[00:00:02] Scoreline every weekend on TRT
[00:00:05] World.
[00:00:20] our main headlines. The Saudi Civil Aviation authority
[00:00:23] say that at least 12 people have been killed and more than 300 injured in
[00:00:27] the latest
[00:00:28] a attack on the King
[00:00:29] of Khalid in. national airport in Riad. The statement did not assign
[00:00:33] of blame. The strike on Riad's main airport was the third this week, and
[00:00:37] it's prompted US President Donald Trump to consider whether to join the
[00:00:41] of fight against the Ansarhouthis in
[00:00:45] of Yemen. The
[00:00:46] of UK's maritime organization say that it has received
[00:00:49] a report of fire on board an outbound tanker in the straight of Homus
[00:00:53] after it was struck by an unknown projectile. It comes after several
[00:00:56] ships anchored near Rasal Khama in the United Arab. Emirates, not
[00:01:00] far from the straight were instructed to leave. Earlier on Saturday,
[00:01:04] Iran's revolutionary guard said that a tanker transiting the waterway,
[00:01:08] along what it called an unauthorized route exploded after it hit a
[00:01:13] of mine. President Donald Trump says it's time for Ukraine to get
[00:01:17] new president. It follows criticism from his Ukrainian
[00:01:20] counterpart a US diesel deal
[00:01:23] of with Russia. Vladimir Zelensky warns the deal will only enable
[00:01:26] Russia's war.
[00:01:28] of The agreement expected to lead to the release. of 300
[00:01:31] thousand tons of Russian fuel to the US
[00:01:34] and global markets and it comes ahead of critical mid-term
[00:01:39] a elections. Zelinski could have settled this war many times, many,
[00:01:43] a many times and he cho he chooses not
[00:01:46] to, very difficult. We said you can do whatever you want to
[00:01:50] Russia, don't hit the refineries, because that's a world problem
[00:01:54] that's caused, and he wants to make problems for the world, he
[00:01:57] wants
[00:01:58] of to make problems for our farmers, ranches with diesel
[00:02:02] fuel. Fresh Israeli strikes have hit the
[00:02:06] Gaza strip on Saturday evening. Gaza City and Dar Albala
[00:02:09] are among the areas which have been targeted. Earlier Israeli attacks killed
[00:02:13] at least five Palestinians in Gaza City. More than
[00:02:17] 1,400
[00:02:18] of Palestinians me have been killed since the ceasefire took effect in October last
[00:02:22] year. In India, thousands of people have been
[00:02:26] detained after clashes broke out between protesters and police.
[00:02:30] During youth protests in the country's capital, they are demanding
[00:02:33] the resignation the country's election
[00:03:09] Hi there, I'm at the pre cup 31
[00:03:11] of meetings in Fiji where
[00:03:13] in stakeholders are trying to work through some
[00:03:14] of the more difficult issues ahead of Cop 31 which will be held
[00:03:18] in Turkia
[00:03:19] in a month's time, so first let's get to why we're
[00:03:22] here.
[00:03:29] The Pacific leaders. have
[00:03:31] in declared in that climate change is the most existential threat to the pacific at the
[00:03:34] moment, but from from my perspective,
[00:03:37] a it's climate change coupled with
[00:03:40] a biodiversity loss uh together with pollution, the
[00:03:44] coupling of all
[00:03:44] of these impacts are further exacerbating the impacts of climate change
[00:03:48] um on the pacific. can you get more specific when you talk about
[00:03:52] biodiversity loss? what are you referring to exactly? i am referring to
[00:03:56] the fact that you know anthropogenic uh
[00:04:00] impacts on biodiversity such as the overextraction of natural
[00:04:03] resources in in ways that are very unsustainable, a further
[00:04:07] contributing towards the loss of biodiversity and the loss of nature
[00:04:11] and that in in turn is impacting on
[00:04:15] the Pacific's
[00:04:16] in ability to respond
[00:04:18] of efficiently and effectively to the impacts of climate change, so for
[00:04:22] pacifical countries and for those at the classic
[00:04:25] level, nature is their best allied to addressing the climate
[00:04:28] impacts and and the ability of nature to be
[00:04:31] of able to provide those
[00:04:32] of ecosystem services for adaptation but as well as for mitigation
[00:04:36] is being threatened then that actually
[00:04:40] you know puts communities much more
[00:04:42] in vulnerable and more susceptible to the impacts of climate change. what do you
[00:04:46] think can actually be accomplished um at
[00:04:49] preecop as it pertains to
[00:04:52] um b loss, rising sea levels, all the
[00:04:56] issues that are being brought up here, what can be accomplished during these talks?
