ah ah ah ah, this is dw news live from berlin, global climate tools are underway in egypt with world leaders gathering in cairo for the un climate meeting, the issue of how to compensate countries already suffering. climate damage is a key. i said on the agenda. also coming up ukrainians,

forced to live by candle light after russian attacks and ukraine's energy networks president the landscape was that's likely more to come. and on the eve of the u. s . midterm election has many young people are gearing up to vote for the 1st time and in record numbers. ah i'm a new group is mecan and welcome to the program. world leaders a gathering for climate talks in egypt at the u. n's cop 27 summit. now they're facing formidable challenges of bessie as conference with countries seeking to limit the rise of global temperatures to $1.00 degrees celsius. leaders must now find common ground to take action amid geopolitical turmoil and spiraling energy crisis. countries already suffering irreversible damage from climate change are

demanding compensation from the world's biggest polluting nation. and that's an issue that will be front and center at this year's summit. a breakthrough in the egyptian resort town of charl shake. never before has the issue of financial compensation made it on to the official negotiating agenda at the u. s. climate talks. the steamer, rid of the topic is on the schedule is over. i think it's a reassuring indicator that we are going to make good progress here in shemelle shade on this important issue for the victims dinner on chrome. although developing nations contribute the least to climate change, they suffer much more from its consequences and often end up stuck paying for them . it's now set to be a central issue at cop $27.00. a recent report by the world media are a logical organization, puts this climate inequality front and center. the fact that was not lost on un chief antonio quoterush as well, methodological organization so. so clearly change is happening with catastrophic

speeds. devastating lives and lively woods on every continent. people and communities everywhere must be protected from the media and ever growing greeks of the klamath emergency. but even the most dire warnings are no guarantee that the conference will deliver results. while war and crisis are driving a push in many places for more renewable energy, fossil fuels, we're still seeing a come back for the next 2 weeks in egypt. it's not just the climate on the agenda, it's our future. the more we can speak to beatrice christopher o from d w environment as it was welcome. now we know the dozens of world leaders are gathering in egypt this week at the top 27 climate summit. can you tell us what is the most immediate problem that they're facing and, and what can they do to fix it? i mean, the most, the main priority of these climate talks is the same priority. the common talks i've had for the past decades, because scientists have been saying for a very long time that we need to de carbonized our economy. stop burning fossil

fuels like haul and gas, but move towards greener energy sources like when and solar. because what happens when we burn fossil fuels that we emit gases into the atmosphere that's create kind of a greenhouse effect. effectively baking our planet and making temperatures rise. and that makes extreme weather events like he waves floods, droughts more common, and also makes them hit harder. and i'm sure many people watching at home have even noticed that in their own lives. in the past few years. earlier today, the french president emanuel nicole urged china the u. s. and other non european countries to pay their fair share to help fight climate change. he said, europeans are paying where the only ones paying is he right? i mean, it's a complicated question because we have to ask ourselves, is any nation right now paying enough, given how urgent this emergency is. i mean, poor nations would probably argue, yeah,

the u. s. needs to pay up and china needs to pay up. but so do the european countries because poor nations, because i mean these wealthy nations made a fortune off of burning fossil fuels. and then the poor nations are really the ones feeling the extreme weather events the most and are expected to pay for adaptation to transitioning to cleaner energy and all the economic and cultural damage that is done when an extreme weather event kind of ravages through your country. the issue of course, is that the wealthy nations don't want to pay up, and that'll be interesting to see what happens in these talks. it's a big topic, isn't it at this conference? i mean, with so many different interests at play and quite frankly, so much happening in the world right now. how realistic is it really that we're going to see any coordinated action going forward? now world leaders have set themselves, you know, this, these climate talks are competing against the war and ukraine, the energy crisis rising cost of living. and they are asking themselves really,

