hello and welcome. there's a tense standoff in a suburb of the us city of minneapolis, where police in riot gear are confronting protesters angered by the fatal shooting of a black man. the police chief of brooklyn center said 20 year old daunte wright was killed in what he described as an �*accidental discharge�*. an officer intended to use a taser on the suspect but pulled her gun instead. the officer has been named as 26—year—old kim potter. a state of emergency and an overnight curfew have been imposed. our north america correspondent peter bowes reports. another tense night, unrest on the streets of minneapolis in response to the police killing of another black man. this was

wants to see a reduction, even when things get back to normal. it says it's committed to reducing carbon emissions, and the airline industry is a big producer of c02. hence the vote to ban a number of domestic flights, although connecting flights won't be directly affected. either way, some lawmakers remain to be convinced. translation: | think this | method is not the right one. the environmental choice must take precedence, but let's not abandon the social and economic choices around industry and around our ports. the two are complementary. the law still has to be approved by the senate, but assuming it comes into a fact, it will hit all flights that could be made by train in less than 2.5 hours. that will bring an end services between paris and cities like nantes, lyon and bordeaux, but after some objections from airlines and regional officials, longer flights from the capital from places to places like toulouse, marseille and nice will still be allowed.

translation: according | to greenpeace, this change would spare the most polluting of our connections. with more than 3 million passengers in 2019, the flights between paris and nice generate the equivalent of 22,500 tons of carbon dioxide. france has a renowned train network. getting around here is usually pretty painless. it may not be the same for other countries considering a similar scheme. the ministers insist big steps have to be taken if we are serious about climate change. tim allman, bbc news. the japanese government has approved a plan to release into the sea huge amounts of contaminated water from the stricken fukushima nuclear plant, which suffered a meltdown ten years ago. china has called the decision extremely irresponsible, and south korea has expressed strong regret at it. announcing the plan, japan�*s prime minister said safety was his

paramount concern. translation: after constructing the relevant facilities and arrangements to conform to regulations, we will start the release in about two years. the concentration of tritium will be reduced to one 40th of domestic regulation standards, which is one segment of drinking water standards, defined by the world health organization. we take it seriously the people in the region hit by the disaster and in the fishing industry have concerns about damages caused by harmful rumours. the government as a whole will dispel concerns and give thorough explanations. a new report says the wealthiest people in the world must radically change their lifestyles to tackle climate change. researchers from the cambridge sustainability commission want to persuade the wealthy to insulate their homes, reduce their frequent flying and ditch their suv�*s. they say between 1990 and 2015, nearly half of the growth in global emissions was down to the richest 10%.

the wealthiest 5% alone, the so—called "polluter elite", contributed more than a third of emissions growth. and they complain that the world's wealthiest 1% produces double the combined carbon emissions of the poorest 50%. joining me now is dr manisha anantharaman. she was involved in the report and is an associate professor injustice, community and leadership at saint mary's college of california in moraga. good to have you on the programme. just tell us more about this report out today, and how you compiled the data coming up with these conclusions?- coming up with these conclusions? , ., ., conclusions? the report that came out — conclusions? the report that came out today, _ conclusions? the report that came out today, basically i came out today, basically argues that if we want to achieve the paris climate targets and stay within that 1.5 degrees climate change trajectory, we need to change

behaviour, alongside technological innovation and policy changes, so a panel of 31 experts including myself were interviewed by a professor along with his research team at the university of sussex and when you say interventions, what are you thinking? to change the behaviour of the richest 1% of the world, for example?— example? right, so we're thinking _ example? right, so we're thinking of _ example? right, so we're thinking of interventions i example? right, so we're i thinking of interventions all scales, with multiple points of intervention and levels of change, so we're notjust focusing in on individual

on the report online, tell me what you think, carrot or stick? get in touch. in a stark warning the world health organisation, says the coronavirus pandemic is still growing around the globe, and has yet to reach its peak. india now accounts for1 in 6 of all new coronavirus infections globally. it's recorded more than 13 and a half million cases. only the united states has recorded more infections. courtney bembridge reports. just as the second wave of the virus is sweeping across india, millions of people travelled to the northern city of haridwar to mark a hindu religious festival by bathing in the ganges river. translation: we were afraid that we were coming - during covid—19 and nothing should happen to us, but by the grace of the mother goddess ganges, everything is fine here and there are no problems. there is no issue. i think there is no issue travelling to come. they have to take proper care of themselves by wearing masks and maintaining some social distance protocols.

