looks at morrison's selling boxes of unsold food for just looks at morrison's selling boxes of unsold food forjust over £3, and in will re—open after netflix signed that box you can get all sorts of a deal to rent it to showcase some of its most prestigious releases. different things that have gone by the sell by date. yes, and this is with me is lawrence gosling, the editor—in—chief at what investment. great. within another one in the uk, the co—op selling food for one and let's get stuck in. this first story 2p, just because of the shelf very quickly. food waste is a major issue is just let's get stuck in. this first story isjust depressing, isn't let's get stuck in. this first story is just depressing, isn't it? let's get stuck in. this first story isjust depressing, isn't it? the in terms of carbon emissions world meteorological organisation says the increase in co2 is just particularly in the supermarket chains, and morrison's think if this above the average rise recorded for works, they will sell 350,000 boxes the last decade, but when you look at various different types of gases, it is going up and up. it's which will save about 850 tons of carbon emissions, so not to be extraordinary, and you're right, it is very depressing, and there are two things within this report, it's sniffed at. i'm tempted, definitely about emissions, so c02 going up into the atmosphere from things like grab sniffed at. i'm tempted, definitely gmba sniffed at. i'm tempted, definitely graba box sniffed at. i'm tempted, definitely grab a box and rustle something up coal burning, and they are focusing with that. now let's look at this, on this piece about concentration. so essentially it is what is left behind from the emissions that have the sonjunk with that. now let's look at this, the son junk e—mail, been almost overcome by whatever, with that. now let's look at this, the sonjunk e—mail, 64 million pointless messages go out every day. this seems to think. there's the these figures feed into why we are pointless messages, and we are very hearing more about like rising polite, if you and i sent an e—mail
5:46 am
health problems for children in to each other, i would probably go, major cities, london, new york, have a nice day at the end, and that beijing for example, so you realise have a nice day at the end, and that emissions is one thing, and put it have a nice day at the end, and that have a nice day is a pointless e—mail but more importantly don't think we understand that it actually into some court dominic context, the creates energy emissions, it uses energy, and they work out, they stuff that is left behind is 150% with then the industrial revolution estimate that if we stopped doing at the uk. the data that was looking all this it would save about 23.5 thousand carbon tons per year, so compare that to morrison's with the at, the fact that it is getting worse, as you say, because actually 00:01:32,294 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 i've talked to so food waste, 850, a very simple change. and this is just a food waste, 850, a very simple change. and this isjust a small thing that we can just think about and could possibly make a difference if everybody were to take action on this. i must admit, though, it is politeness. if somebody sends me an e—mail, i will always reply to it, evenif e—mail, i will always reply to it, even if it's just thanks very much, have a good day. it is partly important to know if you are sending an e—mail that the person receiving at has read at. absolutely, because
5:47 am
so much stuff goes into spam these days. in my bbc inbox, i've got 14,886 unread e—mails and most of those they don't even need to read. just want to mention what some of oui’ just want to mention what some of our view are saying about this topic has been a big chitchat about this. someone says, i think this is a dumb idea. of the device is on then sending and receiving an e—mail cost zero energy. not quite sure about that. other people have got back saying, oh my goodness, other not other things we be doing or thinking about that is much more impactful, ieee, not climbing on a plane? that point is right, but we got all of these things cumulatively are creating this challenge we have with the claimant at the moment. but the conversation was having earlier in business briefing, christmas waste is off the scale and even when you are trying to be really thoughtful about how much waste you throw away,
5:48 am
it is very difficult. christmas wrapping paper, very an environmentally friendly, use a couple of newspapers, save a bit. there you go! let's move onto the financial times. two stories are wa nt to financial times. two stories are want to talk about but we picked over, stripped of its licence as driverfraud over, stripped of its licence as driver fraud puts over, stripped of its licence as driverfraud puts passenger over, stripped of its licence as driver fraud puts passenger safety at risk. the city is its biggest market in europe. we heard earlier in the programme, its listing was the largest in the uk until ali barber, so clamping down on uber potentially, not being able to work out, and is 43000 uber drivers in the uk at the moment, and this relates to 43 incidents of what is described as fraud, and some of them are quite significant cases, where people have been distributing indecent images and have been
5:49 am
