parts of canada are also engulfed by why fi is including british columbia. canada is no stranger to wi fi, is in 2023, a record number of fires, fullest hundreds of thousands of canadians to evacuate. well, ecologist robert christ specializes in dealing with qualifies and says, the situation in canada and the west is now very serious. it's. it's pretty catastrophic. i mean, we were dealing with uh several years with a drought and we've got the right climate and fuels conditions. we're going to continue to see these kind of high, high severity, high extreme fires as someone who's been been dealing in this area for decades. i guess you're the right man to ask, is it actually getting worse in recent views as yeah, most of the modeling suggests that they kind of fired there were seen today. we didn't anticipate to see under climate change until about 202-030-2035. and we can

expect to see doubling and tripling of the area burned within the next couple of decades. so yeah, it is getting much worse in a situation like this. is there any way to really find the fires or can we only try and control and caroll these fires before the rain comes? yeah, the best thing to do is, is basically get people out of the way, including firefighters. is mother nature, that puts these large fires out. we have to do much more on the, on the front mitigation side. but right now when the fire isn't going, it's mostly just get people out of the way and hope and pray for changes in the weather. you talk about getting people out of the way is the best way to keep people out of the way to prevent them from living in places like this as beautiful as they are. do you see a day coming where it's just too dangerous to live in such a beautiful but so well forested areas. yeah, well there's

a balancing act we can have if we do a lot more mitigation upfront when it comes to dealing with fuels to prescribe burning and cultural burning and bidding, then we can still have your homes and communities in these places. but if we don't do that work then, then yeah, it's gonna be very unsustainable to live in those locations. is there anything that can be done in the future to prepare to backup or pay a far as like days? yeah it's, it's, it's large scale fuels work. i mean, we need to do a lot more cultural and prescribed burning on the scale of hundreds and thousands of factors a year. the us is burning about $9000000.00 acres a year. and i think last year in can we burned about $9000.00 acres, so we need to be doing much more of that. and it does show that the ending and burning is very beneficial to preventing large scale, high severity fires and minimizing damage, rubbing cry, fire ecologist, and while fine management consultants bank, right to get your input. thanks so much for speaking with us. for now, some of the stories making news around the world type and can be,

has displaced nearly 300000 people in eastern china. public transport has been suspended across the region, tougher and killed. more than 13 people, the 12 for taiwan and the philippines. earlier this week, donald trump says he has a very good relationship with the is ready prime minister benjamin netanyahu. 2 men met at trump's. myra laga state in florida. the form of us president has been trying to means relations with netanyahu, which salad in recent years. russian generalist as being held in custody of her alleged links with the light opposition later. like sign devonie antonie, of a sky work for an independent use outlet is accused of posting messages on the platform. brun button found these team. i deny the claim. if you out there is to hold 3 days of morning for the victims of devastating mud slides. well, the 250 people were killed in the dissolved state in

a remote area. in the south funerals has been held for us who done us so far at least have a rested one of the world's most powerful drug lords. the co found mexico seen a low, a cat till he was detained with the sign of narcotics kinking l. chapel. the 2 men boarded a private plan in mexico and flew to texas, where police were waiting for these at the faces of one of the world's most violent and powerful drug trafficking organizations in the world. the scene of the car town on the left is these my a mind your somebody on the right is joaquin guzman, is out best. both man are now in detention in the united states. after they landed in texas, a board, a private plane, as male, symbolic garcia, or mild, a co founder of the cartel. he is facing charges for fentanyl trafficking,

money laundering, firearms, offenses, kidnapping and conspiracy to commit murder. the 2nd, joaquin guzman lopez is a sign of its other co founder known as l chapel. and his facing charges for trafficking and large quantities of cocaine, heroin and mass among other drugs. does he not low a cartel has been blamed for decades of violence in mexico. it was founded in the 1980s by east might have somebody that has to yeah. and clocking in chapel guzman and chapel is already serving a life sentence in the us. after being extradited there in 2017. prosecutors in the united states say the car town is the biggest supplier of drugs to the us. including fentanyl seen here being smuggled and coconuts. the void is

the leading cause of death for americans aged $18.00 to $45.00. but while these arrests may be a welcome step and the war on drugs, us justice department has said it will not rest until every single cartel leader is behind bars. and it is an incredible story. one, that sounds a bit like the plot from the movie, mexican journalist javi a gaza told me about the background to these arrests. yes, it is remarkable. the way that things have unfolded seems yesterday, you know, as, as we have been piecing together the story of how the us got that in mind. your version now seems to be call listing in to some form of trees in or trap that parking was my office. so nobody chapel might have sprung on. uh, a jump was, uh, partner, basically this is, you know, like our sales uh, co founder. uh that is uh,

bolster also by the fact that according to my use lawyer uh today he put non duty when he had his 1st course, the fear is, you know, passel. so that basically sort of strengthens the idea that uh, what do you, who's mind, basically entrapped in my, you and took him to the united states based on the false pretences has been reported that they were going to be looking at some properties. so the, the big question now is, what kind of deal feed fucking guzman make with us authorities? a job in mexico for its pot says it was not involved in these arrests kuda authorities that really a pain in the doc about this or oh yes, definitely. i mean, the, the ages might move for very surreptitiously, without informing the mexican government of their movements or what you know, what their activities are, even if they are declared agents. mexican government doesn't necessarily know what

they're doing all the time. so whatever communications the ages might have had with 14 was mind or the mind your leading off to, to the fact that both of these people were traveling to the united states. it was pretty easy to keep the mexican government in the dark. also, because of the fact that it's very likely that the b e a was not trusting the mexican government. but keep in mind that it might use something by that was the most elusive off of the drug lords, he has never set foot in a jail. this bad to having a race, warren's safe, at least as back as 19 and 98 years ago to capture by more than 25 years. it was easy for the us government to think that the mexican government had no intention of catching him also because it was at that, oh my you was basically same. i retired living in hughes ranch in the mountains, sort of seen a lot ill. there are some reports that he uses has diabetes. and so there didn't

seem to be much interest on part of the mexican government and kept working for the us. so it's a major cool to land 2 meters of this. you know, the cartel at a time when the drug prices defense, new crisis, is a central part of the presidential campaign. here before we go, we'll just make any difference to the flow of illegal drugs around the world just briefly if you can, or i will, saturday, the worst of what am i using self. he told a journal this back in 2010 and the only interview that he was ever given. that whether he was captured or killed and was going never going to make a difference. and that is a truism in the world constructs in mexico. you catch the head of a cartel and the cartoon keeps 14. have you got a journalist from mexico? right to get your input. thank you so much. and that is all for this out. i'm anthony. how, thanks for watching. we'll leave you this out with images from paris, city of lots as it gets ready for the 1st days. competition of the 2024 olympics,
