Philip Ball：当前气候和环境危机对人类繁荣构成巨大挑战，如何避免绝望和冷漠，并调动人力资源应对危机是关键问题。 Katharine Hayhoe：气候变化是人类繁荣道路上的主要障碍，它加剧了贫困、粮食短缺等问题，但积极应对气候变化也能带来清洁能源、改善健康等益处。应对气候变化刻不容缓，因为它关系到人类的未来。 David DeSteno：人们倾向于忽视未来的威胁并追求即时满足，而解决气候问题需要人们做出牺牲。培养感激和同情等积极情绪有助于人们做出更可持续的决策，促进全球合作。 Dekila Chungyalpa：不同宗教信仰群体在应对气候变化方面存在共同点，即对相互依赖和相互关联性的认识，以及对集体主义方法的需求。宗教团体可以发挥重要作用，因为其自然而然地具备集体主义的思维方式，以及培养感激和同情等情绪的能力。宗教信仰和实践能够促进利他主义和对自然的敬畏，从而改变人们的决策方式。
