Maybe I am too thick but I see nothing wrong in what Al Gore said there. Educate women, give them a choice on how many children to have, etc. I imagine that is what a modern, intelligent society would do.
I make no assumptions, but "you have to educate girls and empower women" sounds to me like a reasonable suggestion.
I suppose we could educate women to have as many kids as the Bible says, then when those kids are hungry and poor we can have churches sell their land, building and assets to feed the poor.
