The Dhaka Times Desk The deadly corona virus has created a terrible crisis all over the world. In such a situation, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates said that a bigger crisis than Corona may be coming.
According to Bill Gates, the governments of different countries around the world are giving considerable importance to the Corona virus. But they should give equal importance to climate change as to Corona.
He warned countries that if proper action is not taken now, the impact will be far more devastating. Bill Gates highlighted the urgent issues related to climate change in a recent blog post.
In that blog post, Bill Gates also said that the death rate of Corona virus is 14 per lakh. But by the end of this century, if current carbon emissions continue at the same rate, an additional 73 deaths per million could be caused by global warming.
He also said that the corona epidemic is terrible but climate change can take an even more terrible form. Bill Gates also pointed out that to understand the damage to be faced due to climate change, the outbreak of Covid-19 and the long-term human suffering can be looked at.
Not only human lives are being lost in this epidemic, but also financial distress has been observed in various countries. Bill Gates said, if we do not reduce the level of carbon emissions now, this misery will become our daily companion.
He warned that in the next two decades, the economic damage caused by climate change could become so bad that it would become a once-a-decade Covid-19 pandemic.
