and microsoft says this is just the start. james clayton, bbc news, seattle. let's look at the football. non—league wrexham have been knocked out of the fa cup. they were beaten 3—1 by sheffield united, who are in the championship, in theirfourth round replay. it brings an end to a remarkable cup run for the national league side. joe lynskey was watching. for the non—league team owned by hollywood stars, bramall lane was the set for the sequel — an fa cup replay at sheffield united, a side three tiers above wrexham and more used to the spotlight. just like in the first match, it had looked a simple script. united broke through to go 1—0 up, but once again, wrexham found a way back. mullins aground, penalty.

their man for the big moment, striker paul mullin, the club's top scorer this season, has scored in each round and now made it 1-1. whoever won this game would face spurs in round five. now, remarkably, wrexham had the chance to lead. a second foul, a second penalty. but this time mullins�* shot was saved. and so in stoppage time again, sheffield united struck. a winning goal in the 94th minute and one more on 96. the two games between them have brought incredible twists, but the hollywood cup story has come to an end. joe lynseky, bbc news. time for a look at the weather. here's louise lear. hello. seems like this behind me quite commonplace at this morning. it was a cold, frosty and foggy start that much of england and wales. in fact, start that much of england and wales. infact, parts start that much of england and wales. in fact, parts of oxfordshire saw temperatures of —7. but once the sunshine gets going, it was quite a pleasant afternoon. just take a look

at padstow income. temperatures peaked at 12 degrees and you can start to feel that spring might be just around the corner. high pressure is dominating the weather story at the moment for most of us but take a look at this weather front that is just south of iceland. that is what is creeping towards the far north—west of scotland as we speak. a bit of a north—south divide as we move into tomorrow. under clear skies, frost and fog could be yet again another issue, but with a little more cloud and more of the breeze, temperatures here above freezing but once again, below freezing, may be as low as —5 or —6 in more rural parts. so yes, some of the fog will be slow to play. perhaps more dense in places in comparison to this morning. that is worth bearing in mind if you are up and off early. hopefully it will lift and we will get some sunshine coming through. a veil of high cloud into north wales and north midlands ahead of this weather front arriving. that will bring some strong, damaging gusts of wind through the latter stages of the

day. 60—70 mph and some of the rain quite heavy as well into the western isles and far north—west of the great glen. here, temperature is around 9—10. perhaps if the fog lingers, the temperatures might struggle a little more tomorrow, seven, eight or nine at the very best. the front sync south but weakens. not that much insignificant rain againfor weakens. not that much insignificant rain again for england and wales. a band of cloud and some drizzle first thing. sunny spells follow behind, a scattering of showers into the far north—west and yet again, those temperatures ranging from around 8-9. ., , a, , temperatures ranging from around 8-9. ., , a, and that's bbc news at ten on tuesday the 7th of february. there's more analysis of the days main stories on newsnight, which isjust getting under way on bbc two. that with victoria just about to go on air. on bbc one, stay with us if you want the news where you are with all of our colleagues in the nations

and regions. but from the ten team, it's goodnight. hello, good evening and welcome to your sports update from bbc news. non league wrexham are out of the fa cup after losing 3—1 at sheffield united. sheffield united managed to get the breakthrough in the second half through anel ahmedhodzic. but wrexham and striker paul mullin hit back. he equalised from the spot but then missed the chance to put them 2—1 up with less than 20 minutes to go. and the championship side made them pay, billy sharp put the blades ahead in the 94th minute before sander berger put wrexham to the sword deep into injury time to break welsh hearts. elsewhere an injury time winner from nathan tella saw vincent kompany�*s burnley set up a last 16 match against league one

fleetwood town who downed sheffield wednesday i—o. also into the 5th round are fourth tier grimsby town whose reward for knocking out championship side luton town is a trip to bottom of the premier league southampton. well there was more hollywood drama in the scottish challenge cup as hamilton academical secured their place in the final. they took the lead in their semi final against scottish league one side queen of the south, before the underdogs pulled one back to take it to extra time. but this goal from ryan oney in the 96th minute was enough to send the hosts through. england head coach sarina wiegman has named a 26—player squad to face south korea, italy and belgium in the defence of the arnold clark cup later this month. captain leah williamson returns after missing the november international break with injury, while everton�*sjess park keeps her place after scoring on her debut in the 4 0 win over japan in november. uncapped everton goalkeeper emily ramsey is called up for the first time

while arsenal's beth mead remains sidelined with a knee injury. spurs midfielder bethany england also misses out. you cannot play the same players three times in a row within eight days. also with their schedule they have a clock before this window and after this wind is a discrete opportunity also to try out some things for all of us and also important for us to see more players and to get as much information about players at this time. well the lionesses success last year contributed to a doubling of the amount of time viewers spent watching women's sport in 2022 according to the women's sport trust. the research found the average viewer watched eight hours and 44 minutes of women's sport in 2022 compared with three hours and 47 minutes in 2021. last year's euros offered a boost of its own, with more than half of those watching the tournament who were new to women's sport, went on to watch more after england won the final.

