As we pump greenhouse gases into our atmosphere, the ocean absorbs carbon dioxide, making the seawater acidic and hostile for shellfish and corals.

As the oceans get hotter, corals also become heat-stressed and expel the algae that live on their skeletons, resulting in coral bleaching events that can wipe out entire reefs. This destroys the habitat that supports a quarter of all marine life.

Thanks to David Attenborough and 'Blue Planet 2,' we've become aware of the damage to our oceans from plastic pollution. We now know to use textile shopping bags instead of plastic, reuse coffee-cups and refuse polystyrene ones, and avoid plastic straws when ordering a drink at the bar.

We must commit to a positive programme of ocean recovery to combat the effects of climate breakdown, and boost our oceans' capacity to tackle climate change.

The future can be just and green - not corruption-mired and polluted.

Science tells us we need to keep the majority of fossil fuels in the ground, and that we must urgently invest in renewable energy, and other alternative industries. Doing so would create millions of jobs, ensure a fair transition for fossil fuel workers into new industries, and avert the most catastrophic climate breakdown.

A Brexit that works for Britain needs to work for small businesses and must ensure that our future trade deals don't just work for big business.

The Tories' favoured trade deals post-Brexit are likely to make regional inequality worse, by focusing on the best deal for the City of London at the expense of smaller firms across the country.

Dictators have an old trick to assess the strength of their opposition: they say something patently untrue, and then look to see who mindlessly repeats it. Those who do, they recognise as their true supporters.

World leaders need to work together through the rules-based system of the WTO to tackle unfair practices, including the widespread dumping of steel on world markets at less than market price.

It appears that President Trump wishes to disrupt the global multilateral trading system as much as possible.

Normally I am clear beforehand about which single proposal in a binary choice I am going to vote for.

The Tories must stop focusing on their ideological obsession with a hard Brexit and their internal party divisions and start focusing on what is best for our country and our economy. Their absurd proposal that the U.K. should become the E.U.'s tariff collector is neither practical nor palatable across the Channel.

MPs should be able to debate, amend and approve a mandate for the negotiation of any trade agreement before talks start, based on an independent impact assessment of what social, economic and environmental risks might be expected.

Labour believes that every trade deal should come before parliament for a full debate on the floor of the House of Commons, with a vote at the end of that debate.

Treaties negotiated with foreign powers create binding obligations on future generations that cannot be repealed in the way that domestic law can. As a consequence, the most rigorous process should be in place to scrutinise such treaties before they ever come to be ratified.

Most trade agreements arise from a desire to liberalise trade - making it easier to sell goods and services into one another's markets. Brexit will not.

Labour must evince a positive vision for the future of our country outside the E.U. One that is consistent with the leave voters' objectives, without sacrificing our rights and protections, as the Conservatives threaten to do.

Financial decision-makers at every level are recognising that fossil fuel investments risk their returns being undermined by stranded assets.

We need to be investing in the low-carbon technologies that are creating the apprenticeships and skilled jobs of the future.

The more we engage with others, the more we find people with whom we do not share the values and truths that we consider so fundamental. In virtual places, by contrast, we are able to select the precise individuals with whom we associate to ensure that we obtain the affirmation we require.

Pluralism has been the driving fact behind political theory now since the Copernican revolution and the wars of religion that were spawned from it.

Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.

We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

I have a total irreverence for anything connected with society except that which makes the roads safer, the beer stronger, the food cheaper and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer.

He who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god.

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable.

Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.

There is no such thing as society: there are individual men and women, and there are families.

I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There's no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it.

Society as a whole benefits immeasurably from a climate in which all persons, regardless of race or gender, may have the opportunity to earn respect, responsibility, advancement and remuneration based on ability.

We have to talk about liberating minds as well as liberating society.

All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded the individual.

Society is always taken by surprise at any new example of common sense.

If one could only teach the English how to talk, and the Irish how to listen, society here would be quite civilized.

Nobody cared about Baron Davis for so long, and then all of a sudden, it's like all these articles are coming out. People are passing judgment or thinking they know me.

It was always like there was no doubt in anybody's mind that I was going to UCLA, so once UCLA started recruiting me, everybody started pushing me there.

UCLA is my heart, man. Crossroads changed my life, UCLA made my life.

UCLA takes care of me. I'm a Bruin for life.

I want to create resolution and inclusion, so I created Black Santa because his eyes see no color.

I love basketball; I play every day.

Where I'm from, you don't really travel outside your neighborhood unless you're traveling with a bunch of people.

I always had my basketball. So when I showed up at the playground, everybody knew what I wanted to do.

My grandmother knew nothing about sports. She still didn't even when I went to the NBA. She never really cared too much about sports. She only cared about me being a good person.

A lot of times getting double- or triple-teamed, like triangle-and-two, it just made me be more of an all-around player.

When you're 20 and going to the draft, everybody is telling you what you should wear. I kind of succumbed to peer pressure on that one.

I'm like a kid, so I try to avoid haircuts as much as possible.

Paul Feig has an incredible style that represents who he is. He wears a suit to work every day.

If the Clippers need me, I could come in there and turn it around.
