10:35 pm
remind our audience who you are and what you do. for a month from sedan, i'm the chair, but you want the procedure. all right. why we change and the, as you mentioned, that something to you now of the call when you have people writing, i'd made the normal cop. thank. all right, the normal cult thing, but the normal caught thing with youth activists. adage, what will the impact be of the youth climate action movement on caught $26.00? that is our question. i'm asking that to you right now. if you're on youtube, you can be part of the conversation. you already wang, and you already have very strong opinions. the comments section is here. your opinions are very welcome. i want to start in 1992. this is 7 suzuki at the rio, the very 1st a cop in rio. have a look. have a listen. i am fighting for my future. losing my future is not like losing an election or a few points on the stock market. do not forget why you are attending these
10:36 pm
conferences. you are deciding what kind of world we are growing up in. please make your actions reflect your words. thank you. the real earth summit was the 1st time in history that world leaders government to discuss climate change and to try to put forward a plan for sustainable development. thank you for reminding us that we are responsible for the world and then for the future generation 7 demanded an answer to the question, what about the rights of you? what about the generation that will have to pick up the pieces? i guess i'm going to ask all of you about 7 suzuki and where she fits. he and i feel like that mean, this is where it started. this is how it's going. so this is how it started psyched a. you put that clip in to your film, why? i feel like every climate activist at one point or another has had
10:37 pm
a friend or someone send them that clips thinking that it is current and happening . today's thing if you've seen this girl, this is amazing or young people really doing this. and then it's always interesting because it's no it's, it's not from now. it's from 1990 to 3 days before i was born. and i think it's a really important clip because it shows where we've come from. it shows that all along the way young people have been injecting a enthusiasm and passion and drive into this conversation that so desperately as needed on youtube already we've got a really active audience today, sasha, for font i said, well, they felt you little girl, misery. what do you say? i just wonder, where is she right now because i would really looking forward to the person she became and unfortunately i used my li just mentioned be are still in 1992.
10:38 pm
we hear the same thing. thank her mind about the future. thank you for about was responsible it. that's right extra. and i wasn't born in 1992 yet but it is. it's laughing now, but i'm crying actually frightening side because to see that there are still there die here and it's not actually so many things. there are still the same target. go ahead. i thought it was really interesting when i watched latest film that opened with that show of 7 suzuki. i also teach masters students at the university of late the about the climate negotiation, st. and sustainable development negotiations and m and i, he show them that clip and have this conversation because a lot of people think that the recent youth climate movement engrafted, sumburgh is the 1st time we seen this kind of thing. i say no of this been young people doing this for years and i was at the rio plus 20 negotiations in brazil. so
10:39 pm
20 is on from this clip. and 7 says iq. he was there. and, and she basically said she'd been invited back year after year to the un that saying the same stuff and never know it's says a so pleased to see her and to listen to what she has to say. but she feels like the message that it's always the same and it's not really moving forwards. i'm and she actually said she thinks that rather than relying on world leaders, it's more important to look for the changes in our local communities, which i felt like was a theme that that came out of slight us film as well. so be interesting to hear what slater in israel think about that. i both nodding a misery, articulate not 1st and then slater. you go 2nd. yeah, i mean her it's, it's very hard because at this point we really don't have any other options. we,
10:40 pm
we do activist or ad book, the different sorts with the local community is with the farmers with the yacht, people raising that one is a public doing the negotiations. i'm like, i'm a part to negotiation you with my country. we are doing everything possible in our how to actually make this work. unfortunately, we feel sometimes that whatever we do, we are just pushing a big wall that does it. and some people call this climate inside, which is not in the climate reality. the baby in the future of the whole world is in the hands of less than 201st and it does that $200.00 person how to make the right otherwise. oh yeah yeah. it's interesting, i'm having these conversations in these interviews and even now it still feels like
10:41 pm
it's a little bit of ground hog day that we're i'm, i can't believe that we're still having these conversations. i can't believe that we're still having conversations about why we're still having this conversation. i think, i think a lot of it comes from the fact that it, through the years that i've been filming this and speaking to young people and indigenous communities and communities on the front lines. the thing that comes up again and again is the sense that how were we going to fix a problem within the society that created it? and i feel like a lot of that is not necessarily being talked about. it feels like client, the climate crisis is an existential crisis of who we are as people and how we're going to move forward. like what kind of world do we want to live then? who are we going to be? what is our relationship to each other in the planet? and i feel like that part of the conversation is not necessarily something that you see at the you and climate talks at cops. the sense of what,
10:42 pm
how are we human within the climate crisis? see, i have a silly harriet and this is something that you've been studying for a long time. the, the, the impact of the climate action youth movement. and i have a theory that people see young people and they think they don't know what they're talking about. okay. and then in the film youth unstoppable directed by slater. there's a moment where she's like, is it okay if i call you a kid, she's a kid who got an interview, not now, but back then how old were you? slater? i was 12 or she's a 12 year old. the only interview this canadian politician gave was to 12 year old slater. have a look. and then harriet respond of the back of this clip. canada was one of the countries that had signed the kyoto protocol. committing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. but at the same time,
10:43 pm
the government was aggressively supporting alberto oil sands, the largest industrial project on earth. what would you think of putting together something where the youth and the adults are involved? something like a youth council to help shape canadian environmental policy. well, we're regularly from all kinds of committees, your middle of business and environmental average move. there's not a national consensus to be at all previous from across. can we get together? they can't agree on what to do for political parties. home for government opposition can't agree what to do. there's also another $150.00 countries. we need to get them involved to mr. thank you, mr. baron. very much. i thought slightly responded to that very politely. i wonder if she would respond the same today. it felt the little bit to me like and he, he took that, that one interview because he thought, oh,
