a global warming and climate change of political and ethical issues that issues of the rights of equality and of just hello and welcome. i'm sorry that got the body and you all watching he going there. what is accelerating human and deal with climate change? i'm making extreme that events more frequent unimed who is generating the slanted warming emissions. and who is the most one of these questions go on international climate negotiations, but are just as relevant hyper rule 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 impact on some our

lives in more than the other in the as a card most while literally country to the impacts of climate change by 2050, according to a recent report by climate. this export. what's in these in fax on, on the floor of easy 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 and 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. it's fortunate leave the conservation this rod a some. bish noise was close at hand. the, the domain is a, it is shown a lot of improvements over the last 2 months and now it can fly port, but we're waiting for other migrate. she pads to arrive and when to release this

one with all the others when he gets out of the school, need to go to they are closely related species to the queens busted is also native to this region known as the great indian busted or g. i b a 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 web of power lines comes from india is push for its renewable energy climate goals . the grid solar panels on wind turbines need large trucks of open land. but with lots of wind and many years around sunshine, this part of bunch time has been chosen to become the center of india is clean energy future. the plants proponents like easiest thing. i hope it will be a game changer for the economy. this something new will energy sector if it will buy a new report. this sick dodie is going to collect investment off premiums

in the country. so for the investment comes that employees. when it goes, everyone is going to be positively impacted. but what's more important? green energy or wildlife conservation. this question ended up in india, is copeland's in 2021. the court ruled that all new electrical power lines be laid underground. heavy costs that could make whole future renewable energy projects on viable. that's tedious, social and environmental concerns, which as, as auto renewable energy use, this, this blind approach 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 the buy net perspective from the every funding perspective from the, from the perspective of costly and species when this should not be

a ground on which these ideas i opened up. however, 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 earlier ruling to allow overhead power lines for renewable energy projects. we have to move to the green energy, which is solar and wind and all of this. and therefore, we cannot have such a large area for conservation of the d. no d, i b is protected not only under the y lift protection act, it is also on the, the convention and migratory species as well as conventional biology because there was no one can point out with the ad. not talking about are not concerned about the will being lost in the space space of the nature file from the courthouse debates. shepherds like kitchen saying must find ways to

e count and living on rapidly shrinking gross lands the conquered. i'm not, i used to be able to let my sheep graze anyway a bit, but now the solar power plants have been installed. ever since it's everywhere we see setup, so we can no longer find land category is on a ship it by a small grassland is diverted for renewable energy production. the condition of the remaining open step is worsening to impart to rise in global temperatures that are in the deal that does it region, has k a cadre on double crosses, which also have some additional properties. now the still exist in most of these girls lot as a what the research shows, i think i find a net present every way good job at the another prevailing species is to say when ross is which is particularly suited from to the does it have

a top top particularly, and it's not found anywhere else in the country or this is i didn't even like. i basically did is a finding the most in this region. one of the argument upcoming i india is power 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, the citizens must be vigilant to ward off any unintended consequences. differential ecosystems, the beginning david will happen 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 need to guess because ultimately climate change is about sort of i, even of human and non human speeches, successfully financing,

species, conservation, and renewable energy is challenging but also key to ensure the future as all eco 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 bus, the consequences. they are very hud, but sometimes support comes from an unexpected direction. this is the story of a fisherman in southern india. found them a 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 a smartphone with him on the boat. he's been using it to know don't everything you observes out here for 6 years. now. the officials habit that has been steadily declining and he knows from environmental is the climate change is the likely cause? god of barbara caught 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, which is called all the data in victor labels so that none of these observe ations can go missing bottom of the night or as an artist. she tries to make scientific topics accessible to her work,

including climate change. she meant to follow him during her research. 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. if is, you know, literally the ocean being given a voice through the bus and a fall and whatnot. she feels fall in story in the field, that features been heard exhibits in the living ocean. who does not have the auto mall. i'm. i threw this through. we explained to people that the climate is changing. we tell them about how people of the boss used to live, how times have changed, how the climate has changed. we explain all of this. they do this in the bottom of the oddest dixon and go to just 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 doesn't instruct it proposes and then the viewer can take away. and the idea on a piece of information and hopefully act on it to make a bit of a just 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 affect sea creatures along side bar with the other artists have also dedicated their works to the various subsets of climate change to was called v and oceans forest, which are by the hash tag, click to and as you move around the what's the works themselves change, so on the one side, you see what a healthy man room looks like, what a healthy color a bed looks like. but as you move around that you see what happens when they get

degraded. so in this way, we're also trying to show the impact. it's, it's a visceral moment when you see what can happen. bottom has also taken on his very 1st torkel spot for the project. an installation with fishing nets, the, the gotta be mostly by these nets for long. i mean, this piece for the duction not to throw museum because of the bar, but the this is the 1st time i have done anything like this, but don't, don't read, you will even on the 1st attempt. she's pleased, and i'm happy with it doing. now like you're going to the, i wanted to follow the fisherman and far with the, the artist people from very different walks of life. but united in the shed, a desire to make a difference and draw attention to climate change. and what it means for us humans . now when you get the opposite or watch the scene in this episode

so far, those who generate 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 each, 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 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. being sparrows worked out 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 is 162 meter long. john has 2 hello pads and kind

of unnecessarily for the boat to swimming pools. powering this single ship with the diesel makes up the bulk of his colossal carbon footprint. and how about microsoft founder bill gates? he's a billionaire who at least gets the problem. avoiding a climate this aspect, 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 his credit. he doesn't own and mega yacht, 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 move

