Witness documentaries that open your eyes at this time on aljazeera. With Climate Change intensifying the stability of the planet is at stake. By twenty fifty Greenhouse Gas emissions must be reduced by eighty percent if we are to have a chance of tackling this crisis environmentally to ship is needed more gently than abba in nov twenty fifth hopes were raised when World Leaders committed to reducing emissions with the paris climate agreement but in june twenty seventeen President Trump pulled the United States out of the a cold the United States with draw the reaction against his decision was widespread and immediate china stepped into the role of Global Environment leader and with the European Union reaffirmed its commitment to tackling Climate Change it is now the biggest superpower in the world Wide Alliance of people fighting to protect the planets. A muscle be it in washington d. C. To find out how much people pose to make a difference in fighting Climate Change and im stephanie long in sanctions Southern China which is leading the world in low carbon champ car industry. Even before he became president it was clear that trumps environmental policy is going to fly in the face of march of progress made over the previous decade only a few months into office and his approach threatens not only global security. Also that of the United States itself but the effects of Climate Change are already keenly felt. President trump a start to the process of rolling back the clean water rule which conserves the nations waterways is written in the existence of the Environmental Protection agency the National Organization set up to protect the environment and communities and these revived Government Support for fossil fuels as my administration is putting an end to the war on coal for trumps environmental legacy might have a surprising twist im in the usa to see how communities are coming together to bypass the white house forming a Global Network of grassroots resistance. To come to the peoples climate much here in washington d. C. Is one of three hundred marches across the country calling for a change in environmental policy. That they. Have to meet about climate because its john and i get it right. The what. Were dealing with Climate Change right now is not a situation where you know itll be coming to us in the future it is wrapping right now like me and so i came all the way here to d. C. To say that enough is enough. With eighty one percent of the United States energy still coming from oil coal and natural gas many to opposed to trumpet ministrations to the fossil fuel industry. Was out. To come across with skillion from new york state and outspoken activists for a new bill energy well a gas industry is trying is has a serious on slot to walk us into the emphasis trucks here and thats going to keep us addicted the fossil fuels for the next fifty years the people that are here walking today they have sat opposite message what new forms of energy altar. Energy renewable energy. That. If the environment where a banker would be saved by now you could just stand here for ages looking at this wonderful kind of slogans. That. This chap of the front is michael hes from an Organization Called says from tonight theyre facing some significant challenges with hapless and neck munity oh yeah oh yeah yeah but passiveness ive come here to represent my coalition as to how we can Work Together nationally. Combat Climate Change and Global Warming and then what is the power of this kind of protest to receive you know real change has ever happened without this type of engagement from the civil rights movement. Right for women. So gay rights. To you name it all change we see thats happening to our communities our society thats been momentous has come through this type of engagement. By those later the official count comes in and its a pass is everyones expectations over two hundred thousand people showed up double the expected turnover. Best to much points down this to one person i want to meet. With the staff quit his job a Senior Advisor to the Environmental Protection agencys Environmental Justice team two months after President Trump came into power i want to know why hes here today as an individual sometimes it can be overwhelming and you feel disconnected were connecting folks so it is a Global Movement there is a global connection that is happening and were going to utilize that power to make change not only for today but for future generations as well to give us a sense of how. You and the rest of the people here looking to press you on the administration so this is not just a moment this is a movement and that means that once folks are done marching were breaking down silos people are coming together and authentic ways in creating clabber. Razan folks are going to go back to their respective communities theyre going to take the information that they got here but theyre also going to get engaged and that means that theyre going to get engaged on the local level and the state level. Talking to the marches here theres a real sense that people post can create change to have counted local grounds will stand up to the hopeless he was killing him who i met on the march has invited me back to his farm in the catskill mountains north new york state to show me how to do just that former teacher wesley into the Small Holding farm using one hundred Percent Renewable Energy. So this is electric charge at the ground to the ground and then this is a portable religion or it yeah its i mean one person can move it from one place either as we move the fence around. But wes isnt your average farmer he led the charge on one of the most powerful environmental says in campaigns in new york state history. Two thousand and nine he built a local coalition that sidestepped federal policy by claiming that fracking in the states waterways. Using local state legal obligation to guarantee clean wanted to citizens within his colleagues managed to ban fracking across the entire state. Today he has his sights set on a new bill to transition new york state into one hundred Percent Renewable Energy by twenty fifty its a huge lift to do this but we need to mandate it and then and come up with how to do it and and labors involved too because you know as right now theres more jobs in the renewable sector then there is in the fossil fuel sector and new york state has the political inertia to do that now partly coming out of the fracking fight we have a highly educated population in the state because. As of that fracking fight so thats what were going to albany. If successful will do with not just new york state towards a greener future creating thousands of jobs in the process to push it forward when sitting to the state Capital Building an opening if you choose de groups and pointed to. That act as a whole presentation on gun violence whatever legislation theyre pushing. And people come from all