Christian Vegetarian Association Presents:
Take Heart!
Global Warming Increases Poverty Worldwide

Science is clear: if we don’t curb greenhouse gas emissions global warming is going to cause much hardship globally. One of the catastrophic effects of global warming is the increase in poverty worldwide, especially in those poor countries were poverty rates already are very high. Climate change is causing extreme heat waves, declining global food stocks, loss of ecosystems and biodiversity, life-threatening sea level rise and water shortages.  Jim Yong Kim, World Bank President states, “We will never end poverty if we don’t tackle climate change. It is one of the single biggest challenges to social justice today.”
