and sustainable but it's the plight of african elephants that's expected to dominate these discussions with botswana namibia south africa and zimbabwe wanting to open up a regulated trade in ivory but others arguing that it will only increase illegal poaching and the hayward reports. running wild and free for now at least while elephants aunt on the verge of extinction more countries could lose their herds altogether destruction of habitat complet with people over land and poaching threaten the elephant down a back street in hanoi the capital of vietnam the floor of a timber plant is strewn with elephant ivory the result of illegal poaching part from here but traded in vietnam where it's possible to buy pretty much anything using your phone number. one man told an undercover investigator from a group campaigning against the illegal wildlife trade how he's able to open his

contacts in a pool of ivory inside a customs compound standing next to officials who are supposed to stop him campaigners say more needs to be done to tackle the traffickers m.b.m. which has become the global hub for the illegal trade reading there are compelling reasons do you do these noncompliance proceedings against vietnam so we're calling on all sides parties and world governments engine iran this month the beginning these noncompliance proceedings against vietnam with the view that if significant progress is non demonstrated. that they should be slapped would treat suspensions vietnam is under pressure to reform its practices and has bowed to do more there have been modest increases in elephant populations in kenya malawi in uganda but losses in tanzania mozambique and the democratic republic of congo complex with people over habitat loss is a problem but so too is poaching that's despite the $989.00 international

ban on the trade in ivory there are estimated to be about $400000.00 elephants in sub-saharan africa it's also estimated $55.00 african elephants are killed for their ivory every day that's $20000.00 a year. there is a long standing debate about whether i brew stock should be sold or whether that would provide further cover but the illegal trade campaigners say wildlife crime is worth noting but more needs to be done before it's too late and the heywood. well jasmin williamson is from the elephant protection initiative joins me in the studio now and of course it is the discussion about elephants that is key in this meeting with so many countries involved it's hardly surprising that there are divisions about whether there should be a blanket ban on the ivory trade or whether it should be regulated yes it's not just that you know the amount of countries that have the benefit of having out of

an african elephants in their country it's it's also the fact that the populations of those elephants differ so widely between say the southern african countries that you're seeing now pushing for decreased protection for elephants and the opportunities for trade and the central east and west african countries that are pushing family against it does that mean that there is some possible rationale if the population numbers vary that there might be a rationale for different rules in different places the problem is is that. elephant poachers don't differentiate between where they're looking for ivory so if you open up the trade again it makes all elephant populations vulnerable so having southern african countries or any african countries or anyone opening up trade in ivory encouraging consumer demand suddenly those central east west african populations are in mortal danger we're not talking about continent wide extinction

in the immediate term but for those countries they have maybe a couple of 100 elephants some of them and they will those those populations also national parks individual parks in those countries will lose their of the populations that are already on the brink even if they were complete how difficult would it be to enforce a rule like that presumably if there is demand for ivory then the the supply is going to be found poaching will continue yes as you say as long as the demand continues to exist then elephants will continue to be a target 3 things have to be done at once one is that of force and has to be upped on the ground boots on the ground you need ranges you need police offices customs watching international trade making sure that nothing gets out you need to disrupt the trade both by protecting elephants and stopping ivory from leaking into the illegal markets then on the flip side and entirely in tandem with all of this to

have to be concerted demand reduction efforts everything has to be done at once and this u.n. conference in geneva isn't just looking at elephants there are also concerns about other vulnerable species and they're looking for a legally binding protections. apart from the elephants one of the species particularly concerned about to the point where we're reaching emergency. from the point of view of someone of the elephant conservation charity where obviously. very happy the elephants are still getting a lot of the focus because the fight is far from over however we are also concerned to see other things taking up so much of the agenda for argument such as the ones that we're seeing at the moment we we know top partners in places like kenya specifically are looking for increased protection for the giraffes whose population numbers have dropped by about 40 percent in 30 years which is an astonishing figure that has gone rather on motive obviously penguins are in dire need

of protection and tension vultures in places like zimbabwe elephants are killed often using cyanide is no girl gold mining that occurs nearby if a vulture comes across an elephant caucus with cyanide they go down in the hundreds and it's not just vultures but other species that come across them other scavengers but you're seeing huge vulture declines as well vultures are such an integral part of an ecosystem that basically that clean is and without them you are facing just on yeah so when you hear conservationist say there are these unprecedented specie declines unfolding because of the exploitation of mankind and that something has to change but time and again we see is just everything continues with business as usual do you have any real expectation that will change after a meeting like this so. is a remarkable thing in itself it's

