“Our oil-based society depends on non-renewable resources. It requires relentless probing into vast reaches of pristine land, sacrificing vital bioregions, and irreplaceable cultures. The possibility of catastrophic climate change is substantially increased by the 40 million barrels of oil burned every day by vehicles. We must all move shoulder to shoulder in a unified front to show this administration that the true majority of people are willing to vote for a cleaner environment and won't back down.” PeopleShowsMovingCultureMillionsEnvironmentSacrificeLandFrontsPossibilityWillingDependsResourcesVoteMajorityClimateClimate ChangeOilShouldersAdministrationVehicleBurnedEcologyRelentlessBarrelsCleanersUnifiedIrreplaceablePristineProbingRenewable Resources Author:Leonardo DiCaprio

“The gap between the rich and poor is growing among and within most nations. The political and social effects of unequal location of energy and other mineral resources are acute. Population numbers continue to climb. The global environment shows signs of widespread deterioration. Both natural and social environments are increasingly vulnerable to catastrophic disturbances...
