now made clear that he will continue the policies instituted by his predecessor, in particular that agreement that was reached in january last year. the so called phase one agreement, in terms of which china made certain commitments which president biden says, he is now going to insist that china meets also staying in place. so others trade tariffs that president trump, then president trump imposed no sign that the u. s. administration is going to change that there despite repeated calls from a number of businesses who are believe i'd be suffering from that particular trade tariff, a policy that was instituted by the trump administration. so very important though, from both leaders to keep the lines of communication open to avoid any of misunderstandings as it is put that might occur. the un secretary general has demanded evidence from ethiopia. either it's expulsion is 7 un staff on misconduct

7 degrees above average still, but it is cooling down last year because this injection moisture means is more cloud in the sky and rain from shanghai down to hong kong. it's now dry and beijing and temperatures here about where they should be. and the revolving storm here in the sea of japan is like to bring the rain to hawkeye. auto norton han chip is not significant. is left the korean peninsula to drive the few on shore showers. things don't change very much on friday except this orange street k, which is heavy rain on its way to hong kong for a big circulation. the sas trying to see which will bring more flooding to viet nam, that'll stretch in lands as well. thank you, allows me to cambodia and still potential more flooding. i think in the philippines and look at what's happening in the philippines. see, want to watch in case it turns into anything significant shouts for the sas. there's a necessity really are rather more scattered, but they're still significant if you're underneath them. that the monsoon trough is officially stopped to return our parts of rochester and our bone drive,

ah. hello, you're watching out his ear. i'm emily angland, a reminder of an up stories. this album, at least 20 people have been killed in an earthquake that has struck a southern pakistan. hundreds more have been injured. the quake had initially registered in magnitude 5.4, but was late a revised up to magnitude 5.7. the world health organization has endorsed the 1st vaccine to prevent malaria. it's recommended the job be rolled out to millions of children across africa and peruse. president has replaced the prime minister just 2 months after guido, by edo took office. the left, as politician, has been accused of sympathizing with the rebel fighters and arrived when congress opposed to nationalisation plans. former president of congress motive, as kids, has been named for the job. there are growing calls to ban offshore

oil exploration of southern california. after a major oil spill from a pipeline lake, more than half a 1000000 laces have spilled into the oceans in saturday. it's believed to ship the anchor may have hit the underwater pipeline residency and the worst depicted city of huntington beach have filed a lawsuit, claiming loss of income and exposure to toxins. the cities mer says the beaches may be closed for months. as the clean up continues for more on this story, john amos joins us. he's the president of sky truth and environmental watchdog. and is it in at santa fe, new mexico? hello there, john. can you explain why in 2021. it took 12 hours for the national center for oil spills to be notified of the lake and how crucial were those hours. hello, emily and thank you for asking about this method of time gap. that is

really hard to explain what part of the reason may be because of the 1st reports of this bill happened very late friday evening and in the early hours and saturday morning. and perhaps people are not in a position to respond more quickly. so, but we also understand that the company that operates the pipeline had instrumentation that alerted them of a pressure drop in the pipeline. yet it took several hours for them to shut down the pipeline so that no new oil was flowing into it. and then even some hours after that, before state and local officials were notified that this was happening. john, where does the accountability line? is it with the ship that dropped its anchor or the pipeline operator or the side reaction of the authorities? well for me, the, the, the company bears the primary responsibility, but again,

they had instrumentation that apparently indicated to them. they had a problem with the pressure in the pipeline. and it took a few hours before they took action, according to reports that i've seen, that to stop the flow of oil in that pipeline. but if indeed the, the damage to the pipeline was caused by a ship, saker, and that is still under active investigation. then we need to find out why that happened. and one of the concerns that this incident raises is the very close proximity of oil and gas hardware platforms and pipelines out in the ocean. very close proximity to busy port and busy shipping operations where cargo ships and tankers that are hundreds of meters long are operating. and that's a recipe for disaster. john, i want to get to how we can avoid this situation going forward. but 1st,

we know that there's been widespread damage because of this late. can you explain just how bad the impact has been on the environment? i think that remains to be seen and we know from past oil spills. but the damage can be very difficult to measure and can be a very long term problem. certainly after the b p deep water horizon, spill, researchers found the evidence of oily material on the sea floor over a wide area that was still affecting the ability of marine life at the base of the food chain in the ocean to recover years later. that's also been the case for the exxon valdez still, where oil is deeply embedded in the sediment and toxins from that oil are still entering the food chain and pairing the ability of marine life and coastal life to recover. so i think that may be the situation here with the reports that oil

actually came ashore and penetrated some of the coastal wetlands. i think we're going to be seeing signs of damage to the ecosystem for a long time to come. that is a traveling thought. so how do we avoid this going forward? is the only solution renew renewable energy? well, i think clearly that is the direction that we need to head up. because if this incident shows one thing it's, it's that human error will continue to be a problem. no matter how good our technology gets, humans are always in the loop and we tend to screw things up every now and then. so as long as our society continues to be so dependent on oil as a source of fueling our economy and ours and our lifestyle, these accidents will continue to happen. that's a guarantee. so the only real solution is to just hasten the transition and level

of our ability to move to the next era of energy. sure, humanity really embrace renewables as the solution to this problem for the long term. while we appreciate your insights, john amos is the president of sky truth and environmental watchdog. thank you for your time. thanks for having me here. a drug trade is blaming in the ant, contain his slums. there's been a rise in threats and shootings over the past year. now the government is sending federal forces into the problem areas, which is me, one of the countries in busiest ports to raise the bar reports from the city of rosie arrow. oh, it's become one of the most dangerous cities in argentina reciting. nearly 300 kilometers northwest of when a site is shootings have become an everyday occurrence as gangs battle each other to control the drug. trade is a more feminine all american lawyer. we just received a call that
