An interesting focus:
Those who live in poverty:• contribute very little to global warming-yet–

• are most frequently devastated by it’s effects: flooding, drought, famine, loss of species, and

• have the least means to adapt to the devastation caused–as we saw with Hurricane Katrina.

• The people of the United States contribute a disproportionate amount of carbon emissions: 25%, while being only 5% of the world population.

The Crisis is NOW.
