this is bbc news, i'm christian fraser in cornwall, where queen elizabeth has been hosting a lavish reception for world leaders attending the g7 summit. the venue: the eden project which houses the world's largest indoor rainforest, on the agenda: climate change. earlier prime minister borisjohnson welcomed leaders to first in—person talks for nearly two years, with the focus firmly on the coronavirus pandemic. we need to make sure that the lessons from the pandemic ensured that we don't repeat some of the errors that we doubtlessly made. i'm kasia madera in london —

also on the programme... the wait is over for football fans, the euro 2020 football tournament begins, with italy playing turkey, we'll be live in rome. hello a warm welcome to falmouth in south—west england — just along the coast from the eden project, where leaders of the g7 countries have been attending a lavish reception with queen elizabeth to highlight the need to tackle climate change. the eden project consists of a series of bio—domes housing the world's largest indoor rainforest. the queen wasjoined at an open—air reception there by prince charles, camilla the duchess of cornwall and prince william and catherine —

the duchess of cambridge — three generations of the royal family. earlier, opening the g7 summit at carbis bay, the prime minister borisjohnson predicted that the world's leading economies would bounce back from the coronavirus crisis but also urged his counterparts to learn from the mistakes of the pandemic. and speaking at the start of the first in—person meeting for nearly two years, mrjohnson stressed the importance of ensuring that the recovery helped all parts of society. we start our coverage — with this report from our political editor laura kuenssberg: getting to this beautiful and remote part of the country isn't easy. they've come from five continents to cornwall. the winding last mile of the journey of the most powerful leaders in the world ended on the beach. thejohnsons, the british receiving line. coronavirus kept prime ministers and presidents and millions of us apart, but now the prime minister wants them to pull together,

with a huge vow for a billion vaccines, so the world can gather again. official hellos done, time for vital talks behind closed doors. thank you all very much for coming. it is genuinely wonderful to see everybody in person. we're building back better together, and building back greener, and building back fairer, and building back more equal and, how shall i... in a more gender—neutral and perhaps a more feminine way, how about that? a reference to getting more girls into classrooms in developing countries. make the world a better place. that's the g7 theory, at least. the first lady and the duchess of cambridge descended on the four and five—year—olds of connor downs academy in hayle today. unusually, the royal family part of this week's big political push. and downing street reckons they've

sailed over the first big hurdle — rebooting the so—called special relationship between the united states and the uk, with a new name for a new chapter too. so, it's a relationship, we call it the deep and meaningful relationship, whatever you... the indestructible relationship. it's a relationship that has endured for a very long time and has been an important part of peace and prosperity, both in europe and around the world. and when it comes to the vaccine, you're making a huge promise about 100 million, but in the next few weeks, the uk's only sending 5 million. you could already have sent vaccines to developing countries, that hasn't happened. isn't there a danger that you're talking big, you're making big promises but, actually, then you deliver something else? with great respect, laura, i think that the people of this country should be very proud that of the 1.5 billion doses that are being distributed around the world, to the poorest and neediest in the world, one in three come from

the oxford—astrazeneca deal that the uk did. yes, we're putting in 5 million doses by september, but we'll do 100 million before 12 months is out. that's a huge number of extra doses. i think people do understand that. they also understand that the uk is spending £10 billion on overseas aid. yes, it is still a lot of money, but you are cutting it. and you're notjust cutting it, you're going back on something that was in the conservative party manifesto that you promised the public we'd do. and i think people will understand that there is a pandemic, which could not have been foreseen at the time we made that commitment to 0.7 throughout this parliament. that's one of the objections from outside. there are a few small, but noisy, bands of protesters who've made it to the fringes of the summit. and trouble looms on a different front too.

the uk is not at the eu table any more, but the others still huddled together. with intense tension over how brexit�*s affected northern ireland, plotting, perhaps, how to take on borisjohnson on that tomorrow. that's a side bar to the main business, though. a commitment to big democracies working together. the multilateralism, the german chancellor says, that's gone missing in recent years. the final agreements on sunday may fall short of borisjohnson�*s ambition, but the summit itself is a symbol to show these leaders want to stand together. laura kuenssberg, bbc news. let me show you once again the photograph of the g7 leaders. it's incredible to think that over 70 years of her reign she has met every american president with the

exception of lyndonjohnson and very much a part of brand britain, all of these leaders who ever they are always enjoyed being the presence of the queen because she follows the arc of history. and they know that she has been here before, she knows many of the issues because she has been briefed as well. she knows one of the intelligence and to be involved day today in the policy but knows exactly what is going on. i can tell you this evening there was one amusing point of the queen taking her seats there, asked the photographer whether there was supposed to be having fun, which was no comment on the people she was archly sitting with and really asking whether she was supposed to be smiling at the camera rather than being serious. but probably undergoing herfair share of summits over the years. at this one according to borisjohnson, one of the most important for some time. mariana mazzucato is a professor in the economics of innovation and public value at university college london. shejoins me now.

