going, ah! don't run away, because we don't have a lasso in here. that it is tonight. i'm don lemon, and this is pierre, and we will see you tomorrow night. "ac360" starts right now. okay. hey, good evening, and thank you for joining me. at the end of the day when we learned the identity of the isis killer jihadi john, we are learning about the search for his youngest recruits four ka canadians who could be in syria and potentially part of the fight already. and we are learning that nearly 3400 westerners have gone off to fight for isis already. and now according to the director of the nashltional intelligence include those four canadians. paula newton is in ottawa helping to cover the story. what do we know about the teens? >> we know they were radicalize

ed in the last four month, and the families were alerted that they were missing, and it is apparent that it was hand eded off to the national security officials, and that they had gone overseas to the middle east likely trying to get to syria in the hopes of joining isis. the fact remains, anderson, that the families are frantic to find out what happened to the children. >> their exact leication is not known? >> no, the officials on the ground in turkey are trying to help the families figure out what happened. but the fact is that there are many westerners that authorityies trying to track, and it is a huge problem, and the trail is cold. once they step over into syria, it is very difficult to find out what happened to them. >> and you have reported that canada started to revoke passports passports in these cases, but that did not happen here. >> yes, anderson you and i have been cover inging this for more than ten year, and we did it in

britain, talking about the radicalization and what is difference here in the canadian cases, but it is just that the families are reporting them to the authorities, but it did not happen quickly enough. i want the passports take pren the children. when they find out, they alert the authorities, a ndnd now in canada they can revoke the passports, but it did not happen in this case, and tonight, the quebec minister is saying that she is finding that radicalization is a growing problem here in canada. >> thank you, paula newton. and now the british man from a well off family who is becoming the global voice of isis. today, we learn from a number of source, and including high-placed intelligence sources who you see there, we are learning that he is a kuwaiti born londoner. and jihadi john as he became

known is mohammed emwazi. today, one of the families of one of his victims speaks out. >> it is good and i will feel closure and relief once there's a bullet between his eyes. >> they may get their wish. and we will learn more from jim sciutto. >> reporter: he has been the voice of some of isis' most brutal videos calm ruthless and distinct british accent. >> our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people. >> and now the uk authorities have identified the terrorist jihadi john as mohammad emmel wau zi a 26-year-old british national born in kuwait, but raised in london.

though they would not publicly discuss his identity they say he is a top terror target. >> in the mind of the president, he is ranked high, because he is responsible for the death of innocent americans. >> reporter: he is from a well off family, and earning a college degree in technology from the university of westminster, and until the travel to syria in 2012 enjoying the life of privilege. >> he was a diligent and hardworking lovely young man, and response pableibleresponsible, and polite and quiet, and everything that you would want a student to be. >> reporter: they never saw signs of a terrorist. >> he was a beautiful young man really.

he went to tanzania, a safari, a present from his parents. he was deported to the u.k. authorities suspecting his true intention to travel to somalia. in 2010, detained again by counterterrorism officials in britain. two years ago later, emwazi is believed to have traveled to syria where he joined isis. his friends claim mistreatment by british authorities set him on a path to terrorism. >> our entire national security strategy for the last 13 years

has only increased alienation, only increased people feeling like they don't belong. >> and jim sciutto joins us. now it seems like he was on a path already if authorities are correct. that's why he went to tanzania. u.k. authorities knew about this guy going back to 2009. hindsight i guess it's easy to say, but clearly, they didn't do enough. >> reporter: we saw this with the kouachi brothers in paris with the paris attacks. they had been on french authorities' radar. a lot of these potential recruits take steps that are worrisome but not enough to be sure to indicate that they're going to carry out jihad, join a group like isis. from just a perspective, you can't track and arrest everyone. two, from a legal perspective, oftentimes the first illegal step that these guys will do is try to hop on that plane to go to syria. we have that case with some of these brooklyn suspects just yesterday. that's when they were arrested, when they got on the plane. in this case, jihadi john got on the plane in 2012 and continues on the horrible path and last summer, he became the jihadi star appearing in the videos. >> it's got to be so frustrating for law enforcement and intelligence officials with connections with them who took him into custody from time to time but not enough to actually hold him. today, the director of national intelligence, james clapper, he gives new information about the number of americans who actually

