===Fourth Scene===
The fourth scene begins with music by Radiohead plays. The text then appears reading "500,000 tonnes of CO<sub>2</sub> Saved in First 6 Months," "May 2010 UK Government Commits to 10% Cut," "10:10 Cities (The list reads Oslo, Lisbon, Mexico City, Paris, Chiang Mai, Lyon, Brighton, Sibenik, Bordeaux, Zadar, Subiaco, Cannes, Pula, Lille, Bourges)," and "10:10 Campaigns Now in 40 Countries." A voiceover by Gillian Anderson also plays during the credits, "10:10. Hundreds of thousands of people, schools, businesses, hospitals, movie stars, knitting circles, scout troops, presidents, and governments all tackling climate change: More than 40 countries. Care to join us? No pressure."

Afterward, in the recording studio, Gillian Anderson is asked what she is doing to tackle climate change; Anderson rebuts the question stating that doing the voiceover is enough, so, because of this response, the sound engineer tells Anderson that there is no pressure and detonates her. The text "1010global.org    cut your global carbon by 10%  no pressure" then pops up, ending the video.
