Im generous with the sports to the semifinal be Asian Champions League and in formula one max the 2nd denies this elite to smash for red bull at the Abu Dhabi Crown prince. Warning that the world is facing a dramatic emergency and thats why u. N. Secretary general is urging leaders to declare climate emergencies in their own countries speaking at the virtual climate ambitions summit until you get out of said we need to stop the assault on our planet for the sake of our grandchildren the meeting marks the 5th anniversary of the powers climate accord and in 2015 countries agreed to stop Global Temperatures rising 2 degrees celsius above preindustrial levels and trying to get terrorist told leaders that they should not hesitate to take aggressive action against Climate Change no. This is a moment of truce this is also a moment of hope more and more countries have committed to net 0 emissions the business communitys getting on board the sustainability train we see city striving to become greener and more live a bull we see young people taking on responsibility and demanding it of others the promise of a net 0 world a reality now on the past a cop 26 i urge everyone to show him bisham stop the assault on our planet and do what we need to get into the future of our children and grandchildren for our sins then extreme weather events from droughts wildfires and super storms are taken their toll and highlighted a renewed call for action so how is the world placed in its battle against Climate Crisis like clarke takes a look it was an extraordinary moment after endless years of negotiations nations of the world united in this common cause and the Paris Agreement was born that. The law for celebrations they were short lived within 18 months a quarter was in deep trouble suddenly u. S. Leadership was lost i am the United States will withdraw from the paris. Climate acourt well in the 5 years since Paris National commitments to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions well they havent measured up and time is running out remember the agreement ange to stop Global Temperatures from rising 2 degrees celsius above preindustrial levels ideally one and a half degrees but average Global Temperatures are right now as i speak at 1. 00 degrees and climbing and the impacts of a warming world theyre already shocking displacing millions and costing billions extreme weather events are becoming all too familiar from superstorm stew record wildfires from heat waves to devastating floods ice packs theyve continued to diminish at both poles with the current decade the warmest on record it sounds bad it is bad and yet despite it all suddenly theres an opportunity president elect joe biden has pledged to return the United States to the Paris Agreement the worlds 2nd biggest emitter of Greenhouse Gases back at the table and the number one a matter thats china responsible for 28 percent of global emissions they promise Carbon Neutrality by 2060 other countries have followed suit japan and south korea committing to net 0 by 2050 joining the u. K. The e. U. And next year the United States and hopefully more to come out of the tragedy of the covert pandemic suddenly Major Economies are eyeing a Green Recovery with trillions of dollars in stimulus Funds Available i think yes we are in a moment i would say in a turning point in a moment in history and its in my view its a great opportunity very few who either send very few generations have the opportunity to become so relevant for at history overall it doesnt mean that it is going to be easy on the contrary i think these bullets on our shoulder. And even be there by sponsibility the thing is nations pledging action is one thing implementing policies to ensure new found hope is not misguided well thats quite another but never will there be a better opportunity to realize the goals of the Paris Agreement and to put the brakes on the worst effects of Climate Change on the babies the chief executive of 3rd generation environmentalism an independent european think tank he says Clean Energy Technology has become cheaper and developing countries need support to adopt it. The cost of clean energy if for instance parents fall faster than we have a thought around 30 years also of offshore wind solar electric vehicles the u. K. Just published really Detailed Analysis of how it was going to get to Carbon Neutrality by 2050 and it was cheaper than its previous target which didnt get there and cheaper than all talk as we had 10 years ago if there were much more ambitious so the key driver now is its cheaper to go clean because you know how to do it as a former economist who works in the state people overplay the importance of Global Carbon taxes and trading on the key issue is investment and so just because its cheap doesnt mean its easy to many of specially from the developing countries suffering from coal that you have a lot of money to spend they havent got the money to invest in the new Clean Technologies which would be better for them economically and for their people so the key things we need to do is make access to finance and access to new technologies for the poor countries so they can benefit from the Clean Energy Revolution rather than just the same old rich middle Income Countries china us europe benefiting and making all these new products we have to decide how we build back out of the cove into recession we have to decide if were going to meet the ambition of the climate targets if we do both together then we really do the foundations for a more stable a more equal a better world with cleaner and better jobs and less energy in security so Climate Change is having a devastating impact in the mountain regions of france ski resorts are closed because of unreliable snow fall and scientists in the alps said the rising temperatures are causing mountains to crumble the tasha buffet reports. Striking and majestic the french alps arent chanting sight for thousands of years people have lived and worked in the mountains or simply come to eat my them but something to swallow in peace ancient peaks a crumbling rising temperatures are melting permafrost the face inside. Illinois that holds them together speeding up erosion