wonderful guy, welcome to the program. so the flooding is continuing to reach, have a control central and eastern europe the following days of torrential, right. the situation remains critical in many areas as more diverse bus that backs at least 15 people have died across poland, austria, romania, and the czech republic, also known as chechen southern jump. and it's been affected as well in the worst flooding that some regions have seen from both in 20 years. and tens of thousands have been forced to flee the rising walks at levels across central europe. stone bars has filled the streets of picturesque towns with muddy sludge. raging rivers have destroyed road and rail bridges, leaving towns divided. paula as prime minister donald, to his cause, announce to more than a quarter of a 1000000000 euros in funds to deal with some of the worst flooding in decades.
6:02 pm
it means that if you know, so the minister of finance has a showed me that they will be no shortage of money, whether for immediate or long term a level. yes, that's a neighboring check. here several people are dead and others missing off to being swept away in the vehicles. residents in the mountain town of just a nic describe the impact of surging waters as an apocalypse. on a level down the was that was rolling in here, mont, dakota into our house. it's not so bad the, but this is a disaster. it's terrible, really terrible. while much damage is already clear, many structures are still teetering on the brink of collapse, leaving residents to wonder if they can return to their homes. until 2 meetings of water ran through the streets and there was a well pool that undermined the house. and who knows how it will end or if it will need to be taken down or not. the few positive check here has been sped.
6:03 pm
hundreds of thousands of homes have been left without power. evacuation orders have been extended to major cities as defensive, dykes, fail, and rivers break their banks. many reservoirs have reached their capacity. this dam in austria is approaching its limits, and the disaster is far from over with more rain on the way sand bags. and now the only hope for many on swollen rivers like the danube. major cities like budapest could be next to face the floods. let's get more of this from last ventilation. he's chief executive of the bro, meet your logical society in london. a welcome to the w i. dr. bentley, the central and eastern europe, i think generally pro, to flooding. and so we have seen floating events in this part of the will be full. that's not unusual, but i think on this occasion it's the extent of the amounts of rain folder as. busy
6:04 pm
well, and i know if it's such a wide area, so it's covered, you know, a number of countries as you've shown and not the whole whole with the catchment areas have been deluged in heavy rainfall. so i think it's the sheer amount of grain is full and the extent to which the a we recover is, is, is squarely some precedent. okay, so what should we be ascribing base meet these extremes to do? do we presume that it's madman, climate change? yeah. so we have a very stationary where the parents hadn't pulled the codes off, lo, these aren't unusual to get at this time of year in this part of the wealthy means the weather passed and just got stuck and that whole rain just falls continuously for days on end, i think that all at some signal. so climate change here. so we've had a very well mediterranean sea this year because breaking temperatures in the mediterranean sea that has fueled energy from the heat. but also mo, moisture in the atmosphere is that warm mediterranean sea has exasperated more
6:05 pm
moisture into the atmosphere. and we know a warm climates that the atmosphere can hold more moisture. so typically we've seen a 10 percent increase in the amount of moisture that the atmosphere can hold because of human induced climate change, which means when we get these right and pull events, the rainfall is so much heavy as we've seen, overreach the days. so from what you've said, it sounds like this can be predictable. we looked at what was going on summit and as you say, the extra energy in the system. so down stream or further along in, in the we can expect vso to be events. so presumably we should not be planning for this to. yeah, so that's right. so there's 2 things here. we, we know from our climate projections that these events so now likely more likely to happen then they have to happen before. we also have very good weather forecasts. so this particular event was forecast daisy not found. so we have warnings that can
6:06 pm
be put out days enough funds for local authorities to take action, but also for the public to, to take themselves away from these areas as bestbuy. com to, to put themselves out of danger. so i think this initiative to have more warnings, timely weather warnings because we can't stop these vengeful events from happening . but we can provide information to the public when they're likely to happen. but also, as you cite plumbing for these things, we know we're going to get more of these events in the future. so we need to have rates of defy consist in place, but can cope with them. so for example, in poland as a great flips, they have the 1997, a devastating. there was a lot of funding wednesday in some pro flip defenses in place. those are now being tested by this particular science. and it will be interesting. after we see the aftermath of the split into how much those flood defenses actually coat with this particular situation. and as we see basic string, weather events, extreme estates,
6:07 pm
in some places and extreme rain and other systems, not like a bit of a weird question for. so i've always one that. are we looking at less rain overall? i'm just thinking, but does this mean that if we now start to build a rest of was and dom systems, we can actually use this in some way in the future a little bit like farming them face. so we don't climate change and we either have periods where we have too much windfall, like we've seen over the last few days across europe. or we have periods where we have 2 levels of info, and we've seen the drought conditions across the southern half of us. so we have to become much back to managing those. i mean and see situations. why was too much rain or too little van, full dry you pretty much better than i could have. thank you so much, at least by the way from the wrong vision, logical society and minded. thank you. okay, we'll take
6:08 pm
