Genocide mia mars ourselves who she takes the stand at the International Court of justice in the hague the Nobel Peace Prize winner says there is no proof that her countrys army carried out genocide against revenge of muslims prosecutors are seeking to prove her wrong plus. And other than a ready briggs if thats what works johnson is serving up promising heat if he wins on thursday as conservatives hold a narrowing lead over germany programs the labor party have more on whats being called the most important British Election in a generation. The haka a very warm welcome to all of you well we begin with swedish climate activists credit to work she has been named as. Time magazines person of the year for 21000 while the 16 year old has emerged as a leading advocate for immediate action to address the Global Climate crisis well now smith came hours after to burke took aim at business and political leaders meeting at the Un Climate Conference in madrid lets take a listen to some of what she had to say to stay below 1. 5 degrees we need to keep the carbon in the ground. Only setting up this day and saying things which give the impression of that action is underway will most likely do more harm than good because the changes we call it are still nowhere in sight the politics needed does not exist today despite what you might hear from worldliness and meantime the new president of the European Commission or as of underline has vowed to put climate at the heart of her presidency while shes been presenting her promise green deal in brussels the plan will commit the e. U. To achieving climate neutrality by 2050 and Catherine Martin spoke to one Climate Policy analyst and has this report on some of the potential obstacles. More trees throughout europe and more sequestering of c o 2 that will be the 1st step that europe wants much more. It will need radical restructuring we need enormous investments in the Energy Sector we need to transform our mobility sector we need to transform our food system and we need to ensure that our euros are being spent to make the sectors future proof along with flying shipping as one of the worst climate killers engines on the high seas run on crude oil when it gets burned even more pollution is created than with diesel but so far ships have been allowed to sail without c o 2 certificates now the e. U. Wants to change this in the future shipping will also be included in the emissions trade a challenge for all Member States the biggest challenge i do see is with them ambition of Member States all of the e. U. Member states are subsidizing fossil fuel projects in various different ways we have a long history of giving exemptions for diesel kerosene for aviation these should be the low hanging fruits that if we really are serious about this transition we remove harmful subsidies but that costs money in order to pay for the so called green deal the e. U. Wants to redistribute funds less for farming and infrastructure more for Environmental Protection this is already controversial poland hungary and the Czech Republic economically underdeveloped states have been blocking this plan. We discussed about the e. U. Budgets monies not being put into modernizing the budget at least there were as the current proposal stands this is not a budget for the future who we have a goal that 25 percent of the e. U. Budget would be spent on Climate Action what is done with the rest 75 percent if that is being spent on harmful practices for climate we dont achieve our goal the e. U. Is a climate leader who is of a fundamental and has set a fast pace whether other Member States want to follow perhaps ultimately the question of financing. While we are here in the studio sets your mil or spokesperson for Climate Justice and International Politics at the worlds alexa Mark Foundation and research happy to have you here with us to talk about the green deal but before we do that want to get a Quick Reaction from you we just heard of course gratitude emberg was received the title of person of the year from Time Magazine the youngest recipient ever your reactions. I think its great that people are aware of great time off the Climate Justice movement but. The young generation climate doesnt need awards they dont need recognition they think the tiriel Climate Action and they need a future so i think great with an award or recognition but we need material action lets talk about material action is planning to put its money where its mouth is a huge green deal is that ambitious enough no model its got 3. 00 problems 1st of all its a set of targets and targets to reduce emissions that 2050 targets completely irrelevant i can say i can put a family on mars by 2050 and nobody will care because its 5 legislative elections down the line secondly its a Growth Strategy and growth capitalist growth created this problem you cant grow your way out of a problem that was caused by growth and thirdly and last point its a fairy tale it perpetuates the illusion that we can both maintain our high growth high speed high production high wealth lifestyle in the globe and wealth and still save the climate have to make a choice and the green deal does not make that choice ok so it doesnt make that choice lets talk about it theyre trying to do something theyre trying to reduce their Carbon Footprints you know this saying that theyre going to reduce their Carbon Footprint and if tommy gets reduced emissions then the Paris Agreement which said were going to keep warming to 1. 5 degrees would have already saved a lot look we live in i live in germany here and germany has for a long portrayed as has a climate leader but it isnt it isnt well figure in Renewable Energies its world leader in burning soft brown coal which is the dirtiest of all fossil fuels europe isnt a climate leader its wealth is based on exporting lots of things like for example cars that destroy the climate really the green deal seems to be more pretending to save the climate while actually trying to save the economy so much that they do. For example stop Building Liquefied fossil gas infrastructures all over europe as massive projects to expand infrastructure to burn another fossil fuel socalled natural but actually fossil gas they could as the colleague on some of the said stop subsidizing fossil fuels they could cap Cost Reduction but instead theyre giving us more targets which honestly dont save the climate ok thank you so very much ted similar run out of time from the Rosa Luxemburg foundation greatly appreciate you very much your take on your green deal to have you. I mean our civilian leader our own son suchi has told the uns top court that there was no proof of genocidal intent behind her countrys military campaign against muslims testimony on tuesday describe stunningly barbaric acts against the range of population including children and babies speaking at the International Court of justice in the hague the u.

