the stunning cosmic first that could unlock the mysteries of the universe. >> pressure is building tonight in eastern ukraine. as officials warning of a possible of returning to war. signs that a ceasefire has essentially collapsed. accuse article of russians sending troops over the border. rory clalrorrory challenge repo. >> an allegation that nato has backed up with its own observations. >> crosacross the last two dayse have seen the same thing that osce is reporting. we have seen columns of russian equipment, primarily russian tanks, artillery, combat systems and troops entering into ukraine. we do not have a good picture of how many. we agree that there are multiple columns that we have seen. >> russia's position is that to insist it has no military role in the conflict so the defense ministry has dismissed general breedlove's comments. a comment for domestic ears more than foreign ones. russians have no desire to see brothers fighting and dying in ukraine. >> pretending there are no russian soldiers, that is what russia is going to be doing, going to deny. >> are with fighting intensifying in recent days, the ceasefire agreed in minsk appears to be dead. russian army is preparing for increase beining violence. >> how could we react to their acts, i see it as my aim to be ready to fight. >> that's rory challenge. an immediate meeting of the security council over this conflict. u.s. ambassador samantha power says: >> russia's done nothing to restore ukrainian government control. russia has continued to flout ukrainian air space with its helicopters and uavs. it continues to send so-called humanitarian convoys, something it will not allowing to be searched. >> they do not reflect the situation on the ground. president obama in myanmar tonight the second leg of his asian trip. he's there to attend the eastbound asia summit on -- the east asia summit. relations have been strained as the country's transition from military rule to democracy. early reforms have stalled and even reversed course. gop leaders have condemned a new climate deal with china. today lawmakers return to capitol hill where a domestic agreement is taking shape. libby casey has the story. libby. >> the agreement between president obama and chinese leader xi jinping. congress returned to a long break on the campaign trail, to an sphere like the first day of school. in the lame duck session there's already resistance from the gop senate majority on president obama's climate agreement with china. >> i was distressed with the deal that he has apparently reached with the chinese on his current trip which as i read the agreement requires the chinese to do nothing at all for 16 years while these carbon emission regulations are creating havoc in my state and other states. >> reporter: the agreement between the u.s. and china has two of the world's largest carbon emitter to cap, by 2025, china agreed to peak its admissions by 2030. speaker of the house john boehner wasted no time to blast the obama administration. in a statement he said, this announcement is yet another sign that the president intends to double down on his job crushing policies no matter how devastating the impact for america's heart land and the country as a whole and it is the latest example of the president's cepresident's crusa. president obama calls the agreement historic. >> it will create jobs, it will strengthen our energy security and will put both of our nations on the path to a low carbon economy. this is a major milestone in the u.s.-china relationship. >> reporter: but the deal is not likely to do anything for president's respect with republicans in congress, many who campaigned against tougher environmental regulations. those regulations will be put to the test in the new congress, john. the man who hopes at a chair the senate environment committee is john inhaw. he wrote a book called climate change the greatest hoax. john. >> tomorrow house could vote on this bill, right? >> that is true. this is a bill crafted by bill cassidy. he is in the house now but aspires to a promotes to the senate. he is in a tight race with senator mary landrieu of al louisiana. they go head to head in december. landrieu bill, will be a chance for her to show louisiana voters she's managing to get some headway on this pipeline project. whether or not they have enough votes for democrats to pass it though in the senate is a question mark. what she will go home with is a towestory that she was at leaste to get a vote. john. >> we'll see whether it affects the runoff. an associate professor at georgetown university, joins us from washington tonight. joanna, is this realistic for china to cap their carbon emissions by 2030? >> i think it's realistic but quite difficult. capping emissions by 2030 is going to require that china continue to scale up the use of nonfossil energy and to change its reliance on coal. it is going to take a lot of actions that china is also starting but step up in the coming years if it's going to peak its emissions in that time frame. >> but it shows that china is not cutting anything, just moving the date earlier and u.s. is the one that does all the cutting. what do you say? >> well, if you look at the projections for where china's emissions are and where they are going, china's emissions are going to continue to rise steadily for several decades. the earliest that many thought china's emissions would peak if they would stay on the path they are now would be maybe sometime after 2040 or 2050. so the fact you have the president of china standing up in front of the world and saying their emissions