2:00 am
welcome to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada, and around the world. i'm kim brunhuber. this is "cnn newsroom." the deal is done, but not everyone is thrilled with the cop-26 climate agreement. and just when europe thought it could return to normal, it's scrambling to fight back against the fourth wave of the pandemic. and dozens are dead after a prison riot in ecuador. it's the same place where more than 100 were killed just weeks ago.
2:01 am
nearly 200 negotiators at the tcop-26 conference finally hammered out an agreement on sunday, but only after a last-minute compromise on coal. many delegates were crushed by that change. u.n. secretary general antonio guterres conceded the agreement, fell short, but was better than no deal. here he is. >> we did not achieve these goals at this conference, but we have some building blocks for progress. i want to send a message to young people, indigenous communities, women leaders, all of those leading on climate action. i know you are disappointed. but the best of progress is not always a straight line. sometimes, there are detours, sometimes there are ditches. but i know we can get there. we are in the fight of our lives and this fight must be won. >> the agreement reaffirms the importance of holding global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius. it requests that countries bring more aggressive emissions
2:02 am
targets to next year's conference in egypt and agrees to phase down the use of coal instead of phase out, a small but significant change requested by india. climate activists in glasgow were skeptical before the conference began. after saturday's final agreement, they quickly branded cop-26 a failure and showed off mock headstones of past cop meetings that had also failed to bring decisive action. activist greta thundberg tweete, cop-26 is over. here's a brief summary. blah, blah, blah. but the real work continues outside these halls and we will never give up, ever. cnn's phil black joins me now from glasgow. take us through in a bit more detail what's in it. >> reporter: kim, as a general rule, these conferences don't do transformational change. you have 200 countries pursuing their own national interests, while trying to achieve a consensus makes for a grinding, painful process.
2:03 am
perhaps nothing reflects that more than this being the first time at almost 30 years at these conferences that there is specific language talking about the need to move away from coal. it is unprecedented. and even with that weakened language, it was supported and accepted by other countries that were disappointed by it, because they wanted to preserve other substance within the agreement. notably, as you touched on that very strong language based on the science about the need to contain global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius. the fact that science says pretty explicitly that in order to achieve that threshold, then tough action, dramatic action needs to be taken this decade in order to ensure we can cut emissions by 2030. it includes instructions for countries to go away, come back next year for specific, tougher, more ambitious emissions cuts in the years ahead. so what it means is that on the
2:04 am
whole, finally, there's an agreement that reflects the urgency of the scientific message. and crucially, it provides an opportunity, an instruction for countries to come back and still take action that meets that scientific urgency. it's just a question now of whether those countries will step up. >> and phil, the reaction steems to range from lukewarm positivity to outright disappointment. >> reporter: yeah, people like greta thunberg, who want to see transformational change will be disappointed, but perhaps on the other hand never expected to see it at these conferences. it is just not what they do, as i say. but on the other hand, keeping the process alive is still something of an achievement. because there was some doubt about that coming into this. we knew that the individual emissions cuts didn't add up to what was required. and according to the rules, as they were previously, it was unlikely they were going to be
2:05 am
ramped up in time to deliver what the science says is necessary. that opportunity now exists. there are instructions there for countries to come back, step up, and cut emissions deeply. we don't know if that is going to happen, but what it means is that there is still the hope, the possibility that we could get there. incremental change, no doubt, not the change the science demands, but a new sense of urgency, and according to some analysts here, an understanding that we now appear to be on an undisputed, inevitable low-carbon path. but now it's a race. a question of can we get there, can we make significant deep changes in time to achieve what the science says is necessary before the worst impacts of climate change hit us. kim? >> thanks again for your reporting from the scene there in glasgow, scotland, phil black. >> worsening climate disasters
2:06 am
displaced more than 30 million people last year. the international director of if federation of red cross and red crescent societies joins us from geneva. your organization put out a statement after the agreement was finalized. i characterize it as supportive in general, but critical of a number of things. let me start with the first regarding hitting that critical target of 1.5 degrees of warming and the statement that said that specific commitments to meet this target remain too vague. what's missing. what would you have liked to see on that score, specifically? >> thank you for having me, and thank you for mentioning that report that we published, where, you know, climate has displaced more than 30 million people, which is three times higher than the people displaced by conflict. this aspect hasn't been talked about enough. that's why we really wanted to highlight the plight of those people who get displaced every year by the climate-related disasters. on glasgow itself, many of the
2:07 am
commitments are vague, and also, they are too far away. for us, as an american organization. the impact of the climate crisis is happening already now. the climate crisis is not from the future. for people, as we saw, in the small island of developing states and many other parts of the world, the climate change has already happened. we did not see concrete actions there. we talk a lot on the call about oil and gas and didn't see the commitment that had been promised years ago to fund $100 billion a year on adaptation. we also didn't see action on funding loss and dodge for some of these countries. they can have a significant impact of the climate crisis. why that happens on incremental, positive steps towards achieving
2:08 am
1.5 degrees. but what we have seen now will not get us there. >> yeah, on the issue of loss and damage and helping some of the smaller nations, people in this country, for instance, might not see helping smaller nations as a top priority, even in the context of climate change, but your organization, as you mentioned, did a lot of research on the effects that climate change has on displacing people in vulnerable countries. and that can have a direct effect on things like illegal immigration, for example. people might not draw the link between climate change in honduras, for instance, and the migrant crisis at the u.s. border. >> what we have found is so far, most of the people displaced, because of the climate-related disasters have been displaced internally, within the national quarters, very small number of people have actually crossed the border because of climate. but for the people who are displaced, their suffering is the same, whether they are within the country or they have crossed the border.
