well 1st of all some of the fossil industries need to stop lobbying against climate protection and climate legislation it's been recently revealed that the 5 biggest oil companies alone spent $200000000.00. lobbying and delaying climate against like climate legislation and i think industry needs to change their business model to be compatible with their parents agreement rather than trying to cling to the old one and trying to undermine the implementation of the pair's agreement and what advice would you have for governments in terms of trying to combat this kind of lobbying that you mentioned from corporations to try and undermine the reaching of these goals where the governments shouldn't basically listen too much to special interest lobbying but have the interest of humanity and their own citizens on their mind 1st and foremost but is there any way to ensure that that happens is there any mechanism to ensure that governments put humanity's interests 1st and corporate interests well i think basically the people have to put pressure on the government as have been happening now for example

demonstrators are on their way to the nearby village of fearsome where they will show their support for climate protection at the largest mining area in europe. they hope to influence politicians thru civil disobedience the deliberate file ation of law and order. except the fact that we might get arrested because the climate crisis is so urgent it's all about our lives now and we are consciously crossing the border between legal and illegal yet calls us a corner this week the entire western rhineland is the focus point of the climate protest movement. thousands of protesters have gathered here and i am generous westernmost city they have launched what they call the 1st international climate strike i have met mostly students coming from germany but also some from neighboring countries such as belgium france or the netherlands they demand they ask for more climate action their main priority is any brown coal mining in germany the open pits linen mines and power plants in the region the rhine and reachin i want to the main sources of c o 2 emissions in europe one of the protests is a 15 year old told me that

that image of germany still stands up and still violent yes of course it is climate change protection has moved in the middle and into the mainstream within the last month and that i think that the green party success is in some kind you can you can understand it as the movement off climate change protections within the family's bijan. a broader society we have. professor. va question is i suppose the success of the greens that has now been on the very been on the rise as marx he was pointing out for quite some time is it here to stay because they've been they've been here before and faded back to becoming a 1015 percent party are they here to stay this time as one of germany's leading forces i mean i'm a bit more cautious about these polls reading and press and polls are polls elections are elections and by the way european elections are different from national elections in national elections of people will vote more for party where they're not only have trust and have sympathies but they must think that they are able to govern and if we are looking to 2 people at the top of the corr

this meeting today for the for the conservatives to come out with a new plan when it comes to climate protection but we'll really have to see over these coming months now when the rest of this term really until 2021. whether the conservatives and the social democrats are going to be able to really turn things around because as things stand if germany was to go to the polls right now if these opinion polls are anything to go by then by the social democrats and the conservatives would suffer huge losses so of course amid all of this disruption of andrea nala stand down a social democrats party leader the last thing on anyone's mind especially the social democrats and the conservatives right now is fresh elections because as i say if these polls are anything to go by both parties would do dismally right and i believe we're going to be crossing to william no group blue cross to is a political reporter standing by at all parliamentary studios william some political analysts have basically said the s.p.d. made a huge mistake when they entered into a grand coalition with the c.d.u. was it was it their

climate protection the greens fundamental issue is now a hot topic for people from all walks of life. so are the former eagle warriors on their way to becoming germany's next major party. that's the question the next major policy that talking about what you were talking about -- folks come back about this these folks part time. just give us another idea so that our view is really understand how elementary that is being for german politics. and explain why the greens cannot be in your estimation of folk spots i a big ten policy. of for expert tie in -- played on major role in the second half of the twentieth century but till then we see a steep decline and they are important for heterogeneous societies. to keep them to keep it together on a political level and they can only do it. if they voters across all social classes. across all age cohorts and all the cultural milieu eights and this is not what the greens are prepared to do. they may exploit more and more this many uk off course will play tennis and be fined and urban area they will gain a lot of votes from the younger peopl. but

failed on both sides to address that very important issue in these elections which of course was climate protection so we have to wait and see just about half an hour now to see exactly what marco plans to say this afternoon but from what we can gather so far the c.d.u. and her conservatives at least very keen to continue on with this so-called grand coalition all right kate brady we're going to be speaking to you again a little later but we're going to take a look now at the korea of under way analysis who has her now announced her resignation as leader of the social democrats. fund to be in the list 1st joined the democratic party more than 20 years ago as the leader of the party's youth organization she studied german and political science in one of her very 1st interviews she told g.w. that a career in politics was not in the cards. shopping it for you but i don't want to stay in politics for the rest of my life so after being chair i want to look for a real job and for that i need a good degree. but after finishing university 4 years later now is rose in the ranks of the s.p.d. 1st as a parlia

