"We have been totally overridden by a preoccupation with the economy, and this appears to me to be suicidal. The whole world is riding in a giant car, and we’re headed at a brick wall at 100 mph, and everyone is arguing about where they want to sit ... Someone, for God’s sake, has got to say, ‘We’re headed for a brick wall! Put on the brakes and turn the wheel!’ Unfortunately, the people who are saying that are locked in the trunk." – David Suzuki, environmental scientist
