As its new leader and the man most likely to succeed chins of it as Prime Minister. Welcome to the Program Israel has become the 1st country to announce a 2nd National Lockdown to combat the coronavirus after a surge in new cases that the new lockdown begins on friday and will restrict any life in the country for at least 3 weeks. As israels outbreak threatened to race out of control Benjamin Netanyahu announced the unpopular but perhaps unavoidable decision were going to be today we decided on a Strict Lockdown plan for 3 weeks with an option to extend but as of now weve decided that the lockdown will last until the end of the holiday. Door prelims lot of Health Ministry executives and hospital managers have warned us that death rates are forcing the application of immediate measures. A part of the medical staff and the hospitals are overwhelmed. Israel has one of the highest per capita infection rates in the world over 1100. 00 people have died for days israelis have been protesting to demand netanyahu stepped down for alleged corruption and for bundling the response to the covert 1000 crisis. After the lockdown announcement on sunday demonstrators blocked roads at Israels Ben Gurion airport or netanyahu was due to fly to the u. S. To sign a peace deal to normalize ties with bahrain. We have a problem it is. For what. He says the good things status quo good seafood good morning mention as it. Pleases me to see. 100000000 leave. The planet i can think of. Netanyahu will fly back to israel after formally signing the agreement with bahrain on tuesday when he returns the crisis will be waiting for him. The World Health Organization says theres been a record one day rise in corona cases around the globe more than 300000 new cases were reported in the previous 24 hours joining us now from geneva is Margaret Harris from the World Health Organization margaret what has you particularly worried right now about the coronavirus. Well it could send parts of the ground but the tick of the very intense outbreaks were seeing in the americas continue to happen in the United States and in south america countries like brazil but also in india which has been recording record numbers of cases they off today and has a huge outbreak 50 percent of the cases are still in the americas were also seeing rises in the Eastern Mediterranean region around north africa and in the gulf states but also of course europe is now seeing a resurgence in cases in a number of countries israel has become the 1st country to introduce a 2nd nationwide lockdown could other countries be heading in the same direction you think. So we separate terrorists say advice you know if you dont want to have to go to that stage way youve got such widespread transmission then youve got to hospitals overwhelmed so that governments resort to the lockdown because the problem there is the community doesnt. Have to stop the transmission what we would like to see is if really ceases and if every pot of every person in the country taking action now to prevent the transmission rising so intensely that to be evoked artes with. It resorting to drastic measures stay with us because we over the weekend we spoke with the e. U. Commissioner for the economy we asked him about covert 19 lets hear what he had to say. You know at the moment. With serious issues see the 2nd wave with luck. We know that they would use Something Like nukes millions so for now i think we have Something Like not. Counting and doing the research for. The future depends very much the system is or is this rules no. So no 2nd wave in europe that was European Commission polish and whats your reaction to what youve just. Said or what weve always been saying is if we dont really talk in a way because we have had ongoing transmission throughout and quite a few countries are seeing a rise in transmission so what we are saying is suppress press press and you can do that by ruling class spaces crowded areas and close contact and. Following that basic washing your hands covering your face when you can clear spaces that things were not done enough. Whats being done right now in the world to combat the Novel Coronavirus theres a difference between the spring and now isnt. So i guess is a good bit different people are learning a great deal say one of the problems is people thought that it would be good if it were he who would finish it completely and the problem with this virus is that samantha i know has great so. Things have changed a great deal with it we know much more about it as science is much better at doctors and nurses treating it but every person needs to understand what we go on until weve quest and got rid of it. From the World Health Organization thank you very much for joining us here on news and we stay on the subject and have a look at italy now where children have begun returning to school more than 6 months after they close to curb the spread of the coronavirus some regions have had to postpone the reopening us not all schools are able to meet all of the new requirements for those children going back to time off excitements but also a profession. Social distancing has already been abandoned in this school as children flock back after half a year without class. And i believe that. It will be somehow different. But it will be an unforgettable experience. That im probably going to school year will be more difficult because of the coronavirus my Previous School had fewer pupils but lets see itll work out some how. Many schools dont have enough desks to ensure the kids are kept apart teachers of voiced concern that infection rates could soar in classrooms which do not look less crowded than they did before the pandemic the Prime Minister acknowledges the problem. Will be difficult especially in the beginning. Our schools have been underfunded for years and the pandemic has made this even more obvious. Now what if you have to do your part by following the rules so that your health and that of your loved ones is protected. The pupils are forbidden from sharing School Material which is kept in a box after lengthy