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, to maggie alicia nazareth of scientists studying emissions. any quality says it's not just about black styles, things like these types of and private, jackson, yards and stuff. but a big problem is really the way the political incentives to campaign donations an interest in general on the nice as of yet. there are 2 ways this takes place. the 1st is full scale lobbying, rich people of course 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. we're 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 1st place. this video isn't about to descend into a ranch 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 . 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 relative specifically the one percent will always by the way, out of common texas, just because it can. 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 have just one percent of the worst population. this, the crew will come for more than half off all the vision emissions that uh,

the system that's causing me year. one way to address this is to increase the cost of 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 life size of the very well, but it wouldn't be a mistake to focus solely on what rich people buy. because people who are wealthy contribute the most causing climate change. unfortunately, the also in the most ideal precision to help us mitigate kind of change because the on your son is a 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 roles. 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 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 that 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 does he ality that many in go to india are forced to live? let's head to the region of when they come, that's i have actually been reporting extensively from for the last decade. this agricultural lines area has been pushed into quality, 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 a young climate that service 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 beat fucking and pass on it into the these are, those were meant to be me just different k to the farmers here as they used to be the main source of irrigation before the fee is a way to take it out until one that they will see you will be able for 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 dry died out. i don't know much and i name is bush,

i'd like one and i've been working with the radio bundle kind of since 2017. as a radio doki. all i'm from the body village and i'm 25 years old. we want me to put 2 side mega made a bunch. once i have so many childhood memories of this region covered with photos, it will help 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 the seasonal thought to stop it to change because of the woman welcome me . i was able to take away old ladies plus the big ones we would go, we in abundance had to be started to face a severe shortage. very good, a barely dro enough to feed us how to do you need the name and they got the do. i mean i move change has had a very significant impact on i family. so i also took

a personal interest in learning more about the environment. which is one, be a fan of mine, told me about a rate networks you can afford you god read you been the con, the god, $81.00 day kind of the some low job the thing you do one step to the how 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 galler been at home a big 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 this thing about those issues related to climentree like water and forest conservation done on the you. if you, i'm the equal to see is to light peak on when in go feels introduce a unique segment in the show either it was

a force of its kind reality show um is designed exclusively for free. i guess at the end of the show tied to the new can like i'm thinking that the noun, this phone calls to be selected about 100 villages in this region and organize the competition for the best line with extra solutions that farmers can present from villages some of them demonstrated their talents with rainbow to have a single creating, compos and some even both a kitchen garden picking the items are not the papers out the, the, the vailable i would go to the fields to big interviews. mostly my men would come forward and be to speak to me in the villain. farm was would not think it is to talk about the work that they had bought. and despite the fact that they will equally hot and the fees on my line, danny was a big time decided to change that and would actively seek out women farm was to share the experience of the when was it

a big in my life? and they can be thought agent of change that we need on the ground. yeah, i wanted to know if they really talk about the city and talk a b 2 and said that perspectives and understanding what about the climate change? because what's then, what about going as planned to say good? got it. working on climate change is transforms 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 our 2 friends. how many on the part of the it's the open in the old one have to come together for climate change. the problem is urgent. it's about buying the old book as a collective and saving whatever begun for our future generations. and those of us on the phone doesn't matter who we are. all we have, you always need

a privilege check. sometimes it inspires us to share privileges with the booth and some other times it will. she has us for flight for it. all right. 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. the moustache, the . this unique document decisive solar eclipses

the venus cycles calculated precisely without the use of it. so that is the present from it today. tomorrow to day. next on d w. reps from the right. young germans with immigrant background react to the country's political climate. they live in germany and tassel on the search and right when popular riot aisd low stuff into o is on d w the

we did the urgent life saving boxes week. if i ever seem to reach those who need us the most, every folks feeding their futures boxes for the hope of life saving we fearlessly tentative, not just next day that every day. thousands of children are still waiting for that in the sponsor of books today. so together we can deliver futures, the togetherness at the place, even just came off of the to julie zullie,

the inventory, and click the the ancient pyramids at the maya. what time piece is made of stone and the massive temples except the movements of the sun forming a precise side of the calendar. this method of american civilization was very advanced in a strong me. how did the maya know so much? to me coming up from the dw science shape. welcome to you tomorrow. today since time immemorial the night sky has fascinated humanity. even today we still look up whats in our quest to understand the origin or future of our world.
