ah, what we do is try to balance the story and the people who allow us into their lives, dignity, and humanity. ah, this is al jazeera. ah, you're watching the news, our life from a headquarters in delphi, and jerry and abigail coming up to the next 60 minutes, rallying troops on the front line, ukraine's president's visits move to town, almost destroyed in the fighting. the world bank slashes china's growth forecasts as the current of virus and demi continues to hammer its economy. yeah. argentina,

as world champion football stars are being cheered by hundreds of thousands of fans at a victory parade in the capital. germany convicts the so called secretary of evil and one of the countries, los holocaust trials. the welcome to the news. our ukraine's president vladimir zalinski has honored his soldiers in bad mood to city. that's witness some of the heaviest fighting with russians. local sources and don boss region have told al jazeera that the russian forces and their allies in bad moods have lost some of their positions on the southern side of the city, but continue to target the area. the southern city has been attacked since ukrainian forces recaptured it in november. meanwhile, ukraine's energy facilities have been crippled by the russian strikes. charles rochefort has more on the impact on ukrainian. this is one of more than

a 100 electric substations country wide across ukraine. and as you can see, the level of destruction here, this particular substation has been hit in 3 separate attacks by 6 russian missiles . the software tell us that this electrical plant supplies around 600000 people with electricity, those people now having to undergo and ensure rolling blackouts as this sub station tries to distribute as much power as it can obviously after these attacks. what so interesting though, is that this, like many of those substations was built during the soviet era, this particular one in 1958. and that means that the russians know pretty much exactly how this grid works. and incredibly, it was only 4 hours before the invasion that the ukrainians, disconnected from the russian and bella rouge and electrical systems like them.

we'll see the july was the where we all feel like we are in the 1st line of energy defense. all ukrainians are looking at us with hope that we can return light and heat into their homes. with our teams are working round the clock and ignoring the freezing conditions. so much equipment has been destroyed and our company doesn't have enough spare parts to restore electricity to all civilians, all the time. professor ukraine's president vladimir zalinski on december, the 13th said, restoring the country's progress could cost more than one point. $5000000000.00. damage then meant a shortfall of 2.5 gigawatts, and that was before 2 more massive drone and missile bombardments targeted the country's energy infrastructure. as an example of just how well russia knows this electrical grid system. this was an electrical transformer. i was taken a direct hit, the staff here tell us that it contained 60 tons of oil and the blaze after the

blast, they say, took around 5 hours to push out the substation. and more than $100.00, like it across the country, our own constant alert, they could be an attack at any time, the estimated cost of repairing the damage. here the stock tell us could be tens of millions of dollars. and this is just one of what the ukranian authorities say is around a 1000 kamikaze drone and miss all attacks against vital infrastructure stations like this across the country. or russia's president has called on her security services to search for spies and foreign intelligence services. in a video statement, a lot of our content also called on her security to protect the borders of russian antics areas of ukraine. really. and you're going to be that personally because naturally, especially i would like to mention the units of the security agencies that started operating in the new russian regions. yes,

it's difficult for you now. the situation in the nets can do 100 people's republics in the person's parisha, regions is extremely difficult. but the people living there, the citizens of russia rely on you and your protection. and it's your duty to do everything necessary to ensure their security rights and freedoms. as much as possible with the world bank has lost its growth forecast for china because of coven, 1900 outbreaks, and an economic slowdown. beijing has started to loosen its tough 0 covert policy, but remaining restrictions on the surgeon cases are putting pressure on the economy . the world bank is also blaming a weak property sector. uncertainty over the current a virus situation in china has been rattling investors in asian markets. richard kimber, how's more from hong kong? asked us full initially. the hope was that things were very much get back to normal, that manufacturing and global supply chains. we get back on track international

investors started pouring money into the chinese stock market just hours after these relaxation announcements were made. but now the world bank and many international banks have started fairly, aggressively scaling back their forecasts. what they think is possible for china, not just for this year, but also for next year. speaking to employers over the phone yesterday based on the mail. and i was told that there were multiple cases of cove in 19 on almost every country that everybody was speaking to. and that's affecting hiring, it's affecting long term planning, and it's affecting those very same supply chains that the international world. we're hoping we're going to get back on track. and so basically, the expectations from the international economic will that china's growth story next year is going to be very much hampered by what's expected to be a long drawn out recovery period. as it transitions out of this 0 coven policy, we're looking not at growth levels of 567 percent as had been projected earlier on last year. but now much closer to 34 percent. those kinds of levels because of the length of time it's expected. this transition period could take

