So today we want to know, with so much choice at home, including better Home Entertainment systems, what still lures you to the cinema . Let us know, just use bbcworklife. Hello and welcome to worklife. A warm welcome to our new business programme, worklife. Today were focusing on food and the impact our diet has on the planet. A report by the uns food and Agriculture Organisation is expected to confirm that demand for animal based food meat and Dairy Products is becoming unsustainable. The livestock industry has grown around fivefold since the 1960s. Food production and consumption already account for more than a quarter of our carbon footprint. In three decades, the worlds population will be close to ten billion, sending demand for food soaring. Researchers say a move to a plant based diet would cut land use by more than three quarters and halve Greenhouse Gases produced by food production. Irene mia is the global editorial director at the Economist Intelligence unit, and shejoins me now. Welcome. How dramatic a change does the world need to its die to put this into practice . Well, its going to bea this into practice . Well, its going to be a dramatic change, right . If you look at the emissions related to food,it you look at the emissions related to food, it is Something Like 16 of all the emissions, so there is a general problem in terms of what we are eating, there is a general problem in terms of how we are producing what we are eating, so agriculture is a very big culprit certainly in terms of Greenhouse Gas emissions. There is going to be change, we need to have some change. I think the tampon is obviously the problem, but also if you look in general at how much we are producing and wasting, one third of what we produce is wasted. I think meat is obviously the problem. There are different bids to it, different elements which we need to be taking into consideration, all related with each other, so i think it is very important to look at different waste. If we look at ourselves as individual, we have personal choices to make, so of course a personal choice has to do with what we eat in terms of meat versus a more mediterranean diet more based on whole grains and vegetables, very little meat, but it is also how we waste what we buy. I feel like we are talking about this regularly, yesterday we had thousands of scientists from all over the world saying that we are at a crisis point and one of the ways to change that would be to change our diet, but what do you think is most important in seeing significant change in what is produced and where . Is it about government policy, do you think . M is government policy is for sure, we are seeing that in the tool we have developed to look at the systems across the world, what we see is that france is number one, and it has a very strategic view from the government on how you need to help reduce food laws and food waste, sell policies from the government, you can use both carrot and you can impose sanctions, you know, for supermarkets who are throwing away food, or you can do a campaign for awareness, because i think it is also the awareness, because sometimes we dont know, really, what are the consequences of our choices. We are out of time, i am sure we will discuss this again, thank you very much. Lets take a look at some of the other stories making the news. Beijing is reported to have said the us and china have agreed to roll back tariffs on each others goods in phases, as they work towards a deal between the two sides. If confirmed by the us, such an understanding could help provide a road map to a deal to de escalate the trade war btween the two ecnomies. Toyota have posted a 14 rise in its latest profits, boosted by a rise in Global Vehicle sales and an improvement in us vehicle sales. Japans biggest car maker posted profits of over 6 billion in the three months to the end of september. Toyota has been producing more trucks and suvs for the north american market. Airbnb says it will verify every single property on its platform after a news website found a series of scams. In october, vice news uncovered a pattern of false or misleading property listings posted on the rentals site. Airbnb said it would review every property by december 2020 and also promised to refund customers if they were misled by inaccurate listings. Now to japan, where ten bullet trains partially submerged by floodwater from typhoon hagibis last month are to be scrapped. The trains made up to about a third ofjapans high speed capacity. Maura fogarty is in our Asia Business hub in singapore. Tell us more. Hi, good morning, karin and sally there. We have all seen the iconic pictures of these bullet trains, a symbol of japanese progress, partially submerged by the forces of Mother Nature after typhoon hagibis ripped through forces of Mother Nature after typhoon hagibis ripped throuthapan just last month, killing nearly 100 people and causing massive flooding all throughout central japan. We have got confirmation today that indeed these ten trains have been scrapped. There was just