tent, they were sharing on a camping trip in canada and western australia one morning and was missing sparking a nationwide search. a 36 year old man is being questioned by police. ah, one of the top stories on how to 0 iranian officials say, nuclear talks with world powers will resume at the end of this month. iran, deputy foreign minister says tear on his prepared to enter negotiations for us sanctions to be lifted. us state department is welcomed a return to the talks. we believe it remains possible to quickly reach and implement an understanding on a mutual return to compliance with the jcp away. by closing the relatively small number of issues that remained outstanding at the end of june. when the 6 round

concluded, we believe that if the iranians are serious, we can manage to do that in relatively short order. but we've also been clear, including as this pause has dragged on for some time, that this window of opportunity will not be open forever. iran said it foiled an attempt by the u. s. navy to seize its oil in the sea of a man. it says its elite revolutionary guard troops boarded a ship on october. the 25th saying the tanka was about to be taken by the us. and us denied the claims and as acute iran, a staging, dangerous maneuvers at sea, the un has found evidence that all sides of fear appears to be conflict have violated human rights with some possibly amounting to war crimes and crimes against humanity. it describes the conflict as one mark by extreme brutality. war broke out between the government and dig around rebels almost one year ago. results from that

to us states president joe barton in the one in 2020. this good signal trouble for the democratic party heading into next year's congressional ballot. republican glen young can pushed democrats out of the virginia governorship while the reelected democratic governor of new jersey phil murphy fought off a close. i'm expected to challenge united states as added the israeli spyware firms, the n s a group, and can do to its cyber activities, blacklist. the commerce department says it's in response to their role in developing spyware and trafficking, malicious online tools to stay with us on there, if you can, people, and powers up next one use. after that, our goal at al jazeera has always been to expand our reach and improve on what we have to offer. to do that, we've kept pace with how people get their news news strengthen by reporting. that's

hard hitting. when the arab world rose up, you followed a trusted source and we grew with you. over the years, al jazeera digital has been recognized for getting it right. because online innovation has always been key. and that includes new ways of reaching even more people. as we grew, we brought you new shows and more content and when times got tough can turn to us again. so to keep that trust, we've added even more correspondence ah, 25 years of al jazeera, a unique path. always different. always question. governments of known about the causes and consequences of global warming to over 3 decades. but

most of so fall failed to respond effectively to the threat to our planet. as world leaders meet for climate torch in the u. k. journalist amanda barrel has been asking why politicians there and every one of struggles to take decisive action for anyone still in doubt or in denial, but the world's climate is changing. the summer of 2021 should have been a wakeup call. one natural disaster followed another even normally temperate britain thorough check stream whether the q manmade global warming is now

irrefutable. and that's why wildly does the gathering one more to discuss how to respond with things critical that, that the cop 26 summit is taking place here in the u. k. where the industrial revolution began in the 19th century. when fossil fuels math production started releasing rising amount of carbon dioxide and other heat tracking gases in the atmosphere where that might lead didn't become clear for a long time, for at least 30 years. now we've known that unless we would use carbon emission and climate change would have to die consequences. we are now thing for all of us. no matter where we live. i've come to the village of heaven. be in norfolk and i've been told it was a man who's living right on the front line of climate change. and the name of the house gets a clue as to why. hello amanda. this region. oh,

it might look pretty here, but as with many part the well, there's a growing threat from extreme weather and rising sea level since the early 1900 ninety's almost to the beach on the u. k. east coast, having washed away much of a journey, a huge storm and plenty of pain. and that took everything away from underneath. the house was not bad. in fact, i stood in the kitchen i had resuming, cracking my feet, looked down, and i could see the sea. so that's what happened. it's literally that hanging over the edge of the cliff. friends helped lance move his home 10 meters inland and he's built his own c defenses. but these are only temporary measures and it's hard to be optimistic or was a climate change skeptic. like everybody else saying, well, i think living here really opened your eyes. i mean really scary because you don't know what tomorrow's going. ham speed's been a popular holiday spot for over a century. but as it beach diminishes,

so to to it's prospect. people here have had to start preparing for the work. at the local politician tells me we have emergency plans in place, which we never dreamed of doing before. and we have evacuation centers also have you had to evacuate people we have here, but when we evacuate the people we an original for that was for the night. never in our world, a strange did we end up drinking? we would have to demolish 11 or 12 times. the local authorities are discussing building a system of defenses against the encroaching see, but progressive frustratingly slow. and they may not be finished anytime soon. or even be enough. those drop fair fortifications, mild war to which the villages good bear in his hands with satin, selves from the sea and the irony of using those to deal with the emergency. now, i mean, we should be on a wartime footing and they should have been for decades with his own how that people to finally gotten it was happening at hands. b is just one

