Climate Lens (Narration) 🎙

Second intro:
Nothing seems to cut through, not the science, the media, a friend, colleague or a family member telling you about the ‘Climate and Nature Emergency’, but when it does, when it does cut through and you finally face the full truth (as you connect with it emotionally), you may see things differently…

⏰ 6:00am – WAKE UP 📢
I wake up and for a minute or two, I forget about the situation we face. I roll over to see our 4 year old has joined us in the night. I smile as I look at him sleeping, then it hits me like a sledgehammer, the threat is real. I must do all I can to protect my children from harm, immediate harm like jumping in front of a car to save their life or from harm yet to come by resisting our governments genocidal plans to open up new fossil fuels in the uk.

⏰ 6:30am – WATER SHORTAGE 💧
I Jump in the shower, I feel too guilty to have a baths anymore. By 2025, two-thirds of the world’s population may be facing water shortages. When the water runs dry & people can’t get enough to drink, wash, or feed crops it’s inevitable it will be rationed in the future.

⏰ 7:00am – SUPER RICH 🏰
Get to work and hear the news story that Jeff Bazos is getting married, his fiancé is spotted on their (super) yacht wearing the ring as the radio presenter casually says ‘how the other half live’ when in actual fact it’s only the super rich that live like this – the top 1% of the world’s population are responsible for more than twice as much carbon emissions as the poorest half of humanity.

⏰ 7:30am – BEAUTIFUL WORLD 🌎
Every morning my windows login screen tries to remind me of how amazingly wonderful and breath-taking our planet is, whilst also showing me what we are destroying, what we are about to lose forever.

⏰ 8:00am – SWITCH ENGINE OFF 🚚
A lorry’s been outside for half an hour with its engine on. I want to approach the driver but haven’t got the courage to ask them to switch it off. How do you even do that without getting abuse.

⏰ 8:30am – FINITE RESOURCES 📱
A colleague is discussing upgrading their phone & I reflect on our capitalist culture, always upgrading, always buy new.. more more….

#ClimateLensFilm

I feel like I’m in the film don’t look up  seeing very clearly the Urgent warnings   from scientists as I watch people just carry  on as normal I’m walking among zombies that   can’t hear my screams no matter what I say or  do this film is another attempt to show you  

What I see to show you what I know and cannot  unknow on the 24th of May 2023 I recorded all   my climate aware thoughts that day thoughts I  just wouldn’t have had if I didn’t know what I  

Know I believe this to be a typical day for a  climate aware person willing to face the full [Music] truth nothing seems to cut through not  the science the media a friend colleague or   family member telling you about the climate in  nature emergency but when it does when it does  

Cut through and you finally face the full truth  you may see things differently I wake up and for   a minute or two I forget about the situation  we face I roll over to see how four-year-old  

Has joined us in the night I Smile as I look at  him sleeping then it hits me like a sledgehammer   the threat is real I must do all I can to protect  my children from harm immediate harm like jumping  

In front of a car to save their life or from  harm yet to come by resisting our government’s   genocidal plans to open up new fossil fuels in  the UK I jump in the shower I feel too guilty  

To have baths anymore by 2025 2/3 of the world’s  population will be facing water shortages when   the Water Runs Dry and people can’t get enough  to drink wash or feed crops it’s inevitable it   will be rationed in the future you know for  years and generations Wars have been fought  

Over oil in a short matter of time they will be  fought over water get to work and hear the news   story that Jeff Bezos is getting married his  fiance is spotted on their yacht wearing the   ring as the radio presenter casually says how  the other half live when in actual fact it’s  

Only the super rich that live like this the top  1% of the world’s pop population responsible for   more than twice as much carbon emissions as  the poorest half of humanity every morning   my Windows login screen tries to remind me  of how amazingly wonderful and breathtaking  

Our planet is whilst also showing me what we are  destroying and what we are about to lose forever   a Lor’s been outside for half an hour with its  engine on I want to approach the driver but I  

Haven’t got the courage to ask them to switch  it off how do you even do that without getting   abuse a colleague is discussing upgrading their  phone and I reflect on our capitalist culture   always upgrading always buying new more more  more with no concept of our planet’s dwindling  

Resources and not to mention how things are  made where they are made and who suffers in the process there’s an article on social media  about our food prices this April reaching a   45e high war and extreme weather events  are responsible both due to increase as  

