Is banning a Climate Change debate as your party and is it making it difficult for your party to campaign or is this just another attempt at destroying Bernie Sanders who used to work with how i will say that d. N. C. Would do everything in their power to take down any progress especially since youll see more and things that its making a hard for young people to get out here actually run as the money king is that the d. N. C. Make sure its specially the trickle seat make sure that you have to meet a current tyria raising funds before they even Pay Attention to your race or you have to mobilize a certain number of people are you have to develop their virus and station yourselves but we like to tell our freedom here in the United States but Climate Change is freedom to our world is freedom our health is freedom our hope is freedom its not just the word its not just a word that we can just spread around and i think the seeds for getting but we still have several president ial candidates still taking money from the fossil fuel industry yet there joe biden who is caught. At a fossil fuel fundraiser is still touted as the favorite to lead your party into the 20 tony president ial Campaign Even is better than burgers its new york joe biden i was one of those people d beginning of the year i was waiting for joe biden to announce because i was on the board anybody who works under president obama should be our next president of the United States but actually being a candidate and being a bernie bro campaigning its a different story he doesnt speak to the American People anymore he doesnt he doesnt see a city more at times of spin i have eaten dinner with the Vice President and he uses the same line over its basically. Everyone loves him thats not telling us what we can do to help change our country were looking at civil war d among ourselves one of the things about the d. N. C. Is they care about seat the when it comes to their voters they care about the majority more than they care about the issues and one of the thats what were running for us where we see a lot of democratic socialists and democratic progress thats out there running these fights to break down the Democratic Leaders because we love our party but we feel like it should go into a mom im more progressive its. Instead of a more moderate that because moderations just hasnt worked in america but the past 150 years its time for us to overhaul our entire political system and change it and thats the only way we can see change in our own party so why does the d. N. C. Still think like that we know from wiki leaks how the d. N. C. Tried to destroy Bernie Sanders and we know that trump certainly doesnt go over the safe angle and he wins so why would they still be urging caution about being progressive or or socialist. Its our southern democrats its an area democrats is the ones that you find in the southeast. Where a majority of africanamericans or joe biden even said so that in order to an africanamerican transforming killing is to get rid of donald trump but as we told the Vice President is that treats women was already being killed when obama was in office so it has nothing to do it donald trump in a lot of these issues dont donald trump it just putting a i didnt sensation on these issues where we are now paying more attention to it because its him when some of these issues are already in place and didnt see its been blanket over the past 20 plus years because were still coming out the obama effect especially in my community in the should not be there in my opinion we need to have to bernie effect trump. Has fired his pro Israel National security adviser you probably know when youre working to organize for Bernie Sanders how popular the and he wore ticket was trump arguably was one on and you want to take it do you think trump understands the popularity of being against a war on iran or any other country just as presumably you do on the doorstep i dont think trump understands anything your thinking understands itself or what he says 3 oclock in the morning when a tweet comes out so i think our president s that they just president im not going to lie hes a racist hes a dictator and the sec now that were looking into going into a war with iran and our own party is not saying anything about it and were focusing on the wrong issues here our party is allowing this to happen the d. N. C. Yes they are allowing this to happen just as much as the g. O. P. Is allowed to happen weve been calling for impeachment on the president the United States for the past 2 years and still Nothing Happened done its time for change white has probably deny trump a they cater or indeed a racist but a larger value thank you well as progressive can it. Should the u. S. Wage war in the name of the Green New Deal here in the u. K. The shutting down of parliament arguably means even less will be done to save the 10s of thousands of die prematurely every year because of toxic air pollution but thanks to a new website we can all find out our chances of premature death and even how it could destroy the Housing Market joining me is the creator of address pollution dot org humphrey males are very welcome to going underground the pollution where i live is greatly exceeds legal limit. Why going to die were all going to die its a question of what we can do to minimize the risk of things between them that are going to do us harm i guess and the point of the tour weve created is to show people and so 1st lets make this invisible problem visible to people london is an incredibly polluted city and more importantly give people very valuable information that in some cases can save lives people who might be considering buying a property with a young family they might want to go and check the pollution rating of the property they think youre buying youre taking these levels in terms of premature death and you actually tried to bring it also to the idea of that great idea of capitalism property itself anyone to give buying a house is in danger of buying buying a pup because you explain if i buy flat or that i own it it says clearly. 