organizations like the red cross and greenpeace would be lost without it. volunteers are also indispensible when it comes to rebuilding regions in the wake of natural disasters. a year ago, hurricane maria devastated the small island of dominica. volunteers from around the world are helping heal the wounds. reporter: it's said that if christopher columbus were to return to the caribbean, the one island he'd still recognize would be dominica. its unspoiled landscape, thanks to an environmentally friendly approach to tourism, has given dominica the name the nature island. a peaceful place, then? not for these women. their day begins at 5:30 in the morning. maddie: i slept really good. reporter: maddie simmonds, a student from britain, is spending her vacation with a group of international volunteers. maddie: it can sometimes be quite busy. there's one little stove, so everyone is trying to make their eggs and stuff. it's often quite busy. reporter: a little over an hour later. taylor from the u.s. is considered the group's late riser. >> your shoes are wet? m

and what can be done to tackle it to speak to naomi ages she's a senior climate campaigner with greenpeace in the u.s. and joins us live from washington d.c. thanks everybody for being with us so they talk about urgent and unprecedented changes needed to reach the target what would you say the key ones and how quickly can those be implemented hi lauren thanks very much for having me here today and we're glad that you're focusing on this report because really urgent climate action is the single most important thing we can be focusing on right now it's a matter of life and death and so the report contains any number of pathways that we really need to hit all of them to to address the warming that's coming to keep warming to one point five degrees because there is no safe level of warming and the people that are going to be most impact are those that are least able to handle those impacts they are some of the most underdeveloped countries and some of the poorest countries and so the best thing that we can do is transition immediately immediately away from fossil fuels and who are noble energy

greenpeace just today has released a report saying that south africa has the most polluting of coal fired whole world. they found the world's most polluted blackspot in terms of nitrogen dioxide, one of the key greenhouse gases, to be in your country. you have to transition away from coal. how are you going to do it? we are transitioning. this is why, right now as i speak to you, in the last four years, we've connected over 3700 megawatts of clean energy from solar, from wind, from biomass. as i understand it, correct me, correct me ifiam understand it, correct me, correct me if i am wrong, you are the energy minister, right now, renewables represent less than 4% of your energy mix. they are, but we are growing that. 496. yes! the reality. your own calculations and projections show that the amount of c02 projections show that the amount of co2 emitted by your economy because of this massive reliance on coal, the amount of co2 emissions is going to go up between 2020 and 2025, despite all of the promises your government made along with all other government made along with all other governm

now is a senior climate camp a new with greenpeace in the u.s. she says political leaders have to take climate change seriously. i think people of the world didn't need this report to tell them that we need to make this happen there's already people experiencing devastating effects from climate change and those effects are going to get worse not just in places like in puerto rico in bangladesh even in texas with hurricanes that we've seen it's really going to hit everyone everywhere and so. the political will must follow and it's really unconscionable unconscionable now for political leaders to not have serious plans for addressing climate change and it's unconscionable for them to not take action to protect the poorest and most vulnerable this report doesn't tell people anything they didn't need to know but it does tell us that we need to demand it from governments and corporations that we need rapid climate action. there are less than three weeks to go until brazil's presidential runoff and if the results of sunday's first rounder anything to g
