5:36 pm
viewers around the world. hello everyone, i'm good at work and i'm a senior research. her climate change group. i've international student one moment in development. get to have you and sharon, welcome to the scene. thank you for bringing your expertise to us. please say hello to our audience around the world. hi everybody. we are, it's child on the world. come on. i'm an enrollment and the climate shifter foyer beefed in bung of it. get to see you. okay, so we have 3 experts. we can tell you about a very unpredictable monsoon season that we're seeing right now. if you would like to talk to them, you have questions, you've got comments, jump on to you tube and that comment section is live. i am just looking patton a. let's start off with some of your reporting. some of the pictures that you sent us on my laptop can you talk us through the pictures just very briefly. let's start with this one where you, you're on the river here on my laptop. there we go. what are we seeing here? before i move on to the next shot. so this is
5:37 pm
a rescue mission that we went on. that's a military boat and the water that you see it looks like a deep river, but it's actually fees that have been submerged. and the water is about 15 feet deep in many areas. i'm not my mac is correct. that's close to 5 meters. if i'm not wrong, extraordinary, he's deep. and that those fields are livelihoods, all thousands of feet. i thought that you were on the boat going down a huge river, so we've got more pictures that there were more so i want you to have keep, keep saying on my laptop here we go. look at this one hand, where are we here? that is a road that run through a community. i look at it in a song and you got that is your water fresh of a water while walking, it was very difficult for me to walk as the current was strong. and you could see everything that you see and grow the water resolve fish. we saw all kinds of
5:38 pm
insects now a snake and the water was in people's homes, again needy. and people were living like back to me that again in a former career, i would tell people full cause the weather. and we always told people never to walk through flop water because it's dangerous. is there an option in the regions that you went to? not at all because you know why rescue mission, but i thought to find a picture that goes well going on. the fact is that this is a rule and a lot of people that are farmers to the very attached to their land and they're not comfortable leaving. so many people to work prefer to do it in flooding water. i mean, i remember a mix right there and they were ok what i mean, i don't want to glorify that, but the fact that they prefer leaving that in those conditions just hoping the water that was received at the a good. okay. with oh,
5:39 pm
we're come back because you're breaking up a little bit, but i, i understand we're, well, you're taking us. and rita, i want to bring you in here because monsoon season, you see a lot of rain. you do see a lot of flooding anyway. but this is unusual because why? okay, so the thing is we are experiencing new form and type of plumbers impacts that we have not seen before. so countries in communities are chasing, increasing frequency and intensity of the same event like flux or drought, a feel of rise that they may experiencing before. and then they were, they were capable of handling them. but right now, what they're facing is unprecedented. they've never faced that before, so i don't give you a few examples like b, i've been on the course today. they are in bungler. they used to receive one type loan in 2 years. now the receive 2 cycles in one year. but me was mentioning that
5:40 pm
atomic survey has one major flood and me and not is another major line. so what happens is that the community is hardly able to recover from one event and they are faced with another event. which means that in the constant process of recovery, you can never think of going back to the same level seem as the case of sea level ice. we often in india, people don't, you know, they don't realize the impact on the pipeline and flux that you can see they found out there lot of flu unsafe event and i'm part of the technical term. but fluency events like sea level rise and it is happening, you know, normal gender, public. the don't understand. i've been to the south kinda florida hardly 2 months back. and that group of 10 villages, which is only be on the water and of the religious party. it was, they used to be in that area to on price kilometers from the see not the last, the other one on price does it from the sea. and in due course they are going to
5:41 pm
want to water similarly invalidation chart. we did a research last year, we saw that every family had undergone displacement at least $311.00 times a family in your pain, in what period of time, no routine, how many times it moves in, in a year, in a scene, in how, how long. so you know, in a, in a period of 5 last 5 to 6 years nestled at least 3. and there was one woman with which really moved me. she had 7 sons, all the 7 sons dead. and you can imagine the scale of impact of having, and i can keep going on, you know, these impacts on not then these events happen. be typically call and of them as climate change, loss and damage and just quickly expand. what lawson damage means loss is something that you lose forever, like cielo right on all those villages that are under water, that last forever than never going to be claimed back. then that damages but just
