injured. 16 firefighters, i said to be missing, will add augustine's joining us. lie live from much kansas in the north of cuba. just bring us up to date with the latest on this fire. well, just starting with what you were saying about the firefighters. we've been interviewing 556 today, who's been risking and unfortunately losing their lives, fighting against this inferno and on the stories they were telling the interviews they said were really hiring. just by chance, we include one fireman who was between 2 of those time finding their agent to have exploded. he was between both of them 2 days ago with his colleagues trying to douse a 2nd. thank so that didn't catch fire when the 1st tank exploded on just moment before it exploded. a colleague of it said, ron, most firefighters managed to get away. he managed to grab onto the hose, he'd been using the hose down the tongue and was pulled about 40 meters along the grounds on just by the skin of his c manage to survive. when he turned round, he saw incineration on fire engines. and how does to be said, frankly, there's his colleagues, so huge amount of respect i feel for these 5 factors, of course with other people in the

times so raging pretty much like is just as big as it was earlier on, but it's only coming out of one tank now because thanks to humanitarian efforts from mexico and venezuela, both both of whom have sent firefighters, but more importantly, they've sent knology, they sent equipment, they've sent a special phone, put out these industrial places with you, but simply doesn't have enough folks. i'm that has been the secret of how and how they've managed to be able to push it out. however, the situation still remain so you can see the wind is blowing that way, and that's the way the when people wanted the blood because that's going on with the bank. so if that go to this crisis, could get even worse from the government that, that managing to maintain the temperature low by spraying what's on the tank that's fingers crossed here in cuba. so that the capitalism and doesn't get even worse. this is the biggest power plant in the whole country, just the kilometer away from the site. and thank

i think it is. i think it's a historic achievement. this really represents the 1st time in the united states that we have seen congress take a serious effort to deal with the climate problem and, and this fell, the programs that includes are ones we've been advocating for for many years. and i think it will have a huge impact allowing the clean energy transition that we know we're going to need to deal with climate change to really accelerate. and we've already gotten a good start, but we need this help to be able to be even ballpark with the climate objectives that we have in there. we know we're going to have to meet. i'm just having a brief look at some of the, the, the main headlines in this. there seem to be tax incentives, incentives to steer consumers towards electric vehicles and towards renewable energy sources like wind and solar pod that makes sense. it also includes millions of dollars to climate resiliency funding for tribal governments and native hawaiians $60000000000.00 to help disadvantage areas disproportionately affected by climate change. i think my question really is, is there a danger? do you think that the money is actually going to be too thinly spread and should it actually be better focused on significant projects and significant sectors that could have a major jumbo create a major jumping in dealing with climate change? yeah, i think it has those major programs every really need that we've been focusing on, which are long term incentives for the 1st time for wind and solar and other renewable technologies. we've been dealing in this country with the on, again, off again, tax incentives. the don't allow businesses really to plan to grow, to plan, to get to the level renewable penetration we know we're going to need now for the 1st time renewable energy developers and manufacturers will know that we have long term incentives in place. and it's long overdue in this country. renewable incentives have been phasing down. and meanwhile, there are permanent incentives for fossil fuels that have been on the books for more than a century. so we need the tax code to be helpful to be spurring us forward to meet our climate targets. and i think that's where this bill's gonna achieve. yeah, a lot of the bill. it again, just for the a brief look seems to be based on significant tax increases for large corporations . one would imagine that they are unlikely to sit down and accept what they're being offered. is there a danger? do you think that philosophy, enthusiasm for the plan might be there now? it might end up actually getting bogged down in legal processes is big companies try to fight back on this. i don't think that's where it's going to go. but i do think we're likely to see an accident when the house takes his fill up on friday. and i, what we see a lot of the american economy is already making the pivot to clean energy. a lot of the demand for clean energy is coming from big corporations and high tech companies that have data centers. countries that use a lot of energy. they like renewables because not only is it cleaner and climate safe, but the numbers are working out between technological innovation and economies of scale. and most of the country today, renewables are the cheapest source of new power. so we're getting to the point where the economics are going to be driving that clean energy transition that we desperately need to make and as fast as the renewable sector has been growing in the u. s. and around the world. we know we've got to do better. we've got to grow faster. as we mentioned before, the democrats had a fight in their hands just to get to a 5050 split on base with comma harrison putting through her own costing vote. if there is no follow up, if there's a change of government in the u. s. and things change is the amount of money that the industry is getting. know enough to put it on the right track towards really dealing with climate change. i think so and to be clear, these are changes to the tax code that they're long term. so we're looking at 10 years of incentives that would take another act of congress and you know, that would have to be signed in the law, the house to overturn the policies that are established in the spell. assuming we get through the house, which i think we, well, the president signs it of course key. well, it would, it would take a lot to turn that on to chad. so historically, these kind of incentives have lasted and have worked. so w

u. s. congress is now on the verge of passing its most significant legislation in history aimed at combating climate change. u. s. senate gave its approval by a 51 to 50 margin with democratic vice president, kamala harris, casting the tie, breaking vote. not a single republican senator voted for the plan, which in addition to offering tax incentives for reducing carbon emissions, also ameson road. at last we've arrived and we are elated. every member of my caucus is elated about what happened because we've really, we've changed the world in a way that you really get an opportunity to do that. our bill reduces inflation. lowest costs creates millions of manufacturing jobs, enhances our energy security and is the boldest climate package in us history. the senate has now passed the most significant bill to fight the climate crisis ever. it's a big claims there from chuck schumer. let's go to washington dc. now talk with our washington bureau chief in his po. good to see you, edith. let's help our viewers understand something here. how did efforts to reduce prescription drug prices and efforts to slow climate change? how did they end up in the same legislation? this piece of legislation, brand known as the in flayson reduction act, has been in the works for over a year now. but the democrats were able to muscle it through this weekend after really endless roadblocks. so it might be indeed seem to be an interesting mix of topics from fighting the time a change to reduce struck prices. the reason for that is the simple fact that the biden administration had to agree on many, many compromises to get the necessary votes from within its own party. and we got chuck schumer, we just heard. they're saying that this is the boldest climate baggage in history, saying that we changed the world, but i decided to crunch the numbers here. the part of the legislation aimed at finding climate change is funded by an amount that is not even 5 percent of the annual us defense budget. so is congress throwing peanuts at climate change? i? well i understand that it is kind of appealing to compare these 2 figures as one could say actually fighting the climate climate catastrophe is also a huge battlefield. but brent, i think we have to be fair here. the original bills, beg better, bland, was a little over a trillion dollars, but it was never going to happen with this congress in how politicized the political institutions are these days here in the united states. so the, as for the 1st time is making real investments in combating climate change. and i think at least this is a beginning. yeah, in this garment you make very good point. you know, we should be glad that we're getting as much as we are getting, considering how the politics are right now on capital hill to day shine. it said that it will no longer cooperate with the u. s. on friday climate change. now, this is important because the u. s. and china that the world's number one, number 2 emitters of greenhouse gases. and wondering how much do you think this is just beijing blustery? well the white house has been in a tough position with international challenges like china, some speculate actually that this is potentially the count, re puffing chest after how speaker nancy pelosi took the controversial trip to taiwan. so politically are there is a lot of bipartisanship between the democrats and the republicans here in the, as in how it views taiwan and china. but indeed, when it comes to fighting the climate extra fee, it will be much, much harder if not impossible, without the cooperation between china and the u. s. in easy to do this legislation despite its shortcomings the compromises, despite jain as possible hyperbole. i mean, it remained a major political victory for president bite does well, the white house and senate democrats have been going b
