tv The Day Deutsche Welle August 5, 2023 12:02am-12:30am CEST
12:02 am
so this is dw news from berlin. you can get more news on our website that's dw dot com. when we think of heat waves, we think of water water to cool us down water to extinguish wildfires. but as much of the northern hemisphere who is trying to cope with the consequences of historically high temperatures, the oceans themselves or breaking heat records since the dawn of the industrial age oceans have absorbed about 90 percent of the excess heat produced by humans. rising, see, temperatures will inhibit their ability to regulate the earth's climate and have potentially devastating implications for life underwater. and on land. on the call for lucian, berlin, and this is the day the,
12:03 am
the, the global warming is indeed the heat a global binding as the right. there's a marine heat waves, so the oceans off will save them as well. so there's no cooling effect at the cost . you can see reco breaking the sea surface temperatures, even outside of the tropics for many months. now it is something that is extraordinary on the one hand, but not unexpected because we're seeing unabated time and warning climate change. you see if it is terrifying and it is just the beginning also on the day free speech or hate speech. so he then is on the edge after a series of chronic burnings. one security forces on high alert, stop. com suspect that russia is attempting to hijack the debate and use it to its own advantage. we have seen this for the 1st time uh, rough shot, using the narratives of focusing on the false picture of sweden being hostile
12:04 am
events as long as they repeat things. then there are things that we see in the stomach extreme in some uh, environment to the on the call for at least welcome to the show. our oceans cover. most of the earth surface. they feed us, they regulate our climates and they produce most of the oxygen. we brief but they are in trouble. and so are we because just like much of the plan and the oceans are warmer than ever before, the past month has been the hottest on record with the average temperature reaching 20.96 degrees celsius. that's almost 69.73 degrees fahrenheit, temperature samples taken around the globe, excluding polar regions, showed the new all time high. the previous record was 20.95 degrees celsius or 69.71 fahrenheit, which was set in march of 2016. and the data from research institute in the united
12:05 am
states in europe show record temperatures of 38 degrees off the coast of florida. waters in the north atlantic near the north pole are also much warmer than usual at this time of year. the oceans absorb most of the excess heat from the sun that is trumped by greenhouse gas emissions. let's talk about what this means for us and the planet we live on with not frost. he is with a plymouth marine laboratory. he's also the chair of the world association of marine stations. good to have you on the day and was there for us. so why are the oceans so hot right now? it's all right. yeah, and thank you for watching me to speak. i think there are a number of factors. i mean, we can look at some of the immediate factors such as like switching no, it will impossible rushes, you've mentioned all the boxes about your pool, things like that. well, it'd be towards the medium size, which is a, once again,
12:06 am
it is a natural thing, but it's why the, why would it sort of, uh, be because the most recent one i but i think the main polls and think the size of this is what we would expect to see over the bucket gravy up decade, surprising temperatures. i drew. so you bring the sponsors together. it's not a massive surprised. it was a good sort temperature. suppose they and the rest of paying for disaster of stores . when could the consequences be for marine life? well, i think many brain just, depending on the brain life itself, it's so raised on who's going to be buried very vulnerable. so for example, most proud people. so maybe we take the slide calories bleaching us because call recall things to get to that just stuck on what they call the chart. there isn't even part of the species of the range like video should
12:07 am
a can't do anything and come up new. so big impacts come, potentially be demonstrated. so when you talk about what we would refer to as the bio biles, butterball species here, the while the fish see. but there are other things that are able to move around, but of course body. so we have to talk to the eco system as a whole because of that moving around is altering the whole through the food chain . and the oceans are commercial and regulating temperatures around the globe. so how do rising see temperatures affect the oceans? ability to do that? as well it, it's in the right place. i mean, the main thing is you should, you mentioned this problem 5 years. yeah. yeah. it should take something nice to be that the call the dog side trip to just be producing a lot of the greenhouse gases that we've, we've, we've been sort of pumping out into elements for that. the reason that we haven't seen so much crossteck check is simply has been absorbed into the water. now,
12:08 am
what's, what's up actually you can have sol, last gas. so don't house to consequences, quantities. it holds less oxygen, i'd go. but also, i mean it doesn't take up the call of a dog. so i've, so we're starting to get to the stage. ready a lot of times now, whereas the ocean is big, no sort of, oh oh no, he regulates it almost like also try black conditioning system. like, you know, it's sort of keeping us towards that we should be because of all the gas as well. not is stopping to help advice the so it takes it less gas. that's cool. so now one of the particularly vulnerable spots on the globe are the polar regions of course, and they are so really affected by climate change. what impact are high ocean temperatures? how many here as well as that being said very strongly in the prior to
12:09 am
regents for a number of reasons. one is the title regions, obviously both by definition that, that this sort of range of learning that they were adopted to species that were adopted to very code 5 minutes. so even small one increases in temperature can help them not sitting on the fax and was saying things like, lots of have a top there was sort of like holding images are positive as trying to find see how likely that is melting. but the results of the species, the doctor and i do not see i smells. but i think the other thing with the power to region is not the result of what we call feedback loops. so us the, as the ice melts and then you get less re reflected in since the sun. and this is the only sort of on complex interactions. so you've got a goal. so won't rush the sig is the impacts and the power to reach in the last ball sort of severe review line. hold on for us to another way of putting it in the are in other parts of the world. is there any way you can see the temperatures returning to normal and the oceans?
