a 2020 ah! 4 scientists, the evidence is irrefutable. but america, climate change deniers 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 ought to on a jazeera, a lot of the stories that we cover heidi complex. so it's very important that we make them as understandable as we can do as many people as possible, no matter how much they know about a given crisis or issue with the smell of death is overpowering as al jazeera correspondence. that's what we strive to do. ah,

this is al jazeera ah, but they're on the cloud. this is a nice our life and her coming up in the next 60 minutes. the us house of representatives, folks for a new speaker off the kevin mccarthy, is fully normally international condemnation of the israel's far right. national security ministers, intrusion into the alex and mos compound in occupied east jerusalem. tens of thousands of mourners pay their final respects to football. legend pele is, is coughing, arrives at its final resting place, picking up the pace of life in china is more corona virus restrictions placed on those looking to leave the country. and i would have a national, your sports news or something, say facade, christiano. now that has been unveiled, the disney saudi club, i. this was

a different vision of the country. ah, said the newest politicians are voting for new speaker for the house of representatives as congress gathers for the 1st time this year. the republicans are taking control of the house after a narrow window november's mid term elections. republican kevin mccarthy is seen as the favorite and has been nominated alongside democrat hacking jeffries. but my coffee has struggled to get total backing from his party in the lead up to the votes. i will speak to our white house correspondent, kimberly hock at shortly. but 1st let's go to john henderson, who's standing by for is that capitol hill? sorry, john, that said kevin mccarthy was expected to be nominated as speaker by now. what's happened? he was nominated indeed, as was hakim, deaf jeffries, the democrat from new york,

who was nominated by the democratic party. what is expected to happen? what usually happens is that the party with the most votes, which in this case is the republicans elect their leader. but it seems likely that for the 1st time in a 100 years, they won't do that. on the 1st ballot there been a number of holdouts about 5 republicans who have said they absolutely will not vote for mccarthy. and then there are a number more who say they want certain concessions and they've asked for things like they want one person to be able to call a vote in order to out to remove the speaker, the house that would diminish the power of the speaker. tremendously nancy pelosi had a lot more power than that when she was in office. republicans have previously had rules that were not that strict, but were allowed a certain number of members to void out the speaker. this would seriously weaken the speaker kevin mccarthy said this morning, he's not willing to do that. that happened in a closed door meeting with republicans. he said, i'm not going anywhere. he said i earned this job. but right now it does look like

those holdouts have not been satisfied. they want a number of things, specific committee assignments, certain investigations into the president has 100 right in his son and his business dealings. those are things that mccarthy is likely to allow, but it does not look like this 1st boat is going to end with a decision on who will be the speaker of the us house of representatives for the 1st time in a 100 years. so john, what's going on here is a breakdown of party unity among the republicans. essentially this is something has happen to the republican party over the last 14 or 15 years since the beginning of the tea party, this radical financially conservative group, which is really eventually many people said, petered out. what really happened was the rest of the republican party just sort of seen the mantle of the chief party. and republicans will often refer to the democrats as the radical left democrats. but in fact, the move that's going on here is a radical move happening by 4, right?

republicans rebelling against their own leadership and if enough of them were to rebel and not. busy vote it is conceivable that unlikely that the democrats would have more votes and the republicans, and they'd be able to put hakim jeffries in the leadership position. that's not what's likely to happen. what's likely to happen is that there will be numerous ballots until they can decide on a candidate. maybe mccarthy gives enough concessions in order to win over the number of boats he needs. or maybe in the end, there'll be some agreement on a consensus candidate. someone else possibly, his deputy, steve's lease of louisiana. there are a couple other people who have been mentioned as possibilities the longest this process is ever gone on was between 855 and 856 when it lasting for 2 months. we're not expecting that to happen here. we hope this will be resolved today in one way or another. but right now it looks like the 1st vote will come with out of illusion