a turn as health authorities have been reporting around $2500.00 cases per day since the relaxations were introduced. they reported 7 deaths since that time as well. but international health experts are looking at this data and they're trying to make projections based on what's happened elsewhere and look at the size, the chinese population and try to figure out if these kinds of numbers can make sense. reader cozy as a professor of macroeconomics at the university of saint gal, and he says that it's unclear when china's economy will balance back or we still don't know exactly the fatality rate of the vaccinated people in china. and we do not know exactly how many over eighties have been vaccinated. the figures here where about 50 percent, which means they're what it would be reasonable to, to expect between $1.20. that however, the government is working hard. so to try to encourage the vaccination of the other

lee, so i uncertainty the right keyboard because things can go very readily, but key things can also lead to much recovery. it is a very, very interesting situation with lots of possibilities. open, obviously, in the long term i what i view as, as the most problematic things is the, i think, our logical isolation that can come from geo political reasons in the united states at the moment. encouraged to stop the export to authentic and doctors and ship components or incorporating high technology for security reasons. and presumably the w t o will not be able to overturn this due to the security reasons involved. so china will probably have to read the massively in catching up with technology without relying on cheap and non protect the transfer. it's from the wet anymore.

the usa department says that it's concerned for the rest of the world because of that increase in cobit cases. in china, cities, there are scrambling to install hospital beds and there are shortages of drugs to treat the virus. 7 covert related deaths have been reported since sunday, but health experts war and the situation is worse than official data suggest. the u. s. supreme court has extended a controversial trump era immigration policy which restricts asylum claims. the rule known as title 42 was imposed in 2020 and it's due to expire. on wednesday, it allows the government to use coven, 1900 protocols to block migrant entry on the border with mexico. the high court decision follows a legal challenge by republican lead states to continue the measures return by hydro, castro. she's speaking to us from the u. s. town of el paso heidi, and that is a town that borders mexico. tell us why there's been

a serge recently or people who been trying to cross the border into the united states. right. and it is a historic serge at that last week. 10000 people were released by us border agents into justice el paso region, on the daily average. it's about $2500.00 people per day, which is simply overwhelming. this community, you're seeing people here outside of the cities bus terminal. there's some have been sleeping out here for days in temperatures that get below freezing at night. the shelters that are indoors, that area churches are not the for are also full of people. and these are the rats who have nowhere else to go. and the why they're coming. well, i spoke with 2 women from one many are from one many from venezuela who say they fled political persecution. one was is the daughter of a political prisoner,

she says, and you cut out one another has a young child. the 2 of them had to flee bullets at a protest against the good. i was presidential administration and you'll hear those stories repeated over and over again. and the people here, they actually consider themselves lucky, even though they're outside without shelter because they're among the 50 percent or so. who have been allowed to come this far to cross the border from mexico and stay in the us temporarily. while there are cases 4 asylum are being process. the rest are being held on the other side of the border in mexico because of that title. 42 policy that you mention, which is using the pandemic as a reason to ex bell people before they have a chance to claim political asylum or any other form of silence in the us. now there are a lot of people thinking that midnight tonight in just a few hours, that policy would be abolished. however, at the 9th hour,

the u. s. supreme court intervened, and so we're sort of in limbo that policy is still in place. more people are still being expelled at the border, but many migrants were hearing from, from the other side of the border, say they didn't hear about this you, it's a pain court decision. so they're still lining up. thinking that this in a few hours time will be their opportunity to cross. and that goes right to, to speak to the reasoning of the republican states that filed the court case. to try to keep the pandemic restrictions in place because they are fearful that at the moment when title 42 does go away and the border opens a little bit more, there are fearful that what, what all righty is a surge of migrants will become a tidal wave and that will be unable to handle all of these people's in the human and humanitarian crisis. ok, thank you so much. hi. these are costs are reporting from el paso, texas, a v that hole in the latest fading, a nigeria. some foreign state has now risen to 213 government troops have been

