• Who can stop climate change? We can. You and you and you, and me. And it is not just that we can stop it, we have a responsibility to do so that began in the genesis of humanity, when God commanded the earliest human inhabitants of the Garden of Eden, "to till it and keep it". To "keep" it; not to abuse it, not to make as much money as possible from it, not to destroy it.

• Debemos actuar ahora y despertar a nuestras obligaciones morales. Los pobres y vulnerables son miembros de la familia de Dios y son los más gravemente afectados por las sequías, las altas temperaturas, las inundaciones de las ciudades costeras y los fenómenos meteorológicos más graves e impredecibles derivados del cambio climático. Nosotros, que deberíamos haber sido administradores responsables preservando nuestro vulnerable y frágil planeta hogar, hemos sido derrochadores sin sentido a través de nuestro consumismo imprudente, devorando recursos naturales irremplazables.

In order to address any major cause of human suffering, we have to work together across many fronts.
