00:00Mumbai and Kolkata are facing rising sea levels with a UN report warning that
00:05millions of people could be permanently displaced from their homes.
00:08Three of your biggest metropolitan cities, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, are vulnerable to rising sea levels.
00:15When sea levels rise, they simply swallow up the city. That's it. Finished. Game up.
00:19Or at least huge parts of the city will now be underwater. Run the city.
00:22North India, at least, there is some backup that the glaciers are massive.
00:27So the glaciers will take some time melting and till then the rivers will continue to flow.
00:33South India, the rivers depend not so much on ice but on rainfall.
00:37What happens when the rainfall patterns are disrupted?
00:40What will happen to all our South Indian rivers?
00:42Already you have had the two states fighting over Cauvery waters.
00:46The fight will be settled because there will be no water.
00:47If the future will have any history, then history will look at this period, the 21st century, with great astonishment.
00:55We, who inhibit this century, will be seen as utter idiots, caricatures in the name of human beings.
01:02And the future, if there is any, will ask us,
01:05How stupid could you be to not confront the facts, to keep denying the truth?
01:10If there is a future, the future will remember us.
01:13These were the idiots.
01:14Like, put out the two in the natural states.
01:14By chance.