5:42 pm
still salvageable, but yes, there is a trailer damage. you know, people are suffering losses and then when i say that these loss and damage are not just in the nomic thump, thump, it's not just loss of infrastructure, loss of homes, long crops, livelihood. that non economic losses and damage because their children who are suffering mental prom, i'm anxiety because of these events. they are a woman and children who are forced to live in temporary leap camps and our research toys back showed that. but in, in our sam flooded so there are so many, all that women and children, but targeted by traffic. so, trafficking increase in the aftermath of reach you. i'm just going to put boys on you for a moment because you will to then you're talking about the ripple effects of having to leave your how multiple times because of extreme weather. and then what happens then, but i want to bring in shower band before we get there. if that's okay with you, a shout. roxie co is a climate scientists, and we were looking at the situation with an erotic monsoon and thinking,
5:43 pm
what is going on here? roxy, someday up in a nutshell, and i'd love to build on what he told us earlier. here's walk, say, go move on to player. change in wants and better use that. instead of having the race toward the season, moderately sparrow, georgia season. no, we are having a long drive, intermittent with short space or heavy rainfall causing flips. monsoon and a drought. let me just go via cynita, who's an environmentalist here on my laptop flood at the time of drought. this is the story of climate crisis. why we need to get very serious about managing scarcity and excess water is almost unthinkable even from st. 10 years ago. shabba, please pick up. yeah, i mean, that's a very important issue that the lived up. i just want to mention here like in
5:44 pm
longer bish what's happening me. me is not over muslims. i'm also supposed to start at the middle of june and it goes up to september. but this time we started re our li doing our summer time, and it's not only started already. and we also, since our 1st flood at the end of me and with a very short period of time, the committee to say the 2nd heat of the flood at june. so see what the previous analyst was talking about. the sudden onset disaster, like the disaster that you are not prepared at all, there is no oddity warning, nothing and all of us are then that is also in fear. and your whole life is to be both stating the effected. so to florida in one month and north that is not meeting their fees in $1.00 use at the summer and varies at the very beginning of the phone . it's kind of the boss stating situation for the company. the extra me to call
5:45 pm
another thing, i just want to add here like why these things are we are trying to frame as a frequency and cd because last time, especially in more than eastern far. so india, their software in $956.00 also that they saw 1495 each month after 50 years. also that now they are suffering. it didn't decide in muse after 27 years. see the saw landscaping video and also the liberal walker is getting a higher than the expectation. and for sure, for india unbundled this thought is nothing new. not but the intensification and i mean the frequency that's newer experience with our infrastructure, our community skip ability, nothing is actually aligned with these to deal with these kind of side. that's one
5:46 pm
thing. another is regarding the reference of often damage the see part of lawson damages. that gives a very clear indication. i would like to refer the i think this is 346. and i'm going to slow you down a little bit. hillson damage means that the rich country in the well, the course the climate change have to pay out. it is not a popular idea. was the rich countries in the world. as a lot of pushback about that sharper, would you just briefly make your point? cuz we have audience on youtube who want to talk to you as well. go at. yeah. just to add about the loss and damage. it's clearly like you are no longer in the position of adult vision. you don't have to be adopted. and that means so far more than damage that you are going to say you're going to say in the rest of your life . so that's why we, when we talk about lawson damage with the community, who has no contribution in this problem. but they are suffering the are the things
5:47 pm
i'm most simple and retrieve that they've looked country or the highest in their country who contributed moved and have to take the liability and responsible for ask it is very direct, very candidly. and then have you come in here which countries who are responsible for climate change are actually saying bangladesh and india let help you with how you cope with these extreme flooding? can you name a few countries, siobhan? all from the lawson damage context. it's very unfortunate. no, no, no. all right, company, go ahead. i've got some huge questions for you. go ahead. perfect. go ahead. as i think what we can pay on the course of our reporting is that what's happening is also micro well, for developing countries around the world are, could be facing. it's a tough road between developmental pressure and climate change. which because love
