the the if you were in the united states, spain, italy, greece recently where a heat waves made going outside hazardous to your health. today's news will confirm what you probably suspected. the month of july 2023, was the hardest on record, the average temperature on the entire planet higher, but it has ever been in fact, there were several days when the daily average temperature broke that key. 1.5 degree celsius ceiling, signed to say, july was not a one off, but rather one of many more to call. the alarms are already sounding tonight. what are we doing to turn them and the temperatures down? i'm bring golf and berlin. this is the day the you get a definitive, incredible,

i've never experienced such high temperatures. it's really all the plumbing tools or even just walking outside. you feel your skin the, to you to global warming k as in the, of the heat, a global boiling. as of right, it's like being inside the sooner i'm finding it difficult to breathe. i've been in this business for 40 years and, and all that time, it has never been this hot also coming up a leader is from a south american countries are meeting to save the amazon rain forest before there is nothing left to say, no complete village. it is never be more urgent to resume and expand this cooperation. you that feels that most of the challenges of our era and the opportunities that arise demand of joint action or to reviewers watching on cbs in the united states. and to all of the around the

world welcome. we begin today with the official confirmation last month july was the hardest on record. not only was it the fund this month on record, it was the hottest by a wide margin. europe's climate monitor, the copernicus, climate change service report to today that the average global temperature in july was 16.95 degree celsius of that's an increase of 0.33 degrees compared to the last record high that was set 4 years ago, a jump of one 3rd of one degree may sound small, but scientists say it is more than enough to make our weather more extreme more often, the heat weights help to push the average global temperature above the key 1.5 degrees limit several days in july. so how to reduce the number of spikes before it's too late. we spoke to samantha burgess earlier,

she's deputy director of the copernicus, climate change service and we talked to her about the increase in temperatures and the knock on the facts on weather and the oceans. yes, it is say the record and temperatures and the record ocean temperature is directly linked to the concentration of greenhouse gases in a very huge number of factors. the impacts global warming of either the at the land surface or the, the ocean surface surround dates and speaks to the ocean surface relative than the whole ocean. and there's a big difference between what happens on the surface fusion, because it directly absorbs solar radiation for heat energy from the sun versus the depression. and in terms of the different ways the, the ocean kimball mount. so one can be that it warms up because the atmosphere above it is boma. so it is direct strange that one,

the ease 3 karns coming from underneath one the another method is 3 additional solar radiation. so when we have the weather patterns, the big looking highs, it's nice and still a cloud for use counties. you get a lot more solar radiation. the ocean is a dock surface the absolves, more of the solar radiation. and these are just some of the mechanisms that have led to these record in global ocean surface temperatures. when the ocean is boma, particularly the surface ocean is less efficient at absorbing a sheets and absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. so we know you that already the ocean that has absorbed about 90 percent of the excess heat from human energies climate change. and as the surface ation williams is going to be less effective, absorbing additional heat, less effective at absorbing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. so this

means until we turn off the top of the emissions entering the atmosphere, the climate change will continue to increase, which means we'll get increases in global temperatures and globalization and temperatures. and this is why scientists are encouraging ambitious action to get to that theory as quickly as possible. because we know from the scientific evidence that with a woman, well, we're more likely to have more and, and more frequent extreme events. so that was samantha burgess. they were speaking with us earlier, the us state of texas has become a poster child for clean energy projects. it's already the biggest producer of wind power in the us. and it's well on its way to claim me the title for solar energy to but this kind of green has some texans seeing rit, everything's bigger in texas. they say no doubt when it comes to renewable clean energy. this brings to no other place in the us as more wind and solar energy plans

and projects in the so called lone star state. so far so good bucks is about what makes texas interesting is 95 percent of the land in texas is privately owned. 83 percent of that land is work in the past. those large blue areas landscape so huge privately owned farms and kettle ranches for which texas is also famous for gave way for more and more equally massive wind turbine and solar panel projects all over the state. but that's no more. this is michael tickets were meeting the grandson of american business magnate. people picking some dice, texas just east of south. michael is active in a group of land owners who post a renewable energy project in the account. he's taking us on a little tour to show us that a massive solar farm here is a bad id, mostly wetland and densely forest and area. the impact on the environment of the bio and the cost system here is devastating. yeah, it's a business,

