I
think there is a big plus to getting the word out on issues if you have the spotlight
in some way. If you’re a famous person and you have opportunity to use that for
a good cause, I think that’s a good thing.
We,
who have so much, must do more to help those in need. And most of all, we must
live simply, so that others may simply live.
"This
is a deeply spiritual issue...Do we want to spend more time trying to care for
our fellow man or do we want to just pursue more virtual reality? That's the issue
before us.. and it's being played out in the world of the environment."
The
two most abundant forms of power on earth are solar and wind, and they're getting
cheaper and cheaper…
"Kids
can help the environment by riding a bike. Always wear a helmet of course and
stay in the bike lane. Take public transportation with your parents and your friends
and see if you like that. That’s a good way to get around. Start a home garden,
be energy efficient, turn off the lights and the water. All of those things are
very good for the environment and good for your pocketbook. "
"I
was a Boy Scout, and scouting gave me an appreciation for nature and the outdoors
that set the stage for my career as an environmental activist. The other thing
would be growing up in Los Angeles-the smog capital of the world for quite a while."
"I
can't imagine a right more basic than the right to breathe clean air. We've debated
for years how that might be possible. Now that we know it is, will we have the
courage and the conviction to get there?"
