00:00I'm from Nepal and I lived there for my childhood, 18 years I spent there in the Himalayas.
00:07My whole country is responsible for about 0.1% of the world emission.
00:13So the people who died had emitted almost nothing.
00:17Carbon footprint of the average Nepali citizen is not even one metric ton per year.
00:25The global average is close to 3-4 tons.
00:29Whereas the emission levels of the average American are 12, 14, 15 and when you go to the Gulf country,
00:36that is 20 plus metric tons a year.
00:39So why are the poor Nepali and the poor Indians suffering when the emissions are being done by somebody else?
00:46The emissions might be coming from Canada, from US, from any place, Australia, UK.
00:54The worst affected region is going to be the Indian subcontinent.
00:59Take this to its logical extreme and tell me why must animals suffer?
01:06Their carbon footprint is close to zero.
01:09Less than even the poorest human being.
01:12Why must animals suffer so much and animals are going to suffer the most?
01:15This is Climate Injustice.
