9:00 pm
into northern ireland. as we head into monday, for much of the country it will turn cooler from the north. not so in the south—east. temperatures could make 30 celsius perhaps in the london area. this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. shock at the euros this evening as denmark's christian eriksen collapses on the pitch during their match against finland. uefa have released a statement saying he has been transferred to hospital and stabilised, the match finished with finland leading denmark i—0. at the g7 summit in cornwall — leaders are being asked to commit to the carbis bay declaration — a global health initiative aimed at preventing future pandemics. meanwhile the us president's focus is on forming an alliance of countries to combat the influence of china. uk prime minister borisjohnson says there is a �*lot of misunderstanding' from the eu about northern ireland trade — as tensions over the issue hang over his talks with fellow european leaders.
9:01 pm
hello and welcome if you're watching in the uk or around the world. danish footballer christian eriksen is in a stable condition in hospital after he collapsed on the pitch during his nation's european championship match against finland. the danish football association said he's awake, and is awaiting further tests. the 29—year—old suddenly fell to the ground in front of his home supporters in copenhagen, causing the match to be temporarily suspended. the match resumed after a lengthy break at the request of both teams. nathalie pirks reports. christian eriksen is the talisman of the denmark national team, butjust before half—time, without a player around him, he staggered to the ground and collapsed.
9:02 pm
team—mates immediately recognised how serious it was, forming a protective ring around him as medics rushed onto the pitch. fans could only look on in horror as doctors attempted to resuscitate the midfielder. his team—mates could barely look as they hope to would be ok. the game was rightly postponed. back in the bbc studio, former players were understandably emotional. i think football totally goes out of the window right now, and you are thinking about his family, all the rest of the players that are out there witnessing it as well. i actuallyjust got on my phone — i messaged my mum and told her i love her. and i think it's a reminder of how quickly life can change. the latest update from uefa is that eriksen has been transferred to hospital and has been stabilised. the news from the danish fa that he is awake as the news all football fans wanted to hear. natalie pirks, bbc news. klaus egelund is a danish footballjournalist. he gave us this update from aarhus.
9:03 pm
we know that christian is speaking and has been in touch with his team—mates during the break in the match and he asked them to resume the much, that is what we are hearing at the moment. but this is controlled information obviously at this point, so i think most of the information going around is something that has been circulated widely. christian eriksen is a national hero. he wasjust crowned champion with inter milan. he was crowned footballer of the year. he is our biggest football star since michael laudrup, some 35 years ago, so i think you can say that this is footballing royalty in denmark battling for his life. most of you have probably seen the pictures of the players are shielding him on the pitch. he was stretchered off
9:04 pm
behind white linen, so everybody was very concerned. everybody was really concerned about his well—being. this was definitely the core member of the squad all of a sudden just collapsing to the ground. this has had a huge impact. let's get some other news now and today is the second day of the g7 summit — a meeting of the world's seven largest established advanced economies. world leaders are in cornwall in carbis bay, for face—to—face meetings. they include president biden, who is making his first foreign visit since taking office in the us. christian fraser is there for us. a very good evening from falmouth. day two of the g7 summit, today very much the business end of the summit. six hours of talks between the leaders, with the focus on future, pandemic preparedness,
9:05 pm
security and a particular focus — pushed by the americans — on how to contain and challenge china's growing influence in the developing world. the seven leaders are being asked to commit, to a project borisjohnson has dubbed the carbis bay declaration. it's a series of measures designed to quash future pandemics. so a global surveillance network to identify variants and new viruses that may in future cross from animals into humans, more global capacity for genomic sequencing, more support for the reform of the who, and there is a challenge to develop vaccines and diagnostics for new diseases withinjust 100 days. let's speak to our correspondent nomia iqbal in carbis bay. they did promise us plans to tackle a future pandemic and we have seen it in black and white today. yes.
