to talk about the there is a significant risk of human extinction from advancing our system. our series continues dw, the listen say, make renatta flores is peruse queen of catch why? right? the make polluters pay will the c o 2 tags that you've all climates the and all me educate is how gun those to schools the changing the usa, the
9:31 pm
take a look what happened the even presidential candidate donald trump, nearly so victim to the run, put a gun violence in the us, on the 13th of july, 2024 during a rally a bullet now or the missed him. the us now has moved firearms. them. people estimate suggest to move in full $100000000.00, and they were tens of thousands of fatalities every year. including children and young people in school and college shootings. the tennessee it did like mountains. a real paradise also for gun enthusiast. gone long as here are lax. gary stood him from sullivan county. tells us that pretty much everything is allowed from carrying a loaded firearm in public weather open layer concealed to not needing a permit background check for safety training. gary himself doesn't make use of
9:32 pm
this. right. but he's happy about the liberal gun laws. only like minded people have been elected to represent the district, all of them. republicans, no democrats, he tries to explain his fellow countryman, fascination with guns to us is just how we're isn't brought up in that soccer up in southwest virginia. we had gun safety classes in school hunting safety classes. i grew up with the guns in my home. we were taught from a very young age to respected and the how to do it safely. and you have to have a logical gun control. this is not the weapons, that's a problem. gary takes us along to visit west ridge high school. lately teachers state wide had been allowed to carry a gun in the classroom. this was tennessee's political response to a deadly school shooting. a republican majority pushed through the controversial
9:33 pm
law despite calls for more gun safety from democrats. this school employs an armed sheriff, but not all schools can afford that. feedback from teachers about carrying a firearm has been mainly positive. we have free buildings on campus and it's pretty spread out. so that's a kind of an issue. we can't have safety in every location. we have nearly 1200 students in our high school. you know, we'd be good to have, you know, a little bit more you know, protection in place for our students, for the right for the right people there's, there's a good possibility that i'll look into it. i wanna hear a little bit more about it. gary himself is also a teacher. he takes us to the local sheriff who has a say and whether to give teachers guns on the work, they have to undergo training and take an aptitude test before being armed and inform local authorities. but sullivan county sheriff has doubts. my concern would
9:34 pm
be somebody that's never had firearms training or they put in more harm to the kids with friendly fire or they're not cognizant of the gun that they have on their side like we are. this is part of this is almost like a extension of my hip. it's always here with a, you know, go in the restroom and in, you know, put it up somewhere and leave it. okay. so we don't want to cause more harm to staff and students. dealing with weapons is a topic that divides american society. a good example is the twin city of bristol. the border between tennessee and virginia runs along the middle of its main street . on the bristol virginia side gun rights were abruptly restricted after the republicans. there was a us power on the other side of the street in tennessee. gun laws were liberalized in response to worlds in one place. and really all we could do is put in a resolution to make ourselves a 2nd amendment sanctuary. accounting. that meant that, you know, we're,
9:35 pm
we're opposed to any gun laws that we're going to be restrictive uh, towards the constitution and the, the citizens, silva and county. and that passed 240 very easily, but it's a symbolic fire arms manufacturer and sales is an ongoing issue in the us. in this shop can shows us the range of guns to choose from. we carry teachers and other buyers are spoiled for choice. if they've never owned a gun and they're looking to purchase their 1st gun, typically what we will do is tell them, look, i can sell you any gun in here if you want, but whether or not as of right then for you. i don't know. even though they are clearly in the minority democrats here are committed to continue to fight against gun violence. want to effect change. our c gloria johnson was also a teacher and is appalled by the new legislation in tennessee or across the us.