thousands of demonstrators are on their way to a nearby village, where they will show support for climate protectiont the largest mining area in europe. they hope to influence politicians through civil disobedience, the deliberate violation of law & order. [protesters chanting] >> we accept the fact we may get arrested because the climate crisis is so urgent. it affects us all. that is why we are deliberately exercising civil disobedience to a demand a phaseout of coal power. correspondent: this week the western rhineland is the focus point of the protest movement. laila: germany plans to phase out coal in power generation by 2038, but long before that, five villages in the western german state of west failure are expected to be demolished to make way for a mine that extracts a particularly dirty type of coal. villagers will receive compensation, but some are asking why they should give up their homes when germany is phasing out coal power anyway. reporter: they are inching ever closer, the gigantic shovels of the lignite investigate -- lignite minors. they are set to develop -- set to demolish this

the government has been failing to implement any targets on the climate protection.argets in place you need to keep them up at the measures in place if you can agree on targets sometime far in the future that's not enough, you need to decide what we are going to do now there's a lot of things we need to do. the good thing is we know what to do, science has been telling us there's been a lot of proposals and will need to have the political will and a majority to put that into place. you're one the candidates to take over from you're one the candidates to take overfrom jean—claude, you're one the candidates to take over from jean—claude, do you think you have a chance based on the conversations happening? we greens have been doing very well in the elections, but i would say that maybe the president is not the one that we are going to necessarily get with over 10% of the european parliament even though we are very happy about our support from the uk. we set out to do is real change in the policies. still with me are a jewellers for the ear reporter and a french journali

support a candidate for the commission presidency who commits to for example doing more on climate protection and not just a bit more and going for social europe fixing the tryst in the mediterranean and doing something about the rule of law problems we have in many member states so this is really what it all depends of course the p.p. is that's a no it's a very close group to the greens but in any case no matter which candidate you're talking about it really all depends on the content do you feel like let's say the fight against climate change has been adequately represented ever since the european election so are people talking about it enough now or are they talking too much about people. what i think to talk about the climate crisis has certainly increased so that's but it's not by far not enough if you just look at the council conclusions or at least have been produced before sure it's great to see that finally there's a priority on climate change in the strategic agenda for the next commission but then they have other priorities for example an economy where there's no mention at all abo

german foreign minister i come sais that it's time to put climate protection at the top of the international agenda do you think the international community is doing enough on this issue no i don't think that the international community is doing enough we also made sure that this was put on the security council is agenda when we served our term on the square to counsel and i think that we will have to keep it there there is some resistance but i think that we have managed to get it into the wording of resolutions for example and also actually explain the link between climate change and security and this will increasingly be a problem that we have to address what is the most serious threat to rising from climate change is it migration is it economic pressures or is it just the general potential for conflict it is also on top of these things you will find also the lack of the shortage of water and food and the fact that for example conflicts over land. social unrest because people have to move when they can't find. for example grazing land for their cattle or they can't find clean drinking wat

for the night's climate protection is a major priority they want eco friendly traffic concepts and clean energy. coal mining is being phased out to tackle global warming. many in the affected areas consider this a big mistake and fifth at jobs to them and fired mental protection is a luxury only rich city folk can afford. so who can bring the country together. vanessa who can bring the country together. i don't think the greens a particularly fading so for now they attracting this -- been intellectual elite but i believe that -- and this is what also the green party always keep saying and they are working on this very hot is that the and the green question or the environmental question is also a social question because when we look at who is suffering from -- from time to change for example yes of course ask about those cold minus but first of all it is a small number we can find solutions for them a globally. and is a completely different people these are the poorest people we have here and they will migrate when and what time it changes and also here in the cities we do we do have to f

now as good a nurse of some as special advisor to the government on climate protection. like. most state leaders are in 2 minds about the issue on the one hand they want to attract foreign investors with trade agreements that offer multinationals attractive conditions. on the other they want to enact environmental labor and public health legislation that is often not in the interests of multinational corporations. no uber new consideration it's time we admit that we're dealing with 2 different systems of power. the 1st is the traditional power system the one that is increasingly being reduced to a folkloric accessory. a kind of shadow play to entertain the public that's all i'm talking about the countries traditionally discussed in the newspapers shop france germany australia japan brazil the us and so on. the rocks alongside this there is a 2nd entirely autonomy's power system that functions totally differently it doesn't copy the existing model it operates according to its very own rules so it appears multinationals view themselves as an independent system set apart from eve