9:06 pm
a future pandemic and we have seen it in black and white today.— it in black and white today. yes, we have. it in black and white today. yes, we have- this — it in black and white today. yes, we have. this was _ it in black and white today. yes, we have. this was the _ it in black and white today. yes, we have. this was the big _ it in black and white today. yes, we have. this was the big initiative - have. this was the big initiative that they wanted to create to try and prevent future pandemic is like this ever happening again, and in the way that it has happened, the devastation it caused, it was something very key for all of them. just now the g7 leaders have been wrapping up their beach party, we had that incredibly impressive display by the red arrows. i can't move the camera around but there are lots of people who live here, there are residential homes and holiday homes and everyone came out onto the balcony with their cameras. it is not often you see something like this in carbis bay and you didn't really need your binoculars because we got such a clear view of the red arrows. down there on the beach, i think it made a good impression as well. there was a representative from the red arrows talking to the leaders about what they were seeing.
9:07 pm
we saw the us presidentjoe biden give the uk prime minister boris johnson a pat on the back as if to say, well done, good show, and i think that probably went down very well with mrjohnson who was the coast of the summit.— well with mrjohnson who was the coast of the summit. james landale was sa in: coast of the summit. james landale was saying that _ coast of the summit. james landale was saying that when _ coast of the summit. james landale was saying that when you _ coast of the summit. james landale was saying that when you can - coast of the summit. james landale| was saying that when you can deploy the red arrows like this, and wheel out three generations of the royal family and set it in a place like cornwall, you have have a fighting chance of pulling off successful summit. ~ ,,., , , , , summit. absolutely. the president is off to meet the _ summit. absolutely. the president is off to meet the queen _ summit. absolutely. the president is off to meet the queen again - off to meet the queen again tomorrow, because i suppose when you are a us president you can't meet the queen enough, can you? the summit will continue tomorrow, it is the final day. the session starts early in the morning. we are expecting them to focus on climate change, the sessions are being
9:08 pm
called protecting values. there will be a pre—recorded voice memo from sir david attenborough and then we will get the very important document that will be published to let us know what the leaders have agreed on and what conclusions they have drawn and what conclusions they have drawn and also what they haven't agreed on i guess. after that all of them will be under way but president biden has a few more conversations to have. he is off to meet the russian president vladimir putin. before that, tea with the queen.— vladimir putin. before that, tea with the queen. , ., ., with the queen. very important, and we will focus — with the queen. very important, and we will focus on _ with the queen. very important, and we will focus on that _ with the queen. very important, and we will focus on that when _ with the queen. very important, and we will focus on that when he - with the queen. very important, and we will focus on that when he goes i we will focus on that when he goes to windsor tomorrow. like you for that. plenty of protest going on around cornwall. in fact we got one just behind us in the does care in falmouth bay. 0cean rebellion. about 20 little birds out there, two ships with their flags and banners. 0n the banners it says, if the ocean die,
9:09 pm
we die. they are calling for 30% of written waters to be set aside as an coach —— no cash reserve. here in cornwall, a number of ngos are hoping to have their say on proceedings — including the urgency of tackling global poverty. ruth valerio is an environmentalist, theologian and director of global advocacy at disaster relief and development charity tea rfund. she told me what she wants the g7 leaders to conclude. we want to see .7 being put back again by the uk government. .7 of gdp? .7 of gdp, which is our aid budget, going towards some of the poorest communities in the world. we've been hearing that as that money is cut, fewer girls are going to school, more vaccines are sitting on shelves that aren't being delivered, other health services aren't able to happen. boris johnson wants to be seen as a global leader. this is an absolutely crucial
9:10 pm
year for so many issues. that's not going to happen if he is a man who breaks his promises — above all breaks his promises to some of the most marginalised communities in the world. but wouldn't he say, "look, when we made this commitment in the manifesto we weren't facing a pandemic, we've run up an awful amount of debt." last week, british viewers would say, "we couldn't afford to put 10 billion into schools to help our students get up to speed. so should we be spending that sort of money on people overseas?" well, yesterday i heard boris johnson talking very positively about our economy and about the economy bouncing back, and the aid cuts have come at a time when others are facing a double whammy of covid and of climate, so now is not the time for us to be turning our backs on our global neighbours. there is also £450 million of new money, we are told, that's
