Climate change constitutes a serious threat to global security, an immediate risk to our national security, and, make no mistake, it will impact how our military defends our country.

Barack Obama

'Years of Living Dangerously' is a wonderful opportunity to reach a lot of people with the story and importance of climate change in our lives; in recent history, there's no bigger threat to the quality of human life than what is taking place right now in respect of climate change.

Harrison Ford

It is manifestly in the interest of the United States to deal with the very real threat that climate change poses. And that's why President Obama has worked so hard to reduce our own emissions and to lead internationally in forging the Paris climate agreement.

Susan Rice

Climate change is and will be a significant threat to our national security and in a larger sense to life on earth as we know it to be.

Gordon R. Sullivan

Climate change remains the biggest threat to our civilisation, economy and security - even bigger than Brexit.

Ed Davey

It's in our interest to continue with the Paris Agreement and to deal with climate change as the real threat it actually is.

Susan Rice

Being told about the effects of climate change is an appeal to our reason and to our desire to bring about change. But to see that Africans are the hardest hit by climate change, even though they generate almost no greenhouse gas, is a glaring injustice, which also triggers anger and outrage over those who seek to ignore it.

Sigmar Gabriel

The most profound security threat we face today is global warming....climate change has the capacity to change the way all of us live.

William J. Clinton

Climate change constitutes a serious threat to global security.

Barack Obama

Greenhouse gas pollution, through its contribution to global climate change, presents a significant threat to Americans health and to the environment upon which our economy and security depends.

Gina McCarthy

Climate change poses a serious threat to global prosperity, security and wellbeing.

Layla Moran

Our military leaders have studied the climate change issue and now believe that mitigating climate change is an urgent national security issue.

Ted Lieu

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

James Lovelock

Other ways of looking at the environmental or climate change stuff is to frame it in the context that it is simultaneously a public health issue. One out of eight premature deaths worldwide happens because of air pollution. The worst power plant in America kills 278 people a year and causes 445 heart attacks. So, when we improve air quality we improve our lives, and at the same time we improve the climate as well. We must see climate policy from this perspective and not as an abstract threat that may threaten our survival in 100 years.

Michael Bloomberg

Without global action on climate change, Bhutan's tourist and agricultural-based economy faces an acute threat from climate change.

Brian Deese

Climate change is not a distant problem. It's involved in all of our lives through the stuff that we use, buy and eat - which is not to say that individuals like you and me are responsible for climate change.
