10:30 am
go to school the we ask blind because the education that makes the world more just the make up your own double use made for mines the welcome global 3000. in northern canyon, a tenacious woman takes a stand for peace and women's rights. vietnam's prosperity. so does it been trust that is the way to put the brakes on the 1st the world is getting hotter because some people feeling the effects more than
10:31 am
others with climate justice the time it just, you know, she was that we're hearing more and more the climate justice link, so racial just social justice, intergenerational justice, these why they called only for climate action, but the climate just ah, the most that good shape the century will take back to climate change have to do with justice. all we all in this together. evidently not, it's in a forest fire, only some homes will be done to the ground. a mudslide, white thought one village at least another one touched. it's not just me. oh, are we asking questions to understand climate? just because we need to understand climate injustice. who cause
10:32 am
a climate change and who's hurt by it? let's 1st look at who's responsible as putting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and heating the planet. imagine this grain of rice is one ton of carbon dioxide. each year. the average person in nigeria less than one grain into the atmosphere ever spent in india to grand and china, 7 grains. jeremy, 10 grand in the us, 17 grain. and one year the average american police 20 times more than the average in that area. but the problem with carbon is that it stays trapped to be atmosphere for centuries. so that's not just about how much we added yet. it's about how much is piled up over time since $850.00 about us up to about $1500.00 giga. okay, so we want to pull loads of these rice bags on the table to show you how big that really is. but after doing the math, we realize we need 3000000 of them. historical emissions matter today because
10:33 am
countries are arguing about how soon they have to cut the met emissions down to their big, polluted like china, india and brazil. look a lot less guilty when you consider that you recently become part of the problems ah emergencies to court. the annual emissions, but that doesn't tell us anything about why or why we are in the current in 2020 reset to help countries responsible for pushing here to levels beyond the safety threshold that we crossed at 990. the study take into account how many people live in the country, how much they emitted throughout history, and include the missions across the board of trade goods. the research shows that countries have spent that carbon budgets buy a lot to global north of emitted 92 percent of the see are to push the planet be unsafe level asia, africa, the middle east and latin america have emitted just 8 percent. even
10:34 am
a massive middle like china is only just using up its carbon budget now. but if you live in a country that runs on this doesn't mean climate change is your fault personally. but some of your choices do still make a difference. because it's not just about where you live, but also how much you spend the, whether it's just one percentage. it's quite as much of the course, 50 percent, and delete live all over the world on equal emissions. one big reason why climate activists shouting about justice, everyone already is effected by the cancer crisis, just very different. but if we look at the ruling germany and sitting at the decision table for the past decade, they have not face responsibility or vital ads. now not slip to show that see to heat the planet by the same amount,
10:35 am
whether it comes from germany or kenya. the climate doesn't care about geography. well, geography cares about the climate. the 2nd part of climate injustice is that even the poor countries have done the least to change the climate. they're the ones getting hot merck's, take heat waves and drops heat waves the becoming most unbearable across africa where drought, the even more punishing for cross with. then the storms warmer and the hurricane and typhoons carry more energy and unleash more rain and stronger winds across the tropic. and by 2050 sea levels will have risen so high the floods which used to hit once a century district many coastal cities every single year the inequality, the climate change come to the hottest in a country like india. even those people have barely contributed to global warming. there among the most vulnerable indian coastal cities are facing unprecedented
10:36 am
