Remember, that's from a very, very low base.
But this will just be much, much better world.
And so it's incredibly important to tell her niece and everybody else, this is not the end of the world.
So, again, I don't have the solution, but I think there's two things that are incredibly important.
First, if you go to Africa now, you have this mental image of Africa just being a little bit like you saw on TV back in the 1980s.
It's not.
There's lots of fairly well-off places.
There's lots of places where things actually kind of work.
And it's very clear that Africa has gotten richer.
It's very clear that on some of the very basic parameters, infant mortality and maternal mortality, we've seen a dramatic decline.
We've seen a fourfold reduction in 75% or 80% reduction in infant mortality.
It's still very high, but it's much, much lower.
We've seen kids getting almost all kids now in school.
They're getting better educated, but there's still a long way to go.
And I think part of it is, you know, what happened?
You mentioned when when Europe had the Ukraine war and we suddenly realized, oh, my goodness, we're getting all our gas from Russia.
We tried to switch over.
And one of the things we eventually got from you guys in the US.
But one of the things we also did was we went to Africa.
and asked to buy up all of their gas and quite a bit of their coal, we also at the same time said, but you can't use it.
