Hi, anthony ok today on the stream. How is extreme weather changing pakistan at the moment about 33000000 people have been impacted by very severe floods, genus, current monsoon season. More rain is on the way. Earlier we spoke to and one con about conditions on the ground. Over a 1000000 people in buck is done currently do not have shoot. Keeping under the sky, 1000000 small need food parcels, hygiene kids kitchen sits and fresh water every day. Many of the roads have been washed away, so the aide is taken in trucks as close as possible some days transferred to smaller vehicles, from data transferred even to richer bicycles, whatever. And in other areas, people waiting in water and also using pulse when necessary to deliver deed. Its a logistical nightmare. So a logistical nightmare for pakistan right now. But what about managing extreme weather in the future . That is our discussion. You are welcome to it. I Comment Section on youtube is life join us. Ah. In our conversation today we have zane and so when i shut zane walk into the stream. I am zen basra via mo deserves correspondent reporting on the floods in pakistan. Thank he so much. Hello. So when get to have you on the street, welcome. Thank you for having me on solomon sophie, im the head of 5, mr. Clark, st. Strategic response. Yet to have you and i you show so good to have you in this particular discussion. Welcome to the stream. Likewise, hi, im anxious and eager. Im a climate and human rights advocate, Animal Research scholar at the new school. What so good to have you. So i am thinking about the pressing needs right now. And the best way to sum up the pressing. These are really to be on the ground to be amongst the people and see the people i want to show you a little clip from some reporting that saying has just been doing, saying it is of a woman who is trying to get some food. She has a family to feed, we hear more about home just the moment, and then im going to ask you, what is going to happen to her . Lets have a look at the clip festival. Oh, this is the face of hunger in soon to describe what is happening here as desperation. Trivializes the extent of the suffering he spoke to for his i know she was headed into the fray. She says she had no choice. You know . Oh good. Youre gonna go now houses have fallen down. You dont have teens. We cant shade our children from the sun. All houses have been submerged. I swear to god, there is nothing left. All our belongings have been washed away, but were poor. Our children are sick. They are just sitting there. Same was going to happen to the santa thats, thats a very big question. Whats interesting listening to that again is that for zona, like so many other people was not from the village that, that a drop was meant to be for. Shed come from another village that didnt have enough. And so a lot of the time people are accused of not being as needy as the actual needed people. So when she said, i swear to god, our houses have fallen down and we need help. What she was saying was meant for the soldiers that were standing next to me to explain to them that they shouldnt be pushing her and other people away because they are just as needy as everybody else. And thats, thats a very common thing here. There, there isnt enough food to go around there just isnt. And theres all these big ideas of trying to discuss Climate Change of trying to discuss how we take care of the Macro Economic situation and for people like her really its very basic. Its day to day, theyre hungry, theyre hungry now and they need help with their hunger and their thirst, their new clean water, they need shelter to shade themselves in the sun. They need it. Now. Whats going to happen to her is probably more of what you saw. You know, she, she had 5 other kids back in the village, the littlest one. She had to bring with her because she couldnt leave him behind to take care of himself. And it was, it was really harrowing for us that we were actually there right next to her when she was trying to grab the food. The camera man who was filming actually tried to stop, but he was doing to try to grab the child. And thats when you saw the soldier come in and help her out of the scrum and help her with the, with the bag goods that she was getting. So its really hard to say, i mean if im being totally honest, most of the people in her situation are more than likely to face more difficulties before things get better because theres just not enough food. Theres just not enough stuff to go around. And theres too many people that need help. So why not saying reporters perspective talking to people traveling around them. And youve also been traveling around with the Prime Minister and seeing the dire need. If so many people are hungry and now theyre getting really angry. So hungry and angry and cut off. How do you deal with that . Are you quit to deal with as you can see on the down pockets and hes basically facing a catastrophe, unprecedented nature. I think this is one of the biggest human tragedies that is occurring and south asia and focus on its been like, you know, the forefront of it. And as far as your question is concerned, we are not equipped