in life, go on after all the terror. not everyone can endure the fear we felt every day. when we start to august 25th on dw, the, this is the the, the news line from the land was via his rage, across wise islands of molly destroying an historic town, killing several people and forcing residents to see authorities urging torres to stop traveling to the island and so many uh, deals with a different kind of extreme why the, you patches,

a 100000000 euros and age often major thoughts. plus these as quinta appears is front of the, stabilize in the country of to a breeching. it's s base and free quote. terrorist elements the i'm a handed mohammed, welcome to the program. you as president are binding this, sending the military to help fight while flies raging across hawaii, the molly island. at least 6 people have died and hundreds of buildings have been destroyed. more than 2000 residents have been forced to evacuate the homes with major fire, still burning on molly and the nearby big island authorities have worn to the death toll could rise a paradise lost as flames engulfed, the resort town of the high. no. the only escape was by sea,

some wasted until the last moment to flee. the, so far as our thoughts are nearest time to go. the firestone fire ripped through the tourist hotspots with little warning. many of these buildings no longer stand witness to say, much of love, hina has been turned to ash and we just have the worst disaster i've ever seen online through chris

bog lips. evacuation efforts were disrupted by power and telephone service outages . roads were cut by flames. fire experts say molly island was waiting to ignite droughts had left the dense bushland dangerously dry winds from the passing hurricane. dora created the perfect firestone way when we are preparing for the hurricane. we, we expect green ablaze we expect floods. we never anticipated in this state. that as a hurricane which did not make impact on our islands will cause this type of wealth flyers while fliers that wiped out communities. while fliers that wiped the businesses, while fliers that destroyed homes, officials searched the tourists to stay away from the holiday island. thousands

took shelter in the airport, waiting to evacuate. we're actually going to go to sleep. there's a lot of wildfire there, so we because of the wildfire. hawaii is just the latest place affected by extreme conditions. scientists say the world has just experienced its hottest month in recorded history, exacerbated by human, caused climate change. while you're i spoke to matthew cook poochie, he's a major ologist and at this very exciting space in washington dc, he says dry weather and strong winds of fueling the fuzz. well, i think one thing that's very much tea is that they've had a drought lately. the air there was dry, the land is little bit dryer than average. and obviously you have dryer temperatures, which means dry conditions and more fuel available to burn. but at the same time,

i fire this big, which does far as burn about $240.00 to hector's can only grow to that size if the winds are strong, then it is a case right now. how retain door a pass about 800 kilometers south south west upon a lulu. but at the same time, it's winfield was big enough that they're still seeing wins flowing in the storm of about 60 to 70 kilometers per hour. those eastern or these winds will continue much of the day. and again, augusta were 70 kilometers per hour, helping those flames to spread right now. 6 people haven't confirmed dead about 12000 people on the northwest people. now we're in the town of behind our biggest risk 2100 people are in shelters at this hour as well. now looking at the pictures that we just showed, lots of the areas affected, looked like a forest. and in those night shots to see if we can pull them up again. but actually from what i was reading much of them, a holmes, how's a surprise to how quickly this is escalated? i think one thing that is very unfortunate about a situation like this is that it's much like the fires we saw in colorado several

years ago. obviously fires do happen in natural territory, but when you have homes that are close together, it that much easier for the plains hot from one building to another to another thing is that essentially to the fire, that's just a big stack of wood. that's just the stack of fuel. so yes, that is kind of the, the most difficult part with this. but right now we have about 7.7 percent of the entire state of hawaii. under at least a moderate drought or worse. there is worse than one year ago, and the i believe him now he is, seems to me the worst route at this point. so yes, it is significant, but really it's one of those situations where even those abnormally dry, the wind is the biggest factor and how tightly packed homes are, is another big factor that just focus through the changes and the weather patterns that we're seeing taking place elsewhere. around the worlds well, one thing that we've noticed in the past and particularly the past decade or so has been end up taking the amount of extreme fire behavior we're seeing not saying

