Critics say the introduction of the national Security Law a year ago is giving china complete control of this semi autonomous city. Control over its territory has long been a goal of the chinese communist party. Every chinese schoolchild is taught about the 100 years of humiliation, when china was weak and divided by foreign nations, when Hong Kong was still a british colony. Theres No Doubt the law is changing Hong Kong. Ah nam was once part of the student protest movement. Translation most of our generation is going through this.

What can i do . Im not going to change the way i live just because there is something so vague going around in society. If anything, im duty bound to prove that citizens of Hong Kong should not live in fear. Hong kong was promised certain political freedoms for 50 years after the handover. July 1 marks 2a years since this city was returned to china, but today, many fear those freedoms are already being eroded. Danny vincent, bbc news, Hong Kong. Football now, and the last places in the Quarter Finals of Euro 2020 have been decided. England have come out on top against one of their fiercest rivals. Goals from Raheem Sterling and Harry Kane secured a 2 0 victory over germany the first time england have beaten their rivals in the knock out stages of a major tournament since the 1966 World Cup final. This didnt happen since 1966. They have lost every one of their games against germany. Fans arrived at wembley hopeful that those near misses, the disappointments, could finally be put to one side at long last time. Forthese be put to one side at long last time. For these england fans to celebrate because it is a huge victory, a special victory, and one, as i say, shaped by the history and events and disappointments and upsets that have gone before. The Penalty Shootout that was suffered here against germany at wembley in 1966 and since Chris Waddle missed the decisive penalty which saw germany go through at the semi final stage. But i think perhaps now these england fans and Gareth Southgate can start putting those disappointments to one side because now they have been germany in a Knockout Match in a tournament and they will go through to the Quarter Finals. Ican i can tell you who they will be playing. Ukraine beat sweden with a goal in the very last minutes of extra time and it was 1 1 at full time when swedens Daniel Stevenson was sent off at the start of extra time, though, you ukraine dominated the match.

That heatwave that has swept across much of canada and the North Western United States is one very clear example of climate change. It is notjust Set Record temperatures, it is also claiming lives copy i am joined now by the Associate Professor of global Public Health at the St Luke � s medical centre in the philippines. Thank you very much forjoining us. A long way from the North West of america, nonetheless, i think perhaps what that illustrates is for clarity of a link between an extreme condition, the climate condition, and Public Health, and even helps to be able to relate so directly . Relate so directly . Yes. You are right. Relate so directly . Yes. You are right, david, relate so directly . Yes. You are right, david, and relate so directly . Yes. You are right, david, and thank| relate so directly . Yes. You i are right, david, and thank you for having me here. Climate change is a global problem but it many different manifestations in different parts of the world. As you may be aware, here in the philippines, we do not yet have heat but we do encounter other extreme weather events such as strong typhoons and intense flooding which impact thousands if not millions of lives each year. If not millions of lives each ear. , if not millions of lives each ear,. , ,. , if not millions of lives each ear. , ,. ,. , year. Perhaps more extreme than the occasional year. Perhaps more extreme than the occasional heatwave year. Perhaps more extreme than the occasional heatwave that the occasional heatwave that may be vancouver might have to experience, and one of the points about the philippines, i guess, it is recognised as one of the most vulnerable countries in the world in terms of being at risk to climate. What is the impact on individuals of another hurricane, of a typhoon, of a recognition that crops are drying out because the conditions are so harsh . We alwa s conditions are so harsh . We always say conditions are so harsh . We always say that conditions are so harsh . Always say that climate change is a multiplayer, because for instance in places like the philippines there are a lot of Health Problems and climate change further exacerbates the living conditions which in turn also worsens health outcomes, so for instance, when calamities such as typhoons or extreme flooding do strike, of course there is direct impact in terms of injury and debts, but also, Waterborne Diseases for instance that increase, or Mosquito Borne Diseases like Dengue And Malaria are also being increased and more People are being affected. And of course when another calamity such as a typhoon also hits farmlands, then that can lead to destroyed crops and decreased harvest which ultimately will lead to reversals