and i'm just getting an update here. there are 4 votes against mccarthy by republicans. one more person votes against him that are going to go to a 2nd ballot. all right, that's a picture. and capitol hill that says been across to the white house. kimberly, how is standing by that, and kimberly is joe biden, looks on, excuse me, looks on what's unfolding, what's going through his mind, how to get to get anything done for the next 2 years. because he's watching all of this and thinking, if republicans are willing to attack themselves in each other, what are they going to do to me? ah, well, you heard john, they're talking a little bit about what they already have planned for. his son hunter bide in there already planning investigations inter 100 biden's business dealings and whether or not any of that touched the president, whether on his presidential campaign or whether not he was in office. but in terms of jo biden's legislative agenda. and you have to remember that the white house and

congress are co equal branches of government, in other words, if equal in terms of power. and this could really paralyze both bodies in some ways because joe biden has to sign into law, whatever is passed on capital hill. so really they have to work in tandem. which means in terms of getting anything done legislatively, there might be nothing done in the next 2 years. that's not good for the american people. so joe bivens looking at all of this thinking, you know, i wanted to put forward in assault weapons ban that might not happen. he knows that republicans are thinking about investigating his afghanistan withdrawal. he's not too excited about bad. and they're also thinking about talking a, looking into what they consider to be co bid 19 mismanagement. so that's another big problem for the president. so he's watching all of this whole thing that the republicans are going to take the high road. but already we've seen that may not be

the case that does not bode well for the next 2 years as the president's legislative agenda. my committee, thanks for that for the time being can be held great over putting that from the white house. let you know, speak to laura, blessing. she's a senior fellow at georgetown university government 1st institute joins us from dallas and texas. laura, so mccarthy battling for the role he wants his speaker of the house. so why is the such disagreement amongst republicans about this? do you think that's a really good question. i think that we're seeing a preview of a lot of the legislative new bring that's to come because we have a fracture house republic. ready conference in general. so the house freedom caucus has been very difficult for governance, particularly for things like a book, abrasions, build, pass the federal budget, but for other matters as well. and while we have extremely narrow legislative margin that came to what nancy pelosi was managing for the past 2 years,

kevin mccarthy is not nancy pelosi and the challenges he has with factions within his own conference are far greater. so creates a bit of a drama right now, doesn't it been in effect? does it really make any difference as far as the current administration is concerned, they're still going to have a stonewall for many of the policies they want to put through. that's a great question. i think we're looking at a very difficult time passing a federal budget and i think we're looking at some real concerns about the debt ceiling, which we are projected to come up against in the 1st half of 2023. we've had a lot of different members of the republican conference saying that they're willing to vote against it, that they're only willing to vote for in terms of majors cuts to domestic spending . you know, they've listed a number of different different programs that they would like to significantly work

. and, you know, that's, that's something that is a major concern both for the united states, but also for the rest of the world. what about the issue of investigations count investigations like the january, the 6th, investigational, and also those that the republicans want to commence? right, so the big january 6 committee that is just, you know, released, that's funny. voluminous a report that's going to be discontinued by, by the republicans, as one would imagine. they are going to come up with a number of different investigations of their own. you're putting identifying special committees for that explicit purpose. and these are really going to range. so these will include more partisan endeavors, such as going to just looking into 100 biding, but also potentially some bipartisan actually looking at. i'd be problematic with the role from afghanistan, which should to get some bipartisan interest. ok,

and what about ukraine? speaking of those kind of interventions could good question. so our house republicans have a less a significant lesser appetite for funding ukraine than our senate public. so there is some difference within the party itself and certainly within the house republican conference. but this is going to be more difficult to support ukraine with the current level of financial support that the united states is given them so far, lower blessing, great to get your analysis. appreciate that very much. are a blessing speaking to us from dallas and texas. thank you. welcome at. ah, that is really far. i minister, it's my been given intrusion into the alex must compound has been called deeply provocative. national security minister ben giver entered the site on tuesday,

