Is here good?

That works.

Okay.

What happens when the corporations
that control our world

tell us we have to go to 2.1, 2.2?

We can't.

Is there anything you need?

For people to listen.

Hologram going live in three, two...

I was born in 2015,

when the world went to Paris
and was issued a warning.

Scientists told us way back then
that if the average temperature on Earth

increased beyond 1.5 degrees Celsius,

there would be devastating consequences.

And they were right. Just look around.

Today is July 16th, 2037.

The highly anticipated
climate change meeting, COP42,

continues today in Israel
amidst urgent cries for action and hope--

Yet here we are in 2037

considering the possibility
of an increase of 2 degrees.

No!

World markets posted record gains today,

with demand for batteries
and pharmaceuticals leading the way...

But what happens after two?

What happens when the corporations
that are destroying our world

say that our economies will fail

if we don't allow the temperatures to rise
by 2.1 or 2.2 degrees?

Nick Bilton, CEO of Alpha Industries,

is rumored to have invested in a new
casino project above the Arctic Circle.

Wherever the future leads,
we know we're going there together.

Bilton's partner in the enterprise is
none other than controversial developer,

you-know-who.

Friends,
Nick Bilton is not coming to save us.

No!

We must save ourselves.

Inside that building right now, the powers
that be are negotiating your future.

But you can't negotiate with a fire.

Or a flood.

Or a famine.

If we go to 2, it's the end of me and you!

If we go to 2, it's the end of me and you!

A priest, a rabbi and an imam
are all fishing together on a boat

in the middle of a lake.

And the priest realizes
he left his fishing rod in the car.

So the priest, he turns to his colleagues,
and he says, "Hey, I'll be right back."

He gets out of the boat.
He walks across the water to the beach.

He goes to the car. He gets back
across the water and gets into the boat.

The rabbi is amazed.
The priest just walked on water.

About 30 minutes later, the imam says,
"I have to go to the toilet."

So, he stands up, steps out of the boat,
walks across the water to the beach,

finds the nearest men's room, walks back
across the water and gets into the boat.

The rabbi stares dumbfounded.

But he thinks, "Well,
my faith is at least as strong as theirs."

So, he says, "I'm a little thirsty.

There's a snack bar
over there on the beach. Excuse me."

He stands up, puts his feet in the water.
Splash. Sinks like a stone.

And then he--
-I told you that joke. That's my joke.

I love that joke.

And it's "refreshment stand,"
not "snack bar."

Are you sure you wanna make jokes
your first day as a rabbi?

Yeah. Well, first of all,
rabbis are supposed to tell jokes.

And secondly,
it's a perfect description of the job.

That's what I'm doing. I'm helping people
find a way through difficult passages.

That's what I do at the center.

How are you helping people with no homes

by sending them to other places
where they have no homes?

Dad, it's not their fault
they don't have homes. It's-- They were--

I gotta get this.

Hello, Junior.
-They were displaced.

Are you there yet?

Marshall, how long has it been like this?

I can barely breathe in this air.

So much smoke from the looting.

No, Ma. There's no looting.
That's forest fires in Eshtaol and Tzora.

When you were born,
we planted trees there in your honor.

I was hoping to go.

Well, maybe if you guys come back
and visit for the holidays,

the fires will be out and I can take you.

So, you're staying here?
That's what you've decided?

Yes, Ma. I told you, I wanna stay.

I know. And I'm telling you,
your father has other expectations.

There are laws, Junior.
That's all I'm saying.

If the land is designated as protected,
then there could be issues.

I have it on good authority

there will be exemptions
on this protected lands bullshit.

How do you know?

How do I know? I have an app
on my phone that tells me the future.

Don't be such a--
What do you call it? A putz.

If Mr. Bilton knows something ab--

No, I don't wanna discuss it on this line,
or any line, or email.

I'm gonna be back in Miami on Friday.
I can see you then.

Look, I wouldn't be here if Bilton
didn't want this to happen. Goodbye.

I'm not back till Mon--

Where is that?
-What?

Outside. That doesn't look like Russia.

It just says, "tropical."
I mean, I'm not even sure it exists.

