So I'm seeing more and more a world that is not allowing us to have the conversation sufficiently that we need to have.

And regrettably, it means that at the level of international policy,

where we were talking about an international diplomacy and power relationships, that some of the things that ought to make common sense are ignored.

And then we only get to it when it becomes a crisis.

So there's so many things that we can do better.

And let's take climate.

Okay, they say that there's no climate crisis.

I think this weekend you guys are going to have 90 degree weather in the end of September when you really should be looking at moving to fall.

The reality is that whether we say it or not, the temperatures and the climate is not changing.

There's a clear difference of opinion between those now who say there's no crisis and those who are frightened as hell that this is the greatest existential crisis that the planet will face.

So how do you bridge this moment in time?

You've got to find a common love language.

What do I mean?

Methane.

is 80 times more dangerous than carbon.

We talk about carbon all the time.

But carbon stays in the atmosphere for hundreds of years.

Methane stays in the atmosphere for 12 to 15 years.

But it's 80 times more dangerous.

Methane is generated from gas leaks.
