talks saying draft deals don't go far enough many say delegates are failing the people and the planets i think it's a disastrous profoundly disturbed the outcome the draft outcome that has been put forward by the chilean presidency is disgraceful it's completely unacceptable i don't know why they're afraid to stand up to the boss of the world who are destroying the the amazon and the donald trumps of the world that are pulling out of paris what is happening here is mind boggling and absolutely unprecedented on the extra day off talks then issues where. divergence from parties across the board this is set for a collapse unless we fix it in the next few hours scientists warn that if continues to warm there could be widespread shortages of food and water more weather
8:03 am
disasters and rising seas the clock has more from madrid. it was supposed to be the conference that would launch this to bring the board of optimism into 2020 the year that the paris agreement finally became this instruments of international cooperation in the fight against climate change instead what we got was disappearing into a black hole of national differences led by australia by brazil by japan by the united states and by more people and up until now we've had this watered down agreement that is a 1000000 miles away from what science says is needed to be done and what the mood on the street reflects is needed to be done a new text has been published we got reaction i think what's happening with the paris agreement it said people are some countries in particular trying to push it back from the level of ambition that we had which was a very ambitious anyway it was good enough but it wasn't really very good we need to raise ambition and countries are trying to push back on the level of ambition

that they had promised to them and we don't mean that madrid is a failure it might mean a madrid is a failure but then i feel that no decision is better than a bad decision and if it's a choice between a bad decision and no decision and no decision is better it isn't over yet and the talks will continue some of these negotiators have been asked for more than 36 hours but the willingness and the co-operation of the 2015 pounds agreement well that seems sort of evaporated. tom burke is chairman of the environmental group a 3 g. and a former government adviser on climate he says it's a bad sign that the talks keep being pushed into overtime. i don't think they're close to collapse i think they're having a very bad time there's always a device you can always as it were to stop the clock and roll things forward in any international negotiations if you get into a real logjam but it's a very bad sign and there's no doubt at all that the edges are right to be troubled
