The full TED Talk by the TODAY weatherman on the 'existential threat' of climate change has been released.
"We’re getting used to bad air quality," Al said in his talk."And in fact, the intensity from these frequent wildfires has led to the deterioration of our lifestyle, our air quality, loss of property and crops. It is just really one of these things that is changing how we live."
Al also spoke about tens of millions of people most likely being displaced by climate change in the next 30 years, and its negative effect on our national security and people with outdoor occupations."We need to stop thinking about that green, lush lawn," he said."Let’s rethink that to using more shrubbery, more brushes, more drought-resistant plants. It’s called xeriscaping.
He spoke against fast fashion, the process of producing quick and disposable clothing to capitalize on trends. "It’s cheap, quick, mass-produced fashions that are meant to be discarded, fill up our landfills, cause pollution because of the dyes that are used," Al said."So what you end up doing is adding to landfills and spending a lot of money. Instead, find good, durable, sustainable clothing that’s going to last more than one season and you help reduce our landfills and causing more problems.""You have to be engaged," he said.