far too much damage done, both the motor and braking systems had been damaged and there was no way to make them fully functional back again. Now, the Japan Railway operator is saying that roughly it will cost them up to £100 million in losses as they write off these trains that are no longer going to be operational. Back to you. Thanks, maura, interesting story, the cost of the typhoon on so many levels. Lets look at the markets in asia, pretty lacklustre, because there were rumours swirling around that a deal between the us and china would not be brokered this month after all but perhaps in december. But in the last hour, news from the Chinese Commerce ministry, we have mentioned it already, the chinese currency jumped on we have mentioned it already, the chinese currencyjumped on the prospect of tariffs being phased out gradually, both in the us and china, so we have got to keep an eye on that. Lets look at european markets to see how they are trading, up across the board, lots of companies have come out with earning stories today, rolls royce and others. If you want to look at what they have said, a website is the place to go. Karin. Sally, thank you. Now to the us, where walt disney is reporting its latest earnings in the next few hours, and its business is expanding. Disney is about to launch its own streaming service to rival netflix and amazon, plus its still making hit movies. Samira hussain has more. The old adage that you have to spend money to make money will certainly be a theme for disneys earnings. The company will soon launch its very own streaming service to go up against the likes of netflix and amazon. But disney has had to build the platform from the bottom up and fast. It means, for this particular quarter, it will have spent a lot of money and not have too much to show for it. That said, disney has had some blockbuster movies lately. The lion king film broke 1 billion in box offices worldwide, the fifth disney movie to do that this year. That could lessen the blow for investors this quarter. Like mary poppins says, a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. Time now for our daily look at some of the newspaper and website stories which have caught our eye. Joining me is Jenny Anderson from quartz. Jenny, welcome to you. A bit more about our lead story on bbc world news, the guardian talking about the former twitter employees charged with spying for saudi arabia. This is an amazing story that underscores a couple of things, spying has clearly gone into the modern age, now twitter employees, but i think there is a bigger story, saudi arabia really trying to put forward this very modern diversification of its economy, the aramco ipl, the biggest in the world, vision 2030, the plan, but this runs up a plan that they continually silence their critics, and now we are saying that they spy, or there are allegations, i should say. One of the accounts accessed was apparently one of the people close to jamal khashoggi, who was killed in the Saudi Embassy in istanbul. Yes, we are seeing a pattern, the murder of jamal khashoggi, one of his friends was targeted in this alleged twitter spying, dissidents in saudi arabia, women being arrested, so two different messages happening here. Is to parole is featured in the Financial Times today, and she is a psychotherapist very well known american psychotherapist, and she is launching a new podcast about work, what is she going to talk about . She isa what is she going to talk about . She is a famous psychotherapist, belgian born, trained in israel and the United States but practices in the us, very popular, has focused on relationships and marriage and infidelity, that has been the crux of it, but her thesis is that identity is not formed in the community but at work, and we are bringing all that baggage, so the traditional issue she talks about, power and control, respect and integrity, closeness and comfort, all of those now exist in the workplace, show she is bringing that with a podcast. When i read this article, she talks about how many yea rs article, she talks about how many years ago we were in a village and all our social interaction was therefore surrounded by many, many people, many actors, whereas now we look for all of it in our partner, our life partner, but also our workplace, so that kind of stews what we expect. Absolutely, our expectations are through the roof, we expect our partners to be our best friends, super adventures but stable, provide lifelong interest but also stability. Same with our workplace, we expect so much more than we used to, our relationships are more fraught, and our identities are more fraught, and our identities are trapped in this. She says dont underestimate the effect that work will have on the rest of your life, instead of compartmentalising it. Right, and the whole concept of worklife life balance, we all know it isa worklife life balance, we all know it is a total farce worklife life balance, we all know it is a totalfarce worklife life balance, we all know it is a total farce work life balance. I