wales midfielderjoe allen has retired from international football at the age of 32. the swansea city player made 7a appearances for his country and helped the team qualify for three major tournaments, including last year's world cup in qatar. the ex stoke and liverpool player's news follows that of gareth bale who quit the international side, as well as all football, last month. leeds united have begun the interview process for their new head coach and hope to have an appointment before the weekend. leeds sacked jesse marsch yesterday. the club without a league win in seven games, and only outside the relegation places on goal difference and rayo vallecano manager andoni iraola is one of the names linked wirth the position. leeds take on manchester united tomorrow night at old trafford michael skubala is part of the team replacing marsch in the meantime... jesse was a good guy and the team

was working hard forjesse but they are used to changes, it is professional football and they are professional football and they are professional football and they are professional football athletes and i think the mood is... i would not say down but the mood is ok. the mood is about, we have to focus on manchester united we have to be positive and we have to go after three points. positive and we have to go after three pom-— positive and we have to go after three pointe— positive and we have to go after three points. and that is all your support for— three points. and that is all your support for now. _ this is bbc news. we will have the headlines and all of the main news stories at the top of the hour straight after this news programme. we face a massive dilemma. last year was officially the uk's warmest year on record. london was burning. california's fuel—choked, highly flammable forests combined with drier conditions linked to climate change. swathes of land across - southern pakistan have been turned into islands.

national records have been broken in eight countries and regional records in three others. climate change is making extreme weather more likely, so tackling it is more urgent than ever, but... prices are rising at their fastest rates for 40 years. food and fuel and energy. all of us have seen the cost of living going up. cost of living. we buy less and we buy cheaper products. if they're not going to give us the wage rises, we can't compete with inflation. the uk has been trying to lead the global effort to tackle climate change. it's time for humanity to grow up. but climate change is far from the prime minister's only concern. our country is facing a profound economic crisis. but warnings about the effects of climate change are getting louder. we are on a fast track to climate disaster. climate activists say

there is no time to waste. if we don't end our contribution to climate change, we will see more frequent and extreme weather events. so here's the question, can britain afford to tackle climate change? let's start this journey with a phrase you need to understand. net zero. when we burn fossil fuels, we release carbon dioxide. some of it is taken up by plants as they grow, the oceans absorb a fair bit, but the rest goes up into the atmosphere. and carbon dioxide is a bit special. it traps the sun's heat. it's why we don't freeze during the night. but the more we put into the atmosphere, the warmer the world gets, which is where net zero comes in. the idea is we need to reduce

emissions as much as we can, but at the moment there are lots of things which we just can't make carbon—free, things like concrete or aircraft. so scientists and engineers are trying to find ways to capture greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and store them away forever. the aim is the net result will be zero emissions, hence the name net zero. and back in 2019, the then—prime minister theresa may made this promise. we will be ending our contribution to climate change by 2050 and legislating for a net zero emissions target. borisjohnson continued the effort and made climate policies a cornerstone of his premiership. the uk government has decided to become the world leader in low—cost, clean power generation. cheaper than coal, cheaper than gas. and all the major parties have put the net zero principle at the heart of their strategies. it's a rare consensus

in british politics. aberdeen is the oil and gas capital of europe. let us resolve today to now make it the net zero capital of the world. i move trillions of dollars, yen, i euros and pounds out of fossil fuels and into renewables. 100% clean power by 2030. so what's the problem? well, a group of vocal tory mps say we are moving too fast. nobody knows what this costs. everyone says, "i love it. it's a great idea, here's the bill of it." and then the public starts saying, "ah, why are we doing this "when the uk is a 1% outputter of c02 "and china is 30% and growing?" the net zero scrutiny group was set up by two prominent eurosceptics, craig mckinlay and steve baker, who's a junior minister in the new government. young people in my constituency are at once learning to drive - and also demanding green measures. i i think they're going to be veryl

disappointed when they discover they can't own a car, can't go on holiday. i |we'll have expensive heating that| comes up to a lower temperature. they've been saying the net zero plans are too big, too hasty, and most important, too expensive for voters to stomach. they claim to have up to 50 supporters in parliament, but wouldn't give us their names. the net zero scrutiny group says it isn't questioning whether climate change is real, but its leaders are closely associated with a think tank operating out of that building over there, the global warming policy foundation. now, it has been questioning the scientific consensus on climate change for years. the group says climate policy is a ticking time bomb in uk politics. we've been down this road before with brexit and that's why i'm - warning that we'll have a terrible political crisis if _ we don't sort it out. sound familiar?