and triggering dangerous rock falls glaciologist frost manuf says the high Vertical Rock faces of the alps are particularly vulnerable to changes in temperature. In effect we have noticed that in warm periods particularly the last 2 or 3 decades rockfalls have been more frequent than in past colder decades or so when the summers a very hot as they were in 20032015 the rock falls happened more often than they see as an also melting faster than before there are 4000 in the alps chain that spans 7 countries Scientists Say half will have disappeared by 2050 Climate Changes also transforming low altitude mountains like those in the photos region in eastern france its still snowing here every winter inventor on the problem is the snow fall has become less reliable the ski season much shorter so thats why been operated this year has decided to close the resort. Dukes grandfather created the ski resort his family have always run it is odd competed in the olympics shutting the resort down wasnt an easy decision but he says he had no choice he now plans to build a luxury hotel to attract tourists all year round. The ski stations face the same problem because the work you need snow at the right time during the holidays and good weather so its hard to have all that in a short season we used to have a bad winter every decade now its every 3 years so its impossible to recover. Rising temperatures a forced dozens of ski resorts to close in france in recent years scientists warn than unless more is done to stop Climate Change snow capped mountains and glistening places may 1 day become things of the past Natasha Butler aljazeera venture on live.

The u. S. Is expected to begin administering its 1st covert 1000 vaccination within days now thats awful Health Officials authorized the pfizer biotech vaccine for emergency use the head of the u. S. Drug regulator a sought to reassure the public of its safety head of its rollers and urged people not to let their guard down but this vaccine met the f. D. A. As rigorous standards for quality safety and efficacy science and data guided the f. D. A. Decision we worked quickly based on the urgency of this pandemic not because of any other extra no pressure this decision was based on the strongest scientific integrity and i am so proud of the work that our career scientists have done while our federal partners are already taking steps to distribute this vaccine we remind the public to remain vigilant as an occupation will take time. The u. S. Is the hardest hit hospitals and pharmacies have been preparing for a nationwide Immunization Campaign but if eyes are vaccine needs to be kept at ultra cold temperatures some states are worried there will be enough dry ice to transported news of a covert 1000 vaccine in the u. S. Cant come soon enough with daily cases soaring to record highs therell be more than 15000000 infections and nearly 300000 deaths well as a live to john hendren whos in washington for us john just talk us through what the logistics are going to be of this rollout because we heard stephen hahn the commissioner of the f. D. A. There being enthusiastic about it but at the same time warning people to be patient. Thats right the f. D. A. Commissioner has just spoken already finds or says that that vaccine is on the move now what would happen now is that the f. D. A. Has selected 636. 00 sites actually i should say thats operation work speed general good stuff perner spoke just a short while ago and said theyve selected these 636 sites pfizer is already patched packaging them up will deliver them from its michigan Production Facility to hubs for u. P. S. And fed ex and they will transmit it 1st on monday to 145 sites then over the next couple of days to the remaining 636 locations across the u. S. That will get the initial dose of that vaccine but youre right theres not really very much to go around were talking about 3000000 doses being sent out initially and thats for a country of 320 something 1000000 people the 1st people to get that vaccine will be the 1st responders doctors nurses and other medical officials and then those who are extremely Vulnerable People in Nursing Homes in veterans facilities and that will go out just within the next few days President Trump has already sent out a video claiming credit for this he had been tweeting on friday at the f. D. A. Commissioner Stephen Hunter telling him to stop playing games and start saving lives han had planned to approve this on saturday instead got it approved on friday now the centers for Disease Control is meeting and is expected to recommend distribution which will begin within days john thanks very much indeed john hendren talking to us from washington d. C. I want to talk to julie fisher shes an associate Research Professor of microbiology and immunology at Georgetown University medical. Center shes joining us now from washington d. C. Good to have you with us as always on. I want to talk about what john was mentioning the pressure that donald trump is putting on publicly on the f. D. A. Commissioner to move this along and get this approved what kind of impact does that public pressure have on the Public Perception of the vaccine that is the biggest concern because the f. D. A. Was already firmly in the process of moving forward on the recommendations of a Technical Advisory Group that met this week that indicated that the benefits of the vaccine outweigh the risks and that it was important to begin moving forward so they have today had already begun acting on that process and moving forward in a way that is actually unprecedented pace so the biggest concern is that that very open political pressure might give the public the impression that they process have been accelerated or corners cut and that is really simply not the case its a matter of just a few hours difference in announcing on saturday morning versus friday night. Best is critical of course and they were in there when stephen hammers making his statement a couple of hours ago or so he was taking it appeared at great pains to say that nothing medical in terms of testing and so on had no corners being cut theyre the only corners that had to being cut had been red tape where it