1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha. I'm welcome to Stephan 2 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 1: artald Re production of iHeart Radio and welcome to another 3 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: episode of Women Around the World. But before we get 4 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: to our woman in the World, Annie, I know Ciminthy 5 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: has done a few episodes around climate change and the 6 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: overall gendering of recycling and even advocating for climate change. 7 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: But have you and I talked about the overall concerns 8 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: of what is happening right now? I don't think we've 9 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 1: talked about it in depth. I think we have done some, 10 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: especially in our questions that we do at the beginning 11 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: for those kinds of episodes. I think we've talked about 12 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: it a little, but I don't think we've done a 13 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: deep dive in regular emotional concerns about it. An you 14 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,039 Speaker 1: wanted to go to Antarctica. I did, yes, and then yes, 15 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: and you still do. And I saw that sent you 16 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 1: a post about the North Pole and that's not today. 17 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: But I just was like, you know, stuff different like that, 18 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: and I know you talked about wanting to travel it responsibly. Um, 19 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: so can you tell me, ay, why have you did 20 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: you want to go to Antarctica and be what does 21 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: that mean to travel responsibly. Oh yes. So when I 22 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: was in third grade, I made a list of a 23 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: hundred things that I want to do before I die, 24 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: and one of the things on there was visit all 25 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: seven continents. And I'm a very adventurous soul. I love traveling, 26 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: I love hiking. I love snow, although I think I 27 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: like it more in small doses than large doses. So 28 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: I really wanted to go. And I even if there's 29 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: two times to know three times it's fallen through, because 30 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: I like figure out. I got a kind of a 31 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: research grant situation. One time to go. Is it mcderna, mcdonna, 32 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: it's not mcdonna, but anyway, that very research station down there. Anyway, 33 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. But I really wanted to go, but 34 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 1: I didn't want to be like kind of the Jeff Bezos. 35 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: So I want to go to space and I don't 36 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: care the consequences. I want to do a type thing 37 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: because the Anartica is one of the big places we 38 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: can see the effects of climate change. So it just 39 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: felt incredibly like selfish of me to just go because 40 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 1: I want to see it when it would kind of 41 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: impact the environment and the health of that environment. Having 42 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: me there, So it was really important to me that 43 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: if I did go, I would do it in a 44 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: way that it was responsible. So I wasn't just being 45 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: kind of a selfish tourist who was trouncing about and 46 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: ruining the thing that she was excited to see, right, 47 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: which which you and I have talked about, because I 48 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't do the money a minute, because I'm hitting the 49 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: point in my life as I'm hitting the middle part, 50 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: I guess I knew it was coming. I felt like 51 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: I went through a quarter life crisis, the you know, 52 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: ridiculousness of it all. So I thought, maybe I will 53 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: bass the midlife bit. But I don't think I have 54 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,519 Speaker 1: because I've been really like, I'm gonna buy something, I 55 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: don't know, I'm gonna do it, impulse by something and 56 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: maybe a trip to a resort or something. And then 57 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: that included the conversation like, but we have to do 58 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: this responsibly because we know many resorts and many tourist 59 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: traps like that often capitalized without considering the people around them, 60 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: or the environment and the ecosystem that they are often disrupting, 61 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: destroying whatever what not, and thinking about how to do 62 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: that responsibly because I want to be super lazy but 63 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: super conscientious. I will both those things. But also, as 64 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: I've been thinking about it, honestly, I don't know a 65 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: lot about the climate crisis, and this is my bad. 66 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: I am holding myself accountable. People are probably gonna yell 67 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: at me, and you have every right to. I feel 68 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: like I came into a uh no excuses, just my 69 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: environmental being. You know, my parents are very conservative, came 70 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: through a very religious background, small town in the mountains, 71 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: all of those things where that wasn't a big concern, 72 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: and that wasn't a big conversation. Um, we talked about access. 73 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: In my home, we did not have access to recycling. 