. >> nick burns is joining us. nick burns, of course, former top state department official and ambassador to nato. nick, how would you handle this if you were in government right now? >> i think that nearly all our modern presidents would have come out for the right of the people of hong kong to maintain their rights. it's inherent, they're written down in the june 1997 handover agreement between the united kingdom and china. the people's republic of china. these people deserve to have their democracy kept intact. and for the president to say today that he favors essentially both sides, that was reminiscence of his disgraceful statements about charlottesville two years ago. america, our voice is silent. there are protests in both hong kong and also in russia in the two leading authoritarian countries in the world. it weakens us and it's a disservice to the people fighting for their freedoms in both places. >> what do you think the likelihood is that president xi will crack down stronger if this continues? >> i thin

specifically, the french president wants the devastating wildfires burning in the amazon to be a priority. nick paton walsh is joining us with the latest on the fires in the amazon in brazil. nick, the last hour you gave us a really good scan of what the impact of the fires, the smoke in the air, what that looks like and described what it feels like. i wonder for the people who are with us at this hour you can tell us about that and what is changing at least, the suggestion from the brazilian president. >> reporter: well, look, let me run you through where we're standing here. we are where close to 300 large fires are currently burning, the most afflicted states in all of brazil. i'm going to show you what -- this has slightly got worse, the sun has kind of picked up in terms of visibility. you should be able to see the sky here. but there is no sky. instead, that alarm is not something to be concerned about, just a normal factory nearby, but what you're seeing here is smoke, which has traveled across brazil as far as tssao paulo, obscuring the skyline. this is not an exact science, but we've a

cnn's nick payton walsh is in brazil not far from where the fires are burning. it looks like you have moved from your first location, and you're closer now? >> reporter: yeah, we moved actually down the main highway. as we were passing by, we came across this small isolated roadside fire, but it gave an example really of how it's simply catching and it's moved down about 50 yards of this highway side here, and the firemen turned up. are trying to dampen it out, just hitting it with shovels. it seems to have burned itself out mostly. this is basically the scale of the challenge they're facing here. incredibly dry brush, anything considered to light. this is the place with the most fires in brazil right now, and experiencing a pall of smoke over the rivers and the skyline that residents say they simply didn't see a year before. and it's really, i think, putting extra fuel to the claims brazilians are feeling something unprecedented right now, and critics say is essentially the result of human activity, of people coming in, deforesting, trying to get more agricultu

burning season. we could be seeing the amazon edging towards irrevocable destruction. >> nick paton walsh, thank youeing our eyes and ears, bringing us the reality of what's happening in the amazon. my next guest has been trying to get the world to notice the warning signs before it's too late. thank you, sir, for being with me. how worried are you right now as these fires blaze throughout the amazon? >> everyone should be very worried about it, not only because of what's being destroyed this year, but also because of what it shows the tendency is, which is an increase in deforestation, tremendous increase since last year, and with it an increase in fires. even when it's an extreme drought here. this is a record fire. this is 2012, when the current system started. and during that time, you had a major el niÑo in 2015-16. and we're beating that in a normal year. this is a warning. we had a tremendous dismantling of the environmental agencies and policies in brazil just in seven months. and we still have 3 1/2 years to go in the bolsonaro administration. a lot could happen. >> we know deforestation ha

burning for land clearing anywhere in the country. critics believe his openness to that practice helped lead to the amazon emergency. cnn's nicknt lines of the fire with a rare look at the people directly impacted by this disaster. >> reporter: dusk isn't when you rest as the amazon burns, it's when the day cools enough to give firefighters a chance. everything we see and a bumpy hour's drive to nowhere turned to ashes in the last four days. this is how, the wall that marches across the bush and into the trees when it can. it feels a bit like the end of the world, doesn't it, and when flames rage like this, the firefighters actually have to pull back, and there's nothing they can do, really, until the wind dies down. destruction that overshadows, an entire branch of our species here. an indigenous community a thousand strong say they legally own a million hectors nearby. the next generation will have a darker future, he says, since this president came to power these things are happening a lot more. president jair bols narronaro i bringing progress to the amazon, letting these areas be commercially farmed for the first time. th

. >> joining us now, brian nick and managing director and portfolio manager burns mckenney welcome to both of you brian, how do we interpret these global bond yield move race to the bottom >> i think the reason that the attention that we are paying is more to the bond market than equity market at this point is because the central bankers have gotten out in front. the u.s. is still i think pretty far from recession we think it's a one and three chance the next year you need to see the trade war escalate for that to be a big risk central bankers are cutting rates. the fed last week, why are they cutting rates? a preempttive measure? >> now it looks like they should have done 50. >> yes if the fed delivers on what the market is expecting, it won't have an impact it's not going to be helpful so do they come out with a surprise do they go 50 in september these have to be on the table if they want this to have an impact the tweets from the president make their job a bit harder. it looks like any extraordinary measure they do is because of political pressure. >> or targeting the dollar, whic