preparations the measures are put to the test but not in all parts of the country rising infection rates have delayed School Reopening in some regions. A ton of some of the other stories making headlines around the world David Cameron has become the 5th former british Prime Minister to speak out against a new bill attempting to override the briggss Withdrawal Agreement britain and the European Union signed the agreement earlier this year the new post breaks it bill will go before the u. K. Parliament later today. By dance the Parent Company off the Popular Video sharing optic talk says it has chosen oracle as its new American Technology partner though the company says it will not sell the up or give its source code to any u. S. Company President Trump threatened to ban ticktock unless its chinese Parent Company sells its u. S. Business. The German Government says 3 laboratories have independently confirmed the kremlin critic alexander volley was poisoned with a nerve agent. Specialist labs in france and sweden confirmed initial results from germany palin says it is renewing its calls for russia to explain. Embezzled for example look at shankar has arrived in the russian city of sochi for talks with president Vladimir Putin who is seeking support from the kremlin after more than 100000 people joined and the government demonstrations in the by the russian capital minsk over the weekend Security Forces again detained hundreds of protesters as they turned out to call for local shanker to step down its the 1st time 2 leaders have met face to face since the contested pollution elections in august. And so what this joint by correspondence your leadership in moscow and the connally in minsk your lets start with you whats on the agenda there at this meeting between putin a location well there is a lot of movement in the relations between moscow and means canter there are a lot of issues to be discussed just a few days ago the Foreign Ministers of the 2 countries met in moscow then russias Prime Minister machinist and visited minsk whats clear is that Alexander Lukashenko needs money and he has to urgently remodel the belarussian economy to achieve that look at the needs putins help because he has no one else to support him and this is actually less about policy Officers Police officers that putin could send to support. Or to suppress the protests but about support although putin has a very carefully hinted at supporting look he support comes of course with conditions and some of it could include possible financial concessions from moscow to minsk and other possibilities of the deepening of economic ties which could result in belarus being even more dependent on russia do in mens cohen port and is russias support for oh. Well i think a really has nowhere else to turn right now he has no options the money is yuri mentioned there and boots on the Ground Support again these protesters let him a putin really has him where he wants him for years because policy has been trying to keep kind of position between the west and russia to make diplomatic overtures to the west to try and scare russia with. Claims of potential integration with the west to get russia to support his regime financially and with other concessions now he has that option has been taken from him given the violence weve seen on the streets and its going really weeks and hes totally dependent on glancing at putin i think hell be hoping that he can make some short term concessions that he can then row back in the future just a target for these next few weeks. Back to you was just what nick said about whats in it for putin but what else. Is in it for putin does he need to question because well. You know i mean moscow needs a relatively coal neighbor who doesnt take to the streets trying to change the regime the kremlin started at the moment as we are helping delarue saw that we couldnt we dont have such kalak scenes here in moscow any other russian city kalak from the Russian Point of view if the protest in belarus are successful they could set an example and motivate the russian opposition to one day stand up against president putin its therefore in the kremlins interest to that is in protest in belarus and soon russia also can also take advantage of the weak economy if wanted for example in exchange for cheap russian oil russia russian banks russian oligarchs could get assets off state owned companies increasing their own profits. Nic back to you their last weekend of protest. Seems to be becoming more heavy handed should be worried about this meeting. Well theres definitely a big concern here that it will come back from that meeting sochi with. Putin to crack down here and to use all the resources at his disposal to have russian backing be that money or boots on the ground as mentioned before i think theres also the Bigger Picture about the russian sovereignty now russia and belarus already together make up a socalled union state that kind of hateley defined in lots of ways they have very deep economic ties and there are some joint military bases but the fear from the opposition here is that in return for that manpower and financial backing to crack down these protests essentially it will give up this sovereignty to russia allow deeper integration lets remember that has made no secret in recent years that his desire to draw closer and given the disparity in the size between these 2 nations that effectively would mean some kind of integration on russias terms so real fears there about this meeting specially about the fact that they are meeting 1. 00 to 1. 00 with no delegations no present what exactly will be said there is a thing everyone is guessing about here today. Reporting from mits thank you gentleman. Yes he has been elected the new leader of japans governing liberal Democratic Party has leadership paved the way for him to become the countrys next Prime Minister the 71 year old previously held the position of chief cabinet secretary government spokesman and key adviser. Last month. Longest serving Prime Minister announced that he would resign due to health problems.

