is happier than a fisherman with a net full of pulse crew are to look thanks to me. he's on a video cool with his wife to tell her about his promotion. ah, captain. ash hale sat space to deliver your vision. ah! we are digging. i would own grapes, the grave is warnings from the un chief and tony the terrace, and other world leaders at the opening of a crucial climate summits. it's one minute to midnight on that doomsday clock, and we need to act now. ah, bill again, i am peter toby, you're watching al jazeera is extended coverage of the cop 26 summits in scotland. the leader of the world's top single greenhouse emitter. china is among those who

are not attending. and cop 26 comes off the back of a g 20 meeting that was lukewarm on climate commitments. ah. you in chief antonio terrace, declaring the world is quotes, digging its own grey was he and other worldly does to live at stark warnings to open the cop 26 climate summit. 130 world leaders have gathered in glasgow for what's described as a make or break moment for the fight to contain global warming. mr. gutierrez said, commitments from government so far, just aren't solid enough. i would addiction to force him. fools. is pushing humanity to the body. we face a stark choice, either we stop it or it stops us. and it's time to say enough

in us of boot, the lising biodiversity, in classes killing ourselves with carbon. enough of tea thing. nature like a toilet enough of burning and drilling and minding our way deeper. we are digging our own graves. the longer we fail to act, the worse it gets. and the higher the price when we are eventually forced by catastrophe to act because humanity has long since run down the clock on climate change. it's one minute to midnight on that doomsday clock and we need to act. now. if we don't get serious about climate change to day, it will be too late for our children to do so. to morrow. well, we also heard from the prime minister of barbados, a country on the front line of climate change. for those who are wise to see for

those who have is to listen and for those who have a heart to fear 1.5 is what we need to survive to degrees. yes, sd is a death sentence for the people of antigua and barbara for the people of them all these people have dominique her and she g for the people of kenya and mozambie. and yes, for the people of some more. and barbados. we do not want that dreaded death sentence mom at at oh, is live for a single hours. go with the latest mom in a sense of urgency there, from the speakers that we've been hearing from so far. indeed, pretty strong. an impassioned speeches from the world leaders and activists that have spoken so far with some of the strongest speeches coming from the host, the,

the, the u. k. prime minister, boys, johnson, as well as the sector general of the united nations, antonio, good tennis at. we've seen them talking about how i didn't, it's easy to deal with the climate crisis and using words like future generations will not forgive us if we fail to act in glasgow of course. but delegates some of what with his picking to have been telling us that they would know whether glasgow would succeed or fail from at the temple set by speeches like that given by the prime minister of the united kingdom. and the 6th general of the united nations. and so far, they seemed to be living up to expectations in building the temple towards getting an agreement and agreement to put a cup on global warming and ensure that the world deals with it. but we also sold some management of expectations and particularly with her a,

the sort of general talking about if we fail to reach our goal in cop 26 than every nation should not wait for 5 years, but rather examine at what it is actually doing. in terms of a tackling climate change and ensure that, that they do that every year until there are no subsidies on fossil fuels. and every other little thing that has been proposed in, not only these but past summits come to pass and get implemented. and of course, the one major issue is going to be funding for at the least developed countries who have contributed very little to global warming, but are facing the huge problems when it comes to climate change. they're actually on the front lines. and 12 years ago they were promised $100000000000.00 in funding

to try and de companies that, that, that was, that the embodiment and up until now now, but has not been done. and now the goal has been shifted to us. 2023. they say is when they will get that money. many of the african and asian leaders were present the and also small islands that are facing extinction at really one ah, shouting loudly from the rooftops, la, they need to get this funding. i gently, the next keynote speaker, we're waiting for mo, is the u. s. president joe biden? clearly, is anyone there speculating or are there any rumors about what we might be hearing from? because of course, his predecessor, donald trump, walked away from the paris climate agreement 6 years ago. oh, well yes or by than is seen by many here, some sort of a hero. trump walked away from the putty segment. he returned to the united states