10:44 pm
it'll be nice, ill look good to meet with the young person and then she has some quite tough questions about that. so freely just can you listen to young people and have kind of responded with as we listen to lots of people like businesses and big environmental organizations. and it's, i, let's not really the same thing though, that they are already pulling a lot of the strings in our society. and, and i thought slightly did a very good job there of just politely shaking his hand. i wonder if, if her and if miss rain, have you been responding to people at that today or you been saying, no, i won't shake your hand till you give me a proper answer. yeah, well it, yes and no. i had a speech day with them more than 35 word eaters, inside of the room with me. and they did each. and i think that they didn't like it . i can, i can i show a little bit of your speech and then you can tell us why you suspect that the of
10:45 pm
politicians in the room didn't like it. so this is ms. rain addressing caught $26.00 a few hours ago. my name is 47 percent of the ward population. so any time you meet me don't say listening. just say for to 70 percent and i will understand this. 4 to 7 percent is only the people who are aged between $15.29. we are not yet talking about the people 30 to 35. we are not also talking about children, which is by far more than this number. so we are basically represent more than the halls of the population of the planet. so it's not a gift, or it's not a privilege to listen to us or treats an obligation because we represent most of the population of the world. and just just across the way it is want to set the scene was prime minister boys johnson. he mentioned you as he was addressing cop, you are surrounded by the great and the good news ring. how did your message go
10:46 pm
down? yeah, so i also spoke about the cool that's happening is done right now. and i tried to connect climate governor with existence and institute. and you know, we're leaders of it's spectacle when it comes to talk about politics that are really countries for them until now. for them language changes a soft landing issue where they can listening to young people accept anything. i mean, i'm young between climate change, but you cannot talk about other things. and i will just be a hypocrite to talk about climate change and uncle 26. and i feel isolated from my home and not talk about the issues that we are facing. how the hell are we going to have one with action in our countries where we don't have government the 1st place we, we don't have any assistance with this when we don't have a structure that help us to actually tackle climate change in the 1st place though, nothing, nothing is disconnected, everything is very much connected to each other. and if we just write it, would it partials and partitions between topics,
10:47 pm
then we are just lying dollar selves and we have to accept that. do they have to accept that to say to i'm just wondering is it yet? so i was wondering if watching is ring at cop 26 at the table. what is that like? it's incredibly inspiring. i mean on. c the one hand, i feel like you, you are the most you are the person within that room who we should all be listening to not only just from the 47 percent, but because you actually are sharing the energy and the it's, it's hard to say it will say what it is, its passion, its fear, but it's also a conviction that we do know what we're talking about. we are not only inheriting in the future where we're living within the present that is currently spiraling out of control, whether it's fires or droughts or flooding. i mean it's happening now. it's, it's,
10:48 pm
it's here and we have been sounding a alarm for so many years. and thank you. yeah, i wanted to say, well, 2 things. one, misery. can you get me in there with you tomorrow because i'm in glasgow, but i feel like i'm a completely different conference to you because i don't have a government badge though. we've been stuck outside all day. i may as well have been sitting in my room watching on tv because we couldn't get anything and we had to pay 6 pounds for a plane to sandwich. and the other thing is, when you're at presenting such a massive and diverse group of people, how do you get that message across and do you find it? and do you find it difficult? i've noticed in my research that they international level young people kind of result to this message that, that does come across that whole group of way that kind of that moral power of it is going to affect our futures and that symbolic power of representing such
10:49 pm
a large amount of the, of the global population. but by being they sort of model global citizen and not always being able to connect back to your own experiences. that it can be a little bit easier to dismiss young people as not having that so of real life experience and that, and vulnerability to climate impacts that some of the civil society groups bringing in the negotiations that really capture people's attention with the personal stories. yeah, you are, you are absolutely right. it's a very, it's a very problematic for me. every time i have to deliver a speech, i always try to consider all of them. don't want them the world, all of the different inequality. because i was speaking to one of your
10:50 pm
call and she comes from the area and when she was planning, how artic looks like, i felt like she's exactly describing to that, but it's so cold there. and so my country, so even within the developed countries, unfortunately some areas are deliberately under the call up and the way all of that and the resources of the poor areas to capital like, for example, or other, other cities than a big, big city. so trying to address all of this equality trying to actually talk to every audience with their problem that they're facing because it's very important to touch everyone's heart. it's a very challenges and i've been, i cannot get it that's completely on my car. moving in and as you mentioned, this is my human experience. and this is how i go up and camp the person i up ladies, if i may, we have so many comments and questions for you on youtube. i'm going to make this a speed round react, and then we're going to move on as we're doing now one,
10:51 pm
see how many of the big questions we can get to slater. all right, volleyball joe. this movement in air quotes. ok, is an adventure january. nothing else. slater. go ahead. that's completely absurd and ridiculous. it's not an adventure. january. i don't think anyone who is part of this movement. wants there to be climate change so that we could be going on an adventure and like connecting with people around the world. what we want is a fair, ambitious, and legally binding deal that actually ensures our survival as a species and allows us to adapt and to not be losing, not only the natural world, but the people that we love. this is a life or death situation. harriet, i'm going to give this one to you. this is from amman, a company watching us on youtube. what can you say to someone who doesn't know and doesn't care about climate change?
