and nineteen ha not forgotten d.w.t. november focus. this is the the news of life from birth why did a brand new boeing jet fall from the sky divers in indonesia find one of the black boxes from the right in the crash on monday minutes after taking off from jakarta investigators hope it will help explain the cause of the tragedy that claimed the lives of nearly two hundred people also on the program. a major new study says the

this could help them one of the plane's black box recorders recovered among parts of the boeing seven three seven plane. now that we've retrieved the black box. we hope to unravel the mystery as to why the plane crashed. one of the salvage teams said they dug deep to find the box it was buried in the debris on the sea floor examination of the wreckage continues but it's tricky and slow going much of the plane remains hidden beneath the surface. slowly the bodies of the missing are being returned to land. families of beside themselves entire villages banding together to support them as they grieve. once victims are down defied funerals can be held. identification presents a huge challenge for insect teams examined body parts and check fingerprints and

dental records. clothes and other belongings are also help in confirming who died in the crash. the details are related to my husband's shoe we just wanted to be sure because those in charge of identifying the victims say we can help them with identification but they're not his shoes they're different they're red so i can confirm they are not his knowing why the lion air flight went down nearly fifteen minutes after takeoff may help grief stricken families come to terms with the tragedy but it's likely to take a long time for investigators to analyze the black box data and provide answers as to why this new aircraft crashed into the sea. southeast asia correspondent batten hearty welcome past and let's start with this black box which has been retrieved and what sort of information does it hold. well
6:04 pm
that depends very much on which black box they actually found because initially they thought they found the flight data recorder that would record technical information from the flight from all of the instruments from the engine information like pressure vertical acceleration speed direction altitude these kinds of things but also what they're not but there have been at the press conference they said they're not one hundred percent sure yet if that was actually the device that they found because possibly they found the cockpit voice recorder that would record audio from the cockpit that would be conversations between the pilot and the copilot for example or with any other member of the crew possibly but also warning signals that. any instruments in the cockpit for example that would help investigators piece together what happened in the final moments of that flight so we don't we're not sure yet which one of those recorders they found but either way
6:05 pm
it will hold vital information for the investigators when they try to figure out what caused this accident feel so it's so it does look like we are getting closer to finding out. yes definitely but also the investigators said that it's going to take a while it's going to take a few weeks to download the data from that device that they found today and of course they're still looking for that second black box and then they might release preliminary report in a month from now but a final analysis will not be released until. a few months later maybe six months even and they'll not want to jump to conclusions as to what caused this crash because that will that will have far reaching consequences still it's taken several days to to find this device is not unusual have they faced particular.
6:06 pm
well they know pretty much exactly where that plane went down and where they lost contact it's only a few kilometers off the coast of java and also the sea isn't very deep there it's thirty to thirty five meters but apparently what's been difficult is the current that seems to be very strong also the sea floor seems to be very muddy and also apparently there are energy pipelines down there so those are all things that have made it difficult for the teams to find pieces of that plane but these flight recorders obviously they found it because they emit signals that help the divers locate them and of course the divers that went down they had equipment that helped them receive those signals and that's how they circled in on the flight recorder but we heard in the report even once they had located it it wasn't easy to retrieve because they had to dig it out of the mud and from under the debris so now they're looking for that second flight recorder and they're hoping going to find it along
6:07 pm
with the fuselage of the plane will. you say as your correspondent passed in heartache thank you. the world's oceans are warming faster than previously thought the conclusion of a major new study the findings published in the june nature mean that global warming may also be further found some previously stated scientists reach these conclusions after using new calculations of the gases escaping the oceans. oceans that lead to the destiny of wildlife and coral reefs and cause to melt faster. from to do science can tell us more workers so how serious is this well it is quite serious this new study suggests that that the oceans actually retain sixty percent more heat per year than we saw before in the last twenty five years it means that they've sixty percent sixty percent more each year that means that they heat up much faster than we thought this makes the goal to limit global warming to to put
6:08 pm
to create degrees celsius or one point five degree celsius much harder to reach. this research or hold up what does what will this mean well that means. let's say origin now we see that the global climate the global climate has heated heated up since the late nineteenth century by one degree and we experience the impacts so the study says that the future scenarios which. will see extreme weather hurricanes droughts floods will see the sea levels rise we will see species go extinct and many more. those future scenarios are not changed by the study but it says that this whole. dramatic scenario but a cure much faster much earlier than we thought so how did they come to these conclusions and what did scientists do they actually have