[00:05:00] I think pr actually
[00:05:02] provides um a blueprint or road map
[00:05:06] towards what the pacific would like to see um
[00:05:10] achieved um or taken to cup 31. um in
[00:05:13] Antalia, so I think uh
[00:05:15] here at Prikup not only just specific governments are here, but you
[00:05:19] have huge um
[00:05:23] uh uh plathor of delegates from civil society organizations, including
[00:05:27] community voices and representatives that are here, those that are here that will be able
[00:05:31] to travel to cop 31 and those who are here but won't be able to
[00:05:35] travel to cup 31 and everybody has been singing the same
[00:05:38] terms uh you know asking global leaders to to...
[00:05:42] sure that 1.5 degree stays alive uh in terms the decisions that are
[00:05:46] going to be adopted at cop um also to
[00:05:49] ensure can 1.5 degrees stay alive yeah to ensure that 1.5
[00:05:53] degrees um um the global target is maintained
[00:05:57] in terms the decisions that needs to be adopted at cop so
[00:06:01] if decisions needs to be adopted to be in line with the global target of
[00:06:05] maintaining 1.5 degrees and so that is actually
[00:06:08] important for pacific people um also the pacific is
[00:06:12] talking about the importance of recognizing that you cannot address
[00:06:16] climate without including oceans and ocean actions in that,
[00:06:20] so we see lot of uh of unified voices calling
[00:06:24] for a stronger outcome on oceans including the ocean
[00:06:27] climate nexus at cop 31 and i'm kind of glad that the pacific leaders have
[00:06:31] agreed and together with the the the turkey
[00:06:34] presidency has also agreed that cop 31 is
[00:06:38] actually going to be a blue cop uh the other things that cover the pacific
[00:06:42] and leaders are called for is the need for a just and
[00:06:46] efficient and accelerated transition away from fossil fuel and that is
[00:06:50] actually quite key because we really really need to work with
[00:06:54] the science which is telling us that we need to transition away from castle fuel
[00:06:58] but also ensuring that um while we
[00:07:01] transition away from fossil fuel we are also
[00:07:05] looking at what will be the road map in terms of um
[00:07:08] electrification uh and in terms of renewable energy? not
[00:07:12] just at the global level
[00:07:13] but for the pacific and how do we finance that um that road map
[00:07:17] for the pacific for that transition and also it's about
[00:07:21] time to be implementing we have right uh 20 this is
[00:07:25] 20 26 we have only few years left to get to
[00:07:28] 2030 uh and so cop 31 needs to be
[00:07:31] implementation cop so how do we translate all of those
[00:07:35] huge commitments that the leaders have already made and the decisions that needs to be
[00:07:39] adopted at cop31 to enforce and to you know
[00:07:42] provide the enabling conditions for implementation,
[00:07:45] you know, if cop 31 is called implementation cup, that was also what was called
[00:07:49] cop 30 in Brazil, that was also was called the copy
[00:07:52] for that, both implementation cup and the action corps, so we keep
[00:07:55] pushing this title further down as the years
[00:07:59] pass, but you did mention quite a bit agree of agreement at
[00:08:02] precop, which i think is quite positive, but as it comes to
[00:08:06] the how we implement um strategies to tackling
[00:08:10] the comic crisis, there is always lot of disagreement, where do you see
[00:08:14] disagreement at precop?
