Did an engine failure fuel the climate crisis?
Did the failure of a boat engine off the coast of Cuba in 1999 set off a chain of events that led to the current climate change crisis?
When five-year-old Cuban Eli谩n Gonz谩lez arrived in the USA under tragic circumstances in 1999, he found himself at the centre of a political storm over whether he should be returned to his home nation.
The decision over his fate would reverberate at the highest levels of US politics and around the globe for decades to come - with inadvertent consequences shaping how the world reacted to climate change.
