Protesters built barricades and government leaders issued a warning to political hay for the Hong Kong Government is calling on protesters who are blocking roads to return to the pedestrian sidewalks as soon as possible so traffic can resume im also urging protesters to stay calm disperse peacefully and not test the law but the protesters are testing the law and its looking like theyre digging in preparing to stay images reminiscent of the umbrella prodemocracy movement 5 years ago when protesters blocked up the Central Business district for 11 weeks its got harder aljazeera phone calls from a bride sent this update from hong kong. The early hours of thursday morning in the streets of hong kong have remained relatively calm but there is a level of tension here and a very heavy Police Presence it was from areas such as this one outside the Main Police Headquarters and further across around the government offices and also the lead to the council that the thousands of demonstrators were cleared away from here a number of them try to set up barricades close to the Central Business district there were further clashes with police and both sides have been blaming each other for the levels of violence the police say that they were trapped inside the government complex that they showed a great deal of restraint and when they were finally attacked they say by demonstrators with an iron bars and also bricks they were forced to respond they use what they say was the minimum amount of violence with the rubber bullet type guns and also c. S. Gas to clear away the demonstrators but according to many of the thousands of demonstrators beyond those who were attacking the allege that a council who were simply standing in the street they then used the same heavy handed tactics to sweep them away from the streets it does seem as though memories of the occupy movement of the 5 years ago when students occupied the streets of hong kong for weeks are still fresh in peoples minds and the police were determined not to allow demonstrators to get a foothold once more meanwhile the groups who have organized the protest have vowed to continue as long as the government is considering this controversial extradition legislation but the government themselves carry law and the chief executive going on local television here to say that they are still determined to push through this controversial legislation. Still to come on now because there are reports of attacks targeting for nonnie villages in mali just. Days after nearly a 100 people from a rival ethnic group. And britain becomes the 1st g 7 nation to commit to net 0 Carbon Emissions by 2050. Hello again its good to have you back well we are watching one powerful storm system make its way across much of South Australia as well as into victoria now where the storm we have picked up a lot of plentiful rain needed for this time of year and that is going to continue to make its way across much of New South Wales as well over the next few days so here on thursday the rain is going to be edging its way over here toward sydney were going to see the rain continuing probably as we go towards thursday as well getting a little bit better by the time we get towards thursday evening temperature of 18 degrees brisbane its going to be a nice day for you at about 25. 00 degrees there over here towards perth though you are getting a break from all of those storms we saw but the temperatures are hovering into the mid teens maybe getting to about 70 degrees there and Alice Springs at about 25 degrees well here across the north and south island of new zealand we are still seeing a mix of weather over the next few days one system is pushing out but that one big system we were just talking about is going to be making its way across the tasman sea and that is going to start to bring some weather for the south island in particular Christ Church a little bit cooler for you at 13 degrees there and then as we go towards friday rain is in your forecast at about 10 degrees for you there and then here very quickly across parts of japan we are going to be seeing temperatures into the mid twentys across much of the area was indicted 25. 00 in tokyo 27. 00.

New attacks are being reported in mali where ethnic tensions are currently very high a series of reprisal attacks between dog and farmers and nomadic for lonnie herders has claimed hundreds of lives in recent months montes Prime Minister described seeing the bodies of children shot in the back as he visited a dog on village where almost a 100 people were killed. What happened here is a tragedy. Its a tragedy for mali and a tragedy for humanity it was important for us to come in the name of the president to present our condolences and to show compassion to those who lost their loved ones it is important that no one forgets this it is a horror that we have witnessed here. Welcome webb has more from the capital but. There have been 4 attacks throughout the day that included at least one attack on a village populated by people from the going to ethnic group it was a village populated by dawn people that was attacked on sunday night in the massacre in which nearly 100. 00 people were killed theres also been among those attacks an attack on a village populated by people from the from lonni ethnic group the president has announced that the governor of the mopti province has been fired hes being blamed for not doing enough to stem this escalating violence but a lot of people here will be putting that same very question to the Central Government is a lack of state presence throughout the Central Province a lack of security operators policing people feel that the military hasnt done anything its even been accused of atrocities itself in the past that combined with the conflict in northern mali which is both a prevalence of weapons as well as banditry general instability has led age old minor conflicts low level conflicts between the farming dogan people and herding people to escalate in recent years and months to the level were seeing this brutal into the communal violence thats going on right now. The u. K. Says it will legislate to eliminate Greenhouse Gas emissions by 2050 a 1st among g 7 nations Prime Minister trees in may says the goal is ambitious but essential to protecting the earths future economic activists say its not enough not even bob a report. On paper at least what we could be looking at is major changes to the u. K. s Climate Policy in the coming decades with one eye on the stop pushing her legacy beyond the ongoing bricks it chaos to reason maize and legislation committing britain to reach 0 Carbon Emissions by 2050 this is about the long term climate targets were proud of the World Leaders meeting record we have but i absolutely agree that it is vital that we continue this work and make sure that we protect our planet for generations to come if passed it would make britain the 1st of the g. 7 group of Major Economies to put a net 0 target into law in other words balancing Carbon Dioxide emissions with Carbon Removal measures or simply eliminating emissions altogether but the leader of the opposition sounded skeptical insisting the bay governments record on supporting efforts to combat Climate Change was poor another sector theres been filed by the government is that of the renewables industry. Solar installations are down by 94 percent onshore wind coming to a grinding halt. The Governments Advisory Committee on Climate Change recommended the net 0 target last month saying if other countries followed suit there was a 5050. 00 chance of staying below the recommended temperature rise of no more than 1. 5 degrees celsius by 2100 as agreed under the paris climate accords which would almost certainly mean people eating less meat and dairy and taking fewer flights any remaining pollution would need to be offset through carbon cutting measures such as large scale tree planting. Campaigners whove been pushing the guy. But to declare a Climate Crisis im not impressed they want a net 0 target of 2025. Un general secretary said if by the end of next year we dont start rightly cutting our Carbon Emissions humanity face extinction so thats our answer to them you cant gamble with our kids futures and thats what a target of 2050 does so while some say the governments move is a bold one many question whether theres the political will to force through the huge changes needed to meet their targets with the barber aljazeera.

