12:35 pm
it the saw that the we have no cross that threshold into human into slammed change. we knew this for a very long time. so i told us what was happening, but not all humans are deeply in response for people you meet, but the image very, very true. they are not the ones who are causing the problem. the daughter would not go to the the, the
12:36 pm
. ready the really good now i'm trying to save was in many very much as i said feeling is i though i should have monday. is it right? well it's a good to have in the water. i don't my last me
12:37 pm
okay . just in about the right elevation for, for this right out to, to good. yeah, we're regular just bought it as a. yeah. this and i think this is like perfect. the so easy and a is one of the united states is largest greenhouse gas meeting states. the many people here or to climate change. so in addition to being a place that small mobile to climate change, it's also an area that contributes to it. until the 1990s, the united states was responsible for 40 percent of the pollution that was already
12:38 pm
in the atmosphere. and now china has overtaken the united states in total emissions but per capita we, we still are bigger polluters, a lot of water. so look out over here, you're seeing a lot of holes of water. a lot of this was land a 100 years ago. that's a lot of reasons. it's changes to the course of the mississippi river is climate change. an intense storm that, that a road in the area i had looked this can you take of you can see those canals and see those long straight lines. those are canals that were cut in the mars. those are yeah, those are canals that have been cut in the bars for, for oil and gas exploration. the state is lost over nearly 5000 square kilometers worth of land over over the last 100 years. even under the more
12:39 pm
optimistic scenario that will be. well, over a 1000 square kilometers worth of land over the next 50 years. so we're looking at a landscape that is going to remain risking and is going to probably become riskier as a place to live in the me got you to see the cadillac i am from clack and it's parish louisiana. been there all my life?
12:40 pm
it's a beautiful place to live, but it's a community that struggle and hold on to its roots because of sea level rise close by, you know, the climate change and different things. but mostly we're going out to see like to type panic. it's down. we go from you looking at the whole town. i am the town. there's only one person living in it to me like most parents was rich as and they were, they were just state in the parish because on gas look at the consequences. we take a look at our environment. it's a battle because you constantly fighting the stalled search from hurricane and it wouldn't be for that. i think everything would be good. i've been fighting
12:41 pm
hurricanes since. so hurricane betsy. that was in 65. i was then i had hurricane camille and 1969. her came on and 85. then i lost everything. 11 story, the just amazing power street just came up. we came all the way up to the window of the house. we looked like we were sitting in the middle of a river. katrina totally changed. the geographic supply from the spanish for ever as far as people and just every single way of life. the patients from nursing, from hospitals, waiting for plains to take them. well,
12:42 pm
they simply don't know i've never seen anything like this before. it's everyone's doing the best that they can. but thousands are still corrode. here at the cities sports arena, the super done, the even countries like the united states with for example, when i read can katrina hit new orleans in the united states some years ago. not a single ritual middle class. the white american lost their lives were dealing with one of the largest relief efforts in our nation's history. and the federal government role play. or 1st priority of course,
12:43 pm
has the same life. more than 1200 for black people living in the 9th ward of new orleans lost their lights in the richest country in the world. when they saw the hurricane coming, they did not receive the poor people. the 6 bodies in a wheel chair, the land on the floor by the way. and then there's this guy right here this year. but with more money always have more options when it comes to to everything. climate really and whether or not you can evacuate is an economic justice issue because you have to put gas in your tank to leave. you have to, you know, get a hotel room somewhere else,
12:44 pm
people with more money or more options to leave. when they give a mandatory evacuation, that's what it is. take what you need. know because nobody wants to come save. you the it was totally devastated by katrina and it was a ground 0 the can look every genette. there's looking for coffins and tubes. i got a brand new able to drive to also do it. and then when he was in a boat, it was still devastation because they had just debris everywhere. tried job and, and that's when you know you a good job. if you can get through that, the
12:45 pm
aster katrina, this cemetery was a man, had tuned all over. he didn't know who says and i work in here for months, trying to put people back in to see me at the store. when they come in they talk no mercy, i'm not even a cemetery the the devastation that that parish stuff. it's the katrina was monumental to its people and communities as far as just wiping out everything just picked you to very quiet. no electricity, nothing. just total silence. the
12:46 pm
we don't have community anymore, discharge has to be packed, a good alternative about that's all caused from the environmental changes that have occurred. it caused people to move and didn't want to come back and do to go to church and you know, i'm the only white woman in a church. that's crazy. even if you look at the rich countries which are now being impact about climate change, almost invariably the most vulnerable of people who are suffering now are poor people. in the us, for example, this one is which is the, comes in the world. and yeah, it's 25 percent of the population who live in substandard housing, but it's important to understand that's a, that's climate change. is an issue that a shot through is any policy in multiple respects. and we see it in class terms.
