Some argue that now isn't the time to push the green agenda - that all efforts should be on preventing a serious recession. That is a false choice.

When political leaders fail to denounce anti-Semitic violence and slurs, the void is not only demoralizing to the victims, but silence actually enables the wrongdoing.

Hollywood is the perfect conduit for the urgent message about climate change. We raise awareness all the time.