are going to peak by 2030 or earlier shows that china is taking this seriously and floon and plans te are in its current path. >> do you think it's ambitious? >> yes, but not just because of international pressure. the air conditions are putting a pressure on the government to reduce pollution, i think we see real reasons for you know domestic incentives for china to move away from coal and other more polluting sources of energy and towards cleaner sources of energy. >> how does the u.s. cut emissions by 20% by 2025? >> well, we've already seen several new announcements over the last year or so to regulate carbon emissions from power plants from transportation which are the largest sources of pollution in this country. and i think we already see the u.s. on a path of reducing its emissions. the announcement that president obama made yesterday is also aggressive for u.s. it's sending a methodic to the e chinese. not only from the climate perspective but the health perspective. >> what message does this send to other nations around the world? >> i think it sends a really important signal to the rest of the world. particularly in advance of the upcoming g-20 meetings and the climate change summit which is going to be taking place at the end of this year in lima peru. when you have the two largest emitters, china and the u.s., 20% of the global emission, when they announce targets of this ambition, you're going to see many of the major economies follow suit, which is exactly what you need to find a global solution to climate change. >> joanna lewis, thank you very much. now, the pentagon today called ugly and disturbing, video of the incident was taken not far from where a u.s. airship was docked. >> routine shore leave for sailors, making a port call in istanbul, turkey. showing the sailors being accosted by a group of angry men. shouting at them. from what they're shouting it's clear they're not happy americans are in their country. >> because we define you as murderers, as killers. we want you to get out of our land. we are -- >> the pentagon says to the sailors' credit, they managed to escape without escalating the situation. the pentagon said the situation was ugly and disturbing. the u.s. navy issued a statement that said quote, we have enjoyed a long relationship with turkey as nato allies. this incident will not diminish that strong relationship. turkey condemned the attack as a disrespectful act that it says was in no way tolerated. the officers are back on their ship and they are planning to return to their home base in rota, spain, tomorrow. the pentagon dismissed this incident as a one-off by some street thugs and istanbul remains a popular port of call. and the hospitality extended to the american soldiers is warm. >> jamie mcintire reporting. the european is space saigt successfullagentslanded a space. our science and technology editor jacob ward. jake. >> took an entire ten years to get no this comic which is about 300 million miles away. the complication of it didn't end by the arrival, you had at that point release the lander to land on the comet through an automated process that lasted seven hours. this is a ten year piece of technology, they had to cut loose and let it guide itself down the seven kilometers down to the surface of this incredible hostile object. not like a planet. first on so many levels. it's like the ultimate trick shows what esa pulled off here. >> what will scientists expect to learn over the next few months here jake? >> an opportunity to look at history up close in a way humans have not been able to do before. comets are fragments of the earliest days of our solar system, from deep deep space, and made up of stuff that we don't have here on earth. organic molecules that form the basis of water and humidity, so this lander is going to be taking measurements with surfaces tension, what it's made of what its temperature is and as it slowly comes apart between now andists approach to the sun which will happen between now and december 2015, its surface will become more and more unstable. these measurements will come about prior to the comet's burning to death. >> what can you tell us about it? >> absolutely right, the difficulty here is zero g object, there is no inherent gravity to this thing. once you let the lander go, it has to very gently come in contact with the comet in a way that doesn't cause it to bounce back off. that was the scientists' worry. there are things that adhere it to the side of the comet, there are drills and harpoons, it fired into the rock to hold it there. the drills seem to have caught. they don't know this but they think so but they do know the harpoons did not fire. it is not tethered to the way they think it should be. a thing ripping on at 30,000 miles an hour with a bug hanging to it for dear life, it's a delicate operation. we don't know if it's securely attached. scientists are hopeful. >> are we going to see more of these? >> it is interesting to see the long term planning that goes into these things. nasa and these different agencies have missions planned out until 2034. you have to look incredibly into the future to plan these things out. launched in 2004 and just getting there now, that is a blip on the radar of the universe. the idea we reached our hand out ten years ago and it is just arriving, we are looking at decades of this kind of achievement as we get further out beyond the moon and our close neighbors and out into these extraordinary objects an extraordinary distance from earth. >> jake ward, in san francisco. thank you. coming up the final breakup of