internet essentials from comcast. helping to bridge the digital divide. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com ambush mystery. prosecutors release new details in the brutal murder of a sheriff's deputy. president obama's dire warning on the dangers of climate change. >> and the jokes go viral. kanye west announces his plan to run for president. we want to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. thank you for be being with us, i'm zain asher. >> i'm john vause, "cnn newsroom" begins right now. and we will start with new details on the ambush and murder

of a share ever's deputy in the u.s. state of texas. the district attorney says deputy darren go forth was shot 15 times. >> now even though officials say that miles is cooperating with police, they still do not know what his motive was. we're also learning that miles has a history of mental illness and was once found too mentally incompetent to stand trial. here's our ed lavandera with more. >> reporter: we've learned that in october of 2012, shannon miles was arrested and criminally charged of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, but i was found mentally incompetent to stand trial and sent to a state mental hospital for six months. this comes after prosecutors detailed in the most excruciating way some of the details of how this murder

unfolded. it was so quiet when shannon miles walked into the courtroom you could only hear the sound of the shackles around his ankles and waist. a show of force looking on as several sheriff's deputies stared down the man accused of killing their fellow officer. >> he unloaded the entire weapon into deputy goforth. >> reporter: they gave the details. >> he runs up behind deputy goforth and puts a gun to the back of his head and shoots. deputy goforth hits the ground, and then he continues to unload his gun, shooting repeatedly into the back of deputy goforth. >> reporter: the prosecutor says miles emptied all the rounds from his .40 caliber handgun, 15 shots in all, before walking to his truck and driving away from the scene. deputy goforth left dead in a pool of his own blood, shell

casings around him. on this spot now, a memorial of teddy bears and flowers has blossomed in deputy goforth's honor. the shell casings at the crime scene were linked to a hand gun found in miles' garage. investigators are trying to determine a motive for a shooting they describe as cold-blooded. but they believe he was targeted because he was wearing a uniform. >> we've heard black lives matter. all lives matter, deputies' lives matter too. >> reporter: according to miles' facebook page he bounced around various houston-area college, including the university where sandra bland was supposed to work. >> don't touch me, i'm not under arrest. >> reporter: bland's case garnered scrutiny when she was found dead in her cell after being arrested from a traffic stop.

all this happened miles down the road from where miles lives and where he allegedly shot officer goforth. we've learned that prosecutors have issued a subpoena for an area mental health hospital for the records of shannon miles. this comes as one of shannon miles' attorneys tells us that one of the first things they will do is order up a psychological evaluation of the murder suspect who faces the death pen it alty in this case. we want to shift gears now to politics. new polls show a shakeup when it comes to the front runners of both parties. now a lot could change in the next five months, but it seems as though donald trump has a little bit of competition. >> indeed he does. in fact, trump has lost his lead in the state of iowa, according to a new monmouth university poll. he's now tied with ben carson at 23%. trump had been leading the field

for the past month in iowa, the first state which votes for the republican nominee. >> and, as for democrats, you're seeing a similar preference for anti-establishment candidates. hillary clinton's closest rival, bernie sanders is gaining on her. >> joe johns has the latest on the democratic presidential field. >> that is not hillary clinton's position. >> reporter: bernie sanders ratcheting up his pressure. clinton still leads in iowa, but the trend is troubling. in may, clinton was at 57%. but since then, she's lost a staggering third of her support. >> this is going to be competitive. it should be competitive. it's only the presidency of the united states we're talking about. >> reporter: she's been called the inevitable nominee before and maintains she's always expected the race to heat up. >> we need a movement which takes on the economic and political establishment.

>> reporter: sanders' popularity only growing as he touts his progressive credentials and drawing a sharper contrast with the policy differences dividing the two candidates. >> i believe we should expand social security by lifting the cap on taxable income. that's not hillary clinton's position. i believe we've got to raise the minimum wage over a period of several years to $15 per hour. i voted against the war in iraq. hillary clinton voted for it. >> reporter: meanwhile, she is now pursuing a more aggressive approach to the e-mail controversy that has long-dogged her campaign. >> i know people have raised questions about my e-mail use as secretary of state, and i understand why. i get it. i never sent any classified material, nor received any marked classified. >> reporter: but the questions over her use of a private e mail server are sure to continue as the state department releases another batch of her e-mails tonight. democrats polled in iowa largely said cnn's use of e-mail didn't bother them.

but one sign of concern, those who support sanders said they felt more strongly about him than those who said they backed clinton. joe johns, cnn, washington. >> staying on hillary clinton now, the u.s. state department has released another 7,000 of hillary clinton's e-mails. a government official says that more than 100 of them had information that has since been classified. they were sent to a personal address on a private server that clinton used while she was secretary of state. now the state department says it has now released a quarter of clinton's e-mails from her four years as secretary of state. the u.s. president has issued a warning on climate change verging on apocalyptic. at the same time, he was sharply critical of those who deny human activity is warming the planet. >> mr. obama was speaking at an international conference in anchorage, alaska. this is part of a three-day visit to highlight the impact of

climate change, which he called the defining threat of the century. >> the point is that climate change is no longer some far-off problem. it is happening here. it is happening now. climate change is already disrupting our agriculture and ecosystems. our water and food supplies. our energy. our infrastructure. human health, human safety. now. today. and climate change is a trend that affects all trends. economic trends, security trends, everything will be impacted. and it becomes more dramatic with each passing year. >> now president obama is also making another bold move. he's renaming mt. mckinley, which is the tallest mountain in the united states. it's named after the 25th u.s. president, william mckinley, who's an ohio native.

ohio lawmakers are not happy about the name change, but mr. obama says he'll use executive authority to rename the mountain to its historic, native-american title, denali. now of course donald trump, as usual, did weigh in. he tweeted that if he's elected president, he will change it back. >> barack obama is the first sitting u.s. president to visit the alaskan arctic, a region where climate change is being felt more intensely than anywhere else in the world because it's warming at almost twice the global average. but alaska is also heavily dependent on oil revenue. victoria herman is the u.s. director of the arctic institute and joins us now from anchorage. thank you for being with us. you heard that speech by president obama, what didn't he say that you think he should have? >> i think one of the things

that he didn't address is the role of oil in alaska and renewables. he talked about the future and needing to act on climate change. but the fact is non-renewable sources are going to play a role in the immediate steps in between today and a renewable future. and he didn't really speak to what role oil would play in the decade to come. >> and with that in mind, the president did sign off about two weeks ago on those leases to drill for oil off the arctic coast. but many argue you can't really be serious about addressing the effects of climate change while allowing offshore drilling to continue. >> exactly. and i think what that debate is really missing is what you can do with oil being drilled in alaska and generally in the arctic. a lot of these permits have been established from the past five years, and there isn't really

much that president obama could have done to say no to them starting exploratory drilling this summer. what he could have done was create more stringent environmental regulations on them and ensure that whatever investments come from their revenue generated would be put into renewable resources. >> do you think most americans are simply unaware of the effects of climate change in alaska? it's one of those problems that people can't relate to until they're impacted in a major way? >> exactly. i think people in the lower 48 see climate change as something that will affect them in the future but don't see it as something that's having an immediate impact now, especially in alaska. entire towns need to be reloebtsed because of climate change. and hopefully, president obama's tour of the state will raise awareness in the lower 48 that climate change isn't a problem for tomorrow. it's a problem for today. >> the president will be there for three days. he'll make a lot of news. there will be a lot of photo opportunities. but it's often the case that the conversation simply fades away.

>> yes, but i, a lot of the rhetoric that was used today, and hopefully will continue to be used over the next three days, is the connection from what we're seeing in alaska to the climate negotiations in paris later this year. and the connection between those two will hopefully continue the conversation that the victims on the front lines of climate change today, that president obama will visit throughout the next three days should also be at those climate negotiations in paris as a reminder about the immediacy and the need for a solution. >> victoria herman with the u.s. director of the arctic institute. thank you for being with us. >> thanks for having me. >> and these issues will be the focus of cnn's two degrees initiative. leading up to that summit in paris that happens later in december. learn more at our website, cnn.com/two degrees. >> and we take you to

confirmation that the most important temple in syria has been completely destroyed by isis. i want to show you these images. this is the before image, right? this is the satellite image of the temple from last thursday. now initially, there were fears that the site was damaged, not destroyed by a recent bombing, but now the u.n. says that is simply not the case, and that this image, this is the after image, this shows you what is left of the historic site. now a short time ago, an art professor explained the temple's significance. >> because it's one of the best-preserved temples of the ancient world. it was dedicated in a.d. 32 when jesus may have still been walking the earth. it was used as a christian church after antiquity and then as a mosque until the 1920s. the so it's really an example of the type of religion that isis is seeking to destroy.

>> last week isis posted photos of the destruction of another historic temple in palmyra. we'll have more on political divisions across europe as they struggle to find some kind of solution to this crisis. also ahead, a vote on part of a peace deal leads to violence and clashes in ukraine, just ahead. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪

welcome back, everybody. you're watching "cnn newsroom." we go now to europe's migrant crisis. after days of waiting in makeshift shelters at a train station in hungary, hundreds have made it into austria and into germany. >> and on a sudden change of policy on monday, authorities let migrants buy tickets and board trains for the west.

many are still in budapest waiting to leave. >> germany is the favorite destination. the country has already pledged to take in thousands of asylum speakers. >> we spoke with some refugees who managed to make it to munich. >> reporter: after a long and very difficult journey through much of europe, many of the refugees are now making it to here, this is munich's central station. and germany is, of course, one of the plain places that many of the refugees want to go. most of them have endured a very, very difficult travel, going first through turkey, then through greece, macedonia. many of them had a very difficult time in hurnch hungar. now some of them are coming here to germany and are talking about some of the things that they've endured along the way. >> i passed in turkey and in greece. and in macedonia. serbia.

bulgaria, eaustria, then here. it's cost us about 2,000 or 3,000. >> reporter: for many of the people coming here, it's been quite confusing as to what exactly the regulations are here in the european union. many had to be in hungary for a very long time. they thought they had to ally for asylum in hungary. some were pulled offer trains in austria and then were taken to refugee shelters there. now the ones coming here to germany from munich, when they arrived here are being checked by police officers that are here at the train station and then many of them will be taken to shelter and hopefully to safety. fred pleitgen, cnn, munich, germany. >> at the center of this is a dublin regulation. they must apply until they are approved. >> it's a challenge for

countries like italy and greece. italy's foreign minister tells cnn the dublin regulation is out of date. >> the so-called dublin regulation was made 25 years ago. apartment situation was quite different. now we have a huge phenomenon of migration. and we will have this phenomenon for the next 10 to 20 years. >> the migrant crisis is so unprecedented leaders in the european union are struggling to find some common ground to solve it. atika shubert now looks at the divisions. >> reporter: as the walls go up to keep migrants out, so, too, political divisions are mounting across the european union. hungary's decision to erect razor wire condemned by france.

