>> professor, i thought what was report i fascinating, too, about this report is that in the northeast ea the report found a huge increase rains i of torrential rains and rising sea levels. >> that's right, even as california suffers from a massive drought. this translates into economic billion. damage about $100 billion. hurricane sandy cost $65 billion. the drought in the american southwest, $30 billion, forest fires ravaging colorado and the rockies, $1 billion.them. this is now being translated into real economic terms, erms meaning that people's homes are in danger new york city, for example, may have to have a s system of sea walls to protect itsel itself against another hurricane sandy. >> so what needs to be done? what are the best measures to take to avoid catastrophe? >> some things are rather easy ent.

to implement. more for example, more efficient car engines so that american cars are as good as european and japanese cars in terms of fuel efficiency. more difficult however, are those that involve jobs and economic live live hoods of people. so realize that the debate will shift away from the science of the climate change into the change. economics of climate change as people talk about jobs, the coal industry and are renewable for pri technologies ready for primetime? >> thank you very much professor. >> a jet took off from california and landed in hawaii last month. a boy hid in a wheel wellnd death-defying conditions.cs. jeff, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the teen-ager is now bag in california and the san jose iew hi police department is hoping to interview him later today. a key part of the security breach investigation is newly

mike morell is a former deputy director. good morning. >> good morning. >> let me begin with some sense of what the united states might do which is a question with respect to where you think this might come from and what the united states might do. >> the president said clearly to miggen glaros we're going to do everything we can. what's everything we can do? >> i think what it means is we can provide intelligence support, we can provide intelligence guidance on trying to figure out where these girls are, and then once we find them we can help the nigerians think about how to deal with the situation. that is absolutely the right thing to do. but i think you also have to think about the unintended consequences and a high profile u.s. support here could blow back on us. >> what's the likelihood we'll find these girls. >> i think the longer it takes the less likely we're going the

find them. i think some have already been sold into slavery and as more time goes by more will be sold into slavery. >> what are they? >> they're an insurgeongy, meaning they're fighting the nigerian territory for territory and they're a terrorist group. they want a conservative islamist government in northern nigeria. they don't want to take other all of it but they want to run it in a conservative ideological islamic way. >> what's the larger threat? >> the larger threat is that they have been engaged in discussions with al qaeda and islam ma which is an al qaeda related group. they have trained together. those two al qaeda groups have encouraged them to attack western interests. they have done so inside nigeria. my concern is that some day they may do it outside nigeria.

>> and so why can't they be shut down? are they a sophisticated group? it's mind-boggling they're able to get away with this time and time again? >> the military simply does not have the reach into northern nigeria that it needs to deal with this problem. >> and there's a great cooperation between the nigerian government and u.s. to do something. >> there's always been behind the scenes. it's just now more visible. >> when you look at the fact that we receive and it's not new to see young women sold into slavery, but is this a newer tactic, larger tactic on the part of terrorist groups? >> this group has conducted a number of attacks against schools, both girls schools and boys' schools. dozens were killed. they have done this before not this large. >> why? >> because they believe any sort of education is anti-islamic.

>> the u.s. has been reluctant to use military forces to get involved in regional conflicts or other fights in africa in the past specifically darfur and other examples but why not in this instance? and do you think the administration might go further in this instance because it involves young girls? do you think special forces might be used? >> i don't think so because the group does not pose a direct threat to the united states. i don't think so. >> do you think they'll use drone technology to help? >> i think we might be willing to use drones to help find the drones but not to conduct any sort of action. >> so when they say there's a team being september, law enforcement, who's in that military team? >> advisers planners people who might think about how would we go in and conduct a rescue operation should we find these girls. >> we talk about nigeria and after ka. this is one more example of a broad spread of, you know where terrorism is other than in the middle east. >> correct. and this is one of the places