and nutritional gains especially and impoverished communities. Especially and impoverished communities. Interesting you mentioned communities. Interesting you mentioned farmers communities. Interesting you mentioned farmers there communities. Interesting you mentioned farmers there because they also have to deal with the financial health of their own business, the physical health that might be put under. May be more than anything, Mental Health struggles which of course affects everyone . Yes. And as you course affects everyone . Yes. And as you are course affects everyone . Yes. And as you are aware, course affects everyone . Yes. And as you are aware, in course affects everyone . Yes. And as you are aware, in the l and as you are aware, in the philippines, we have been frequented by a lot of typhoons and every time there is a calamities such as a typhoon happens, there is trauma and Mental Stress that happens right after, especially in vulnerable communities, especially children, for instance, but now we are also seeing, slowly and unfortunately, the long term effects of climate change such as droughts and Food Insecurity or, for instance, Sea Level Rise which affects coastal communities, can also generate a new form of what is now being called Climate Anxiety, People are so unsure of what the future holds. Future holds. That is the climate future holds. That is the climate Anxiety Future holds. That is the Climate Anxiety writ future holds. That is the l Climate Anxiety writ large, isnt it . Thank you very much for that. May now want to turned to the President And Ceo of the world resources institute, that of the global Research Organisation that seeks to protect nature. He joins me now from washington, dc. Thank you very much for joining us. It is very interesting to look at how cities can or cant adapt to some of these climate challenges. What do you say to a place like vancouver for example which suddenly get this extraordinary increase in bridges that it was an expect and would naturally prepare for . , ~. ,. , for . Cities like vancouver are actually quite for . Cities like vancouver are actually quite wellprepared, actually quite well prepared, they have been preparing for this and have a Resilience Plan to deal with it and we havent seen these Temperature Rises we have seen rises of different kinds across the world. A city in argentina had worked with citizens to use land to convert to agriculture and produce food that not only reduce the temperature but protect the city from floods. But we are seeing cities getting aware of what the problems are, getting ready, we are trying to find low cost solutions that actually can attack multiple problems at the same time. In the case of rosario they not only produce healthy Food Close to home but created jobs for a lot of People. Created obs for a lot of People. Created obs for a lot of eole. , , created obs for a lot of neole. ,. , People. That of course is a very good People. That of course is a very good illustration. Very good illustration. Nonetheless, these things cost, dont they. And perhaps a city like vancouver might be able to put into place a plan, although i think a lot of People in the city themselves would say i am not sure if the plan is working, we cant get an air conditioning unit, we cant get this and that it we are struggling, but is money the key issue . Struggling, but is money the Ke Issue . ,. , key issue . Money is obviously the key issue, key issue . Money is obviously the key issue, but key issue . Money is obviously the key issue, but what key issue . Money is obviously the key issue, but what is key issue . Money is obviously l the key issue, but what is more important is to be aware of the problem. There are a lot of low cost solutions in the world that can help cities, the awareness of the Problem And Planning for it is a primary issue, cities can be designed differently, that doesnt cost more money, it isjust a matter of design. There can be Water Supply that is not polluted Thatis Supply that is not polluted that is used because we are seeing across the world, with heat and the change of climate is impacting what is happening to portable water so money is theissue, to portable water so money is the issue, we definitely need more money to go to adaptation of cities for climate but better planning and better design, getting communities involved is also a solution that at least for now we see has a huge impact. Has a huge impact. Getting communities has a huge impact. Getting communities involved has a huge impact. Getting communities involved is i has a huge impact. Getting communities involved is an interesting point. We heard my other guest theyre talking about the anxiety created by these climate challenges. Do you see Climate Anxiety as a good motivating force in terms of making People realise what they need to do, or a bad one . I think any motivation for Climate Action is a good one. Im not sure Climate Anxiety is common across, there are some places you mentioned where People are seeing wildfires and parts of the United States right now, cities like portland had 160 degrees, i think, unprecedented heat. Some places it is the