Global Poverty, Education, and hunger are greater issues than global warming/ climate change
I see that you have forfeited the round. This argument is important to me so I would like to ask what I can do in order to convince you. That is, what can I do, as a debater, to change your mind and make you believe me? All you have to do is tell me what that is and I will go and get it. I would also like to provide more evidence: In a TED talk by Bill Gates called "Innovating to Zero," the richest man on earth describes the movement towards Zero C02 emissions by 2050. The way that this will happen is through the expansion of renewable energy infrastructure. Now, in reference to this talk, Bill Gates claims that this effort will also greatly reduce poverty as an extra beneficial result. The biggest reason why this is true is because renewable energy structures, in areas of poverty, will greatly increase the standard of living. This is because small villages and communities of extreme poverty are not usually anywhere near an energy grid.