A result of our warming [Music] Planet  I’m crying as I walk past the nursery   as I hear children playing outside they’re so  innocent and have no idea of what a challenging   difficult and possibly short life lies ahead  for them shame on us for turning our backs  

On innocent todders of babies alive today I  struggle just seeing babies in a prom these days [Music] I feel like Sarah every [ __ ] [Music] day I always tried to print  double-sided where possible   as I pack myself on the back for saving  the Amazon maybe a better use of my time  

Will be to take direct action against  companies directly responsible for [Music] deforestation in the office we listen  to popmas with Ken Bruce on greatest tips   radio and we’re constantly reminded of their  sponsorship deal with BP as their BP reward  

Jingle players are over and over throughout the  day it’s disgusting and it reminds me of when   all tobacco adverts were banned due to their  damaging impacts hello what cigarette do you smoke BP aim to make every Journey a little  bit better and what could be better than BP  

Me rewards where members earn points on every  visit when they fill up and shop at BP points   that you can put towards fuel food and pl plenty  more bp here for all of life’s Journeys in 2019 BP   spent more money lobbing against climate action  than any other publicly owned company on Earth

Hello there’s a story shared on Facebook titled  Global heating will push billions outside human   climate Nation somebody do something and  the general Public’s response during a   climate emergency we don’t want to give  you that actually let’s watch this instead this is fine I’m okay with the events that  

Are unfolding [Music] currently  that’s okay things are going to be okay preparing food at lunchtime and being  conscious of food waste as I think about   all those suffering with lack of food around  the world including in this country I start  

Thinking about the inequality balance and how  we are not not all in the same boat I then look   down at my food Choice a cheese sandwich but  further dread and sadness seeps in as I think   about how we claim to be a nation of animal  lovers while still eating meat and dairy the  

Phrase we’re not in the same boat applies here  it melt brilliant the cognitive dissonance is rif our forlift trucks run on gas the first  forlift trucks I ever saw were electric ones   it got me thinking about gas as a fuel and I  remembered our plan to replace our gas hob at  

Home with a fully electric one to reduce our  emission Zs it all cost money initially to do   the right thing for instance we can’t afford  an electric car solar panels or to properly   insulate our home not yet anyway even catching  the train to work every day works out slightly  

More expensive than driving our family petrol car  well I did get rid of my car a few years ago we   were all trapped in this system of limited and  forced choices we as consumers are not free to   choose between fossil fuels and a cleaner  alternative because fossil fuel companies  

Have rigged the system I reduced my emissions and  cost by cycling to work most days on a very busy   and dangerous road the lents we go to to make  the right choices can often be more expensive   and far less convenient we need cheaper and  more convenient public transport [Music]

ASAP do you ever feel like the only Eco  elot in the village we taking AC say no no no casually reading the future of the human  climate Niche on my break as if I was reading   a fantasy novel except this is a peer- review  paper written by scientists a very real warning  

About the current path we’re on it states that  by 2070 3.5 billion people will be exposed to   a mean annual temperature of 29° a situation  currently only found in not. 8% of the global   land surface mostly concentrated in the Sahara  where conditions are unlivable for humankind  

But by 2070 it’s projected to cover 19% of our  Global land surface our Suns will only be 52   and 56 if they reach that age at all the current  mean annual temperature for thriving populations   is between 11 and 15° C this rise will force Mass  migration starvation conflict and death and yet we  

Hear politicians talking about the continued use  of fossil fuels in Rich nations in Rich Nations   more licenses for the North Sea you cannot be  serious knowing my friends and family will be   concerned at my exposure to climate related news  and what’s termed as Doom scrolling as they tell  

Me to take a break and stop thinking about it I  can’t help it as I view life through a climate   lens now it’s tinest forever and there’s no  going back a bit like the climate really we   really are on the edge and at the point of no  return [Music] I noticed someone highlighting  

The fact that the metro newspaper has only given  up a tiny thumbnail section and a number of pages   back in its hard copy to report on the story  that the world will warm above 1.5° C between   now and 2027 1.5 being the so-called safe limit  set by the Paris agreement this actually happened  

At the beginning of June when we say the media  isn’t doing its job to alert the British public   to the dangers coming our way this is what we  mean the mainstream media in the UK is owned by   right-wing billionaires whose vested interests  lie in the fossil fuel industry and continued  

Business as usual at all costs even if those  costs are life itself I’ve seen lots of just   up oil footage today from our local Northern team  slow marching down in London I just wish there was  

