00:00:02:05 - 00:00:03:22
– Well yeah.

00:00:03:22 - 00:00:05:08
Here we go.

00:00:05:08 - 00:00:06:21
Doing it. 

00:00:19:12 - 00:00:21:06
The whole system from the top down,

00:00:21:06 - 00:00:24:14
the world leaders, the CEOs,
the lobbyists, the media,

00:00:25:03 - 00:00:28:21
it's all corrupted by the most powerful
industry on the planet,

00:00:28:23 - 00:00:30:19
which is the fossil fuel industry.

00:00:30:19 - 00:00:35:01
And they've made it very clear
over the decades that they are not going

00:00:35:01 - 00:00:38:01
to voluntarily
take action on climate change.

00:00:39:16 - 00:00:41:12
It feels disgusting to me
to burn fossil fuels,

00:00:41:12 - 00:00:44:12
so I try not to do it, I hate it.

00:00:44:14 - 00:00:46:08
But the system has to change.

00:00:46:08 - 00:00:50:09
You know, I'm not going to just like,
stop using a computer, give up my job.

00:00:50:10 - 00:00:53:03
You know?

00:00:53:03 - 00:00:55:05
Me, like, going to live in a cave,

00:00:55:05 - 00:00:57:12
how would that solve Earth breakdown?

00:00:57:12 - 00:01:00:12
That's not going to solve anything.

00:01:02:11 - 00:01:03:01
After many,

00:01:03:01 - 00:01:06:02
many years of trying to do
everything I can think of

00:01:06:13 - 00:01:09:05
to make a difference
and to have some social impact.

00:01:10:08 - 00:01:11:17
Founding climate apps.

00:01:11:17 - 00:01:14:13
Writing a book, writing tons of articles.

00:01:14:13 - 00:01:18:03
Switching my fucking career
from astrophysics to earth science.

00:01:18:13 - 00:01:23:05
None of it has worked
because it's all about power structures.

00:01:23:17 - 00:01:26:13
– The CEOs of the world's
biggest oil companies appeared

00:01:26:13 - 00:01:28:07
before a congressional committee.

00:01:28:07 - 00:01:31:07
– Mr. Wirth, 
are you embarrassed as an American company

00:01:31:07 - 00:01:34:20
that your production is going up while
the European counterparts are going down?

00:01:34:20 - 00:01:37:11
– Congressman, demand for energy
is going up in the world.

00:01:37:11 - 00:01:38:19
– Okay, so you're not embarrassed.

00:01:38:19 - 00:01:44:19
– We can't wait for the rich and
powerful people to stop climate breakdown.

00:01:45:04 - 00:01:46:11
– We're hitting on all cylinders.

00:01:46:11 - 00:01:49:08
We're, you know, we raised our dividend.
We're investing to grow.

00:01:49:08 - 00:01:51:21
Last year
was our largest U.S. production ever.

00:01:51:21 - 00:01:54:22
– We prioritize exponential economic growth

00:01:55:11 - 00:01:58:11
and the accumulation of capital
for the wealthiest,

00:01:58:21 - 00:02:01:11
above an economic system

00:02:01:11 - 00:02:05:17
that, is about human flourishing and works
for everyone and works for the planet.

00:02:05:22 - 00:02:06:18
– No surprise here,

00:02:06:18 - 00:02:10:16
the world's largest oil companies
crushed analyst expectations.

00:02:10:17 - 00:02:13:01
I feel like every quarter we're saying,
are we at peak oil?

00:02:13:01 - 00:02:15:10
And here we are
talking about record profits again.

00:02:15:10 - 00:02:20:07
– The fossil fuel industry is the primary
cause of global heating right now.

00:02:20:09 - 00:02:24:12
So we need to stop subsidizing
the industry and to stop expanding.

00:02:24:19 - 00:02:28:08
– The Biden administration
has officially approved a controversial

00:02:28:08 - 00:02:31:11
oil drilling
project in Alaska known as Willow.

00:02:31:11 - 00:02:35:13
It's expected to produce
some 600 million barrels of crude oil

00:02:35:13 - 00:02:37:04
over the next three decades.

00:02:37:04 - 00:02:42:07
– I will end Kamala's war on American
energy, and we will drill, baby, drill.

00:02:42:07 - 00:02:43:21
We're going to drill, baby drill.