it's capitalism. and it's maximizing profit, but you know, for us that level over here you know, what, 4th, 5th generation texan, i'm use my home, michael says he and his friends, and many of his neighbors will continue to push against what they deem is the wrong place for a solar panel form barry wire san angelo in the west texas around here. the sun is almost always shining. the town has space a lot of space. large solar and wind energy projects makes sense here. solar present, some really, really important advantages. not only in terms of energy production, but in terms where i'm of the economy in its growth. 3 big solar projects brought an investment of $800000000.00 into the account. which brings us back to like pickens, you know, take it somewhere in san angelo. there's a whole bunch of flat, treeless homeless land up all over the panhandle. you can put

a lot of solar despite the bleak reality of ongoing and increase of the fights and legal battles between preservationist landowners and the renewable energy industry . many here, sensible and regulation, preparation and solutions for the future. the tensions between china and the united states are now drawing in the philippines. the chinese embassy in manila is accused washington of stirring up trouble in the dispute itself, trying to see that is where the 2nd thomas show was located. that's in a toll which china and the philippines both claim us is now publicly backing manila in this dispute on tuesday, trying to demand to the philippines. remove the vessel which has been grounded on the reef and used as a military outpost since 1999. last week the chinese coast guard. as you can

see right there used water cannon to prevent a filipino ship from re supplying a small garrison which the philippines maintained on board. that vessel. alright, i want to bring in military analysts. bradley bowman, now he's with the foundation for defense of democracies. brands get to see him again. good to have you back on the program. taiwan is usually why you, when i talk about the us in china to night, it's the philippines. what do you think china is up to here or? you know, great to be on again, you know, years ago basing drew this uh, what i would call arbitrary 9 dash line, which is widely viewed as having no foundation in international law around the south trying to see basically saying, hey, everything inside this belongs to us. and disregarding the legitimate claims and many cases of other countries, such as vietnam and the philippines after certain in that line, what is china done? they, they found this little outcroppings they built these islands. they armed them to

the teeth and basically said to us and others stay out if we don't want you hear it, what's the goal? i think the goal was to seize resources and territory project chinese military power and parts united states and others out. and obviously other countries, including the philippines, don't appreciate the so a few years back, the philippines took one of their world war 2 vessels and grounded in the 2nd time a shoal, which by the way, is inside the philippines. exclusive economic zone. and china has no legitimate claim to and has been re supplying a small number marines there for years. and periodically, when the philippines tries to resupply them, china comes in with it's a maritime militia. these fishing boats acting like fishing boats, even though they're not, or their coast guard and, and they harass the filipinos inside their own exclusive economic zone. the tricky thing here is i, i'm being cute, is that the philippines is a treaty ally of united states. and so if this comes to blows, we can quickly have this escalated in to

a conflict in the us. i'm trying. yeah. and that is what john is saying. china is accusing the us of gathering allies now. um you gather allies before you go to ward? don't you to yeah, you know, that's an interesting term gathering allies. well, you know, news last united states, the philippines have been allies since 1951. so we've kind of been at this a while, i would say as americans and, you know, the interesting thing is people want to be or allies. so we don't need to do a lot of gathering. they come to us because they know we don't really want to conquer their territory and stay around and they don't have the same uh, that same level of confidence with beijing, the us state department. but put out a statement just 2 days ago saying that any attack on philippine public vessels, aircraft armed forces, including those of its coast guard in the south china sea, would invoke us mutual defense commitments which you were mentioning. so what is the feel a teen refuse? to remove that ship, serving as a base on the until as china is demanding,