angering muslims right around the world. it is one of its lamps, holy sides, housing the dome of the rock and the alex and mosque enact the ham and was 0 is really been love you. the storming of alexa must, by the is really minister, been ga via this morning, constitutes a serious challenge to the feelings of the palestine and people you recall on our people, to confront such incursions that aim to make an x, a must a jewish temple. this is a violation of all international norms, valleys, conventions, laws. and israel's pledges to the american president was it was several palestinian groups including hamas in garza, have condemned. this had been given intrusion. hm. i said it won't sit idly by it's my been given it is a controversial far politician known for his anti palestinian racist remarks. his call for greatest jewish, greater jewish access to the alex and moscow compound. sorry, heart has more now from occupied his truth. vancouver is quite the controversial

figure, probably the most controversial in this new government that was sworn in just a few days ago. this is very much in keeping with his personality. it's not the 1st time he visited, but it is the 1st time that it is rainy minister has, has, i wouldn't even say visited israelis call it, visited the palestinians, call it storming of oxer must compound. i just want to give you some contexts and i can run jihad is going to show you what it oxer most compound is. it's just behind me here. you'll see that the golden dawn, that's the dome of the rock. and we've also got the area that space around that that includes the mosque, and that area is called the compound. it's a said wholly a site for most muslims, off the micah and medina and saudi arabia. it's a very significant for the muslim world. and we've had a lots of reaction because this is not just a potential of causing publication and violence that could potentially happen not

just reaction from the international community, but within the liquid party as well. members, including the opposition, be to who is also the former prime minister. and i just want to read to the reaction that we've heard from international reaction. we've had the boss that it's israel say that the us biden is ministration has made it clear since this incident this morning that the israeli government, that opposes the israeli government and opposes steps that could home the status quo in the holy sites. will israel's foreign prime minister in current opposition leader? yeah. le. pete has criticized. been give as intrusion, let be treated. the state of israel does not accept dictates from anyone regarding security, but to quarrel with half the world just so that then give a will spend 30 minutes on the temple. mount is political irresponsibility said, an incredible weakness of netanyahu in front of his ministers. the palestinian news agency wafa is reporting that president bermuda bass is called for

a session at the un security council to discuss the israeli intrusions at the alex of mos combat the un secretary general has addressed. when givers actions, the secretary general has always stressed the importance of upholding the status quo or in the holy sites in line with the special role of that the hashemite, a kingdom of jordan at the secretary general calls on all to refrain from from step that it could escalate tensions in and around the holy sites or let him have been given has been a controversial figure for many years. he's a former youth coordinator of the ultra national cock party which was outlawed in 1994 of being branded a terrorist group. he's a lawyer by trade, who's represented a number of far right activists, accused of hate crimes against palestinians is also in the past. been convicted of incitement to racism, men of destroying property, and has called for in his words, disloyal palestinians to be expelled from israel. let's take this on,

we can explore this further with algebra, senior political analyst marquisha, who joins us from london. so mo, and this are a coordinated walk if you will, or what was the intentions. you think of this really government in this? well clearly there is a complicity between the prime minister and his own minister about this. so suddenly the minister wanted to get his way and they so somehow worked out are a compromise if you will, whereby this cow and mouse, a game that's been played quite dangerous. there. my saying jerusalem is done in a way whereby the cat is not there or not, pun intended, to force. but clearly at 7 am in the morning or 12 minutes. and i know attempt to provoke the palestinians, and the arab and muslim world did not work according to plan, but it did work to inflame the souls or more his own supporters. so it's quite

political on the part of the minister who wants to prove once and again that he's that master or of his party, the master of his ministry. which in, on, by itself, by the way, it's quite dangerous to say a controversial is a bit ice diplomatic. this guy is dangerous, you know, far right fanatic and her and to be placed as minister of national security. it's like putting a pyromaniac in charge of her fire department and in his 1st mission to do that is clearly paving the way of what a very dangerous time to come. right, said what then, do you think about the repercussions of this? said twofold. first with the policy is and 2nd or within these really government well, i think the person is have learned their lesson in the sense that they're not going