fighting armed groups in the countries volatile northwest. the region has years of disputes between farmers and cattle, herders over land and water resources. local authorities say those killed include arm to salen civilians, as well as 10 soldiers sent to moorhead on the al jazeera news hour, including the u. k. 's winter of discontent. nurses walk off the job again over low pay on patient safety. why those daring to criticize the president and one of the world's biggest democracies could face jail time? ah, but 1st argentina world cup winning stars are being cheered by tens of thousands of fans at a victory parade. and the capital one, a series led by captain leno, messy the team is making its way on an open bus to the city center. the government

is declared tuesday as a national holiday to celebrate the triumph that was 36 years in the making. monica and a cab is joining us from the capital one a series to talk to us more about the ongoing celebrations. monica got that. i will look even the archon tines there, there is never seen something like this before. the amount of people, i mean, the whole center of the city is taken over. 2 by millions and millions of people. it's really, really crowded here. it's a very early in the morning. they want to wait for men. we want to do when you arrive at around 2 30 in the morning, the welcome. the bought a went to rest for a couple of hours and some people went straight from the airport here. and it's

really, really hot, but they're still here. they're waiting, they will take much longer than what be blank because the bus is going very slowly because of the amount of people, but never up. they been joyful. and many people were telling us that what did the game did not treat it time, which is very difficult for difficult economic. everybody is really happy. i'm amazed at the amount of people that are here and have been here for hours in the ok, monica. thank you so much. we'll let you go for now. monica reporting from black diaries, so that's the scene in argentina. but what's happening over in morocco is that football fans there are also celebrating because their national team has arrived back home after historic world cup campaign. the atlas lion stunned the football world by defeating european giant spain and portugal in the knockout face to become

the 1st african and arab country to make it to the semi finals. because hock is joining us from robot. that's where the team touch down a little earlier on today. so nicholas, we've been speaking over the past few hours and you've just been saying that you've seen the crowds grow and grow and swell. when was the last time that we ever saw a crowd like this? in the moroccan capital not in a generation, according to people that i have spoken to and i think you know, windows iris has nothing on rabbit. there was as see an ocean of people in the streets right behind me. i'm just gonna step out of the shot so you can have a look. so people crowds gathering, chanting sir, sir, sir, which is go, go, go to the lions of the atlas, a roaring crowd, and as the bus drove sloppy, pass avenue mohammed 6. there was in a rupture of joy during, i have never seen anything quite like this. it's as if they had won the world cup

and this shows you how much repressed joy there must have been in this country and beyond. because so my people have been supporting this team and as the bus literally was driving from the airport to the palace of the king, a crowd coined running behind it. and this support for this team shows you how the lines of, of the atlas made so many people dream. there were children, families, women out there holding the portraits of some of the players. but what's interesting here, there isn't one player that stood out in the moroccan team. there wasn't one leonel messy, it was really this collective effort. and that's why it garnered such a collective effervescence here in the capitol, rabbits. and perhaps the unsung hero of this team is lead gregory, the coach who has really united this team. and so many of the members of the squad are dual dual citizens who have not been born in morocco. and this sense of fried

to come back to the parent into the country where their parents are, are born. i mean, it sent me shivers in my spine. this is something that so many people can relate to in the or world and africa and beyond. to come back to this country to this land, to being into being received the family. and that was really something magical that we've witnessed here. really a sense of history. and there is definitely as of before the world cup. and after the world cup caught cutter $0.20 that they've shattered the glass ceiling. that anything is possible, not just for players on this team, but also for managers. this manager, we rarely see a manager from arab or african descent coaching, a team that is playing in your but you see europe in players play and those feel certain he's really the coaches really open up the field and have shown that

anything is possible. i was speaking to some of the people down down it down in the crowd saying that they've showed us that anything is possible for this team. and i've even met someone who traveled all the way from holland back to morocco to see what was happening here. just to show this to his children, to witness this moment because it is truly magical. historic. thank you so much. that was hard for that update from robot. but there was a more subdued celebration, as the french team returned home. they were welcomed by thousands of found that the plastic con calls and paris france missed out on the chance to become the 1st team in 60 years to successfully defend the trophy. after losing on penalties in the final to argentina, the star striker kill you on about a did take home the world cup golden boot award for his 8th gold. the supporters in paris said they are so proud of what their team has achieved. anti terrorism

judges in tunisia has sentence, they, former prime minister to prison just hours after his arrest. ali larry is accused of sending fighters to syria, his opposition, and not the party denies the charges. they're calling his imprisonment a political attack. the parties among those demanding the resignation of president clay society. nurses in the u. k. are on the picket lines for the 2nd day this month. they're demanding better pay and conditions up to $100000.00 of them are taking part in the unprecedented strikes. jona hall reports from london, the wrong college of nursing. the nurses union used to be violently anti strike action. not anymore. it's been this nancy and they have no choice. i think it would be a time ration. you can see that you'll pay that decreasing. the cost of living.

