1:03 am

1:04 am
activists around the world took to the streets in the forth global fridays for future strike they're demanding the government step up their efforts to cut carbon emissions and they're sending a message to the u.n. climate change conference which begins in madrid next week now the inaction a new report released this week details just how far the world has fallen behind on its pledges to produce greenhouse gas emissions scientists say that procrastination means the world is in danger of missing its chance to limit the effects of global warming and that makes the students message even more urgent. in berlin it might have been the consumer frenzy of black friday for some but on the streets here and around the world people were on strike for fridays for a future a party atmosphere pervaded alongside the placards some took a dip in the city's river spray to draw attention to rising sea levels others
1:05 am
simply felt compelled to demonstrate that it is and why are we here well there is a massive climate crisis unknown is doing anything it's crazy to to us the small 30 in the u.s. washington to hand the younger generation on the streets although perhaps not in such numbers. but the message was the same. we're asking leaders to take action on the climate crisis the civically today we're holding a funeral to demonstrate to the public and to a leaders everything that we're going to lose in a climate crisis and everything that we've already lost. on the other side of the world in australia the call to arms of our house is on fire led to protests a metaphor for some but for others here in sydney it's a painful reality. i
1:06 am
think. really. what. residents here are living on the front line of this crisis and the effects apparent if you saw the. shape it was some people couldn't come out because of the smoke it was long. really really telling that people cannot actually. i mean it's so bad in india the roots of this movement were clearly evident in the turnout with an impassioned call to galvanize the you. youth into something of a revolution. if you look really really important for children today but not just right as a new generation because it's all about the system change in cuba it's about finally getting your wife is good about it moving does not match you know an environment we live. on have over 2 nobodies remake of. south
1:07 am
africa 2 had demonstrations with some laying that bodies on the ground to make a statement about the impact that black friday's rampant consumerism is having on the global ecosystem. well the world is further off course than ever before when it comes to meeting the goals of the paris climate agreement scientists are warning that the world needs to take drastic action soon in order to get us back on track and avoid the worst effects of climate change that's the focus of a new and dire report released by the united nations this week the emissions gap report lays it all out saying that the gap in our efforts to tackle global warming emissions is big and it is getting bigger by the day 1st here is the trajectory that we are on right now if we stay on this course under our current policies the world is on track for more then 3 degrees celsius rise this century that's
1:08 am
predicted to lead to catastrophic environmental effects now here is where we need to be in order to keep the global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees celsius that's the most optimistic goal agreed to in paris to get there and it looks steep emissions need to be slashed by 55 percent overall in the next decade in other words it cut more than 7 percent per year the problem is we're not anywhere near that goal in fact last year global carbon dioxide emissions rose by nearly 2 percent and the longer we wait the deeper and faster those emissions cuts will need to be and joining me is the lead author of that gap reports. john christiansen he is speaking to us from copenhagen tonight now 1st of all thank you for taking the time to speak with us this is in fact the 10th year in a row that the u.n. has released an emissions gap report just walk us through one of the key takeaways this year is there anything new in that report. thank you for that in addition to
1:09 am
come on. i mean if you the very last year you could say we're talking about his loyalists i think the main reason for issuing it every year is that it really is a wake up call before the good of the group that this is the digital auction this year is really crucial because next year is the year were purchased with this 2nd paris they're also supposed to slip past 60 and we're really urging is that not only the plans for the. pairs but also that much faster than what they promised us . earlier we saw in those images of students on strike across the globe some students to try striking every friday for months now the younger generation they seem to get it i mean what about the adults though you mentioned this conference coming up in madrid a hard politicians dragging their feet why are they doing that why are they taking action. yeah i mean i 1st kind of been waiting for the young ones also to wake up because the future we're talking about it looks bleak with climate outlooks i
1:10 am