to work according to israel's own agenda. they have their own agenda when they escalate. and when they deescalate and clearly those in charge of guys are not interested in another war because been via was one as to provoke one. but her response proper will be coming. the thing is, this is quite sad to watch, is that the part of seniors would run through the united nations asking for yet another condemnation, or yet another resolution or yet another statement, which really is end of the day meaningless. because what the palestinians needs to day is not a is not the united nations. they're what they need as a united nation. meaning they themselves need to unite. and now that there is a dangerous israeli government or far right, is really government in place that is more than ready to intensify the occupation to make those sort of provocative steps in jerusalem. but we're not saying that unit the coming there had had a meeting in l. g a few months ago,

but nothing came out of it were not really not really. and as long as the palestinians not united the israelis are continue to provoke, will continue to colonize and will continue to do whatever they want to do in jerusalem. and the rest of the occupied territories good netanyahu person than jo. he says that the status quo will be maintained this i think that's the sort of the deal that's been done between him and his minister. so his minister can go around and provoke as he wishes. but the prime minister has his eyes elsewhere. he has his eyes on saudi arabia, which he has been emphasized, almost daily. the need for him to normalize relations with saudi arabia or so you're able to all reservation with his right. he also has his eyes on washington, and he's basically promised that by the administration that the buck stops with him . and hence, he does not wanna do that sort of provocation where the entire muslim world,

and certainly his very immediate neighbors, but seniors jordanians and egyptians would be just as upset already. the condemnations are coming from us or normalize relations with israel, life, the united arab emirates. so clearly the prime minister has a different sort of prior to that his dangerous minister. but having said that, it is the prime minister who formed this government. it is the prime minister was in charge of this government. and to my mind what he is playing games with international committee, i think it's he who has articulated the manifesto of his government that says that israel has exclusive rights or what historical palestine meaning including jerusalem, the west bank, and so so forth. so really it is prime minister netanyahu at one point says that that school stays on the other, he continues to colonize, continues to form the kind of government that will definitely a swallow or try to swallow the rest of palestine or m. r and things that long

before in london, when a palestinian teenager has been killed, drink and is ready raid near bethlehem and the occupied west bank. the palestinian health ministry says 15 year old i been i what was shot dead by israeli forces is ready. military says it shot someone involved in what it called violent confrontations with its soldiers. israel also made dawn raids on palestinian homes until crim jeanine and cafe for duke on tuesday. plenty more still ahead here. the news are including could the us help resolve germany's energy crisis as it tries to scale back its reliance on russia. south korea paying big bucks for babies with the government now offering incentives to young turns. and in sport nfl plan dumb are handling this in critical condition off to suffering cardiac arrest during ah

so the coffin of football legend pele has been taken into the cemetery and the brazilian city of santos, for private burial service. more than a $150000.00 people including new present lewis and nasa alluded to silver pay their respects in the city where he began. his career died on thursday at the, at the age of 82. let's written out to monica yankee, joins us live from santa monica. so tell us about the day and we're now yes, all we're standing in front of our, the vertical cemetery where bella has finally been put to rest. his family is still in here. his son, ed g o, just came out and thanked everyone for the support. it's been that a 24 hour wake even where the president himself attended. ah,

just died at 82 years of age or a monica, thanks for that one. again, here we're putting there from santos. china has condemned to move by several countries to impose co 19 restrictions on people traveling from its borders, who are now required to present a negative covert 19 to us. the united states, japan, italy, and cutter among the nations are introduced the new measures due to a reported search in infraction. when we went onqua diesel wheat at angleton, we believe that some countries have imposed entry restrictions targeting only chinese travelers. this decision like scientific basis and some practices are unacceptable. we firmly oppose any attempts to manipulate epidemic prevention measures in order to achieve political goals. we will take counter measures based on the principle of reciprocity. in fact, it was covered 90 measures at ease in china. life in major cities is starting to return to normal. but the medical system is under strain with many suspecting that beijing is under reporting the number of cases, katrina, you reports now from beijing. in wintry beijing. the pace of life is