she must be the only italian tonight not watching the football in rome with the european chevy shifts under way. very good to have you with us. i have a whole other room there was children yelling for italy. i’m i have a whole other room there was children yelling for italy.— children yelling for italy. i'm sure ou do! i children yelling for italy. i'm sure you do! i know— children yelling for italy. i'm sure you do! i knowjust _ children yelling for italy. i'm sure you do! i knowjust what - children yelling for italy. i'm sure you do! i knowjust what it's - children yelling for italy. i'm sure you do! i knowjust what it's like l you do! i knowjust what it's like when the football is on in rome. borisjohnson made quite an interesting point today, he said the leader should i make the wrist mistakes that were there after the last financial crisis. in 2008 or nine, and i suppose from an italian perspective you would endorse that point, wouldn't you? fitter perspective you would endorse that point, wouldn't you?— point, wouldn't you? after the financial crisis _ point, wouldn't you? after the financial crisis the _ point, wouldn't you? after the j financial crisis the government point, wouldn't you? after the - financial crisis the government did step in for this is nothing new that the government step again now with the government step again now with the covid crisis but we ended up simply trying to save the global capitalist system without fundamentally reforming it. much of the liquidity that was injected into

the liquidity that was injected into the system ended up back inside the financial sector. as of this idea of building back better, something president biden and uss all the time we need to transform it away from being a slug into a really concrete investment and trade practical concrete set of steps and that's the opportunity that we have in front of us. ~ . , ., ., , us. we have seen in all of these eumpean _ us. we have seen in all of these european countries _ us. we have seen in all of these european countries that - us. we have seen in all of these european countries that when i us. we have seen in all of these - european countries that when poverty becomes entrenched and when the economy becomes entrenched —— could happen again proving the levels of debt we have all grown up, that has a repercussion on the political scene. rememberthe a repercussion on the political scene. remember the reason the crisis is as severe as it is as we have not been investing in global health systems. had have not been investing in global health systems.— have not been investing in global healths stems. . . , , , health systems. had the crisis begun in africa and — health systems. had the crisis begun in africa and not _ health systems. had the crisis begun in africa and not china _ health systems. had the crisis begun in africa and not china where - health systems. had the crisis begun in africa and not china where healthl in africa and not china where health systems are much weaker we would globally be worse off, so i think the idea of a g7 and don't forget

also eg 20 which italy will be hosting in the autumn, also cop 26, is to find collective solutions and using the common good principles instead of a race to the bottom principle that we have also had with the washington consensus. i've been part of a panel in the uk, it was representing italy where we formulated what we call the cornwall consensus which hopefully will replace the washington consensus very much based on the need to shape and could create a very different type of economy which is led by ideas of having an inclusive and sustainable and notjust recovery but global economic system. that means changing what to mentally how we do things, how we do capitalism. there's quite a positive story that should be told more which is that the recovery programme at the european level is conditional not on austerity but what we softly financial crisis where help to

countries was conditional on them reducing the public budgets but this time conditional on having an investment strategy around climate change and digitalisation, and also strengthening global health systems. the setting is a good one, but the problem is that the member state level if the structures or not they are coming we don't have a dynamic public ministration and don't have the kinds of institutions that foster science in linkages and so on, then all of this recovery actually ends on a weak system and again this is the opportunity for g7 and she 20s to say what is the resilience that we need and the real economy and the financial system but also civil society organisations in order to work together to formulate a very different type of economy so we stopped just patching things up and fixing market failures as economists like to call it. it actually create a fundamentally different type of economy. that's all well and _ different type of economy. that's all well and good _ different type of economy. that's all well and good but _ different type of economy. that's all well and good but it _ different type of economy. that's all well and good but it has - different type of economy. that's all well and good but it has to - different type of economy. that's