floods while its rivers dry up. leaving thomas struggling, great staples, lake rice, and weak cindy. i went into most equitable countries in the world. and what we can see is that even if you take a city like when floods happen in the city, it's the poor that are the most impacted. this says pile a climate scientist who campaigns full time for climate justin, having grown up in a country like india. i grew up with inequality all around me. and this is essentially what it comes down to. the world is very unequal and it's playing out in terms of climate change as well. but that inequality is found within rich countries to black and brown. people in countries like the u. s. for the u. k. a typically par than white people. and that mean they have less money to spend on air conditioning to adapt to heat waves or flood insurance to rebuild up the storm. so
10:37 am
how can we make it fair? polluting country confessed time to time removing that pollution from the atmosphere. then they could pay reparations using more than the fair share of the mission. some country the company already doing something by paying for countries to not talk down part and instead countries but instead of using that saved carbon to attend to the climate decks. they're using it as an excuse to keep on emitted, ah, prime in what we have to be part of that discussion and time. and that in particular is where we think about who is, you know, we kind of divide up who is responsible for the kinds of changes and climate change meet with being and emphasizing, but also the kinds of time it's induce disaster that comes up to me. reparations
10:38 am
might sound radical, but rich countries already agreed to pay poor ones to adapt to climate change. imagine each of the piece, $1000000000.00 us dollars, rich countries promised a 100 of them, in climate financed by 2020. but it's 2021 and they haven't caught up in 2018. they gave 80000000000, but most of it was learned not grant you came based charity. sam found that the real aid was actually closer to 20000000000 yearly. we have not been meeting the kinds of target don't even know what countries have them, so that's fine. and mechanism, not men back to solve the problem with another approach takes climate justice more literally holding polluters to accounting court, deadly wildlife torture, portugal in 20176 young activists took 33 industrial countries to the european court of human rights. failing to cut their emissions quickly, they argue that the country to discriminate against young people who have to live
10:39 am
with the consequences of climate change. the verdict is still pending ah, in germany and the metal and high court judges have ordered the government to up their missions on cutting a mission. activists also want a case against royal dutch shell, forcing the company to pay for oil pollution and now demanding climate friendly investments to ah, so the, the basic legal argument for assigning responsibility is you know, contribution to the problem. so how much do you emit? how much do you contribute to climate change, greenhouse gas emissions? and what is the possibility for contributing to the solution? the defendants argue about national courts don't have the right to rule on the climate because emissions and the impacts are global. but a new generation of activists are fighting for them to take exactly that responsibility and give them climate justice nearly
10:40 am
1400000000 cars in the world today. and by 2015, that numbers predicted to double in 2020 alone, 78000000. new cars rolled off well to assembly lines. more cars means more land for road, more appellation, more noise and more congestion. and big city drive is already spent untold hours and traffic jams. and i'm seems very weak. we have to vietnam where the traffic has become truly monstrous. and it's not just the drivers who are suffering um, the feeling of impatience is constant attention um the in on, on my state of mind and my mood last the
10:41 am
so frustrating and annoying. ah, i think it's an issue that she's the local authorities mater, heading out on the home. she's not just the oldest sometimes is the color of the noise or what the hell. the traffic jam monster is really annoying. it's dark black and makes unpleasant film for lo. it has banks and it looks like every i bought a car in late,
10:42 am
2013 and then i felt freedom and comfort. i felt happy in going it's hard to find that feeling again all the way down. it's all, it's true that for most vietnamese people, a car is a similar success while they're being heal. but after you've been driving for
10:43 am
a while, the car becomes more of a tool and less of an asset. when someone haven't, i'm a winding down in the building my personal observations with the data we've collected show that in the past 20 years and then find out on the traffic related problems in viet nam have been getting worse and worse.
