not adequate. well, as the world looks to solutions to the global climate crisis, scotlands orkney islands or at the forefront of the renewable energy revolution. as nick clark reports, the islands have a heritage of innovation dating back thousands of years. the story of invention on these remote islands is coming full circle. cultural and architectural innovation flourished here way back in the elliptic times, even before the pyramids were built, 5000 years on orkney is again at the vanguard of the future. we all knew i didn't fit on arranging customer through the north sea and the north atlantic, where the tides career back and forth between the islands and the u. k. mainland and in the title raises, does power power that can drive all walls? this is the orbital oh to the world's most powerful title turbine. roaches spin in

the ebb and flow generating enough electricity for 2000 homes. it's just one of many prototypes being tested by the european marine energy center. here on orkney research suggest title power could provide up to 10 percent of the u. k. electricity with the same guaranteed output as gas or co title. and she's really interesting because it entirely predictable is driven by the position of the moon and the position of the earth and the sun. so we know where the tides are going to be when the thoughts can be running a 1000 years from today. some of the machines are on the see bit, some of the machines associate on the surface, but altogether they actually provide a huge energy source that's available. the island is him, have already capitalized on another force of nature. community owned commercial scale, wind turbines. they help generate more electricity than is required on the islands, the surplus being sold on to the u. k. mainland. there's also a huge,

offshore wind project planned and green. hydrogen is already being produced to power marine and road transport. i spoke to dr. sandy kerr and harriet, what university he told me, the acadia and green revolution has turned the island economy around. we get students to come here from around the world under kaden's that come back to learn about renewable energy in this community. and a number of them, steve and jacob jose with the local air renewable energy companies not really reverse in the brain drain that we see around the rest of the u. k. while there's still a long way to go, these islands a well on the road to carbon neutrality, wind and tide, a driving a size make change, giving the rest of the world a glimpse of things to come. nick clark al jazeera, the oconee islands. scotland are a separatist leader in nigeria is due back in court, accused of treason nam, d. cannon has pleaded not guilty. he runs a group called the indigenous people of b ephra. that was a secession estate. the split from nigeria,

bengal, bringing torrential rain to places like camel. now do where we have a red warning out. and under project production, but as well as to sri lanka, we've seen intense showers here and we could see more flooding in the south. that should weather update. oh, the weather is sponsored by casara ways in the country with an abundance of results for foreign want indonesia whose this concerns for me. we move forward to grow and fraud. 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. invest. let's be part linda. this is rose and progress. invent even easier. now, lou

ah, $1116.00 g. all mister them, 17 g, you're watching out. his ear, top stories seemed to drive us to work the well through program in ethiopia, had been arrested by the government. the u. n. is also pushing for the release of 16 ethiopian staff who have also been detained. the u. k. has released a draft cop 2016 that urges countries to step up their climate goals by the end of next year. leaders have been asked to revisit and strengthen the 2030 targets in sudan. some schools in university of suspended their studies in solidarity with strike action against last month's military takeover. sedans, protest movement has been pushing supporters to maintain demonstrations and civil disobedience campaigns. the former

u. s. president donald trump has lost his legal battle to block the release of documents to the congressional committee. investigating january's capitol hill riots. the house committee wants to see them to determine how much mr. trump or his inner circle may have been involved in the attack. drums lawyers argued that telephone records, visitor logs, and other white house documents were protected by executive privilege, but the judge disagreed in her ruling, tonya should come said the former president position that he may override the express will of the executive branch appears to be premised on the notion that his executive power exists in perpetuity, but presidents are not kings, and the plaintive is not president bill schneider is a political analyst and public policy professor at george mason. explain more about what this ruling actually means. it was as very explicit ruling by the judge, and she pointed out, and this was the key sentence. presidents are not kings,

and the plaintiff in this case, donald trump, is not the president. he was trying to exert executive privilege retroactively over over documents that pertain to his own presidency. joe biden is the said that he would not exert executive privilege over those. he's the president and what the judge said is we have a unitary executive, only one person con, at the time can be president, and as president biden, who has refused to exert executive privilege over these documents. why is he trying to hide this information? because the suspicion is that he was very much involved in an attempt to subvert the constitution and to overturn the electoral process in the united states, namely to namely congress his role in confirming the electoral vote. that's a very serious and grave affair. what president biden has said is that this is an issue of grave public importance equivalent. the judge said to watergate to 911 to iran, contra, and therefore, it's great public importance means that that's more important than executive

