"The one message that comes out very clearly is that the world has to adapt and the world has to mitigate ... and the sooner we do that, the less the chances of some of the worst impacts of climate change being faced in different parts of the world.".
Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
"It sounds really scary and my main concern about it, isn't so much that it is unrealistic but rather that it spurns a sense of hopelessness. I think whatever we need to do is really push back on that and find empowering ways to engage with youth that focus on building a really positive future with green jobs, focus on alternatives, and renewables rather than the dirty based track we are currently on."
Kelsey Mech, Chair of the University of Victoria's Student Society