00:02:44:21 - 00:02:46:22
– The stuff that we do today

00:02:46:22 - 00:02:50:01
locks in death
and suffering in the future.

00:02:50:08 - 00:02:53:08
It increases
the risk of civilizational collapse.

00:02:58:13 - 00:03:02:02
– The scientists are
the ones who have this knowledge

00:03:02:02 - 00:03:05:21
of what's happening to our planet
right now, and what the implications

00:03:05:21 - 00:03:09:06
are going to be for humanity
in the coming years and decades.

00:03:09:18 - 00:03:11:10
We’re the experts on that.

00:03:11:10 - 00:03:15:13
And if we keep acting like there's
no problem, you know, just calmly

00:03:15:13 - 00:03:19:19
writing papers and showing graphs,
the public isn't going to get the message.

00:03:22:03 - 00:03:25:03
– We're so going into the unknown now,

00:03:25:07 - 00:03:28:07
that I don't...

00:03:32:17 - 00:03:37:05
– If climate scientists aren’t freaking out
and showing it through their actions,

00:03:37:11 - 00:03:40:04
that's a barrier to change.

00:03:40:04 - 00:03:42:03
– Climate change is now intensifying.

00:03:42:03 - 00:03:44:01
That is according to a devastating report

00:03:44:01 - 00:03:47:05
by the UN's Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change, which warns

00:03:47:13 - 00:03:50:21
that many human caused effects
are now in irreversible.

00:03:51:01 - 00:03:55:08
– The UN secretary general called the report
a code red for humanity.

00:03:55:12 - 00:03:59:07
The alarm bells are deafening
and the evidence is irrefutable.

00:04:00:09 - 00:04:01:18
– This action comes two days

00:04:01:18 - 00:04:05:03
after the release of the IPCC
Working Group Three report,

00:04:05:16 - 00:04:08:16
which I thought very clearly stated

00:04:09:05 - 00:04:11:21
that if we don't immediately

00:04:11:21 - 00:04:14:21
ramp down fossil fuels
starting now, we're basically fucked.

00:04:15:07 - 00:04:18:07
– And this finding comes
as the UN says that efforts by government

00:04:18:07 - 00:04:23:01
to tackle the causes of global warming
are wildly off track.

00:04:23:02 - 00:04:24:15
– We’ve been warning the world

00:04:24:15 - 00:04:28:01
for decades about Earth breakdown
and about global heating.

00:04:28:13 - 00:04:31:17
And world leaders are still going
in the opposite direction

00:04:31:23 - 00:04:33:04
from where we need to go.

00:04:35:20 - 00:04:38:20
I guess I'm
I've become sort of a spokesperson.

00:04:39:03 - 00:04:40:18
I find that really weird.

00:04:40:18 - 00:04:44:17
We need the public to rise up
and become more powerful

00:04:44:17 - 00:04:46:03
than the fossil fuel industry.

00:04:46:03 - 00:04:48:23
I think every climate activist

00:04:48:23 - 00:04:52:11
has to search within their own soul

00:04:53:00 - 00:04:57:03
and think about risk
and how they can start taking more risk.

00:04:57:10 - 00:05:00:09
Because if you don't have
those butterflies in your in your gut

00:05:00:09 - 00:05:01:19
when you're doing something,

00:05:01:19 - 00:05:04:15
it means it's probably not going to have
a lot of social impact.

00:05:06:08 - 00:05:09:05
– I don’t think we need extra chains, right? 
We just want the chains we want.

00:05:09:05 - 00:05:10:04
I'm kind of a late

00:05:10:04 - 00:05:13:04
comer to the activist world.

00:05:14:17 - 00:05:15:15
– Can we circle up?

00:05:15:15 - 00:05:17:04
Let's make a big circle right here.

00:05:17:04 - 00:05:19:09
We want to go over some of our programing.

00:05:19:09 - 00:05:21:16
In the beginning,
I would show up for demonstrations,

00:05:21:16 - 00:05:27:04
and I was honestly uncomfortable with it
because you feel silly or embarrassed.

00:05:28:04 - 00:05:31:14
– No one should have any conversation

00:05:31:14 - 00:05:36:03
with a police officer other than to say,

00:05:36:10 - 00:05:40:00
can you please talk to our police
liaison person?

00:05:40:12 - 00:05:43:09
That person is Steven
Starr standing right here.