was thinking about the workplace in britain, how different it is to what she experiences in the United States, it depends where you are in the world. Absolutely, very culturally relevant, but she says we are seeing a generational shift. It will be different in different places around the world, but this idea of emotions at work, there is entire corporate training on it, e0 is the new idea. Fascinating. Thank you very much. So much more to discuss, looking at this article, we appreciate you coming in. Still to come, how can cinemas continue to attract movie goers in this age of streaming . Well, imax is heading towards its year at the box office. Well talk live to its chief executive. He will be with us in the studio. You are with worklife from bbc news. Britain could be about to return to levels of pay not seen for 12 years. Research from the Resolution Foundation says that average pay could hit £513 a week in november or december a height it last hit in august 2007. Laura gardiner is from the Resolution Foundation. Laura, it took us this long, did it, to recover from the Global Financial crisis . Yeah, i think the good news is that we have had good, healthy, real pay growth over the summer, but what we were used to before the crisis, but the bad news is that because of the decade that has come before that, the worst decade for pay growth in over 200 years, it has taken a full 12 years to get back to that peak we experienced before the crisis of 2007. Nobody expected the pay squeeze to last anywhere near that long. 12 years, that is incredible. What is behind it now hitting that peak once again . Cash pay growth has got back to a healthy level, 4 , and inflation is pretty sta ble level, 4 , and inflation is pretty stable at just under 2 , level, 4 , and inflation is pretty stable atjust under 2 , so a normal running pace because the Labour Market is very tight at the moment, which record high employment. What i would emphasise is that while we have got back to where we started on the average headline measure, there are the average headline measure, there a re lots of the average headline measure, there are lots of groups in the economy for whom this will not ring true, so the south east, people in their 30s are still 6. 5 below their peak, and the Public Sector and it and professional industries are those with pay is still quite far off its peak. So we can talk about getting back to record buy at the headline level, but we have to be aware that lots of people want to be feeling that in their pay packets. Lots of people want to be feeling that in their pay packetslj lots of people want to be feeling that in their pay packets. I am sure that in their pay packets. I am sure thatis that in their pay packets. I am sure that is the case. Laura, thank you. Lets ta ke that is the case. Laura, thank you. Lets take a look at other stories in business that we have not mentioned just yet. Sainsburys have just come out with their results today, i have mentioned a lot of companies are coming out, they have basically seen profits almost wiped out for the first half of the year after being hit by the costs related to having to close some stores. So pre tax profits dropped to £9 million from a 107 million in the same period last year. It also said it saw a 1 fall in like for like sales, so we have mentioned many times that it is very tough on the high street at the moment, sainsburys is the latest to show how difficult things are. Youre watching worklife. A reminder of our top story. A United Nations report out in the next couple of hours is expected to confirm that demand for animal based food meat and Dairy Products is becoming unsustainable. The livestock industry has grown around fivefold since the 1960s. Now, lets get the inside track on going to the movies. Imax differs from regular cinema by trying to make the experience more immersive. Imax uses High Resolution cameras and film projectors, improved sound, and large screens which can be as much as seven storeys high. But cinema is under pressure, with competition from the big streaming Companies Like netflix and amazon. Theres also been Huge Investment from tv firms like hbo with mega hits like game of thrones and big little lies. So whats the future of the cinema . Rich gelfond, chief executive of imax, is with us now. A warm welcome to you. Great to be here. Why is it going so well for you to we provide the differentiated, premium experience, so in your intro, you are quite right, if you could get the same thing on your tv set that you can get in the cinema, why go to the cinema . And the answer is imax, u nless cinema . And the answer is imax, unless you live in a palace seven stories tall and 30 metres wide, you are not getting the attempt to experience. As people in the home and spend more time on their devices and spend more time on their devices and more time in front of their television sets, when they go out, they want something really magical, something that takes them to places they couldnt go, and imax really fulfils that kind of get away experience. And