serve the parts of the country. this decision by the supreme court is now going to be a welcome decision. we can point to states like web log when i was one school just to name a few. we should also know that the archbishop of the catholic church here in mexico did formerly request that the supreme court yesterday ahead of this vote reconsider it's decision. but having that said wheels are in motion. mexico now becomes the most populous country in latin america, to seek legalization to seek de criminalization of abortion. and we should note that this does arrive at the same time that we're seeing tougher restrictions being place right across the border in texas. so it wouldn't be difficult to imagine a scenario where women in texas could be coming to mexico seeking safe and legal abortions which just a few years ago would have founded quite a real manual fellow with the late to say from mexico city manuel, thank a lot more felt the come in this news, our just, i can't take it anymore. why some doctors and nurses in the

us are quitting their jobs is there from coastline teen hit a new hi wrapping up in germany's economic recovery. angular merkle says, a motor show is crucial to our country's post pandemic plans. and then for europe's golfer as hold their nerve to pull off a rare team victory in the united states. ah, how i got lots of late summer sunshine across so much if you're a pat the moment last be clear skies lots of warmth around too high pressure, dominating the weather here so that's keeping it settled and sunny. wanted to focus a fright into scandinavia. some showers to some shop showers about it to pass off

the mediterranean, still one or 2 showers there. still around spain and portugal. big change comes in over the next couple of days. is area of low pressure to started to push its way in from the atlantic, and that will bring some cooler, wet weather foundry down pools into western pass sport. oh, a routes. 7 or 8 degrees cooler than was seen in recent days or something of a change in conditions here. head of our re, we still got some warmth, f, a london for paris, and for glasgow. 27 celsius in glasgow with 31 the for paris. but it's all change as we go on into thursday. the cloud and the right moves through. we're going to see some wet weather live, the showers mobile service being resume for some. it's not wet weather, making its way through the low countries and getting across into a good part of germany ahead of that is slightly fine and dry. still a few showers sat a central part of the mediterranean north africa. on the other hand, while she dry and 5 heavy showers, they're pushing across a good part of nigeria, making their way through west africa. ah.

my name is sandra webber. i'm the foster mom in the county junior refund shoes. if you book for the live mechanic workshop, you will see that you said you're gonna use mine. i do that for you specially missed on it and not the got mine. i do. they are women. i strong with my my dear on out there. ah, got one of the box that growing nation in the world. i needed to open and development into national shipping company to become a t middle eastern tough for trade and money, skillfully enough out 3 key areas up to about filling up from it. so connecting the world connecting the future got cut to gateway to whoa

trade. oh, a, come back is a reminder of the top stories here on al jazeera, the taliban spokesman has announced the names of the men who will be leading afghanistan's new transitional government. the list of cabinet members is dominated by members of the groups old guard, and there are no women. frances talk court of appeal has ruled against one of the country's largest companies over allegations that funded isolating syria. the company continue to operate there between 20122014. despite the threat of armed

groups including i saw in the region and police of fire tear gas at supporters of the brazilian president as they attempt at the storm. the supreme court, charitable sonata has attacked the country's voting system and judges, while critics accuse him of trying to undermine democracy in latin, america's largest country. el salvador has become the 1st country in the world to adopt the bitcoin as legal, tender. the president has declared the future for the country, but he column is sworn that using the vala tile and unregulated criminal currency is a risk. john holeman joins the slides. now from san salvador, so pretty controversial. but how was the role of going so far above or we're actually one of the points where we've got a special atm behind this. we just think cynthia is planning to where you can actually change bitcoin into dollars here that it does charge the commission to do

that. and it's where a lot of people, the people here in the t shirts, right? to explain these people how this system will work, they call it chiva, which means cool in a salvador, but it isn't going away that, that cool. so far we've been here for a little while. the only couple that we saw who actually managed to get that digital wallet, the application chief a working we just one couple that money to get that done. a lot of people have problems with registering it. and then after that we went with them to a couple of restaurants to see if they could use that big coin to get something. every person gets the dollars a big coin that decides to use this application. and they didn't manage it, even a pizza hut, which president kennedy said, have been accepting big coins. so teething problems at the start of this, this doesn't necessarily mean that it's going to be a failure in the long term. the president said it might take a while to get this right, but there are always you said, worries about this. one of them is a big coin, very volatile and ready in a pilot program that we visited. people was saying to us that can be