it's just another go doing extra shift bank to make ends meet. but the ends, i mean, but you're more already doing. it wasn't long ago. the nurses were applauded on doorsteps up and down the country for their work saving lives. during the pandemic, now they're quitting in record numbers because clapping as they charged doesn't pay the rent and nor does the 4 percent pay rise. currently on the table, vanessa is demanding substantially more as much as 19 percent to make up. they say for years of low pay that's failed to keep up with inflation. the government says the money just isn't there to give the nurse is what they want, as well as giving the national health service what it needs to survive. you can't have one without the other say. and unless the government engages in paypal in the coming days, they would be more of this in the thing to come for

a point. well, it's an existentialist shortages and collect morality. and i think at the end we are committed to not just the basic plan and the nature of the thing to live and work in a company like london opinion polls suggest the public her on the nurses side. yeah. getting there support, despite the inevitable disruption being cause to know the edge of patient. and that's uncomfortable for the government determined not to give in to striking workers. while increasingly being blamed for bringing the national health service to the verge of collapse. joe, to hold al jazeera london in thailand. rescue efforts have gone into a 2nd day after our navy ships sank on sunday. so far as 76 personnel had been rescued, but 29 are still missing. and the window to find them is closing fast. as iran con,

while the cloudy and much cooler across this region, the strong winds could kick up some of those sandstorms. we have got warnings out for marital anya, as that strong wind blows in. it's much wire here. however, for the wet weather we have to head further south seas and heavy rain. it was and bob way as well as zambia, mozambique, and madagascar with more to come on thursday that show whether ah progress or a serious mistake. artificial intelligence is slowly invading every aspect of our lives. but very few of us really understand its capabilities. for better or worse, al jazeera excludes the impact of a oh and accessing vast amounts of, of personal data. data on al jazeera,

when clouds mount west struggle gives birth to a true passion where faith is more just where humanity defies. expectations with freedom is always worth fighting power, bold and untold stories from across asia and the pacific. 101 east on al jazeera. oh, a gun. the headlines around the world cup, winter surgeon, tina, under captain leno messy are being shared by tens of thousands of found the head of

a victory parade in the capital. these are the latest pictures of the fans there they are, they're gathering at the city center and one osiris on what's been declared a public holiday. and morocco is national football team has also arrived back home to a hero's welcome after making history of the world cub. the atlas lions, son, european giants, spain and portugal to become the 1st african and eric team to reach the semi final ukraine. president talk visited the front line city of buckman. it's been badly damaged and fighting with russian troops. there's a landscape situation in russian health park. the eastern ukraine is extremely difficult. the taliban has ordered a nationwide ban on university education for africa. females. it comes less than 3 months after thousands of girls and women shot university entrance exams across the country. this is being seen as another step. i have gone to stand hard line brewers

to crush women's right to education, and to freedom or diplomatic editor james base. joining us now from the un headquarters in new york to tell us what reaction there is from the united nations to this. well this came the news that the taliban not only now are banning girls from going to secondary skills. they're blanding, female students from university. the news came in a letter that emerged late at night in cobble from the higher education minister of the taliban. now it's all that this news would emerge after 9 o'clock at night cobble time. but let me tell you at the same time here in new york, the un security council was meeting for its regular meeting. happens every 3 months on afghanistan. and the fact that this took place at the same time, the security council meeting is taking place, i think is no coincidence at certainly what i mean, told by diplomats they think it's a very deliberate message that's being sent by the taliban. some of those in the

security council meeting, we've got the news of the tele bands ruling and certainly the a deputy us ambassador. and the british ambassador both asked to speak again in the security council to denounce this latest move. it also was condemned by the spokesperson of the un secretary general. it's clearly another broken promise from the tolliver. and we have seen since there take over and also in the past months, just a lessening of the space for women. not only in education, but access to public areas, their non participation in the public debate. it's another very troubling, troubling move and, and it's, it's difficult to imagine how a country can develop. oh,