Climate Anxiety. I think what we need to work on is whatever is needed. And some places it mightjust be water suoply, places it mightjust be Water Supply, someplace that might be better roads. It is to get what is needed in this particular place and get enough solutions that are Climate Solutions that are politically palatable, attractive, that not only solves Climate Problems but also makes Peoples lives better, createsjobs, so better, creates jobs, so anxiety better, createsjobs, so anxiety i think is a good thing to motivate People but might not be common across the world because what we are seeing is different manifestation. If they can give you one more example, in india People are losing lives because of Heat Stopping 12,000 People die of Heat StoppingPeople think, was normal, itsjust hot. But that is not the case, it is becoming hotter because of climate change. � s i think we need to focus on what motivates People to take action. find Focus on what motivates People to take action. To take action. And ust on that last i to take action. And ust on that last point, to take action. And ust on that last point, i h to take action. And just on that last point, i did to take action. And just on that last point, | did ca that last point, i did ca forget something like 60 of the changes needed in terms of managing climate will involve behavioural change, we are the ones who have got to change, individuals. It is notjust the bigger picture of big decisions taken from on high. How do you reach that sort of Recognition Level . I reach that sort of Recognition Level . ~ ,. , level . I think this is a fantastic level . I think this is a fantastic one, level . I think this is a fantastic one, i level . I think this is a fantastic one, i think| level . I think this is a i fantastic one, i think Al Behaviour has to change. We all have to make it work. So for example in places where consumption is high, we need to figure out how to consume less. You see in london for example, some have been very successful in using Air Quality to create different transportation policy, getting polluting cars and trucks off the street. And other places in the world it will be behaviours that is about consumption of water, consumption of energy. Im consumption of energy. Im Auoin Consumption of energy. Im going to consumption of energy. Im going to stop consumption of energy. Im going to stop you there because we have to stop in a word, are you optimistic . You optimistic . Im very optimistic.

So far this week, its northern and western areas which have seen the best of the sunshine and the highest temperatures. Further east has been cloudier with outbreaks of rain. But as we move towards the end of this week, it looks like High Pressure will start to build in, so it will turn sunnier across Eastern Areas. Therell still be the Odd Shower here and there, and then into the weekend, it looks more unsettled. For wednesday, you can see the Pressure PatternHigh Pressure to the north and west, so largely clear with some sunshine here, but low pressure again over the near continent will affect eastern parts of the country. Well start quite grey, i think, through this morning for many areas, but the sunshine will become more widespread across scotland and northern ireland, western england and wales. The Odd Shower here, there may be a odd heavy one. But eastern england, the southeast, again, a rather grey day with some patchy Light Rain or drizzle, feeling cool across North Sea coasts with a fresh breeze here, further west with the sunshine into the low 20s celsius. It looks like it could be another grey day on wednesday for wimbledon and then, thursday and friday, Itll Turn sunnier and warmer with temperatures reaching the mid 20s celsius. So through wednesday night, we hold onto the cloudy skies again across the east and southeast, the Odd Shower here. Further north and west, though, you can see clearer skies so itll be a Bit Cooler where we have those clear spells, single figure values in places. For most, i think were looking at 10 12 celsius. For thursday, that area of low pressure starts to pull away from the east, but still close enough to produce thicker cloud and the Odd Shower again, a fairly brisk northerly breeze across Eastern Areas will peg temperatures back. But elsewhere, plenty of sunshine around scotland and northern ireland, the midlands, western england and wales apart from the Odd Shower, most places should be dry, and again, temperatures reaching the low 20s celsius. On friday, higher pressure builds in, so it looks like we should see more sunshine around even across the South East. And itll be warm, 25 26 celsius. There could be the Odd Shower around, it might well be plenty dry, but emphasis will be on dry and sunny weather. As we head on into the weekend, though, low pressure starts to take back control, meaning we will start to see increasing amounts of showers, particularly on sunday where some of them could be really heavy and thundery. But itll be a mixture of sunshine and showers both saturday and sunday, like i mentioned, with sunday seeing the heaviest of those downpours. This is bbc news. Im david eades, with headlines.