example of what's going on all over the world. as climate change becomes more noticeable, what thought though is why this country of all countries might be caught unawares. after all, a former british prime minister was one of the 1st politicians to start raising the alarm. it is mankind and his activities, which are changing the environment of our planet in damaging and dangerous wage. over the next 30 years, many other leaders promised action at rio. we have made a start since $995.00. they've been annual un gatherings known as co summit. everybody tried very hard. ah. most famously at one in harrison 2015, nearly 200 countries agreed to limit global temperature rise to 2 degrees celsius above pre industrial levels at most. and ideally 1.5. they also promised to balance

the amount of carbon they produced with that. so what is known as net 0, but promise is that some, it's so easy to make and people will and emissions of how it on rising leaders have made more pledges more promising. there is no planet blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, target. they made the world the come warmer, within tiny foreseeable consequences. we face the possibility of systemic environmental collapse. one or more of the, of systems, sudden the flips from one stable state into a different one. for instance, you know, we can see, and i shelf flipping a basically collapsing into the scene. i'm, when one flipside can trigger a flipping of a load of others. you can get

a cascade of impacts and that's happened during mass extinction events in the past . and, and that's fundamentally what we face or threats, journalists, george mumbo has been campaigning for the environment for 36 years. why does he think we're in this position now? politicians just push everything into the future where it'll be someone else's problem. and if we don't fix things now, well, we're not going to be in office when things goes accosted later on. and so, as every incentive not to deal with the biggest crisis that humanity has ever faced. of course, if every political generation just pos, the buck, the bigger the challenge becomes, in truth fossil fuels and now so intertwined with every aspect of modern life. that reducing our reliance on them means making fundamental and possibly unpopular changes to the way we live. politicians in the u. k. have been reluctant to for

through those changes as anywhere else. jill rutter is the former british civil servants. she was involved in the publication of several sustainable development strategies in the 19 nineties and to thousands. climate change is a really massive problem for government. it requires a whole scale economic transformation, a very short window. so it's a real challenge to make meaningful action across all front civil tenuously. and you tend to get this on line of least resistance. and it's what you can get other people to accept according to the science, even if dramatic action is taken to day. climate change will continue to wasn't for at least a couple more decades. that's not appealing for leaders who depend on public support to stay in power. if you think politician, you are taking quite difficult countries, quite unpopular decisions now for

a benefit, the nor any where you see during your electoral terms, it might not be seen during your political lifetime. would be quite a difficult bridge. yeah, it's a put he oh critic, politician. he's going to say yes, that's my gender. yet some politician has seen electrical advantage in the crisis in 2010. david cummins, conservative party one power in britain after promising to deal with a problem ignored by previous governments. payment cameron decided that he was going to embrace the need to actual climate change and use back of published his strategy of detoxifying and changing people's views about the conservative party. but says rappa and becoming prime minister, come and then booked at the likely economic costs. when he saw the effect of some of the climate change levied on electricity bills. you know, said we're,

we shouldn't have all this. yeah. his chin was green cracked, putting up energy prices and policy. sions have conviction concerts. as a result, a government that promised to be the greenest ever turned out to be at best lukewarm on dealing with climate change. patterns administration did face out coal fired power station and build on work a previous governments by supporting renewable energy. but late to gave the go ahead to the controversial fracking programs. as other governments around the world have found, the reality of facing down opposition from powerful vested interests is challenging . now i would like you to please welcome helen clark and i would have been some years ago in new zealand is a good case in point in 1099, had him clog became prime minister in sustainability, i believe has become the bonding issue of the early 21st century

a government likes that to be one of the 1st anyway to cut copy of the mission museum was one of the very early. busy countries when i was prime minister will say we're going to aim to bait net carver neutral. that was very ambitious time. the full weight of the climate crisis hadn't really dawned on people. if people worry about other folks. and in 2003 cops, government thought to tax the methane emitted by livestock at the diary industry is a significant part of the new zealand economy. this was no small proposal, but some 60 percent. the countries the missions came from animals. i'm reducing that figure with the priority and it is very, very difficult. the agricultural community, lowest of a petition against it was signed by nearly half the country farmers around $400.00, blocked the streets of new zealand, capital, wellington, in protest. the tax was abandoned. we eventually went

for an emissions trading scheme proposal and we made agriculture the last to come in. and then there was a change of government like they never came in. technical climate crisis is a long 10 different i think. what is important for leaders is to recognise that the goal is far more about than just about winning an election. what is the point of winning elections if you don't use the political capital to do the things that need to be done? how many policies are now in office? been reluctant to follow that advice? 2021 un report published ahead of the 26. i'm. it shows that with nations current target the planet is unquote to profit $2.00 degrees celsius above pre industrial level. that would seem to justify determined and effective measures from our government. so why have the still the lie in the way we all respond to anything