can deal with all of it's the challenges that it has without the active participation of women and the education it's worth telling you that this latest decision, but it's all about is being condemned by everyone. it appears in the international community. certainly there are some countries that have better relations with the taliban than the western countries. i spoke to about the jung june, who is the chinese ambassador to the united nations as he came out of the security council. and he actually wasn't aware of this news when i told her about it, and he said it was most disappointing. i also spoke to the pakistan ambassador monia, i crime who also said this was very bad news and step that was very much in the wrong direction. ok, thank you so much, right, if the magic editor james bay is reporting from the un pakistan security forces, say that they've killed all 33 taliban fighters who took hostages at a detention center. the troops stormed the facility in the northwest of the country

where a gunman had been holding several people since sunday efforts to negotiate with the pakistani taliban hostage takers failed to pakistani soldiers were killed in the rescue operation, which officials described as successful. come hider has more from islamic bonds. this incident took place on sunday for that 3 days away. the hot water steak were actually held that detention center of the county department. over the ball were dead, and general gators then took them hot stage, and b h, d, a compound. after that, the government decided to guard internet length and also on the residence of the can to maintain area where this is situated. not to come out of the how did because i would have that dispute, but may i tag this at the military then car doors of the area. they were intense negotiations to try and find a baseball schedule men 2 days that failed an earlier today,

the $30.00 bond bug gift on one of their leaders issued a statement. art king dorothy went inside the compound not to sat down by this afternoon. shots rang out, they will bloom your black smoke. come found the military began your calculations with a special boar and secured to come bound. it's always the standard operating procedure . the clean up or mob operation is going on. get your check for any booby traps or any of the fight dead who may still be holding up and hiding inside that come peruse. congress is debating a bill to hold early elections for the 2nd time in less than a week. on friday legislators rejected similar efforts. president dena boulevard a once the election to be held in december next year. they're not due until 2026. bringing the vote forward is a key demand of the supporters of the else. the president petrocca c. m. he was

impeached on the change earlier this month, triggering days of unrest. marianna sanchez is joining us now live from the bus. so in the middle of political turmoil and peru, mariano, people are demanding new elections. congress is to hold elections ahead of time. what do we expect to going well, that is a big question. the reason because we are not sure really at this point, if the legislators will listen to the demand of the great majority of 83 percent. se opinion hold up for we really want new elections to be brought forward as soon as possible. now, there is a big division in congress. there are some will makers who are acknowledging this demand from, from most to move on. so they're saying yes, we have to vote immediately for new to bring forward the election, but there are 2 groups. the extreme left is and the extreme right is not saying we would like to bring that forward. but they want to change the constitution with

a new constituent of constitutional assembly and the right to so saying that there is absolutely no way that they will vote for constitutional reform with the constitutional assembly. and they are not going to vote in favor of this. if that is included now, they need $87.00 volts to be. 7 voted in 2 legislative periods, but if that does not happen today, if that doesn't happen in the 2nd legislative period, they could go for the 2nd option, which is get $66.00 volts and then called for a referendum for all of us to go to the polls and vote for new election, and that could happen in no less than 4 months during so mexico has also given asylum to the family of the former president petro casteel. what's the ongoing situation with that? in the midst of course, of this political crisis. that's right. during the

family of a former president can feel his wife leave yet, who's 2 children have taken a problem of the mexican embassy. we know that the president may look for a loan has said before, that's precedent for receiving castillo. have asked for them now. they have gone to the embassy this morning. they have taken a file up there, and the foreign minister of mexico has said that they are now negotiating for safe passage. if the family of castillo wants to go to mexico, this happening in the middle of the political crisis here when president, do you know a lot of the house and now that she will appoint a new prime minister at less than 15 days a be in office right, thank you so much. marianna sanchez reporting from the mom? well, many peruvians blamed the government for failing to tackle the rising cost of living and provide them with basic services. they feel the politicians have forgotten about them to home and met some of them. and one of the stuff on the outskirts of

