George Monbiot słynne cytaty

Climate change, for example, is primarily about food and water... climate change presents the greatest of all threats to the future prospects of the poor. The rich will survive for a few decades at least, as they can use their money to insulate themselves from the effects. The poor are being hammered already. (ang.)
