Tuvalu at Copenhagen: 'The Fate Of My Country Rests In Your Hands'

[MrDJAK28]

hey fuck all of you who saying shit about tuvalu you dont know what its like to have your country being taken away by some countries who dont give a shit about what they are doing to the environment and that Ian fry is the man at least he is doing something about it why isnt a tuvaluan representing the country you know why??ill tell you why because they talk too much and no action...hey america make an effort and fix this mess you left your rusty tanks on my island and your rusty bullets.

[delryn256]

If oil reserves were suddenly found under Tuvalu, you can bet the fucking Yanks would have 50,000 troops on the ground in 5 seconds. Since the country is small and meaningless to the fat cats of the major pollution causing countries, nothing will be done. Not just for Tuvalu. I mean nothing will be done until the sea levels rise enough to threaten some multi-millions dollar investment properties on coasts around the world.

[atanke07]

with all due respect, I would have preferred a Tuvaluan native to plead for our case instead of Mr Fry who reside elsewhere. Because this should have been delivered from the HEART with heartfelt emotions...I love you Tuvalu. By the way we are still standing while the world around us is belted by natural disasters and civil unrest. Tuvalu mo te Atua.

[adrenalynn22]

This is an amazing speech and one that will be revisited in history, I'm sure. To the non-believers of global warming; whether it is real or not - WHAT IS SO BAD ABOUT WANTING TO CONTROL EMISSIONS LEVELS AND OUR ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT? I think it's absolutely ABSURD that people spend hours debating whether or not there is climate change - who the f. cares! What's so bad about wanting to be environmentally responsible that are getting people offended?

[waterforpeople]

Allowing a country to die all for your GD money. Humans make me sick.

[cymonebreathe]

Shame that the whole world was waiting on just a few people to make up their damn minds to do the right thing and do it swiftly.

[SteveWrathall]

Meanwhile research by University of Auckland has shown that most Pacific atolls have increased in size over the last 60 years. Another phoney catastrophe bites the dust.

[Rustyshackleford08]

HAHAHA!

Islands are getting bigger and thanks to Climategate now we know this was all a tax scam to decrease the population. Oh well.

[LaraJinnJedi]

I WAS THERE. Fry is a hero & everyone was moved. Naysayers can deny it, but THEY WON'T CHANGE FACTS: climate change is already here, the evidence is visible, & almost all scientists accept it. The question is not "Does it exist" but "How are we going to adapt". The next few decades will see radical shifts in agriculture, energy, & sea levels. Entire peoples will become climate refugees. How will you choose to behave so that we can all lead lives of decency & dignity in a world of massive change?

[lsue26]

Talofa Ian Fry. Thanks for ur support to our small nation, we do really appreciate it, and keep up the good work too for the future. May God Bless u and ur family, and may He also BLESS those who go against us, cos they don't know what they talking about, and what our tiny paradise means to us (Tuvaluans). U helped our nation and i hope that others will help us too in the future. God Bless Tuvalu.

Tuvalu mote Atua.

[stopchemtrails]

Global Warming Scam has lached onto Tuvalu which theire precidicament has nothing to do with Global Warming. Lord Monckton puts it straight..check out the video Monckton v Greenpeace, it is totally hilarious!

It is sad that these small pacific islands have been brainwashed and brided by these multi-million dollar backed NGOs for UN votes and and the evil AGENDA 21.

The whole thing is ridiculous, even the greenies have now realised they were used.

[ladulaser]

@stopchemtrails the NGOs might have backing with millions of dollars, but industries like the weapons and arms industries - that just wanna keep polluting and depleting resources - are backed by billions and have surely bought their fair share of politicians and sometimes even scientists.

[IzzyBee33]

You realise that not one sing;e scientific body of international standing is known to reject the basic findings of human influence of climate change. Its only singular scientists that deny these claims and the media puts them on TV to make money because they draw attention.

