emergency services, allowing the fire to take hold and it celebrated spice to topple the . yeah, it's terrible. i can't put into words what the stock exchange means for us as a building and does a symbol for copenhagen. the full dragons are a part of our sky line, and a lot of people from copenhagen move past it every day. it's a full 100 year old cultural history that has been lost no time in copenhagen, but also in denmark. no longer an active stock exchange. the building is headquarters to the danish change that called us. there were no reports of injuries, but there was huge concern for its many priceless aut. well, it's an all american ford building on the 28th. so it's very story. buildings have a lot of valuable, facing inside the building as well. so as i am trying to raise the
2:32 am
the most could only stand instead, but some pauses by helps emergency crew rescue some of the historic paintings and artifacts from the building. it was actually the most impressive hole in copenhagen, maybe in the night of the wolf, oregon, and the golden elements all around, all the contagious cabinets. we lost something big today as the plains receded, it became evident. much of the damage is to the front of the building, the rid damage being less severe, to audi, to tell if this piece of data is history can be salvaged. charlie angela out to 0. 1 use have photo in drawing us off to the heart, stay with the you will see the caught a duty and a growth using for the p. use a caught,
2:33 am
to contribute to improving the lives of thousands of our projects, except the cost. and we strive to ensure it reaches its deserving recipients, visit the costs are requested. and remember, it's a copier size, wealth, and increases systems. costs on red chris, the, the the,
2:34 am
that, the good, the money down, the technician that i talked about, but they should have written it down because the gwinnett, at the time the, the tech is over. i don't want to live in a condo. so i'm assuming that the . ready the, the not at the for know the
2:35 am
houses had been counted body, but it didn't, it the saw that the we have no cross that threshold into human into slammed change. we knew this for a very long time. so i told us what was happening, but not all humans are deeply in response for people you meant, but the image very, very true. they are not the ones who are causing the problem. the daughter would not go to the the, the
2:36 am
. ready the really good now i'm trying to see was how many, very much as i said feeling as i that i should have monday. is it going to do? do you have any the
2:37 am
water? no. my last here me okay . just in about the right elevation for, for this right out the to good. yeah, we're river just bought it as a. yeah. this and i think this is like perfect to easy and a is one of the united states is largest greenhouse gas, a meeting state, the many people here or to climate change. so in addition to be in a place that small, horrible to climate change, it's also an area that contributes to it. until
2:38 am
the 19 ninety's united states was responsible for 40 percent of the pollution that was already in the atmosphere. and now china has overtaken the united states in total emissions, but per capita we, we still are bigger polluters, a lot of water. so look out over here, you're seeing a lot of holes of water. a lot of this was land a 100 years ago. that's a lot of resistance. changes to the course of the mississippi river is climate change. an intense storm that, that a road in the area dan, look, you just can you take of, you can see those canals to see those long straight lines. those are canals that were cut in the mars. those are, yeah, those are canals that have been cut in the bars for,
2:39 am
for oil and gas exploration. the state is lost over nearly 5000 square kilometers worth of land over over the last 100 years. you've been under the more optimistic scenario that will be well over a 1000 square kilometers worth of land over the next 50 years. so we're looking at a landscape that is going to remain risking and is going to probably become riskier as a place to live in the me got you to see that
2:40 am
i am from black and his parents, louisiana. been there all my life? it's a beautiful place to live, but it's a community that strongly hold on to its roots because of sea level rise close by, you know, the climate change and different things. but mostly we're going out to see like to type tannic. it's down. we don't fund you're looking at the whole town. i am the town. there's only one person living in it to me like was parent as was the rich. i'll say they were the richest state in the, in the parish, because on guess we'll look at the consequences. we take a look at our environment. it's
2:41 am
a battle because you constantly fighting the stalled search from hurricane. it wouldn't be for that. i think everything would be good. i've been fighting hurricanes since a hurricane betsy. that wasn't 65. i was then i had hurricane camille and 1969. her came on and 85. then i lost everything. 11 story. the just amazing how it street just came up. we came all the way up to the window of the house. we looked like we were sitting in the middle of a river. katrina totally changed. the geographic supplies from the spanish for ever, as far as people and just every single way of life. the
