to life on are the world health organization predicts, but in 30 years it will be directly responsible for the death of over 250000 people each year. many feel governments of failing to respond, and it's unlikely that the paris agreement targets of keeping the global temperature rise below 2 degrees centigrade will be met. but the time and pressure groups believe change is possible, thus seeking to push urgent environmental action to the top. the political agenda and these movements a gathering momentum. i'm the raw, tore in the us where a group of dung active if it's pushing for a radical shift in government policy in order to avert a climate crisis. and i make the carbon in the u. k. and i have come to learn about movement known as extinction. rebellion, whose members believe is the only route to environmental change is that a people is rising fearful for the planet, they'll inherit young people around the world are standing up and demanding a better future. in the u. s. a growing and passionate group of youth is campaigning for urgent environmental action. and the forcing the adults to listen we're talking about painless happening now. with this is the sunrise movement in state just 2 years. this group of activists, most of whom are under 30, has grown 210-0000 members for not for the one percent and their strategy clear to hope climate change. my working within the system and lobbying politicians into pushing through legislative and economic reform had come to boston to find out how the sunrise movement has become a force to be reckoned with in us politics. leading the charge of 26 year old varsity for cash was sitting in massachusetts. she joined the university's fossil fuel divestment campaign before co founding sunrise in 2015. you've been with the sunrise movement from the very beginning. what made you started? a number of us young people, all over the age of 30, we're seeing that the hurricane for getting bigger the fires seasons were getting longer, the floods were getting bigger. but there wasn't a movement big enough for young people to ensure that we had a habitable planet for our future generations. you talk more about why you feel you need to act right now. so scientists are telling us right now that we have just 12 years to make unprecedented changes to transform every part of our economy. and so our society to be carbonized, to get off fossil fuels, to invest in renewables, and to protect life and human civilization on this planet as we know it and get our politicians have not done what's necessary. they have not built and garner the political will. that we need and people are dying as a result. at the heart of the sunrise strategy is the green new deal. a radical environmental change policy. the idea of her, which was conceived in the us in the 1960. the deal's goal is to completely transform the u. s. economy by ending is dependency. and fossil fuels investing as jed and renewable energy and creating jobs in the process. the premium deal is a massive economic mobilization at a scale that we have not seen in this country since world war 2. that is an effort to stock climate change and create millions of good jobs. i'm curious to find out whether real political change is possible with people power alone, particularly by those so young i've come to the sunrise, boston hub. there are 204 hubs like this spread across the nation. here every month, 60 sunrise members gather to share experiences, get behind the cause. welcome to our april 2nd, how do i get in doing a to hubs? give people of all backgrounds and opportunity to come together and voice their concerns. every single person who decided to come to the senior today is a part of this movement is a part of this great moment in history. these are young people need to be hurt. it's theresa thompson, 14. i have and they want to take positive steps to fix the world. we live in a little direction. what kind of trust the hub splits into breakout groups where they plan their next actions. what do we think will actually make high schoolers enlist? we just post like a green background with the words like brand new to you and put a link in our bio or something i know into or maybe your friends in high school care about climate change. a lot of people, i know, i know that climate change is an issue there. that's not to be debated. how willingly are to get in. i think a lot of people don't feel like they have the power to make any change. we actually come together totally pantry and so many things i thought was coming into meetings . and it's really a lot more than that very energy. they're engaged, you build a sense of urgency. it's not a reality for them. this is their future. and you can feel that the for all their passion, how effective it's been. i've actually been marsh these invited me to her home to show the impact sunrises had in the top tears of power. so this was from our 1st action ass, nancy policies office in washington dc. and as you can see, there's literally hundreds of young people whining up the halls and they're carrying science that say, what is your plan? our ultimate goal was to share our vision of what the green, the deal is all about. look at this or seems to be a sort of