markets. find out what's really happening to the global economy with my charger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to courage report on our. welcome back here with r.t. here's a look at the top stories pressing the president dmitry medvedev is due to face grilling from over eight hundred journalists in his the largest news conference since taking office three years ago he's chosen the high tech innovation hub near moscow as a venue for the big event. revolution and religion the downfall of egypt's presidency is dictatorship replaced with phase based violence muslim and christian leaders have called for an answer violence that has claimed lives at some churches her.

financial crisis hit americans are having to turns and moving defense companies for work the industry is one of the fuse still flush with cash thanks to the wars being fought by the u.s. abroad. so i have lines now our team talks to one of the opposition voices against the theory of global warming. today i'm talking to johnny ball he's most famous for being a children's television presenter in the seventy's and eighty's and is also a climate change skeptic so he will thank you so much for talking c.r.t. now you are famous of boiling things down there so i wonder if we could just start with you explaining the current accepted theory behind climate science and where you think climate scientists are going wrong well it all started in the very beginning and it alarmed me because it didn't seem to tie in with what i already understood about what the way the west life on earth works wife on earth is based

on three. three items that's oxygen water and c o two and the three intermix when you burn and the thing you're producing you're burning hydrocarbons and you can have c o two and water but you can't burn anything without the oxygen and there so if you demonize one you'd have to demonize the other every time you produce some other clear c o two you produce two molecules of water so if you're going to demonize c o two you better believe in ice water as well then i looked at what they were talking about and they were saying it was c o two analyse it was manmade c o two in the atmosphere well the sea you see you to never see only there's only about one particle in every two thousand five hundred. but all of the man makes it that's only about four percent of the mo and you can say we produce two percent of that at the most and so you know talking about miniscule amounts of

c o two now to see will see you to then has a very major function and matter has to fit all plants. trees grow to an optimum height because of the warmth of the c o two at the height it gets through and it thins out when you go skiing you find that there are trees perhaps not and they get cracking i'm really proud i am in there and they look sick the truth the matter is up there they're the existing only less c o two and they learnt to do that and survive and lichen may be covered by snow for all bar a month but as soon as it's uncovered it grabs the c o two and minimal though it is but that's enough to sustain it like through the year and this is the way it works with c o two clubhead you know when you get a tropical climates the trees can be hardly a jungle and countries are much worse because there's more c o two so this kind of

aspect of this show that c o two is the natural exchange between plants and animals and it's absolutely natural you're essentially saying two things one that theory two is essential for life order and to that mankind isn't responsible for creating separate them out the theater in. plants on land rotting in fermenting including leafleting produce about three hundred fifty billion terms of c o two a year a man and his industry produces at most twenty four billion pounds. if america fourteen so nature would even fourteen times of them but of all plants on earth only twenty percent around. eighty percent of all plants on earth are in the oceans in the sea all with the sent me i was in a nice new intake so you think that they produce the. calcium carbonate your claims

are made from so you can without the see of his wouldn't they just wouldn't. michel's of of of crabs and things require so you too much of one so you see there's total exchange an exchange can be upset it can be upset put to a degree but to me it's so minimal but the whole for all is crazy so how is it that you think climate scientists have got it so wrong i think there was a law that says we've got to stop the world progress. we've got to stop technology wrestling we've got to stop capitalism like we somehow got a hold everything back and that's the idea when you talk to the green you find that they usually want technologies that are less efficient but they're all should we have one of the less efficient would be a greater weight on the world or a natural that we're looking for greater efficiency one example gas fired

electrical power stations in the last it eighteen years have doubled their efficiency to fit in the scheme back again to make it workable and using rare earth magnets much more powerful so that means the gas fired power station we think twice as much energy from the same fossil fuel as we got eighteen years ago now that is a tremendous success story grange don't want to. why and you have to wonder why. isn't it better that they should do something in response to this perceived threat from security rather than just leaving it as it is i mean surely any kind of research and development is progressive absolutely so you got to back the the right wants rap gasoline in britain cost about. electricity from just two point three. million it from nuclear two point five percent from colton point eight or nine pick from wind nine point eight pence is crazy and not knowing when generation would be