to the climate negotiations. so many people are looking at him favorably. but again, he is up against a huge bit of crescent in the united states. and many of the delegates with is picking 2 are telling us that it is you may not get exactly the commitments that they want to hear from the united states, from by them at the moment. but his speech is one that is much awaited at this summit. mo, thank you very much, my widow there, join his life from cop 26 in glasgow. hey, let's look at the best and the worst when it comes to greenhouse gas emissions. china pumps out more than $14000000000.00 tons of carbon dioxide, methane and other gas is into the atmosphere every year. that's more than all the developing countries put together. overall join our accounts. we're on 27 percent of global emissions followed by the u. s. india, b, e, u and indonesia. although the u. s. in europe have been the worst polluters

historically on the other end, bhutan and sort of nom, they say they've managed to become carbon negative liberia. her struggle to deal with environmental challenges, the 2020 environmental performance index ranked at the worst performing country when it comes to sustainability. nick hark reports now from the outskirts of the capitol monrovia. it is deep in liberia as guinea in forest regions that samuel dory comes to mourn his friends inside these coffins is maria. the farmer grieves if the pasture, renee, the village shopkeeper, the cause of their death, samuel says, is the nearby rubber plantation of the tire manufacturing company. firestone, a long hill. it started with a coffee, says doorway accuses the company of toys and the water they used for drinking. informing what i did by her story hiscock and robert bringing air and water pollution. i'm feeling hurt. these are my citizens. it was,

i am very angry. i keep saying it over and over, the government doesn't care about it yesterday since revenue, you see the destruction our below. this is not supernatural law destruction, but from debt to water was the government knows of firestone is exploiting only a 5th of the 10000 square kilometer land concession, but it is expanding as the 99 year government lease was renewed in 2005. the company is clearing large parts of liberia as guinea in forest reaching home to where species of animals like the pig, me, hippo, and western chimps. their habitat is under threat environmental as say the rivers are contaminated with heavy metals, killing aquatic life. i'll. this is supposed to be the lungs of west africa, but right here in the firestone concession, the air is thick with chemicals. it stings the eyes. now in the statement firestone says it's doing all it can to mitigate the effect of climate change. and it is

sticking to the current librarian laws to protect the environment. labyrinth rents at the bottom of the environmental performance index with researcher saying that the countries behind its regional peers, particularly in protecting the biodiversity, ensuring habitat conservation, and preventing climate change. who are poor little who are all of the industrial. what, bottom family, who have the, the grid up potential to destroy our, if it is not us. and then when you make a report and think that we are doing less, what are you doing you another more as well? i bear is poor and indebted government has given almost half of the country's land in concession stewed, multinational companies in order to repay its debt to international creditors. these companies are exploiting the countries rich natural resources and displacing tens of thousands of people in the process. most are making the country's capital their home. faced with this influx authorities are unable to manage the expanding

slums. in clear, the mounting waste. with a capital barely one meter above sea level, the rising ocean is now destroying their homes. for liberians, there is no escape from the effect of climate change. doorway sees in this coffins a reminder for future generations of what caused his friends death at home and the pollution that can no longer be ignored or destroying the lives of so many nicholas hawk al jazeera and by monrovia. well, at the other end of the spectrum, denmark is considered to be the greenest country in the world. either jolla nielsen from danish sustainability group state of green tells us why this has been 50 is in the making all of that in the winter of 7374. when we had the big world crisis in the world, denmark, we're importing 99 percent of the time. so it was really is something that hit us really hot. so what the political world,

it was that out of that consensus that we must do something about that to be independent of what comes from job site. so what's happened was that we've had interview agreements in parliament ever since. and we have programs that promoted a green solutions and it means that today we have a leading power within the energy efficiency. and also within the wind, 6 of course 12 minutes past the hour. let's wrap up some other top stories. so either we'll discuss 5000000 recorded code 19 deaths, less than 2 years after the pandemic was declared. plots and lens lives kill more than 100 people in the power will have the latest on the rescue efforts. ah,