>> translator: hungary is part of europe that has values. and we don't respect those values by putting up fences we wouldn't even use for animals. >> reporter: they have defended the move saying they have the obligation to protect what is essentially the european border, fences doing little to keep migrants from taking ever-desperate measures to reach sanctuary. >> our view on the wall building is a roundabout subsidy to the smugglers. if you create a barrier, they'll just charge the people they're transporting more money to get around that barrier. >> reporter: to that end, austria has now introduced new security checks along its borders, after 71 dead migrants were discovered in an lorry last week. >> a smuggler used a normal way in, usually transporting seven

persons. but there were 12 persons in it. including three little children. >> reporter: an unprecedented number of migrants continue to reach eu borders. germany alone expects to receive four times as many asylum seekers this year, which has led to violent protests. [ shouting ] >> reporter: angela merkle has called for tolerance as more migrants are expected to arrive. >> translator: that will be a central challenge, not only for days or months, but for a long period of time. and that's why it's important that while we are saying that german efficiency is great, what we need now is german flexibility. >> reporter: the french prime minister also made a show of tackling the crisis on monday announcing a new migrant camp. calling for a unified stance that they are under increasing

pressure to find when they meet for emergency talks on september 14. atika shubert, cnn. deadly violence in ukraine on monday has ukrainian nationalists clashing with riot police. >> they erupted outside parliament after lawmakers voted to give great you are autonomy to areas in the eastern area of the country. there are new moves by the u.s. to bolster forces in the region. >> reporter: violence on the streets of the ukrainian capital kiev now turning deadly. a grenade thrown from the crowd killing one soldier, injuring several others. these street battles pit ukrainian nationalists against the ukrainian parliament, who just approved giving greater autonomy to the eastern area of the country now controlled by russian separatists.

they were scolded for attacking ukraine over russia. >> translator: it is very sad that some members of the parliamentary coalition attacked the supreme commander in chief of their own country instead of the external enemy. >> reporter: russia has strengthened its hold on the east and the war has raged on, with more than 6,000 killed since april of last year. two cease-fire agreements in tatters. >> we call on all ukrainians, no matter their affiliation or organization to respect law & order. >> reporter: nato allies worry they could be russia's next target. the u.s. military is bolstering its forces in the region, sending predator drones to latvia over the weekend. and f-22s to germany late last woke. all part of an effort to reassure allies that the u.s. will deter further aggression by

russian president vladimir putin. >> it seems that's the direction he wants to take it, towards more confrontation, and we're simply going to have to check that. >> reporter: the deployment of those drones to latvia is a temporary rotation, similar to other u.s. military moves in the region, this part of an effort to balance a show of force against avoiding antagonizing russia, the next stop for those raptors from germany is poland, another nervous eastern european and nato ally. jim sciutto, cnn, washington. when we come back here on "cnn newsroom," what could be the next point of contention between russia and the west. we'll look at moscow's ambitions in the arctic. and returning to normal in one south korean village. life along the dmz, just ahead. verizon now has one simple plan. just pick a size. small, medium, large and extra large.

welcome back, everyone. you're watching "cnn newsroom." i'm zain asher. >> and i'm john vause. let's check the headlines this hour. hundreds of arrived in germany after waiting for days in a hungarian train station. many more migrants are still in budapest waiting to leave. new satellite photos show one of syria's most important anshechbts structures completely destroyed by isis. the temple of bell was the center of ancient life for more than 2,000 years. now it's the latest piece of history destroyed by militants who routinely destroy

antiquities. it's too early to say whether the debris found on an island belong to mh 370. but officials have said mh 370 is the world's only missing boeing 777. and that part is actually from a 777 aircraft. the u.s. state department has released another batch of hillary clinton's e-mails. over 100 of the e-mails had information that was later classified. she has faced months of criticism for using her personal e-mail and server during her time as secretary. and global affairs correspondent welcomes us. one of the questions i have is when it comes to the issue of what is classified. what is not classified. the state department went to great lengths to point out that

for information to be classified, it's not black and white, it's not an exact science. most people would think it's either classified or not, and how can you make something retro actively classified? >> at the time it was sent it wasn't marked classified, wasn't identified classified. but don't forget, these release of these e-mails are part of what we call a foia, freedom of information act, which was a lawsuit that was brought against the state department to make them public. so, while the information wasn't classified at the time, and it wasn't needed to be in a classified system, we understand the vast majority of them have been retroactively classified, because they need to be released to the public. and so there's information that needs to be redacted in there. so we understand the vast majority of them are the lowest level of classification, but still, it's sensitive material that was being discussed, and that's why the state department and other agencies now are classifying some of that information.

>> and does this explain why secretary clinton has sort of changed her wording on this in march, she said there was nothing classified in her e-mails, now she's saying nothing was marked classified. >> she argues that she didn't know she was talking about classified material. and she's saying it wasn't classified at the time. now, actually, it is classified, because it's been marked as such and identified as such. so this is really a gray area. and certainly, this stuff was sensitive. we're talking about some e-mail that had information about sources and methods or information about movement of u.s. personnel. and so, it's sensitive material. but the question is, did it need to be put on a classified system. and the state department is arguing no. and that's what secretary clinton is arguing. >> thanks for walking us through some of those explanations. we appreciate it. >> anytime. u.s. president obama is

making an urgent call to all nations to do something now about climate change. the president spoke monday night during an international conference on climate change in anchorage, alaska, and he had some harsh words for those who are not taking it seriously enough. >> it is wonderful to be -- any so-called leader who does not take this seriously or treats it like a joke is not fit to lead. on this issue of all issues, there is such a thing as being too late. that moment is almost upon us. that's why we're here today. it will not be easy. there are hard questions to answer. i am not trying to suggest that there are not going to be difficult transitions that we all have to make. but, if we unite our highest

aspirations, if we make our best efforts to protect this planet for future generations, we can solve this problem. >> president obama there just a little earlier delivering what is considered a message of hope and fear. >> right. >> and, as the planet warms, it has an increased military presence of russia. >> as matthew chance reports, conflicts over sovereignty and territorial claims could be on the horizon. >> reporter: on state-controlled television, russia projecting its power into the arctic. in recent months, the kremlin has staged some of its biggest-ever military exercises in the region, deploying a newly created arctic brigade, raising concerns this could be the next

frigid flash point in its standoff with the west. you know the kremlin's ambitions fewer than this man. >> translator: it's our home. the arctic is russia's home. lots of our regions are up there. we are the arctic country. we're in favor of international cooperation, but, of course, we care about russia's security too. >> reporter: security and resources, along with the other northern countries with arctic territories, including the united states. russia is acutely aware of the vast potential beneath the melting ice. up to a quarter of the world's undiscovered oil and gas, but also the lucrative new trade routes opening up as the polar

icecap recedes. >> reporter: it was he who led an exploration to the seabed in 2007 to stake the country's claim to a vast sway of polar territory. in recent weeks, russia has resubmitted to the u.n. its claim of sovereignty, the issue has struck a nationalist chordr. how far will russia go to enforce its claim? there have been big military maneuvers in the arctic region. is this a region where you see the potential for conflict in the future? >> translator: no. no. no. there shouldn't be any conflicts in the arctic. there's a mutual understanding in the international community that is developing fast, and i believe will develop even further. >> reporter: but protection of its arctic interests is emerging as a major kremlin theme, one which could easily draw russia

and its arctic neighbors into conflict. matthew chance, cnn, moscow. and we have some unusual weather in the tropics, with multiple hurricanes, including you've got hurricane fred going across the cape verde islands. >> pedram javaheri joins us. we've got all this unusual weather, record rainfall and record droughts. again, we come back to the idea that maybe something's changing with the climate. >> we were just talking about their during this last story, right? just looking in the past 15 years, we have 14 of the hottest years on record. >> i doesn't know whdon't know . >> some of it has to do with the pretty potent el nino right now. so not all of it is climate change, but a lot of it could be attribute to it as well.

take a look at this. this is the global temperature so far into 2015. and the areas in red show you near record temperatures. the areas in blue show near record cold temperatures. you have a few of those scattered about the u.s., parts of canada. well into russia, scandinavia getting the cool territory. but beyond that, the vast majority of our planet, no matter where you're watching from would be above normal temperatures. finally, the past seven months have set the records in 2005. and the strengthening el nino pattern, a historic trio of hurricanes at one.recei point receiving major hurricane status 15 storms in the katz gore four

or five. we have one behind it as a category four. the good news, when you take a look at activity in the tropical realm, across the pacific ocean, typically, el nino has a lot to do would it. the winds weaken, the warmer temperature, the rise in the ocean there, when it comes to rising air leads to convective thunderstorms, so that could be attributed to el nino, but look at what's happening with hurricane fred. almost every hurricane we see in the united states forms from the african continent. they exit and the winds converge across portions of the equatorial region. but hurricane fred is the first since 1892 that formed immediately after the african coastline, the storm has now downgraded a little bit, and it's going to be a fish storm. so it's not going to impact anyone after the cape verde islands. but when you're having a weather

segment almost every single day, and i can say we've never seen this since 120 years ago in recorded history, the theme becomes a little obvious. >> and it's getting more and more frequent, is that what you're noticing? >> that's what i'm noticing. good job security. >> thanks. coming up next, they faced the threat of war just days ago. up next, a look at life for villagers on the edge of the world's most militarized border. s expert from at&t? yeah, give me a problem and i've got the solution. well, we have 30 years of customer records. our cloud can keep them safe and accessible anywhere. my drivers don't have time to fill out forms. tablets. keep it all digital. we're looking to double our deliveries. our fleet apps will find the fastest route. oh, and your boysenberry apple scones smell about done. ahh, you're good. i like to bake. add new business services with at&t and get up to $500 in total savings.

we start this hour with u.s. politics. the state department has released another 7,000 of hillary clinton's e-mails and more than 100 of them had information which has since then classified. these e-mails are from her four years as secretary of state, including mundane details like scheduling. there are also requests for updates on israel and other regions. >> now clinton has been criticized for using a personal e-mail address and a plieft server while she was secretary of state. but the e-mail controversy isn't the only issue for her campaign. a new poll shows her top rival, bernie sanders gaining ground in iowa. he is now just seven points behind in the key early nominating state. >> and, for the first time in weeks, republican presidential candidate donald trump is not leading the field in iowa. >> yes, a new poll shows a dramatic surge for one of his rivals. here's our dana bash with more.

