slide, so we're done back at the training center here, and i got to say it was sir tony. we'll have you want to spell that, but it was on the label. it's hard to even describe it. i'm going to take a little bit to process it way. couldn't have gone better, get my hair. i got mad. we haines aquifer idea today. ah, this is al jazeera and these are the headlines dozens. if your dad's in the u. s. is tornadoes, leave a trail of destruction across 6 states. president joe biden is calling for national unity. and as promising the full support of the federal government, i want folks and all the station know we're going to get through this are going to get through this together and the federal government is not going to walk away. this is one of those times when we aren't democrats or republicans. sounds like hyperbolic, but it's real. where all americans, we stand together as united states,

america. and so i said all the victims, you're in our prayers and all those 1st responders, emergency personnel and everyone helping their fellow americans. this is the right thing to do with the right time. and we're going to get through this. and b, c correspondent che gray has more for manette. in arkansas. this isn't the time of year. we usually see tornadoes in an area that is familiar with tornadoes, but usually in a spring time, what i'm hearing from survivors is 1st start disbelief. i think most are still in shock, as you could imagine. and then in small towns like this 11500 or so, everybody either knows someone who was affected or, or a friend or a relative of someone affected. and so it really strikes hard. it's the 2nd and final day of meetings with g 7 foreign ministers in the u. k. city of liverpool, delicates, including those from the nations and gas countries are expected to discuss global

health security and be in the pacific region pulse of clothes and votes of incomes in, in the french pacific territory of new caledonia. islands is not really rejected working away from france in 2018. and last year, sunday process had been held in australia, large cities against schools, with 19 vaccine mandates. the protests and sydney and melbourne follow the government announcing an acceleration in booster shots. 3 quarters of australia's 26000000 population is truly an accumulated rescue teams. and so they are digging through the bubble of collapse buildings following a gas plant. the explosion is 4. people are reported dead. the several others are missing in the time of revenue in southern italy. and those are the headlines to stay with us here in all to sera or 5. this next we town the untold story. ah,

we speak when others don't. ah, we cover all sides. no matter where it takes a police fin here, guys and power impulsion. we tell your story. we are your voice. you knew your net back out here. ah . in since the industrial revolution, human sources of polluting gases happening, growing cause machines, food production, construction, these and mall all contribute to the high concentrations of pollutants in the

atmosphere, including carbon and other greenhouse gases, which are the biggest drivers of climate change with the are choices people can make to help drive emissions down. i'm not so read and then large to meet a community and birth thing in their own green society. and i'm going to trigger within india, where a new method of cremation is helping hindu tradition become more environmentally friendly. ah, green energy is total is the future if we want to stop global warming, but plating a commitment to renewable energy is one thing and doing it is another for just over there on the horizon, a south. so island, now they are officially 100 percent renewable that we have to get all of their energy for renewable sources. so we're going to go over there and meet the

community, find out how they did it. i've heard that the system, the island is have set up the so efficient that it produces more power than they need. not only does this enable them to be carbon negative, but also to make a profit by selling energy to the danish mainland. i'm meeting saw in hermanson who heads up the some so energy and environmental organization i saw. and finally i learn local the rosalia to receive the was nice of their beautiful it electric car accident. he's taking me in a private 2 of the island. so when they say it's a 100 percent renewable, i mean, is that true? like 100 percent by me we still have some fossil fuel consumption, tractors are driving. we have combustion engine cas also still, but we export about 80000 megawatt hours every year. well,

now that's incredible. there are 4000 people on the island. over the past 20 years, they've moved from a reliance on fossil fuels, to wind solar and bio mass technologies. from wind alone, they produce enough energy for themselves and the usage of 20000 other homes. ah, so why, why was it set up and why here on some so i didn't know that the beginning of it was very interesting because it was a top own decision. we had a very ambitious minister of the environment and he announced that they would cut down 21 percent of the of the person c o 2 emission. which was really interesting because i was the 1st person know what hired to do this project. and i remember the feeling that i was sitting down and having the, obviously 9 plus in the telephone and said, now how are we all the community here had come

a long way and no boast a carbon footprint of negative 12 tons per person per year. getting to this stage wasn't easy people were concerned about the impact of all these big installations on this little island and to convince people that this was good. we started thinking about using the old corporate have ownership model where people's kind of buying they buy a shia small chair or allowed biggest yeah. depending on how much money they have and thereby invite them to participate in the ownership so that you feel that i'm, i'm, i'm the potty owner of the wind turbine. so therefore it's, it's, it's because of me it's death guys. now if you get so close to these things are quite imposing. i boise, no spindle. all this one is this the service on it can legal up and yeah, you can really, you want to go at yes. of course. right?

