you want and went. near giuliani stated and i'll refer you back to his comments this was information that the president didn't know at the time but eventually learned the president has denied and continues to deny the underlying claim and again i've given the best information i had at the time they have been pro france rallies on the pacific island of new caledonia as french president emmanuel michel makes his first visit to the french territory the trip comes ahead of an independence vote set for november the majority of the island's indigenous conic ethnic groups support a full break with france the president's office says mccall will not express a position on the vote palestinian leader mahmoud abbas has been reelected as chairman of the palestine liberation organization's highest decision making body is reappointment came at the first meeting of the palestinian national council for twenty two years a mosque boycotted the event mozambique's opposition leader awful so dot com has died a sixty five year old former rebel leader was found dead at his home in gore on gosa

dot com i led the armed group or a novel which fought a sixteen year civil war against the ruling friendly moment and ten thousand people on hawaii's big island have been ordered to evacuate their homes after the way a volcano erupted there are reports of steam and lava coming from cracks in the ground in the poor community the eruption follows a series of earthquakes the national guard has been activated those are the headlines on al-jazeera coming up next year it's earthrise i hope you do stay with us thanks for watching. once pristine indonesia's chittering river has become a toxic waste dump for textile factories that supply a global fashion chain one of many six ammons the human cost of the world's most polluted river on al-jazeera.

the conditions for existence on earth a sustained by complex web of climatic processes. i mean the rains predictable seasons and consistent temperatures all allow life to flourish. but over reliance on fossil fuels is causing the delicate balance of our planet to shift. instances of extreme weather used to be rather but now deadly heat waves wildfires powerful floods hurricanes and trucks are becoming the norm. the question is no longer will they happen but when and how we can cope with them.

i'm tony in kenya to explore a high tech solution that is helping her to survive on going to. and i'm a few viewed in myanmar where drones are helping to protect coastal communities against extreme weather events. two years when you have been in the grip of a devastating drought amongst those worst affected are kenya over five million pastoring for whom finding fresh water and lush pastureland is critical for the survival of bear heard something has been developed could something like this hold the key to getting heard is around the country through these difficult times. today and app called every scout is being launched in the town of. they'll be heard from

all over the region who've come to learn more about the app and take that information back to their villages i'm interested to see what they make of the new technology. every scout is the brainchild of project concern international p.c.i. and committed to helping. nearly four thousand people around africa use it so far and today it's been officially rolled out in kenya. i mean. i think what. p.c.i. hopes to revolutionize how hurt is find water by using something eighty seven percent of kenyans already have in their pockets. a smartphone well. the access to satellite maps which detailed the water conditions throughout kenya activity every ten days or.

you could all. just fine what. was right. using it haters can see instantly where to target migration and avoid using dry areas which need time to recuperate i. to find out more about how the app can help it is i'm off to southern kenya with some messiah i have lost the hof the account. joshua has been using scout for three months joshua yes i am thank you so much allowing us to come to your home and join you today these are your animals yeah these are my animals is my father says it to me to slobber. is my brother. is another brother of mine is on my way i was it's

a pleasure to meet you all so we're going to get started are we going to walk now or. there is a process milking the cows and the up. we will go. yeah. yeah. i mean that all will be. a bit wild yeah when you go did that mean it can possibly kick. for them aside cattle are highly prized a large car can fetch as much as five hundred dollars at market but it's even move valuable as a source of food for the family. something that seems so simple but it's really not as easy.

so when you have a drought. how does that affect your cattle. fifteen . i mean i know today we're going to take a trip i'm hoping. that makes it. that will be making. us.

wow. custom to booking as far as it takes to find good pasta. for months at a time. to become. joshua didn't have to add when the conditions were also extreme. this is what. well i was moving on if. we tried to help. you do you think.

that's incredibly sad. so you had gone to try and look for water and just for the cows but the cow just couldn't make the journey and the cow just collapsed here yeah it was a big call. in the morning six. in the event so it was a real loss for you. and just it brings back home just the thought that it's such a difficult way of life because you have to keep on the move to find the water and to find the grazing lands but in order to move these animals use so much energy to go from one place to another so if you don't know where you're going and you're just trying your luck wherever you can it's incredibly hard for these animals.