And well have more on this story coming up in the about 20 minutes on the daily news asia so now would like to tell you about some of the other stories making news around the world.

In the South Pacific island have voted overwhelmingly to break away from pop when you get the votes paves the way for it to become the worlds newest nation more than 98 percent of voters backed independents. In the u. K. Theres just one day to go to whats being called the most important election in a generation and politicians are making a final push for votes im going to support johns a start at the day by delivering milk in yorkshire and then went on to darbyshire where he helped to bake a pie while he described the big dish as a metaphor for his briggs a deal with the European Union saying it was all waiting to go and then johnson called thursdays election in the hope of Getting Parliament to support his regs its a policy but it is not a done deal yet lets take you now to london to our correspondent there beer get masa beer gets a weve seen the incumbent Prime Minister deliver milk today bake upaya all efforts to appeal to the working people is it going to work. Well for a start an unlikely romantic hero here period and then in a spot in a cult love story Christmas Love story but hes also pretending to be a man of the people with delivering milk now his personal ratings actually are not very good and yet his message is easy for many people it goes down well because hes saying lets get braggs it done lets break through the gridlock in Parliament Many people here in the u. K. Are really fed up with the brics a process they dont understand why its all taking so long and for us johnson is making it look very easy said he can deliver in just a few weeks that u. K. Will leave the you also he can deliver a trade deal his critics of course point out that there will be trade offs negative economic consequences and it might actually take longer to negotiate a deal with the e. U. But for many people they were a lot want to listen to his message and they would just want to be finished with bricks it now his conservative party is as we speak now still leading in the polls but a recent survey shows that the race is tightening considerably is there still hope for the oppositional labor party. Well we have seen that in the last weeks that the labor party has really been trailing quite far behind the conservatives that they had caught up with the conservatives and the question is will. Gets a clear majority as you obviously ones or maybe there could be a Hung Parliament now there are many groups here in the u. K. Who edging people especially people who want to prevent bricks and are fighting for another referendum they are aging them to vote technically and even though they might not like Jeremy Corbyn and his labor party to vote for them if they have a chance to get a majority in a particular constituency and then prevent a just marching through of us johnson in the open in the elections all right now lets take a look for a 2nd now at the labor partys Election Campaign. Its time for real change thats the message the labor party wants to get across to voters. Gerry corbin is pledging to nationalize utilities and pour money into Public Services and in years of austerity under the conservatives weve had 9 years in which 150 people have become millionaires in britain weve had 9 years during which 4000000 children are living in poverty dont you think its time to get rid of the government that brought that about the the poll ratings show labor trailing the conservatives corbin has struggled to put down allegations that hes allowed anti semitism to thrive in the party this year 8 lawmakers resigned in protest over and she said it isnt. The london district of battersea its considered a bellwether area as it usually votes for the party that ends up winning this time many seem disillusioned just a kind of im not really concentrating anymore at all if im honest i probably more traditional leans towards labor and i would certainly would like to vote for labor however im not convinced that some of their policies are. Brick to t. Could be the Biggest Issue for a long time labor had no clear policy on bracks it now corbin says hed renegotiate the back seat deal with europe and then hold a 2nd referendum. Actually its the over and. Probably more keen to actually just finish this begs the process now i dont want to drag it on any longer i preferred a conservative government. And i want bricks. But service say the labor party and corbin in particular have an image problem he seems weak he says indecisive patchy or shaky seems soft on terrorism and crime and hes seen as someone who simply cant wake up the morning brookss that said the labor partys poll ratings have improved as the campaigns progressed fine Jeremy Coleman is competing with the Prime Minister his popularity ratings on good either whether labor compile off an upset will depend on those undecided voters. The u. K. At the moment is a very divided country once diesel actions are over what are the chances of the country coming back together. Well yes the country is really deeply polarized over the briggss issue and i think it really depends how its going to continue and we just dont know it might be that if we have a Hung Parliament synuclein majority the side that actually the talk about bricks and how to resolve this is going to continue for quite some time but even if those johnson does gets a majority has been so divisive in the Election Campaign he has been really ruthless towards his opponents and ideas a really alienated almost half of the British Population who voted for remains that i think a very very difficult for him to to get the country back together and also he hasnt really shown that he will want that so this issue i think is going to remain for some time to come its a big mess reporting from london thank you. In new Zealand Police say any attempt to recover bodies from mondays volcanic eruption must wait because the island of sarkari is too dangerous to set foot on poisonous gases are venting from the volcano and the car also known as the white island is covered in civic action the bodies of 9 people thought to still be at the site 22. 