Apple CEO Tim Cook to the class of 2019: 'My generation has failed you' (via CNBCMakeIt)
"You don't need to look far to find an example of that failure," Cook said, referring to New Orleans, where he was speaking."Here today, in this very place, where thousands once found desperate shelter from a hundred-year disaster — the kind that seem to be happening more and more frequently — I don't think we can talk about who we are as people and what we owe to one another without talking about climate change," Cook said.
"The coastal communities, including some right here in Louisiana, that are also making plans to leave behind the places they have called home for generations and head for higher ground. The fisherman who nets come up empty. The wildlife preserves with less wildlife to preserve, the marginalized, for whom a natural disaster can mean enduring poverty.""Whatever you do, don't make the mistake of being too cautious," said Cook.