with almost thirty percent of his livestock already lost to drought it's even more pressing for joshua to keep his surviving cattle in good condition which means finding ample water during the training we have won't be the. point somewhere here we needed. according to the app it's thirty kilometers from where the start. is a really popular place to come into someone else's brook because. can we find a place under the tree maybe have a bit of a rest. so can we see this watering hole on the map is immoral we came from. here you can see from somewhere here. knowing the location of attempting to source like this could mean life or death for hood. well you got a weather was. nice it was a woman the app can make all this much simpler it's all about what you. do you do

not allow you teach him how to yeah ok because at the moment when you need to look for water for your cattle for pastures what do you do you just go blind and so you think you might use it. and does it sound interesting this is something something you would use and you could. it's been ten hours and we're into what should be good posture that. this is where you are in the morning. and we have on the way from order to carry we maybe. they maybe have an honorary myside maybe yeah. numbers you can see the difference. yeah yeah it's so much

better. so the cows will be able to stay here they'll have enough food to eat they will stay here oh almost one month and then left there we've. given them up i mean the rest of the i've had a wonderful day thank you so much i'm tired and i've had a wonderful story and i must thank you now we can move just because the sun is burning some couple couple then you've left yeah. yeah i could use one here. for her for the herders with access to satellite maps livestock mortality has really hard. since joshua has relied on i feel scout he hasn't lost any comes to drought and the money. to him has been a real success. yes they have a lot more money and oh yeah that was. it however there was an.

extreme weather reference and now a regular occurrence around the world. but. scientists have found that human caused climate change is at the root to over two thirds of them the result is often human suffering. in twenty seventeen hundreds were left dad and many thousands homeless by a unusual weather conditions. the hurricane season in the caribbean caused unprecedented levels of destruction. devastating floods swept across southeast asia tornadoes hit the south of the u.s. and california was roasted by a heatwave. since two thousand and nine one person every second has been displaced by disaster. it's predicted that by twenty fifty they'll be two hundred million

environmental migrants. what the country observed is stuck people migrate temporarily and there were short distance internally between their countries if there's a drought or an environmental stress you move to temporarily move but then there's strategic spectrum and incentives and the reality the people come back what we might see in the future is permanent migration i'm long distance cooperation you might see whole communities having to relook right across their life records are no longer have sustainable it might be an entire nation states that have to move. mangroves are among the most biodiverse habitats in the. planet they play a vital role in the lives of coastal communities but these forests are facing the

forestation thirty five percent of the world's mangroves of already been lost and here in the irrawaddy delta only sixteen percent were originally covered is left and in myanmar where local innovative project is combining grassroots conservation state they are drawn technology to take mangrove regeneration to new heights. jamar is vulnerable to cyclons which strike every few years in two thousand and eight the worst ever cycle nargis claimed more than one hundred thirty thousand lives. experts now believe that mangroves hold the key to saving thousands of lives and the next big storm hits. to find out how i've come to be

a local coconut farmer who agreed to show me his mangrove forest. a while is a proper tree. the tallest man groups here reached twenty five meters and a sturdy forty centimeters in diameter the force was planted after a cycle in one nine hundred seventy five. these trees here did you plant them we had to deal with aggregate human being. i mean. you can imagine these incredibly. violent storms that blow in here and you start to understand how these mature forth actually have the capacity to break that wind and stop some of that storm surge making its way into these settlements and farms and how about maybe some of the other farms where there's no mangroves do you know of any farms that suffer because of the storms any up there. is it

any are you dead. a dead line and look at the. machinery out about you know our common humanity maybe here i miss you gotta go i mean. i know i get up there so it's a protection yeah. so if mangroves is so effective at protecting against storms why if one million hecht is being cut down since one thousand nine hundred eighty eight leaving the population here unprotected. a meeting with a known and ecologists with thirty years experience in forestry to find out. i know you thanks for me are. there to be do you thanks so much. when heads the world few international phone nations among groups regeneration

project here in the i'm not. going. to get. the feet that. we could get. that. oh. wow. at the moment this segment graphic all over this mental condition is seriously degraded in that cost eighty are sixty percent of the villages they don't have a million jobs they're trying to find out their money from there. and they're going

to come in three within that one hour what they can get money for their livelihood now i understand so you're talking about really a negative feedback yeah it's like oh yeah it's this confluence of the environmental stresses and the economic stresses that has driving people into the mangrove yeah yeah i understand. shrimp and rice farming as well as charcoal production and strip myanmar of mangroves leaving it critically exposed . if action isn't taken soon the communities who live here in danger of being decimated by the next big storm. there are still trees yeah yeah there is this intrigue ok this is a war going to be ok from there to bob then fifteen. when one hundred locals and systematically planted hundred thousand seedlings by hand

here in the last three years. that all the way through doesn't it yeah. yeah. but the job is far from complete ok so we've come right into the thick of it here all that work that we can here in the background that's a lot of chopping and preparing of the ground before three hundred thousand seedlings or more are going to go into this mine so it sounds like there's a lot of hard work going on so we should maybe go on try and lend a hand. so can you tell me and you move you from this area you know i know there is a lot all of them are loaded. i don't even know why it all loaded i'm on all the you know females will. all get. me as indeed it is my way more lethal you feel some way you're.