a problem when i got transactions from the day before. and then i go back and see what happened to find that the price of the transaction had gone down over night. so that could be a worry and one of latin america's poorest countries, where people don't have a lot if they start to save in bitcoin or start to use in daily transactions, realize of losing money. they might not want to not be a survey. about 2 thirds of people from el salvador sit at the moment. they didn't want to use this currency, i should say as well, but it isn't the only option. it's not some of those just suddenly changing completely to bitcoin. the u. s. solo, which has been the currency that's been used for about 20 years. it is still in force, will still be used businesses at the moment at least won't be forced to accept big coins and people won't be full suspending them. so the moment is a task of president who kelly to try and convince this country that this is worth it. and then glitches like this is going to sort out. yeah, it's going to be interesting to see how it all develops over the next the days. and

weeks john holeman with the latest from san salvador, john, thank you. well, the world bank has rejected el salvador request, the help it implemented the use of bitcoin because of concerns around transparency, but also the environment. it takes huge amounts of electricity to run the computers that essentially create the digital currency. a practice known as bitcoin mining. it takes around 9 years worth of electricity used by an average american household to mine, one coin, and the older computers are often discarded to make way for faster models generating more a waste than several countries. over all the industry is estimated to consume around 90 para wat hours of electricity annually. that's more than nations like denmark or finland. in fact, crypto currency mining was partially to blame for electricity blackouts in around the summer. forcing the government to band practice for 4 months,

all that power obviously generates a c. o. 2 emissions in march, bank of america, said that bitcoin industries emissions had risen to 60000000 tons. that's equal to the exhaust of 9000000 cars. hello salvatore's president. unable kayla has tried to counter sustainability concerns, saying that he's instructed a state owned firm to develop bitcoin mining facilities using renewable energy from volcanoes. brian lucy is a professor at trinity business school with extensive research into crypt currencies any joins us live now from dublin. so thank you so much for joining us here on al jazeera. so 1st of all, just explain to us what bitcoin mining actually entails. and why it necessitates so much energy so that evening, happy to be on. because this is what's called a crypto currency. now, as we saw there from your clip, its currency,

people can use ac ends to withdraw crypto, they can withdraw the money and then use it for buying goods and services, paying bills, et cetera. it's called crypto because it's set up that you have to effectively solve puzzles, cells, mathematical puzzles on your computer, or a program, solve the puzzles, and anybody who has been a lot of us have been working from home. will know, you know, this is huge, much heat comes out of even a little small domestic laptop. can you imagine than the amount of heat electricity that's been used for very large, specialized, think of server farms like you will when you're thinking of google or amazon or 10 cent, storing data in the cloud. these enormous rigs that are used to solve these cryptographic these, these computer puzzles both utilize a huge amount of electricity and generation and usually waste a huge amount of heat. there are some companies in china that are using this excess

heat try and feedback in 2 to heating systems, but it's very energy intensive usage. and then of course the system itself has to also. ready use electricity in order to process the payments and the, the services that are purchases are just using the correct me if i'm wrong, basically people have to validate the transactions that happened with bitcoin. and that's where the competition comes in. is that correct? to enter them into a public ledger if you will of bitcoin transactions. is there any way of not having this competition or would that automatically mean regulating it somehow which is exactly what something like bitcoin is not about. it's about not being regulated. well, there are alternatives, what are called block chain architectures, which can have different ways of as you say, validating you notice from your report at the top people were saying, hey, look, the, the thing i sold last yesterday by the time it got validated into my account,

i got less than i thought i was, so that's not obviously desirable. that doesn't happen when you send over a $10.00 band. when you tap with your visa cards. there are other approaches, architectures. the most efficient ones tend to be what are called centralized. in other words, they require somebody in the middle the script though, the, the electronic equivalent of a swift payment system to effectively stand in the middle and say, i've taken your money and validates and i guarantee that i would get that money to somebody else. the problem there, of course, is, as you rightly pointed out, the attraction and the allure of point another cryptic currency. these, they're very decentralized nature that makes them anonymous, the transactions anonymous. if you have somebody in the middle be a bank or central bank, it loses anonymity and therefore isn't perhaps as attractive to the libertarian leaning, very pro marcus,

very market driven advocates. this is what we see the force in el salvador is a very interesting test because it is now a head to head between 2 alternative monetary and financial systems. and that kind of market based competition is exactly of course what crypto enthusiasts have said is needed. so let's see who in a sense, wins that, that. but i suppose when it comes to the environmental side of things that we know, salvador remains a relatively small country. but if more countries and bigger countries started to adopt bitcoin as legal, tender, environmentally, the way things are going now would mean it would be a disaster for the environment right now. well, it wouldn't be good. i'm not sure if the disaster is estimate the con, uses about 25 to one percent of global electricity production. and that's maybe a year or maybe a year to half that growth induction asleep. so would certainly be an acceleration of,