a convention that spilled around the idea of controlling trade but by extension therefore becomes a conservation body because countries are interested to make sure that. you don't you want to have a sustainable population of something if you're trading too much in it then you don't have that so to get 180 countries in one place discussing these issues is really remarkable so that's that's the 1st thing the other thing is the. in the case of elephants we do have hope we are seeing change we're seeing the stability of poaching rates it's no longer going up with seeing the stability of ivory prices again also no longer going up we're seeing like i said the dumond reduction efforts and enforcement efforts operating in tandem and and we're starting to see change on the ground. one of the biggest steps one of the biggest changes we've seen in this field is china closing their domestic market we really think that's having a big impact on the outlook for elephants thank you very much for shedding some

light on this for us jasmine williamson from the elephant protection initiative went out united states is continuing its pursuit of the iranian oil tanker held for 6 weeks and gibraltar the department of justice has issued a warrant for the ship's detention the vessel is preparing to leave gibraltar by sunday off to supreme court judges in the british territory or did its released new crew members are on board and the super tanker has also been given a new name it will now sail under the iranian flag off its registration was switched from panama under simmons has more from gibraltar. there may be a warrant in place from a u.s. district court for the seizure of the ship and the full faith of its cargo but it's have little effect on the slow pace of preparations some of the crew had used to board to actually put stencils all the store and paint in the new name adrian daria wall and the registration question that's the

largest island in iraq. there's still no flag flying it's expected in the iranian war and will arrive soon along with extra crew members offices 6 of them to be arriving on sunday including a new captain but right now whatever u.s. action is taken under the terms of their legislation and the sanctions they've imposed don't relate they can be linked to the case in which this super tanker has been released so right now iran is of the opinion that it's vessel is free to set sail on its right because to brawl to says any action from the us under the terms it's been talking about seems to have no jurisdiction here so could there be a case at a late stage it's thought unlikely. lawrence brennan is

a professor of international maritime nora fordham university he says that his speech is likely to continue even after the tank has set sail the question is an issue. and will there be an order from the u.k. were there. we would be see again that's an interesting question would be interpol who would be somewhere else we don't know whether it and another crop were being hacked or is the repudiation by the iranian government of the representation that the suppose we made to the u.k. that it and its core will would not go to syria after reached where it. was but remains in. government while we have absolute freedom everywhere where. you have made a. short statement. now thousands of

women of musher the streets of mexico city demanding justice after a series of alleged sexual attacks by police offices *. reports of 2 alleged attacks on teenagers this month have sparked outrage with protest is mobilizing on social media 117 year old girl says she was raped by a group of policemen in the city's north days later a 16 year old accused a police officer of raping her in a museum the allegations are being investigated but so far no arrests have been made well for the 11th weekend in a row central hong kong has been shut down by protest as this time very many in the crowd which anting in favor of the government tens of thousands came out demanding an end to the pro-democracy demonstrations which have plunged the city into turmoil and abdul hamid brings a small from hong kong. but now they get it under the banner of say phone calls to

denounce recent violence during protests and to show support for the police here in tomar park just to china is clear but there's more than just that the crowd is mostly middle aged or older part of a generation that grew under british colonial rule and want to protect their lifestyle david chu works in the service industry he is one of $200.00 government supporters from to same neighborhood what he called the cellar i absolutely don't accept the demands of the protest of us troops not what the general public wants not that the months can be managed they are all nonsense and excuses. was the people here are calling on the police to uphold law and order and blame protesters for divisive outburst of violence. and we all love hong kong we all part of china will firmly believe that so i don't want this place to be ruined and that's why i came back and support and do the rally back cannot take any violent

demonstration that we can see as witnessed by so many young writers you know and that fifa stating he's killing my killing my feeling oppressed who comes harbor in kowloon davis son march with the pro-democracy protesters mostly young people who fear what they perceive as the growing influence of the chinese government in hong kong's affairs they feel their demands are being ignored and frustration is growing and should be such that if i chiefly feel things you respond shall we must face myself very angry and i lost my emotions. in this society so i think that's why we come out is to let's just hope that they can respond to. part of the anger is also to his depletes whom they accuse of using excessive force but the protesters are under pressure for bringing chaos to districts these divisions threaten to take hong kong apart between

a generation content with the present and one that is worried about the future of the south but at the hemi own cause. edible in sex they are rich and protein low in cost and eco friendly also more than 2000000000 people in them as part of their standard diet for those who can get past the it factor the business of eating bugs is on track to be the next one cuisine on iraq is the lucky man reporting on this now from mexico city around the world there's a growing demand for insects as food and why not they're high in protein and have a minimal carbon footprint compared to many other foods it's worth considering the pas.