2:09 am
of course, if they crossed the border, those people have bigger challenges, because they have no legal framework for people who migrant because of the climate-related disasters. so there is a huge legal gap if people cross the border. but when we see this vast number of 30 million people displaced just in 2020, it will only be feasible that there will be more people actually crossing the border and adding to already the high number of people who migrant, because of various reasons. not only because of countries, but also the issue of the climate-related disasters. also, of course, livelihood-related issue. so this aspect of climate-related dispersement need to be very high on the agenda, too, because the people suffer in mostly developing countries. zblef as you say, this isn't
2:10 am
theoretical. this past year in the u.s., we saw the devastating effects of climate change on both coasts with the unprecedented fire and droughts in the west, deadly floods in the east, and the red cross being called to help with those emergencies. and yet, even in the face of all of this, a surprisingly high number of americans, about tevin in ten republicans, say climate change isn't an emergency, even in the face of all of these disasters. so how do you go about changing those entrenched attitudes? >> this is, i think, one of the very important, the community-based organizations, the organizations who are deeply rooted in the communities. i think that's where we prioritize a lot. and you give very specific examples from the u.s., and as we show that also in the heart of europe here, in belgium, i was there last month, and we see people displaced because of the climate-related disasters. in germany, in australia, so the impact of the climate crisis is
2:11 am
not only in developing more, it's actually impacting everybody. now, i think there are a few things we can do. and one of our calls to the young people has been, you know, they should continue to challenge the leadership. they should continue to protest. they should also continue to work towards changing the mind-set. you know, the young people can play a very, very important role in changing behaviors. and bringing science in the front line. and although i belong to the rose, so i don't want to talk about politics, it is also very important for the general public to elect the leaders who trust on science and who take action based on science. and i think this is a very important role that the young climate activists are playing and will continue to play and we strongly support those by the young people. >> we saw a lot of that energy
2:12 am
from young people and i'm sure we'll see it going forward. listen, thank you so much for your time, really appreciate it. >> thank you so much for having me. we're following breaking news from the uk. buckingham palace says that queen elizabeth ii won't make a public appearance this morning for uk remembrance day ceremonies as originally planned. it was to be the monarch's first public appearance since doctors advised her to rest following a one-night stay in hospital last month. cnn's royal correspondent, max foster joins me now from london. war we are hearing from the palace about this last-minute cancellation. is it at all related to the hospitalization last month? >> reporter: according to a source, no, it's not related to the reason she was signed off work recently. she had a -- she sprained her back, we're told. a lot of attention being paid to this, not just pabecause she's been out of action, but this was the one occasion that we were expecting to see her.
2:13 am
there was going to be a lot of focus on the imagery to see how well she is. and we're not going to get that opportunity now. but the palace saying it's not related to the issues that she may have had previously. we only found out in the last our or so. and it is a surprise -- it would be a surprise in normal times, but she wouldn't turn up to this event, because vs. very much in part of her calendar, something she's utterly committed to. only six times in her long reign as she failed to attend this and that was either because she was a away or pregnant. it will be a completely different sense to this remembrance day service and it will feel very different. people are quite concerned, particularly when you consider that she had gone into hospital recently and the palace didn't tell us about that. we only found out when some photographers saw her coming out. so there's lots of speculation that this is more serious, but we have to stick to what we know, and that's simply that she sprained her back, she can't attend, it's unrelated to the reason she couldn't attend to previous events.