was safe for them to do so and of course as we were just talking to john about the fact that he was also insisting that this is not going to be a fast process this is going to take some time isnt it. Yes because theres a lot of logistics involved in getting the vaccines out to the states and then from there to the facilities at the local level that will begin administering the 1st vaccinations the u. S. Centers for Disease Control prevention c. D. C. Has made recommendations about how states should prioritize those 1st recipients but then at this point its really up to the states and their planning and support to get the vaccines to the people who are in line and prioritized to be among those 1st to receive the doses and of course that assumes that people want to take the dose and there will be a significant number of people in america who are very skeptical about the background of any vaccine and will be resistant to this thats going to be a significant issue isnt it. It is and it comes back to that issue that you raised about Public Confidence and trust the f. D. A. And the regulatory authorities in the us have worked with Public Private partnerships the pharmaceutical companies that have produced the vaccines and the the researchers who have helped review and evaluate the safety data to really bring these to people in record time a faster pace than we would have ever expected by cutting out what you might call the dead space the time between phases of vaccine trials when we would normally take lots of time to review the data instead were putting pressure. On the regulatory process to speed up not on the safety process and i think what its really important for people to understand right now is that the data on the vaccine safety were reviewed the hearings were very transparent very public the data has been published we know there will be adverse events but most of them are our side effects that are signs that the immune system is very active in actually making an Effective Response and i think its just very important right now for people to understand that the evaluation of the safety and the efficacy of the vaccines has not been sped up or abbreviated its the the evaluation phases when we bring the experts together to give their advice and then to turn it into recommendations that we have put pressure on we really appreciate you giving us the benefit of your expertise julie fisher as always thank you very much indeed thank you for having me a number of countries across asia are reporting a rise in corona virus cases after initial success in containing its spread takes a look at whats behind the surge.

Venezuelans are voting in a referendum organized by Opposition Leader one quiet till it follows last weeks parliamentary elections in which president Nicolas Maduro regained the power of the National Assembly the referendum is asking people whether they want to end models rule to hold elections like the medicare to the sea and human is full of events from chiles capital sons jago shes joining us live from there one would have thought that by this time that the lines would have been drawn essentially about whether or not people wanted to go what is the opposition trying to achieve with this referendum. Theyre trying to have a comeback theyre trying to remain valid after what has happened last sunday which was the legislative elections you just alluded to in which the opposition did not take part and in which. The president could ask my daughter basically won over hands down all the seats in the new congress and so present the Opposition Leader why though is trying to make a statement here were still exist trying to give something for opponents of the government to hang onto i would say at this point it is a really rather desperate move but most of this this referendum or consultation as they call it was done online both abroad and inside venezuela but most of it is leylands dont have a decent the internet or connectivity there was the news media is controlled by the government so they didnt even know in many cases that this was going on and whats happening right now is the culmination of this process what were hearing is that in venezuela several of the voting stations that were set up by the opposition have been broken down by the quality of the armed groups that are loyal to the government in the state of the boxes where the votes were put in were taken on. A some people have been beat up but more or less it is going smoothly remember this is not going to be recognized by the government even though it is supposed to be binding of courting to the venezuelan constitution but as i say this its even here in chile where i am right now in a venezuelan neighborhood because were in a total lockdown on the weekends you only see very very few people who are out going to the media markets and they have to have a special license to go out so they wont be able to vote as well which means that the turnout is not expected to be massive outside or inside of venezuela the National Assembly was really the only official body that the opposition had any sort of influence if indeed it. Is all over it must be all skiing itself what the future no holds. The opposition is thats a say trying to read. A gauge with the people of venezuela and with the International Community which is beginning to become disappointed shall we stay with with the way things have turned out so far after nearly 2 years of Massive International sanctions against the government lots of solidarity from the overseas community and initially a lot of support from the local Community Inside venezuela this has seems to have waned so this is an attempted to kind of make that happen again to do re infuse the venezuelan people i spoke a short while ago to lowball the locus he is probably the most wanted man in venezuela by the government he escaped the country a short while ago is based in spain but he is now out in colombia trying to get the vote out and i asked him what was the point of doing this. The idea behind to gather Popular Support venezuelans and outside our territory to support 1st. Last sunday there was a fraught 2nd or commitment to have free and fair president ial elections