Quotes by Ecosystems Alibaba is an ecosystem that helps small business to grow. Jack Ma small-business ecosystems helping As species are exterminated by shifting climate zones, ecosystems can collapse, destroying more species. James Hansen shifting climate ecosystems We're handing them [young people & future generations] a climate system which is potentially out of their control. We're in an emergency: you can see what's on the horizon over the next few decades with the effects it will have on ecosystems, sea level and species extinction James Hansen future ecosystems sea The more people you run into, the greater your exposure, the easier it is to understand and empathize with other people. So if you are living in a much smaller ecosystem, it's probably easier to have simpler feelings. James Scott ecosystems running people An artist may sustain a body of work as an ecosystem, in which every part is used to every advantage, not consuming any part without regenerating it. Jan Peacock ecosystems body artist Biomimicry is basically taking a design challenge and then finding an ecosystem that's already solved that challenge, and literally trying to emulate what you learn. Janine Benyus ecosystems design challenges There are three types of biomimicry - one is copying form and shape, another is copying a process, like photosynthesis in a leaf, and the third is mimicking at an ecosystem's level, like building a nature-inspired city. Janine Benyus copying ecosystems cities I oppose piracy and want to see intellectual property protected because that is what fosters and rewards innovation. But SOPA won't accomplish a meaningful reduction in piracy and causes massive collateral damage to the Internet ecosystem. Jared Polis innovation ecosystems meaningful I am really sobered by what's happening to ecosystems around our planet and to the wildlife that is to be found there. Jeff Corwin wildlife ecosystems found The continued existence of wildlife and wilderness is important to the quality of life of humans. Our challenge for the future is that we realize we are very much a part of the earth's ecosystem, and we must learn to respect and live according to the basic biological laws of nature. Jim Fowler ecosystems challenges law In an election like this one [in 2016], not only are voters dissatisfied, but where the foundations of our economy, our democracy, our ecosystem, and international war and peace are really crumbling and are really at grave risk for failing in many ways, we need desperately to have an honest public conversation about both the track record of where we've been, what are the critical problems we are facing and what it will take to solve them. Jill Stein ecosystems track war The ecosystem of our world is a closed system: it would run out of gas, collapse of its own weight. Joan D. Vinge ecosystems our-world running It is folly to think that we can destroy one species and ecosystem after another and not affect humanity. When we save species, we're actually saving ourselves. Joel Sartore ecosystems science thinking The wealth of any ecosystem is its perennials. The primal herbivore-predator-disturbance-rest dance is literally the breath and pulse of the earth. Grasses recycle oxygen far more efficiently than trees. The turnover is faster. Grass reaches out and turns solar energy into carbon. Tillage hyper-aerates the soil, burning out carbon. But because a plant creates bilateral symmetry at the soil horizon, it sloughs off root mass when the top gets chopped off. Joel Salatin ecosystems oxygen roots The current market ecosystem is not sustainable, and significant changes are coming one way or another. John Ramsay significant-change ecosystems way The more familiar people are with the ecosystem that lives below the surface - invisible until you're actually in the ocean - the more likely they are to do what they can to protect it. Jon Bowermaster ecosystems ocean people The Nile Project is the performing side of an effort that also includes education in music and environmental issues, raising awareness of the entire Nile basin as an ecosystem. With such vibrant music, the good intentions were a bonus; the Nile Project was a superb example of what I call small-world music, of what happens to traditions in the information age. Jon Pareles issues ecosystems effort Eventually we'll realize that if we destroy the ecosystem, we destroy ourselves. Jonas Salk environmental ecosystems realizing The nuclear peril is usually seen in isolation from the threats to other forms of life and their ecosystems, but in fact it should be seen at the very center of the ecological crisis, as the cloud-covered Everest of which the more immediate, visible kinds of harm to the environment are the mere foothills. Jonathan Schell environmental ecosystems clouds There is a massive ecosystem that has to get built that looks like a biosphere. And the various parts of that biosphere better be there.