to communicate with their families has drawn worldwide outrage. and that's caught the nigerian gove government off guard. there are protests in the nigerian capital and a massive social media campaign. the #bringbackourgirls first used one week after the attack has been repieced on twitter more than a million times the. at this point the u.s. does not plan to send troops but it will provide intelligence and assistance it to any victims who marg survive or manage to escape. >> all right, margaret. the thank you so much. climate change is no longer in america's future. than it's happening right now. more than 300 experts prepared te the assessment saying droughts in the west and rainfall in the east are getting more intense. average temperatures in some areas are now at least 1.5 degrees higher compared to the mid 20th century. at the white house tuesday s president obama told meteorologist megan glaros, on assignment for "cbs this s morning," that congress needs to

using gmo foods. >> what's wrong with labeling wrong wit that? >> nothing. labe it is our right in this country to know what we eat. it is our right in this country to know how our food has been made. and so i can't see a real problem with labeling.o that being said gmo foods, there's no data that it's harmful and we really need to put the emphasis on educating people, not on hiding it but on educating people about what it can to. with global climate change, as you just mentioned happening, you can can't move the wheat fields of nebraska to new york city.s, it's just not going to happen. so we have to use science to do things right. but labeling is an inherent part of it, and we have to be transparent with the science. >> but most people think, though, dr. agus if you're labeling that it means caution or there's something bad that you need to be aware of. you're clearly say inging that's not the case. so why are food companies opposed to labeling? >> 64 countries in the world have labeling. >> when th in urine when they started labeling, nobody would use the food. and so the impetus needs to be on the education side.

comp companies are afraid if they don't use gmo foods they're not going to get a reproduceable crop every year. if bugs come ihey can't get all the corn they neeo makethe corn their product. we need to do science right, but we need to be transparent and honest about how we do it and bring in technology to show if it is safe.t is there's no data it's not safe. i don't think we've conclusively shown that it is safe. crops have been optimizedacre. not about health. he we need to think about both as we go forward. this field is dominated by a few very large companies. it needs to be dominated by science. >> there seems to be more a concern in europe than the united states. >> no doubt about it. there have been riots about it. the people protesting the use. we they've threatened to burn go fields fields. we need to not give up on science but use it for good. >> thank you, dr. david agus. the oklahoma city thunder take on the l.a. clippers tonight in game two of the western conference semifinals.

sigh fehr or math code. we'd solve it. go to the next room find another room by the time we got back there were our presents. >> from that you loved codes and symbols which show up in your book. >> they're fun. people do crossword puzzles because we all -- there's something in the hue han mind that loves that eureka moment, oh, i figured it out. that's part of what these books do. >> and from your mother who was very religious you get that nice mix and that tension that exists between religion and math and science. >> exactly. my mom was -- i grew up in a very religious household. i went to church, sang in a choir, she was the choir director. on the same side my dad was on the math side. i had no problem with thanh till i lirned about the big bane cosmology and i had to say, wait, the bible says there's adam and eve and god created and there's the thing with the big bang and evolution and i asked the priest you know which

story is true and this priest responded by saying nice boys don't ask that question. >> really. >> for me that was the moment when i look back on my childhood and said that was the moment when i realize thad this battle between science and religion was a fertile ground and i think i wrote these books just as an ongoing attempt to figure it out all out. >> is there someone that you know that's like robert langden? >> he's a conglomerate of a lot of different people. my favorite people, people i admired most as a child were my teachers. i had fantastic teachers my father included and my mother was an amazing teacher in her own way. so who's more heroic than a teacher. just the segment you did on code. just amazing. >> in "inferno" which is now in paperback. it's now on the big screen. as i read it i see tom hanks so clearly. you talk about jeannettegenetics

