"Content tends to be mundane. Good mornings, weather reports, recipes. But as with anything that can go potentially viral, some forwards aren't so benign. In late 2017, a wave of so called stranger danger videos spread across WhatsApp in India. These stranger danger videos that went out sent the following things look out for your children there are strangers in your area, they're coming to kidnap your children and take their kidneys. That was the basic message in multiple different vernacular languages across India, shakan chala banaji is a Professor of media culture and social change at the London school of economics and political science. She researches the spread of misinformation. What struck banaji was that these videos were carefully edited and tailored to different ethnic groups, often depicting local children being seemingly kidnapped or hurt by malicious outsiders. So for example, you'd have a video of a killing of children from overlapping that you would have a voice-over in Tamil or Telugu or Hindi saying something like this is what people traffickers are doing in your area, even though it was so clear from the visuals that the children were not locus but nevertheless this spread absolute panic. So there was a call to arms at the end of each of these messages, asking people to follow them. And essentially, almost cajoling them to take things into their own hands and do something about these people who were kidnapping their children. Pranav dick shit reported on what happened when one of the stranger danger videos went viral. I ended up traveling to this tiny Hamlet called Rhine Prada. Which is in the Indian state of Maharashtra in the western part of the country. Where just days before I visited 5 people had been lynched to death in an extremely gruesome and brutal manner basically a mob of 40 people stoned them and beat them to death inside the village council office. The video that spurred that violence, it was complete misinformation. It featured an image of dead children that was actually from the aftermath of a chemical weapons attack in Syria. But the fact that the information was being shared by people in WhatsApp groups made it feel more trustworthy. WhatsApp is your window to the world and you believe everything that you see there because, you know, oh, somebody had no sent me this. A friend sent me this. Somebody from my village sent me this. So it must be true. But naji says in addition to the trust factor, there was something else at work here. An atmosphere of heightened religious and political tensions. As we were doing our research, it became evident that very quickly the discourse moved from its just any stranger in your area to its Muslim invaders. It's Muslim infiltrators. It's people from across the border. It's bangladeshis. It's Rohingya. So really quickly. So it began to look like there had been a kind of plan all along to so distrust and enmity against new people coming into particular areas. Regional ethnic and

"Oh, you know what, when I was a city cop in West Virginia, we got a call of a man hanging in a tree or a person hanging in a tree. Like in a hangman's noose, and of course, everybody blue lights it out there and the detectives are on the way. Turned out to be a scarecrow, a straw dummy dressed up in bib overalls in a flannel shirt. But then you can go have fun with that afterwards. You can leave it people's lockers and you know, good stuff. It's kind of funny. You can't make the shit up, but I think the other thing too is because they were looking for this other lady. I think somebody was playing like they say, they're not sure when the dolls were dumped at these locations or it was a sick prank related to the ongoing investigation. So some of these are funny, but some of these are a little scary. It's kind of like, you got to be shitting me. But hey, look, it's different. It's not an inflatable doll, folks, for a couple of you guys out there going on. Let's watch some flight away while he should have been able to tell because it doesn't weigh anything. No, this was silicon. And so I will tell you, you got to treat it like a real crime scene. You don't know because you're not lifting the cover off. The blanket off until you collect all your evidence and transport it. So holy cow. Who would take the time to do that? What a prank. Well, fuck an idiot. Prank or prick. I'm not sure which. Well, speaking of fucking idiots, this one, I'm telling you, you can't make this shit up because when I started to read this, first of all, I thought, okay, this isn't going to make the show then I read it. And I said, okay, yeah, this is going to make the show. All right. This happened in the western Indian state of Maharashtra, Maharashtra, in India. Common spelling. Common spelling, Maharashtra. Forced officials in India are investigating four men who gang raped, killed, cooked, and ate a monitor lizard in one of India's most protected forced reserves. Oh, that is gross. That's nasty. Oh. And you're wondering, how did they catch them? Well, it's