plan of action, right? there's a, there's a style that sunrise is using to achieve your goal. we're really trying to embody the fact that we are young people fighting for our future. and we want it to be joyous. and we want it to be raucous, and we want it to be serious and we want it to be determined and resolved me center . i say that older generations, chronic and activity on environmental issues is inexcusable. the united states will cease all implementation of the non binding paris accord. the current republic government refuses to even acknowledge. there is a problem. sunrise, believe they must act to make change happen. it is a lie or that talk to you right now, and they are being heard. green generation has risen up. a growing number of democrats senators now support the green new deal. and sunrise found influential political allies and socially conscious representatives like alexandria, kathy cortez. this is right before representative because the cortez unprecedentedly joined us on her 1st day of orientation as a new congress woman to say that we have nancy pelosi in the democratic party back in pushing for the most progressive in ambitious energy agenda. the country has never seen this about and it's about the fact that we get a point of teacher for our case. and you know that when i but firm opposition to the green deal remain on the 26th of march, 2019 a draft of the deal was unanimously rejected by the republican controlled senate. how did you feel when the resolution got down in the senate? the goal of the resolution is for it to be a statement of values to chart a blueprint to lay out the projects of what would be included with the green new deal. we need an attitude shift, we need to put into gear and into momentum, these big ideas so that we can write the policy over the next year and get these things to pass in. sunrise aim to create momentum for their cars by directly lobbying political leaders. you do it? i said sean and his team plan to doorstep andrea campbell, the president of boston city council, got it. the goal today is get into the simon know possibly on monday when she got it, i later down the road were working with her and several other counselors to crap. the resolution for the new deal. that's going to pass the city council. charlotte, louis ah, the 1st step for the group is to encourage politicians to sign a pledge, promising that they will refuse money from possible companies who want them to act in their interests. or over 1400 politicians have signed so far. as the approach the council president's office, i'm struck by the fruits confident they walk straight and just to meet you. nice to me, you return. we're here to ask you if you could find the know fossil fuel money plus . absolutely, i will say before even sign with thank you for your advocacy work. the stuff doesn't happen by accident if people aren't showing up so happy to participate. happy to do this. i just want to say things so it's not just movement where they're confronting a lot of hostility, they're actually getting support and encouragement and more really, from politician i think we lead by example, and i know i do. and so by saying, let's do this signing on. and committing, we hope that others would follow our lead. it's impressive to see these young people having genuine success in the halls of power. having meetings like this is really rushing because it shows that we do have that out there that we can be working within the system to promote change that we want to see in the work that the sunrise movement is clearly influential and it's getting results for it. matters most. the ultimate goal is to convince the majority of congressmen and women to sponsor in the green new deal. so when the next government is elected in 2020, the bill has the weight of support to make it policy. the sunrise movement is asking for a lot and they're asking for a quickly critic stay there to elicit before problem as massive as climate change. we do need ambitious radical solutions now. ah, today's environmental sight risings of the post as proof, it's incredible. social change really is possible. in 19 o. 3 in britain, the suffragettes campaigned for women to have the rights to vote with a rallying cry of deeds, not words. they often resort to extreme acts at at some race course. emily davidson even gave her life for the cause. these tactics worked in 1928 women, one equal voting rights in britain, 35 years later in america, the civil rights movement. so to end racial segregation. martin luther king lex, the peaceful protests. non problem is the most affordable and available. hoover nicole under the federal for freedom in human bid by $968.00 after a decade of campaigning, african americans to secure legal rights to equal employment voting and housing by analyzing passive resistance movements. political scientist erica chenoweth identified a threshold for success, a 3 and a half percent of the population mobilized against the establishment. social change will happen with pause many of us need to change the way we treat out. there is one group, just take the things to the next level. in october 2018, a group of activists, ann, good by political inaction on climate change