"Panic is not any kind of mode to be in if you want to solve issues.”

“When it comes to global warming, it’s a problem. It’s not the end of the world.”

“I tend to see the world very much as a marginalized conversation, and I’m simply trying to set out some unpaniced advise that in a pretty panicked world can help us be a little smarter.”

“We don’t have enough resources to deliver everything to everyone.”