00 survivors are being treated in hospitals many of them have severe burns earlier we have the opportunity to speak with auckland based journalist to permute she told us about the condition of those who were injured in the eruption the number of People Killed by the white island eruption has increased to 6 with a patient at a hospital and auckland succumbing to their injuries for australian victims have been identified and confirmed including mother daughter and there are 1200000 square centimeter subst in enough for the ongoing needs of the patients coming to new zealand from the United States 30 patients remain in burns units across new zealand 22 of whom still need airway support the nature of the burn suffered its complicated by the gases and chemicals in the eruption of fortunately. Meanwhile doctors are close to full identification of all patients although theres not a formal list at this point that they. Published today the local media is pretty much filled with stories about evacuation efforts right after the eruption on monday including a helicopter pilot who rescued by people who described how those people lying in the crater covered in ash were crying out for help as he carried them to his higher copter and unfortunately how he had to leave 2 people who are just barely alive behind. Journalists across a permit are reporting from new zealand were back now in europe where the french government has given details of the proposed Pension Reforms that have led to widespread strikes over the past week while Prime Minister. Announced that a universal Pension System would supersede more than 40 Public SectorPension Plans that currently are in place he said the reform was also necessary to avoid a multibillion euro deficit in the Pension System by 2025 major labor unions however have rejected the changes in our colling for the debilitating transport strikes to continue on they say workers pensions could still face cuts and they fear workers rights would shrink under the reforms. Lets get more on the story in the french capital is our correspondent lisa louise lisa 1st stop has this and now spent by the Prime Minister appeased the demonstrators in the labor unions. Well it doesnt look like it as you said many and many unions have already said that they would continue even intensify the strike most importantly the transport unions the s. N. C. F. Union and the r. A. T pino the local transport him paris but also the Railway Unions theyve said that they would continue hearings have chipped in there is a new day of action local actions actually planned for tomorrow and then a new day of National StrikeNational Demonstrations on tuesday however we are still waiting for one union to reply to the proposals and that is the c. F. T t thats the most moderate union that up until now had supported the government seems that its really crucial what they would reply if they join in the strike and then oppose the governments plans it could be really become really difficult for the government well it could become very difficult for the government because least of course french governments its notoriously difficult for french governments to push through forums in france what are the chances that these reforms announced today by the Prime Minister will see the light of day. Well its very difficult to predict right now you know the the unions are determined to continue that strike even beyond christmas thats causing major disruption here obviously also to shopkeepers that depend largely on that month on december for that turnover the government on the other hand is determined to push through this ritual in my car the president knows very well that this reform will be crucial for his chances to get reelected in 2022 he has this image he wants to maintain this image as a reformer to appear to the voters who still support him on the center right and hes determined not to give in now who will win the standoff its difficult to say in france when you look at big strike movements theres always this moment that comes at which the government then suddenly things that the strikers the demonstrators have won but its unclear if we will get to this moment this time around lisa louise reporting from paris france thank you so now its known as the toughest rowing race in the world and for women from hamburg are to be the 1st german womens team to compete in a 12 the atlantic challenge will see them attempt a 5000 kilometer journey across the atlantic some ago mera in the Canary Islands to antigua hamburg 4 have been training for a year.

British row a charlie pitcher has custom built the team vote for this specific challenge. 3 of the crew on hand for a 1st look for. The boat will be their home and life raft for the coming weeks during the 4800 kilometer long rice it has to protect them from waves of up to 10 Meters High School in heat as high as 40 degrees unknown in the ocean.
