becoming more common. but they also point to the failures in the low cooling system. for not keeping residents in these high risk areas in valencia safe . the fact that we didn't hear those going to be so people in the bronze thing, they haven't received the warnings in time. and they've already neck deep in malta, when they got those alerts on their cell phones, you know, not suggest some things come fairly wrong there with the bullying system. springs prime minister petro sanchez. net with me to relo to collect spots and emergency workers in the region to discuss the flood damage as residents question, if more could have been done to wound them. climate researcher, how to handle, re explain to me the connection between climate change and natural disasters. as

we're witnessing in spain right now, you know, unfortunately around the world we're seeing these extreme weather events really just devastate populations. and it really depends on the type of event, if we want to say that climate changes produce some more severity or more frequency of thought about. so for example, with heat ways we're seeing a more frequency, more severity and a longer duration with things like tropical psych loans. we're seeing more severity now with regard to the floods in spain, which i've just been so devastating in the southern and eastern regions. i mean more than 205 tasks many left and accounted for your heart truly break to um for the local population. what we know is that 1st of all, the mediterranean sea actually recorded its highest temperatures to its own recorded history in august. so that region has been unfortunately prone to lots of drugs as he waves and as he evaporates water, the word air fluids were voyager and so that it turned to lead to these parental

the onboard. yeah, certainly devastating to see those images. do you expect greater action at this year's un climate change conference considering at the sheer number of extreme events that we've been c yeah, you know, unfortunately this year has just shot or climate record after climate record. i mean, i'm coming at you from the united states or we just had a serially destructive, hurricanes. hurricane helene and milton phillips, hundreds of people died or the $53000000000.00 in damages. we saw more than 1000 people with the iris here at the hodge in mecca because of the extreme heat. so there's your really has to put climate change in full focus and hoping that comp 29 will kind of carry those stories forward and make sure that countries will come around and can be, i think go shooting table. remember just how devastating these are about some bed for populations all around the world. how can we make our cities and communities more resilient to the worst effects of climate change?

as you know, i think there are a number of ways i'll highlight one in particular. so with the extreme heat that we've been having throughout this year, that has also been affecting the mediterranean region as well, which is partly why a lot of residents were not prepared for these freight ends because they've been dealing with heat and droughts. a lot of cities around the world have actually a pointed chief heat officers. you've seen this happen in los angeles, miami, santiago, she way. and the goal is really to highlight the local gaps and preparing the population to deal with that particular type of extreme weather event. and i think that stevie's across the world might need to do that kind of stuff take depending on what type of events that their work from to. i think we in addition have to look at infrastructure. you know, the european environment, the agency's suppose by europe is actually the fastest warming content on the planet. very punch the facts of climate change. and unfortunately, a lot of the infrastructure is just not present. we, it's not, you know, 2 years ago when the receipt waves of the united kingdom,

we saw rhodes actually buckling. and i think unfortunately that with the floods in spain, we're seeing but lack the infrastructure, resiliency coming into full play as well. yes, certainly a devastating to see the effects of us had a great to have you on the show and thanks for sharing all your expertise with this climate research hand handle. joining us from california tonight botswana is seeing it's 1st change in government in almost 60 years. president mark, let's see, my see, see of the ruling botswana democratic party has conceded defeat after being randomly beaten in parliamentary elections this week, as the celebrations began. after a surprise, landslide victory footboards one of the main opposition party and this meant to muscle like human rights lawyer. it said to be the country's next president degree of his body, the upgrade of democratic change broke the ruling. what's,