the virgin galactic plane, the pilot's description of how he survived. and, why the numbers are rising. >> a grand jury is still hearing testimony in the police shooting of an unarmed teenager in suburban st. louis. michael brown's death led to weeks of violent protests. we are hearing the number of people killed by police officers are going up. jonathan betz has the story. >> john, anger between the public and the officers they are supposed to be protecting. >> ahead of a grand jury decision that could set off more protests and more violence. >> we are preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. >> reporter: anger at police extends beyond suburban st. louis. from new york city to new mexico, officers accused of using excessive, off lethal force. >> every police officer out there is not behaving this way. however there are many, many circumstances where police officers see young men of color and unfortunately treat them in a way that's highly disrespectful. >> reporter: fbi numbers confirm what many activates have warned. the number of officer involved shootings has been ricing. 4 -- rising. is killings that were declared justifiable. it's the most in nearly two decades. just two weeks ago, albuquerque new mexico agreed to overhaul its police department after officers killed 32 people in four years. >> it is a road map to rebuilding the trust between the community and the police. >> seattle having federal monitors watching their police departments. meanwhile ferguson leaders promise changes urge peace while activates demand answers. not all police officers report shootings. we don't know exactly how many people are killed by officers every year. john. >> all right jonathan, thanks. in switzerland today michael brown's parents addressed a u.n. committee on torture. the committee is considering the possibility that brown's killing meets the standard for torture. severe standard based by some sort of discrimination. >> this trip is very important for the family. making a powerful step towards justice. we need your help. that's why we're here. >> in missouri, a grand jury is expected to decide soon on whether to indict officer darren wilson in brown's death. dante berry is the director of million hoodies for justice. one of the key people during the aftermath of michael brown deaths. when you hear the shootings going up in this country, what is your reaction? >> every 28 hours a black person is killed by a security officer, police officer or vigilante. in response to the murder of trayvon martin in 2012. after the killing of mike brown you started to also see a lot of brown folks wanted to be figured into that, that study. actually becomes even less, every 16 hours. a black and brown person can be found. >> what does that mean? what do those numbers mean? >> that means that someone in this country, every 28 hours, a black or brown person is extra judicially killed by a police officer. so this is not just a moment what we're seeing in ferguson. this is something that's systemic. and when we look at police officers and that formation of police since even slavery, police were created, the badge was created in order to patrol and keep slaves in the patrol. so this hasn't been just a ferguson issue. >> let me push back a second so i can hear people who are watching tonight, some people saying well maybe those people were doing things they shouldn't have been doing. >> see, this is like the respectability topic, see? in every regard in reaction to having over a thousand police officers coming up in the coming weeks for this nonindictment, that's the idea that people are going to be criminal, right? there's a misconception that -- >> you're talking about ferguson now. >> yeah. >> so the police department in ferguson is going to put how many police officers on the ground? >> over a thousand. >> over a thousand on the anticipation of a possibility of violence. >> right. >> some might say that might help protect violence and you say? >> i say it actually agitates, right? ever since they won the ferguson community has said, constantly, get out of our town. you're disrupting our way of life. in every respect they've been outside agitators. they have come up to unarmed civilians with loaded weapons, tear gas, rubber bullets. >> reporters on the end of that too. >> a lot of use of excessive force, right? so this has not been about just response to what's going to happen but this is just overexplicit racism that's happening in our system. >> there were buildings burned down, fires set, people hurt. what do you do in a situation like this? how do you handle it? >> community policing. i am surprised to see them weal iactually in ferguson able to police themselves. you see community police officers blocking off mike brown's area where he was actually killed. people coming up and blocking people off if they didn't know them. if you had to go to ferguson, you had to know who they were, they were doing community policing on their own. >> once it gets out of hand and people start burning buildings you know, it's too late for that businessman who had his building burned down. i mean i get that you want community policing but doesn't it have to go deeper than that? doesn't it have to go to the way the police department handles its business and the number of african americans on the police force and the way the police force has a relationship with the community? >> that's the biggest part right? the fact that you have to say that going to burning down a building is actually more value than a black person being dead for four hours, right? so that's