global warming and climate change us political and ethical uses that issues of the rights of equality and of hello and welcome. i'm finally got the body and you all watching. he going to what is exhilarating human in deal was climate change. i'm making extreme that events more frequent and intense. who is generating these slanted warming emissions and who is the most one of these questions go on international climates, negotiations, but are just as relevant hyper who stands in the heat and who can afford to ac in today's episode, let's take a look at some of these questions, that's that on the idea of climate justice we often speak of climate change as a distant phenomenon that doesn't really impact us. but the truth is that we are all being false to increasing easy. all lies is that it does, in fact all the for some our lives in more than the other in the as a card most while little country to the impacts of climate change by 2050,
4:03 am
according to a recent report by climate. this export. what's in these in fax, on all 4 of easy and then do we have a right to be free from them? and what does that mean? wouldn't mean this queens busted is a long way from high to migrate 3 bits. b c's comes to roger stein and west in india from the central asian steps every year. but this one got cool top and high voltage electric cables and was no longer able to fly back. fortunately, the conservation is rod a. some bish noise was close at hand the, the domain is a, it has shown a lot of improvements over the last 2 months. now it can fly port, but we're waiting for other migrate people to arrive in winter, but will release this one with all the others when he gets out of school, need to go to a
4:04 am
a closely related species to the queen's busted is also native to this region known as the great indian busted or g i. d, the showed just a 128 of them survive in the wild. in spite of conservation efforts, dozens of bust, it's died when colliding with the electrical power infrastructure each year. this wave of power lines comes from india is push for its renewable energy time it goals . the grid solar panels on wind turbines need large trucks of open land, but with lots of wind and nearly year around sunshine. this part of the bunch of stuff has been chosen to become the center of india is clean energy future. the plants proponents like easiest thing, hope it will be a game changer for the economy. this will be new bill energy sector if we will buy a new report. this sick day is going to collect investment off premiums in the country. so if investment comes, the employees, what it goes,
4:05 am
everyone is going to be positively impacted. but what's more important? green energy or wildlife conservation. this question ended up in india, is called rims. in 2021, the court ruled that all new electrical power lines be laid underground, a heavy cost that could make whole future renewable energy projects on viable, serious social and environmental concerns, which as, as auto renewable energy use. this, this blind, it's of having the renewable energy buckler that solar wind in bio diversity hot spots in, in, in yes, which looks better, but is actually very important from dividing that perspective from the every funding perspective, from the, from the perspective of gospel in species. when they should not be a ground on which these ideas of opened up. however,
4:06 am
the supreme court decided in 2020, for the bio diversity protection, kind of come up the expense of carbon neutral energy production. the quote of a ton, the earlier ruling to allow overhead power lines for renewable energy projects. we have to move to green energy because solar and wind and all of this. and therefore, we cannot have such a large area for conservation of the g. i know d, i b is protected not only on the y lift protection act, it is also under the conventional migratory species as well as conventional biology because there was no one can point out when they are not talking about are not concerned about the will being lost in the space space of the nature fall from the courthouse debates. shepherds like kitchen sing must find ways to eat counted, living on rapidly, shrinking gross lands the conquered. i'm not. i used to
4:07 am
be able to let my sheep graze anyway a bit, but now the solar power plants have been installed. there was census everywhere we set out so we can no longer find land integrates on a ship. it died as mold ross, land is diverted for renewable energy production. the condition of the remaining open step is worsening to impart to rise in global temperatures. that are the deal that does it region has k i cadre and google glasses, which also have some additional properties. now the still exist in most of these girls lot as a would be our research shows like decline and the presence every way gets out the another prevailing species is to say when ross is which is particularly suited to come to the does it have a top tar particularly, and it's not found anywhere else in the country or this is a really me like
4:08 am