2:14 am
>> so max, with that hospital stay, with this new issue, supposedly about her back, what does that suggest about the overall health of the 95-year-old queen? i mean, she's the oldest, longest-reigning monarch in the world. >> i guess we have to just keep reminding ourselves of that. that she is 95 years old. and she does sprain her back, it's going to put her out of action more than a younger person. if she was having checks at the hospital, they would be more likely to send her into hospital and ask her to rest afterwards. you've got to remember that she's 95 years old. but there's nothing to suggest that there's anything more serious here. and in fact, a source is pointing out to me that the queen is deeply disappointed to miss this engagement. she does consider it one of her most significant engagements of the year and she hopes to continue with her planned schedule of light official duties next week. we do know that she's been carrying on these light duties, doing some conference calls, for example, from windsor castle. she has been workin iing a bit.
2:15 am
but people concerned about the language, hopes to continue her schedule of light engagement. we'll have to watch to see what comes next, really, when we get to see her, whether it's in person or on voideo or at an event. >> thanks for covering this breaking news for us. max foster in london. appreciate it. a polish soldier is dead amazed an ongoing standoff over migrants on the belarusian border. the death appears to be a mishap, the result of an accidental shooting in poland, but tensions remain high as thousands of migrants are trapped in limbo. meanwhile, polish police say the body of a syrian man was found near the border on friday. what killed him wasn't immediately clear, but migrants are braving freezing forests and a lack of food to reach the eu. for the very latest, nada baa shi shir is tracking this story from london. >> reporter: eu foreign ministers will be gathering in
2:16 am
brussels to discuss the next steps, what actions need to be taken to really quell this crisis we're seeing on the border between poland and belarus. we heard from the eu foreign affairs chief, yesterday confirming that he has spoken with the foreign ministers of poland and lithuania. we have also heard from u.s. secretary of state antony blinken. he too also speaking with the polish foreign minister. there are some intense diplomatic efforts ongoing at the moment to quell this crisis that is unfolding. what we heard earlier last week from the german foreign minister said that the talks on monday are expected to focus on sanctions. the eu has already placed sanctions on belarus over human rights abuses, but these sanctions could be expanded to target companies and individuals the european gun union believes are involved in human trafficking, driving this crisis on the border. and we heard from the u.n. representatives of the u.n. security council earlier this week and they said that belarus is manufacturing this crisis in order to destabilize the
2:17 am
european union's external borders and extract attention away from its own human rights abuses in belarus. the focus is now on the serious crisis on the border and the humanitarian crisis that's unfolding. thousands of refugees currently stranded in belarus, attempting to make that desperate crossing into poland. poland has beefed up its presence on the border. 15,000 soldiers, including other border officials, preventing people from crossing the border. on saturday late in the evening, they sent a text out to all of those in the area. our cnn team on the ground also received those text messages, warning and urging refugees not to make the crossing. they won't be allowed to cross from poland into germany further, into the eu, as they so desperate hope to do. so there is a serious crisis unfolding here, and on monday, we expect the foreign ministers to, "a," discuss these sanctions, but also what needs to be done in the immediacy to actually tackle this humanitarian crisis.
2:18 am
>> no easy solutions there, i'm sure. nada bashir in london, thanks so much. as covid cases rise in europe, we'll have a live report on efforts to fight the spread of coronavirus across the continent. plus, in california's barrier, a report shows black students lag behind their peers when it comes to covid-19 vaccinations. ahead, we'll talk to an expert about the possible consequences. stay with us. this is the only healthcare system in the country with five nationally ranked hospitals, including two world-renowned academic medical centers, in boston, where biotech innovates daily and our doctors teach at harvard medical school, and where the physicians doing the world-changing research are the ones providing care. there's only one mass general brigham. ♪

2:22 am
voltaren is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory gel for powerful arthritis pain relief. voltaren, the joy of movement. if you live in berlin, you better have a covid shot or proof of recovery before heading out on the town. the german capital is banning the unvaccinated from restaurants, bars, cinemas, and other public venues starting on monday. germany has been hit especially hard with the recent surge of covid infections across europe. the rise in cases has placed a devastating burden on germany's hospitals with beds reaching near capacity in some regions. now german chancellor angela merkel is addressing vaccine hesitancy, telling those who are skeptical it's time to get the shot. >> reporter: difficult weeks lie
2:23 am
before us and as you can see, i am worried. as i'm sure many of you are, too. but let us part from it. a year ago, we were in a similar situation. but back then, we didn't have the most effective means against the virus. the vaccine. now, it's here, and we must not only access it, but quickly. i ask of you, please do it and try to convince your relatives and friends, as well. >> much of the continent is seeing a similar surge in new covid infections. the world health organization says that europe reported nearly 2 million new cases in the last week alone, the highest seven-day increase since the pandemic began, and there were nearly 27,000 new deaths from the virus last week, accounting for more than half of the deaths worldwide during that time. for the latest on the escalating covid crisis in europe, i'm joined by cnn contributor barbie nadeau. this is forcing the return of some tough measures yet again in europe. >> reporter: that's right, you
