a report from the u. k. on building small energy to combat climate change. ah, in look into the plan. we begin with the major humanitarian aid operation in turkey and syria, where millions of people are in desperate need of essential supplies following to devastating earthquakes last week. the u. n says 99000000 syrians have been effected and as appealed for nearly 400000000 dollars in aid, dozens of n g i was working there of cold for better access. and a massive scale up in assistance was comes as aid is starting to move across to more border crossings from to kia after the sod government going to the un permission to use them on tuesday. while we have a team of correspondence covering the disaster, stephanie decker is in the car. i'm a massage. russell said there is an argument. natasha. again,
8:03 am
m is in tie providence. but we begin coverage with this report and that harder. she's been in dallas in city. there are no international rescue teams here. no international aid workers. the people of northwest syria have been left to deal with a disaster on their own. last week's earthquakes that struck southern turkey, devastated many areas in this country as well. their lives now a pile of dust. we are vegetable sellers, our shops were underneath our homes. now we lost everything. we're sleeping in the streets. no one from the international community is helping us. gender is, was one of the towns and the opposition controlled enclave worse hit by the 2 quakes. it's the 9 of that disaster. rescuers who have been appealing for heavy equipment still haven't received any as they remove the remaining bodies and the rubble across the border and southern turkey are missing. survivors are still being
8:04 am
found alive and pulled from the ruins. here in northwest syria, the search and rescue effortless called off on day 5, because rescuers didn't have the resources they say could have saved many lives. so far, the aid entering the opposition north is not enough for people's needs. the un says syrian president, bashar i said, has now given approval to use more border crossings from 30th. a statement that has angered the opposition, the united nation seem to look at best. that's it is their secretary general. they're waiting for him to give them the ok 9 days into a major earthquake. i don't know in the history of the united nations that they had not responded to something. it's the hardest area inferior in government control, territories. planes loaded with humanitarian aid have been arriving continuously there also where united nations agencies are based in the north you and has
8:05 am
acknowledged failing serial with an adequate response. it says that will change with many here are doubtful. there will be any sustained international health minima. the we have no heaters, no blankets, nothing, just a tint of our heads or shops were destroyed. who will help us to rebuild our knives, and the scars of 12 years of war have still not healed in a region where millions are displaced and poor. now there is a new crisis for people who sole purpose has long been to survive. then there was ita, northwest syria, interfere the number of people being found alive is getting smaller by the day. but despite the old, there are still some incredible stories of survival. a 77 year old woman fatima god was rescued from the rubble after being trapped for almost 212 hours. an ottoman stephanie tucker has more from kara raman brush. the epicenter of the 2nd quake. 2
8:06 am
young men were pulled out of the rubble on tuesday, but those stories of joy are becoming less and less. it is overwhelmingly the dead that are emerging from their homes while we're standing. these are apartment blocks or they have been cleared, but this is, as one of our colleagues described, a mass graveyard. the city has become a mass graveyard. it is like this across huge areas of the city and the buildings that still stand are broken. they are structurally unsafe, their residence will never be able to go back home. so looking ahead, you have the challenge also of how to how's, where to hows, over hundreds of thousands of people. one of the challenges here, it's not just one city that's been effected by this earthquake. it stretches across major areas of the se, certainly in this city hit by the 2nd earthquake. it's epicenter very close to where we are at the people are devastated. many of them still can't believe that
8:07 am
this is happened when you ask them what you need. many will tell you, we need our relatives back. i need my daughter back. i need my husband back. but life goes on now. many of them are having to live intented cities. this is a temporary measure, and that's not just here that's in cross the entire southeast of turkey, but certainly the stories of heartbreak and devastation in their hundreds of thousands. stephanie decker, al jazeera, carmen mulash, south eastern turkey, took his prisoners, whatever the one has defended his decision making to his government was accused of being slow to respond. in hard hit areas said in consider has more from anchor government, or was late in response. and in reaching out to some city is i because of the weather conditions and the roads or the infrastructure damaged infrastructure. they have been hard, harshly criticized, but they, they acknowledges and presents ardon mentioned last week that and there might have