2:42 am
patients from nursing, from hospitals, waiting for plains to take them. well, i simply don't know why i've never seen anything like this before. it's everyone's doing the best that they can, but thousands are still corrode. here at the cities, sports arena, the super done, the even countries like the united states with for example, when i recon patrina hit new orleans in the, the united states some years ago. not a single ritual middle class, the white american lost their lives. the
2:43 am
we're dealing with one of the largest relief efforts in our nation's history and the federal government role play or 1st priority of course, has the same life. more than 1200 for black people living in the 9th ward of new orleans lost their lights in the richest country in the world. when they saw the hurricane coming, they did not receive the poor people. the 6 bodies in a wheel chair, the land on a floor by the way. and then there's this guy right here this year with more money. always have more options when it comes to to everything. climate
2:44 am
really and whether or not you can evacuate is an economic justice issue because you have to put gas in your tank to leave. you have to, you know, get a hotel room somewhere else. people with more money have more options to leave. when they give a mandatory evacuation, that's what it is. take what you need. know because nobody wants to come save. you the it was totally devastated by katrina and it was a ground 0 to $10.00. almost every genette. there's looking for coffins and tubes. i got a brand new able to drive to also do it. and then when he was in a boat, it was total devastation cuz they had just debris everywhere. tried drive and, and that's when you know you a good job. if you can get through that, the
2:45 am
aster katrina, this cemetery was a man, had tuned all over. he didn't know who was his. and i work in here for months trying to put people back in to see me at the store. when they come in they talk no mercy on not even a cemetery the the devastation that dead power stuff. it's the katrina was monumental to its people and communities as far as just wiping out everything just picked you to very quiet. no electricity, nothing. just total silence. the
2:46 am
we don't have community anymore, discharge has to be packed, a good alternative about that's all caused from the environmental changes that have occurred. it caused people to move and didn't want to come back and do to go to church and you know, i'm the only white woman in a church. that's crazy. even if you look at reach countries which are now being impact about climate change, almost invariably the most vulnerable of people who are suffering now are poor people. in the us, for example, this one is which is the, comes in the world and you know,
2:47 am
it's 25 percent of the population who live in substandard housing. but it's important to understand that's a, that's climate change is an issue that a shot through is any policy in multiple respects. and we see it in class terms. first and foremost, i guess the most obvious way we know that it's the richest that are overwhelming and responsible for, for accessing missions. and so there is a very big disparity amongst who causes the problem and who suffers the consequences they feel abandon, most of them. it's just not fit the depression sets in. you need help. some people need help. so we really have to have a very good place. the
2:48 am
you know, wants to stay realized that our cost of land loss was really getting serious. it started pa, so we start rebuilding some of those areas that last late they came up with a master plan. one of the projects in the master plan is to rebuild the coast by partially diverting the flow of the mississippi river. that one brings a lot of settlement engine landscape and it would bring a lot of fresh water into the landscape. settlement is how you build land and fresh water carries nutrients. it can push salt water out to see if the plan is fully implemented. you're looking at several 100 square miles worth of land that that would have otherwise been this. and it will reduce fund risk over the
2:49 am
life of the project. but every year, by several $1000000000.00, the we don't have a say so in the states messed. but it's affecting the people of clackamas parish, and some of them don't like a settlement is also can clogged up the deals of oysters and settlement can vary and we store the grandfather, arrived here in 19 o. you heard about the hardworking oysters life in clackamas parish, louisiana. they came from a very poor country, didn't have much money in around 1920, he built him with champ where he got his 1st voice to lease back. at the time. it
2:50 am
was just a wild wilderness basically no levies to protect your homes from the river and stuff. but you didn't really mean it back them because the land was a little higher. the this diversion is, is a bad do the basically opened the river right. 25 miles north of here. and just let the water uncontrollably flood into a crime for steam as to where as powerful sea food, moisture strength, crafts, fish. we knew back 10 and we know one even more now, the devastating effect this is going to have the life just can't. the so healthy living oyster re creates
2:51 am