built without subsidy now that's frightening because that's costing us a fortune for something as substandard and when we built all the walls we built and are planning to nuclear generators or one new nuclear generator when you get a generator well dismiss them all. and nuclear is carbon free it doesn't produce you so why would anyone want to do for you. doesn't make sense it doesn't add up it's a political motivation it's nothing to do with efficiency now in america they just like to think for us with the senate voted sixty four to have nothing to do with the un's international panel on climate change not the funding not a bucket and not i mean interesting reports i think it's wonderful something else they said they agree they're producing grain to produce ethanol has been

a total and unmitigated disaster in the united states and has actually. cost a tremendous amount and even increased their carbon footprint but more than that the reduction in their food product their grain for food has meant a doubling of wheat prices another crisis. that is a threat to the very countries how many man would require aid in kind from the usa and those countries ninety percent of the population at least are working class or poorer than a name a few tunisia libya egypt amman jordan and what's happening now the question is is the squeeze on britain. because of the levins fifty percent of our energy bills on substance for women fifty percent of their failures on subsidies from reduce carbon sixty six percent of the

tracks these all of of our of the cost of our petrol and these. people are squeezing working people and every child this is the point which is why i am taking her propre because i'm interested in kids on the welfare of catch every child in great britain and poor of i linguistically because of us putting know that money in it to fight us area is ridiculous errors that don't ever prove their worth the candle and you in fact it was the jets to the way that climate science is taught in schools so it's not just not just financially detrimental to children but also psychologically do you think what should we tell our kids about the future. tilton sex let's tell our kids the grown ups of messed the world up so much frankly we want you to cure it while you're seven eight nine ten eleven twelve thirteen korea but you stole my lights off switch the lights off save energy do it doing what he

can see how much anything that's preposterous is preposterous when matthew bolton was selling steam engines one minute and said oh i've got a hundred men down there but shovels i'm out here and he said are you got a thousand men dimensions of this is the wrong way round he said take on the steam engine you'll double your profits govern your output. we need children. to be too warm to become scientists technologists as you need it for my mental side just by all means. and you know we won't go to improve the world we want to pick the partner up i'm going to look to my life seven decades every ten years you can see the mark improvements and not the problems heart transplant somewhere in the middle of all kinds of things really brilliant improvements the clean air act and i think just now all buildings if you build a stone building it stays the same color it didn't used to be to be black within a year itch or all those things the catalytic converter which produces. noxious

nitrogen oxygen and said enough is outside and he stirred it under carbons same event gardens and carbon monoxide to produce a comet dioxide white because it's harmless and it's been great and wonderful and clean up which cleaner than i ever been in and that story and all those things are wonderful and we the telecoms do you see we've actually not done a bad job but with the technology with the communications technology and the computer as well and so much better so you have faith you make good better by picking up the what is genius. and taking it one step further that's just how it's climate science become so politicized to think well it is. and it's nothing else but politicized it is definitely not based on science and see they say it's the consensus where eugenics was by consensus a lynch mob consensus it was accepted by consensus you know it consensus not

really you need as somebody said lovely a quotation from burke the scoundrel will always succeed if good men say nothing well thank god i'm very flattered that he considered me a good man but something he said you know that i understood is absolutely right i've got to stand up and i've got a son it doesn't work in the cage but thirty forty years i believe in them i believe in the next generation i believe. good about what we do to them they're going to have to care about and they going to be the next generation with all the jobs so surely if we can get their minds into gear i can help get their minds into the right or thinking about science and technology then it's all worthwhile kind of oh thank you i'll play. now.

it didn't start all of a sudden. it's a long story of destroying the living under how much option. there are constantly or something leaks out here when they get done like that it's just there if you took every fisherman out of the water and you don't do something about that water. protecting the habitat the fisheries it's going to collapse nature's steps by making way for the talks of guster to see look around museum and see the solar system obviously everybody here must be well off incomes must be high road systems great number that's true. and yet billions of dollars oil and gas state. real baby drill.