other than immediate threat than perhaps political reactions the climate crisis are a matter of psychology. ah, much of our culture is still not paying any attention to obtaining it's not happening. and we see that in some ways all around us. please think about game shows that might focus on long whole flights as a prize that is just denying the reality of carbon intensive practices. and so it almost really chris degree. we're not rational beings, so we don't always respond to the threat international way. but we do is we experience anxiety, but then we try and unconsciously push it out of the way as climate crisis gets closer and closer and maybe we'll do something about it. on the other hand, it's possible that we may engage in more and more district defense mechanisms. all these instincts and emotions that we've been talking about, how do they play out in the political arena?

what we can forget too easily perhaps, is that politicians of whatever stripe, whatever parts here are also human beings. so they're all caught up in the same kinds of processes of everyday denial and defense as me and use the rest of us. for george, mom via the decisions that needs to be made a quite straightforward, but he doesn't think politicians will ever willingly take them eating less, mate flying less, changing the way we travel, insulating our homes consuming less. all those require mobilizing the public and often confronting some revolved, tended susan and politicians don't want to do that. they absolutely don't want to go that they don't want to do anything which people might feel resistant towards. yeah, you know, you tell people we want you to drive your car less and people, some people are going to react to get some it's often left up to local politicians and activists to do the right thing. but even on a much smaller scale on issues that would seem relatively easy to resolve,

there's trying to push through apparently climate from the policies faced many of the same hospitals. so making transport stable is from the keys that need to be taken on the router. net 0. so here in london is a push to encourage cycling. but of course, putting plans into concrete action on the ground can be just happens on, on. i've heard in the usual quiet neighborhood of chic tend to be cycling. i don't think you can ever keep everybody happy, but i have not seen this kind of descent in 21 years. i've never seen this in my life anywhere over anything. honestly. margie free is involved with one check. a local group fiercely opposed to the introduction of 2 way cycle lanes. are group believes that this is not a safe cycle lane. i've seen so many near misses. i can't even tell you, save eliminated the bustling, which now means the buses have to stop all along every car behind it stops idling.

traffic fumes are created by didn't consider myself her a radicals, likeness, and away. i've been radicalized by senior position. i'm hearing a story that it's the death of the village. it's the death of commerce as well. and people need change. you have to leave space for these new new ideas. counsellor hannah con, has already been working on this one small scheme, the 2 years. we have consulted, we have spoken to many residents in many different ways. there are so many angles to look at from businesses to elderly residence. so it's complicated. i mean, the most challenging thing for me is the hostility that we received for divided community. and that's what these low traffic neighborhoods doing. it's all banks. the question, if a modest proposal to expand my claims in one small part of one city can lead to

thought faith argument, where's our guy across from well, can the u. k. government, or indeed, any government, some of the will to try and transform the planet. the british government has now made a commitment. it's reached at 0 by 2050. it's got some impressive goals in place. green is good. green is right. green works. but how exactly it will get that is lack of clear, much needs to be done at the moment is not even on coast to hit target. the 2035. and this despite scoring evidence from opinion pony, the majority of british people want to see the country reduced emissions foster. i'm 2nd example. other john gone, but now lord deepen was the u. k. environment secretary between 1993 and 7. today he has the climate change committee, which advises the government on emissions targets when you have to make the

promises, cuz if you don't have the target, shania don't have the parameters, you won't do it. but it's always more difficult to move from policy to action and it's always more difficult to deliver. that's true of any things. i remember when i was secretary of state while i was slightly laughed at before rather of no sort of bit bit peculiar, really. i mean those issues, renewables, or, i mean renewables will seem what she really wanted. good soul masculine. think the big shameful system would stay fed the shop out all these little ferry, windmills and all the when it's good. and we've had to change that new change that because government makes a tough decision and enables new industries to flourish. a batch, what we have to do much more effectively. it's not all bad. knees over the past 2 decades. government support has enabled britons offshore. wind industry to come to life. in 2020, it's counted for around

a quarter of the countries electricity generation. it's a key reason why emission to you have gone down by owns the 40 percent compared to 1990. but the government is also planning to allow new oil field and to co mine. 270000 jumps was supported by the british own and gas industry in 2019 making the full transition to clean energy as a challenge. anita, how might they pull it off? on my way to tease bodied in the north east of england, that is not responding to life jane the industrial revolution and became a bustling manufacturing hub. 9 for i didn't feel well on his calendar production. and now politicians, the banking on it having a major role in the transitions when that 01 to make her, the british government is investing,