i think the philippines have every right to send their vassals, both commercial and military anywhere they want in their exclusive economic zone and try and it has no basis to claim that they need to remove it, so you know, it's, you know, so what gives them that, right to say that and what gives them that right to, to take, take this aggressive and frankly dangerous action towards the filipinos. i would really turn the question, respectfully back evasion. what the danger level though, of, of something like this, escalating and out of control. what danger level would, would you give it, bro? i mean, i know is it, does it maybe seem like it's, it's very likely, but we know that that part of the world is if it's a place where accidents can easily happen, as absolutely we've seen instances in history where small things become big one, there's a lack of communication or misunderstanding and that's why the us has really been

trying to have more reliable communications between the 2 military's and beijing is pushed back on that. so i'd say we need to get better or more reliable communication and beijing needs that kind of stuff. these extra legal claims, but the most dangerous thing here is i think, being solved in the face of a might, may rate might, makes right policy, i'd say weakness. and in, in the face of this is really the most, the stabilizing thing. the west is strengthening its defense alliance, has been the philippines and with japan. weird as the us see. the threat in the medium term. you know, the, the wording, the bi ministrations use is made clear that really, beijing, china is the leading or the pacing challenge. they like to work challenge, i prefer the word adversary and they, they've talked about russia being the acute threats. but bottom line is we see these 2 countries closer than they've been since the 1950s received them. conducting military exercises, doing a pretty aggressive sales around japan,

land based exercises, insight inside china. integrating forces up to the brigade level sharing best practices one another. and then we saw this joined to combine patrol just off the coast of alaska. recently the largest we've seen today. yeah, i mean i've, i've heard people describe it as unprecedented and outrageous that they would even do this to you know, they were in international waters. i might not use the word outrages. so, you know, i would say, and they're sending a message despite what they're saying, they're chloe sending the message there. they're saying, hey, we can work together, you know, obviously bathing dreams that have an allies united states house, but russian, china are close. we think china echoing the talking points of putting, with respect to the unprovoked invasion of ukraine, and we see their realtors working more closely together, which is a concern for the united states. because we've never, we have never had the capacity necessary to deal with 2 major conflicts at the same time. and for conducting strategic coordination. we can see a problem, for example,

if the baltics and also on the taiwan strait in the same time. and that would be a problem. and before i let you go, i do have to ask you about, i want you to, you are a big advocate of the us and turning to i want into a porcupine so that it doesn't get attacked or invaded by china. what's the status on that porcupine? to not, you know, the perky pines quills are not enough and they're not sharp enough for move. the bi ministration i would say is moving the right direction, doing almost everything i would want them to do, but to gosh darn slow. they got to speed up or we're gonna have a problem, right? brand new billing with the foundation for the defense of democracies is always brand good talking with you. we appreciate your insights. thank you. thank you. the leaders from 8 nations linked to the amazon base in our meeting in brazil to try to secure the reinforce the future. hundreds of people from indigenous communities march outside the event to draw attention to various threats facing the region of this is the 1st summit in 14 years and it

comes with the time and scientists of warning, the destruction of the rain force is approaching a tipping point results president, the recent sales move of the silver has called the meeting, a landmark initiative to say the amazon. i told you that we had no match for 14 years. after we made a vase, it is the 1st time we made by the error and power of state to be made a vein on the 1st time in a context of a severe worsening of the climate crisis. no couple of those, it is never be more urgency to resume and expand this cooperation. you that feels that most of the challenges of our era and the opportunities that arise demand of joint action. hi buena holding out my colleague, nicole rizza, she is our columbia correspondence. she is currently in the village of billing. nicole is going to see you. i understand that indigenous people are protesting. talk to me about how they feel about this. some is

indeed indigenous people have been protesting here, but quite a peacefully is there a moment because these are the people who feel the consequences of the destruction of the amazon rain forest directly. it's not only areas that have temperatures rising to degrees above to normal. it's also that trees a goal and that water is poisoned by mining activities. so they want to make sure that their voice is not being heard, not only through protests, but also by attending the social dialogues that have been taking place here in the city of the lam uh before the summit started. and that was actually hundreds of thousands of people who joined from different countries to make clear that they need to structure to be stuff the extradition of, of fossil fuel to cetera in the forest needs to stop. now, not tomorrow. so yesterday, now just a moment, and is it, are those very steps or decisions? are they being negotiated right now?