allowed through a loophole to get back on the system, so there is a real issue of rider safety hair even though 43 out of 43,000 seems a small number, and there has been a wave against uber particularly in london that it is not a great... that's not the only city, uber is very used to legal action, is not called a disru ptor very used to legal action, is not called a disruptor for no reason, but it will be interesting to see how this goes. in the meantime, uber drivers are operating in london as usual. and they have got 21 days to appeal, and they are appealing. let's look at netflix. for many cinema—goers or those who run the big cinemas around the world, netflix has been a real thorn in their side, stopping people from going to the movies, because there's so much choice online, streaming, but actually it is coming to the rescue of a paris that are. the paris theatre in new york, if you are lucky enough to be there, it's
5:50 am
in the guidebook. they are taking a lease on it and they are going to use it as a vehicle to showcase some of their own movies and everybody goes there, they might be aware that netflix is involved in the irishman, and that has had a very limited cinema opening in london, and it has gone straight to netflix. you can see the way we consume films is changing, netflix realises it is not just about millennial‘s, even people my age do like going to the cinema to see things. even people your age! yes, even my age! it's a really lovely story, the paris theatre is iconic and the idea of closing down 01’ iconic and the idea of closing down or running out of funding, because for some of the cinemas, the actual positions they have in these very prestigious areas of cities makes it really experience —— expensive to
5:51 am
pay the rent. something like netflix, i think it is making a very good decision. it's good for their image as they expand and of course netflix is being hit from new competition coming from apple, coming from disney, so they have got to think of other ways of drawing and viewers and strengthening them brand, basically. and their traditional customer base, people my age as opposed to millennial‘s at the end of the day. thanks for being on, and thank you, too, as well on all of your comments on the issue of sending e—mails, because of course it is something we are all doing all the time, often without thinking as there are so many other things we are doing, but when it comes to the science, many of you have questioned the science about this idea and said, actually, come on. we are going to be not allowed to breathe soon. i will be tweeting the story
5:52 am
soon. i will be tweeting the story so you can have a look at some of the detail. thank you so much for your company, and we will see you very soon. bye bye. hello there, there's a big change in the weather for all of us by the end of this week, but before then we have got more mild weather, more cloud, and some further rain and perhaps in some parts, strong to galeforce winds, with the worst of the weather through tuesday and wednesday expected across england and wales. the reason for the wet and windy weather, another area of low pressure, this one contains remnants of ex—tropical storm sebastian and that is going to stick around
5:53 am
for the next couple of days. ahead of that, we have still got mild conditions by the morning, a lot of cloud, some further pockets of rain and drizzle but the wetter weather and windier weather will be toward the south—west, where the winds are up picking up in the morning. gusts of 40mph or perhaps 50mph. that will push that rain band northwards throughout the day, could be quite heavy at times, it will push its way northwards across england and wales into northern ireland and the central belt of scotland, some patchy rain and stronger winds for northern scotland. behind the rain band may get some sunshine but watch out for some heavy downpours, particularly toward the south—east of england later on in the afternoon. but with this tropical air heading away, it could be quite warm in the sunshine, 14 or 15 degrees perhaps. but some wet weather for the south—east of england, east anglia into the evening, and our area of low pressure comes back towards the south—west of england and wales, picks up the rain here which will be quite heavy, and also strengthens the wind, and we will see gales pushing through the english channel coastal areas into the channel islands too. so, more rain for england and wales,
5:54 am
could be heavy at times, and we are still going to have some wet weather across the far north of scotland. but mainly it's south—east scotland and north—east england that will see the rain turning heavier and more persistent as we head into the afternoon, bringing the threat of more localised flooding. temperatures widely in double figures. as we head into thursday, we start to see some changes because the low pressure is going to take a lot of that rain away into the near continent. 0ur wind direction is going to change from that milder south—westerly to a much colder northerly wind, and that will drag down the cold air across the whole of the country. we have still got some rain to clear away on thursday and there is more of it now across england and wales, a little bit slower but we should see it brightening up for northern ireland and particularly across scotland with some sunshine knocking those temperatures down in that northerly wind. still some mild air across the south but only 11 or 12 degrees. as we move into friday morning, there may well be a frost around, perhaps all the way down toward the midlands as well. that's a significant change. we are also looking at drier weather
5:55 am
to arrive on friday, that is going to mean more sunshine for a change, but those images will be lower, typically 5—8 celsius.
5:56 am
5:57 am