00:05:43:09 - 00:05:44:06
Right?

00:05:44:06 - 00:05:47:01
So that literally means no conversation.

00:05:47:01 - 00:05:49:15
You're doing this
basically deviant behavior, right?

00:05:49:15 - 00:05:51:20
You're doing something
normal people don't do.

00:05:51:20 - 00:05:55:08
And yet each time you feel more emboldened

00:05:55:17 - 00:05:58:02
and more sort of powerful.

00:05:58:02 - 00:05:59:17
– What am I forgetting?

00:05:59:17 - 00:06:00:19
– You’ve got my chain?

00:06:00:19 - 00:06:02:10
– You’ve got my chain?
– I’ve got your chain. Alright.

00:06:02:10 - 00:06:04:07
– I think we're ready.
– Yeah let’s do it. Alright.

00:06:06:01 - 00:06:08:06
– You guys have got everything? Chains, check.

00:06:08:06 - 00:06:10:07
– You've got my chain?
– You've got my chain?

00:06:10:07 - 00:06:11:09
– I've got your chain.

00:06:11:09 - 00:06:15:02
I try to meditate an hour every morning,
and I meditated an hour this morning.

00:06:16:06 - 00:06:18:15
– Come on!

00:06:18:15 - 00:06:20:10
This act is an act of metta.

00:06:20:10 - 00:06:23:10
It's an act of loving kindness
for the earth.

00:06:25:19 - 00:06:28:08
– I don't have that much adrenaline right
now, but when we actually do it,

00:06:28:08 - 00:06:31:08
I wonder what it's going to be like.
My hands are going to be shaking.

00:06:34:02 - 00:06:35:02
– I’m just going to try to stay in

00:06:35:02 - 00:06:38:02
touch with my breath the whole time.

00:06:39:01 - 00:06:42:00
– I feel like I'm in a heist film.

00:06:42:00 - 00:06:46:20
It's a weird mix of like, joy and anxiety

00:06:46:20 - 00:06:49:20
and butterflies and, like, resolve.

00:06:55:04 - 00:06:58:04
– So do we have to cross Hope Street?

00:06:58:11 - 00:06:59:20
– You know where we're heading right Steven?

00:06:59:20 - 00:07:01:17
– Yeah. 
– Okay.

00:07:04:11 - 00:07:07:01
Because my brain's, like,
basically turned off right now.

00:07:12:18 - 00:07:14:08
– Check out that corporate sculpture.

00:07:14:08 - 00:07:16:03
It's really creepy.

00:07:16:03 - 00:07:18:04
Corporate art man.

00:07:40:07 - 00:07:42:11
– These world banks fund

00:07:42:11 - 00:07:44:13
Femicide

00:07:44:13 - 00:07:46:07
Ecocide.

00:07:46:07 - 00:07:50:10
It's about the science,
and it needs to be revered as the truth.

00:07:51:07 - 00:07:54:07
We don't have a lot of time
around the globe.

00:07:54:14 - 00:07:57:09
This is for the Wet'suwet'en in Canada.

00:07:57:09 - 00:08:00:00
This is for the Tongva people here.

00:08:00:00 - 00:08:02:21
This land is acknowledged
as the unceded territory

00:08:02:21 - 00:08:07:13
of People of the Tongva and all their
relatives in the four directions.

00:08:11:22 - 00:08:14:01
Make sure that we are heard!

00:08:14:01 - 00:08:15:09
Sorry, we’re doing our climate action,
you have to go–

00:08:15:09 - 00:08:17:21
– It's a climate crisis.
– We’re just trying to go to work.

00:08:17:21 - 00:08:19:19
– It's a climate crisis.

00:08:19:19 - 00:08:22:03
– It's a climate crisis.

00:08:22:03 - 00:08:23:05
Thank you.

00:08:23:05 - 00:08:28:15
A lot of my scientific colleagues
do not condone this kind of behavior.

00:08:29:03 - 00:08:31:04
You know. So
how are they going to respond? Right?

00:08:31:04 - 00:08:34:19
They'll be sitting on review panels
for grants that I write.

00:08:34:19 - 00:08:35:19
They'll know who I am.

00:08:35:19 - 00:08:39:08
And if they disagree with this stuff,
you know, I could get fired.

00:08:40:20 - 00:08:41:21
– So I'm here

00:08:41:21 - 00:08:44:21
because
scientists are not being listened to.

