1
00:59:58.595 --> 01:00:01.180
Climate change is here now.

2
01:00:01.180 --> 01:00:03.099
Floods. Droughts.

3
01:00:03.099 --> 01:00:04.934
Once in a century, storms.

4
01:00:04.934 --> 01:00:08.271
And the frustrating part for me
as a climatologist is

5
01:00:08.354 --> 01:00:10.315
that this could all have been avoided.

6
01:00:10.315 --> 01:00:12.233
Scientific consensus is clear.

7
01:00:12.233 --> 01:00:14.360
There is a way to reverse course.

8
01:00:14.360 --> 01:00:17.614
And that is for Swedish
climate activist Greta Thunberg

9
01:00:17.697 --> 01:00:22.535
to try a little harder.

10
01:00:22.619 --> 01:00:25.371
People get caught up in
altering their personal habits

11
01:00:25.371 --> 01:00:29.208
by driving less or eating less meat.

12
01:00:29.292 --> 01:00:32.670
But the reality is
this is all in Greta's hands.

13
01:00:32.754 --> 01:00:34.631
She could give our children
and inhabitable

14
01:00:34.631 --> 01:00:38.259
earth instead of a scorched hellscape
if she just cared

15
01:00:38.426 --> 01:00:41.846
30 to 40% more
about the fate of our planet.

16
01:00:41.929 --> 01:00:44.015
But she doesn't.

17
01:00:44.015 --> 01:00:46.392
I guess because she's lazy.

18
01:00:46.392 --> 01:00:46.934
Sure.

19
01:00:46.934 --> 01:00:50.938
She rode that yacht across the Atlantic
to raise awareness about the environment,

20
01:00:50.980 --> 01:00:5.000
