7:34 pm
rights. and people in power. investigate the the the end of 2023 in due by a fabulous city of glow with carbon heavy wealth like so many in the rich nations of the world. nearly 100 tons of people gathered to take part in cop 28. the climate conference charged with saving the world. the stakes not have been higher. humanity has opened the gates of hell or in those seats. he's having orlando's
7:35 pm
effects, least of them is watching crops getting the way by flats swamping temperatures spawning disease. as he started fios right. but the very same day that gutierrez delivered that urgent call for action. at least one leader and the global noise appear to pitch in the opposite direction. float we're announcing today, it is a break from the pulse, a more pragmatic propulsion it unrealistic of price. we can never allow calvin budgets to be set in the same way again, but soon that didn't just slow down, moves towards mid 0 days. what some so is a screeching hungry turn, a noble we banned new oil and gas in the north sea. for many in the global sites suffering in a crisis created launch lead by fossil fuels growth in the north. such backtracking
7:36 pm
disputants despair and dying. the global most the appreciate to get probably why the and what the, moving for what the is, what they do, what is in a way and for this that. but if you discover it is just that edition, is the global noise to have the money out of the community, do they will to stop by for a long time. the mobile cells is really what that to me. what's the re, how of the deed was that? so comp, $28.00 had to confront, to critical problems. not just how to reduce the emissions that threatens humanity, but also how to convince the rich nations of the north to seriously address global inequality. but would they to the different people who came here to put a laser desk and the thoughts that everyone's vote for the test or the room materials for free? that not going to come with just totally out or, and i'd say you pull you up while you pre, i've slept. but so it, if the abc do for you, we have to push the noise to before the, the,
7:37 pm
know the know what we had. reading them example the do the must provide this little so in the, in the delegates degree, for the 1st time, there was a need to transition away from fossil fuels. and they also agreed to create a loss and damaged fund. but even comp 28. so i don't, frankly, president send you the caution and agreement is only as good as its implementation as we are what we do not what we say. so what does the lawson damage funds need to do? and refunding as part of an international team is like a dentist looking for a nonsense. what's needed is, is not a fund for recovering from damages after an extreme event or after store what's needed is funding for investments in low carbon infrastructure and in energy in
7:38 pm
a way that doesn't make climate change orders. the countries of the global north are the ones who are historically responsible for creating the kind of crisis in the 1st place. meanwhile, the global. so countries are now needing to mitigate far more rapidly and leap frogging the fossil fuel infrastructure that the rest of the roads in the global north has had the benefits from to the scan of funding. of course, if we look at the global so that a whole is going to run into the hundreds of billions, if not truly, and the current collectors are miniscule compared to what is needed. but if the develop nations of the world will not accept that responsibility to the poor nations of the global set as opposed to nowhere. so that's the question more clearly, because then here the, this is the albertine region in west and you've got an abusive phone from child
7:39 pm
place one of the most important areas and the best that to you in the world and has to menu from to the river no crushing spectacularly done that just in the fall and some national towards the trunk couldn't see the complex and the fairchild surround, the displaces. and my mother was born here. the sitting john, she has an end to me. what are you and but as the rains failed and seasons become unpredictable, the people of this land space and existential threats, and not just from the climate crisis, because their homes being changed forever. any resorts that actually close that crisis in the 1st place, oil that i will,
7:40 pm
wayne came to the street talking about how it is going to lift people from the pool, but that their region is you've got land locked and sampled by international that inputs. oh, that's petroleum products, exhaust expense. it's president of nearly 40 years, you know, during the 70. so the oil as a potential saved here. but if you can, to keep control. uganda, he argued, was construct its own oil refinery, develop its own petrochemical industry, and ensure that it's foiled benefits. it's people not for an interest in this in 2 months, he was still at school when 12 years ago, government officials are running in his village looking for a place where they kind of deal with the find that a knocking the mon daddy's over the land. they wanted to come by the district was
7:41 pm