ah. in the both of a battleship and what they don't tell you when you're on the and they say i see stories a little bit too, which is a little bit and when you know you 15 years have been yeah. hello. oh yeah. hey, i renewed my 3. okay. those days. okay. mm mm. wow. oh oh my gosh. it's susan laser. you're wearing how ward. i mean,

look the team are about to check the generator. look the wind speed. okay. and like interest. okay. oh my goodness. good. wow. because and so this is end as the entity right generated. so you can see there, there are, here i'm climbing is, can plaster faster r. 09. a wind power is particularly productive on some so because of its location in the car to get straight up there. 11 turbines on land and more on sea producing all the

islands, electricity needs. oh my goodness. i think her little when the project started in 1997 turbines cost more than $1000000.00 each. so $400.00 locals got together most buying 5 shares costing about $2000.00. ah, so it's taken me to meet some of the investors. i oh, i see, i'm russell, i'm soren. so nicely as a 1000000 to sorry, can you give us a sense high school in a big tournament? tell them this is, you know how the season starts? i'm in there. yes, ma'am. okay, so a little red ball is a pig to try and get as close as possible and come on with go on

a conversation i oh, no, no, no, i'm russell. can you give us a sense of how the community and i have responded to this shift to 100 percent renewable or really trick me was the fact that the people who didn't really speak to each other before i got together or anchors office. and so i talked to each other and to have a common goal. oh, oh, what brought it to the island? did it have something to do with the whole kind of 400 percent renewables? is that something you're proud of? definitely super proud. that's great. is it yearn? yes. hi, i'm russell. and so how do you fit in with this kind of energy landscape that we've been learning about? i have been way parts in involved and i've spent a lot of money also. the 1st that was

a wind turbine. on my farm and everybody could see that was a good business. and so how things progresses? ok, so now and so tree is laid i by a half wind turbine under see so you know how to save the world. this is a, is, is visit. god forces in frustrates me is that everyone here has their own reasons for buying into the project. oh, and ultimately their investment is as good for the planet as it is for their wallets. but as their willingness to collaborate on, a common goal is led to some ingenious solutions ah, come to the local biomass heating, trying to find out more. this is not why specter, oh, this is the fuel. this plan is one of 3 on the island. all the straw he is produced locally and fuels

a heating system that allows locals to spend 40 percent less on her bills than the used to build them on floating on is bring bales of hay. each one is about just less than a ton. so they're going on so they can be about at the end and they're getting dragged in and in here, the gang shredded up and then fed into a blast furnace. so can you tell us m? is it efficient? showerhead kill how? lee in the lower really wow. i mean like say 10 green or 1st chevry pain presumption, it is a long oil for standard of 0 alicia bowl, if not with the, with a short ohio or he would shoot to make one off. in order here, where the water is, it brought around in the water,

heated here circulates via a network of underground pipes connecting to radiate is in india, ju homes in the surrounding area, happens to this is a byproduct this, i did route 3 pro, sent home a carry the michael nutrients to the plants need to survive. and they did. it's really a much more efficient system than is practically carbon neutral as well because the emissions that are created on burning. but the same as the emission that says the carbon is that the atmosphere when it grows in the 1st place. so it's a pretty neat co system. ready ready ready ready from so island success are creating not only a green society, but green economy hasn't be lost on the rest of the world. ready and these days they receive $5082.00 as per year,

so many that the set up an energy academy. and so what is the big idea that draws people from all over the world? yeah, i think everybody has some kind of tuition that this is the way to go. this is where we want to be at in the future. but a lot of places they don't know how to handle this. how do we do that? how do we, how to get started and the meeting here is kind of confirming that this is possible . we can do this since the project started soren and his colleagues have advised 29 countries. alexis, the project manager has invited me to sit in on a call to a community organizer in hawaii. huh. can i ask, what's the most important thing that you get of communicating with the residents, you and some so i think the most important thing we get is inspiration support and to hope for something better for the future is saying, yeah,