ah, look forward to burritos guys. with the sponsored by counsel airways, it is dry and i in viet nam in cambodia louse and didn't lose on the rains. are moving sites with the sun, they should do it seasonally correct. they're ires. a concentration has been flooding recently in west bornea down through santa away in west and java and in sumatra. and the chances i will see more flooding is result of this concentration of heavy rain, which extends into the science of thailand, le, malaysia and singapore. for the north, it looks seasonally correct, for the most part, not very cold in northern parts of china or mongolia. it is probably wrecked for the science of both religion. and also, i know we've seen 2 and a half times the average rate for october, and now we're in november. is still raining. it shouldn't be. this should be a dry times. that's unseasonal rain. this is a bit more normal in the south rest monsoon has gone,

science officially now disappeared. so it is ne msp, but usually brings right down through the coast. father of magic or dash and dance was towel, nodded. and sir lancaster, you see the rain comes further in london that, that a warnings. yes to the east coast. the drain does extend beyond that. and there's a hint of a forming circulation here in some parts of northern indian ocean. otherwise it's quanta, nor there more shout, really from the pole is dry here to oh, the weather. sponsored by casara, always indonesia, the country with an abundance of results for the trade. already won indonesia, his friends for me, we moved full to grow and france. we balance for green economy, blue economy, and the digital economy with the new job creation law, indonesia is progressively ensuring the policy reform to create quality jobs, investment. let it be part linda. this is growth and progress. invest indonesia now

ah ah, or the mac, you're watching al jazeera, i'm piece adobe. here in doha, your top stories, the u. k. prime minister has worn fellow leaders. humanity has run down the clock long enough on climate change. or as johnson is hosting the cop 26, un, 17 glasgow. where is hope new solid commitments be made on reducing heat trapping. emissions being chief and tony to cherish also spoke with the opening of the summit, wanting the world is digging its own grave. he added the promises made so far by governments black credibility. so those are the dire warnings. but there are also

been some messages of hope. the environmentalists, the david arkenberg issued a rallying call reminding leaders of what can be achieved if they work together. if working apart, we are forced powerful enough to destabilize our planet. surely working together. we are powerful enough to save it. in my life time, i've witnessed a tenable decline. yours. you could and should witness a wonderful recovery. that desperate home, ladies and gentlemen delicate. actually, this is why the world is looking to you and why you are here. thank you. why?

we are the big story to day 5000000 people have no died from coven 19 at number comes from johns hopkins university. however, the world health organization is estimating the actual figure could be almost 3 times higher than that higher than the figure. the health authorities are suggesting the virus was 1st identified in the chinese city of who hand in december of 2019, almost 250000000 infections have since been reported globally. in a statement, the un secretary general antonio terrorist said, this devastating milestone remind, reminds us that we are feeling much of the world. while wealthy countries are rolling out 3rd doses of the curve, 19 vaccine, only about 5 percent of people in africa are fully vaccinated. this is a global shame is priyanka grouped up people gasping for air. families torn apart, and governments forced to close borders and order. millions of people to be confined to the helms. the coven 19 pandemic,

have now killed more people than any other viral epidemic in the 21st century. but almost 2 years since the 1st case emerged in china's won province, and a new current of virus spread rapidly across the globe. effective vaccines, developed at a record pace seemed to be having some impact at the moment that average number of daily deaths worldwide is lower than what we were seeing last year. and a lot of that could be attributed to a combination of vaccination. people understanding how cobit in fixed people and what they have to do to control it. but in russia which produced the world's 1st domestically developed over 900 job, many people are reluctant to take it. and that's leading to a record number of deaths. and after the initial optimism of a last vaccine rule out in the u. k. are the parts of western europe and china