declared themselves to be an open defiance of the u. k. government. they called themselves extinction. rebellion or x are for sure i'm doing the right amount is in place of the they work outside the system, engaging in bold, non violent acts of civil disobedience. this strategy is to create headline grabbing protests designed to maximize public exposure. they believe this will gain them a mass following and forced real change. in just 6 months, they have already expanded into 15 countries to spread across full continent. i'm at the london headquarters on the day of one of their most extreme actions. yet in a protest day, a cooling blood of all children exile plant, still 500 liters of fake blood on downing street office and residents of the british prime minister hiker. and i live in history, nice me one of x i was co founders is clare tiro waited. the idea of the blood of our children were already suffering a genocide because of the impacts of pollution. so we're trying of this action to get people to understand that it's that it kills people and that it kills people. now it's already killing people. it's not like something ahead in the future. a, as we make our way to downing street, i want to know why they're compelled to confront the political establishment in such a drastic way. we think it's important that our actions direct to that government because this only, i think a state lead a thought internationally that's going to make a meaningful change to the situation that we're in. so we're trying to represent the kind of visceral reality of death and suffering which climate change has already started to close around the world in which it will cause in the future. the procession is designed to feel like a funeral match. it comes to a stop and the crowd for silent this is the part of my children, my children, and are some people here. x r a, making a profound statement, just a stone's theory from the prime minister's office. we need to take action. we don't have much time left. please don't let this be the reality thing. i'm struck by the wrong emotion on the display. what is the political change, the extinction rebellion? what to say? what do you want to achieve by all of us? we do have 3 main demands. the 1st one is for the government to tell the truth, it's helped to communicate the crisis to the public. the 2nd demand is to reduce carbon emissions to net 0 by 2025. and then the 3rd demand, which i think is the main prizes to achieve structural political change in the form of the citizens assembly, ordinary people who are educated on the facts and then come together to talk about what might be the best straightforward. do you think it's the chief of all i think is necessary in x i want to become impossible to ignore. so its members are planning the biggest protest yet they hope to bring london to a standstill with a 2 week human blockade of the city streets. at exiles h key, i'm missing one of the chief coordinators of the shut down larch. maxie, what we're doing for with the rebellion is having a go up, causing the level of disruption that could bring about the government to me. ottomans, do you think that your risk of almost alienation yourself by crossing over into that legal category in this climate crisis? there's an ecological crisis. we're here to stop this. he can exist central threat . we face, we nonviolent training respect with putting ourselves on the lines, were risking our liberty. the plan is to block the streets of the case capitol with walls of people. they'll chain lock and even glue themselves to structures and to one another. these actions are deliberately planned to create maximum disruption and caused arrests. just lichtenstein trains members on how to deal with the police in a non violent way, can only have a activist who is willing to be arrested and carried off the lease. ma'am, in the middle, you're willing to gara said they're not going to make it easy for that members trained to go live as soon as they attached. or i was, they were gonna, we're going to rest. so it would take as many as 5 police officers to remove a single activist by maximizing the number of x are believe they can create publicity and a ground swell of support. ah, the only way food in the way they believe things are going to civilians and these kinds of actions. ah, ah, the 15th of april 2019 and in the morning of the london shut down, the organizes are expecting thousands of protesters. they plan to block london main street and bridges for 2 week bringing the city to a grinding. i'm meeting class, she proposed what could be the biggest demonstration of history and commit. thanks a feeling hopeful. i'm feeling hopeful that we're going to have more impact. and more people are going to understand the message and the seriousness of it. the reason why we have to do this is because it is bad. we do feel this afraid of ancient, don't know what else to say. extinction rebellions target is the government but the people who be hit hardest today on the everyday commuters as they try to get to work the tension, then the all of it can be constructed people might get to where they go into the action. how is that justifies we really sorry. we don't really want