the crowds are so large it is hard to enforce coronavirus restrictions. translation: as you can see we are urging people - to wear their masks and until yesterday there were a lot of fines. but because of the crowd today we are unable to impose fines as it is not practically possible. health experts had appealed for the festival to be cancelled, but the government went ahead. india is recording almost 170,000 new daily cases and health officials are expecting that number to rise. the concern is we don't know how long the wave will last. if it last like the last one for 2.5 months, then we have a problem. these patients were given oxygen outside a hospital because it was too full. less than li% of the population has been vaccinated. prime minister narendra modi wants to see these efforts ramped up but there are reports of vaccine shortages, even with the largest

manufacturer in the world, the serum institute of india, directing most of its supply for domestic use. that will have a knock—on effect for global vaccination efforts too because less doses will be sent overseas. global cases have been rising for seven weeks and the world health organization has warned countries against relaxing restrictions too soon. the trajectory of the pandemic right now is growing exponentially. this is not the situation we want to be in 16 months into a pandemic. the world health organization says the pandemic could be brought under control in a number of months if governments take a consistent and directed approach. stay with us on bbc news, still to come: we take to the waters off cape town with the campaigners trying to preserve an underwater forest.

this is bbc news, our main headline: a state of emergency is declared in the american city of minneapolis as civic leaders call for calm after another black man was killed by police. let's get more on this now: charles coleman is a lawyer and civil rights advocate and joins me now. thank you for being on the programme. just give us your take on this latest development in minneapolis.— in minneapolis. well, what we're seeing _ in minneapolis. well, what we're seeing again - in minneapolis. well, what we're seeing again is - in minneapolis. well, what i we're seeing again is another example of america's toxic police force. we are seeing yet again another black man who has been murdered, shot and killed by police officers who failed to use the requisite amount of force necessary in order to conduct an investigation or to apprehend a suspect. in plain language, we are seeing what is

happening just ten miles away from where this gentleman was killed, in derek chauvin being on trialfor killing killed, in derek chauvin being on trial for killing george floyd. this is not an isolated incident, this is a problem along with america's entire pop toxic police culture. says along with america's entire pop toxic police culture.— toxic police culture. says the death of george _ toxic police culture. says the death of george floyd, - toxic police culture. says the death of george floyd, has l death of george floyd, has there been any change in policing? for example, in minneapolis, the police in this particular case were very quick to explain what had happened, that an accident occurred. that that an accident occurred. at the that an accident occurred. git the end of the day, you can't have change if you don't have accountability. and i think what you have started to see across america is legislatures have begun taken action with respect to ending qualified immunity. for example, herei live in new york city, we were the first city to legislate the abolishment of qualified immunity. we also saw it take place in colorado and also recently in mexico. what that has done is it has created a level of accountability within

police culture that has never before been seen. that in terms of police interaction with people, particularly black americans, no, we have not seen a change in terms of how we are respected, we have not seen a change in terms of how we are treated, nor have we seen a change in how blackness has been weaponised to invoke fear and basically convey a greater threat to police officers in the execution of theirjobs. and in terms of the case itself of derek chauvin, we are in the third week now, your thoughts on how this is going and the impact it will have.- on how this is going and the impact it will have. well, this could not _ impact it will have. well, this could not have _ impact it will have. well, this could not have come - impact it will have. well, this could not have come at - impact it will have. well, this could not have come at a - impact it will have. well, this l could not have come at a worse time for the defence, and at the same time that i say that, there is also the caveat that in some ways it could have been a blessing in disguise to the defence. what i mean by that is, the defence a few weeks ago moved for thejury to is, the defence a few weeks ago moved for the jury to sequester and thejudge denied moved for the jury to sequester and the judge denied that motion. the issue now is with such an explosive incident occurring so close to trial�*s actually being held, if in fact this is found to have any bearing in the minds of those

