earlier, i spoke to dr matt patterson, who's a postdoctoral research assistant in atmospheric physics at the university of oxford and has been following the winter heatwave. he said this is not a common occurance. it's really quite unusual to see a heatwave of this magnitude in the winter. as you said, we've seen temperatures of 38 degrees in some andes towns when we would expect to see temperatures of 10—15 degrees at this time of year. so really quite unprecedented. in terms of the magnitude, 20 degrees more than average, that's comparable with summer heatwaves that we've seen in the southern united states, southern europe and china this year. can you explain in basic terms what exactly is causing this heatwave in winter? certainly. it's a high pressure system just to the east of the andes, which is basically dragging warm air down from the tropics and bringing that heat down towards chile and argentina. that high pressure is also compressing the air, much like when you pump up a bike tyre, the pump heats up, and there's been a lack of cloud cover, and that means the sun is able to beat down and really warm up the land surface throughout the day. let's bring back our panel. the fact we have seen bruising heatwaves, whether across the us, flooding in vermont. philip, we will talk to you about europe as well. in the us, do you have a sense that the extreme weather we have experienced is moving the needle at all? the conversation when discussing climate change? it's unavoidable. climate change isn't coming any more, it is here. i am in_ isn't coming any more, it is here. i am in new— isn't coming any more, it is here. i am in new england, where i grew up is right— am in new england, where i grew up is right undervermont am in new england, where i grew up is right under vermont and all the rain out _ is right under vermont and all the rain out there destroyed forms that are not— rain out there destroyed forms that are not going to recover for years. millions _ are not going to recover for years. millions and — are not going to recover for years. millions and millions of dollars of damage. — millions and millions of dollars of damage, roads gone and all of that. tornadoes _ damage, roads gone and all of that. tornadoes where there have never been _ tornadoes where there have never been tornadoes. a report today that in the _ been tornadoes. a report today that in the winter in new england has already— in the winter in new england has already lost one month of snow cover because _ already lost one month of snow cover because of— already lost one month of snow cover because of the changed temperature. ithink— because of the changed temperature. i think everyone has to admit now that it _ i think everyone has to admit now that it is _ i think everyone has to admit now that it is here. the question is, are way— that it is here. the question is, are way too— that it is here. the question is, are way too late and how quickly can we do _ are way too late and how quickly can we do something about it since we have iett— we do something about it since we have left so much time to go by by having _ have left so much time to go by by having political fights about something that isjust having political fights about something that is just a fact having political fights about something that isjust a fact in science — something that is 'ust a fact in science. ~ ., something that is 'ust a fact in science. ~ . ., science. what about here in the uk?

an interesting time. we have had i an interesting time. we have had these very extreme heat waves in southern europe. the uk itself has had a pretty miserable summer, to be fair. but in this week where we are getting these record—breaking temperatures. reports the other day about sea temperatures being at a record high. we have this debate starting in the uk about whether all the green targets that have been set for net—zero and so on should actually be pursued. this is the week that the prime minister went up to aberdeen in scotland to announce 100 new licences for the extraction of oil and gas from the north sea, and then hejets of oil and gas from the north sea, and then he jets off to california for his summer holidays sending a couple of pretty contrary signals. there is a hint from the conservative party that there might be votes in taking a sceptical stance on green measures. this really does contrast with these very scary stories from around the world. about what is happening right now. and what we need from our politicians here in the uk, as elsewhere, is real leadership on this in terms of assessing what the prospects are, thinking about mitigation measures, but also assuring people that mitigation measures will not hurt the poorest in our society, and that is the fear that many have in the uk, that they will bear the brunt of this when they don't have the resources to deal with it themselves.- they don't have the resources to deal with it themselves. dealwith it themselves. philip, if there is the _ dealwith it themselves. philip, if there is the political, _ dealwith it themselves. philip, if there is the political, is _ dealwith it themselves. philip, if there is the political, is there - dealwith it themselves. philip, if there is the political, is there a l there is the political, is there a support among the public? it is important to differentiate there. there is support in principle, but when you get down and when you change your habits and would you accept, support tends to fade away. we had this by—election in boris johnson's old seat which seemed to turn on the ultra low emission zone in that part of london, and a lot of politicians have read into that that when confronted with real—world policies voters get cold feet. that was just one example and it was more about clean air than climate change, but what the message from that should be to the politicians, "0k, should be to the politicians, "ok, you have got to think about these mitigating measures, but you have to be open about the coasts of them, you have to explain the coasts of them and you have to make sure that people know they can carry those coasts, otherwise we will start to lose this debate, which would be disastrous." lose this debate, which would be disastrous "— disastrous." very interesting perspectives _ disastrous." very interesting perspectives there _ disastrous." very interesting perspectives there from - disastrous.

