unfortunately the corporations did not hear that. nevada has only been estate for a 160 years, it has been inhabited by the relatives of these people long before. they travel here every year to

of the biggest lithium deposits in the world. this is stacker pass and in march, work began to get it out of the ground. this mine is different, many of its supporters claim to be environmentalists,

uk, it is going to be an exceptionally warm weekend for october — that warm air pushing up from the south around this area of high pressure — but colder air digging down from the north and along the battleground between those two air masses, an active and slow—moving weather front which is going to bring heavy and persistent rain of parts of scotland. we have this met office amber warning — the potential that some places could see close to 180mm of rain, especially up over higher ground. certainly enough rain across the warning area to give some issues with flooding and travel disruption. and as you can see, a wet start to saturday across many parts of scotland and that band of rain very slow moving through the day. whereas for northern ireland, western parts of england and wales, a bit of a murky start. that should tend to lift and clear to give some spells of sunshine. certainly, central and eastern parts of england seeing some spells of hazy sunshine through the day. but all the while, the rain continues across those central and some northern parts of scotland, where it will feel decidedly chilly — just nine degrees in aberdeen. compare that with 2a or 25 degrees across parts of south east england. now, during saturday night, the rain continues. i think the heaviest rain will tend to pull northwards across scotland. something a little bit drier developing for some of those central and southern parts. further south, some clear spells. there'll be some mist and fog patches, too. a mild night for many but quite cold in the far north of scotland, particularly shetland, just to the north of this weather front. as we head into sunday, this front will still be plaguing some northern parts of the uk but the heaviest rain this time will be across the far north of scotland and into orkney. further south, just that little bit drier. and for northern ireland, england and wales, any early mist and fog should tend to clear. it could stay a bit murky for some coasts but we will see some spells of sunshine. not quite as warm on sunday — still up to around 23 degrees, 12 for stornoway and for aberdeen. now, the new week starts on a warm note, particularly down to the south, but as we head through the middle part of the week, this active weather front is set to push southwards and that will introduce north—westerly winds and something more typical, really, for this time of year. so, temperatures by the end of the coming week back down closer to where we'd expect them to be at this time of year. live from washington. this is bbc news. the un is
