11:36 am
and welcome back to the story. was lovely to have you, please remind our audience who you are and what you do for a month from sedan. i'm the chair, but you went the procedure. all right. why we change and the, as you mentioned, that you now called people, randi, i'd meet the normal cop. thank all right, the normal cult thing with a normal caught thing with youth activists. adage, what will the impact be of youth climate action movement on caught $26.00, that is our question. i'm asking that to you right now. if you 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 a 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 election or a few points on the stock market. do not forget why you are attending these
11:37 am
conferences. you are deciding what kind of world we are growing up in. please make your actions reflect your words. thank you. mm hm. 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 never 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 fully that mean this is where it starts age. this is how it's going. so this is how it started. sikes, a you put that clip in to your film. why i,
11:38 am
i feel like every climate activist at one point or another has had a friend or someone send them back clip thinking that it is current and happening today saying, have you seen this girl? this is amazing or young people really doing this and then it's always interesting because it, it, no it's, it's not from now. it's from 1992, 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 enthusiast and passion and drive into this conversation that so desperately as needed on youtube already we've got a really active audience today. sasha fauna says, well, they found you little girl misery. what do you say? oh, i just wonder where she right now because i will read in looking forward to the person she became. and unfortunately i mike lee just mentioned be, are still in 19 by way here at the same thing. thank you for reminding me about the
11:39 am
future. thank you for is about was responsible. that's right, cetera. and i wasn't born in 1992 yet. but it, it, it laughing now, but i'm crying actually frightening side because it's so sad to see that there's still their time here and it's not actually so many think there are still the same target. go ahead. i thought it was really interesting when i watched slater's film that opened with that show of 7 suzuki. i also teach master students at the university of late there about the climate negotiation, st and sustainable development negotiations and m, and i each show them that clip and have this conversation because a lot of people think that the recent youth climate movement grafted sumburgh is the 1st time we seen this kind of thing. i say no of this been young people doing
11:40 am
this for years. and i was at the rio plus 20 negotiations in brazil. so 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 ists says i so pleased to see her and to listen to what she has to say. but she feels like the message, but it's always the same and it's not really moving forwards. i am and she actually said she thinks that rather than relying on worldly does, it's more important to look for the changes in our own 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 and not 1st and then slater. you go 2nd. yeah, i mean i it, it's very hard because at this point we really don't have any other options. we,
11:41 am
we do activist or ad book of the different sorts with the local community is with the farmers would be up people raising that. we're just the public doing the negotiations. i'm. i'm like, i'm a part to delegate. i'm negotiation you with my country. we are doing everything possible in our heart to actually make this work. unfortunately, we feel sometimes that whatever we do, we are just washing a big wall that does it. and some people call this climate anxiety which is not in the climate reality. the bait in the future of the whole world is in the hands of less than 201st and it says that $200.00 britain how to make the right. because otherwise oh, under the drought yeah. i it's interesting, i'm having these conversations in these interviews. it even now it still feels like
11:42 am
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, 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 i'm 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
11:43 am
see at the you and climate talks at cops. the sense of what, how are we human within the climate crisis? say 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 into 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,
11:44 am
the government was aggressively supporting alberto oil sands, the largest industrial project on earth. what would you think of? i'm putting together something where the youth and the adults involved. something like a youth council to help shape canadian environmental policy. well, we hear regularly from all kinds of canadian young and old business and environmental average native, there's not a national consensus to be had all the primers from across can get together. and they can't agree on what to do. the for political parties in the house of commons, the government opposition can't agree what to do. there's also another $150.00 countries. we need to get them involved to the state. okay, thank you mr. bad, very much. i thought slater responded to that very politely. i wonder if she would respond the same to day. it felt a little bit to me like and he, he took that,
11:45 am
that one interview because he thought, oh, it'll be nice, ill look good to meet with the young person and then she has some quite tough questions. well, not that tough. rarely just can you listen to young people and have kind of responded with a 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, if miss rain, have you been responding to people at that today? if 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 to day where they're more than 35 work eaters fido with me. and i did each, i suspect that they didn't like it. i can, i can i show a little bit of your speech and then you can tell us what you suspect that the of
11:46 am
politicians in the room didn't like it. so this is ms. rain addressing caught $26.00 a few hours ago. i name is 47 percent of the word population. so any time you meet me don't say listening. just say 4 to 7 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 isn't 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
11:47 am
down? yeah, so i also spoke about the coup that's happening is done right now. and i tried it to connect climate governance with existence, all institutes. and you know, we're leaders are of, it's mexico when it comes to talk about politics that are really countries for them until now for them. let me change is a soft landing issue where they can listening to young people accept anything coming from young beginning climate change. but you cannot talk about other things . and i will just be a hypocrite to part, talk about climate change and uncle 26. and i feel isolated from my home and not talk about the ages that we are facing. how the hell are we going to have? well, i'm 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 to what it
11:48 am