" very interesting - perspectives there from both of you. we are going to come back to you and just a little bit to talk some more. it's no secret that mark zuckerberg and elon musk aren't the best of friends — with the two competing for social media dominance. it's now been a month since mark zuckerberg's meta launched threads — a direct rival to x, the app formerly known as twitter. it started off well, drawing in more than 100 million sign—ups within days. but since then, mr zuckerberg admitted the platform had lost more than half of its users by the end ofjuly. and then there's the potential physical matchup that might be on the cards in the near future. both tech bosses have claimed they want to fight each other in a cage match. no fight has been confirmed yet, but this video is of the meta boss mark zuckerberg sparring in a gym. he says he is ready to fight today — but when asked if he thinks elon musk will sign off on a date — he said "he isn't holding his breath" will guyatt is a tech journalist and former instagram employee. are we actually going to see a physical cage match between these two men? iiii physical cage match between these two men? ii i physical cage match between these two men? ., , ., physical cage match between these two men? ., i. ., physical cage match between these two men? ., . , . physical cage match between these two men? ., ., , ., ., physical cage match between these two men? ., ., ., ., two men? if i told you a year and a bit auo two men? if i told you a year and a bit ago that — two men? if i told you a year and a bit ago that elon _ two men? if i told you a year and a bit ago that elon musk— two men? if i told you a year and a bit ago that elon musk was - two men? if i told you a year and a bit ago that elon musk was going l two men? if i told you a year and a | bit ago that elon musk was going to buy twitter, i would have laughed if you told me that was happening. i'm beginning to wonder what is real and what is not real. i don't think the two of them will ever actually meet up two of them will ever actually meet up in the cage, i think the reality is mark zuckerberg is a far fitter man than elon musk, he is actually ready for a fight and knowing what i know mark zuckerberg, he will train to the degree to make this a success. it is part of the elon musk circus. he is the ultimate showman. that is one thing i cannot take away from him. he might be the world's richest man but he is probably the world's greatest showman as well, to continually generate press and coverage for what he has over two at twitter, now ex—. taste coverage for what he has over two at twitter, now ex-._ twitter, now ex-. we mention that there were — twitter, now ex-. we mention that there were more _ twitter, now ex-. we mention that there were more than _ twitter, now ex-. we mention that there were more than 100 -

app is waning. it is really tricky because it is clear that it - app is waning. it is really tricky i because it is clear that it launched with a huge bang and even as mark zuckerberg has admitted a number of those people have not come back on a daily basis, the reality is that if you look at a site like tiktok or snapchat, they took at least three months to get to the hundred million mark. so perhaps there is more for threads to do to become an app that more of us are using more commonly, but some search functions in there, some of the improvements that users are asking for will probably bring more people back. and nothing will take away the fact that within two or three days it got to 100 million sign up users. an incredible success for any kind of platform. what happens in these situations is we all focus on meta and hyperfocus on exactly what it is doing at that particular moment. but any other service, getting to 50 million in the first month would be deemed a huge success. the first month would be deemed a huge success-— huge success. coming back to twitter, it _ huge success. coming back to twitter, it has _ huge success. coming back to twitter, it has continued -

on a couple of brexit related stories. not my favourite subject but we have to talk about these because they are really quite important. a couple of announcements that the government slipped out just as the recess of parliament vote on its holidays. one was about conformity assessment. this is actually really important. it is the mark you get on a product that says that product is safe to use. the uk said coming out of the eu they are going to have their own system, they're going to stop using the eu system and we are going to invent our own. businesses that this was crazy because we would have to test the products twice, once for the eu market and one for the uk market. "no, no, no, we're going to persist with this." and so the story rolled on, and then suddenly the uk government turns around and says after all they have had second thoughts and they are going to continue to recognise the eu mark after all. so much for divergence, so much for setting the standards in the uk. effectively, the uk will become a rotator from the uk. effectively, the uk will become a rotatorfrom brussels the uk. effectively, the uk will become a rotator from brussels on these standards with no influence over them. the second one is about control of the borders. the uk has still

checks despite the fact that uk products going the other way have to be checked because they cross the eu border. a sort of unilateral disarmament which is probably illegal under wta terms. the uk government is just that they are postponing yet again the implementation of that system. so you have these two decisions sneaked out that he quite media time, under the radar screen, withjust a out

injust a moment. this is what's going on right now. we've got quite a potent area of low pressure swirling across northern europe. that is bringing some very heavy rain and some gales, but that is going to get close enough to shetland to strengthen the winds here. the winds starting to pick up here actually as we go through the night. elsewhere, the winds will be lighter. we'll see some clear spells, the odd shower and this zone of cloud rolling in from the west affecting parts of wales and south—west england. some bits and pieces of rain, some mist and murk by morning, turning a little

we do have the warmth, and indeed some humidity, well, it won't last all that long because by friday we see this cold front pushing its way eastwards. outbreaks of rain with that, and behind it, we change the wind direction, the winds coming back in off the atlantic. so it will start to feel cooler again as we head into the weekend, and there will be some showers or longer spells of rain. at
