|---|
| subtitle-43560-45920-19 | "So bear with me, because this is important." |
|---|
| subtitle-45920-47400-20 | "Look at this graph." |
|---|
| subtitle-47400-50560-21 | "These are the levels of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere" |
|---|
| subtitle-50560-53160-22 | "over hundreds of thousands of years." |
|---|
| subtitle-53160-56080-23 | "But this spike in carbon dioxide at the very end?" |
|---|
| subtitle-56080-58680-24 | "That took off during the industrial revolution." |
|---|
| subtitle-58680-64239-25 | "We started breaking CO2 records in 1950, and we haven’t stopped since." |
|---|
| subtitle-64239-65359-26 | "why?" |
|---|
| subtitle-65360-70920-27 | "Well, scientists say there’s a 95% chance that human activity is the cause." |

| subtitle-72920-76560-28 | "We’ve been burning more and more fossil fuels like oil and coal, which" |
|---|
| subtitle-76560-81000-29 | "release CO2, to power our homes, factories, airplanes and cars." |
|---|
| subtitle-81000-84440-30 | "There’s also a lot more of us. The global population" |
|---|
| subtitle-84440-87880-31 | "has tripled in the past 70 years." |
|---|
| subtitle-87880-90840-32 | "And we’re consuming more products from animals" |
|---|
| subtitle-90840-93720-33 | "that release another pollutant called Methane." |
|---|
| subtitle-93720-98000-34 | "So all those gases are in the air, and when sunlight gets into the earth’s" |
|---|
| subtitle-98000-102040-35 | "atmosphere, some of the heat gets trapped, and the planet gets warmer." |
|---|
| subtitle-102040-104400-36 | "That’s why they call it the “Greenhouse Effect”." |
|---|
| subtitle-104400-107800-37 | "But the concern is not that the earth is getting warmer." |
|---|
| subtitle-107800-110400-38 | "But the concern is not that the earth is getting warmer." |

|---|
| subtitle-124160-129199-43 | "Which is okay. In fact, the UN says if we warm by 1.5 degrees" |
|---|
| subtitle-129199-131880-44 | "before the end of the century we should be fine." |
|---|
| subtitle-131880-135920-45 | "The UN says even 2 degrees would 'probably' be alright." |
|---|
| subtitle-135920-139840-46 | "But again, the problem is speed. Because right now, we are" |

| subtitle-139840-143720-47 | "on track to hit 1.5 degrees in only ten years." |
|---|
| subtitle-143720-148280-48 | "And If we don't slow that warming down, it could mean catastrophe" |
|---|
| subtitle-148280-151240-49 | "within my lifetime, and maybe yours too." |
|---|
| subtitle-151240-153480-50 | "And we’re already getting a taste." |

| subtitle-263000-266720-79 | "or a maximum of 2, before the year 2100." |
|---|
| subtitle-266720-271680-80 | "So countries set their own targets on how much CO2 they emit." |

|---|
| subtitle-352440-355760-105 | "in the cities. What a great way to encourage people out of their cars." |
|---|
| subtitle-355760-360000-106 | "But experts say what’s needed now is an even bigger push" |
|---|
| subtitle-360000-363080-107 | "to change everything about the way we run our world." |
|---|

|---|
| subtitle-366520-369280-109 | "In order to combat that we have to change the system that" |
|---|
| subtitle-369280-372960-110 | "has allowed it to happen. You can’t have infinite growth on a finite planet." |
|---|
| subtitle-372960-377760-111 | "And everyone can do that by shifting to renewable energy, reducing" |
|---|
| subtitle-377760-382280-112 | "the use of cars, use trains more, cycle more, eat less meat" |
|---|
| subtitle-382280-384240-113 | "consume a bit more carefully." |
|---|
| subtitle-384240-388440-114 | "So where does that leave us? Well there’s only so much bike-riding" |
|---|
| subtitle-388440-391560-115 | "and light-bulb replacing you and I can do everyday." |
|---|
| subtitle-391560-394000-116 | "But the truth is that it’s those everyday things" |
|---|
| subtitle-394000-395760-117 | "that are going to change anyway." |
|---|
| subtitle-395760-399320-118 | "Even coffee could run out if farmers can’t grow it." |
|---|
| subtitle-399320-404000-119 | "So the expert advice? Is that it’s down to all of us, to change our ways and" |
|---|
| subtitle-404000-407600-120 | "shake things up, or climate change is going to do it for us." |