that's all we're doing. yeah. so that's the idea to help communities and realize their potential and their options and slight ah, i mean, it's really quite simple when you think about it, you know, these guys don't have access to something that the rest of us don't. is just the fact that they've managed to get everybody together, sit around in a circle, listen to each other, just make it happen. mm ah, around the world there are a vital regions like oceans and dense forests where the earth naturally absorbs and store was coppin. but many of these are under threats drastically reducing the amount of c o 2. they can sequester forests, for example,

a being loss due to looking land clearances and pollution. an area around half the sides of england vanishes each year. in southern quebec, research is monitoring the woodlands to learn how far is destruction is impacting cop and storage. so trees through photosynthesis take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and turn them into bio mass into wood, where they're stored as carbon, the more carbon that we have stored in biomass in the forests, the less carbon dioxide we have in the atmosphere contributing to managing this or such can help guide local conservation strategies and influence town planning to mitigate impact on vital areas ah

for thousands of years in those are being performing the last funeral rights according to specific religious guidelines. including burning the dead cremation is the traditional method of disposing of the disease. but with $8500000.00 hindus dying each year. funeral pyres exact, a huge environmental tool. felling over 50000000 trees, emitting 8000000 tons of carbon dioxide into the air and adding to india's already critical air pollution problems. but here in delhi, a team of environmentally conscious engineers has adapted this age old tradition of cremation, to today's needs to protect the environment. ah, nigga booth crematorium is the oldest and most sacred of day least 375 open air cremation sites or got. it's also the busiest cremating about 70 bodies

with it. sinking in now, looking at all these burning bodies am immediately reminded of for my own grandmother's passing last year. brings up a lot of roy motions that go with the buzzing of a little bit. is a difficult time for families, and not particularly a moment in the environment is of primary concern. but an organization called mazda is trying to change all that you must be unco. yeah, i go co until god is an executive officer at the n g o. so one for my son is about bizarre. they have just then and we'll targeting the initial lighting up of the buyer. and how long does it keep? ah, it takes about a minimum 5 to 6 hours, 5 to 6 hours. i can see your eyes are watering. yeah, because of the volition and you can see it stored li dogs smoke. yeah. really ducks

. and so this is the actual pollard and i see that is a little bit more activity now. see now the chief more mad. the son, he will do the most important part of the commission process. he will take this bamboo and he will hit the head of the dead person. there is one cabal clear to give salvation with a deceased person. everything is part of this time on a tradition to god cindy, open air, the mourners gathered around the body. even the use of wood is significant, but it's also a major contributor to the environmental problem. all of this is the wood that they've gathered here, which gets chopped up into smaller pieces as the day goes on and as they get orders

and as bodies start coming in, they have this massive weyerhaeuser which is will avoid normal, is carried here. does not get charged. so give you a family just that i'd with the deceased and i'm told they purchased the car load full of wood, which was 400 cages. the 400 is here, and then this is the change i didn't make if i let me go, diane, for who don't put it in. moody. moody's also them a down to 100 quintiles, which is $20000.00 kilos of would goes through this area. i just cannot begin to imagine the magnitude of the problem facing us, the next to played this to the rest of india. no wonder forest disappeared as early as the 1960, the indian government recognized the environmental impact of cremation. and they

tried to address the problem by introducing an alternative method. so this is this, the angio gas base agreement with follies to port the body and say this type of cremation only cost $10.00, which is less than half the cost of a traditional $1.00. even still, there are few takers. the main problem is the people you cannot perform the read to us. there is no use of board. and one of the boards inside you can do anything. you just have to say like this. and after 2 hours or 3 hours, you've been big the ashes and then you can go back. i mean, i have to say this place looks really grim, an industrial. there's nothing absolutely nothing traditional about this. even with the best government, subsidized intentions, gas and other forms of more environmentally friendly methods of cremation. haven't caught on dr. harvey sing?

