“In addition to the very costly effects on human health, infrastructure and natural resources that we rely upon, I am very concerned about the accumulating loss of other species catalyzed by climate disruption. Drawdown practices must be widely implemented, in addition to drastically reduced output of greenhouse gases. A fossil fuel industry fund must be established to distribute the trillions of dollars needed to counteract their effects.”