and, you know, basically to stop exploiting the lungs of this plan. the general plan here is to come to a consensus. that's all the countries that share the amazon congress can agree on a 0 deforestation policy, for example, that is, sees a stop into the forcing the areas that uh, so of so much value to the whole international society as well because of climate crisis. that's one point, there's also an intention to seek to support more by economies that almost sustainable and shifting away a bit from the extraction industries. but this will also be one of the main points that will cost some of some rep to here. i think because these are very important industries, economic is speaking and to just focus on something else will be major step. but also the major challenge, of course, and then socially it needs to be just as people who live in the amazon of rain for

us need to have and you cannot make advantage. but also they need to be seen. and this is also a very top priority, at least from the lula, because for the 1st time and did you this people actually half of say, and they were at the di looks and that being taken into account of hopefully and today we got confirmation that july was the hottest month on record on our planet. is that playing a role in these talks? i mean, is that and helping people to bridge their differences? and there are, of course, the political differences here between the countries. one of them, for example, is the topic of x at the extraction of federal and the same president who does opting for a change in energy policies hasn't shared, has a very public opinion about what will happen to the direction of petrol. he's been very ambiguous about it, and this could be kind of, you know, an issue between the different countries because it's a huge industry, the countries,

one to earn money multinational companies want to in money. but it's actually not the step for what if you think about the ecosystem that we need to save here, and it's coming to a tipping point. so if we reset the tipping point, the for us will not only be great that will be no found feedback for the for us and hands won't be for the people connected to it. yeah, that is a very good point to i understand that you did a report, a balance and co code for me in the area. talk to us about that. indeed we went to see a small cocoa production here, close to the city of poland on one of the islands that surround the city. and this could be an example of how buy a economy looks like something that the v to see a one to support more in the future. and this would guarantee hardly to have a sustainable production. and on the other hand, also help people of course, to have an income prize in yellow this is how the cocoa puffs should look when it's ready for is that she cost to harvest

bible. mm hm. okay, so what's the wallet to it is still a bit acid though, but the ones that are meant to the city to they'll go wait a minute is so full of guy, you prefer the finance or so he said she costa has been growing co co for 40 years, it's a self made family business fail. she invested her own resources in farming sustainably, or on her 7 hector's. here on the island of combo, she follows the rules of elk grove forestry. combining agriculture with a natural environment. without chopping trees or chemical fertilizers and in sync with nature, political leaders and the amazon wants to boost sustainable bio economies to protect the forest. or new quote through loss is because as much as news, we need to lead us to really fun mcgregor and reform. for me to call her for my guy

at brack show that the small produces have access to micro credit. eh, can you think has incentives for causing problems such as help with machinery issues the coma tonight? is there no, probably not to become a big industry by the most traditional industry, which is a large small industries like cost those process everything themselves from the cocoa bean to a proper regional array of chocolate that she's proud of an investment could also give nature some respect from us exploitation and to help regenerate degraded areas . 20 percent off of brazil's amazon rain forest have been affected by destruction, mainly due to agricultural activities and projects like this here close to below them could show the way to more sustainable agriculture. but at the same time also provide income for local communities, but as ever, keeping the balance is paramount. semantics of products from the regions such as

cocoa is on the rise and bass increases the risk of creating a monoculture, the further damages the forest. biologists but treat c a p o says the concept of bio economies needs to strongly focus on local communities in order to work. these communities are also victims of the destruction of the amazon. they wanna like, have a one to have out on me to the decisions that concerns their, their therapy toward the one other future generations, their key to, to be able to see the same products or practice that they already have. so i think that that's something that we should be really keeping in mind that one of their livelihoods to be maintained. so quality is more important than quantity to preserve what we will benefit from that so. so the way to go for is edgy cost. uh, a coco farmer who as long understood, but the future of a healthy rain forest will determine the future of human kind.
