We must reduce all the emissions that are destroying the planet. However, that requires a change in lifestyle, a change in the economic model: We must go from capitalism to socialism.

More quotes by Hugo Chavez
Racism is very characteristic of imperialism and capitalism. Hate against me has a lot to do with racism. Because of my big mouth and curly hair. And I'm so proud to have this mouth and this hair, because it is African.
Hugo Chavez
I love books. If they are good books, I love them even more. But even if they are bad books, I still love them.
Hugo Chavez
It makes one sad to see the sell-out of President Fox, really it makes one sad. How sad that the president of a people like the Mexicans lets himself become the puppy dog of the empire.
Hugo Chavez
When imperialism feels weak, it resorts to brute force.
Hugo Chavez
Israel has gone mad. It's attacking, doing the same thing to the Palestinian and Lebanese people that they have criticised - and with reason - the Holocaust . But this is a new Holocaust.
Hugo Chavez
I think the United States and the secretary of State should be concerned about the poverty in this country - people without health insurance. The United States should stop being the empire and be concerned about other countries. You've got to be more worried about your own people.
Hugo Chavez
Israel criticizes Hitler a lot, so do we, but they've done something very similar, even worse, than what the Nazis did.
Hugo Chavez
Noam Chomsky has a book, which I read for the first time when I was in Spain, called 'Fear of Democracy'. There is your answer. Fear of democracy. In Honduras, they had a sham democracy. It was run by elites, what was called a liberal democracy, but in reality was a false democracy.
Hugo Chavez
I think developed countries - so-called developed countries - should reflect upon the way of living and the waste of energy.
Hugo Chavez
Mutual respect! That's what it takes to be friends.
Hugo Chavez
If the United States was mad enough to attack Iran or aggress Venezuela again the price of a barrel of oil could reach $150 or even $200.
Hugo Chavez
Convinced as I am and as I am from my government that the world needs a new moral architecture over all I believe that this should be the first topic to debate in our world of today, ethics, moral.
Hugo Chavez
Peoples of the Americas are rising once again, saying no to imperialism, saying no to fascism, saying no to intervention - and saying no to death.
Hugo Chavez
If the climate were a bank, they would already have saved it.
Hugo Chavez
Uruguay is one of the biggest producers of software. We are breaking with the neoliberal model. We do not believe in free trade.
Hugo Chavez
We have to re-invent socialism. It can't be the kind of socialism that we saw in the Soviet Union, but it will emerge as we develop new systems that are built on cooperation, not competition.
Hugo Chavez
I have always said, heard, that it would not be strange that there had been civilization on Mars, but maybe capitalism arrived there, imperialism arrived and finished off the planet.
Hugo Chavez
I do wish that the IMF and the World Bank would disappear soon.
Hugo Chavez
What they have implanted here, which is really a 'gringo' custom, is terrorism. They disguise children as witches and wizards, that is contrary to our culture.
Hugo Chavez
I shook Obama's hand and I said, 'I want to be your friend.' My hand is still outstretched. I am not Obama's enemy, but it's difficult not see imperialism in Washington. Those who don't see it don't want to see it, like the ostrich.
Hugo Chavez
