the senator says he's been pressuring novo nordisk for months. you have these conversations with them. you saying, look, i'd like you to lower the drug price by 50% or 40% or 20%? >> i'd like them to not charge us any more than they are charging on average people in other countries. >> reporter: and their response to that is -- >> it's complicated. you have a very complicated health care system in america. we're working on it. >> reporter: the company told us that 99% of commercial health care plans in the u.s. cover ozempic, and about half the plans cover wegovy, and that 80% of u.s. patients with insurance pay $25 or less per month for the prescriptions. but some employers have stopped covering the drug because of the high cost combined with high demand. in april, north carolina stopped covering weight loss drugs, including wegovy for state employees like traline williams. >> once they terminate it, the

coverage, it was just like a train hit me. >> reporter: williams works in i.t. for state agency. morbidly obese in 2009, she had bariatric surgery, but later found her weight creeping back up. so in 2021, she started wegovy, paid for by the state's health insurance plan. now with coverage dropped, she can't afford the over $1300 a month price tag. >> that's like a mortgage payment. i simply cannot afford. >> reporter: a yale study published in jama earlier this year found the drugs could likely be manufactured for prices far below current price. how much? one of its authors told senator week -- at a meeting last - >> it can possibly be manufactured for just under $5 per month. >> reporter: university of minnesota professor studies pharmaceutical markets. >> you can make this drug for the cost of a cup of coffee, and it's selling for a thousand dollars. so something's broken in the market where that doesn't seem to be priced fairly and where

the u.s. is paying a price that's 5 to 10 times what it costs in europe. >> reporter: novo nordisk's response, "we appreciate that it's frustrating that each country has its own health care system, but making isolated and limited comparisons ignores this fundamental fact. but for williams -- >> i feel disappointed. i feel like simply because we're the usa, they feel like they can charge us more. and that's just simply unfair. >> in response to senator sanders' comment about novo nordisk being greedy, the company told us it's proud of the work its scientists have done to advance innovation and improve people's lives. it also said that even when it lowers its prices, too often patients in the united states don't get the savings. it says insurers and pharmacy benefit managers among others play a role in pricing too, and they make money in the system as well. >> that was anna werner reporting. and at that hearing, senator

sanders said he received commitments from all the major benefit managers to expand coverage of those weight loss drugs if novo nordisk lowers the list price. meanwhile, the cost of the weight loss drugs has some people turning to copycat alternatives. nancy chen has more. ♪ oh, oh, oh ozempic ♪ >> reporter: with wegovy -- >> i'm losing weight. >> reporter: they've become household names, commonly known as glp-1 drugs, the weight loss medications ozempic and wegovy treat illnesses like diabetes and obesity. they do it by regulating insulin and reducing appetite. but there is not enough, according to the fda. demand has been so high that the administration added medicines with these appetite-suppressing ingredients to its shortage list this year. that means other companies often specialized pharmacies can make compounded drugs, essentially copycat versions with the same active ingredient. >> come on, girls. come to mommy.

>> reporter: it's become a lifeline for many, including jean ready, a 65-year-old retired teacher who has struggled with her weight for most of her life. how much were you thinking about your weight? >> all the time. that just gave me -- my son got married last october, and i was at the highest weight i'd ever been when he got married, and i hate that. i was embarrassed for him and i was embarrassed for myself. >> reporter: after doing some research, she decided to try a brand name drug called zepbound. but it wasn't covered by her insurance. did it go from i think this could be something i'm interested in to i got to get this? >> oh, pretty fast. the conversation had to, though, happen with my husband. i'm like it's $1200. i tried probably to say it as low as i could. >> reporter: but in order to reach her weight loss goals, ready would have to keep taking

the drug, which was hard to find and expensive, leading her to seek other options online. while zepbound, the name brand drug cost her $1200 a month, a compounded drug was $400. cbs news confirmed found more than 100 websites advertising access to semaglutide and tirzepatide. the active ingredients in these drugs. nearly a quarter of the sites did not disclose the drugs were compounded, and some falsely claimed fda approval. a few even allowed purchases without a prescription which is required. for guidance, ready turned to online forums where she found this long list of providers. >> it will tell you about the dosage, and that would be your monthly cost with this company. >> reporter: and there is plenty to sort through. telehealth companies applying for certification with legit script, a third party organization that reviews online companies is up 94% compared to last year. compounded drugs are meant to be a short-term solution, says cbs

news medical contributor dr. celine gounder. >> there might be a shortage of a medication, which is what we're dealing with right now with many of these weight loss drugs. and so there is a gap there that they are trying to fill. >> reporter: how much oversight is there really over these compounded drugs? >> there is not a tremendous amount of oversight. and researchers have actually tried to test this themselves, and there is a wide range in terms of the quality and the risks associated based on that testing. >> reporter: an fda spokesperson told cbs news it is working closely with drugmakers and may restrict the manufacturing of compounded drugs in the future as more versions of weight loss drugs come off the administration's shortage list and come down in price. last month, eli lilly announced it would make its drug zepbound more accessible by reducing the lowest dose to less than $400 a month. that's about what ready pace for her compounded drug now, and she

says she is sticking with it after losing more than 50 pounds. what is the feeling that you have now? >> it just feels like a relief. i think it's a miracle drug. i really do. >> that was nancy chen reporting. stay with us.