brazilian a football legend has arrived at his final resting place to be given. city of santa large crowds gathered on the street where he israel's new security minister, his intruded into the compound housing and the new company, roger string condonation bias. really opposition? well, as arab countries, cutter saudi arabia, georgia has been a leader, her son as rela, has warned that any change the status quo, it likes mosque, may blow up the entire region. he said, the group will not allow any change in the rules of engagement and deterrence, lebanon, and is ready to go. great length with israel, edge the well to rein in israel so that there is no new war. but policy, new groups and gaza has spoken out about when give as intrusion into the compound nasa bell. and the ideal ma, how ala al gabana, we consider this cowardly attempt by ben giving her a dangerous escalation and

a provocation of the palestinians. and the arab and muslim nations this good spark a religious war in the region. danny memorials have been held for the 3 kurdish victims killed in attack in paris in december. a 69 year old man has been charged with murder for the shootings at a kurdish cultural center as armor. bon jovi reports from the prison suburb where the attack oh, chance anti is the company the coffins of the 3 kurdish refugees killed in paris on december, the 23rd. the funeral seems to have united the kurdish community across europe. thousands gathered in a prison suburb to pay their respect. many have come from other regions of france and neighboring countries. the community is disappointed and afraid after the kurds were shot dead in the 10th district of the city, which is all to a large goodish community. relatives of the dead, an act of a se, there insulted as curds. and as frank citizens,

because they feel the state has failed in its obligations. it's yamato lotta. we want justice and truth. she will used to conspiracies and turkey. but in france, we would like to know what's behind the us, who did the killer meat when he was in prison. who is really this person being called a madman. we want answers you mercer and we are from syria, iran, iraq, and turkey. they're also angry at the goblins in their home countries. the gathering provided an opportunity to express their political views as well. oh, certainly, if we talk herds, flane repression would be safe in europe. but when we are targeted in the heart of paris, that raises questions on how we say european countries. the anger is also directed at french authorities for not declaring it a terrorist attack. and somebody titian's agree roster that the french state must be more transparent. the fact that the crime is qualified as

a terror attack shouldn't be related to the color of the skin of the perpetrators. a racist attack is a political act and a terror attack. the 69 year old white male accused of the murders is awaiting a formal investigation and trial. the bodies will now be taken to the kurdish region of northern iraq and turkey for burial. general marks 10 years since the killing of the activists in paris and the latest 3 killing have reopen all whom they've been demanding an investigation for the last decade. but are afraid that once again, they're dead will not just from a job. it all the vera paris, tens of thousands of railway workers in the united kingdom, a holding 5 day strike, pay and conditions remain at the center of the dispute. hurry faucet reports from what is usually one of london's busiest stations the british commuters. it's a case of new year, same strikes, tens of thousands of rail workers from the r n. t union began a 2 day walk out on tuesday kicking off a 5 day run of industrial action across the rail network. this 1st strike leading

a skeleton service in some parts of the country. none at all in others have been really hectic. especially getting to work has been really difficult. but fortunately, again, you know, with technology, it does help that we can work from home. i completely understand that people have the right to strike and i support them straight in christmas. the last thing you wanna do isn't have delay. travel trains are still running, particularly at major city hubs like this one, but they're running about 20 percent of normal capacity starting later and finishing earlier in the day. passengers being told not to travel at all possible those who are making journeys, having to plan accordingly. the unions won't pay awards that reflect inflation currently running at nearly 11 percent and they're resisting proposed changes to working conditions, including more driver, only trains, and more mandatory sunday working. and members work in law as we phone up in the

air. and their conditions will be ripped to pieces. they avoid it know to that, and not it wasn't even 1st in the, the thinking about pay hundreds and then there's a beating context saying don't throw our conditions away in return for a very modest pay deal. the government rejects the unions charged that it's preventing the rail companies from making a deal at the same time, insisting inflation matching pay awards with hon. the economy. there's a fair, reasonable, pale for on the table which 2 of the trade unions have accepted the r m t sadly decided to reject it has to be an offer that's fair, reasonable for the taxpayer, as well as for the people who and industry and we will go to see some reform in the way the industry operates so that we have a proper 7 day road way that passengers can rely on network rail which runs and maintains the tracks says such a deal is within touching distance. there are reports that improved benefits rather than pay or under consideration. so now though, this winter of strikes, i'm disruption. rows on hurry, full set, al jazeera london,

