00:00I'm going to try this one, have you tried it?

00:10No, I haven't tried it yet.

00:12You haven't tried it?

00:14No.

00:30No, I haven't.

00:58So here we say rich countries would have to pay up.

01:02Pay up for their climate debt.

01:05They owe us big time, they find money for wars,

01:08they find money for supporting the fossil fuel industry,

01:12but they say that they don't have money for climate action.

01:16I'm calling out that bull in this cup.

01:33It may look ridiculous to you that we are out here snapping our fingers

01:38and just humming instead of shouting and chanting at the top of our voices,

01:43but this is the most that we've been allowed to.

01:46We have been allowed to stage our protest by snapping our fingers and just humming,

01:53which is absurd, but we take whatever space we can

01:57because we know that the powers that be would want to silence us,

02:03but that will not stop us.

02:05We continue to assert in whatever form, in whatever space.

02:24What we see out of these negotiations is a lack of political will from developed countries.

02:30They need to show the money in terms of ground space finance.

02:34Without that, we cannot deal with a climate crisis.

02:45It's really challenging and painful that we can't really express ourselves with our voices.

02:55We do it with our bodies, we do it with our throat.

02:59We do it through the solidarity and the means we are given.

03:03We do it through our water protectors and land defenders.

03:06That, in fact, if we reckon with that, we must reckon with the bodies of our Mother Earth.

03:15What kind of society does that?

03:17Who breathed in the hot house?

03:20Who breathed in the hot house of the climate negotiations?

03:25We are the so-called civil society.

03:33We are the people that, in many ways, have not been allowed to take a stand.

03:40So I'm also a part of this meeting here.

03:47They have asked us to come here to speak.

03:52To bring our peoples from throughout the world here to this Conference of the Parties.

03:58To you, to me, to the global community.

04:02And rest assures, needed to address climate injustices.

04:08Leave the West.

04:12Leave the West.

04:14Leave the West.

04:18Power to the people.

04:23Power to the people.

04:25The people have the power.

04:27Because the people have the power.

04:29We have spent $30 billion on CCSF.

04:36But clearly, it's rising the fossil fuel industry.

04:41I'm not surprised. Are you surprised?

04:44No.

04:46I'm not surprised because the fossil fuel industry...

04:48Do we ask the arsonists to put out the fire?

04:52No.

04:54Do we ask the tobacco industry...

05:02Lay up. Lay up. Lay up for climate finance.

05:09We are going to keep shouting out our votes and our communities.

05:13Please welcome, Mariana...