how realistic is it that they're gonna channel all this money towards climate when there are more kind of he mainly more urgent issues of play. so well, traps can't expect a breakthrough pack that will change everything. now what we do see in these types of climate talks is incremental change. and hopefully what we'll see is that world leaders are feeling ever more pressure to the carbonized or economy interest. christopher from the w's environment, as thank you so much. thank you. now one of the effects of climate change is more extreme weather patterns on the african continent. for example, some parts of suffering severe drought while other parts are experiencing heavy and frequent rainfalls, as is currently the case in nigeria. a small town in the democratic republic of congo is also dealing with overflows from lake 10 janitta, one of the world's largest lakes, the fishing communities, they're suffering from warmer water temperatures, which are killing the fish. and now the rising water levels and mudslides

a further devastating the community the lake is eating away at homes, bit by bit and meter by meter. the water is or isn't so high. the thousands of people in the town of columbia have been displaced. awkward, non assad would have one yorba linda. i'm here was a very nice house, adequate, fuzzy and i live on the other side. all the people have fled when we don't know where to get help so that we can rebuild what it was like a thief. well, what the, what, what am i look at all this closely? but i live with us heavily back in busy. i've been living to one nightmare. tanganyika has destroyed us a little. what did i'm now young lady, that i needed to find out and had funnier. i tanganyika is the world's 2nd deepest, fresh water lake. local residence depend on its fish to make a living. but rising water temperatures have killed mass amounts of fish. on top of that, the lake has become

a danger to the people. it once fed floods and storms are common in tropical countries, like the democratic republic of congo. but climate change is now making them more frequent and more severe. now, when it rains, the earth slides that's washed, huge chunks of silt into the lake and cause water levels to search. the rise, according to this official, has been very rapid. well, you'll receive moms of the marquee of lake tongue jenica has risen to a level of more or less 5 to 6 meters in height, and advanced to 100, the 250 meters in land, towards the continent, all in 3 years. or this something can't met or feel really plausible for calamity residents each day has become unpredictable. the hope is that the global community will take note of it to ukraine. now our president led him is zalinski,

is wanting of more attacks by russia on energy infrastructure caves. mass as residents may want to consider, temporarily relocating if the city is power and water, the supply becomes stretched any further. around 4 and a half 1000000 people are currently without electricity in ukraine. a city plunged into darkness only a few lights on and cave after missiles took out much of the electric grid, the mer urging residents who can leave to do so. and warning a total blackout may be on the way we're. we're doing everything so that this doesn't happen, but let's be honest. our enemies are doing everything to keep the city without heat, electricity and water. and in general, they want us all to die coupla. whereas electric you. while the capital struggles to keep the lights on fighting rages in multiple regions, this house in a town inside part of the russian controlled done, yeske region was destroyed and shelling. luckily no one was killed. i'm wishing oh,

the man was over there. he was lucky, he wasn't in the out building, mecca for he, for the beautiful dog got killed. meanwhile, russia claims that ukraine bombed a dam in russian controlled territory in the south, near the city of his son. if the dam fails, catastrophic flooding would result something. russia claims ukraine is planning to do as part of its counter offensive to reclaim the area. one rare bright spot, a prisoner exchanged, that saw more than $100.00 men from both sides come home. these men and the don bass were fighting for the russian side. they'll now go to russia for rehabilitation, while those stuck in ukraine brace for a cold, hard winter. in him, we can trust not in need of any correspondent nick connelly who is in cave. nick, the situation is still calm this monday morning. is there any suggestion asshole

that russian attacks may be slowing down? i think people here are not rushing to come to that conclusion. they're still too fearful that more is to come. it is true that over the last month has been this pattern of it should irregularity with russia checking ukraine's energy system or during the night from sunday to monday is if people make the joke here is if they are trying to please their boss is coming in to work on a monday morning as kind of dark humor that prevails here. that hasn't happened this week, but it still seems like russia is deafening out to basically compensate for it's like success on the battlefield by attacking the infrastructure that keeps people's lives going far away from the front lines. and there are reports that are more iranian weapons are heading towards russia that russia is trying to build up, become stuck, or weapons of missiles to then potentially attack ukraine on a much bigger scale than has been the case in recent weeks. so real sense that this is still very acute, even if you cranes now having a bit of a breather and has managed to kind of compensate some the worse damage. and now

