us mike fitzpatrick i'm going to move to you now director of the nonproliferation program at the international institute for strategic studies. not really a massive surprise is that the snow of career is continuing with its ballistic program but just politically speaking it doesn't make donald trump the right. exactly right on both accounts come all it north korea said at the beginning of the year in kim jong un's nuclear speech that they would continue with mass production of missiles and nuclear weapons and what we have here are more than a dozen missile development and production sites i'm sure that the u.s. intelligence agencies had a pretty good idea about these sites and now the rest of us also know more about them thanks to the report put out by c.s.i.s. today and you know donald trump who declared everything fine has egg on his face what he will point to the fact what he already has pointed to many times is that since the singapore summit since he started engaging with north korea they haven't been any more launches they might have the capability for it but they're not doing it now that's a good point and i and i mys

as the chairman mentioned a few 2015-2016, in according to the national institute of international education, students studied in other countries in the western hemisphere and 84,000 nonu.s. students studied in the u.s. and only 16,000 of those non-u.s. students were from mexico and this is why we need to do more to increase our educational change with our very portrayeding partner. specifically this bill establishes that it shall be the policy of the united states to continue deepening the economic cooperation between the united states and mexico and to expand the educational and professional exchange programs with our neighbors to the south. in order to do this, it would require the secretary of state to develop a strategy that one, encourages more economic exchanges between the two counties at the different levels, especially with communities in the southern border region. number two, it would encourage the institutions and businesses o col rate to train aspiring entrepreneurs. and number three, it would extend cooperation through vocational exchanges between both countries and number four, and fostering b

of fossil fuel assets around the world. and the owners clearly want to work hard to keep extracting them and burning them. that is an enormous challenge. but the international institutions that you all study, or represent, share a little bit more about, and i think ms. lee you mentioned an idea i did not completely capture. maybe you would like to start by mentioning that idea. how can we help , how can multilateral institutions help us as human civilizations on this planet, take on this enormous and immediate catastrophic challenge? >> the idea i was talking about had to do with the competitive differences, when countries move into states to reduce carbon emissions. for example, if the u.s. wanted to put on a carbon tax and wave the price of producing certain manufactured good, and other countries might move more slowly, developing countries. the paris accord. if production were to move from the u.s. to those places that have not yet reduced carbon emissions, you are increasing emissions globally. because you are moving relatively clean production to a relatively dirty place. one way of deterring that is to allow an adjustable tax that would adjust for the difference in carbon strategies
