you re watching bbc newsroom live. it's ham and these are the main stories this morning. psychiatrists and campaigners call for social media companies to be forced to hand over data to universities, for research into the potential harm of using the technology. we, as a world, notjust the country, would better understand the sort of pressures and problems that are being forced upon young people by social media platforms. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, defends the country's military over the shooting down of a passenger plane, as he leads friday prayers. we're in glasgow for our series, our planet matters. the city has committed itself to become the first net zero emissions city in the uk.

iam i am live at a busy glasgow science centre where we will be examining exactly how a big city like this can meet that goal. rebecca long—bailey and emily thornberry the european parliament's brexit co—ordinator, guy verhofstadt, has said he's been told that there will be no automatic deportation of eu citizens. in sport, a century from ben stokes helps england build a sizeable first innings total on day two of the third test against south africa at port elizabeth. also coming up. minting it — a sovereign, struck when edward the eighth was king, has become the first british coin to sell for £1 million. good morning. welcome to bbc newsroom live. social media companies, such

as facebook, twitter and instagram, should be forced to share details about how young people use their sites and the way they tailor content. proposals by the royal college of psychiatrists could see companies face a new tax, which would fund research into a how a child's online activity affects their mental health. angus crawford reports. she had so much to offer. molly russell's death... and that's gone. ..sparked a national outcry. these are companies that count their profits in the billions. and they turn round and say to us that they can't protect our children? questions about young people and mental health. do you have the power to compel them to do what you think needs to be done? yes, absolutely. focussing public anger on the tech giants. and demands for greater regulation. announced in the queen's speech, the government's plans for a new independent regulator and a statutory duty of care. my ministers will develop legislation to improve

internet safety for all. but the royal college of psychiatrists wants tougher action. social media companies are very wealthy. they have got a huge amount of knowledge, they can create complex algorithms which hook young people into their platforms. why can't they be using that same amount of energy, knowledge and funding to try and harness the positive benefits, and help try and protect children and young people more? tech giants should be forced to share data with university researchers and be taxed on their global turn over. new apps should be designed to be age—appropriate. radical solutions, which won't be popular with an industry making billions from the children who use its products. angus crawford, bbc news. molly russell, who we saw in angus‘s report, was 1a when she died days before her birthday in 2017, after viewing graphic self—harm and suicide material on instagram.

herfather, ian, said this morning, there was an urgent need for greater action: collectively, when you start looking at those images on the internet, the algorithms that are there start pushing more and more of those images and such content to you, and they connect you with other people who are in a similar, desperate place. and there's an element of self—help, i'm sure there's an element of self—help that goes on, but there is an absence of professional help on those platforms and an absence of real care. and i think it's even possible that the public, obvious platforms can lead you to darker places on the internet, where there is much more discussion about suicide. and it's just a horrible spiral, a vicious circle that leads you into a very desperate place. i think it could be quite hard, that's what the social media companies seem to say, they seem to say it takes...

it's not as easy as we might think, it's taking them a long time to inch their way to safer platforms. i mean, some measures have been taken, but i don't they have yet moved fast enough or gone far enough, because there is still too much dangerous, harmful content online. louise theodosiou is from the child and adolescent faculty at the royal college of psychiatirsts. she co—authored this report and spoke to us earlier. what we would like to understand is what content is available. we know children may potentially be affected, both by the amount of time that they are spending on them, just through simple things like sleep deprivation and loss of other activities, but also, we need to understand what content children are seeing. what we want is for the tech companies to be transparent about the data that they hold, about how much time people spend online, young people, and what those young people are looking at. because if we can understand what data is available, then, potentially, we can work with the tech companies to help them

understand how to keep people safe online. and what access to data do they give you at the moment? at the moment, the data is very limited. and that is one of the reasons why the government's call last year is so important to us, and why we would like the tech companies to be sharing data, not only with ourselves, but with universities and academics and researchers who can once again work with those tech companies to help keep the internet the internet safe for children. what effect of social media are you seeing at the moment? i think what we know is that children are reporting bullying, before children could go home and close the door, but now, cyber bullies can be in the bedroom. what we also know is that children are reporting feeling as if they are missing out on what other children are doing, they are seeing people online living lives that they feel they are not living, so they're therefore comparing themselves negatively. if you think you then have a spiral where people are potentially being bullied, where people are, you know, seeing other people have a more positive time, you can also then see

the danger of sites that may potentially be very persuasive in terms of suicide and self—harm. is there an issue of privacy here, though, around the idea of data sharing? i think what we're wanting is for those online companies to be held to the same standards off—line companies are. we would like them to be very clear with people about the data that they are collecting and to be clear about the data that they would be sharing. but, ultimately, we would be wanting to gather anonymous data, to help us understand the many children and young people that are using online services. a british teenager, who was found guilty in cyprus of causing public mischief, after she reported she'd been raped by a group of men, has launched an appeal against her conviction. the 19—year—old returned to the uk last week. she says that it was under police pressure that she retracted her report of gang rape. two hospitals, which

were being built by the engineering giant carillion when the firm collapsed will be delayed, according to the national audit office. the royal liverpool and the midland metropolitan won't be completed until 2022 and each will cost around £300 million more than originally thought. the government says it is giving both trusts extra funding to minimise further delays. glasgow recently became the first city in the uk to pledge is your workplace neurodiverse friendly? a guidebook to neurodiversity in the workplace — that's those with autism, dyslexia, adhd and other neurological conditions — has been published by universal the book is intended to make neurodiversity more the book is intended to make neurodiversity more inclusive in the workplace. now, more than 100 companies have expressed interest in having it in their workplaces. chichi izundu has more. this is our latest toy. so, this can be used to describe most neurodiversities, i typically use it to do either dyspraxia or autism, but a big element which people

normally neglect is the social side of things. put these goggles on and what they will do is turn your wold upside down. can you see? yes. now, try and shake my hand. pleasure to meet you. people see the world differently. something universal music uk picked up on when discussing diversity in the workplace. especially neurodiversity, which refers to people with adhd, dyspraxia, dyslexia and the autism spectrum. the record label wanted a guide on how to talk about neurodiversity in the workplace, but when they couldn't find one, they made one. it's cream, to help dyslexic people read it better. to help support our existing staff, and also to try and reach out to all of that untapped talent out there, that's why we are doing it. you know, there is brilliant folks out there that we have already spoken to, as part of this research, that just wouldn't even consider applying to the likes of us, or indeed many companies. not every work environment is like universal music uk.

31—year—old yvonne is a marketing consultant who works in a typical office. open plan, lots of phones and computers. coloured post—its and coloured books that we got as well, so thatjust helps me to distinguish what is going on, in terms of the information and i can dial down to what is important and i can see it clearly. so, you are neurodivergent? yes, lam. what is your neurodivergency? so, i am dyslexic. my d5 and bs tend to get mixed up, i don't easily recognise errors, in terms of spelling, punctuation and grammar. when i told my previous line manager in regards to the fact that i was dyslexic, they worked pretty quickly and we were able to adjust my working environment to meet my needs. one need that is often not met is even how you apply for a job. employers should think of more options. applying for a job for some can be tricky. employers still expect you to fill out an application form and, if you have a neuro diversity, like dyslexia, that can be challenging. so, how about sending in a short video, explaining exactly why

you are the right person for thejob, instead? what are you working on, april? matt boyd started the neurodiverse recruitment agency, exceptional individuals. he couldn't get a job because of his dyslexia. many of our community that we work with have been told almost what they are bad at and not what they are good at, so when they get to the workplace, if employers can focus on the benefits and strength areas of the individual, and society as a whole, it will make a big difference for all of, everyone with adhd, dyslexia and dyspraxia and autism. there are employers who actively seek neurodiverse people, like the intelligence agency, gchq. and the government does offer a grant for employers to help meet any needs of neurodiverse people. but, until the traditional way of work changes, they are a community who will continue not to be included in any diversity conversations.

iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, has appealed for unity, following anti—government protests last week over the accidental shooting down of a passenger plane. leading friday prayers in tehran, for the first time in eight years, he described the downing of the ukrainian airliner as tragic. he told thousands of worshippers that the killing by the united states earlier this month of the iranian general, qassem soleimani, was a cowardly assassination. we can speak to ali hasham, the bbc‘s iran affair‘s correspondent. very, very strong words from iran's supremely. tell us more about what he said. the iranians supremely regarded the iranian retaliation to the assassination of general soleimani as a historical turning point. saying that the... what a

shame, we seem to be having problems with the line to beirut, perhaps we can talk to him a little later on. it seems we have you back, we lost the line. keep telling us what he was saying. ayatollah ali khamenei said the iranian retaliation by hitting us bases in iraq was a historical turning point. hitting us bases in iraq was a historicalturning point. he hitting us bases in iraq was a historical turning point. he also said his country is facing attempts by foreign and western powers to divert the interest within the people to iran's retaliation towards the fall of, the crush of the ukrainian —— crash of the ukrainian

plane and this was done in purpose in order to let some people inside the country come out and demonstrate against the establishment. in one way or another, he was drawing lines between those who went to the funeral of qasem soleimani saying these were the people behind the revolution, behind the government, behind the establishment, while there was a minority who were chanting against the regime. he also extended a hand to the arabs in order to normalise ties as he said, at the same time with respect to negotiations, where western powers with the united states, he did not rule out the idea of talks in principle, yet he said it would be out of weakness and he said no to talking to the united states of america, so he was clear on this. as usual, he was very critical of the western powers, mainly the european powers, because of their role in the