a sociologist of funerary rituals has some thoughts on the subject of february. why is cremation such an important element in hindu tradition? it comes from the scriptures, ah, one of the most important and sent to raise to sort of think of cremation, is to begin to think about the dead person himself or herself participating individual, as our sacrifice we've seen would being used in the cremation at this site is that an important an integral part of commission as well in the end of this? yes, up. so would john to vicki is very significant to fire, ease and aesthetic that is seen with a certain degree of grace. so that would explain the reluctance that hindus exhibit in trying and adopting alternator ways of, okay, maybe i would think that it is part of a certain kind of artifacts feed that you,

you do what you have been doing. and this is very difficult to said. in case of dead circles, university indians might be resistant to change when it comes to saying good bye to loved ones. but the environmental impact of cremation can no longer be ignored. as india's population approaches a staggering 1300000000 more debts and more commissions, only spell further and man mental problems for the living. ah, this is way more stuff and shows, organisation has come up with a more ecological friendly system which balances the environment with tradition. so what's going on here are preparing for it to misunderstand what i've already all

know about. the use only $150.00 to $200.00 videos for one reason, instead of $480.00 than i've been using less would also means this system cost less than a traditional cremation. this method allow for the traditional rituals to be performed the same way as a conventional ah, welcome to the newsroom, lester, your life to liverpool, euclid there 2 or 3 to serve on foreign ministers meeting the euclid foreign secretary. las cross is giving the the media briefing, let's listen in the heart of britain's cultural influence from music right through to sport. and what were you shown this weekend is that the world's largest economies are united. we've sent a powerful signal to our adversaries and our allies. we've been clear that any incursion by russia into ukraine would have massive consequences for which there

were be a severe cost. we've also shown that we stand for freedom and democracy and the rise of people everywhere to live free from oppression. we need to make the positive case for individual humanity and dignity which lies at the heart of our democratic free societies. we will defend and advance these valleys by working more closely together to deepen our economic and security ties, including delivering more honest, reliable investment to low a middle income countries. we were pleased to welcome friends from australia and south career and the assay and nations to day showing the united kingdom's in de pacific tilt inaction. because the more the we trade with our friends and allies,

the more we work with each other on security, the wealthier freer and safer we all, la, i look forward to us doing that. so we can forge of future that we all want. finally, i want to pay tribute to germany where passing the g 7 bass and over to them, and i look forward to working place you of angelina over the next year and beyond. thank you. i think we've now got some questions. could i start with dominick? why com, please? thank you. dominic wagons go news for a secretary of how can the prime minister look so outraged at the idea of christmas parties down the street when they're on our photographs of him hosting one which lawyers seem to think show him, potentially breaking the law. and what does that do to britain's founding on the world stage? not credibility amongst allies. if i could also ask you about a russian ukraine farmer putin seems determined to invade ukraine. according to western intelligence,

also seem to be suggesting that at least what difference will a few spurred words from liverpool made to that. on the 1st subject, the cabinet secretary is conducting a thorough investigation. all of that is, ah, events that took place for you'll appreciate that my focus has been on the very serious issues that we face globally. namely the specific issue that you raise of russian aggression and how that is countered. and what we've seen this weekend is very much united voice from the g 7 nations. he represent 50 percent of global g d p being very clear that there would be massive consequences for russia. in the case of an incursion into ukraine, that would carry a severe cost. next will james from reuters

and foreign secretary or his china a threat to the way we live our lives in the west. and if so, what is that she 7 going to do about it? well we, we have been clare at this meeting this weekend that we are concerned about the coercive economic policies of china. and what we want to do is build the investment reach the economic trade reach of like minded freedom, loving democracies. that is why we are stepping up our investment into low middle income countries. a couple of weeks ago we launched british international investment with an increase budget. and that is all say why we are working with our friends and partners to help shape the future of technology to make sure that

technology is shaped by the free world, particularly standards in areas like artificial intelligence and quantum technology . busy james landau, i'm from senator james lender be receive up. is the rom serious about doing a nuclear deal, or is it playing for time? and are you preparing to get heads of government involved to decide the future of these talks and just wanted to follow up dominic's question. tory empties, mutinous downing street is in disarray. the prime minister is mocked and untrusted . what do you think must be done to rescue this government.