the answers to home, some 7 fighters and people, mostly subsistence from us. suddenly confronted with the devastating choice, relocate to a place of the government's choosing or except below value cash compensation for giving up their homes. over the next decade, it would become clear that for these people, at least you can just oil was nothing less than a scourge. commercially viable fields were 1st discovered in 2006, extending from underneath lake albert to the precious diversity of murchison falls from national park. by trinity, trinity majority of rights to the largest of the fields to link were held by french oil giant to attack the energies who will operate the projects. they also share ownership of the smaller kingfisher field with its operates as soon as the chinese
7:42 pm
national offshore oil company. the foot keys are in the development, is the stations you guns and national oil company task defined the 70 was managing . you can just commercial oil interest including the refinery. gilbert coming is you next chief commercial officer. our role is to ensure that the value that's being created in the petroleum sector is protected and the state participation gets some of that value. but from the start, there was a disagreement to kind of introduce, wanted to get the oil out of the country by building the wells longest feature pipeline capable of transporting you. candice think lexi crude to the coast to export to foreign markets. president 70 c later because he's not degree fast,
7:43 pm
might still timeframes where you're taking the pitch pipeline for what she did. this definitely does. well, good image you needs. why don't you be there? and we, we support. i always said it was the fight, but i knew she was after the fun, whole trip, but by playing good luck with them. and it was nor does he live up in the window and i'd be the government determined to build the refinery to begun. pressurizing locals and come by late to get out of the way and didn't bid to limit the compensation payable for lost crops. they issued from egypt. they told us in order you've got to live full clips at the cotton take less than 3 months or 6 months. the ruling left many families like innocence, short of cash,
7:44 pm
unable to pay school fees, most of will have had some group relief score that didn't compel. the president mas 70 was under increasing pressure at the button done on these opposition to the idea of a child's national oil pipeline. so that's why we sit on the idea, whole refined that on. if i put so much money, but let it be, what despite is compromise on the pipeline is plans for the refinery remains intact . meanwhile, the village is with the id from their conditional homestead, doing newly constructed resettlement area. many say the new village is completely unsuitable. this is my you house basically way. what are you located to tied to the praise us from our college. i know a type of number for women and children. even the daily task of collecting firewood,
7:45 pm
or water has become difficult and sometimes dangerous. because even what i mean, what direction, you know, between auction you know, cuz i'm a for the store with women not being left in the window for us looking for firewood . yeah. being different up. they also face challenges growing enough food or something to the past. the younger shipped to california as somebody is kind of want to say, we give them nice. tell them yes. if the house isn't nice but they i cannot leave the house. or are you confident that people lived or given you housing the confidence that happy me set process. yes. the size category can yes. sofa. we have not encountered a specific grievance that has not been results. things are seen rather differently
7:46 pm
here. but the one great irony kind of be ignored. i slowly live in the sense, uh, a government of why i dislike. i let it find out how much of that is not to say that nothing has changed. this is the mazda plan for the cover. they've got the industrial pock previously called about an industrial park on bonnie, the place innocent, and his community once called home. that's a new name and has been changed beyond own risk english, the q, and what is the move to move the country guns and government is building international airport. it's 3.5 kilometer runway capable of handling the largest freight plains in the world to funded the parts $318000000.00 from the british
7:47 pm
government and $43000000.00 from stands at charter bank. and then we're not expected to have different other lights on industry. we're in this area here which i'll post because we sort of have scores. we sort of have some additional corporate. but most importantly, this will also be the beating thoughts of the whole elva team. oil of project fits here. the crude will arrive by feet of pipes from the to then governments, king fisher fields for onward transfer. this over here which is located in that direction is the beginning of the east africa and crew, or pipeline 1443 kilometers propaganda a to design. yeah. to tonga, where the quote would be exported to the international market. so to town got their way and he called the east african crude oil pipeline. one side of the big compromise with president 70 is now under construction.
