11:21 am
a tough. place to do the freedom of religion or we would not. need to teach the will it play but i'm going to snuggle so that's. one day when you are a few years old enough you will fall in love and some. of this i am absolutely certain. i'm sure it will be magical wherever it happens. like here in the pond at the bottom of a disused gold mine. i
11:22 am
really want to buy that got. nothing back. i thought people i do too but of course will. know them. if they don't fall. maybe they did let me go to it but what's the definition oh no. this is again you knew some of the september. done with an impersonal you could only book full of it and still cook when the next time say. you're just stood in the. dock. to do things to get up when you don't like going to
11:23 am
listen i was honest and i would get it on you was not good to do you did so good when i don't want to tell me listen to what's going to stop so you need. no. you're. just doing it would you know the words were in the city put starlet in the state the most for this morning's aren't reasonable and you tell me please. visit the world and it will determine what is really interesting for. this just in the mood to sure that was where the mother says cursed. at them would attest. you posted doc was a gun with a so i just. as
11:24 am
a damn what the saw i did i was the boss through each thought that was it but it was time she. boarded a guest post as a reason to not must hear. mr just foster a discussion out so which he did he she chip which you got. as opposed to get it she said one. thing is. every day in this region 1000 train cars on loaded with coal and transported to cities in russia germany and china. the same coal provides the heat and the electricity for my own city and since. there is still enough coal here to last another 100 years. well into
11:25 am
a lifetime. extra. to last for its work. is the one of the. thing it took a month iran torrens. the next person i want you to meet is someone i admire very much he's one of the world's most respected climate scientists. in 1908 brought the real dangers of climate change to the world's attention. how do you think your grandchildren or all their grandchildren will see you.
11:26 am
well they might think gee what took you so august started. but i think in my case i'm you know i work in so hard now that at least they know that in the latter part of my life i was really trying so i don't think they will blame me personally i'm not worried about that i think the people who should be worried about that are the people who deny the reality of climate change even though the science has become clear. what you can expect in the middle of the century in the 2nd half century the pan you know in we still hayao. alternatives is still d.
11:27 am
paleness on what happens especially in the next decade. in some sense we've passed already some of the tipping points we're going to have some climate impacts which are greater than what we see already. there's the potential that thanks could really go downhill that the costs of climate change will become so large that the economies will really go back work well if not collapse at least become much less well to do. no matter how badly we mess up this planet it's still worth saving what's
11:28 am
left and most of it is still laugh so of course there is every every reason to try to stay positive and try to get some action that will work in the right sounds but it had better be soon. or young people will bear the consequences. his soul the ocean i think that's definitely the biggest part of being marshallese and big part of being an islander is just that ocean presence. institute you know even just driving to work it's just ocean on either side of all the time. the in danger is a very dangerous yeah. yeah we you know
11:29 am
a lot of marshallese for is believed to have a lot of respect for the ocean because you know i can take lives away in any moment . i didn't want to follow the news anymore on climate because i was just so disheartening all of the news. it would barely mention us if it did mention us and then when did mention us was comparing us to like so atlanta is or it's not like what should we do to help them it's all about well this is going to happen and you know poor marshallese people. also when i look at my daughter you know she's just a baby what am i going to do tell her give up you know you don't want to get a lot of baby into your life scare your baby and tell her that everything's going to nothing's going to work out you want to comfort her you want to make them feel better and you want to believe that things will get better.
11:30 am
thanks. the i think. a small part of the changes you will see are already the. simple to us. in the marshall islands and also here in california where 5 schools by the was trying to in the state's history blankets the landscape and smile. we're on our way to a climate summit in new york. where world leaders will make the decisions that shape your future. it's.
11:31 am
just. the i. still see you all doing the work. but i hope that you remember as you go across the country that 150 of you and there's 160000000 people all around the world who think like we do and who are the figures. i know that we're calling this the kind of the same we should also call it the oil industry's worst night. and i'll see you on the yard thanks for. being my. mom. when i think about my great grandchildren and the future looking back at me. i don't think they'll respect me if i just say to politicians you should do something i feel that that i should do something. you know yeah well one of the
11:32 am
problems is a lot of people are now beginning to not because they're afraid they're going to get blamed by their. children or grandchildren because they love their children and grandchildren and they want them to health the kind of world that we helped and so they want to do something and unfortunately what they usually do is decide well i'll do the sayings that i think need to happen. well that's all well and good except how do you get the other 7000000000 people to do it you think i can be an example for the other so well it's like you say you say ok i'm right i'm going to use my car anymore i'm where i use a bicycle while k. that that reduces your carbon footprint and if you get a 1000000 a year france to do that or 10000000 or even
11:33 am
a 1000000000. the biggest one of the effects would be to reduce the price of fossil fuels and somebody else will burn them unless you make the price of fossil fuels higher somebody is going to burn that you can look at this situation if we if everybody in europe and united states decides all this is wrong i'm going to stop driving my vehicle sync that's going to change things in china. you may hope that you're going to convert everybody in some country to do what's right and then try to use that for moral suasion in other countries well you're not going to do it fast enough to solve the climate problem.