A better way a better way to protest a better  way to convince our government to keep us safe   or better still that we didn’t have to do this  because our government was already protecting us   by stopping all new oil gas and coal exploration  this includes stopping fossil fuel subsidies to  

The tune of 12 billion a year that’s our taxes  paying for that that could be spent on clean   green Energy Solutions I don’t know about you but  I’m a bit uncomfortable about funding the future   death of my own children which is why I stand  with and support just up oil their demand no  

New fossil fuels that’s not come from just up oil  this comes from the consensus on the science the   International Energy agency the United Nations  the World Health organization the government’s   own climate committee the intergovernmental  panel on climate change and all UK political  

Parties apart from the Tories remember this is  not a passion of mine this is not a cause this   is the fight for all life on Earth if you’re not  fighting then you’re letting it happen on your

Watch at break time in the afternoon I usually  go for an nature walk I enjoy listening to the   birds singing and sporting squirrels as I brush  past trees covered in in Ivy while taking deep   breaths as I feel instantly calmer today however  I’m thinking about last year’s 40° Heatwave as I  

Consider cycling home later I recall that it was  simply just too hot to cycle or catch a train as   the tracks were melting along with airport runways  too as planes struggled to land I remember having  

To catch a taxi home to avoid being stranded at  work but I survived that day while a large number   of people in the UK lost their lives due to heat  related deaths over that two-day [Music] period  

I see comeone leave the light on as they leave  the toilets on one hand I feel compelled to tell   everyone how important it is to turn lights and  appliances off when they’re not needed but on   the other hand it’s a bit like campaigning  against plastic straws whilst ignoring the  

Fact that 50% of all ocean plastic is made up of  discarded fishing nets from the fishing industry   to turn the light out can’t you just dim it a  bit Yeah okay it’s good do it but also don’t   ignore the bigger picture the huge industry  is destroying everything potentially forever  

As we reach tipping points across many conver in  crises how’s that yeah that’ll do right let battle [Music] commence I walk on to the factory  floor to hear the song If you tolerate this   your children will be nexted by the Manic  Street Preachers it makes me think of the  

Fascist anti-protest and human rights laws being  passed by a Draconian governments the new public   order act for example bans all effective protests  that may cause even mild disruption with arrests   more like L you could face unlimited fines and  up to 10 years in prison for serious annoyance  

And inconvenience that’s longer than some rape  or Grievous bodily harm cases this is how much   the government wants to squash descent and  keep you in check the United Nations High   Commissioner for human rights vulka Turk said  the legislation was deeply troubling and that it  

Imposed restrictions on freedom of expression and  peaceful assembly that are neither necessary nor proportionate I Reed an email at work inviting me  to represent my compan at another climate action   business now Forum a local initiative run by  my Council inviting local businesses to come  

Together to share best practices and help them  move towards achieving Net Zero I spoke a few   months ago as I highlighted the seriousness of  our time by lying on the floor in silence for   one minute before I began my presentation I stand  here today as a climate activist a sustainability  

Champion for my company and as a father my parents  talking about eating snails as she’s traveling to   France next week on the holiday and I think as  food runs out we’ll be forced to find anything  

We can to eat to survive and I guess this means  snails insects and wild plants I’ve heard already   that people suffering food shortages due to the  climate impacts or even eating mud to desperately   stay alive this mother talks of losing one of her  children after 3 days without food in Madagascar  

5 years of the worst drought in decades and  deforestation have transform Southern Madagascar   into dust just look at the imbalance here one mom  talks of jet off to Paris for a lavish holiday and   another mon talks of losing a child after failing  to find food for her family meditation time banana  

St I clear my mind allowing me to focus on my  family and my two boys who’s picking them up from   school what’s fatig is it bath night and how to  stay calm under parenting presses what’s wondering  

If we have time to unwind and relax maybe watch  a film tonight the entire planet is about to be   destroyed do I have a zoom to attend I’m not a  now here I’m picking my son’s prescription up   from the chemist but thinking it’s inevitable  that when supplies begin to run low from the  

Medical manufacturers as they collapse this quiet  Friendly Pharmacy will be smashed up and looted   and all chances of me obtaining vital medication  will be gone putting our fam’s lives at risk yet   again after picking our four-year-old up as we got  out of the car we walked past a flouring b Bush  

And we stop and listen to the world the tweets  of the birds the wind in the trees and the bees   buzzing around the bush collecting nectar we sit  down and watch the bees at work in my head I’m  

