The Millenium Development Goals, agreed to by every member country of the United Nations in 2000, call for the worldwide eradication of poverty and hunger, universal education, gender equality and huge improvements in health by 2015: two years ago!!
Can we do this without making the planet warmer?
Let's think big and imagine how we can confront the climate crisis in a way that is realistic about the other major problems that we face as a planet and as a species on it.

Nuclear Fission or Fusion reactors
We can make nuclear reactors that don't produce (radioactive) waste as any element that that is above iron produces energy when broken apart using fission so you can break apart many different types of non-radioactive materials to make energy. On the other hand we can use Fusion to fuse elements up to Iron and produce energy with (nearly) no waste.
-You cannot use iron as it doesn't make energy when you fuse or spilt it