74 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: I think even to this point, they do not have 75 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: access to recycling. Even in Atlanta where we are, apparently 76 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: we can't recycle glass. And I'm very confused by this 77 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: whole situation of whether or not it's actually effective and 78 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: what it is as much as it's like, uh, performative, 79 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: whether it's by the city or by us, yeah, as 80 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: as as the individuals. So I really feel like, hey, 81 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: I'm doing the bare minimum, but the bare minimum is 82 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: also destroying things because we're not doing it appropriately. And 83 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: there's this level of like, yes, once again, I'm lazy 84 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: and I want to be conscientious, but how do I 85 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: do this being lazy? Don't hell at me. I know 86 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: that means don't be lazy. I get it, I get it, 87 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: but I have come to that point of like trying 88 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: to figure out what this means, how do I learn 89 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: about it and why is it that it does seem 90 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: like the older generation, like myself and older I know, 91 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: I have a lot of peers on here, So don't 92 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: yell at me. I know a lot of my peers 93 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: are really good about it. I'm talking about myself and 94 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: more of my parents age about not really. I mean, 95 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: that's the point of the claimate change deniers, like they're 96 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: talking with it's not that bad, calm down. So like 97 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: there's this whole level of being in between of like, yes, 98 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: I care, yes I'm not doing enough, But at the 99 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 1: same time, it's even though this is a very wealthy 100 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: area that we are in, it still doesn't have accessibility. 101 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: Maybe it's because we're not demanding it enough all of that, 102 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: but one of the things that I am seeing is 103 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: that the fact that the younger generation are the ones 104 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: that are really killing it in this and doing so 105 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: massive amounts of work that I cannot believe is even needed, 106 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: and it makes me sad. I'm so sorry, young generation, 107 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: and thank you all at the same time. And one 108 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: of those younger generations who are making a change in 109 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: difference is today's women around the world. Mary Nell Ubaldo, who, 110 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: by the way, it's also a social worker. Apparently she 111 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: was working with children and women and advocating for their names. 112 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: So hey, friend, I call them friend. Yeah. Yaldo is 113 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: a twenty four year old Philippines native who has been 114 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: at the forefront of bringing awareness of this massive impact 115 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: of climate change, especially to her community and her country. 116 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: Born in a beautiful fishing town in the Philippines, Baldo 117 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 1: and our family were hit hard by the twenty thirteen 118 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: super typhoon. I remember this. Do you remember that a 119 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: huge typhoon that happened there in the mass destruction? Uh, 120 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: And I remember so many people being missing. I also remember, 121 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: because as a social worker is a adoptee, there's this 122 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: conversation of trafficking happening because of these types of huge disasters, 123 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: and and uh, young children being essentially orphaned during this time. 124 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: But weird that I remember that part. But yeah, they 125 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: displaced and destroyed her entire village and many communities around her. 126 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: Uh And though they have dealt with storms and natural 127 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: disasters before, it's one of the deadliest typhoons in history 128 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: even up till today, with over lives loss and so 129 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: many displaced and losing their entire way of life, as 130 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: well as the fact that many people are still missing. 131 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, um. And not only that, but the storms 132 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: continue to destroy the ecosystem that has continued to be affected, 133 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: and that makes the whole situation even more dangerous and dire. 134 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen, the Philippines was considered by Amnesty International 135 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: as one of the most at risk countries for the 136 00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: climate crisis. And as if that wasn't bad enough, there 137 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: sponsor around the world and within the Philippines government has 138 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: seemed fairly minimal and what is needed to help an 139 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: entire community and country, But Ubaldo wasn't having it. Instead, 140 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: she led the first youth climate strike in the Philippines 141 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,679 Speaker 1: and has become a public figure in protesting and bringing 142 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: awareness around the climate crisis. And she founded the Youth 143 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: Leaders for Environmental Action Federation, which is a quote youth 144 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,119 Speaker 1: led organization based in Eastern vicias that aims to mentor 145 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: