russia has a trash problem the country produces an estimated $70000000.00 tons of household waste every year and only 5 percent of that is recycled now moscow is taking action starting january it plans to put sorting bins in every building as part of a citywide recycling program the move comes amid growing protests in the towns and cities where moscow dumps its trash. when it comes to recycling the tortilla cell of yoga and mark seems a valid ski are ahead of the curve for around a year now the 2 muscovites have had separate bins for recyclables at home they try to avoid creating unnecessary waste and signed up to an environmental newsletter for advice on recycling. and it's not just muscovites well worried about garbage i see it in my friends and my colleagues to the issues getting traction because it's become impossible not to notice the problem isn't the chat. up until now recycling

bins like the one in the couple's courtyard have been the exception rather than the rule but from january 1st moscow authorities promise that there will be separate containers for plastic glass paper and metal outside of residential buildings the reform will go into effect in 2020 across the country but critics say many garbage dumps aren't properly equipped yet and in moscow not everyone is so sure about the changes. but we don't have separate containers are now building yet so even if you recycle at home it all ends up together with. separate recycling bins and out for a while now we separate plastic and cardboard. and. of course it's difficult at the beginning you need different bins and you need to separate everything. moscow's garbage problem has made waves far beyond the capital the city produces around one 5th of the entire nation's garbage up until now moscow has shipped out its waste to

dumps all over the country sparking protests like this one in the northern city of our time getting trashed has become a political issue in russia one that its leaders can no longer afford to ignore and his recent annual press conference bloody near putin said russia needs to change its approach if you look at putin's sector of household waste processing never existed in the soviet union and it never existed in russia we. aging it from the ground up and now we've taken the fundamental decisions to stop that process. surveys show that most people in russia are ready to recycle more at home but as the garbage continues to pile up critics worry that russia will just keep burying its problem. the australian government has called up the army to help fight wildfires burning out of control near sydney australia's largest city authorities are bracing for an extreme heat wave this week and following

it's much worse in the in the countryside and it's the country people who've really been suffering for the past few weeks in an orderly are all the firefighters putting themselves at risk but of course the people generally are worried about losing their homes and and the threat to their own lives as well so you know the whole communities has become stressed and that was a point made by the mayor of the blue mountains here on today who said look this all the stress is affecting families you know they're living with the daily threat to their homes and also the threat to the to human life and as you rightly mentioned just now 9 people or so if it doesn't so far died in this bushfire crisis and something like 8 or 900 homes have been lost so it's affecting a lot of people and it permeates throughout the country. many are linking the intensity of the bushfires to climate change what's the government's response to that. well this is a this super is debate about what schools the drones and what schools the climate

change which were undoubtedly experiencing undoubtedly. the fuzz this year being much more intense and much more extensive have been in previous years but the prime minister scott morrison refuses to directly blame any particular thing for the bush he says that. he's reluctant to take any firm action against climate change which might affect the economy and remember the australian owns about $60000000000.00 a year from exports of cool and relies very heavily too in coal fired power stations for electricity so he doesn't want to do anything that's going to going to harm the economy or the other and he had to say that if it through the smoke at the front of the past few weeks is certainly changed public opinion and was certainly morrison in its government will come under. increasing pressure to change their
