The bonn meeting aims to flesh out the terms of the twenty fifteen paris climate agreement almost all countries have signed the accord only the us has announced it is pulling out. The deal requires that temperatures do not climb by more than two degrees it requires all countries to set their own climate goals it paves the way for billions in aid especially for poor countries but one will be a working conference without Big Decisions like those made in paris thats why its so nice at first it sounds pretty unspectacular but what we agreed on in paris in december two thousand and fifteen is like a new world wide law and Something Like that needs rules of interpretation.

Just one there may not be much time to celebrate there are only eight hundred left the least of any great ape species the biggest threat comes from a distant relative humans. Well the anthropologist Michael Corson was one of the lead researchers in this study earlier he spoke about how the species of all so that really interesting point is its a very small population that seems to be a remnant population of the first orangutans that actually went down to what is also. From the mainland asia and they seem to be direct descendants and then there was one split about more than three million years ago and that formed during that and so lot of sumatra in the second split about six hundred thousand years ago which were born in the ring but there were temporarily ends is there pretty much you know a direct line to the first orangutans that went on to the island.