infections arising. it'll be very interesting to see what happens in, in the northern hemisphere as by and large, many countries have no restrictions at all. now and back things, obviously the whole population is not vaccinated and, and as they go into winter, people are closing the windows and doors. and there's a higher risk of transmission in both households and businesses and social social settings. so i think where we're about to learn a lot and that is how much we can rely on the vaccine on to why richard nations are racing to give booster shots. poor countries, particularly in africa, are struggling to get supplies of maxine leaving millions of people, fundable conflict and poverty have already devastated healthcare systems in syria. yemen, haiti, a democratic republic of congo,

which has yet to vaccinate even 5 percent of the populations. the lack of vaccination in the poor world has a huge impacted 2 ways for a star. many, many people are dying to day that don't need to die. getting very, very sick and losing relatives. we still have a situation where nurses and doctors in some of these countries are not even protected against this kinda disease. the pandemic seems far from over. but some countries like australia, talent, and can bodya, are preparing for a new way of life. reopening their economies with more vaccines and fewer restrictions bianca got their, i'll dizzier to nepal now, which is struggling after several days of flooding and devastating landslides, while than $100.00 people have been killed and homes and crops have been destroyed . excellency, landslides are more common in the himalayan region, as rains become more intense and glaciers melt in bas ravi has more now from one of

the very areas that's been affected by patty. i want to start by giving you sort of a broad sense of what it looks like here on the ground where east have cut my do about 2 hours and send to paul cha, district. and i just want to give you a sense of what it looks like. you're right now. we're just going to zoom in here and i want to show you the river valley basin here. now all the areas that you see, the gravel bed, the gray rubble and sand, that whole space, right there was covered in water up until a few days ago. now what we're seeing here, all of that, that was, that is now grey, sandy rebel used to be rice, patty, field. all that's left now is that small green space of farmland that we see in frame. now everything else was washed away by the flood waters. now, what this represents is a loss of economic income for the people who live in areas like this all across the country. it represents a loss of food security,

those for agricultural crops that will grow not just to be sold, but to be consumed by these local communities. we have a more than 100 people dead on the new policy side of the border from these floods . another $100.00 plus deaths on the indian side of the border. this is affected the country in almost every region that we can think of. and it's not just a $150.00 dead and or missing. there's bridges that have been destroyed, at least 5000 building structures, homes, roads, land slides are now threatening people's lives and livelihood. greece is registering nearly 400 microns rescued from a turkish flank. cargo ship portrait sent out a distress signal off the coast of crete. it was allowed to duck on the island of cos on sunday. athens has now accused anchor violating a deal to stop migrants crossing to the islands. greece is one of the main routes into europe for asylum seekers arriving from turkey. the media,

i couldn't jimmy lie and other pro democracy to this have gone on. try the hong kong, mr. lion to others. a pleaded not guilty to charges relating to their involvement in a band gathering. last year. they attended a vigil commemorating the $198910.00 amend square massacre. police bound the annual event because of the pandemic. but critic say that was a ploy to silence critics following anti government protest in 2019 japan's prime minister for me. because shita has declared victory after his ruling coalition won a majority in sundays national elections because she said his liberal democratic party has won a very tough election after the party held on to their single party majority. because she took off his less than a month ago. al jazeera is celebrating its 25th anniversary jamal l. sheil takes a look back at the history of the media network and the obstacles endangers. it's based on the time of its launch. in 1996, audra 0 was seen by many as merely a drop in

a media ocean dominated by mostly western news channels and outlets. 25 years later, that drop has caused ripples the world over forcing a synonymy of change across the globe. before al jazeera launch, the arab world enjoyed little if any media freedom citizens from iraq to martine. you were told what to think and say, through state own channels that focused on glorifying their leaders, whilst ignoring the concerns of ordinary people. but when the channel began broadcasting under the slogans of the opinion and the other opinion and the voice of the voiceless, it's on the respect and recognition of millions and it's viewership rocketed. while most media outlets were embedded with american and british forces during the occupation of iraq odyssey were reported, the otherwise untold story of the human cost of the war as it had done before. and i've got to stand. but this came at a heavy price. odyssey ra journalists were injured, arrested,