12:10 am
well the, the issue is, is the sort of it. so like i said, there is a quick fix recall. i mean, even if we stopped everything, why do it now? if we stopped using fossil fuels tomorrow, that would still be a long time block in terms of saying that it saves me a factor about so what most people are hoping. ready looking to happen is that yes, we can start to get reduced also for fuel we use of the all the other things that are causing the problem. but the 2 things we need to do really is we need to adopt . ok. so we need to just accept the amazement, submit decades to come. we're going to be living with these lie temperatures. that means you know, the way we finish the way, we put it brief protected areas and lots of other ways to type. i mean to account, but i think also there's the whole mitigation side of you know, never close world wide enough for people to stop doing and get
12:11 am
a grandfather because we've still gotta trust them. they make the temperature rise to them. so they may be walking in the hall to 2 and a half degrees. every car and is we all we might be looking at a 4 degree realize i'm not what be some crazy catastrophic. so the out to do, but she does not recall, got everything back to normal, straight to why, but we just make sure that the sort of a good fit that the severity of the project for financing. how's that process of the plan with maureen laboratory? thank you so much for all that and for your time. of course. yes, thank you very much. it is a make or break moment for the government of colombia as 1st left us presidents because double pedro ran on a promise to end the civil war that has tormented the country since the 19 sixty's . now a temporary cease fire between the government and the last remaining major gorilla rubia lambs, the national liberation army has just come into effect. similar truth is,
12:12 am
have proven while entitled in the past, but colombians are daring to be cautiously optimistic. was his fire as part of a push for what the president calls total peace, the mobilization of all of columbia's armed actors that includes guerrillas, paramilitary groups, gangs, and drug matthews. the see as far as that's the last 6 months with the possibility of being a permanent, nearly half of 2016 colombia is government signed a piece deal with the left. as far as through, it has only been partially implemented as we want to take a closer look at the situation in columbia. we can do that with elizabeth dickens, m. c. she is a senior analyst for a columbia. the international crisis group. she is normally based in bogota, columbia that joins us tonight from denver, colorado. good to have you on the day. welcome. now this cease fire with the eel and gorilla home forton, is it for columbia as quest for peace? so this is a really significant advance, and i think it's a very good 1st step in trying to de escalate the situation,
12:13 am
particularly with the land, the largest remaining left of the movement in columbia. now in terms of a broader concept, essentially what's happened since 2016 where we did see this piece agreement with the former far the movement is that the conflict has fractured. we have more actors today. they're often smaller and more locally based. but in that context, the lens is very important because it remains the last political insurgency and it has a very significant presence across the territory. so a 180 days of the longest use part of is ever been agreed with organizations which indicate the level of trust between the negotiating teams that we hope will open a face to push negotiations towards a full and in the context. for much further me in the 6 decades of armed conflict, almost every colombian family has been affected by the violence. what about today help present is the war and the lives and the minds of colombians. so there's 2 aspects of it. i think, naturally speaking, we're in
12:14 am
a moment when columbia is still increasing in security. a lot of the indicators of conflict related violence like displacement unforced confinement. these things are starting to go up in recent years, and particularly since dependent may. so there is a sense of urgency the situation to address the daily lives of, of many of them is particularly in rural areas. the other aspect of it is just to understand what daily life is like in areas controlled by the un. in these areas, the organization really is the arbiter of the last, there adjudicating disputes, they're laying down penalties for robbery for um, you know, in fidelity among couple disputes between neighbors. they really are the authority these areas. and that's an authority that comes with often to use the violence. so i think, you know, this aren't take you lading and repeating a part. there's a violence that are cloudy, daily life is what i'm good society is the priority for many of the voters and particularly the voters who supported this government. mm hm. that let's talk about
12:15 am
