3:12 pm
it gets worse and worse. every year, hundreds of people died because of the sim fledglings to many families, lost their homes. and mine is one of them. i remember him when i had to miss me. my school because my parents were out of money and i had to see tom lake for 4 months. it was really very bread. and from then i thought i could do something to change this whole situation. by that time i didn't know that it the effects we were facing. glad because of climate change. ah ah,

3:14 pm
i chose climate because it is something that affects each and every one of us. when you look at our may be goal tail under violation, it looks at only one gender. and even though old we have to genders. so climate change affix each and every one of us no matter the age, no matter the size, the matter, the gender, no matter the status. so it is something that is connected to us. ah, the only am all all day on the following. oh,
3:15 pm
well known die all day but i'm born and raised in hong kong and i grew up in the collins i. i will say that my home town. it's like, it's really home me. i always feel connected to hong kong because i've been here for like my whole life. i have all my friends around me and my parents are or in hong kong. so i don't really have some other places that i could call home and i don't see, don't know. you volume thing. it was on a boy. on is only thing. uphold dawson, the young lady lives only gone down to the home as long as i don't bother with only will do mom who was on cobra.
3:16 pm
i seen the active us around me make me realize that there still hope in this city because the major thing of a city is the space and people without this 2 elements, you can have a city and people are really united to now 3 months later it kills my fought on thinking about moving out from hong kong on like going somewhere else because i can see the langauge between me and hong kong right now or by think the love and care you have to was your hometown is way more important than the sense mm
3:17 pm
a long time ago. my home town, hong kong was handed back by the british to china in 1997 under the premise of one country to systems we all were raised with democratic values with freedom of speech we freedom of press. but in the recent years, china is trying everything to make hong kong just like another chinese city. they may, that we belong to, dan, that they possess us. but i'm not from china.
3:18 pm
i'm from hong kong. oh, i so sanity food stamps on the 9th of june because on the 12th of june was supposed to be the day the, our chief executive carry land going to push to extradition or to china, which actually minimize our independence, ian hong kong. i thousands of people have just wrapped up wrapping from home for the fight against the controversial extradition bill. those amendments could've allowed beijing, the spirit, hong kong to mainland china for any accused crimes. even those that might be made up. critics worried that the bill would make it easier for beijing to exert control over the region. the situation we know turned violent as off to noon as a question as erupt in between police testers.
3:19 pm
but for me, i do worried about being arrested, but not in a sense i'll say ally has to be in jail for like how many, how many years and i lost my freedom. it's not about let me now it's about how the police would you up in that 48 hours that they are legally to detain you. that's actually the part that scares me a lot. ah. i
3:20 pm
think you can simply ignore the junk people and the working class that will buck fire. at some point you ignored the working class. you will have a whole cd on the streets. on october 25 of 2019. there was a huge protest in santiago with 1200000 people. we pushed for social reforms and more equal society. we thought our voices will be heard
3:21 pm
instead of doing anything that could help improve the situation of the working class or 1000000000. our president announced that sheila is at war essentially against its own citizens. they've a lot of plastic and poorly been and dyed it. it's just like a floating revolve left thinking it had so much to see that what we call beauty or nature is tending god to be something. it was something that is going to kill us soon. but some people do not really care. we come out as
3:22 pm
people to clean it until some people will still throw plastic even when you're cleaning it. one takes up, most of my time in this movement is creating massive climate awareness liquids. climate change is not taught in schools, so people don't get it when we 1st talked to them about climate change. so we need rounds and runs of discussions about it for them to get to you, especially the old as feel that they have left their life. and the rest is for us that come in gender is shown to do. i also moved to my class where i study from and i had that conversation with my professor and when i talked about climate change, he really give me
3:23 pm
a negative attitude and told me climate change does not exist. and he told me climate change in god's plan and there's nothing i can do about it. i up and down on the when i moved my my bill to neg dot net. yeah. okay, great debbie on what i may have your quote, laura holloway, my goodness, one, the one that goes over ha, work now going thought or with now goes on advantage during present kind of, i've been ways it up record he may get on with his are park i just 11, warden, not too much a change all of our core possible out 3 i turned to that to him. by then, by saba, go it to read out who no code to put it into an after you put up onto the door and
3:24 pm
you will no longer i'm a local move on to never, not now by not i'm way now. bye. now, bye. now, bye bye. now i'm way my job was on go might be just piano are if government incorporate organizations, an individual student act towards creating solutions to this climate crisis. a fear that the future i am working for right now will not be fair because of inaction. i positively speaking, i will say that every time even we're like week and then we're on the losing side, but is always a chance for us to improve the next time is always a chance was to learn. why should we do better or like what we could have used
3:25 pm
better next time? what have equipment we could have i would say the worst thing to be on the losing side is that every time you being on the front line, you seeing people getting arrested and then going home that night you too late. why is not me when they are actually really close to you? you threw scared. by the same time you have to make the decision like, oh, i could have a chance to save that person. so this never right or wrong. because it's a human instinct that you protect yourself. but you also see really cute. see if you know that you may have like a one percent chance to save that person even you don't know that person. but what i like about hong kong and the protest here east that many young people,
3:26 pm
they are so innovative and they use their skews to serve the protests and improve the situation for the people here during the entire protest. everyone keeps saying be walked her and as a map her, i caught direct people and tell, don't go here, go there, but i can tell them where it's safe to go. and i think that's the most important for everyone right now, especially as civilians may very easily be caught up in conflict areas because you never know where it's going to be. so we hope that the map can provide information for people who wish to stay safe. there was one day when all the protesters were rounded up in newtown plaza and chattin. so they were directed into the m t. r station into the, into the mall by the police. or basically they had told all the protesters in the shot and, and then they just started rounding them up and beating them up. we were just
3:27 pm
wondering like, how could this have happened? why is there no where to go even, even for people who wants to escape, who wanted to avoid conflict? so then we decided to draw map. so we could see where the police are, where protesters are to make sure that people at least have an escape route. so yeah. so people will know where the police are station on where there are a lot of protesters where there are road blocks even how the transport situation is like. so this is information that would be useful for the general public, but would also be useful for people on the front lines. if they want to know escape routes. if they want to know, basically where it put police are, where is not safe, where they should not go apart from that, we've also got some feedback from the 1st a teams. so they're really grateful that we write down where protesters are, especially we also indicate the density of protesters in different areas so that they know where they should set up their 1st aid stations,
