of archibishop desmond tutu — a further memorial service is to be held in cape town today. more unaltered a's stories coming out of the top of the hour. now on bbc news, your world: life at 50 degrees centigrade. in episode three, we see how lives have been dramatically altered in iraq and the gulf 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 hot 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. it's hin! i think in my line of work, when i'm doing a lot of content creation, i can see when the heat does affect me. when you do have the best light on a day to be able to film, it is absolutely too hot to do it outside. so, since this is a compilation episode, i'm going to make sure i bring coffee to everyone because we don't have to go have coffee. the hours between 11:00 in the morning and 4:00 in the afternoon are no—go times of being outdoors. the heat impacts your life in ways that you don't necessarily anticipate. and a day like today, it makes things that are supposed to be a minute long and hour long. yes. yeah, let's sit down, my love. do you want the ac? one of the things that i was not anticipating when i did finally have children was now i had this tiny little being that needed to be protected from the sun. all right, let's get going. and because i had rear—facing car seats, the ac unit actually never touched his car seat, so we would turn the car on 30 minutes prior to an outing, put the ice packs into his car seat to cool it down before i could place him in it, and we had a tube that would extend from the front ac into the backjust to make sure that we could get him enough air conditioning in a rear—facing car seat. and that is the reality for all parents here. push the door! push, push, push. do you want to try the mango with strawberry? i would spend my entire life living in kuwait, but i did have a bit of time when i got to live in the states and i go out on my bike, and go outside and make tree houses, and i guess i did want that for my children. i think there is a common misconception that you are able to split your time between different countries if you are kuwaiti. that has never been my reality. that the assumption you are just able to leave is not possible for everybody. this is the hottest i have ever seen kuwait. it is getting to the point where it is unbearable and i think everything about living here is hostile sometimes. you like swimming inside or outside more? inside, why do you like inside? do your feet hurt when you walk on the grass outside? yeah. it concerns me that the only life that my children have known has been in scorching heat. they want to be kids and go to the playground. and they will beg to go all day, and then we will finally break and take them, and it will be so unbearable that they will be begging to go back home. the absolute best invention in the world. the only way to stop it. like, you can't even feel it now. there's absolutely no way to survive here without ac and i think that what's really disturbing about that is that you're cooling your little section but you're heating up outside and so we are in this awful, awful cycle of trying to cool 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 bathroom, 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 probably 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. red hello, there. today we have seen a band _ red hello, there. today we have seen a band of— red hello, there. today we have seen a band of rain— red hello, there. today we have seen a band of rain moving north—eastwards across the uk and a band of rain moving north-eastwards across the uk and in the new year — north-eastwards across the uk and in the new year still _ north-eastwards across the uk and in the new year still unsettled, -