Oh, shit! Look at it out there.

It's from the forest fire in Ozera.

The firemen just quit over wages,
and it's burning out of control.

750,000 acres.
That is happening right now.

Well then, good thing we're leaving.

Is there any special song
you want me to sing tomorrow?

Yes. One that makes people
wanna give me their money.

Protests have erupted in major cities

across Europe and the US today
over the perceived lack of progress

at the Tel Aviv climate talks.

Issues on the table at Tel Aviv
include strengthening prohibitions

against development in protected areas.

Could you turn this shit off?

Namaste, Hannah. Shall we begin?

Okay. Give me a minute.

No, we gotta keep going, Becca.

Why the fuck did I do this?

Get pregnant or take a job counting ravens
in the middle of the woods?

Maybe this is nature's way of telling us
to stop making babies.

Still an hour to the evac spot. Come on.

Shit. You were right.

We should've left yesterday.

Hey.
It's not your fault the wind shifted.

Great. It's Omar.

Are you gonna answer it?

And say what?

Sorry, I can't talk right now,

I'm in the middle of a forest fire
with your unborn son.

Come on.

Germany and Italy are
losing crops to drought and infestation.

Austria and Poland are dealing
with nationalist movements.

Raising the number of people
the EU is willing to take in right now

is a hard ask.

We need to focus on temperature.

So where do you suggest
we tell our people to go?

They have no water.

I think we'd all prefer
to solve the problems

that make people leave their homes
in the first place.

Agreed.

The goal here is consensus on temperature.

Keeping it below 2 degrees is critical.

If the temperature goes up
2 degrees or 10 degrees,

it doesn't matter if you have no water.

You catch more flies with honey.

Who are you right now?

An Algerian or a Frenchman?

We're willing to support certain proposals

related to temperature and carbon
as long as our basic needs are guaranteed.

Can you elaborate
on the term "basic needs"?

Unlimited refuge in Europe?

Water.

We'd like access to state of the art

desalinization
and purification technology.

And what do you mean by "access"?

The patents and designs developed
by Alpha Hydro Solutions.

You think Nicholas Bilton
is going to just give you his patents

because we ask nicely?

Okay. Drought leads to instability.

Look at Sudan in '24. Cape Town in '27.

Look at the west. Argentina, 2033--

Look here.
We have made such progress in the region.

Israel and a Palestinian state
are living side by side in peace,

but it can still all unravel so fast.

Is that a threat?

A threat?

No, it's an invitation.

I have to take that call. Okay?

We need water.

Mr. Bilton
does not give things away for free,

so we need to be prepared
for what he will ask for in return.

We have 3,000 reservations already.
Did I tell you who's doing the interiors?

You said Kanye. Still Kanye?
-Yeah! Yeah.

I put together a schedule.

From groundbreaking to grand opening,
nine months.

A wise man once said,

"What the bulldozers
and dump trucks do doesn't matter,

so long as they do a lot of it."

Can you believe these people?

Hard to imagine they can march
with their heads up their asses.

They say ice sheet in Greenland
is gonna break down the middle.

79N ice sheet.
-Great, we'll build there next.

They say three-meter sea level rise
by the end of the century.

"They"?
They also said the same thing about Miami.

All we did was make a fortune
retrofitting the buildings.

And guess what?
When it goes up another couple of inches,

we'll retro-fucking-fit again
and make even more money.

Here's what you need to know
about global warmings.

It will all go to shit at the end
of the century. One hundred percent.

We'll be dead. We'll have to miss it,

but we'll be smiling
in gold-plated coffins designed by Kanye.

So, let's focus on the now.

Top of the World Casino is gonna be
the best casino in the world

'cause there's nothing else like it.

Holy shit.

Would you look at that?

If we go to 2...

Thank God. The trolls finally shut her up.

So then you're planning to
keep it empty for the foreseeable future?

Never mind, Marshall. Forget it.

I'll go ride a bike
in the gym or something.

Yes, I understand.

At least there's no soot there.
-Yes, thank you.

Okay, here's the deal.

With the drought and the fires,

they think that filling the pool
would be insensitive.

They're worried about the protests.

