What we lack is a good, strong business climate with lower taxes, fairer regulation. (Kevin Brady)
When all the world appears to be in a tumult, and nature itself is feeling the assault of climate change, the seasons retain their essential rhythm. Yes, fall gives us a premonition of winter, but then, winter, will be forced to relent, once again, to the new beginnings of soft greens, longer light, and the sweet air of Spring. View quote
Madeleine M. Kunin
Climate change is a global problem. The planet is warming because of the growing level of greenhouse gas emissions from human activity. If this trend continues, truly catastrophic consequences are likely to ensue from rising sea levels, to reduced water availability, to more heat waves and fires. View quote
Malcolm Turnbull
Public discourse has been polluted now for decades by corporate-funded disinformation - not just with climate change but with a host of health, environmental and societal threats. The implications for the planet are grim. View quote
Michael E. Mann
I think it's a shame when the arts have to suffer because of corporate greed. People will always strive to make film, and the only important thing is that we keep trying to make ourselves heard and keep making our films, no matter what the climate is. View quote
Paddy Considine
And given that there's been probably a ten-fold amount of information about terrorism through the media than there has about climate change; I think that's quite an interesting statistic. View quote
Peter Garrett
Climate change is also clearly a matter of huge interest and concern for the scientific community. View quote
Peter Garrett
It's absolutely not acceptable for people to argue that, if we are going to do anything about climate change at all, well, the responsibility lies solely with the individual. View quote
Peter Garrett
Look, very clearly there are things that need to be done urgently in relation to climate change, and of those the most obvious is to have an enforceable and equitable arrangement delivering deep cuts in emissions into the middle of the century. View quote
Peter Garrett
Climate change is such a huge issue that it requires strong, concerted, consistent and enduring action by governments. View quote
Peter Garrett
Once you start to look into the guts of climate change you find that just about every scientific institution in the world is conducting research on the issue. (Peter Garrett)
Computer modelling for weather forecasting, and indeed for climate forecasting, has reached its limits. View quote
Piers Corbyn
In fact, even the current administration now is releasing recent reports indicating that climate change is real, that global warming is occurring, that it is heavily influenced by man-made objects and that it is something we cannot ignore any longer. View quote
Ron Kind
The production of natural resources in agriculture, forestry and fisheries, stable natural hydrological cycles, fertile soils, a balanced climate and numerous other vital ecosystem services can only be permanently secured through the protection and sustainable use of biological diversity. View quote
Sigmar Gabriel
What I worry about is climate change, because that would have untold effects that we can't even measure yet. View quote
Susan George
I was raised in a climate where I believed in God because I was afraid of going to hell - and I didn't think that was the right way to fall in love with somebody. View quote
Scott Stapp
Maine's long and cold winters may help keep our State's population low, but our harsh climate also accounts for what is unique and valuable about our land and our people. View quote
Tom Allen
The weather in California is so much hotter than it is in England that it's absolutely changed my style. I have many more dresses and shorts than I ever thought I would coming from U.K.! It's so much easier to dress femininely in a warm climate. View quote
Tamsin Egerton
Professor Whitehead has recently restored a seventeenth century phrase-"climate of opinion." The phrase is much needed. Whether arguments command assent or not depends less upon the logic that conveys them than upon the climate of opinion in which they are sustained. View quote
Carl L. Becker
We all accept that renewable energy is vital to reducing climate change. View quote
Alex Salmond
I'm not against a global pact to reduce CO2. Indeed, I favor it. But in the absence of one - and there is no chance of getting one in the foreseeable future - there is no point in America committing economic suicide to no effect on climate change, the reversing of which, after all, is the alleged point of the exercise. For a president to propose this with such aggressive certainty is incomprehensible. It is the starkest of examples of belief that is impervious to evidence. And the word for that is faith, not science. (Charles Krauthammer)
Like any internationalist, I embrace Scotland's interdependence and the advantages that such interdependence confers. But in international relations - perhaps even more than the economic sphere - there are major advantages to pursuing an independent policy that promotes Scotland's global interests. Indeed it precisely because we live in an interdependent world - one where markets are integrating and information flow is unstoppable - a world where the reality of climate change acts as a daily reminder of our reliance on each other - that independence matters. Interdependence is a welcome fact of modern global politics. What matters in the Scottish national interest - above all else - are the terms on which Scotland engages. The equality of esteem, of authority between nations matters more now than it has ever done. View quote
Alex Salmond
In a distant age and climate, the tragic scene of the death of Husein will awaken the sympathy of the coldest reader. View quote
Husayn ibn Ali
Climate is what you expect, weather is what you get. View quote
Robert A. Heinlein
Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth... these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women's empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all. View quote