Thinking about the activist bees out on the roads  today with just a while I explain how important   bees are and how all nature is precious and  interconnected we pick a huge dandelion from the   garden to show Mummy he is mesmerized by Nature as  I am it’s utterly [Music] incredible the following  

Section has been amended due to my fear of legal  repercussions in naming the companies involved   and revealing the documents I have received from  them all have now been redacted I’m reading email   threats from a legal firm on behalf of one of the  biggest fossil fuel companies in the world as they  

Threaten me and stipulate I must sign what’s  known as an undertaking this is a promise I   will not disrupt their business again breaking  this forced agreement could land me in prison   or I could face costly fines but by not signing  it I’m told that they could come after my assets  

And family home to recover court costs for setting  up the injunction anyway one of the most powerful   companies in the world squashing me like a bug  the UK government is actively encouraging private   firms and now sports events organizers to take  out private injunctions against anyone trying to  

Sound the alarm by disrupting business as usual  it’s been just over 4 years since I went to my   first Extinction Rebellion talk this talk changed  everything for me after a series of anti-plastic   campaigns and raising awareness about single use  items and waste-free lifestyle choices I turned my  

Attention to the biggest issue there has ever been  climate change global warming climate breakdown   it moved from an issue in the background of  my mind to something that will affect every   single aspect of my life and everyone else is  on Earth here’s what I’ve changed in my life  

Since then in no particular order sold my car  bought an ebike wooden toothbrush plastic free   soap bars reusable drinking bottles plastic free  bags became vegan sto flying sto using standby   on my [ __ ] big television chose fixed interest  mortgage repayments from a company not investing  

In fossil fuels wrote to MPS joined XR joined  just stop oil marched protested locked on glued   on being arrested set up meetings told stories Bea  to 10 zillion zooms stop baths growing my own food   ditch plastic straws been to court sign petitions  Lobby councils campaigned for green spaces to be  

Saved from development dressed as a Bee dressed as  Captain Rebellion been to London trained in Caron   literacy researched the science every day designed  climate awareness banners and posters hell stalls   slow marched cry comforted inspired and recruited  switch Banks switch energy supplier switch  

Pensions switch gas hob to Electric attempted to  buy an electric car use public public transport   shared news science the Urgent warnings across  social media fly posted Shad through a megaphone   at the top of my voice curry sauce I decided  to learn how to make my own curry sauce to save  

Money but also to save on plastic tray was every  order from our local Chinese Takeaway comes in   plastic trays I sure they used to use foil trays  that were fully recyclable anyway I nailed it yum I noticed our old red bucket outside  lost all its color but where did it go the  

Chemical coloring must have washed off  into our garden over time I’m thinking   about this as I wash jars of old pesto  out watching the remaining contents go   down the drain and eventually into the sea  and our atmosphere the same can be said for  

Microplastics from washing machines all over  the world we’re poisoning our home with every   action we take and it seems there’s only a  handful of us that actually care to think   about this let alone do something about  it well some of the crowd are on the pitch

Well some of the crowd are on the pitch they  think it’s all over well it is now Gary Leno   speaks out about climate [Music] protests I think  it’s very worrying that you know we we lock people  

Up that are actually trying to make sure that we  have some kind of future um I understand why I   understand why people can get upset because it’s  it’s disruptive demonstration um but history kind   of tells you the only demonstrations that really  work are destructive ones but over Reliance on  

Fossil fuels we we’ve got to find a way out of  that because you know we’re going to destroy the   future for our children and their children and and  and to be honest that’s the should be the biggest  

Issue of the day and we should all be trying to  turn governments on it not just relying on a few   people that actually they do stuff n that they’ll  probably be locked up and and I kind of admire  

That in a way and I know it a I know it angers  a lot of people um but that’s kind of what they   want because it’s the only way it gets publicized  and it’s the only reason we’re talking about it

[Music] now it should be don’t get caught make  your owness tonight we’re watching the Swarm a   Sci-Fi series about humans disrupting the ocean  and nature fighting back there are many parallels   with reality and the damage we are doing to  the ocean and all life it holds if the ocean  

Dies we die you should put out a warning against  drinking washing having any contact whatsoever   with any water which is not boiled or bottled and  all fishing off the Atlantic coast should also be   suspended do you understand what you are asking  for that disruption to the region such measure  

Will because the economic impact if this train  of VI bicus continues to contaminate water system   the economic impact will be far more severe you do  not know for certain that the situation will worse   you are merely speculating that it could worse  right in all the years I’ve been investigating  