20 percent the price should be lowered because of the lethality of the pollution around it we did some independent research on londoners who own houses and least we asked them questions like if you found out that a property was in breach of the World Health Organization legal limit which is 400. 00 micrograms per cubic meter of motion darkseid would you want every fund as you might do if you suddenly found out that there was asbestosis in the building we also know pollution is carcinogenic there when i say levels of this and because there has not been one single government funded Awareness Campaign on this issue it its not a consideration to people when theyre thinking about buying houses because its an invisible project problem for a lot of people. Namely u. K. Government a lot of councils on to me about it they just kind of getting away with not doing anything about this were giving them another reason to want to do something about this this toxic problem that is affecting all of us and i know that you so youll be the lead visible visible but i dont know youve been talking about the fact that usually the. This is the job of government yeah but in fact the government has shut down the kind of institution that might be there and has about this ality it has c. O. I. Which center of information was shut down and in december 2011 it was the Government Agency that commissioned all those old awareness ads like the green cross code may be sharers he cut the basics they did it was shut down after the Coalition Government came in in 2011 on the basis of the liberal democrat conservative government yeah lets shut down our source of government and shut down the source of good information to you know to people on the basis that it was too costly wasteful and it didnt fit with the new liberal kind of doctrine which is reduce government and stop you know meddling in Public Affairs but what we found is that now theyre in information environment is just flooded with quote you know commercial and corporate interests and some of it is a list of the johnson government britain is battling new diesel and petrol vehicles for 24 together drazen may 24th and. 8 we have a Climate Crisis 1st 2040 is well past the 12 years the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has given us to to do something about this problem which is over alliance on fossil fuels this pollution thing which is is the same problem you know the pollution is the same its all about were burning petrol and diesel Boris Johnson himself while palm just shut down when he was mayor of london he was accused of burying a reporter and talks a gerund and loss in a way deprived schools hes got form i think in kind of denying the evidence and denying stats i think when someone confronted him with the fact that Oxford Street was the most. Polluted street on the planet in terms of like notched and knocks gases his response was basically said it wasnt true. And it was found to be true it was it was tested it was found to be the most polluted city on the on earth and so when it comes to you know asking for. For facts and evidence on this issue i wouldnt go to Boris Johnson to ask for you know for a clear a clear understanding of how of how problematic at work 60 is what weve done as an organization as we talk to scientists and look at what what theyre saying Royal College of physicians who wrote reports in 2016 called every breath we take which states that its costing it has one in 20000000000 which is about 50 years and your budget in related health costs finally then but if 1. 00 doesnt go to fossil fuel sponsored cultural events joins the Global Climate strike which on right now all you can do is go to your website and just realize youre going to know ive not been and i would urge you to go and check your writing and we should demand change and thats exactly what this website is designed to do. You can sign our petition to bring the band the petrol diesel power forward. To 2030 which are big one would be u. K. Government shifting all subsidies of the oil industry which is about 10 of 1000000000 pounds per year on to Clean Energy Clean transport changing the infrastructure in every city across the country so we can all get around. Without polluting the air and without breathing this toxic stuff because it is killing us come from mills thank you thank you very much after the break we asked Extinction Rebellion of even gratified by a global protest can stand up to the power of multinational fossil fuel companies all the more coming to the going underground. But if she warned you and i do the dishes at the bus more than most. Of the speech and see me. As and about that when you. Mean yes i mean that is or that in fact involved. A lot of people see sawing as it fights about. Most schools. But as in the adams to me as if. The. Cabinet days doing. A. New human included. Was at the. At the bank. Welcome back of us off we heard from those fighting Climate Change in the u. S. And u. K. That is around the world right now the Global Climate strike encourages people to leave work and to march against the system prioritizing profits over people joining me is jim jones from mixing. In one of the organizations leading the charge to thanks for coming on so