With or without a deal by the end of october he has faced a string of questions about his suitability for the job roundly has more from central london. The front runner in this race had been all but invisible up to this point leading to accusations that he was dodging the media and all the difficult questions about his past but he couldnt do it forever and to try to get off on the front foot by promising to deliver direct states that would be good for everyone you very much so that no time no community.

Without a deal and others that you gladly would do that is a simple question if you want to be Prime Minister can the Country Trust you you brought shame on your party when you describe veiled muslim women as letter box is bankrupt those people who have worked closely with you do not think you will fit to be Prime Minister you told g. Q. Some years ago now when asked whether you take cocaine yes i tried it at university and i remember it vividly and i asked whether the drug actually got up your nose you said yes it must have done but it didnt do much for me were you telling the truth then and do you regret the fact that you took a class a drug of course he prepared for all this and other diverted a course occasionally some plaster comes off the ceiling as a result of a phrase i may have used to justify his conduct by claiming hes the sort of Straight Talk of the public wants but if johnson got away with the questions about himself there was a much greater one on which he offered very little detail namely how to renegotiate a different and better bricks and trade deal in the very short amount of Time Available before the end of october on that point he was almost entirely vague suggesting that in his opinion the European Union would have what he called a symmetrical enthusiasm. About reopening the talks something the e. U. Has said it will not do. And if one of the platitudes johnson or the other contenders come out with about renegotiating the call stretch time and there is such concern in parliament or the prospects of a no deal breck sets that the opposition parties launched the 1st of what could be several procedures which they hope will allow in peace to block any attempts to see it through.

Form americans are struggling to pay their rent the problem isnt just limited to places that hes. A former governor of the Indian Central Bank has costs out of the country good stuff but. We bring you the stories of the shaping the economic woes we live in. Counting the cost on aljazeera. The uns Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was born. Just 12 years to avoid a test with governments having failed so far to take effective action to come by Global Warming many and now looking to science and technology to come up with ways of bringing temperatures under control but what kinds of solutions being devised and how effective could they be reporter Eric Campbell has been finding out. We start our journey in a city moving on from kabul. Few places are as eager as copenhagen to get power from wind and even in this weather from sun you. Know where this plane came into ditch cars the box. Klaus bonded is director of the Danish Cyclists Federation and a former mayor of the city. Hes leading its push to be the 1st Carbon Neutral capital by 22. 00 which. I do believe that there is a Strong Political consensus in denmark that we need to act its pretty cold right now but we have an extremely hot shot it didnt rain for 2 and half months here. But nothing says why is there something going on. And i think we have to realise that something is going to. Copenhagen has been breaking all records in traditional ways to clean air. That according to this meters 1631 box of cross this bridge this morning alone in the past year its been 3519062 its extraordinary but the problem is no matter how much we ride them or how much we recycle the matter how fast communities transition to renewables its probably not going to be faster now because governments arent meeting the commitments they made at the paris Climate Change conference to cut emissions the politics are failing which is why theres now such an urgent push to try a new technology to experiment with things that sound like Science Fiction but cope with the only way to ensure a secure future is a fact. The warning was sounded in october body i. P. C. C. The uns Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change which are working on leading Scientists Say carbon needed to be almost hot from 2010 levels to limit Global Warming to 1. 5 degrees. Otherwise runaway temperatures were destroyed but right badly a reef droughts and hurricanes would become the norm melting ice sheets would flood major cities. But our sky mythologised jason fox a former lead all over to the i. P. C. C. Says even that wont be enough. Its frightening and im sorry to say this but that one and a half to greece Global Warming we still have like 2 and a half to greece of summer arctic warming and that pushes greenland beyond its threshold of viability so we still lose greenland but at a slower rate. Based in copenhagen he measures our street rate for the Geological Survey of denmark and greenland. When we lose the reflective cover of the Arctic Sea Ice when we lose the Greenland Ice sheet and the climate system globally unravels and and its going to create the kind of problems that will make it pretty hard to govern society. The migrations the droughts so whats at risk here is is practically civilization. Coral