9:11 pm
going towards children's education. is that welcome? is that outside the .5 that the international aid budget now is? well, it's new money but let's put that in the context of the cut, which is the equivalent of about 5 billion. so it might be a little bit of new money here, but then you have a huge amount of aid cut — so it's a drop in the ocean and really doesn't mean anything. let's talk about climate change because, of course, this does affect the poorest communities. there are 47 of the poorest nations around the world who were promised £100 billion. i think at the paris climate agreement. earlier. a lot earlier. and still we are trying to get up to that mark, which is where the cynicism comes from at summits like this. yeah, that's right. the finance ministers last week recommitted to delivering that 100 billion, but let's remember, that was committed in 2009 and it
9:12 pm
still hasn't been delivered. so this weekend, we need to see a plan for it to be delivered quickly, but then we mustn't stop and think that we've done it, because that should have been done years ago. we now need to be focusing on what other money we can release in order to support lower and middle income countries as they face the brunt of the climate crisis. but we were talking to someone here from the eden project, tim smit, earlier. he said we really did see common purpose and a real focus on climate change at last night's dinner at the eden project. do you recognise, actually, that the uk is actually leading from the front on this now. i think we are about to get a new green initiative, a new framework for investment in developing countries. is it time for other g7 countries to follow the uk's example? yeah, i'm really encouraged to hear that from tim smit. and earlier this year the uk ended their financing of overseas fossil fuels — a brilliant example that we now need
9:13 pm
to see the other g7 nations following that lead and also ending their support to overseas fossil fuels projects. but then, domestically, we need to be working towards a green recovery that helps us develop societies that are sustainable and resilient and green, and one of the key parts of that is shifting away from our fossil fuel funding onto clean energy. now, our countries have been talking a brilliant rhetoric about green recovery and building back better, but a recent report from tearfund showed that over the course of the pandemic the g7 nations have pumped $189 billion into fossil fuels, as opposed to 147 billion into green energy. so we have the rhetoric and then we have the reality. over this weekend, we want to see some clear plans that will get
9:14 pm
us towards building, using the economic recovery package is to get us onto a green recovery. there are lots of groups around the g7 this week who want their say. is to get us onto a green recovery. renewable energy is where much of the focus will be posted as we move towards this, cornwall is sitting on a veritable gold mine because there's so much lithium in the ground here in cornwall that they are looking to mine. i'm joined now by dr robin shailfrom penzance — he's a senior lecturer in geology at exeter university and brandon hargreave joins me from newquay, he's a sustainable business owner who runs a coffee truck called koala karlous that's run on lithium batteries.?? ?
9:15 pm
we will talk to him about that and a second, but let me pick up with you, robin, how much lithium is there here in cornwall? this robin, how much lithium is there here in cornwall?— robin, how much lithium is there here in cornwall? this area is one ofthe here in cornwall? this area is one of the most _ here in cornwall? this area is one of the most enriched _ here in cornwall? this area is one of the most enriched parts - here in cornwall? this area is one of the most enriched parts of - here in cornwall? this area is one i of the most enriched parts of europe for a lithium and it is all down to the granite which underlies much of devon and cornwall which is a huge volume, we are looking at thousands of cubic kilometres. within the granite there is a mineral which is enriched in lithium and that is what is attracting all of the interest. globally companies are looking where we are going to get lithium from for the batteries for the green revolution stock cornwall is of the locations that interest at the moment. there are two possibilities. 0ne moment. there are two possibilities. one is that we extract lithium within the granite, known as a hard rock that the resource, and the other possibility is trying to extract lithium out of brown's and that overlaps with the geothermal energy aspect of the energy
9:16 pm
transition in cornwall. so energy aspect of the energy transition in cornwall. so you can do it sustainably, _ transition in cornwall. so you can do it sustainably, you _ transition in cornwall. so you can do it sustainably, you can - transition in cornwall. so you can do it sustainably, you can mine i transition in cornwall. so you can do it sustainably, you can mine it sustainably?— do it sustainably, you can mine it sustainabl ? , , ., sustainably? yes. obviously you dig somethin: sustainably? yes. obviously you dig something up _ sustainably? yes. obviously you dig something up and _ sustainably? yes. obviously you dig something up and it _ sustainably? yes. obviously you dig something up and it is _ sustainably? yes. obviously you dig something up and it is gone. - sustainably? yes. obviously you dig something up and it is gone. the i something up and it is gone. the brine is interesting as well. there are two different models. when you are looking at brine extraction as a model being pursued by cornish a synergy there with the developing deep geothermal energy industry in cornwall, you may or may not be aware that the deepest uk borehole was completed in 2019 near redruth and that is getting its final testing in the next month or so with the intention of generating electricity and potentially if this is rolled out more generally generating heat in south—west england. but it's notjust electricity and heat that may be generated, because the granite is naturally enriched in lithium, lithium is present in those geothermal waters and so there is the potential for that to be expected. the potential for that to be exneeted-_