00:08:45:02 - 00:08:48:02
I'm willing to take a risk
for this gorgeous planet

00:08:49:09 - 00:08:51:12
and for my sons.

00:08:51:12 - 00:08:55:08
And we've been trying to warn you guys
for so many decades that we're

00:08:55:15 - 00:08:59:01
heading towards a fucking catastrophe,
and we've been being ignored.

00:08:59:12 - 00:09:01:06
And it's gotta stop.

00:09:01:06 - 00:09:04:06
We're going to lose everything.

00:09:11:21 - 00:09:13:05
– I've been communicating

00:09:13:05 - 00:09:16:07
to Peter through, social media.

00:09:16:08 - 00:09:20:21
He wanted to, step up in his own
personal civil disobedience,

00:09:20:21 - 00:09:23:21
because he just was overwhelmed with,

00:09:26:05 - 00:09:30:11
the terror and the lack of action and,

00:09:30:11 - 00:09:34:00
and so he just felt compelled
to take that next step.

00:09:35:05 - 00:09:38:09
So I came here to support him, basically,
and to support the others

00:09:38:15 - 00:09:41:15
who are practicing civil disobedience.

00:09:43:02 - 00:09:45:09
– We're here at Chase Bank,

00:09:45:09 - 00:09:49:06
in particular,
because Chase Bank is the world's

00:09:49:12 - 00:09:53:16
biggest funder of fossil
fuel infrastructure projects.

00:09:53:19 - 00:09:56:19
So this is where we hit first.

00:09:56:23 - 00:10:01:04
We cut them off at the balls
by cutting the money supply.

00:10:01:18 - 00:10:03:18
That's the point of being here today.

00:10:04:18 - 00:10:06:02
– I wanted to say

00:10:06:02 - 00:10:09:21
a few more words just to make one thing
really, really clear.

00:10:10:00 - 00:10:14:03
What the IPCC report spells out
is that this whole

00:10:14:03 - 00:10:19:16
framing of 1.5°C of global
heating is very, very dangerous.

00:10:19:21 - 00:10:23:03
1.2°C where we're at is not safe.

00:10:23:03 - 00:10:28:11
People and huge
swaths of the planet are dying right now.

00:10:28:19 - 00:10:32:18
The real framing has to be a switch
into climate emergency mode.

00:10:33:05 - 00:10:36:05
We have to start treating this
like an actual emergency

00:10:36:09 - 00:10:38:03
and not just another issue.

00:10:38:03 - 00:10:42:01
– The new IPCC report is just terrifying.

00:10:42:01 - 00:10:45:03
It should be on the front page
of every newspaper throughout the world.

00:10:45:03 - 00:10:48:03
And, crickets.

00:10:48:23 - 00:10:51:05
– We are not protestors.

00:10:51:05 - 00:10:54:00
– We are not protesters! 
– We are protectors.

00:10:54:00 - 00:10:55:12
– We are protectors!

00:10:55:12 - 00:10:59:07
– This institution
needs to look at what they're doing

00:10:59:07 - 00:11:01:02
and be part of the solution

00:11:01:02 - 00:11:02:21
for healing our waters.

00:11:02:21 - 00:11:06:01
And how we quench our thirst,
and how we grow our food

00:11:06:18 - 00:11:09:18
and how we share, and not commodify.

00:11:10:04 - 00:11:11:09
We’ll do whatever it takes.

00:11:11:09 - 00:11:13:14
– What do we do when our planet is under attack?

00:11:13:14 - 00:11:16:07
– Stand up fight back! 
– What?

00:11:16:07 - 00:11:19:03
– Stand up fight back!

00:11:37:04 - 00:11:40:03
– This is climate scientists
speaking up all over the world

00:11:40:17 - 00:11:45:21
about the crimes against humanity
that are being put forward by large

00:11:46:02 - 00:11:50:11
financial institutions–one of them Chase–which has hundreds of billions
– And Chase being one of them?

00:11:50:11 - 00:11:56:05
of dollars invested since the Paris
Accords in fossil fuel infrastructure.
– Sure. Okay.

00:11:56:05 - 00:11:58:09
And the problem with that is your kids.

00:11:58:09 - 00:11:59:12
My kids, his kids.

00:11:59:12 - 00:12:03:18
Our kids are looking at a future that's
an absolute cataclysm.

