a p as thomas political honeymoon was never going to last long. voters won't change and they expect storm is labor party to deliver it, but not the sort of change a cup to winter heating subsidies, but pensioners was one of the government's 1st attempts to plug a hole in the public finances. it doesn't know can be doing nothing for you. just take an empty things away from your your stuff is considered warranties, do actual malware expense and then push it to come out. that's going to have a detrimental effect. some great search for it every day. so, you know, yeah, i'm, i'm with with and kim, i was talking to a lot for, i'll say for the next he is the glue. the message hammered home by labor is that the pot to you, inherited an economy in tatters and fixing it means more pain to come. that's what we've inherited. nope, just an economic black co, a society of black co. and that's why we have to take action. a do things

differently. frankly, things will get worse before they get better. the response has been a plunge and consumer confidence and with it, a shop full install is own popularity. it's going to be a rocky road to help inspire the wider country that they have a plan to get the economy driving to fix public service. to get written back on the world stage is no shortage of challenges. and what they need is a dose of inspiration on top of that, which is the sort of newspaper headline that will really touch stomach. so what ought to be a massive celebration for labor, its 1st annual conference off to the election victory in the summer senior if it goes including the prime minister, revealed to have accepted gifts, including clothing and hospitality. while coughing out budget cut seemed to launch the effect of the pool, it's a bad look for the government that promised to return politics to public service.

the keys, thomas 1st big challenge, came off to 3 children, were killed in southport by a knife wielding attack of wrongly claimed on social media to be a muslim asylum seeker, the prime minister won a claim for his handling of nationwide run it taking the followed. but the rights into reveal the ugly face of a country in crisis tops of which already feel. let joe know how l g 0 livable you're up to date and estimate the buck up. they've got a website out. is there a don't common use continues of to dying that they will so that the as world leaders gather in new york for the un general assembly escalating situation in the middle east? the ongoing conflict and ukraine and climate change will be top of the agenda. can a consensus emerge or will political agendas prevail?

stay to for regular updates on l, just need to hear we are doing a lot on land, disappears the evening, change the city, use home of the underwater on these coastal areas are going to be flooded over the

i've lived here. my life over here is this louisiana. we phase many coastal problems because of the costly a routing lane they're not going to be lane will have levies which are basically land masses that are formed in like a wall to keep high sea levels out. the might of some people still live outside the lock systems. we're starting to leave their land and they've been on for hundreds of use literally as ancient land. whenever land goes, everything goes with it. turn out to the dangers who storms right across the south tornado with human activities limited on 0

global warming as indeed the heat a global binding. as of right the the rate of temperature increase this without precedent, we're facing a future that we don't understand. we can predict fully a lot of places are simply not going to be comfortable to live in all human settlements. after face this problem, they grew up in, in climate, which is going to be much different from the climate. we're going to get the, you can see the intense rain stores. you can see the incredible heat waves where people are dying, large population. so we'll have to move all over the world because of sea level

rise. we're going to see more categories, 4 and 5. hurricane, so maybe even categories we've never experienced before, we're about to get a brand new climate. the climate change means we have to live different now mediately, 10 years ago, 20 years ago for very late getting started, the move somewhere else. and the higher elevation, the

i was working in the early 19 seventy's as an astrophysicist for that it had very little direct connection with what was going on a nurse. and ultimately that's where i wanted to focus. how could the science that i news be applied to solving problems that are really important to humanity as a whole? how warm the plan will get and whether the conditions under which human beings and other species drive will remain close to what they are today? or things just going to spin out of control. ok, so we start with driving forces. those are what are the emissions going to be? and it's not that easy. if you think about it, what are we going to be doing $3050.00, a 100 years from now? that's going to cause human beta missions. how does the political system going to respond? how does the human psyche get a response?

there you get in an area which is really impossible to predict. and the question then becomes, how do you fix up between these events? how do you recover from a hurricane before you have time to really fix it damaged the question i guess we might, as of drew, they'll pick up next time is why do we do nothing? thank you. the louisiana is for the one of them, more climate sensitive places, really on the planet. we are very vulnerable to climate change because this is a low lying area that is in the hands of a lot of hurricane. as the

ocean gets warmer, we are seeing an increase in the intensity for james, 2 of the 3 largest hurricanes to hit louisiana and the recorded histories and have hit this decade in 20202021. the whenever a hurricane comes, it's only got so much time until it comes in during the hurricane. uh, as it was hitting, i was watching people's houses and breaking in half the roofs getting torn off. busy the, the bags fences came down, trees started falling, the house was shaken and then uh, i could look outside my window and uh, watch my neighbors porch for the i

thought i was gonna die with the next day. everything like destroyed we have seen a r v, a flipped over. and after going through a try, see if anybody was inside. it was one of my neighbors. i was old man, he had passed away. we didn't have no cell service. so we just had to wrap up the body and try to keep it as preserved as possible. and so then we could contact authorities and after they could contact the family makes me feel kind of sad. was kind of like last history. the everything was in balance or relatively so until we started burning so much fossil fuels. when you burn spouse or fuels or releases carbon dioxide molecules, which stand out as here for a very long time. and they reflect the outgoing radiation doc down to earth.