>> reporter: donald trump is now getting a run for his money in iowa by another non-politician. >> thank you very much. >> reporter: ben carson, a new poll has the pediatric neurosurgeon at 23%. neck in neck with the billionaire who had been uncharacterly easy on carson. >> he's nice. i cannot hit him. >> reporter: and even more evidence that voters are desperate for a political outsider. behind trump and carson in this new poll is former ceo carly fiorina at 10%. none of the three has ever been in elected office. fourth, ted cruz, freshman senator who appeals as an outsider. and scott walker. >> the only thing constant is trump. >> reporter: but it is still trump leading the discussion, now setting his sights on huma abedin, questioning her judgment in be being married to anthony wiener, who resigned from

refugees have reached their final destination in their journey to western europe. so hours after boarding a train in hungary, refugees arrived in the german city of munich where others made it into austria. >> authorities let syria and iraqi refugees buy tickets and board trains headed west from hungary, our arwa damon was there. >> reporter: they are very excited, because they've waited so long to get on this train. now it's overpacked, overcrowded. they say that there's people that haven't reserved tickets. people are still asking if they can travel with just their syrian i.d. what we've been told here is that yes, they should be able to make it and get on these trains. the reason why everyone is in such a panic to cram on the train and get out of here is there is this fear amongst all

that this opportunity that they have to actually be able to leave might go away very, very quickly. and no one wants to get stuck here anymore. >> and dozens more migrants are actually still in budapest right now waiting to leave. >> senior international correspondent fred pleitgen spoke to some refugees who made it to munich. >> reporter: after a long and very difficult journey through much of europe. many of the refugees are now making it to here. this is munich's central station and germany is of course one of the man places that many refugees want to go. most of them have endured a very, very difficult travel, first going through turkey, greece, macedonia. many had a difficult time in hungary and were stopped in austria for a long time. but now some of them are coming to germany and are talking about some of the things that they've endured along the way.

>> i first in turkey, and in greece. and in macedonia. serbia. bulgaria. austria, then here. it's cost us about 2,000 euro or 3,000. >> reporter: and for many of the people who are coming here, it's also been quite confusing as to what exactly the regulations are here in the european union. many of them had to be in hungary for a long time. they thought they had to apply for asylum in hungary. some of them were pulled offer trains in austria and then were taken to refugee shelters there. the ones who are coming here to germany to munich, they are checked by police officers here at the train station, and many of them will be taken to shelter, and hopefully to safety. fred pleitgen, cnn, germany. at the center of the migrant crisis is an international agreement called the dublin regulation. so anyone seeking asylum must

apply for asylum in the eu country where they first arrived, and they have to remain there until their status is approved. >> the rule has left thousands of migrants trapped in greece and italy. angela merkle says a joint european approach is important to try and take the pressure off those countries. >> translator: if we are talking about the next big problem, namely refugees, there is a high level of agreement that the burden on italy must be reduced. we cannot say that italy must keep all of the refugees who arrive there just because they've come over the mediterranean. the dublin agreement no longer works in the way it once did, because the situation has changed. so, it will be important that all of us speak out for europe in solidarity. then we will make progress. >> many take refuge in europe are fleeing the war in syria. the syrian population has undergone some incredible

upheavals in the past four years. >> back in 2011, syria's population was estimated to be 22.4 million people. and since then, at least 7.6 million people have been internally displaced. that means they've fled their homes but stayed in the country. another 4 million have fled syria all together. most of them going to neighboring countries like lebanon, turkey and jordan. >> 250,000 syrians have been killed during the war. and that leaves just over 10 million syrians who are actually where they were four years ago when the war began. the temple baal was the center of life for nearly 2,000 years. now it is completely gone, destroyed by isis. >> initially they feared it had been damaged but not destroyed. now the u.n. says it is not the case. and the image you have now shows

what's left. later this hour we will hear from an art professor on why the temple was considered one of syria's most important antiquities. there are new details this hour in the ambush and murder of a sheriff's deputy in texas. deputy darren goforth was shot 15 times while filling the tank on his cruiser, shannon miles unloading his entire clip. >> so far officials say that even though miles is cooperating, they still do not know what his motive was. we're also learning that miles has a history of mental illness and was once found too mentally incompetent to stand trial. here's ed lavandera with more. >> reporter: we learned that in october of 2012, shannon miles, the man accused of murdering deputy darren goforth was arrested and criminally charged with assault with a deadly weapon. >> but instead of standing trial, he was found mentally incompetent to stand trial and san antonio a mental hospital

for six months. this comes as prosecutors detailed in the most excruciating way some of the details of how this murder unfolded. it was so quiet when shannon miles walked into the houston courtroom, you could only hear the sound of the shackles around his ankles and waist. a show of force looking on as fellow deputies stared down the man accused of gunning down their fellow officer. prosecutors gave the most detailed account yet of how he gunned down goforth as he was walking up to his patrol car at pump number eight. >> he puts a gun to the back of his head and shoots. deputy goforth hits the ground and he continues to unload his gun, shooting repeatedly into the back of deputy goforth. >> reporter: the prosecutor says he emptied all the rounds in his

gun, 15 shots in all, before walking back to his truck and driving off. on this spot now, a memorial of teddy bears and flowers has blossomed in deputy goforth's honor. the casings were matched to a gun found in miles' garage. the sheriff says deputy goforth was targeted because he wore a uniform. >> this rhetoric has gotten out of control. we've heard black lives matter, all lives matter. cops lives matter too. why don't we drop the qualifier and just say lives matter and take that to the bank. >> reporter: he bounced around various houston area colleges, including the university where sandra bland was supposed to work. >> don't touch my. i'm not under arrest.

>> reporter: bland's case garnered intense scrutiny when she was found dead in her jail cell after being arrested during a traffic stop. all of this happened a few miles down the road from where miles lived and where he allegedly shot and killed deputy goforth. it's becoming increasingly clear that mental health issues will take a greater role in this investigation. they have subpoenaed the mental health hospital for the records of miles. one of the first things the attorneys will do is order up a psychological evaluation for miles who face the death penalty in this case. the man convicted of murdering three people outside a jewish center in the u.s. was unapologetic after monday's verdict. even going so far as to give the nazi salute. >> we the jury find the defendant guilty of capital murder as charged in count one.

>> hiel. >> according to people who knew him, frazier glenn cross is openly anti-semitic. he claimed he was protecting the white race from jews. >> last year he fired outside a jewish center, killing three people, none of them jewish, killing a 14 year old and his grandfather. the penalty phase of the trial will start on tuesday. still breaking here on "cnn newsroom," president obama begins a conference on climate change. he ends up saying that the u.s. is ready to help solve the problem. the losing streak continues in asian markets. we'll look at how far they're dropping today. that's coming up. all: milk! milk! milk! milk! milk!

anchorage, alaska on monday, a three-day visit to highlight climate change, which he called the defining threat of the century. >> he was sharply critical of anyone who denies that human activity is warming up the planet. he also took responsibility for the role the u.s. plays in climate change. >> i've come here today as the leader of the world's largest economy and the second largest emitter to say that the united states recognizes our role in creating this problem. and we embrace our responsibility to help solve it. and i believe we can solve it. that's the good news. even if we cannot reverse the damage that we've already caused, we have the means. the scientific imagination and technological innovation to avoid irreparable harm. >> and we hear a lot about climate change and the damage it's causing the environment,

but one industry, a warming planet brings some pretty big advantages. >> the shipping industry sees new opportunities for routes through the arctic that save both time and money as well. but the journey is not without risk. here's our claire sebastion with more. >> reporter: in august 2013, the yong shank became the first chinese cargo ship to travel to europe through the northern arctic sea route, a route until recently was completely frozen over. melting sea ice in the arctic is opening up a new, tempting prospect for shipping companies, and this is why. the yong sheng's trip took 30 days. the same journey through the suez canal would take 48 days. the risks may still outweigh the saving. >> there's about 1,000 nautical miles that's saved by being able

to transit that. the problems are more of the practicality. when you go through the arctic, you're going through some of the least-charted ocean space on the globe of the earth. >> reporter: it's still early days for this freezing shortcut. just four ships used the northern sea route in 2010. by 2013, it was 71. last year, growth slowed slightly to 53. routes are haphazard today. yet scientists at the u.s. national academies of sciences predict that melting ice will open up more shipping opportunities by mid century. >> this is 2015. and this one's 2007. >> reporter: mckinzie funk traveled to research his book. wind fall. this year, on a mission to improve safety infrastructure in the region. >> i think it's still less than 1% of the traffic that goes through the sue z canal is goin

through the top of the world, through russia. so it's not a huge change, really in terms of where goods are going, but it's a glimpse of the future. >> reporter: freight vessels are not the only ones hoping to get a piece of this. the crystal serenity is launching its first voyage next summer. >> people understandably want to be there and experience it. and it's beautiful. >> reporter: beautiful, yet still risk ey for those hoping capitalize on this changing landscape. claire sebastian, new york. for more on the issues surrounding alaska and what it could mean for the entire planet, our meteorologist pid ram javaheri joins us live now. alaska has really been described as the poster child for climate change. you've got at least four villages that may need to be relocated because of rising water. >> you know the reason this is all happening, of course, at least the story coming out of alaska being the most severe,

guys is exactly what president obama touched on. when he talked about the temperatures. they went on across this part of the world in the past 50 years, they've increased on an annual basis at about 3-plus degrees. in the winter, about 6-plus degrees. and the forecast taking us 50 years out says a similar sort of trend is expected to continue with another 6 to 7 degrees increase. when you're talking about an impact in this region, it's not just for them, it's on a global scale. you take a look at alaska. and we'll take you to the lay of the land. about 80% is laid over by per ma frost. these are areas that have been there tens of thousands of years, and there's the active layer, where you have exposed grass and trees. and when these fires happen across portioning of alaska and the burning begins, you're releasing carbon trapped within these trees into the atmosphere.