a basically be did is a finding the most in this region. one of the osman upcoming i india is pilot needs set to rise deeply in the years ahead. even those fighting to protect species like the great indian busted, agree with the need to replace fossil fuels with renewables as quickly as possible . but they stretch that citizens must be vigilant to ward off any unintended consequences. differential ecosystems, the vienna david that happened with every single court, including the quotes of the district level and recognizes that was impact of climate change. and that's willing to, to consider this not just as a public interest litigation, but a set of i really just split the issue because ultimately climate change is about sort of ivan, of human and non human species. successfully financing, species, conservation, and renewable energy is challenging. but also key to ensure the future as all eco
4:09 am
systems and communities. the many communities rely heavily on nature or live in cool standing them with it. and of course, they're also the most one the, the impacts of climate change. many of these communities are forest dwellers, or fishers, or farm us is almost always that contribution to climate change is negligible, but they often suffer the vast consequences. they are very hud, but sometimes support comes from an unexpected direction. this is the story of a fisherman. in southern india, the founder of on know, comes out here to the beach every day. he's a fisherman, but here on the coast of thumb, know, people can barely make a living from what they catch at the bottom. all this has
4:10 am
a smart phone with him on the boat. he's been using it to know, don't everything you observe out here for 6 years now. the fishes habitus has been steadily declining and he knows from environmental is the climate change? is it likely cause god of barbara got the bug at all? i look at the see with skies greens and preachers. whether or not the sun's visible . if there was a red early morning sky or rainbow lightning tonda. we did data for up to 47 categories like this one, and i'll put that and i'll put in a get that number because he records all his data in victor labels so that none of his observations can go missing. bottom of the not or as an artist, she tries to make scientific topics accessible to her work, including climate change. she met to follow him during her research.
4:11 am
i thought this was something that needed to be recorded for posterity in one sense . and i also thought it would be wonderful to use his knowledge as of to some new knowledge of the ocean to talk about the ocean. it was, you know, literally the ocean being given a voice through the bus and a fall and whatnot. she does fall in story in the field. the features in heard exhibits in the living ocean. the ma, i'm, i went through this through, we explained to people that the climate is changing and we tell them about how people of the boss used to live. how times have changed, how the climate has changed, and we explained all of this good. this to the bottom of the oddest dixon encourages the viewer to reflect for themselves on the impacts of climate change. thoughts doesn't sort of key to on the head. and so to make you feel defensive off
4:12 am
doesn't instruct it proposes and then the viewers can take away an idea on a piece of information and hopefully act on it to make a bit of a difference. in his exhibition deduction not to throw a headed museum into night, shows how human activity is impacting our oceans, pollution noise, and rising. see, temperatures affects the creatures along side far with the other artist have also dedicated the works to the various subsets of climate change back to what's called v and oceans forest, which are by the hash tag collected. and as you move around the, what's the works themselves change. so on the one side, you see what a healthy man looks like or what a healthy color a bed looks like. but as they move around the to see what happens when they get degraded. so in this way, we're also trying to show the impact it's, it's
4:13 am
a visceral moment when you see what can happen by them has also taken on his very 1st torkel spot for the project. an installation with fishing nets, the re mostly by these nets for more, i meet this piece for the duction not to throw museum because of the bar, but this is the 1st time i have done anything like this. but don't, don't really will. even on the 1st attempt, she's pleased and i'm happy with it doing now like you going to the bottom, the fisherman and part of it, the artist, people from very defend walks of life. but united india shared the desire to make a difference and draw attention to climate change and what it means for us humans. now when you get the opposite, i'll watch the scene in this episode so far. those who generate
4:14 am
a half the carbon footprint, what have all the money and the means in this was to protect themselves from most explained by them. those we have all seen glimpses into the lives of these rich millionaires and their lifestyles on the internet. but who is paying for all of this? and i don't mean the money. i mean the has the slanted warming image should welcome to the filthy mimes of the ultra rich. this is a world of helicopters, jets mentions and rockets. cutting these peoples emissions is the easiest wind for the climate. it comes at 0 costs to anyone except them. and well they can afford it . so just health dirty are the world's richest people. and how do we clean them up? answering the 1st question is tricky, because nobody is forced to report their own emissions. scientists take estimates of the carbon pollution from an activity or product and combine them with data
4:15 am
