than twenty years. british prime minister boris johnson has described a global accord to speed up action against climate change as "truly historic" and "the beginning of the end for coal power". but his remarks come after the president of the cop26 climate conference, alok sharma, said india and china will have to �*justify�* themselves to the world's most vulnerable countries — after the two nations demanded last—minute changes to the climate deal, softening commitments to reduce the use of coal. let's take a quick look at what's agreed. the deal says limiting average global temperatures to 1.5 celsius above pre—industrial levels, by the year 2100, is still attainable. scientists have said that amount, by then, would avoid the worst impacts of climate change. but there's controversy over the pledge about coal — which now says its use should be phased down, rather than phased out. among other things, the deal also pledges more money for poorer countries to help them adapt. our science editor, david shukman, reports. it was billed as a landmark moment in our relations with the planet. but did the glasgow conference do anything to limit the rise in temperatures? the man at the centre of the talks, alok sharma, had to shuttle between delegations. china and india not allowing coal to be phased out, only to be "phased down". the pressure really showed at one point. and the final wording on coal has left disappointment. but this evening in downing street, mr sharma admitted how the deal was very nearly lost. for months, people have been asking me, some of you good people have been asking me, "do you feel the weight of the world on your shoulders?" and i can tell you, there was one really tense hour where i did feel the weight of the world on my shoulders. and so many people have done so much over two years. the uk team, internationally. and, yeah, this deal was absolutely in jeopardy. his efforts at the conference were praised by opposition parties. but they also warned there's a long way to go in. we have made some progress and we have to acknowledge that. but we also have to acknowledge that we failed in getting that target of 1.5, and we must keep that pressure on because it would be catastrophic for areas of the world and for our planet. so we've got more to do. so what happens now? well, by the end of next year countries should update their climate pledges — a faster pace than before. and they are now expected to do this more often. by 2024, a package of long—term financial aid for the poorest nations should be agreed. and then by 2030, to avoid the worst of global warming, carbon emissions should be halved. but we're still a long way from achieving that. so as things stand, the polar ice will melt faster than ever, raising sea levels and, together with heavier rain, threatening millions of people with flooding. the implications of failing to act soon have never been clearer. we've already warmed by 1.1 degree celsius since pre—industrial times. and the hope is that 1.5 will be the limit of the rise. but we're heading for at least 1.8, and that's only if every promise is kept. more realistically, we are on course for about 2.4 — a really dangerous level. the difference between 1.5 and 2.4 is really survival of millions and millions of people and species in the planet. this is what is particularly true for the islands. but according to camilla born, a government adviser at the heart of the talks, the worst outcomes can be averted. we have kept 1.5 alive, but on the basis of delivering on those commitments, and that will be our next task. first as the presidency but for all the countries. and it's on us to make sure that this is real in action. the key to that is what's happening far beyond the conference. the spectacular fall in the price of renewable forms of energy. they now make good business sense, whatever gets agreed in talks about climate change. the arguments here over the past fortnight were about words on a page, and in the end they may or may not prove important. what matters more is the signal sent by this gathering and others to come to businesses, investors, banks — all of us — that with the right pace and scale of change, it should still be possible to get the world onto a safer course. david shukman, bbc news, in glasgow. we can now speak to robjackson, who's a climate scientist at stanford university and chair of the global carbon project. he has been guiding us through much of the past two weeks. david there was talking about the importance of words on a page and those words did shift at the very last minute. the idea of phasing down on coal, i don't know what it means, do you? i don't know what it means, do ou? . , . you? i regret that switch. phased down _ you? i regret that switch. phased down is _ you? i regret that switch. | phased down is ambiguous you? i regret that switch. - phased down is ambiguous and lacks a schedule.

that it would all be about: not about other fossil fuels which would give at least a balance. they have a point, don't they? i think they do and they have different levels of responsibility in this discussion as well. china, they burn half of the: the world and the colliers has tripled. they are no longer a developing nation the way india is and they are responsible for about one seventh of pollution in the atmosphere every day. but i have trouble criticising india very much. india has 200 million people living in energy poverty without electricity. they are being chastised for not burning coal when countries like here in the us and europe are filled the atmosphere with coal pollution so i don't think thatis coal pollution so i don't think that is fair.— that is fair. let me