there's more energy coming into the plan that is going out of the planet into space . so the plan has no choice, but the more fossil fuels we burn the hot or the planet and look at that say the places that are now side and dry, but you know, wind up being a side or dryer places that now occasionally did heavy rainstorms. most likely to be even heavier, if we don't get ahold of it now, get the problem under control. we'll just have health the and i began my work in the environmental community. and the 1st big issue i took on was air pollution. but while i was investigating it,

i ran across to climate change problem in the literature. and then e p, a report on the environmental impacts of cold. and i was so astonished that we, as human beings would be warming up the planet. and it turned out nobody was working on nobody's trying to make it a publication. the this frame is really use some significance because this was given to me with a nice inscription by senator 10 worth of colorado from july 28th 1988. the purpose of scale was to establish a national energy policy to reduce global warming. this was a leading edge. this bill to begin to address climate change. we asked people what climate change was all about. they wouldn't have

a clue. we're starting from scratch 0. i spent most of my time talking to scientists so that i could understand the problem on the one hand and asked them to come forward to be outspoken. i got a call from someone named grace palmer. it was a well known environmental activist who was looking for uh, maybe companionship on the road to try to solve a very difficult problem. it was very good at working behind the scenes and convincing senators a 2 fold congressional hearings on climate change. so michael became one of the prominent scientists to be outspoken on the issue. there were very few things in life that i ever get frightened about. this was one of how

is it that human beings actually could come eventually to control? we are, as climate is going, the typical scientist was saying, i can just tell you information, but i'm not gonna talk politics or talk about what, what should change. and people like oppenheimer decided to speak out. this is really break the i think if you look at some of my congressional testimony, you'll notice that i got it just about right. i would predict that we would see the effects of climate change relatively near in the future, perhaps in a couple of decades. i was very clear when i spoke to senator, is this going to be big problems unless we start cutting emissions that the

moving the politics of climate change is a huge task because you have an enormous portion of the economy that is dependent on the use. so fossil fuels, so all those interest created a fictional story about the issue in order to diminish any political chance of action they didn't want. 6 the average person to know what the truth wasn't that climate change of the exxon is now and why other than one of the largest oil producing companies in the world. we know that exxon scientists in the 1980s were fully aware of the gravity of the problem. their predictions were

very good, very accurate. it was very well understood that c o 2 had a major role maintaining the atmospheric balance, the temperature renew where the temperature was going to go. was only a question of how fast it was going to get. not if the but the method all out, they knew how it would affect their company if society wanted to do something about this. fossil fuels would have to go at some point they were not interested in, in long term concerns with the funding. they're really enjoying the short term profits, the they never published anything about what we found. so mobile is going to have a 2 sided attitude towards climate. if you feel uncomfortable about mobiles position, let us know they were not only funding and saying it wasn't a problem. they were publishing reports saying this is not an urgent problem. don't

drive the car, they say. so big cars is safe or is there a global warming problem? thousands of scientists say no. to this day, we suffer from that propaganda. it's something that many people still believe in the science is critical to understand that. but the politics of it are essential to solving the problem. but the politicians become dependent on all these interest companies for money to run their elections they really stopped us from taking action, keeping america competitive requires affordable, entered. how do you get a country that's an oil country to negotiate? not selling more oil. america is addicted to oil. the, the economy of that louisiana was industry is a very,

very precious war. and most everybody worked for the oil industry. and if anything were to happen to be so many people going without jobs and does he live in uh, louisiana. the only people like me have officers like signed on early to go into the military. mostly. or my plan for the future is to work for the oil industry. so i feel bad, but there's nothing really much that we could really do to stop it as a single person. the everybody has other things to worry about. do i have enough money to send my children to college? try for the insurance on my house. climate change can see. well yeah, it's important. yeah. it's a big risk,

