details. and that's all the sport for now. more now on the us election. american tv networks have been debating how donald trump managed to win the election so convincingly in the end. and why kamala harris failed to attract enough support. while the pundits give their opinions, we have been finding out what voters thought. so we asked americans who are visiting washington from all over the states. i think there is an average american that feels the glamour of things like beyonce performing at rallies. that is not what i care about. i care about how can i afford a home one day or how can i afford to

for peace rather than war it will be better. so a few lines coming out of the kremlin. in 2015, world leaders pledged to try and prevent global temperatures rising by more than 1.5 celsius. but for the first time, global warming has exceeded 1.5 celsius across an entire year, according to the eu's climate service. keeping long—term temperature increases below this level is seen as crucial if the most damaging impacts of climate change are to be avoided. our global environment correspondent told me more. if this happens in the long term then we are warned that it will be catastrophic. already when we are at 1.1 or 1.2 celsius increase compared to a previous period we all know what's happening around the world. so if this stays for the long—term then it's going to be very bad. but in the meantime what we are told as this could be a temporary overshoot because of factors like el nino. but then

even then the un has warned the ipcc report has warned us that there might be some irreversible impacts. what are those impacts? that is the question now because we are talking about tipping points and so forth. if talking about tipping points and so forth.— talking about tipping points and so forth. if the warming does continue, _ and so forth. if the warming does continue, can - and so forth. if the warming does continue, can we i and so forth. if the warming does continue, can we deal| and so forth. if the warming i does continue, can we deal with the consequences?— the consequences? there was another reporter _ the consequences? there was another reporter un - the consequences? there was another reporter un has i the consequences? there was i another reporter un has brought out today, the adaptation gap report and it emphasises on adaptation but are we adapting to it? it says almost half of the adaption project within the un and the climate convention of the un is not working. or it's not sustainable. and the money is another issue. they say we need 190 billion to 360 billion us dollars for you to adapt all these changes. we just got 28 billion last year. a massive gap. and so many projects are not working. do we

have that knowledge, can we percolated down to the ground? and climate finance is not going to adaptation, it's going to mitigation which is about installing solar panels or wind turbines. that balancing act is the key. prince william has awarded £5 million to five different inventors, entrepreneurs and organisations working to reduce climate change. the earthshot prize winners were announced at a ceremony in cape town, south africa. a warning, this report by our senior royal correspondent, contains flashing images from the start. the carpet — green. the dress code — eco—friendly. the fashion — recycled for everyone here, including royalty. prince william wore a sustainable blazer from a vintage shop and biodegradable trainers as he walked the green carpet at the earthshot award ceremony. as he addressed the award ceremony, he began by greeting

the audience in different african languages, and he stressed his backing of the earthshot winners. we'll do everything we can to support them and help speed their solutions to scale. because when they succeed, we all succeed. the earthshot for cleaner air goes to gayo, green africa youth organisation. congratulations. winning £1 million for your environmental innovation is worth celebrating. and, backstage, the african winners got the biggest reaction. desmond, you did it. yes, we did it! we won! i still can't believe it. how does it feel? excited, delighted. my brain, it's frozen. congratulating the winners who came here as finalists and leave with £1 million and the support of a prince. their range of ideas may be

different, but they all share an optimistic vision of making the world cleaner and more sustainable. daniela relph, bbc news, cape town. that's it from me. mathie was up that's it from me. mathie was up next. thanks for being with us. hello. for many parts of the uk, the weather is going to stay pretty cloudy today. not really going to change very much, but for some expect something a bit brighter this weather. watch for pictures from yesterday showing this flat layer of cloud being pushed over the brecon beacons down the other side, with the air warming up on the other side, mixing with some slightly drier air. the cloud started to break up, so the lee of the mountains and the same sort of things happening today. the cloud can't really get over the mountains of northern scotland. so glorious sunshine here. and it's a similar picture for western parts of wales and to a degree, parts

of cumbria and parts of cornwall as well. if the sunshine comes out, it's also feeling pretty pleasant outside, with temperatures as high as 18 degrees in northern scotland, 17 degrees for western areas of wales. if you're stuck underneath the sheet of cloud, which most of us are. temperatures running around 12 c, give or take. and actually the weather feels quite cool. they'll even still be occasional spits of drizzle. now, overnight, that cloud sheet stays with us. the drizzle becomes a bit more extensive, and as well as that, we'll see a return of some mist and some fog patches, particularly over hills. our temperatures drifting down to between 8 and 11 c, but it could be very mild again in some of the sheltered glens of scotland for friday. it's a similar story for most. it stays pretty cloudy all day, the drizzle giving way to drier weather conditions but the cloud stubborn and reluctant to break to the north and west of high ground. it's here where we'll see the best of the day's sunshine. so again, it's probably northern scotland that will have the best prospect of seeing something a bit brighter and sunnier.

we start, then see some slow weather changes into the weekend. weak weather fronts approach to the west, bringing thicker cloud and a few patches of light rain or drizzle. better chance of seeing a few breaks in the cloud for eastern scotland and north east england. this time our temperatures ranging around 12 to 16 c. where the sunshine comes out shouldn't feel too bad. remember, sunday sees weather fronts move across the uk, bringing thicker cloud outbreaks of rain and some stronger winds, this time working across scotland. but at least that again will favour some breaks in the cloud to the east of high ground. our temperatures on sunday ranging from around 13 to 16 c and into next week. well, it looks pretty unsettled with rain or showers in the forecast. bye for now.
