�*animals for our rivers, species of animals for our rivers, our waterways and our natural way of life, so i think hopefully the message is finally sinking in, and may be the silver lining for the increases in energy cost is that this may do a lot more for controlling carbon emissions and stopping people from using cars as much many of the tax policies we have been trying to follow would have been trying to follow would have done, because the changes are so extreme, i wish they hadn't been quite so quick and we had more of a smooth transition. but certainly, we need, in my view, to take this issue seriously and urgently reduce and

the pollution of our planet and the changes that we are forcing on nature. this is, as james said, one of the papers talking about nature fighting back here. trying to protect the planet from us. james, take us to the _ protect the planet from us. james, take us to the front _ protect the planet from us. james, take us to the front of— protect the planet from us. james, take us to the front of your - protect the planet from us. james, take us to the front of your paper, | take us to the front of your paper, the independent, online these days, ministers told to rewrite climate emergency plan. this is an interesting story. i'm quite surprised no one else has run with this. i believe it's friends of the earth mounting a court case against the government, and the justice today has declared that the governments have failed to outline sufficient details of their net zero policy, and i think that as they were saying about prince charles, this is incredibly timely. and jermaine. two dozen wildfires in this country in the last 48 hours. that is a record number. if this isn't the time to tackle climate

change, the fact that the government has not provided us with enough details about this vital policy that even the very right wing candidates standing to be to a leader and prime minister have committed to a net zero policy, we have to have more detail about it and we have to know what is going to happen when are we willjust be fiddling while rome burns. in fact, the whole planet burns. in fact, the whole planet burns. in fact, the whole planet burns. i was talking to friends earlier, and something that the independent points out in its arsenal. some thejudge independent points out in its arsenal. some the judge found that 95% of the meeting of net zero, they had the policy, because the last what he was saying is the lack of transparency meant that the public didn't know in parliament couldn't hold ministers to account for it. that is what mps have been saying as well that the proposals from the government are extremely vague. it's

not something that is easy to see the analysis and see how these policies are going to work. we have yet to see the detail, we know the aspiration and the aspiration is right, and actually this government has done an awful lot to help with climate change. what mps are whining about is the issue that we were just talking of, which is as they put it, a major hole at the centre of the government's policy for infrastructure resilience, and we don't know yet how the government plans to tackle this. we don't know yet how the government plans to tackle this.— plans to tackle this. we asked the department _ plans to tackle this. we asked the department made _ plans to tackle this. we asked the department made no _ plans to tackle this. we asked the department made no criticism - plans to tackle this. we asked the department made no criticism byl plans to tackle this. we asked the i department made no criticism by the substance of our plans which are well on track he can't explain how you get to this and you need to publish a report by march of next yearin publish a report by march of next year in which you do that. energy

costs more if wind not glowing. this is an interesting little consultation, this, but it is quite an intriguing one, because all the little tweaks that everybody needs to make to try to get the maximum value out of the energy we have got or are able to generate and try to find ways, for example, we have talked before, if you put your wash on in the middle of the night, it costs less to do we need to encourage people to do that in the middle of the night, but of course halfway through the cycle, you don't want to have to get up at three o'clock in the morning to click into the next thing.— the next thing. exactly. ithink this is an _ the next thing. exactly. ithink this is an interesting _ the next thing. exactly. ithink this is an interesting idea, - the next thing. exactly. ithink this is an interesting idea, but| the next thing. exactly. i think- this is an interesting idea, but i'm not sure how practical it is for households to be a ball to actually utilise this idea. with off—peak energy, you know what the hours are, you know if you use that energy it

will be cheaper, but how do you know when the wind is blowing or blowing enough in the right places to be able to drive the turbines that hopefully will have more and more of as we use less polluting forms of energy and develop offshore and onshore wind, but how are we meant, how we meant to look at the weather forecast each day before we put the washing on? i don't know.— washing on? i don't know. initiative aid washing on? i don't know. initiative paid attention _ washing on? i don't know. initiative paid attention mark— washing on? i don't know. initiative paid attention mark growing - washing on? i don't know. initiative paid attention mark growing up - washing on? i don't know. initiative paid attention mark growing up and| paid attention mark growing up and wet when miller was doing. i hate to interru t, wet when miller was doing. i hate to interrunt. but _ wet when miller was doing. i hate to interrupt, but the _ wet when miller was doing. i hate to interrupt, but the house _ wet when miller was doing. i hate to interrupt, but the house of- interrupt, but the house of commons, not the _ interrupt, but the house of commons, not the house of lords, to see how much _ not the house of lords, to see how much hot _ not the house of lords, to see how much hot air— not the house of lords, to see how much hot air is coming out of that in way— much hot air is coming out of that in way of— much hot air is coming out of that in way of determining how much of the spin _ in way of determining how much of the spin cycle to use that night. we the spin cycle to use that night. would have a the spin cycle to use that night. - would have a constant supply then, surely. for now, thank you so much, we will talk againjust surely. for now, thank you so much, we will talk again just after half past 11, have to say are both

looking amazingly cool. they will be back after they've had a nice glass of something. more news coming up at the top of the hour. sport and weather before that and i will be back with you in the papers at 11:30pm in. to stay with us here on bbc news. good evening. its been a tough day for defending heptathon world champion, katrina johnson thompson.. she's in action at the world athletics championships in oregon. johnson—thompson recovered from a ruptured achillies to make last year's tokyo olympics only to go out injured while competing. it looks like she'll struggle to match her achievements in doha in 2019. her long jump of 6 metres 25 was seventh best, which is also where she stands in the rankings overall.