At 72 tadashi sato is already well past usual retirement age but a recent change to the law in japan is attempting to encourage companies to keep employees on much longer. Given that you are all for the shit i could imagine that a person at the age of 72 was someone quite old but once i reached that age myself i realized that it wasnt a case i feel like im in my fiftys im doing my best to keep up with young people with. Aging japan is into spirit need of more workers to sustain is soaring Social Security costs from next spring Japanese Companies will be required to make an effort to employ workers until age 70 satchels company is taking that even further. From one where we have many elderly customers although we have a lot of young staff i think it is quite prefer for those elderly customers if they are served by staff of a similar age to them here only in. Such a says he still enjoys working and would like to use his expertise to help his younger colleagues for him and many other aging workers in japan this move is a step in the right direction.

Here in this barn so lost all her 17 baby goats to the flames we didnt have time to get the trailer. We didnt know that we were in any kind of danger no fires ever move this fast out here. You know and when we came back the next day you. Ill never forget seeing the burned bodies in the barnyard. People like sarah who are living in this part of the world are used to wildfires but they have never experienced Something Like this year multiple mega fires burning millions of acres have been destroyed millions of residents have to live in talk seek air the whole west coast seems on fire some climate experts say Climate Change is smacking california in its face. In claremont we speak with the director of environmental and now this is Charlie Miller human beings are driving Climate Change theyre driving it because in fact were in cars in Southern California and elsewhere that were pumping up we went in to be air thats heating up a planet and the atmosphere and so when the fire starts burning theyre actually burning of the results of our own actions. Sarah hawkings is not willing to give in and its already building a new barn knowing that the next fire might take everything away again.

To tennis now austrias domany team has won the u. S. Open mens singles for the 1st time he beats germanys alexanders veteran of both players were vying for their 1st grand slam title team overcame a 2 set deficit to win the match in a 5th set tiebreaker its the 1st time in 71 years that a player as come back after losing the 1st 2 sets to win the title. So what was behind that. Within the student now is called the canon from. Kyle how did he pull this off and what it was like a magician pulling off a great escape of sorts it was pretty remarkable these are 2 id say these 2 players are the future of mens tennis and is himself one of the strongest players youll see but hes playing against somebody who was much more consistent than him id say. Took off with in this game in this match 2 games to love 2 matches to 2 sets to love story about that and he was just flying he usually starts slowly team usually started fast so it looked like it was going to take this hands down no problem 2 games 3 sets to love and in fact he started to fall apart a little bit and team started to find his rhythm and started to hit the lines like he was supposed to and it was very interesting to watch and to see as these 2 reverse their fortunes basically team that won the 3rd and 4th set sparrows was serving for the u. S. Open title however in the 5th set and he couldnt get it done team came back from 53 down took at the tiebreaker and is the u. S. Open champions of error of his left as a 2nd place runner welcome much less to both but you said that these 2 are the ones to watch whats next for them well they are so strong i mean vera as you can see back there is was just crushing he was in fact crying in the in the in the follow up to the presentation of the trophy the team won it was a real tough loss for him but he is consistently inconsistent and thats his downfall right now but i should the coffee out here is that the players who werent there were no daal federer who skipped the tournament and djokovic who was disqualified rightfully so and in a strange situation earlier in the tournament so these 2 i think will see the number one spot perhaps rotating between themselves and in future years not yet but in future years and so it was pretty cool to. See this. Is just fantastically high drama they provided and it should be interesting down the road so lets talk about the womens final was so place over the weekend know me osaka she is a brilliant player shes 22 years old so also the future of the game she beat victoria as a rank 31 year old who herself had beaten Serina Williams so those 2 were the big did play well but osaka was bringing a socially social justice theme to her game and thats pretty interesting to me because shes sort of going past the sponsors who would like to see middle of the road dont make anybody angry and dont especially in the us hurt