For gods sakes, yes the world has experienced periods of warming and cooling but you don't think that the the BILLIONS of tonnes of posinous CO2emissons stuck in our atmosphere are going to do us any major harm now do you

[misterwolf29]

I feel for the tivaluans , but what should we do? The direction of things are toward carbon credits which wont stop the rich from doing anything. And I hear the intimations of weather manipulation, and gross innefective fraud is that what we want? Also we should bear in mind that atols are a risky place to live, and climate has changed for the millions of years we have existed, sea levlels have been rising without our help in the past, we move around and settle elsewhere unfortunately.

[MoeGreensRightEye]

What a fucking homo.

[sabfrei1]

Climate change will kill Tuvalu!

[louiz2204]

1:38 teen molestor?

[cotullaguy]

Global Warming is a scam by the banking elite to rob the people like you and me. this will cost $3000 per every american household if it ever passes per year. al gore will be a billionaire if it passes as well.

[callouschristian]

That is actually a very good deal if it would reverse the destruction of a nation who value their right to eat cheeseburgers and watch wwf over less wealthy nations' rights to liberty and pursuit of happiness. Cons: Always worried that someone they hate will make money and cheer war profiteers on when the money is made in the name of waste and destruction of human life. Cotullaguy is a con coward, and a cheap little jealous one at that.

[tokenism]

the funniest thing about this video and this guy Ian Fry,he lives in Australia just on the outskirts of Canberra in a city called Queanbeyan.

What a nonsense this has become,here he is crying about his country Tuvalu and he does not even live there!!!!!

[climatebrad]

@tokenism The population of Tuvalu is 12,000. They live at a substinence level. Not exactly surprising that they're not brimming with international treaty negotiators.

[jalexrosh]

I'm with you,cant believe there are so many idiotic people who are not worthy to live on the planet at all. They do not appreciate what they have,they are greedy,the pollute,they waste things,they are thrifty in every sense and do not realize that they are digging their own grave. I'm wondering where did all the sensible people go?

[FOTOFOTA]

@tokenism In reality, he puts his feet in the islands' shoes and talks as a resident of the island. Put yourself in their situation with sinking island and it was caused by the world community and you gotta have someone to help you and that is exactly what he does.

[friscoamm]

Have you ever seen a larger number of "educated" idiots in all your life?

[TheProjektcc]

nope not since the 911 commision

[Vinnld]

Cause everybody knows your average YouTube commenter is way smarter than them.

[friscoamm]

I would say that ANYONE who lives on ANY island whose highest point is just 4 meters high should visit that island when they like ... but live there? Are you kidding? Are they serious? A wave of any strength at all would wipe all these people out anyway.

Climate change is bullshit. Complete, total, fabricated bullshit. Nothing more, nothing less.

Quit crying you stupid fool.

[00ylash]

That's a REALLY GOOD POINT, champ. I guess you chose to live in whatever country you were born in as well?

[friscoamm]

The point is THIS IS ALL A SCAM. Champ.

[cotullaguy]

Yes, global warming is a scam. The numbers have been cooked and numbers that do not work for these criminals have been removed. This is a scam by Rothchild and gang to rob us blind and al gore is their front man.

[callouschristian]

You are so on top of things. Where were your robbery antennae when the conservatives were stealing elections, starting illegal wars and raping the environment by rigging the oil markets? You wonder why the world thinks you're a quack when you only now raise your arms in a tantrum worried about $3000.00/american household when nations are sinking because of your stupidity. You are ridiculous.

[cotullaguy]

I have been screaming about republicans stealing elections with dibold machines....i have confronted polling booth operators about it...I have been against our illegal wars as I know 9/11 was an inside job by the us government...you need to pull your head out of your ass...no nation is going to sink you al gore cock sucking moron.

[misterwolf29]

They may well sink, its an atol dude, a tiny bit of sand in the ocean, population 10k. But I hear what your saying and agree with it wholeheartedly stil! ffs we cant even predict next weeks weather, or next years hurricane season to even 50% accuracy.

[cotullaguy]

friscoamm,

you are correct as global warming is a complete scam. they are wanting to tax us to death...that is all...people are morons...most cannot see any chemtrails yet...

[climatebrad]

@cotullaguy Tell that to the people of Tuvalu.