one needs from there to cost him some money my blood pressure will consider potential areas for development in south atlantic and the gulf of mexico. and. repairing broken things. highway construction and humanitarian aid. buses shady officials forget the spoils of war it's the people who pay the price. profiteering here is no longer just drug trafficking. in indonesia oh geez available in the ground you have the tune of shirts and media hutto the rich culture the term illegal which the film of the millennium hotel in

true enough you can seal it since original mccomb groups are told the current drone to be both her children have been issued marco results will be sold at the sochi olympics new mccullum location of the results much will never be closer to home a true libya of which only come since her hotel mckown. pressing the president between the head of his due to face grilling from over eight hundred journalists in his largest news conference in staking office three years ago is chosen the high tech innovation have near moscow as a venue for the big event. revolution and religion the downfall of egypt's presidencies dictatorship replaced was a space based file its muslim and christian lyrics of call for man's to violence that has claimed lives and seen churches burned. financial crisis hit americans are having to turn to booming defense companies for war industries one of the few

is still flush with cash thanks to the warrants being sought by the us abroad. and time now for sports of aid with honor joins us now in the studio where the news over the next hosts a marine you know well as a marine in iraq or. i think marina was going to say james marino is being compared to syria. he was the manager of ports so he could become the youngest manager ever to win a european trade for the seeding i've got more details in a moment. hello there thanks for watching the sports these are the headlines. another merino porter goss vs burris aims to emulate the special one is his side take on prague in the europa league final. thoughts off his hit plans to see roy jones jr

prepare for his clash with denis led to death in moscow. and we discover how an army of volunteers has been chosen for the sorts of winter games in twenty. first he's been likened to a marine yeah i'm poor manager and reveres both hopes to emulate him further tonight when his side take on braga in euro probably final are the thirty three year old has already stated the club to a domestic title this season and now hopes to repeat renia you a cup triumph eight years ago when he was his assistant although a clear favorite for tonight's game in dublin and have a prolific strikeforce and rounded out falco and awoke and scored thirty nine times between them this season in the portuguese top flight but vs post is playing down his role in the team's success saying chivas reflect the good work being done by everybody at the club and i think there's a lot of the work of the manager and i don't see that. the work of the manager depends on the work of the structure. and the quality of the

players and we will this year through. all of this together with. the maid is able to go so far in the league with such an incredible record. and made as the will to. do his final score braga finished fourth in the portuguese league thirty eight points behind porto eighteen they haven't beaten for two years but that doesn't bother their cage dominguez the n.c.a. he believes an upset is possible although admits it will take a special performance with him in austin and people like to see a small squad beating a big team and i think this is what's happening and why many neutrals i wouldn't brag we were doing ourselves to the champions in football it's like what happens in life people might not have so many elements to call upon the still manage to be successful elsewhere russia champions any sum pay to play

a friendly match with by munich tonight after securing a new sponsorship deal with german car manufacturer volkswagen as anita already russia's richest club and although details of the latest deal hasn't been released it's believed to dwarf any other sponsorship deal in russia to encounter fine with . this encounter would by any chiefs believe will become. an event you see in the future season pittsburgh facing a number of european clubs in their pre-season as russia aligns itself with the european football calendar. they see playing the game is the best form of practice and a sparring partner such as brian munich will provide us with great training by both teams managers will be able to experiment with the lineups and trying new things such a high level of play will definitely do our club a lot of good. meanwhile former sparta midfielder alex is completed his move to brazilian side corinthians the twenty nine year old was unveiled by the club after

being selfish six million euros alex had joined spartak from brazilian side international back in two thousand and nine but it missed much of this year's pre-season because of injury and said he wanted to return to his opponent for family reasons and from previous chances of playing for his country. and in england manchester city are on the brink of an automatic champions league spot they beat stoke three nil on cheese day to push arsenal into fourth place kolosov is scoring twice the city by joleon lescott but there was one game left says he now booked point advantage over he would have to play a pretty champions league qualifier if they finished all. my boxing legend roy change jr says he's got plenty of respect for russian and he's led to their head if they're in moscow the pair had an open training session in the capital and the american who's an eight time world champion was lapping up the atmosphere at a shopping mall before a light session in the ring and even showed his rapping skills before wrapping his

