every week, presenter ros atkins takes an in—depth look at one of the issues in the news.he channel in this way. president macron has said... but the dangers of these crossings have long been known, and yet, for some, the risks are still worth taking. these are people getting onto boats in france this week. we know the number of crossings has gone up sharply this year to over 25,000 so far. and earlier this month, a new record was set when over 1,100 people crossed the channel on a single day. the uk government has repeatedly promised to make this route unviable. so far, it's been unable to, and some british mps think france needs to do more. it's simply not credible that 1,000 people can muster on the french beaches and the french not spot them as they get into small boats. they have money provided from the british taxpayer, they have drones, they have security intelligence, and they need to get the people, the french police down on the beaches to put a stop to these boats leaving the french shores. natalie elphicke referring to a deal signed injune where the uk pledged t

time now for a special report by ros atkins who is looking at why vast tree planting initiatives aret's one of the reasons why deforestation has been a focus at cop26. bear in mind, in the last 10,000 years a third of the world's forests have been lost. half of that was in the last century. and if you want to slow global warming, fewer trees doesn't help, and so two policies are being adopted. one is to stop deforestation. the united states will help the world deliver on our shared goal of halting natural forest loss and restoring at least an additional 200 million hectares of forest and other ecosystems by the year 2030. and then the second policy looks to address that forest loss. the commitment yesterday was to sort out deforestation within ten years. in that time, some 70 million hectares of forest will have been disappeared, which is horrendous. what are we going to do to put that back? so it's not only stopping the deforestation, it's reforesting as well. planting trees — as china is doing here — is the second part of the plan. but look beyond the bold announcements and it's fa

ros atkins has taken a look back at how events unfolded, what owen paterson is alleged to have done wrongays in parliament. such a suspension has to be approved by a vote in parliament. normally those votes go through. not this time. borisjohnson and his government decided the process had not been fair. so instead of playing politics on this issue, which is what they are doing, i think that she needs to consider the procedures of this house in a spirit of fairness. so rather than accept the process and accept the outcome, the prime minister and his colleagues decided to change the entire way the parliamentary standards are regulated. all of this was done through an amendment put forward by the conservative mp andrea leadsom. she made the case for a review of how all of this works. the leader of the house of commons was fully supportive and argued this and argued this was about more than owen patterson's situation. i think the reason it has come now is because of the volume of complaints that have come through and the more widespread feeling of unfairness across all benches. nonetheless, a

we will be back shortly. after ros atkins on russia.d 2014 russia annexed crimea orfrom the ukraine and made a military incursion into the east of ukraine to support separatists. for that russia was booted out of the g—8 group of rich countries and faced economic sanctions too. but it didn't back down. and now this year, this is been happening. first in the spring of thousands of russian troops were sent towards the border with ukraine. now in november another build—up is happening. and ukrainian officials estimate that 114,000 troops had been deployed. and vladimir putin will be well aware that the us continues to watch. we've seen in the past russia mask forces on ukraine's borders, claim some kind of provocation by ukraine. —— mass forces. and then invade and basically following through on something they were planning all along. that's what they did in 2014. if that's the us, ukraine too says it's learned lessons. he did the same seven years ago in crimea. they recognise that actually this peninsularfrom us. vladimir putin knew his a

here's ros atkins with a rundown of how the speech went and what the reaction has been. in the whole of the uk. it was an orthodox start to the speech, but soon we were into more unusual territory. when presenting a ten point plan to support businesses going green, mrjohnson compared himself to moses. he also quoted lenin. and then made this pitch for electric cars. evs may not burble like sucking doves, and they may not have that vrrrom vrrrom raaah raaah that you like, but they have so much torque that they move off the lights faster than a ferrari. as the daily mail noted, mrjohnson attempted an impression of a traditional petrol engine, issuing a series of guttural sounds to confuse delegates in south shields. mrjohnson also began to list some of the policies he is promoting. with safer streets, with great local schools, with fantastic broadband... but at this point the prime minister lost his place, and for 21 long seconds he couldn't find it again. eh... em... forgive me. no doubt to his relief, mrjohnson then returned to the script, and before he was finished, he

staying with the theme of climate change, here's ros atkins with a look at deforestation and global warminges climate change, and there are lots of plans to plant more of them. this was donald trump back in 2020. today, i am pleased to announce the united states willjoin1 trillion trees initiative, being launched here at the world economic forum. 1 trillion trees. and if that's the us, we've seen other big pledges. ethiopia plans to plant 20 billion trees by 2022. china says it will plant 36,000 square kilometres of new forest every year by 2025. and pakistan wants to plant ten billion trees by 2023. but is tree—planting really this rare thing, a good idea without a catch? to many, it's not that straight—forward. this is dr bonnie waring. we cannot plant our way out of the carbon crisis with business—as—usual emission scenarios. or, as dr kate hardwick at kew gardens in london notes... there are other risks too — of green—washing, of damage to ecosystems, of trees distracting from emissions cuts. let's look at all of this, starting with the crucial role that trees play. there are an estimat