austria for anyone over the age of twelve who hasn't been fully vaccinated against covid—19. two million people — who are yet to receive two doses — have been told to stay at home, except for work and essential shopping. the country has one of the highest infection rates in europe. courtney bembridge reports. there was a last—minute rush at vaccination centres in upper austria, on the eve of new restrictions for those not yet protected. unvaccinated austrians were already barred from visiting restaurants, hairdressers and cinemas, but they're now told to stay home except for work and food shopping. it'll be policed using spot checks with hefty fines for those caught breaking the rules. austria has one of the lowest vaccination rates in western europe — around 64% of the population is fully vaccinated, which leaves 2 million people yet to get two doses. and the country has one of the highest infection rates in europe — more than 800 cases per 100,000 people. the icus are starting to fill up. it's already projected that within two weeks we will have reached the limit, and we know that the cases we see now will be those that fill up the icus in two weeks, so there's need for some measure right now. but not everyone agrees. crowds gathered over the weekend in salzburg and vienna to make their opposition clear. translation: i'm here today because i want to fight - for my

cordon was immediately set up. local roads were also closed. then, confirmation that a counter—terrorism investigation had been launched. unfortunately, i can confirm that one person has died and another has been taken to hospital, where he is being treated for his injuries — which, thankfully, are not life—threatening. so far, we understand that the car involved was a taxi, which pulled up at the hospital shortly before the explosion occurred. and while the cordon remains in place, patients have been told to stay away. we're reviewing our patient activity for the next 24—48 hours and patients should wait to be contacted for updates about any planned appointments. this has been a fast—moving investigation. just hours after the news conference, it emerged that police were at this residential street in the kensington area, and also here, just one mile from the liverpool women's hospital. counter—terrorism detectives say they're keeping an open mind about the cause of the explosion. tonight, people are being told to remain calm but vigilant. fiona trott, bbc news, liverpool. stay with us on bbc news, still to come: the us urges cuba to allow peaceful protests as

spraining her back. 0ur royal correspondent nicholas witchell reports. band plays. it was the customary cenotaph commemoration after the limitations last year caused by the pandemic. there was, though, one notable absentee — the queen did not, as had been expected, take her place on a balcony overlooking the cenotaph. according to buckingham palace, she had sprained her back. she continues to rest at windsor. the prince of wales led other senior members of the royal family to their places at the cenotaph in readiness for the two—minute silence observed in whitehall and at ceremonies around the country. big ben chimes the hour. silence. buglers play last post. after the two—minute silence and the sounding of the last post in whitehall by royal marine buglers, the prince of wales placed the queen's wreath of red poppies against the cenotaph's northern face in tribute to those from britain and the commonwealth who lost their lives in the world wars and more recent conflicts. then, after the official wreath—laying, it was the return of the veterans' march—past. the former servicemen and women, denied the chance to be at the cenotaph last year, paying their own tributes to former colleagues. the head of state had been absent — a matter of great regret, we are told, to her and to those who were on parade. nicholas witchell, bbc news. and that is bbc news and a reminder, if you go to our website you can get more on all of our stories. goodbye for now. hello. we've had some drizzle and patchy light rain across parts of east anglia and south east england this afternoon but the main rain band is pushing into the north and west of scotland. we can see it here on the earlier satellite picture, this bank of cloud, and it will continue on its journey south and eastwards through this evening and overnight. some heavy and persistent rain also pushing into parts of northern ireland. it will be weakening as it moves its way south and eastward but we could see some patchy rain into the far north of england by dawn. further south, there will be some drizzle, particularly for western and eastern coasts and also over hills. there could be a few clearer slots across southern england, allowing temperatures to drop to 5 or 6 celsius. for most, it is a mild night with the lows between 7 and 10 celsius, and that is the theme, really, for the week ahead. staying mild both by day and by night and most of the rain will be in the north and west of scotland. so into monday, we've still got this front lingering, but it's running into an area of high pressure, so it's weakening all the while. still a lot of cloud on it, still some patchy rain through monday morning across parts of southern scotland, initially, into northern england, maybe parts of wales, the far south—west of england. behind it, something much brighter with some sunshine across a large swathe of scotland and northern ireland, but ahead of it, still a lot of cloud for much of england and wales with highs of 11—13 celsius. then through monday evening and overnight, the cloud base likely to lower across much of england and wales, bringing some patchy drizzle but more persistent rain will be starting to approach the north and the west of scotland and the winds will be strengthening as well — you can see the isobars much closer together here — so some wetter, windier weather through tuesday across northern ireland and northern and western scotland. that will tend to weaken as the day wears on but some of that rain heavy and persistent. across england and wales, it should be mainly a dry day. maybe a few bright or sunny spells, but certainly a lot of cloud and highs again on tuesday typically 10—13 celsius. as we look a little bit further ahead, well, it looks like that frontal system that we see on tuesday will be sliding its way across the uk, but once again running into high pressure, so most of the rain will tend to fizzle out and behind it, what we start to see is some slightly cooler air digging in, so the chance of some showers across northern and western scotland on wednesday and they could well be wintry over the highest ground. but essentially, for much of the week ahead, it's looking mostly dry, if rather cloudy, mild by day and night, and much of the rain across the north and west of scotland. this is bbc news, the headlines: borisjohnson's
