My main issue is sustainability of the Earth, and protection of those animals and people who dwell here. -- Lynda Resnick
Genetic design is something we can use to fight the lack of sustainability we humans are forcing on the earth's environment. -- Craig Venter
Sustainability, ensuring the future of life on Earth, is an infinite game, the endless expression of generosity on behalf of all. -- Paul Hawken
Earth Day should encourage us to reflect on what we are doing to make our planet a more sustainable and livable place. -- Scott Peters
We have an economy that tells us that it is cheaper to destroy Earth in real time rather than renew, restore, and sustain it. -- Paul Hawken
On Earth, we still have a beautiful atmosphere that precisely maintains a thermally driven climatic system that shelters, shields and sustains our natural treasures. -- Jay Inslee

Almost all of the water on Earth is salt water, and the remaining freshwater supplies are split between agricultural use and human use - as well as maintaining the existing natural environment. -- Jamais Cascio
I do definitely believe that there is life away from this planet. I mean, we've kind of established that with the fact that we found bacteria on meteorites, and we've kind of used that to backtrack and show how this Earth, this planet, could have formed the ability to sustain life in the first place. -- Corey Taylor
I can't even consider the prospect of grandchildren because I don't know if there will be anything left for them on Earth. That's how serious the problem is.

Christianity is sustained by the knowledge that the object of man's life on earth is his development as an eternal being. Therefore, none of his expressions of life can be an end in itself, but must serve a higher purpose than the earthly life and happiness of the individual - or even than that of the race. -- Ellen Key
Why did the earthquake and tsunami occur in Japan? Was it the act of an angry God? No, it was the result of the movement and collision of the earth's tectonic plates - a process driven by the earth's need to regulate its own internal temperature. Without the process that creates earthquake, our planet could not sustain life. -- Adam Hamilton
As a culture or a civilisation, we are a bit juvenile; it's like 'Oh, I have all this power, whoa, this is so cool, I can transform the earth and I can produce all this wealth. But we're blinded by our success in a naive way. There's more to life, actually, and I think the sustainability issue is also helpful in reminding us about that. -- Tino Sehgal
Sustainability is treating ourselves and our environment as if we are to live on this earth forever. -- Arron Wood