but sometimes the fires get down to the duff layer. this is where you have decomposing twigs or needles, they release additional carbon into the atmosphere. and if the fires are strong enough, and they certainly are this year, you get the fires that burn into the mineral soil, and now you're talking about burning an area where now you're taking the insulation away from the landscape of alaska. so the long, summer days alaska is known for, all that sun essentially starts heating up the ground, you again melting the permafrost. and what's inside that is 30 times more destructive. and that's methane. 30 times more destructive than co 2 or carbon dioxide. it's a serious thing. and taking you back to this region and showing you what's transpiring, here's a picture of alaska. 80% coverage when it comes to the permafrost.

parts of this region, 2,000 feet layer depth of the permafrost. but whether you come down to central and southern alaska, there's a discontinuous section. we had about 750 large wildfires across alaska. notice the large majority of them right there in that discontinuous zone. so now you're making it darker, absorbing more of the sun's energy and releasing the methane. >> one thing feeds into the other, accelerates the process. and that's where we're at right now. >> absolutely. >> thanks, pedram. we have one more note on the environment and the incredible amount of garbage and the impact on seabirds. a new study says fewer than 10% of seabirds studied during the 1970s and '80s were found to have plastic in their stomachs. that number is now to 90% and is

expected to rise to 99% by 2050. okay, we turn now to asia where the market began heading south. and there's some new economic data that reflects china's shrinking productivity. all of that and more. let's go live to hong kong. we just got the pmi numbers measuring manufacturing activity. those numbers hit a three-year low. other markets specifically reacting to that or more so this idea that china may finally halt market intervention? >> reporter: we've already seen a pull back. we heard about those arrests yesterday, which kind of suggest that the government and china is trying to put the blame for all of this somewhere else. and a lot of it is questioning policies whether they are working. let's talk about these figures that came out. it's called the purchasing manager's index, sounds technical, but what we were

looking at were two numbers that showed us how the manufacturing sector is doing and how the service sector is doing. the official pmi came in at 49.7. so that is actually lower than the 50. now if this figure falls below 50, which was last month's figure. what it shows us -- and that's a separate index, the caixin pmi. what it showed us is output in manufacturing is slowing. now some people might think this is really worrying. let's not forget that china used to be this economic powerhouse. it used to folk on non-manufacturing, the service industry, making sure there is an economy in china that can sustain itself. so services is still a figure that is above 50. so if you look at the non-manufacturing pmi, it is still above 50. it came in at 53.4%. which is lower than last month's

53.9, but it does show that sector, that part of the economy which makes up 48.2% of the chinese economy is still growing. >> and china's of course, desperate to stabilize markets, especially before the world war ii celebration parade, celebrating victory of japan later on this week. manisha tank, thank you so much. we appreciate that. we'll take a break here on "cnn newsroom." when we come back, we'll have more on the 2,000-year-old temple destroyed by isis and why they decided to wash the national treasure offer the face of the earth. and ukrainian lawmakers take a vote and deadly violence erupts. ahead, we'll discuss the clashes in kiev.

you're watching "cnn newsroom." i'm zain asher. >> welcome back, everybody. i'm john vause. we'll check the headlines this hour. u.s. president obama is making alaska a focal point in his push against global warming. it was the start of a three-day trip to talk about climate change. he says melting glaciers are proof that alaska is feeling the effects. the u.s. state department has released another 7,000 of hillary clinton's e-mails from the time as america's top diplomat. more than 100 of them had information later marked classified. the candidate had been criticized for using her personal e-mail and server while s she was secretary.

hundreds of refugees have arrived in munich. they were allowed to buy tickets and board trains on monday. >> many more are still in budapest waiting to leave. and we're learning that a man accused of shooting a sheriff's deputy 15 times at a u.s. gas station has spent time in a mental hospital. officials say shannon miles was found mentally incompetent to stand trial in 2012 on felony assault charges. a prosecutor says miles ambushed darren goforth on monday while the deputy pumped gas. the temple bel is considered one of the most important of its century. isis has shown the world it is more than willing and capable of destroying priceless antiquities. aaron thompson is an assistant

professor of art crime. he joins us from new york. thank you for be being with us. in single words here, in sort of broad brush strokes, why is this temple so important? if it is completely destroyed, what have we lost? >> we've lost a great amount. this was one of the best-reserved temples of the ancient world. it was dedicated in a.d. 32 when jesus may have still been walking the earth. it was used as a christian church and then as a mosque until the 1920s. so it's really an example of the type of synchronism of religion that isis is seeking to destroy. >> that appears to be one of the motivations by isis, the ideological destrioying of history and the media savvy side of isis. >> they're incredibly media savvy. what they're doing is destroying on the western media's news cycle.

they're giving us rumors, teasers, then official confirmation and images and then just as the story dies down again they do it again. so they destroyed a temple last sunday. now this sunday they do it again. >> what's to be gained by isis. they are capable of carrying out these horrendous acts. >> this sends a very important propaganda message for isis. they're using the media to portray to potential recruits that the west is powerless to defend against isis, its destruction of things that are so important to us. so i think we really need to talk about how these destructions are not just something we can't defend against, but our vital sources of evidence that we're going to use that prosecute isis fighters for war crimes when the conflict is over. >> do you really think that members of isis who are burning people alive in cages and

decapitating coptic christians on beaches, do you think they're really worried about the possibility of war crime prosecution? >> i think there may be a difference between the level of people who are setting those matches and the many, many people who are helping them sell antiquities through the marketplace. so we have to tell those people that maybe all you're doing is transporting a statuette across the border, but you, too, are going to be as liable for crimes against humanity. >> some of the criticisms that we seem to get reporting, the acts of destruction, the international community pays far more attention to a destruction of an old building than we do to the hundreds of thousands of people who have died in this and we have our priorities wrong. >> i don't think we're reporting on these to the exclusion of reporting on the death, and they are very important. for example, this temple was a vital source of tourist income to the community, which is now going to be deprived. it is going to find it so much harder to recover from the conflict without this source of

income. >> erin thompson, assistant professor of art crime, we appreciate you being with us, thank you. >> thank you. we're going to take a quick break here on cnn. when we come back, one south korean village back from the brink. a look at life returning to routine along the demilitarized zone.

they withdrew as quickly as possible and left no stay-behind force. they created a vacuum. and the vacuum was filled by isis. >> the full interview on tuesday on ac 360. a protest in ukraine turned deadly after lawmakers voted to give rebel-held regions more autonomy. >> that is a provision of the minsk peace agreement. but the measure has a long way to go before final passage. >> reporter: video from outside ukraine's parliament shows huge crowds. you can hear a loud explosion. there is smoke and injured ukrainian security forces being carried from the scene. the ukrainian interior ministry says someone threw an explosive device. that blast killed at least one person, injured dozens. some critically. around 30 people have been arrested, including a person who is accused of throwing the explosive device. the people who made up the

protest crowd were largely supporters of the freedom party. a right-wing nationalist party that doesn't approve of the government making any concessions to pro-russian separatist forces. they would grant new rights of ah tautonomy to those eastern regions. it was a concession of the mivg agreement, a peace plan that was signed onto back in february. in this case, the law passed its first vote in ukraine's parliament, but it must be voted on again and must receive more support, at least 300 votes out of a potential 450. and that is by no means guaranteed. phil black, cnn, london. life is returning to normal in south korea, along the dmz.

it's been about a week since the forth and south pulled back from a military stand off that could have escalated into something more. >> for the members of a small village, it's all part of living with an ever-present threat from the north. >> reporter: at the very end of south korea sits a tiny farm town on the edge of the world's most heavily militarized border. nk north korea is only a few miles away. its threat of war becoming an act of war. a north korean military shell landed so close to this village the government ordered the 210 residents into two underground bunkers. south korea's military, usually hidden in their hills, readied for attack. the two koreas at the brink of battle. days later, a temporary truce in

place between the koreas, park and his wife returned to life at their store. it's a hard life. their shelves don't need to be stocked because no one's buying. the young, tired of life here, left. i hear you become immune to it. >> you don't think that north korea will hurt you? >> this last time was different, she explains. we have done the evacuation drills again and again. but this is the first time we have had to evacuate. >> this bomb shelter has a giant blast door. you can see how thick it is. we are a couple dozen feet under ground and it is solid concrete right above us. the government says this could withstand a direct hit from north korean artillery. the last time this town evacuated, they were in here for five days. >> i heard the north korean gunfire that day.

he led his town's evacuation. >> reporter: why stay here in this town? >> i'm not anxious and never thought of leaving he says calmly. i'm determined to protect my town. people in seoul ask me how do you live here if they are going to hit anything, it's going to be seoul. if there is another korean war, we'll all die. they just ignore how close the threat is. this border town can't. kyung lah, cnn, south korea. when we come back here on cnn you will hear from a 17-year-old girl who was promised a glamorous life but found herself branded and forced to sell sex instead. bp 64/40 sterilize sites. multiple foreign objects in the body. tweezers.

look at how some girls have been branded by traffickers and pimps. >> it is used to signify ownership. sara sidner spoke to a 17-year-old girl who was sold a dream that never came true. >> reporter: from her child like giggles and sunny disposition you'd never know the fear this teenager has lived in for years. but every time 17-year-old adriana looks into a mirror she has a mark to remind her. >> tell me about what is that tooed on your chest. >> this right here? >> yeah. >> i call it my war wound. it's -- the name is cream. and i got it when i was about 14 years old and he was one of my pimps. >> adriana said it started when

she was 13, rebelling and ran away from home. she went to a party and met a man who promised her a glamorous life. but she found out she had to work for him out here selling sex. what were you feeling at 13 years old and all of a sudden you're in the life of an adult? >> i felt awesome. i knew everything, no one couldn't tell anything. that's exactly what it was. >> what was he doing for you? >> nothing. he was selling me that dream. >> that dream has been sold to countless girls who also end up bearing the marks of ownership. these photos from the van nuys vice unit of the los angeles police department show just how prolific branding is. a trafficker's initials on a girlfriend's face. a nickname on her thighs, images

of moneybags, a blatant word on her neck, f you, pay me. and a bar code like in a grocery store. this l.a. captain noticed this five years ago. >> this is not only another way to control them and let them know you belong to me and let other pimps now, hey, this individual belongs to me. >> like property. >> exactly. this is no different than when you are i would mark our shirts or lunchbox or lunch for the day with our name in order to let everybody else know, hey, this is our property. >> for adriana, as the months tick by, the work grew increasingly grueling her trafficker demanding she make a certain amount of money. she worked day and night sometimes in life threatening situations. >> guns pulled on you?

