now on bbc news, it is time to take a look at how lives have been dramatically altered in iraq and kuwait by global warming. if you don't live here and you're not affected by it every day, you forget that it's happening. but it is. i'm already hot. i'm not even outside. normally i like to start my days off with a dog walk. come on, lily. we need to make it super early so that my little fur baby can walk on the ground without burning himself. are your paws 0k? i think it was around 56 this year, as supposedly high as it got, but it feels like 60! yeah, it's hot! did you get dehydrated? it sucks the life out of you. that's it, you're like this... and then that's it, you're just like this. let's go home, it's out. i'm done, girl. today i have a really special guest. this is... hi, guys its hin. i think in my line of work with me doing a lot of content creation i can see when the heat does affect me. the heat impact your life in ways you don't necessarily anticipate. it makes things that are supposed to be one minute longer one hour long. are you going to sit down? do you want the aircon? 0ne are you going to sit down? do you want the aircon? one thing i didn't anticipate when i finally had children was that noah had this tiny little being that needed to be protected from the sun. and because i had rearfacing car from the sun. and because i had rear facing car seats, from the sun. and because i had rearfacing car seats, the ac never actually touched the aircon, so we would turn the car on 30 minutes before, but theice car on 30 minutes before, but the ice packs and before i could place him in it, and then we had a tube that would extend from the front ac to the back door so we could make sure that we could get him enough air—conditioning in a rear facing car seat. that is the reality for all parents here. push the door! push, push, push. do you want to traders? mango and strawberry. is that chocolate? i have spent my entire adult life in kuwait, but i did have some time growing up in the states, being on my bike and outside, making tree houses, climbing trees. i guess i really did want that for my own children. how is it? is it cold? i think there is a common misconception that you should split your time between multiple countries if you are kuwaiti, the assumption that you should justly leave when it gets too hot is not possible for everybody. this is the hardest i have ever seen kuwait. it is getting to the point where it is really unbearable and a think everything about living here is hostile, sometimes. do you like something inside or outside more? inside. why? do yourfeet more? inside. why? do your feet are when you walk outside? yes. it concerns me that the only like my children have known is in scorching heat. they want to be kids and go to the playground. they will beg to go all day, we will break and finally go, and it will be so unbearable that we end up going back home. the absolute best invention in the world. the only way to stop it. look, you can't even feel it. look, you can't even feel it now. there is absolutely no way to survive here without ac. i think what is really disturbing about that is that you are calling a little section but you are heating up outside, and so we are in this awful, awful cycle of trying to call ourselves down but also heating up the country even more as we go on. i think that we've gotten a little fatigued with the idea of climate change. you've got to stop using straws to save the turtles and turn off your lights in your back door might bathroom to leave, when you leave the house and it gets a little tiring but the big picture is what it means to live here and i do worry and these are some of my largest fears is that my children are so young right now and these are public the best days of their life in terms of weather. if you don't live here and you're not affected by it every day, you forget that it's happening but it is and it is terrifying. if we are looking into the future, i don't see how much longer we can consider kuwait habitable. we have some pretty quiet weather to come across the uk in the next few days. but the end of the we could definitely offer is something rather more dramatic. for now though, it's about light winds and those winds coming in from the south—west or the west will bring some relatively mild air. this amber colour behind me showing air that's been pulled in quite a long way south across the atlantic indicating quite a warm feel to tuesday across parts of england and wales. you may have noticed some colder air to the far north of the uk. temperatures will struggle to get the double figures across northern most scotland with some squally showers here. elsewhere, we are looking at i think at the low to mid—teens, there will be some rain to the day for northern england and wales. but we should see brighter skies north of the front for much of scotland and northern ireland, and to the south across southern and eastern england. and this front is set to stick around through wednesday and thursday, slowly making its way south across the uk. turning things quite murky, i think, across southern and eastern england into the small hours of wednesday, but it will stay very mild here. that slightly colder air sneaks further south into scotland into the small hours of wednesday. we could see a patchy frost inside some of the sheltered glens to the north. here's our front on wednesday, still lurking to the south of the uk. it's looking much clearer. further north for scotland and northern ireland, there should be some sunshine, just the chance of a few scattered showers in the far north and west. some sunshine for northern england and wales and an improved picture on tuesday. whereas for southern and eastern counties of england, it will be much grayer, much gloomier and there's a chance some patchy rain on and off. and then for thursday, still the remnants of that weather front close to the south of the uk could mean some thicker cloud around here for a time and a little bit of rain. but actually for thursday, we are largely focusing on a ridge of high pressure, a lot of fine weather and light winds. i think potentially some rain getting into northern ireland by the end of the day, and the wind starting to kick up and here's why. this area of low pressure looks like it could deepen for the end of the week and come swinging our way from the atlantic. quite a bit of uncertainty as to when and where exactly on friday that low will move in, but do keep it in the back of your mind as the potential for strong winds on friday. hello. welcome to bbc news. i'm david eades. our top stories: the former president getting the 5—star treatment. 0bama addresses the climate summit and tells young activists to stay angry. harness that frustration. keep pushing harder and harderfor more and more. poland accuses belarus of trying to trigger a major confrontation along the border as it attempts to stop thousands of migrants from entering the country. the worst humanitarian crisis on earth — that is the warning from the united nations that millions of people in afghanistan could be starving within weeks unless the world steps in to help. the winter months are coming, we're coming out of a drought.
