Stewart Brand emphasizes that sustainability is not about living poorly but about creating a more abundant life through the elimination of waste. He pinpoints humans, not the environment, as the ones truly at risk from climate change, which he attributes to a century of poor choices. He advocates for awareness through initiatives like Earth911 posters, encouraging everyday accountability to protect the planet and rethink our impact on its future.
"A sustainable life doesn't mean an impoverished existence, it creates abundance by eliminating waste."
"It is people, not nature or the planet, who are at risk. The Climate Crisis is a risk we brought upon ourselves through more than a century of bad decisions."