They're using the pool water
to put out the forest fires?

A Lebanese man set himself on fire
at the camp yesterday.

Was he protesting me swimming laps?

I know you don't follow
this kind of stuff,

but a lawyer, David Buckel, in Brooklyn,
did the same thing in 2018.

Self-immolated to protest climate change.

And did it work? Does it ever work?
-Define "work."

It showed that the world is in pain.
That change is needed.

The world is always in pain,
and it never changes.

But to answer your question,
work is something you get paid for. A job.

And then there's how the world works.
-Well, I get paid in more than money.

Dad, the people here need me.

That's why I am planning
on staying in Israel.

The people who are lighting themselves
on fire need you?

Those people need psychiatric help
and fire extinguishers.

Why does nothing I say matter?
-You asked for my help.

You said you wanted to be a rabbi,
so I paid for you to come here,

now you're a rabbi.
-Yes, I appreciate that.

And then I set up the interview
at Temple Israel in Miami.

Don't remember asking you to do that one,
but okay.

I paid for the wood tick eradication
in their summer camp up in the Catskills

when the Ellenberg child got ill.

I appreciate that too.

And because of what I did for them,

they are now offering you
the position of Youth Rabbi.

That's how the world works.

I want to speak to my wife, please.

Low visibility along...

Hi, baby. Bad timing, I know.
-How long till they get to the hospital?

Let me call Dr. Kilmer to make sure--

She had to evacuate.
Her daughter's asthmatic.

BP 152 over 97. Dr. Shearer,
that's higher than we'd like it to be.

Who was that?

What's happening, Becca? I'm coming.

No, just stay where you are, okay?

We'll...
-How far along are you?

...just see what the doctor says, okay?

But you just told me...
-Thirty-one weeks.

...Dr. Kilmer isn't even there.

They just put her on oxygen.
I'll call you as soon as we land.

But she's going to be okay, right?

She's not in danger or anything?

Hello?
-Stop!

Let me through!

I am the alpha. I am the omega.

I am the air that you breathe
and the water that you drink.

I am Nick Bilton, and I own this planet.

Mr. Bilton?

In addition to the countries
previously mentioned, Mr. Bilton,

Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait
and Sudan would also be candidates

for the water desalinization patents.

The lawyers are reviewing
the legality of such an offering,

but Alpha Hydro Solutions
wanted you to know

that giving away the patents
would amount to a net loss

of over 2.7 billion euros.

Where are we at with the Arctic?

The Arctic Council is open
to your proposal on underwater mining,

pending UN approval.

I'd like to know the total amount of
acreage burning worldwide at this moment.

And I'd like to know
what our people think of 79N

and what it means for sea level change
in Mumbai, Guangzhou, and...

and Miami.

Yes, Mr. Bilton.

Models differ on the future
of the 79N glacier in Greenland.

Although all agree the giant glacier is
melting due to extreme heat and friction,

it is unclear if a catastrophic collapse
is days away, or possibly years.

Any idea what she's watching?

Fuck if I know. She's probably shopping.

If you really wanna know,
I am watching the video for my new single.

It's just me
in front of a fireplace on this fur rug,

and I'm wearing nothing
but whipped cream and a smile.

And then in one hand I'm holding
a riding crop, and in the other, a leash.

And there are these four supermodels.

And there's this really nasty beat.

You would like that, wouldn't you?

She likes fur?
I know a guy who still gets polar bear.

They have a thing in Alaska now
called a pizzly bear,

comes from a grizzly bear
fucking a polar bear.

A friend of mine shot one last year.
Any bears on the island?

No, mainly just rocks.

The construction guy says
sometimes a walrus swims by.

You want me to ask about pizzly?

Walrus?
-Yeah.

Maybe the casino
should offer safaris as well.

It could be you with this great big bear,
waving at people,

"Come to the Top of the World
and make a killing."

Go ahead. Check it out. It's super hot.

Record heat is being blamed
for the spread of wildfires worldwide.

Over 20 million acres have already burned
in that--

Just talk to me
about something. Just distract me.

Okay, let me think

Fuck, anything! Just--

The lunch you had
with your mother last week,

you never told me how that went?
How's she doing?

