in practice. >> well, the planet is fine night. it only has certain limits. resources are available or so climate change is an example of human activity overwhelming the ability of the the earth to soak up the carbon stream coming from our activities. what we would do in a whole earth economy is start with the capacity of the planet to absorb the capacity and restrain the economy within that. unfortunately we are not doing that at all. looks like copenhagen will not take on that question directly we are in a dire situation. >> reporter: let's talk about the meeting of world leaders going on today. the president is going to pittsburgh to meet with g-20 leaders. they will spend two days talking about the global economy. what do you think should be number one on the agenda. >> join the global crisis and match it to the planet crisis underway and link them expolice zitly. we think the present system can't answer five questions what's the economy for, how does it work, how big should it be, and how should it be governed and what's it is

for you later, leading scientists are beginning to think that artificial trees might help save the planet. why was a distinguished american actor being watched by britain's security services? >> the long years of suffering and the second world war has been remembered in poland. there are commemorations to mark 70 years since the conflict began. leaders from germany, russia, and poland pay their respects to the dead. no one knows how many millions have died. it was a day of solemn ceremony but that did not stop the president does poland voicing his anger at the role of the soviets in world war ii. >> september the first, 1939. the day not the troops poured into poland. -- the day nazi troops invaded poland. two days later, england and france declared war on germany. the second world war had begun. at a quarter to five this morning, the same time that germany attacked, poland marked the anniversary of the invasion and honor the heroes. hear, polish troops were outnumbered 15 to one but they held out for a week before surrendering. it was not just the german aggression, it was also the attac

it is like taking away a giant mirror from the top of planet. her thing is that the ice that is on the land in places like greenland and antarctic arc as thattize flows into the ocean, it appears to be speeding up. all of this stuff is really important to us developing predicte models of what will happen to the planet in the next 50 years. >> you mention the arctic sea ice cover and it diminishes every year around this time. is that diminishing effect more pronounced this year. i know it has been pretty significant during last few years. >> one thing for people to realize. every year in the winner it grows and every year in the summer it retreats. in the recent years, it has been rereading more and more every summer. we are see a continuation of that trend. in about a month, we'll release the new data for this year and it looked like we're headed towards another record low. not the lowest but still we've lost a lot of ice. the other thing is that ice isn't just retreating in terms of the total area covered. it is also getting numberer now than it

. >> reporter: he laid out what he called four pillars essential to the future of the planet: nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament; the promotion of"= peace and security; the preservation of the planet; and a global economy that works for everyone. among the specifics, the president made a plea for help in advancing middle east peace. nations aligned with both israel and the palestinians must offer more than lip service, he said. they must be willing to say publicly what they often acknowledge in private. >> the united states does israel no favors when we fail to couple an unwavering commitment to its security with an insistence that israel respect the legitimate claims and rights of the palestinians. and nations within this body do the palestinians no favors when they choose vitriolic attacks over a constructive willingness to recognize israel's legitimacy, and its right to exist in peace and security. >> reporter: on the nuclear front, mr. obama called for a support in restraining two nations with nuclear ambitions. >> if the governments of iran and north korea choose to ignore

there are also rumors rampant on the internet about a mystery planet that is going to collide with the in 2012. there is no planet -- let's just add that that planet, pparently the i'll yeps are responsible for planet x or nabiru. >> that is on the parallel universe. it is going to also affect us. >> here is what all this is based on. the mayan calendar, an amazingly accurate calendar that started thousands of years ago, accurately depeculiared certain celestial astronomical owe currents. the calendar ends in 2012. so people believe -- they must believe that is the end of the world. scientists and scholars of culture say no, it doesn't necessarily indicate that t merely is the end of the calendar. it doesn't mean they are predicting the end of the future or the world. that just means that is when the calendar ends. there are some interpretations that say it doesn't really end in 2012. this line-up of the planets, with went several web sites. there is no special alignment of the planets that will on kur in 2012. it is a myth. >> so it is not other than going to happen. >> not going to h

the good news is that saving the planet is less expensive than getting rid of it. once more, solving the problem of global warming and preserving life would cost only a fraction of what we spend each year on the business of death. with a small fraction of the $13 trillion we will assign as a minimum to military spending in the next 10 years, we could cover the entire cost of stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions in the world. the most cynical of generals could say that the demented arms race builds a reserve for future emergencies. today, i say to you that the emergency has arrived. the world has in its military spending a savings account that must be used to save our species from a very real enemy. and the world can do this without renouncing the security of its armies, a need i understand, but do not share. it is a matter of correcting excesses on one side and addressing needs on the other, for we will have little use for nuclear submarines when the ocean becomes a burning cesspool, little use for helicopters when the sky is a black cloud and little use for missile

