3:02 pm
a deal might have been reached on loss and damage. what more can you tell us? yes, that appears to be the case multiple countries are signaling their support for this deal. and so far i haven't heard any speaking out against it. so this is a fund that would be established to pay for loss and damage and that is money that will go towards countries that need it after climate disasters. so climate vulnerable, poor countries that need that money and many of them are singling their support, saying this fund offers hope, but the details will need to be worked out for next year. and the most important one will be where the money's going to come from. so the, the sources of money for that fund from the outside looking in it seemed that delegates were at an impasse. so this is a major development. what remains to be agreed on. the main thing that still needs to be agreed on is mitigation. so that's one of those.
3:03 pm
buzzwords here at cop 27, but basically what it means is reducing emissions. so. so the language in the draft text right now is almost identical to what we had last year in glasgow. and that doesn't reduce emissions to keep warming at to $1.00 degrees or less than that. and you know, the warming of 2 degrees would be quite different than 1.5 degrees. we would lose coral reefs. 60000000 more people would have to deal with the droughts that would lead to hunger and searching for water. 12000000 more people would deal with coastal flooding. so as it stands right now, they're just holding those emissions reductions to work towards 2 degrees. that was agreed and the paris agreement. so, big picture perspective you're, what's essentially at stake. big picture is,
3:04 pm
is, you know, how much warmer it's going to be at the end of the century. so we're looking at a half degrees difference. and, and like i said, that's going to affect people on coastline dealing with drought, dealing with worse heat wave. so this, this is the element that still has to be decided on that. so the w sam, big, big many things other stories. now making news at this hour, authorities in china's capital bay jang have urged residents to stay home. as new cases of grown of virus rise. many restaurants and shops have been shut. the government is trying to is trying a more targeted approach to restrictions amid public anger over it. 0 coverage strategy of city wide lock downs and daily mass testing. north korean leader, king john own,

b i rate on trump's florida home. the news comes just 3 days after trump declared he plans to run for president again in 2024. speaking to a crowd of supporters at a black tie event at his marla go state, donald trump was quick to condemn the announcement. the surrenders abused the powers, the latest of a long series of which us started a long time ago. they have found nothing which means i've proven to be one of the most honest and innocent people ever in our country. the white house says president joe biden had no advanced notice of the attorney general's plans. twitter owner eli mosque has launched a referendum on former us president donald trump. he's asking platform users to vote on reinstating trump, who was banned from twitter after his supporters storm the u. s. capital last year with more than 7000000 votes cast. so far,
3:08 pm
trump is winning. musk is also looking to cut about half the companies workforce. the press on friday, twitter temporarily closed its offices and cut workers access to internal system to move that comes amid reports that large numbers of staff were quitting. for more on this let's go to gordon kalak, associate professor of strategic management at mcmaster university in canada, goren you on musk has floated the idea of reinstating trump. is this just another distraction from what's going on at twitter? i mean that's one possible interpretation. we could also take moscow's word and really believe that he's trying to crowd sources decision. one thing we know for certain is that he is changing twitter as a product by changing content moderation. what we saw just a couple of days ago or yesterday in fact was that he reinstated some previously bank accounts. so jordan peterson, babylon
3:09 pm
b cathy griffin were reinstated. we also have some accounts remain banned. this is alex jones account for instance. and it could be that donald trump's, a twitter account is on the fence. so he really is trying to crowd sources decision to help him make the choice. it could be a distraction, like you said, it's also possible. this is just one of those musk off the cough, tweets with no real intentionality that there's no really good reason to guess one . this isn't over another. at this moment. there have been layoffs across the tech sector as you well know, what makes this weeks mass exodus of employees at twitter different so we know for a fact that twitter has not had great financial performance. and that on a per employee basis, it has lower revenues and lower profits than its competitors. so the cuts were expected in the short term. it probably was required for short term survival of twitter after the take over certainly. now what we see that's different this week
3:10 pm
is that he's given the employees an ultimatum, either become, quote unquote, hard core twitter employees or leave. so this looks like it's more of a cultural change. so where's initially it's what are layoffs were about cost cutting? it looks like now is engaging in cultural change. he just wants employees to stay that are going on by this new culture of being hardcore. whatever it is, that means it's not unusual for new c, e o is to reorganize. so how's the situation at twitter different yeah. so what makes must be different from a lot of other executives is his management style. and to be frank, i'm not sure he knows of doing differently. so traditionally with business schools is a teaching approach of planning, deliberation. this in the market research being tactful and taking your time to make decisions. eli moss is not like this. so he is much, much more impulsive. he takes
3:11 pm
a trial and error approach. he breaks things and then learns from this, like i said, this and the fact this is open to the public makes it very surprising for us to see, especially in a platform like twitter. so this is very different. we teach this is but it's not surprising from us. so it, he has a different approach and i'm not sure he knows certain things differently if the past weeks or so, or any indication we will be talking to you more about the latest developments that are surely going to arise. that is going kalak, associate professor strategic management at mcmaster university in canada. many, thanks. thank you. the football world comp kicks off tomorrow in catalog. it's the most controversial tournament in competition history. attracting widespread scrutiny due to labor and human rights abuses in the host country. much of this criticism has been leveled at pfeiffer and its president

3:14 pm
for kick off. if these and other vital topics aren't addressed more seriously, it's unlikely infant tino we'll get a break from the criticism. well well, controversy surrounding the turn a man have been grabbing the headlines. it will also mock a historic moment for female referees, for the 1st time ever, women will officiate a men's world cup. 3 assistance in 3 primary rafts will be keeping a close eye on the action. is yes historical, but we feel like we are one team we we are representing on the same level as the men here and we have the same capabilities. now this is another step to show that if we men dick and be given flaw and then participate in top competition to means we mindy can be everly. you're watching d. w news. a quick reminder of our top story negotiators have reached a draft deal on a climate compensation fund at the u. n's comp 27 summit in egypt, after days of gridlock, the new draft proposal. would she countries agree to set up
