since been working out what governments must do to implement the paris accord and they warn that it will be no easy task first climate change is already affecting people ecosystems and livelihoods all around the world second limiting warming to one point five degrees is not impossible but will require unprecedented transitions in all aspects of society third there are clear benefits to keep warming to one point five degrees such as compared to two degrees or higher every bit of warming matters the goal needs to be implemented by twenty thirty but scientists fear we could fail to hit it if we don't act now one of the most immediate effects of failure would be an increase in global heat waves some african regions that currently experience one to three heat waves a year would see them double in frequency more droughts mean poor harvests impacting the global food supply and harming countries that rely on agriculture.

other parts of the world was suffer from an increase in heavy rains and hurrican these weather patterns combined with rising sea levels could lead to more frequent and severe flooding scientists estimate the forty six million people live in areas where they are likely to become victims of temporary or even permanent floods the scientists on the un's panel say it's the final call governments everyone must act the message is over to governments at this stage we've told you what you know the scientific facts the evidence the course it is up to the governments no to decide what to do with it. voiding seems like this will be hugely expensive said scientists but it has to be done and it's still possible if the world acts now. and we are joined now by. the head of the environment team here and sonia i mean warnings about rising temperatures about climate change are not uncommon but what
1:04 pm
is different about this report and why should we be so conserved well it seems that this one point five degree limit is a lot more important than was originally considered so the difference between one point five and two degrees of warming is really a massive difference as this scientific report has now shown take for example coral reefs under one point five degrees they'll survive though it will still be some reefs will lose seventy to ninety percent of them but there will be some there under two degrees we're looking at almost a complete decimation ninety nine percent of all the coralie reefs will be gone and that is a completely huge implications for people's livelihoods for food security people who live off the sea so that's just one example of how this difference actually is a lot more significant they're saying one point five is the new two degrees the report also calling for dramatic action like transforming the economy at

a speed on a scale that has no documented historic precedent what does that mean. well the skill you could say is precedented because if you consider how our societies have changed over the past centuries and how our energy systems have changed how our mobility has changed that has actually that scale has been seen but what would be new is the speed with which it would have to take place because basically with the massive cuts that would be required for one point five degrees we're talking forty five percent by twenty thirty so basically the next few years will be very decisive for the future of whether we can still attain this limit or not and we all know that i mean one of the issues right now is really a political well by where we're seeing some opposition to the paris climate accord among some governments around the world but what can all of us do ourselves. well
1:06 pm
the most important thing is do something don't just sit there and close your eyes and imagine that this isn't happening because it is happening it will dramatically affect us and affect our future generations so take action and probably the most effective thing you can do is come together with other people and demand. of our governments that they take action that they implement the policies that need to be implemented hold our politicians accountable of course voting in the right people as well those are all things that we can do song again the head of the environment team thank you thing. for a politician. has won the first round of brazil's presidential election he will now face a runoff in three weeks time against the left winger fernando had also not zero attracted support by promising to fight corruption and restore what he called traditional