week when twitter crashed, following a hacker's attack, it became one of the biggest stories on the planet in a matter of hours. biz stone is here. glad to have you here. how you doing? >> excellent. >> you survived the crash. >> we did. >> what have you learned on this side of the crash? >> this is what is called a denial of service attack. it is pretty common on the the internet. it is not going away anytime soon. what we learned, you got to tune your systems to handle this scale of assault. we spent 200 catching up with the popularity of twitter, getting there technically so we're stable and along comes this massive attack -- we learned a lot from it. we worked behind the scenes from folks from google and other companies to figure out how to stop the attacks and better deal with them in the future. tavis: does that mean -- you said how to better stop the attacks. >> better deal with them. you don't really stop them. tavis: that's what i go asking. you can't stop it. >> no, it is -- beeve it or not, there's not so great people out there on the internet. this kind of attack is basically,

wireless industry to just about any other wireless industry on the planet. in our space, the hottest hand sets are all launched in the united states first. we have the largest number of subscribers on high-speed networks on the planet. we of the least concentrated wireless network on the planet. we have the most number of providers. that is whether you look city to city or the nation as a whole, we have the lowest price per minute, the highest minutes used, the most broad and usage. i look at that equation and look at what could go wrong. the industry is not perfect. but there has been an evolution in the technology space. in the last 18 months, we've seen carriers offering free trial period, terminating fees, allowing people to change elements of the contract without extending it. to me, there is nothing going wrong in this space. there is a lot that is going right right now. when you look at how the proposed rules had been memorialized 18 months ago, think of what they would have missed. think about the start changes in the last 18 months. i would argue we

we have to save the planet. let's hope that at the copenhagen summit, there will be truly important and significant decisions, and we are willing to do this. everyone must contribute to the extent of their ability. on what is the basic cause of this pollution. this is over consumption. we are exhausting our fossil fuels. fossil fuels that we accumulated over millions of years are being burned, in one century. and this has to do with the economy. i should not read this -- i will refer to this and i invite you to analyze this. [speaking spanish] if you look at this, just this, there are 12 recommendations of this commission. let us assess them. i think that although we do not question the capitalist model, they do a dress the substance. we socialists do question the model, l.s.i. consensus solutions for the medium term, and then we will deal with the long term. the report says, look at the incumbent and the -- and come -- income and the solutions, the heritage, more importance for the redistribution inf income. --

he tried to save the planet, lift up the impoverished continent of africa, avoid a trade war with china and, of course, bring peace to the middle east. the president's day began with 100 other heads of state for an unprecedented meeting on combating climate change. >> the security and stability of each nation and all peoples -- our prosperity, our health and our safety are in jeopardy. >> reporter: there was lofty language, but it remains unclear what actions will be taken by the two nations that emit the most greenhouse gases, the u.s. and china. the democrats' climate change legislation is stacked up in the senate behind health care reform. and wheel chinese president hu jintao said his country announced china would cut carbon dioxide emissions by a "notable margin" by 2020, he was vague on the details. none of which bodes well for the global climate change agreement set for december. >> i'm here to say that difficulty is no excuse for complacency. unease is no excuse for inaction. and we must not allow the perfect to become the enemy of progress. >> reporter: next up, a lunch with th

we must assume -- now, listen to a greatest scientist on the planet. we must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. this mind is the matrix of all matter. now, that is very, very powerful evidence. one of the things that really intrigues me is this idea -- and i heard it many, many years ago. i'm not even sure of the original source, where i heard it. but it goes like this. when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. albert einstein once observed that -- you have the most fundamental and major decision that you have to make in your life is this. do i live in a friendly or a hostile universe? which is it? is it a universe that is filled with hostility and anger and people wanting to hate each other and people wanting to kill each other, is that what you see? because when you see the world that way, that's exactly what you will create for yourself in your life. this is from great scientific minds. and the interesting thing is that this is not just a clever play on words, that when you cha

but what we need to do is really rethink the economy, is something that operates on a finite planet and that is a little tiny step in that direction. we need to reconceive the entire economic system as something operating on a finite planet with fragile support systems and abilities to support the waste stream we produce. and the community economic system is almost blind to all that, 99% blind to the planet into it is based on the ability to grow one's economy and grow one's economy out of a developing economy to a developed economy. are you rethinking that strategy? >> we're not anti-growth but growth has to be rethought so we're reducing through-put of fossile fuels and lumber and soil and things like that so we're living with a respect for nature, recognizing the right of other species to exist and flourish alongside of us. >> when you say you're rethinking the growth agenda is this sustainable growth? is there such a thing? >> it is conceivable there is such a thing as sustainable growth but it would have to be a completely reengineered economy with very, very different incentives f

to improve the economy without danger in the planet. we must all do it together. to make copenhagen a step forward in climate change. the developed nations still have a responsibility to lead, including the united states. we will continue to do so by investing in renewable energy, promoting greater efficiency, slashing the emission targets we set for 2020 and our long-term goal for 2015. but those rapidly growing developing nations that will produce all of the growth in global carbon emissions in the decades ahead will do their part as well. they have already made great strides. still, they need the commitment to strong measures at home and the agreement to stand behind those commitments we cannot meet this challenge unless all of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases act together. there is no other way. the most vulnerable must be put on a path to sustain growth. these nations that do not have the same resources as countries like the united states or china. they do have the most immediate stake in a solution. these are nation's living with the effects of a warm