jurors, then the defence is going to have a serious issue around appeal and potentially moving forward in this trial, i don't think that is outside the realm of possibilities. i do think, however, if thejudge elects to go forward with the case, it is very possible that jurors may have this on their minds during deliberations as yet another example of how american policing does not work the same for black people here in america. the same for black people here in america-— in america. charles coleman, thank you _ in america. charles coleman, thank you for _ in america. charles coleman, thank you for being _ in america. charles coleman, thank you for being on - in america. charles coleman, thank you for being on the . thank you for being on the programme. thank you for being on the programme-— thank you for being on the rouramme. . ., g, programme. thanks for having me. another of the countries hit badly is brazil. the latest daily death toll of nearly 1500 people is down brazilian cases are on the rise. mark lowen sent us this report, from sao paulo. the cloak of darkness brings no respite when brazil's dead keep coming. in latin america's largest graveyard, night shift burials to clear the backlog. the agony of loss deepened by the snatched farewell,

reaching for dignity denied. this is a nation buckling under collective trauma. there's barely time to grieve before the next one arrives. another number in more than 350,000 dead. "my father died this morning," says willians. "he got covid in hospital. i have no words for the pain. other countries are recovering but in brazil is getting worse. if our president had bought vaccines earlier my dad could still be here." with hospitals in most regions 90% full, they're putting beds where they can. an indoor arena, once alive with brazil's passion for sport, now a field hospital for virus victims. this country has become the global epicentre and a super spreader of the variant ravaging the young too. how does it feel to see younger patients here now? it's scary.

wards are now under lio. many deaths in the same family. like, we have a mother, a father and a son, and the son dies and we cannot tell the father and the mother because they can get worse. a public health disaster was once dismissed by president bolsonaro as just a little flu. but this is the reality, as exhausted medics tried to bring comfort to old and young. anderson, just 28, says he almost didn't make it. translation: when they couldn't find my veins any more _ and they had to get access to a major artery and i couldn't breathe, i thought it was the end. i think this is a failure of our government and our president. they should search their conscience and come and visit this hospital. the added tragedy of what is happening here is that it shouldn't

have come to this. for many, it's the worst — a roll call of the fallen to a virus this shattered country could have controlled. mark lowen, bbc news, sao paulo. now, at sunday's bafta awards, the prize for best documentary went to my octopus teacher. the setting was a kelp forest off the coast of cape town — one of the world's richest ecosystems. and now the makers of the film are part of a campaign to preserve the underwater forest. our africa correspondent andrew harding has braved the chilly waters with them,

to see for himself. the sea life here is spectacular. but try for a moment to look past the exotic creatures crowding the cold waters near cape town. and focus instead on the seaweed. the endless underwater forests of kelp. t the endless underwater forests of kel. g the endless underwater forests of kel. ~ , ., of kelp. i think we should check out _ of kelp. i think we should check out the _ of kelp. i think we should check out the caves - of kelp. i think we should check out the caves and l of kelp. i think we should - check out the caves and have a look at the sharks are there... i came here with a group of activists who want to draw the world's attention to this extraordinary but little—known ecosystem. they�* re extraordinary but little—known ecosystem. they're calling it the great african sea forest. we hear so much talk about coral and about the great barrier reef, there are these giant underwater forests, and they are so important, just as important when it comes to climate and climate change. there is a big value in these kelp forest ecosystems. they

