pre-industrial temperatures the united states one of the world's biggest company mrs is also representing a president trump pulled his country out of the pars accord but that doesn't take full effect until late next year we are indeed still in. unfortunately we are having to fight our way through a bit of a blockade by the fossil fuel industry but that will not prevail and the america that you know the america of leadership the america of progress the america of confidence the america of clean and green energy. people like secretary kerry and president obama's work at the original paris capa something we should all reflect on while we're here today that america will be back and as she said yes we are still in joined now by dr to panelists she's a researcher at the think tank climate analytics here in berlin i welcome to d.w.

let's start with the most optimistic scenario and let's say that every country that has signed up to the power supply was agreement meets its obligations if that happens do we save the planet. well the paris agreement is quite quite an achievement in terms of its architecture and in itself there's quite a few quite a few elements obviously to that agreement and there's no obligations as such under the paris agreement at the heart of this agreement they're they're obligated or that pledges that countries actually put forward so the nationally determine contributions and the contributions that we see them at this point that country countries have actually put forward up to now are definitely not in line with limiting warming to well below 2 degrees set out in the service even if we get what everyone has agreed to it's still not enough well it's very important to see that

part of the pairs agreement is that countries have agreed to regularly update their national determine contributions and 2020 is going to be a decisive year to really ramp up ambitions and countries are asked to put forward new obligations next year previous to the next cup and that is going to be decisive for for the world to really achieve the paris targets why would country has next year ramp up what they have already achieved by now that is that is a very good question is going to be very very important for that momentum to really build up for countries to really renew their policies to renew their pledges and put put forward actually ambitious targets that are then in line with what we're already seen because if i've understood what you've said correctly. best case scenario we hit our targets the earth is still doomed well. the current pledges that have been about put forward and in aggregate probably will lead us towards

a warming of around 3 degrees towards the end of the century and already now we're seeing quite severe impacts across the globe we're currently at about one degree of warming so if we continue the way that we're doing and we continue to work with the pledges that we currently have on the table we're certainly going to see more severe climate impacts. all over the world so let's look at one of those climates or impacts stay with us would you please dr understood as we take a look now at walnut region not only fitting the direct effects of climate change but also doing something about it the seychelles is an island chain off the coast of africa threatened by rising sea levels and the destruction of local marine life but the low lying nation just north of madagascar is now an acting policy as it hopes will serve as an example to others. over 300000 people a year head to the seychelles to enjoy a holiday in paradise the vast array of coral sea fish and other marine life in the

surrounding ocean is breathtaking. but this entire ecosystem is under threat from climate change. the president of the seychelles called for urgent action when he took in the ocean floor earlier this year in a submersible vehicle. scientists have spoken. and politicians around the world. for us to act now will be a strong and that's been a strong advocate for marine protection. around the world. the most alarming problem for the seychelles waters is rising temperatures warmer cities have bleached many of the coral reefs damaging areas of natural beauty for a country that relies on its fishing and tourism industries the impending disaster could cost many people their jobs. and in this response above the problems of climate change yet we are vulnerable. in fact if you were different

the fight would have been different the seychelles is working on a solution a government led initiative is turning one 3rd of the country's territorial waters an area the size of germany into protected zones the zones stretching out from the countries in iraq looms and darker group islands aim to limit human activity and thus make marine life more resilient. marine scientists from the university of oxford and the nekton institute have been examining the seychelles waters. there was a incredible diversity an abundance of fish especially in protected areas like a dobra which shows a marine protected areas do work when they are put in place. the seychelles is aiming to become a model for marine protection around the world in an effort to slow the effects of climate change its president is hoping other countries will take notice we all know

that we have a problem what is needed is a responsible global action. and there is no there is no time for blame game. the so shells on its president are already seeing the effects of climate change they don't want discussion they want action now. well the madrid climate conference known as the cop 24 it's also known as the blue cup because of its emphasis on the oceans so dr listening how urgent is the action needed to present them well certainly the oceans are huge ecosystem and many many people across the world living on coasts and in coastal areas depend on the ocean so it's actually absolutely essential and they are being threatened by various pressures from climate change to pollution so it's certainly a very urgent. another do you do you some of your work specializes in measures to

reduce the risks posed by climate change could you give us some examples. well part of dealing with climate change obviously we want to reduce climate change happening as much as we can but we're already facing impacts so adaptation to the impacts that we see in climate change is going to be essential regardless of how strong and climate actually we actually managed to have and for coastal areas for example a lot of measures that we look at a really ecosystem based adaptation re re re inhabits in kind of the coast with their with their natural natural vegetation like mangroves for example is a very important about helps us. well that helps dealing with increased rates of erosion for example due to sea level rise. that helps in gating to some extent storm surges that might happen due to increased storm activities but obviously these adaptation measures have their limits one sea level rises to

a certain extent and storms come at a at an increased intensity where with these certainly have limitations we will we wish you well with you have with your work thanks so much for joining us dr to be a listener thank you. now for some of the other stories making news around the world more than 200000 people have flat the homes in the philippines ahead of a powerful typhoon due to make landfall in the coming hours i winds are already battered east of the country officials have urged residents to evacuate vulnerable coastal areas on millers international airport is due to suspend operations. a new wave of flooding in southern france has killed at least 5 people 3 of the victims were rescuers who died when their helicopter crashed near moss a country's mediterranean coast has faced heavy rains over the last week which has led to serious floods and transport disruption. in iraq hundreds of women have taken to the streets of bashers to show solidarity with anti government protests

difficult to pay for a cat if you pay using cash basically so pretty much everyone does want to fund now the countries also setting up a social credit system now that keep score of the conduct of people basically in a big database and that too is linked to facial recognition this technology has been used extensively in chins and province where to a to crackdown on a largely muslim population there now this technology is being rolled out across the country. at the same time has also been aggressively rolling out c.c.t.v. cameras across the country as well nixed by next year they aim to have 626000000 c.c.t.v. cameras as well as one camera for every 2 people that can then be linked up to the database of people who've been voluntarily giving up their id and people worried about this well there's obviously been lots of foreign criticism of course human rights watch is calling this latest step in china's transformation as into a dystopian surveillance state a pretty harsh criticism from them that's to be expected within china itself the

criticisms being soft lousy minimal and lousy about issues of doctoring commercial selling out of the commercial interests not so much the human rights aspect of the there are sort of twofold reasons for that firstly obviously this is an avenue for people to openly criticize and debate such topics but also it's being sold in china as a really positive thing china saying hey we're the world leaders in this technology and we fantastic and in a country like china where technology is seen as even a positive thing it is you know people are really buying that so if the chinese are worried why should everyone else be. well i mean. from the human rights issues within china itself the technology is being used elsewhere now so it is a good example closer to europe hundreds of huawei made now while i know how the giant check for tech firms chinese tech firms have c.c.t.v. cameras have been installed up throughout belgrade to surveil their now nobody

really knows what's happening with the disaster that's being stored the us has been very critical saying that while ways they used as a back door for the chinese government to surveil further afield here in germany there is a heated debate about whether or not to let huawei roll out 5 g. technology and that's going across europe so you know there's concerns about this technology creeping outside the chinese borders to resist thank you. football adverse emerging blood back continues to be the surprise leaders of the bundesliga after beating freiburg 42 on match day 13 strike a real embargo us scored twice 1st coming after well worked just after half time the switzerland international then tackled a defender to get back the ball and coolly slotted home for the hosts befalls leap table by point and becoming serious title contenders. veta brevan