hands some glove work the forty two year old was named fighter of the decade in the ninety's by the boxing writers association but even though he hasn't won a fight for two years he's confident head of the non-title cruiserweight fight on saturday as is his opponent live it is eleven years younger and has an impressive record of twenty one wins and one defeat he's trained by boxing legend cost to zero and it's very much the favorite and had a message for the fans. here in washington right now i'm inviting all of you to go in for your work john tyner over other things going for sports we're getting fewer numbers we have to be strong thanks to everyone once again we will room but. i think you. will be. a magnet for the poor almost. to basketball now and in the n.b.a. dallas had won the first game of the western conference final against oklahoma then

the bits he's scoring an incredible forty eight points and one hundred twenty one one hundred twelve win in dallas this game of the best of seven series and it couldn't have gone much better for if. it was really really looking for marshall really. i was working a lot of my shot i was through a week off for some good german lot every night and carried off some really look from our shot early and was able to get a good rhythm and you know for sure obviously when the first couple go it's better for confidence and just just talk from their story what i was. now because team battle will be contested in france and twenty eighty the country winning winning the right to host the ryder cup in seven years time after beating off favorite spain the announcement was made at the wentworth golf club in england seeing europe reclaim the cup in wales last year and the competition now moved to

mainland europe the first time since one thousand nine hundred seven that was when it's only sledging seven ballasts serious and good idea earlier this month captain is confident and emphatic when the voters however avoided an emotional decision despite calls throughout the tournament to stay on top of their legend germany portugal and the netherlands also so it's france who hopes it's. well following a disappointing time at the beijing olympics three years ago russian weightlifters seem to be on the up again the russians managing to secure nine goals at the recent european championships but with the london games drawing closer improvement remains and assess it it was an impressive showing by the home nation in cars than russia's women topping four out of seven weight categories while the men claim five summit finishes however all but one of those victories came in heavier weight categories which means there's still much work to be done plan the scales of pointed note also asian powerhouses china and south korea were of course not involved in the upcoming

world championships and poland should provide a clearer picture of how russia progress. on main role is to get on stilts ready for the olympic games in london we haven't just started our preparations the day we started them straight after the beijing games where we failed to win the gold medal but we still have work to do to catch the rights of china and hopefully we'll put in a good performance of the upcoming world championships but it's munich up with a little further away at the winter games in sochi and twenty four team but with less than a thousand days to go the search is well and truly on to find an army of volunteers to help the lympics run smoothly his events of course can. ah the one thousand days to go mark was celebrated all over the country many choosing to get their blood pumping with a festive public workout others chose to mark the spirit of the occasion by play music. but these young men and women

were discovering the spirit of the old soviet union tradition of working on a saturday the volunteers center's opening their doors so that olympic gold medalists headline insurable could believe the youngsters about the challenges that lie ahead and just like in sports the grueling and drawn out selection process will leave only the best volunteers from all over the country for russia to be a very very huge selection and that's be very not not the only easy it's going to be like least five stages just to be longer for the games for one one of the twenty five thousand volunteers with players who will be walking for the olympic games it's a jury of a plenty of hard work and skill to earn her five hundred metres gold in turin in terms of world championship accolades but what skill set does a potential olympic volunteer need to possess in order to assist in the countrywide

effort of preparing for a global tournament its english or the mainland which is not just because. we are for this part of languages it's in the interest have to speak maybe some more language very good to know russia because it's very important to say for everybody what is the russian and if somebody ask you selections will start a new bamber this year so there's still time for aspiring volunteers to brush up on those and other skills the russian olympic committee had alexandre zuckoff visit one of the capital's boarding schools a celebratory and sporting spirit definitely in the air there with mascots and athlete. all working up a good sweat zuckoff sees plenty of perspectives for the next generation and obviously has a soft spot for the enthusiastic youth willing to make a difference. it's great to see children who like participating in sports and becoming big fans of our current libyans i enjoy seeing them get excited about

volunteering and helping out our cause but i hope that this movement will eventually lead to more exposure to sports all over the country with every aspiring our families having facilities available to them the side. with numerous people showing up to support the olympic push it is clear that it's not only the athletes who are working hard to help russia put its best foot forward on the global sport and stage a bunch of gorski arche. and that is this ball finance more like. home
