but if i cooked it properly it would be an eight. marcus is very much this kind of wanting to learn life skills and new things to put together for him personally, but then, look, we can share that, so it helps so many children learn a life skill, which is cooking. you're going to start putting these recipes out online, aren't you, but also in supermarkets. why was that important? a lot of people that we are trying to reach, they don't have access to things like social media and stuff like that, so the smartest way to do it was to make sure that they are in local supermarkets that people go to every day. we just wanted to make sure we are hitting as many people and the right people as possible. sally nugent reporting. time for a look at the weather. here's nick miller.

a stunning day has followed the frost. you don't get to see this can often, the satellite picture this morning, barely a cloud in the sky, just a few areas of cloud drifting across northern parts of scotland. you will not be surprised to learn that it's all down to an area of high pressure right across is keeping us settled and dry through the weekend. this afternoon's weather, the areas of cloud in northern scotland may squeeze out a shower in shetland, but for most as we've seen on the satellite picture, it's sunny, just a little hazy in some spots. the winds for the most part are light but a stiff easterly through the english channel and channel islands into south—west england, some exposed coasts staying cool but for most of us it's warm out there, 16—17 c, still chilly in the northern isles. as for hay fever, you know you are suffering, tree pollen, moderate to high, even the moderates are turning high

tomorrow. it's moderate to high uv as well, strong april sunshine regardless of if you are in a breeze or not. tonight, an isolated shower, still quite windy through the english channel into south—west england and another frost on the way for many, perhaps not as cold as last night but still some blue showing up, it could be coldest and eastern parts of england, down to “4 in a few spots. a meteor shower peaks last night, one of our weather watchers got a view here but there could be something to be seen tonight as well under those clear skies will stop tomorrow, if this looks pretty much like what we are seeing today, you will not go far wrong. it'sjust seeing today, you will not go far wrong. it's just about a repeat. some cloud in the north—east of scotland and northern isles may see a passing shower. windy through the english channel and some adjacent coasts, but it's warmer tomorrow and we could see a 20, it will be the first time this month away from the channel islands we've seen that, but it still chilly in the northern isles with a bit more cloud around into friday evening but for most an

alfresco friday evening, sunshine until sunset. alfresco friday evening, sunshine untilsunset. high alfresco friday evening, sunshine until sunset. high pressure a little further in the north until the weekend allowing a more eastern breeds to come our way. it will gradually turn cooler over the weekend, west is best for sunshine and for warmth but there will be a gradual increase in cloud as well especially across eastern areas. this is where you will notice the breeze and temperatures coming down but we are all staying dry. a reminder of our top story. president biden is hosting a virtual climate summit with a pledge to halve american�*s greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 compared with 2005 levels. that's all from the bbc news at one. it's goodbye from me. 0n bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are. hello, i'mjane dougall with your latest sports news. the arsenal manager mikel arteta has confirmed that both the owner

stan kroneke and ceo of the club vinai venkatesham have apologised to him over the failed bid tojoin the european super league. it comes as the premier league said it would be writing to the senior executives from the six english clubs, asking them to stand down from various league working groups, or face being voted out by the newly empowered other 14. arteta says this is a warning to owners that fans must never be forgotten. this has given a big lesson and shows the importance of football in the world and shows that the soul of the world and shows that the soul of the sport belongs to the fans and thatis the sport belongs to the fans and that is it. during this pandemic for a year, we've been trying to sustain this industry with no fans in the stadium but when the fans have to come out and talk, they have done so really loud and clear and they sent probably the strongest message that has ever been said in the football

world, and every club has done the right thing so that's a massive statement for the history of football. manchester united have confirmed that a group of protesters were able to access the club's training ground, before manager 0le gunner solskjaer spoke to them and they left the site. they were protesting the club's owners the glazers and their involvement in the european super league. meanwhile, the global athlete group has called the international olympic committee "archaic" after they pledged to enforce a rule which blocks athletes from taking part in political protest. protests such as taking a knee will still be banned at this year's olympic games. the ioc consulted more than 3,500 athletes. 67% of whom said they wanted to keep the olympic podium free of protests, while 70% were keen to avoid on—field demonstrations. poppy cleall will start at number eight for england women's six nations final against france on saturday, pushing captain sarah hunter to the bench. cleall was hailed by the england head coach as one

of the best players in the world after her performance in the red roses win over scotland on the third of april. hunter has been struggling with a neck injury and emily scarratt will replace her as captain. former british and irish lions captain sam warburton has backed england forward maro itoje to lead the side against south africa this summer. coach warren gatland has various leadership candidates to choose from, including wales captain alun wynjones, but the man who led the last two lions tours believes the england man is best placed. he is one of the players who will be guaranteed to test, and i was extremely impressed with him so i think given his age, a lot of captaincy candidates are older and you question if it would be too much pressure to get through. i've gone back and forth with him and alan who

