Angel Kyodo Williams speaks on climate change, connecting the roots of climate change to racism, white-skin privilege and hegemony, and an economic system...
"We have a brief window of opportunity to take action, to preserve humanity from imminent disaster, and to assist the survival of the many diverse and beautiful forms of life on Earth. Future generations, and the other species that share the biosphere with us, have no voice to ask for our compassion, wisdom, and leadership. We must listen to their silence. We must be their voice, too, and act on their behalf."
From "The Time to Act is Now - A Buddhist Declaration on Climate Change"