00:12:03:18 - 00:12:08:08
– We love our children. 
– We love our Grandchildren.

00:12:08:08 - 00:12:09:09
– We love the Earth!

00:12:09:09 - 00:12:14:18
– Our role here is to protect the protesters–who are not protesters,

00:12:14:18 - 00:12:19:12
they are protectors–and to,
make sure that the police act

00:12:20:08 - 00:12:22:23
appropriately under the circumstances.

00:12:22:23 - 00:12:25:16
The intention of the police

00:12:25:16 - 00:12:28:19
is to respond to complaints
from the owners

00:12:28:19 - 00:12:32:14
of the building and the bank managers,
Chase Bank, to be precise.

00:12:32:18 - 00:12:35:18
They are not happy that we've locked
the doors to their building.

00:12:36:17 - 00:12:39:00
– The police have said that

00:12:39:00 - 00:12:41:21
as far as they're concerned,
they have no issue with

00:12:41:21 - 00:12:45:20
with the protests happening on the street.
Stay as long as you like.

00:12:46:00 - 00:12:46:23
They have a question:

00:12:46:23 - 00:12:50:12
How long will we be here?
If we stay here with the doors locked?

00:12:50:19 - 00:12:54:16
The bank management and the building
management may ask them to arrest you.

00:12:57:14 - 00:13:00:09
– We don't want to put a time on it
right now, I don't think.

00:13:00:09 - 00:13:02:08
Let's just say, ‘We're ready–’

00:13:02:08 - 00:13:05:15
Let's say something vague
like ‘We're ready to stay here

00:13:05:15 - 00:13:08:15
as long as it takes.’

00:13:09:11 - 00:13:11:06
– Maybe I'll just say this from my heart,

00:13:11:06 - 00:13:14:06
speaking to the people out there.

00:13:14:19 - 00:13:17:18
We're fighting for the preservation
of this entire planet.

00:13:18:11 - 00:13:21:11
I can afford to stay here
for a few more minutes, locked to this door.

00:13:21:20 - 00:13:23:17
That's the least I can do.

00:13:24:22 - 00:13:26:14
– The police indicated that if the

00:13:26:14 - 00:13:30:01
bank managers and building managers
ask, they will undertake an arrest.

00:13:30:16 - 00:13:33:22
So that back and forth has happened up
until a few moments ago when,

00:13:33:22 - 00:13:35:15
they blocked off the street.

00:13:35:15 - 00:13:41:03
There are now dozens of police,
in a, cluster up the block.

00:13:41:12 - 00:13:45:03
– You guys,
this planet is fucking miraculous.

00:13:45:18 - 00:13:48:18
It's beautiful
and it's precious beyond words.

00:13:49:21 - 00:13:53:02
To be fascinated means something
like you can't look away from.

00:13:54:08 - 00:13:57:08
I can't look away from what's happening
to the Earth system right now.

00:13:58:16 - 00:14:03:03
I understand and process that through data
and through satellite observations,

00:14:03:07 - 00:14:06:20
models, 
and through asking scientific questions

00:14:06:20 - 00:14:09:00
and then trying to answer them
with those tools.

00:14:09:00 - 00:14:12:14
So to to be separated from my scientific

00:14:12:14 - 00:14:15:14
research would be a
a tragic thing for me.

00:14:15:19 - 00:14:19:04
– Science is not something that I do.

00:14:21:02 - 00:14:22:08
Science is

00:14:22:08 - 00:14:24:04
something that I am!

00:14:24:15 - 00:14:26:09
– To support people who are who are

00:14:26:09 - 00:14:30:03
participating in civil disobedience
or to even risk arrest,

00:14:30:04 - 00:14:34:06
you know, people are afraid,
you know, understandably,

00:14:34:10 - 00:14:37:21
you know, but
but still, we've got to step it up.

00:14:38:12 - 00:14:40:21
– To the climate scientists out there.

00:14:40:21 - 00:14:43:10
How much more data do you need?

00:14:43:10 - 00:14:44:22
What are you waiting for?

00:14:44:22 - 00:14:46:12
Get off the sidelines.

00:14:46:12 - 00:14:48:03
Help wake up the public.

00:14:48:03 - 00:14:52:10
Stand up for your kids 
and for the planet that you love.