[00:08:17] um, i don't see lot of disagreement
[00:08:21] here at prop, because almost um the majority the participants here
[00:08:25] at prikup,
[00:08:25] i believe are from the pacific, and the pacific is speaking with the unified voice, but
[00:08:29] implementation, you have to look at it from a whole perspective,
[00:08:32] implementation requires technical support, requires science,
[00:08:36] requires uh uh technology and innovation,
[00:08:39] implementation also requires financing. um and those are the
[00:08:43] things that have been promised but not yet really delivered on the ground and
[00:08:47] so how do we ensure that we we go towards pre coup
[00:08:51] with clear idea as to where other road blocks
[00:08:55] are and how can we get the political will to try and
[00:08:59] address the road blocks to ensure that we are able to
[00:09:02] deliver um as promised under the you know and all
[00:09:06] the you the the the parties to the to the Paris agreement has agreed
[00:09:10] to under the you know to get to that one. 1.5
[00:09:13] degree. Now let's talk about money. Here in the Pacific
[00:09:16] communities already spending money uh moving their
[00:09:20] homes. They're spending money rebuilding after disasters, securing the
[00:09:24] island's coastlines and securing fresh water. And the argument
[00:09:27] here is about who should pay for all of that. A lot the wealthier
[00:09:31] countries, the countries that are contributing the most to carbon emissions are
[00:09:35] failing to meet their obligations under the law. Um, these are laws
[00:09:39] that were already passed and recognized earlier, but "the international court of
[00:09:43] justice advisory opinion reaffirms those obligations,
[00:09:47] obligations that states are failing to meet, so with our work now,
[00:09:51] now that we have the advisor opinion, we're trying to get people and states to
[00:09:54] recognize that they have an obligation to prevent climate harm, and also
[00:09:57] hopefully use that in our negotiations at pre cop and cop uh and to
[00:10:01] take polluting states to court if there is no avenues for reparations of
[00:10:05] justice, and i was just work for countries that do not recognize the
[00:10:08] ICJ, i think then that falls to individual states to..."
[00:10:12] to way out whether it's worth even having relations with these
[00:10:15] states um and to perhaps explore other avenues of
[00:10:19] negotiation or diplomacy that ensures that our people are being protected
[00:10:23] because at the moment ' um with the trajectory that we're on, we
[00:10:27] are not going to see justice for the countries that are contributing the least to
[00:10:30] these issues, but are struggling the most on the front
[00:10:33] lines,
[00:10:35] but a more basic level, why do you think a wealthy country would not
[00:10:39] want to help another financially? um, i think if
[00:10:43] you talk about wealth, it goes back to the conversation of colonialism and
[00:10:46] noolonialism. um, what we are seeing is
[00:10:50] states that have benefited from extraction, build
[00:10:53] themselves up financially, "and now they're so comfortable in their positions that
[00:10:57] they're refusing to recognize the responsibilities, so this is really a
[00:11:01] question of principle and whether we can rely on our partners and
[00:11:05] our states to uphold human rights
[00:11:08] and one the means being
[00:11:12] offered up as loans, so it's
[00:11:15] quite odd to ask a poor country that was not responsible for the
[00:11:19] climate crisis to to borrow money from the wealthier countries
[00:11:23] that were responsible." to
[00:11:27] finance their mitigation, adaptation, loss and I mean to fix
[00:11:31] stuff when things get broken of climate disaster, it seems very unfair.
[00:11:35] Yeah, so what the advisory opinion clarified was that states have
[00:11:39] a common but differentiated responsibility, larger politing states have the
[00:11:43] responsibility to fund the just transition, so ensure that there is
[00:11:46] funding for these um for these smaller states that haven't
[00:11:50] contributed so much, but also that they are part the first
[00:11:54] movement. into the just transition that they're moving away from fossil
[00:11:57] fuels. um, so the other thing that the advisor opinion also clarified was
[00:12:01] that states do not now have um
[00:12:05] voluntary obligation, it's requirement to fund
[00:12:09] these um these transitions, and so it's no longer a
[00:12:13] question of charity, it's a question of obligation, and if states fail to meet
[00:12:17] those obligations financially as well, that can be litigated against in
[00:12:21] international law. do you think that's part the issue that?
