What to do. Imagine a report shows that the worlds oceans continued to heat up last year making them the hottest the have ever been and its still happening and International Team of experts is examined data compiled by Chinese Institute to work out changes in Ocean Temperatures over decades they say this warming is already having a major impact on marine life and on the severity of storms cyclons and hurricanes. As our planet warms up due to the greenhouse effect the vast majority of trapped heat is absorbed by the oceans over 90 percent of it the oceans therefore provide a key buffer that helps keep temperatures on our planet stable but their capacity to absorb heat isnt endless and eco systems are suffering organisms like corals that cant flee the higher temperatures simply die back to back bleaching and catastrophic mortality has meant weve lost 50 percent of all corals on the Great Barrier reef in 2 years and this is meant weve needed entirely new ways to think about how can we fast track both resilience and recovery and warmer oceans are having another major impact on our planets colder regions even a slight rise in water temperature causes glaciers to melt more rapidly from below billions of tons of ice have already disappeared from the ice caps in a nutshell warmer Ocean Temperatures mean rising sea levels the minister Marine Biodiversity and more powerful storms. I didnt run john from t w environment can talk us through this new Research Welcome to the studio dead seems a day doesnt go by without us hearing more bad news about the planet is anything in these findings that we didnt already know oceans are getting warmer and were all essentially going to die were all doomed so no dude which of my thing to be able to say we would like to say Better Things are about the report sherry the 21000. 00 with the warmest year on record and i mean this is becoming a regular occurrence 2928. 00 in which the one that went to 17 and i mean the whole decade. But the same one thing that is incredibly striking from the report of the scientists calculated the amount of Energy Thermal energy thats kind of been added to the oceans and said that its essentially the equivalent of having dropped 3600000000 atom bombs into the water into the water thats i dont understand what that means for i mean obviously lets just make sure we understand that obviously 3600000 bombs have not been dropped into the water and the destruction is not of that level but what it does show is the quantity of them and energy by which we have rated the oceans and i mean another study both the told me the. Essentially just the jump from 20 to 2019 in terms of ocean heat was roughly 44 times larger. Than the entire direct energy used by humans across the world and thats essentially because of this Greenhouse Gas effect so were burning these fossil fuels theyre releasing dust into the atmosphere and the that then trapping solar energy essentially so its not just the lump of coal that you thats one of the oceans right its the gases released from that other energy and so hes the thing right this is happening in the oceans this is what were talking about so if i dont live all macos if i dont live in a small Pacific Island why do i care so one thing all the scientists ive spoken to all the ocean scientists ive ever spoken to have said that this whole thing is really into connected so even if you live in a landlocked country and a far away from things i mean you depend on the global food supply presumably. If i dont know rising sea levels will for more water affect Crop Production in a rice growing in the mekong basin then of course you are then affected by these things on a more sort of maybe direct of these coastal communities in particular and for countries which have a large amount of coastline. This woman water bleeds rising sea levels and that means that people on the. In the city of are exposed to more intense storms. And often more frequent flooding in some areas and so directly people are affected by this and these are all phenomena that we are seeing so wheres the good news the good news is that we know what to do about it essentially we need to both mitigate again and this is what scientists are telling us we need to mitigate against Global Warming so we need to reduce the amount of Greenhouse Gas emissions into the atmosphere reducing the warming effect on the planet and that will lower the stern of the problem itself but weve already locked in a certain amount of warming because of the emission weve already pumped out and pick from the oceans because there really slow to react to changes in the atmosphere and all that means that we also need to adapt to get whats already happened and why is that to come because without shoppin steep cuts in Greenhouse Gas emissions we are for a large amount of woman. I didnt see that as necessary that good news but if you put it in the wreckage of g. W. Environment thank you. The german chancellor im going to back liz invited libyas warring parties to berlin on sunday to discuss efforts to broker peace early its a day libyan rebel leader. Left talks in moscow mediated by russia and turkey without signing a deal despite this fires out saraj who will lead said libyas u. N. Recognized government in tripoli did sign after us forces have been trying to take tripoli for the last 9 months. We get more on this from day to please chief Political Correspondent belinda crane welcome milind a do more talks make sense when actually for half the has just walked out. Well i think everyone would agree including berlin that it would be better to go into this International Conference on sunday with a firm ceasefire in place moscow is saying both warring parties did agree at least a verbal lead to a ceasefire but the fact is that the primary objective on of this conference on sunday is not lets say to make peace then and there that would be impossible and its to get people talking and particularly to get the International Parties talking because this is essentially a proxy conflict that going on and that is going on both sides have International Support have to are in fact from a number of different sources ranging from france to the United Arab Emirates and russia the the u. N. To back to government to government on the other hand has support from turkey and the objective of the talks on sunday here in berlin is to get all those International Parties starting to talk to each other and thats a u. N. Objective and germany in fact is hosting this as part of this u. N. Process but that was about my question is what is germanys interest in this conflict. Well cover of Different Things germanys official function is in fact to be the host for a consultation process that is designed to flank the un efforts to get reconciliation and peace talks going in libya but beyond that germanys own Foreign Policy interest here is a twofold one germany has been saying now for some years that it wants to take a more active International Role it says it wants to do so militarily as well but thats always very very difficult here for this country with its 20th century history including world war 2 but what is clear is that germany does see itself in the role of an International Mediator weve seen it playing that will for example in the minsk process designed to try to get peace in east ukraine and its clear that many other countries do trust germany as a kind of an honest broker in such talks so i think thats whats behind the designation by the un of germany as the host for this consultation process melinda crane our chief Political Correspondent thank you and just take you through some of the other stories making news around the world or sources in iran say they have arrested several people in connection with last weeks downing of the ukrainian. 