9:17 pm
the potential for that to be exected., , , ., ., expected. just before we turn to brandon, expected. just before we turn to brandon. who — expected. just before we turn to brandon, who runs— expected. just before we turn to brandon, who runs this - expected. just before we turn to brandon, who runs this drug - expected. just before we turn to brandon, who runs this drug on| brandon, who runs this drug on lithium batteries, as we all move towards electric cars, that truck. is there enough in cornwall fuel cars throughout the united kingdom? we are in the early stages, there are two companies who are involved in the early projections suggest that we may well be able to meet the demands of batteries for the uk, the automobile industry. if we can actually achieve that degree of sustainability and all the implication that has got for carbon footprint, not transporting across the globe, that would be great for uk plc, but it is also important in terms of eu rules of origin in terms of trying to create components in the uk can then go into our cars prior to them being sold and they are not subject to additional tariffs that we made those rules of origin were serious. so it is early days. i think over the next year to
9:18 pm
three years we will understand the full size of the resource and the ease with which it can be extracted. they are exciting times. cornwall really is the centre of this green revolution in the uk both for lithium as a middle and upper batteries but also for deep geothermal energy.- batteries but also for deep geothermal energy. that is really fascinating- _ geothermal energy. that is really fascinating. let's _ geothermal energy. that is really fascinating. let's turn _ geothermal energy. that is really fascinating. let's turn to - geothermal energy. that is really| fascinating. let's turn to brandon. you are a pioneer because i understand you were a musician before the pandemic but of course things seized up as we closed down and you went into coffee, so how do you run your coffee truck sustainably?— you run your coffee truck sustainably? you run your coffee truck sustainabl ? , , sustainably? basically i lost my “ob last ear sustainably? basically i lost my “ob iastyearandfi sustainably? basically i lost my “ob last year and everything i sustainably? basically i lost my “ob last year and everything seized h sustainably? basically i lost my job last year and everything seized up, so what _ last year and everything seized up, so what i _ last year and everything seized up, so what i did was decided to build a solar— so what i did was decided to build a solar powered music studio first, that solar powered music studio first, thai is— solar powered music studio first, that is what i wanted to do. but i did was— that is what i wanted to do. but i did was i— that is what i wanted to do. but i did was i did some research into solai’. _ did was i did some research into solar, i— did was i did some research into solar, i didn't have a band at this point _ solar, i didn't have a band at this point and — solar, i didn't have a band at this point and i— solar, i didn't have a band at this point and i invested and did some research — point and i invested and did some research and invested into lithium

brandon's peppered with a home—made electric car. there is a big day ahead. we will get the inside story of what happened at this summit and we will get a communique which borisjohnson will present. serious events tonight on the pitch in that denmark game against finland so we will get a sport update. there was a shocking and distressing incident well as we've been hearing, there was a quite shocking and distressing incident at the denmark versus finland euro 2020 game in copenhagen where danish midfielder christian eriksen collapsed suddenly on the pitch in the first half. he was immediately given cpr by medics and then rushed to hospital. eriksen is said to be stable and is awake. his team—mates decided, having spoken to eriksen that they wanted to return and finish the match. finland are competing at their first major tournament and surprised

the nerves keptjangling. the swiss were accurate but ruled offside. wales in the end were relieved to hold on for a draw. unseeded czech player barbora krejcikova has claimed her first major title with a three set win over anastasia pavlyuchenkova in a hard—fought french open final. the 25—year—old former world doubles number one was making only her fifth appearance in a grand slam singles draw. afterwards she dedicated the victory to herformer coach, the late jana novotna. i cannot believe that i actually won a grand slam. i was going through a hard time. i read the want of experience is because i thought it would make me really strong. pretty much her last words were just enjoy and just try to win a grand slam.

