6 Billion Others Launched in Copenhagen: Portraits of Lives Impacted by Climate Change
They are powerful, moving and in some cases shocking.
These are the video testimonies of those already affected by climate change from around the globe.
Launched in Copenhagen on the eve of the fourth day of the UN climate negotiations, "Six Billion Others" presents the difficult and sometimes tragic effects of climate change, as internationally renowned aerial photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand and his team travelled the world to interview and film more than 600 people in 17 countries.
For the film interviews, a list of specific questions on climate, validated by the Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) were adapted to the respondent's specific condition.
One testimony from a fisher in Bangladesh, as an example of the many testimonies collected, says:
"I fear the sea. The sea is my only fear. Where will we go? The water is coming closer every day, the country is worsening day by day. I have never seen this before."
