Read "The Classic Slum" by Robert Roberts, Oxford press.
The slum terraced houses he wrote about in Salford city UK were replaced by high-rise which are now slums with people existing in them just as uneducated as their grandparents were. Meanwhile square miles of those Corrie terraces still exist and nearly all the pubs that serve them are taken over by drug dealers!
People fear to walk at night.
It's education that matters!
I knew Robert Roberts, a lovely and inspiring man (RIP) he lived in the tree lined streets of Prestwich greater Manchester after leaving behind the slum thanks to a good education.

Sure, no problem:
In January in New York, activists confronted the IGlobalForum Carbon Trading Summit with a demonstration outside and a disruption of the trade fair. Read more here:
Climate Justice Activists confront Carbon Trade Summit with demonstration, direct action | Climate Justice Action
Carbon trading is criticised for failing to achieve emissions reductions, strangling the development of technology and poor countries, and dispossessing small farmers of their land. Stopping its worldwide implementation is a key priority of all climate justice groups. Friends of the Earth have a thorough report on the practice available here in full or there in summary.
