a warmer plant. also coming up on the eve of us mid term elections, many young people are gearing up to vote for the 1st time and they're doing it in record numbers. ah. hello m terry martin. good to have you with us. world leaders are gathering for climate talks in egypt at the u. n's cop 27 summit are facing formidable challenges at this year's conference with country seeking to limit the rise of global temperatures to just 1.5 degrees celsius. leaders must now find common ground to take action amid geopolitical turmoil and the spiraling energy crisis. in is welcoming remarks. the un secretary general struck a somber tone. these un klamath conference is the reminder that the answer is in

our ends. and the clock is ticking. we are in the fight of our lives and we are losing greenhouse gas emissions. keep growing global temperatures . keep rising and our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate scales. you reversible. we are on a highway to climb hotel without foot still on the accelerators. our correspondent nina houses in sharma shake and joins us now from the climate conference. neither tell us why transpose schoultz is there at this summit. is it just a matter of pro, to call for germany or is shoulds pursuing a particular policy goal? well, we hear from the german government that it would be completely wrong, not to be here, but it is vital to show your face here and to make use of this opportunity to talk to leaders of the international community and to get other people to understand the

as the syria is seriousness of this problem and to actually get some more political will to achieve those common goals. and what i've shown it's more concretely is here because he wants to push the idea of the climate club. that is an initiative that he launched in his position as g 7 president back in the summer. and he says the club is open to everybody who wants to take this issue seriously and essentially prepare for a weld where fossil fuels are oil and gas are no longer go to an fuels. but where we are connected by renewable energies and charts. warns that if we don't set common standards now, then they'll be trade barriers, which is also one of the reasons why he says he's quite hopeful that china will also join this initiative because china is not interested in trade barriers. so solids is here to talk about these initiatives that will said, the global sealed,

that will be launched next week. here by the german development minister has been your source, it together with the president of the vulnerable 29. is a group of the most effective regions around the world led by gonna know germany, as you know, is in the midst of a massive energy crisis. it's just scrambling to buy more fossil fuels to make up for the supply, cut off by russia. how committed is germany to tackling? i might say well, that is of course, one of the key messages that shows has in his suitcase here, look, well he says this is a transitional crisis that we are facing at the moment. which is why we have to transition to lee go for more fossil fuels. still we have to invest in ellen g terminals. we don't really want to invest in them, but we have to because of our m, the, the massive dependency on russia in the past. and of course, that is

a tricky no difficult message to convey to the international community where everybody says, okay, you tell us that we need to save and cut emissions, but you don't and you don't invest enough and renewable energy. so that is a very, very tricky, tight rope walk for him to walk here, but he will seize em all the opportunities he has. he says and try and convince people that this is really just a transition phase. talked about how other countries see germany, germany have a credibility issue when it comes to trying to convince other countries of the need to tackle climate change. but all of shows wants to counter this criticism by saying our aim is to invest up to $6000000000.00 euros per year in the german budget for international climate protection efforts by the year 2025. so we are putting money on the table and we are increasing that money to

help those affected regions that are having to deal with losses and damages. this is one very important topic, of course, but m r spoken to colleagues here of course, the international media world is also here. and they say, you know what, we realized that europe is facing a serious crisis. but there's also hope there's the hope that discussion from now on can be lead on the more i to i level and that the west and europe is no longer so advocate in a thank you so much our correspond, nina hosted there in shamile. shake the cop sama now the ukraine, where the military is welcoming the arrival of new western air defense systems. the latest weapons have been supplied by norway, spain, and the united states, ukraine's defense minister. alexei arrested cough announced on monday that the 1st delivery of advanced na psalms and s fide systems would significantly strengthen the ukranian army. he said the weapons would help protect ukrainian energy

infrastructure, which has been repeatedly targeted by russian missiles and drones and reason weeks are correspond it. nick connelly is in kip. earlier he told me more about the western air defense systems that have been arriving in ukraine. and how important they are for the country. this is currently the kind of area of support that ukraine government says is the most crucial is, is about protecting steve's like here where i am now sometimes hundreds of clumps away from the front lines that have been hit time time again over the past month by those russian rocket and drone attacks and lots of the systems been promised months ago and, and our only, you know, as winter draws and finally being delivered in the 1st kind of consignment. so we don't have much information about exactly how many have so far, rich ukraine, the u. s. had promised 8 systems 8 better than us ams, and then spain had promised these italian built espied a system router, a bit older, bit less technologically advanced, but had they wanted it, it's more,

