and as many people have been saying in my circle today and twitter, it's a gut punch people and the planet the, those are the losers, right? so we know the winners are the conservative states, the conservative elected officials, the fossil fuel industry, essentially everyone else, humans, the ecosystem, the atmosphere. these are all people who are going to lose out. because as the scientists they work with say, we are coming up against what we call planetary boundaries, sort of the limits of what the earth can take to sustain humanity in the way it has been. and we really need to reduce the use of fossil fuel and greenhouse gas pollution and the circle back still ahead on al jazeera. why north korea's blaming . it's neva, it's south reason, cavan 19 outbreak. i've got his sounds. most powerful lead is amazing. and the people who aren't allowed in the room are still trying to make them voice.

south korea has dismissed the possibility that balloons could be the source routine community. and it is the common view of experts that the spread of them fiction through the virus being carried on the surface of an object is virtually impossible and get damaged. the more likely cause of the outbreak is thought to be from china with restrictions on the border finally being eased earlier this year to allow much needed trade after being sealed. since the start of the pandemic, accusing the south of being the source is politically convenient. with a conservative administration now empower here, which is viewed as being far more unfriendly. it also helps to shift the blame at a time when the north is facing multiple crises without vaccines. north korea has relied heavily on promoting exercise home grown remedies and medicines to overcome the outbreak. and with less than $5000.00 new cases of fever a day, it seems to be over the worst of it. but there are also warnings about an increase