will captain games on tour, but i'd probably go with him. don't forget the world snooker champioship continues at the crucible this afternoon. ronnie o'sullivan is in second round action against anthony mcgill. that's live on bbc two and the bbc sport website and app. sean murphy against mark davis concludes to a finish good afternoon. you are watching bbc news. i'mjane hill to good afternoon. you are watching bbc news. i'm jane hill to take you through the next few hours. we will be covering coronavirus but there is a lot of talk about the climate because president biden has kick—started that two—day virtual summit about climate change. let's listen just now to what boris johnson has had to say. the president was absolutely right to stress that and i want to leave you with the thought that we can

build back better from this you with the thought that we can build back betterfrom this pandemic by building back greener and don't forget that the uk has been able to cut our own co2 emissions by about 42% on i990 cut our own co2 emissions by about 42% on 1990 levels and we've seen our economy grow by 73%. you can do both at once. let's work together, in glasgow in november, armed with ambitious targets and the plans required to meet them. and let's use this extraordinary moment and the incredible technology that we are working on to make this decade the moment of decisive change in the fight against climate change, and

let's do it together. thank you very much. ., ~ let's do it together. thank you very much. . ~ ,, let's do it together. thank you very much. ., ~' ,, , let's do it together. thank you very much. . ~ ,, , . let's do it together. thank you very much. ., ~' , . ~ much. thank you very much, mr prime minister. much. thank you very much, mr prime minister- and — much. thank you very much, mr prime minister. and now— much. thank you very much, mr prime minister. and now the _ much. thank you very much, mr prime minister. and now the prime _ much. thank you very much, mr prime minister. and now the prime minister. minister. and now the prime minister ofjapan _ studio: that gives you a flavour of the way this virtual summit is operating. 42 world leaders taking part and that bold pledge from president biden from the us administration starting all of this. i think we can hear a little of what president biden has been saying. i like to build, i want to build a critical infrastructure to produce and deploy clean technology, both of those we can harness today and those we will invent tomorrow. i talked to the experts and i see the potential for a more prosperous and equitable future. the signs are unmistakable. the science is undeniable. the cost of inaction keeps mounting. the united states is in waiting. we are

resolving to take action, not only our federal government but our cities and states all across our country. small businesses, large businesses, large corporations. american workers in every field. i see an opportunity to create millions of good paying middle class unionjobs. i see line millions of good paying middle class union jobs. i see line workers laying thousands of miles of transmission lines for a clean, modern, resilient grade. i see workers capping thousands of oil and gas wells that need to be cleaned up and abandoned coal mines that need to be reclaimed, putting a stop to the messing weeks and protecting the health of our communities —— a stop to the methane leaks. electric vehicles, electricians installing nationwide over 500,000 charging stations along our highways. i see engineers and construction workers

building a new carbon capture and green hydrogen plants to forge cleaner steel and cement and produce cleaner steel and cement and produce clean power. i see farmers deploying cutting—edge tools to make soil of our heartland, the next frontier in carbon innovation. by maintaining those investments and putting these people to work, the united states sets out on the road to cut greenhouse gases in half by the end of this decade. that is where we are headed as a nation. and that is what we can do if we take action to build an economy that is not only more prosperous, but healthier, fair cleanerfor prosperous, but healthier, fair cleaner for the entire planet. prosperous, but healthier, fair cleanerfor the entire planet. these steps will set america on a path of net zero emissions to the economy by no later than 2050 but the truth is, america represents less than 15% of the world's emissions. no nation can

solve this crisis on our own, as i know you all fully understand. all of us, particularly those of us who represent the world's largest economies, we have to step up. those that take action and make bold investments of their people and clean energy future will wind the good jobs of tomorrow and make their economies more resilient and competitive. so let's run that race. when more sustainable —— win a more sustainable future, overcome the existential crisis of our time. we know how critically important that is because science tells us that this is the decisive decade. this is the decade we must make decisions that will avoid the worst consequences of the climate crisis. we must try to keep the earth's temperature to an increase of 1.5 celsius. the world beyond 1.5

celsius. the world beyond 1.5 celsius means more frequent and intense fires, floods, droughts, heat waves and hurricanes, tearing through communities, ripping away lives and livelihoods, increasingly dire impacts for public health. it's undeniable. the idea of accelerating and punishing the reality that will come if we don't move, we can't resign ourselves to that future. we have to take action, all of us, and this summit is our first step on the road we will travel together, god willing all of us, to and through glasgow this november at the united climate change conference. to set our world on a path to secure, and sustainable future. the health of the community throughout the world depends on it. the well—being of workers depends on it. the strength of our economies depends on it. countries that take decisive action

now create the industries of the future will be the ones to reap the economic benefits of the clean energy boom that is coming. we are here at this summit to discuss how each of us, each country, can set higher climate ambitions that will in turn create good paying jobs, advanced innovative technologies and help vulnerable countries adapt to climate impacts. we have to move quickly to meet these challenges. the steps our countries take between now and glasgow will set the world up now and glasgow will set the world up for success to protect livelihoods around the world and keep global warming at a maximum of 1.5 celsius. we must get on the path now in order to do that. if we do, we will breathe easier, literally and figuratively. we will create good jobs here at home for millions of americans and lay a strong foundation of growth for the future.

