… I just remember crying about it …

Quote of the Day — 14 February 2011 (Valentine’s Day)

“I remember when I was 7 and my dad showed me the front page article of the Miami Herald about climate change. And it said something about how in 75 years … the world was going to end. Now I’m sure the Miami Herald didn’t print that, but as a 7-year-old, that’s what I understood and I just remember crying about it.”

… “I think it’s important to recognize that you didn’t always have the knowledge in the past generations that we do today … And I like to think that if they did have the knowledge, then maybe they would have made different choices.”