It never happened.
-What?

I had a job interview.

With who?

Menagerie2100.

Why would you do that?

Because
everything's fucking dying around us.

Please, just distract me, please.

Just tell me anything.
Tell me a story. Pl--

Okay. Here's a story about ravens.

Long ago,
back at the beginning of the world,

Gray Eagle was the guardian
of the sun and the moon and the stars.

And back then,
Raven was a snow-white bird.

And one day, Gray Eagle's daughter
invited Raven into her father's house.

The total global population is projected
to reach nine billion this year.

Those people are the ones in need...
-Hey. I'm flying home.

...of help, not the leaders of the world's
largest corporations who we must finally--

Are you crazy?
You go now and you miss Bilton.

We're so close. We need you here, Omar.

She's at the hospital.

So then she's safe, no?

I need to be there.

And on what planet will you
and your new family live?

What are you doing?

Going to be with my wife.
You can have my vote.

If we go to 2, it's the end of me and you!

If we go to 2, it's the end of me and you!

Welcome to 80 degrees north
and 55 degrees east.

Just a few years ago,
this was all covered with ice.

There's really nothing up here.

Exactly. That's what makes it
a great place to build.

It's all the nothing you could hope for,

but in a year,
you'll be able to see it from here.

Ten stories, tropical gardens,
floor-to-ceiling smart windows.

Let's hope.

Hope? Fuck hope. Let's build.

Mr. Bilton is concerned
with this ice sheet in Greenland.

That's the ice sheet
I mentioned to you earlier.

Nick really see it as a problem?
-One of two problems.

Two?

I'll show you the other.

And again, there's a splash.

And as he's going down for the third time,

the priest turns to the imam and says...

"Do you think we should show him
where the rocks are?"

I left law school a few years back

because I realized that the world
didn't need another Jewish lawyer,

much to the chagrin of my father.

But we live in a time of crisis.

Not far from here,

environmentally displaced people
are in need of food and water.

And rest assured,

any leader who is not trying to improve
the situation is complicit.

It's like Elie Wiesel said,

"We must take sides.

Neutrality helps the oppressor,
never the victim."

Controversy erupted today at COP42

as tech tycoon Nick Bilton
was added to the list of speakers

at the conference's closing ceremony.

Bilton has drawn the ire
of environmental groups in the past,

most recently over his rumored plans to
partner in a hotel development project--

Flight 89 to Newark International Airport

is now boarding at gate 48A.

Last year at Davos,

Mr. Bilton said the following about
business and environmental regulation.

It is entirely possible that
the limits we have created for business

are also limiting our ability
to solve the problem of climate change.

This is bullshit!

What the hell are they doing here?

My sister went through all of this
with the State Department!

Ben Zucker and the lawyers
went over all of this!

This is just-- This is part of the--
What the fuck is it called?

The United Nations Convention for the
Law of the Seas and the Arctic Council.

Right! China aren't even on the council.

And last time I looked at a map,
they're nowhere near here.

Actually, they have permanent
observer status on the council.

You're the chair, right?
I mean, Russia runs the council.

Only until the end of the year.

You can see the issue right here.

Our parcel is connected by an underwater
ridge to an area they claim rights to.

You should really look at this.
They kind of are connected.

No, they're not connected, babe,

any more than Africa
and South America are connected.

Although I'm sure you could find
some asshole who feels the need

to put them back together like a puzzle.

The Russians have been here
for years, okay?

The Canadians, the Danish.

Back when the US was dicking around with
the green wet dream, I was planning this.

Pompeo gave a speech about it in 2019.

Did someone forget
to take their meds today?

Please don't tell me you woke up this
morning and decided to quit being famous

so that you could become a geologist

or whatever the fuck you would need to be
to know they're connected.

You invited me.

I'm gonna call my sister.

The boat's called Bing Zhànshì.

The "Ice Warrior."

Wow. I'm impressed.

You speak very well.

A lot of my fans speak it.

Does he?

Are you kidding?

Hey, it's me.

You're probably asleep,
but I'm waking up to a world of shit.

So, I'm up at the island, and apparently
there's a dispute with the Chinese.