you have been ceo of imax for 20 years. Probably a little more, i have lost track of it and you signed a contract yesterday to remain in post for the next three. I mean, during that period of time, you have seen enormous change. You describe yourself as a disrupter, but how do you remain that way . A matter of fact, the way we got to where i maxes today that is by disruption. When we first started, we said we would change the way people go to movies, they would say, sure you are, go away i remember an episode with Steven Spielberg 20 yea rs episode with Steven Spielberg 20 years ago, and we said, why dont you make movies for imax . And he said when you have 1000 screens and you are all over the world, come back to me. Well, we have 1600 screens and they were about 1 billion in box office and are in 82 countries, and in fact we have done many movies with Steven Spielberg. But i think if you realise that if you stay in place, you fall way behind, so culturally we are always looking to do the next thing, so we transition from the film system to a digital one, and recently we use laser light to make a better image, we have changed the sound system, upgrading it all the time. New generations of cameras, digital and film cameras, we are always evolving the experience and making sure that differentiation is there. So the process of movie making is slightly different if you are bringing imax into the concept from the start . M could be, there are two ways to create an imax experience on the film side. 0ne create an imax experience on the film side. One is we invented algorithms that blow up the data, because any kid who has ever put his or her hand in a xerox machine now is that it looks foggy when you blow it up. But in imax, we developed algorithms that play it up and make it look really good. The preferred method is to use imax cameras, which we have been increasingly doing, and for 2020 the new james we have been increasingly doing, and for 2020 the newjames bond movie is all filled with imax cameras, so when you see it in an imax theatre, it will look very special, wonder woman is filled with imax cameras, chris nolans new movie, tenet, top gun, with top crews. So a lot of the leading directors understand that they are painting with the best cameras in the world, the biggest, and they wanted to look really good, so they increasingly go to imax technology. Sounds like a fascinating job, hanging out with Steven Spielberg, creating a cinema experience. Do you get stressed . Everyone gets stressed, everyjob. Mostly management issues, when you runa mostly management issues, when you run a decent sized organisation, as you all know. How many people work for imax . About 800 worldwide, and we have three main offices in toronto, los angeles, and oh, china we have a bigger presence. There is a lwa ys we have a bigger presence. There is always backbiting, people have different ideas of how to do things, so without a doubt that is the number one stressor. So without a doubt that is the numberone stressor. You talked about it being a premium experience, thatis about it being a premium experience, that is your usp, it is a special treat, more costly than a regular movie, but you have faith that is what families will be going for, evenif what families will be going for, even if it is less frequently into the next few years . The way we think of ourselves internally is that we transcend the ordinary, and we try to make that our north star, we try to make that our north star, we try to think of everything we do, how can we transcend the ordinary, so we try to make our offices look like they transcend the ordinary. But most peoples lives, you know, you are watching tv, you go to work, even the best marriages, you are arguing day to day over petty issues, so when you entertain yourself, we think you want something that takes you out of your day to day life, and that is what imax tries to do. I saw apollo in imax tries to do. I saw apollo in imax this summer, it was worth it just quickly, what is the best film so farfor imax . Just quickly, what is the best film so far for imax . What have you watched on one of your theatres and thought that is incredible . watched on one of your theatres and thought that is incredible . A few yea rs thought that is incredible . A few years ago, a documentary called everest which somebody made, which ta kes everest which somebody made, which takes the camera to the top of mount everest, and you really feel like you have climbed mount everest, and if you are like me and afraid of heights, that is the closest you wa nt to heights, that is the closest you want to be rich gelfond, the ceo of imax, thank you very much for coming in. Thank you so much, appreciate it. In a moment, well run through some viewer responses to our twitter question. When do you get to the movies and why do you go . But first, have you ever felt as if you deserve a medal for having children . Yes every day well, the government of kazakhstan agrees with you, and kazakhstan is now awarding medals to its hero mothers