and even killed. among them thought of a you who was killed by us strike on the capital. baghdad illegally occupied palestine al jazeera has always been present. it's cameras, broadcasting the daily struggles of palestinians living under is radio occupation. correcting a narrative that had previously failed to tell that side of the story killed by the israeli army. from the 2nd intifada to the attack on an 8th flotilla headed to the besieged gaza strip. and until the recent war in 2021, the network has reported the story from all sides and angle. again, this resulted in its offices in gaza, being bombed this time by the israeli army, live on t v in early 2011. and that's where the muscle being the voice of the voiceless crystallized, are a capital off. the arab capital erupted with anger and millions of people took to the streets, demanding freedom, justice and a better life. these are the people i'll do. 0 was on the ground reporting live

while local, regional, and even some international channels failed to acknowledge the historic protests that became known as the arab spring. all the while the network remained loyal to its other motto, giving era time to everyone, including the regimes that were cracking down on their own people. in 2017, and a testament to how influential al jazeera had become a blockade on that, that was imposed by egypt, saudi arabia, bar crane, and the united arab emirates, they insisted the channel must be shut down for the blockade to be lifted. a demand rejected by cutters leader whose country hosts the network. so you're not going to shut down. i'll just know when the country's ruler sticking to the commitments made by his father on the day the channel was launched back in 1996 and rest assured the channels freedom will not be restricted politically. it'll be a platform for every opinion. what started off as an arabic language channel 25

years ago is now a global media networks that includes 5 different channels. several websites and a plethora of digital platforms, all have cemented themselves as leaders in their field. all of them seeking the human story and striving to speak truth to power. a quarter of a century has passed and what was once described by form, adrian dictates office. nemo bought it as a tiny much box is now a global media empire whose flame continues to burn as a beacon of free press in a region that has never needed. it's more dramatic, y'all, jazeera doha finally, as well. leaders negotiates at that cop 26, thomas in gloves. good. they are. and a growing pressure from young voices demanding action. al jazeera spoke to, some of them is what they said. hi, i'm an augusta off. i'm 11 years old and i live in go about india. there was

a huge lodge, were villages and villagers. there were washed away so so many of the vehicles and houses were destroyed. so people are dying because of climate change. i think people my age, they are being heard by the government and by adults do. so i think young people like me, they're using social media. do you know, raise awareness and contribute so hi. hello. my name is marissa pull. i saw them pin. i'm a high school student at home. my grandparents told me this. it used to be land with the lodge community where it was a prosperous community with lots of merchant boots for many countries called her home. but as time passed and the land has a rooted bear, people have had to move further inland. when my family used to live right here,

next to the temple. but we have had to move from my my is another. i'm for a senior souls and i live in argentina, valera, i think young people are not being listened enough by adults. and i also think that a young people need help from adults when it comes to changing some bad habits. i would say the word slithers about climate change until them that we should, warren every one and remind them constantly of the big problem. this is my name is maya, i am 10 years old and i live in london the times now to make big changes and improvements to what we do normally to actually control climate change. we're running out of time when to do it now. otherwise, you probably never will. we have no planet b, and this is our home. so you wouldn't take care of it because we're kind of stuck here forever. so if it's light trash, then what are we going to do then? my name is sped malcolm moses. i am 12 years old. i live in a blue jack the cap,

so of named you yeah. in my state of origin which is kind of yeah, the serious case of climate change, leg droughts and flood which is affecting food production. the adults had the one class in problems by building fat trees polluted the air, and it is a very helpful my message to the world leaders hold in this meeting is that any decision di meter dick would affect my to morrow? i old they'll make a decision. dow was saved the world's future. the next generation is consonant them . ah exactly half past the are. these are your top.
