DESCRIPTION

Any sort of comprehensive and effective solution to climate change can only be achieved through widespread and affordable access to green technology. Alternative energy technology and resources often aren’t readily accessible to poorer nations, as Andrew Charlton knows, making it difficult for world leaders to make any sort of substantial progress in the fight against a warmer and growingly unsustainable climate.

Free Trade

Fair Trade practices, as outlined by Andrew Charlton, are essential to not onlyenhancing development in poorer nations, but also to engage and involve themmore thoroughly in the discussion of climate change. Fair trade is important to boththe reduction in global poverty, and to the creation of stronger and more meaningfulrelationships between richer and poorer nations, which can then lead to thedevelopment of tangible solutions to the ever-increasing problem of global climatechange.

Poverty

An increasingly global economy requires even the richest of nations to be engaged on the issue of poverty. By opening up doors of free and fair trade to poorer nations, richer countries can help to remedy the economic imbalances that lead to such problems as overpopulation, lack of education and scarcity of food.

Educational Opportunity

Making progress on any issue, whether that be systemic poverty, free trade, green technologies, climatechange and more, is impossible without an educated public. By working towards providing bettereducational opportunities to the people of poorer nations, wealthy countries are taking a very criticalstep towards a more informed and involved global populous; one that not only understands the issues,but that is also better equipped to take action in the development of real, lasting solutions. Makeinformation more accessible and available, as Andrew Charlton knows, is key to tackling and solving theproblems that impact us all, as well as to the creation of a cleaner and healthier environment that will besustainable for all future generations.