we're just dealing with kind of plan blackouts rather than emergency blackouts. that was the case of loss you days. as a result of these attacks kids, mary's telling residents to be prepared to leave what a people in keep doing with this advice. i think those people was struck by that because for all the damage, all the kind of difficulty of going about de la people are keeping extraordinarily positive and kind of optimistic. you hear people making jokes, talking about how to get their generator working, where to find the diesel about neighbors complaining about noise, those kind of things. and so people i think weren't really ready for such a stark message. and for now it's not on the card, but definitely the mare that same people should be ready and should have contingency plans. if things do get worse, it is important say that winters and he just really starting the temperatures only started dropping in recent days to things are going to get a lot tougher before they get better. and ukraine has run out of spare parts. if there's more damage, ukraine will be fully dependent on foreign help to repair those networks as so definitely we are a bit of

a kind of turning point. now you said people are generally sort of positive and upbeat, and yet as you say, ukrainians are co thanks for having to cope with power and water shortages. is there a sense that the ongoing russian attacks could grind them down to the extent that ukraine is forced back to the negotiating table or to the negotiating table? i should say why i think that was definitely the calculation in moscow that this would achieve a kind of a willingness to accept moscow's terms. you know, at a time where russia is having a remarkably little success on the battlefield and that kind of civilians would prove a more kind of wonderful target. they would put pressure on their leaders to go to talk to vladimir putin that isn't happening. i think it's kind of bloody mindedness among lots of ukrainians account determination to keep on going. i think we've also seen a lot of kind of counterproductive effects. european countries who are maybe bit wobbly, about supplying ukraine with weapons now under pressure from their own public seeing these images from ukraine, sending more in the way of anti missile anti aircraft systems ukraine. we've just

heard in recent minutes that ukraine has received. nas sam systems from the u. s. and also more missiles from spain to potentially is going to be increasingly in a better space in terms of shooting down missiles, shooting and plains that might be trying to bomb ukraine. so sense here that ukraine is for now holding up, but yes, this is a very difficult situation. and economically, people just need to be able to go about their work and earn a living. after almost a year of, of, of war people savings are near really at an end. if they can't rely on the power to work, they can't work from home. and it's gonna be very difficult. next, thank you. that's d w, isn't it commonly in keith take a quick look now. some of the other stories making headlines, at least 19 people have been killed in tanza near after a passenger plane plunged into the waters of late victoria. bad weather struck shortly before the plane was due to land in the lakeside town of ba cobar. rescue as have saved another 24 passengers from the wreckage. facebook's parent company mehta is planning to lay off thousands of employees. now that according to

u. s. media sources, the plans follow recent job cuts by other major tech firms in the face of rising inflation and lower advertising revenue matter currently employs more than 80000 people worldwide building the fundamental technology. and with one day left before the u. s. net terms, a final campaign push is underway, seats and both chambers of congress are up for grabs, as well as governorships and city may oral officers. president joe biden has been campaigning, a new york, where the states democratic governor, cathy hope all is facing a tight race against her republican rival. former president donald trump was calling on crowds in florida to support republican candidates in tuesday's vote. and more than 8000000 young americans are getting ready to vote in the elections for the 1st time. many will be looking to elect lawmakers to bring about change and experts. the saying the less motivated by parssi and more by policy

jamie is a dedicated climate activist. she was sending campaign post cards to people around the country before she was old enough to vote. now in the mid term elections, she finally has a voice. she's one of 8000000 kinsey 1st time voters. and she's clear about what's at the top of her agenda. they say we have, i think, 8 years lock now and to reduce our common missions by 1.5 degrees. in order for this planet to be livable. um, so the policies that are inactive now will determine the fate of this planet. for centuries. she's not a dedicated democrat, but she like many other young people, feels that when it comes to climate change, she has no other choice. at the end of the day, if it's down for democrat or republican democrats are far more likely to either be persuaded or actually may, could for a decision for the climate. aiden is also