9:36 pm
most americans feel the same way, but here in tennessee, she's one of very few. it's hard for 27 years. and the idea of having a gun in my classroom is ridiculous. there is no universe in which this is a problem solver. for the gun violence issue. we need to stop guns from ever entering the school house. they want to bring gun. they wants to bring the gun bottles into a class for a ludicrous. we already know that police officers only shoot about 18 percent accuracy in a back and forth gun battle. do we think teachers are going to somehow do better? statistically, tennessee is ranked among the top 10 us states with the most gun deaths. even people suffering from mental illnesses can own a gun. surprisingly, gary does not find that problematic. but he says that
9:37 pm
a lot more psychological help should be available. you can't go take all the guns back off the streets of 200 and some years. and we manufacturing them and they are one of the top selling things that you have in the country when it comes to sporting goods. so you can, you're not going to be able to curtail that. what we need to do is fix the, the true problem is mental health. we need the states and the federal government to do something about and opening up a mental health facilities treatment facilities to do something with that. so i don't see it as a gun problem. america's gun obsession is a never ending issue. and it gets more politically charged during campaigns to arm or this arm. it's an emotional battle with seemingly insurmountable differences. the,
9:38 pm
the c o 2 is destroying all the time it, we've known that for a long time. and yet we continue to use huge amounts of coal, oil, and gas. it's time to hike the cost of emissions and slash fossil fuel, profane c o $2.00 tax could be the solution. this piece of ancient plas samantha take started in error or loss missing majorly without planning. of course, the most logical way of stopping that is binding less of this and other fuels. but that's not happening nearly fast enough into the carbon tax and alluringly simple idea. just put the price tag on carbon emissions that are destroying our planet, the more you pollute, the more you pay, leading and siri to less pollution and making clean alternatives more appealing. almost 30 countries worldwide have a form of it. so kind of a common tax stop us from polluting, but 1st things 1st,
9:39 pm
why are we focusing on carbon? that's because as soon as we've done this, it becomes the biggest trouble amaica. when you band co dom it's vast amounts of c o 2. the same goes for oil and gas. carbon emissions from fossil fuels are by far the biggest pollutant that's responsible for climate change. this is regular air and this is what we're doing to atmosphere right now. and once we turn on our son, this one starts heating up much quicker. a little bit of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is great because carbon dioxide is really, really good at the absorbing and radiating the heat that gets reflected from the surface. it's what makes our planet warm enough to live on, but we're taking a little bit too far with all of this. we're blowing more of the stuff into the air almost every year. the only 2 dips you can see here,
9:40 pm
the 2009 financial crisis and the curve at 19 pandemic. not exactly intentional and pretty catastrophic, but the common text ideally would change that makes things that pollute a lot more expensive so that people will buy or use less of it. and then time this will make clean up, acknowledges cheaper and more attractive. it's so appealing because it seems so simple and logical fit drives the lowest cost ways of reducing emissions. simon, to do the works for the canadian government. it's how the form of federal carbon tax since 2019. and it just sort of sends abroad signal to the marketplace that pollution shouldn't be free and, and then it kind of lets all of the actors decide for themselves how best that works in their businesses and in their lives. $27.00 countries in many more regions and cities have a carbon tax. it all started on surprisingly with the scandinavians, finland,
9:41 pm
norway, and sweden, as well as poland, 1st introduced carbon taxes in the early ninety's. since then, many countries have joined the club. but the reality of a carbon tax is more complex than some economists might think. then many different ways to tax carbon emissions. you could tax the entire economy or just the specific fixed up some taxes, only target companies of a certain size. a lot of the carbon taxes worldwide taxes on fossil fuels. that means fossil fuel firms must pay for every leto cubic meter of oil, gas, and coal they extract. but in many cases, the additional cost is passed onto the consumer, incentivizing them to use less of it. the next question is what to do with all the money you just collected. one way is to reduce other taxes in sweden. one is called this the green tax shift. this is christy on to him on he advised the swedish
9:42 pm
government on tax policies for 10 years. one, use an increase in environmental succession to reduce the taxes on labor. that would be considered to be a growth enhancing reform. switzerland uses 2 thirds of its revenue to reduce health insurance and social security payments and invest the rest into low emission infective. canada. takes it one step further. revenue, we collect from that federal fuel charge, the vast majority of that is returned directly to individuals and households. true lump sum payment since it was really designed to help with the affordability of carbon refreshing overall. and that's the idea of redistribution doesn't have to stay within one country. if it was spread out globally, the ritual nations could give the collective taxes to the countries of the global south, which a much less responsible for climate change. but i hit the hardest as
9:43 pm
a global common tax would make that possible. a good idea in theory, but if you've ever heard anything about climate negotiations, you know that getting everybody to agree to a set tax rate is going to be really difficult for. there is another way of pricing common that needs to be mentioned. it's called emissions trading. what this means putting a cap on the amount of seo to sub and industries kind of meant a company that exceeds that limit, must by extra allowances or will face penalties if a company and it's less they can sell those allowances to other companies. this is suppose to ensure that the entire industry stays within the designated limit. the you, for example, have a system like this in place. the same goes for china, indonesia and mexico. together carbon taxes and emissions trading systems already cover around a quarter of a carbon emissions worldwide. so whether a carbon tax works on depends on how high it is. that means how much money it has
