Richard Branson's words of Wisdom

Richard Branson of the Virgin Group Limited speaking at the Clinton Global Initiative. "We must not be the generation for irreversibly damaging the environment." We "must wean ourselves off coal and fossil fuels." "Our generation has the knowledge, the financial resources, and as important it has the will power to do so."

With commited people like Mr. Branson leading the way, businesses will join with governments and make radical Shifts in the way things are done. It has begun and will grow exponentially. We can clean up and green up, while creating jobs and profits for companies. Many are realizing that without an environment that is sustainable, our stock, gold and jobs will all be worthless.

People are so damn stupid. To think that we could have an effect on the earth is insane. The earth has been through much more destructive things than us pesky humans, and it will long be here when us humans are gone. Thats right folks, we are going away.

@DieSheepleDie

Yes, our planet has been through lots of things that have been more destructive then what us humans have done over the years, and the Earth will survive, but if you think we haven't had an effect on the planet in ways that effect humanity in negative ways, then I'd have to say, you are 100% wrong, and it would be very easy to prove.

@DieSheepleDie really you sound like you already know the future what you are saying is not wrong but you should also acknowlage that our technology could go beyond planets one day

@DieSheepleDie

My response to you is your an idiot.

[simkay1]

@DieSheepleDie..............yo­u’re comment completely contradicts itself and is insane as you clearly are!....EVEN if what you’re saying is true...yes the earth may survive but would be damaged for the next life form and yes we wont be around forever but id certainly like to pro long my existence for as long as possible....but you obviously don’t care about youre (probably miserable life) or the lives of others....so what AM I saying!

@DieSheepleDie Sure, so you want to human be gone faster?

Regardless of what influence we have on a planet, I prefer to live in a clean city/environment with a clean air and not in some garbage pit.

By the way, have you ever been above a continent at night - between 20-23 o'clock? Definitely you cant' see humans there underneath you. But you can see what impact they are making....

It is just a very difficult number to comprehend and imagine - 6,000,000,000 (and more already).

& Atom bombs...

@DieSheepleDie somone been watching George Colin ;)

[missionpupa]

@DieSheepleDie you need to stop listening to the narrow minded george carlin, take my advice.

we no longer have a "natural" impact on the earth. were discovering, producing and creating elements and substances that normally would not exist in this world. our brains adapted quickly than anything this earth expected, earth like anything in the universe has an end. it will live and it will die, you dont need a book to know this, just a functioning brain.

A few billion dollars is pocket change for Sir Richard, and he will get lots of government benefits and profits, but most people make that sound like a bad thing. If he weren't going to benefit from his efforts, why would he bother? We need more captains of industry like Branson to blaze a trail to advancement of alternative energy and private space travel. If anything, Mr. Branson sets a good example that we all should follow in terms of clean energy and promoting positive change.