anybodys your chances of making more money and bringing you know your sponsors more money so it was pretty cool to see her winning and at the same time taking the black black lives matter cause to a new level coming in and out of your sports thank you very much. Back here in berlin on sunday a not quite empty Olympic Stadium welcomes the worlds top track and field athletes stick around about a virus measures were in place for athletes and fans heres a look at all the event played out in the german capital. Queues outside the berlin a lympics stadium the 1st time spectators were back for an event since early march 3 and a half 1000 must fans with personalised tickets were left in thats just around 5 percent of the capacity here thats what the solution is certainly wont be as atmospheric and emotional as in previous years because there just arent that many fans here but it will still be good. At this but we having lots of top athletes here its nice that theyre getting the support and can show us a few fans some good competition these days thats quite 100 thing. Inside the stadium the atmosphere was rather subdued. Germanys more like a rehab oh the reigning long jump World Champion finished 2nd in front of the home crowd to gold by ukraines merino backroom manchu. But winning wasnt the only thing on my hamburgers mind with athletes also affected by coronavirus measures financials i think we were all tested ahead of time and as far as i know no one was positive so we could all focus on the competition without any worries as there was disinfectant everywhere and we wore a mask in the rooms and hallways only taking it off when we were on the field so i think we were all fairly safe as in. The presence of fans seemed to boost some performers olympic triple jump champion Christian Taylor secured a season best effort of 17. 57 meters is stuff organizers say everything went to plan and vague hope to be an example for Sports Events hoping to get bums back on seats. Not so much of an example in french football now and the alleged racist incident on the pitch. And star player name a host of bitter rivals must say neymar says he was the target of racist slurs from masses of our organs are less and lead in the match punched gonzalez in the back of the head clash boiled over into a full scale brawl 5 players were kicked out must say won the match one nil dollars later denied a mass a legations. And thats it from me and the news team up next as eco india with a look at how one community is trying to create more natural friendly lively sun dont forget to get all the latest news on the from a strong the focus on a website s t w dot com for me at the steam best for. India. Victory may come india. Has already planted a 1000000 trees and hopes to reach 50000000. His mission is to fight the effects of Climate Change. Inspired many followers. To call. D. W. Where the real power resides. I come from there are lots of people in fact not an agreement to do so but launches democracy maybe thats one reason why im passionate about people and aspirations and they can send. The troops and the mission reporters Fried Chicken bone and after the for the fun in one i remember thinking at the time if the battle in broken hill would happen if people come together and unite for a pool. But i do the news i often confront a dictator situations for conflict between does themselves i see despite my job to confront a good leader as an policies and development to put the spotlight on issues that matter most congo Food Security question marshall nice solution. Or not has been achieved so much more needs to be john and i think people have to be at the heart of solutions my name is on the top shes on and i work at g. W. Not every neighborhood in the city of mumbai looks this be my neighborhood has plenty of trees and plots look by charles but by design decades ago a few people should individuals championed the need for green spaces show up and be as a community now make sure that it stays this week how come. Just. Thats what we talk about to be. Alone welcome to india. Now this problem but if. In fact plenty of studies have been conducted try and get local governments in many cases best practices communities to adopt so that can be segregated and. Also on the outskirts of had a better idea. Their breaking move when it comes to Community Waste management. Surrounded by sprawling villas and luxurious gated communities one a for ages 108 acre property country in. The complex is home to 900 independent bungalows and gardens but things have not always been rosy. The fact that living in a beautiful haven like. Still was. Indifferent. And would give us. A 20 minute drive from nirvana country is one of the regions biggest land fields a large part of india as we used ends up and dump sites like this one they often catch fire sending the plumes into the air and the talks from the unfiltered broaching waist deep into the ground. Refuse to accept the poor quality around her community. Waste Management System she began to think about her role in this. Wondered how she could play her part in correcting the course