what is this week long strike action for the environment so its lots of different organizations who are all encouraging people to walk out of their jobs to walk out of schools and to make their voices heard influence policymakers to take some action which has been completely lacking for decades now to really engage with the climate an ecological emergency were in now and think stiction rebellion are part of this you must have noticed that in Mainstream Media a lot of the coverage is rather that there are children being exploited in this in these days of action for the environment and whether theres a whole debate ongoing with the children should be involved that no you have as a teacher particularly think its important to children are involved yeah absolutely the rebellion and the movement separate organizations thats a student led student organize group and they are incredible but they do it because they they care and its theyre not in any way influenced by by adults or any other organizations. Within Extinction Rebellion and as a teacher and i coordinate the educational aspect of what we do we think its the most urgent thing is at least the very least we should tell students the reality of whats happening in schools and then let them decide what they want to do about that at the moment you can go through the whole school into the National Curriculum 10000 lessons you know you 10 of those lessons you might hear about Climate Change even mentioned so it is a complete absence of meaningful education thats happening you mean a teacher who took a group of students to see an art gallery sponsored by b. P. Wouldnt be told about. What they would look at both so as not on the National Curriculum thats that wouldnt have to happen yeah they would be going so they were going to be peace pointed out gallery i dont know what that teaches children i think that gives them the perfect message of dissonance about the fact that we are running into a good thing so you argue for be peace. This is just absolutely no absolute you know ill go to you also about. The importance of education in terms of you just said 16 to 17 year olds with the youth groups they dont have the vote absolutely they also campaigning for votes at 16 like the British Labor board they probably should yeah but there are so many things we need to change about society there are so many systemic thing problems about the way we operate but children who are going to leave the country at least to this problem and theyre going to suffer most because theyre the ones who are going to be growing up when theyre young adult lives to experience the things that are were already seeing happening now around the world they need to have some way of expressing their voice and this is how theyre doing it you see one of the most influential near liberal think tanks arguably selfstyled. Jewel but they have got laws change they claim your group Extinction Rebellion has a subversive agenda its rooted in political extremism eco socialism capitalist environmentalist yeah so the 1st thing ses policy exchanges are is a think tank you have they dont declare their funding so we can guess where their funding comes from comes we can assume from big business you have a vested interest in not changing the system we need system change the i. P. C. C. Has said we need radical change across the board so of course these people are going to be saying whatever they can to undermine our organization were a nonpolitical Movement People within the organization do have political views but we are one of our key messages is that we are beyond policy probably beyond politics off that demand is going to Citizens Assembly so we are democracy is at the root of everything that were doing real democracy not voting up to a vote every 5 years after being fed lies from a biased media thats not democracy democracy is active engagement thats what were concerned via mentalism can be procapitalist. It could be i mean again thats that but thats where it becomes a political conversation were not saying that we have all the answers i personally think that the current form of capitalism is a really big part of the problem thats whats killing the planet and we need to change that were not saying that we havent come up with a. Manifesto for what we want the future to be like thats not just a little part of the problem and what brought of the problem was with occupy and other movements or is that an asset so you can bring the widest number of people to your demonstrations the difference between us and occupy is that we have 3 specific demands the 1st one is to tell the truth and thats a big part of why i care about as a teacher that we inform that the government needs to inform the public and use the media to inform the public use the Education System to inform the public of the reality of climate breakdown was our 2nd demand is that we want radical ambitious reductions in in our emissions so we we say 2025 to be at net 0 most people would say ah thats thats only 6 years away its impossible in the 2nd world war in 6 years we we completely transformed our whole Global Economy we turned into a war machine michael mann whos a leading climate scientist at Penn State University he said we need that kind of effort is what we need now so its difficult but its not impossible and thats what we need to achieve and i 3rd demand as i mentioned before is a Citizens Assembly so having a large group of people from the general public to come in to learn about the crisis and then inform the government about what they want to do is work in ireland with the abortion and gay rights gay marriage issues and it could work if you see the gove