2:24 am
know, we're looking at lockdowns. right now, we've got the netherlands looking at a three-week modified lockdown. it's not as strict as it was a year ago. we've got austria locking down people who haven't been vaccinated. all of this comes before people expected this fourth wave surge. it's not really winter yet here. there are still people not confined indoors to the way they generally are in the winter. but we're looking at a slowdown in the vaccination rate. it's pla tteaued in a lot of the countries. and the booster campaign has been really slow in a lot of countries, especially here in italy, kim. >> here in the u.s., we're hoping making booster shots available to all americans, which health officials in the biden administration prare pushg for, that that will help us going into the winter. is that the hope in europe as well? >> the hope here is that people get vaccinated for the first
2:25 am
time around. you've got a lot of vaccine hesitancy. and we saw a lot of protests this fall. no vax protests. those people are created sort of superspreader events and they're passing the virus on. because the booster campaign has been so slow to roll out in many european countries, people's immunity from their first vaccines is waning and they're susceptible to getting a reinfection if they aren't getting in booster shot. here in italy, they're thinking they'll get booster shots started in december. and a lot of these people have been vaccinated more than six months ago. we know from the science, that the immunity does start to wane. it's a very conflicted situation across europe, but the fact that there are no travel restrictions between countries. people can move freely, yet one country may be locked down, another one may not be. going into the fall, it looks to be very, very complicated and potentially dangerous.
2:26 am
>> the u.s. is making progress on getting younger people vaccinated since emergency use of the pfizer vaccine was authorized, nearly a million kids have received a dose. a 62% increase in overall vaccination numbers compared to a month ago. but several school districts in northern california say they'll defy the governor's vaccine mandate for students. districts that don't comply risk losing millions of dollars in state funding. tyrone howard is a professor at the black male institute at ucla and joins me now in los angeles. vaccine mandates in schools. almost every physician i've spoken with on this program have told me, it's a great idea to fight covid, especially the rising numbers in kids, but we have never talked about the effect it might have on students, especially students of different races. the "mercury news" analyzed county health department data and in the barrier, about 85% of all students, ages 12 to 17 had
2:27 am
at least one shot. when it comes to african-american students, that number drops to 52% and the numbers are similar for latino students. are we facing a scenario here if those numbers don't improve fast, a addition proportion number of black and brown students will be shut out of their schools later this fall or early next year when the vaccine mandates kick in. that is precisely the fear and concern. what we know is many black adults, many latino adults had a vaccination hesitancy because of safety concerns, because of the quickness which the vaccine was created and because of a long and ugly history of racism in our country. if the adults have that type of hesitancy, it doesn't surprise us that they will be hesitant to have their children vaccinated. but i think there are some consequences that come with that. as students across the country start to move towards a mandate
2:28 am
of saying that students cannot come to school unless they've been vaccinated, that can bode very, very unfavorably for black and brown students. let me be clear about why that's a problem. these are the students that are academically behind because of the pandemic. you take a group of students that are already struggling and behind ec academically behind, it could be really, really, really troubling. >> let's get to the important thing, which is how to turn this around. is it about uh access to vaccines for the kids. they are available in pharmacies, doctor's offices, drive-throughs, mobile clinics. is it giving the kids access or is it you have to work through the parents to get them onboard? what can be done here? >> i think we have to take a three-pronged approach. number one, we have to continue to educate parents about the benefits of the vaccine and lower their fears and increase
2:29 am
their anxiety. as you increase education, you can begin to see more parent who willing to have their parents vaccinated. the second thing is access. we've still seen in lots of parts of our country, we've seen black and brown families don't have the kind of access that their families deserve. these are parents who want their children to have access, but can't get the vaccination. and we have to begin to think really creatively in schools, what will it look like if you have parents who are educated about the vaccine, but deviant their children to have the vaccination. students will have to find some kind of in-person alternative that gives students the benefits of in-person skochooling, witho the alternative of the online format. >> it's a big problem and not a lot of time to turn around. really appreciate your insights, professor tyrone howard, thank you so much. >> thank you. ahead on cnn, why some activists are blaming the high-end construction project