8:08 am
been some mistakes. and the officials we have been speaking to have been telling us the same thing. but after reaching on the ground, we have mobilize all our resources, all state sources. a he said he repeated that again. and a he mentioned that the impact of this disaster of this damage air was much bigger than its real scale. him. he tried to convince a people that he will be doing his best to accommodate pupil and add to rehabilitate the earthquake had areas. and he mentioned that in one week the risk assessment of the damage buildings will be a will be complete. and after that, they will be destroy a they will be destroying the collapse buildings. hot i province is one of the areas in the earthquake zone that's been hardest hit that the rushes on to evacuate people and provide shelter to as many as possible. but how she gonna reports are from untouched you,
8:09 am
where it's estimated nearly 70 percent of the buildings have been destroyed. they're leaving the bodies of loved ones in freshly dug graves. terrified about what's happened to those still missing in the ruins of hol. these people's roots and on takia are deep like those that that should nar, trees inter kia but the earthquake ripped them apart. earth renika sluggish rheumatoid rhythm. i lost my sister. it's an incredible pain. you lose your house, you have nothing left. we've been living in a 10 psychologically when a chair moves we get afraid. the yemen air family is waiting for a ride to a city in the west. they've never stepped foot in the turkish military, set up this makeshift bus station along the side of a major road to help take people out. not far away. others have settled uncomfortably into many tents. cities, guarded by soldiers. there was
8:10 am
a 3 month state of emergency. we weren't allowed inside or told turks and syrian refugees live separately, but sure, a common misery of no access to water or bathrooms and no electricity. this man says he escaped the war in syria with his family, and they've now been displaced for the 11th time. and, and i'm apologetically never to look over that. we don't have any demand in his life. we only ask god for diff, or we ask the will to help us take us back home to live in our land safety. the government says is provided shelter to 1200000 people. there is no exact figure of how many remain homeless in the 10 provinces declared disaster areas. the president of the turkish red crescent says 2 and a half to 3000000 people will require support in the coming months. turkey has entire stock of tense has been depleted. now there is concern about possible public
8:11 am
health crises, including the spread of the flu. cholera, respiratory elements, and other infectious diseases. waters castiano hygiene situation, the straw, but so renewed, renewed water sanitation and hodge and capacity. astronomy possible and communicable diseases heavily into conditions for many threats. actually, public health threats, we will face, the turkish red crescent says it's also working to provide mental health support to the millions who will need it. as these earthquake survivors leave a decimated city to begin life anew, they can't escape the burden of tragedy. natasha name l. jazeera on tuck, yet turkey. at southwestern turkish city of a donna has also been badly affected out as there is some is it on is the i've been out in the streets and i came across this park and

8:13 am
they show on the bicycle as we currently need. psychological support and containers could be good, but food is enough. regarding aid, everyone is doing their best as bringing some the days. other news now and ukraine says, russian forces of bombarded troops and towns of the eastern doughnuts region and what appears to be a new offensive. but ukraine's troops of repelled attacks around the front lines that are backwards and calls russian losses in the nearby town. a villa half russia has intensified the tax in ukraine's east as the 1st anniversary of the invasion edges of a closer nato defense ministers have met in brussels to discuss boosting support for ukraine. the alliance and secretary general has promised more ammunition for keith. we see no signs that the president putin is prepaying for peace. ah, what receives the opposite, sir? he is preparing for more a war for new offensive sander and new attacks. so it makes it just even more important data. and $8.00 and partner sir, provide more support to,
8:14 am
to ukraine. st. fasten has more from brussels. a week before the year anniversary of 3rd this invasion of, for russia and ukraine. ford, 54 nations represented here in brussels today have latch more military 8, but not quite the 8 that ukraine was hoping for. we know that president lansky has specifically asked for fighter jets f sixteens also directly to the netherlands, who owns the sir fighter jets. but the secretary of defense, austin, has said that there is no announcement on these f sixteens yet. what is happening is that the countries who have them only want to support ukraine with these jets, if the whole block of nato is supporting this decision. and this is a very sensitive decision is a lot of concern. it's not only complex, but it also, there are concerns about a possible escalation. what are the countries are ascending though?
