Language Shouldn’t Be A Barrier To Climate Action | Sophia Kianni | TED Countdown
Most scientific literature is written only in English, creating an alarming knowledge gap for the 75 percent of the world who don’t speak it. That’s a big problem for climate change — because it’s hard to take action on something you don’t understand. With Climate Cardinals, an international youth-led nonprofit that’s working to make the…

I’m quite suprised that so many people don’t know about climate change.

About 6 billion people on this planet deal with more immediate issues, limiting both foresight and the ability to deal with then immediate issues.
It’s embarrassing that a German politician floated the idea of turning nuclear back on after actively dismantling renewable energy expansion him self most of the last 15 years.
(On the the Ukrainian issue and gas availabilities, failing to mention his preference for centralised power infrastructure got us into this mess after Fukushima without making easy military targets)

80% of articles are written entirely in English? But that could mean the articles are originally written entirely in English. The IPCC report is very large. Who can translate it and who can pay the cost? Many languages are too primitive to permit a translation of the IPCC report. Most people speaking English know about climate change from the media. NOT from reading the IPCC reports. May I suggest the ignorant 40% are not interested anyway.

well said!! this issue is prominently highlighted in my country, where indigenous people or communities in low income areas are the ones who faced disproportionate effects of climate change

I don’t think it is so much a language barrier as it is an authoritarian regime barrier. Why aren’t the progressives championing climate change and human rights where it is needed most like in Iran, Venezuela, Russia etc.? Because unlike in the west, there are consequence in doing so over there. Also, most of the climate change narrative is counterproductive.

I support your right to raise awareness. However, I don’t believe the vast majority of us (myself included) understand what the consequences will be to make a measurable difference that we can even measure objectively.
My concern is that we have bigger holes in our proverbial boat and will be putting more holes in it to fix a pin hole leak.
Feel free to publicly debate your case with multiple experts on the topic and I will happily reconsider where I stand on this (one of many) issues at that time. Thanks.

I’ve never heard a TED audience with such passionate cheers. That’s the level of passion we need when we discuss and combat climate change. Also, as the field of science communication grows, it only makes sense that we have a growth in the field of translation. Thank you for raising awareness.

This is all fine and good, especially if people of another language, motivated toward addressing climate change, live in a democratic country where they can vote for supportive candidates.
However, it will always be the powerful who are the ones who can actually make the needed changes…. And those would be the world leaders in government and business! And there are plenty of English speakers (or have the resources to translate) in that bunch already! So leaders… Wake up already because this is affecting you already… and your children now and in their futures!!

4:10 Indigenous people all around the world are definately doing their best to protect the nature, like they have been doing for centuries. I’m sure it’s not their actions that’s hurting Earth as much as the “modern educated society” does.

In my country, esp in rural areas, people don’t care much about the environment. And when I told my neighbor to take out the rubbish in the right place, she said “What’s for :Đ.”. My friends are not better;-;, some of them just throw trash onto the water or on the road. I feel like their parents never teach them about climate justice or even some adults don’t like protecting the environment :Đ
