More quotes by David Suzuki

David Suzuki
Even meeting Kyoto targets barely makes a dent in what we have to achieve.
David Suzuki
The current economic system is fundamentally flawed and inevitably destructive.

David Suzuki
Feeding our energy appetite is top of mind for many people these days.
David Suzuki

David Suzuki
The voluntary approach to corporate social responsibility has failed in many cases.
David Suzuki
Despite the international scientific community's consensus on climate change, a small number of critics continue to deny that climate change exists or that humans are causing it. Widely known as climate change skeptics or deniers, these individuals are generally not climate scientists and do not debate the science with the climate scientis
David Suzuki
But human borders mean nothing to air, water, windblown soil or seeds or migrating fish, birds or mammals.
David Suzuki
The event of creation did not take place so many eons ago, astronomically or biologically speaking. Creation is taking place every moment of our lives.
David Suzuki
If we continue to set human borders and the economy as our highest priorities, we will never come to grips with the destructiveness of our activities and institutions.
David Suzuki
