Climate-Linked Poverty

http://allafrica.com/stories/201511302808.html
80% of the labor industry in Africa is dedicated to farming and fishing. With difficult climate conditions, due to global warming, it is imperative that policy makers not only come up with a plan to prevent further global warming but to also come up with a plan to help the massive job industry of farming and fishing in Africa. Not only is this the ethical thing to do, but it is also important to the rest of the world since Africa exports much of its produce. The World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim is working on a plan to restore "...degraded land to financing hydropower dams and creating jobs for refugees, the world needs to come up with more innovative solutions to the linked challenges of climate change" (Rowling). Because this plan costs about $16.1 billion he is asking for help from other first world countries. The World Bank is contributing $5.7 billion but it is clearly not enough but a little help from everyone can go a long way. Further, YOU could also help by taking steps to prevent global warming from getting worse such as eating less meat, carpooling and drinking tap water in place of water bottles.
