I do what I do because it is the right thing to do. I am a warrior, and it is the way of the warrior to fight superior odds.

The most powerful weapon in the world, as far as I'm concerned, is the camera.

You don't necessarily know you're consuming sugar when you're using store-bought salad dressing, or store-bought tomato sauce, or healthy granola bars. It's added to all these foods.

Exercise is essential for good health. But we can't exercise our way out of the obesity epidemic.

I have taken advantage of my husband, to the extent that I even got HBO to do a documentary with me.

Celebrities who lend their names to causes to raise lot of money for important issues should be admired and not marginalized and made fun of.

I got to talk about global warming on the No. 1 soap opera in the country.

When you go to pick your kids up from school, cars are lined up idling for anywhere from five to 20 minutes. Starting a 'no idling' rule in your school carpool lane could have a huge impact.

If you can't buy a hybrid car, your first question should be, 'What is the fuel economy of this car?'

You can love someone and not be able to live together.

It takes so much courage to get out of a marriage.

If you care about the health of the planet, you have to care about the health of its people, and if you really go deeper, it starts with the community of your family.

Scientists speak a certain language. Now there are regular extreme weather reports on the news. Hurricane Katrina was a huge connect-the-dot moment for a lot of people.

Everyone has a right to speak out.

Dealing with politicians, that's a little different. But government doesn't change until people demand it.

We are all victims of the marketing that says cooking is hard and takes too long, but that's simply not true. Scrambled eggs take five minutes to make.

It's one thing to have ice cream once in a while with your family, and quite another to eat foods on a regular basis that you don't even know are full of sugar.

When I was a little kid - and I don't know why - I was obsessed with littering. I'd yell at people in their cars if I saw someone throw paper or a cup out of their window.

I could spend my life focusing on getting rid of straws in our society.

I'm encouraged by what I'm seeing happening with more and more CEOs stepping up, saying, 'I have to fight carbon emissions.'

We're all environmentalists. People feel like, 'Well, if I drive an SUV, I guess I can't be someone who works on global warming issues,' and you can. You can! If you drive an SUV, you're still an environmentalist.

There was no social media really when 'Inconvenient Truth' came out. I wish we had Twitter and the power of that to help get the word out.

They are very different in terms of the solution. Where 'An Inconvenient Truth,' you really need countries to cooperate and sacrifice and figure out a solution, with 'Fed Up' you can leave the theater and you can be empowered that very night by cooking dinner in your very own kitchen.

The topic of global warming is so heavy that sometimes the only way you can open people's eyes is by greeting them with levity and self-deprecation first.