and way of life. some blame climate change while others blame poor urban planning. stephanie basarai reports from lagos. >> reporter: the low-lying community in lagos sits along nigeria's coast. over time, residents say they have watched their ancestral homes and vital public infrastructure disappear. this health center was watched away about ten years ago. >> we don't have anywhere as a health center or a place when if it is something happen, you cannot rush a patient to there. >> reporter: for decades, this community in lagos flooded for erosion due to rising sea levels, but they say these breakers put here about ten years ago have helped to solve some of this issue, but they still remain worried. >> reporter: climate change is

one culprit, but some are also pointing their fingers elsewhere. >> raising the standard for quality of life in nigeria. >> reporter: touted as the next economic capital of africa, ecoatlantic is a new citying built on 6.5 million square meters of land reclaimed from the ocean bed in the victoria island district of lagos. the eroded coastline is protected by an 8.5 kilometer great wall of lagos, but the surrounding community says that the construction has made things worse for them. >> when the project is about to commence, none of us are called. they have to call us. we have to say our own experience that we have. >> reporter: the company behind the project insist it is not to blame and goes so far as to say that the victoria island area of lagos would not exist without
2:37 am
the project. >> a contract between ourselves and the lagos state to effectively arrest the erosion of our beach that was threatening the very existence of victoria island and in term find a permanent solution. that permanent solution is ecoatlantic city. >> reporter: but they're saying this has caused it to worsen. >> well, that's not the case. >> reporter: but that is the case, environmental advocates say. >> if the people on the island claim it's because of the eko atlantic city, they cannot be wrong. because water will definitely find its level. >> where that water does go will

impact those here forever. are you worried that this community will sink underwater? >> the water carry a lot of the community away. we are crying, this is going to demolish this video. >> stephanie bastari, cnn, lagos nigeria. a doctors group says that military forces killed five on saturday. they also report numerous injuries from live ammunition and people exposed to tear gas. demonstrators took to the streets on saturday to protest military rule after pro-democracy activists cs for marches nationwide. larry now joins me from nairobi, kenya. what more do we know about what happened? >> we know these five people died as a result of the police and security officials using live ammunition. four of them marches across
2:39 am
sudan. the fifth one is said to have choked on tear gas, that was deployed in some of these marches. the protesters are criticizing the security officers in sudan for using live ammunition in peaceful protests. this is another round of civil disobedience that's been called by the sudan professional association, by local resistance committees that have been raising concern about this military takeover since october 25, when that coup happened. and the man who was in charge of sudan strengthened his grip on power a few days ago by appointing a new sovereign council without any civilian members of the government. there's been a power-sharing agreement since the former leader of sudan was thrown out, after again popular protests back in april of 2019. but now huge international concern that all of those gains have been eroded. . now word of yet another arrest. this time a member of the media.
2:40 am
what can you tell us about that? >> that's right. we know that the al jazeera bureau chief in sudan, the network is saying that police raided his house and took him into custody and al jazeera says they call on the authorities to release him immediately and allow its journalists operate unhindered, free to practice their profession without fear or intimidation. this is a new front in the actions that the military has taken. there's still members, like you mentioned of the civilian government of the power sharing agreement, the civilian members who have not been released since they were arrested on october 25. even the primary abdullah, though he's still in house custody, but he's not been able to give any public statements, he's not been seen in public since that coup back on october 25th. >> more troubling news from tha.
2:41 am
ecuador's president called an emergency cabinet meeting on saturday to address the lately eruption of deadly clashes in the nation's prisons. apparently gang violence killed dozens of inmates in one of ecuador's most overcrowded prisons. >> reporter: the government of ecuador has called a crisis cabinet after at least 68 inmates were killed and 25 were injured in clashes in the penitentiary in the coastal city of gullakill. this is the same prison where 118 inmates were killed in september in similar crashes. in both cases, authorities put the blame on rival gangs, competing for control of the prison. and the president of ecuador did not speak to the nation, but took to twitter to demand that the constitutional court to pass
2:42 am
new regulation aimed at establishing orders in the jail. ecuador's jails are notoriously overcrowded and clashes between inmates are common. in the year so far, more than 300 inmates were killed in prison violence, according to the countries of prison service. and the entire prison system has been under a state of emergency since september, so due to the ongoing wave of ballots. the inmates are often well armed with high-caliber guns and explosives. just on friday, the ecuador police announced that it had seized seven firearms and 27 packages of ammunition that were being smuggled inside the literal penitentiary, but that could not prevent from escalating once again. at least 900 policemen and the armed forces were deployed to the prison on saturday as more