8:15 am
is more air defense, france and italy half an hour stepped up with air defense system sending to ukraine a lot more ammunition is being sent. and also norway has now announced that they will sent or will give 7500000000 euros for military 8. well, still had here all else, is there a waiting for justice of the years of persecution? us diplomat meets with bring your refugees and how to feed the world. farmers consider ways to sustainably increase food production for stories after the break. ah, how low they will have a look at africa in a moment. the 1st to the middle east and levant and things are turning colder once again across eastern areas of turkey. you see that wintery weather coming in across
8:16 am
the black sea bringing heavier snow to more northern areas and keeping temperatures well below the abs for this time of year, particularly at night, for the south of this syria clear skies a leper seen 10 degrees celsius on wednesday, so double digits, the wetter and winter weather as well, continues to effect parts of iran that cloud renewed some of the heavier showers to western areas. but it is, is an improving picture further south of this, the shemelle remains a dominant feature across some of the gulf states. we are expecting some hazy sunshine as that dust gets kicked up in places like guitar and saudi arabia now was moved to north africa. wind is certainly the feature here. we've got the hon that and winds blowing down certainly being felt across northern areas of nigeria and wet and windy weather dominates for morocco. some of those conditions pulling across the canary islands over the next few days. much wired to the south of this not, however, as we head to southern africa,
8:17 am
we've still got those severe thunderstorms affecting zimbabwe, botswana, and east and south africa. ah, how do you think controlled information? moscow is wanting to look. they peace in the world. it has an incredible facial recognition technology. how does the narrative improve? public opinion better? know how if detected generally, can we framing the story? the video spread like wildfire, they denied the platform in your brain. the listening post dissects the media. we don't cover the news. we cover the way the news is cover. ah
8:18 am
ah, welcome back. you're watching all deserve me to hell robin. a reminder of all top stories, millions of people in turkey and syria are in desperate need of essential supplies falling to devastating earthquakes last week. the united nation says $99000000.00 syrians have been effected on t as appealed for maybe $400000000.00 in aid. dozens of 8 organizations on the ground that calls a better access and a massive scale up in assistance. rescue work has continued to find some survives into kids. 77 year old woman was rescued from the rubble after being trumps to more than 200 hours in a day a month. now the former us ambassador to the united nations nikki haley has announced that she'll run for president in 2024. she is the 2nd republican to seek the parties nomination after former president dull trump announced his bid in november. she ab returns, he has more from washington, dc. it's time for
8:19 am
a new generation of leadership. mickey haley's announcement of it here betrays hers . but walter of indian immigrants who achieves the american dream by becoming the 1st female governor of south carolina. and them as a warrior for american exceptionalism against russia, china, and a rom while serving as donald trump's un ambassador, she argues her relative youth and her background would inspire us voters to return to the republican party. republicans have lost the popular vote in 7 at the last 8 presidential election to chains. she's pulling it under 5 per cent, so it appears she seizing the chance to make a name for herself before others, and to the rakes. a front runner against old trump is florida governor rome de santos. he isn't expected to announced his candidacy until late may of the earliest . but after the midterm elections suggested trumps popularity among swing voters waning, there were plenty of others considering a rum. and as in 2016,
8:20 am
the more candidates that end to the primary race, the stronger the former president's position is, as the republican ante trumped voter splinters. for haley, the challenge is to appeal to a republican base that is still solidly behind trump, while also opposing trump. i think i both love trump in e. somebody who people tend to be saucy, the die hards all in. but love. yeah, she's able to make the case that i can take your, the things that you, that are important to you, the issues and, and the, and the policies that are important to you. but you know, package them a little bit differently and i've got a better chance to win in order to make america great and glorious again. i am tonight announcing my candidacy for president ha from himself is reminded his followers that hayley had once pledged not to run against him, but he hasn't attacked her clearly the big of the field of the better for him. he hasn't yet made much of an impression on the republican base, but she is
