to fast a 0 for science this, the evidence is irrefutable. but america's climate change denial stubbornly mistrust of the fact. despite soaring temperatures, raging wild fires and shrinking water reserves, the world's largest economy, it's still split along ideological lines. so can it ever reach consensus to avoid catastrophe climate wars on a just 0 ah, back to school for millions of children in the philippines after one of the world's longest covered shutdowns.

ah, i know about this, and this is all you seem alive from doha also coming up international appeals to avoid a nuclear disaster in ukraine. as shelly continues near the russian controlled power plant and zappa crecia. i'm pretty savvy in the city of nikolai and southern ukraine. 6 months ago, the ukraine, an army managed to prevent the advance of russian troops towards this city. but even today, people say it's under constant attack. the desperate search for survivors in iraq up to was showing me had called bullet was hit by a landslide. and how cutting down trees helps forest conservation in mexico using an ancient method of sustainability . ah,

millions of students in the philippines returning to school after one of the world's longest covered shutdowns. they've been studying at home for over 2 years to help stop the spread of the virus. vaccination isn't necessary for students to return to classes, but the department of education says more than 90 percent of teachers have been inoculated. however, not all schools will have face to face lessons. some teaching is going to be blended to mixing remote and classroom learning ought to be lows at a school in manila that's resumed in person classes. filipino school kids are back in school for the 1st time in 2 years. the philippines, of course, has had one of the longest cobra, 1900 lockdown in the world. the bullying manila is already implementing full on face to face classes. so students here are having to get used to some changes, for example, these arrows, the yellow arrow is for going into the classroom and then the red arrows are for going out of. now, inside the classroom,

they have had to take out some of the furniture to make way for more speed. and whereas before there would have been more than 40 students here right now, there are only 30 to 35 students who will also have to wear their masks all day that the water has the leak. and they have to get their temperature checked before they get into the school. some schools are doing hybrid learning, where some students are the face to face classes on sundays, and then others are still doing this and online learning. but the biggest concern is the quality of learning that has really gone down during the pandemic. in 2019 an estimated 30 percent, the filipino school kids that have reached the age of 10 could not read simple text or understand a simple story. now during the pandemic, international agency say that number has gone down to less than 20 percent. and so the education department is hoping that by resuming face to face classes,

will it be in the school? kids could catch up with global learning standards being shut out of schools impacted children around the world. the yo ends, children's charity says school closures can be blamed for a rise and students dropping out as well as struggling with mental health issues. the world bank says it's the worst education crisis in a century. the philippines economy relies, the money being sent back by citizens working overseas. but last years of schooling could affect the quality of future graduates and how much money they can anne and send back home. the world bank says the time spent away from the classroom who cut students future income between 4 and 16 percent, depending on the country. vladimir whiter is the national chair of the alliance of concerned teachers in the philippines. he says the school closures have had a devastating impact with many students losing skills and their interest in studying generally the impact of the, the internal quality that the patient. no. ah, some of our big students, not the,

not my g r, right. the, and i'll, i'll do alright. or alton. well, you'll see the numbers. no, a year's no. and many of our, i mean, are not interested in getting started on. and you know, we have no record to regards to a lost or now or so. you know, i picture of it, no idea we had no, we received a memorandum from david. how are you lost all of the innovation as my, you know, i'm teaching senior high school using the p b. i did, i didn't have my g. how do i assess my students from the, from the great, they're all from great, great 9 or 8. the student, again, all of these were, you know, i was in my g there, there. let's agree because that me, these are, are came from read what angry, who are these learning?

so oh, i think that's so just what the government did not. so the problem is not the glad robbins odd to one day but it is of the u. s. u. k. france and germany say a tax close to ukraine's operation nuclear plant need to stop ukrainian. officials say shells have been falling in a city near the atomic power complex. it started a large fire and cut power to run. 3000 people gives accused. moscow of turning the plant into a military base. france says rush only to vladimir putin has agreed to allow the un nuclear watchdog to inspect it. but to go again has more from washington dc. when it came to the nuclear power plant, they said they quote, they discussed the situation arounds ever reach a nuclear power plant. need to avoid military operations near the plant and the importance of an i. e, a visit as soon as feasible. so,

knowing what we know about these calls, because details always leak out after the fact, what were they likely talking about? well, the leaders probably wanted to hear directly from french president and manual now kron on what he personally thought of his conversation with russian president vladimir putin, where he came out and said he was now open to having those inspectors inside the nuclear power plant. so again, these are the leaders of the us, france, germany, and the u. k. what else would they like me to talk about? probably intelligence, we've all seen those pictures on social media of those military trucks inside the facility, the u. s. government and these governments are going to have a much better assessment of the people on twitter or anything we would know about what the potential uses for those military trucks are. another thing they're likely going to be talking about is if the worst case happens, if there is a malfunction at the plant, there is a radioactive cloud. what are they going to do if it drifts into a nato member country?