tried to travel to syria. >> reporter: he did. he raised that number to 180 and keep in mind, so this figure, as you say, it's people who have either gone to syria and iraq successfully including the group such as isis or have tried to go, some of them killed there. so it's a broad number. it's an estimate, but the estimate has jumped. last year, that number was around 50. it creeped up to the 70s. it creeped up to 100. a short time ago, it was 150. it is growing and partly it's growing because more people are attracted and also growing, anderson, because they're making a better effort to keep track of these people, but, you know, that's a worrisome sign. it's not to the level you see in european countries, several hundred in the u.k. and in france, et cetera. but still, that's a significant number and that's already a difficult group of people for u.s. authorities to follow. >> yeah. jim sciutto, appreciate the update. thanks, jim. >> yeah. the killer in question grew up in a city in london that was a hot bed for radicalization before isis existed, something

maajid nawaz was in and now joining us, with former fbi counter terrorism official philip mudd. they've known for a while and keep it on the down low. now it's out there, does it that make easier or harder to capture him? >> i don't think capture is likely. first, get the intelligence not only where he is today but where he is tomorrow and second, take the risk of putting somebody -- i suspect over time, he will be identified and killed either by u.s. forces, a syrian striker by fight inging by extremist groups, and i cannot imagine despite what the white house says bringing him back for justice, he is ever going to be coming out of there. >> maajid, it's interesting. we've talked about and a lot of people focused in the past about radicalization and other things that lead to it, poverty, lack of opportunities, sense of humiliation. he wasn't poor.

he went to college, had a degree in computers. it seems like there's no boundaries anymore for somebody who actually may be attracted to this stuff. >> well, yes, anderson. i've written a piece for one of the national newspapers, "the guardian" comparing it to racism. racism can affect anyone whether they rare educated or not, and it is an idea that you can adopt regardless of the insecurities. and islamist is ideology which is the same. this man not only graduated from westminster in london but others who controlled the student union, and not just the islamic society, but the student union in that university were affiliated with my own former

organization organization the first group to the popularize the notion of re-establishing a caliphate. the idea of recreating an islamic state effects in a disproportionate way the highly educated born and raised in britain. >> what is the appeal though? you believe, what, it's personality traits or leading somebody to this in a case like him? >> probably. once they tried to work out whether he's british, kuwaiti or muslim, both. that combined with charismatic recruiters such as al baghdadi, the so-called caliph. and western born muslims to this ideology. >> phillip, if another country was interested, is the fact he's british, does that play in? >> i think theoretically, a country, can you imagine someone targeting a u.s. citizen with a drone strike and not telling us if it's a close ally? this is a pretty clear case though. if you look at somebody involved in terrorism and what we call in the business an imminent threat, not only involved in murder but

most likely involved in plots today, i dont't e though how you stand back and say, look i think that this the giuy is a citizen of a close alley, we won't take a shot. this guy is clearly over the bar. >> is it likely he's actually a high level or just happens to be the guy they picked to talk on camera because he's got the accent and able to speak english? >> i think this story is misleading. he's a target not because he's operational command. you would think, he's a big player. i would say, he's not my top tier target. the guys running the organization, training. that said, in the 15 years of this war, somebody with this magnetic appeal across the explosion of social media, you wouldn't have targeted this person 15 years ago. but because of the magnetic appeal and ability to reach out, he's got to be on the list. >> maajid, you're concerned about people having sympathy for this guy and almost make excuses for why he was radicalized because this group cage lays for

