And the fairytale Royal Wedding injapan but the couple celebrate without the usual pomp and circumstance. And they say its the best medicine so its no surprise that Laughter Therapy is on the rise. Well talk to an expert later. Hello and welcome to the programme. One of the worlds most criticised polluters, australia, has formally adopted a Net Zero Emissions target by 2050. Itjoins other countries Around The World in promising to make the nation Carbon Neutral by then. The prime minister, Scott Morrison, made the long delayed pledge after bargaining with resistant mps within his government. He said australia had a plan to lower emissions, but it does not include ending its massive fossil fuel sectors. Many critics have said that australia the worlds second biggest Coal Exporter has been too slow on Climate Action despite suffering from bushfires, floods and drought partly blamed on global warming. Australians want action on Climate Change. They are taking action on Climate Change but they also want to protect their jobs and their livelihoods. They also want to keep the cost of living down. And they also want to protect The Australian Way of life. Especially in rural and regional areas. Heres our correspondent Shaimaa Khalil in sydney. It is only days before he heads to the summit and now he is able to take that commitment to them just shows you that this is not smooth sailing. This is a very politically divisive issue here in australia and this has only been achieved after months of political wrangling with the governments Junior Coalition partner, the nationals that appeared and representing electrics in regional and Rural Australia where the remaining industries work. They needed their support to be able to commit to net zero x 2050 but i think, yes, the fact that Scott Morrison can now stand and publicly and for the first time in no Uncertain Terms say that australia is committed to net zero x 2050 is of course forward but all the while i think it was interesting that he was talking about The Australian Way of life. This is going to be done The Australian Way. Addressing rural and regional australia directly and saying this will not mean closing down coal or Gas Production or exports. This is going to be done to technology, not taxes. All of that shows you that there is a very fine balance to strike between the Global Climate responsibilities but also the political standing here. But also the political standing here. The veteran broadcaster, sir David Attenborough, is warning World Leaders preparing for the cop26 summit in glasgow, if they don t act on Climate Change now it ll be too late. The Documentary Maker is expected to address the conference in person or by video link.

What may strike you about changes youve seen . The devastating fires Around The World, australia and california and all around the place. That has brought home the real catastrophe that happens to ordinary people in their secure home.

But with that duty . It would destroy you. Up flames. But with that duty . It would destroy you. When you think of the it would destroy you. When you think of the poorest it would destroy you. When you think of the poorest countries, | think of the poorest countries, the people who are likely, who are being hardest hit by Climate Change. And with their voices are going to be heard at the kop 26 summit, do you worry that an up account will be taken of what theyre going to . Yes, very much so. I think it would be really catastrophic if the developed nations of the world, more powerful nations of the world simply ignored these problems. We can say is nothing to do with as and crossed her arms. We caused it. Our kind of industrialisation is one of the major factors industrialisation is one of the majorfactors in producing this changing climate. We have a moral responsibility even if we didnt cause it we would have a moral responsibility to do something about thousands of men, Women And Children who have lost everything. Lost everything. Can we just say it is no business of ours . You have to believe there is still things to be done about it. And i believe there are. The question is on a world scale, when is it too late . But it is difficult to see, well, if we dont act now it will be too late. And weve been saying that for a long time and been saying well, what we by now . And we have said, well in the next ten years. Ten years time, that is a couple of budgets away. Politicians wont do things. We have to do it now. We have to do it now.

The niece of the japanese emperor, princess mako, has married her non royal fiance, kei komuro, in unusually subdued proceedings after years of public controversy. There was no ceremony and no reception banquet. From tokyo im joined now by our correspondent Rupert Wingfield hayes. Welcome to you. Why is this wedding proved so controversial . figs wedding proved so controversial . ~ , controversial . As you say, it has been controversial . As you say, it has been described controversial . As you say, it has been described here controversial . As you say, it has been described here by| has been described here by observers as really unprecedented in how low key it has been. Literally, they sent some officials from the imperial palace this morning down to the local town office to register the marriage. The couple did not go themselves. There was no official ceremony inside the palace and the princess left the palace by car a little while ago. And she and her new husband are expected to make a brief press appearance this afternoon here in tokyo before they head off to the new married life which will see them leaving japan next month or two and going to live in new york. Now, the controversy behind all of this, these two young people met nearly ten years ago at university back in 2012. Their relationship was not made public until 2017. But after that, Tabloid Newspapers injapan after that, Tabloid Newspapers in japan started after that, Tabloid Newspapers injapan started going after him and his family background. I think a lot of people felt that or a lot of more conservative elements of Japanese Society felt that he was not a fit young man to be marrying the niece of the emperor and the daughter of the crown prince. Many people outsidejapan would think he was a perfect candidate. Very bright young man, good looking, graduate of law school, got a scholarship to america to study law and is taking the bar exams and has a job with the law firm. Most parents dream choice of a husband for their daughter. But he is the son of a single mother and his mother had some debts to a previous fianc that was outstanding and they dug this up and made a big big meal love it and that led to them delaying their marriage for three years but it is very clear that the princess has decided despite all of the criticism from the media and conservative circles here in japan on social media and elsewhere, she was determined to go ahead with this marriage. She has done so today and it appears this is, you know, a real love these two really wanted to get married despite all of the difficulty of doing so and they have now begun married life together.

Far from the eruption slowing down, a new lava channel has appeared after a second cone partially collapsed on monday. So far, lava has destroyed nearly 900 hectares of land and two thousand buildings. Hello there. After a day of sunshine and showers on monday, the weather on tuesday is going to look very different, and heres why. This cloud here in the atlantic is pushing in from the west, and thats bringing with it some outbreaks of rain. Ahead of that, though, with some clearer skies, it will be a bit cooler across Eastern Scotland and eastern parts of england. But out to the west, its milder to start the day with this rain around. Some quite heavy rain, too. That rain shouldnt last too long. In northern ireland, well see a a spell of rain pushing eastwards through the morning across scotland and northern england, but the rain further south tends to become light and patchy. Most of that rain will have cleared in the afternoon, leaving some drizzle around some western hills, but to the east of high ground, perhaps some sunshine, many places becoming dry in the afternoon. Strong south westerly winds, very mild day temperatures widely16 17 celsius, quite a bit warmer than it was on monday for the northern half of the uk. But theres still some rain in the far northwest. Thats on that Weather Front there, and that is going to move its way southwards overnight and into wednesday. Its going to hang around across some different parts of the uk during the day. All the while, though, were pulling in air from a long way south, which is why its so mild for late october. But theres some rain around, which is going to be quite heavy over some of the hills. That rain mainly affecting north wales, northwest england, could push back into parts of northern ireland, more especially into southern scotland. To the northwest, there will be some sunshine for a while and some showers, and to the south of our rain band, it should be brightening up. A little bit of sunshine coming through, still quite windy, but very mild. Temperatures getting up to 18 celsius. Now, looking at the Rain Fall Accumulation during wednesday and thursday, i want to highlight the areas that will see the heaviest of the rain. These are these bright colours here. It looks like its going to be particularly wet in the southern uplands, but also into cumbria, and that could lead to some flooding. Because that rain is still around on thursday, it may turn a bit drier across some northwestern parts of scotland and also northern ireland, as the rain just pivots into more of england and wales. Through the midlands and much of eastern england, its likely to still be dry, and with a bit of sunshine, those temperatures again reaching 18 celsius. So, a lot going on over the next few days or so. Its going to be quite windy. The winds, though, are going to be in from the southwest, which is why its going to be so mild, but as weve seen, there will be some rain around, mainly for the western side of the uk, and that will be heavy in the hills.
