welcome back you're with r.t. coming to live from osco here is a reminder of the top stories just thirty people have been injured in a terror attack in southern russia a car bomb exploded near a cafe in the bustling center of the town of. facing up to the global drugs read the russian president meets the leaders of afghanistan to stand in pakistan to thrash out ways of tackling opium trafficking experts say a regional approach is vital to combat the dealing of air wind which kills tens of thousands of people each year. and a growing number of u.s. nationals are choosing to renounce their citizenship last year alone an estimated seven million. american dream three times as many as the year before. so we

had lines down the weather's extreme conditions have been the summer's hottest topic with heat raging in russia and floods devastated pakistan people are lost as to what's causing these catastrophes are to talk to the provenance russian physicist alexander ginsburg who says the only force to blame is mother nature herself. recent climatic chaos has caused many conspiracy theories to wonder what could possibly be behind the climatic events that are causing worldwide attention to talk a little bit more about whether there is any truth to the serious and what is really causing our planet to behave in such a way i'm now joined by dr alexandre ginsburg who will be talking to r.t. about those problems stop going to thank you so much for talking to us now these

conspiracy theories that have recently flooded the internet about how there's a geophysical weapon that somebody is testing that is causing all of these problems they are icelandic volcano the floods in pakistan the heat in russia is that true. so it's an interesting question that comes up at least every few years five years ago when hurricane katrina struck the u.s. sure there was a lot of noise perhaps more of it in the western hemisphere than in europe in russia but people started saying that katrina was the result of russian jew physical weapon tests and that nothing would have happened if it wasn't for the evil empire which meant to the former soviet union and wouldn't be russia this year since europe russia pakistan and china to a degree all been affected by disasters this incision hungry whistleblowers came up with a different theory and they are saying these disasters are results of retaliation

from the u.s. that perhaps the u.s. wanted to strike pakistan and accidently hit russia and europe. in any case my answer to your question is no it was not caused by geophysical weapons i say this because so far there is no evidence in open media sources or licensed scientific magazines that mankind is capable of using nature in such a way the amount of energy we. able to exact is far too small to affect energy streams in the atmosphere and the oceans are so as to use those streams as a weapon and i have no scientific evidence that the disasters could have been caused by a climate weapon or a geophysical weapon. but it is true that countries are working towards somehow controlling or affecting the weather isn't that what scientists of many cultures have always been interested in the. yes we do work on projects of that kind ways to use where the control techniques can be different there are peaceful

applications such as dispersing clouds and making sure that weather is good at red square parades i suspect this isn't only practiced in russia but in other countries as well. servia to authorities used where the control techniques and quite successfully to cause avalanches and hail storms and places where they needed them or drive away from airports it's easy to see from what i said that all weather control technology is aimed at controlling clouds and fog the liquids in the atmosphere. the latest trend in weather control is to use finely divided cement loads of cement cause rain when dumped into clouds and can be used to settle for. the physics at the core of those two purses at the same cement causes the water particles in the clouds and fog to become bigger. now for better or for worse we have no means of affecting weather other than enlarging water particles in folks and clouds and turning ice particles into water to turn hale into rain these

methods were introduced almost one hundred years ago and we have not made any breakthroughs since although what we do have we use successfully. so then what is causing all this climatic chaos the volcano in iceland the abnormal heat in russia floods in pakistan what is the cause behind all of these things that. did this summer disasters in russia europe and pakistan come from well they didn't really come from anywhere situations like this develop in the atmosphere once every few years we call them blocking situations like they are characterized by a cycle and the cycle and pair of equal strength facing one another and the cyclon is a massive air spinning one way and producing the standing streams of air. in summer and winter this gives a clear sky it also makes the summers hotter now when we have a pack insisting of

a strong cycle and a strong anti cycling as the case is this summer over russia and europe this leads to a so-called blocking situation during which that pair can become very stable this pair will sustain itself until it gets tired and we'd have to either wait for that well for autumn to come so that the stronger and the second would run out of the solar energy it is sustained by. my point is that there is nothing extraordinary about what we are seeing this summer from the meteorological point of view the only thing that is out of the ordinary is how strong the anti cycling in the cycling are. what's important to understand is that cycling's are not actually created by anything it is the cycling itself that is the reason for a change in atmosphere a person sees the cycling as the reason not a consequence of the consequences of the science learn i want we are dealing with now. so to the people who would say that. those

conditions are a result of global warming would you say that they are mistaken or that they are correct in their new little girl neither this nor that and there is solid ground. for that sidelines in europe and the cyclons in russia are not direct consequences of global warming it's a regular phenomenon. but as i mentioned before the situation is lasting to learn as for global warming people are arguing now whether it is natural or manmade it exists out of natural global warming is pretty much the same across the globe it should be getting warmer everywhere and more or less equally or at least proportionally but if global warming is due to the greenhouse effect warming at low or tropical latitudes is much less than warming at high or polar latitudes depending on hemisphere in the north or in the south. if the temperature difference decreases the force which could get cyclons and anti cyclons apart and eliminate