the british intelligence agency. >> yeah. i mean, look. i know the guy from cage. i went to university with him. these guy are islamist sympathizers. i have seen him spoke at a rally outside of the u.s. embassy in london alongside me supporting groups such as hezbollah, hamas. these guys wholly subscribe to the ideologies so it is no surprise that they have been spending the day on british media defending mohammed emwazi and in fact the spokesman for cage said that he was mohammed emwazi was actually a beautiful young man as he knew him, and then he actually shed a tear live on air, when he was reminiscing over this so-called

jihadi john, and yet didn't shed any tears for any of the victims of this beheaders. others that this man brutally murdered. showed no remorse for the deaths and no consideration for the family and this is typical of a half-truth narrative of playing the victim constantly and blaming foreign policy, blaming torture. i have opposed guantanamo bay and on the george bush jr. just because we oppose the invasion of iraq or guantanamo doesn't mean islam is the solution. this has to be debunked. >> maajid nawaz and phillip mudd, thank you. take you inside the terror group's empire and the way to counter that message. look at one of the latest propaganda videos destroying precious artifacts at a museum in mosul. why is this something to brag about? the answer says something about the interpretation of islam. y house... it's a full day for me, and i love it. but when i started having back pain my sister had to come help. i don't like asking for help.

i took tylenol but i had to take six pills to get through the day. so my daughter brought over some aleve. it's just two pills, all day! and now, i'm back! aleve. two pills. all day strong, all day long. and now introducing aleve pm for a better am. flo: hey, big guy. i heard you lost a close one today. look, jamie, maybe we weren't the lowest rate this time. but when you show people their progressive direct rate and our competitors' rates you can't win them all. the important part is, you helped them save. thanks, flo. okay, let's go get you an ice cream cone, champ. with sprinkles? sprinkles are for winners. i understand.

again, breaking news. canadian authorities saying at least four young people from quebec province left the country last month. the cbc reporting they now joined militants in syria. back in america, we learn how the case against three alleged isis reporters in brooklyn began. deborah feyerick saying it was after a post he allegedly wrote on a web site threatening to kill president obama.

the threat was brought to the attention of the secret service last summer. investigators say that all three men spent time online, apparently, becoming more radicalized. one official telling ""the new york times"" there's no indication that they were motivated by anything they heard at places of worship. that leads back to the machine that jihadi john was a part of. without a production film, more credit or publicity than something like that deserves, we want to briefly explore how they operate. our randi kaye investigates. >> reporter: you might think this is a commercial from the tourism board of canada. it's actually a video from isis posted on social media aimed at convincing why to be jihadis in syria. >> i'm your brother of islam in syria, and i come from canada. >> reporter: andre, a canadian convert, was the ultimate pitchman for isis until he was killed fighting for them.

but even that won't stop would-be extremists from searching out isis online. connecting in member-only chat rooms but is it that easy to contact isis online? >> when these wannabe isis say they're e-mailing, are they? >> well tashgs -- well they are e-mailing a coordinator or represent representative of isis. >> reporter: it's available at all sorts of languages including english. why aren't they shut down? >> some of them are hard to find. what are you going to do, shut down all of twitter or facebook? there's one called v contacte. if you're from uzbekistan or kazakhstan, you have the language, you have russian. you can easily link up with networks on here. >> reporter: and find somebody to go do jihad with? >> sure. >> reporter: it's that simple? >> yeah. >> reporter: in fact, using this uzbekistan web site.