>> yes. >> knives? >> i've gotten a few knives before. it's very scary. >> how do you live with that fear? >> you don't. you can't live with it. you kill yourself at night. that's what you do to live with that fear. >> what? >> you don't live with that type of fear. >> what do you do with it? >> you suppress it. >> pimps encourage girls to take drugs and get them hooked so they can work 24 hours a day. she refused and tried to disengage mentally. >> because i didn't do drugs i had to find a way of coping with this. it's very disgusting. it's nasty. you feel so uncomfortable. naturally you're going to be traumatized whether it's a gun to your head or knife to your belly or being raped or robbed or whatever it is. because you have been sold dreams an fallen in love over and over again and that's all

you're looking for, you get hurt a lot. because none of it is real. >> reporter: did you ever think when you were branded that it mirrors what they used to do to slaves? >> yes. i believe this is modern-day slavery, definitely. >> reporter: but she has so far decided to keep the brand right where it is and insisted on showing her face to let other girls see they don't have to live in shame. how do you go forward and live a different life? >> i don't know. >> still trying to figure it out? >> yes. >> adriana is working toward a high school diploma but the future is fuzzy because the life keeps pulling her back. >> a painful story but one that needs to be told.

>> she is only 17 years old. and you will hear from another survivor who is raising money to help other victims who want their brandings to be covered up for good. that will be this time tomorrow. >> that does it for us at this hour, i'm zain asher. >> i'm john vause, "cnn newsroom" continues next hour with errol barnett and rosemary church. only glucerna has carbsteady, clinically proven to help minimize blood sugar spikes. so you stay steady ahead. ...to cook healthy meals... yet up to 90% fall short in getting key nutrients from food alone. let's do more... ...add one a day men's 50+. complete with key nutrients we may need. plus it helps support healthy blood pressure with vitamin d and magnesium.

-- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com refugees have arrived and in austria they are greeted with open arms. plus president obama addresses climate change. and new satellite proof isis obliterated a temple that stood for nearly 2,000 years. hello i'm rosemary church. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. >> i'm errol barnett. thanks for joining us. we're with you for the next two hours. this is "cnn newsroom." we begin this hour with europe's migrant crisis.

after days of waiting in makeshift shelters hundreds of migrants and refugees have made it to germany. in a sudden change of policy on monday, authorities let syrian and iraqi refugees buy tickets headed west from hungary. >> and refugees made it to austria. 20,000 people rallied to support the migrants and refugees and called for europe to be more welcoming. >> translator: what we have heard today is say it loud, say it clear, refugees are welcome here and other similar sayings. it's about a culture of welcoming and not controlling the people who are fleeing death. >> and germany is the favored destination for many migrants making their way across europe. the country has already pledged to take in thousands of asylum seekers. >> our fred pleitgen spoke with

refugees who made it to munich. >> reporter: after a long and difficult journey through much of europe many of the refugees are making it to munich's central station. germany is one of the main places that refugees want to go. most of them have endured a very, very difficult travel going through turkey, degrees, macedonia. many had a difficult time in hungary and a lot were stopped on trains in austria for a very long time and some are coming to germany and talking about things they have endured along the way. >> i passed in turkey and greece, macedonia, serbia, hungary austria and here. it cost us about 2,000 euro or 3,000. >> reporter: and more many of the people it is confusing what

the regulations here are in the european union. many had to be in hungary for a long time. some of them didn't have to apply for asylum. some were pulled off trains in austria and taken to refugee shelters here. when they arrive here many are checked at the train station and many will be taken to shelter and hopefully to safety. fred pleitgen, munich, germany. >> the migrant crisis is so unprecedented, leaders in the european union are struggling to find common ground and how to solve it. >> reporter: as the walls go up to keep migrants out, so, too, political divisions are mounting across the european union. hungary's decision to raise razor wire fences along the

border condemned by france. >> translator: hungary has values and we do not respect those fences. >> reporter: the hungarian government says it has an obligation to protect what it is effectively the european border. fences doing little to stop migrants to take ever desperate measures to reach that sanctuary. >> our view on the wall building this is a round about subsidy to the smugglers. if you create a barrier they will just charge more money to get around that barrier. >> reporter: to that end, austria has introduced security checks along its borders after 71 dead migrants were discovered in a lorry last week. >> a smuggler used a normal van,

usually transporting seven persons but there were 12 persons in it. including three little children. >> reporter: an unprecedented number of migrants continue to reach eu borders. germany expects to receive four times as many asylum seekers this year which has led to violent protests. [ chanting ]. >> reporter: angela merkel has called for tolerance as more migrants are expected to arrive. >> translator: that will be a central challenge not only for days or months but for a long period of time. and that's why it's important that while we are saying that german efficiency is great what we need now is german flexibility. >> reporter: the french prime minister also made a show of tackling the crisis on monday announcing a migrant camp and calling for a europe-wide migrant policy, the unified

stance the leaders are under increasing pressure to find when they meet on september 14th. earlier, cnn spoke with a hungarian government spokesman. >> and he reacted to the comments implying that hungary is treating the migrants like animals by building the fences. >> just take a look at what they built in calais trying to protect the channel tunnel. there are rules which should be kept. it's completely unacceptable that people come to the european union and come to hungary without the ability of the european union to identify them. and also, in an uncontrolled manner through the borders at will. we have to stop that and reestablish law and order rules that were established by european standards. >> a large portion of migrants

are from syria and that nation has lost a huge portion of the population since the uprising against the assad government began four years ago. in 2011 the population was estimated at 22.4 million. since then at least 7.6 million have been internally displaced meaning they fled their homes but stayed in the country. >> another 4 million have fled syria altogether, most going to lebanon, turkey, or jordan. more than 250,000 syrians have been killed in the continuing war. that leaves about 10.6 million syrians remaining where they were four years ago. strong words and warnings from u.s. president barack obama during an international conference in alaska on the effects of climate change. >> this is the start of a three-day visit to highlight the impact of climate change which mr. obama called the defining threat of the century and

acknowledged the united states role in global warming and addressed those who continue to ignore its existence. >> the time to heed the cynics has passed. the time to plead ignorance has surely passed. those who want to ignore the science are on their own shrinking island. i've come here today as leader of the world's largest economy and second largest emitter to say the united states recognizes our role in creating these problem and embrace the responsibility to help solve it. and i believe we can solve it. that's the good news. even if we cannot reserve the damage that we've already cause w ed we have the means and innovation to avoid irreparable

harm. >> reporter: a professor of ecology joins us now to talk about all of this. stuart, thanks for your time. president obama delivered a detailed and enthusiastic push for action to address climate change but he approved offshore drilling for shell. how can both be possible considering the environmental risks of drilling? >> i think it's really essential to move forward aggressively in addressing climate change so i approve that. but at the same time there's got to be a transitional mechanism. and so i think some continuation of oil production will be necessary. but this -- these -- the oil production should be used to finance transitions to a more renewable energy economy. >> and is that the current structure of things in alaska

right now? i mean, oil -- that industry is a major employer across the state. >> currently the oil industry accounts for 90% of the revenue for the state of alaska. any minor changes in the price of oil will have a huge effect on social services in alaska. >> the president also noted that developing renewable energy is important. what are the prospects for renewable energy in alaska? along the north slope you have oil companies that created thousands of jobs and goodwill to go with it. where is the potential to move on to renewable energy there? >> a larger proportion of communities in alaska use renewable energy than any other place in the world. we have experience using wind, solar, biomass.

so it's clearly possible to do this. it's just a question of modifying the economic incentives to foster this sort of development. >> do we have enough time? >> i think we do have enough time. in a sense it's already too late because there's already a huge amount of carbon dioxide that's been added to the atmosphere but we have to act aggressively now and do this in a way that's fiscally responsible at the same time. i support the president in his general approach. >> it seems that action is absolutely necessary no matter what that action is. stuart with the university of alaska at fairbanks. thanks for your time today. while in alaska, president obama will rename mt. mckinley. it will be renamed denali. >> mr. obama is changing the

name to undo what he sees as historical injustices. but ohio lawmakers are not happy about the name change. it is named after william mckinley, an ohio native. >> house speaker john boehner, an ohio govern and senator have expressed their disappointment. donald trump joined in with a tweet. he called the name change a great insult and said if he is elected president, he will change it back. let's go ahead and check some of the global stock markets. trading is wrapping up for the day in sydney and tokyo. we are seeing red. but as we take a closer look most of the losses today are happening in japan, the nikkei down 3.84%. you're seeing the shanghai composite pull back 2%. and the hang seng is down .8% and the s&p asx 200 is down 2%.

here is how the europe closed yesterday. the dax in germany down .38%. it will be interesting to see what happens once they open. monday was also a downer on wall street. the dow jones industrial average closed down 114 points. for more on the asia-pacific markets and economic data out of china we go live to hong kong. hi there, let's talk about what we are seeing happening there in the markets. but i also wanted to turn everyone's attention to the pmi numbers from china and just what they tell us about what's going on in the china economy. >> yeah, rosemary, the pmi numbers are showing us that the service sector in china is getting bigger and manufacturer

is getting smaller and telling us this is a wider slow down that everyone is talk about. and some relating that to the stock market saying this is what we are seeing in the stock market. and it really depends who you talk to. others are saying there is a disconnect between the two. you can't demand on what you see as a reflection of the wider economy slowdown. everyone knows it is happening but what the numbers show us is that it is there and where it is happening in particular. i do want to mention these numbers, then. so the pmi on manufacturing, the purchasing managers index in manufacturing reached 49.7. that is a down on the previous month. what is important to point out is that manufacturing is below 50. the service sector is above 50. 53.4. it is growing slower than last month but it is still expanding. services in china are expanding

and manufacturing is not expanding right now. you might look at that and say isn't manufacturing really what the chinese economy is all about? it used to be when we were buying all the goods ten years bag. but there was a recognition they needed a different economic model. as the demographics change and the gap between the developing chinese economy and developed economies begins to narrow. so we are expecting that wider economy to slow down. it is slowing down but still we're expecting growth of 7%. goldman sachs has slashed growth expectations for china but it is still 6.8% this year and 7.4% last year. it is still way above the u.s. and uk and other big economies. >> a lot of contradictions.