i have 500000000 pounds in the region. it's already one of the, you case, offshore wind power hub. the math here and how chin has a grand division for the area which includes a more controversial technology. he started failing to decline the 1918 wanting. the closure deal with hodgin is planning to build a global net 0 hub. here on the 4500 acres, fight known as teeth work. the old infrastructure has been demolished and the ground level ready for investing is already in check from general electric plan to build a wind turbine blade factory here. $20000.00 joke to be crated couch and help me out of a facility built which will process carbon emissions from industries on site and in the surrounding area. we're actually stood on the side of one of the amazing

projects we managed to secure which will be gross worth, modern industrial scale called capturing storage. so to capture over $10000000.00 tons of carbon every single year. this multi $1000000000.00 project is a joint venture between oil companies, b, p, aquino, and total names that don't exactly spring to mind as champions of environmentally friendly low carbon initiatives. and some scientists remain deeply skeptical about how sustainable carbon catchy can be at scale. but how can isn't concerns? you'll have the old oil and gas companies. it will extracted huge amounts of fossil fuels, and carbon, in effect, from underneath and off, see, putting it back into those carbons where i have no problem with working with oil and gas companies. because they know that ryans on the wall for, for fossil fuels and they're trying to seek a new future to continue with their business. a climate change activists seems like this often carry the taint of green washing of monte. and in effect, a compromise with interest that helped create the problem in the 1st place. the

most important thing we should do is to stop producing greenhouse gases in the 1st place. but that's what governments don't want to do because of the power vested interests. you know, you have these big legacy industries, local fossil fuel industry, which have enormous political power because they have a lot of money. governments don't want to come from it were tinkering around the edges of the system. whereas a systemic threat. she's what we face requires systemic change to the fundamental problem. here is the sheer volume of economic activity. that's what hammering the planet, and that's what we need to reduce. and that means we actually need to stop growing yet, like it or not, that up as height. the growth, which gave rise to the still work since he started back in their heyday, is still the main driving force behind the competitive global economy to day.

inevitably, politically does everywhere worry that passing policies to combat climate change could put them as an economic disadvantage. if other countries don't follow suit. one of the cases, but we did use to try to make when i was environment department was, well there was a 1st liver advantage there. if economies were gonna have to move in that direction anyway, rather than be stranded with a bunch of, you know, redundant industries based on fossil fuels. you want to be in the wind guard of the new industrial revolution. if you like. we never quite managed to convince some of our economic department colleagues, she would say, well, actually might be better, just be the 2nd way. let other people go there 1st and we can be very quick copying for fear of failure. fear of losing power. fear is sacrificing national advantage. it's easy to understand why some governments have been slowed

to respond to climate change. but it's also clear why many people and now losing patience with carbonite. but none of them have a theory. and we're actually helping politician be helping maintenance people in the same that move in a different direction with extinction. rebellion or act thought is an activist movement that started in 2019 the aim of using non violent direct action to effect change. its 1st rebellion and u. k. in april that year led to the british government declaring a climate emergency. but 2 and a half years on and that back on the straits humanity doesn't make change like we don't have a choice. some of these activists are so desperate that they're prepared to go to

jail in order to draw attention to their code. but their voice is all being heard and even garnering some political support. clive louis is the labor m p. i. one of the things about politicians like me is that we sit here in here and we pass legislation. there's lots of different power base. putting us big companies, big money, banking institutions, vested interests, have a disproportionate poll and influence on our politic you see in this country, we see in the us, we see across the world. as all expression power conceived, nothing without him. all people need to demand more of their politicians demand more of their systems. and unless they do that, i don't think we'll move at the speed that we need to even for lords, deepen, change is long overdue. this is a revolutionary world. it's a revolution we forced upon us by the fact that we've allowed climate change to get out of control. and taking back control means of very whole hearted change in the

way which we structure. thank god. when the world 1st began to wake up to the dangers of global warming either 3 decades ago, political leaders still have the luxury of time to consider the implications and take the necessary action. now climate change is here. it's real and it's the fact that we're ready being found time for one of us, including our politician, is boss running out ah mean affluence, a stretch, some neighborhoods wrecked by social and economic despair, one o one ace makes a bed of local heroes. every one of us, they have a lot of responsibility to change our personal place, barshan for their suburban drake point out to 0. ah,

it remains possible to quickly reach and implement an understanding on a mutual return to compliance with the j. c. p. away. the u. s welcomes iran returns with talks with world palace to salvage the 2015 nuclear deal. but tensions flare was iran accuses the u. s. navy of trying to seize its oil, but washington calls it false and untrue. ah, hello, i'm darn jordan. this is al jazeera la you from dough also coming up to venus. he.