post nuclear deal, whereas according to him, they were faithful enough, did not really take to their own responsibilities towards the deal, so responsibilities towards the deal, so this was in general what he was saying today. thank you. staying with iran, the us military has revealed that 11 american soldiers were injured in an iranian missile strike on an iraqi base nine days ago. a military spokesman said that although there were no deaths, some service members were treated for concussion after the attack. previously, the us had denied that any of its military personnel were hurt. the attack on the al—asad air base was in retaliation for the assassination of iran's top military commander, qasem soleimani. the eu parliament's chief brexit neogtiator says he's been given key assurances there will be

no automatic deportation of eu citizens after the brexit deadline. guy verhofstadt is in london and held meetings with brexit secretary stephen barclay yesterday. let's talk to our political correspondent iain watson. we know the discussions were discussed as frank, we would love to know your take on what we read into that word, tell us about more about what guy verhofstadt has been saying? it is interesting because usually when frank discussions take place, that is code for a complete lack of any meeting of minds, usually of the meeting in fact deteriorating into mutual recrimination. but i think what was interesting is that although guy verhofstadt was saying something about a pantomime villain and brexiteers say he was scaremongering, in fact he sounded quite conservatory when he spoke to the today programme, saying he could

given a number of reassurances on a number of fronts, there will be an independent monitoring body to see rates are permitted post brexit i perhaps residence here could be on that very body, there have been fears that if they were not able to provide documentary proof of their status to remain in britain, settle status, then perhaps they might get into a windrush scandal and difficulty to prove the right to live and work you. he said he was ensuring the government fronted a ha rd ensuring the government fronted a hard copy saying that they did have a settled status that they required and above all he wanted to make sure there was no automatic deportation of citizens who do not sign up by the deadline ofjune 202i, of citizens who do not sign up by the deadline ofjune 2021, in the past the government said they did not want to do this but it was theoretically possible because they would apply immigration laws. this is what guy verhofstadt said he was told by the government today which seem to keep him relatively happy. i wanted to be sure that there is no automatically a deportation of these people, even after the grace period, because it can be people

were very vulnerable. and you had that assurance? and the idea will be that even for these people, after the grace period, there will be a possibility to apply, giving the grounds why it was not possible to do it within the normal procedures. and iain, back to domestic politics now, it's a big day in terms of the labour leadership contest. rebecca long—bailey and emily thornberry launching the campaign survey. they are very different candidates, aren't they? yes, rebecca long—bailey is on the left, critics say she is continuityjeremy corbyn, she would say she is resenting a radical programme, deliver a seismic shift in the british state away from here at westminster, more power to local areas and to the regions. she also says she wants to get out of the gentleman scarp in britain's politics, perhaps a jibe at one of her challenges, —— emily thornberry perhaps not quite as popular amongst

the left—wing membership as rebecca long—bailey. she struggled to get on a stage in the contest with the backing of fellow mps but she says she has the resilience and indeed the experience to take on boris johnson. she is battle hardened she says. but what is interesting is that tonight when emily thornberry launches, she will also point out she was as she puts it on the front line of opposing anti—abortion laws in northern ireland. we know that rebecca long—bailey for example in response to questions by the catholic church at the time of the election raise questions as to whether she would personally be in favour of allowing abortion tends to be restricted for, and issue of disability. also, some of her collea g u es disability. also, some of her colleagues say she was not present at some of the votes to extend abortion rights to northern ireland. she did vote for it on one occasion but i think it is interesting that in an attempt to try and get purchase with what seems a left—wing socially progressive membership, that some of the candidates are now

raising this issue to try and differentiate themselves from rebecca long—bailey, who the back end of the left—wing group momentum, is likely to be setting up her campaign and become more of a threat to the other contenders. good to talk to you. thank you. thousands of people, who have raised money for big ben to chime when the uk leaves the eu at the end of the month, look set to be disappointed. nearly £150,000 has been donated to ensure the bell is in working order, but the house of commons authorities, which manage the parliamentary estate, says it won't accept the money. mps backing the appeal say the prime minister "shouldn't back out now". glasgow recently became the first city in the uk to pledge to become carbon neutral over the next 20 years. it will mean radically cutting harmful emissions and planting enough trees to absorb the carbon in any remaining fumes.

it comes as the city prepares to host an international summit on climate change in november. the bbc is taking a closer look at the changes glasgow will have to make as part of our series, our planet matters. annita mcveigh is there for us today. good morning. welcome back to the powering the future, a very busy powering the future, a very busy powering the future room at glasgow science centre. i have to say, i think we have become a bit of distraction to the children looking at the exhibits. we are the exhibit 110w. at the exhibits. we are the exhibit now. is it about like sleeping lions, every time i look around, they are closer to me but they are very well—behaved. let's talk about the climate and the ipcc, the intergovernmental panel on climate change, the united nations body that looks at all the climate science there is, it has said 2020 is a really crucial year to deal with climate change. that is because they

say if we don't, globally reduce carbon emissions in 2020, then it is not going to be possible to meet that target of preventing global temperatures rising above that key 1.5 celsius line. and, to that end, the uk has said it wants to be carbon neutral by 2050, scotland is more ambitious than that. it says 2045 to become carbon neutral and glasgow is even more ambitious, it is talking about being carbon neutral by the end of this decade. and our science editor has been out and about in the city, finding out how it hopes to achieve that. the morning rush hour in glasgow, commuters pouring into scotland's biggest city. motorways run straight through glasgow. for decades, the car has been king. but now, there's a radical plan to go carbon neutral. new charging points for electric

vehicles are being installed. the aim is to make the city green in ten years. and the council's gritting lorries are going to be adapted to run on clean hydrogen, as well as diesel. but this is only one very small part of a long list of what needs to be done. how big a challenge is it? getting to carbon neutral by 2030 is a big challenge. it is certainly one we're taking very seriously, and it's not enough for a few people in the council to be working on that. it's a challenge that everybody has to take part in, that we need to get everybody across the city engaged with, and that we need to be working on now. already, more and more of the uk's electricity is becoming carbon free. here on the edge of glasgow is one of europe's largest wind farms. there are big plans for many more turbines, and for solar panels. but going totally carbon neutral won't be easy. we've done some studies recently which show that we need to start installing 4,000 heat pumps

and electric vehicle charging points every day across the uk. every day? every day, if we're going to meet the targets that we set ourselves for becoming carbon neutral. is that remotely feasible? if we start now. hardest of all will be making glasgow's housing greener, and that is the case across the country, because most homes are heated by gas. a mass of pipes being worked on here is part of a scheme to draw warmth from the river clyde and use it to heat an entire district. we are not burning anything on the site, that's the beauty of it. i asked dave pearson, who is in charge of the project, if glasgow is really on course to be carbon neutral. i don't think so. i think, in all honesty, momentum is all about progress. there's lots of ideas, lots of talk, but we need to actually decide that the city will become gas free by 2030, and how best to do that. at the moment, we haven't even started. it is hard to believe, as things stand, how glasgow

or any major city, could possibly be carbon neutral in as little as ten years' time, but the council says it wants to send a signal that at least it is trying. and this matters, because an international summit on climate change is due to take place here in november, and the world will be watching what this city does. let's talk about glasgow summer with oui’ let's talk about glasgow summer with our scotland correspondent, morning lord enough. the authorities haven't given much detail yet on how they propose to make the city carbon neutral? some strategies are in place, cycle lanes, pedestrianisation, they know they have to think back for this to work and there are dozens of different areas under consideration. they are looking at, for instance, should they shift set up a bus company? should they set up free tickets on those buses? the two big areas of public transport or transport as a

whole and eating. another thing is how do you encourage electric vehicles in a city where 70% of people live in flats? 0ne vehicles in a city where 70% of people live in flats? one area under consideration is might they use the lighting columns for street lighting to charge vehicles overnight and then there is heating, we saw in david's report of one community based heating using air pumps, another area under consideration is ground source heat pumps, this is a city with a vast amount of parks, 90 01’ so city with a vast amount of parks, 90 orso and city with a vast amount of parks, 90 or so and total. they are looking at whether they could perhaps pilot putting ground source heat pumps in those parts. it sounds incredibly ambitious but it has been done before in places like copenhagen for instance. so there are models? because it has ambitious and we're looking at the city, not an area thatis looking at the city, not an area that is in a sealed bubble. matters right. scotland as a whole also has targets. glasgow wants we met zero by2030, targets. glasgow wants we met zero by 2030, so does edinburgh, the scottish government has very ambitious governments. it is pulling

out one figure. they say the have the most stringent targets anywhere in the world, they want to get emissions to 75% below 1990 levels by 2045. much of the heavy lifting on that has already been done with the shift away from coal towards renewable. i think we will see the next 10—15 years will be a lot harder going forward and those plans will be set out in the next months. 0k, thank you very much. when you think of scotland you think of its natural beauty, you think about vibrant cities like glasgow and edinburgh and so on and you also think about not see gas and oil with its reliance on fossil fuels. to talk more about this aspect, of climate change i am joined by the chair of shell climate change i am joined by the chairof shell uk, climate change i am joined by the chair of shell uk, thank you very much for coming along to the glasgow science centre today. it is a tough sell for you, for any oil company, isn't it, to say that you are part of the solution when so many people think you are part of the problem?|j

think you are part of the problem?” think it is very, very important that we see we are very clear to eve ryo ne that we see we are very clear to everyone out there that we see ourselves very much a part of the solution. if you look at the energy system that we have today, over 100 yea rs system that we have today, over 100 years oil and gas has become an integral part of that. so that system has to transform. and we are pa rt system has to transform. and we are part of that system because we produce oil and gas and we have to transform too. and i'm very committed to doing doing that but we won't do that on our own. we're going to have to work with others, with government, with our customers and move hand instead to do this. what might your talking about an unprecedented level of cooperation and you also say that the oil companies need to get the message out that there has to be a transition away from gas and oil, perhaps gas and oil is still needed during that transition, but talk is about how much you're spending on renewa bles about how much you're spending on renewables verses on exploration of traditional sources of fuel like and gas? we have committed to spend up

to $2 billion on our average, a very significant amount of expenditure going into new businesses for us. building up our business and the new low carbon fuels of the future. building up our business and the new low carbon fuels of the futuree billion out of what looks miniature of? around $25 billion. that is still a pretty small amount. i know sheu still a pretty small amount. i know shell is at the top of the european companies are spending on renewables and european companies did better than us companies and elsewhere in the world that it is still quite a small out of your budget isn't it? $2 billion is a very large omit of money and you will struggle to find other companies are spending that sort of money and we have been very clear that that money will grow but in line with customer demand and the way markets evolve so if i give you an example, there are places in the world where markets and the customer demand and therefore options oh offshore went or solar and we are investing in both of these heavily.

