[000:00:00;00] the, this is dw news life from the critical you and climate folks on the verge of failure, a stand off of what to do about fossil fuels, blocks a deal at comp 28. okay. see ations of going into over time as delegates try to avoid working away without an agreement to limit levels. also coming up, israel says it will restart security checks. it to border crossings to ramp up a delivery to civilians in gaza. multiple 8 agencies are describing between monetary and situation that as opposed to lifting
4:01 pm
the new clips. mckinnon. welcome to the program. we starting to buy what negotiations of the cop 28 climate summit have gone into overdrive trying to avert failure. some countries including germany, the us on the u. k, are refusing to sign up to the license drill stale, or a reference to phasing out fossil fuels, was taken out of the text, the summons host, the united arab emirates, have said they will now try again. in the hope of finding a consensus of developing countries on economies is what some negotiations of the tools have been say. we will not sign or difficult certificates. we cannot sign on on to text that does not have strong commitments on phasing out fossil fuels. this
4:02 pm
texas clearly in the 1st trends and disappointing so as we, as a european union outstanding for, for you and assessable energy for, or in this road, we cannot support this text. and we will come here for 2 weeks in order to say that people might be able to do something. we need to do something the whole point of the global stuff. take us to look in. the middle of them are tells us we need to act and that's what we're here collectively to do. and if we don't we have all polluted login. so in memphis, facebook sciences, i'm pitied, and we need to on the cop 20. it directs in general manjeet l y d responded to the criticism, holding out hope that the language around the fossil fuel phase out may end up in the final tech stuff through we're facing the most demanding cop agenda of all time . and what we are seeing right now is everybody working through that agenda all
4:03 pm
cops are challenging. but in this cop, we're trying to do something that has never been done before. something historic. we are trying to agree a comprehensive plan to close the gaps between where the world is and wherever it needs to be to keep 1.5 degrees within reach. that is all know stuff that has been all on know stuff all along. part of this is to include language on fossil fuels in the text. if we can, that would be his star it. so despite says a failure of the cult $28.00. all right, so general says he is so hoping to seal a historic deal, but that would require an almost equally historic compromise. i also dw clement reports of tim shown, but what that might look like. well, that is very difficult to say as there are many, many formulations. so on the table, a very tiny particular words that are seeing the parties are a fighting about one approach could be
4:04 pm
a general approach could be that the industrialized countries would need to phase out early of in developing countries. that will be one option that we are hearing. another one is that the rich, the countries develop, countries would need to phase out mean was some developing countries would only need to phase down with some timelines. there's also the discussion over common caption storage which can reduce the emissions to some extent and to find the and then the 3rd option, which is rather a leverage i would say is the financial aspects. um, we the, it could be a landing ground opening doors, many developing countries have difficulties to access money on the financial markets. and as they also have a huge step problems, and therefore the interests are very expensive. they need money for the energy transition, which would require fossil fuel fuel phase out and i'm opening a money few uh, money channels. so yeah,
4:05 pm
giving them money and forms of friends or loans. put open doors to reach a lot more consensus on the fossil fuels side of the negotiations here. more than $100.00 nations cooling for a phase out of oil, gas, and cold, but they all only around hall since the countries attending comp $28.00 and oil producing nations are best of represented of this conference than ever before. many campaign is a saying, a sophisticated campaign by fulfill feel, love us is to blame. so the worse it down text a cool for an end to binding fossil fuels for energy. the hot top pick up, this is climate so much and you buy a of a sudden the only acceptable possibility given the reality of global warming, is a rapid phase. a sentiment occurred by more than a 100 countries, including small island nations. but it's a deal, but could be scuffed,
4:06 pm
put on to mind, at least in part x, but say by the fulfill lobby we see the effects of it is happening. and the fact that these conversations these negotiations are lagging as a result of that. more than $2400.00 fossil fuel representatives are credited for the to buy talks. a record number according to come pain is to say they are active through sponsorship, contact to high level individuals, and also part of some country delegation. i do think it makes a difference. i mean, the, we've seen indeed that there were a proof that some countries were using uh, the form here to make some use and to gain access to high level decision makers. countries reliance on fossil fuels with our economy have also lobbied for full face up to the oil, coal, and gas to be rejected from a final comp declaration. cope 28,
4:07 pm
president felton algebra. also head of the united arab emirates, state oil company. i know that it was vital fossil fuel companies be included in the top, the u. a. he was later accused of planning oil deals at the summit to the organization of the petroleum exporting countries or opec, which represents big oil states, including the u. e. saudi arabia all jerry and venezuela, among others called on its members to proactively reject any tax to formula. the targets energy are you fossil fuels rather than emissions? it is no single solution or pass to achieve a sustainable energy future. we need to get a stick approaches to tack on emission one that enabled economic growth in the cape poverty and increasingly dizziness at the same time. what impact lobbying has truly had on the final decision may never be fully known. either way,