but this is a group that beheads people and crucifies others and subju gates others. so what is wrong with it? everything. >> it's designed to attract jihadis because they show people going after, yazidis, christians, whatever. >> reporter: even more frightening? hooking up on social media may mean these wannabe extremists, will not have to leave their home. they will be assigned deadly tasks from afar. >> stay where you are. we're radicalize you and then teach you how to build a fertilizer bomb in your facebook. >> reporter: a dangerous directive from a group whose popularity is only growing

online. randi kaye, cnn, new york. >> we want to dig a little deeper now to the means and methods of radicalization. we are joined by "atlantic" contributor graeme wood who recently posted "what isis really want ss." what attracts some people to isis, you write that western recruits are, quote, ready to give up everything at home for a shot at paradise in the worst place on earth. explain that. what is that appeal? >> these people were trying to leave the united states. they may have been looking for ways to attack the united states, but they really wanted to go to syria in the islamic state, because they think that to fulfill their destiny as muslims and to really live the religion they believe they have to be in an islamic state. we don't know what the motivations of these particular people were, but that is why they usually go there. >> how do you begin to compete

with that organization that's promising promising, and you call it kind of a death cult and promise nothing less than paradise to the people they recruit? >> i think you have to acknowledge exactly what is being offered. and then show it's not actually there. if they think they have a utopia that they're going to, you can show them that actually, there's a place full of inequity, no better at providing for citizens and allowing to live a nice pious life. i think you've got distance toward making that propaganda not so attractive. >> the video isis released today of militants destroying artifacts in the mosul museum in iraq i'm reminded of the taliban destroy inging the muslim statues of buddha back in 2001.

>> it gets to the heart of what this movement is. an attempt to get rid of all competing civilizations and cultures. when they do control a place like mosul, i am surprised it took them this long to attack the statues with hammers. so much in mosul they could go after and already destroyed mosques. they've already destroyed shrines. they want to purify everything around them, so it only follows the particular variety of islam that they follow. >> michael weiss who we sauw in randi's piece, he said that the they destroy them op camera and they sell a lot of them off camera. we've been hearing for month the trade in antiquities is a source of income. >> yes. they are certainly very active in sale of antiquities. things reach the market that have come through their ends. essentially, they have no value for these things at all. they would love to trade them for cash. they would also be happy to pulverize them and turn them into dust. >> the article you wrote for the atlantic, really fascinating, i encourage people to read it. isis is very islamic and i

wonder what kind of a response you got to that. when you got on the program, you were talking about how many people in the muslim world say, they're unislamic. they're defiling the religion of islam, but you're saying, according to the isis interpretation, they're following very strict codes and teachings from way back. >> yeah. there's the distinction i would draw between being islamic and the right variety of islam. almost all muslims say they practice the wrong islam but the traditions are the same islamic texts that are recognized as holy by all sunnis, certainly, and we're talking about the koran, the sayings of the prophet and the actions after the prophet. it's a selected reading of the texts and one, again, almost all muslims reject. but it's definitely an islamic tradition just as the christian

tradition. just as the branch davidians are christians. >> one thing you wrote about, they're isolating and focusing on the violent text and teachings as opposed to non-violent ones. >> yeah. that's right. they are really looking into this tradition and they're definitely finding ways to emphasize things like crucifixion, like beheading of the apostates. they are looking for any way but not making these things up is the main point i'm trying to make. there are texts they look to, selectively reading but within the islamic tradition. >> graeme wood, appreciate you being with us. up next, more breaking news, could not come at a worse time. given all you just heard about growing influence, department of homeland security is about to run out of money. congress just punted again on funding. we will go to washington to try

some breaking news on top of all the isis development with news at least four young canadians have joined syrian militants and director of national intelligence james clapper said last year was the worst on record for terrorism. congress has not gotten that message with less than a day and a half until the department of homeland security runs out of money, lawmakers have given up for the night. dana bash from washington. does it look like it will shut down? >> reporter: probably not. it looks like tomorrow, hours before the deadline comes for it to actually do that and shut down, the house is going to pass a stopgap measure to keep it funded for about three weeks, and the senate is probably going to do the same. i share some caution that democrats in the house are the leadership i'm told say we're done with kicking the can down the road. we want to fully fund this department. it's incredibly important. if enough democrats oppose it and some conservatives who would