7:48 pm
the pipeline will be sent by critics mentioned in good condition fields extracted via dozens of well pads linked by hundreds of miles of transportation types and even more new roads. there are 2 central processing plants, so cps one, under construction, that's a nukes kingfisher field. and an even bigger cbf operation by total energy is a tuesday boost we pump crude to the eco pipeline and on to foreign markets. and then of course, there's the new airports and this way why, why is this at the runway being built in the middle? the face is of course, the major purpose of this airport is to import equipment that are support in construction of the fighters. the problem is that the refinery ms. seventy's original proposal. the 2nd element in is the compromise that the airports principal is on that still shows no signs of being built or even financed until the
7:49 pm
displace people have combined a lot. it's hard to take, we had our trees. yeah. we had our photos that we had swamps today by the eclipse, from the airport to meet the 80. and so what has happened to the refinery? the problem is getting the oil light to the ground is not cheap. and uganda has been either the nicole nor financial capacity to do that domestic. so as you've gone to an economist, i'll be back on my end explains me 70. i'd only one way to turn without that was made. yes, it's difficult to point of a successful i put just so the fact that you have natural resources, it's not enough. you actually need the oil companies, but any one investing huge sums on the infrastructure needed to extract oil, expects lucrative tons, and as quickly as possible. if you go from there,
7:50 pm
then you have a much longer, up to recovery period. so it becomes on viable for that, so you have to think about this stuff to try to sell good enough which and it did as we speak, recipient dialing below the good if i play the 4th. so despite the seventy's been compromised with the oil giants of a dd called pipeline is government remains committed to the refinery on the tenant by no less than 3 failed attempts to raise the capital to funded the vendor refinery was an extremely important asset. both strategically, nationally and commercially, without having problems of that. it is not easy to raise funding to raise the entries findings for this project if they have been previous challenges of potential joint venture partners. uh,
7:51 pm
looking at the project and not be interested. what we can say right now is that we will either do it ourselves, or we will get to joint venture funding. we will do it through their own funds, or we will go into the market. what is not negotiable? is that the vendor refined? it will be developed and will be commissioned. does that sound like a time to use? it? does it sounds like a lot of a plan? it sounds like they, they still have no idea where they're going to go. so it's a joint venture partners' in terms of developing so while progress stoled on the refinery plans for the pipeline procedures of pace to run a call, a joint venture company was set up with his head office in the town building in 2, telling the cheese which held 62 percent of the shares soon, 8 percent. since you got tons of near 15 percent, each plant was the funding would come from a mix of equity and then to raise you going to share the investment president 70
7:52 pm
to throw himself on the masses of the international market. we're going to be to the money to do what he wants to order that the monday $1.00 was the $98.00 by st. you from what the 100, the passing is going to come from the north. that was on the conditions using he has got busted, get them to make matters worse. the oil markets was entering a perfect storm of instability in 2020 low prices collapsed. need to bends back within a couple of years. but as the global energy transition got it in the mentioned, most expect started to predict some ongoing price declining. everything needs to long term back in compiler, luminous began circulating. the town was secretly renegotiating. it's deal with, you've got an economist subset that,
7:53 pm
that this is only going to make sense for the totes out in a scenario where oral prices are declining. if it's hard. so we negotiate production sharing agreements and understands the shift the risks onto, onto uganda was due to people know the deals that have been struck with the top. i must say to you that these northwest by this, the government refused to disclose the i would miss the, the, the signing was the data was to know what was funny because to disclose the critics few you gun to share the profits while the cost of servicing it's for the dance grow when it comes time over now, shedding that the benefits on the elizabeth sources that global self countries find out that most the benefits, the opinion bits say do, don't send any with anything. and the 8 reconsider oil and gas to be
7:54 pm