over the state to follow it and then you know some of these sorts of probably going off and having meetings with their elected officials from their communities this is genuine kind of book of politics is happy right its this is it this is how it works in this country theres a lot of interesting ironies that happen on tuesdays in albany i might be here pushing for something to stop a pipeline and im a get on the elevator with someone from the oil and Gas Association of america whos got a paid lobbyist there. You know trying to do the exact opposite pipelines all over the place. For lewis is he meets with his local legislative to food the plan for one hundred Percent Renewable Energy in new york state. In the meeting. To play two ways emerges with women n. D. P. Tista its a Climate Emergency the governor needs to show some urgency and so we need we dont know yet if hes going to step up and take the kind of bold leadership that we need in an age of trump but we have about four and a half weeks to make it happen and i like our chances where you yeah well and whats going to us whats going to happen next i mean weve got another meeting with folks in the senate though the other thing thats going to happen is it is going to go back to brooklyn im going to go to the catskills and were going to get everybody in those places on board with us and push for it then they can ignore it and the folks the organizations that function out of albany theyre going to be doing the same thing here in albany with all those elector. They told us ten years ago theres no way that you could stop fracking its going to happen you know and after a seven year fight governor now theres a ban on fracking we stopped it so im really mad or what President Trump says about the e. P. A. And were going to make that transition despite and that would be. We dont know if theyre going to succeed in this but what we do know is after being in d. C. And seeing all these Community Groups all working together is that Climate Change is not one problem is one Silver Bullet solution its made up of many little problems that interact in intersect in every aspect of our lives and what that means is that well have an opportunity to get involved as i see the getting involved and being together thats the people thats the solution. A month after filming continued efforts by west and other campaigners who validated when the governor of new york state andrew cuomo signed an executive order pushing only agencies to develop plans for eighty percent of you and g. Twenty fifty. Never going to do it. Throughout the United States coalitions of solidifying united by the commitment to meet the piracy targets the group climates masses over three hundred members. Of the one thousand two hundred governance has Colleges Universities and businesses have joined a Public Campaign called we still and a union of twelve states plus plus a recount has been founded by the governess of washington new york and california the United StatesCongress Alliance is a coalition of states that have reacted to President Trumps decision. Into west of there are United States from a climate treaty and the state stepped up taking it upon themselves to do the things that would be necessary if the United States were still at the table this is a coalition that can get as big as there are jurisdictions that are willing to work with us i think theres real hope that as states see other states joining and getting some benefit out of it that theyll decide that they want to be part of it to california is also working internationally in june twenty seventh Team Governor jerry brown signed a deal to work on Climate Change with china china looks to us now as a representative of the United States they want to see not just california of other states coming to china they want to send people here to learn from some of our techniques that weve used over the years to bring down the levels of smaug which not that long ago were as bad as what you now see today in beijing seeing countries or states or cities that are cutting their emissions and doing well economically is what Everybody Needs to be doing and we all can learn from each other because there is no one place that has a monopoly of all the good ideas. China is the worlds biggest c o two emitter and urban air pollution here has reached crisis. Cities like are now harnessing the power of both the government and the private sector to Carbon Transport initiatives that are blazing a trail not just for other cities in china and the rest of the world. In a booming metropolis in china southeastern manufacturing belts until the eightys just a Farming Community was chosen as a. Ground for communist chinas experiment with capitalism. Now its chinas answer to Silicon Valley with over eleven million inhabitants one hundred fifty skyscrapers and three million cars. But chinas boom has come at a price the World Health Organization has estimated that air pollution kills one Million People in the country each year its a crisis that desperately needs a solution and hard and that solution is hopefully about to kick me out. Of money. So i just hopped into one ascensions electric taxis and they say that by twenty twenty all of the time Seasons Change and im going to be fully electric which is amazing so im off to find out how thats going to be done. Im visiting b. Y. D. Or build your dreams which produce the five thousand five hundred electric taxis currently on change in streets. Richard lee is going to show me around it was a good morning i am going to be so for people who dont know too much about lucky tell us about it will be why do stars in the other ninety five as a better mother factor but now through the world more of these new Energy Vehicle manufacturers. So this is the view of the six and this is the first and in most a says full of be you are the putative vehicle was fully charged as of you it gives you four hundred on the five range we may be there are those two types fleet but in china the worlds. B y d reflects a global shift in the industry towards china which last year sold around four hundred thousand new Energy Vehicles more than twice as many athletes u. S. Thats been made possible by the billions of u. S. Dollars worth of subsidies the Chinese Government has used to boost the industry. By. Ok titles are subsidies for some boyish engine by talking like this so you can entitle a rally forty thousand already be told those subsidies. Thats about fifteen percent off the price of this car their best selling plug in hybrid which uses a chargeable battery and a gasoline engine so because this is a plug in hybrid car so you features truth right no so now we operating this even though so that is the period that five five million know and then you know you have a civi over there yes they go. There because if you switch the s. U. V. And if it ends up with just the engine started yeah ok right you feel it so valued