Pathogens this is the most deadly ever discovered  and if we have learned anything in recent years   is that the consequences of not acting quickly  decisively can be fatal and I would not want to   be the person elected or appointed who didn’t  listen to The Experts this time [Music] around  

I bought this years ago used it once and now it  just sits there the amount of items we own and   don’t need is staggering but finding the time  to sell or get rid of it or responsibly is a  

Massive challenge we all have so much Pointless  Stuff we think we might use in the future and yet   don’t have time to sell it and can’t be forced  to just bin things knowing they could have been   reused by someone else it means we’re trapped in  a stalemate situation and we’ve become hoarders by

Default Sam Smith’s concert is canceled as  lights go out and people lose their [ __ ]   this is the big news of the day apparently  people hate their lives being disrupted   don’t they when the penny drops that absolutely  everything in their lives is set to be disrupted  

They’re really going to lose it hopefully with  the people causing the crisis Point your anger   and frustration your effort and determination  for a future at them not the people trying to   protect our world by sounding the [Music] alarm  but I feel like a storm is coming if I’m going  

To make it through the [Music] there’s  this is something I [Music] got if I it all could you break my fall how do I  how do I Brea here I’m suffocated I   to BL me this where I give it  all for you I have to risk it all cuz the right the [Music]

World seeing Peter cmus a NASA scientist share  a Facebook post from a year ago where he took   nonviolent direct action and stepped into civil  resistance against the system that is killing   us scientists all over the world are scared  and are screaming from the rooftops to warn  

Us we must change course basically if we don’t  we’re facing extinction along with millions of   other species we share this amazing planet  [Music] with I’m willing to take a risk for   this gorgeous planet for my sons and we’ve been  trying to warn you guys for so many decades that  

We’re heading towards a [ __ ] catastrophe and  we’ve been being ignored the scientists in the   world have been being ignored and it’s got  to stop we’re going to lose everything and   we’re not joking we’re not lying we’re not  exaggerating this is so bad everyone um that  

We’re willing to take this risk and more and  more scientists and more and more people are   going to start joining us this is for all of the  kids of the world all the young people all the  

Future people this is so much bigger than any of  [Applause] us it’s time for all all of us to stand   up and take risks and make sacrifices for this  beautiful planet that gives us life that gives us heavier let me introduce the a22 network 12 civil  resistance groups from around the world formed  

In April 2022 they took their first actions  including just up oil blocking oil terminals   in the UK of which I was a part today the Italian  group ultimate generaion stage a protest against   their government subsidies for fossil fuel  exploration also on this day police raid  

Properties of the German group last generation and  the latest Crackdown on peaceful protest in their country [Music] Tina Turner died today it makes me think  about death a fear of mine and it reminds   me of lost loved ones and the history and  fights that their generation fought to give  

Me the life I have today it reinforces  that I must do the same for my children   I think about my fear of dying but now I  feel for my children and family it Dawns   on me that climate breakdown is very likely to  be linked to the cause of their future [Music]

Dance I received a reply from the council  concerning the spraying of her herbicide   in our local area band in some countries  products like Roundup that contain glyphy a   known chemical linked to cancer are being  widely used by councils up and down the  

Country the response to my complaint about the  dangers paused to humans animals and insects and   our biodiversity including killing our crucial  pollinators seems to have been sidest stepped   as they continue to spray Pavements parks and  children’s play areas indiscriminately with  

The poison the UK deems this to be safe however  Studies have shown that childhood exposure to   the world’s most widely used weed killer glyphy  is linked to liver inflammation and metabolic   disorder in early adulthood which could lead to  liver cancer diabetes and cardiovascular disease  

Later in life my overwhelming concern is for the  protection of nature of which we are a part we are nature the next day the British media are  going to lose it over a just up oil protest   at the Chelsea flower Shore where some orange  powder paint was thrown this action Hurt No  

One it caused no distress or lasting damage or  disrupted anyone’s journey to work and yet the   media still vilified JSO and stirred up hatred  whilst obsessing over the wrong type of tactics   rather than focusing on why they are sending the  alarm what’s the point of admiring a beautiful  

Garden if we’re going to turn our backs to the  destruction we’re all allowing to happen to   our plants trees and species we share our world  with just stop o join on a slow [Music] I will join and have biodiversity when this is Beau long