11:34 am
it's been 37 years and i still have the same recurring dream it's about my dad you know great great grandfather in my tree my dad comes back he isn't dead he's just been away. in my dream i am overcome with happens and relief it never happen you never died. and then the next moment i am furious with him. how could you have abandoned us. how could you do it why have you been and in all the trains i have ever had he has never said a word and although i love to see him in my dreams. i am most hurt by that silence
11:35 am
. it's a reminder that he really is somewhere far beyond my reach. that there are things that can be lost forever. that once they happen. you can never get them back. let's go a little bit to good dog park. and to fear. yeah. how do you deal with it how do i deal with fear. i think my my hope is in action i if i'm not in
11:36 am
action with what i believe in with what i value with what i know is right. those can be those idle times are the darkest moments for me are converging to talk about the climate crisis oh you know we need more than top you need. oxygen now i still feel that. that fear and that darkness. but. when i'm in action when i'm aligned with what i believe and when i'm with other people that. are willing to stand up in this critical and difficult moment together that. gives me. purpose and meaning and in a way that is not connected to the outcome of what happens. yes
11:37 am
. i'm on a journey. i set out maybe 30 years ago 40 years ago. you know much more than that to 75 and i set out to really try to do something about the racial problem to not. do do you have grandchildren call i have a grandson who's 8 years old. do you think do you think about what
11:38 am
the world will be like for them off of their children. killed your grandchild children. well i do think about it and i would imagine that it will be different in ways that are on the message and to me i think there may be some ways that will be a match and. so i'm just very much on my mind. i sometimes i sometimes feel overpowered by the vision no for what the future would be like but i think it's i think that it's a very real issue and one of the problems that it did arise as we're allowing despair to really enter into your psyche is that by. by allowing that you're not actually end up hurting the people who logged.
11:39 am
that. you don't feel fear i don't go. here now that i'm not here why is that says a lot of ties. here . because.
11:40 am
in the city and the story there is another little girl and you should meet her this is not the philippines. a mom is kathy from the marshall islands. he is smiling i do 500 applicants from all over the world kathy was chosen to speak at the opening of the climate summit. in 2 days' time she will step in front of the leaders of the world to represent the voice of ordinary people. it's so weird my uncle dwight went in for the united nations and he was the 1st draftsman he was one that he's a 1st marshal used to speak out against nuclear testing and that was in 1964 i
11:41 am
think. and i was thinking about him when i was flying up here i was thinking like what is what was he thinking was he scared you know was did he feel prepared capsulated terrified thinking about us you know and i wonder if there's going to be someone down the line who's going to look back at me like that. i'd like to say i hope that they see us fighting you know that we're trying to do everything we can to maintain you know 20 changes have been. i. am i need to be given you know. i'm from the much time how much i'm going to not in defeat and we're only 2 meters up on the mountain
11:42 am
. be one of the i'm going to be here when i want to be. on. let's let's talk about cathy ok let's talk about kathy i love kathy i do i think we're older here. how was she chosen to speak at the opening of the u.n. climate summit well. the big after so that question. through openness. sorry i'm proud to say that the us opened and allowed me to run a process that invited nominations from anyone anywhere. and further supportive to that openness fire providing translations of my invitation. for nominations in all the un languages. and then i got
11:43 am
a call from susan and she was like you're the one who's chosen you're the one who's going to hold it to the open in front of all these heads of state you know your life's about to change our sources like was. ok if you'd just i was totally shocked and i was super excited and. and then reality set in thank you so much for being here. i think 3. strands she told me later that her partner said to her whenever she was struggling with this how she could carry this pressure carry this moment and be the representative of global civil society as one young woman from the marshall islands she said that her partner told her that this is bigger than you now you know. and that was how she registered with what she had just stepped up to do. there i says my girls. i want.
11:44 am
to live it. there is a saying that people died twice. once when they physically die and once when nobody recognizes them in the photograph. but that's not true. for the 12 years that i knew my father was a loving caring parent. something that he had not experienced
11:45 am
himself something better that he wanted to give his own children. what we do can live much longer than us for both good and bad. most people in the world. would say the same they want to leave the world having made a difference and to very few of those people or is it given the gift of actually achieving that watch even a fraction of because i think it's probably only a fraction of what one hopes to not one does succeed in doing but that fraction is worth it.
11:46 am
i think if you bring up a chart. and as you have brought yours have your children i think you've done it for them. it's the foundation you can if people have that's the most that's the greatest a parent can hear. i i. i was.