protect from storm surges because they break the waves, they prevent coastal erosion, they prevent coastal erosion, they sequester a lot of carbon which is mitigating global climate change was not and then itjust happens... t climate change was not and then itjust happens. . ._ itjust happens... i put my hand out _ itjust happens... i put my hand out a _ itjust happens... i put my hand out a tiny _ itjust happens... i put my hand out a tiny bit... - itjust happens... i put my hand out a tiny bit... it - itjust happens... i put my| hand out a tiny bit... it was here that — hand out a tiny bit... it was here that these _ hand out a tiny bit... it was here that these divers - hand out a tiny bit... it was i here that these divers filmed hand out a tiny bit... it was . here that these divers filmed a documentary, my octopus teacher. it became a global hit. but the kelp is the bigger story stop covering a quarter of the world's coastlines. for now, the kelp in south africa is so plentiful, it can be harvested sustainably, for all sorts of human uses, from fertiliser to face cream. the mineral rich fronds can grow half a metre a day. with these forests, acutely vulnerable to rising sea temperatures, are struggling elsewhere, hence the push to raise public awareness. we thought we have to give it

an identity and the reason for that was because if we want to do any sort of long—term conservation of this ecosystem, we need to make people aware of it first. when you think wild, you think serengeti, great barrier reef, so we want that kind of romanticism and imagination attached to the kelp forest.— imagination attached to the kelp forest. the hope is that by naming — kelp forest. the hope is that by naming this _ kelp forest. the hope is that by naming this the _ kelp forest. the hope is that by naming this the rate - kelp forest. the hope is that i by naming this the rate african sea forest, people pay more attention to this extraordinary ecosystem, that they were guarded and help it continue to play its unique role in protecting our planet. aha, play its unique role in protecting our planet. a fact about them _ protecting our planet. a fact about them is _ protecting our planet. a fact about them is they - protecting our planet. a fact about them is they can - protecting our planet. a fact i about them is they can actually get up to 12—13 metres long. is get up to 12—13 metres long. is part of that process, local children are now being introduced to the kelp, to learn its secrets and to meet the creatures that use these coastal forests as their underwater nursery. andrew harding, bbc news, in south africa's western cape. we have

all the top business stories right here next, i'll see you soon. all eyes on the weather now that lockdown is slowly easing, and it's actually not looking too bad over the next few days. it will remain a little on the chilly side and we are certainly in for a frosty start on tuesday but at least it will be a sunny one. on tuesday there is still a lot of cold air across the continent and we are in that cold air, it's coming in more or less from the arctic and will take a while before things warm up. this is what it looks like early on tuesday. perhaps as low as —8 celsius in the glens of scotland and a frost down to the south coast. but plenty of sunshine around right from the word go, however, clouds will be increasing through the morning

and into the afternoon across some western and southern areas so it's not a completely dry day. we are in fact expecting a few showers. the best of the weather will be across central parts and towards the north sea coasts. temperatures, 10—12 degrees, actually not that far off the average but we'd like them closer to the mid—teens, especially across southern parts of the uk and at least into double figures in most areas. so, the next few days? the weather will remain dry because we have high pressure centred across the uk. in fact, it's notjust across the uk but spreading itself right across western parts of europe. so a lot of dry weather in many areas, and this is what it looks like early on wednesday. starting off a little misty in places, perhaps a touch of frost, but then in the afternoon the weather's looking absolutely fine. maybe a couple of light showers here and there. the temperature nudging into the mid—teens across southern parts of wales, for example. here's a look at thursday.

it does look as though we'll pick up more of a breeze off the north sea here around east anglia and the south east, so the temperatures may drop a little bit. we're only talking nine in norwich and 10 in london so the higher temperatures later in the week will be across more western areas of the uk. now, there is a hint that things are going to be warming up as we head into the weekend. see that cold air being pushed away and that slightly milder atlantic air with the southerly wind sets in across the british isles, but not everywhere. so i do think temperatures will pick up towards the weekend — the best temperatures will be across more western areas. and as you can see from the weather symbols, it is looking generally dry. bye— bye.