remember, article 5 says, a direct attack on any nato country, means nato, then instantly gets involved in the war. well, would a radioactive cloud be considered a direct attack on that country? so undoubtedly there be discussing that this is also, these readouts are important because they send a message, they send a message to the kremlin, to vladimir putin. that this is an issue, especially when it comes to the nuclear actor. that these leaders are taking very seriously, and it sends a message that they're working on. what of response would be? the southern ukrainian city of mich alive has suffered heavy bombardment since russia's invasion began in february. before he said the was devastated parts of the region, including more than 6000 residential buildings and 66 medical facilities. more than 300 educational facilities have also been damaged along with a 131 cultural institutions. gas, electricity, and water supplies have been suspended in many parts. are just, it has to submit reports from mc alive. oh,

corona virus shut. does it mean studying at home? since march 2020 students don't have to be vaccinated to return to classes. emergency crews and iraq are searching for people chopped under the bubble or collapsed shrine. it's believed online, sliding to cause part of the shrine your car below to keep in on saturday. at least 4 people have died in the u. s. the u. k. france and germany are calling for an end to attack, so i'm ukraine's is up patricia and nuclear plant. officials say shells landed close to the facility, responding a fire and cutting part of 3000 people. murder investigations been launched in moscow after a well known political commentator was killed in a suspected car bombing. darya davina was the daughter of alexander, duke, and a close ally of russian president vladimir putin. both of them supported the invasion of ukraine. some people suspect the father was the target of the attack. the ukrainian government denies any involvement. zebra savvy has more. oh alex

xander doogan to russian nationalists. he's a philosopher and strategist who represents president vladimir putin's policies. to his critics. he is a pro kremlin fascist who has openly called for the killing of ukrainians. that 1st the likely target of a car bombing near moscow late saturday. duke was saved by a last minute the vehicle change as you left a cultural event. his daughter, daria do keena, took his place and the bomb that was probably meant for his duke and was skilled looking on powerless to do anything. the car carrying his daughter still in flames . say she will be in at the moment. investigators and forensic specialist of the main investigative directorate of the russian investigative committee for the most region, together with the colleagues from the main forensic department of the russian investigative committee and the bomb experts continue working on the crime scene.

you morning. 29 year old. daria was a russian broadcaster and political commentator, not both father and daughter, and expressed far right. nationalist views strongly supported the invasion of ukraine and were placed on international sanctions for spreading this information. i guess only that we do not know if carried out the attack. the ukrainian fiercely denied it over the russians. of course, blame them, including allies and do again. and no matter what this sort of real story is coming, we'll use this to double bound rhetoric on your brand new scene. and when respond in that way, it's almost every incident. now, ukraine has said it does not resort to terror tactics. blaming rushes own government or security apparatus. a picture of russian nationalism, the public face of what many viewers putin's expansionist policies, even referred to as putin's brain. dugan's views likely marked him for death.

his attackers, whoever they are, who got his daughter instead. one zane, basra, avi ultra 0 rushes economy is being crushed by western sanctions. according to a study by the yield school of management, despite the kremlin insistence that things are going well, it says oil and gas revenues dropped by more than half and may compared to the previous month. yes, says it's quoting, the russian government's own numbers. the kremlin hasn't released relevant financial data since then. imports of collapsed by over 50 percent in recent months . they play an important role in the domestic economy and some sectors that heavily rely on global supply chains being affected by soaring inflation. as high as 60 percent and foreign companies are also pulling out because of the war, the study says more than a 1000 companies have curtailed the activities. here giles is an author, man, senior consulting fellow with russia and eurasia program, and chatham house. he says, russia has a history of ignoring the economy for the sake of war. russia has

a long history of spending itself into state collapse and pursued upon winnable wars. after all, they did that 3 times in the 20th century in 1905 after the russian japanese war and 1917 in the 1st world war that led to the complete collapse of the state and the arrival of communism. and of course, in 1991 at the end of the cold war. so there is form for this. they have repeatedly ignored the economy to the deficit, to the detriment of the country while trying to pursue some war that they're never going to be able to win. the president, putin has said that he wants to avoid this mistake, that russia has done over and over again before. but it seems at the moment they're all the signs that they are disregarding the economic damage that the worth doing to their own country. and pressing ahead, regardless, russia and russians are always greatly more resilient to this and to the kind of degradation of the standard of living and their economy that goes with it than a western liberal democracy or many other countries around the world would be. but