the only monitored lizard in the park. And the incident took place at Audrey, say Audrey Tiger reserve in the western Indian state of Maharashtra. The forest cameras traps meant for tracking tigers, caught the accused men, trespassing, and the chandoli national park forced officials arrested the men and found photos. They recorded this on their phones. Let's just be on sick. A lizard? Oh. Well, India's monitor lizards are in danger. They're protected by law. And how do you gang right? Very carefully. It's so sick. Not to say about that one. Oh, I'm telling you. That's nasty. Oh, and this will look more recent cases included a man raping and killing a pregnant goat in southern India and a 60 year old man raping a female stray dog last year. You guys got some sick shit going on in India. Let's fix, let's fix this. Oh my God. You know, I mean, look down at the end of your arms. There's these things called hands rather than doing something. That kind of crap. Just do it yourself. Good lord. Just to engage in hand to gland combat, man. Just leave the lizards alone. Unbelievable. Sick bastards in this world. This one is this one was just, like I said, I wasn't sure if it was going to make it or not, but I thought, yeah. But seriously, it's not all of these things are totally humorous, but it's like, but it falls under the headline. I agree. This next one, I was thinking about saving this for the final story, but no, I said, I'll put it in here because we talked about this in our last episode. And our small town police blotter. But I have to read it again because this is trouble snowballs for a man who shot himself. You talk about the gang that couldn't shoot straight. Here's a criminal. Anyway, a convicted felon accidentally shot himself in the genitals last month at an apartment in Kashmir, but his problems didn't stop there. Cameron Jeffrey Wilson had a tucked 27, by the way, had a pistol tucked into his front pocket April 5th when the gun discharged, sending a bullet through his testicles. And into his thigh, instead of heading directly to the hospital, which you should do any time you shoot yourself through the gonads. He instructed his first his girlfriend first to drive to Lincoln park and Wenatchee, where he gave the pistol to a friend now. Wilson, by the way, has had a few scrapes with the law. He is a 13 time convicted felon. So not a very good criminal. Probably shouldn't be possessing a firearm, but then he goes to the hospital after that. Well, most almost every state, you have the hospitals and doctors have an obligation to report gunshot wounds, no matter what the story is. Right. So they perform surgery. So as they were performing surgery, a balloon containing marijuana slipped out of his anus. How does it slip out of your anus? That's why I gotta know this stuff. This is what I'm presuming if he's been in prison 13 different times. There's a reason it slips out. Things have been worn out. Oh my gosh. Anyway, so. The detectives, chilan county, or chalin county detectives, were notified. He'd suffered a gunshot wound. They responded to the hospital. They searched the car and what do we say kids? Don't do meth. They found a bag of meth inside a pair of blood stained jeans he'd taken off before entering the hospitals. Now, detectives did a smart thing. They didn't arrest him right then because they would have had to pay for all the healthcare. So instead they issued a shoot of warrant suspicion of second degree felon in possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of math. So he turned himself in on April 18th. Well, the detectives snitched on him. And so they said, hey, this dude likes to hide stuff in unconventional places. So during the strip search, another balloon of marijuana slipped from his anus. Flapping back there. It just must be just open up and it just drops right out. He's probably got three or four pounds up in there. It doesn't end there. It doesn't end now. He was arrested and then charged with possession of a controlled substance in a correctional facility, but as legal troubles would continue. From the jail, he made multiple calls to his girlfriend asking not to cooperate investigators and what did they do with all phone calls coming out of a jail? Everything gets recorded. Everybody knows that. So this is a lay down. This is a throwdown, man. They listen to the calls and charged it with four counts of tampering with the witness. So what an idiot. I mean, this guy, this guy, I think I said this before. The last time we talked about this, this guy is bringing a band named criminals. He's making other criminals really look stupid..

The key elements respect around recognition, so for instance, this woman beer by, she comes from a matrilineal tribe in Madhya Pradesh, and when her home burned down in jawa, Maria Pradesh, she moved to the city looking for work.

Lastly, remuneration. If the idea of leaving the village was choosing between earning an income or realizing that people will pay for your traditional knowledge because.

