00:04Have you ever imagined this scene?
00:06Or is it possible to imagine a day when in southern Portugal...
00:11A group of workers wearing headlamps and holding scissors
00:14In the pitch black of the middle of the night
00:19Harvesting in the vineyard
00:21So why are they going through all this trouble?
00:23Why work at midnight?
00:24Is it not okay to work during the day?
00:25Because it's too hot during the day.
00:27EU climate monitoring agency says
00:29Western Europe experienced its hottest summer on record this year.
00:33August was the hottest month on record globally.
00:37Daytime temperatures soared to 40 degrees Celsius.
00:39A person simply cannot withstand the sun.
00:42It's much cooler there at 28 degrees Celsius in the middle of the night.
00:45High temperatures also caused the grapes to ripen earlier.
00:49The harvest started two weeks earlier than in previous years.
00:52In other words, climate change is no longer just a prediction.
00:55It has truly changed humanity.
00:58Especially the daily routine of this vineyard.
01:01Initially, these 20-odd people were from Portugal.
01:04Workers in Romania and Southeast Asia
01:06I really hate working in the middle of the night.
01:08But what was unexpected was...
01:09This change was forced out by the high temperature
01:12It brought unexpected gains.
01:14The winery's production director, Nevis, said
01:17Grapes delivered at night are fresher
01:19Fermentation starts relatively slowly.
01:21On the contrary, it is more able to extract aroma.
01:24The quality of the wine has also improved.
01:25Another interesting point is...
01:27The grapes are fermented at night and during the day.
01:29When the wine is running at full speed
01:31That's exactly when the solar panels are most efficient at generating electricity.
01:35So nothing is wasted.
01:37However, experts also cautioned...
01:38This practice is currently only affordable for large-scale liquor stores in the south.
01:42Small and medium-sized manufacturers will still find it difficult to keep up for the time being.
01:47The problem in Portugal is simply that it's too hot during the day.
01:50There were also unexpected gains from brewing.
01:52But Bhutan at the foot of the Himalayas
01:54The problems caused by global warming are enormous.
01:57There are more than 600 glaciers in northern Bhutan.
02:01Climate warming is causing glaciers to melt rapidly.
02:03The meltwater accumulated to form one glacial lake after another.
02:07What blocked the lake water was a pile of fragile pebbles.
02:11This natural water-retaining maggot
02:13If it collapses
02:14The entire lake's water will instantly rush downstream.
02:17This is what is known as glacial lake flooding.
02:22A similar accident occurred in Bhutan in 1994.
02:26It took 21 lives
02:27Currently, 17 glacial lakes in Bhutan are listed as potentially dangerous.
02:31worst case
02:33It could release up to 53 million cubic meters of water.
02:37The nearest communities were affected by the alarms and floods.
02:41There are only a few minutes left to escape.
02:43Therefore, the team at the early warning center is monitoring this water level in shifts 24 hours a day.
02:48Sound the alarm immediately if any unusual activity is detected.
02:51At the end of last month
02:52A deadly glacier collapse recently occurred on the border between Nepal and Tibet.
02:56flood
02:57For Bhudan
02:58This is the most real warning bell.
03:01But here?
03:02There is a very ironic place
03:03Bhutan is one of the few countries in the world with negative carbon emissions.
03:08This means that its forests absorb more carbon dioxide than the rest of the country emits.
03:13More
03:14Logically, it should bear the least responsibility for global warming.
03:19But ironically, it was precisely this kind of disaster that struck them first.
03:24Not only did the chief glaciologist, Karma, say
03:26The country's largest glacier is disappearing at a rate of 30 to 35 meters per year.
03:31retreat
03:32Even small glaciers recede by more than ten meters a year.
03:35It's gotten so fast it's heartbreaking.
03:39From the working hours of vineyards to floods in snow-capped mountains, these are all warnings for humanity.
03:45Don't forget about the children.
03:46The latest UNICEF report states that
03:49By 2025, there will be over 171 million students in 106 countries worldwide.
03:55Schooling interrupted by climate disasters such as heat waves, storms, and floods
03:59One in ten students is affected.
04:04What's even more heartbreaking is...
04:05With schools closed, many girls will have to stay home and do housework.
04:09Hire someone to fetch water.
04:11The risks of same-sex marriage will also increase.
04:13Many girls after the school reopened
04:15There's no going back.
04:16The report estimates...
04:17Reading, writing, and calculation abilities are declining.
04:20This could potentially provide these children with a lifetime income.
04:22Total losses at least $200 billion
04:25This is equivalent to approximately RM812.5 billion.
04:29Moreover, three-quarters of the affected students
04:32From already impoverished low- and middle-income countries
04:35Even nighttime harvesting is good
04:3724-hour surveillance is also good
04:39They're all just adapting to this challenge.
04:41Don't forget those who truly need saving.
04:43And those children sitting in the guest room.