0ther investing in both of these heavily. other areas take potentially one of the key drivers of change, we are one of the biggest eb charges in europe, has an great incentive that for people to buy them and we have been building a big business there but it is lower in the uk. because even though we are rolling out rapid charges on our retail sites, there are 34 million telecom bastion cars, this takes time. let me put this to you. yesterday we heard from microsoft. device iveagh will be carbon neutral, but also carbon negative and the quote from microsoft, those who can afford to go faster and move further should do so. as a shell one of those companies that can afford to go faster and further? the brilliant thing about the microsoft news as it is exactly what we want to see. they can bea is exactly what we want to see. they can be a customerfor us. we can provide them with clean power, we are the third largest clean power

provider in the us and we can provider in the us and we can provide them with carbon out sets in order to reach that carbon neutral states of the more companies like microsoft pull in the demand, the more we can invest in the solutions. this is that picture capture model, we wa nt this is that picture capture model, we want customers demanding services and we will step up and absolutely provide them. —— picture, catcher. shell so that protest by climate activists outside aberdeen yesterday. still really busy here in the powering our future yesterday. still really busy here in the powering ourfuture room at yesterday. still really busy here in the powering our future room at the glasgow science centre, the kids all enjoying the exhibits in the room. let me tell you to find out more about climate change and what you can do, go to our website.

let's have a look at the weather. we have got some showers today across the uk, those have been quite heavy this morning and they are moving away from west to east across many parts. we have some rainbows forming as they show clear away in east sussex a while ago. we can see the show is continuing to move their way eastwards a cross show is continuing to move their way eastwards across england and wales as we go through the afternoon, there will be some brighter skies either side. a bit of rain at moving south across western scotland and northern ireland, temperatures a little bit lower compared to yesterday, round about seven to nine celsius. as we go through this evening and tonight, a lot of the showers clearing away but more feeding across scotland, some of those with some snow over higher ground. clear skies for many of us and you can see we are expecting quite a cold night, colder than we have expanded in the last few nights, temperatures close to if not below freezing put up a frosty start to saturday morning but high—pressure developing saturday and sunday plenty of fine weather. lots of sunshine but it will be quite chilly in the mornings with

some frost, perhaps even some fog on a sunday morning as well. that is the weather for you. hello this is bbc newsroom live. the headlines: psychiatrists and campaigners have called for social media companies to be forced to hand over data to universities, for research into the potential harms of using the technology. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, has led friday prayers in the capital tehran for the first time in eight years. the european parliament's brexit co—ordinator, guy verhofstadt, has said he's been told that there will be no automatic deportation of eu citizens, who miss the deadline to stay in the uk. rebecca long—bailey and emily thornberry set out their visions for the labour party, as they launch their rival bids to succeed jeremy corbyn as leader.

and a sovereign, struck when edward viii was king, has become the first british coin to sell for a million pounds. also coming up, we're in glasgow for our series "our planet matters". the city has committed itself to become the first net zero emissions city in the uk. sport now and a full round up from the bbc sport centre. including the latest on england in south africa. england are building a big first innings total against south africa in the third test thanks to the fifth wicket partnership between ben stokes and ollie pope. stokes is unbeaten on 1112, pope 75. after a rain delay at the start of day 2 in port elizabeth, england resumed on 224—4, they have just come back out from lunch. 341-4.

stokes has now passed 4000 test runs. the series is level at 1—1. one other line from the cricket, the south african fast bowler kagiso rabada will miss the final test because of his celebration yesterday when he tookjoe root‘s wicket. the icc deemed it to be overly provocative and gave him a demerit point, his fourth in a 24—month period which has triggered a one—match ban. many people feel it is undeserved and a bit of a harsh punishment. the reigning premiership and european rugby union champions saracens could be relegated in a matter of days unless they can prove that they are now complying with salary cap rules. they've already been docked 35 points and fined £5 million for breaking the cap for the past 3 seasons.

here's our sports news reporter laura scott. premiership rugby club all met in london on tuesday, they decided that they wanted to take some pretty tough action on the saracens to ensure that they could prove the compliance this season, it is very important that they have this crystal clear that they're not willing to take any chances at this time. this morning, the saracens convened all the players and staff to update them on discussions. what seems to be the case is that they are seems to be the case is that they a re really seems to be the case is that they are really struggling to get within the cap this season for that they're struggling to off—load players, we haven't seen go for short yet so i think it seems more and more certain that they will be relegated and if they can't prove that compliance and there is still the chance they could have a fresh audit of them this season, past seasons, that could bring fresh charges and sanctions. this is moving quite rapidly, i think we'll see a lot coming out of the club and premiership rugby in the club and premiership rugby in the coming days and my understanding is that if they don't meet that

deadline, the relegation could be confirmed in the coming days but this will have wide implications on the england setup, if players aren't playing in the premiership or if they have to move abroad, this could be really significant over the coming days. harriet dart has come through qualifying in melbourne to make it into the australian open main draw for the second year running, that means that there'll be four british women in the first round. that includes johanna konta, but she's had very limited preparations, the british number one has only played in one tournment since the us open in september as she manages a knee problem. because of that she says she won't play in the fed cup this year. it's a tough decision to make because fed cup is something that has always been very close to my heart and i have had some incredible expenses in my career so far and i am definitely looking to have some more but for this season, because it is an olympic season as well, ijust

need to take care of my body and make some decisions that are not a lwa ys make some decisions that are not always easy but hopefully it will help me have the longevity that i want. papa massata, son of the former world athletics president, lamine diack, has been talking to the bbc about their on—going corruption trial. they face allegations that they accepted bribes in return for slowing down doping procedures against a number of russian athletes. massata says there was no bribery but he admits they did delay imposing sanctions to protect the sport in the run—up to london 2012 and the following year's world championships. just delayed the sanctioning process , just delayed the sanctioning process, the london 0lympic just delayed the sanctioning process, the london olympic games and for two reasons. london 0lympic games were chaired by the mayor of the athletics and second the icc gave the biggest share... so, we

shift all the investigation to after the olympic games and will start processing it two or three case because we have our own world championship in moscow. 344 - four in the cricket. that's all the sport for now. the actor derek faulds has died. there are lots of things people want you to do but very few things that you to do but very few things that you have to do. after all, it is up to you, you are the boss. he appeared in numerous television programmes but he was famous for being in yes, minister. he became well known after he played mr

derrick in the basil brush show for four years. he also starred in the itv drama heartbeat until 2010. his family said he died in hospital in bath after suffering complications from pneumonia. an edward the eighth sovereign has become the first uk coin to sell for one million pounds. it was bought by a private collector, bringing it back from the us in a deal brokered by the royal mint. 0ur personal finance reporter kevin peachey was given exclusive access to see it. revealed, a £1 million treasure. 22 millimetres across weighing nearly eight grams and with a face value ofjust £1. this coin is worth so much more because only six such sovereigns were ever made as part of a trial set. this is why. i have found it impossible to carry the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge my duties as king as i would

wish to do. edward viii abdicated in december 1936, a month before the sovereigns were due to go into mass production. what fascinates collectors and historians isn't just its rarity but how the king broke the rules. for centuries, convention dictated that each new monarch faced the opposite direction to its predecessor, but not edward. so, edward viii is quite a vain characterand the way the monarch faces should alternate by reign. the long tradition that goes back centuries, but edward viii would have been the first monarch to have broken those centuries of tradition, purely because of vanity. he insisted on facing the same way as his father because he believed that that was his best side. this coin is so rare and precious i am not allowed to touch it. nearly six years ago, it sold for a record half £1 million but the new owner says, for a once in a lifetime opportunity, they were prepared to pay twice as much. when you are paying £1 million,

you want the real thing. here in a lab at the royal mint, they test and authenticate coins and precious metals. we are able to provide a service to our customers where they can feel confident in buying coins, especially coins of this significant amount of money that they can feel confident that it has been through the authenticity checks that we do here at the royal mint and that it is a genuine coin and that they paid a fair price for it. a price which, for the time being at least, makes this the uk's most valuable coin. kevin peachey, bbc news. let's return to glasgow — the bbc is taking a closer look at the climate changes glasgow will have to make as part of our series "our planet matters". hi anita. hi, thank you and welcome back to the glasgow science centre. lots of children enjoying the exhibits here today and you know when scotland's first minister

