Deal or Medicare for All. If we didn't spend trillions on endless wars and tax breaks for millionaires, we could afford to house our homeless, care for our seniors, and save our planet. We suffer from greed, not scarcity.

Ilhan Omar

“All around the world, the hard realities of a warming world are crashing up against the brutal logic of austerity, revealing just how untenable it is to starve the public sphere at the very moment we need it most.”
Naomi Klein, This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. The Climate

Anthony T. Hincks
“Will water become the new gold of the coming age?
Will man lust after the precious commodity in an ever aggressive manner?
Will nature meet man head on and show him who is boss?”
Anthony T. Hincks

Anthony T. Hincks
“When the earth is hot enough, through global warming, plastic will flow as once water did on this home of ours.”
Anthony T. Hincks

Ranulph Fiennes
“Fifteen miles above us, as was first discovered by the British Antarctic Survey nine years before, a hole in the ozone layer opened up at this time of the year (at its worst in November) and allowed dangerous levels of ultraviolet rays to descend unfiltered to Antarctica and southerly lands like Australasia and Patagonia.

Every year the hole grows bigger and more animals, including humans, suffer the resulting cancers, blindness and weakened immune systems. In Australia and New Zealand malignant melanomas have taken over from other cancers and heart disease as man's chief killers. In Patagonia, where sheep outnumber humans, whole flocks are going blind.”
Ranulph Fiennes, Mind Over Matter: The Epic Crossing of the Antarctic Continent

“Either way, in such vital sector related to the global challenge of climate change, collaboration would be more useful than trade wars.”
