Carl Sagan on the silver lining behind solving our global environmental issues

[cosmoslady]

Oh man would he be disappointed right now if he were still alive.

He was sounding the alarm decades before we took these problems seriously!👌🏿👌🏿

Carl Sagan is a visionary. He is so very articulate and gives such a holistic view of things as they are that there sometimes take the breath away. He is such a positive person who has been hopeful for our species. He comes from the same species that f***ed up this exquisite fragile planet.

He would be appalled at how things have turned out .

[kimdurig]

Read Cosmos when it first came out and it blew me away .

[Doug]

There is no scientist alive today who compares with Carl Sagan.

[jizim]

We had this guy and didn't listen to him

[pedroadro]

Sadly missed... we need more people like Carl Sagan.

[johnhiggins]

This should be played too all powerful nations who can still effect the change we all need and now demand

[PoseidonViv]

Man I wish we could get this dude back

[ashraf]

What a gem of a guy....sorely missed. !!

[tmashadi]

We have gone backwards consistently; especially during this past decade

[mobiusone]

The only man who could get a room full of politicians to shut up and listen

[jp]

Most people haven't even set foot outside of their own countries and can't even imagine what their lives will look like beyond their next pay cheque. To think about global issues that span beyond the space and time that they understand is an impossible task. We must first resolve any domestic, social issues that affect people personally before they even have the time to tackle global issues.

[johnmcclean]

Words of wisdom Carl fast forward today we haven't listened and honestly our species doesn't deserve it.

I envy Dr. Sagan that he doesn't have to experience how we are doomed because of the conservatism of the ignorant.

[lumabi]

Before we can fix environmental problems we first have to conquer the human ego. I'm not optimistic.

[nandinirampuri]

Wow!! I want to be part of this movement! I always dream of global unity & peace and a thriving planet earth. But don’t know how to bring about that change & just simply go about doing what best I can do for myself & my family!

[Luis-zupb]

We ignore these lessons at our own peril. Floridians just went for a little swim due to Ian; storms that are ever increasing in scale and power. But the captains of ignorance and stupidity soldier on. Chest beating and bravado have replaced reason and logic with bluster and bullshit!

[OldmanNix]

Politicians however have become proficient more than ever before at dividing. Thus we are conquered. To what end? All they do is stifle dialogue. What does that accomplish? I fail to see it.
