More quotes by Paul Watson
Almost all theological thought is anthropocentric and I just cannot buy into the anthropocentric ideology. Basically we're a bunch of conceited apes.
Paul Watson
Follow your dreams and use your natural born talents and skills to make this a better world for tomorrow.
Paul Watson
In other words, people should be placed in parks within ecosystems instead of parks placed in human communities. We need vast areas of the planet where humans do not live at all and where other species are free to evolve without human interference. We need to radically and intelligently reduce human populations to fewer than one billion.
Paul Watson
Back in 1980, whale watching surpassed whaling as an industry. Now it's worth about four times as much. Whale watching provides far, far more jobs to people than whaling ever did. Whale watching has become an ally in the fight to end whaling.
Paul Watson
Be a voice for the future and a voice for the planet.
Paul Watson
We need to stop burning fossil fuels and utilize only wind, water, and solar power with all generation of power coming from individual or small community units like windmills, waterwheels, and solar panels. Sea transportation should be by sail...Air transportation should be by solar powered blimps when air transportation is necessary.
Paul Watson
Well lose more species of plants and animals between 2000 and 2065 than weve lost in the last 65 million years. If we dont find answers to these problems, were gonna be victims of this extinction event that were at fault for.
Paul Watson
We don't give a damn what you or anybody else on this planet thinks. We didn't sink those ships for you. We did it for the whales.
Paul Watson
We are literally eating the oceans alive and there are simply not enough fish to continue to feed an ever expanding population of humanity.
Paul Watson
There is a lack of economic and political motivation to defend life in the oceans. The profit is made by companies exploiting the oceans and they have the money to buy the politicians who make the laws.
Paul Watson
I've had a lot of disappointments. I think my biggest disappointment is the failure of elected officials to make good on their promises in regards to the environment or anything else, really. I have very little faith in politicians.
Paul Watson
We buy a bottle of water in the city, where clean water comes out in its taps. You know, back in 1965, if someone said to the average person, You know in thirty years you are going to buy water in plastic bottles and pay more for that water than for gasoline? Everybody would look at you like youre completely out of your mind.
Paul Watson
It doesn't matter what is true, it only matters what people believe is true.
Paul Watson
You cannot commit an act of violence against a non-sentient object, only against a living thing.
Paul Watson
It doesn't matter what is true it only matters what people believe is true... You are what the media define you to be. [Greenpeace] became a myth and a myth-generating machine.
Paul Watson
My position is this. If we can't protect sanctuaries, if we can't save the whales, the sharks, the fish, our oceans will die.
Paul Watson
I got the impression that instead of going out to shoot birds, I should go out and shoot the kids who shoot birds.
Paul Watson
WE CAN NOT LIVE ON THIS PLANET WITH DEAD OCEANS. IF OUR OCEANS DIE, WE DIE.
Paul Watson
We are killing our host the planet Earth.... I was once severely criticized for describing human beings as being the 'AIDS of the Earth.' I make no apologies for that statement.... We need to radically and intelligently reduce human populations to fewer than one billion.
Paul Watson
I have hope that humanity will be cured of our collective ecological insanity and that we adapt to living within the boundaries of the laws of ecology.