mean i think it's because politicians generally deal with the short term the deal well for that you know with broad so i think that in 4 years that really long term big is this little problems are really difficult to sell but i think the right is the future as a really imperative in the beginning especially in europe but i think a spirit of conscience we saw the european parliament election electing the most. dangerous and that this government here the whole parliament justice in the process of getting a new climate all over 7 to 1230 they don't have all the tools ready to get there but that will be the vision of. it and of course that pressure coming from the young generation is. but talk about the biggest culprits when it comes to c o 2 emissions we're talking about developed countries in specific g. 20 nations what are nations like the us like china and germany what are they doing
1:11 am
or not doing to tackle their c o 2 emissions. one minute i think they are doing something and it is not that this thing happening i mean you see chinese building ruble power really really big scale but at the same time they're having quite high growth rates of their farming that keep relying mediocre at the same time so it's just it's not a black and white victim that said there is a lot of british ships in between i think what has happened in the last just 5 years or so is that wind and solar has really moved up and become fairly competitive in almost all countries and i think that will in itself true market forces also drive things faster but it needs to be with a policy that makes that possible and i think a lot of countries haven't realized that they need to put in place that sort of conducive political environment today that transition and we are talking about a real transitional specially of energy and transport we need to move towards the televising power completely but actually have to shift the end really bring it down very quickly and i think in the same time transport lost it's
1:12 am
a bit of action that is a challenge for the process but that's where the really big things are the nation's forest agriculture is also a big part of those really a bit sick to some you talk about right private i mean consumerism and efficient uses those also. and you mentioned i mean this report was purposefully bill east before cop 25 that's happening madrid next week this is the 25th un climate change conference is this the most important one in your pain. i mean that's the difficulty sadly most of the bomb what we had was the buildup to this the pair's agreement is a unique piece of international agreement that we haven't seen before this year is kind of a mystery part of us and the new this is the next big one will be the one next year because that's where we are looking to get a new national plants and see if we're 10 biggest political lives the ambition so
1:13 am
this is kind of and it turns from and i think the universe moves from cheated suspended still choose cherry here and they're going to be the 1st country coming up with that time a lot of the focus will be on a vision of how to reduce and convince israel this is the way to go so it's very important but in terms of decision making mixi is it's the big one right now it's an important one now and actually also the 1st big climate summit since the u.s. announced that they were formally or they started the process of formally withdrawing from the paris clime agreement how much pressure do you think there will be on the united states and president trump to stay in paris climate green yeah i'm sure there is another question and i'm not sure if that is having much effect but i mean what we see at the same time this is was last parent of the year society a lot. more progressive states a lot of the biggest cities of the big companies are moving in here with its impact they're not impacted by the stuff it was a lot of things are happening in the u.s.
1:14 am
in spite of what some central government policy is this in reality a lot of it in the u.s. is done by seconds it's a lot on the agenda as those leaders coming together in madrid next week john christianson the lead author of the un emissions gap report thank you so much for joining us. very virtuous thank you. maltese media sources are reporting that prime minister joseph got is expected to resign his government has become increasingly embroiled in the political and legal crisis sparked by the murder of journalist daphne carr was not believed she was investigating government corruption when she was killed in a car bomb attack 2 years ago. at 3 in the morning prime minister joseph gave a press conference he was upset by the investigation into death. as murder and the
1:15 am
alleged involvement of his close colleagues for us this was not just a murder this was a major case that shook our democracy many people greatly doubt that actually did everything possible to solve the murder of journalist. she was killed by a car bomb on october 16th 2017 last week the investigation into who contracted the murder led to the maltese energy entrepreneur york and finish allegedly he transferred money via dubai to companies in panama these companies apparently belong to most cuts tourism minister conrad miti and his chief of staff keith embry both resigned earlier this week karl want to go ahead researched suspected corruption at the highest government level this week many demanded most cuts resignation they say he has blood on his hands because he trying to protect officials say 3 ball fees will $1.00 sentence we investigate cambria found no evidence and released him they want us to believe that according to maltese media
1:16 am