176. 00 people were killed when you buy a new Defense Forces mistakenly shot the jet down irans president said a special court would be set up to investigate. Avalanches in pakistan controlled kashmir have killed at least 57 people rescue teams have been trying to recover buried victims official saying boats of people are missing after heavy rains triggered landslides in a valley. 7. Now to the biggest humanitarian crisis in the western hemisphere the worsening situation in venezuela people are leaving the country in droves fleeing violence insecurity and threats as well as shortages of food medicine and essential services with more than 4600000 venezuelans now living abroad mostly in latin america and the caribbean this is the largest exodus in the region for decades 5 year into the year that number is expected to reach 6 and a half 1000000 in the documentary that premieres here on d w a wednesday we look at the reasons behind the countrys economic downturn is a preview. Murky hotter and her 7 children live in a slum on venezuelas caribbean coached the children do not go to school well that cannot afford to pay the bus spirit to get them there she has barely enough money to survive. My husband went to peru because of the crisis for you that he wanted to help us from there. Honestly if he hadnt left we would have starved here. That we were only simply would have starved. That atlanta and all of them a look at the Industrial City of mary kay reveals why locals are starving the factories here as everywhere in venezuela are at a standstill only 2000 of the original 12000 still operate venezuela produces hardly anything itself anymore including food the giant cattle farms are empty. Then as well as our own products have been replaced with food imports highly subsidized by the state. The system worked well as long as Petroleum Prices were high but as soon as they fell there were Food Shortages so simply had more money printed to keep the system going the resulting hyperinflation was the final blow to venezuelas economy lives with the consequences every day the children really get enough to wait that any of us who didnt even know me for food that they understand when i tell them that i have nothing to give them their little sometimes they cry its not easy when your child banks you for food. And you cant give them anything. Its very very difficult. But. Highly damaging system of state tera keeps the regime in power the. Paramilitary gangs on by the government intimidate the people through arbitrary rule and tara the president has also made the military compliant. Juror who installed his military friends and to keep ization is an industry the man who heads the Petroleum Industry is a general. Put up with the dont know what he knows nothing about oil installed military people in all key industry positions they have no idea how to run an oil industry the. Petroleum production has broken down because of this mismanagement it is now at the same level as it was in 1945 american chinese and russian political and security interests clash directly in venezuela without russias help them a direct aim would have already collapsed. Venezuela is just one piece in a global game of poker the losers in this game of people like maliki hata and tonight was. Well if things didnt feel beautiful to me if i had the chance. I take my children and leave me just like i dont need to and. If they could millions more people would flee venezuela just to survive. I took a young count of the venezuelan filmmaker who coauthored the documentary and travels between pakistan and germany is welcome to the studio took a what if what if youve been seeing him when you on your travels in venezuela well. Its a humanitarian crisis. For the last i would say since 2014 scarcity of food as medicine. I think only in the year 2018 and average of. 7000000 venezuelans lost. 11 kilos an average of 11 kilos and i mean theres. Its the ravages are like a country thats been at war but its not a war thats the thing and when you talk to people the people who stayed wrong the millions who fled what sort of stories do they tell you why they stay. I mean some people stay because they have nowhere to go or they dont know where to go also the people theres been many flows of people whove left the country the 1st ones were people who were well educated they get it they receive job offers and International Job markets and they left there were the 1st wave and now what youre seeing are people who are desperate people who are leaving with. No money even to pay for a bus ride theyre walking trying to walk from venezuela to peru or to tour chill day or hitchhiking seoul. No more people having fled because they basically because they couldnt and what sort of welcome do they gets when they are driving these neighboring countries right at 1st they they were very well people were very there was a big sense of solidarity with venezuela also because historically venezuela was a country that received refugees and especially political. Political refugees from the dictatorships in the sixtys and seventys soul there was a sense of solidarity with venezuela i think that has a lot of that has. Been lost because theres just been too many venezuelans coming to mainly colombia and peru. Why did you want to make this film. The idea to do this film was to try to understand and explain the causes that are there are behind why are our people fleeing but as well whats really the cause why is this country in a crisis the country with the biggest oil reserves in the world why are people hungry why are people fleeing because they dont find medicine or because of instability whys that was the reason and do you come up with a solution do you do you answer your question i think the main reason we found is theres been just too much corruption and terrible mismanagement so must Nicolas Maduro go in order for the situation to improve. I think so yes i think that venezuela needs fair and free elections and if there are fair and free of elections in venezuela now the world will go and yes he has been