about how often you do or buy it. that's hard enough to get right for yourself, but when it comes to building this, this is even harder because you don't have that much information about them. be at least borrows worked of the carbon footprints of 20 billionaires in 2018. got to work and what we have we have to work with them doing is who, who's lifestyle is glamorize, who often appear in the media, who show a show off their yards. their private jets back meant they ignored some of the richest people in asia. but in europe in the us, they found plenty of material to keep them busy. take romano brockovich, a russian oligarch, steel magnate and former football club owner. here's 162 meter long yard has 2 hello pads and kind of unnecessarily for the boat to swimming pools. powering this single ship with diesel mix up the bulk of his colossal carbon footprint. how about
4:16 am
microsoft founder bill gates? he's a billionaire who at least gets the problem avoiding a climate disaster. so we need green cement, green steel to bring the missions from all those areas down to 0. gates has written an entire book about avoiding climate disaster tend to is credit. she doesn't own a mega yet, but bill gates flew around the world through these private jets so often that in 2018 emissions with the same is 500 americans. it's not just celebrities where the problem, any quality is falling between countries, but growing within them. and in cities across the world, the whitening gap between the rich and the rest also applies to emissions. let's look at the top one percent of global earners. that somebody earning a yearly salary of about $109000.00. these people live in cities from miami to them
4:17 am
by and they're responsible for one 5th of the growth in carbon pollution in the last 30 years. the talk loud percent used basically, as she's about 50 percent. oh, you maggi naesha nazareth of scientists studying emissions. any quality says it's not just about black styles, things like these titles and private jackson, yards and stuff. so, but a big problem is really the way the political incentives to campaign donations and interest in general on the nice as of yet. there are 2 ways this takes place. the 1st is full scale lobbying, which people have poured money into preserving the status quote, which is working out pretty well for them. and society memorizes the ridge from just base those blasting into space to kim car dashing and holidays, were obsessed with their opulent live styles and often want them for ourselves. so how can we clean them up? the 1st answer is the most obvious. don't let the goober rich gets so rich in the
4:18 am
1st place. this video isn't about to descend into a rant about capitalism. but even hardcore idealogues admit the ultra rich, often avoid tax and explain the loopholes in the system to grow even richer, by raising taxes, closing legal loopholes and cranking down on tax havens policy makers could make it more costly for the wealthy to pollute. and in doing so, they'd raise money to invest in clean energy infrastructure. but bear in mind, it's not just the ultra ritual a mid way too much. the best example of this is flying. if you've stepped forward on a plane this year, you belong to the elite 2 to 4 percent of the population, go flies in a given year. and if you fly more than once a year, your carbon footprint is pretty much guaranteed to be incompatible with doing your fair share for a stable climate. one way to solve this is a carbon tax. raise the cost of flying to reflect the damage it does to the planet
4:19 am
. sound simple, but it also makes find this thing that's already only accessible to a small group of people even more really, you would have to setup blanket carbon tax extremely high to deter the frequent flyers and business travelers. that same added cost would be so much more by a middle class family. will see you specifically the one percent will always by the way, out of common texas just because of the care. this is jeff. i'm guessing a sustainability research here who says we should focus on the super frequent flyers. people who for instance, take more than 12 flights a year, even though they are just one percent of the population. this little group will account for more than half off all the vision emissions that a system that's causing me year. one way to address this is to increase the cost of
4:20 am
flying for every extra flag you take. this is known as a frequent flyer levy. it would cut demand for air travel without pushing the activity further into the hands of the very richest, an idea everyone could get behind. right. and we have, let's see, we see a surprising support off of the live size of the very well, but it would be a mistake to focus solely on what rich people buy. because people who are wealthy contribute the most to causing climate change. unfortunately, the also in the most ideal position to help us mitigate comments is christie and your son is the lead author of a study on what's the richest one percent can do to stop climate change in the paper which gets 5 different rules. the 1st one is what they do as a consumer. we brought in the tools to consider, what can i do as investors? because the more wealth and income you have, the more money you can invest into companies linked to fossil fuel or
4:21 am
