We will not overcome world poverty unless we manage climate change successfully. I’ve spent my life as a development economist, and it’s crystal clear that we succeed or fail on winning the battle against world poverty and managing climate change together. If we fail on one, we fail on the other.

We can look back through ice-core data and see over 800,000 years, relationships between carbon dioxide and the temperature of the world.