this government because the man who wants to bring total peace to the country is currently caught up in a huge scandal. his son, who stands accused of money laundering, has testified that car tell him when he actually helped finance his father's presidential campaign. how could this hamper petros peace efforts? i think fundamentally, it's a really unwelcome distraction in order to do something as important and as sort of be scale as the semester is not coming to office. adjusting the idea of total piece, we had at its core really reducing the impact of conflict for civilians through negotiation that required a lot of the political capital. and i think scandal like the one that's in broiling the government know about a legal campaign financing. unfortunately will erode the government's credibility on a number of levels. and one very clear example is in congress where we have a law sitting in congress that would be fundamental to the government's ability to negotiate with criminal organizations. to sit down with them and talk about how you
12:16 am
do you mobilize these forces without that law passing progress, which now is very unlikely given that the current scandal and the way that the political cool mission is collapsing. and so the customer really is how will this government move forward with this and business plan, given that it's space and its capacity to maneuver politically, it's significantly reduced. yeah, that's all a picture and just to give r v are some, some background here ran on a platform of giving a voice to the voice was of empowering that this enfranchised. how are these revelations true or not? because at this point, it's all, it's all, accusation. how is this going down with his supporters? a woman, anything is disappointment. as you had mentioned, gustavo pedro is the 1st selected, left being president, really since the beginning of the worst part of the civil war. and that was a very significant political opening because it was the columbia public finally expecting that the left should have a chance to go through democratic politics to have
12:17 am
a chance to participate. and i think so fundamentally, this is a chance that i'm the one on the left and particularly in rural areas with supported the reform agenda on the increase in, in the rural economy. i think they just feel like this is an opportunity that simply can't be lost. and so i, you know, i, let's see how the government moves forward. but i think concrete when the length of these far are going to be very, very important bringing direct benefits to the peace negotiations that are ongoing . to demonstrate that you know, that these problems as can be upheld despite the political situation. yeah. knowing everything that you're told us now we also know that face, far as like the one that that started last night have broken down in the past. what makes this one different? is it really the trust that the 2, the 2 sides seem to have towards each other or, or is there something else to it to? so the both sides have very strong incentives to make this sees firestick. the 1st
12:18 am
one is the local election by colombia will hold in october. i think both from the government's perspective and from the humans perspective, it will be favorable about who goes forward without dress clashes between the 2 sides more broadly. you know, i think the government clearly won a good results from this process and this, the 1st is, they're really the 1st concrete when with us. but more importantly, the let itself um, you know, because the conflict in columbia has fractured and fragmented, and there are more groups today, the largest the fret of the land today is not the government state is actually all their criminal and art groups. and so from their perspective, not having to worry about fighting this, they provide them with the ability to focus on their true enemies, quote unquote, for territorial control, which are other on goods sweeping from the us perspective. this offers a important tactical advantage, and frankly the space in which the 2 sides can sit down and start to discuss the heart issues of the court. this conflict elizabeth dickenson of the international
12:19 am
crisis group. thank you so much for your input. thank you. so we didn't take great pride on this tradition of free space for all, but after a spade of protests that included the burning of koran sparked outrage and an increase in terror threats. the swedish government is finding itself walking a fine line between the liberal walls that allow the desecration of religious books and the prospect of restricting such acts to protect its national security. either way as terry shall take more sweden's, external borders or getting extra scrutiny, as the government approves, strengthened police powers to conduct controls. aiming to keep out, anyone who may seek revenge on sweden for the repeated torching of is loans wholly as text. so may affect, as we perceive and increase security threats as the results of the off the ground.