9:44 pm
to pay tongue tongue limited carbon dioxide. a metric ton of c o 2 is water in one way. flight from new york to paris and it's the passenger or the emissions produce driving some 4000 kilometers with an average calm or binding of a 900 of these cold. but kids are guar. i have the highest common tax rate in 2023 followed by many european countries. but the tax rate rapidly falls to less than $20.00 from many nations. most carbon taxes are set up to become more expensive with time to the task. future investment economist and policy makers have for 40 years to find out how expensive a carbon tax has to be to work. but they agree on one thing. the price is right now, far too low carbon taxes to, to only take effect upwards of $60.00 to a 100 euro is potomac, meaning right now most countries are not texting common enough at tools and know the worry about putting a price on carbon,
9:45 pm
is that if $1.00 country decides to introduce a tax, the companies will just go abroad. one of the ways to prevent that is good all terrace. that's what the you is doing. if you want to import carbon intensive goods like cement are in and steel or electricity, for example, you need to pay a carbon terrace. arguably, the biggest total, the as political opposition. not going to win elections by raising or even introducing new taxes. quite the opposite. the low prices of that we see for both carbon taxes and each uses is a feature. it's not above politicians, the policy makers are afraid to make carbon emissions more expensive because they will be punished at the polls. one way around that is to reduce other expenses so i can sweetening switzerland, and the other is tax rebates, like in canada. so i think the prize of calvin lowered fast and then only gradually increasing. it is also cheap, but even then carbon taxes, tempe extremely contentions,
9:46 pm
as seen here in canada. even still countries like indonesia, morocco and send a go, a planning or considering a carbon tax, brazil, malaysia, vietnam, nigeria and others are doing the same with emissions trading systems. overall, the share of emissions covered by common pricing has been rising steady lea a carbon tax is by far not as simple and effective as it sounds at 1st. and if can be more trouble than it's worth it alone, one solve the problem. but putting a price on pollution is a step in the right direction. the it draws visitors from far and wide. the new 3 mountain railway is one of indies, oldest, passing through the military hills in time. and now to the town of
9:47 pm
canoe is a major stump on the way tourists are very welcome here. in addition to the rolling t plantations, holidaymakers are a key source of income. but there are downsides. 16 tons of waste are produced each day by the towns $45000.00 residence. then there's the garbage left where the tourist caught the rest of the 192000, but more than 10 years ago in 2013 after the festival of the wiley, i saw a facebook post written by one of my friends stating that they were going to clean the waste, thrown on by the tourists of the $1.40 joined. so i decided to join in la nadia and slowly, many other volunteers joined us do. then we started to dream about cleaning up the river that runs to canada. and it was while cleaning the river that we started looking for a place i need to dump the waste to quickly and go to corporate loan through profit, the loss of nadia and the some of it there was no modern landfill site and to newer
9:48 pm
at the time so the idea of processing, the waste was born, the volunteer trash collectors, set up the clean co, newer organization. their aim to keep the mountains clean for themselves and their visitors. the 1st step was to separate the garbage into dry and wet waste. the web garbage is made of mostly of animal and plant waste too though not made to base 2 out of the one that we collect all the lead waves in one place inside the width. we found it in the front and then it is shifted to work on veil pallet organic with a non organic impurities are removed from the bottom. but i after the zation on it is then mixed with other vegetables and food waste. allow me a lot for the mix. funny. this mixture then has to dry. during the process, it gets regularly turnover. after 40 days, the dry mass has been shredded and ground. the result is high quality fertilizer
9:49 pm
that is bought up by local farmers. so the ot flower farm is a regular customer, the full color more than the typical ready for all the flowers. why we need a value of $6.00 to $7.00 and our for the lies, then what is the because this for 2 lines that has the smallest growth vasquez's, but it's also the nitrogen, phosphorus, neutron production vision and its contents. mike, the nutrients do and secondary newton's like magnesium, sausage and catch the of all these tell the blogs to robo caller looking quantity and quality with top results and a lot of good movies. life of the plants has also increased nor now process is 2 thirds of its garbage. waste is turned into fertilizer and 85 percent of dry waist is recycled. are in. that's an overlay of a little bit because we are successfully managing ways and within the small town, the limited number of people, resources and market as well. if we can do that. sure. it would definitely be
9:50 pm
possible in larger towns or not. however many advantages over us, perhaps we're probably in lots stone or there are no problems with drugs available and there's a lot more got the one in here. so we have to do everything by hand. but it's not the thrones for to manage with like this law that would also be a great success or a little bit on the law. it can be a very successful tourist or again flocking to the town, drawn by the famous railway. and because could, nor is a picture of the town which has got its waste problem under control, the child will strike a check to a blue sky game. i