use individuals and organizations in climate advocacy and uh, she 146 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: has been educating used in locals about the climate crisis 147 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: and the impact of global policies on climate change. Yeah, 148 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: it's pretty phenomenal to see when she speaks on it 149 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: and especially what she is doing uh in activism. And 150 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: yet she's focusing a lot on the youth, and I 151 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: think that's very smart. We kind of focus on the youth, 152 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: and she does this on a global level as well. 153 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: She's spoken at the u n f c c c 154 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: uh CP twenty one in Paris and the C twenty 155 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: five in Madrid. She was a part of the Climate 156 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: Justice Liability public hearing in New York and eighteen and 157 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: was selected as the Philippines representative at the Hashtag Youth 158 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: for Climate Hashtag Driving Ambition event in Milan, where she 159 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 1: was able to discuss ideas and specific climate crisis proposals. 160 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: So she's doing a lot to try to talk about 161 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: the policies. She was appointed as the coordinator for the 162 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: Philippines in our country at the u ND Climate Change 163 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: Conference for Youth in Glasgow last November. And Yeah, she 164 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 1: does her advocacy even under the threat of danger. According 165 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: to a recent Global Witness dot org report in September, 166 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: quote in twenty six until the end of hundred sixty 167 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: six land and environment defenders have been killed, and it 168 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: stated in one it was reported at least twenty nine 169 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: people were killed as well. So there's a lot to 170 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: be said that this is very, very dangerous work. They 171 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: even talked about the fact that, yeah, Cole as a 172 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: part of the big conversation piece, if they were to 173 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 1: talk about climate crisis, a part of what is happening 174 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: and how the government makes money would be called into 175 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: question yep. But she has not slowed down. Instead, she 176 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: sees that representation for her country is something that is 177 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: much needed. In this conversation, she said, I want to 178 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: bring the voices and stories of the youth and communities 179 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: from the front line to the global arena and to 180 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: show the human face of the climate crisis. People on 181 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: the front line should be part of the decision making processes. 182 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: Their voices should be heard, listen to and considered negotiations 183 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: and decision making processes, especially on things that involve us. 184 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: As for the danger she faces, she says being a 185 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: climate activist in the Philippines. I've been scared from my 186 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: own safety, But I also think about the things we 187 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: have achieved so far and why we are still even here. 188 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 1: As long as our country is still vulnerable, we should 189 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: still fight for me. It's a form of survival. But 190 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: also being in this movement is being privileged. Not everyone 191 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: has the time and capacity to be in this movement 192 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: because they have to work in order to feed their families. 193 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: And yeah, she does talk about how within her village, 194 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 1: specifically because they were fishers, uh, that the constant storms 195 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: would push out the fish further and further into the ocean, 196 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: and that that would cause them more danger because they 197 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: would have to be in these smaller boats that could 198 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: capsize and or be caught up in the storm while 199 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: they're fishing, and how much more danger it puts them 200 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: in because of all of that, And she continues to say, 201 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: and when I have received anonymous threat and intimidation, at first, 202 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 1: I felt like I was being heard and a ticket 203 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: as a positive. I wasn't scared until they try to 204 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: go for my family, And yeah, that is so so 205 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: I can't imagine, yeah, yeah, um. And the advice she 206 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: would give to the young activists seeking to make change. 207 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: Don't ever underestimate your power to make a change. I 208 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 1: know those are big words, but if you want to 209 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: be part of the movement, you're already a part of it. 210 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: Every single one of us doing something for the environment 211 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: is already a selfless move because you're not just doing 212 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: that for yourself and your community. You're doing it for us, 213 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: the people who have already suffered from the brunt of 214 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: the climate crisis. Right. So thank you from one person 215 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: who did not take this seriously enough and I don't 216 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: see the massive impact like you do.