declared a climate emergency, she said she was inspired to do so by young climate campaigners and talking to the children here, they all have very strong opinions, they know about this subject is let's just show you a shot of where we are, just across the river from the sec. you can see the building at the river on the opposite side of the banks of the clyde and that is going to bea banks of the clyde and that is going to be a focal point for cop26, the conference of parties which is the major un summit which will take place in glasgow towards the end of this year to talk about the challenges of meeting that target and making sure that global temperatures do not rise above 1.5 celsius so, one of the things we are doing today in glasgow which has set this ambitious target of becoming carbon neutral by 2030 is asking the question, how does that actually happen? what you have to change? how quickly does it have to change? what

is the role for everyone from big business to the local authorities, to individuals. sojoining me here is claire gibson, and joe. you deliver carbon literacy training, what is that? we have a whole different types of training that we deliver. my response ability is delivering cabinet literacy training for organisations across scotla nd training for organisations across scotland so we have delivered this training from the shetland island to the borders and it is all about helping people understand what climate change is, how it impacts our planet and help them make informed choices about how they can reduce their impact on the environment. as you also manage grants, don't you, which are given to small—scale projects and individuals to try and make a difference? yes, so the scottish

government has provided the climate challenge fund with money over the last a of 11 years so it has been running since 2008 and we have funded 1100 projects approximately around scotland which does things which tackles waste, low carbon transport options, tackling energy from the homes and that funding has totalled round about hundred and £4 million since 2008. 0k, and one of the beneficiaries of one of those gra nts the beneficiaries of one of those grants is simple to use forum is tell us what you have done with that money? so, so we ran a lot of bike workshops encouraging people to fix their own bikes and develop cycling skills to cycle to school instead of taking cars. we also up cycle a lot of bikes that would go to landfill and given them out amongst the community. and the community garden and they work with a lot of young

people in the nursery, primary schools, encourage them to grow their own food, encouraging local households to grow their own food and to make more planet conscious life style and to make more planet conscious lifestyle decisions when it comes to a plant —based diet. we also run twice weekly community meals where we divert food that would go to landfill from supermarkets and use that as small—scale food bank that is addressing food poverty in our community whilst saving tonnes on carbon carbon emissions. how much engagement has there been in the project since it started? as it grown? we have had fantastic engagement and the community are really behind us, we have great volunteers. like you say, we do a lot which wouldn't be possible with the small staff team we have. we have about 50 volunteers in and out all the time helping and thousands of children and adults. it is an

ambitious goal that got electric glasgow has to become carbon neutral by2030, glasgow has to become carbon neutral by 2030, do you think it is achievable? i think we really need to be ambitious. climate change is a massive problem and we are facing a climate crisis. it was declared a climate crisis. it was declared a climate emergency in scotland so absolutely, i think it is achievable if we all work together to achieve those ambitious goals. joe, how important do you think those smaller projects, the individual actions are in terms of adding up to that overall goal? well, it is phenomenally important because i think it is easy to forget in certain circles homogenised to some people are. for example, last month alone i spoke to two separate people who had never even heard of climate change. they had no idea what it was so change. they had no idea what it was so if you are not reaching these marginalised individuals, you are leaving them behind bit also you're missing out on whole communities really. something you're passionate about any cycling aspect is that you

say there are cycling lanes are more affluent areas in glasgow but not in less afflu e nt affluent areas in glasgow but not in less affluent areas so that is a message you want to get out there presumably? yes, definitely. we feel that it presumably? yes, definitely. we feel thatitis presumably? yes, definitely. we feel that it is dismal anyway, we are supposedly living in a climate emergency but only 2% of the transport emergency delete macro budget dedicated to this. the money thatis budget dedicated to this. the money that is being spent is focusing on the more affluent areas and we have issues where kids from blackhill or wanting to go to a secondary school have to cross a bridge over the busiest motorway in scotland and thatis busiest motorway in scotland and that is not realistic to expect them to cycle there. well, joe and claire it has been fascinating to hear from you and hear about some of those projects which are really trying to tackle climate change from the ground up. let me remind you that if you want to find out more about climate change and what you can do, go to our website,

bbc.co.uk/news or the bbc news app. we are here at the glasgow science centre and will be here throughout the day talking to lots more guests but those children are having lots of fun but those children are having lots offun and but those children are having lots of fun and really having their say about what they want to happen in the future. scotland's future are delivering projects which can help with climate change. they are really engaged which is great to see. let's go back to rebecca. great to see you, talk to you later. in a moment we'll have all the business news, but first the headlines on bbc news: psychiatrists and campaigners have called for social media companies to be forced to hand over data to universities, for research into the potential harms of using the technology. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, has led friday prayers in the capital tehran, for the first time in eight years.

the european parliament's brexit co—ordinator, guy verhofstadt, has said he's been told that there will be no automatic deportation of eu citizens. retail sales fell again in december as a christmas shopping spree failed to materialise. monthly volumes fell by 0.6% in december, the fifth month in a row without growth — that's according to the office for national statistics. flybe has denied reports it received a payment holiday of up to £100 million from the state. the regional airline says it's agreed a payment plan with hmrc for "less than £10 million" and only for a "matter of months" before the tax and duties are paid off. nontheless, rival airline bosses say the arrangment is unfair. china's economy grew last

year at the slowest pace in almost three decades. official figures show that the world's second largest economy expanded by 6.1% in 2019 from the year before. it comes after almost two years of trade tensions with the us and weak domestic demand. the uk could soon see a revolution in how we charge electric vehicles on our streets, as the transport secretary today a £3.4 million pound investment in 6 months worth of trials for the wireless charging of electric taxis in nottingham. wireless charging at taxi ranks means multiple taxis could recharge at once. chris pateman—jones, chief executive of connected kerb, a company developing wireless charging technology.

asi as i understand, you are not directly involved in this particular trial in nottingham but you have been involved in many like it so do you welcome this trial which is being supported by the government? certainly, it is an example of the momentum that is building in this market and particularly the momentum around trying to have a diverse tide set of ways you can charge cards so i think this is really great in terms of being able to increase the accessibility of vehicles and charging solutions particularly for disabled people but also for taxi drivers who can maximise the time and they are in the vehicle and charge rather than having to get a dedicated charging zone is full that they can do this while they are actually waiting for fares so we think it is a great idea. what are the biggest challenges with this? that is an interesting question. we think the vehicles are pretty much nearly that, the range of vehicles is great now in terms of the actual

mileage they can do and the cost is coming down all the time. the challenge is really the infrastructure so actually being able to get people the opportunity is to charge their car as conveniently and accessibly as possible so that means having a far greater number of charges out on the street was up i think induction is possibly one of the solutions, particularly where you have extremely crowded streets already so where you have a coronation street style high density population, there simply isn't the room to put charges on the street in the way that we would like so induction is possibly a solution for that will the equally here in the taxi rank solution, there is an opportunity to maximise there is an opportunity to maximise the time that taxi drivers spend in their vehicles. you mention problems with infrastructure and the cost, it is something you would like to see the government becoming more involved in? i think you've seen from today that the government is quite a actively involved. i think there is a role that the manufacturers have to play as well and organisations like myself or

ours have to play in deploying the actual technology. i think the role the governor and head play is through incentives i think some of the regional mayors are doing a greatjob the regional mayors are doing a great job with the the regional mayors are doing a greatjob with the emission zones they are imposing but i think the role the government could play is setting standards base for the charging technology and also for bringing the different organisations together so, for example, taking the induction play specifically, the actual technology is pretty easy to do, the challenge is getting the car to speak to the induction charging point so that is quite a complex debate because you have to bring the automated manufacturers together with the charging technology developers together with the council. 0k, chris, really good to talk to you that, thank you. lawyers acting for the ousted nissan boss carlos ghosn have hit back after the car giant accused him of misusing the firm's money for events abroad — including a party at the palace of versailles and trips to rio de janeiro carnivals.

microsoft has pledged to remove "all of the carbon" from the environment that it has emitted since the company was founded in 1975.it is a big goal and one that the chief executive satya nadella hopes to achieve by 2050. the ftse just got a shot in the arm as weak uk retail data hit sterling on the head with investors rushing in to price a potential interest rate cut from the bank of england. interestingly, while the export—heavy ftse100 is on the rise, so is the ftse 250 midcap index, perhaps signalling that investors believe a rate cut could benefit uk plc as a whole. that's all the business news. some breaking news that the european

parliament brexit coordinator he said he had been given an assurance that eu citizens who don't apply for the status in time won't get automatic deportation, downing street has now confirmed that eu citizens will not be automatically deported if they fail to sign up to the government settled status scheme by the deadline which isjune next year. as i say, the confirmation from downing street came after the european pa rliament‘s from downing street came after the european parliament's brexit coordinator said he had received assurances from the government will stop he did meet the brexit minister yesterday. now it's time for a look at the weather. the weekend is looking largely settled, some drier and brighter weather in many areas as what has been a wet and windy week. some showers around this morning and into the afternoon, that was a scene in cornwall not that long ago, rainbow

