the prime minister has made a plea for people to have their covid vaccination boosterjabs as he warned of a wave of infections sweeping in from across europe. in the uk, cases are falling across all four nations. here's our health editor hugh pym. people in the netherlands enjoying a final evening in bars and restaurants before a partial 3—week lockdown starting tomorrow — the government's response to rising covid infections set out by the prime minister tonight. translation: this is a hard blow of a few weeks - because the virus is everywhere throughout the country, in all sectors and in all ages. hospitality venues will have to close at 8pm, there will be early closing for supermarkets, fans will be barred from major sporting events, and households will only be allowed four visitors. i mean, i understand — it sucks, obviously, but i understand the reasoning behind it. i think we have to do it for the good of everyone else. i think mental health should be considered more than physicall health at this moment, - because everyone is suffering as much mentally as they are physically. i intensive care units in austria are under strain. the government is set to announce restrictions on those who haven't been jabbed — the country's vaccination rate is below the eu average. uk covid cases relative to the population have fallen back but the netherlands, austria and some other european countries have seen steep increases. the prime minister sounded a cautionary note about the implications of case increases across europe. i'm seeing the storm clouds gathering over parts of the european continent. i've got to be absolutely frank with people — i can — and — we've been here before and we remember what happens when the wave starts — starts rolling in. and here, ministers are pushing even harder the message people should get boosterjabs as soon as they're eligible. the hope is that will help slow the spread of covid. the latest 0ns survey suggests that last week in the uk, nearly 1.1 million people had the virus. that was down on the previous week. in england, it was one in 60 people and in wales, one in a5. in both, case rates were falling. but in northern ireland, with one in 75, and scotland, one in 85, the trend was less clear. school half—term could have been a factor, and the prime minister said it wasn't clear the drift downwards would continue. hugh pym, bbc news. now on bbc news, it's time for click. this week, more on the war against climate change. we've got buildings that love the sun. a sub that loves the waves. and robots love rubbish. , and robots that love rubbish. world is continuing to rise. and across the globe, more housing is needed. but these buildings themselves come with their own environmental cost. of course, building and running of course, building and running offices and homes contribute massively to our carbon footprint. more than 13 billion tons of c02 a year. that's nearly 40% of the world's total carbon emissions. so nearly 4096 of the world's total carbon emissions.— nearly 4096 of the world's total carbon emissions. so how about makin: carbon emissions. so how about making buildings _ carbon emissions. so how about making buildings that _ carbon emissions. so how about making buildings that are -

the lower levels. the key difference between the i difference between the conventional technology is that it uses coal whereas here, we use hydrogen and the hydrogen is made from fossil free electricity and that is happening right behind us in that building where we have two units making hydrogen out of electricity and water. find units making hydrogen out of electricity and water. and this is the end _ electricity and water. and this is the end product, _ electricity and water. and this is the end product, the - electricity and water. and this | is the end product, the world's first piece of fossil free steel, and this steel was delivered to volvo who made it into an autonomous vehicle. they actually made a vehicle that was shown mid october. we need to make not only our customers by the end user understand the benefits, understand the benefits, understand the benefits, understand the difference with other types of steel. i think the conversations we are having with our customers today is very important and i think, and i know, it is very frequent. to kee- i know, it is very frequent. to keep the process of making hydrogen cost—effective, accessible be stored in a new underground facility. so this is where they are building a future hydrogen storage site, so it's going to be 30 metres underground, about 100m behind me, and any excess hydrogen produced at the plant, they can save here so they can produce it in times when energy is plentiful, when there is a lot of solar and wind energy, and it can be used in the future to help your plant. is there something that can be replicated anywhere in the world? do you need specific document?— world? do you need specific document? . ., ., , , document? the technology can be relicated document? the technology can be replicated but _ document? the technology can be replicated but i _ document? the technology can be replicated but i think _ document? the technology can be replicated but i think the -