the white race from jews when he opened fire last year. the penalty phase starts tuesday. u.s. president barack obama called the widow of a sheriff's deputy killed in an ambush. >> the deputy was filling his patrol car when shannon myles shot him 15 times. mr. obama cold kathleen goforth have her in their prayers. we are learning much more about the alleged gunman's history of mental illness. >> reporter: we learned in october of 2012, shannon myles, the man accused of murdering deputy goforth was found mentally incompetent to stand trial and sent to a mental hospital for six months. prosecutors detailed some of the

details of how this murder unfolded. it was so quiet when shannon myles walked into the houston courtroom you could only hear the sound of the shackles around his ankles and waist. a show of force as several dozen sheriff's deputies stare down the man. >> he unloaded the entire weapon. >> prosecutors gave the most detailed account yet of how he allegedly ambushed the deputy as he was walking back to his patrol car at pump number 8. >> he puts a gun to the back of his head and shoots. deputy goforth hits the ground and then he continues to unload his gun, shooting repeatedly into the back. >> the prosecutor says myles emptied 15 shots in all before walking to his truck and driving away from the scene.

deputy goforth left dead in a pool of his own blood. on this spot now a memorial of teddy bears and flowers has blossomed in his honor. ballistic tests linked the shell casings to a shotgun found in shannon myles' home garage. investigators are trying to determine a motive for a shooting. but the sheriff says that deputy f goforth was targeted to his uniform. >> cops lives too. let's just drop the qualifier, lives matter. >> reporter: myles bounced around houston area colleges including the university where sandra bland was supposed to work. bland's case garnered scrutiny when she was found dead in her jail cell after being arrested

during a traffic stop. all of this happened just a few miles down the road from where myles lives and where he allegedly shot and killed deputy goforth. >> mental health issues will sta take a larger role in this trial. this comes as one of shannon myles' attorneys tells us one of the first things they will do is order a psychological examination of the suspect who faces t fac faces the death penalty in this case. a purple heart medal is given to american service members who are wounded or killed in combat. hours ago, the u.s. state department released another batch of hillary clinton's e-mails. 7,000 in all. it says more than 100 were retro

the e-mail controversy is not important. that means that 37% say it is somewhat important. but 6 in 10 say it is not important. and this is encouraging for bernie sanders. 96% support him because they like him and his ideas. only 2% say is it a rejection of hillary clinton. they are not doing in the an anticlinton mood. democrats in iowa like their field. use the president as the benchmark. 88% favorable. clinton has the highest negatives at 19 but if you look at this and consider the world we live in, iowa democrats are happy with their choices. >> and ben carson is giving trump a run for the money. >> this is a wild ride and it is anti-establishment and outsiders. this is the des moines register poll. ben carson at 18. then you have ted cruz, scott

walker and jewib bush. and new out today is the monmouth university poll that shows ben carson in a tie with donald trump and another republican who never held political office. if you look at this, this is not rocket science. republicans in iowa are looking for something different and that is hurting guys like governor bush and governor walker. more of the world's biggest stories coming up. scientists warn of the problems that come with the melting of arctic ice. but one industry sees it as an opportunity. we'll show you that after this.

a warm welcome back to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm rosemary church. >> i'm errol barnett. let's update our top stories right now. hundreds of migrants and refugees have arrived in hungary and germany. syrian and iraqi refugees were allowed to board trains on monday. investigators say they cannot tell with certainty whether the airplane debris found on reunion island in the indian ocean came from malaysia airlines flight 370. but since the part is from a boeing 777 and that is the only

one missing. president barack obama spoke monday night at the glacier conference in anchorage, the start of a three-day trip to address climate change. >> the pace of melting is only getting faster. it's now twice what it was between 1950 and 2000. twice as fast as it was just a little over a decade ago and it's one of the reasons why sea levels rose by about 8 inches over the last century and they are projected to rise one to four feet this century. ♪ >> here at cnn we are focusing

on the number you saw there, 2 degrees celsius. >> that is what climate experts say is the difference between stabilizing global warming and run away climate change. take a look at arctic ice levels which have been declining over the past three decades. the european space agency created this animation to show the decline. across the bottom you can see the time frame. the ice expands and contracts every year. expanding in winter and thaws in summer. >> but on average the ice is getting smaller and younger and thinner and more inclines to melt. and with less white ice to reflect the sun, solar radiation will warm the seas and accelerate the thaw. >> we hear about climate change and the damage it is causing the environment. but for one industry it brings

advantages. >> the shipping industry sees opportunities to make routes through the arctic. but that is not without risks. >> reporter: in august 2013, this was the first chinese cargo ship to travel through the arctic's sea route, a route that was completely frozen over until recently. melting sea ice is opening up a tempting prospect for shipping companies and this is why. the trip to the netherlands took 33 days. the same journey by the suez canal would take 48 days. but the risks may still outway the saving. >> there is about 1,000 nautical miles saved. but the problems are more a matter of the practicality. when you are going through the arctic they are the least

charted ocean space on the globe of the earth. >> reporter: it's still early days for this freezing shortcut. just four ships used the sea route in 2010. by 2013, it was 71. last year growth slowed slightly to 53. routes are haphazard today. but melting ice will open up new opportunities by mid century. >> this is 2015 and this is 2007. >> reporter: traveling on the same american ice breaker, eight years apart. this year on a mission to improve safety infrastructure in the region. >> less than 1% of the traffic is going across the top of the world, mostly across the top of russia. it's not a huge change, really, in terms of where goods are going but it's a glimpse of the

future. >> reporter: freight vessels are not the only ones. cruise line crystal cruises is launching its first arctic voyage through the northwest passage next summer. >> people want to be there and experience it. it's beautiful. >> reporter: but still risky for those hoping to capitalize on this changing landscape. our world is literally changing before our eyes. earlier we told you about president obama's visit to alaska and the arctic circle. we want to bring in our meteorologist, pedram javaheri. you have insight into why alaska plays a big role in this discussion on climate change. >> absolutely. alaska plays a significant role because you are talking about a global impact just from one state because of the certain composition of parts of the state as well. we know in alaska the temperatures annually have increased nearly 3.5 degrees

fahrenheit and in winter 6 degrees fahrenheit. and this pattern is expected to continue. another six to seven degrees is certainly a possibility. i want to lay the land for you across alaska. about 80% of the underlying ground is permafrost or frozen landscape that has been there tens of thousands of years. and beneath it you have grass and trees and plants. and when fires occur you are releasing the carbon into the atmosphere. the fires this year have been so large you are burring into the duff area where you have needles and leaves and pine. this also releases additional carbon into the atmosphere. when you get to the number of fires that we are seeing and the nature of the fire you are returning down to the mineral

soil and when it is a dark surface after it has been burned it is losing its insulation. you are heating up the landscape especially for alaska's long summer days. so now you're melting some of the permafrost which releases methane gas to the atmosphere and it is 30 times more potent an carbon dioxide is. this has global implications when you release large quantities across this part of the world. we know large parts of the northern interior of alaska have continuous areas of permafrost. i want to lay out the 750 large fires that have occurred this year. and notice the area right here. this is the discontinuous zone and that is where the large fires have been in place. you have exposed active layers

and you are getting closer to the surface. this feeds from one into the other. you are releasing large quantities of methane over the years. looking at the north pole, first we get rid of the permafrost and into the continuous and discontinuous and all of this melting in the next 50 to 75 years. it's a knockon effect over the years. >> it is a real concern, isn't it? >> thanks so much. appreciate it. still to come, we will have more on the 2,000-year-old temple demolished by isis and why the militants tore down syria's national treasure. we're back in a moment. diabetes, steady is exciting.

migrants crowd on to trains in hungary desperate to take a one-way trip to a better life. deadly violence on the streets of ukraine's capital as russia strengthens its hold on the country's east. and u.s. president barack obama heads to alaska to deliver a speech aimed at climate change deniers. >> welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm rosemary church. >> and i'm errol barnett. this is "cnn newsroom." our top story this hour, europe's migrant crisis, hundreds of migrants and refugees have reached their final destination in their journey to western europe. >> refugees arrived in the city of munich and others made it to austria. >> authorities let syrian and iraqi refugees buy tickets and

board trains headed west from hungary. our arwa damon was there. >> reporter: they're very upset. they've been waiting so long to get on this train and it's overpacked and overcrowded. they could not find seats. they're saying there are people who haven't reserved tickets. so people are still asking if they can travel with just their syrian i.d. we are told they should be able to make it and get on these trains. the reason why everyone is in such a panic to just cram on the train and get out of here is there is this fear amongst all that this opportunity they have to actually be able to leave might go away very, very quickly. and no one wants to get stuck here anywhere. >> our fred pleitgen joins us live from the munich train station where many of the refugees arrived and, fred, this

is analogous to what is happening in europe. refugees arriving in so many nations. they must be confused as to what legal process to follow as well. >> reporter: yeah, you're absolutely right, errol. i've been speaking to a couple of muslim syrians. there are a lot of people here. these are the people who consider themselves lucky to make from the the trains that have come from hungary and gone through austria. many stranded in austria for a while and now in germany. in parking lot in front of the railway station is actually full of people. the police are trying to come to terms with things here. there is an ambulance here and they are handing out food and drink and trying to get these folks on to buses to bring them to shelters.

