world views like we do, the scale of this camp is like nothing you've ever seen access to health care or something, but we want to know how does these things affect people? we revisit places day, even when there are no international headline. houses there are really invest in that and that's the privilege. as a journalist, let me hello, i'm in language. these are the top stories on al jazeera, the taliban has bound to respect women's rights figure. those who fought against it and make sure i get this done. doesn't become a haven for other groups, but it's promises being met with skepticism at home and abroad. it was the group's 1st news conference since it's rapid tank over came to show a new face to the world that taliban pledged inclusion education for women, religious tolerance, and media freedom. but all within the constraints of islamic law,
4:01 am
reports of human rights abuses in cities captured during their bonds have already caused concern. funny, i'm up with i had the design. the camera of afghanistan is committed to the rights of women within the framework of shari'a. are even have the same rights. they can work in different sectors on the basis of our rules and regulations in education and health and other areas. well then they are going to be working shoulder to shoulder with us, what we want to assure the international community. there will be no discrimination against women, but of course, within our religious framework, robert bride found this report from cobbled it was very significant. i mean, this really was almost like a keynote having setting out the tone and the china for the, for the forthcoming taliban government. and i think what we were getting with what the taliban wanted to, to get was the softer, more acceptable face of taliban rule. and a, they actually started with in quite a triumphal, it's way quite uncompromising,
4:02 am
talking about seeing grand terms about the emancipation of the country after 20 years expelling the forward as, as it was put, talking about this being a proud moment. i think actually given the sudden collapse of the government and the suddenness with which the taliban suddenly found themselves inheriting this country, i think they could be excused at to crow. but very much this was been aimed. i think not only at the afghan journalist and reassuring people have really beyond that kind of stand the international community here work stream li, skeptical eve and cynical about the taliban as an organization that with memories of what happened 20 years ago, with more recently the way it's acted in negotiations, for example, meant to have had negotiations directly with the government bastrop gunny which didn't happen, although the taliban says it's not their fault. they were acting in good faith. there is a lot of suspicion about the taliban. and then more recently,
4:03 am
in the conflict that we have seen the some of these really nasty, isolated incidents by groups of taliban fighters allegedly involved in war crimes which international organizations, human rights groups said should be investigated. so it was really the international community which i think needed to be convinced. so in addition to these very important messages, which we were expecting about assurances on the rights of women about maintaining a healthy media media culture for example. although, oh, be it within the framework or dictates of sharea, whatever that means and on who defines exactly what those are. so that's more problems with the future. survivors of a powerful earthquake in hazy and now having to cope with a tropical storm. heavy rain lashed, make shift shelters in the southern city of la k, one of the worst. his areas in the 2000 people have been killed in saturday. the clank, thousands more have been left homeless and many say they still waiting for aid from

i me if you grow something positive, it's great watching our kids grow up or seeing a tree grown. it we always aware and all grows must come to an end. there's the limit. nature knows no such thing of infinite growth. this rule seems to apply to every kind of growth but one economy grows. some are supposed to continue indefinitely. we believe them and now there are no limits. ready to growth and human progress, when men and women are free to follow their dreams, and we were right. if that growth failed to materialize,
4:06 am
we panic. but why? as one person recognized 150 years ago, the growth is the fundamental principle of economic system. capitalism only works when the economy grows. but callmax recognize something else as well. it is, this grows that it will eventually destroy the system itself. and today, after we reach that point, it's a system about to collapse. almost infinite growth actually be possible that governments don't want us to even question the g word. they don't even want to put a discussion around grace. if you were looking at this from the outside, it an alien arriving from out of space and you're looking at this society, you would really wonder what was going on. what are they doing? what, what is this growth that has to appear in every political sentence and is the basis of every economic textbook? what is it all about?

economy, the grace of the economy was doing a good job for us when, when we were young, if you like, when, as an economy as a society we were young. and one of the really important things to say is that there are some societies where that is still necessary, where you still need that growth, where you still need food, clothing, and shelter with a very, very poor undernourished people living on less than the price of a skinny laugh a from the cafe downstairs and that say that's a situation where growth makes some sense. but the idea that as human beings or we want ever is more, more stuff doesn't really stack up. so after a certain point, you have to ask yourself, how much is enough, how much, how much more do i need to grade the economy to satisfy human appetite? i 19 seventies. so growth rate, think for the 1st time due to the oil crisis and other factors. the boomers over
