for lot of me put in that was it is a short support from his most powerful allies. ah, no massage as wild. welcome to the program you and find just the calling for urgent action on climate change. seeing it's devastating effect for hitting the planet faster than expected. the intergovernmental panel on climate change issued a key report on monday, ordering the was to take drastic measures to limit global warming. the window they said was narrowing, but with the global effort, there may still be time. extreme weather has been heating as hard for decades now with catastrophic consequences. heat waves, droughts, storms, floods melting, arctic ice. all this time, scientists and human experts have been calling to limit the speed of global warming
5:02 am
. today, they are sending a familiar message. time is crucial. humanity is on thin ice and their pisces melting fast. the ssl is report of intergovernmental panel on climate change. i. p. c. c. details. humans are responsible for virtually all global heating over the last 200 years. the rate of temperature rise in the last half century is the highest in 2000 years. concentrations of carbon dioxide are at their highest him at least 2000000 heres. the climate time bomb is sticking. this is why rich countries are being asked to become climate neutral by 2040, which means they need to reach their c o 2 goals even faster than planned. germany was set to become climate neutral by 2045, but the country is lagging behind, especially in the areas of transportation and building renovations. what happens in
5:03 am
the rest of the decade is extremely important. one problem is that a lot of money is still being spent on fossil fuel extraction and not on curbing climate change. the current amount needs to be increased by 3 to 600 percent. yet there is hope the you and experts say we have the necessary scientific knowledge to limit climate change. the financial backing is also there, at least in theory. they just have to be used in the right place. they read vascos, director of the international climate initiative in washington, dc. he told me about his keeping away from the report. well, i think it's a massive wake up call. we've had other wake up cause that but this particular alarm clock is ringing very, very loudly in our ears. and what it is saying is not only on,
5:04 am
are we on the wrong course? ok. and just to give a sense of that, the science that the i p c. c release today says that we could go past the critical goal of keeping temperature rise to 1.5 degrees by the early 2030. so just a decade from now, and it's not only that it is that we have to take urgent action and i would say deep action. this isn't about just skimming our orders over the water. to use a metaphor even faster, we need to do something else which is to have those or is go even deeper in the water than we have been. i think one of the things, one of the takeaways is how many aspects of our society and our economy. we have to change across energy, of course, and renewable energy is key. but also our transport systems have to change the way we build our cities and continue to develop them, have to change our food systems,
5:05 am
have to change. there's virtually no area of our lives that is not implicated by this report. let me ask for your help that painting a picture about how urgent this really is. what happens if nothing is done well, if nothing is done a o e and we continue on our current trajectory. and as i mentioned, we will get past the 1.5 degree threshold. that's the warming since pre industrial times. that's the critical goal that was agreed in the parents' agreement in 2015. that's what we're trying to keep temperature change from exceeding it would, if we keep on our current trajectory, temperature would go over that limit and it would, meaning that we are no longer in a safe zone, we're not as it is actually, but it will mean that we're then looking at $1.00. what we know is that
5:06 am
with 2 degrees of warming, the impacts are much greater than $1.00 degrees. so for example, at $1.00 degrees, we would lose probably about 2 3rd 70 percent of corals, coral reefs around the world. at 2 degrees we would lose all of them, basically 999 percent. so that just gives you, that's just an example that it gives you a sense hopefully of what the consequences are and what's at stake. it definitely does, and let's hope that is urgent action, david roscoe in washington d. c. thank you. thank you. so let's take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world. protest her have taken to the streets again and france off to counter washer pension reforms became low. it comes off of the government not only survived to confidence in parliament over the so open and so valid to keep fighting the deep the unpopular changes that include raising the retirement age. and you led to another conference has