8:21 am
a favorite among deep pocketed republican donors looking for an alternative to trump. so she is likely to have an impact already, there are whispers, but ultimately it may be on the race for the vice presidential nomination in 2024. she ebert nancy al jazeera, now the semester at large, full global criminal justice has visited the world's largest refugee camp in bangladesh. cox's bazaar is home to almost 1000000 ranger refugees who fled persecution from me. and mo, beth of under shack visited the camp as part of a drive to find long term solution to the ring applied to the child. re has more bad van shack wanted to meet firsthand with throwing a vic terms, government officials and aid agency workers during your visit to the camp. the ambassador for global criminal justice said the u. s. government has determined that crimes against humanity as well as genocide, have been committed against the rowing of people. my trip was incredibly inspiring
8:22 am
. it was really fascinating to hear from the individuals they are what they are doing to advance justice in their own communities. so i spoke with documentary who are working out in the camps, taking testimony from survivors, the ravages camp leader shantell. alum said he was disappointed that there has been no progress holding those responsible for atrocities accountable. i got the 2 were happy that diplomats from america and other countries are now visiting the camp. it's almost 6 years since we've been living here. there's not much progress. i hope that justice will prevail for the ravages lie furious, challenging the camp is over. crowded and overflowing, there are flimsy shelters, and their effigies are hammed in by barbara fencing. here, there are no formal education for children available, no possibility of work, and no travel allowed anonymous. just the most serious problem that we are facing is that we are not able to educate our children, nor do we have any means of earning here,
8:23 am
making it hard to make ends meet. ambassador shack says that the international code of justice and the international criminal code play the lead role and bring in justice further or hang up. my office in the state department is ultimately a foreign policy diplomatic office. and our goal is to provide distance wherever we can, information sharing diplomatic support, working with survivors to enable them to travel, to get the kind of papers they'll need to travel to the various jurisdictions, whatever we can to help move these processes forward. most ravages. don't feel it's safe for them to return home nearly 6 years on still no one has been brought to justice for what happened to their going guys, and there is no sign of repatriation. most of those who sought ref easier are getting increasingly frustrated, losing hope of ever returning home. bangladesh is a willing and generous host to their oh, hang up. but after 6 years, it wants the international community to do more to resolve
8:24 am
a crisis that shows no sign off ending turn children algebra dhaka. though the world's largest agriculture exhibition is annoying, california with may still showing new technology, the can sustainably increase food production. the un says this will lead to increased by 60 percent by 2050, as the population is expected to rise from 8 to 10000000000 on the planet. techniques that are also being developed to low farming emissions by 67 percent by 2050. and currently, around $1300000000.00 tons of food is lost or wasted every year. while one in 10 people don't have enough to eat. nicholas accept this report from senegal, where food produces on looking to local farmers, rather than relying on impulse. so we're at a farming conference in the car center where outside there's an incredible wind. so what does that have to do with farming wealth? it's soon as a harm. a town when coming from the sahara, carrying with it small particles that are a 10th of the size of human hair,
8:25 am
and he carries phosphorus and iron across the atlantic to the caribbean, to the amazon and scientists believe the $170000.00 tons transported every year renders the land over their very 1st child for growing food and ensure abundance over there. but what about over here on the african conscious? how do people get their food? well, a lot of it relies on this the port, most of it is imported from abroad. but the russia ukraine crisis has badly affected bread makers and bakers in this country who can't rely on we imports anymore. in this challenge, the owner of this bakery saw an opportunity. this is products that are made with the imported wheat and this is the product. the mate with the cynical is look a big difference. we prefer our own re. the reason why is because you keep to make
