faster this week boredom certainly isn't the name of the game. the older of that report marker krueger's with me now so this was the big deal about cloud gaming well it gives you play a more opportunities and it works like the streaming services we already know like netflix as long as you have a stable internet connection but this is the few chips there's no need anymore to install upgrade to the games and here is you can see you can imagine the amount of data that will be transmitted for some of the games and why they already have the quantity of hollywood movies apropos hollywood now we know all about the sexist problems and the hollywood but the gaming industry has had sex has problems as well well of course but it changed a lot with all remember the 1st female characters in the games she will sex objects men are still dominating the community but today we have
2:03 pm
a lot of strong women in the games for example in assassin's creed they can choose if you hear is a man or women and of course there are so many famous and strong female players in the community today because the number of women in the gaming is around 40 percent so against change the industry change but. very often the tone between the place in the community is very sexist it sexist and many women feel really insulted every time they play games also have a reputation of being pretty aggressive lots of fine signals a car chases but actually it's not really true is that you have the best selling game of all times guess what it is tetris well the classic from the eighty's and still very successful and that brings us to another trend at games come and this is farming simulation in real time what it is in real time sounds very.

wildfires in the amazon in brazil french president the money will mccraw has called it an international crisis tweeting our house is burning literally the amazon rain forest the longs which he wrote produced 20 percent of our planet's oxygen is on fire but brazil's president's higher balsa r.-o. has criticized what he calls foreign interference slamming mccrone remarks as sensational. he also says brazil lacks the resources to fight these fires more controversy only he's also accused environmental groups of starting them for political gain now as we report the effect of these fires are being felt well beyond the locations of the flames. tough post full in the afternoon and the heavens. smoke and clouds splashed out the sun. everything went dark when i came out of the bathroom and it was night. unbelievable nights but
2:10 pm
not nighttime the government says it's just the weather but climate experts say the cause is 200 kilometers away where pristine forest is going up in flames as wildfires consume the natural world there are far more places than usual at the start of the dry season farmers are also suffering. we planted man york and corn here it's all gone so bad farmers may be victims of the flames but some may be the finest starters big agriculture is one of the few success stories in brazil and has an ally in right wing president. asked if farmers were responsible for the fires he blamed environmentalist's again maybe the farmers everybody's a suspect but the biggest suspects are the ngos the destruction is driving environmentalist's onto the streets they're fearful and they're angry at the accusations leveled at them. while they have
2:11 pm
a good. statement of responsible everyone knows that the environmental organizations are against climate change and for reforestation. brazil's forests a burning at an unprecedented rate with unknown consequences day turned to night in sao paolo is only the beginning. and we're happy to be joined now by her also many expert on sustainability from university here in berlin she's now researching deforestation thanks so much for joining us can you tell us why have these fires reach the levels the extreme levels are at now and and who's responsible for this. as you've heard there's been an 80 percent surge this year from previous dry seasons so yes in the amazon but in the dry season people use 5 years to get a forest. and farm lands right now in brazil was a current government situation and unprecedented won't it is promoting organized
2:12 pm
crime for forests carrying using fire yes and and also killing of indigenous people who are trying to protect that and destroy the land ok so you're saying there's a there's an element of criminality criminality and organized organized crime for that you know terry the amazon produces 20 percent more oxygen are these farmers threatening our oxygen supply for sure for sure the amazon is really important for 3 reasons one it's a hotspot of biodiversity. it's the last vestiges where indigenous people in the pot or in the natural ecosystem and as you just mentioned it plays a really important climate functions now scientific models show that if you get 25 percent of the amazon you have the oxygen you have an effect on the oxygen level which affects the climate and which reduces for example agricultural productivity
2:13 pm
up to 2550 percent in the region. to 40 percent breadbasket in the south american countries affected more than that the whole americas' much of the america is affected so this is having huge input and we're talking about a huge implications to the. ok so when you say the americas not just south america but north america as well as what's going to be affected by this you're missing the criminality involved i'd like to get back on to that both so narrow has been loosening the protections environmental protections for the amazon is there a connection between the loosening of the protections and this organized crime you were mentioning for example in the deforestation you know. he's loosening and vironment the laws he's he's undermining indigenous rights and indigenous people have been the one fighting against clearing of that. so it's quite clear he's
2:14 pm
promoting organized crimes for us clearing. and right now in europe this type. of dismantling of environmental noise and undermining of indigenous rights we have a trade there was muck with all countries to promote trade so what you think you know. right now you can do business. because. face but we should respect that. he is this munching these environmental laws and signing a trade agreement. to soar you trade deal was was hailed as you know as a major breakthrough and a huge success in a time of an increasing trade war between the u.s. and china for example it doesn't include many global multinationals and it makes it easier for them to be active in places like brazil and in the rain forests global multinationals the one who would benefit from the americas or agreement for example
2:15 pm
have a special responsibility to protect the rain forests of the amazon yet they have a special responsibility. from. that they are trying to they are trying to. implement different stations some of them are trying to implement difference to him free. the issue is not me the multi national is right now but rather the governance situation right now but the not really it's promoting ok what do you think about what's needed to be done to bring these fires under control as the french president manuel mccall saying in international efforts needed both services he doesn't have the resources anyway is that what it's going to take a number of countries trying to solve this problem you saw recently that germany suspend. german aid to brazil what was the response of both the narrow he said that brazil doesn't need the money and. that's
2:16 pm
basically said agency did some of the most fantastic work in brazil monitoring of the frustration f.i.o.s. and immediate enforcement he had this month playing there was amazing infrastructure so i don't think it's a question of resources right now it's a question of funding to go to will ok and would you sing stone to them i think the situation is going to get was and the have to message right now i think i think if europe is really interested in doing anything for the amazon they need to support the indigenous people who are already very well coordinated in south america and who are trying to already protect the amazons and to we need to use that we need we have signed it trade and we need to block the trade deal unless we see efforts to implement the pirates agreement i stipulated in the trade agreement. thank you so very much for coming in today. was mentioned president tomorrow mccraw wants to
2:17 pm
put the amazon fires at the top of the agenda of the g. 7 summit that starts tomorrow directs mccoll will be hosting talks by the leaders of major economies on a wide range of topics from tensions are run to protests in hong kong and the bleak outlook for the world economy. but the main theme of this year's meeting is the fight against inequality in all its forms there's war. in developed nations the gap between the rich and the poor has reached its highest level in the past 50 years the average income of the richest 10 percent of the population is now about 9 times that of the poorest 10 percent. and. the anger of those that feel left behind was most popular in france this year's g 700.
