every year for millions of years, decades of talk, but little action, it's all about distract, create confusion to crate, smoke and mirrors. the shocking truth about how the climate debate has been systematically supported. the oil industry was a main bank roller or opposition to clock back to campaign against the climate. do you think that's a bad thing? more shoot you did was here's the thing. absolutely. on. on jesse. ah, you 20 late is agree to take stronger action to tackle climate change, but it failed to set specific targets. and so the state is now set for cop 26 with governments want. this is their last chance to avoid a climate catastrophe. ah . hello and kim all santa maria here in doha. this is the world news from al

jazeera south africa is holding local elections and a vote seen as a big test for the ruling agency party. and some emotional reunion that sidney ab court, a stretcher reopens its international borders for the 1st time in the corona virus . and ah, so there's a choice, a, the act now on climate change will pay a much higher price later. that warning, coming from italy's prime minister as the g 20 summit wrapped up in rome, ladies agreed to keep global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius. but they weren't able to commit on how to achieve. net 0 carbon emissions by the year 2050. and with the u. s. u n, the climate conference now went away in glasgow. environmentalists had hoped for a bigger break through here is this report from adam rainy. on the final day of the

g. 20 summit leaders from the world's biggest economies visit one of rooms, most famous tourist sites. trevi fountain, its beauty was one. they all could agree on more difficult, was hammering out a concrete plan to tackle the climate crisis. the final communique characterized by compromise and vague language stated that member countries are committed to reaching net 0 emissions or carbon neutrality by or around mid century. they did agree to stop funding the building of coal plants and poor countries. they set no target. however, for phasing out domestic coal use, the italian prime minister who hosted the summit, tried to focus on what he saw, a success summary sheet deep in this sense. so deep. we managed to keep our dreams alive, to commit to further measures and gigantic allocations of money further pledges of reductions. and that's the success given that in recent months, it seemed that the emerging countries in particular,

had no intention of making the commitment on british prime minister boss johnson was clearly disappointed for the groups failure to make more ambitious commitments . the solution to climate change is clear. it lies in consigning dirty fossil fuels like co to history in ditching gas guzzling modes of transport. and recognizing the role that nature plays in preserving life on this planet. leaders acknowledged the need to close the cobra, 1900 vaccine gap by helping to boost supplies with the goal of vaccinating 70 percent. the world's population by mid 2022. important talks took place on the sideline sunday. us president joe biden highlighted the environmental benefits of a deal. he announced with the e u that wrote back trump era tariffs on steel and aluminum. the united states, as your opinion, have agreed to negotiate the roles 1st trade grant based on how much carbon is in

a product. environmental groups are concerned that if the g 20 a group of 19 countries in the e, you can't make binding commitments, it will be even tougher for delegates from 200 countries. now meeting in class, go to agree on concrete steps to keep global warming at 1.5 degrees celsius, trying to say that's needed to virt the worst projections of climate disaster. adarine algebra, rome. so that's the g 20 summit wrapped up. and as we mentioned earlier, the focus now turns to the you ends a cop 26 climate talks in glasgow. our environment is ethnic clock is there. they were hoping that they would use the g twins uses spring board of momentum into cult 20, say something. everybody's very disappointed with it is give it some perspective. so you had the parents group back in 2015, where the world agreed to keep the temperatures from rising be on 2 degrees celsius, ideally one and a half to re celsius. 6 years old. we now know that due to results is too much

already at $1.00 day, $1.00. and already we've seen catastrophic, extreme weather, especially this year. so for the g, 20 to graph to acknowledge that 1.5 is the target is a good thing, but it doesn't have enough half. what were the words urging meaningful and effective action? but agreeing few specific measures. i spoke to one observer here and she said that if the g 20 was meant to be address rehearsal, the cop 26 and they fluffed their lines. so as well, lead is shift their attention from the g 20 and others around the world joined them . here in glasgow over the next couple of days, you can be sure that the developing nations will be exerting as much pressure as possible for the leaders, especially of the big mrs. to up their commitments. well, the poor relations the well, they're looking to cult 26, looking to this conference for world leaders for nations around the world as a step up their action and help them out to help developing countries. some thoughts not from chandler bush on who is the ceo of i forest. that is the

international forum for environment sustainability and technology. he told us climate change bus now dominates international politics. it has to be right, give the top of their gender for everybody, simply because climate change is going to impact ball would be hunger, development, all the issues that we get about last year. india for example. last it be 7000000000 dollar 3.25 percent of b, because the climate impacts these numbers are even higher for some of the african countries. so if they do not address climate change, we will have more hunger, more poverty and development. it has to be right at the top of the agenda. where do we get investments? where do we get money in developing countries to move to green economy? now that's where i think developed countries will have to cross the eye and they have not done enough on climate finance. they do not want to discuss lawson damage and the $100000000.00. you know, that is