and guess who's taken up the issue? we want a referendum. on whether the net zero agenda makes sense. what are our demands? a petition calling for such a referendum was submitted to parliament, but it got fewer than 25,000 signatures. no major political party supports the idea either. nigel farage has made his career questioning established consensus, so small as his campaign may be, is he onto something? how's things? things are all right, if you can afford it. | why a referendum on net zero? one of the reasons i've got involved in this debate is this. _ we've been busy for the last 15 years. . i we are exporting manufacturing jobsi by having some of the most expensive electricity against america, - against europe, against obviously the far east and our competitors. so we export jobs - and we import energy. we could produce our own energy, i which interestingly would be a lower c02 output for the world.

all i'm arguing is this. am i saying that we should not move towards sensible forms _ of renewable energy? no, i'm not saying that. what i am saying is that i if we think by closing down british manufacturing, if we think by not - producing our own gas, - coal that we still need for steel, etc, that we're somehow saving the world, it's a delusion- and a very expensive one. we led the world into the industrial revolution that created this kind of huge production of carbon dioxide. why don't we lead the world out of it with new clean technology? because... become world beaters in a new industry. because, number one, - you can't do it at the moment without the backup of substantial amounts of fossil fuel. _ and therefore the logic is, rather than importing it, l we may as well produce it ourselves. the point i'm making in this- discussion with you is not that i'm saying global warming is a load of nonsense, is not that -

i'm saying we should - ignore our responsibilities to future generations. i'm not saying any of that. what i'm saying is what we're doing in the name of combating _ it is making us uncompetitive - and is not actually, in many cases, lowering global c02. well, there are two things... we can boast... well, there are two things there... we can boast that c02 levels in this country are down 44%. _ the reason is we'vel exported much of it. actually, that's because we switched from coal to gas, which is a much lower carbon content, and we've started using lots of offshore wind. there are a couple of things, though. let's, on the broader point, you say we're beggaring ourselves. arguably, we're creating new industries, new renewable, clean industries... greenjobs! i know! isn't it marvellous! ..and exporting and beginning to export the skills we've got here in the uk abroad. who's building the offshore wind turbines in america? british engineers. i tell you what we're not exporting. electricity, we're importing it. can you believe it? we import electricity. but that makes a lot of sense. i mean, why wouldn't you buy it if there's a surplus

in france and you need it? what the ukraine war has showed us, actually, - is when it comes to energy, - food, the things without which life, normal life of any kind can't - continue, there is an argument, even if it's a titsy bit more - expensive, there is an argument for self sufficiency. there is an argument on not - being dependent on foreign regimes. that was so interesting. mr farage clearly thinks he's onto something. he clearly thinks that he can mobilise millions of people against net zero. so, you know, is a movement forming? is the momentum beginning to gather? i mean, to be honest, i'm not so sure. but let's be honest, the political elites here in britain massively underestimated the popularity of brexit. so could the call for a net zero referendum become the springboard for a political movement? hi, esther. how are you doing? hi, justin. i'm good.

esther webberfrom politico has been following the story closely. it does seem at the moment that there's been no kind of real breakthrough or kind of moment that has seen the campaign explode or really hit home. say, if you can contrast what's happened here with, say, the gilets jaunes movement in france, which was driven a lot by petrol prices. so, esther, you've written about the parallels between brexit and net zero. what do you think they are? first of all, you have the personnel. so there's a kind of subset of the conservative party who are questioning how these policies are made and who has consented to them, just as there was with brexit. so the campaigners are really looking at lower income voters and trying to sort of position them against what they call the kind of cosy elite consensus.

and they're trying to use that same kind of wedge argument on net zero. has net zero got the traction that brexit had? you see in polls, there's sort of general and rising support for the idea of tackling climate change by the government. but it's more of a split when you drill down into people's views on how those things should be paid for. and that's the kind of area that the sceptics are looking to get into. do you think the energy crisis that was brought about by the ukraine war, do you think that will dilute the commitment of politicians in westminster to net zero? what's really interesting, i think, about the dynamic of this current conservative party is we've had a lot of new mps elected in seats

that have never been tory before, the so—called red wall. and people are seeing that perhaps those mps are going to be sceptical of net zero. in fact, it's more mixed than that. and a lot of those mps see the net zero agenda as key to creating newjobs in places like the northeast. well, the net zero sceptics have certainly plugged into some serious concerns — the energy crisis, inflation, the cost of living. what about the costs of not zero? the costs of not decarbonising our economy? that is certainly what lots of climate activists argue. hey, sepi, how are you doing? great to see you. good to see you.