of things. Her citizens want to drink committee 1st approached the Municipal Corporation of course looking for a solution at the time the corporation was flooded with options from vendors selling instant compositors machines that promise to turn organic waste into compost within 24 hours but after a few experiments they were dissatisfied with their design. Since the common 24 pastas want exactly working group came up with their own simple system of Community Composting after Much Research he finally decided to use the drum and bin method where every household contributes by 1st segregating their waste at source. Then there is a secondary segregation that happens because sometimes by mistake the residents in something which cannot go into the shadow for example sometimes pieces of plastic and maybe a broken bottle is there so this sift through it and then this week is. The resulting musk is mixed in a drum with horticultural waste and a bio enzyme so you get your nitrogen from the kitchen we use to get your carbon from the dry leaves and the bio owns im well its like the art saluting. The drums that rotated 5 times a day for every nation and to prevent them from smelling finally they are lined with dried leaves and a semi come pasta and left to mature for one and a half months. So this is what has been harvested from the metal bins after he had been moved it over to peter dont want to know months and now once its here sifted it sifted through for mango see then a little bit of plastic that sometimes left you then its just left to mature for another week or so and then it becomes a beautiful income decompose that you have seen. A lot he believes change needs to start at home to help get other local residents on board the group holds orientation and Public Awareness sessions for both residents and domestic helpers along with volunteer home visits also with little gobbets kelly that was story the key but im not home go the hasegawa takes a signal you would. Be asked and i was going no way how might end though im not a day so i do good and then it naturally begins i had laid you dont throw any plastic into the goody in ways no greenways didnt do that so its really going to stand on its not much of a problem oh so what i feel the nirvana Community Say is that in the past 4 years they have processed the highest amount of waste of any community. Weve generated close to 250 tons of forced which has been used in a lawn sold to the residents and sold or to people from outside whether wishes to buy it its available and. And also which means that the driveways thats going out. Close to about 700 pounds has been clean and has been able to go into the recycling stream. The experience of monica community and that of other municipalities in india separating waste at source is a key starting point as well as citizens making collectively informed decisions about dealing with their own waste. Reaping and read designing cities its going to be an enormous task. How do you be possible to keep the cities of the future clean for example people to be c trash the dirty smelly nuisance but we just has a huge potential smart recycling by turning all into the new can make way for a sustainable economy something the netherlands seems to be waving the way for this. Were using Natural Resources at a very fast pace some are finite others renewable but nature cant keep up with us. We also generate vast amounts of Greenhouse Gases cities account for 70 percent of them the dutch capital amsterdam is aiming to create a circular economy by 2050 that involves kid tailing the use of new materials avoiding waste and reusing as much as possible that by slashing emissions. The City Sanitation Department fishes 42. 00 tons of floating plastic trash out of the canals every year a lot more probably gets through. We never got around to ferrets of all the plastic in the ocean actually traveled by reverse to our sea ocean and quite some trash you see on the street or this is their ends up in this rivers and then of course the rivers flow to work to see you so its one of them of transport and magnus magnusson. Plus the pollution and thats why we would really like to stop it there america of elaines is behind us start up the great bubble barrier and its Ineffective Technology heres how it works a chub is laid across the bed of the waterway air is pumped out of poles along it the bubbles drive trash in the water to the surface towards the bank and into a receptacles. Tests have shown that on average 86 percent of trash in the water can be collected in this way. The garbage that ends up in the container is removed 3 times a week. For now only one bubble barrier has been installed in amsterdam its a Pilot Project but the potential both in the city and world white is enormous. You have multiple factors that have interest in this for example you can imagine that companies that have a benefit of tourists coming by they want beaches that are clean they want riversides that are clean they want to have terraces very healthy on nicely and on the moment you install such such a system you can you can make it make