8:26 am
our own we there is much more nutrition. there is much more for the and easy access and therefore we looking forward to grow more of the cynical is we, we are going to start by making sure that we have everything we need this big re read that way. we do not have to import read from other countries. there is plenty of food being produced on the globe, but most of it is being wasted and people here on the content continue to die of hunger. but the conversation and this farming conference goes beyond. there's a sense of a sweeping wind of change in the way africans view, forming on the continent. in africa. there's the size of the european union in arable land that have yet to be exploited. and there is a possibility of not only feeding the continent but feeding the world. nicholas hawk al jazeera, the car, senegal. 3 people have died of dislike and gabrielle hit new zealand. and what the prime minister says, calls the worst damage in
8:27 am
a generation. the storm has now weakened and is moving away, but not before it. back to the north island. torrential rain and high wind calls, floods and landslides, in more than 200000 homes, were left without power. and national state of emergency has been declared climate change extremes and the need to reduce energy consumption or putting increasing strain on the wells, housing. but at a university in north england, a group of academics, elevators, and construction companies, a tackling that challenge had on that building to full size family homes. in extraordinary climate chamber pulled, brennan has more from sulphur in the north west of the country. it's a $20000000.00 project which will shape the way houses are built and inhabited for decades to come within a cavernous environmental chamber. at the university of sol ford, 2 full scale family homes have been built, incorporating prototype materials, and bristling with energy saving technology and devices. one of the things that we
8:28 am
can do, energy house too that you can't do in traditional fail. charles is to take some risks. so we can take technologies that are right on the cusp, and i'm, we may not know if they're gonna work really well or not. and this gives us a chance to compare some of the things so that the bell way half. so you see behind me he's got 4 different heating systems and using those control conditions, we can compare assholes. heat pump at the back assholes. heat pump in the roof. and the 2 types of red heating that we've got to really understand which one's going to bring the biggest benefit to the consumer. inside the houses, smart eating controls which can learn and adapt automatically to the homeowners habits. infrared heating replaces convection radiators. sensors throughout the rooms, feed data back for analysis, and the outside of the houses could be subjected to a temperature range from a baking 40 degrees celsius to an arctic minus 20. with optional blizzard conditions. it's a genuinely extraordinary experience than a here in
8:29 am
a climate controlled chamber with snow falling on my head and threw full size houses inside behind me. but the serious purpose of this is to put technology and materials that are going to be going into new houses in 5 to tenure, thyme, and putting them under the kind of stress and jurret, if they will be facing in 5300 years time of climate change the you case, housing stock is the oldest and least energy efficient in europe. and more than 4 fifths of those homes are still heated by gas burning boilers. we have a digital thermometer system advances being tested in the energy house on not just intended for new build properties. well, all the technology will be researching in this house will be applicable to retrofit projects as well. so things like digital thermostats on radiators. no, it has central heating systems that lead. they can all be adapted into existing properties. clearly as a new build provider were able to build these into the fabric of the home. but it is possible to pull all these technologies into existing himes as well. 40 percent
8:30 am
of the u. k. carbon footprint comes from the built environment. achieving net 0 needs a step change in the design of new buildings and the upgrading of old. but knowing what actually works is crucial in making sure government policy hits its targets. what's great about this project, we've got government coming here because they're learning from our findings about how he can afford the regulations of the feature as well. because it's quite important that the regulations are realistic and we're able to deliver them. but also they have the roy impacts our homes are usually the biggest financial expenditure we have in our lifetimes. this groundbreaking research project hopes to ensure that those future homes are fit for future purpose, poll brennan, al jazeera sulphur. ah, your child is.
