dog warns that voters warns voters opposed to an auto is a threat to democracy plus. gruber i'm very frugal for me and my son for always together whatever i went he was always with me why did we get surprised even though . we followed one family's efforts to find their nine year old son who has been missing since the devastating earthquake and tsunami in indonesia. i'm sorry kelly welcome to the program un climate scientists have issued their strongest warning yet on the risks of rising temperatures they say we need to take on president of steps to averse the worst effects of climate change and that we need to take those steps now they include changing the way that we consume energy travel and construct buildings if we fail to act we face more heat waves flooding

and extreme weather. scenes like this could become more frequent if the world does not act now that's the message of scientists on the un's climate change panel whose job was to work out what governments must do to implement the parents a quarter twenty fifteen 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 do research just compare to two degrees or higher every bit of warming matters . the goal needs to be implemented by twenty thirty but scientists fear will fail to hit it one immediate effect of failure would be more global heatwaves the resulting droughts would mean poorer harvests impacting the global food supply and

harming countries that rely heavily on agriculture. other parts of the world would suffer from an increase in heavy rains and hurricanes these weather patterns combined with rising sea levels could lead to more frequent and severe flooding the scientists on the un's panel say it's the final call governments everyone must act the message is over to governments the stage we've told you before the scientific facts the evidence the course it is up to the governments no to decide what to do with it. avoiding scenes like this will be hugely expensive say the scientists but it has to be done and it's still possible if the world acts now. and we are joined now by. dean she is the head of the environment team here and sonia i mean warnings about rising temperatures about climate change are not uncommon but oh what is different about this report and why should we be so conserved. well
3:04 pm
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 in play here cation for people's livelihoods for food security people 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 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
3:05 pm
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 political well right 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 the most important thing is do something don't just sit there and close your eyes and imagine that
3:06 pm
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 something again the head of environment team thank you. to brazil now where far right politician you're both an auto has won the first round presidential election he won al face a runoff in three weeks time i guess left wing are for. also narrow attacked it's attracted support by promising to fight corruption and restore what he called traditional values his opponents say he poses