[brutalmurder131]

@cotullaguy

iT WILL AFFECT EVERYBODY INCLUDING YOU, DONT YOU SEE THAT?

[mogmaar]

If Tuvalu is going under water, you'd better believe they and we have a moral obligation to do something to stop it. The last thing a drowning man wants is the snark and disbelief of some safely on dry land.

[cotullaguy]

mogmaar,

if you want to stop islands from going under, talk to the sun as that is the only thing strong enough to warm the planet in only 100 years. but of course the planet is not warming.

[theCriticalBrain]

Just google Tuvalu Not Sinking

[bb44332211]

The talk is all politics. Alarmists fearmongering in order to manipulate politics. I wonder if this Ian Fry enjoys his private jet and the free whores in Copenhagen.

[ChuAnFanBoy]

Well, this certainly gives you a new perspective. But I don't know what we can do except to send condoms? Maybe offer to build them houses or send them materials to do so? That, to me, is the biggest obstacle that one has to worry about in one's lifetime, at least here in the U.S.

Either way, they've gotta agree to voluntarily have less kids, because there just aren't enough resources, for everyone in the world to have a "First Country" standard of living.

[climatebrad]

The population of Tuvalu is 12,000. Its greenhouse gas emissions are close to zero.

[truefictions]

This guy is a sellout. It's that simple.

Show us the science and stop this false drama.

Such bullshit all thanks to scare tactics and politically manipulated science.

Peace

[terraalert]

@truefictions, Show us the science? Are you serious? Hahahahahahaha... are you blind? You can't read, you need this information spoon fed to you? The science doesn't get much clearer. Go to any scientific academies website, and I mean any recognized scientific academy that would make a statement about climate change and you'll find them to be in agreement with the scientific consensus. Your statement is one of the more ridiculous ones I've read.

[truefictions]

The blood will be on your hands not mine.

I have wasted enough time debating people who still think the earth is flat because their credible sources have told them so. Once you realize how full of shit you are for believing that politicians will solve your problems I hope you do something about it.

Peace

[terraalert]

@truefictions, yes, who are we to believe in credible sources. Conspiracy theory is so much more interesting... hahahahahaha....

[truefictions]

Science should not be about creed. Their is an obvious conflict of interests in the sources I assume you are referring too, so please excuse me if I have my doubts. If you indeed respect the scientific principals then you should be just as outraged as I am.. DATA has been destroyed and all you can talk about are your "credible resources".

Have you seen any of Lord Moncktons videos here on YouTube? Maybe you should.

Peace

[truefictions]

watch?v=A1UAFRlZtVE

[climatebrad]

Funny how there aren't any national science academies that claim the world is flat.

[callouschristian]

If there were, it would be built in Oklahoma and would have a picture of James Inhofe over the door.

[AMuscaria]

TA GUEULE FILS DE PUTE

[truefictions]

Fuck you too buddy.

Peace

[terraalert]

Many are fighting for you, for Tuvalu! Fighting against the monsters who would allow your country to disappear. Please don't despair, the voice of reason will prevail!

[truefictions]

Your actions will drive up energy prices and starve millions more.

How can you think the "rich countries" will help pay for it when most of them are already going bankrupt? Even when they were "rich" they did nothing to help! What makes you think they will help now?

I hope the people in developing nations see thru this bullshit and do not believe that anyone will pay for their way out of poverty.

Peace

[terraalert]

@truefictions, Combating climate change will increase energy costs and millions will starve? Really? I haven't seen a credible source report that. On the other hand, a changing climate, altering eco-systems, creating droughts, fires, floods, diminishing coastal areas, disease, mass migrations of climate refugees, etc... now these things are all documented by credible sources and will surely lead to the starvation of millions.

[truefictions]

Refer to my previous reply..

Have a great day.

Peace

[nanonadz]

This video brought tears to my eyes. Very touching. I'm with Tuvalu.

[truefictions]

It brought tears to your eyes because you are probably depressed about other things in your life.

This agreement will kill millions and tax everyone to hell. Politicians are not the answer, people are.

Peace