10:44 am
why not annoyed, developing so quickly and function? why now? it's like a powerful magnetic one might think . i think the challenge for major cities in vietnam right now is the transition from motor bikes because that will continue in the near future semi because it became the mars occupy more of the road. but they don't carry many people and then get them in the gym. vietnamese. people are very lazy when it comes to walking, the maximum distance we're willing to walk is about 300 meters mathematical teaching by one name. i don't if we want to promote public transport on it, we need to pay attention to planning and design to make it easier for people to access it. wire. no,
10:45 am
no. they're not really nice. people, especially in the cities, are used to writing motorbike. so even when their homes are very close to the offices of schools alone, me and i need to coordinate with schools to encourage children who will not tell us how to little activities on a regular basis. and children and parents can change their haven't, don't look a little more look at me. i don't know how i would have learned that when you cross the street, you have to stay on the pedestrian crossing the mall. right. and, and across the street you have to pay attention to the cars and cross at the right time of the
10:46 am
matter about my friends and my colleagues often ask me when i'm going to buy a car. but it was that it was my goal is to ride a bicycle as much as possible. me for walking. well, going with the sidewalks in vietnam art for pedestrians that says at all, i know i just did my schedule and my committee to avoid rush hours with my choices and a lot of other people probably do that to buy a new company. but the
10:47 am
we have to keep promoting public transport and provide adequate and affordable accessibility with consistent quality that everyone uses it. even wealthy people are willing to the mindset that we need to change and we need to learn to share with each other. and or the last year that were more than 70 conflicts and sub saharan africa most with islands, some lead to open warfare. the reasons for compliance funding often revolves around political power, land, and resources. these conflicts will only grow worse with climate change as water unusable land growth ever more of always in conflict required cooperation between
10:48 am
opposing parties. but key thing the piece can take grit and determination. the bush here in northern kenya has become almost a desert. the a one year old river reduced to little more than a trickle for years now. the area has had far too little rain shepherd up cooler, keeps his goats close to the water. at least there's something for the animals to graze on here. and he never strays far from his village sizes. these days, we fear for our safety. well, our neighbors cembura community keep attacking us, and that was where they kill and steal our livestock. how may i to help deescalate the conflicts habib teacher, often reaches out to the shepherds along the river. she used to have the local nature conservancy and is well known in the region. disputes over water and grazing
10:49 am
land have become frequent here. she negotiates with shepherds in this area of bell legal police or while other women are in dialogue with nearby community. we have many meetings. these meetings, especially like local willis. i'm leading leg sarah. there is a lead to quoting. so even though because we mother and we know the disadvantage is under the messages of the conflict. so we decide to sit with our young ones, those who are living in conflict, our husband. and that's what makes this unusual. women are taking the lead and making a difference. the canyon constitution upholds gender equality, but in practice, it's still the exception that kenyan branch of the environmental group t. n. c is led by more nearer and younger. she says kenya needs more women leaders
10:50 am
like happy by teacher, actually raising their voices, making a difference on how can someone please can be managed, especially for example, if there's a conservancy that has to be in facilities and they get conservation fees. these, the issue or file sharing of those proceeds between the operations of the conservancy and a percentage goes back to the communities so that it can, you know, invest in education, health facilities and others. the d. n. c runs 39 nature conservancy is in kenya. it also finances, the one in hub b, but we just community the conservancy is protect nature, offer job prospect, and encourage women to a greater role in society. how be returned each of benefited from the conservancy and this is now helping others. i know she and other women in her village has
10:51 am
built a culture center. they did a lot of the work themselves. the women rent out the home and the lodges to visitors and local people, which brings in money that's allowed them to set up a savings club. here the women give out loans to each other using income from the culture center subsidies from n g o z. as well as members own savings that might be routed each other leads the club. she's given loans of $250.00 to more than a 100 women, mostly to finance small business ventures, dining room. i got a loan from the savings club to invest in an electric motor for her cornmeal. now she can earn more money, like so many year. she's benefited from the nature conservancy. villainy luke? well, i want to see in the beginning of the local community here was opposed to the establishment of a conservative mama,
10:52 am
but how bieber lobbied for it so that women could benefit. she's very bray an issue . we just have one time she was even shot at i thought, but she wasn't intimidated. and just carried on with her work. i and i india, they were very happy. now. tell me how the voted. teacher doesn't want to talk about the threat she's received. she'd rather focus on being a role model for the next generation at the local school. she encourages children to give up, even when they face opposition. was it the girl? i don't allow yourself to be left behind and don't be shy all the time. during her time as head of the local nature conservancy, happy but at each secured funding for 2 more classrooms. here today, she's part of the council of elders and has arranged financial help for children from poor families to attend school. those who have prospects for the future she says, are less likely to engage in conflict. education is the best thing can our life in
10:53 am
a very modest life because illiteracy to nixa has been not stop, lift our standard for one good thing indication you have good jobs hunting, some follow this uplifting standard and even additional education to everything is important. if not that vision, i myself, i cannot be a leader of my community. she loves her work, but as often rushed off her feet. she has 3 children and also cares for her sick husband. then she has 2 small shops that she opened with loans from the saving club . thankfully, her eldest daughter is able to help out happy retired teacher hopes her daughter will follow in her footsteps. and she certainly seems to have inherited her
10:54 am