the bigger issue is that they are to demonstrate their anger -- >> okay so they killed a young black man so it's time for us to burn down a building. >> no, it's not saying that but going on the respectability politics that they can demonstrate anger and frustration in any way than they are more worried about preserving property. >> connect the dots to trayvon martin. hue does this relate to the case you were so involved in? >> it doesn't, right? trayvon martin wasn't killed by a police officer. he was killed by a self appointed vigilante, a white-appearing latino. i would say in every regard in the case of trayvon martin we have seen an evolution of violence, million hoodies, in response to the killing of trayvon martin, ferguson, the resistance in ferguson would have been possible. you also see black twitter being used in an effort to build independent online power of really lifting up the forces of marginalized black folks who weren't able to communicate the things they cared about and you see that now of actually black folks in ferguson lifting up and telling their own stories and waiting for the media to catch up with them. since trayvon martin we've seen an evolution and a reemergence of black came. activism. >> we need to have you back, that deserves more analysis. dante, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> coming up. banks slapped with big fines for manipulating markets. >> plus. >> this is al jazeera america. i'm john siegenthaler. and coming up, trying to rig markets on a global scale. why some of the world's biggest banks were fined billions. live from oakland, california, nurses strikes. some say we're still not ready for ebola. virgin galactic. shedding light on the disaster and one pilot's stunning survival. six of the world's biggest banks are paying more than $4 billion in fines for trying to rig the game. jpmorgan chase, bank of america and citigroup are among them. the fines follow a year long investigation by regulators, in britain the united states and elsewhere. american and british authorities say criminal charges are possible. most people don't trade in the currency market but professionals who do have a big impact on what things cost when you travel abroad. "real money"'s marry snow explains. >> whether it's dollars, euros or yen. on any given day, trading on foreign exchange markets averages $5.3 trillion approximately that's a little more than the gross domestic product of japan. experts say it's highly unregulated. currencies are traded electronically around the world at dizzying speesdz. 40% is done in the u.c, followed by the u.s., singapore, hong con and japan. there is pause for 60 seconds at 4:00 p.m. london time called the fix. it is a way to set a benchmark since prices fluctuate second by second and highly sensitive to rumors. the pause sets the value of the currency per day. but it's around the time of the fix that 4x traders are accused of market manipulation. the heart of a $4.3 billion fine against six major banks. mary snowy, al jazeera. >> tara snow, joins us. >> last time i was with you, we were discussing the libor scandal. this time they are accused of rigging the currency benchmark. these benchmarks are set on a daily basis. all other current is based on where that is set. >> the question is whether those were a few outliers or are the banks behind these and especially some of the biggest banks in the world. what do we know about it? >> well i'm a believer in the old adage where there's smoke there's fire. and so this is a pattern of behavior, we go back, if we take it back to the financial crisis we remember there was so much impro might priet during the financial crisis and what is during this, particular crime went on while these same banks were under investigation for the liberia bolibor rigging. they were so brazen to commit another crime knowing their banks were under investigation for another crime. >> how significant is it that they are settling? what are they admitting? >> there are a number of suits and settlements going on all over the world, by the way. so here in the united states, we have the cftc which has settled with these banks for as was mentioned earlier 4.3 billion or i guess less if you subtract their fines. but what is happening here with these suits is that what we're seeing is that they are basically and i'm trying to break this down in more laymen's terms because they are complex. you don't see the public outrage because it is a complex matter. there are other investigations going on in addition to the cftc investigation, in addition to the fines that came down, the justice department run by eric holder our attorney general is looking into criminal fines for this. the problem here, the challenge is because people don't understand, we don't see the public outcry as i said earlier. >> they don't trade foreign currency, right? >> but your pension funds -- >> are tied to it. >> that's how it hits average americans. this is problem. this is what i want to drill home, this is issue. what people don't understand, a lot of people are apathetic because they say no criminal charges have been filed, that's where people are upset. why aren't we seeing criminal charges? but public outcry is often what drives these criminal charges. in politics the squeaky wheel gets the oil. what you see happening a lot, an old saying in the south is, a closed mouth doesn't get fed. when you are not pushing and aggressively, the public suspect out there saying we need to -- the getting to a buoyant where we see the government crack down more is unlikely. >> how concerned is