31 Vulnerable sectors are also impacted, such as women and children, indigenous peoples, older adults, and persons with disabilities. Climate change also impacts the rights of future generations, which brings to fore the duty of stewardship upon the present. Climate change is also now a major cause of migration, and a threat to global security. Professor Erin Daly, CHRP resource person, explains the relationship of climate change impacts and human dignity, which is at the core of all human rights, as follows: Focusing on human dignity helps us see the interdependence, the interrelatedness, the indivisibility of our human rights, which is in fact how deprivation of rights are experienced by people. When a typhoon hits, it is not just independently the loss of a house, the loss of a school, the loss of family, the loss of health care, the lack of water, food insecurity of the end of hope that needs to be vindicated, but all of these churning together in combination and in turmoil that makes the experience of climate impacts so devastating and so threatening to human dignity. 135 Petitioner Veronica Cabe, a survivor of Typhoon Ketsana (local: Ondoy), testified: …The floods have changed our lives. I felt like parts of our dignity was lost because we felt displaced. We felt displaced, we didn’t have our own space. We were forced to live with friends who were willing to share their homes with us. We were separated from each other. My nephews lived in another relative’s house.We relied on relief goods and donations for months. I recall every day I had to queue in line and wait for hours, half a day every day waiting for possible relief. We did not know if relief would come and then line up again for another day. And then relief foods were thrown at us, and I saw my neighbors struggling against each other just to get their share. It was chaotic that time. The government was not ready for an Ondoy flood that time. And one important thing is that we had to borrow money from everyone because we did not have money.136 135 T.S.N. of the Fourth Inquiry Hearing dated 27-28 September 2018, at 157. 136 T.S.N. of the Fifth Inquiry Hearing dated 6-7 November 2018, at 110-111.