sure that looks nice to visit again the firm has received Financial Support from the government its also working on ways to recycle all the collected trash. Cities also generate lots of waste water as unlikely as it might seem the water flushed down our toilets contains valuable resources that could be retrieved. Scientists in the netherlands have developed a new waste Water Purification system to do just that. One of the end products is a gun they call cow mera which has many applications as a glue or binding agent in the manufacturing and construction industries. But if you want to have a circular society to ensure its going to. Waste streams and waste water is a very important way of streams and nowadays what happens if you are in the end produced by a gas whether its with bio gas a relatively low shale you application and my producing discovery and i just know we can use just before i fell you applications so what you want to do in the end the bunch of produce i show you Building Material sort of using waste water from the streets. Stunted Industrial Police are made from oil which is not good for the environment. In the new process bacteria purify the waste water. Comair is a side benefit a single plant can produce up to 800. 00 tons of ice a year. And this research is a working on new bio degradable materials. They mix cow marrow with recycled toilet paper and various combinations of peach pits and almond and pistachio shells. So far theyve made great signs undeveloped architectural cleansing material made out of 80 percent organic materials. More r. And d. Is needed before this new composite based on cow merit and toilet paper can come to market the prospects look good. For infrastructure call hardwoods thats beatable by this material and also another ministry huge markets which has a very very high c o 2 footprint and a good thing of this material if you can beat its all mechanical properties and also you have 2 properties you beat it and you are so down the price will be the challenge and i think the upcoming 10 years we will try to replace aluminum body discovered near accomplished that material. Recycling and up cycling organic waste and construction waste could be a money spinner and would certainly be good for the environment. Spend known as a great place for emissions for recycling for decades its still a long way from achieving a circular economy. The plan is to make that happen by 2050 and ambitious goal for a city determined to be a pioneer. For the last 15 years an organization in the desert of the largest part has been planting at least one tree. If somebody this is possible they plan to have trees the next mobilizing a community to restore the trees to be added to the region is not the only end it also extends to securing its peoples future and making them climate resilient. The women and children of lumber village in the state of the largest on out by the lake this morning. With all of the floating lotus flowers have disappeared and theyve thought of an ingenious way to dispose seeds in the water. If they are finding a doctor he says we can go in because its too deep on and i was so we thought wed make small balls of money with a lot to seed and each and hope they will germinate far out in the early. Next year next year it will be full of lotus flowers it would look beautiful and would also be great for the environment but if you arent getting able thats. The local and so on are volunteers with a local ngo name she called through some stands. Its young volunteers come together to help green their village and plant saplings countless trees have been cut down as the dejan has developed. They are going to official was founded by environmental activist vishnu lumber. He planted his 1st sapling when he was 11 and he now spends all his time growing saplings and distributing them across the region. The. Lumber village has adopted his philosophy and several activities revolve around the love and respect for trees. Today is how the allium of us and you in the festival. A procession winds its way through the village to a bow bob tree that stands beside the temple. Of god is believed to reside within it and to grant wishes anything from good health to financial gain. For those who never visited he says to this gathering the residents of the village sure their commitment to conserving and nurturing mother earth but the sacred tree is more than a plant it is a Guiding Force for us. Trainees are also important for the women of lumber. They have restarted to make plates from the leaves of banyan trees. And sell them to nearby villages. This is a Traditional Craft that has been neglected for some time with the women say that this is help them economically during the pandemic which has halted some of the other work. Other volunteers spend time weeding and clearing the village of invasive plants. They also replant needed species that are important for the ecosystem and have medicinal value they hope this will help build immunity at this time of danger. People here say their village is greener than others nearby and that they want to keep it that week