and 3rd its a message for the International Community that we need all the pressure we need all the support in order to reach freedom and free and Fair Elections in venezuela so the idea is to organize mobilize and promote the active consciousness of the venezuelan people everywhere in the world in venezuela and outside to gather around a common objective. What theyre really trying to do though is to show the International Community that theyre still united that they are still there that theyre still fighting and willing to resist think he might go to a government that they want free elections and they want more help and more pressure well have to see what happens in the coming days and months whether or not the opposition can achieve that thats a lot in america and its in this in human talking to us from chiles couple in santiago to see it thank you very much the u. S. Supreme court has rejected a legal bid from the state of texas to overturn the results of the president ial election donald trump had backed the lawsuit that sought to throw out results in 4 key states won by joe biden today getting reports. Many legal experts in the us predicted this outcome the Supreme Court dismissed a bid by the state of texas to overturn the president ial Election Results much to the anger of trump who tweeted the Supreme Court really let us down no wisdom no courage trump and his republican allies wanted the court to set aside results in 4 states won by president elect joe biden michigan pennsylvania and wisconsin 18 Republican Attorney generals and 126 republican members of congress supported the lawsuit bought in a short statement the court said that texas has not demonstrated educationally called musical interest in the manner in which another state conducts its elections bidens team celebrated the decision saying the Supreme Court has decisively and speedily rejected the latest of donald trump and his allies attacks on the democratic process this is no surprise dozens of judges Election Officials from both parties and trumps own attorney general have dismissed his baseless attempts to deny he lost the election trump and other republican organizations have brought more than 52 seats in various states theyve achieved partial success in only one but legal analysts say trump may continue to try to overturn the Election Results i dont count now for trying to just do Something Else even though it probably wont get anywhere because it is over as of monday when the Electoral College to me but we cannot be in the head down to think what he might try to do next but this was really his last day on there critics of trump say his refusal to concede defeat has damaged the integrity of the u. S. Electoral process and bidens victory will be officially certified by the Electoral College next week the tory gating be out there. Since june 18000 members of the minority have returned since are in Northern Iraq over 300000 slides for an awful invaded the Region Community now hopes to rebuild but many of them feel theyve been excluded from important decisions about how to govern the area so when the whole team reports. The iraqi army is once again in charge of sindar home to iraqs easy to a religious minority the district is one of several disputed areas claimed by both the Central Government in bucca bad and the semi autonomous kurdish region it has changed hands 5 times since 2003 as part of an agreement between the 2 sides in october but deployed its army to take control. Of the security situation inside is the responsibility of the police and iraqi army controls all the suburbs districts and subdistricts the security is table inside there is no flag other than the iraqi flag hosted inside the town all the positions are under the control of the Iraqi Government. After the fall of the late former president Saddam Hussein in 2003 Kurdish Peshmerga fighters controlled singe our while the iraqi army was deployed further south both abandoned their positions in 2014 when the Islamic State of iraq and the levant or eisel launched an offensive across Northern Iraq much of the city of sendai was destroyed during the conflict there is a lack of trust among the easier the minority towards both the federal government in baghdad and the Regional Government in kurdistan due to the decades of neglect and because those forces failed to protect them when i saw swept through singe are killing an abducted thousands more over they feel that they have not been meaningfully included in the negotiations that determine the future governance of their region. Among those not consulted on the agreement are easy the armed groups that sprung up in 2014 to help survivors escape eisel and who fought to retake singe are this group called the sindar resistance units has now handed over several checkpoints to the iraqi army but their commander told al jazeera that the fighters will remain in the mountains the monarchy has we want guarantees to keep the residents of sin just safe we will not. To a specific Political Party and we will not allow anyone to deal with sin jar in an oppressive way the singe or resistance units are closely affiliated with the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party while other armed groups operating in the district are linked to iran many People Living in sin jar say they are tired of living at the mercy of competing political interests and some welcome the presence of the iraqi army. Having the Iraqi Government here is better for us there are many parties and illegal armed factions here if the Iraqi Government is here the situation will be better and the security will be better but there are concerns that the parties to the agreement will meddle in the selection of the local government and police force choosing people who serve their interests. Should themselves form the local police the name should be chosen by the people of certain jaw years after being displaced by the conflict with a 3rd of the inhabitants have returned and are beginning to rebuild their homes that means theyll be able to cast their ballots in elections in sindar next year and have a chance to have their voices heard and choose their own leaders seem awful to an aljazeera sindar.