a healthy living comes util. off the oysters. you kill off the coast. we all the canary in the mine, this one mass to massive beast is going to flow tremendous amounts of water. and it's going to take millions of gallons of water to me also has a settlement, and it's not going to work. and the process is going to kill off all of us. that's a good sign. great. so that's what we're looking for. that's the future idea. you know, we gotta keep the waters right. everything's gotta stay right for that to try. but i'm gonna have to try one of these website people needs to be my son is a for generation always to the former. they don't have
2:52 am
a future here. this thing becomes, comes to like the families going this business for a 120 years. approximately. it's, it's all we've ever done and it's all of everyone to do a planning on doing this for the rest of my life. now, i don't know. it's easy to say, oh, i'll just go to do something else, but there's not a lot of other opportunity here. the you realize how many people are employed outside the coast throughout the country on some of the sea food that we produce here in the barracks area. base that's going to be totally in isolated. we've beg, please, let's come up with an ultimate plan because this is going to destroy not only our livelihoods, but our way of life on culture. mother nature always wins. so we always are at her
2:53 am
mercy. and we just have to sit back, let us have them try. yeah, the, there's no necessary contradiction between social object as i like the logical objectives they can and must be accomplished. at the same time, we have more than enough energy and resources to ensure good, less for all several times over the i think the global system is broke and therefore a broken system does not solve itself. we're going to have to find new ways we do not need fossil fuels anymore. it's people knowing what to do, behaving consciously do the right things that will help us solve this problem,
2:54 am
not by ignoring everybody else and looking after one. so there's a false expectation, particularly among rich people, that they can survive everything, even rich people are going to be affected by the impacts of climate change and they're going to have to deal with it. so fish behaviors look, got us into this problem and surface behavior will not get us out of this problem the which hard because the scientist sites studies sea level rise and i work at a place that's vulnerable to sea level rise and it's it's hard for percent to, to a doesn't self believes in
2:55 am
a parishes lost to 4 percent of the population over the last 2 years. that means one in 25 people in several south louisiana parish has moved out of the account. the schools are closing. and if you lose the, the student age population, you're losing the next generation people that are being born today are going to spend most, if not all of their lines in a world that is warmer than the one that their grand parents grew up in. the question that facing us is not yes, that will happen, but how many people will be impacted and how many people will suffer? the
2:56 am
lot of people from new orleans and i used to have so many friends. i had so much fun cooking dinners, having people over we're going duck on. i had plenty ducks, you know, but through the use all that sort of general in a way as we lost environment from storms, we don't have a place to gather anymore. the whole environment's totally different. 2 2 2 2 2 the, you know, i consider myself, what do everybody thinks? i'm rich, but i'm not the, that's the environment has is it to do everybody's life?
2:57 am
it's not just my life. it's everybody's like around the world, the environment changes your life changes. that's a true fact. the around the world, it seems natural disasters and become a frequent part of life from flux to trouts and fires is not why comedies here about extreme weather or destroying infrastructure and most importantly people's lives. the united nation says more natural disasters are coming due to climate change. so is there a need to establish an international agency that specifically deals with such events? and would that help to level the playing field with disasters? can we get out of the site to a certain nurse man's the worst enemy? i'll say the same, the on line. you know, to the end i'm going to be very due to the
2:58 am
growing up in greece means taking action. welcome to generation change, a playful series. it seems to understand the challenge is mobilizing, use around the world. we need to a political party that we'll talk about our problems, know how come from a generation because 0 is being seem the groups the size of the system as know for most the interest of working class people, there is a difference between being able to participate in the system and actually being represented in a 5th generation change on al jazeera. how well it's, it's rent, but who pays the price? when we came to clean it, new orleans more than $1200.00 poor black people lost their lights. not
2:59 am
a single rich americans lost their life. the real cost of the climate emergency. the most vulnerable of people who are suffering are poor people. but even rich people are going to be affected by the impacts of climate shift. outages here as new series died off to the higher the the