"Take action against climate change. If you're you're a fifteen year old who's learning about climate change and has enough of a science education to read the ipc and understand that you'd be kind of weird if you weren't some combination of frightened and angry and that may be turned into either activism demanding more action all your career. I mean we talked. It's amazing the people think of young people activists and they are but this young people going into engineering or farm and to drive the solutions right because or politics to drive. I spoke to spoke to the young environment. Minister of maharashtra state in india's small state with the population one hundred twenty million people. He's only thirty one but he's driving really very clear about this agenda driving real change so young people could very quickly go from being teenagers to being engineers and politicians driving change so it will be it will be. It'll be mixed right. I think the thing to really watch will be whether the most vulnerable countries so the small island states in the least developing countries sub-saharan african america. Feel that enough is being done to help them in a covert situation. It's not postcode for them. One point two percent of africans had vaccines. The question is is this a moment of global solidarity or not we can dig up and is we. We can drive electric vehicles in the global north. But if people haven't got vaccines and we're not coming together to fulfill the promises on on finance and technical support than that. That's the that's the rift. To what i think. Many big corporations are talking about having net zero targets for twenty fifty is change happening fast enough do you think what. The very clearly illustrates. That change is not happening fast enough. What what we're pushing for in order to be in the race zeros companies. Not just to say they're going to have a long term goal but what they're short term goal is and how they're going to get that because i i can say i'm going to lose ten kilos in three years but what really matters. I'm are changing meeting in the next right now. To lose hoffa-carey the two weeks kind of thing so short term plans and real action. Real ice mc capital of the only tests of seriousness. It's easy to make a long term. It's it's necessary cognitively to say we are going to get zero. But then he got to do the hardware saying how we're going to make the first step sir in the next few years mishit just to ask about we talk so much about copter into six and how important it is going to be and of course it is but if someone with such a detailed knowledge of previous un climate conferences. How much of the work and the diplomacy is happening now and will continue to happen until those two weeks in glasgow and how. Where does that hardware you gave that. Analogy trying to lose weight. If we're going to be swim bikini. Ready by glasgow. How much of the work is ready having to be done now. Because it's complicated so but you know still only just over. Half of the country's parties have all signed up to the paris agreement with says they will come up with a better plan or more ambitious plan every five years. Just i've a half. I think for memory ninety nearly two hundred of about one hundred ninety five so pretty much half. So there's a lot of an and that's been one of the points is still some big emitting countries in the g twenty who haven't submitted that plan so the hope would be that they are going to do that so that we will see plans from australia. Indonesia australia china india saudi arabia. And they're working on them right now. I've got no doubt that we will have a lot more announcements of plans from countries and business cities because as sort of full saying function. Everyone knows the eyes of the world are on glasgow. So i think there's a lot of what has been done already and a lot of work still being done. That's the value really of this forcing function is that it causes. You gotta come up with a better plan now. And everyone's going to be looking at it in assessing the credibility of it as a champion. Give us an idea of your pitch to businesses and non state actors when you're trying to persuade them to make the changes necessary. How do you go about doing that. Gives us an insight into what goes on behind the scene. It's not that sophisticated basically say this is an inevitable challenge and it's happening already and it's just going to accelerate because we know that industrial transformation takes a long time at star. And when it really kicks in it goes exponential and if you'll know already on the curve you're gonna lose and not then i point to all the different signs of changing. The science is just getting stronger and stronger and stronger. The generational movement and that doesn't just maiden school strikers or that does giants the politics also means the best young engineers coming out of university. Do not wanna go on for companies on solving global problems. So there's a war for talent you know those The police the policy environment is chinese investor environments changing. We lost the glasgow financial allowance for net zero with marconi. In my right palu strike already got nearly ninety trillion dollars of assets. Saying we're gonna lines and that zahra so if you've got h or if you're employing young engineers or if you've got bankers or investors or subject to policy than he needs to change in the goes that means everybody if you don't start changing soon you will find that the changes runs away from you so basically. I say it's going to happen. It's happening if you'd have moved lose so that was niger. Topping their un high level climate action champion. I think that's a title. We should all aspire to so they have more perspectives. How government businesses cities and industries can take this report from the united nations. And say right. This is the problem to. How are we going to fix it. And of course that's a really really important message ahead of twenty six in november now regular listeners will know that this is normally the point of podcast where anna asked me to whip through this week's climate headlines but i think you'll agree myself included that we've had quite enough of headline news this week so i thought i might treat you with a story that you may not have notice emits all the talk of the. Ipc this week and to do that. We've plumbed the depths of the ocean. I bring you a story about crabs and this we discovered a fact or didn't discover it scientists at the university of hull have at so they've been doing research in robin hood's bay of the north yorkshire co severe been. It's stunning highly. Recommend it and the researchers have been looking at the impact marine how plastic pollution and climate change there and brace yourself honor but they found that hermit crabs may be sexually excited by an additive released by plastic. Waste in the water. I don't know what a sexually exciting play. I will leave that to deal listeners. And google out but what happens is i think the heart rate and respiration leach is additive. Could early mind into the water and they found not only the crabs attracted towards the plastic source because of that additive and as you said the respiration rate goes up indicating sexual arousal. So there you go friends we leave you. We start with the ipc report and me leave you with honing casuarina. I saw this story during the week and shared with the office.