of electricity production. if that electricity was being produced through 100 percent renewables, that wouldn't be a bad thing. we've seen, of course, you say that as is both best. and course, by having volcanoes, the blessing is that they've got your time of power. the problem is a huge amount of electricity. you've got to go for the cheapest kind of power and right now globally. ready renewals are not quite at the point where there be attractive price points. if you're in northern china, if you're in iran, if you're in mongolia, you're going to be using relatively cheap electricity, but also relatively dirty electricity. and that's a problem for sundry, which want to take part in a more agree that it's just the generation process. so therefore themselves costs between the demand for electricity, which is good for the companies. the fact that since the powered by the carbon intensive usage, not right for the economy, long run, and professor see very briefly again, because we have a lot of time,

but the things bitcoin is here to stay. i think the coin is here to stay because it's an interesting new talk with us. i would be surprised and of course this would be to happen tomorrow when the professor says this won't happen. you can guarantee some will happen. but i think it's going to be an awful long time before we see bitcoin in particular. and for those in general, becoming the dominant way in which people transact. i think what could happen is we could have a thing called central bank digital currencies, which are similar to in concept decline. but that's another day's work. that's another discussion. bryan lucy, professor trinity business school speaking to us from dublin as sir. thank you so much for explaining a very complicated issue in very clear terms. thank you. thank you. now, the number of deaths from covey 19 in africa has just passed at 200000 the continental 1300000000 people hasn't suffered as badly as was feared at the start

of the pandemic. that has been more than 3 times the number of deaths in the united states alone. but there are concerns over the future is only around 8 percent of people in africa as $54.00 nations. have received at least one dose of any kind of vaccination. more than 40000000 corona virus infections have now been recorded in the u. s. and that's our at the highest since last winter, the latest surge is being driven by the delta, very into and by those who are unvaccinated. now some health care workers are saying enough is enough. al jazeera is heidi show. castro has one a 70 year old woman had just died inside the shreveport, louisiana hospital. she'd been here 4 days battling cove in 19. now nurses prepare her for the funeral home. i don't think anybody ever had to take a lot of loading docks. are you seeing a lot of doctors and nurses across the united states are struggling under the

burden of a 4th wave of hospitalizations and deaths driven by the delta variant and the close to 40 percent of americans who remain unvaccinated. most of the feeling is your anxiety exhaustion, and just not knowing when this is going to end a couple of hours to take her in the state of mississippi. some 2000 nurses have quit since the pandemic every day. and just people can't take it, not because they don't want to do a good job. we've made it really hard for them with this influx, our health care system. the doctor, the nurses in this emergency room are trying to manage 3 times the amount of patients that they saw prior to this civil war receiving care in the waiting rooms . any where they can be the staff, you're called this a constant. marathon disheartened andy, more allies, many are resigning, retiring, or taking lower, paying jobs to distance themselves and the memories of fighting the virus. i see

these people over and over again. when i try and sleep. this mississippi nurse has turned in her resignation to watch this person to teary rate and ultimately die alone and in a hospital bed. to watch the combination of someone's life. i just, i can't take it any more. staff shortages and louisiana hospitals have required some doctors to double up as nurses aides. right now the state has 6000 vacant nursing job openings. there is no doubt that being overwhelmed over 17 straight months and not being able to spend time with your family. the only natural reaction for our teams is the struggle. many have beg in vain for more people to get vaccinated or blamed themselves for not being convincing. now some

are just set up and done. while still more though exhausted and overwhelmed, press on heidi joe castro al jazeera guineas. crew leaders have replaced the heads of administrative regions with military officers. further tightening their control of the country, west african nations. the threatened sanctions after colonel, my mighty de boyer led a cood supposing president of a con day on sunday that will hold a virtual summit on wednesday to discuss the military takeover. the junk says it plans to form a unity government and hold the election, but gave no timeframe. chancellor, angular merkle has opened the germany's international motor show, the 1st thing europe. since the start of the corona virus. pandemic organizer is lost billions of dollars and canceled events, but merkel told motor workers that the industries recovery is insight. and to simmons report from unique 2 years without

a show. when now europe's biggest comment, good. germany takes anticipations. gentlemen. the id lies lots of razzmatazz and not a gas guzzler insight. here attempt to come and nerves of around 808000 german workers, dependent on the car industry, the outgoing german, chancellor and discipline. and we want to pick up where we left off and allow the economy to really catch up. again. this can already be seen in the motor industry, even if some supply bottlenecks accosting shadows at the moment. those shadows take some of the shine off, electric car sales. the weakest link isn't range anxiety, your recharge infrastructure. it's the chip many millions of desperately needed semiconductor microchips to be exact. it theory. i mean, there are manufacturers that have to stop certain production line because they're missing out on the p o that they have to built into that car. and this will go on