has been spotted by our weather watchers as showers move their way eastwards was not an area of low pressure out to the north, that is giving us some fairly blustery conditions through scotland, by the show is moving in and this line of rain moving its way southwards and across scotland and northern ireland so short spell of rain here, showers moving their way eastwards, they will still be quite heavy into the afternoon, as few more behind that but generally speaking across western areas a little bit brighter thanit western areas a little bit brighter than it was this morning pulled the maximum temperatures getting to around seven to nine or 10 celsius was upa around seven to nine or 10 celsius was up a bit chillier compared to yesterday pulled up through tonight, a lot of those showers move away for england and wales, more coming into scotla nd england and wales, more coming into scotland and some snow ever higher ground but with clear skies overnight tonight across many parts, we will see a faster developing for that we haven't seen this for a while. temperatures close to if not below freezing, especially across rural areas. as for the weekend, i mentioned it will turn a settled and thatis mentioned it will turn a settled and that is because we have a stonking area of high pressure developing and

that will really settle things down so well there will be some showers across scotland, wintry ever higher ground on saturday morning, those will tend to clear away and for most of us there will be lots of sunshine and some light winds. into the afternoon, very pleasant conditions for many of us, maximum temperatures and about 69 celsius. it will feel quite chilly, especially after that frost in the morning. —— six to nine celsius. look how these blues come across the map and that is the first temperatures down again, close to or below freezing for the —3 or minus four degrees in rural areas of england. as we go through sunday, yes that frosty start, there could be one or two frosty patches around, they will tend to clear away and we are looking at more dry weather, more sunshine light winds again, very pleasant if you want to get out and about over the weekend, temperatures round about six to eight celsius was not this area of high pressure will stick around into next week, especially for england

and wales. 0ne weather system coming south which will bring a bit more cloud but high pressure generally speaking into next week so for most of us it will stay dry into next week. there will be some cloud around, it will be hard to pin down at this stage so stay tuned to the forecast but i think many of us can agree that it will be very welcome after the wet and windy conditions of recent days. goodbye.

you re watching bbc newsroom live. it's midday and these are the main stories this morning. psychiatrists and campaigners call for social media companies to be forced to hand over data to universities, for research into the potential harm of using the technology. we, as a world, notjust the country, would better understand the sort of pressures and problems that are being forced upon young people by social media platforms. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, defends the country's military over the shooting down of a passenger plane, as he leads friday prayers. the european parliament's brexit co—ordinator, guy verhofstadt, we're in glasgow for our series,

our planet matters, the city has committed itself to become the first net zero emissions city in the uk. iamat i am at the glasgow science centre, as we ask how exactly glasgow is going to deliver on that goal. it has an ambitious one, but people here say they have got to be as the city prepares for a major climate conference at the end of the year. in sport, a century from ben stokes helps england build a sizeable first innings total on day two of the third test against south africa. also coming up... coining it in — a sovereign, struck when edward the eighth was king, has become the first british coin to sell for £1 million. good afternoon, welcome

to bbc newsroom live. the eu parliament's chief brexit neogtiator says he's been given key assurances there will be no automatic deportation of eu citizens they have until june they have untiljune 2021 to make their intentions known. guy verhofstadt said he had received assurances from the government yesterday. let's talk to our political correspondent iain watson. it is not that surprising but it is interesting to get the confirmation. the government had said that people applying for settle status would be treated sympathetically. it has also been said to be a grace period, beyond the official deadline ofjune 2021. but also, they had said in the past nonetheless to that emigration laws would apply, so theoretically, people could indeed be deported if

they did not stick within those laws. so it will be reassuring for some of the eu citizens, that this has now been confirmed by downing street. downing street woodside, there are more than two and a half million, 3 million who have settled for settle status but there are those who are harder to reach, he mightfind it those who are harder to reach, he might find it difficult to apply electronically for example. and now the onus appears to be on finding out why they have not applied by the end of next year, rather than looking at any kind of mechanisms for removal. it was interesting that guy verhofstadt who has usually been pretty critical of the government on eu citizens' rights, he has also been accused in the past of scaremongering by the government over this issue, but following a meeting with the brexit secretary yesterday, he now seems to be reassured that a number of points, so for example there is meant to be a new independent monitoring body find out how this will work after brexit. he said the government is open to the possibility that

citizens, residency, might be on the body themselves. there have been worries about whether people would have documentary proof of their settle status, worries that could be another windrush type scandal where people could not prove their right to be here even though they had lived here for many years and he said the government have now suggested that perhaps proof of status could be punted out, there could be a hard copy. but also he said he was reassured by the changing attitude now as he sought, towards making sure people were not automatically removed if they did not have that status. i wanted to be sure that there is no automatically a deportation of these people, even after the grace period, because it can be people were very vulnerable. and you had that assurance? and the idea will be that even for these people, after the grace period, there will be a possibility to apply, giving the grounds why it was not possible to do it within the normal procedures. guy verhofstadt sounding

uncharacteristically conservatory towards the govan position, this is not put the issue to bed, some people have not settled for settle cities have pre—settle status, leaving mps to make sure their own government does not shift the goalposts and people will ultimately be allowed to stay here if they have been resident for more than five yea rs. been resident for more than five years. certainly it seems with brexit just two weeks away, years. certainly it seems with brexitjust two weeks away, there has been some kind of meeting of minds between a key figure in the european parliament and downing street. social media companies, such as facebook, twitter and instagram, should be forced to share details about how young people use their sites and the way they tailor content. proposals by the royal college of psychiatrists could see companies face a new tax, which would fund research into a how a child's online activity affects their mental health. angus crawford reports. she had so much to offer. molly russell's death... and that's gone. ..sparked a national outcry.

these are companies that count their profits in the billions. and they turn round and say to us that they can't protect our children? questions about young people and mental health. do you have the power to compel them to do what you think needs to be done? yes, absolutely. and demands for greater regulation. announced in the queen's speech, the government's plans for a new independent regulator and a statutory duty of care. my ministers will develop legislation to improve internet safety for all. but the royal college of psychiatrists wants tougher action. social media companies are very wealthy. they have got a huge amount of knowledge, they can create complex algorithms which hook young people into their platforms. why can't they be using that same amount of energy, knowledge and funding to try and harness the positive benefits, and help try and protect children and young people more? tech giants should be forced to share data with university researchers and be taxed on their global turn over.

new apps should be designed to be age—appropriate. radical solutions, which won't be popular with an industry making billions from the children who use its products. angus crawford, bbc news. molly russell, who we saw in angus's report, was 14 when she died, days before her birthday in 2017, after viewing graphic self—harm and suicide material on instagram. herfather, ian, said this morning, there was an urgent need for greater action. collectively, when you start looking at those images on the internet, the algorithms that are there start pushing more and more of those images and such content to you, and they connect you with other people who are in a similar, desperate place. and there's an element of self—help, i'm sure there's an element of self—help that goes on, but there is an absence

of professional help on those platforms and an absence of real care. and i think it's even possible that the public, obvious platforms can lead you to darker places on the internet, where there is much more discussion about suicide. and it's just a horrible spiral, a vicious circle that leads you into a very desperate place. i think it could be quite hard, that's what the social media companies seem to say, they seem to say it takes... it's not as easy as we might think, it's taking them a long time to inch their way to safer platforms. i mean, some measures have been taken, but i don't they have yet moved fast enough or gone far enough, because there is still too much dangerous, harmful content online. will guyatt is a tech expert, he's in stroud. what you anticipate the response of the social media companies to be to

this request? i think they will be very reluctant. cases that we hear like that are incredibly tragic but they are also very few and far between. what i would like as someone who has worked for facebook and instagram and has been in technology for nearly 20 years, i would like to go as far as the social networks giving this information over so we can prove conclusively either way, what the impact of social media is on young people. at the moment, we have surveys or opinion, what we have not got is access. there is an incredible emit of information about us. that comes from using their services essentially. a great deal of data that may help researchers. the challenges faced with social media want to hear what those researchers and universities find out. how likely are you, do you think, are they to find hand—out

this information? it is not in their interest as it? it would be incredibly tricky at the moment. i think there have been occasions where facebook has worked with universities and organisations and other social networks have too but that data is very tightly controlled. if you hand over that information, or make it publicly available to use in research, that is not going to be in there we met. thinking about 2020 for all of these social networks and tech companies, on one hand they are desperately trying not to be regulated by governments around the world, they are trying to remain self—regulatory. 0n the other hand you have the impact of social media and technology. i don't necessarily know whether it is the tech companies, the social networks to blame for creating services and products we want to use, or if this is just products we want to use, or if this isjust a side products we want to use, or if this is just a side product of being products we want to use, or if this isjust a side product of being in an ever connected world. i am talking to you from my mo mobile phonein talking to you from my mo mobile

phone in gloucestershire. it has a seismic shift in the last ten years and recently don't have the research evidence to see the effect on our culture and young people. evidence to see the effect on our culture and young peoplem evidence to see the effect on our culture and young people. it is interesting you are saying they should hand over the material and an actual length, or not, could be established. good to talk to you. —— an actual link. i want to bring you some news from heathrow. dozens of planes were diverted or delayed this morning at heathrow because of a royal air force lodge. the raf‘s request for airspace closure was requested and unplanned, it was closed for around 20 minutes at 9am this morning. we know that several aeroplanes were forced to land at other airports including gatwick, sta nsted

forced to land at other airports including gatwick, stansted and luton. several other flights were delayed for up to one hour as aircraft were kept in stacks around london while they were waiting for permission to land. a spokesman for heathrow said arrivals were paused briefly this morning, due to an raf request for an operational flight within part of heathrow airspace. it said arrivals are now operating as normal. since we have received that report, we have also received a statement from the raf who have confirmed that a flight was completed this morning by a plane from raf northolt, the slight was coordinated with air traffic control at heathrow —— this flight. but had to extend by what it says is a few minutes. the minor delays caused to civilian air traffic are regretted. those delays at heathrow and planes

diverted but everything now appears to be back to normal. a british teenager who was found guilty in cyprus of causing public mischief, after she reported she'd been raped by a group of men, has launched an appeal against her conviction. the 19—year—old returned to the uk last week. she says that it was under police pressure that she retracted her report of gang rape. two hospitals which were being built by the engineering giant, carillion, when the firm collapsed, will be delayed, according to the national audit office. the royal liverpool and the midland metropolitan won't be completed until 2022 and each will cost around £300 million more than originally thought. the government says it is giving both trusts extra funding to minimise further delays.