as much as you know. We want to because this was just, i didnt see them that just like took a took everyone by surprise and for because of the Climate Change that the whole board is facing. But unfortunately, focused on, despite contributing very little to the Climate Crisis in the world, has been at the forefront of this disaster. If i mean, you know, not to interrupt you, not to interrupt, but i dont think youve answered the question. The question is, how is your government preparing for the future . Not what it could have done to prepare for now. I know im getting to that. Im just trying to explain the situation on the ground. So before i can complete the answer. So as your representative was also saying, you know, theres around homes that has been destroyed and around 3000 miles, the ones that have been damaged. So its very hard for us to reach everywhere, but we are doing the best possible that we can do. You know, n d a, me and me off the focus on probably the longer the National Disaster Management Authority has been doing maximum ass orders that they can Prime Minister has been. And so making sure that the food of you know which, which is available twice, it has been provided to the people who are coming if youre not currently true and start entirely true. Because if a Prime Minister cannot even get on the ground to support his people not even touched the land that he claims to represent with his feet and throws bags of ration at them. Got is not helping in full capacity. No, i dont. I disagree with that because Prime Minister has been visiting all of the 4 provinces on a daily basis. He has been reaching wherever you can by year he has been reaching wherever he can buy ground and he cannot mentor you after. Whats your government plan after the water dissipate . Whats your government plan for next week . We are working on 4 pronged approach. As we myself was trying to explain, the rehabilitation is one of them. So once we tackled with the 4 crisis and we get donations that we have been receiving from the partners that were going to be working on behalf of the station and communication, especially transportation is the number one issue. So as im speaking even right now, the Power Outages that have been in the areas are being fixed. The roads have been constructed and especially the Food Supplies trying to be maintain. So we can provide food to as many people as possible because you have to understand you know, the public and pakistan cannot even see you. I think i have no restaurant because the situation is unfolding on the ground. You are based in the u. S. So im sure when you were the august and you will be able to see the figures as well, but theres half a 1000000 people in displacement gaps. So its like a huge task and in any country, and this situation would be dealing with the situation. As we are non boxes and things are going to take time, but things are going to get a shot. Im wondering when somebody says we could not foresee this level of extreme flooding. Super flood j monsoon season, as a climate activist. When someone says i could not foresee this, what is the 1st thought that comes into your head . I think that sympathetic response is especially for a government thats hard to be in power. If your country consistently is less than one of the top 10 nations to be affected by Climate Change, you absolutely need to take that into account. How are you going to cover . No berlin and when it is flooded, when it no longer exists and the Climate Change has increased heat where you can, pug, run by threefold. 30 percent is government was empower when it was under heat waves. Dal was on price, it entered, but then it had a chance 10 to take appropriate measures. It didnt. And now this is happening and it has a chance to take appropriate measures. But all we hear our peers here are statements. Let me go back. So i dont think thats accurate. I think thats a very politically charged statement that miss i show has made or the government came into our in april or may. And the Climate Change has been happening for far longer. You know, from that a no government like, even in pakistan, are you s, are you ok . You have seen devastating floods in europe as well in europe as well. And no country has like the capacity to do, especially a country like bog assigned was already facing our crippling economic issues. And the government is committed and is actually working nonstop around the block in progress. And to make sure that people who are united get the helped me. All right, so, so im, im, im, im gonna allow some of our audience here watching on huge sheet to come in here zane standby, im going to put these questions to you. Im gonna give you a couple because of the, the delay that we have between me and then hearing you say on youtube, ive got, pfizer sang when it comes to government release and rehabilitation. Theres a concern between about pakistans, present government. It is in shambles. Thats one thought thing. Let me give you a 2nd one. This is from the v. Most areas affected by the floods are still inaccessible. And because theres been damage to the infrastructure. Thank. Can you help me out on