a new poll found nearly two-thirds of voters think should it be. as david schechter reports from georgia, some elected officials may not be listening. >> reporter: this may look to you and me like a corrugated rooftop on a georgia gas station. >> pull it up about six inches. >> reporter: but to solar installer clay copeland, it looks like a profit. >> i got into solar because it's an excellent business model. the environment wins. the economy wins. >> reporter: copeland's is one of many green businesses flourishing in politically red south georgia, where the country's largest electric vehicle factory is under construction. and other investments are being driven by the inflationary reduction act. the ira passed by the biden administration is infusing $370 billion to support the renewable energy transition. copeland says ira incentives will support 90% of this future solar project. when you vote, will you be tlig

thinking about climate? >> absolutely. >> reporter: clay's work led to a shift how he thinks about climate change, and he is not alone. 70% of americans say global warming will hurt future generations, and 62% say congress should do more about the problem. >> i want chocolate chip. a single scoop on a waffle cone. >> reporter: we got a taste of the district with republican congressman buddy carter. >> hit the jackpot here. >> i'm telling you, it's great. >> reporter: across the country, two-thirds of all ira projects are going to gop-held congressional districts. carter's district is gaining 4500 new green jobs, plus $3.5 billion in new investments like ev battery and component factories. in congress, carter, who is running for reelection in november, voted against the ira. he says he opposed the bill because of a nonclimate element that lowers the cost of some prescription drugs, but he says stifles innovation. is there a contradiction in benefits from the ira, but then also saying i'm not going to

vote for this thing? >> why did leadership put all that together? why didn't they let us vote on it simply? it probably would have gotten some republican votes. >> reporter: you think so? >> i'm sure it would have. >> reporter: would you have voted for it. >> you know, i didn't look at it. that was so egregious to me, the prescription drug portion, that that's all it took. >> reporter: carter helps lead a group of more than 80 republicans who acknowledge the climate is changing but fight against what they call radical climate proposals that would hurt the economy, like the ira. and when it comes to why the climate is changing, the clear-cut science says it's the emissions from our cars, factories and power plants. but carter isn't so sure. >> if it's not carbon dioxide that we're releasing that's changing the climate, what is it? >> i'm not a scientist in that realm. so i don't -- i don't know what it could be, but i suspect that it could be just natural phenomenons. >> reporter: in congressman

carter's district, 53% of people worry about climate change. it's a place where they're exposed to the threats of sea level rise and extreme storms like hurricane debby that folks are still cleaning up from. but carter votes against environmental issues 96% of the time. if the ira was up for a vote today, what should your elected officials do? >> they should pass it. >> reporter: millions of voters like clay copeland are speaking, but are their elected officials listening? for eye on america, davi

rising global temperatures are easy to see at the north and south poles, where glaciers are melting and ice sheets are sliding into the sea. but it's also a problem in the major cities of the world, and one company in england is now trying to address that problem. leah mishkin has more. >> reporter: searching for air in a hot city can seem like an impossible tassble task as the sun beams from buildings and radiates from cars going by. >> especially in those cities which are affected the most by global warming. >> reporter: the german-based company office for microclimate cultivation is a looking to provide urban dwellers some shade with their vertical designs. this structure in london was a collaborative effort. >> we seemed up with experts from different kinds of fields

like science, architecture, design. >> reporter: it not only cools down passersby, but also provides a habitat for insects. >> our main goal is to offer a solution with which we can bring back nature into cities really quickly and easily. >> reporter: the company co-founder says planning in cities is challenging because of space, time, and maintenance. trees typically take 20 years to grow, and their roots require a large surface. but these annual climbing plants grow about three feet per week, reaching up to 32 feet tall. they don't require a foundation in the ground. so the setup takes just about a week. and though the plants only last a season, they're harvested in the fall and recycled. then replaced with new plants in the spring. >> depending on the local infrastructure, we can, for example, turn them into a compost, energy, or even bio. >> reporter: while it's not their main purpose, the plants also help remove carbon dioxide from the air. leah mishkin, cbs news, london.

storm like this doesn't help much because the land back in that direction is just flat. so when a storm this big, counties here are not even opening shelters. that's to encourage people to get further away from the water and out of the storm's path. jason allen, cbs news, florida. fears of an all-out war are now growing in the middle east as israel and hezbollah continue exchanging air strikes and rocket fire across the lebanon border. cbs' chris livesay is in northern israel, but first, we begin with cbs' imtiaz tyab in beirut. >> reporter: beirut's southern suburbs targeted yet again in an israeli air strike. at least six were killed in the apparent assassination of another top hezbollah commander. as tens of thousands of civilians flee, israel's devastating bombardment of southern lebanon. since monday, at least 558 people, including 50 children

need to actually put back in law the protections for reproductive freedom and for the ability of every person and every woman to make decisions about their own body and not have their government tell them what to do. >> reporter: that would also require democrats hanging on to a senate majority in the upcoming election. skyler henry, cbs news, the white house. >> and cbs news will host the only vice presidential debate between senator j.d. vance and governor tim walz on tuesday, october 1st, right here in new york. you can watch our coverage live of that debate moderated by norah o'donnell and margaret brennan on cbs and streaming on cbs news 24/7 and paramount plus. the state of missouri has executed convicted murderer marcellus williams after the supreme court declined a last-minute request for a delay. williams was found guilty of a 1998 murder in suburban st. louis. the execution went ahead, despite prosecutors attempting
