This work focuses on the relationship between climate change and poverty in a post-industrialized world. How it lead to such a situation? What are the technological foundations of it? How might people influenced by the change responses to it?
The data and other bakcground info of the work was supported by Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC).
The effects of human activity on the environment have caused increasing concern since the 1970s, and international policy frameworks have been developed and implemented over the past thirty years to control and mitigate this impact.
However, society now faces dynamic global environmental change on such a massive scale that human activities must be adapted not only to reduce the change itself, but also to respond to the effects of that change.
As automatic machines gradually replace human labor, the inequity issue will start its shift from employments to resources, whether it is natural or non-natural. However, inequity in natural resources is an urgent problem. Natural resources, the foundation of all physical product, it has a profound effect on almost everything. And the exploitation of natural resources will be the most direct response to climate change. It will cause climate change as a negative result while being affected by climate change as
well.
But mining companies, as impassive collections of financial interests. The negative environmental issues caused by its activities will not be equal to anything else than a series of numbers on a quarterly financial report. They do not want to and will not take any responsibility for those lacerated lands they left behind.

Residents
do not have the ownership of their own environment, their own land, and their
own future. The absence of power will enlarge and cause this distressing
circulation of climate change and poverty.

A global sensor network owned by serval monopolistic mining enterprises has been set up to monitor and trace the minerals’ usage. With the help of this network, mining
enterprises could drain the mineral resources from every part of the world.
A group of volunteers stood out, they call themselves Guerrillas and trying to disrupt those sensors with homemade chemical solutions, expecting to create a façade of resource exhaustion.
The XT-1 Sensor Disrupter Series was specially designed for these Guerrillas to dispense their solutions to mess up the air composition around sensors.