5:48 pm
have the experts did tell us that caused by human intervention that have sort of caused this problem, all of which exacerbated by climate change, which is something that a country like india bundle, they have contributed very little to have. they can, i also have some questions, some youtube, i've got one for poverty and i've got one for you. read to me. audience watching right now to the flood effect, densely populated areas such as backhoe, are just the rule areas of bangladesh and northern india. what, you know, i mean both in fact a lot of areas that get affected worried. i said we're not equipped to be to, to sort of come back or address the problem because they hadn't seen this kind of flooding. so we went to cities the when to turn out that we went off long as but at the end of the day, the fact is that when we spoke to officials, they said that while they have taught them,
5:49 pm
they are doing evacuations and relief distribution. they simply didn't have the nice horses to, to sort of have as many people as, as they want to do. not everybody could make it to release camps and not everybody got more than one square mean a day, despite the government, giving it a lot of relief. rich, let me put you in here. i've got a question for you. this one comes from actually 909. why can't the politicians focus a little more on making life better for people in india, i'm going to add and bangladesh rather than having useless debate that aroused violence. if they use their heads and develop a good drainage system, these things would never happen really to is that possible kind of good drainage system? so extreme monsoons honestly, i just say yes and no to that answer to that question. so firstly, yes, politicians on the policymakers can do far more than they're doing right now. you know, the climate change often damages are,
5:50 pm
couldn't. these events are becoming more and more frequent and intense and all the time. and i've been mentioning that, but what we really need is the scene from tyco and johnson and other sections that occurred in both in india and bangladesh. because there was a very early warning system, a case life received us in case of flooding or doubt. set them, in fact, does not have a warning system. and then explain to us because we do not have already warning system for jo. it is increasing in it's in fact the bucket act so far as and i like silent killer. but having said that one, you need to be more prepared. the policy makers need to how early warning system big from anticipate you may just because clearly the level of time with the facts that are happening, not the contra rented. it's clearly beyond the limits of coping capacities of community. you want you to say, i want you to say that again because when we talk about climate crises,
5:51 pm
the climate emergency, the deadline for pushing back of when it will be too late. i think that climate scientists are being generous because they don't want to sky people into inaction. i want to debilitate the world, but really, where we're talking about india and bangladesh right now, richie, please reinforce what you saying chop and also said it a little bit earlier, but i want to i international audience here loud and clear. go ahead. repeat it, please. you know, what has happened is because there's so much of debate and discussion and on clamored justice about compensation that the lost focus from lawson damage these events already operating on the ground. it's not that it's not because it's for the 1st time that lawson damage was even mentioned in negotiations properly. that was in last year's call, richie, but no on it's paying up that 20. what is it? is it 10 year behind they 50 to members of the go to paris accord the agreement. everybody was like, wow, we saved the well not another but
5:52 pm
a little bit. and all of those promises made empower. i said people were excited. this is for our grandkids. they've held not a single penny and it's i'm and then you see for me the problem is, you know, i'm not even going into the direction of climate compensation and come or just a single unit you yeah. talking about yeah, no, what am purely talking about is communities and countries. right? not right now, i guess, suffering from these impacts. we need practical solutions for them. oh, tactical solutions connecting one. i'm going to bring shabanni name one practical solution retractable solutions could be there could be some areas which are increasingly becoming inhabitable on inhibitor. that's what we all that beginning to see. the more people to safety, thick anticipatory measures move people to safety because in normal they're, they're not going to be habitable anymore. then deal. hm. hello, right. to your, to,
5:53 pm