wall street about that? >> well wall street basically to use a lighter term, is not a big fan of attorney general eric holder. it's safe to say. to your point earlier you asked me what was going on with this and the pattern here. one of the things though that is good that we see the positive is that this is one of many basically investigations. so that's a good thing because we haven't seen this kind of activity against the banks in a very long time. they basically were getting away with running the tables on the american public for a very long time. and now we're seeing all these investigations. so that's a positive sign. but without pushing public pressure pushing we may not see what we really want to see and that's some criminal charges brought. >> we'll be watching. tara, it's good to have you on the program. thank you. the ebola death toll continues to rise, 5,168 have died, in sierra leone, liberia and mali. the pentagon announced it is cutting deployment to west africa from 4,000 to 3,000 and more than 2,000 are already there building treatment facilities. in california 18,000 nurses walked off the job today to demand more protection against ebola. there are growing concerning that medical centers are not prepared to handle the viergs. the virus. melissa, what are these nurses look for? >> john, two main thems, more t. to be fair, we're standing in front of cier kaiser permanentee time period when the patient checks in and they realize he has ebola. they realize there is not enough training in that department. they really need protective gear. today is national day to bring attention to the ebola issue is really a launching point for a lot of other grievances. here is what the executive director of national nurses united say. >> they call it a political agenda. a political agenda in trying to protect themselves and provide safe patient care, that is such an insult to the nurses, what it does is expose the hospitals and their greed motive. , they're not care centers, they're profit centers and nurses everywhere know it. >> so you can see that the nurses have a lot of other grievances and what they say is a problem here at kaiser permanente and other hospitals across the country is nurses feel understaffed. they need a lot more nurses hired they feel they're overstretched, it's bad for them and it's bad for the patients, john. >> melissa, what else is the hospital saying in response? >> that's an excellent point because there's always another side to the story. in this particular instance where we're standing kaiser permanente i think it's important to emphasize that the nurses unit actually is in labor negotiations with kaiser permanente so they've got a little more beef than just the ebola issue. having said that every single hospital across the country is different. that means that each hospital's management has to make a calculus how much resource and funds they want to allocate to ebola poop lot of hospitals especially the for profit hospitals will make a calculus that they won't spend too much money for ebola preparedness and that is something that the nurses have a major problem with. john. >> all right melissa thank you very much. there are new details about the virgin galactic plane crash and the pilot how lucky he is to be alive. lisa stark has more. >> the pilot that survived, peter sebold, said he was still in the plane, in his seat, 50,000 feet. as he was descending at some point he was able to regain consciousness, he unbuckled his seat the bell and his parachute automatically deployed, he did suffer injuries and was hospitalized for a time. his co-pilot michael asbury of course did not survive. the ntsb has wrapped up its investigation in the mojave desert. the pieces of the craft are in a secure place to be examined. they will be brought to the ntsb lab ande and they will review te video footage from the ground and from the air. other teams continue to look at all the data, what was happening with the airplane system, as well as the aerodynamic forces on the plane. what happened in a report could be a year away. john. >> it is no minor miracle that sebold survived. we turn to our science and technology editor jacob ward. jake. >> it is a small exclusive club of very, very lucky pee people o have survived supersonic disintegration. peters sebold survived temperatures at 50,000 feet, and he was doing about 660 miles per hour at the time, mach 1. the president of this club and it's not really a club i'm just kidding but i mean it's an amazing group of people who have survived this kind of thing. the person who was luckiest in doing this was a test pilot in 1966 named bill weaver who survived a break up of a sr 71 blackbird spy plane. it came apart at mach 3.48, the plane disintegrated around him. he has no memory how he got out of the plane or what happened. it is similar to what sebold is telling investigators. he came to drifting towards earth. his co-pilot as is true in the virgin galactic crash, didn't survive. it is a miracle that you would fly out of this vehicle and not be killed. he is lucky to be alive. >> what lessons do we take from this? >> that there needs to be some sort of system for ejecting out of this plane that is going to allow people to survive. at this case, the two pilots were not wearing pressurized suits. bill weaver credits his pressurized suit for protecting him. his seat belt was shredded. he had this inflated suit around him. i think it's obvious there is going to need to be a protective suit to protect people of the incredible hostility of being at that altitude and speed if this program