"Climate Scientists are the modern world's version of the Hebrew Prophets. Too often, just like those prophets, they are misunderstood as predicting an unchangeable future. They are doing no such thing, and only telling us about the consequences of our actions if we continue with business as usual and don't make radical change. The future is open, and is being written by our choices today." - Rabbi Moshe Givental
