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.

Transportation
Transportation is a big contributor to CO2 emissions but there aren't many eco-friendly alternatives available. Electric cars for example are very expensive which means most of the public doesn't have access to them. If there were easier or cheaper ways to make electric vehicles they would be able to be sold for cheaper and this could lead to a significant decrease in the amount of pollutants cars emit.
I agree. I think that electric cars should be cheaper. In the next decade if the prices don't lower I think we should go to the city or government and protest. All they want is their money, but they don't think about others and that the world is struggling and it's getting worse. We need to take action before this gets out of our hands.
I agree with your statement. Transportation is a huge contributor to CO2 emissions and electric cars should be way cheaper. In the upcoming years, if car companies, don't decrease the prices of electric cars, we should all come together and protest against the government. The general public needs electric cars if we want to significantly decrease the levels of CO2 emissions.
I 100% agree with your statement. Electric cars for now are selling at a really high price, but for an alternative you can ride a bike or use a bus if possible. Even though buses commit CO2 it's much more eco friendly than cars because buses carries tons of people at a time unlike cars which only carries a certain amount of people. It's only a matter of time before more companies starts making electric cars. Planes on the other hand does not have an alternative. maybe in the future they could make a eco friendly plane.