thanks very much. got this nice electric car. fantastic. sepi golzari—munro is an energy and climate analyst. so, sepi, we are in the middle of a massive cost of living crisis. is this really the time to be pouring money into going net zero? fossilfuels, gas, oil, coal, they're inherently volatile markets. they cost an absolute fortune and they've driven up household bills. that's simply unacceptable. fossil fuels are actually driving the cost of living crisis, and they're working against our national interest. so, sepi, what would we see if we didn't go net zero? if we don't go net zero, we don't end our contribution to climate change. and if we don't end our contribution to climate change, we will see more frequent and extreme weather events. we will see more extreme heat, flooding, which is going to cause

untold damage to human lives, livelihoods, agriculture, biodiversity, our infrastructure, our economies. the reality is, is that every fraction of a degree matters. the sooner that we can end our contribution to climate change, the fewer of these devastating events that we'll have to tolerate. how much would it cost us not to tackle climate change? there are economic costs and there are human costs. we know that 200,000 homes and businesses on the coastline of england alone are at risk of rising sea levels by 2050. and this is already happening. but that's, that's the human cost, but we will also see a cost to our economy, it's been estimates of around 7% of our gdp by the end of the century through climate impacts. you say it's worth the cost, worth investing in net zero but the truth is, what is the point if other

countries around the world, much bigger emitters than britain, britain's just i% of global emissions, other countries aren't making the effort? what is the point of britain making the investment? last year alone, china built more offshore wind capacity in one year in 2021 than the uk as a whole over a decade. we are in a position where we can actually get ahead, develop the technologies, develop the net zero dividend, not only for our citizens, but that we can then export across the world. it's a win—win. but what people like nigel farage say is, look, there's no democratic mandate. the public haven't been asked if they want to make these investments in tackling climate change, have they? there absolutely is a public mandate on this. we've seen it time and time again. climate change and environment is consistently in the top three concerns of the british public. going, legislating for net zero, going for net zero policies was on the front page of the conservative party manifesto

in 2019, which the public voted for. and we have, we've polled the public... but hold on, labour and the lib dems all support net zero as well. there isn't a choice for the public. there was no—one that they could vote for if they didn't support net zero. we've polled the public and we've seen that actually rather than wasting time on a referendum, by a factor of two to one, they just want to see the government to get on with delivering their manifesto commitment to implement net zero. i mean, look around you now. i mean, the truth is, these wind turbines aren't turning. renewable energy isn't a reliable source of power 24—7, is it? the point of a future electricity system is that it's diversified. you have a huge range of sources. you've got onshore wind, you've got offshore wind, you've got solar, you'll have hydrogen. you, depending on the policy choices that are made, you may even have some nuclear, you may have some abated gas. but the reality is, is that our electrical engineers,

these are serious people who have been working on this issue for a very long time, and they know what they're talking about, they're notjust some hippies protesting about climate change, they are saying that they can run on 100% renewables by 2035, which is the government target. so who are we to argue? even if we do transition to net zero, along the way, we're going to need to use some fossilfuels, yeah? so why not use domestic fossil fuels? why not exploit the resources in the north sea, the shale gas that we've got under our feet here, maybe? the north sea is a very mature basin. frankly, there's not really much more we can squeeze out of it. this isn't the 19805 any more, where we had prolific supplies of gas. there are not 50 years' worth of shale gas beneath our feet. actually, the best estimates say around six months�* worth at best. and to get at that is going to be hugely expensive, hugely disruptive, and the public simply don't want it.

as the bbc�*s climate editor, i'm often responsible for bringing some pretty terrifying warnings, warnings about the future of the places where we've built our lives, built our communities, which is why i've come to east yorkshire. this place already experiences some of the worst coastal erosion in europe. up to ten metres of coastline vanishes into the sea in a bad year. this is happening for a number of different reasons, but the rising sea levels and more extreme weather climate change will bring are likely to make the problem worse. now, how we get to net zero is an open question. depending on who you ask, you might get a different answer. but what most politicians

from all the main political parties agree is the need to get there. and the science is clear on this, reaching net zero and fast is our best hope of tackling climate change. hello there. expect another cold start across england and wales on wednesday morning with early frost and fog still under this influence of high pressure, slightly milder but windier further north and west. rain is on its way, but the fog, well, that may well linger for quite some time during the day. eventually it will lift into sunshine, the frost disappear. a pleasant winter's afternoon

awaits more cloud, though, aad for scotland. through northern ireland and for scotland. and again, the wind strengthening gusts in excess of 70 miles an hour, strong enough to cause some disruption and some of that rain quite heavy as it pushes into the far north—west here. temperatures 9 to 10 degrees where the fog lingers. we're looking at a maximum through the day of around seven or eight by thursday, our weather front. by then, a weak feature, a band of clouds is easing away from the south—east corner. brighter skies behind a few showers into the far north and west. top temperatures on thursday, 7 to 9 degrees.