Someone is gonna turn a lot of profit
from these glaciers melting,

and it's either gonna be the US or China.

So if you are feeling patriotic,
I suggest you call me back.

I need you to get in touch
with Secretary of State Rubio.

Tell him I'm up at the Arctic Circle
with my pants around my ankles.

Fuck!

What is this?

What does it say?

It's Arabic for mazel tov.

All that means mazel tov?

Well, the rest of it
is the kids saying they love your son.

So cute.
-They're planning a party

in honor of Rabbi Zucker tomorrow.

Well, we're both excited to see the work
that you and Marshall have been doing.

We're discussing a second facility.

I think Rabbi Zucker would make
a great director of faith-based services.

I'm sure he would be,

but he's already accepted a position
as Youth Rabbi in Miami.

Dad, I don't want to move back to Florida.
How many times do I gotta tell you?

There are people in Miami, people
with whom I have long relationships with,

who are offering Marshall an opportunity.

You can't turn it off
for even a single moment, Ben.

The joke about the rocks,
I taught him that. Excuse me.

Hello, Junior.

I think when he sees the work
that you've done, he'll understand.

Let's hope so.

I wanna go fix my face. It's so hot here.
-Yeah.

Excuse me.
-All right, Mom.

Wait, I'm confused.
You're going to Florida?

Yes, sir.

How do I get the Chinese out of my Arctic?

The Chinese?
I know nothing about the Chinese.

Well, they're parked out in the bay,
taunting me.

Junior, I'm not a lawyer.
I'm just your business manager.

But if they're not actually on the island,
they may be within their rights.

It sounds like we may have
a real problem here

with the Arctic Council.
-Ben, Ben.

You don't call Bilton with problems,
you call him with solutions,

which is why I just called my sister.

Yes, I know Bilton is
the richest man on earth, I do,

but what I don't know is if that
puts him in a position to change treaties.

Help! Somebody call a doctor!
Hurry, now. Please.

Ben. He's Nicholas fucking Bilton.

He can change you and I
into poor people.

Mom? Mom, can you hear me?

Hey, Mom, squeeze my hand
if you can hear me.

Hey, Mama. Mom.
-Isabel.

Is somebody coming?

Dad, do something!

Get help! Mom!

She has a pulse, Rabbi.

Come on, Mom. Mom, stay with me.

It's all going as planned.

He's still under the impression that you
are interested in the hotel business

rather than what's beneath the ground.

Quite frankly, he is clueless.

All we need now is UN approval.

One more thing, sir.

Do you know if he's romantically involved
with the woman trav--

Delete message.

Chief Counsel Hampton for you.

Send them in.

Are we really considering
waiving our patents?

Have you seen what's happening?

Markets, please.

Nickel is up 5.6%. Cobalt up 7.7.
Copper, way up.

All the base metals.

You were right. It's the fires.

The world is a desperate but predictable
animal. And it wants to run on batteries.

That makes Tel Aviv easier.

It's all just one giant, self-regulatory,
living feedback loop, isn't it?

Greenland, please.

And here we have our ice
turning into water. Adirondacks, please.

Trees turning into fire.

The solution miles from the problem.

Or it's all just chaos out there.

Either view presents us an opportunity.

The man whose house is on fire is
incredibly easy to negotiate with, Mikey.

Didn't they teach you that in law school?

Time to go.

Yeah, it's your brother calling again.

Did you know that China has
a permanent seat on the Arctic Council?

Did you?
-Do you expect me to wear this?

Call me back.

Do you?
-That depends.

Do you really expect to get paid?

Because if you do, let me remind you
of the deal that we both agreed on.

You would dress up
as a Christmas ornament,

sing your little song,
do your little dance,

I stick a shovel in the ground,
we all go home.

Next year, when you have
a 100-night residency at my casino,

wear what the fuck you want.

As long as you don't run afoul
of a global superpower.

What are you doing?

I wanted that one.

That one?

Okay. I'll get you another one.

In fact, you can have any rock you want
on the fucking island

as long as it fits on the plane.

It was gold.

What?
-Yeah. Jordan gave it to me.

