the help will come to late rescue is scouring the debris for the bodies of those who could not escape the unpredictable forces of nature which scientists one will, was due to climate change. earlier i spoke to the w report, the casino kobe's bosco in buttons. yeah. and also what went wrong with spans where the warning system to, well, i have to make here it's or 21st times and there was a, there was the region from the east side to him by himself. where if you go to rain, a lot of me day on tuesday and there were they were m reno from there were there were these slash slips days, but it's at this time at the at 1 pm. the make a 1st conference. somebody shift towards the past, everything was now course been traded in this side of the region in the east side
1:05 pm
of the region, and they say it will be no fit or from the coast part we're finding stays with the cities with no i um, so the people here, me my so for example, i went to the cinema and it was 8 to 8 pm and we became the under from your smartphones saying that it was her, it was, it was these others with others. but at that time it was, it was already here. so these one seems to be taking 2 legs every oh, $30.00 or warnings because they must have the water was coming to the inside. i think they didn't see that. no. and when they told me it was too late for so many people that were trapped in their cars to the workshop when they were bringing their keys and the kids dressed from school, they were shopping centers and these are open. did it try to go images we're seeing right now. us as a w as chief accomplishment, both of the results bundle has been the studio now. uh,
1:06 pm
louise. we've heard this whole cold drop triggered the storms. that's cold, low pressure system coming in from the atlantic. heating, i will mediterranean add, it's probably unusual, but how does climate change coming to this? yes, what i mean obviously climate change wasn't the cause of best explain weather event, but the fact that you know, there has been so much heat over the mediterranean, over the summer, etc. meant that was a little cool to that had a run is operated into the atmosphere that'd be atmosphere as a result of climate change is hotter and able to hold more volumes of water up to 7 percent per degree of, of course is roaming. so this means that, you know, there is a lot more water in the atmosphere. so when we get, you know, these weather events, then there is more water flowing as well, that can cause these, these big catastrophes. so climate change where they increase the amount of water in the atmosphere and that means heavier rain storm. exactly. what can communities do to try to reduce the impact of these heavy upgrading stones that we can expect?
1:07 pm
i mean it's clear that all thirties need to be reevaluating infrastructure that is in place and whether it is able to cope with moving to that would be flowing as a result of climate change. um, there are also things that they can do. they're called nature based solutions, so this will be like pumping more trees for example, which are able to absorb water and can prevent some of the issues involved with flooding. there is also in boston, for example, the authorities are working on putting in place parks, which are built specifically to deal with a big volumes of water, so slow the water can go with that. exactly. so the meadows, for example, that can take the water. there are also like dams built into the infrastructure, so the water isn't making its way into neighborhoods and things like that. but obviously one of the things that's also been mentioned with this particular inst and is the early warning systems need to be taken more seriously. you know, some people have suggested for example,
1:08 pm
having drills in the same way that you know, some communities do for us, quakes of for so nami is, for example, now spain has is a devastating drought. so the policy is as well, of these, all these extreme weather events too much, was that not enough water? is that going to increase? yeah, i mean these, these events also feed into each other. i mean, droughts make flooding was because the ground is less able to absorb both that because it's so dry and hot, for example, the wealth weather attribution, the group of scientists who study the links between climate change and these weather events have said that the, the last 10 deadliest events that took place of the last 2020 is right. and um, led to about half a 1000000 deaths were all influenced in some way by climate change services. heat waves, droughts, floods. and you know, it is the most vulnerable communities that are suffering as a result of this,
1:09 pm
we have a data report that we're putting out today that talks about, you know, the communities. so we're talking about children, women, the elderly who are most impacted by extreme weather events, and also low income communities, but don't have the infrastructure in place to deal with slipping in the same way as richer communities might actually find supports on losing response. thank you very much though he's gone out to have a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. today. taiwan is being hit by the biggest storm to strike the island and nearly 30 years. many people have been injured and fast and stuff like the home type phone call me raise talking wins over 180 kilometers pro as well as military has issue to an evacuation order for residents of lebanon's, eastern city of bobby, for the 2nd consecutive de la evidence health ministry says is really strikes have