they are confused. where can they go to register and what happens if they were registered in hungary. it goes to show that inside europe the authorities here are just not prepared for an influx of people. and we have to keep in mind the way the people are coming here to germany stretches the german and european law somewhat in that most should have applied to asylum when they got to hungary or austria. but many came here. the germans are saying anyone who comes here will be able to register for asylum, anyone from places like syria and judging from the folks we are speaking to, most are from syria. now you are right. many of them not exactly leer what their next stages are. we are seeing a lot of folks wandering around looking for authorities or looking for some place to register. i spoke to a doctor from the

town of -- in the hands of high sis now who was confused and looking for someone to show him where to go. difficult for the authorities and for the folks arriving here. but most of the folks we are speaking to are in good spirits. >> and all of that is understandable. as we look at the big pictures. europeans are challenged with accepting these people despite local economic pressures. i'm wondering where public opinion is on this where you are in germany. >> reporter: it's a very good question and one of the things that we've seen over the past couple days is shift in public opinion. for a long time, the government of angela merkel seemed to be reluctant to take a strong stand on the migrant and refugee crisis. but what you had in the past couple weeks is incidents where there were violent protests in some cities against refugee

shelters and asylum shelters that were torched here. and there was a counter reaction, people in football stadiums that held up banners saying refugees welcome here. of course when i speak to people in germany and the towns i know here they tell me we are overwhelmed by the amount of people coming here. people are not clear how a country as big as germany is going to stem this. but for the time being, public opinion is quite positive to these people coming here especially those who are fleeing a civil war and others from violence in places like syria, iraq, eritrea. but there is a riff in the european union where you have the french foreign minister criticizing european countries especially those in eastern europe for what he believes is

not taking in enough people. it is a big problem that the european union is facing. >> and the harsh rhetoric will continue as the migrants and refugees just seek a better life. fred pleitgen live for us in munich where many are on their first day of their new life and home in germany. >> leaders in the european union are struggling to find some common ground on how to solve the problem. we take a look at the divisions. as the walls go up to keep migrants out, so, too, political divisions are mounting across the european union. hungary's decision to erect razor wire fences condemned by france. >> hungary is part of europe and we do not respect the values by putting up fences that we wouldn't use for animals. >> the hungarian government says as a member state it has an

obligation to protect the european border. fences doing little to stop migrants to stop taking ever desperate measures to reach that sanctuary. >> our view on the wall building is that this is a round about subsidy to the smugglers. if you create a barrier they will charge the people they are transporting more money to get around that barrier. >> reporter: to that end, austria has introduced new security checks along its borders after 71 dead migrants were discovered last week. >> they use different forms of transportation. we had here a case where a smuggler used a normal van usually transporting seven persons but there were 12 persons in it, including three little children. >> reporter: an unprecedented number of migrants continue to reach eu borders.

germany alone expects to receive four times as many asylum seekers this year which has led to violent protests. [ chanting ] angela merkel has called for tolerance as more migrants are expected to arrive. >> translator: that will be a central challenge not only for days or months but for a long period of time. and that's why it's important that while we are saying that german efficiency is great what we need now is german flexibility. >> reporter: the french prime minister made a show announcing a new migrant camp and calling for a union wide migrant policy when they meet for emergency talks on september 14th. now to another big story we're following for you.

the u.s. president issued a strong warning on climate change. president barack obama was speaking in anchorage, alaska on monday in the start of a three-day visit to highlight climate change which he called the defining threat of the century. >> mr. obama was critical of those who still deny human activity is warming the planet and took responsibility for the role the u.s. plays in the issue. >> i've come here today as the leader of the world's largest economy and its second largest emitter to say that the united states recognizes our role in creating this problem and we embrace our responsibility to help solve it. and i believe we can solve it. that's the good news. even if we cannot reverse the damage that we've already caused we have the means, the scientific imagination and technological innovation to

avoid irreparable harm. >> our meteorologist pedram javaheri has been tracking really the science of all of this, and president obama laid out the numbers, the statistics, really, you know, leaving no room for doubt that climate change is happening and getting worse and we all need to act. >> absolutely. well said. and that's the case and the point he was trying to make and the reason he went to alaska, it is ground zero for what is happening in climate change. and the impacts don't just cause an issue for the state itself but also not just for the united states but on a planetary level as well. i want to show you what happens in the state of alaska and why this is so important. this is the distribution of permafrost or frozen soil that has been in place across alaska and has been in place for tens of thousands of years. in the northern area is continuous permafrost. and some of it is as deep as

2,000 feet. as you come to the central and southern portion of alaska it is discontinuous. it melts sometimes in the summer and refreezes in the winter. but want to show you where the fires have been this year. on the order of 750 active fires at one point across the state of alaska many in the discontinuous zone. you have exposed land burning alongside with the permafrost which has trapped methane. so we'll break down what is happening in alaska. and 80% of this landscape is a frozen landscape that remains frozen for tens of thousands of years. but sometimes you burn the active layer where we have the soil start to burn and the trees burn in this region that releases carbon into the atmosphere. but the fires are burning down into the duff layer and that makes up leaves or needles and

all of this that has been decomposing for years. and releasing the carbon from them. and the fires have been so expansive they are burning into the mineral soil where the permafrost is situated next to. now you are take the insulation away. so the long summer days alaska is well known for now begin to heat up this dark scorched ground and you are melting the permafrost releasing a greenhouse gas that is 30 times more potent than carbon dioxide. this is something significant and we know 25% of the northern h hemisphere is covered by permafrost. so we'll take you back to this region and show you why the importance continues for alaska. we know the temperatures have been warming for decades. the past five decades the temperatures have gone up 3.5 annually speaking and 6 plus

degrees across the winter observation points. in the next 50 this is expected to continue. the fires have been prevalent and much longer lived fires. 758 this year over 5 million acres of land burned closing in on the record from 2004. this is all just a knockon effect melting the permafrost, releasing greenhouse gases that will trap additional heat that we get in the coming summers. >> they call this a negative feedback loop. >> it is. >> and a reality check for all of us. thanks so much. the u.s. state department released another batch of hillary clinton's e-mails. 7,000 in all. it says more than 100 of the e-mails contain information that is now classified. >> the e-mails include many mundane notes and requests for updates on israel and other regions from her time as secretary of state. clinton has been criticized for

using a personal e-mail address and private server. a new poll shows republican donald trump losing his lead in the key state of iowa. >> according to the monmouth university poll he is now tied with neurosurgeon ben carson at 23%. he had been leading the field in the past month in iowa. that is the first state to vote for the republican nominee. >> donald trump has been a lightning rod in the presidential race from his brash comments on political issues to the way he uses social media. >> randy kaye looks as how he uses twitter as a weapon. >> reporter: donald trump unleashed in 140 characters or less. his tweets are often sarcastic, hateful and downright nasty most directed at his opponents. jeb bush never uses his last name on signage, et cetera. is he ashamed of the name bush?

a sad situation. go jeb. congrats at lindsey graham sc. you are only 26 points behind me. and after democratic candidate bernie sanders lost control of his microphone to black lives matters protesters, trump tweeted, how is bernie sanders going to defend our country if he can't defend his own microphone, very sad. trump went after the president during the ebola scare. i'm starting to think there is something wrong with president obama's mental health. why won't he stop the flights? psycho. in another tweet he asked if the president is stupid or arrogant. trump has 4 million followers on twitter. his tweets hardly go unnoticed. his favorite words seem to be "dumb" and "dopey." he used the word "great" a lot

too. but mainly about himself and things he likes. and he goes after the media too. the wombimbo back in town i hop not for long. and about anderson cooper what a waste of time being interviewed by anderson cooper when he puts on stupid talking heads like tim o'brien, dumb guy with no clue. and this tweet, one of the dumber and least respected of the political pundits is -- of the washington post at the fix. moron hates my poll numbers. celebrities are also fair game. trump tweeted this last year about singer katy perry. she must have been drunk when she married russell brand. brand fired bat, are you drunk

when you tweets or does that foam you spray on your bald head make you high? whatever it is that inspires trump's tweets a washington post headline summed it up this way, your next president, donald trump basically tweets like a 12-year-old. randy kaye, cnn, new york. a short break here. but still to come, a violent reaction to a vote by ukraine's parliament. ahead, what the country's president says about the deadly clashes on the streets of kiev. plus european markets are just revving up after another rough day for asian stocks. we'll check the numbers for you after the break. bill's got a very tough 13lie here...... looks like we have some sort of sea monster in the water hazard here. i believe that's a "kraken", bruce. it looks like he's going to go with a nine iron. that may not be enough club...

well he's definitely going to lose a stroke on this hole. if you're a golf commentator, you whisper. it's what you do. if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. it's what you do. this golf course is electric...

welcome back, everyone. two journalists charged with defaming thailand's navy have been acquitted. the two were reporting in 2013 on the alleged involvement of thai naval forces in human trafficking. >> they could have faced up to seven years in prison. amnesty international says they

should never have been put on trial. the navy has 30 days to appeal the verdict. thai officials have issued four warrants in connection with the bombing two weeks ago. >> officials say 26-year-old -- was contacted -- has contacted authorities with testimony. she signed rental contracts for several rooms. she denies any involvement and says she lives in turkey. >> the bomb killed 20 people and injured more than 100. the ukraine president is condemning the violence outside parliament. >> petro poroshenko says decentralization is a difficult but logical step toward peace. jim sciutto has more on the clashes and u.s. moves to bolster its forces in the

region. >> reporter: violence on the streets of the ukrainian capital kiev now turning deadly. a grenade thrown from the crowd killing one soldier, injuring several others. these street battles pit ukrainian nationalists against the parliament who just approved gives great saw tommie to the eastern areas of the country. ukraine's western-backed president scolded protesters for attacking ukraine over russia. >> it is sad that some members of the coalition attacked the president and supreme commander-in-chief of their own country instead of trying to counter the external enemy. >> reporter: russia has strengthened its hold on the east and the war raged on with more than 6,000 killed since april last year. two cease-fire agreements in

tatters. >> we call on all ukrainians no matter their affiliation or organization to respect law and order. >> reporter: with nato allies worried they could be the next targets the u.s. military is sending predator drones to latvia over the weekend. and f-22s to germany late last week. all part of an effort to reassure european allies that the u.s. will deter further aggression by russian president vladimir putin. >> it seems that is the direction he wants to take and we're going to have to check that. >> reporter: the deployment of the drones to latvia is a temporary rotation similar to other military moves in the region to balance a show of force against avoiding further antagonizing russia. the next stop for the raptors from germany is poland another nerve eastern european and nato

ally. jim sciutto, cnn, washington. now we want to check the global economy for you. stock markets in europe opened about 24 minutes ago. we look at the numbers for you and show you there is not too dramatic other than the indices being down. the london ftse down 1.5%. and paris and zurich are down about 1.7% each. >> let's go to the asian markets, the nikkei is down 4%. the shanghai composite closed about half an hour ago losing 1.25%. so for more on the asia-pacific markets and new economic data out of china we want to turn to hong kong. hello again. so china's pmi numbers were

released today. what do they tell us about the state of the country's economy? >> reporter: well they are confirming what a lot of people thought was happening and that we are seeing a wider shift in the chinese economy. we saw manufacturing contract in the month of august and the service industry slowing. the rate of growth slowed. in terms of the numbers, it all sounds technical but if you have a number above 50, it means that part of the economy is growing. if the number is below 50, which is what it was for manufacturing, that part of the economy is contracting. why is this important? it's important on many levels. the government needs a new economic policy. but along with that we've seen all of these not just jitters, a lot of panic around about the chinese markets right now and the impact on other wider

markets. is that a reflection of what is happening in the chinese economy right now? some people are saying there is a disconnect between the two. not many chinese investors are invested in statistics. about 1 in 30 people. and those oversea foreigners are 1.5 to 2% invested. but the markets represent sentiment. you are seeing people looking at the valuations and saying maybe we just got -- you know, we pitched it too high and you are seeing a major correction going on. there are two other things happening in the world right now. we saw the oil price bounce up at the close in the u.s. yesterday by 8.8%. and everyone is talking about the u.s. federal reserve. we are going to see employment figures on friday that might give us a clue as to whether the fed is going to hike rates soon. that's another thing that everyone is talking about in the markets. in the chinese economy what happens if we see this cooling?