He says it's everywhere,
if you know where to look for it.

Gold, copper, nickel.
Yeah, and there's one other one.

Thank you, Doctor.

I'm sorry I don't have better news.

Here's what the doctor's saying, Dad.

She has
a subdural hematoma from the fall. Okay?

Her temporal lobe appears to be involved,

so that is why she can't speak.

And so far,
the extent of the damage is unclear.

I'm sorry, Dad.

Dad, do you understand the--
-I'm on the phone.

Just pull everything we have on
the Arctic development deal. Everything.

As well as all relevant law
of the sea statutes.

Yes, and--
-Dad! Hang up the phone!

Marshall! That man and his family
have been a client for 25 years!

Twenty-- That woman upstairs
who can't move has been your wife for 40!

What?
Marshall, where are you going? Marshall!

Are you still there?

We may not be able to stop extinction,

but what if we could bring
these creatures back?

Using the latest genomic technology,

Menagerie2100 will save
what nature cannot.

We are committed to gene-capturing
the animals and plants you love,

and the ones you never think about.

We project that by the end of the century,

Menagerie2100 will be able to maintain

Lack of oxygen, hypoxia.
He wanted to come out.

Feel like he was safer inside.

He's lucky he has such a strong mother.

He landed.

He'll be here soon.

Thank you so much for staying.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

On the helicopter,

you said you interviewed
with Menagerie2100.

So they decide what species survive?

Give up on now. Hope for the future.

And you wanna help with that?

Come on. I mean, you see the numbers.

The ravens are going away.

The bees are almost gone.

We're on track
to lose a third of life on Earth.

Everyone wants to play God but God,
I guess.

Maybe it's better than playing
funeral director for the Park Service.

I don't know.

The fires are spreading further north.

All the way up to Whitefeather Forest.

They're evacuating Pikangikum.
-Oh, my God.

My mother wants to know
where she can go that's safe.

I'm not sure safe exists anymore.

Here, take this.

I think it helped.

Keep it.

Ask your friends at Menagerie
if they have a plan to bring us back.

Shit.

So, are we groundbreaking
or rock collecting?

Nickel, copper, what was the third?
Cobalt? Was it cobalt?

I don't remember.
-Because that's why the Chinese showed up.

Batteries.
That's what they want, batteries.

That look like copper to you? That line?

I don't know. I'm not a miner.
I'm a singer and an actress.

Great.

Then there's just a chance I'm wandering
around a beach staring at fucking rocks.

Here's an idea,
why don't you ask somebody who knows?

How come Jordan knows and you don't?

Okay. So, if Jordan knows, Bilton knows.

And I bet you our deal is just for
hospitality development only, not mining.

Then we're out.

We're just out. Lost between the laws.

Just bent over by the fine print.
Castrated by contracts.

'Cause who's going to stay in a hotel
with a view of a fucking copper mine?

So does this mean I'm not singing?

That line there, that's the heart monitor.

I don't know. They seem really concerned.

We knew the risks, Becca.
We are all filled with plastic now.

Maybe my sperm is defective.

No, I don't think this was you.

I think I did this to him.

Did what?

He's here.

I'm here. You're here.

I was out in the woods saving birds.

I should have been protecting him.

And I left a climate summit
to be with my family.

Are we bad people?

I guess we can ask him when he grows up.

It's okay.

Okay.

I called the chairman of the board
at Temple Israel in Miami.

They want to introduce you officially
to the congregation

during the High Holidays.
-Dad.

I bought you a ticket,

but they're gonna need your
passport number and your vaccine status,

because goddamn dengue is back and--
-Dad, can you listen to me for one minute?

There are people here who depend on me.

You saw those kids.

You have a mother who's in the hospital.

She's got a brain injury.
She can't use her arms.

She can't form sentences.

She's gonna need a great deal of care
back in Miami.

I understand.

Do you? Do you, Marshall?
Do you know how much that woman loves you?

Because if you did,
you would come back home with us.

I love her.

"Honor your father and your mother,

so your days may be long upon
the land of the Lord your God gives you."

Dad, what is happening right now?
You're quoting the Ten Commandments to me.