never vote for a spending bill anyway, this could be in big trouble but looks like that's the plan to barely keep it going. >> john boehner was asked about the house's next move and had kind of an interesting response. i just want to show that. >> it's going to be a clean dhs funding bill. have you had this discussion? >> we make decisions, i'll let you know. >> i don't know what to make of it. >> let me translate. i'll be the boehner whisperer. he was not trying to kiss that reporter. he was saying, kiss my you know what because this was the umpteenth question that he refused to answer. legitimate questions we were all trying to. look, the department is running out of money. you're not saying your next move and simply wouldn't answer. that was his way of doing so, it was kind of vintage boehner, but in the vacuum not knowing what that was, it looked odd. >> all the time of things

changing in capitol hill, probably people rolling their eyes, congress not doing it again. >> reporter: they should be. they absolutely should be. it's part of the reason why in the senate this week, you saw the new republican majority back down. i mean, they caved politically because in making the decision between standing up for what conservatives want them to do, which is fight the president's policy every step of the way or showing that they can govern, mitch mcconnell and his colleagues said we got to show we can govern. it's too early out of the gate to do otherwise but house republicans have a completely different situation, different dynamic. so they're still fighting the fights we were reporting on last year and the year before saying we've got to, you know, stick to our guns. that's why we still have the same fights despite the fact it's complete republican control in the congress. >> dana, thanks very much. let's get the latest in other stories we're following. amara walker has a "360" news

and business report. >> hi. an argentine judge accused president kristina fernandez covering up iran's involvement in a buenos aires bombing. there was surveillance video showing the nfl star the and his friend carlos ortiz buying gum and cigars at a gas station shortly before odin lloyd was killed. the gum in the white towel draped around ortiz's neck link the men to the crime. calvin klein gown made a splash but now been stolen. a thief lifted it from her hotel room. the pearls alone are estimated to be worth $150,000. and in sun city, arizona, an impromptu rodeo. something you don't see everyday, i can promise you that.

chasing two wily llamas. they broke loose from an assistive living facility where they are used for therapy, and they got out and made a run for it. as you can see shgs, they managed to evade capture for about an hour. some quick lasso action from john rhone led to the capture. the other llama captured definitely, not the kind of thing you see everyday. >> it was amazing to see the guy in the back of the pickup truck. he was really good. >> you don't really see that, ropers lassoing a llama from the back of a truck. that is quite interesting. >> thank you very much. just ahead, at any moment, jodie arias will get her fate. it's been a long journey. we'll have the latest on deliberations and why it's taken so long to get to this point.

are fuzzy. believe this, we understand. arias faces possible death sentence for killing former boyfriend, travis alexander. her first trial was broadcast live and the gristled detal sils nearly two years ago. tonight, jean casarez has the latest but first reminds how she got here. >> reporter: the jodi arias murder trial first began in january 2013. >> this is not a case of who done it. the person who done it, the person who committed this killing sits in court today. it's the defendant, jodi ann arias. >> throughout the trial, you'll learn more about jodi arias, much more about jodi. you'll find she's an articulate bright young woman who is a very talented artist and photographer. but most of all, what you'll learn is that jodi loved travis. >> reporter: arias was accused

of stabbing her ex-boyfriend, travis alexander, 20 times and shooting him in the head. the premeditated crime, juan martinez said, came after arias realized that alexander would not marry her. the two had a volatile relationship and much came before the jury. salacious audio from sex tapes. >> remember the first time you and i grinded? >> reporter: journal entries by arias. >> i wish that suicide was a way out, but it is no escape. >> reporter: jodi herself taking the stand for more than two weeks. >> there's a lot of that day that i don't remember. there are a lot of gaps. i don't remember the poses of the pictures. i remember them now that i've seen the pictures, but i didn't remember them until i saw them. i remember taking pictures, i just don't remember the pictures themselves even though we looked at them. and now i see them, i remember them. >> what factors influence your having a memory problem?