a renewable energy production. because rich people have more influence within organizations, they can also lobby for change where they work. cleaning up the lifestyles of the rich is a clear cut wind for the climate. but for the most part, the rich aren't going to just de carbonized themselves. policies the to redistribute their wealth, need to gains a site, it'll acceptance. recognizing that the wealthy have more power to stop climate change is the 1st step to tackling their outsides. pollution dining to the fee that many invalid india are forced to live. let's head to the region of one day that i have actually been reporting extensively from for the last decade. this agricultural lines area has been pushed into fall would be new to a wide range of factors from a drought and floods to heat face which have left behind the baton fields. i'm dr. us which have pretty good heavy migration. i left many unemployed. we need
4:22 am
a young climate activist who is working with the local communities and you'll hear, she talks about how she is helping these villages. would that be any stronger? well they kind of what they call the con, used to be a beautiful place, but so many of us going to like be barking and pass on it into the these reversible meant to be me just give or take to the farmers here as they used to be the main source of irrigation before the fee is a way to diag. it's all the deal thing. you will be a little slow you. they will depend on ground or to from bull rid space, but there is no voltage in the ground anymore. and the rows have old dried out. i don't know much and i name is bush. i'd like what and i've been working with they do bundle cards since 2017. as of
4:23 am
a new doki all i'm from the body village and i'm 25 years old. we want me to put 2 side mega megabytes once i have so many childhood memories of this region covered with photos able half of the outside of denver. when was that? how did somebody say funny? the seasons would regular and easy to drugs and it would dream for 34 months, and then some of those were equally long. it can, but then these seasonal factors stopped it to change because of the me i was able to take away old how are these plus the big ones we would go we, it's abundance had to be started to face a severe shortage. very good. barely grow enough to feed us how to do you leave your name and they got the do. i know i may have had a very significant impact on i family. so i also took a personal interest in learning more about the environment. busy which is
4:24 am
one, be a fan of mine, told me about the reading networks you had heard. you're going to read you been the con, the god, 81. they kind of the some low job. because you do one step the behind to show a goal or should god it was one of the oldest for you to program. so i use dodge to as my back to home and started to walk and creating countries around climate change for this particular show. as it was one of the most popular programs in the local lot of it, that was something it the other german gallop in the home. we think the issue was experienced by farm was on the ground and made them part of the show. we also introduced folk music and brought local office in the last to do to sing about those issues related to climentree like water and forest conservation done of the year. if you have the equal to cease to light, peak one, when in going to be also introduced a unique segment in the show either it was a force if it's going to reality show. um it's designed exclusively for free. i
4:25 am
guess at the end of the show tied to the and he'll get back and take a look at the mountain. this sole goal was to be selected about 100 villages in this region and organize the competition for the best climate action solutions that families can present to somebody. i really just, some of them demonstrated their talents with rewrote to have a single creeds and encompass, and some, even both a kitchen garden taking guidance or not. the papers that they did the village, i would go to the fields to big interviews. mostly my men would come forward 90 to speak to me. you can the billing problem with, with not think it is to talk about. they weren't getting a lot of value to despite the fact that they will need please hot in the fees on my line. counting was like the time decided to change that on would actively see government farm was to share the experience of the when was it a thinking like a lie of the and they can be that agent of change that we need on the ground. yeah,
4:26 am
i wanted to know if they really talk about the impact could be to i'm sure that perspectives and understanding what about like make changes because we'll spend which about going as planned to say good. got it working on climate change histone from my life. i opened so many more opportunities for myself. i was selected by the united nations as one of the young climate leaders from india. it was a very big achievement. that's what i achieve and how many on the part of the it's the or open in the i'll be well, we'll have to come together for climate change. the problem is urgent. it's about buying the old book as a collective and saving whatever we can for our future generations. and those are the on the phone, doesn't matter who we are or wherever you always need a privilege check. sometimes it inspires us to share privileges with the booth and
4:27 am
some other times it will. she has us for flight, for our rights. what did today's episode inspiring? you know, let us know you can email us or reach out to me directly on my social media handle . i will see you next week until then take care goodbye moustache the the