10:52 pm
i think the best way to get somebody to, to care about climate change is to relate it to something personal. so i live in the north of england and the, the way that i have done that when i've worked with school kids before is linking it to flooding, which is the climate impacts that we experienced the most where we live. and so i think going in with things that people care about and people that they know and communities that they feel parts of places that they call home and they want to protect is a good in road and then going from there to all of the other communities and people and places around the world that are impacted and broadening their awareness from that is, is a good way to do it. i have one finish reading. this is rashid or sheet says how do you see the impact of 26 on our future?
10:53 pm
well, it's too early to judge to area to say the impact of 26 is. why is that what i know that the impact on my bones. i'm not very well when he was super cold, yet it's, it's a challenge that are ready to actually overcome where they have yes. goals in the world just to make this done because it's only a lot of church. so i, if you ask me this question again on the 12th or the 11th i might have on here, and we are still crossing fingers and hoping that until the last moment of the call, thanks goes well. so i can not judge from now. it would be unfair to, to start judging things that start yet guess i'm just looking at this. this is the driving ambition youth. the climate manifesto it was put together last month. it's being presented this month to the people who, who make the decisions later when you see this and the way that you have follow the
10:54 pm
evolution of the youth movement. what does this say to you? this manifesto that has been given to politicians in power. i hope they actually read it. so it, it feels eerily like i i remember being 15 years old and being part of a manifesto given to environmental ministers from around the world. and it ended up becoming a photo op. i don't like to think that i'm bitter, but there is a part of me i want leaders to read this manifesto. i want them to take this and to, to actually see where young people are coming from and to, to move forward with those goals. but i am worried that it will just be more of the same because there isn't the sense of urgency. there isn't the same drive. we have countries that are representing their national interests and that doesn't necessarily benefit the future of the planet. those ringo. head. yeah,
10:55 pm
well i was making i was the co chair of one of the areas which is use the private ambition and in the area it was international multilateral, sorry, most lots nation and local. and we were talking about how young people can drive ambition on the vote. and we had great key we outcomes, which is meaningful. you think gauge meant and why we said meaningful. because a lot of people feel that they are just a decoration in many events, and this is something you don't want to because people have professional impacts and have ideas on a basis as they can actually solve the problem. people are really different up reported. the 2nd thing was to finance the finance is a huge issue or everyone, even countries for young with the 50 because the, the and we cannot say or whatever we have, you actually have our lives and,
10:56 pm
and we're from the and also at some point to get up and grow bigger or work. and the 3rd one was yeah, capacity building, we're going to, we're going to end it there because i have to show our didn't a few things on my laptop use, unstoppable. this is the web page for it. you can watch it for free online at water back. you can follow slater on twitter, delta harriet, few on twitter, and also misread lcm on twitter as well. thank you for your comments and your questions. i really appreciate them. thank you to nice rain, dr. harriet and also slater, as well for bringing their perspective of where the youth climate action movement is. today, i'm going to wrap up with thoughts from time activists are in glasgow in the room, hopefully at the table, making a difference. thanks for watching everybody. the next time we have in the event is ideas on how these kinds of crises can be solved. what is monta underscore
10:57 pm
26? i want to see our, you know, 2nd eyes if want to be shut off young people and engaged them in decision making, programming, and implementation. i think we need to shift away from this us versus them mentality. when it comes to discussing climate change and placing the blame on adults generation, i think it's more productive solutions oriented conversations focused on how would you forward and build back better the actions that i was to point out from my perspective that young earlier is policy based on climate action and being engaged in planning and climate conversation or not, not as well. and it's not what i want to do is to find a way for the science and be serious about they're not as you are sure.