most cut intends to announce his resignation soon. i'll get more now on that story . correspondent barbara. barbara there have been more protests there tonight i mean what have people been telling you. the people here are really palpably angry and this anger has been growing over the last week because 1st the investigations into the murder off duff nicholas's seem to be breaking open they seem to be an idea that now one was getting closer to the truth and then all these things we just saw happen that he's scam bre the cabinet chief sort of was released without charge just by the police that he is now sort of gone under that he has disappeared from the scene nobody knows where he is people fear
1:17 am
he might flee that the island he might never be brought to justice so there is a lot of anger and people want more there one more even than a resignation from joseph muskat the prime minister we've been talking to them before the demonstration let's listen to what they had to say but there's a core of rotten. of rotten people. in politics and in business and they're in bed together and that is what is rotten underneath to be cleaned out the old politicians the new blood needs to come up and needs to clean out the house they have to pay for that drives they can't just walk away free there's some corruption there's much does everything not only have not opening a definitely they've also bad there's also being made as for people who spoke up you know this is enough who's in prison who they are just. because he's just as
1:18 am
guilty i feel you. know he's complicit at least by hiding covering up. and the latest voice the last voice we heard there was the one of the mother. ronna. so we really hear that people want change they want a fundamental change on the silent yeah absolutely i mean here and people are saying even the cold war is rotten and of course you know if the prime minister does step down that is the the political side of this but what would that mean for the investigation into the murder of daphne carr want to leave the. i mean in the end it seems that this is going to be blown wide open we saw your going fenech the main suspect of to have ordered the hit on definitely say walk out of the courthouse today astonishingly he walked out free i mean it was in check out that
1:19 am
was just a policeman company and him and he said to reporters the truth will come to light and he feared for his life but he will tell all so he will point to his finger at the people in government who are sort of implicated and instead of being really behind this murder and so would this seems to be the point in time where people in government and this is a businessman here they are sort of trying to tear each other and pull each other down to say there's no it was them but no it was the other one and so it seems that in the end yes it will come out because people did the criminals involved in this and the people who have been connected to have ordered the hit they have started talking and then in the end they will really try to sort of really get all the details we have to sort of you know that for instance you are going to the senate that businessman he was wiretapped for over
1:20 am
a year by. the prime minister and he listened into those tapes so he's known all along what was going on there is so many details that show the deep implication of the government into this murder that in the end it really will have to be blown blown open i mean if and when those details come out is that going to so to speak drain the swamp in malta and barbara i mean how deep does that swamp go we're hearing so many people in the government allegedly tied up in this. that would just be a mere beginning i mean of course people here want justice that's what they always screaming at those demonstrations now just says justice they want people to go to jail for the murder bought everybody here knows that. the disease kills so much deeper there is this mafia like concrete action of people being sort of doing business together and doing favors for each other and doing criminal favors for
1:21 am
each other and covering up money laundering is rampant on the island there is a whole cozy no economy that has developed that is so laundering illegal money from russia from the near is from from everywhere really and is streaming through the island passports are being sold to russians to chinese to all the guards from wherever who wanted a european passport for a big sums that there are no controls in place this goes on and on and the whole economy and the political elite here are sort of totally in connected and there is this network really that is just an crusted in society and all this will really have to be torn and people the normal citizens here in malta really want that and they say we have lost our dignity we need to regain it and we want to be a democracy i mean barbara what you're describing there is basically a complete breakdown of the rule of law in malta is of course a member of the european union do we know how will these accusations play out in
1:22 am
the e.u. institutions i mean for one thing it's not a great look to have members of governments participating in upcoming e.u. summit i mean what's the e.u. fallout here. i mean next monday there is going to be enough that you delegation arriving on the island and to sort of really reinforce the message that things must be done that this cannot go on there is in fact like you say a complete breakdown of the rule of law and that is systematic on malta because the prime minister is the one who can appoint to the head of police the head of the security services the head of the judiciary it's all in one hand now there is no separation of powers that is absolutely undue credit and this will have to be changed and will have to be changed quickly so it really goes to the very core here at the e.u. now is adamant that these changes need to be made and that if they are not made in