thousands of people who raised money for big ben to chime at when brick britain leaves the eu at the end of the month will be disappointed. more on today's main stories coming up on newsroom live here on the bbc news channel, but now we say goodbye to viewers on bbc two. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, has appealed for unity following anti—government protests last week over the accidental shooting down of a passenger plane. leading friday prayers in tehran, for the first time in eight years, he described the downing of the ukrainian airliner as tragic. he told thousands of worshippers that the killing by the united states earlier this month of the iranian general, qassem soleimani, was a cowardly assassination. 0ur middle east correspondent lina sinjab is in beirut. very strong words from the supremely. tell us a little bit more

about what he said. basically, this isa about what he said. basically, this is a day where he wanted to rally support and have national unity. but also, at the same time, try to camden the situation, as anger controlled the streets, following the announcement that the army, the revolutionary guard, were actually responsible for the downing of the ukrainian plane that took the lives of almost hundred and 70 passengers, both iranians and canadians. —— 170. after the assassination of general soleimani, i think the iranians leadership, especially hardliners, it isa leadership, especially hardliners, it is a mistake as they describe it, done by the army that is troubling them at home because of the anger that fuelled the street. so, today's message by the supreme leader khamenei humanity and this is the first time he leads the players, ——

prayers. he wants to send a message of coming down to the people but also appear to be defiant against the americans and against any kind of turmoil that might affect the country. how will that message be received do you think? it is certainly turmoil time for iran. they are looking weaker regionally, wea ker they are looking weaker regionally, weaker among their sheer supporters and loyalists, especially after today, the supreme leaders says the response by targeting the american base two in iraq was a sufficient and appropriate response. which means there isn't any further escalation amongst the hardliners, they wanted more actions against the americans. but this particular message means that he wants to

regain the trust of the streets and de—escalate tension. even said he is willing to resume negotiations on the nuclear deal but made it clear he will not talk to the americans. he is definitely appeasing the public and trying to calm down the situation. how the public will receive that, how well the pragmatics in the iranians leadership to cover the hardliners, thatis leadership to cover the hardliners, that is yet to be seen. thanks so much for that update. sport now. angling's cricketers had a bit of a wobble since we last spoke. some wickets down on the second day of the test. ben stokes went for 120. jos buttler has just gone for one. still looks like a big first innings total for still looks like a big first innings totalfor england. still looks like a big first innings

total for england. now, still looks like a big first innings totalfor england. now, 356—6. 0llie pope going well. one other line from the cricket, the south african fast bowler kagiso rabada will miss the final test because of his celebration yesterday, when he tookjoe root‘s wicket. the icc deemed it to be overly provocative and gave him a demerit point, his fourth in a 24 month period which has triggered a one—match ban. the reigning premiership and european rugby union champions saracens could be relegated in a matter of days unless they can prove that they are now complying with salary cap rules. they've already been docked 35 points and fined £5 million for breaking the cap for the past 3 seasons. here's our sports news reporter laura scott. the premiership rugby clubs met in london on tuesday. they decided they wa nt to ta ke london on tuesday. they decided they want to take some pretty tough action on saracens to ensure they can improve the compliance this

season. it is important they have absolutely crystal clear, they are not willing to take any chances this time. this morning, saracens convened all their players and staff to update them on discussions. what seems to be the case is that they are seems to be the case is that they a re really seems to be the case is that they are really struggling to get within the cat this season. struggling to off—load players, we have not seen any yet, so it seems more and more certain that they will be relegated, if they cannot put proven clients. there is still a chance they could have a fresh audit of them this season, past seasons. that could bring fresh sanctions and charges. harriet dart has come through qualifying in melbourne to make it into the australian open main draw for the second year running, that means that there'll be four british women in the first round. that includes johanna konta, but she's had very limited preparations. the british number one has only played in one tournment since the us open in september as she manages a knee problem. because of that she says she won't play in the fed cup this year.

it isa it is a tough decision to make because that copy something that has a lwa ys because that copy something that has always been very close to my heart andi always been very close to my heart and i have had some incredible experiences in my career, am definitely looking to have some more but for the season, because it is an 0lympic season as well, i just but for the season, because it is an 0lympic season as well, ijust need to ta ke 0lympic season as well, ijust need to take care of my body. and make something decisions that are not a lwa ys something decisions that are not always easy but will hopefully help have the longevity that i want. that's all the sport for now. england 363—6. i'll have more for you in the next hour. glasgow recently became the first city in the uk to pledge to become carbon neutral over the next 20 years. it will mean radically cutting harmful emissions and planting enough trees to absorb the carbon in any remaining fumes. it comes as the city prepares to host an international summit on climate change in november. the bbc is taking a closer look

at the changes glasgow will have to make as part of our series, our planet matters. 0ur correspondent annita mcveigh is in glasgow today and we can talk to her now. hello again. hello everyone. welcome back to the glasgow science centre. it had got a little quiet, i think some of the children who were here earlier have gone to get lunch but they must have eaten very quickly because they are starting to come backin because they are starting to come back in again. really engaging with the exhibits here, they are learning about hydro tidal wave power, looking at questions such as how can we use our energy resources sustainably, all the exhibits around this particular part of the science centre. if we take a look at what is just opposite us here, across the river clyde, and we take a look out through the window, as we look at the children, looking at some of those exhibits, there you have it.

you have the sec, which will be the hub of the focus for that massive climate conference. it is due to ta ke climate conference. it is due to take place here at the end of the year. up to 200 world leaders gathering in glasgow but some 30,000 delegates probably based on previous climate conferences organised by the united nations. coming up with an international response, it is hoped, to the climate emergency. and of course, glasgow is a fascinating place for that summit to be taking place. because this is a city that is trying to not only talk the talk on climate change, but to walk the walk as well. pledging, saying it wa nts walk as well. pledging, saying it wants as a goal, to become carbon neutral by the end of this decade. by neutral by the end of this decade. by 2030. how exactly does a big city do that? that is a question our science editor has been looking at. the morning rush hour in glasgow, commuters pouring into scotland's biggest city.

neraly all their cars releasing pollution. motorways run straight through glasgow. for decades, the car has been king. but now, there's a radical plan to go carbon neutral. new charging points for electric vehicles are being installed. the aim is to make the city green in ten years. and the council's gritting lorries are going to be adapted to run on clean hydrogen, as well as diesel. but this is only one very small part of a long list of what needs to be done. how big a challenge is it? getting to carbon neutral by 2030 is a big challenge. it is certainly one we're taking very seriously, and it's not enough for a few people in the council to be working on that. it's a challenge that everybody has to take part in, that we need to get everybody across the city engaged with, and that we need to be working on now. already, more and more of the uk's electricity is becoming carbon free.

here on the edge of glasgow is one of europe's largest wind farms. there are big plans for many more turbines, and for solar panels. but going totally carbon neutral won't be easy. we've done some studies recently which show that we need to start installing 4,000 heat pumps and electric vehicle charging points every day across the uk. every day? every day, if we're going to meet the targets that we set ourselves for becoming carbon neutral. is that remotely feasible? if we start now. hardest of all will be making glasgow's housing greener, and that is the case across the country, because most homes are heated by gas. a mass of pipes being worked on here is part of a scheme to draw warmth from the river clyde and use it to heat an entire district. we are not burning anything on the site, that's the beauty of it. i asked dave pearson, who is in charge of the project, if glasgow is really on course to be carbon neutral. i don't think so. i think, in all honesty, momentum is all about progress. there's lots of ideas, lots of talk, but we need to actually decide

that the city will become gas free by 2030, and how best to do that. at the moment, we haven't even started. it is hard to believe, as things stand, how glasgow or any major city, could possibly be carbon neutral in as little as ten years' time, but the council says it wants to send a signal that at least it is trying. and this matters, because an international summit on climate change is due to take place here in november, and the world will be watching what this city does. you saw her there in the report, she is with me now. welcome hazel. we will talk about renewable energy in a few minutes but you also run the power grid in the south of scotland. let's look at the question of the energy needs of somewhere like scotland. what unique challenges do

you see for glasgow in terms of achieving that target, being carbon neutral by 2030? as you said, renewa bles neutral by 2030? as you said, renewables are important but what is just as, if not more important, is ensuring the grid that will deliver this renewable energy is fit for purpose. we need to invest now to make sure that grid is ready for the demand that is coming and that is a con conversation means to have with the government and regulators. because when someone wants a plug in their vehicle or if for example we have ordered some electric vehicles and have delivered them to glasgow, to test the impact charging a bus has on the grid. if you plug in one bus the charge, effectively that is the equivalent to adding 40 houses onto the system. 40 houses worth of electricity to charge one electric bass? that's right, and glasgow is a city where public transport is a solution for the electrification agenda because i am much if you try to cycle around glasgow but it is pretty difficult. say i haven't tried that. there are a lot of

