We have the ability to turn things around

“Floods happen, fires happen. They’ve been happening since day dot. So they are normal, but when you have these frequent events stacked on top of each other, that is not normal… As troubling as this is, it’s not too late. We have the ability to turn things around. And we have an obligation to protect and sustain communities and the environment. A major way of achieving that will be people putting pressure on governments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”
