The struggle against poverty in the world and the challenge of cutting wealthy country emissions all has a single, very simple solution... Here it is: Put a price on carbon.

I feel passionate about solving the climate crisis.

The task of saving the earth's environment must and will become the central organizing principle of the post-Cold War world.

At some point, a false belief collides with physical reality.

Every nation has a moral obligation to safeguard the future.

I'm going to be focused on doing everything I possibly can to help solve the climate crisis.

Today we're dumping 70 million tons of global-warming pollution into the environment, and tomorrow we will dump more, and there is no effective worldwide response. Until we start sharply reducing global-warming pollution, I will feel that I have failed.