privilege, especially retros retroactive executive privilege for a former president the russian and bella, russian foreign ministers have both criticized the use handling of the refugee crisis on the poland, belarus, florida, at least 2000 people. a stock at the border increasing conditions. some tried to force their way through fences to reach other e u countries. the ponies prime minister has accused the russian president vladimir putin of masterminding, the crisis which the kremlin denies. let's speak to dominic cane has fallen de allowance for us this out without bureau in berlin. dom hi there. this situation with sug, elaborate getting involved seems to be getting slightly more combustible than it was this time yesterday. certainly the language that's being used has warmed up. he says, or should we say, with regard to what has been being said from both sides from all sides really of

this issue over the course of the last few days. we know that from the german perspective here in berlin, at least the angular magical the can't take. a chancellor has spoken on the phone to president putin and moscow about this situation. and she used a particular phraseology that's already been used by you. hi, executives, namely president funder lie and who yesterday talked about instrumentalists, a instrumental isaac, refugees, and migrants. that's a word that angle americans use to vladimir putin on the phone this morning saying she believes that president lucas shanker and his officials are using these migrants. these refugees as an instrument of their foreign policy as a way of destabilizing the relations and must be said, the very fraught relations between beatrice and the european union. she's also said that the conditions of the people. ready are facing, well, they're terrible. this should not be happening. the interesting thing is,

mr. puts in president putin. they said that these are comments that angle america should be addressing to the yellow russian officials, not to russian officials. but clearly, bearing in mind what we know of what the polish government, what they've said of who they believe is behind this, than it shows or this is a particularly interesting dialogue going on right now. and all the while we know the polish government now has 15000 assorted personnel, police officers, soldiers on that border. thousands of people still at that border. some of them managed to break through the fences and get to the polish size. lots of conversations taking place across europe now at the higher echelons of politics about how to deal with this feature is the message from the german government to the polish gulf, once let these people in or is the message more one of kind of cross capitals having an argument with each other because there's a big difference, isn't there? there's a big distance as well, i guess,

between instruments in this crisis or getting involved in it. that's the central accusation being leveled at the kremlin, is a big difference between that and actually orchestrating and choreographing, the whole thing from the get go. certainly there are lots of different facets through this entire equation as it were. bear in mind that there's a 2 fold strategy being played out from the level before we look at the member states individually. peter, remember from the east perspective, they see this as a twofold element. you have, on the one hand, that inner borders between members states that they want to keep wide open. i was act one, such border between poland and germany at a place called frankfort and the order on the german side, and still beats on the polish side. their traffic flows a very easily, there's a very discreet police presence. they don't stop very many people at all. there no

sorts of passport controls, anything like that. that's the type of border the e u wants to keep wide open. and then the other side of the equation is the outset border. specifically, the outer borders between the baltic states in belarus and poland and belarus. so when the germans contemplate the situation that the polish government is facing, if to perceive it from that perspective, remembering that many thousands of those who come through be errors get to poland. they all wants to come to germany. that's what they say. so lots of nuance going on right now between those officials here in berlin and their counterparts in warsaw. dom thank you so much. dominic came up a little correspondence. china struggling to contain his latest outbreak of the delta at variance of cubic 19 infections of man, spread to 20 provinces, prompting debates around the countries 0 tolerance strategy and tough control measures. katrina una for us from major a chinese city on the border with russia is

something out of science fiction, but it's very simple. if you spend just 10 minutes within a certain radius of unearned covered 19 case, your mobile form will alert authorities, which means a person can be quarantined even though they haven't come into actual physical contact with an infected person. nearly 77 percent of china's population is fully vaccinated, but wa, singapore, australia, and new zealand have opted to live with the virus. bating is sticking to its 0 tolerance strategy. policy was criticized by for ologist kwan e on hong kong television this week. so for all local governments, i'm italian, there's 0 tolerance policy. if we continue to do this, i'm sure i'll country colony will one day collapse. he also raised questions about chinese vaccines, which have lower protection rates than other vaccines. the chinese government has dismissed consent saying it strategy has kept the virus death toll low for now

melinda diligently, bullshit gas, no, there will be an issue, obvious fixtures. and with that, we hope that means an upstart on our economy. again, we understand the people are not going to agree to be locked down again. so with this reopening, we hope it will be a better christmas for everyone. but some analysts say it's not that simple. with what the more my me and purchase barring or armies without more support for max one we have to price. yes. i think it will be a long snow nick already at least until the end of next year. there will be early, perhaps even don't blanket blanket the man filipinos see, they've always faced hardship. but the pandemic, coupled with the lack of government assistance, is making it worse. jim l as in dog and al jazeera manila, tensions are growing in need. some is he in turn of eco rabb,
