from 6 kilometers in length. yesterday that's based on the aerial surveyed that the philippine coast guard did earlier in the day. officials of the philippine coast guard doubt theorizing that the bulk of that oil spill is a diesel oil from the engine of the oil tanker rather than from the 800000 liters of industrial fuel oil from that oil tanker. now it's important because industrial fuel oil is unrefined oil, so that would be more harmful to marine life here. although of course we're not saying that these an oil is not harmful, they're still testing water samples. they have yet to determine whether it's diesel oil, really, or if it's industrial fuel oil. but the authorities are also saying that they are facing the number of problems right now, including strong currents and winds. that's preventing them from installing booms to contain the oil spill. but also more importantly, that oil tanker has completely sunk in so they can't pinpoint the exact location of this oil tanker. the waters here, very deep, almost twice as tall as the i feel tower. so they can't find it. they can't

siphoned off the 800000 leaders of industrial fuel oil that, that oil tanker was carrying a 1st. it's beyond the capability of technical diapers. second, we don't have submersible mechanical equipment. now the problem isn't just at the main site of the oil spill. oil has been found in a few coastal towns in this locality. the oil that has been found is thick. it is smelly, and it is black, which are size that it could be industrial fuel, oil or unrefined oil. now within these localities are a number of marine protected areas. the university of the philippines, marine science institute warning that $24000.00 hectares of coral reef is at risk from this oil spill. find it below al, jazeera, oriental min, dora the philippines to the united states. now where republican party members are

holding the 2nd day of the conservative political action conference is seen as an early test for those seeking to challenge donald trump for the parties. presidential nomination and fisher is at the meeting in oxen hill, maryland. why? if you want to judge who got the best reception over the last few hours, it was steve band and the man fired by donald trump is still very close to the former president. when he talked about donald trump winning election and the next presidential election that brought the crowd to their feet. certainly by far and away the biggest response, we've seen it. if you what runs the whole tier, you will see many people wearing compet competition selling portraits. he's still very much the dominant figure here in the republican park, you know, to potential appointed forum and the republican party. i've already spoken. first of all we heard from mike compelled, a former secretary of state. he wasn't afraid to take on donald trump by name saying that donald trump added to the national debt when he was an office,

and that is something that has to be rectified. and then he talked about rejecting celebrity leaders with fragile egos. who could he possibly be talking about? as for nicky healey, she of course is a declared candidate, but this was our 1st real test. she was out of the comfort bubble of supporters in south carolina coming here to what essentially was a less than half fool whole to speak to the rank and file. and she started her speech with the criticism of both joe biden and donald trump went online to my campaign. i said, every politician over 75 years, all and should be required to take a mental competency test. have you seen daisy lately? we should start. well, joe biden, and we shouldn't stop there. if you want to talk about the elephant, not in the room, then that's the florida governor on de santis. many people would suspect that he would be a very strong opponent for donald trump if he were to run and many people think he will declare. but he's decided to opt out of c pack. he's going to make

a big speech in texas on saturday, but there are supporters here. and if you put donald trump up against ron de santis, who is very popular in florida and is brought in some policies that are very popular with the rank and file of the republican party, he does very well. we're still the overwhelming favorite at this point to when the republican nomination would be donald trump. and this hall will be packed on saturday evening when he comes here to speak to c panel. the, well, they're basically federations 2023 atlas report predicts more than $4000000000.00 people, the obese or overweight by the year 2035 us around 51 percent of the world's population for childhood beastie levels are expected to see a steep increase. their port estimates 208000000 boys and 175000000 girls with the obese by 2035. a country is expected to see the greatest increase. his inner beastie in the coming years are low or middle income countries in asia and africa.

100 winston is a direct policy program. is that the well the beastie federation. she says governments that need to play a bigger role in addressing the health issue. i think what we think today is fundamentally i challenge on society, our systems just not doing their job in keeping us healthy food systems are swayed towards unhealthy food environment, making it more difficult for us to be physically active. but we also know there are a number of other factors that contribute to obesity, such as mental health. and what with the overall is a lot of misunderstanding about obesity. a lot of bias and, and stigma. a lot of emphasis on individual responsibility. what we want to say is strong policies that by prevent treat to t. so in the sense of prevention, we're looking at strong policies that restrict marketing that tack certain products that improve the school environment. some examples. and that's going to be really

important, particularly in lower middle income country, where the health system just simply not quit to be addressing obesity in hiring come countries. we also need to be thing strong prevention policy, particularly for the run tall to, to be to take but there's also a row for health systems for primary caps to be ensuring that the system is that to support people who are effective by b to t to give them the care that they need to ensure that that supported a non stigmatizing way by the health care professionals that they say. when you a formula, one season has started. bahrain with red bows, said your perez, i think the pace in 1st practice ahead of fernanda, along with it. news off the track this week has been a launch of an old female drive, a series called f one academy. it will be led by former racing driver and team manager. susie wolfe, 40 percent of those watching formula one are women, but none of the 20 drivers or female fiscal doing reports on the push to change that. oh, macy hitter is going a 120 kilometers per hour,

centimeters off the ground. she's only 15 and has spent 7 years practicing racing training weekend after weekend, month after month. and she's faced an additional hurdle when like women come to the track as boys. right. confused, sir. so of why the heck is, is a met by a male dominated score. a lot of them do not want to be in by go say i've had, you know, challenging with hands. i've been taken off of things about hitter a champions. o'connor is hoping to make the jump to cars. she raced in f for car this summer, but her career has stalled and women find it more difficult to find sponsors. a women only series last year ran out of money mid season, but that may be change cape evan, a long time formula. one executive is behind an initiative to figure out what's holding women back with a need to talent spot. there is

a very small proportion of the racing drivers in the world ah female. and we need to find where they are, pluck them, and then take them, develop their skills, whether that is physical, mental rice craft and help drive them all the way up to formula one. most motor sport experts say it's not a question of strength. more women have gone into space than raced on a formula one track. the g forces at 340 kilometers per hour are all in a day's work for jamie chadwick. now racing in the us indie car feeder series. chadwick said the industry is finally ready to accept female drivers, but it won't happen overnight. ah, vera, you know, a lot of innovators in love organizations that already really came to, to make it happen. i don't have an issue with it, bang attorneys on the line as long as we don't look back in 10 years time and they call was still in the same position. the popularity of formula one has exploded in