11:47 am
climate change is such a fine english of our age leaders of the world i pretend for a living but you do not. the people made their voices heard on sunday around the world and the momentum will not so i was just scared i was terrified basically i was just saying i was practicing at a wall and invading was crying she was screaming in the back to which didn't know how i was getting stressed out it was like oh my gosh of the baby but i have to perform and so i was terrified from the march please
11:48 am
welcome can't be jack knew. my family and i have traveled a long way to be here today all the way from the marshall islands you want to perform it's pretty durable because the words just kind of take over for me and i just lose myself in the words. and it happened i would now like to share with you a poem to have written for my daughter wants a filipino. dear mind to fill it being you know you are a 7 month old son rise of gummy smiles you're bald as an egg and bald as the buddha you are thighs that are thunders shrieks that are lightning so excited for bananas
11:49 am
hugs and our morning walks along the loo coon deer much offended. i want to tell you about that lagoon that lazy lounging in the goon lounging against the sunrise men say that one day that the goon will devour you they say it will not the shoreline chew at the roots of your bread fruit trees gulp down rows of sea walls and crunch through your island shattered bones they say you your daughter and your granddaughter too will wander rootless with only a passport to call home. to your month's offensive being no don't cry mommy promise you no one will come and devour you know greedy wail of a company sharking through political seas no backwater bullying of businesses with broken morals no blind folded bureaucracies going to push this mother ocean over
11:50 am
the edge no one's drowning baby no one's moving no one's losing their homeland no one's becoming a climate change refugee. or should i say no one else to the carteret islanders of coppell in new guinea and to the taro islanders of i take this moment to apologize to you we are drawing the line here because we baby are going to fight your mommy daddy who would you my your country and your president too we will all fights. and even though there are those hidden behind platinum titles who like to pretend that we don't exist who like to pretend that the marshall islands to baalu kato by small these type one ion in the philippines floods of algeria colombia pakistan and all the hurricanes earthquakes and tidal waves didn't they. still there are those who see
11:51 am
us cancer reaching out this crazy banners unfurling megaphones booming and we are a news block in coal ships we are the radiance of solar villages we are the fresh clean soil of the farmers past we are teenagers blooming potations we are families biking recycling be using engineers building dreaming designing artists painting dancing writing and we are spreading the word and there are thousands out on the streets marching hand in hand chancing for change now and they're marching for you baby. they're marching for us because we deserve to do more than just survive we deserve to die. dear much offended been know you are eyes heavy with drugs you wait so just closed those eyes and sleep in peace
11:52 am
because you won't let you down. you'll see. you know kathy hasn't been able to quite take him how rare a standing ovation is in the u.n. general assembly hall even trying to explain to her that this hardly ever happens. you know this kind of a meeting where you have a summit and heads of state and their delegations these people have a lot of armor the fact that she got those people with all that armor on to stand
11:53 am
up and feel you know i think that's a miracle. if worse if we're very very close to achieving an ambitious legal agreement. but there's just a few people that haven't shifted yet and they are just people and she contributed changing just one of those mimes because of her performance i mean it's possible and even if it's just one person that's a huge victory. so i'm really grateful to her for bringing a miracle and i got so i got to live it and i got to live it in a really close way and that's amazing and i'll have that for the rest of my life as a memory i mean i start crying now because you know if i'm here for 30 or 40 more years. no matter how hard it gets i'll always have this memory.
11:54 am
so you got me again. now it was really really something. wow that was what. you know it's hard it's hard to do that. when you think of your accomplishment. and cathy's accomplishment. what does it make you think about the power of what one person can do. well you know my favorite quote by margaret me never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world indeed it's the only thing that ever has. this story started from last. but there are some things that you can't change.
11:55 am
but i no longer believe. what can one person doing. i mean what difference. what difference can one person make. a lot there's a lot anybody can do there's so much look at all these these people who have stood up you know marching to king jr. they did so much anyone can do a lot doesn't have to be on a global scale you know it can be a lot for just your community or your family if you mean everything to somebody and that's doing a lot right there. yeah i don't know why people don't think they can make changes happen or that they can't they can't do anything i don't. i don't believe is it because they think that they have to be a gun. or a market max or martin luther king jr you know they feel they feel like i'm just
11:56 am
i'm just now just regular guy yeah i'm pretty sure they're regular people i mean when i met al gore i was like regular dude pretty ordinary and he know what you think they're like this guy like take their untouchable like you know he they're there it's al gore and then you meet him and where you do you know everybody is just ordinary you know i just don't. i was see. as a point of waiting basically for somebody else because. as we come to the end of the story. i'm hopeful for you and your future. we can each of us pick up the torch. we can make a difference. we
11:57 am
need to extend the love we have for our children and grandchildren a generation further. to the children we will never be. to the world we will not seen. and to the things we will not benefit from. it is perfectly possible. and when you look back at us and our generation. i hope it will be with a sense of amazement and pride. that when you turn the last page in your. we. you will have been able to write the perfect ending to any good story. just when you thought all's lost and hopeless. in the end. it wasn't.