Un I think we have to go just on foot just  walk out of here there there there are looters   people shooting each other for a bag of chips  it’s dangerous well what makes you think it’s   not too dangerous to stay I’m already a bit  security conscious I usually do a last minute  

Sweep of the doors and windows before bed but  tonight as I walk towards our patio doors in   the dark my mind jumps forwards 5 10 15 years  as I picture desperate people outside wanting   to get in wanting what we have maybe it’s our  water our food or medicine it could also be  

People trying to find shelter in a safe place  to flee vience and conflict themselves but how   would I know I can’t see a safe future as we  rip apart our life support system we shred any  

Hope of a peaceful life tonight I stand with  a key in my hand tomorrow it could well be a weapon so there you have it one day of  thoughts from someone fully aware of the   risks and challenge ahead we’re seeing people  stepping up acknowledging what’s unfolding  

Around them and simp simultaneously seeing  others in complete denial of the situation   ignorance is bliss I don’t want to remember  nothing nothing so what about you we’re all   individuals with completely different  circumstances but all on the climate   Spectrum somewhere it would be unrealistic  for everyone to get arrested by taking part in  

Direct action but equally to take no action at  all at this time is utterly staggering to look   the other way as we miss the opportunity  to do something is mindblowing it’s time   to step up into our action whatever that  looks like for you before it’s too [Music]

Late in the last 150 years the world  has warmed on average by just over   1° C and our atmosphere now contains  concentrations of carbon dioxide that   have not been equaled for millions of years  we are today perilously close to tipping   points that one’s past will send global  temperatures spiraling catastrophically [Music] higher no I’m here for my son love you we’ve got to find that point where  we all step up we take one step at this point   beyond our comfort zone I’m so grateful to every  single one of you and so proud of you all there’s  

Nothing more beautiful than being part of this  community and it is our responsibility and our   privilege to resist at this crucial time maybe  one day you might realize that there was never   any reasonable excuse for endangering the future  of life on Earth if we continue on our current  

Path we will face the collapse of everything  the time for wor is over on this good green   earth we will take a stand with an open heart and  a Healing Hand with an open heart and a Healing

Hand hi thank you so much for watching please  share this video with as many people as you can   and follow on social media for upcoming content  earlier in the week I spoke to Marcus pictured   there at the top of the QE2 Bridge about his  feelings on the climate an ecological emergency  

This is what he had to say the M25 remains  closed at The dford Crossing for a second day   this lunchtime two environmental activists who  scaled the bridge at the dford Crossing early   this morning two just stop oil supporters scaled  the Queen Elizabeth thei bridge to demand the  

Government halts all new oil and gas licenses  and consents what an incredible situation we   find ourselves in this is Marcus speaking day  418 from behind bars here at High Point prison   and yeah I got here after climbing the Q2 bridge  and that was after trying so many things you know  

After properly facing and grasping the reality  of the climate ecological emergency that we’re   in the middle of and I chose to try with Morgan  to raise the alarm as loud as we could think by   putting that massive warning sign over the M25  and yeah I’ve been very much feeling like that’s  

What it means to tell the truth and act as if  the truth was real because of course a lot of   people know about the climate crisis now but  I feel like the urgency and severity of just   how extremely the situation is now is not being  acknowledged emotionally and physically enough so  

So for me to climb this extremely high bridge  you know with just these ropes um holding us   keeping us alive up there seems proportionately  extreme enough to the crisis that we’re in and   likewise it was it felt very much the same when  I had a chance to explain the reasons and the  

Background for something so mad seemingly  mad to a jury um that you know with a bit   of time um to really go into the ins and outs  of the situation and and why drastic action is   now necessary and you know that doesn’t need  to mean breaking the law but we need to see  

Loads of people all over the place taking drastic  action that is appropriate and that will help to   address this extremely urgent and extremely  severe crisis now so that’s how I ended up [Music] here

  1. Watching for the third time and I've sent this to loads of people. This keeps my attention, goes right into it (climate niche etc) but somehow keeping a lightness and it's so relateable with the everyday themes, music and media, and a great accent too! I'm super impressed

  2. Well done buddy! With you all the way, I woke up 2 years ago, I too have been with JSO since Aprils actions. I’ve done many of the things you mentioned- as a mother, I cannot and will not look the other way. We all need to tackle this like it’s a life or death situation- no excuses.

  3. Thank you! So much rings true with me. I've been trying to warn people for over twenty years. I've changed a few minds but generally people are dismissive and don't want to know. It's very frustrating.
