Like all animals, human beings have always taken what they want from nature. But we are the rogue species. We are unique in our ability to use resources on a scale and at a speed that our fellow species can't.

Digital photography and Photoshop have made it very easy for people to take pictures. It's a medium that allows a lot of mediocre stuff to get through.

I wish my artwork could persuade millions of people to join a global conversation about sustainability.

I think the environmental movement has failed in that it's used the stick too much; it's used the apocalyptic tone too much; it hasn't sold the positive aspects of being environmentally concerned and trying to pull us out.

Somebody referred to what I do as subliminal activism, which I like.

I wish we could launch a ground-breaking competition that motivates kids to invent new ideas in sustainable living.