the capital lima we met, because in us, one of the much is the overall to improve impeachment and imprisonment of ex president pedal castillo. but those protests are about much more than one man. many peruvian to angry at their anti political clubs ever wanted to show us why he invited us back to his neighborhood. this is when a vista on the outskirts of lima, where he lives with his wife. she'll be there for children. just 40 minutes from the high rise buildings and chic restaurants of the capital. here there are no sewage pipes, no hospitals, no schools, no paved roads. there's no running water either. this is the family system. they have to pay for a water truck which comes once a week to fill it. it's seldom in the days in which the children can wash and days

because when there's no more water, we help each other between neighbors. afterwards i sat down with them in the family home, the room partly made a top pool in one of the side of the hill. it's a small monument to the country's gaping inequality. i seek one that you say this morning and i eat it trains this hill could collapse at any moment that i could fall and hurt my children. but what can we do? it's the only home we have element. it's obvious that children and their education at the center of this house ever works in construction 12 hours a day to keep them fed and uniformed near school for his son, stephen is an hour away by the motor taxi and bus. my son, the community desperate for a local school, they've set aside this land paperwork. they say, authority even agreed to build it. they say that was 5 years ago. the plot still looks like this is

a fully the course element of the petitions comp. just to get our vote, they say we're going to get your water health clinic and it never happened this. nothing happened. look at our community that this is the reality for. so many peruvians who has gone out to marja a quarter of peruvians live in poverty, the same please, and complaints play out in a multitude of shanty towns and forgotten ru villages. what do you think the politicians? i'm an answered the call for hospitals. the schools are the things that you need who bought a k, because those who govern us have always been corrupt. they start to project and hold them up for years to complete them and fleeting the budget. they've always done it. we have resources, but they take them and the people are left forgotten. that's why they're angry. while allow, the bank is still spilling out onto the streets in the nation that's felt let down by the politicians for too long. john home and al jazeera lima indigenous leaders and climate activists are welcoming the deal signed at

a un summit to protect nature and promote conservation. more than 190 states have back. the chinese brokered agreement. negotiators have agreed to safeguard a 3rd of the world's lands and oceans by 2030. currently, 17 percent of terrestrial let and 10 percent of marine areas are protected. the summit agreed to finance bio diversity projects in the developing world. it's pledge to secure $200000000000.00 in the next 8 years. the deal fall is days of intense negotiations. the comp 15 summit and montreal had been regarded as a last chance to put nature on a path to recovery. we can now speak to marco lumber teenie, who's a director general of the world wildlife fund international. joining us from montreal, canada, welcome to the al jazeera news hour. so the deal has been signed disregarded as a milestone by, by many people. but i suppose now the hard work really begins and nots implementation. what challenges do you foresee there?

well, absolutely. they'll missions, we will to welcome it. it's a moment for nature, the style agreement for nature and to dimensions to his success. on one hand, countries needs to promises that allow conservation of metro atlanta. and when it financial flows, sewing, particularly from the nurse to the south where both of these higher and currently that means the protecting it are lower. so the financial mobilization dimension was the most difficult part of the negotiations is critical. but we're very pleased with the level of ambition that has been agreed trail. do you think that this is enough to to stem sort of the, the biodiversity last that's been witness. so far, so the green tab, it talks about 3 main pillars. if you like, one is the one you mentioned to 30 percent, a protection of land inland waters in ocean and which is about doubling the current

land and order playing the one on the ocean. but then there is also an event, important target or destination. we lost 50 percent of the good land restoration is another important target. then finally, that is the last pillar which results in credit report, which is about sustainability. main. sustainably manage the 70 percent that are not the right to protect it. so this is about about getting sustainable, fishing, sustainable ways of that mining, etc, etc. so the 3 go together. and in fact, the, the mission of the convention isn't just about 30 percent of the restoration, but he's about of free delivering a reversal of nature loss. so hunt and reverse in the transmitter is really the equivalent to the 1.5 degrees agreed 7 years ago. what is the filament mean for some of the african countries? which of course, are home to large, tropical rainforests, just for africa,

countries, but also sunny station can trans, you know, medical center in june of developing countries where there is a lot on this is a perfect and, and now they're very limited means, but mean for them disagreement mean what is or since coming their way, but also through acting financial publics, subsidies and, and public invest private investment. it today a handful of both directing those investments in a way to implementing the nature friendly. we can finally have funniest be more valuable standing rather than cut down right now. but in many developing countries, no choice, the details of the furnace. it's more valuable than the other services i provide from the, the different news from their regulate, the kind of run they store both services on it. and in that way, we will finally see forest more valuable depending not how much of