this is an old controversy, this idea that there is a gospel maybe of mary mag dell lynn that maybe mary and gee does had a romantic relationship. this is an old theory. what's funny is these are proposed by academics, and what the da vinci code did is pull it into the mainstream. people reacted ads though it was new, but it wasn't. it was mainstream and this is something that recurse auchbd and it just recurred in the news a couple of weeks ago. >> >> in the da vinci code did i see you and charlie rose together? >> if ron howard invites you to paris or london to be in a movie, grow. >> you have go. i got the cut. he said dan, i'm sorry, i had to make the same call to my dad, so don't feel bad. you're cut. you and charlie, don't quit your day jobs. >> we had fun. >> try harder next edition of

african-american experience beyond what you may see in other museums. >> we're like detectives often. we contact them. but also with this museum people have come to us and said wow, finally i know the place where this belongs. >> they tell a story of tragedy and resilience. some of the most simplest are the most poignant like these charred copper pennies, all that remains of the home destroyed in the 1921 tulsa race riots considered the most violent in u.s. history md and there are spectacular triumphs of cold from track & field star carl lewis, eight of 11 medal sthoos that was around his neck on the medal stand. >> when you talk about the moment, you can see it on the artifact and photograph and films as well. >> it will all kuo on display here at a new facility.

>> one of the things that worried me from the very beginning is could we find the artifacts that would move people. >> but that hasn't been a problem. more than 30,000 artifacts have rolled in. quite literally with the largest. it was wrapped in plastic, moved from kentucky and moved to the museum. visitors will be able to walk through the car, see the separate seating for whites and blacks, something today's generation ma find hard to imagine. that is why people say this music is so important, keep it alive for future generations with for people who cannot imagine the sacrifices people made to pave the way for really the great country that we have today. norah? >>y, jan. thank you. so important. >> well said. i receive some of the art facts. it's the most amazing thing.

turns its eye to the u.s. men's soccer team. it tees most widely viewed sporting event on the planet. that begins next month in brazil. the u.s. men haven't made it past the quarterfinals in more than 80 years. cbs correspondent sharn alfonsi shows us how the coach has bill it from the top down. >> he was a legendary soccer player in europe. now he's putting his mark on the u.s. men's national team. right away he shook things up stripping players' names from their jerseys, saying they had to earn them back even openly criticized his star players and the way they play soccer in general. the u.s. soccer team is stacked with stars like seattle sown ders clint dempsey and top players like josie altador and goalie tim howard. but the hope for the united states in the world cup may rest even more on their german coach

jurgen klinsmann. >> it's got to shake you up. >> yes the awarding and trophies he's won. >> he's an intense 49-year-old who may know the american public bet theiren they know him. >> the americans want the olympics super bowl and all that stuff. the world cup is something similar to that so eventually we want to make this game grow. we want to make this game not competing. we want to make them understand this is beyond america. this game is the only game that connects everybody globally. >> klinsmann knows a thing or two about the world cup. he won it as player and came in third when he coached germany's

national team. but he's been publicly critical of his own u.s. team and soccer in general. he said american players lack the confidence and aggressiveness they need to compete at the highest level. >> when he says that you know u.s. players need to play nastier, what does he mean? >> i think he's right. when you look around the rest of the world, there are team who will stamp their authority on it. they'll be in your face and kick you. other teams in a clever way will dive and roll around and get the referee on their side. i think as americans, we're just very honest. you know when it comes to soccer we'll kick someone up and help them up or we'll get kicked and our legs are falling off but we jump up to be tough. there are little moments we could probably be clever. >> klinsmaklinsmamm is not only tries to change but change the way soccer is played at every level in america. could the goal-driven german be

the one to finally pull it off? >> it may not seven the americans well as they enter the world cup. they'll face some of of their toughest opponents in the first round so bad it's being called the group of death. klinsmann is exceedingly optimistic but he's a real list. what he's hoping to do is win the country so everybody gets behind soccer. >> it's got to bo a little humbling to see if they make it. >> absolutely. that's part of his plan. >> you're not going to put me on the sport. maybe portugal brazil. not the u.s. >> sharon thank you. >> sure. >> you can see sharon's full report tonight on "60 minutes
