Wouldn ' t this be a skewed statistic since they have almost 20 % of the world ' s population ?

All they ever say is don ' t do that do something else that fits vaguely with these emotions I ' m expressing . <| sep |> The point I ' m trying to make is your choice of focus often determines your impact . I was in Santiago a few years ago with MBA students . The host made a long speech about all the great things they are doing to combat climate change . This in a country where half the population lives in poverty and can ' t read . They were spending millions on dubious programs while the kids outside our fancy hotel were begging in the streets . Let ' s focus on education and poverty . not only does that eliminate real suffering now , but in the long run that does way more to improve the environment . Another thing to think about . is that every substantial change in environmental policy came as a result of public health concerns . Fuck the polar bears .