all well and good but it has to be | all well and good but it has to be something that these governments can sell to their respective electorates, and the trouble with the way capitalism is set up right now is it's all predicated on growth. and, you know, oil kicks in an awful lot international economies for instance and while we are setting these growth targets, is it possible to meet the current climate change targets that we are setting simultaneously? yes change targets that we are setting simultaneously?— change targets that we are setting simultaneousl ? , , , simultaneously? yes because we need to see climate — simultaneously? yes because we need to see climate change _ simultaneously? yes because we need to see climate change as _ simultaneously? yes because we need to see climate change as an _ to see climate change as an opportunity for investment and innovation. that will increase productivity in the long run, that will formulate all sorts of newjobs in sectors and skills but it doesn't happen on its own. for example the labour unions, there's also an lh, there's a b aid for businesses. labour unions for a just transition to make sure that as we transition to make sure that as we transition to a greener economy which greta thunberg was saying about what she was 16 was saying that we have to do like when your house is on fire you don't debate what to do, you get

out. we need to get out of this climate change problem quickly as the report told us ten years ago. in 2019 that willie had ten years left. so the pace does matter and we need to turn it into an opportunity. the cost of not acting is much higher than the cost of actually doing the right thing right now. it should not be seen as something thatjust individual countries do. that's the benefit of having a g7 and g20 which is the collective agenda, and the vaccine we know it's not good enough to have a vaccine if we don't collectively make sure that everybody globally is vaccinated, and that's just an example go and eat the same kind of idea around climate and sustainable development goals which we have 17 goals, how do we approach them together? thank you very much. interesting conversation just before i let you go i will bring you good news, italy havejust scored. so how about that? i will let you go and enjoy it. thank you

for being with us. britain's prince charles, who has long campaigned for environmental causes, will talk to business leaders at the g7 summit on how the sector can help tackle climate change. here he addressing world leaders at the eden project a short while ago. the fight against this terrible pandemic provides, if everyone was needed, a example of the scale and sheer speed at which the global community can tackle crises when we combine political will with business ingenuity and public mobilisation. ladies and gentlemen, we are doing it for the pandemic, so if you don't mind me saying so, we must also do it for the planet. what about that political will? jonathan wilkinson

is canada's minister of environment and climate change. hejoins me now. thank you very much for coming on the programme. i'mjust thank you very much for coming on the programme. i'm just looking here at yourfigures, canada is the programme. i'm just looking here at your figures, canada is to commit to a 30 to 45% cut in emissions by 2030. how are you going to do that given the prominence of the oil industry in canada? the given the prominence of the oil industry in canada? the number is 40 to 4596 so an — industry in canada? the number is 40 to 4596 so an ambitious _ industry in canada? the number is 40 to 4596 so an ambitious target, - to 45% so an ambitious target, there's no question about that. particularly given the size of the oil and gas sector in this country. we have taken an approach which is to focus on all of the sectors and looking at ways in which we can reduce emissions, certainly with respect to oil and gas, enormous opportunities to reduce emissions whether that's the use of hydrogen or carbon capture or a range of other things as we move towards the net zero future by 2050 that we need to. ~ . net zero future by 2050 that we need to. . ., . ., . , net zero future by 2050 that we need to. ., . ,, net zero future by 2050 that we need to. ., , to. what concerns people when they look at candidate _ to. what concerns people when they look at candidate as _ to. what concerns people when they look at candidate as you _ to. what concerns people when they look at candidate as you are - to. what concerns people when they look at candidate as you are putting| look at candidate as you are putting a lot of new money into pipelines.

the amount of oil produced in alberta is projected to double by 2030, and now we get news in the last few weeks that line five as it is called, the new pipeline is being put art of the largest source of freshwater. and that's the great lakes. you are promising things on climate change and yet we see very different things back home in canada. . �* , different things back home in canada. ., �*, ., , ., canada. that's actually not true. if ou look canada. that's actually not true. if you look at — canada. that's actually not true. if you look at the _ canada. that's actually not true. if you look at the climate _ canada. that's actually not true. if you look at the climate plan - canada. that's actually not true. if you look at the climate plan is - you look at the climate plan is government has put into place, perhaps the most detailed one in the world, i would perhaps the most detailed one in the world, iwould put perhaps the most detailed one in the world, i would put up against the climate plants in your country pretty much any day. and it certainly is focused on ensuring that we are reducing emissions in every sector, not simply oil and gas but industrial sectors, the transportation sector and we are working closely with american friends working closely with the united kingdom and our european partners to ensure that we are all making progress in the progress we need to make to ensure that we achieve the targets we must commit

