this is g.w. news coming to live from the u.n. issues an ocean view warning on climate change it says be must act now to prevent disasters that aka gilbert temperatures rise in march full of the it's called the next two years probably the most important in human history or so coming up far right politician yeah you know both old otto has won the first round of brazil's presidential election and he faces the left wing candidate for non-doing of god in the runoff in three weeks time has warned voters that his rival is

a trip to democracy. and as the nobel prize season goes to a close exclusively to one of the recipients did his look really cold brittle of the nobel peace prize for his efforts to stop sexual violence in war. but in a warm welcome to you. u.n. climate scientists have issued the strongest warning get on the risks of rise in temperature as they say we need to take unprecedented steps to avert the worst effects of climate change and that we need to take the steps now these include changing the way we consume energy travel and construct buildings the report warns if we fail to act we will 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 will be more global heat waves resulting droughts would mean poor 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 at the stage we've told you what the scientific facts the evidence the course it is up to the governments know to decide what to do with it. avoiding scenes like this will be hugely expensive so the scientists but it has to be done a list of all possible if the world acts now. joining me now is a funny idea and she's the head of the environment desk welcome so on into what is different and so significant about this latest report. well with the parasite dream and countries around the world agreed to limit the temperature increase to two degrees or preferably one point five degrees of warming and it turns out that there

seems to be a much bigger difference in impact between one point five and two degrees than previously understood and that's the finding of the city is the scientific body so we're talking about impacts on earth systems that we as humans depend on take coral reefs so under one point five degrees of warming they would we would still have coral reefs they'd be reduced seventy to ninety percent but they would still exist now if you take the two degree scenario coral reefs would be all but wiped out about ninety nine percent would be gone this report has said so consider the impact of this on the people who make their living off the sea their food security would be at risk it seems the upshot is one point five degrees is the new two degrees in terms of the global warming limit that we need to strive for and if what is going on for urgent action as we had one has to say it's now over to the governments can the governments react fast enough do you think and is there the political will to do so. well what the i.p.c.c. report indicates is that we certainly can act fast enough there is still time to

turn things around it lays out a road map for doing so so i think the question is really should be not do we can we do something but do we want to act on this despite the paris agreement there's been a stunning lack of political will on the part of governments we're headed for three degrees warming with current commitments and what many people are saying is that nothing short of a mass popular movement will be necessary for people to come together in collective action and demand that governments implement policies to change these systems that the eggs that coal lead fossil fuels in the ground collective action is a very powerful thing and really could make a difference and so did germany on the whole it has a very good reputation force environmental policies yet today there have been protests also outside the german embassy in london what the activists concerned about. well i think it's more accurate to say that germany had a positive environmental reputation with its energy transition and merkel's leadership on climate protection but that has largely faded so now germany is

struggling to muster up the political will for a timely exit from coal the absolute dirtiest fossil fuel and what the protesters are protesting was the cutting down of the forest for a gigantic coal mine one of the largest in europe so germany has given up not only . as is continuing to mine coal it's given up on its self-imposed goal of reducing emissions forty percent by two thousand and twenty which is not happening either so internationally many see germany now as it really having back slid on climate and energy issues so hadn't had to environment desk thank you very much for that. if we're not being the operative at some other stories making news around the turkey has demanded to search the saudi arabian consulate in istanbul for a dissident sound the germans according to local t.v. reports jamal disappeared last week after a visit to his country's consulate turkish authorities believe he was killed while inside the building. around one hundred twenty refugees have arrived in malta after

far as politician jai eatable sanaa who has won the first round of business presidential election grabbing forty six percent of the votes he now face of runoff in three weeks time against a left winger for not doha dodd who finished a distant second while sonata attracted support by promising to fight corruption and restore what he courted traditional values his opponents say he poses a threat to democracy in the largest economy in latin america. i was able so not our supporters believe he's going to turn the country around and sunday's results gave them reason to celebrate their candidate share of the vote has surged past pollsters predictions. so the country is under siege within the government and on the streets we need to end this and he's the most capable of doing so no doubt about it now my stomach. was with

