eight percent of the vote john hall is live in stockholm for us at the headquarters of the center left social democrats so obviously a very good result for the far right of the sweden democrats but perhaps not the political earthquake that some people were predicting. no i think that's probably quite right it's a good result for the sweden democrats of course they've increased their vote share from fourteen percent in two thousand and fourteen to seventeen perhaps eighteen percent now as the vote count goes on but it's nowhere near as good as they were hoping for as much as was predicted by their leaders in just the last twenty four i was talking about twenty or thirty percent that they expected to get that might have put them in first place and that would have been a real political earthquake so i think the story of the night is that they've not done as well as they hoped as many feared and also the peeling away of support from the mainstream center right and center left parties that have occupied the high ground in politics here for years the social democrats where i'm standing now the main

the center left social democrats have been the biggest party in every swedish election for a century true again this time but not by far and it's a relief it's been their worst result of a i think it's fine big problem now is how can we make it. how can you be a government with this since it's really hard to see. how to how to make us table government this is an election that scene support shift from the center to the extremes coalition building will be tough one big winner has been the anti immigrant sweden democrats are not as big as they'd hoped the story of the night is that while the far right has become a force in swedish politics they won't be taking over just yet what would seem hairy is a political earthquake. really brought to sweep this political history and i think that they're the leaders of the two big parties social democrats and the moderate party need to listen to this single from the swedish people need to say is the policies. that the sweetest people want to see the rise of the far right in sweden meant voters took to the election with customary. suzy hasn't even i

jason: jack dorsey and infowars has been at the center of this debate for all of the social >> the saga when larger platforms like facebook and apple and youtube decided to remove most of alex jones' content from their platforms. this has been ongoing for several years. jones is a notorious right-wing conspiracy theorist, and some of his most egregious theories include claiming the sandy hook shooting was an elaborate hoax. many critics say those types of conspiracies are abusive and is spreading hateful content, as well as claiming people involved in these tragedies are crisis actors. when these platforms decided to remove this content, they said, we're continuing to do business. there was an outpouring of criticism for jack dorsey -- think more about the ethical implications, rather than wanting to appear as an apolitical platform. twitter went back and deleted flagged tweets -- then twitter banned him for a week. it is this back and forth. carol: wait until you hear about uber's latest venture. jason: it plans to expand with bikes and scooters. carol: we look into this two-w heeled f

unthinkable as they coming in in first place but relief for those swedes on the one hand relief here as well at the center left headquarters of the social democrats they've been the biggest for in swedish politics for a century throughout the history of sweden's democracy and while this is their worst result in all of that time around twenty six percent they do remain the biggest horse in sweden part swedish politics so really for them look overall this is an election that has redrawn the political landscape here in sweden it's drawn support away from the center ground the center left and the center right the extremes have done well the extremes on the left and of course on the far right.

welfare in sweden recent poll suggests this election could see a surge in support for the far right or the center left social democratic party of the prime minister stefano fron has traditionally had the biggest vote share but this time it could get its lowest numbers in almost the same tree in stark contrast support support for the far right and hema gratian anti e.u. sweden democrats has grown steadily since two thousand and ten this year under the leadership of jimmy akeson it's poised to become the country's second party it could steal some of its support from the center right moderates led by christopher sun the moderates want to form a coalition with other parties from the right called the alliance or many swedes are worried about the country's shift to the right terrible i just want to cry when i think about it they see. awful things i mean yeah of course we have a lot of refugees here we need to take care of them they come from a terrible place terrible foreigners we can't just throw them out because we can't know now sorry i just feel like crying when i think about it it's an integration issue and i

unthinkable as a coming in first place with relief for those swedes on the one hand relief here as well at the center left headquarters of the social democrats they've been the biggest force in swedish politics for a century throughout the history of sweden's democracy and while this is their worst result in all of that time around twenty six percent they do remain the biggest course in sweden part swedish politics so really for them look overall this is an election that has redrawn the political landscape here in sweden has drawn support away from the center ground the center left in the center right the extremes have done well the extremes on the left and of course on the far right immigration not unusual in europe today has been a real centerpiece but i think in the end the big story of the night is that the unthinkable as i said for many swedes the far right sweden democrats coming in potentially first but that hasn't happened. i mean you mention the celebration. behind you does it look like forming a coalition government now will be easier than predicted or is it just too soon to tell because that boils down to the exact numbe

center right and center left blocks have categorically ruled out the result for the sweeping democrats means the established parties will find it harder to form a government the outgoing social democratic bloc has a narrow lead over at the center right moderates with both gaining around forty percent. on a short while ago i spoke with correspondent barbara vangelis stock home i asked her what the far right gains mean for a country that's traditionally been viewed as a bastion of liberal values. really means that the country seems to sort of take a new direction i mean sweden used to be the humanitarian superpower on the international stage for decades all was and there was sort of like a fix image shows sweden's we liberal they are tolerant they are open they embrace other cultures and all this is now the question because it has shown that there is an underbelly of swedish politics and of course of swedish mentality of part of the voters here of people in this country who don't agree was that anymore who feel insecure of who really do follow the calls of the right wing populist to sort of go in for the fear mongering that has been really dominant throughout this election cam

majority in sunday's general election but the country's far right it recorded for its proportions major gains the ruling center left social democrats and their allies took forty point six percent of the vote just more than the center right alliance which managed forty point three percent the populist sweden democrats as the party with roots to the neo nazi movement surged into third place taking seventeen point six percent the far right party hopes to become kingmaker in any ruling coalition though both centrist walks have declared that they will not work or govern with the populace. this man jimmy orcus on has given his party rooted in white supremacy a respectable face and sweet talk to disgruntled voters away from sweden's political center. do you know what friends of sweden they said on t.v. that it's hard to declare a winner of this election i know he's won the sweden democrats. in a small country that's accepted nearly half a million asylum seekers since two thousand and twelve sons messages resonated with those skeptical of immigration and the political establishment incumbent prime ministers define left and center

andreea socially is from the geo mar how holt center for ocean research in kyoto studies what effects such tinkering could have on life on our planet. your side inspired me to distinguish between two methods of climate engineering the first. tries to address the symptom namely climate warming by reducing incoming sunlight. the second method targets the cause of climate change c o two it seeks to capture the greenhouse gas from the atmosphere on land in the oceans or underground. relatively small interventions could have mass of facts at least that's what the many computer simulations carried out by ocean indicate. some climate engineering ideas sound simple and reasonable like using the oceans to storage. and. more carbon dioxide dissolves in cold water than more water so huge pumps could bring up cold water from the depths of the oceans to absorb excess c o two from the air at the surface. simulation suggests that by doing that we could compensate for ten percent of today's emissions but it would require massive interference and giant eco systems and the whole southern ocean would ch

jobs are for all the value of these companies they employ very few people the jobs are mostly located in urban centers and require certain education levels and then there are questions about social responsibility including taxes things like that they're hitting firms like google and facebook and of course the growing realization that our data is ultimately the product that they're selling here and so i think that sort of jaded our view of business is like google google wasn't the first. and still many mole but what has sent its past its competitors was just the right time all how did it work it was it was there as a bunch of other search engines were there but it was it was simply better at the beginning it was it took what was basically a simple query system matching web pages by the search word itself and went further i'm not going get into it here it's well complex but it's called the page rank system and it really said google part consumers notice it that they were getting better better results and so they flocked to google and that in turn allowed google to really roll out its ad words advertising program and that's where the pay per click advertising program so as more peo