00:14:54:14 - 00:14:57:01
– There's no more time to delay action.

00:14:57:01 - 00:14:59:16
That's really the urgency
that's driving these guys.

00:14:59:16 - 00:15:01:14
I mean, look at even this,

00:15:01:14 - 00:15:06:11
which is a pretty incredible
action, is a pretty paltry turnout of,

00:15:06:20 - 00:15:08:07
you know, support.

00:15:08:07 - 00:15:11:09
And that tends to be the case,
unfortunately.

00:15:11:09 - 00:15:16:16
It's so disturbing that as a species,
we're so distracted from our own

00:15:17:09 - 00:15:20:19
protecting our own survival
and the things that we need to,

00:15:21:01 - 00:15:22:10
you know, to live and thrive.

00:15:22:14 - 00:15:26:13
– Hey hey! Ho ho! Jaime Dimon has got to go!

00:15:26:13 - 00:15:30:16
– Hey, hey, ho ho! Jaime Dimon has got to go!

00:15:30:20 - 00:15:35:02
– I believe we should be doing things about
climate CO2, but it's not a simple thing,

00:15:35:02 - 00:15:36:10
like just stop financing them.

00:15:36:10 - 00:15:39:16
So if I could stop financing
a good oil company, you know,

00:15:40:07 - 00:15:41:11
that isn't going to help.

00:15:41:11 - 00:15:43:11
– To Jamie Dimon and the powers that be:

00:15:43:12 - 00:15:48:05
I wish you could see what I see coming
because it would transform you completely.

00:15:48:05 - 00:15:52:11
We're on this planet together, and you're
in just as much danger as we are.

00:15:52:14 - 00:15:55:06
Come join us in actions.
Build out renewables.

00:15:55:06 - 00:15:59:07
So much money is needed to start
effecting this transformation.

00:15:59:15 - 00:16:03:20
You can make that decision and
and literally join our movement.

00:16:04:15 - 00:16:06:00
We're we're waiting for you.

00:16:08:09 - 00:16:09:17
– These are peaceful protesters,

00:16:09:17 - 00:16:12:01
and weren’t causing any harm.
– Oh, very, very peaceful. Very peaceful.

00:16:12:01 - 00:16:13:03
I can attest to that.

00:16:13:03 - 00:16:16:06
We're not we're not choosing sides here,
but we have to enforce the law.

00:16:16:12 - 00:16:19:11
– Talking to the police, to LAPD.

00:16:19:19 - 00:16:22:19
You can see it in their eyes, and

00:16:23:01 - 00:16:24:17
they're

00:16:24:17 - 00:16:28:03
well aware of what's going on.

00:16:28:14 - 00:16:32:07
They're just doing what they do
in service to the state. Yes.

00:16:32:07 - 00:16:34:04
Very much.

00:16:34:04 - 00:16:37:04
But they're, you can feel their heartbeat

00:16:37:07 - 00:16:39:16
in a way that a year ago,
maybe two years ago,

00:16:39:16 - 00:16:42:16
you couldn't feel it.

00:16:43:16 - 00:16:47:14
– But once we put hands on, once
we get there, there's no turning back.

00:16:47:14 - 00:16:49:21
We have to go through with the arrest.
So you can explain that.

00:16:49:21 - 00:16:50:22
– At 3:00 PM,

00:16:51:17 - 00:16:54:09
if the scientists have not left,

00:16:54:09 - 00:16:59:09
they will more than likely be arrested
and cut off from the doors,

00:16:59:09 - 00:17:03:21
with the fire department's
cooperation bringing, bolt cutters into play.

00:17:07:20 - 00:17:11:08
– If you haven't unshackled yourselves
from the door with the 20 minutes

00:17:11:08 - 00:17:15:12
or by 20 minutes from now,
they will start to commence arrests.

00:17:15:23 - 00:17:18:21
So that is the information
that they've given me to give to you.

00:17:18:21 - 00:17:20:21
What would you like me to say to them,
Eric?

00:17:20:21 - 00:17:22:21
– I'm not going to leave.

00:17:22:21 - 00:17:24:11
– Allan?

00:17:24:15 - 00:17:26:18
– Well I don't have the keys,
so.

00:17:27:03 - 00:17:29:01
– I don’t have the key either.

00:17:29:05 - 00:17:29:18
– Greg?

00:17:29:18 - 00:17:32:18
– I'm staying.