families in four kids as they grow. this is a science issue and our approach has to be driven by science which is the world must achieve the net zero target and we have to the pathways that are will work most effectively flee for canada document that may be different for the united kingdom or germany but after i arrive at the same end goal. it’s arrive at the same end goal. it's aood of arrive at the same end goal. it's good of you _ arrive at the same end goal. it's good of you to join arrive at the same end goal. it's good of you tojoin us, thank you good of you to join us, thank you for coming on the programme. still waiting for pictures on that dinner this evening, and of course all attention will focus to the events tomorrow. first up very important bilateral meetings between portion of the in the european leaders. the focus very much on climate change and the pandemic recovery there's that domestic issue here of northern ireland and the way that trade moves between northern ireland and great britain and what the uk is signed up to in the brexit

trade agreement. it's overhanging the entire summer and the bilateral discussions that will take place tomorrow morning, very important to both sides. we will see whether it overshadows the rest of the summit andindeed overshadows the rest of the summit and indeed whether anything comes of those meetings. i will hand you back now. euro 2020 kicked off with a spectacular opening ceremony, italy has scored the first goal. we had that spectacular opening ceremony a little bit earlier to open this tournament. a year after being postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic. it's going to be a a unique tournament. earlier the president of the european football federation, alexander cerefin, appraled for competing teams to adapt to a special situation. right now italy are playing turkey in the stadio 0lympico in rome. i'm joined now by our correspondent in rome, mark lowen.

we were wondering whether we would hear a goal when you were alive in the first half, but that itjust now and she may miss to put up at the reaction amongst the fans watching outside was immense. i’m reaction amongst the fans watching outside was immense.— outside was immense. i'm quickly realisina outside was immense. i'm quickly realising an _ outside was immense. i'm quickly realising an essential— outside was immense. i'm quickly realising an essential skill - outside was immense. i'm quickly realising an essential skill for- outside was immense. i'm quickly realising an essential skill for tv | realising an essential skill for tv reporters outside football stadium which is to be able to judge who has scored according to the decibels of the cheer. and i was not, exactly sure so grateful to an italian colleague of mine from the reuters news agency who was dancing around so i could tell that italy definitely had scored. an own goal ljy definitely had scored. an own goal by turkey but i thinkjudging by the first half clearly it was deserved for italy, italy dominating the match. real excitement among the italians of the first game is playing here to a home crowd and this is the first country in europe that was devastated by the coronavirus pandemic and of the first to be hosting a euro 2020 game

and that in itself a sign clearly of how far italy has come since the darkest days of the pandemic last year. a sense among the 16,000 spectators in the stadium 25% capacity of realjoy and relief at being able to come back into a stadium and watch international football again. we saw turks, italians earlier dancing and singing and there was a sense of fraternity among them at being able to come back into a stadium. had to see whether or not the italians or turks have the biggest smiles at the end of the second half. we have the biggest smiles at the end of the second half.— of the second half. we are hearing at the unique _ of the second half. we are hearing at the unique tournament - of the second half. we are hearing at the unique tournament and - of the second half. we are hearing at the unique tournament and so l of the second half. we are hearing - at the unique tournament and so much preparation, postponed for a year and a lot of concern due to the pandemic. how have the preparations been going and what's the reaction been going and what's the reaction been like there? the been going and what's the reaction been like there?— been like there? the restrictions are still very _ been like there? the restrictions are still very tight _ been like there? the restrictions are still very tight for _ been like there? the restrictions are still very tight for those - been like there? the restrictions| are still very tight for those going inside the stadium. the after show either a proof of a negative covid

test or a vaccination to be able to go in and they're wearing masks inside, they are having to stick to their assigned seat and actually even times in which they could start to enter the stadium. they're taking it very seriously here come the italians have taken the whole thing very seriously since the start of the pandemic because they were frightened into obedience really in this country. by being the first in europe to be overwhelmed by covid. as for the wider population, they say that some were unaware rome was one of the hosts but the excitement is starting to build and it comes —— if italy comes with victory it will build in the days ahead. live coverage of course on our website as well. some of the world's most famous architects have designed the summer pavilion at london's serpentine gallery over the years. the gallery commissions experimental work by a team that's never constructed a building in england.