partials and partitions between topics, 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? yes, it's exciting. it go ahead. i was wondering if i'm watching the screen at cop 25th at the table. what is that like? it's incredibly inspiring. i mean on the one hand i feel like you, you are at the most. um, if 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 with in the present that is currently spiraling out of control, whether it's fires or droughts or flooding it mean it's happening now. it's, it's,
11:49 am
it's here and we have been sounding the alarm from so many years and thank you. yeah, i wanted to say and, well, 2 things. one is rain. can you get me in there with you tomorrow? cuz i'm in glasgow. i feel like i'm at a completely different conference the because i don't have a government botch though. we've been stuck outside all day. i am as well as been sitting in my room watching on tv because we couldn't get near anything and we'd have to pay 6 pounds for a plane cheese sandwich. and, 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 d, find it, and g, find it difficult. i've noticed in my research that at the international level, young people kind of result to this message that, that does come across that whole grape of an way, ah, that kind of that rock moral power of is and is gonna affect our futures and that,
11:50 am
and symbolic power of representing such 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 it 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 other a civil society groups bringing in the negotiations that really capture people's attention with the personal stories. yeah. you are, you are absolutely right. yeah, it's, 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 the world, all of the different inequality. because i was speaking to one of the swedish
11:51 am
delegation in cock. 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 all the, my country, so even within the developed countries, unfortunately some areas are in the, under the color and the way all of that and the resources of the poor areas to capital like, for example, or other, other city than a big, big city. so trying to address all of these 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 of course, as a human being, 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 did call up and became the person i state native. if i may, we have so many comments and questions for you on youtube. i'm going to make this
11:52 am
a speed round react, and then we're going to move on as we do enough one. how many of the few 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 any one who is part of this movement. wants there to be a 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 t, 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?
11:53 am
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 impact 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 and awareness from that is, is a good way to do it. i have one for eunice re, this is from rashid, where she says, how do you see the impact of cock 26 on our future?
11:54 am
well, it's too early to judge to area to say the impact of 26 is x, y, z at what i know that the impact on my bones i'm already well the venue is super cold, yet it's, it's a challenge that you are ready to actually overcome where they have yes, goals in the world just to make this dont 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 your own socks and we are still crossing fingers and hoping that until the last moment of the call, thanks goes well. so i cannot 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 fits being presented this month to the people who, who make the decisions. later when you see this and the way that you have follow
11:55 am
the evolution of the youth movement. what does this say to you? this manifesto that has been given to politicians empower i hope they actually read it. oh it, it feels eerily like i said, 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 up. 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'll 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 rank ahead. yeah, well,
11:56 am
i was part of making the medic brisco. i was the co chair of one of the areas which is a use of driving ambition and you know, once the mar, yeah, it was international, multi lateral story. most lots real national a local and we were talking about how young people got dr. ambition on the 3 levels, and we had great keys. we outcomes, which is a mean you think gauge meant and why we said full because a lot of young people feels that they are just a decoration and many events. and this is something you don't want to because young people have question all impact and have ideas on a beta and they can actually solve the problem if people are really listened or supported. the 2nd thing was accessing to finance because finances a human issue or every one, even countries. but for young people specifically because the and we cannot stay in
11:57 am
volunteers wherever we have to, you actually have our lives and, and we're from me and also at some point be to step up and grow bigger or work. and the 3rd one was 19, is running. yeah, class the building, we're gonna, we're going to end it there because i have to show i would into a few things on my laptop youth, unstoppable. this is the web page for it. you can watch it for free online at water bay. you can fall a slater on twitter, don't to harriet you on twitter, and also miss rein lcm on twitter as well. thank you for your comments and your questions. i really appreciate them. thank you to his reading, don't to harriet and also slater, as well for bringing that perspective of where the youth climate action movement is . today. i'm going to wrap up with thoughts from climb activist. i went in glasgow in the room, hopefully at the table, making a difference. thanks to watching everybody. the next time was in the ready by the
11:58 am
us on how these kind crises can be solved. what is monta? underscore 26. i want to see our, you know, seek, organize. they 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 and 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 the actions that are most important from my perspective that young earlier is policy based on climate action and being a good implant negotiations and chinese conversations with you at the national level as well, and it's not what i want to see from world leaders is to find
11:59 am
a way for the science to be serious about they're not as you are sure. the b 125 degrees. ah. the 1960 s, the decade of change across the middle east and north africa. in the 2nd of a 3 part series al jazeera world explores the explosion of arts and culture. intellectuals were building new dreams and ideas because the revolutions of the 1960 s were not political, but of the mine. from music to t v, the poetry of protest and revolutionary film making the sixty's in the arab world. culture oh, now jazeera. let's get to the bottom line. what does the new forever proxy war mean for america and nato? it's very hard to say we're, the escalation stops. is it a mistake to open up? is that a pandora's box? if you want to be ready for the next pandemic, you figure out this the bottom line,