a very small amount of money oriented countries have a population of about 1500000000. $100000000.00 means that every person in oil is going to contribute just a dollars every year on climate finance. i'm sure they can afford more to save the planet and therefore, the finance deal is going to be very, very important than glasgow. and my hope is that developed countries including bodies johnston, who was so who so concerned about jay's bill up the time. good. and it's much ambitious finance to be like gospel. well, one of the world leaders who won't be in glasgow is the chinese president. she jin ping, china is the world's was police her, and the biggest consumer of coal, but also the heaviest investor in renewable energy. let's talk to katrina you in beijing about this. so he's not going. i believe there was talk of a video link,

but now maybe even that's not happening. shipping is expected to address the cob 26 summit by video link as he did during the g 20 as well. president she didn't pick, has not traveled since the beginning of the current of virus outbreak earlier last year. but that stamp and a lot of herbs, china will make further concessions when it does come to climate change. now, that doesn't mean that has been no movement or china's climate and voice should. and while has said that china is making all efforts to increase the likelihood that it can meet its climate targets. cheating thing himself has spoken widely, most recently at a by diversity conference about the need to invest more in wind solar hydropower. china is also investing in nuclear energy expanding the building of nuclear power plants as well. and there has been a recognition at the highest levels in china that a lot of these natural disasters,

flooding and drought that we have seen that have recovered on many chinese provinces this year are related to climate change. and of course, at the moment the big issue to look at there is china is going through a power crisis nationwide. there have been blackouts in many factories, many cities simply because there isn't enough coal to go around. and this is a main energy source here in china, of course, and this has had a devastating effect on productivity leaders. a word about social stability. this is how to to fold impact, really when it comes to climate change here in china. it's been good and bad. the bad is that china as a result of this power shortage. i said it will commit to building more coal fired power plants in the near future. so dozens more co 5 ponds as well as importing more coal until 2025 when china said it will peak its coal usage. that's the bad. now the good thing however, is that this power shortage has resulted in this tectonic shift here in china. on october 12,

the chinese government announced that will remove caps on the cost of cold. china is a plant economy, and the reason it relied so much in colds that there was a limit on how much cold could cost. but that that limit is removed. this will mean that renewable sources of energy will be much more competitive and much more appealing. and this has been a huge groove. and amazon, i've spoken to said it is very positive. now they say overall, the direction that china is moving in is very positive. they don't really have qualms about the overall direction. what is a problem, however, is the speed at which china is moving currently with those targets in mind, to be called the neutral 2060 pekin carbon. by 2030, we will not be able to achieve this limit of temperature rises of 1.5 degrees celsius by the end of the century, because she will not be attending call 26 this week that is further damp. and any hopes that china will be making any further concessions. that's katrina you're reporting from beijing. thank you. katrina,

on to other news and yemen. information minister says who the rebels have killed a number of civilians in the city of moderate says 29 people were injured or died in an air strike. that's after saudi state. media reported the saudi led coalition and killed these 218 days in m. r. e been the past 3 days. that it is began the push to take control of the oil rich province back in september. murray is the last stronghold of the international recognized government. now the u. n. chief is calling on sedans generals to reverse the takeover of power. this is the day after hundreds of thousands of people rallied to denounce the military rule. the sudanese teaches a committee is also called for a strike in all states. have morgan has worn out from cotton where on one of the main roads in sedan capital and central business district. and normally on a normal day around this time, which is mid afternoon in hot, assume the roads are jammed with stars and the shops are open. and that's because this road connects to many state institutions and many banking institutions in the

reverse, to take over power a day after hundreds of thousands of people rally to denounce military rule. polls have just opened in south africa, the local elections, the votes set to be the toughest contest yet for the ruling african national congress passing. in fact, life pictures here. if a voting appalling session, i'm sorry, in the capital johannesburg, some polls suggest the a, c will win less than half of the vote for the 1st time and may lose control some of the kind of some of the country's largest municipalities. and facing growing discontent, of a rundown infrastructure and social inequality. let's go to the suburb of crypton in johannesburg. find me in a reporting for us the morning for me to expecting a big turn out today. all that is the big question for many of the political parties participating in this election. whether or not people won't turn out to vote, given the number of complaints and disgruntlement,

