1. 0:00um you seem to imply in your answer to
2. 0:03me that
3. 0:04um
4. 0:06sorry
5. 0:09lie in your
6. 0:12and you're on the population
7. 0:14growth is particularly influenced
8. 0:19um or particularly
9. 0:22um yeah it's particularly influenced by
10. 0:24the speed um
11. 0:25uh in which yeah women pick up and that
12. 0:31women's education influences the speed
13. 0:36in which the contraception is accepted
14. 0:41by a population for instance and
15. 0:45for the CO2 emissions this speed could
16. 0:49already be crucial and could have a
17. 0:51crucial effect in fact also for instance
18. 0:55among poor parts of the North American
19. 0:59population which might also more have
20. 1:04more children for instance than the
21. 1:07wealthier parts
22. 1:10could you please
23. 1:12I I I'm sorry I I there's been a
24. 1:15misunderstanding because I didn't in in
25. 1:16replying to your points about important
26. 1:18points about education I didn't mean to
27. 1:20make any reference to CO2 emissions in
28. 1:24that particular context I was really
29. 1:26making
30. 1:28um two points both of which I think
31. 1:29Michelle also made the first is that
32. 1:33education of all children irrespective
33. 1:35of their of their gender
34. 1:37is something it's terribly terribly
35. 1:39important
36. 1:40and the second point was that
37. 1:43um however it is the case that more
38. 1:46educated women tend to reduce their
39. 1:48fertility somewhat earlier than less
40. 1:50educated women and in that context
41. 1:53education of of girls and women can be
42. 1:56seen as a facilitator if you like a
43. 1:59speeder upper of fertility decline
44. 2:02however the third crucial point which we
45. 2:05both made
46. 2:06me in the context of India Michelle in
47. 2:08the context of I think it was Morocco
48. 2:10but is that uneducated women can reduce
49. 2:13their fertility as well
