Climate Change: On September 4, 2019, CNN ran seven hours of Climate Change Town Hall programming with ten of the Democratic Presidential Candidates, focused on the Climate Crisis. The intentions of the candidates are admirable, but their lack of knowledge on the details of cost-effective solutions is apparent based on their repeated focus on solar, wind, and electric cars over energy efficiency measures for commercial buildings.

Climate change is one of the most important issues facing the world today. With a near-constant stream of articles and reports stating that the timeline in which climate change can be reversed is narrowing, the pressure for businesses to do something is mounting. Many companies are reluctant to embrace the sort of large-scale changes needed to combat climate change, citing cost as a major issue.

According to the United Nations’s recent report on climate change, the inefficient use of land in agricultural practices and the heavy reliance on animal products for food is severely depleting the environment and is exacerbating climate change. Humans’ need for food makes this source of waste and carbon emissions extremely dangerous and a priority in reforming worldwide practices to mitigate the effects of climate change.

In the past few years, numerous world aid agencies and foundations have pin-pointed the African country Ethiopia as a priority regarding increased efforts to make the agricultural industry more sustainable. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) have made the improvement of Ethiopian agriculture a part of their sustainable development goals (SDGs), and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation have philanthropically devoted time and money to the agricultural economy in Ethiopia.