we saw 7.4% growth last year. goldman sachs is expecting 6.8% this year. if the economy cools all of the emerging markets that were selling commodities to china to help with the boom in infrastructure we saw years ago will suffer along with those who sell oil, all of these factors we have to talk about that do get impacted by the chinese economy cooling. it is a huge worry for many but the central bank is saying it will not impact on their decisions on whether to hike rates or not. that is something that the bank of england chief was asked and he said so far he is not considering the china effect. but that may begin to happen soon, rosemary. >> a lot to cover there. watching for the new numbers. could apple possibly bank

roll the next "house of cards"? why some say the company is getting behind original programming. and hail to the chief, kanye west, the rapper says he is running for u.s. president in 2020. that's later in our show. stick around. ♪ look how beautiful it is... honey, we need to talk. we do? i took the trash out. i know - and thank you so much for that. i think we should get a medicare supplement insurance plan. right now? whether you're new to medicare or not, you may know it only covers about 80% of your part b medical expenses. it's up to you to pay the difference. so think about an aarp medicare supplement insurance plan, insured by unitedhealthcare insurance company. like all standardized medicare supplement insurance plans, they help cover some of what medicare doesn't pay. i did a little research.

for the next 30 minutes you're watching "cnn newsroom" with us. i'm errol barnett. >> and i'm rosemary church. it's time to check the headlines for you this hour. hundreds of syrian and iraqi

refugees have arrived in germany. the refugees were allowed to buy tickets and board trains on monday. many more migrants are still in budapest waiting to leave. ukrainian president petro poroshenko is condemning violence clashes outside parliament. lawmakers gave backing to greater autonomy to rebel-held areas in the east. the u.s. state department has released another 7,000 of hillary clinton's e-mail. more than 100 held information that was later classified. she has been criticized for using her personal e-mail and server while she was secretary of state. u.s. president barack obama didn't hold back during an international conference on climate change. >> he called out climate change deniers and said we must act now.

>> we know that human activity is changing the climate. that is beyond dispute. everything else is politics. if people are defying the facts of climate change. we can have a legitimate debate about how we are going to address this problem. we cannot deny the science. we also know the devastating consequences if the current trend lines continue. that is not deniable. and we are going to have to do some adaptation and we are going to have to help communities be resilient. some of the trend lines we are not going to be able to stop on a dime. we're not going to be able to stop tomorrow. but if those trend lines continue the way they are, there's not going to be a nation

on this earth that is not impacted negatively. people will suffer. economies will suffer. entire nations will find themselves under severe, severe problems. more drought. more floods. rising sea levels. greater migration. more refugees. more scarcity. more conflict. that's one path we can take. the other path is to embrace the human ingenuity that can do something about it.

this is within our power. this is a solvable problem. if we start now. >> stuart chaffin is a professor of ecology at the university of alaska in fairbanks. thanks for your time. president obama delivered an enthusiastic push for action to address climate change but he also approved offshore drilling exploration for shell. in your view, how can both be possible considering the environmental risks of drilling? >> i think it's really essential to move forward aggressively in addressing climate change so i approve. that but at the same time there has to be a transitional mechanism. so i think some continuation of oil production will be necessary. but this -- these -- the oil

production should be used to finance transitions to a more renewable energy economy. >> and is that the current structure of things in alaska right now? i mean, oil, that industry is a major employer across the state. >> currently the oil industry accounts for 90% of the revenue for the state of alaska. so any minor changes in the price of oil are going to have huge effects on social services in alaska and any aggressive action to reduce production or increase production likewise influences the state of alaska. >> now the president also noted that developing renewable energy is important. what are the process pecks for renewable energy in alaska. along the north slope you have oil companies that have created thousands of jobs and goodwill to go with it. where is the potential to move on to renewable energy there? >> a larger proportion of

communities in alaska use renewable energy than any other place in the world. we already have experience using wind, solar, biomass. so it's clearly possible to do this. it's just a question of modifying the economic incentives to foster this sort of development. >> but do we have enough time? >> i do think we have enough time. in a sense it's already too late because there's already a huge amount of carbon dioxide that's been added to the atmosphere but we have to act aggressively now. and we have to do this in a way that's fiscally responsibility at the same time. so i support the president in his general approach. >> it seems that action is absolutely necessary, no matter what action that is. stuart chapin, thanks for your time today. if sanctions against iran are eased the country is poised

to reenter the energy market. tehran plans to add 1 million barrels of oil a day by the end of the year. that announcement is having an effect on markets. we have a deeper look at the impact of iran's return to the oil market. >> reporter: 100 nautical miles east from this uae loading terminal could be the next major energy giant, iran, the mere prospect of having sanctions lifted triggered a $20 fall in price since june. iran's petrol yum minister wants to increase exports 1 million barrels a day. >> iran could add 800,000 barrels a day to the market within six to nine months and it could release oil from storage within a period of one to three months after sanctions are eased and that in an oversupplied market is going to put the

prices lower. >> reporter: iran's potential reemergence couldn't come at a worse time. the big three produces have not trimmed their sales despite the prices. saudi arabia is producing 10 billion barrels a day. and russia focusing on new asian customers and the u.s. is nearly out of storage capacity. iran if it could open the door wide open could move up the table of the energy giants around the world. after a few years of tight sanctions the country starved for cash and the know how. >> its sector needs an injection of new technology and capital as well. obviously the financial situation of iran has been badly affected by sanctions. >> reporter: but the potential is sizable. it has the fourth largest oil

reserves. 18% of proven gas reserves and four years ago was producing 4.3 million barrels a day. >> it could bea hugelayer. in oil account be a truly second place in opec. if iran comes on now, and can get the right investment account become a very, very strong player in opec, indeed. >> medium term with iran and iraq combined politically, it could challenge the supremacy of the kingdom in oil and change the land for exports right here in the middle east. let's take a short break right here. but still to come, apple may be trying to give netflix, amazon and hulu a run for their money. details on a possible new plan to take over your tv watching. we'll explain. we stop arthritis pain,

welcome back, everyone. yahoo ceo marissa meier is expecting identical twin girls in december. she made the announcement on her tumblr page. she shared the news with the board of directors and they're sportive. >> she plans to take limited time away from work. she already has a 3-year-old son. >> i hope she can take time and enjoy it. apple could be competing with netflix, amazon and hulu. >> variety is reporting that apple is exploring the option at a moment. some experts say the device

could be more popular with original shows. apple is reaching out to top entertainment brass for talks but all of that is in the very early stages. but could this be a boon for apple? joining me from hong kong is the vice president of client devices research at international data corporation or idc. brian, thanks for talking with us. what could this mean for apple and its competitors in the big picture? >> reporter: it's about bringing a lock into the apple ecosystem. if they can create original content you can only get this type of show or whatever type of content if you are owning apple devices and an apple user. if you look at where apple's profits are coming from it's from the sales of the devices and hardware. although it will be interesting to see what model they roll out. >> and what you said is the big

question, isn't it? will apple create original content or simply distribute other company content do. we know? >> exactly. that's the big question. it's still such early days right now and just a lot of rumors, to be honest. they already distribute content in some forms today. it's in a download format. will they provide a subscription or streaming service and will it be other people's content or original content. that is what will be interesting. i suspect a blend of the both. eventually if they want to hold power and that command over their users and keep people in that apple ecosystem it may come down to original content. but it is a lot of speculation right now. >> that is key, isn't it? what about the technological challenges for apple as the company moves in this direction? what do you see as the hurdles here? >> i don't know if it's so much

technological aside from making sure the bandwidth is okay. the bigger issue is securing the rights assuming we are talking about other people's content and as we have seen in cases like the verizon and netflix back and forth going on, are there issues with some of these guys seeing apple as a competitor and not wanting to give all that full bandwidth to users to view that content properly. >> and apple has been very successful in the music arena. can we assume they will follow with tv content? >> that's the thing they have got going for them. the good thing is, they've got a track record of being able to negotiate what people thought was impossible. if you look in the early 2000s when everyone was saying no one can distribute content and not worry about piracy. apple was the one that was able to do it and surprised

everybody. so assuming they can take those negotiation chops and their credibility to hollywood studios and distribute that, that could be an interesting play too. but it's a different apple and a different time now. we'll see if they can do that. >> things moving quickly for a lot of people. a pleasure to talk to you. thanks for joining us. can't believe i'm saying this. kanye 2020? it's not the name of his latest album but the rapper's plan to run for president of the united states. a look at his possible campaign strategy after this. bill's got a very tough 13lie here...... looks like we have some sort of sea monster in the water hazard here. i believe that's a "kraken", bruce. it looks like he's going to go with a nine iron. that may not be enough club... well he's definitely going to lose a stroke on this hole. if you're a golf commentator, you whisper. it's what you do.

1902. >> i predict they will hold on to that one. >> which might be a big disappointment. i think the red, white, and blue versions are leading in the polls. but the old flag may stick around. >> it's similar to the australian flag. but i think the second one on the left -- >> that's my vote too. >> one of the most interesting moments from sunday's mtv video music awards may have been kanye west's political announcement. >> west said he is going to run for president of the united states in 2020 and that got our jeanne moos asking how well would he do debating donald trump? >> reporter: adds the words rolled off his tongue. >> i have decided in 2020 -- >> reporter: eyes rolled. >> to run for president. >> does that mean that kim kardashian would be the first lady?

>> no ifs, ands, or butts about it. >> gives new meaning to the west wing. >> reporter: the kardashian clan chimed in with -- as for who the rapper would run against, kanye crowned with trump-like hair. may we present the donald versus kanye debate. the clash of the narcissists. >> politicians are all talk, no action. >> i'm not no politician, bro. >> i will be the greatest jobs president that god ever created. >> i am the number one most impactful artist of our generation. i am shakespeare in the flesh. >> i don't care. i'm really rich.