at least it's believed to be that there are more of these around in europe and they could be easily if it proved to be success delivered later is all about preventing this damage to ukraine's infrastructure that really has left hundreds of 1000 millions of people at risk are very, very cold winter with his repeated attacks on the energy system on the heating plants we heard just a few hours ago from the head of the company that deals with caves heating that if russia's, it holds back from further attacks on ukraine's power stations, that within 2 weeks they could kind of restore electricity supply. right now we have 3 for our power cuts every day in care of. so basically the 2 weeks needed. but i think very few people here believe that russia is going to somehow suddenly stop these attacks given how badly they're doing on the battlefield. now russia has been lobbying dozens and dozens of miss howes and drones at ukraine over the past few weeks. will these new deliveries of weapons do much to protect ukraine's vital infrastructure? neck was some of these are, it has be said,

very expensive weapons. so the question is, is it really worth, you know, firing a missile that can cost to attend that hundreds of thousands of dollars or euro's at a target like he would like an iranian drone, that costs 10 to $20000.00. there's that can be economic calculations you made. i think the really important thing to bear and here is the busy. no western country has fought a war on this scale in decades. and you've got to think here the air ukraine's fighting on frontline is more than a 1000 kilometers long cities, far away from the front lines being attacked. so basically a lot of territory needs to be protected covered by the system. so some of them probably will be held back for more serious attacks by ballistic missiles, cruise missiles. and that's why ukraine engineers right now are scrambling to come up with their own solutions to deal with drones. coming up, some new people who have seen pictures, video on social media of ukrainian police, ukrainian military firing drones with machine guns and sometimes using slightly more high tech systems. but broadly, it's about finding

a solution that is adequate, and that costs the same amount of money to what the russians are spending on sending these drones here. we've heard from followed him zalinski the president who said that he thinks that russia is building up a big supply of those iranian drones, just about a 100 kilometers away from here in belarus. ready to kind of send a huge swarm of drones to attack key of an issue there is of see, you can, you know, fairly easily knocked down these drones. but if there are so many, at the same time, it might be impossible to get them all. so sense here that yes, this is very welcome, but it doesn't solve the problem. and ukraine is still very, very vulnerable at a time where temperature dropping and lots of people really asking themselves if it is safe to stay here and give. nick, thank you so much. is always our correspond nikia, an economy there in q saint luke, some other stories making headlines today. a new round of talks has begun between ethiopians, government, and representatives from the countries northern a t cry region. the delegates are meeting in neighboring kenya to discuss plans for

disarming rebel groups after a peace deal was signed last week. authorities in india's capital deli say primary schools will reopen this week after being closed due to severe air pollution. curbs, on certain construction work will also be lifted, but daily's air quality is still rated as very poor with pollution levels many times over. above the world health organizations, acceptable limits and china has lashed out at the u. k. over a british minister's visit to taiwan, beijing denounced the trip by trade policy minister, greg hans and 1st u. k. to stop all official exchanges with taiwan. china claims the island is its own territory and has threatened to take it by force. with one day left before the u. s. midterm elections, a final campaign pushes underway. seats in both chambers of congress are up for grabs, as well as governorships and city may oral officers. president joe biden has been

campaigning in new york. where are the states that were credit governor kathy, how cool is facing a tight race against a republican rival? former president donald trump was calling on crowds in florida to support republican candidates. in tuesday's vote. well, more than 8000000 young americans between the ages of 18 and 19 are getting ready to vote for the 1st time. experts say they're less motivated by party and more i 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 like now had to reduce our comm emissions by 1.5 degrees. and in order for this planet to be livable, um,

so the policies that are enacted 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 make the right 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 sort of a byproduct. he's involved with left middle home with bright torture. 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 jen z. i'm from l. his work there means he talks with many people, his age tankers, 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 views. 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 vote. young people aren't too tied down to parties 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 name. they're 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. you're watching d. w is just a reminder of our top story this our world leaders are in egypt for the humans called 27 climate summit. secretary general antonio terrace, told delegates, quote, the clock is ticking on climate change of next close up, examines the claim of climate neutrality. and who regulates? i'm terry martin. thank you. i'm skilled that i think that's hard and in the end the some me, you are not a lot of to you anymore. we will send you back. are you familiar with this.
