    why is it so important to stay below 1.5
  • 00:00:02
    degrees because even a one degree people
  • 00:00:07
    are dying from the climate crisis
  • 00:00:10
    because that's what the united science
  • 00:00:13
    calls for to avoid destabilizing the
  • 00:00:16
    climates so that we have the best
  • 00:00:18
    possible chance to avoid setting of
  • 00:00:20
    irreversible chain reactions such as
  • 00:00:23
    melting glaciers polarize and throwing
  • 00:00:26
    bockting permafrost every fraction of a
  • 00:00:30
    degree matters so there it is again this
  • 00:00:36
    is my message this is what I want you to
  • 00:00:39
    focus on so please tell me how do you
  • 00:00:45
    react to these numbers without feeling
  • 00:00:49
    at least some level of panic how do you
  • 00:00:53
    respond to the facts that basically
  • 00:00:56
    nothing is being done about this without
  • 00:00:58
    feeling the slightest bits of anger and
  • 00:01:02
    how do you communicate this without
  • 00:01:05
    sounding alarmist
  • 00:01:06
    I would really like to know since the
  • 00:01:11
    Paris agreement global banks have
  • 00:01:14
    invested one point nine trillion u.s.
  • 00:01:18
    dollars in fossil fuels
  • 00:01:21
    100 companies are responsible for 71
  • 00:01:25
    percent of global emissions the g20
  • 00:01:30
    countries account for almost 80 percent
  • 00:01:33
    of total emissions the richest 10% of
  • 00:01:39
    the world's population to produce half
  • 00:01:42
    of our co2 emissions while the poorest
  • 00:01:45
    50 percent account for just 1/10 we
  • 00:01:51
    indeed have some work to do but some of
  • 00:01:54
    more than others recently a handful of
  • 00:01:59
    rich countries pledged to reduce their
  • 00:02:02
    emissions of greenhouse gases by so on
  • 00:02:05
    so many percent by this or that date or
  • 00:02:08
    to become climate neutral or Net Zero
  • 00:02:12
    and so on so many years this may sound
  • 00:02:17
    impressive at first glance but even
  • 00:02:19
    though the intentions may be good this
  • 00:02:22
    is not leadership this is not leading
  • 00:02:25
    this is misleading because most of these
  • 00:02:29
    pledges do not include aviation shipping
  • 00:02:32
    and imported and exported goods in
  • 00:02:35
    consumption they do however include the
  • 00:02:39
    possibility of countries to offset their
  • 00:02:42
    emissions elsewhere these pledges don't
  • 00:02:47
    include the immediate yearly reduction
  • 00:02:49
    rates needed for wealthy countries which
  • 00:02:52
    is necessary to stay within the
  • 00:02:55
    remaining tiny budget zero in 2050 means
  • 00:03:00
    nothing if high emission continues even
  • 00:03:03
    for a few years then the remaining
  • 00:03:05
    budget will be gone without seeing the
  • 00:03:09
    full picture we will not solve this
  • 00:03:12
    crisis finding holistic solutions is
  • 00:03:16
    what the cop should be all about but
  • 00:03:20
    instead it seems to have turned into
  • 00:03:23
    some kind of opportunity for countries
  • 00:03:25
    to negotiate loopholes and to avoid
  • 00:03:29
    raising their ambition
  • 00:03:40
    countries are finding clever ways around
  • 00:03:43
    having to take real action like double
  • 00:03:47
    counting emissions reductions and moving
  • 00:03:50
    their emissions overseas and working
  • 00:03:53
    back on their promises to increase
  • 00:03:55
    ambition refusing to pay for solutions
  • 00:03:58
    or loss and damage this has to stop
  • 00:04:02
    what we need is real drastic emission
  • 00:04:06
    cuts at the source but of course just
  • 00:04:10
    reducing emissions is not enough our
  • 00:04:14
    greenhouse gas emissions has to stop to
  • 00:04:19
    stay below 1.5 degrees we need to keep
  • 00:04:22
    the carbon in the ground only setting up
  • 00:04:27
    distant dates and saying things which
  • 00:04:29
    give the impression of that action is
  • 00:04:32
    underway will most likely do more harm
  • 00:04:34
    than good
  • 00:04:35
    because the changes required are still
  • 00:04:38
    nowhere in sight
  • 00:04:40
    the politics needed that does not exist
  • 00:04:43
    today despite what you might hear from
  • 00:04:46
    world leaders and I still believe that
  • 00:04:50
    the biggest danger is not inaction the
  • 00:04:53
    real danger is when politicians and CEOs
  • 00:04:57
    are making it look like real action is
  • 00:04:59
    happening when in fact almost nothing is
  • 00:05:02
    being done
  • 00:05:03
    apart from clever accounting and
  • 00:05:05
    creative PR
  • 00:05:14
    I have been fortunate enough to be able
  • 00:05:20
    to travel around the world and my
  • 00:05:24
    experience is that the lack of awareness
  • 00:05:27
    is the same everywhere not the least
  • 00:05:31
    amongst those elected to lead us there
  • 00:05:35
    is no sense of urgency whatsoever our
  • 00:05:39
    leaders are not behaving as if we were
  • 00:05:42
    in an emergency in an emergency you
  • 00:05:45
    change your behavior if there's a child
  • 00:05:49
    standing in the middle of the road and
  • 00:05:51
    cars are coming at full speed
  • 00:05:53
    you don't look away because it's too
  • 00:05:55
    uncomfortable you immediately run out
  • 00:05:58
    and rescue that child and without that
  • 00:06:02
    sense of urgency how can we the people
  • 00:06:06
    understand that we are facing a real
  • 00:06:09
    crisis and if the people are not fully
  • 00:06:12
    aware of what is going on then they will
  • 00:06:15
    not put pressure on the people in power
  • 00:06:17
    to do to act and without pressure from
  • 00:06:23
    the people our leaders can get away with
  • 00:06:26
    basically not doing anything well which
  • 00:06:29
    is where we are now and around and
  • 00:06:32
    around it goes in just three weeks we
  • 00:06:38
    will enter a new decade a decade they
  • 00:06:43
    will define our future right now we are
  • 00:06:48
    desperate for any sign of hope well I'm
  • 00:06:52
    telling you there is hope I have seen it
  • 00:06:56
    but it does not come from the
  • 00:06:58
    governments or corporations it comes
  • 00:07:02
    from the people the people who have been
  • 00:07:05
    unaware but are now starting to wake up
  • 00:07:07
    and once we become aware we change
  • 00:07:12
    people can change people are ready for
  • 00:07:16
    change and that is the hope because we
  • 00:07:18
    have democracy and democracy is happen
  • 00:07:23
    all the time not just on Election Day
  • 00:07:26
    but every second and every hour it is
  • 00:07:31
    public opinion that runs the free world
  • 00:07:34
    in fact every great change throughout
  • 00:07:38
    history has come from the people we do
  • 00:07:44
    not have to wait we can start the change
  • 00:07:48
    right now we the people thank
  • 00:07:54
    [Applause]