giving something back when you know i lose i get out on going all. you know on the go to a cold while he do you like the look people are going to nominate me we've. got all my d.v.d. of unity they've been married he got a mom who they know they'll be able to all. who ma ma. ma ma ma of the. name of you know. yeah i understand you show me. i am a complete no of it just. can't. get it get the hang of it i feel it's all about the angles to get. just like that. the team of thirty five thousand hectares of coastline to plant. the racing to do it before the next big cycle that.

this is an incredibly complex ecosystem but we're looking at you as an ecologist it must be incredibly challenging. to move towards restoration to win this turn to the latest technology. business. we're trying to. make the plant the find room and they are they working today they. don't want him to be here. today the oxford based team of scientists will be testing with their double propeller course through coke to groom confining seven thousand seats in and out is so continue edge to stand back. and reena for the rink who heads up the project. so as this have been the mood for anything like this you know of no two thousand

knowledge we are definitely the first one and it's going to be our largest experiment is it just we can have a look at one of the poets to stick it to get a sense of what you were actually dealing with here so what is what is inside this they're made from by the great evil plastic and all natural material and society also while you have local science and you have local minerals and natural materials it looks like we're nearly there i just saw a green light. ok well good. the test would be successful if one shot into the ground. bedded the soil deep enough for growth to occur it works the team returned in a few months time to time twenty cool believe.

that is. i have never seen it from a guy before yeah. the drone has a preprogramed flight path if the seeds penetrate the soil the chance of each of these pods becoming a tree is greater than if planted by nature or hand because the depth will be moving system to it goes. down and the team are happy the seeds are in the ground and it's time for nature to take its course i was just thinking inside this thing i mean it's there's so much more than just seeds it's insta future it's a potential to save a life because it's the live in schildt they protect people from the ocean they protect people from tsunami from here against and we have to do it now and we have to do it at the massive scale because from today to maybe six not months from now maybe one year from now is maximum we will have a growing shield already so if the cycling hits next year people here will be

protected and when you when you put it like that you know all of a sudden something so small can seem very significant indeed so i'm actually going to put that back in the ground where we found. the scientists test is finished. but for women his team is just the beginning. they wanted to the seeds progress carefully. and fall goes to plan many more trees will be planted by drone here in the near future helping to safeguard the coast from extreme weather. all over the world people are having to adapt to unpredictable climate and weather patterns. in canada west sea ice has become

dangerously thin a scheme is providing real time measurements of ice thickness to local communities . this data reveals which routes the safe to travel and which i notice. meanwhile in los angeles where extreme drought has become the norm. ninety six million shade people have been put into the l.a. reservoir to help reduce evaporation rate it's. these projects show the level of innovation that communities are using to protect themselves against increasingly volatile weather. but the question remains are these long term solutions or are they just masking the real problem.

unpack it for us what are you hearing what we're seeing whether online horrendous things humans will disturb as i was looking for that about that or if you join us on the sat a lot of the major countries in the commonwealth how far bigger fish to fry and chips to eat bass is a dialogue talk to us about some of this success if perhaps everyone has a voice what happens when the robots themselves are making the decision to join the colobus conversation. and monday put it world on. u.s. and british companies have announced the biggest discovery of natural gas in west africa but what to do with these untapped natural resources is already a source of heated debate nothing much has changed they still spend most of their days looking forward to full dry river beds like this one five years on. the syrians still feel battered or even those who managed to escape their country haven't truly been able to escape the war. in the u.s.

civil war slavery to an end. there is a strong possibility that their very roots. could have been brought to your table by its way right here in the land of the free power of foreign workers tricked into emigrating and trapped by un scrupulous profiteers food chain slaves part of slavery a twenty first century evil on al-jazeera citizens unable to vote on represented in washington or members of congress do nothing about us like part of the constituency and their responsibility and that is what underneath this crisis phone lines visits the island devastated by hurricane maria and demanding the support of the u.s. government ordered weekender you know what it is and then the government has a responsibility and you know not let them forget the. shelter after the storm on al-jazeera.
