Whatever my current beliefs are, on any topic, they're all open to being changed by the right facts and the right evidence.

I decided five years ago that I wanted to truly understand, for myself, what the state of the planet was, and when I dug into it, what I found was quite different than I'd imagined.

If the incentives are aligned right - towards better preservation and restoration of nature and natural resources - then you'll see a tremendous amount of activity in that direction.

Today, our incentives aren't set up well - you can make a lot of money burning fossil fuels, digging up wetlands, pumping fossil water out of aquifers that will take 10,000 years to recharge, overfishing species in international waters that are close to collapse, and so on.

I think the environmental movement is now so large and diverse that it's hard to talk of it as a single entity.

We don't have good global policies in place for climate.