a student in a 1st time voter. he has 2 major issues in mind. this election cycle which makes choosing between parties difficult. i think democrats kind of have more of a initiative and drive to um, you know, that tackle the, the climate change issues than conservatives. but i think economics wise, i think conservatives have a better a better mindset going into that side of the climate change issue. it's susie, i'm one of a by part of he's involved with left middle home with bright touches. so the 1st question is, how important do you think your vote is in elections and that the student found it? news outlet, showcasing diverse political perspectives from jesse. i'm from his work there means he talks with many people, his age was painful. a lot of people like me who kind of don't see a fit in either party, so they're kind of just stuck in the middle kind of, you know, going back and forth between left views and right. these sandra ochoa knows just

how much young voters can be more focused on policy than party. she spent several months talking with 1st time voters for the non partisan youth organizing group 18 by boat. young people aren't too tied down to party themselves, so i think of other parties were able to rise up to power and represented us better . i think young people would be very willing to vote for them because i don't think they're tied down to a party named their tied on to, to be issues. first time voters in the u. s. have seen the 2 party system produce chaos and a stalemate. while real life issues they care about become increasingly urgent. so young people will have to make frustrating compromises with their boots in the selection. until the system or the parties adapt to how these new voters think about politics. it's to rush an hour. hundreds of thousands of citizens have left the country to flee putins mobilization, but some a leaving for other reasons. in conjunction with the german show composter from the

abi b network, d w spoke to a doctor, maria demet treva. she was loyal to the russian regime, having spent years working for the russian defense and interior ministries and for the secret service. but 2 weeks ago, she decided to flee and apply for asylum and france. we mean, maria, on the coat de door in the south of france just a few years ago. this region was among the favorite places for rich russians to go on holiday and buy houses, but the war changed everything. maria dmitri eva is a doctor. she travel to paris, fire algeria with only one goal in mind to apply for asylum. she spent years working in clinics of russian ministries. most recently the f. s. b, the domestic secret service. there was for sure. so yours is also good. the years you spent your life little beast years on your education, on your profession,

but your government does not even think about the people, but they are thinking about is themselves. you, you know, with the suit and when and his entourage adjust criminals band of who when with all the a years and power, how did nothing good with the people that shem on was the rubles not reason? did they need to annex territories of other states by the means of illegal referendums and tierra 3 girls? daughter, maria says there's a growing sense of bewilderment and unhappiness among her friends and the russian secret services about the so called special military operation in ukraine. they're wondering about the numbers of deaths among civilians on harbor fears about the rising influence of some figures from putins in her circle. she says that even before the war, her patience in the clinic of the ministry of defense were complaining of bern eyes . but nobody dared speak out against the commanders. not anyway too. but you know,

everyone is scared because every street protest and moscow is being stopped very quick and very brutal. d, w, and cooperation with or b. b, cantata has been researching refugees from russia. we visited the founder of the human rights network, gallagher dot ness flooded marrow sash kid in the north of france. his mission is to collect eye witness reports on violence, torture, and corruption and russian prisons. he's been protected by the french police, but we're not alive to film him with the body guards. he says in recent weeks, he has been overwhelmed with messages from russia. no cousin, every single day we are receiving 23 letters from the army, from the police, from prison, gods from private military companies. the amount is huge. in previous times,

