Energy Poverty

I am interested in the topic of energy poverty because it is becoming an increasingly important issue in our nation. This topic encapsulates the climate crisis and other systemic inequalities that create barriers to the access of energy in developed and undeveloped countries. I would like to specifically add to the article section titled “Climate Change” since I feel it lacks important information regarding the constraints of energy accessibility and its environmental impact. Additionally, the section titled Regional Analysis” lacks information regarding the statistics of energy poverty in Latin America. I plan to add information to this section since an international understanding of energy poverty is necessary to analyze the underlying causes and possible solutions behind this topic. I would like to expand and organize the beginning section (first two paragraphs) of “International Efforts” when combining the section with “Addressing Energy Poverty” since the latter is underdeveloped and more closely related than the former section.