a sticking point was the issue of finances when it came to the this deal. they get negotiating of this deal because what we did, we did see, excuse me, as the countries like the d r. c, which race concerns about develop nations responsibility for funding conservation in developing countries. so where does the responsibility lie? well, this one survey realizes everyone because everyone has to conserve nature from fact, normally government, private business investors and consumers. but when it comes to actual financial flows and sources to protect the nature areas, but also sustainable management that we need, then the north in each nation's, the ones that had the financial meeting best in the south. and it is the principal that has been established agreement. so the $200000000.00 that you mentioned in your opening isn't mainly funding that will go to developing countries for them to

protect a common good, a global common something that is actually beneficial for everyone in the world. the amazon, southeastern forest, and traffic infernal spoken to the fish it is in the ocean, and all global commons that are important to every single person of the planets tell us what's at stake if people and countries do not commit to, to their part of implementation. and from what you've seen, what's been the impact of a not only climate change, but also habitat loss, pollution and development. what sort of impacts is that all had on biodiversity well, but it has been declining sharply and constantly. i think in the last 70 years, we have just a nice the just sent me is going to be fun for to put index to can you about the 69 percent declining? go round populations or about the last 50 years, which is a blink of an eye compared today. i mean, it's have, you know,

many of the species been on the planet so there is no doubt rather to the county, but there's no just about one that i, which of course will, can we have the model to exist and preserve it is all about cells they, they also by diversity is all about the fish that providing the attrition and for too many of us is about them. off the butterflies debate. pony clubs is about is about the whole balance of the planets in which our economy, our house, our social cohesion depends. this is also the new message of this, of this conference. nature matters. it matters to us all and i think is a global response or anything. we're so excited that almost when the countries reflected that and that would be community because then they got somebody, measurable, it will be transported to minutes in which county will contribute or not agreement . so is a great moment for that. thank you so much. my quote number, thank you for joining us from montreal. thank you. over the past 20 years,

bangladesh is capital has lost more than 2 thirds of its wetlands to land grabs, unregulated development is raising the risk of floods. understand your child re reports. it's making jacka, one of the world's most unlivable cities, with the population of more than 20000000 people, dark eyes, a mega city, and the economic harbor, bangladesh. the rapidly growing economy has led to high demand for land, but it comes at a considerable cost to the environment and estimated 70 percent off its wetlands have been lost to unplanned development. in the past 2 decades. dock, i used to have canals and wetlands all around it. now they no longer exist. it's all concrete. many people have moved from rural areas to city tree rivers and circle decor, but they're polluted and the surrounding forest are gradually disappearing. as the city limits, expand, environmental experts say in many instances,

land grabbers fill up wetlands with waste and send them to get a lease agreement from the government and gradually build commercial and housing projects on it. the process eventually legalizes, what start says something illegal. urban migration is also increasing as a result of climate change. more people are migrating to dhaka from low lying areas which are prone to flooding a sea levels rise. body loaded. i left boiler island a long time ago. my ancestors, families, and homes got washed away by the sea, so i moved to dark, awful work. one study suggests 2000 people movie or every day. authorities said there is a shortage of adequate housing infrastructure and water and waste management systems, which is increasing the spread of diseases. yes. land grab yes. laundry grabbing is a problem in the canals and river are narrowing and losing her death due to the dumping of pollution, which causes flooding. the government has taken the initiative to fight against

land grubbers and those who occupy parks and other spaces are been planner, said development projects need to be regulated. if the government wants to reclaim wetlands and expend sustainably, nor did our cocora do, nama did. there are laws and a plan for the development of the city, but these are hardly implemented or, and forced by the city development authorities with district administration or law enforcement agencies. the category of the un says duyka could become the world's fort most populous mega city by 2030. but few believe it's prepared to handle this groat sandwich. children. i'll visit our deca, human rights activists and indonesia concerns a new criminal code will stifle free speech and the world's 3rd largest democracy. anyone seen as insulting the president could face jail time? jessica washington reports from jakarta for more than a decade. tony milwaukee on his painted sum of indonesia is best known politicians for national newspapers and magazines. he's known for his unflattering depictions