those 2 questions coming from our audience . Sure. So ill address the 1st question by sort of talking about what the other 2 guests were saying. As you know, as everything in progress on tends to be, it becomes everything becomes very politicized. But i can tell you on the ground right now, nobody cares about the politics of any party. Those that are displaced by these floods. The people that have been, you know, whose homes have been swept away and completely destroyed, who are hungry right now. Who havent eaten in several days. Some of them havent eaten properly in a week. 10 days, 2 weeks. They dont care about anyones politics. And as an example of that, we were in baluchistan province earlier today, and we met person after person in a village called a lawyer and in just about district. And what people kept saying there is that were hungry, the trickle down system of aid that goes from federal provincial to municipal, to the feudal lords, to local leaders, to the people that isnt trickling down at all or fast enough. They blamed corruption, they blamed favoritism, they blamed not enough aid to go around this disparity, literally on. So people are on the sides of the road, half of the road that is filled with homeless, newly Homeless People will have blue tents sent in from china. And then the other half will not. And the reason for that is because they only wrote down 100 names to distribute that day. And the bureaucracy doesnt allow for any more distribution, the people that need the help dont care about any political party. One guy even said that please tell the International Donors not to donate to the people donate directly to the army. They will give it to us. Now the politics is that theres a long history there. Theres a lot of problems, but what people are doing now is looking to the strongest, most well Resource Institution to help them because there is a deep loss of trust in the political system in their civilian leaders. And youll find someone to blame any political party, no matter who they are right now. The flood is, is washing over all political boundaries and affecting everyone. And the level of impatience is growing. As far as infrastructure. Absolutely, roads are gone, rail lines are gone. People are operating boats in what were farm fields. They have like 10 feet of water in them to try to get to villages to shuttle people back and forth for medical treatment to rescue pregnant women and take them to the hospital. So infrastructure is a serious problem, helicopters can only fly so far, and then doing sort of food drops it, it always, you know, its, its not working. Weve seen problems with that where food aid isnt being delivered properly. And this is where, you know, the military is very good at being a military, but it comes to humanitarian relief. They need more civilian support and there isnt that level of infrastructure to help them deal with with what is truly a civilian matter. But they are the most well resource, strong strongest institution in the country and people are turning to them to expect them to help, but how far they can help theyre limited in what they can do as well. So infrastructure is definitely a problem. Roads have been swept away, and again theres, theres not enough space to house people and theres not enough food to go around. So we have 2 issues here, multiple issues, but 2 big problems challenges. One is up right now, looking after people right now. Flood survivors right now, and then preparing for the future. Now you may remember that they mentioned a place that hes just been early on today called joe cope. Bad. I want to show you is it impacts on it was what the hottest place in the country just a few weeks ago. So im just looking at the temperature because it was hard for me to believe 51. 00 celsius, a 121. 00 fahrenheit. So you go from extreme heat, let me show you the picture here from extreme heat to flooding. Let me show you the pictures. Go ahead. Lets have a look here. So what you go from in may, is the heat wave in may with those extreme temperatures. And then in late august, we have flooding. This is going to be not an extraordinary situation, is going to be a regular situation. Early on we spoke to sharing a mom. She is the federal minister for Climate Change for pakistan. This is what she told us. M g and g admissions are not produced, Global Warming will not change in pakistan. As we build back. We surely need to adapt better in many places for climate resilience, but at the same time, under other countries reduced emissions as promised in previous job. Events, climate disasters will head frontline countries like bog has done with increasing magnitude the dime to change that is now someone i havent seen other countries rallying around helping for aid yet, but not thinking about the future and not maybe looking at a Greenhouse Gases or g h d, as i show you, raymond, with step just a little bit earlier and not looking at the root cause theyre trying to put a band aid on the wound. Salmon. Yes, absolutely. You know, as a matter of fact, box on Carbon Footprint is only 25 to point one percent. But, but you know, the response off, you know, global