a big problem in the largest financial giant was to me was. also no row didn't appear in person after the election results were announced the full military officer was staffed at a campaign rally last month and doctors are still wary of his health but he did appear on social media. and i'm sure that in the second round we will intensify our efforts and will obtain the victory. the sixty three year old has down to crack down on corruption and criminals. but opponents have condemned incendiary comments from paulson are all about women and minority groups during the campaign. also now is also being criticized for his plan to give police officers a free a hand to shoot drug traffickers his price for the military dictatorship the group brazil from nine hundred sixty four to nine hundred ninety five has also alarmed critics. it's opponent

a leftist candidate for nando how says electing the bolts in iraq. pose a risk to democracy. told supporters he would now concentrate on the second round and called for calm. who took his speech doesn't mean we will face that debate with respect we go into the democratic battlefield with just one weapon beyond him and we don't carry guns those are the most. the final run off for the presidency as shadowed for the twenty eighth of october. the nobel prize is that has wrapped up today with the award for outstanding work in economics we have more on that in just a bit but first we have an exclusive interview with one of the seals nobel peace prize when us dennis look we get won the prize along with the alert on we're trying to stop the use of sexual violence in warfare in his native congo did you have you asked him how you felt about the fact that the nobel committee had chosen to highlight this issue. for many i conceive in my country for many people

even don't understand what it means. to hate. as a weapon of war they even don't understand how rape can destroy not only the victim but how our help is destroying the family as a community and or as a country. and i think that to really put attention on this question for me is very important women are really fighting a lot to break silence when this question is that in this region it was very difficult even if you have or evidence that. the women who was there and the she have troops wounded in a very bad way or genital most of the time the men will come with as a reasons because it was

a shame for to talk about what's happened but to this i can see is that women are more struggle. to come directly to the hospital or to police and say see what happened to me and i nor who is responsible for it i think that to talk about it is the way. to just tell it to the perpetrators that if you mess. against me. everyone will know and the shouldn't but the show will be to you and it seems that we have to look then looked to transfer that the shed be shifted from victim to perpetrators. the president talking to do things the chorus of pinned this is nobel peace prize and today's frys is a nobel prize for economics and ben is here to tell us about that thank you amrita it's going to two americans and the topic is very current governments continuously

in car just to spend economies strive to grow and we all have to be more productive but at what cost to the world we live in this next pair of a colonists on the owner and quite a bit of cash for their work looking into economic growth and global warming awarding the prize to william nordhaus and paul romer the nobel committee said it was honoring two economists who've been tackling the most urgent questions of our age climate change and sustainable economic growth this year's laureates provide us with tools that are crucial for understanding how the economy interacts with nature and with knowledge and which policies help generate sustained and sustainable long term economic growth. william de nordhaus is a professor at yale university and an expert on environment and climate economics you combines economics with natural sciences to show how the economy changes the climate even as climate change affects the economy nordhaus shares the prize with

paul m. romer of new york university romas work focuses on how innovation drives prosperity the problems of developing countries and the distribution of wealth both laureates of advice governments and international financial institutions in the past. they both welcome the prize which comes with the million dollar check a lot of things almost didn't quite work out. i got to farm called this morning and i didn't answer either one because i thought it was some damn call. i wasn't i wasn't expecting any regrets. awarding the nobel prize for economics sciences to two economists to put environment climate change and social justice of the center of their research is a clear signal to us president donald trump has removed the us from the powers climate accord paul romer wants to encourage governments businesses and households to tackle global warming themselves it is enquiringly talkable. to produce

carbon there's some trade are but once we start to try and reduce carbon emissions we'll be surprised but it wasn't as hard as we anticipated q some questions yes we have a gentleman and i don't have a comment from to get your business joins us to tell us more about these two guys again the other two men who've won the oh yeah tell us a bit more about these men so william nortel's of yale university he's called the the father of climate change economics he's been doing this kind of research since the seventy's he's a true pioneer in that field and then we have paul roma of new york university he small looking into innovation technological change and how this drives growth they've both been rumored to actually win the nobel prize for a couple of years now and they see to finally have and i guess it's interesting that he's been working on this topic for such a long time because it is.
