Thoughtfulness begins with seeing. My job as a photographer is to make that seeing easier. What we appreciate, what fascinates us, we will also want to preserve.” – Mattias Klum
“We are the first generation with the knowledge that we humans constitute a geological force on a planetary scale. Our stewardship of all natural systems on Earth will determine our own future.” – Johan Rockström
