Climate-Smart World within reach: World Bank
Yesterday, the World Bank released: World Development Report 2010: Development and Climate Change: it says a "Climate-Smart" world is within reach if we act now, act together, and act differently. It is possible to shift to a low-carbon future while reducing poverty and promoting development in developing countries: however, financial and technical assistance is needed from high income countries like Canada and the US.
It's just one more example to show that people who are still are not taking action on climate change seriously are off track with most of the leaders around the world.
I feel hopeful to see that the most respected economic advisors around the world keep telling us the same thing: we can change the world, but we have to work together.