4:08 pm
these protest as could have to wait until the next climate conference in azerbaijan, for neutrons, for fossil fuel phase out. all right, let's get more from the w clement correspondent, louise osborne, who file that report for us could see. louise, i mean if we're being honest was, and it always going to be really difficult to get to achieve a fossil fuel phase out. you know, given that this is climate conference is being hosted by the way that the, you know, what are the well biggest oil and gas produces? i mean, it's been a huge concern ever since it was, and i was also the president would be the head of the, the states, oil company even. and you know, there has been, the kind of fossil fuel has been on the agenda more in this call than ever before. not only in terms of the phase out or face down, but also, you know, in terms of the, the interest that have been put forward from the fossil fuel lobby as themselves. and we see that there are companies who are definitely there and involved oil
4:09 pm
companies like b, p, n, e and a total that are showing exactly the real science who are also on the delegations of some of these countries. um, but the problem is that, you know, we have a lot of countries that are taking part that are big oil states. most oil exploration anyway is done by states. so they really have the power. it's kind of block what us talking into stop at the open made really okay. that some of the countries who have opposed have blocked this idea of phasing out fossil fuels all themselves extremely vulnerable to global warming. can you help us understand why, you know, countries like that would flight and move, the scientists essentially saying is, is a way of saving them in the future. i mean, i think when we think of petra states for waste, thinking of the big players like saudi arabia and the united urban mistress and the america, which are obviously they have
4:10 pm
a lot of money in there. they're quite developed actually. but they're all countries as well that are really heavily develop a, sorry, dependent on oil. so i'm thinking, can i, jerry, a todd of congo for example. some of these african states that need the money to develop and without that money they, they don't know how to kind of move forward with that. and one of the big problems is making sure that, you know, if there is a face out, is going to be equitable so that they are able to move forward without losing, you know, some of the progress and the development. and they have been calling for, you know, the to the industrialized countries to offer up funding and financing to help them reduce that carbon emissions. not funding hasn't been forthcoming or, or not enough funding anyway. so that is one of the big issues with regards to, you know, having a phase out in this field. how can those developing countries that are relying on fossil fuels still move forward? me in just a couple of seconds. you know,
4:11 pm
these negotiations were never going to be easy. they haven't been in the past any, you know, any hope or learning lessons from the pos, the, you know, that might be a deal of this call a, this a, at the end of this conference, i mean, they're helping conferences in the past. what happened met? the, you know, the hopes of the delegates, their progress has still been made. they're always going to be difficulties when you get a $197.00 countries coming together trying to make a deal. if we don't get a phase of this time, it doesn't mean that it isn't on the table for a few checkup conference. go to stay positive results. so thank you so much. now is really officials say they are increasing security screening of a deliveries bounce. the goal is to enable move supplies to enter the territory the term for long check point. what reopen, but it will be used to check deliveries before the sent through the rough uh, border crossing the connects egypt and garza to egyptian scarce resources said inspections would begin on tuesday under a new deal between israel,
4:12 pm
egypt and the united states. a senior international correspondent, funny for charles in jerusalem, and she told us more about the a delivery screening and what it could mean for garza, we are talking about inspections and not to be confused with the cam shown crossing to be open, which is closed since october the has actually before that hundreds of trucks could get in and get out and deliver much needed 8 hundreds of trucks i'm seeing. and right now the situation is that the trucks can only get through their off full body crossing, but many a drop in the bucket in the current situation with the ongoing rule. so having said that, an additional inspection, a facility, basically there at the junction between israel and gaza, and egypt and gaza may stop there. and additionally, inspection that is much needed and it seemed read as a ray of hope because of that would push that possibly mean to alleviate the pressure on, uh, which we got to traffic that really hundreds of trucks to
4:13 pm
a miles away from the roof for border crossing and that would mean that move trucks could possibly get in. they still need to go through russel border crossing, but at least there's an additional inspection and the hundreds of thousands of people really in gaza, desperately waiting for food for medicine, food, shelter, and for protection. in fact, the u. n. has already said that with the ongoing move, there's less and less supply available, which means that the trucks that are going in the risk of being attacked simply by desperate citizens. we have all seen those pictures of people trying to come through the rubble underneath us. baker restored it was attacked, trying to get bread, parents skipping meals in order to make sure that the children are getting sued. so the situation is really desperate as a result that crossing even though it's not opening, but the fact that more inspection may be possible as a result is as i say, a ray of hope to get at least a bit of me a, i was