hills, so cycling in an electric way is more practical. and electric bass has its own carbon footprint which leads us under this discussion of renewa bles leads us under this discussion of renewables and how they can be made fit for purpose to achieve this carbon neutral target? —— electric bass. we operate the biggest onshore wind farm just outside glasgow and what we're doing with it is installing a battery the size of a small supermarket to that site, to improve the sterility of energy provided to the grid and other wind farms around the uk we are considering the possibility of including solar panels to really maximise the connections that we have, provide that stable energy the great needs. what sort of financial investment are you talking about, have you got a figure for that?” could not pluck a figure out of the air but we know that in order to invest in the way we need to, we need to do it now, we need to keep the costs down. we did some studies last year that showed that we need

to install 4000 electric vehicle chargers and heat pumps everyday in the uk to meet the 2030 target and the uk to meet the 2030 target and the longer we leave that, the more expensive it will become so we need to get cracking. to meet the carbon neutral target for 2030, a massive amount of coordination is needed between every provider like yourselves, individuals, the city authorities, is that sort of coordination they are yet in your opinion? that is such an important point. the way investment in the great is carried out at the moment is centralised with off gym in london and we strongly believe that decision making needs to be devolved toa decision making needs to be devolved to a local level to give, whether it is glasgow city council or a rural community, those are the ones that know best what their city committee needs. what i have heard today“ that yes it is absolutely right that glasgow should be ambitious, that the city has to be, but oh everywhere has to be in order to deal with climate change, but do you

think this carbon neutral target by the end of the decade is achievable? absolutely. if we start now it is still achievable. nobody would have known that ten years ago we would be where we are now, talking about huge when with batteries and solar and all sorts of technology advancing all sorts of technology advancing all the time, so we have to believe it's achievable and quite frankly don't think we have a choice. thank you hazel from scottishpower. i think those are two of the key themes coming out from the conversations today. the need for coordination across every part of society, to achieve those goals on becoming carbon neutral. dealing with climate change. that coordination is absolutely 60 essential if places like glasgow are to set the sort of example they want to set the sort of example they want to set the sort of example they want to set and actually achieve that aim. to find out more, and what you can do to help, what you can do to become greener and more carbon neutral, do go to our website.

right now, it is time for a look at the weather forecast. i was watching the clouds across glasgow building, plenty of cloud but we may see some showers and rainbows with you in the next hour or two. plenty of wind to drive the wind farms but after today, a very different picture. i think some drying weather. for the rest of the day, quite chilly out there but we are seeing some snow falling over the hills, and mountains across the north but we could even see some across the mirrors in the south—west, across the brecon beacons as well with hail and thunder. there is that band of shower coming towards glasgow city so it feels shallow. today is the day of transition. as we go through this evening and overnight, temperatures will fall away under

the clearing skies. we will still have some cloud and wintry showers for the most part across scotland, but elsewhere, much colder as we go through the night. widespread frost, we haven't seen many of those this winter so if you are out early tomorrow morning there could be ice patches, scraping the cars but then it is high—pressure for the next while. four, five or six days, drying weather for many that have been affected blight by flooding. there is your evidence, lots of sunshine for the weekend.

hello, this is bbc newsroom live. the headlines: eu citizens will not be automatically deported if they fail to sign up to the government's settled status scheme, downing street confirms. psychiatrists and campaigners have called for social media companies to be forced to hand over data to universities, for research into the potential harms

of using the technology. iran's supreme leader, ayatollah ali khamenei, has led friday prayers in the capital tehran for the first time in eight years. rebecca long—bailey and emily thornberry set out their visions for the labour party, as they launch their rival bids to succeed jeremy corbyn as leader. and a sovereign, struck when edward the eighth was king, has become the first british coin to sell for a million pounds. also coming up: we're in glasgow for our series "our planet matters." the city has committed itself to become the first net zero emissions city in the uk. an edward the eighth sovereign has become the first uk coin to sell for one million pounds.

it was bought by a private collector, bringing it back from the us in a deal brokered by the royal mint. 0ur personal finance reporter kevin peachey was given exclusive access to see it. revealed, a £1 million treasure. 22 millimetres across weighing nearly eight grams and with a face value ofjust £1. this coin is worth so much more because only six such sovereigns were ever made as part of a trial set. this is why. i have found it impossible to carry the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge my duties as king as i would wish to do. edward viii abdicated in december 1936, a month before the sovereigns were due to go into mass production. what fascinates collectors and historians isn't just its rarity but how the king broke the rules. for centuries, convention dictated that each new monarch faced the opposite direction to its predecessor, but not edward.

so, edward viii is quite a vain characterand the way the monarch faces should alternate by reign. the long tradition that goes back centuries, but edward viii would have been the first monarch to have broken those centuries of tradition, purely because of vanity. he insisted on facing the same way as his father because he believed that that was his best side. this coin is so rare and precious i am not allowed to touch it. nearly six years ago, it sold for a record half £1 million but the new owner says, for a once in a lifetime opportunity, they were prepared to pay twice as much. when you are paying £1 million, you want the real thing. here in a lab at the royal mint, they test and authenticate coins and precious metals. we are able to provide a service to our customers where they can feel confident in buying coins, especially coins of this significant amount of money that they can feel confident that it has been through the authenticity checks that we do here at the royal mint and that it is a genuine coin and that they paid a fair price for it. a price which, for the time being at least, makes

this the uk's most valuable coin. kevin peachey, bbc news. greta has been speaking out about the lack of action on climate change we are now in a new year and have entered a new decade. so far in this decade we have seen no signs whatsoever that real climate action is coming and that has to change. to the world leaders and those in power, i would like to say that you haven't seen anything yet. you have

not seen the end of us, we can assure you of that. that is the message that we will bring to the economic forum next week. let's go back to glasgow, which recently became the first city in the uk to pledge to become carbon neutral over the next 20 years. the bbc is taking a closer look at the changes glasgow will have to make as part of our series ‘0ur planet matters'. thank you and looking at greta thunberg there, such an inspiration, not just to young thunberg there, such an inspiration, notjust to young people but in particular young people have become engaged with climate protest and certainly people visiting the

science centre today are very aware of. the first minister said she was inspired by those young climate activists and pick up on the discussion we had a few minutes ago with scottishpower because joining me is the director at the glasgow school of art. thank you for coming along. you are currently running a conference in the highlands and it is called designing a future that won't cost the earth the. tell us more. thank you, we are running a school in the highlands, it is our fifth one and at winter school at we bring together people all over the world, students and professors to address the challenge of the day and this year, the challenge is climate change so we are gathering together for two weeks intensively to address that challenge. are you talking

about the more sustainable products and more sustainable delivery of solutions? yes, we are looking at product and services so first this week we are scoping out the territory, literally, where we are, the people, the place and in relation to the planet and then looking at what we need to bring together from all of the fields of expertise to create a solution for tomorrow and then be able to deliver them. it is very important to do that in all of scotland and in the big cities but also in other parts was not and you have got organisations like google getting involved? yes, very much so. today as we speak we started this week and we have professors, students, from the uk, france, germany, portugal and japan, altogether and then next week arriving are google ai from

seattle, a project co—founded by one of our graduates so the businesses are coming in to look at those products and services for the future. that is interesting because we have been talking about coordination of this effort to try and achieve the carbon neutral goal for glasgow by the end of the decade and a few minutes ago we spoke to scottishpower and they said that it is all very well talking about renewa bles is all very well talking about renewables but it has to be fit to deliver those renewables. they said 40 houses worth of electricity using a giant connector to charge one of those electric buses for example that they supplied so here you are, the designers, you are about delivering solutions, aren't you? yes, andl delivering solutions, aren't you? yes, and i think the challenge for todayis yes, and i think the challenge for today is to get the right people in the room in different fields of expertise and very much representatives of the communities and the public round about those

places to co—design the solutions for the future because it is not really about one expertise, one area, one discipline, it is about doing all of that together. for the glasgow school of art, our area of design innovation is what we do creative engagement, we collectively resolve problems. so, getting the right people in the room, later this year, over the other side of the clyde from where we are now, you are going to have around 200 world leaders, many delegates, climate scientist, lobbyists etc, tens of thousands of people in the room as it were. how hopeful are you and confident that they can deliver the international response that is needed to? how hopeful are you that glasgow can deliver its target of being carbon neutral by the end of this decade? well, scotland is the place for inclusivity and collaboration and i would like to think that our role in bringing this wonderful conference to glasgow and

having the ambitions and aspirations that we have is that we can also facilitate those kinds of conversations to lead to real development and implementation because that is actually what we need now. professor, thank you very much. the director of glasgow school of art who i think is buzzing with ideas at this point? absolutely. 0k, wonderful. thank you so much. let me just remind you, it is notjust about what we are doing today at the bbc but it is going to be a series of special programming throughout the year looking at climate change and what you can do and if you want to find out more about that right now you can go to our website or the bbc news app. much more from us throughout the day but now let's go back to the studio.

now, all the business news. in the business news: retail sales fell again in december as a christmas shopping spree failed to materialise. monthly volumes fell by 0.6% in december, the fifth month in a row without growth — that's according to the office for national statistics. flybe has denied reports. the regional airline has said it has agreed a payment plan with hmrc for less tha n agreed a payment plan with hmrc for less than ten million and only for a matter of months. before the tax and duties are paid off. china's economy grew last year at the slowest pace in almost three decades. official figures show that the world's second largest economy expanded by 6.1% in 2019 from the year before. it comes after almost two years of trade tensions with the us and weak domestic demand.