12:20 am
buildings is enough for us to make these decisions for administer bills from notes . the law allowing such activities may become more restrictive due to the dangers, the demonstrations create. one of which is a right propaganda opportunity for those who want to tarnish sweden's image with muslims. but in this case, as we have seen this for the 1st time restaurant using the narratives, focusing on the false picture of sweden being hostile to events, islam. they repeat things in narratives that we see in the stomach extreme in some uh, environment, and use that. again, their state controlled media channels like the rest of today. and it's put towards the arabic speaking people on thursday or will be for the swedish government, a man whose previous career and burning ignited a massive reaction in iraq, canceled his request for a permit. and only a lone woman staged a tiny anti islam protest. but even those small flames
12:21 am
can be found for propaganda in social media is this political activists who saw him l. demonte, who showed up to try to convince the woman to stop such provocative acts. i'm, i'm feeling cold. what, what are you doing now is, is a, is a hate speech is not a free speech. i think it's my job here to come. if i swear people who's angry from this to, to speak to try to come down. oh, good bodies, real job is an investor. he's no longer a practicing muslim. that feels is crucial to speak to crowds on both sides of the issue at korean burnings. to try to tempt down societal tensions. he confirms the kremlin is cashing in on this strife. in the arabic speaking world, the elements of flesh and the feeling is quite a show. for example, here for 10 kissing the for on one of many profiles like congress will finds you say, like the pictures is showing everything. this is why we must lands with moscow,
12:22 am
and this kind of messages have us like equity. so it is effective and it's a dangerous and, and we need to, to, to, to, to make a stop with this. a recent pool shows most leads, believe burning. any holy book should be made illegal, and a v as terry schultz file that report for us, and she joins me now from russell. very good to see you. you just return from sweden. what's your impression? do people view these burnings more as free speech, or have speech? that depends nicole very much, of course, on the religion of the person that you're asking many swedes are, are not just that religious, and most of them are not muslims. so they have traditionally viewed these kind of demonstrations as free speech, of course, muslims, you, them as hate speech. but what we see evolving in sweeter society is it, they see that there's so much tension is created by these incidents that they believe that it should not be legal to burn any religious book. so that's what you
12:23 am
see and public opinion polls. and that's what people told me when i asked them in the street. they would like to see it made illegal to bring any religious books because of what they have seen. a rise in society due to these repeated and the increasing prevalence of these crown brings, these burnings have mostly been led by a man from a rock who's on there briefly in your report. what's known about his motivation. so that's right, the menus on and my report is so one moment hub, but he's not the only provoke a tour. there's another, a rocky refugee like monica named. so in our gym, he also participates in these burnings. and you saw this woman who has repeatedly also burned a korean as a protest against is long in general. so there are a number of characters who apply for these permits repeatedly to burn koreans. now these 2 are rocky. men say that they want the qur'an burned in sweden altogether. that's never going to happen. so i think that their motivations,
12:24 am
their state and motivations are probably quite suspicious. and there have been accusations that uh, outside forces are behind these, these protests including moscow. mm hm. and in the, as long as the world, these incidents are, of course, being read as sweden being hostile to muslims. it has gotten swimming into hot water with turkey. for example. at that all is things in part, and he mentioned that there to russia, selling it that way, and we saw it in your report as well. so when does the kremlin home to gain by spreading? does information about these burnings as the cat, the crumbling has everything to gain by spreading this information? and it's really easy as you, as you saw in my report, what the kremlin does is simply it's, it's a russian state owned media. repeat what is being said in the muslim world, these hostile statements, they amplify them in parts of the world that are susceptible to this information.
12:25 am
latin america, africa, and this works very well for them. they simply translate them into, into arabic and, and spread them all over the world with their very effective troll farms. and then you see the president vladimir putin stage events like kissing a crown on a muslim holiday in stating that you know, rush of use. these books is holy and we should protect them. and there are other countries, of course, meaning sweden that don't do that. so this is a perfect propaganda opportunity for vladimir putin and that's one of the very real threats that these, this has created for sweden. as a result of all this, the swedish alternatives have serious security concerns now and in your opinion and effort and talking to all the people you talked to over there. how real is the threat? so they definitely believe this threat is real to the point that they have now tightened their border this week just when we were there yesterday, the government a finalized these plans. so they have now given their police extra powers to uh,
12:26 am
to make border controls. that means they'll be checking vehicles, they'll be asking more questions of people trying to come into sweden to make sure that they don't have terrorist intent. and this is something that's difficult to do anywhere in the shang and so, so it means something that sweden is, is asking for more controls on his board. or there are exemptions when you believe national security is the state. and the swedish government very much does believe that at the moment, at the same time, the government is considering giving police more power to deny the permits to burn these koreans as we've been talking about. they are protected as free speech. but again, with national security, is it stick with these permits? the police may be given more powers to say, you know what, we're not going to allow you to do this because of what it, what it creates a we've seen embassies of sweden be burned in the muslim world because of these incidents here in stock on something very much fuel, these security threats are real, and we've seen that there are very real impacts of elsewhere in the world, right?
12:27 am
so it's freedom of speech versus internal security to narrow it down. there's many layers to this, but something we'll have to do. what's more important to sweets than the swedish government is, is definitely reconsidering what it has always held to be a very proud tenant this, this freedom of speech. and as we see these messrs being taken, i think they're deciding that the use of these incidents around the world to hurt sweden to hurt sweden's image are just not worth it and they don't weigh as terry shells. thank you so much for that. and that's our time we're ready, but make sure to stay informed. stay engaged and stay in touch. so you can follow our team on twitter or next as as know now at to be the leaders and myself acts. nicole underscore, florida. if it's the latest headlines you're looking for, there is support always our website that it's data we are now though, from the entire team here on the day and berlin, thank you so much for spending part of your day by the
12:28 am
