If we smoke, there's no magic number of cigarettes, or number of years, that we can smoke before we know we'll get lung cancer.

I've even had people tell me that I must not be a Christian because I think climate change is real. But you know, there's nothing in the Bible that says that. The sad truth is that our thought leaders - many of them in the conservative media and politics - are the ones telling us this isn't real, and we are believing them.

We must also suffer the consequences of our past decisions. And for that, we must open our hearts to those in need.

One of the biggest issues with renewables right now is the fact that if the wind isn't blowing, if the sun isn't shining, we don't have energy. Many people are working on storage technology so when the wind isn't blowing, we can use the energy stored in our giant batteries, essentially. But what happens if we don't have enough stored energy?

It's easier to discredit the science than to say that climate change is a genuine issue but we don't want to do anything about it.

For many of us, our values come from our faith.

We have to fix climate change with the people we have right now, and to a large extent with the perspectives we have right now as well.