the blocking decreases as well so in this respectable i cannot insist that it's a direct consequence of global manmade warming but as we see it the resolution of such booking situations becomes more and more complicated than that they mentioned the so-called greenhouse gas emissions do you think that the kyoto protocol actually helps with curbing greenhouse gas emissions and should everybody sign it like countries that have so far refused to sign it for example do they need to or does it actually help i've asked and we've gotten dealings but all day as we are doing something to nature which nature itself has not been doing before we have to fight it therefore all the efforts to cut greenhouse emissions to fight there's a temptation to grow forests eliminating greenhouse effect and so on very much welcome. on the other hand sometimes excessively enthusiastic green activists and

other ecologists shout from the rooftops that nuclear energy must not be used as well as solar energy and wind energy because in for sound effect and fossil fuels are simply out of the question. but they also going to convince his dr to conferences and sit in their offices not in villages and they fight against coolies fact is there was a summit in copenhagen that didn't produce any particular results i was asked a good question about it once they told me it came to naught to which i replied that it actually produce great results what results they ask me the heads of one hundred twenty countries came together to see that they couldn't do anything this is a great result some of them started thinking about it differently they were in there to sign documents and reach agreements but they couldn't. they certainly haven't agreed on anything what this showed us is that we need to step up our efforts it showed us that climate problems should be discussed at summits copenhagen was the first port into not cents you mentioned cup and. the fact that leaders

of countries need to. solve the matters themselves but there have been people that have said that it would be economically. not beneficial for them for example some say that already an alternative fuel source has been developed by scientists but it's economically unfeasible for countries that are dependent on oil like the united states like the arab emirates like russia so do you think there is any fact to to these statements or is that all theories and talk. unfortunately what you are saying is exactly the case advances have been made in renewable energy technologies but there are also difficulties for example big fields of energy windmills produce an infra sound that is not heard by human beings but sometimes small rodents and other animals leave these places so sometimes we

are simply unaware of the possible effects of alternative energy production. in addition it's a very slight effect but there are two ways to warm up the earth to increase the greenhouse effect or to consume more solar energy currently an increase in the greenhouse effect is predominant but if the entire earth is covered with solar batteries then more solar energy will be consumed and there will still be warming although slight. what will happen in china is very interesting because china is a special case it doesn't have much oil but huge coal reserves but now coal energy is too shameful to use especially for a country with ambitions to become the leading world economy. therefore they are likely to actively pursue alternative sources of energy solution but that is where global warming. it's been said so many times it's been blamed for all kinds of different things and then recently there were some russian hackers who broke

into email correspondence between some european scientists that actually said that there is no global warming so is there or isn't there doing this that i would put off one of the world centers of meteorology in climate science is in great britain it's the most ancient greek meteorology service that's one thing another thing is that over the past five or ten years or maybe more of the country which has been most concerned by global warming is great britain in the summer of two thousand and four i was present at and one of the organizers of a meeting between tony blair's counselor david king and under a larry one of two distinguished councillors of two distinguished leaders one of them was arguing that there was no global warming while the other was saying it exists and that it is man made all this is political climatology both points of

view there is global warming because temperatures have risen over the past one hundred fifty years of observations and over the past decade they have been increasing quicker than during the first one hundred years of observations it is a fact we cannot deny that it's. extracting black. dangerous. worldwide demand pushes the limits to catastrophe. is the price. is it possible to prevent such disasters. and can the aftermath be dealt with quickly i am different. to flee. the oil

spills and thrills she. said to join the military because i thought that it was my duty to do it was something that i do to help my country i believe my government that is necessary for america you know there was a lot of drug abuse the lot of the murder of american officers soldiers there were a lot of. these were outed by. these little i always thought i wanted to win a lot of medals only to have a lot of decorations but afterwards i realize that they don't mean anything. that importance. i don't i don't i never kept the medal.

up to thirty people have been injured in a terror attack in southern russia a car bomb exploded near a cafe in the bustling center of the town's because you force. facing up to the global drug threat the russian president meets the leaders of afghanistan to take a stand in pakistan to thrash out ways of tackling opium trafficking experts say a regional approach is vital to combat the dealing about get heroin which kills tens of thousands of people each year. a growing number of u.s. nationals are choosing to renounce their citizenship last year alone an estimated seven million people gave up the american dream three times as many as a year before. they had winds all back to tell the hour meantime here's a sports update with natalia.