Professor Bob shares the frustration of all scientists contributing to the i. P. C. C. See the. Evidence gathered through years of painstaking field work is often. North by politicians. Politicians and governments that dismiss i. P. C. C. Reports thats not conservative its not progressive certainly it is insanity. If is the world will need massive technological fixes called geo engineering literally read engineering be good if you just hold back whats coming. For example we can slow down melting of the Antarctic Ice sheet by piling up sand on the sea floor simply to block a warm currents that are already destabilizing the whole west Antarctic Ice sheet. Other ids include covering oceans with ion filings to encourage carbon e. G. Plants. Sending ships around the world to pump seawater mist into the sky to diffuse the suns writings we have some ideas and we need to try several technologies and evaluate them and figure out which are the least risky and cetera to to get the carbon curve which is like this now to get it negative. And that all needs to happen in the next. 1020 years to start down that path its extremely ambitious. The idea of geo engineering has excise it but scientists and industry. On the other side of copenhagen ive come to meet a prominent political scientist. They did it by using lots and lots of coal hes a favorite commentator in conservative media for argument against major cuts to fossil fuels and i would say look if you say to people there is another solution yes it is going to take the attention somewhat away from the original solution but we should also be honest and say weve tried the 1st solution namely ask people. Could you please use the car less could you please use less energy could you please turn off your lights and its not work for 30 years and actually there is about half a planet whos waiting to get more Energy Available and why do we talk to says he except that fossil fuel emissions are warming the planet he just thinks geo engineering will cool look much faster than switching to review. Because its so cheap its very likely to happen sooner or later some indian billionaire or some saudi billionaire is going to do it all by themselves just turn it down a little bit to preindustrial temperatures or wherever we decide to to have it and that would be essentially avoiding a large part not all but a large part of the Global Warming problem. So what are the most likely fixes and would they really work most of these globally ambitious projects are still on the drawing board but one Surprising New technology is up and running in a place generally seen this need to retrieve. It strongly know whom the procedure and innovation. From swiss watches that never lose time just with i when i was in the country permanently a piece of a small company. Believes its found what could be a big part of the solution to plug. Kristoff cabal to spark a ph d. Students when they decided to form a world changing company. Tonight theyre celebrating clime works 9th anniversary so were still not making money so of course money is not the motivation the money ration as solving a big challenge and there is probably as little as challenging as Climate Change. This illusion is building giant. Hands that draw in air and bind carbon molecules of the filters. The carbon free air is released back into the atmosphere the c o 2 is super heated and collect this gas i like to call it low tech not high tech and its actually very simple the challenging part is making it work and making it cheap. In just 2 years theyve opened the plants in switzerland icelandic italy. They believe they could remove 10 percent of the carbon the i. P. C. C. Wants cuts. Their 1st target is one percent by 2025. Its like 300000000 tonnes of c o 2 and that were require a quarter 1000000 machines. But in this developmental stage removing just one tonne of carbon costs at an economical 600. 00 us dollars we are confident that in the next 2 to 3 years we will have our cost and the ranch off 2 to 300. 00 per tonne and the mid to long term and thats for us 2025 to 2030 and we see cost as 100. 00 as feasible. So the big question is what do you do with all this captured c o 2 well fortunately in this case theres a greenhouse just 300 meters away so half of the carbon sucked in the ferns its piped underground of the greenhouse and turns into vegies. Plants absorb carbon so the greenhouse but its the gas this fertilizer. Since it started spraying Crop Production has increased by 10 percent. The quicker the process can turn a profit the more likely it is to spread round the world. Even in frosty switzerland theres a real sense of. Urgency about limiting Global Warming. I came here for the mountains to climb to ski and in the alps you could see very early signs of Climate Change and of course closures are disappearing like we wont stop that if with and without Climate Change but the speed of disappearance is shocking. Patrick hofstetter from the World Wildlife fund took us out to see the disappearing place in. The alps a bore me more than twice as fast as the rest of europe over some of it was unprecedented drought. Yeah thats really special for us to farmers dont know dissertation yet. The grass growing soon there is a shortage in feed so they actually started to slaughter their cows much earlier. After this really dry summer i can feel a renewed sense of urgency especially also because the farmers now its really accept that they are directly affected by it