[00:12:25] welfare countries was seeing this as charity? very much
[00:12:29] so. mean, we've experienced so much colonialism and
[00:12:32] extraction where wealthier countries feel entitled to our
[00:12:36] resources and now refuse to give back to our people. we did
[00:12:40] not contribute to this issue. we do not create this issue, but we are the ones
[00:12:43] paying. and again, it comes back to the principle of it
[00:12:47] all, our states willing to uphold human
[00:12:49] rights at its core, or are they willing to
[00:12:53] look only inwards and be? in their approach to
[00:12:57] humanity. have you seen any positive discussions about crime
[00:13:00] of phen? i think we've seen
[00:13:04] lots of very progressive and
[00:13:07] optimistic conversations, but what it really relies on is action,
[00:13:11] so we need not just the conversation to be preaching to the choir, but for our
[00:13:15] states and our leaders to use those arguments in
[00:13:19] the negotiations at precop and cop and also to litigate against polluting
[00:13:23] states. um... "I think even without movement of young people, we've
[00:13:27] shown the world that there is movement towards justice, there is
[00:13:31] a transition away from that um status quo that
[00:13:35] doesn't serve our people, but we need our leaders to act on
[00:13:39] that uh on that momentum. I know the cop
[00:13:42] presidency, cop 31 presidency is talking about cop 31 being
[00:13:46] implementation cop, ironically few other cops before that were
[00:13:50] also called implementation cops, do you have any faith that cop 31 could actually
[00:13:54] move the needle a?" the one well a positive
[00:13:57] direction. i think with the advisory opinion
[00:14:00] now um passed as resolution at the united nations general
[00:14:04] assembly states have a stronger obligation to
[00:14:08] uphold and operationalize on it and so if we
[00:14:11] are going to call this implementation cop then we need to actually show
[00:14:15] that with the outcomes. um
[00:14:18] i think for the most part we've seen lots of ambitious
[00:14:22] language but we now need action on that. language and so
[00:14:26] if states want to call this the um implementation cop, we need to act
[00:14:30] on it and ensure that the outcomes reflect that, it's not just
[00:14:34] words, they're actions, but do you expect that to happen?
[00:14:38] hope so. um, guess it really
[00:14:42] just depends on whether our states are hearing us and will they push for that
[00:14:45] agenda. do you feel heard? to an
[00:14:48] extent. to what extent do you not feel
[00:14:51] heard? um... This
[00:14:55] is heavy question, I think states
[00:14:59] are worldwide failing to meet their obligations regarding
[00:15:03] human rights, and so we need to find the
[00:15:06] baseline for what we want for our people and for our
[00:15:10] futures, remember that we are borrowing from the future generations, not just
[00:15:14] from those that currently exist, and so in
[00:15:17] every conversation remind ourselves that it's the
[00:15:21] future generation that we are fighting for. on this earth will be
[00:15:25] very limited and we might not see the worst of climate change, but
[00:15:29] it is
[00:15:29] the next generation who we are borrowing for that needs us to advocate
[00:15:33] for them and us to protect them from
[00:15:36] the from the harms that we have created. so I don't know how to
[00:15:40] answer whether we've been hurt or not, I feel like we've been platformed enough,
[00:15:44] we've been tokenized enough, it's time to change that into
[00:15:48] action. And lastly, um, if Cop 31 does not
[00:15:52] deliver, Fiji is already
[00:15:55] seeing less rainfall with the
[00:15:59] rainy season starting in November. Il nino is going to make
[00:16:03] things drastically worse. What do you expect Fiji and the rest
[00:16:06] the Pacific? islands to look like in
[00:16:08] 2027? um,
[00:16:12] yeah, i think the Pacific is already preparing itself for the worst
[00:16:16] case scenarios. um, the science has um affirmed that we
[00:16:20] are set for overshoot, we're going to breach 1.5,
[00:16:24] ironically your show is cold 2 degrees, but we are fighting for 1.5
[00:16:28] because that is the legal red line uh, and the scientific red line, and
[00:16:31] so we're hoping financially that states will recognize
[00:16:35] that they have an obligation. whether you look
[00:16:38] at the law or you just look at humanity and its principles,
[00:16:42] there is need for financing our people, for financing our futures and
[00:16:46] ensuring that we are not going to drown, that we keep fighting, that
[00:16:50] is the mantra the pacific, we are not drowning, we are fighting, um,
[00:16:54] and we hope that our allies, states that care for us, states
[00:16:57] that are in these conversations and negotiations, remember that
[00:17:01] there are real people behind these um statistics and numbers, it's the work
[00:17:05] that we do with the witness stand as well, trying to... publicize that human rights
[00:17:09] aspect of it and the human face of climate change,
[00:17:12] so my hope and what we are going to continue fighting for is that
[00:17:16] states will fund us, will remember that it's not
[00:17:19] charity, it's
[00:17:21] not an, it's not a voluntary move, this is an
[00:17:24] obligation, meanwile you've probably heard 1.5
[00:17:28] degrees, well hundreds of times to cate 1.5 degrees
[00:17:32] 1.5 degree celsius limit, 1.5 degree, keeping
[00:17:35] 1.5 in reach to Well
[00:17:39] here in the Pacific people don't talk about it as though it's just another number
[00:17:43] here, they're talking about whether their homes remain habitable,
[00:17:47] whether fresh water becomes salty, whether coral reefs
[00:17:50] survive and ultimately whether some communities can stay where they
[00:17:54] are. Give a sense the unique challenges that you, your
[00:17:58] group, your region, your neighborhood, your area, your district
[00:18:01] faces, as it's also being led fully by
[00:18:04] women, climate change and its impact.