12:47 pm
first and foremost, i guess the most obvious way we know that it's the richest that are overwhelming and responsible for, for accessing missions. and so there is a very big disparity amongst who causes the problem and who suffers the consequences they feel abandon, most of them. it's just not fit the depression sets in. you need help. some people need help. so we really have to have a very good place. the
12:48 pm
you know, wants to stay realized at a cost of land loss, really getting serious. get started, pause when we start rebuilding some of those areas that last late they came up with a master plan. one of the projects in the master plan is to rebuild the coast by partially diverting the flow of the mississippi river. that brings a lot of settlement engine landscape and it would bring a lot of fresh water into the landscape. settlement is how you build land and fresh water carries nutrients. it can push salt water out to see if the plan is fully implemented. you're looking at several 100 square miles worth of land that that would have otherwise been this. and it will reduce fund risk over the life of the project. but every year, by several $1000000000.00, the we don't have
12:49 pm
a say. so in the states master. but it's affecting the people of clackamas parish, and some of them don't like. a settlement is also can clogged up the gills of oysters and settlement can bury and wasteful. the grandfather arrived here in 19 o. you heard about the hardworking oysters life in clackamas parish, louisiana. they came from a very poor country, didn't have much money. in around 1920, he built him with champ where he got his 1st voice. 2 weeks back at the time was just a wild wilderness basically no levies to protect your homes from the river and stuff . but you didn't really need it back then because the land was low higher.
12:50 pm
the, this diversion is, is a bad deal. the they're going to basically open the river 25 miles north of here. and just let the water uncontrollably flood into a crime for steam as to where it is bouncing. c, food royce, to strive, crafts, fish, we knew back in and we know it even more now. the devastating effect this is going to life just can't a so healthy living, oyster res creates a healthy living comes utility always does it kill off the coast? we all the canary in the mine,
12:51 pm
this one mass to mass and beast is going to flow tremendous amounts of water. and it's going to take millions of gallons of water to me. the house is a settlement, and it's not going to work. and the process is going to chill off all of us. that's a good sign. great. so that's what we're looking for. future idea. you know, we gotta keep the water, right. everything's gotta stay right for that to thrive. but i'm gonna have to try one of these website people who needs to be the plus sign is a for generation always the former. they don't have a future here. this thing becomes, comes to like the families in this business for a 120 years. approximately it's,
12:52 pm
it's all we've ever done and solid are on the do plan on doing this for the rest of my life. and now i don't know this easy to say to all, just gotta do something else, but there's not a lot of other opportunity here. the you realize how many people are employed outside the coast throughout the country on some of the sea food that we produce here. in the barracks area base, that's going to be totally in isolated. we beg, please, let's come up with an ultimate plan because this is going to destroy not only our livelihoods, but our way of life on culture. mother nature always wins. so we always are at her mercy and we just have to sit back, let us have them try. yeah, the,
12:53 pm
there's no necessary contradiction between social object as i like the logical objectives they can and must be accomplished. at the same time, we have more than enough energy and resources to ensure good, less for all several times over the i think the global system is broke and therefore a broken system does not solve itself. we're going to have to find new ways we do not need fossil fuels anymore. it's people knowing what to do, behaving consciously do the right things that will help us solve this problem, not by ignoring everybody else and looking after one. so there's a false expectation, particularly among rich people,
12:54 pm
that they can survive everything, even rich people are going to be affected by the impacts of climate change and they're going to have to deal with it. so fish behaviors, what got us into this problem? and surface behavior will not get us out of this problem the, which hard because as a scientist died, studies sea level rise. and i work at a place that's vulnerable to sea level rise. and it's, it's hard for percentage to a doesn't sell, believes in a parishes lost to 4 percent of the population over the last 2 years. that means one in 25 people in several south louisiana parish has moved out
12:55 pm
of the account. the schools are closing and if you lose the, the student age population, you're losing the next generation. people that are being born today are going to spend most, if not all of their lines in a world that is warmer than the one that their grand parents grew up in. the question that facing us is not. yes, that will happen. but how many people will be impacted, and how many people will suffer? the
12:56 pm
lot of people from new orleans and i used to have so many friends. i had so much fun cooking dinners, having people over going duck on. i had plenty ducks, you know, but through the years all that sort of general in a way as we lost environment from storms, we don't have a place to gather anymore. the whole environment's totally different. 2 2 2 2 2 the, you know, i consider myself, well, i do. everybody thinks i'm rich, but i'm not the, that's the environment is, is it to do everybody's life? it's not just my life. it's everybody's like around the world, the environment changes your life changes. that's a true fact around the world,
12:57 pm
it seems natural disasters and become a frequent part of life from flux to trouts and fires. it's not like comedy here about extreme weather or destroying infrastructure and most importantly people's lives. the united nation says more natural disasters are coming due to climate change. so is there a need to establish an international agency that specifically deals with such events? and would that help to level the playing field with disasters? can we get out of the site to a certain nurse man's the worst enemy? i'll say they go really the same, the on line. you know, to the end, i'm going to be very due to the
12:58 pm
devastation bundle dishes, usually in the top 5 countries as the most valuable country in the world displacement. if you look at tucker city, it's unbelievable desperation. then living on a fringe of life and did the stock reality of climate change in a rapidly sinking country. you have the problem to day, the rest of the work and have it tomorrow. and they will have to learn from us, which is here is new series dying of life before land resulting from the options you have, you have a great winning hearing this thoughts, palestinian or airbag content has been removed or restricted understanding the reality for these demonstrators. if president marquee saw reckoning the stability
12:59 pm
of the country, i'll just say it was teens across the world. when you click sensitive a part of the story. this business update this voltage by the city bank growth partner of on the dash before he is the