nick. >> reporter: it's kind of a startling move to be honest obviously given the enormity of what we're seeing here. fires burningent, twice the size of french, 85% up on the year before. we saw startling damage ourselves. his chief of staff has come out with an extraordinary comment, saying how french president emmanuel macron can't avoid a forseeable fire in a church. he's referring to the notre dame fire that burned the landmark almost down to the ground. he has a lot to look after at home and in the french colonies. this a part of the spat that has overshadowed so much of the urgency here. jair bolsonaro said he's not sure why people are fascinated at the amazon, feeding the conspiracy idea this is some big global colonial plot for people to get their hands on brazil's natural resources. the urgency is still certainly there. we have seen this in remarkable personality based bickering. emmanuel macron very offended and an offensive meme regarding his wife, which jair bolsonaro commenting on, and he hoped eventually brazil would get a president that's up to the job. none of this is getting to the heart of the p

burning out of control. scientists say more than 80,000 fires have destroyed a huge part of the forest, an 85% spike over last year. cnn nickwalsh was up in a helicopter. he filed this report from brazil. >> reporter: there's little below but ghosts, and even they seem to be giving up. these are the newest fires in the worst hit state in the amazon. we didn't see below us any of the 43,000 troops brazil's president has pledged to the fight. in fact, in some places it's so bad you can't even see how bad it is. that will suit just fine those who would rather ignore the world's most urgent environmental crisis. no matter how high you are, you can't escape the smoke. we even closed our air vents inside the plane to stop it. the sun made this green paradise over millennia, but now barely peeks through the smoke of the destruction. these sites, the climate crisis you keep hearing, instead, right below us, right here and right now. >> more startling is how much of this immense jungle people have managed to destroy in so short a time. they had help. fires they lit and that happened naturally in the dry heat. usually peak later in t

nick lubeewith the oakland fire department. first of all, tell us what is going on here. what is burning? >> it's a wayhouse. commercial building. it has multiple businesses in with. it's 37 different businesses and they're divided up. and consists of wood shops, metal-working shops, cnc shops. bronzing shops. and currently, about 10 of the 37 businesses are affected. we received the call about 6:23 this morning for a warehouse on fire. quickly escalated to a third-alarm fire. and right now, we are still in a very dynamic situation. and actively fighting the fire. >> do you know if anybody was inside, was anybody hurt? >> we're working closely with the building owner. and the master lease tenant. we were told -- they were advising there is nobody in the business at the time the fire started. >> have firefighters been able to actually go inside. >> initially, we did try to make an aggressive interior tact. with first arriving units. and go into a defensive posture. we did not have a chance to get a complete search of the building. >> some neighbors told us this is an art collective that makes art for burning

burn. scientists say more than 80,000 fires have scorched the forest so far this year. and that is an 85% spike over just last year. so cnn's nickew over the inferno. tell us what you've seen. >> reporter: absolutely starting to see how apocalyptic it looks from above. we spent three hours flying over the worst-hit parts of the amazon. frankly at times, the smoke was so intense, we couldn't even see much of the forest canopy. we just heard from emmanuel macron that $20 million are being pledged to fight this immediate crisis and they'll be talking about it at the u.n. shortly. but look at these pictures. a lot more than that needs to be done. there's little below but goats and even they seem to have been given up on. these are the newest fires in the worst-hit state in the amazon. we didn't see below us any of the 43,000 troops brazil's president has pledged to the fight. in fact, in some places, it's so bad you can't even see how bad it is. that'll suit just fine those who would rather ignore the world's most urgent environmental crisis. no matter how high you are, you can't escape the smoke. we even closed our air vents inside

burn, a local tribe is taking matters into their own hands and becoming firefighters, leaders have agreed to meet on policies, but these raging wildfires are devouring chunks of the rainforest every hour. nick walsh just returned from the front lines. tell us about these indigenous tribes and how they're battling the fires? >> this is what they call mother, the earth, where they've lived for centuries, increasingly depleted by government. we heard today the president issuing a wide federal ban on people using fire to clear their land. something considered to be part of the problem, in starting these fires, you have to see from the grounds level, the fires rage like a wall pushing through the land. dusk isn't when you rest when the amazon burns, it's when the day cools enough to give firefighters a chance. everything we see in a bumpy hour's drive to nowhere turn to ashes in the last four days. this is how. the wall, the marches across the it feels a bit like the end of the world. when flames rage like this the firefighters have to pull back and there's nothing they can do, really until the wind dies down. destruction that overshadows an entire branch of our species here. they legally own ne

burning in the country this year than last, and more than heaalf are in the amazon. macron's comments are being called sensationalist. hen hundreds of temporary firefighters have been authorized. nick paton walsh has more from brazil. >> reporter: extraordinary scenes we saw in three hours above the amazon forest. at times, unable to get low enough towards the forest canopy because of the sheer amount of smoke, making it hard for our pilots to fly. at times, turning off the vents inside the aircraft for our own safety. when we did see the fires, it is extraordinary, exactly how much of the forest they have devastated, and how they rage uncontrolled. often moving in a line simply across the savannah. during our three-hour flight, we did not see one instance of the brazilian army. the president here saying 43,000 of them have been deployed to fight the fires. we ovaticcasionally see them in skies to draw water. we saw none on the ground. little signs of human life at all. only one bird making it around that i saw in the smoke over that forest. a lot of cattle. sometimes they're the reason why the forest is cleared for agricultural land, so they can grow soy to mefeed the cattle, the