>> usually when men like you are screaming at me or travis doing the same. >> that affects your memory? >> it does, makes my brain scramble. >> reporter: driving from california to alexander's home in arizona bringing with her, her grandfather's gun. after sexcapades caught on camera, ariana martinez said went in for the kill. >> so get the knife. and she took the knife and stabbed. >> reporter: the defense said arias was emotionally and physically abused by alexander and when she couldn't take it any longer, fought back. four months after the trial began, arias was convicted of first-degree murder. >> we the jury duly impanelled and sworn and action upon our oath find the defendant sd count one first-degree murder guilty.

>> reporter: but the jury deadlocked on the second phase. should jodi arias live or die for her crime? >> jean, we just got word that the jury left for the weekend. >> reporter: they have and they're not going to deliberate on friday. we were waiting all day to see if there would be a verdict. there is not. now they have the weekend. but the day started this morning with the jury asking a question, can we have a list of all the exhibits? i mean, that really shows how serious there are and there are many exhibits. because this re-penalty phase began in october. this is the fourth month of it. and i do want to say and later, they brought a lot of food today including a crock pot, a male juror brought a crock pot, which i've never seen before but saying all that, this is the most judicial function we've had in this country. this is a penalty phase of life or death. they're deciding whether she lives or she dies. and it will take a lot of deliberation. it should, a phase like this. >> no doubt.

jean, thanks very much. appreciate it. just ahead, the misery the latest winter storm left in the wake across the south and gary tuchman who's been on an ice breaker in the frozen lakes. we talked to him last night and we'll show you what they're up against tonight and how much progress they're making. sunday dinners at my house... it's a full day for me, and i love it. but when i started having back pain my sister had to come help. i don't like asking for help. i took tylenol but i had to take six pills to get through the day.

so my daughter brought over some aleve. it's just two pills, all day! and now, i'm back! aleve. two pills. all day strong, all day long. and now introducing aleve pm for a better am.

while i was taking xarelto®, i still had to stop racing, but i didn't have to deal with that blood monitoring routine. >>don't stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. while taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases, may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of dvt and pe, with no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for me. ask your doctor about xarelto® today.

70% was frozen last year and a central ship traffic that can't move. the hollyhock one of nine u.s. coast guard vessels that cleared the way. the first 30 minutes are quiet because we haven't hit the ice but that's going to change eminently. a two-day mission has now begun to help escort two canadian commercial cargo vessels back to their home port in ontario. the vessels are still hours away from us as we travel at 10 knots. u.s. and canadian coast guard work for both countries. justin is the commander officer of the hollyhock. >> we use the weight of the ship where the front of the ship or bow is made to ride up on the ice and the weight crushes down to break the ice. >> reporter: after being on the ship for a while, you tend to

forget you're on a lake. you feel like you're on a glacier. we are being told that at this point of lake huron, we are on about 8 inches of snow on top of the foot of ice. the ship is constantly vibrating. it creates the feeling of being in a rock tumbler. the sun goes down. nine falls. another day begins, and then we see the ships from afar. the ice breaking mission is about to pay its dividends. the big ship named the algo steel. >> as you know sir, we will have to wait and see as the day progresses. from what we have seen yesterday evening into this morning, i'm fairly confident that we'll be able to get you down through the cut. they had just come down from a

delivery to chicago. >> the day progresses, from what we saw yesterday evening into this morning, i'm fairly confident we'll be able to get you down through the cut. >> reporter: the algo steel is one of the quicker wins. the ship that transported a shipment of salt to the chicago area. the henry jackman also able to bring salt to northern illinois. after the delivery headed up north to lake michigan and south on lake huron before getting stuck. this coast guard vessel has literally created a watery path blazing a trail so jackman can follow us and get home safely. a short time after, it got stuck. hollyhock had to go back. but now safe. two of 367 ships the hollyhock assisted this winter and aiding $300 million worth of cargo. >> knowing what we can do to assist the movement of the commercial vessels and the impact to our economy, to keep the products moving, to keep the power plants open, to keep these industrial productions running, it's very satisfying feeling. >> gary joins us now. it's cool. i had no idea these ice breakers are out there in weather like this. it's admirable stuff they're doing.

