James Lovelock Climate Quotations

Geological change usually takes thousands of years to happen but we are seeing the climate changing not just in our lifetimes but also year by year.

All the modelling we do shows that the climate is poised on the jump up to a new hot state. It is accelerating so fast that you could say that we are already in it.

The climate is doing its usual tricks. There's nothing much really happening yet. We were supposed to be halfway toward a frying world now.

Climate change now represents so urgent a threat to mankind that the only way to deal with it is by suspending democracy.

By the end of this century, climate change will reduce the human population to a few breeding pairs surviving near the Arctic.

Humans are too stupid to prevent climate change from radically impacting on our lives over the coming decades.