for a couple of months while the motor industry itself is doing really well, the shows to promote it, have crashed, cancellations, because of coven have cost organizes more than $40000000000.00. even before the pandemic, the shows were losing money. so now, although at 1st sight you might not realize it, there are changes. it's shiny, it's new, futuristic, contemporary. but you might be forgiven for thinking. this is a ca show. the organizers say no. i make over is underway. corporate consultants have dropped the word car from the events name. it's now a nobility. sure. and the consultants have come up with what they think. a catchy questions. what will move those next steps? maybe this or thomas bus, or for those of us old enough to remember the bubble car. this one has its own brain. all electric motorcycles, power pedal bikes. another question,

why are we here? well, many big names from the united states and elsewhere didn't show up to answer that. the electric car is secure, the road ahead is green, but for the mobility show, the future may not be as smooth run. andrew simmons, al jazeera munich caves to get all the sport. now here's santa, thank you very much barbara. we start with a road to next year's woke up here and cut off one of tuesday's star performances and european qualifying. it came from memphis. the pile of the netherlands, the barcelona forwards at school, the hat trick as the dutch fresh turkey, $61.00, the pi getting his 1st 2 before the break and he said less than 10 minutes into the 2nd half the when mean? so there's billions that top group g on goal difference or the team level on points with the dutch in norway, who had the 100 hero of their own receive documents earlier holland starring to

help his side beach balter 51. and it was no. rinaldo, no problem. for portugal without the captain who is defended, they still impressed with the 3 now away when over as begun. fernando silva and they got on the score sheet before the break and your go show to go to goal number 3 on 75 minutes 40. please remain on beaten and qualifying, and helps a antwan goodness, thoughtful france as they picked up a confidence boosting victory. the will champions had drawn the last 2, but were to know when, as against finland, guzman is going twice from the top of the group with 12 points from 6 games. an african qualifying son is yes, senegal and nigeria all got winds on tuesday to maintain their perfect thoughts to the 2nd round. it wasn't such a good day, however, for african chances all julia,

they were held to 11 drop by barking fossil. it does, it focuses, had gone into the game, often a nail when over duty. it looked like business as usual. when sophia, and for julie opened the scoring in the 1st half, but looking at fossil level, did just pass the hour to 10 group. when is in africa, will make the final tail, and then 5 of them will ultimately qualify to an asian qualifying some of the continents top teams recorded winds earlier, south korea secured a one mill victory over lebanon, substitute town hall, and one with the mac, twin and the 60th minute, the top 2 in each group qualify automatically for the world. japan have bags the 1st when in the final round of qualifying they be china, one, they'll away the japanese have some massive games coming up next month. they take

on the saudi arabia who beat oman earlier and australia. well, the cell cruise themselves are looking good and haven't taken the perfect thought to the final round. they beat vietnam one nil to make 2 winds from 2 in group. be fair say they've opened disciplinary proceedings involving the federations of argentina and brazil following sundays, abandoned match, it will cup qualify, and sal paula was abandoned when health officials claimed the argentina's english base plays shouldn't have been allowed onto the pit. if you have off both teams to provide further information related to the incident which will be reviewed by the bodies disciplinary committee. with william police have also open investigation into the 4 argentinian plez in question. why has dynamic with them has

booked his spot in the us open semifinals the 2nd see the advanced by beating surprise package. both take the sean shop and full sets midway. that is looking for his 1st grand slam title and tampa booking is that star tom brady. says colbert, the 19 risks are much greater for plays for the upcoming season brady and his super bowl winning teammates hosted dallas cowboys in the season open on thursday. at the new campaign, local officials have allowed full stadiums in every nfl venue. thus, despite the delta variance still remaining a threat, the united states 7 day average for co, with 19 cases, this just over 130000. i think we're certainly at more risk this year than we put ourselves in last year. i mean, just look at all different things that we're doing differently from last year at this time. so i definitely say the risk is up for everybody. you know,

it's just it be very disappointing to miss games. you know, you feel like you've done everything right. but it's just kind of our realities while you have on the solemn cup of an american soil for just the 2nd time until the custody of finland, who is playing in the event for the 1st time. this puts on the 18th green ohio to ohio to win her singles much and the point her team needed to obtain the title you're going on to beat the united states 15 to 15 and that's always bought for me. i had about to barbara and london, santa thank you very much for that. and that is it for this news. our remember the you can get the laser and all the stories that we've been falling on our web site. there it is. and of course, our top story, the taliban has finally announced the new government, more details in just a few minutes.