well medical professionals in the case national health services, they're under pressure. that is, quote, on intolerable and unsustainable the world college of emergency medicine says delays in care could account for up to 500 deaths each week. several hospitals, health trust and ambulance services declared critical incidents over the festive period. the critical incident is a situation where the substance could not operate properly, where we challenge is more now from london. when you get these kind of warnings every winter really that the n h s is in crisis, but i think there is a panic at the moment that the system does seem to be in the midst of some sort of significance breakdown when it comes to health care numbers tell stories i it is a stat for you. if i heard got myself ill or injured in november and take myself to accidents and emergency is a pretty good chance that i would have been one of nearly 40000 people that had to

wait more than 12 hours to be admitted to a hospital or a department now that is an increase of 355 percent on the same stats from the previous november. and it's delays like this that the presidents of the royal college of emergency medicine is saying a causing $300.00 to $500.00 extra debts, not per month, but how weak. and he is saying that this is on good day sir. it's not a guesstimate. there is good, still a statistics to back that up. and he's warning against a listening to government figures who he says might be trying to spin this as being down to the pandemic. he says it's not. incidentally, government ministers has come out and said that this is largely down to the pandemic. many leaders in the german government have campaigned for an end to fossil fuels and atomic energy. those goals been put on hold as an energy crisis intensifies and sabrina arguing, continued use of nuclear power and fossil fuels are the only way to solve it.

dominant kindnesses. 2022 was the year when coal was king, had one point it was providing more than a 3rd of all. germany's energy with the war in ukraine, taking russian hydrocarbons off the market. coal from elsewhere became the easiest go to energy sauce. power stations were reactivated to burnett liquefied natural gas, or l. n. g was another watchword, new terminals were built on the north sea coast to accommodate supertankers carrying it, and a long term deal to acquire 2000000 tons of contrary. and n g each year was signed. but in the short term, analysts say ministers will have to adapt their green agenda. they will do more of what they have done already. foster additional energy supplies make sure they can come in also through germany on g terminals and a huge step forward will be to reduce demand further. a lot needs to be done in

household still because building needs to be need ventilated. heating systems need to be changed to can't do all of this in 2023, but it needs to start now. the other metaphorical elephant in the room is nuclear. 3 reactors, which would you to go off stream permanently, have been temporarily camped in operation. this provides around 6 percent of the energy germany uses annually, but that's as far as the green party and government is prepared to go on to nuclear sentiment is so entrenched in germany in large parts of the population that it's going to be relatively hard to, to really, especially for the greens, if they want to keep their credibility to, to go on to, to prolong nuclear power indefinitely. maybe for a few more months, maybe for a year. but i don't think in the long run in germany, nuclear power will have any future. but that sort of view is not shared by many in the german parliament who believe nuclear energy has a clear role to play. and for some time yet, mid anim,

stick with the dead just by extending the life of the remaining 3 nuclear power plant, we ultimately achieve ball to initial. instead, we need to continue to operation until at least the end of 2024. that is what we are proposing now, and we need a new feel for them. and to contemplate, such a move is painful for many in the current governments. most of them have spent their entire lives campaigning against fossil fuels and nuclear power. and yet, this is where the decades of deepening dependence on russian energy has brought them. environmentalism may provide fire in their bellies, but it seems unlikely to provide much heat and light in millions of homes this winter. dominant cane al jazeera berlin. well, the 1st shipment of liquefied natural gas from the united states as arrived in germany, the vessel called the maria energy is loaded with around 170000 cubic meters of l. n. g. and that's enough to around $50000.00 german homes for