00:17:34:16 - 00:17:36:08
If there was ever a time

00:17:36:08 - 00:17:39:12
for a human being to be alive,
it's this moment.

00:17:39:22 - 00:17:44:19
What we do, what you do is determinative.

00:17:52:19 - 00:17:55:08
– Really, important changes

00:17:55:08 - 00:17:58:08
that happen for the common man
to benefit everybody,

00:17:58:16 - 00:18:01:19
the only way it ever happens
starts with actions

00:18:01:19 - 00:18:04:19
like this.

00:18:06:06 - 00:18:07:14
– We are nature

00:18:07:14 - 00:18:10:20
defending itself,
and I want everyone out there to join us.

00:18:17:07 - 00:18:20:09
All of the
activists, I think I can probably speak

00:18:20:09 - 00:18:23:09
on behalf of them and say
that they are all acting out of love.

00:18:23:12 - 00:18:25:09
They are acting out of rage.

00:18:25:09 - 00:18:28:16
They are acting out of grief
for what is being lost.

00:18:31:07 - 00:18:32:17
They are on the right side of history,

00:18:32:17 - 00:18:35:02
and that's always kind of a hard place
to be.

00:18:35:02 - 00:18:39:01
Like that phrase, being on the right side
of history means that the public

00:18:39:03 - 00:18:44:11
hasn't realized something, and the
the vanguard of people who do realize

00:18:45:00 - 00:18:48:15
what's really happening
and speak out against the status quo,

00:18:48:15 - 00:18:51:15
they are generally mocked.

00:18:56:21 - 00:18:59:15
– This is the,
the moment before we get arrested.

00:18:59:15 - 00:19:02:18
So it's it's
kind of like a very open moment

00:19:02:18 - 00:19:06:21
where there's a lot of, like,
love kind of flowing through you actually,

00:19:06:21 - 00:19:10:04
I know that probably sounds corny,
but that's sort of what it feels like.

00:19:10:04 - 00:19:13:04
You know, I feel like
I don't know what's going to happen,

00:19:13:11 - 00:19:16:21
but I feel very strongly that
I've done the right thing by doing this.

00:19:22:03 - 00:19:23:18
– Here they come!
– Here they come.

00:19:23:18 - 00:19:25:04
– Are they coming now?
– They’re coming.

00:19:25:04 - 00:19:26:18
– Alright my brothers.

00:19:46:11 - 00:19:49:11
What if I had an opportunity to make some
kind of difference and I didn't take it?

00:19:50:06 - 00:19:52:11
I would regret that my whole life.

00:19:52:11 - 00:19:55:11
When things get really bad
in the coming years–

00:19:56:15 - 00:19:58:13
and they will get worse than this,

00:19:58:13 - 00:20:01:13
in terms of global heat
and climate impacts–

00:20:02:07 - 00:20:05:06
I need to know that I tried to do

00:20:05:06 - 00:20:08:06
everything I could.

00:20:21:20 - 00:20:24:19
– I have a feeling
this won't be my last action.

00:20:53:14 - 00:20:54:15
– Well, I dreamed

00:20:54:15 - 00:20:57:17
I saw the knights in armor

00:20:57:17 - 00:21:02:04
come saying something about a queen.

00:21:03:03 - 00:21:06:08
There were peasants singing.

00:21:06:18 - 00:21:12:15
And drummers drummed. The archers split
the tree.

00:21:13:09 - 00:21:18:19
There was a fanfare blowing to the song

00:21:19:07 - 00:21:24:10
that floated on the breeze.

00:21:27:09 - 00:21:31:10
Look at Mother Nature on the run,

00:21:31:18 - 00:21:36:05
in the 21st century.

00:21:37:10 - 00:21:41:08
We got Mother Nature on the run,

00:21:41:21 - 00:21:45:12
in the 21st century.

00:22:45:13 - 00:22:49:05
– Stop line five!
– Stop line five!

00:22:49:05 - 00:22:55:09
– All of the scientists agree that we need
to end all new fossil fuels right now.

00:22:55:16 - 00:22:58:02
And we need to ramp down
existing fossil fuels.

00:23:01:23 - 00:23:03:17
– We are on the right side of history.

00:23:03:17 - 00:23:04:12
Thank you.

00:23:07:23 - 00:23:10:22
– No new drilling!