further powerful than this. But its not just cars be my ideas making electric buses trucks and Service Vehicles for ports airports and even mines. And electric monorail runs through their campus the goal is to fully electrify every transportation sector an. Inch engine thats already becoming a reality if the logic of that your boss but get on. So its Pretty Amazing to think i september all of us in changing are going to be fully electric like this town. All this means that within a few years the citys entire Public Transportation system will be fossil fuel free. But what about the roughly three million private drivers. Now. A matching if a violent. Im taking a ride with lou dont pump he recently became a father and also bought his second electric car. As a was also hold as a woman the. Wise shoot was. What is so close its a longer kind of star general it was all sanctioned and it is all political and religious which you want it would. Loose all so much potential in the electric car market that he opened his own dealership and repair shop in july twenty sixth. The. Engine has restricted new license plates for fuel cars while dishing them out liberally for new electric vehicles or any bees for short lou has seen Monthly Sales almost double in the last six months trying to make a cut and how malaysia list again on china. Will has a new or some this is simply. A wal mart in those hot hot hot the fastest says a market how did she also talk with a zoom in the hawkers in the summer and also the author who i knew what i was doing and i have over and just as in my little summer. It seems that Consumer Perceptions have already shifted. So i spy a customer and see what she thinks. Of the harsh unless you dont have those you know who you is your solution to this is yes known terms of those who should do less for the how were going to shift to the ones who tell you the fool who do the yoyo we are going home. Today though. Of course all the cell atrocity has to come from somewhere inch Engine Running an electric car generally produces less than a third of the c o two of a gasoline car but its still not carbon zero. Luckily theres an even cleaner way to get around one that runs on nothing but good Old Fashioned legwork. Need to chinas dock list city cycles in a little more than a year legions of these smart bikes have flooded the country cities operated by two dozen competing companies each with a distinct color and design by the end of twenty seventeen china will have twenty million of them. Im meeting up with cycle in the easiest and john she went to learn how to use mobile one of the leading companies. Kuykendall an i. P. O. The i was just a few times that he not only. Have been. So nice to me its one of those who dont know i just. Got venture to the you know the application uses g. P. S. To find a bike near you. Know. You pay with mobile payment which is now widely used across china and off you go. So im testing out the smoke like in this part right now before i. Unleashed myself. In the world and onto the streets of shenzhen and it was pretty good right now. How many men. Dont want to fight wars because one is going to the so it always turns out on top down home in. Addition melbourne sometimes theres just a typo true sometimes a teacher once said i dont want your so i hopped on a hot tub someone stole my son since i owe you all of them sometimes all the money to hide she said im so not. So much so that made my actual son. Just over a year since their launch mo bike has two hundred thousand bikes and change and alone now they could be coming to a city near you mo bike is already up and running in singapore and a chinese competitor is launching in the us this year. But being able to leave them anywhere does create problems. Im meeting with some mo bike boys as theyre known to find out how they stop the city from being overtaken by discarded by its ok to eventually won by the time how much. When when how and fung jan xing use g. P. S. To search for faulty bikes reported by users. So one of the. Embargo. On cuba. Are hunt has brought us to one of gents neighborhoods known as urban villages. Should i am ok demasi those are. All the things oh. Ok. Cool ok oh wow. Im really stuck together. Theyre literally like you know how one pedal thats just stuck in the photo way its a fat free ok ok so somebody has locked these by few gather well that complicates thing the minds of the young element showing off on the job is a bunch of. Those cycles that make it out alive get fixed up and redistributed to official parking spots local transport authorities have set these up to accommodate the new bikes and to try to regulate the system. So now this private initiative has been incorporated into the public transport system. Ok knowing sales hype engines yeah. Because fizzing all fell apart as it was a thing of the all knowing joe on title final way he was also you were there without us and so my whole face side been healed and whole meaning is means youve evolved our will hold on so that. Order out of chaos. This cycle system is still far from perfect but it shows how willing the government is to let private businesses solve environmental problems and overall the approach is working harmful small particulate matter in chansons air has almost halved in the last four years if the trend continues she engine will succeed in meeting e. U. Air quality standards by two thousand and twenty it would be the first Major Chinese city to do that encouraging cities like shanghai and beijing that are also investing in low Carbon Transport. China is still the worlds biggest polluter but theres no doubt its moving forward and thats at least one reason to be optimistic. The Environmental Crisis facing our planet is greater now than ever before but as weve seen in the series of arthritis its in the face of the Biggest Challenges that some of the most Effective Solutions kind of match some depend on cutting edge science whilst others can be simple. Oh a spearheaded by people who are determined to make a difference its one local initiatives get wider political and Financial Support that they can really make a difference globally despite the Current Us Administration people and governments around the world are coming together in the back to combat Climate Change this can only be encouraging when reso much urgent work to. Beyond arctic ice sheet is melting a process that is affecting the entire globe. In a special episode draws joins fifty five scientists on a brand cycling journey of discovery around the continent for a look into the past and the future of the planet. But its quite amazing just to see that thats the best book when you rise up this time on aljazeera. To. Indulge your five senses. What began as a small Extremist Group in africas most populous country we dont have that indepth to from the government to just shoot him soon turned into a battle front for the nigerian government.