meanwhile ,ethiopia's gotytom gebreslase posted a world championship—record time to win the women's marathon. she survived a two—way battle with kenya'sjudith korir. gebreslase broke away with about two k to go and never gave korir a chance down the final stretch to cross finishing line in two hours, 18 minutes and 11 seconds, smashing paula radcliffe's previous mark set in 2005. she survived it to a battle, can you's judith she survived it to a battle, can you'sjudith breaking away she survived it to a battle, can you's judith breaking away with about two k to go. never giving them about two k to go. never giving them a chance down the final stretch. crossing the finish line into our 18 minutes 11 seconds, smashing the previous set in 2000 he will also continue pay t20 crickets, stokes paid him 140,

taking 74 wickets. his most memorable performance, obviously coming in that 2019 world cup final where they set the match into a supernova, going on to claim that trophy for the first time. and then's women cricketers meanwhile completed a 3—0 clean sweep over south africa winning the final one day by 109 runs at leicester where the temperatures reached 37 celsius. that was put into that and tammy bowman to turn on the heaters help with 190 runs. they finished their innings on 371 for seven, south africa always on the back foot. it and blowing them up at 264, 262, rather with four overs to spare, that spare, that means that england needed points to two in the multiformat series. the two sides and explain 3t20 matches with the first on thursday at chelmsford. new zealand's men beat ireland by 31 runs in belfast in the first of 3t20

internationals, the trysts said ireland 174 to win but they fell well short ten balls remaining companies in and maryland 3—0. to my t20 games this week. football, belgium are into the neck up stages of a major tournament for the first time after beating italy 1—0 at manchester city's academy stadium in their euro group match. it was really the second half when that smart finish was enough to put the belgians into the last eight taking type second spot in group d. ison needed a win against france who qualified which would see them through and they fell behind afterjust they fell behind after just 46 seconds. just converted a penalty for iceland in the 11th minute of stoppage time to make it one all, much to the joy of the fans. but news of the belgium result filtered through and that

meant iceland went out so we have our 8 quarter finalists. and there are some very tasty ties to look forward to... 8 time euro winners germany go head to head 2017 semi finalists, austria, belgium's reward for tonights win over italy is a clash with olympic silver medallists sweden.... while france face the daunting prospect of reigning champions the netherlands. england meanwhile were the first team into the last 8 but they were without their head coach sarina wiegman for the last game because of covid, and she's still isolating as the squad prepares for their quarter final clash with spain on wednesday night in brighton. co. that is still around, it's a frustrating thing. it's unfortunate that she has got it, but with practice for so long, the scenarios, what would happen and she is still involved in the sessions remotely as well, so it is good to have that as well, so it is good to have that as well, but we have still got a fantastic technical staff who have carried on supporting us and, yeah, it doesn't feel much different, to be honest, she is still there, she

is still supporting us whether that is still supporting us whether that is remotely or in person. football's governing body is to trial a ban on heading with a view to removing it from the game for children under 12 in england. it follows research suggesting former footballers are more likely to die from brain disease than other people. the fa said it would apply for a law change from the 2023—24 season if the trial was successful. jamie fone is a former youth team coach ever since the death ofjeff around 20 years ago, a light has not been shown firmly on this link between football and brain disease. it was at the west from striker�*s coroner inquest in 2002 that a coroner said that the reason thatjeff died was because of dementia, but that was also caused because of repeated heading of a football, and since then, research has basically shown that former professional football is about three and half times more likely to develop a brain disease compared to people in the same age

of the general population. rather that was our football reporter. 0nto cycling now. geraint thomas hasn't given up hope of winning the tour de france, as the race enters the last week in the pyrenees. the 2018 champion will start stage 16 tomorrow morning in third place overall, 2 minutes 43 seconds behind denmark's jonas vingegaard. you now, two and currently strong writers in front of me notjust one. you've got to keep believing, and as a team, we are going to hopefully try and make the most of any thing we can and keep raising the best we can, and basicallyjust try to get to paris as quick as we can and that's all we can do, really, but as i keep saying to me you know, it's a three week race, not 15 days. we will see. and that's all the sport for now. from me and the rest of the team.