it was a message once in 6 months. and our sources were very cautious about their anonymity or they didn't use their names. they registered email addresses on proton mail. now they're just playing got a says cane is helping maria to she didn't want to support the war. my girl, i was able to get out to turkey. it's a visa, free country for russia. i was able to leave quietly. no one would know where i was . i would get lost and live my life. but with my escape, i wanted to tell the world things a really bad. maria says her entire family has left russia in france. she has been giving interviews to the big tv stations. she says she wants the world to know that not everyone in russia supports putins politics and his bloody war on ukraine. now we're going to go back to our coverage of the u. s. midterm elections and to take a little deeper into use voting trends in the us. we can now speak to john hillsman, who's a global riff consultant and

a member of the council on foreign relations. welcome to the w, john. an 8000000 members of gen the are eligible to vote in the us am and they could be a deciding factor. if they turn out to vote. can you tell us? will they turn out? no. is the short answer, but g right? to go back a step 8 in the last election and 2020 youth voters traditionally never show up. this is always these sacred cow of american kind of thinking that if we could only the democrats can get the you thought out the when. but last time they showed up fully 50 percent of those $18.00 to $29.00. and it a voting in 2020. and that was the margin of jo biden's victory. because traditionally the youth vote is about 2 to one in favor of the democrats biden is given them a lot on his plate this time. certainly the end of roe v wade and that returning to the states is an issue that motivates a lot of younger voters. and frankly,

the bribe that was getting rid of their student debt. whereas i had to pad and on it and, and people not in college after pad. this was an enticement to put it mildly to get them out to vote. but so far in the mail balloting that's been looked at, which is very minor thereabout. it's only about a 3rd, the total of mail valid and what it was last time. so that's back to its normal, really pathetic numbers, and that means the democrats are likely to have a very, very long night to morrow. now the political divide in the us has a rarely been deeper, and i young voters as polarized as that older counterparts. and most of the know in the sense that the overwhelming majority our, our democrats. i mean, the way this works is that various groups are overwhelmingly one thing or the other, and it isn't that you try to get them to change in aggregate. you try to knock down those numbers. so for instance, african americans voted $95.00 to $5.00 for obama. republicans don't need to win

african americans think it and knock that number down to about 7525, and that's a huge wind for them. likewise, hispanics had voted 2 to one for democrats. the new number is about 5050, which is a huge win for the republicans. so the key is to knock down these overwhelming numbers. so younger voters still tend of a democratically. it's about 60 percent as opposed to $67.00. that means an awful lot of young voters do vote republican, but the majority vote democratic republicans either want them not to turn out or to vote republican and knocked down that advantage because they're going to win strongly on older white college educated men. he's talked a little bit about what you know, people are motivated by. i was in the us last week i speaking to a 25 year old who has those had democrat in the past. but he said, you know, anything about these elections doesn't really affect my paycheck. so i, i'm just not going to those. and is that something that's a lot of young people would be able to relate to?

absolutely, and i think that's a shrewd comment and you were right to listen to it because the reality is, the democrats bet that abortion would be. the overwhelming issue that somehow donald trump, who hasn't been in power for 2 years, would be the overwhelming issue. the issue is what it always is, is james carville, said bill clinton's famously shrewd campaign manager. it's almost always the economy, stupid, and right now with cost of living at 40 year highs with inflation utterly out of control with bite and having thrown gasoline onto the fire by trillion dollars spending plan. after trillion dollar spending plan, there's really nobody to blame but him for inflation and critically independent voters. many youth. by the way, our independent voters overwhelmingly blamed the president for inflation for cost of living and for the recession to come. because the only way to get inflation down is going to be to, as we've seen with the fed, to ratchet interest rates up very quickly. almost always that's as larry summers pointed out, that leads to recession and young voters are of course,

the most vulnerable segment of society. they're the ones actually doing the jobs out there. so this affects them to pretend that pocket book issues don't motivate them, is not to understand young voters tongue holes, then thank you so much for your analysis. really interesting. and my pleasure. thank you for having me. i'm with that you are up to date coming up. next level 3000 has or a report about a used a clothing graveyard in chile, massive heaps of 2nd time, textiles in the attic, kama deserts the stick around for that. if you can like to watch with with