6:09 pm
a new approach they change how they measure to see temperature anomaly is it's measured by floating devices floats which are drifted in the water and they now didn't measure the water correct touristic spot corrector six of the atmosphere just imagine. if you leave your coke or your mineral water if you want in the sun it will heat up right and what will happen it will release it will lose its gas and it will get stale. this is the same project. so it's in the oceans so when the oceans heat up they won't have the ability anymore to to hold the gases to hold the energy and they will release it into the atmosphere so the scientists measured the atmosphere they measured oxygen and carbon dioxide mostly in the atmosphere and by doing this they could see how much energy how much gas the ocean released and that's how they saw how much the ocean heated up ok so i can't see any good news in
6:10 pm
here let's let's let's bring all this round to the climate agreement which was to limit global warming to under two degrees celsius it sounds like vis recalculation means that there's no point yeah that's right it actually it's the paris agreement of two degrees i think is really unrealistic at this time scientists calculated last year that the probability that we could stick to those two degrees that we could limit global change to two degrees is at about five percent which is really little so it seems unrealistic even though we have this small hope of five percent and. if three acts really drastically we need to change our way of life to. make use of us. no good news in that at all but thank you thank you. germany's chancellor is in ukraine for meetings are aimed at strengthening ties and continuing peace efforts in the country's east anglia macko has just met with petro
6:11 pm
poroshenko president here ukrainian officials say the two leaders for some discuss flashpoint is using couldn't the controversial expansion of a russian gas pipeline and the ongoing conflict in crimea as a macro mediated peace agreement between russia and ukraine three years ago though it has been repeatedly violated. to move the w correspondent nicholas conley and the ukrainian capital can name the two leaders met and held a press conference what have we learned good evening phil well today's press conference was notable for what wasn't said as for what was said we kept on waiting for the difficult issues between kevin berlin and there are some like the north stream to pipeline that germany's dealing with russia that ukraine hates and also maybe some criticism from angela merkel of the slow pace of reform
6:12 pm
here the slow fight against corruption but it didn't come instead anglo merkel was at pains to stress germany's commitment to ukraine to its territorial integrity to mention all kinds of positive social sort of societal projects language learning science and it's just been the two countries the only time it really got serious was when they spoke about eastern ukraine and all that merkel was adamant the mint's process frustrating slow as it is was and is the only show in town at least that's michael's opinion on this all right what will give him the she's played such a pivotal role in trying to mediate that particular agreement to why has it not succeeded. the problem about minsk is that it proposes lots of very worthy and very worthwhile steps to a political solution but it doesn't give a clear roadmap of how those should happen while the shooting goes on the front line for it in any case it's not going to start no political reform is going to
6:13 pm
stop while soldiers and civilians are killed at it keep being killed but even if they could implement a more a more stable ceasefire it seems unlikely that either side is really willing by the separatists in ukraine government to show weakness to compromise to go take steps towards the other side in terms of offering up concessions so for now it does seem log jam said and who didn't disagree with that there doesn't seem to be any kind alternative in sight five years ago ukraine was all of the news because of the mind on revolution pots of which was problem to it which was prompted in part by design to align more closely with the e.u. is there still much support for this now with the polls all show a huge majority for e.u. membership but when you talk to people and ask what they really think it's realistic if they'll see it in their lifetime the whole question looks a lot more difficult lots of people have been disappointed by what they see as
6:14 pm
a lack of involvement in gauge went from the european side with ukraine since my down and there is a growing tendency to just give up and to not expect any real change on that side having said that it's when you ask people what alternatives they see they don't really in their majority have some kind of vision of how ukraine could be an independent unity somehow between the european union and russia so it's a difficult one emotionally that if you want to get in but in the analytical brains many people are clear that the europeans aren't in a hurry to let them in. calmly in care found here. just hundred mind your of our top story this hour divers in indonesia have found the flight data recorder from the line at plane that crashed on monday killing one hundred eighty nine people to help the device will shed nights on the coast of the tragedy. i have both here at the top all feel yeah i'll get how
6:15 pm
alpha's will behave if you're not business updates in just a moment michel which i mean there's always of course the website that's t w dot com have a good day. going to how to. they make a commitment. they find solutions. and stronger.