and today, the latest version has opened. it was created by the south african architect sumayya vally and her practice, counterspace. rhodri davies went to meet her. from johannesburg, to london's hyde park. this year's pavilion at the renowned serpentine gallery has its building blocks in south africa. my practice has always been actively interested in finding ways for us to express, in design form, what being injohannesburg and what being in africa means, really. and so i think when i came to london i was really interested in being able to read the city beneath the surface, and i think that that is something that i am always learning injohannesburg. because there is the city that we are trained to see, but there are so many other cities that exist beneath it. cosmopolitan layers south african architect sumayya vally, and her practice counterspace are showing here for several months. by referencing london's migrant communities. from their markets to mosques,

corner shops to front steps. they become places where people look after each other�*s children, where people come together at different times of the day or on different festivities or holidays. and are really able to use these places, these extensions of home and to find home and ways of belonging in london. a type of community that sumayya wants this work to be a part of. fragments of the pavilion like this are being taken into neighbourhoods in london so that people can interact with them, so the designers wanted the pavilion to both represents the city and go out into it. it's an idea that helped sumayya become, at 31, the youngest winner of the commission.

so far the pavilion would always happen in kensington garden, but sumayya wanted from the very beginning there to be reciprocity, so to exley have elements of her pavilion, you know, smaller pavilions happening in these different neighbourhoods. and that's exactly, i think, the way she has developed the methodology that her practice of working injohannesburg. and that's what really impressed us so much. the idea of listening to the city. and the gallery hopes that a fragment of the pavilion will also make it to south africa to continue the dialogue. while sumayya says designing the pavilion is... deeply inspiring for my generation, for the voices alongside me and for the voices behind me. to know that we have so much to express to the world. so the pavilion itself can give something back. from london's hyde park tojohannesburg. rhodri davies, bbc news, london.

absolutely stunning design there and in the time of that report daily have gotten another goal, mark will be really disappointed. he was hoping to see a goal come through when he was life here on bbc news. thanks for watching, i will be back soon. good evening. there's certainly been a lot more cloud around today, but not for all of us. in fact, further south and east, we did get some sunshine and some warmth. this was hastings a little earlier on. a weather front introduced more cloud generally across the country and a slightly fresher feel behind it as well. now, the cloud didn't produce that much in the way of rain, but certainly it was quite persistent. and at times, many of us had scenes like this. this was leek in staffordshire. good grass—cutting weather, though, it has to be said. now, as we move through this evening, that weather front sinks its way into the south east. we keep some cloud

through the night as well. and because it was a cold front and it's introduced something a little less humid behind, it'll be a much more comfortable night for trying to get a good night's sleep. 0vernight lows between 9—14 degrees. high pressure then builds once again in from the south—west and the wind direction coming from the south—west, so some pretty warm, humid air starts to return as that air source comes all the way up from the azores. so, on saturday, it may well start off quite cloudy, but the sunshine breaks through very quickly indeed. a few isolated showers into the far north of scotland, and maybe a little more cloud into the north west. so, here, 14—17 degrees, but we could see highest values of 24. that's the mid—70s fahrenheit by the middle of the afternoon. it bodes well for day three of the second test at edgbaston. as you can see quite clearly, certainly more sunshine than we've seen today and turning increasingly hot on sunday. now, you can't avoid it, yes, the euros arrive, and wales' first match looks likely, although it's in baku, to be a hot affair as well.

27 degrees is likely with blue sky and sunshine. back close to home now for sunday, a lot of sunshine around on sunday. a weak weather front will bring some cloud and showery rain into the western isles potentially, but 26 degrees not out of the question for aberdeen. 28 degrees is likely into the london area, and that means that for england's opening match against croatia at wembley, it is certainly going to be a hot affair. sunscreen and sun hat at the ready if you're lucky enough to have tickets. the heat looks likely to peak on monday with indications of something a little fresher from tuesday.

this is bbc world news, the headlines... britain's queen elizabeth has been hosting a reception in cornwall for world leaders attending the g7 summit. other members of the royal family are also attending the reception — including prince charles. he spoke to the leaders about his work on climate change. earlier, g7 leaders held talks on the global recovery from the coronavirus pandemic. they are expected to make a pledge to give one billion vaccine doses to poorer countries. a teenage girl who filmed the murder of george floyd has been awarded a special citation in this year's pulitzer prizes. she was recognized for highlighting the role ordinary people have to play in journalists' quest for truth. for football fans, the long wait for euro 2020 is over. after being postponed last year because of the pandemic, italy have kicked off the tournament against turkey in rome.