it's a brittle system, it's more resilient, it last longer than most people expect. but when it snaps it's bloody, it's messy and it affects all kinds of countries around russia's periphery, as well as russia itself. it's unpredictable when that happens and that's something else that repeats itself in everything that we've seen. nobody predicted the end of the soviet union. few people predicted the end of the summer monarchy before it. so he had to, we might not be able to tell just when that breaking point comes, when the 2000 workers and one of the case busiest ports of walked off, the job threatening serious disruption. phoenix dough porter comes for close to half of the countries container freight traffic the a day walk husband, sparked by a pay dispute. also has been speaking to some of the striking workers the world's largest container ship had britton's largest container. port the ever a lot arrived on thursday and normally would be long gone by now, but strike action by felix, those $900.00 duck workers,

has stopped operations. the unite union says a recently increased offer of a 7 percent pay rise. doesn't keep pace with spiraling inflation, it's seeking a double digit raise that it says would share surging corporate profits. $71000000.00 at last count more equitably with the workers. now unfortunately, we've yet to be given an offer, which we think we can take back and which reflects our members as bryson and talking to members today in which we're in a position that there is you can see we've, we've had that message sent back to us loud and clear, felix to port says it was reminded in recent days by the bank of england of the inflation re effects a big pay rises. the port company accuses the union of using the workers in a national struggle on average for our case. this is next for 3 and a half 1000 pounds in cash to them each year. the action that they're taking now that united is making them take, not having to put this offer to all workers,

but the action that united making them take is actually going to take the best part of a 1000 pounds out of their pocket. the question is, how far the effects of this shut down will ripple through the u. k. economy. the port says the effects will be manageable, pointing to the lessons learned during the supply chain. disruption of the pandemic . suddenly, the ever a lot isn't going anywhere anytime soon. and some industry analysis suggest other container ship as are already offloading the cargo in europe. instead of the u. k. the union accepts there will be major disruption and says that it could carry out further strikes as it seeks. what it says is a fair deal up the road in ipswich, adams scott's printing and embroidery business relies on imported materials, textiles, inc, and vinyl. he supports the right to strike, but is worried about further shocks to a supply chain that's already stretched, and only getting costlier historically, where we'd have maybe to price wise's job to 3 percent, something like that. we're now looking at 8 to 10 percent price rises monthly from

our suppliers, so it's not like a challenging environment for us over the last. so yeah. this sunday's cargo it felix though, was restricted to day trip, is all sides of settling in for a long wait for this dispute to be resolved. and it's just one among many, a long summer of industrial action and economic uncertainty isn't yet over. harry faucet, al jazeera felix king the electoral commission, once police to investigate rights to its employees, as well as the murder of an election official. the commission suspended vote counting at a balance center during presidential pose earlier this month. thing staff were being intimidated. catherine saw has more. yes, this moon is in eastern kenya. are preparing to barry. the loved one. daniel was your call was electron official was in charge of a contentious carling center in nairobi. oh, do you see? no. he disappeared. 2 days of the tiling began,

a long while to heal. catherine soil, alta 0, much aqua county communities in central mexico are using a historic but unconventional technique to save their forests. mirabella has the story from the amato forest o trees from a forest in central mexico or being harvested for timber. the images don't exactly evoke a sense of conservation either, but several communities who reside near the outskirts of this forest have found that sustainable timber harvest and land protection go hand in hand is approach. i'm in thought. what can they do? this harvest generates economy gains for the community which are distributed in percentages for social projects. and most importantly, for reforestation and creating conservation brigades to protect against forest fires, such as the pine trees being hauled away or taken to

a sawmill. here the sale of wood has brought steady income to almost a dozen communities known as a heedless under mexican agrarian law. and he, those have communal ownership over the force and are entrusted with protecting it on say, he goes for one historian, he says young 11 a, he knows a part of our organization. they all abide by the rules of forestry management, which determine precisely how much would can be extracted annually. with the rainy season underway, reforestation efforts are in full swing and the mexican government is providing assistance in the form of pine saplings. it's a model of sustainability that's existed in mexico for hundreds of years. rosco, many other other than that available scale me or when a community sees the force of their livelihood. they have an incentive to preserve it and protected from fires, illegal logging and carrying for the biodiversity inside the forest community

investment in eco tourism has also brought jobs to the region. there are concerns, however, that many here don't feel safe speaking to reporters about on camera. especially given the encroachment by criminal groups known for illegally exploiting agricultural lands and forests. illegal logging continues to be a big problem in some parts of the country, but here in central mexico community management of natural resources has proven to be an effective way of protecting forest and promoting sustainable development. more than 30 percent of mexico is covered by forests and dedicated conservation efforts are crucial for their survival. at least this force counts on the full time stewardship of its human guardians. monroe up a little al jazeera mexico's, i'm an alco forest. ah.