to do that, but we also don't want to pass on another planet simulation. we arrive at the 2nd at 8 30 am and only a handful of a head. we quickly get a taste of where public favour might lie. i'm not quite sure how the group succeed in blocking the very heart of london was the plan here because at the moment, right, isn't all spies. there's nothing on it. so what is going to happen? groups of people are going to close roads and then something should be arriving way out of the blue reinforcements arrive. oh, it's something i didn't expect in a hundreds of activists crowd around the bite on the london shut down has become a master of ours. 10000 supporters descend upon 5 sites. of course, the capital, oxford circus parliament square marble arch, piccadilly, circus, and worsley bridge manned by lots and his team. they have blocked the entire stretch of rage and trees, a music stage camps and a human being a i've managed to find locked status, notice police activity or it will do. i'm just watching them go. boy, coming in on what's been happening or we're just kind of monitoring the place. those numbers have increased slightly at some point that gonna be under pressure to clear the bridge on me. and what we've got to try and do is get them to build. question is, how much disruption will the government force us to create until they do the right thing and meet the demands and start to try and keep a site. and you're willing to lose your liberty for it and get arrested if people are willing to sacrifice the liberty, it sends a message to the public, to the media and to the guilt, the politicians that this is a serious issue. elsewhere, demonstrations are escalating as protest is target the largest oil and gas company in europe. shout. just run down to a site where rebel is have a good themselves and not themself up outside shall age fees. with regard to car, doctor lawyer, i mean linden at woodson. one of the lead demonstrate is here. tell me a little bit about why your hair show was nervous about the problem of climate change for over 30 years. and they all, one of the biggest, uh, bits is called in the water to like these acts of criminal damage or the catalyst for the police to make that 1st arrest. oh, need to hunt shell accountable with the atrocities, think human kind and well, natural. well, we've just seen to extinction. rebellion rebel has been taken away by police. i know some extra value getting exactly what they're after. 8 hours after the shut down began. please take action. citing section 14 of the public or the act which prepaids obstruction, the highway. ah, more than 1000 a residence and 30000 new recruits later with goring support of course, 33 countries. the u. k. government finally agrees to meet exxon on 1st of may. 2019. the house of commons makes history becoming the 1st national parliament in the world to declare a climate and ecological emergency. climate change. activism stretches back 50 years. april the 22nd 1917. so the launch of us day. 20000000 americans took to the streets on a modern environmental movement was born. in the eighty's, greenpeace took matters into their own hands. heading to the seas to battle the commercial dumping of toxic waste, nuclear testing and whale hunting. today, the movement has a new fig ahead and teenager gretta turned back. the older generation has failed tackling the biggest crisis humanity as of the face by going on school strike. she inspired 1400000 students and 112 countries to join her in a global walk house. the message has been clear for 50 years, but today the voices louder and more insistence than ever. oh, the cry change must happen. now. ah, non. the sun's eyes margin tina. nice midsummer's day was tempted. the way up again if you are a bit further know if you're in se brazil, paraguay you'll think some arrange a bit too much of it and you would be right. so also $35.00 given by a blanca, 13th century mo, like to be accompanied by thunderstorms and the same is true in rio. in fact, that line of thunderstorms stretches through brazil through bolivia and peru, and up towards western parts of columbia. where the downpours once again have been rather notable. and i think they will be in the forecast to dry looking picture in the bahamas. but look at that wind coming out of the u. s. and the temperature in the capitol. only 20 should be read about 2526 mock. so it's going to feel distinctly chilly. that's probably true in cuba, back through. good part of mexico's, well that's a cold outflow from the u. s. it enhance a few showers in i think hispaniola and we might see some bigger shows in the li, widows otherwise mostly a dry picture around the caribbean. and in the us, the land is fairly dry. as you can see, that cold air doesn't bring too much noise notes of from east and canada. lot of rain in nova scotia and lot of rain and snow once again in california and fat, all web city coast into b. c. ah. that was the time to be direct. there is a growing realization that rights can be taken away in this country to cut through the rhetoric. how can we resist this narrative and how dangerous and demand the truth? join me, mark them on hill for up front. what out there with me? this is al jazeera.