[00:18:07] is um the biggest challenge that we
[00:18:10] face
[00:18:11] uh uh in our daily lives in the village, you name it
[00:18:15] rising sea level um
[00:18:18] our
[00:18:20] um um our uh the salt
[00:18:24] water is reaching our gardens and um you
[00:18:28] know as mother our foods our crops are growing
[00:18:32] smaller every day so our food security is
[00:18:36] also affect. and not only
[00:18:39] that um also we
[00:18:41] watch um uh grave sides
[00:18:45] of our ancestors being washed away right in front of us, so
[00:18:49] these are the challenges we face uh nearly every single day
[00:18:53] in the villages, the united nations environmental program just recently talked
[00:18:57] about us probably breaching 1.5, what do
[00:19:01] you think that means for your community for my
[00:19:04] communities? our
[00:19:08] people, the women and the children of Nadula,
[00:19:12] 1.5 degree is our
[00:19:15] lifeline, it is not
[00:19:18] negotiable, we cannot go beyond 1.5
[00:19:22] degree, um, like even
[00:19:26] right now, fish are harder to find,
[00:19:30] so if we go beyond 1.5, what, what
[00:19:34] will it mean for our people, what it, what will it mean for?
[00:19:37] fish fishermen who go out to see every day,
[00:19:41] even right now it's hard to find fish, yeah,
[00:19:45] i was speaking with with village leader just
[00:19:48] yesterday, and she was talking
[00:19:52] about um, yes,
[00:19:56] the globe is getting hotter and normally it rains, the rainy season
[00:19:59] starts in November, but over the past months, year you've been
[00:20:03] seeing lot less rain, and you guys uh can actually...
[00:20:07] tell when the rain is coming when a storm is coming because the bread
[00:20:10] fruit they get bigger on the trees so
[00:20:14] less rain less water means what for you if you rely so much on
[00:20:18] agriculture as well as fish
[00:20:21] so um i'm blessed
[00:20:24] to live with um to
[00:20:28] live with elders who have taught us to live through the
[00:20:32] hardest times of our lives and i am
[00:20:36] also blessed that my communities are made up of resilient
[00:20:39] people, so what does that mean? for
[00:20:43] me, being resilient in our
[00:20:45] communities when hurricanes, mean
[00:20:49] there's islands is known for the the cyclone pathway to
[00:20:53] fiji, that is what our islands are known for, so
[00:20:57] whatever cops that we we grow at home, they are resilliant
[00:21:00] crops, you name it, jams,
[00:21:04] kumala,
[00:21:05] you know, and even right, even
[00:21:08] now the the traditional science that show
[00:21:12] us disasters, it is not it is not
[00:21:16] it is not the actual science anymore.
[00:21:20] like climate is changing, also the
[00:21:24] signs are changing, take it for example, during cyclone
[00:21:27] wins them, it was something big for fiji, mean the strength
[00:21:31] the cyclone was bigger, so our children
[00:21:35] came back home, it was no more fruiting of bread fruit
[00:21:39] trees, so our children came back home with abundance of
[00:21:43] catch in crabs in small fish,
[00:21:46] nature was trying to show a science that something new
[00:21:50] and bigger was coming, but we were not tuning ourselves
[00:21:54] into the traditional science, so when when the big
[00:21:58] cyclone went pass, i then taught my children,
[00:22:02] so these are the new signs that is coming that we are supposed to adapt
[00:22:05] ourselves, and also elders are
[00:22:09] teaching us that the the netting
[00:22:13] the balolo was showing us something different, so it was
[00:22:16] growing more brown, darker brown and "and
[00:22:20] that was also signs of bigger cyclones and
[00:22:24] so what I'm trying to say here is we
[00:22:28] live now an era where
[00:22:30] our people are actually thought
[00:22:34] to fit ourselves to the changes that is
[00:22:38] happening, so for drying water sources, I mean prolongeng
[00:22:42] routs, drying water sources we are also
[00:22:45] taught to to
[00:22:49] expand our..." water storage containers and fill
[00:22:53] up water during the rainy season so that it can take us
[00:22:57] through during the dry season that there are different other
[00:23:00] areas no longer we find a nut tree so before
[00:23:04] when we see a line of nut trees so this is where we can find
[00:23:08] water nowadays that sign is no longer
[00:23:11] there now there are new signs that showing us that there
[00:23:15] is presence of water it's