especially with the african national congress who is governing south africa here in clipton. specifically, it's a, an area in switzer, the oldest township in johannesburg. and during the years of a party, it was sideline, specifically because it was a black township. and now, 27 years into democracy, people here say little has changed and the a and c has done that little to help them. we had a community center which is now a polling station just outside. there's a dirt road to with pot holes. it's a community where there are a number of informal settlements and homes that are a bolt using corrugated iron, a homes that aren't able to accommodate people adequately. also an area where the buckets system for toilets is used, and this has been a particular point of contention during the coven 19 pandemic. when people have been urged to keep a social distance to maintain a certain level of hygiene. and they just don't have that option. that it just some

of the regulations around that haven't been viable and these are the complaints from people that they're neglected. that the governing party specifically doesn't care. and so many people who historically have voted for the agency are now saying enough is enough and they're looking at other options. but they also don't know if the other parties and there are a 1000 parties. i'm on that ballast they're, i've the other parties can provide what they're looking for for me to in the, in the bigger picture i guess, looking at you know, countrywide elections witcher will, will come at some point. how significant are these particular votes? we touched it already, but maybe you can expand a bit more all the certainly would be a precursor to the national elections, especially for the african national congress. you did mention how the a and c had a majority vote in major municipalities and that goes back as far as 2006 in the last elections in to 2016,

they barely got that majority to keep hold of major municipalities and major urban centers. in the country and now analysts say are saying that the agency is likely to not get that 50 percent. and we're looking at potentially a coalition arrangements to ensure they stay in power. it would be a, i think that would be the major thing to look at once the results come out. after polling day, the a and c is in trouble. and this really would be an indication of how the agency could possibly do in national elections. and also would be indicative of perhaps the um, the, the, the, the, how would the people look at the president? so rama pasa and the faith, they have been in as a leader, that is a party that is also struggling with internal politics, internal turmoil, and factionalism. a party that is divided and they are having those problems already. and if voter turnout is low, the

a and c stands to lose the power it already has with some of the smaller parties, perhaps gaining a some momentum or, you know, gaining greater ground in terms of the outcomes from these local elections. but from it miller in johannesburg on local election day in south africa. thank you from japan's governing parties to fight expectations, holding onto a strong majority in parliamentary elections, their prime minister for me from the sheet. as the liberal democratic party lost 15 states, its popularity hit by a sluggish economy in a slow pandemic recovery, but enough to win. and the vote was seen as a key test. casita who took office less than a month ago. of mcbride has more on that from the l. d. p. 's point of view, the probably the more important number is that on their own, they have 261 seats, which is what's called an absolute majority, a stable majority in the lower house. it means that with that number of seats that

can keep control of the chairs of all of the important house committees that pass the legislation. so it's much easier for them to govern, to pass laws. a very good result, of course, because she that he had come to power under a something of a cloud. he is not a very charismatic leader to say the least. he is not the 1st choice of rank and file l d p. members. he was seen as having being foisted upon them by the party elders. this obviously helped him now cement his position as a long term prime minister i. but this is also being said not so much of the victory for the l. d p. as also at the, the, the failure once more of japan's opposition. this campaign has been completely dominated by the pandemic. and the impact on the economy not to shita has promised a big stimulus package to try to get the economy moving again, as certainly an expectation of that to business is responded positively. the nick a index jumped by 2 percent when it opened on monday. but he has an awful lot of

work to do at to try to counter the, at the disapproval of, of the, the government, and also of his predecessor prime minister suga for their handling goers. many people see the mishandling of the pandemic of pushing ahead with a controversial tokyo olympics despite the very limited economic gain. and in fact, seeing in the aftermath of that a spike in cobit numbers around at tokyo. for the 1st time in a few months fully vaccinated, australians have been allowed to return home without having to quarantine scenes of joy sydney, airport, of loved ones embraced each other again. strict porter restrictions which have been in place since the start of the pandemic have lived many a straight and stranded overseas. so far, only these trailing capital territory, new south wales, and victoria, lifting their restrictions more from sir o'clock in brisbin. i would say an emotional thing that see the import this morning with families have been able to reunite now. the borders were closed in march last year and that more than 18

months. and so many australians i play around who he felt the strain and having stranded overseas and that was of the international voters being closed and kept put on flight. the number of passengers retained to run, you know, that made it difficult to get a seat. number one, and then you had the compounding issue of the expensive hotel contain cost, so it would be affordable for the people to get home. on monday, the national board had been reopened to kept to be listed on the plot i t t, which is the capital territory away camber is. we've got new south wells and victoria, and that's where we've got the 80 percent fully vaccination back like right. so i just have been double quite a double back, they have no point team, they can literally land and i can redeem life as normal. now, i should like one thing, the initial plots, the limited to australian permanent residence and immediate family for the be the holders and the temporary residence. they've been left out of this national policy