that's all from the bbc sports centre. you're watching bbc news. hello there. it should be a warmer day tomorrow, and turning more humid as well. many parts of the country had lengthy spells of sunshine today. the warmest weather was in southern england, 25 degrees in hampshire and also in dorset. not quite so lucky with the sunshine here in northern ireland, much more cloud around today. but cloud is still across the country at the moment. it will stay cloudy in northern ireland tonight. and more cloud will push its way into scotland, bringing a little drizzle over the hills and coasts in the north—west of the country. clear skies, though, for england and wales, and temperatures are manageable at nine to 12 degrees, it may not be quite as cool as that, though, for northern ireland and scotland, where we hang onto that cloud. and there is actually a weather front wavering in the far north—west, bringing some rain into the north—west of scotland later on sunday. ahead of that, though, the azores high is building in — it is bringing in dry weather, sunshine, more heat
9:27 pm
and increasing humidity as well. some sunny spells, really, for england and wales. some cloud at times, especially towards the north—west. the cloud should break, though, for a while in northern ireland. and while we should see some rain coming into the north—west of scotland and the northern isles, some sunshine elsewhere in scotland, lifting temperatures in the north—east to 26 degrees. a warmer day for northern ireland. through the midlands towards the south—east of england, temperatures could reach a humid 28 or 29 degrees. so a warmer looking day at wembley for the england against croatia game. the winds will be light and it will feel quite muggy out there as well. quite humid air. ahead of that weather front bringing the rain into the north—west of scotland, some rain will head southwards, front across scotland and northern ireland on sunday night. by the time the rain reaches northern ireland and northern wales, itjust peters out and we are left with a band of cloud heading towards the south—east of england. sunny spells to follow. more cloud for northern ireland and scotland. may be a few showers in the north—west. many parts of the country will become less humid, except the south—east,
9:28 pm
where temperatures could actually reach 30 degrees around the london area. those temperatures will drop, mind you, overnight, as cooler air even arrives here. but as we head towards the middle part of the week, there is a lot of heat down towards iberia. and at the same time, we have got another weather front bringing some rain in from the north—west of the uk. by the time we get to wednesday, that heat and humidity could trigger some thunderstorms across parts of england and wales.
9:29 pm
a hello, this is bbc news. the headlines... shock at the euros this evening as denmark's christian eriksen collapses on the pitch
9:30 pm
during their match against finland. uefa have released a statement saying he has been transferred to hospital and stabilised — the match between denmark and finland resumed with finland going on to win the game 1—0. the lifting of england's remaining coronavirus restrictions could be delayed by up to 4 weeks — as the prime minister says it's a race between the spike in cases and vaccines. you've got to be cautious in order to deliver what we want to see, which is an irreversible road map, but we're looking at the data today and again you've got hospitalisations up, you've got cases up. uk prime minister, borisjohnson, says there is a "lot of misunderstanding" from the eu about northern ireland trade — as tensions over the issue hang over his talks with fellow european leaders. meanwhile, the us president's focus will be on forming an alliance of countries to combat the influence of china. now on bbc news, it's time for our world — in 2019—20 australia,
