life at 50 degrees. when i was growing up, my grandmother used to tell me that we lived here forever. there is this collective conscious knowledge that is handed down from generation to generation. what you do to the land, you do to yourselves. that is how i was raised. but since a child i have seen changes in ecosystems, i have seen less water, i have seen the trees are struggling with drought and heat anxiety. if you abuse the land, climate change is a logical consequence. this weekend, temperature records _ this weekend, temperature records could be shattered across _ records could be shattered across the province. a new all-time — across the province. a new all-time record _ across the province. a new all-time record of -

"i am not going to continue the status quo". we need to leave the fossil fuels on the ground. we need to invest in homes that are designed to be cool in the summer, stay warm in the winter. i am summer, stay warm in the winter. iam not summer, stay warm in the winter. i am not scared of what's coming. at the moment, the sun is setting on lytton. but tomorrow the sun will rise on lytton. is it hot? it is so hot. we came to iraq to fill —— on the story of this farmer who does make area has been affected by climate change and extreme heat. filming this scene, i couldn't believe the temperature i was recording. the ground temperature was upwards of 60 degrees. it was like breathing in a sauna. you feel trapped. this year has been a very bad yearfor them. they this year has been a very bad year for them. they have this year has been a very bad yearfor them. they have been farming, and unfortunately for them didn't turn out to be a very good year. and as a result, a of people are trying to migrate from this place. but it is a really tough condition to work. i don't think i have ever worked, to work. i don't think i have everworked, or to work. i don't think i have ever worked, or witnessed 55 degrees. even for me as an iraqi, i am used to high temperatures, this isjust too much. i grew igrew up i grew up in iraq, so i thought i grew up in iraq, so i thought iwas i grew up in iraq, so i thought i was prepared. but in recent years, the weather has changed a lot. it's hot, very hot. the camera is asking me to stop recording. i camera is asking me to stop recording-— camera is asking me to stop recordinu. ,, , ., ., recording. i think you need to ut it in recording. i think you need to put it in the — recording. i think you need to put it in the car? _ recording. i think you need to put it in the car? yeah. -