why did that ship get stuck though? did they not go directly behind the hollyhock? >> that commonly happens. one ice breaker, one in front and one in back. sometimes they get stuck. it's not out of the ordinary. they got it working and about 15 minutes away from the end of a 27 hour mission. the two canadian vessels on the canadian side, and we will pull in on the michigan side of the united states. and the 45 crew members on this vessel will get a day off tomorrow before beginning another multi-day mission on saturday. >> gary, thank you very much. i know you've been working really hard out there and not easy. i hope you get a couple days off. maybe a cocoa or a jug of wine or something. and now we will take you to the far corners of the world. the island nation in the pacific to get incredibly close to an

he's out there. there's a guy out there whose making a name for himself in a sport where your name and maybe a number are what define you. somewhere in that pack is a driver that can intimidate the intimidator. a guy that can take the king 7 and make it 8. heck. maybe even 9. make no mistake about it. they're out there. i guarantee it. welcome to the nascar xfinity series. well, this week, don't miss the debut of cnn's new series "the wonder list." bill tell the untold story of extraordinary people, places, and cultures. first episode, they take us to an island nation in the south pacific where you can get extremely close to a live volcano. it's amazing. take a look.

>> behold mount yasz, one of the most accessible live volcanoes anywhere in the world. >> it's based around the daily and nightly eruptions, occasionally we hear now walking into the heavens. nd then find a moon scape. as you get closer, hear these percussive booms and then just stand here.

>> that is cool. bill weir join me now. the visuals, everything about it. explain the idea behind it. you're really traveling to a lot of incredibly remote places. >> the idea was that i i turned to my 10-year-old girl and one day she will be my age in 2050 and will there still be wild tigers in india? how many species will go extinct? for this episode, if there's still a hawaii without hotels out there, a bali before bird joints and we saw this amazing place that was such a great test study in values. you know, some tribes can't wait for tourists to arrive. they want hotels on their islands. they're willing to give up their lives as fishermen. others like the tribe on the volcano doesn't want part of the

modern world. they worship as a god and think trudging up there is disrespectful. and then low lying islands. so they worry about climate change as well but fascinating people and we got to these places. in the middle of nowhere, the cell phone signal was stronger. than in manhattan. >> they're beautiful images. you had a small hardy crew. were you using drones? >> we used a drone. we didn't use them much in the show because it's difficult to use in many countries because it's so disorganized in regulations. but in thanawasu, it was perfect for the volcano. we had a very small crew, and we had way too much gear. i was checking in -- >> he never carries any gear. >> the moment i turned up, i

turned up, and just all of these cases. this was the start. you didn't quite realize. we had to get it on a ferry. and to get to the volcano. and it was up, like five flights of stairs. >> 17 bags. but i had been a fan of a camera nerd. phillip is generous with his knowledge on the web site. >> i see you with the camera too. >> i took thousands of still photos and learned a lot from him. but i said, i want your look. i want to capture these amazing places in the most cinematic way possible. >> you get a sense of how quickly the world is changing. >> everywhere you go. you can hear from a climatologist the alps, the glaciers are melting in the alps, but then you go to the fishermen in banawatsue and it

makes you realize how all of our little decisions in our lives add up to big seismic changes. >> it looks incredible. i'm so excited to see it. great to have you back. phillip, thank you. congratulations. incredible work. "the wonder list" debuting on sunday at 10:00 p.m. that does it for us. mmm. lunchtime. how are those chips? tasty, right? ever think about what they come in? no? it's called a bag. you're going to throw that bag away, right? ever think about where it goes? me neither. it's estimated every american grows out about 7 pounds of garbage a day and average of 102 tons over the course of a lifetime and that's just us. where does it go, when we throw something away, where is "away"? this week, i'm going to