a year before the war and ukraine. russia supplied more than half of germany's natural gas demand. thomas had, donal is an energy and less than lecture at the high school of governance. and he says, the supply of l n g from the u. s. has come through more quickly than anybody expected . this is another front of the war that everybody knows about the hot war in ukraine. hooton's not doing very well there. his military. so he's counting and the energy war with europe, especially by cutting off and restricting the natural gas to europe to cause economic difficulties. and it is causing economic difficulties to cause the, the alliance and support of ukraine to split. and so far they feel strong and they're doing quite well the united states, as you mention, fighting promised last year to send a lot of extra l n g last year. and he did the same thing this year. some people sort of made fun of it. where is he going to find it? but in both cases, it came from the united states quicker and sooner than anybody expected. so

a lot of the russian guess is the made up for by ellen g from the united states in the short term it, it doesn't like the terminal that's opened up. well, it opened up actually a week or 2 ago, but that's receiving the natural good, the l n g from the united states to the, from the co eskew pass on the texas border from that one when it's at full tilt should provide about 10000000000 cubic meters a day. there's other plans that will provide that are coming online soon. that will provide 5 to 7000000 cubic meters a day over the next 2 to 3 years. and the germans have built, and the 1st couple stations that they would have normally taken about 4 or 5 years . they didn't about 5 months. so, you know, in the german economy wants to do something industry, they can get it done. they shouldn't have relied on russian gas for all these years . well, no way has sets a record for sales were lectric cause new figures just nearly 80 percent of new cars registered last year were batch part. that's far ahead of the european union

where the figure was less than one percent. electric cars have benefited from tax break fees for road road tolls and public parking noise. government one's all new car to be electric and executive analysts that i see cars dot com and the forbes also contributes. he says there are several factors that could limit the self electric. we see the percentage of new vehicle sales in norway going toward e v. 's, but we don't necessarily see the sales growth and if anything there's been some contraction for the last few years. and so i'm wondering how many people in norway, they're either new car buyers and the tax breaks help them or they're not necessarily new car buyers. and they're just hanging on to their internal combustion vehicle because they don't want to, they want to face the potential long term issues that we're talking about with ranging variety. and so what we're going to see in the next few years could be interesting. you could see new car sales dropping, but there being a lot of ease,

but still being a huge percentage of norway. people that just hang onto their older car. everyone likes to think that they can charge the car at home and, and a lot of people obviously have electricity at their house. they get a level to charger, not less than charge overnight. but if you want to travel more than the cars range, or you want to run multiple errands during the day, and you have to use the public system, there's really still no good country that's got that handled the closest might be the supercharger network. that tesla has, for instance, in the us, but again, you can find big pockets of the u. s. that have no coverage, and most cars just, it makes people very nervous. they want to drive a long distance and if they can't depend on their home charger, it's very nervous farther. south korea has one of the lowest fertility rates in the world, and the government wants to change that. it's increasing childcare port. tried encourage young people to stop families. eunice came reports now from so the 1st babies of the year in south korea twins held by their grandmothers and another buy a new father. a welcome sound in a country that has been at

she walked away from a career and education consulting, where she had her eldest he on. she welcomes the cash for additional expenses such as nappies and bottles. but the real help she needs an extra pair of hands is still out of reach. that but kind of service that i really need. because since i have 2 children, if one is sick, then i need to go to the hospital, but i have to carry my infant 2nd child to go to the hospital with my 1st child. and it will be very difficult because it's not like my husband can be here like 247 . he needs to go out to work. when sociology says the government has missed the mark, pointing to young people who face low wages and unstable employment prospects, which leads to increased competition and brewing distrust between genders. children are a life long commitment and many young i'll go find it difficult to think about being

responsible for to one person's life when they're not sure about their future. so furthermore, some yobbos are constantly exhausted and higher as a result of working long hours as lifespans increase economist project that by 2050, for every 100 working south koreans, there will be 76 dependence. both minors and the elderly. the government will need to decide how to prevent the demographic imbalance from tipping into a fight over a limited resources. you'd have kim al jazeera soul, a still ahead here? no sir. we got support coming up to stalls from the world cup a coincide at him and be a game details coming up with jim. ah