that's necessarily case this time around. but as you're continues to warm, you have hotter temperatures, which sap the ground of moisture even more made it easier for the landscape to burn simultaneously when you have big, sprawling heat dooms or regions of high pressure in control. which is what brings very warm temperatures to begin with. you also sort of expand the atmosphere vertically. what that does is allow the fires to grow taller, allow the smoke to pour higher into the atmosphere and allow realistically for that extreme fire behavior to become more common. we've seen that time and time again over california, over russia, over alaska, in the past several years. this sort of a different type of fire, this more a structure fire compared to big boiler, a forest fire. but regardless, you know, whenever wind is a factor, you tend to get higher end results. i think i put you. thank you very much indeed for your time. thank you. are now extreme weather of another kind. has devastated parts of sylvania southern has affected 2 thirds of the country's

population, european commission president or slip on the line travel to savannah to offer a west more than a 100000000 euros deputies. rosie birth child has more of the, the force of nature is on su, display here, and prebble your homes swallowed up by the river crossings, crushed by flooded water valve, cover federal fire, social security. it covers your traffic. some professional pipes have been torn from the bridge and that's where destroyed here. i know 20000 people have no access by running water. but what's the force of civilian solidarity is on show to volunteers are turning up here daily to help with repairs. start to start carter, this is what we do hope we can get better if we can on for forward and people can slowly return to their normal lives which are on our driveway.

right across stuff are also working overtime, collecting understanding of donations to the worst take turns. and then the tools we put in some boots for work and a box of gloves, working laws and for cleaning, and lots of other supplies. and this is by people who are not in the world defected regions, right? yes. this is from the generosity of people arrows and they keep showing up with the population of 2000000 were told almost everyone in for the new someone in need. we like to help each other, especially i have a lot of friends, so i'm also very emotional about that. and unfortunately the european union has a nice long term. so with our 2 funding for the flood roberts nation, and i materials support from member states in the meantime, you have stands by your side. we were with you in the 1st days,

immediately with the material that was needed, as it is the mobile bridges, the excavators, the helicopters, and the technical team and the crews. and of course, we will stay as long as it is necessary. but the whole titans remain cut off, and as the scale of the damage grows clear, the cost of reconstruction can only claim higher. for no video is still an emergency mode of late south american countries have agreed to form an alliance to fight the destruction of the amazon rain forest at a 2 day summit in brazil. the lead is released to joyce declaration on tackling deforestation. but they felt a sudden finding targets to come back. the issue critic saved won't be enough to protect the amazon the deputies, the coal rece is at that summit in belgium. so it certainly depends on your point

of view on life may be, but i think more could have been done. there is some small consensus, for example, that it needs to be avoided to reach a tipping point in the amazon rain forest that needs to be more sustainable business, more sustainable development. indigenous communities need to be protected better and strength and more because the vital part and the protection of the rain forest as well. but the big announcement of the solid and drastic decisions that everybody was expecting were fully short. there is no such a place as for the end of the 1st station. for example, there are pledges like they will tackle criminal activities in the rain forest more . they will hopefully also be some stronger laws and better stations to protect the forest. but there's no timeline to that, and that's really an issue because everybody was pressing about how a little time we have left, if none. and the other issue was also the extraction of fossil fuels which was being discussed. but we don't see it reflected in this declaration and as we know,

the extraction of fossil fuels is doing great damage to this huge environmental ecosystem. and so you have to ask how much of a double sand that we're looking at here? if for more on the one hand meters, a saying that we're in a really deep prices that we need to act now. and then in the declaration there is not much of a reflection or a deadline or very firm decision instead of being made. so let's take a look at some of the stories making headlines around the world. i'm equitorial presidential candidate has been shot and killed in the capital kiko and an identified gunman shot dead. fernando villa said valencia after a campaign ready. he was a vocals critic of corruption in ecuador, and a candidate running in the election scheduled for later this month. the gunman was reportedly killed by police and the us state of utah, f. b. i. agents have killed an armed man accused of making violent threats against president job. i did the f. b i said agents were trying to set up a warrant when the incident occurred just hours before by demands in the states.