and that can be your goal as well. this is a moral imperative. an economic imperative. a moment of peril but also of extraordinary possibilities. time is short, but i believe we can do this and i believe that we will do this. president biden starting that two—day virtual summit, and you will know that america has made much of the fact that china is part of this two—day summit and the us and china are the world's biggest polluters. china's president has been speaking in the last hour about what needs to be done. translation: irate in the last hour about what needs to be done. translation:— in the last hour about what needs to be done. translation: we must be committed to — be done. translation: we must be committed to harmony _ be done. translation: we must be committed to harmony between - be done. translation: we must be committed to harmony between man j be done. translation: we must be - committed to harmony between man and nature. all things that grow live in harmony and benefit from the nourishment of nature. mother nature has nourished as and we must treat nature as our root. respected,

protected and follow it. we should protected and follow it. we should protect nature and preserve the environment like we protect our eyes. second, we must be committed to green development. green mountain are gold mountains. to protect the environment is to protect productivity and to improve the environment is to boost productivity. the truth is as simple as that. we need to make sure that a sound environment is there to buttress sustainable development worldwide, economic and social. it must be committed to systemic governance. mountains, rivers, forests as well as farmlands, lakes, grassland and deserts all make indivisible parts of the ecosystem. we need to balance all aspects of nature and maintain overall balance in the ecosystem. we must be

committed to a people centred approach. the environment concerns the well—being of people in all countries. we need to take into full account, people's longing for a better life and a good environment as well as our responsibility for future generations. we need to deliver social equity and justice in the course of green transition and increasepeople's sense of benefit. we must be committed to multilateralism and work on the basis of international law, follow the principle of equity and justice and focus on effective actions. last year was the warmest on record for europe and the last six years were the hottest across the world. that's according to a new report about the state of the climate, released by the european climate service copernicus. well, in a special edition of climate check, bbc weather�*s sarah keith lucas looks

at how the close the planet is to hitting the 1.5c limit in global warming and what increased temperatures mean for our homes, habitats, and weather. hello and welcome to climate check. the world is getting hotter. that's shown clearly on the latest climate stripes. it is also reinforced in the new european state of the climate report from eu climate service copernicus. that's released today to coincide with president biden's summit on climate. the report says that for europe 2020 was the hottest year on record, and globally the past six years have been the warmest ever recorded. evidence of these rising temperatures can be seen across the globe. a warmer world is a wetter world, meaning more flooding from increased rainfall and storm activity and rising sea levels. one of the main causes of sea—level rise is polar ice melt which has been accelerated in recent years by heatwaves.

siberia in 2020 saw temperatures six celsius above average. in these conditions the permafrost thaws too, triggering the release of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. scientists believe these arctic heatwaves are now 600 times more likely due to climate change. in recent years, record high temperatures have been recorded from germany to india, antarctica to japan. extreme heat also creates the hot, dry conditions to fuel wildfires and a record number of these have been seen in australia, california, south america, and again, in the arctic. not only are lives lost and homes and habitats destroyed but the carbon dioxide emitted by these fires adds to the levels of co2 in the atmosphere. and these levels are rising all the time, due to the burning of fossil fuels, involved in our industry, travel and energy consumption. earlier this month we saw the highest weekly level of co2

on record at the mauna loa observatory. 419.28 parts per million. copernicus estimates that if current trends continue, as this graph shows, by 2034 the world will be 1.5 degrees warmer than before the industrial revolution. global leaders meeting at this summit and later at cop26 are being urged to redouble their efforts to stay below this limit. we will talk much more about the climate and how to cut emissions and what this summit might achieve. irate what this summit might achieve. we will talk about that after two o'clock. india has registered around 315,000 new cases of coronavirus in the past 2a hours. the state of maharashtra accounts for about a fifth of all cases. as the second wave batters india, hospitals are running out of oxygen.