is going to go forward in the future. >> all right jake, thank you. when it comes to handling campus sexual assault cases, high schools take a different case than colleges and universities. in the small town of heave hend, texas, a student said she was raped inside a band room. lori jane gliha has the story. >> inside that building is where you were raped? >> right. >> another student a football player and a fellow band member lured her into the band room where she says he raped her. >> it was strictly force the whole entire time. immediately after i was raped i went straight to the bathroom and i was scared. >> rachel's mom colleen chevalier, said the high school was unprepared and made splaiks fromistakeswhen she went to rep. >> there was semen on her shirt and her principal told her to talk to her attacker. >> lori jane gliha is with us. >> under title 9, they have to have a plan in place, they have to are prepared for sex assaultt cases like this. what we've found is school administrators are not prepared. the police have a higher beg youburdenof proof. schools have an obligation to is a student to make sure they have a safe learning environment. in the case we profiled tonight, they did not do their own investigation. they handed it off to their they determined that the sex was consense walsensual even thoughs reported as an assault. then the school went and punished the girl who reported the assault. you won't believe how they punished her. it came across as retaliation and we'll tell you how the school ended up being punished for the action they took against the girl. >> the universities and the problems they have there what about secondary schools how big a problem is sexual assault? >> well john, about one in five girls at the high school level will be sexually assaulted. there were about 4200 sexual assaults that were reported on high school campuses. according to the latest year the stats are available. this is something that's not talked about a lot. it is underreported and unfortunately schools at the secondary level are actually ten years behind where colleges and universities are. and currently there are 23 school districts on the secondary level that are under investigation right now for mishandling the cases like the one we'll be reporting on tonight. >> her report, sex crimes one year later, at the top of the hour, 9:00 p.m. eastern, 6:00 p.m. pacific. >> qatar, will see whether it will handle the 2020 world cup. accusations of the soccer's governing organization will be revealed tomorrow. the source says several other countries including russia will also face criticism. this network is funded by the government of qatar. coming up next, google street view under the sea. >> a very cold air mass across the u.s. has brought temperatures down below freezing in so many parts, add moisture and we've got snow. a lot of mountain snow across the west but cold temperatures are going to be a story. very cold air mass getting into place. even friday morning will have temperatures in the single digits and teens. note chicago 18 in the morning, friday, 25 more memphis, tennessee. let's talk about today. we saw high temperatures that were lucky to hit 6°, for denver. boulder just under half an inch of snow. temperatures 20 to 40° below the normal for this time of year. now it is a little early to get this cold but we haven't seen any big records for the cold. however, it is going to seem dramatically different as we get into the next couple of days. the cold air slowly sliding eastward. we've got freeze warning from southern new mexico, texas, louisiana, into northern florida. temperatures overnight will be dropping into the low to mid 20s for parts of oklahoma and texas. several hours early morning. al jazeera america news continues. >> google street view is headed into uncharted territory. the popular map function gives users a street view of the world. now as part of an effort to preserve the earth's protected areas, discreet view is going undersee. andrew thomas has this perspective. >> it looks like the opening scene of a james bond films. but mounted on these is a sophisticated camera. >> at one end there are three cameras. which are perfectly synchronized to take images every three seconds, as the craft moves along the sea scape. >> the scooters can travel two kilometers on each dive and take a thousand panoramic pictures in 20 minutes. the team has so far examined 700 kilometers of the world's reef. but it's capturing the underwater world in the middle of australia's biggest city, mapping sydney harbor. the computer program creates a navigable series of shots. the aim is twofold, first, to create a state of the underwater world, this will provide scientists with a baseline to compare the reefs and fish in years to come. a basis to see what's below the surface of the sea. the ultimate ambition is to create a global record that engages people with these environments, and louse scientists to -- allows scientists to put the policies in place or help put the policies in place to ensure they are protected in turn. >> will allow google to incorporate this into the street view, now i can use these to go under there. in sydney harbor's chowder bay you can click around sea horses. up near shelly beach, a blue grouper. and a gray nurse shark and off the town of manley, school of yellow tail fuseliers. the aim, is for this to become an extensive navigable map. but as oceans warm, it could become a historical record of what was once beneath the waves. andrew thomas, al jazeera, sydney. >> coming up 11:00 eastern time, chinese hackers