who are keeping the birth rate high. Lets take a look. There you have it, that is where you are going to get a medal we are going to talk about what we asked you earlier, when did you last go to the cinema . You earlier, when did you last go to the cinema . People you earlier, when did you last go to the cinema . People got in touch. What is the point of going to the cinema in this age of streaming . Larry says he went last month to see a live transmission of don giovanni from the royal opera house. A quality night out in East Grinstead and a bargain price too my my mum goes a lot to the cinema to watch the opera that is something cinemas are doing to diversify. But illiana disagrees, she told us she went, about 12 years ago, cinemas do not offer enough value for money and the difficulty of dealing with a large crowd who do not care if they ruin it for others. Ian says, going to the movies is a great way of escaping from the world of work. As someone who is self employed and has a fast paced work life, it a can be a real treat. It isa it is a treat for you, isnt it . Ifind it is a treat for you, isnt it . I find you it is a treat for you, isnt it . Ifind you get it is a treat for you, isnt it . I find you get really absorbed in a way that you do not in your own home, there are always things you can be getting on with. It is the only place my children stay quiet. I make a particular effort to go for space films, it is the only time i sit still for two hours and do nothing else. Sounds great, doesnt it . Farmageddon was the last film i saw it was really good. Have a lovely day. Well see you soon. Good morning. You may have already noticed, its very wet out there this morning, particularly so across northern parts of wales, through Northern England and the south east of england. Now, all that rainfall today is going to bring the risk of some flooding and some pretty nasty conditions on the roads, some surface water spray, big puddles out there. Travel problems may well be likely, all because this area of low pressure right across the uk, and its this weather front here, which is going to be very slow moving. So the rain is going to be relentless across north wales, Northern England, towards lincolnshire and in towards norfolk. The rain in the south east of england this morning, that will ease away to the north, but its around the southern pennines where the met office have got an amber warning in force, because with up to 100 millimeters of rainfall, thats likely to bring some flooding and also some problems. But quite widely from north wales all the way towards lincolnshire, norfolk. You can see that band of rain even away from the warning area. There is likely to be some issues with some localised flooding. Now to the south of that, i mentioned some sunny spells, but heavy showers in the south west, showers coming into southern scotland, into northern ireland. But some brighter weather in northern scotland with some sunshine. A rather brisk easterly wind here and a rather brisk westerly wind across the south. And it is going to feel pretty cold again today, particularly if youre stuck underneath that cloud and that rain. Temperatures six to nine, maybe ten celsius. You can see this band of rain doesnt really move very far, but gradually itll edge its way further southward into mid wales and the midlands. But continuing in parts of lincolnshire, either side with some clear skies, but a patchy fog. Its going to be a cold night, in fact, a frost across northern areas. Temperatures here below freezing. Into friday, this band of rain will weaken quite significantly. Elsewhere, though, its much, much drier day compared to today. Sunsgine not going to help temperatures too much because its still going to be below the average, about seven to ten celsius in the weekend. Another weather system pushes through that. Itll give some snow over the Higher Ground of northern parts of england, scotland by sunday. Still quite a few weather fronts around, but it should be a little bit drier on sunday. But its going to stay really quite chilly over the weekend. Maximum temperatures still in single figures, six to nine celsius. And with more rainfall around, there still could be the risk of some localised flooding. Bye bye. Youre watching bbc news at nine with me, annita mcveigh, the headlines. Former labour minister, ian austin, who left the party in february has urged people to vote conservative in decembers general election. The country faces a big choice and theres only two people who can be Prime Minister on december the 13th, Jeremy Corbyn and borisjohnson. And i thinkJeremy Corbyn is completely unfit to lead our country and unfit to lead the labour party. Labour promises an additional £150 billion of Public Investment in what it calls an irreversible shift in wealth in favour of working people. But the tories say its fantasy economics. The liberal democrats, plaid cymru and the greens form an electoral pact. The three pro remain parties agree not to stand against each other in dozens of seats across england and wales