. so these national travel band has also been lifted out the outbound passages. stallions now don't have to apply for an extension to leave. we have to get request permission until now. so the 2nd stage of the board is reacting that should happen towards the end of the year. and the focus then will be on the international students. and the critical workers are covered using the white house press secretary jen. saki has tested positive, covet 19. she is the highest ranking official at the white house to publicly dispose contracting the virus. thank. he says she had no close contact with president biden or senior staff member since wednesday, saki is vaccinated and symptoms of miles. she says she will work from home until the end of the quarantine period. the french president emanuel micron has told the u. k prime minister that the ball is in britain's court when it comes to the escalating dispute of a fishing rights. they did meet on the side lines of the g 20 in rome, but like the wider summit, failed to reach and agreements more in the support from alexia bron side by side at

rome's famous, trevi fountain, french president, emanuel mackerel, and british prime minister, boris johnson, appeared to be in good humor. but behind the smiles, the escalating tensions between their 2 countries showed no sign of letting up a meeting away from the cameras. failing to bring them closer to agreement, met no, le bow in aff, gone. now the ball is in their court. if the british don't make a move, obviously that measures that a plan from the 2nd of november onwards will have to be put in place because it will be a no girl in funding. the ball is in the written is called frances accused the u. k . of flouncing a post breaks at tre dale by failing to give french fishermen enough licenses to operate in british waters and outlined a series of sanctions if they weren't granted. if the dispute is not resolved by tuesday, france, we'll go ahead with a series of what it's called,

targeted measures at ports like this along the coast. british fishing vessels will undergo stricter security checks and they may not be able to dock to unload their catch. they'll also be longer time consuming health and safety checks for trucks going to or from the u. k. caught up in the debate this british trula. it was seized off the port of last well thursday. it's captain accused of fishing and french waters without a lie central, but you don't know when you're kind of the company that owns the boat says it's being used as a porn, and the dispute, the british prime minister, has said the seizure wasn't what he'd expect from a close friend and ally that it's up to france to step back from its threats on fish. i got to tell you that the police, the position is, is unchanged. and i will, i'll just, i'll just, i'll just say this for the, for the record. i must, i was puzzled to read a letter from the french prime minister explicitly asking for britain to be

punished for leaving the you and i are just have to take say to really, i don't believe that that is compatible either with the the spirit or the letter of the withdrawal agreement relations between the u. k and france, clearly navigating troubled waters with both sides determined to hold their course . an exuberant al jazeera, paris, brazilian police of chill, 25 suspected bank robbers in an operation targeting violent gangs and trav of grenades. an automatic weapons was also seized, 50 officers involved in that operation which rated to farms where gangs were preparing a tax on local banks. it all ended in a shootouts. now is mexico's day of the dead to approach. as the, as tech marigold is beginning to appear in every household, the flower is linked to pretty hispanic times, but it is still very much present in modern mexico. now flaw farmers are working hard to keep alive. one of the country's most beloved traditions you'll start

getting a basket. so yeah, very good thought i like you that my name is cutting vasquez and once i've been a flower farmer for 30 years, i learned to love them from my grandfather who sold flowers. all of his life. no to this and simple suit, you flower has been used in pre hispanic time. it was placed at and around the altars tonight or the seas loved ones back home. it's a tradition, we have kept that of our departed loved ones coming to visit on the day of that made up on the bottom of the circle. it's culturally relevant. but also this is how we sustain ourselves in our town. and we most of us growth in bus, which you for the, for the be sucked audio for game. it's so feeling to see the grow from the day after day. we get to see how the time grows. yep. it's a beautiful process. we get to witness. that's how we realized the value of our work. then with your customer so happy knowing that the flowers will end on their

home, alter an offering for the loved ones that were meant upon them was like is the feel . now we have her bread, red bread, fruit, apples, tangerine, banana, and whatever. i love ones like the most know so little think this almost up on that a little bit. but when you are setting the on the 31st, because that night is when the children come to visit their family from the 31st to the 1st of november, then the grown ups. this is the 2nd of november. he made this boy that gave them a low for and after that we think company and we, the living end up being all of the offerings of the celebration. ah, it's half past the hour on al jazeera and these are the top stories world leaders meeting at the g. 20 summit in rome. have a great to keep global warming levels at 1.5 degrees celsius,

but they were not able to make a firm commitment on how to achieve net 0 carbon emissions by the year 2050.