gone now we know that some of that is because he has military support but not unquiet doe promise laws but fail to deliver why. I think its very hard for once someone is in power like maduro. How do you get him out of power i mean hes cut controls all the institutions there he has the military support gets the support now also from russia and china how will he be ousted if there is no democratic ways to get him out of our if there if he doesnt want to have fair and free elections how can you get him out of its very hard to i thank you so much for joining us and you can watch to his full documentary called displaced venezuela d w documentary channel on your true. Now to australia where bushfires continues to devastate huge areas experts say the heat and drive us are set to continue for months climate Scientists Say the massive fires should have been for saying local residents of one burnt out town of return to try to salvage what remains of their homes and belongings. Once a booming gold rush town never gondor no lies in ruins 80 percent of the homes here were destroyed in a fire storm on new years eve the school the charge and the store are all gone from graham losing his home was bad enough but his dog cosey has been missing since the fire swept 10 bodies and what were. You going to do do you think that it was a move in the last post or will. This. Is my best my. Little best night it was my motivation its been a bit of a morning and they will always. Amid the debris fragments of the family life that once flourished here despite it all the community clings on the only that is this was i know. This is where all this this is me i got a lot. I can walk around without his im your it stick. Rain is forecast but the Prime Minister warned that months of bushfires may yet lie ahead. This morning i received briefings from the bureau of meteorology which sit out that over the medium term out to the end of. The struggle will continue to be experiencing warmer and drier conditions which they declined expect say they had long warned that the country was particularly exposed to the effects of Global Warming climate scientists leave the going to happen at some point where there is now it 10 years from now were going to get this perfect storm and it was going to be pretty horrible. Its legacy aged in the blackened landscapes of never a good and felt most acutely by those left behind like ash graham. I could happen at any time and what it does its scary its likely to be extremely dangerous or thor says in the philippines fear a volcano close to the capital manila is about to erupt the government raised the threat levels after the volcano began spilling actual lava on sunday so far about 30000 people have fled but nearly half a 1000000 have chosen to stay in the danger zone. Tagaytay city is a ghost town. Ash from the volcano is everywhere. Even without a major eruption president s have already been hit hard. The ash from the volcano traveled with the wind and unfortunately it blew in our direction it didnt just affect us physically but also our livelihood our business had to close down but it will take a while to clean up and i feel bad for the workers especially those who rely on a business to support themselves. Some are already attempting a cleanup but the filipino authorities a clear things could still get much worse the not dealing with the condition of the volcano remains at alert level for that means a hazardous explosive eruption could take place in a timeframe of hours to days. So. This is what the authorities are afraid of as well as the potential danger from lava an explosive eruption could cause part of the cocaine or to collapse into the lake triggering a tsunami. With no certainty over when disaster could strike president s and their livelihoods are left in limbo. In the United States the race to decide which democrat will challenge donald trump in the president ial election is heating up right now there are 13 possible contenders for the crucial 1st primary vote in iowa comes up in 3 weeks from the top 6 candidates will face off in a t. V.

She views selfies as a crucial part of her campaign and says she has a plan for everything Elizabeth Warren one of the top here 2020 democratic hopefuls. Oklahoma city in oklahoma Elizabeth Warrens hometown hours before she set to speak and her former High School People are already lining up i havent totally decided on him voting for yet but im interested. In any particular issues. Im interested in you know kind of her solution for student debt and i know shes talked a little bit about affordable child care things like that are a thing very interesting to me especially as a young mom who has a lot of student. The crowd seems fired up when she takes the stage Elizabeth Warren talks about growing up in oklahoma i have 3 older brothers about her family and how they struggled financially after her debts heart attack when my mother walked to the sears and got a minimum wage job a middle wage job in america would support a family its 3 it would pay a mortgage cover the utilities and put on the table day. Minimum wage job in america will not keep up mama and baby out of poverty that is wrong and satisfied. Elizabeth warren is running for president promising to bring about big structural change with the goal of tilting power toward working people and away from the cooperations and the rich and that seems to resonate with many in the u. S. Not only here in Oklahoma City one of most prominent liberals in the u. S. As a young adult warren was not much of a political activist and for many years registered as a republican the university of texas in austin it was here that Elizabeth Warren began her work on bankruptcy. Douglas laycock was one of my colleagues at this time helping to relaunch of a large empirical study on the topic is really driven by. Sire to protect ordinary americans. Whatever she may have thought growing up but what she thinks now based on the data is there are a lot of people in deep financial trouble. Not because they were wild spending sprees but because they fell through the cracks in the system as president ial candidate warren vows to take on big finance big pharma and big tech but her critics say shes too far left corporate americas worst enemy frightening to even Many Democrats if the best democrats tend offer is business as usual after donald trump democrats will live in Oklahoma City at least its difficult to find anyone who isnt inspired by war end result to fight for me as a woman it translates very personally because i most often were not supposed to be fighters and shes changing that its stereotype them in terms of being donald trump i really think that she does have a big big chance and i would love to see the 1st female president elected as president of the United States its a long run against daunting odds that Elizabeth Warren hopes to win by getting out and talking to people face to face.