a catalyst. it's also funds because what we're doing here is investing to receive a return on investment. and so our role is to ensure the commercial value is captured. but is that realistic given the realities of the global market, and you can this dependence on the old giants to get the, all the lights and the ground. the chief executives of u, candace oil industry regulator, is an extra bundle discount. that's an extremely powerful corporation. is a problem trying to regulate an organization is big and the strongest that we've heard twitch the entire project will class. do you really have the thought at the end, the power to control them? it's not a matter of control or it's regulation. the sides of the car is also a good thing, because in these times of financial difficulty, you need a company as a financially fall forward as to what are the same through these financial
7:55 pm
challenges. we enjoy a relationship with the company so far that would the corporate citizen, one of the authorities, responsibilities isn't shooting the projects effective people, known as pops up properly compensated by the old companies. the authority to custom meets to have something to do my my leaving with the money i got from the government of your gun to um to dial energies. today emily works is to to funds because subaltern mays and runs of groups reducing honey for sale. i really appreciate the, the government of you going to together to, to does the energies for the walk they are doing uganda. thank you. next we were taken to meet john milton using to solve the cutting supplied by to our town. as far as going from one to over 20 acres, we came to work with do me to tell, pick a golf and i love your team is only take immediate walk. clearly emily and john are
7:56 pm
very happy. so much to the to town also features in, in their corporate publicity. while in a corporate video featuring project affected farm is to tell detailed the precise number of people who will be relocated as a result of the project. as with any major infrastructure project, relocations will be required. in the case of the to land got a comp projects $764.00 households will be re homed. re presenting approximately 5000 people. so are all the pups really is happy? is emily and john and all the figures supplied by to tell really accurate. these are very different numbers, the kind of walk you have to do, the oil and gas fixed. if you fail to. and that's part of counting project affected people we would worry with, or you can do the other more difficult things. this is the easiest thing anybody
7:57 pm
can do on this project, counting people what project affected. and so if you can't kind of project deflected people, you shouldn't be working in the oil sector. best not to scroll down from the video on to tells website then. because already the relocation figures are different. households have increased and the number of people affected is gone from 5 foot to nearly 19, essentially and it doesn't stop there. this is an official government, an oil company, re settlement action plan on page a $138.00. a table reviews that they actually expect over 31000 people to be affected by the to think of part of the operation of tao told us that numbers may change over time due to several factors. but international n g o's, including human rights watch, suggest the real number of people affected by the entire project is in excess of
7:58 pm
a 100 sizes. i reject that completely. the number is that on 10000 people in part 2 of our investigation, we'll talk to somebody real people behind those bits in a contest it because it is not being supposed to be treated like insulated was the like this the the injustice for me is the driving force of why i do this to show people what it's like to live in places where injustice isn't something you read in. the news is something that happens to every single day. whether it's a war, natural disaster, whether it's political corruption, making sure that they understand. and this simple language is absolutely crucial.
7:59 pm
the cities already 50 percent evacuated, most of those people actually left in the early days of the world. i couldn't do this job without the best cumberland, best produces the best spaces and those other people to ireland in order to be able to get that message out to the world. themes in the gaza strip as is continues. there is a deliberate mission of posting and humanity in western media and it needs to be questioned, sustains coverage that actively humanizes is ratings and actively humanizes palestinians. this is not the time for doing this to kind of wait tracking those stories, examining the journalism and the effect that news coverage can have on democracies everywhere. here at the listing. that's why have american evangelicals become, his real strongest background is us president, you'll find the right to stand with this really with no red line. as long as us
8:00 pm
support continues. is there anything that can stop is real, solve on concept, from going on in? definitely a quizzical look at us politics. the bottom line, the lies on rasa is very false. intensify strikes on the southern city, killing thousands of civilians as these font told sweet a critical moments in college. right. the products of robin you're watching, obviously are like from the coming up on the break in the us, secretary of state meets his goals, council pos and says he's yet to see and is really invasion plan of rafa that didn't show civilians will not be home. please clock down the gate student protests and.
