" I’m no sceptic when it comes to climate change. There’s no doubt in my mind that this is the greatest challenge of our time–and that time is running out. What I am sceptical about, however, is the fatalistic rhetoric of collapse. Of the notion that we humans are inherently selfish, or worse, a plague upon the earth. I’m sceptical when this notion is peddled as ‘realistic’, and I’m sceptical when we’re told there’s no way out. "
