6:05 pm
they are restricted to use in the vicinity of the course bridge here, they can still disrupt russian and north korean preparations for their counter attack against the ukrainians. and course this, by the way, we'll also send the message to you on yeah, that if you want to send troops over here to russia, they're going to start seeing the numbers of casualties amongst north korean troops . the russians have been experiencing some has been hodges speaking with this earlier. let's take a look down some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. india has closed schools in the capital delhi until further notice, as toxic smog envelops the capital. pollution is 60 times the daily maximum limit recommended by the world health organization. construction and non essential trucks have also been banned. the toxic air is being built across india and in parts of the neighboring pakistan. clean up efforts are underway in the wake of the super and type food, many which battered the philippines. a storm caused title searches,

6:07 pm
change is not just affecting environments around the world. it can also be a global health issue as well. plumbing temperatures and increasing rainfall promote the spread of dangerous diseases. we have this report from bangladesh on how dang he. fever is becoming more common due to climate change. doctors were expecting patients, but this year's been great outbreak, conductor bangladesh has overwhelmed the water. in the post cases of dang, they only rose during the season, but now they were doing a patient full year round. however, the season is more intense. we're under lots of pressure here. tank is a virus. the spreads for mosquitoes to people. symptoms are usually mild, but in severe cases it can be fatal. lemme ski turn numbers once dwindled include a months heavy of rain and warm a temperature is due in part to global warming costs by bonding fossil fuels, providing the conditions for them to survive. and it's not just in asia spring,
6:08 pm
in fact, decides in europe to kill us, be invasive. asian tiger mosquito, which transmits 10 k and other viruses like chicken good new and seeka has become more necessary as they move north fountain 8 to european union countries in 2013, just over a decade later, the species is fully established in 13, including france, germany, austria, and hungry and has been introduced in the for the 6 in 2023. that would then gain outbreaks in spain from some actually changing rains happens. and what conditions in the united states are also leading to saw the spread of disease from some species of take some of the key terms. people would be more exposed health systems, we have to cope with an increased burden of disease associated with these passages spreading. i mean, particularly, or we're gonna seeing, you know, cations starting to suffer from the impacts of infectious disease transmission
6:09 pm
locations that were previously considered relatively se, extreme weather events. lessons by rising temperatures are also taking a toll on human health. severe drought in some regions has decimated, corrupt, pompous leading to under nutrition example. floating can lead to contamination of water sources causing outbreaks of illnesses like diarrhea. the world health organization estimates that will be another $250000.00 deaths per year between 20302050 from health conditions linked to climate change. so what we need to do is quickly adapt to the high temperature is that we're already seeing. and we know that now we've continued to rise inevitably, but also to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions without action say x, but seems like this and unlikely to become more common across the globe will join. yeah, by rob butler, he's director for environment and health at the w. h o he joins is from black,
6:10 pm
who in azerbaijan, it's good to have you with this, you know, the health impacts of climate change or are clear how is that reflected in the negotiations at comp 29 where you are as well. thank somebody to me. indeed it's very promising actually that they are very governments are placed house at the sides of the discussions. indeed today is the health day a call in there by the previous call. we also have a dedicated today to house because a aspects of house are impacted by climate change. not just those that you saw in the report. that was just bro cost. you know, treat todd your basket of diseases, musky tub of diseases you saw in the video. also kansas linked with that collection mel nutrition from disrupted food systems as a huge, looming mental health process. i think in the european region where we're seeing
6:11 pm
this most, a q, the and that's the region which ice of the w. h of regional office based in copenhagen. we see this most acutely is on a heat house. just in the last year, we've seen a 175000 das from heat in your to be the crisis in your temperatures. our pricing uh, doubled the global price. so this is very alarming and something the countries have to prepare for, of course. yeah, we hear those reports all the time, how europe is eating up faster than the rest of the planet. how key in countries in vulnerable regions? how can they adapt to climate driven health threats and health challenges as well? let's take less time sheets as an example. how pete house either taishan plans, many countries don't have these plans in place. those countries that have meet health action plans implies that on the finance,
6:12 pm
many of those countries have not tested those heat health action plans. because of course, when you have a heat wave, when you have an expiring weather event, it's loving included, it puts an incredible button on your house system and it requires such resilience not only in the house system, but the community that does we, we test other plans emergency plans, pandemic plants in circles, but we, we seem to be a little behind the times on how we test our. yeah, heat health, action plans, not preparedness for climate induced and extreme weather events. and won't answer, could be more air conditioning here in europe. but, you know, as well as i do that, a lot of people think that that in itself would present the health risk. so it's almost like the solution could just compound the problem. absolutely, let me go. we've got got a cost comp in the machine. see, it's a spouse, simple, it's great for product rate house,
6:13 pm
and it's great for every living being on the planet. so planner tree house in the sense that of costs for greenhouse gases, we're going to see a reduction in climate change in a slowing down and the climate change. but if we can get clean high, particularly to people in phone or both situations, the most marginalized, we have 569000 premature deaths in europe from briefing for quality at every year. that is remarkable, that is something we can change if we choose to mitigate and do something about pano change and cut those emissions, which is why ultimately we're here in bathroom before we we're not talking, i want to ask you about the money is global climate finance. isn't meeting the scale of health risks that are posed by climate change. it's a great question. look all listing cop last year ends by never talking about
6:14 pm
billions needed in terms of investments. now that smoking trillions is just the g 20 a meeting today, those 20 countries contribute to 80 percent of global emissions. so it is a political choice. they can make the choice, they can invest, they have the money, the budget. but clearly we're not seeing the investment we need and that will be an exponential increase over the years if we continue on this cause for all butler director of health at the w. h of joining us tonight from fucker in either by john rob. we appreciate your time tonight. thank you. thank you for police and central thailand were forced to run for cover and to barricade themselves inside their station with hundreds of inmates, or rather as you see behind me, primate broke free from their cages. around $200.00 monkeys escaped their enclosure, running wild and squatting at the police freezing the captain said they had to sell off the building to prevent the animals from destroying property and police
6:15 pm