but we don't have to deal with it right now. the day inevitably comes when you can push climate change drugs because it's starting to be such a big factor that you can see it in your own life. the is a traumatic because the areas that i once knew and was called home, i go and after all the families docs and everything for a shrimp boats and all that are down there and wants to lay and search the either way. the rows are going to either way and after we're going to have to start moving further, further up, the person that makes me happy is my girlfriend, carmen. she's one of

a car and she's special. she lives us to me and she understands me. she knows that i've been through i got diagnosed with chronic anxiety earlier this year as posttraumatic stress disorder. sometimes i could just start the stair off. there's something called like a 1000 yard stare and then i'll start to flash the i've seen a lot and i've been through a lot. i kind of always get worries and ever something bad happens to mr. russell. how are you doing today? get ready to go get some grass. no, yeah, i already got the boat to the wireless thing. we need to my grandfather used to go and kids grabbed as tramps but because of out of her chains,

nobody wants to live there just outside delivery system is not protected. so they get flooded off. okay, sounds too small. all the elders that live down the values, they live there, the whole life, but they're just not going to be around to fully see it. take effect is the use that's going to be around whenever it happens. the report that we're really here to talk to somebody. so please give a warm welcome to dr. rhodes.

but i'm also a scientist. i was fired earlier this year for holding up a banner editor of science conference. the banner said, out of the lab and into the streets, and we have that banner for about 30 seconds and for that i was fired. the i'm telling you the story though to explain why more of us scientists aren't out here in the streets with you. is because we are by and large compelled by our institutions to remain neutral, even in the face of environmental devastation. and for over 40 years, most of us have been so on behalf of the scientific community, i apologize for our cowardice. the somebody some time is going to have to grapple with big problems like climate

change. and if we don't, we just push off the responsibility into the future on other generations, including our own children. and that isn't just a matter of science. that's a matter of what are your morals, what are your ethical standards? what do you think about your fellow human being, the quality on the pets? and so 2 options await us in the immediate future. quite a crisis for climate revolution. let's choose revolution. we need that are good by drugs. no surprise to start i have 7 grandchildren and they will all be living on a much warmer planet with all the consequences, the each generation is going to continue to experience more intense impacts and have to live with them. the bosses don lifted

with a wave furniture that makes me very sad and upset that we we pushed about as hard as we could. we have a 100 year flood now occurring every 5 years. our air is polluted. our strides are on the you know what i think i want to do when i get older than life culture and move can see the water pump into the front of the boat and a leg state of mind is pumping up. that's all my say the back are those coming up to in the future? i imagine a pretty good future with a stable house living with carmen. but i most probably won't be living in southern louisiana. i might move up to like middle to northern louisiana. my home would be

under water at least to its roof. if not a little bit more. would you like to maybe come to the boat? i feel like i'd be good on the h, the human habit to create a mess and then move on to somewhere else. but humanity is going to make it stand here. it's not gonna happen at a scape or to some other place in the universe. these changes will be rapid, costly, and largely undesirable. the viability of many eco systems is at stake, as is perhaps the viability of civilization. as we know, the, since the consequences of ignoring climate change will be severe. it's time to act

. now the most say it's so sad that people didn't listen. if i knew this, others were cause they chose to ignore it. i feel a strong sense of disappointment. we tried our best to get people's attention. so i overestimated the potential for change it to the in the early days when i became aware of the climate issue,

my wife lenore gave birth to our son ethan. and i just start quite a bit about the world. the scene was going to be living in and i remember walking on a bridge near our house back in those days, you know, sort of wondering what's going to be like for him, the or 950 more years from now. again, 2081 is going to be most up to one of these coastal areas are

going to be flooded over it's going to be a band in the front of water. now, some sad to think about big difference. so what do you think we're going to do for how well this is the rent, but who pays the price? when we came to clean it, new orleans more than $1200.00 for black people lost their life. not a single rich americans lost their life. the real cost of the climate to emergency the most vulnerable of people who are suffering are poor people. but even rich people are going to be affected by the impacts of plan is just dying us off to the hurricane on down to 0, u. k. prime minister keystone lane to inspire our team members. but the annual

later ponti conference in the, the thought with tax rises on the horizon. and these quiet over the policy and gaza . you see, you can getting set the tough times ahead. notices on l 20. the safe them even from it as an international insight, corruption, excellence award, denominator hero. now

the a verbal concerns of a full scale war about the hezbollah and israel engaged. and some of the fist is fighting since october the, on the bulk of this. so just a lot will. so coming, dozens of palestinians are killed in this way. the strikes across the gulf and strip among the targets with schools where people are sheltering the celebration since for low income.