welcome to the sport news an hour to you thanks for watching and here is our headlines. the french football federation the baron's world cup school members were on the car receiving the have the astonishment. while both manchester clubs unveiled their latest signings with a new season already on the way. and going into a sea of moves on up to six seasons with yamaha to join his native ducati stables. but of course we kick off with champions league football was in need are on their way to the main stage of the competition following a one mil win over all said in the first leg of their cool if i am bit is that side of the top the standings domestically alfred forming the frenchman at their home petrovsky stadium on tuesday night i've examined a kid shark off scoring the open a just a couple of minutes into the match and the two remains of one meal till the end of regulation the second leg will be played on august twenty fifth. manchester united

meanwhile have kicked off their english premier league season with a when they are easing to a three nil victory over nearly relegated newcastle dim at the part of settled in the thirty three minutes that was followed up by another close range our first this time from their own flat brian biggs then sealed the deal five minutes from time the welshman now playing in his nineteenth season i told trafford falling home in some style so united's move till fall for the opening we can't alongside champions chelsea blackpool aston villa and wolves. now of course united plan to stay on top by the end of the season as well and they introduced three new players to help them do that defendant chris smalling an england twenty one international and portuguese forward to. score a who is better known by the nickname back. both just twenty third member of the trio made his home debut on monday as a substitute for rooney twenty two year old mexican international javier heir non

this. i was telling these phrases those who need may contain what i am living. the dream the life i was like ten years old and i always look you know. these players like skulls i just want to be like like them no and i mean i'm here and i want all the enjoy it i love this thing the support to anybody i want to talk to world like like a human like a player and the most important thing i want to win championships with. meanwhile united's rivals manchester city on veiled another new signing motto about their life from milan but it's going to strike a signed a five year contract at the city of manchester stadium despite previously stating his desire to remain in made silly he sounds that reuniting with coach are better than mine cheney was a big factor in his decision to go or for the year was very important he was probably wouldn't have come here. as

a player and this is the time to reply. to. him. as a player for the future. just be there in. the best player in the world. now is the greatest show on earth and it could be coming to russia in a that's when to eighteen not twenty twenty two that's the hope of the country's top football officials after a three four world cup delegation began a tour of the nation's prospect of host cities this week six inspectors going sightseeing in st petersburg before heading south to moscow to inspect the illusion of the stadium they will then make their way took a sign as well as they two thousand and fourteen winter olympic base sochi. a total of thirteen russian cities are aspiring to take part the big decision will be announced by face on december the second england australia the united states and

join bands from spain and portugal and belgium as the netherlands all the competition. but you'll both meet storm way in which you were very eager to invite the two thousand and eighteen world cup to russia and we're confident. we will do our best to provide the inspection commission with as much information as possible regarding our bid so they can gauge the readiness of our potential host cities and stay with the scandal which engulfed the french national team by the world cup in south africa to finally have come to closure the presumed culprit solve the team's strike against them coach i want dominic facing a final battle to a disciplinary hearing held by the french football federation in paris the number one. on the spending for eighteen games for his conflict with dominic skipper up a trace of raw got five frankly very three and jeremy too along just one remember the entire team refused to train at one stage while on the call was sent home ever

all was then seen all going with the fitness coach as the side began to implode new manager long had already suspended the entire school prior to friendly with no wait last week. but it seems to me that the players are sincerely sorry for what happened i understand that they were affected by these events though i can't speak for them but i think everyone has to realise there was a slip in standards but now we should also be able to move forward. meanwhile in motor sports an exciting twenty eleven moto g.p. season lies ahead for team ducati after six time world champion going into the us and else he will be moving to the italian stable. to an influx of world all right as. so from next the end i really varies from country for the next to be. great that i may have. a very cool and. i think would be very interesting. which is about the situation from

a from two thousand and four now with. maybe the best of all to be have that everybody. looks like they don't need me anymore. to rugby union the way new zealand said just a point away from securing the f.a. of the tri nations title and sixty as abby all blacks can make that happen on saturday against south africa both teams have been training in johannesburg ahead of the big clash new zealand are coming off a thrashing game winning streak including their latest target and victory over australia while the springboks in contrast have suffered a three straight losses and cannot successfully defend their title with only two games to go home saturday's match however will see an one thousand nine thousand mainly south african crowd ruler of the hosts as they move to regain a sound oneself pride we want to. play play we have done. in the spring books. but we want to go before we want to want to switch over

here. that's what motivates us this week. or the try to fix up the sleeves and go to use the right tone but. that's. just for the sake of it. is we'll go we're going to wear it. at this moment. because of the guys we know the. now let's finish by taking a look at the pick of the strikes which were abandoned over the weekend in the russian football premier league and by the end of the mall it's still pretty with a comfortable lead at the top.

now you're up to date for the moment next to check on the wild weather stay with us . the. question is that so much i can tell if i do the lottery was that i think that they know nothing less than us and after forty years the so-called war on drugs has achieved preciously little nonetheless governments around the world.

the close up team has been to the kaluga missions where the car industry is rapidly developing. mount argy goes to the area where the first russian fleet was born. where the indigenous people were the first hard to see as navigator and where russia's glorious history is still visible. welcome.