the bbc�*s mayuresh konnur reports?from mumbai. the state of maharashtra is recording the highest number of coronavirus cases in india. hospitals are running out of oxygen and some are telling patients to source their own supply. this bbcjournalist went to this with his father. translation: when the hospital ran out of oxygen, i brought two cylinders from a nearby government covid centre. i tried to get to cylinders from the local municipality. we saw a van carrying oxygen cylinders on the road. we asked him to give us some. thankfully, the driver of the van agreed. hospitals also move patients after oxygen supplies run out. but such is the demand, some hospitals are refusing to admit new patients. this doctor is caring

for 27 covid patients. translation: last week was horrible. many patients need more oxygen support because of the new mutated strain of the virus. even a 20—year—old needs support. such a demand was not expected. the government is stunned. i know four or five patients who died because oxygen was not available. the situation at oxygen refilling plants is also critical. this plant in central maharashtra is working around the clock. yet they are not able to meet the demand. translation: in normal times we supply 100 to 150 cylinders every day and the same for industrial purposes. we work six to seven hours,

but now industrial sales are banned and the government is asking us to produce 700 cylinders every day for hospitals. that is a huge task. maharashtra is sourcing supplies from companies and has called on the indian air force to help but the state government can only do so much. as the other states to clear oxygen emergencies, maharashtra is farfrom alone. we will talk more about covid after two o'clock. while many people are turning to ancestry websites to find out more about their family history, for one french man, those answers came as a message in a bottle which had been foating in the atlantic ocean for more than 100 years. inside was a letter written on board the titanic the day before it sank in 1912.

courtney bembridge has the story. a simple letter written by 13—year—old girl, undiscovered for more than 100 years. translation: "i throw this bottle into the seal in the middle of the atlantic. we are due to arrive in new york in a few days. if anyone finds it, let the lefebvre family in lievin know." it is signed by mathilde lefebvre, and dated the 13th of april, 1912. but mathilde never made it to new york. the following day, disaster struck. she was killed along with her mother, three siblings and more than 1,500 others. the ship sunk in the atlantic ocean. the wreckage lies about 600 kilometres south of ca nada's newfoundland. for more than a century, the little bottle drifted in the ocean until it eventually washed up on a beach in the bay of fundy. translation: it was a canadian | family who discovered this bottle while walking around. intrigued by two small rolls inside, the family broke the bottle and found a letter. when the discover was

reported in canadian media, it was the final piece of the puzzle forjacques lefebvre and his wife helena, who had been looking into his family's past. translation: one day | found that| five members of the lefebvre family had died at the same time in 1912, so i called my husband and told him that a catastrophe must have occurred around that time. translation: i immediately thought about the titanic. . now he knows for sure, but he's yet to see the letter penned by his great aunt with his own eyes. it's still in the hands of researchers at the university of quebec. jacques hopes one day it will be on display in a museum. courtney bembridge, bbc news. remarkable. one of those stories thatjust blows remarkable. one of those stories that just blows you remarkable. one of those stories thatjust blows you away. now it's time for a look at the weather with nick miller. another frosty start this morning and there are going to be risks of

further frosty nights coming up. and there are going to be risks of furtherfrosty nights coming up. it seems chilly at night but in the short term it's getting warmer. spectacular views coming in from weather watchers because be chilly start came with clear skies and there is barely a cloud in the sky, plenty of sunshine as we have an area of high pressure across us which is causing settled and continued dry weather into the weekend. exceptions to the sunshine, there may be a little high cloud here and they are turning things just a touch hazy. we are seeing an area of cloud pushing on across northern areas of scotland and there may be a shower in shetland but most of the winds are light but it's quite windy across the far southwest of england. through the english channel is a gusty, easterly wind but there is warmth and the strong april sunshine. 16 or 17 celsius in warm spots away from the cost. moderate pollen levels so hay fever sufferers are having a tough time

with tree pollen. into tomorrow, some areas of cloud into scotland in the northern isles. breezy in the far southwest and the channel, both areas avoiding a frost, but not quite as cold as last night, but there will be another frost on the way. the meteor shower peaks last night and one watcher got to see it, but there is probably still some to be seen under clear skies tonight. a chilly start tomorrow but plenty of sunshine to come during the day. a bit hazy in places but there will be warmth and that sunshine away from where the wind is blowing into the coast and warm air tomorrow, 19, may be 20 celsius being reached tomorrow. if you are planning to be alfresco on friday evening, it continues to be fine until sunset with the strong sunshine. high pressure moving further to the north away from us over the weekend but that will bring in a stronger easterly wind across eastern and southern parts and it continues to

be dry. a steady increase in cloud, particularly in the east, where we will notice temperatures coming down particularly along the coast.

this is bbc news. the headlines: president biden hosts a virtual climate summit with world leaders and pledges to cut america's carbon emissions by at least half. we are here at the summit to discuss how each of us, each country can set higher climate ambitions that will in turn create good paying jobs, advance innovative technologies, and help vulnerable countries adapt to climate impacts. china's president xijinping reiterates his promise to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 and says he looks forward to working with the international community, including the united states. the government has apologised for the failure to properly commemorate black and asian soldiers who died fighting for britain.
