00:00We see things that the climate scientists of 20 years ago were not predicting what
00:08occurs so soon.
00:11First people deny there's a problem.
00:15Then they deny that there's a solution.
00:18Then they tell you that it's too expensive.
00:20It is a battle to prevent powerful people from spoiling the environment.
00:27Anybody who doesn't understand this is not paying attention to the data.
00:31The assertion that global warming is occurring, it's really a hoax.
00:36How dumb could you be?
00:37We do have a clock in front of us.
00:41Coal contributes to four out of the five leading causes of death in the United States.
00:45There was actually six neighbors who had brain tumors in about a 10 house ban.
00:52In countries with a heavy reliance on natural resources, you can see lagging development,
00:58high levels of inequality, massive corruption.
01:03When we talk about feeding the world, we have to ask, feeding the world what?
01:07There are literally billions of animals being raised for food.
01:11It's pretty shocking when you think of the vast destruction of the forest.
01:16Everything that Walt grew or flew is annihilated.
01:20What's more criminal than anything else is that we have alternatives that are available
01:24today.
01:28This is a crisis, but it's a huge opportunity because we can shift the way we live.
01:32Phenomenal things are happening.
01:35There's a whole series of changes in the way cars are being built.
01:39Solar and wind, that's going to be our primary source of energy.
01:43People who eat heavily plant-based diets have lower rates of obesity, lower rates of cancer.
01:54What is required is an integrated effort.
02:00This is a gigantic struggle for the future of the world.
