It’s like that old saying, “Teach a man to read, and you teach an individual. Teach a woman to read, and you teach a community.” Giving women an equal voice in this debate is key to getting the community engaged so we can make some headway on not just climate change, but many other environmental issues as well.

Women should have a seat at the table not only because they stand to lose so much, but also because women are naturally more risk averse. It’s been proven that giving women not just token roles but truly equal participation can balance out any decision process, in order to govern more effectively – whether it is a government or a corporation.
Stick that in your oil drum and smoke it!

Thank you for the summation.