[00:23:19] really. found because you know in
[00:23:23] developed countries the government has reservoirs in charge in
[00:23:27] charge of storing water for the entire country and communities throughout the
[00:23:31] country, but in smaller countries, small island states, you have to
[00:23:35] store water yourself when it's rainy during the rainy season
[00:23:39] for it to last during the dry season, that's becoming more challenging because you
[00:23:43] have no idea how long the driciism will last when it comes, do you think
[00:23:46] do you feel as though your government is doing enough to tack? to what you're
[00:23:50] going through, government is doing what they can
[00:23:54] do, um,
[00:23:56] i know honestly it
[00:24:00] may be not enough, but i believe a
[00:24:03] community that is intact and we believe in
[00:24:07] working together, that has been taught to us by our
[00:24:10] forefathers
[00:24:11] that everything is done together as a community, so for
[00:24:15] storage we have our traditional way of storage of
[00:24:19] storing. water in our villages, so
[00:24:23] you know we dig those um those um
[00:24:26] those deep holes along the along the
[00:24:30] coast where the are stones so you'll see
[00:24:33] our the youths in our villages are cracking all those
[00:24:37] big stones so that the is water storage there so when you go
[00:24:41] out to to do your farming your
[00:24:45] scaling of fish is everything is done in the sea and then when you
[00:24:48] come up to the land, your water is already
[00:24:52] stored there, so you know we we have our own
[00:24:56] ways of doing things, that was being taught to us by our
[00:25:00] elders, so you know that is what i meant when i
[00:25:04] said when i actually said to live a resilent
[00:25:07] community, because it was being taught to us by our
[00:25:11] forefathers that to live through the
[00:25:14] world disasters of our lives in the villages, i
[00:25:18] think that's really what people mean when we talk about the knowledge the
[00:25:22] indigenous people and it passing through the generations, they have all these
[00:25:26] solutions already. um, i saw you get pretty emotional,
[00:25:29] not very emotional, emotional when you're talking about the future and
[00:25:33] protecting it for your children, why? obviously that's very important for you and
[00:25:37] very big motivating factor, that is
[00:25:40] something in the history of my advocacy work, when it
[00:25:44] comes to talking about my people and my children, it
[00:25:48] really hits me to the heart.
[00:25:51] because my whole
[00:25:54] entire life i have been doing things for my people
[00:25:58] and
[00:26:00] uh you know and what i've seen seen in when
[00:26:04] years go by, when i talk
[00:26:07] about my people, when when my intentions
[00:26:10] is very general, talking about my people, this is also
[00:26:14] where
[00:26:15] i see you know opening of funding opportunities
[00:26:17] that come to my
[00:26:19] island homes, it's because
[00:26:20] we are doing things for the right reason, and then i'm so
[00:26:24] blessed that when i keep you know when we
[00:26:28] talk about the climate crisis, the halting of climate crisis.
[00:26:33] sometimes i go back home and wonder you know
[00:26:36] did the leaders hear what i
[00:26:39] said
[00:26:41] you know keep coming back and challenging world leaders of what we go through
[00:26:45] at home and then back at
[00:26:48] home we don't know what climate
[00:26:51] finances you know back at home my
[00:26:55] children i will only tell my children
[00:26:58] that um the pacific nations look up to Australia is the mother.
[00:27:02] to the pacific nations, and I will only tell my
[00:27:06] people that the Australian government is there at our door
[00:27:09] step, if they are supplying water tanks to every, I mean
[00:27:13] to every households in the village, we hear so much about climate
[00:27:17] finance, we hear so much about climate
[00:27:20] adaptation, my children don't know what finance
[00:27:23] is, all they know is
[00:27:25] implementation, and that's a
[00:27:29] show, well there is real purpose here at pr. It obviously
[00:27:33] can't solve the climate crisis in Fiji or across the planet, but it does
[00:27:37] have the potential to make it lot more difficult for governments to
[00:27:41] come to Cup 31 in Turkia in November, pretending that they
[00:27:44] don't already know what's it take, so until next
[00:27:48] time,
[00:27:49] bye.