microsoft have pledged to become carbon negative and by 2050 it hopes to have wiped out is carbon footprint altogether by removing all the carbon it has ever omitted it since it was founded back in 1975. 0ur correspondent spoke to the microsoft president. we have a lot of confidence that we can achieve these goals. in part, we will need to become carbon negative by reducing our own emissions very substantially. not just for ourselves but across our supply chain, have a so—called value chain as well. you're talking about ways that you might be able to remove carbon from the atmosphere, what are some of the ways you might be possible? ultimately, we need better technology, direct air capture for

example which runs the air through a machine and the machine removes the carbon from the air. it then sequesters that carbon under the earth and that is one of the reasons that among other things we are announcing today, the launch of the $1 billion climate innovation fund. greenpeace have been quick to point out that you offer your ai and machine learning to help oil and gas help get more fossil fuels are of the ground, how can its sit side by side with this? i think about where they will need to go, i think we should all recognise that we want to create a well that is more prosperous than it is today. we want to increase per capita gdp everywhere in the world. the second thing we should recognise is that that requires more energy. the world will need more energy a decade or two or three from now than it has today. so, we need to work with the energy companies today to help

enable them to become even stronger and greener in the future. any company once to use digital technology to become more environmentally sound, more carbon sensitive and that's a good day and we don't want to turn people away. some people say it is much better to stop emitting more carbon than trying to recovers recapture it later? i think if you ask economists around the world what will most influence the amount of oil we consume or the carbon that is omitted, i think you will be hard pressed to find somebody who says, let's put the digital technology to the top of the list, let's use digital technology to the contrary so that we can all become more environmentally sound. you're one of the only tech giants to make this pledge, when do you think the likes of apple, amazon, google will make

similar promises? i think we will see a lot of energy in the tax sector, in part because it is a sector, in part because it is a sector that is doing well. —— the tech sector. it can afford to make this kind of investments and it should. i think it is something where competition can make each of us where competition can make each of us better, we can make each other better and you always want to compete and do better with the people in your industry but at the end of the day, if we make each other better, the world is going to be better off and we should applaud each other as we each take these new steps. that was microsoft president brad smith talking to chris earlier. the ftse got a bit of a shot earlier. interestingly, the ftse100

on the rise but so is the ftse 250 mid—cap index which i can't show you here, perhaps suggesting that investors believe a cut could benefit uk plc as a whole, who knows. that's all the business news. growing numbers of asylum—seekers are trying to enter hungary illegally from serbia and romania. hungarian police say more than a hundred attempts are made to cross their border fence each night. nick thorpe reports from northern serbia. winter in northern serbia in the city subotica, in derelict railway buildings, dozens of migrants are trying to keep warm. some try to cross the fence night after night. others are just trying to survive the freezing weather. ethnic hungarian priest tibor varga has been helping the homeless, migrants and refugees for many years.

in his garden, he builds stoves from old barrels to install in the places where they seek shelter. we are just covering the bottom of the barrels so it will be insulated, because the heat would heat up all the metal, but if you have coverage like this, it will last longer. tibor‘s stoves are simple but effective. this one keeps 16 afghans warm in two rooms. he's just installed the new one in an upstairs room where the syrian kurds live. they are staying also in subotica and the surroundings, they try to get through the river tisza again without too much succeed. i would say it is a very desperate move of people trying in every place, but basically they are staying in serbia. some of the people here have come

from bosnia after trying for months to cross the border there and get to croatia. others have come up to serbia from macedonia, even greece. there's a growing number of people reaching northern serbia, but where can they go from here? one of the men recognised me. three years ago, i interviewed him in bulgaria. he reached france, but after more than two years there was deported. now he's trying again. we don't go in hungary because it's pants, it's a wall, we can't cross the border. so what are you doing here every day? every day we are waiting to the end of winter and the coming summer time so we can walk ten or 15 days in the jungle to go back to italy, france, germany. we stay here to help stay warm. we have blankets, this

is like our house, we can't sleep in the streets in the wintertime, yes? some migrants cross the border on cargo trains. hungarian police are on high alert and return all those they can this is a bitter war no border zone in winter for both the migrants trying to cross and the police trying to keep them out. nick thorpe, bbc news, northern serbia. the growth rate dropped in china as it came under pressure from weakening their weakening demand and the trade war with the united states. these numbers will turn heads. china of all countries

posting its slowest gdp growth in decades so you might expect a lot of panic here but actually there isn't. now, it is interesting that the reason why that is because this slowdown has been caused by a contraction in domestic demand but also the us trade was really kicking in and having an impact on chinese exports but some economists think that funnily enough the trade war has actually helped the chinese economy at least in the long run because policymakers here have been trying to, for years, step down people's expectations in terms of what an appropriate level is for china. in years gone by, it was fuelled by this debt explosion and thatis fuelled by this debt explosion and that is debt that can't be repaid often so the trade war, the view is that it has imposed a bit of discipline on the chinese economy. now, the government he doesn't want the steam to come out of the economy to quickly so they have put some

money into infrastructure and also given more funding to the banks to provide more loans. the crucial question is, whether those loans go, if they're going to go to where these vanity projects in small cities which don't generate much in terms of economic development, then thatis terms of economic development, then that is no good but if they go towards these new drivers of the chinese economy, the new tech companies, the new service economy, thatis companies, the new service economy, that is the direction the chinese economy want to take this place in any way and for that reason you are not seeing much panic on the markets, may be people also think that the us china trade war is improving anyway so for that matter the chinese economy will be better in the near future. the actor derek fowlds has died at the age of 82. but there are lots of things people wa nt but there are lots of things people want you to do and things...

he appeared in numerous television programmes, but one of his most famous roles was as the hapless bernard woolley in the bbc political satire "yes minister" and it's sequel "yes prime minister". he became well known after he played ‘mr derek‘ in the basil brush show forfour years. he also starred in the itv police drama heartbeat from 1992 to 2010. his family said he died in hospital in bath after suffering complications following pneumonia. three brothers from scotland have set three world records by rowing across the atlantic ocean in thirty—five days. here's the moment they arrived in antigua, playing the bagpipes. jamie, ewan and lachlan maclean are the first three brothers to row any ocean,

the youngest trio to ever row the atlantic, and the fastest trio to row the atlantic. they set off from la gomera, in the canary islands on 12 december and have now completed the 3,000—mile trip to antigua. the maclean brothers had to row the last 20 days without any music, podcasts or audiobooks, as their iphone cables succumbed to damage caused by a combination of sun and seawater. but being musicians, they kept themselves entertained with a bagpipe, harmonica and ukelele on board. a horse wandering along a busy road in cardiff has been rescued after passers—by decided to put him on a bus. the animal was spotted in the central reservation of a busy a road and drivers and the police

struggled to work out how to lead it to safety. so, a bus driver gave it a lift to a park and ride stop to be reunited with its owner. now it's time for a look at the weather with helen. the showers have been producing some snow over the hills in snowdonia. it is colder air which has filtered its wa ke is colder air which has filtered its wake bright across the uk. this little window of clear air in between is a high pressure ridge which will become, i think, the focus for the uk's weather ever not just the weekend but the next four or five days. we just the weekend but the next four orfive days. we have not just the weekend but the next four or five days. we have not seen this length of dry spell since the middle of september and only a week where the front to come in and bring us a spattering of rain. today is still a day of transition and plenty of showers and significant amounts of rainfall from the showers, notjust rainfall from the showers, notjust rain but the snow as well. relatively modest hills, there could be some from the brecon beacons and

the moors as well. there could be chance of hail and thunder, gusty winds making it feel chilly but at least a little bit of sunshine to enjoy in between for under the starry skies over night, as the showers diminish away from the north of scotla nd showers diminish away from the north of scotland but they were oppressively tense know at similar levels as well but elsewhere under the starry skies, the ingredients are there with lighter winds for a widespread frost. last night we had frost in northern ireland, much more widespread issue overnight, tonight, -3 widespread issue overnight, tonight, —3 4; widespread issue overnight, tonight, —3 —4 and given that we will have had showers quite late in the day it does mean there could be some ice issues on untreated roads and pavements so that is to watch out for through the night and first thing on saturday. saturday looks much drier. yes, we will still have some wintry showers, the key north—west wind for the far north of scotland. this threatens some cloud to cornwall and the channel islands but for most of us it is dry. there will be plenty of sunshine around in temperatures will get around seven or eight so not as high as they have been at this week but with light winds and sunshine, pleasant enough

and actually about average for mid—january. then tomorrow night we lose the shower risk in the north are so less cloud and breeze means the frost was set in a more quickly and it will be harsher by morning, -5 -6 and it will be harsher by morning, —5 —6 in rural parts with most of our towns or cities around freezing or below so ice issue potentially because of the moisture we have had around and also perhaps some mist and fog but otherwise, bar a little bit of cloud for these guys of the northern and western isles and highlands, a bit more sunshine to enjoy and we will pick up a bit more fog through the coming nights. goodbye.

glasgow aims to lead the fight against climate change, the city wants to become carbon neutral in the next ten years. i ,it , it comes amid fresh warnings about global warming with the last decade the hottest on record. carbon neutral by 2030 is a big challenge, it's certainly one that we're taking very seriously, and it's not enough for a few people in the council to be working on it. it's a challenge that everybody has to take part in, that we need to get everybody across the city engaged with, and that we need to be working on now. and as one of the world's biggest companies, microsoft, promises to remove all the carbon it has created since 1975, we look at how that ambition can be achieved. also this
