7:00 am
[000:00:00;00] ah mm ah, this is the wu sleif from berlin deadlock and the called 27 climate summit in egypt as talk centered a final day agreement on new goals seems a little way off. button unexpected proposal from the you could see
7:01 am
a deal time compensation of climate disasters to top of pollution, cutting measures the island paradise being lost to the sea. a warning of what will happen if climate change continues on change. and russia launches you attacks on cities across your brain with winter closing in russian forces, again, target ukraine's energy grid, knocking out power without ah, i've been fizzle and woke up. it's crunch time at the club. 27 climate summit in egypt, delegates at the conference and chamalle shake as supposed to wrap up their talks today. negotiate is still trying to agree on a final statement, addressing several thorny issues. one of those is compensation for countries hit by climate disasters. but there could be some movement on that after a surprising offer from the
7:02 am
e. u. linking compensation to tougher emissions cuts. vulnerable nations have already made it clear time to act is running out. when it comes to the effects of climate change that cop $27.00 delegates are battling against few things stand out for the public, like polar bears losing the arctic ice. they depend on or the pacific island nation of 2 volumes, seeing its islands potentially overcome by rising seas. follow fun, won't pacific greetings from w 2 values. foreign minister spoke from a digitized version of what could be 2 values, 1st, landmass to go under the on line. we have not stepped up to the challenge. we must start doing so today. otherwise, within a lifetime, to well will only exist to you. to follow officials at the global summit point to the long held goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius above pre industrial age levels. scientists and activists say catastrophe looms of
7:03 am
temperatures rise more than that, the planet has already warmed by 1 point one degrees. why? the u. s. behind president joe biden, and the european union insist there holding firm to the 1.5 and are pushing china and other resistant nations to include the 1.5 degree figure in the climate summits, final agreement not back pedaling to 2 or even 2.5. degrees experts say that what's required is a phase out of the use of fossil fuels, the types that release carbon dioxide into the air that then traps heat in the atmosphere causing global warming. but a late draft of the declaration now calls for efforts to phase down as opposed to phase out fossil fuels. i think when we meet at this crucial time in infancy, we need solidarity. we need to think about our wills and a sense of taking care of um,
7:04 am
a well another sticking point to the concluding statement. delegates from developing countries like nigeria and pakistan, which endured extraordinary flooding this year, or somalia and madagascar suffering from major drought. the poor countries are calling for richer, more polluted countries to pay financial relief to nations that field a pain climate change, but are responsible for comparatively little of what causes it. it's a massive and controversial matter that rich countries, like the us are concerned, will set too much precedent even this climate. meanwhile, 2 valuable officials say that without massive efforts to tackle the causes of climate change, setting a precedent of any kind will no longer matter. the w climate report as it originates, following the summit for us facing down instead of phasing out fossil fuels. that
7:05 am
doesn't sound like progress low. and it's not even where the latest draft of even app for the most recent thing for hearing out. and i'm in the drop decision that should in theory be finalized and like a couple of days that, that talks about phasing out on a bait. coal power doesn't really mentioned oil and gas, which a 2 of the big healed kind of heating the planet to make all these extra mother of, of was. and so one suggestion has been to say to face down all of the things, and i mean the some back in india pushing for that you and us of indicated there was such a such a wording. but the scale of what that actually means isn't really captured in that right. so. so actually stop the plan from eating stop, leave extreme weather events getting was to stop to bother with. we've just seen being kind of flooded by the rising sea levels. essentially, all fossil fuels need to be phased out with a very few exceptions where technologies kind of capture the carbon coming out of
7:06 am
them could still be used for making things like cement and steel that's seen of quite central the power plants. it's really not. and so in times of can just to give us some scale of this, according to the international, the international energy agency by 2035. if we do follow a kind of pathway, that means that while the does meet that climate targets on that promise of then just 5 percent of electricity will be made by biting fossil gas batson little over a decade. ok, well let's listen into what. so the delegates have been saying, because this is very urgent for many countries involved in these negotiations, it is evidently clear that at this late stage of a car 27 process, there are still a number of issues where progress remains lacking. i am frustrated that political commitment has not yet been translated into political action. we are out of time
7:07 am
and we're out of money. we have patience. at some point we will have to leave the all the technical discussions behind us and start start looking for political common ground. and i hope this the situation will occur very quickly because we have so little time left. and how do you reach political common ground when there are so many interests involved? so many different interests and then something like 600 fossil fuel lobbyists registered for such a summit. it's tricky. and so, i mean, these lobbyists aren't necessarily the ones actually in the negotiating chambers kind of behind closed doors. but the influences reaches was much more widely than that, right? so a lot of the governments are heavily influenced and that ranges from countries that kind of describing their economies to the biggest historical pollutants. and that's something that's very well documented. so the latest big review of all the climate science literature from the intergovernmental panel on climate change. and it's not
7:08 am
just enough to kind of create, you know, tentative to the carbon, i think, the economy and it energy and everything. it also requires overcoming, these vested interest groups. and so at a summit like this, there is huge pressure for particular from oil producing countries to not mention oil. that's huge pressure when it comes to things like meat not be talking about kind of skating down the amount of beef we eat. so all of these kind of different policy that national governments don't want to kind of endanger the domestic industry, where i think the heavily for over and finding common ground within that is difficult and people just don't want to change it. i mean, shaking up the system could actually save us so much money besides saving the planet and our health and our teachers. exactly. i mean, it's something that just doesn't really line up between what you're hearing from the scientists and the experts and was actually playing out on the ground
7:09 am
a huge and big fan to school. these benefits and kind of a very kind of a job in the time to basically mean the things we do to stop biting fossil fuels help and 1000000000 all the way. so you have cleaner s, you're not dying from lung cancer on the like. you have stronger economies because the less relying on importing energy from different countries of the thing with the energy crisis in europe right now for a whole host of other things that would happen if we did what we needed to do for well lead us to be well, let's hope they're listening into this talk. i did miranda, thank you very much. really interesting stuff. russia has launched another wave of missile attacks across ukraine, killing at least 4 people and entering many more. keep says the strikes were mainly directed at power and heating facilities and come as much of the nation sees its 1st significant snowfall. has been a lot of his zaleski says more than 10000000 ukrainians are currently without power
