We're a secular organization.
We help people of all races and religions, but we're fighting against an escalator that is saying, no, we, we help you help look after people who are like you.
And we're saying, no, you should help people because they're human beings.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know people say in America that's a great point when they're trying to think what to say in answer to a question.
So I don't want to say that's a great point.
And then you think I'm just trying to buy time.
But it is actually a great point.
And here's the proof of it.
There are 20 countries that we say have 85 percent of all the humanitarian need in the world.
If you add up 300 million people in humanitarian need in the world, 20 countries have 85% of the people in need.
15 of those countries are in the category of most climate vulnerable.
They're measured to be in the most climate problem.
So the overlap between conflict and humanitarian need and climate crisis is very, very strong.
Drought, floods, and they are not getting the adaptation that they need.

There isn't the proper irrigation.
or systems for dealing with floods.
So they are doubly on the receiving end.