i wish i was saying move people to safety. so they move out of where they're living right. now forever evacuate because yes, that's the climate migration. all right, okay, i'm not that god. i want to share. i want to share the conversation. richard, you're so much knowledge you're dropping on us right now. i need to share it with shavanne as well. i'm going to go though, via dr. melancholy, because where we are now needs more planning than we're seeing on the ground. this is what she told us earlier, and then shabba, please pick up. what do we do? festival daughter manager. what we need is a, a long dramatic vision plan for the region. and most of the efforts have been detected towards providing immediately for the bigger what we need is some kind of long don't planning so that we are not only that up to bed. but also we are able to predict claims and livelihoods. for instance, are ministries or fir animal husbandry agriculture held. the always need to be
5:54 pm
working together consistently to make sure that there is no outbreak of disease after the floods, the lifestyle can be moved even before the flood strike. so more than immediate relief, we need to now focus on long sharp on please pick up. i just want to add to volunteer. i mean, 1st of all, again the, i think i said before you already said like, you're soon going to reach the 14 and 5 speak to go by the secret. if you're not going to reduce our greenhouse gas engine. the 2nd one days regarding the long term strategy. i just want to ask that question to the audience and also to the families . i've been on the, the issue. i'm a small who are far more and i lost my land and everything. and though i am kind of forced to move to india, so when i'm moving to india, i become an illegal migrant. i'm no longer on the the she, i'm a slimy victim,
5:55 pm
and i'm an illegal migrant. i lost my identity. what solution you are going to give be my local fish and your last and body. i mean there are so many on economic law firm damage and how you're going to address these laws. we've read the long term strategy and all the other force. 7 i can know how these people are watching right now and what can we do? what needs to be done? you articulated so beautifully what the issue is. it's the, the is lack of planning, lack of preparation. and now the weather conditions of o extreme that it's really difficult to cope with those weather conditions, what needs to be done. first of all, we really need to add, chris and ethanol is for loss or damage that is happening at the ground level. and then based on that, we need to come up with a solution that can go with the for municipal need of 4th,
5:56 pm
we can think of our stuff in the infrastructure are better business systems and other facilities. but we need to think about the need of the community, the community who is forced to migrated from one place to another, or maybe from one country to another. but 1st thing we need to keep in mind what is the need because the law, they are suffering that might not be able to be adopted, might not be able to be adjusted. in that case, we talk about the compensation. okay. these are stations richie, just do, excuse me, because job i mentioned the community, you go to the community, what do they need? i am going to end on the community. we thought it was those voices of survivors from bangladesh is recent flawed. i'm going to go back a few days to pass any reporting. and what comes after slot after flood comes disease if you're not ready, his poverty reporting in the field. but he,
5:57 pm
the large bung, she and her daughter had been staying in this relief camp for 4 days. they were forced to flee when water gosh, through a window and flooded their home. she says she got an infection from the dirty water . will it? i say at them and we are facing many difficulties. i have barely slept since we moved to this relief. come on, we are very tense. even others are also losing their sleep. hundreds of thousands of other people have also been displeased by heavy flooding in a psalm state in india. northeast that on district is one of the worst affected. more than 4 and a half 1000 people here are living in relief scamps. heavy rain fall in the hills is bringing more flooding in areas like these flood waters of blocking major roads and preventing trucks or bringing supplies. people here think they're struggling to get food and medicines. have me in the last one minute of i show. so i'm going to ask you to be very brief. how are people doing this is gonna be every day life now
5:58 pm
monsoon season, drought floods, landslides, etc, etc. how are they doing? are they ready for this? no, they're not. what we thought and what, who reported was stories of helplessness or devastation. we spoke to people, you know, i talking to people, you know, women broke down, they didn't know what to do with children and there are no drinking water, no supplied. that is that, but i do want to end on a hopeful note you were talking about preparation and authority, said it that they are tracking and of that is a project that this are pavley into it. but again, i, sharon, thank you for being part of the stream today. we really appreciate it. i will see you next time. take everybody