Do you realize that--

that she would never even have been
here walking around through the smoke

if it wasn't for you?

Dad.

Glad she didn't have to hear you say that.

I really am glad that her brain does not
have to try and make sense of that one,

because mine sure can't.

She needs you.

You gonna answer that?

Are you?

I need you!

I need you!

The world is on fire!
And Bilton is a liar!

Hell is upon us, ladies and gentlemen.

We are living in a disco inferno

where the music is cooking
on a dance floor right beneath our feet.

The oven below is slow and low,
and we are still not learning.

Where did the undying yearning go?

2 degrees.

2 degrees will cook the fool out of you.

What are you willing to do?

The world's on fire!

What are you willing to do?

Net-zero now...

How many more?

Don't give a fuck about how.
-Hey, sir.

Net-zero now.
-Net-zero.

I say, save the planet somehow.

What's it gonna take?
-Net-zero now.

I say, save the planet somehow.

Or it will save itself from you.

I spoke privately to a delegate

who expressed their frustration
as we enter the final evening of COP42,

where the real possibility
of raising the temperature ceiling

above the previously agreed upon limit
is now up for debate.

Both the United States and China, as well
as Russia and India,

seem open to this idea...

I wanted to tell you
how I decided to vote.

It's all become very complicated.

What does that mean, "complicated"?
What decision did you make?

I think I may have made a mistake.

Please make your way--

You need to tell me,
what decision did you make?

I fear I traded
the future for the present.

I agreed to an increase.

The world is on fire!
And Bilton is a liar!

It's done.
All parties agreed to our proposal.

Exemptions for patents.

You never really cared about the casino.

The whole island could end up underwater.

My father liked to gamble. I used to go
with him to Monaco when I was young.

He thought he was so very clever
when he beat the odds.

More clever, I think, to control the odds.

The lawyers would like you not to mention
the Arctic mining exemptions,

at least not until after the vote.

Of course not. Today's not about
the exemptions. Today's about water,

and how Alpha is solving the drought
and the resulting refugee problem.

Tomorrow, however--
-The world is on fire!

And Bilton is a liar!

Hey, Bilton!

The world is on fire!
And Bilton is a liar!

This is on you!

Fuck.

When Raven saw the sun
and moon and stars and fresh water,

he knew what he should do.

He waited for his chance.

And when no one was looking,

he stole all of them.

And a brand of fire too.

It made so much light.

I don't know what to do, Mom.

That he was able to fly far out
to an island...

in the middle of the ocean.

And when the sun set...

he fastened the moon up in the sky

and hung the stars around
in different places.

Bullshit.

And then when he flew over the land,

he dropped all the water he had stolen.

It fell to the ground

and became the source of all the streams
and lakes in the world.

And then Raven flew on.

The smoke from the fire he was carrying
blew over his white feathers

and turned them black.

And when his bill began to burn,
he dropped the fire.

Raven's feathers never were white again
once they'd been blackened by the smoke.

And that is why Raven is a black bird.

I like that story.

It isn't mine.
I borrowed it from a friend.

Bullshit.

You are one lucky walrus.

If I had my gun, you would be...

If we go to 2, it's the end of me and you!

If we go to 2, it's the end--

Good evening, everyone.

It is an honor to be here and to be
included in these vital conversations.

Around the turn of this century,

climate change was described
as a symptom of capitalism.

A symptom.

I am here to suggest
that capitalism is also the cure.

So, today I can announce that I will make
the patents for desalinization

and purification of water available to any
country that can demonstrate the need.

Additionally--

Additionally,
Alpha will join the Tel Aviv Accord

in committing to keeping the global
temperature increase in this century

as close to 2 degrees Celsius as possible.

With a ceiling of 2.3 degrees.

Thank you.

What does an increase in global
temperatures by 2 degrees Celsius

mean to you and me?

It means that when
the temperature goes up,

our imagination must increase even more.

It means that when the sea
level rises, we must rise up as well.

It means that when forest fires
obscure the horizon

we must look toward each other
to find our way forward.

We cannot give up and go home
for one simple reason.

We already are home.
This is our only home.

We're not fucking giving up.
