“The good intentions of participants of 350.org aside, requesting world leaders to reduce carbon emissions is unfortunately not going to work. Bill McKibben asserts that world leaders will listen “if we’re loud enough,” but that’s simply untrue.

An immediate and serious threat to their wealth and well-being will make them listen.” - Stephanie McMillan, Code Green
