1
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,120
Speaker 1: In season one of Drill, you met the exon scientists

2
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 1: who wanted to save the world from climate disaster and

3
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: heard the story of an industry that spent millions to

4
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 1: create climate denial. This season, you'll meet some of the

5
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: people being directly impacted by our already changing climate.

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 2: In California, fishing station for the dungeness crab has been

7
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 2: delayed due to high levels of a dangerous neurotoxin. It's

8
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: an environmental problem scientists blame warmer waters and an economic one.

9
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 2: Dungeness crab is a sixty million dollar a year industry.

10
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: The West Coast crab fishery is one of the most

11
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: sustainable in the world, but fishermen here have nearly been

12
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: put out of business by warming oceans.

13
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 3: We're asking these guys to sit around and either make

14
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 3: no money or make hardly any money doing part time jobs.

15
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 3: You know, but they have to be on call because

16
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 3: we never know when the season is going to start,

17
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 3: so it's really hard for them to work during these closures,

18
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 3: and our boats are sitting idle for three, four or

19
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 3: five months at a time. Now.

20
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: If you think this is just about crabs and fishermen, though,

21
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: think again.

22
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 4: The same time that there's this public promulgation of doubt,

23
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 4: you have internally the companies making enormous investments in their

24
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 4: own infrastructure and planning for the future, so for example,

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 4: raising the levels of offshore oil platforms to account for

26
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 4: sea level rise, strengthening them to account for increased storm severity,

27
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 4: and investing in the technology to access a warming and

28
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 4: melting Arctic.

29
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: This small, tight knit community just became the first industry

30
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: to sue big oil. Find out how and why it's

31
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: a big deal. On hot Water, a new drilled series

32
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: coming soon. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen

33
00:01:51,720 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: so you won't miss it.
