Next bicester thanks for joining us marathon u. N. Climate talks in madrid have ended with agreement on some key points but the most contentious issues remain unresolved after more than 2 weeks negotiators failed to deliver a firm agreement on how to handle Carbon Markets thats where big emitters of Greenhouse Gases can buy the right to pollute from countries that emit less than their quota or fair share so the delegates from almost 200 countries passed declarations calling for ambitious climate targets but the critical decision on rules for regulating Carbon Emissions was postponed until next year. They were the longest talks to date leaving representatives exhausted with little progress made on how to limit Global Warming to under 2 degrees but there was agreement on one issue regretfully after all the hard work that you have all done we couldnt get our to an agreement it is my sincere regret that we were not able to reach an agreement we invested a lot of energy and find a very fresh. That. At the end of the day we were not able to arrive at a final agreement observers had hoped that cup 25. 00 would end with a framework for a carbon certificate scheme imposing a tax on each tonne of Greenhouse Gas produced a condom is an environmental activists alike say its a critical step if the world hopes to minimize the impending climate catastrophe but a deal couldnt be reached in part due to resistance from some of the worlds worst polluters like the usa china india and australia. Forcing delegates to only pledge to do more to uphold the paris climate agreement. With leadership in short supply in madrid environmental activists saying its time for the European Union to step up i mean this conference in madrid is really a good point for. Much of the on Climate Change and its now up to the European Union with the green deal to go ahead with a clear vision of carbon free. Economy all eyes are now on next years meeting in glasgow but while the world continues to drag its feet the worst predictions of climate scientists have already started to become a reality. And for more analysis on the situation im joined now by helen announcement from the World Resources institute in washington helen thanks for joining us you just came back from madrid whats your report card on cost 25. I think if you look at the negotiations overall theyve really failed to deliver what we were looking for what we were expecting i think both those on the streets and what the science on the other hand there were a few small glimmers that came through. And do you get the feeling overall that there is a disconnect between what were hearing from scientists and what the negotiators are willing to talk about. Absolutely the negotiations through most of the 2 weeks when it is snails pace im at the end it really ramped up and they tried to get a deal what were hearing in contrast from the science is that the urgency the tackle Climate Change is greater than ever in addition to that we actually have better economics compared to when the pierce agreement was struck is cheaper Renewal Energy costs and fallen things are easier and cheaper to do and we have not just the use in people in the streets demanding action but also a lot of Major Business late so thats thats really a contrast to what we saw coming out of the negotiations where there was very little delivered on the paris rules of moving forward the one small glimmer of hope was that over the last 2 days and intense negotiations they did manage to get some tax which really asked urged countries to come back next year with enhanced ambition recognising the urgency and the difference we have today in terms of Emissions Reductions compared to where we need to go so they are urging countries to come back next year with really enhanced version ok so a glimmer of hope a road map interesting they should say that costs are down this is more feasible economically and for these politicians of course theres pressure from the streets so why is it still so difficult to make these Big Decisions and are there any countries that are more to blame here than others. Well if i can use that analogy its like our house is on fire we have a number of countries with small hoses this is the small and medium sized countries that have turned their hoses on the water hoses on full blast theyre trying to put out the fire but the ones who are really missing in action or even to destruction thats where the major emitters the ones that are most responsible. I think i think the challenge is what theyre doing is theyre standing around the house saying no you turn on your has 1st you do yours 1st so theyre arguing over these sorts of things what we have seen is that theres a little bit of a break through the European Union last week agreed that they would endorse going to net 0 emissions by 2015 and without endorsement they were able to step up canada has come forward with a similar commitment that has to go through parliament but and hoping that will actually enable them to step up so were starting to see some of the major emitters coming back to the table but to be frank a number of them were definitely not helpful in the discussions and you know to point to us. Some of the ones that really did not help move for ok you answered my question i was going to ask you to name names who are those big emitters that are not willing to come around the table thanks for that hell not for it in washington d. C. Thank you. And now to some of the other stories making news around the world thousands of lebanese protesters rallied outside the parliament in beirut and clashed with police theyre angry about a security crackdown theyre calling for a new independent head of government one an affiliated with established political parties. The bodies of at least 50 people have been unearthed from a mass grave at a farm in western mexico the site was discovered just over 3 weeks ago at a farm outside the city of guadalajara a region hard hit by violence linked to organized crime.

Hold on hold a new zealands white island rescue teams and protective gear landed where they believe one of the 2 remaining victims of the islands volcanic eruption could be found they were unsuccessful. Absolutely desperate to find bodies and return them to loved ones and tens of probability ideas we wish we were probably thinking given that one was in the water so i would tell you. That we were as hopeful as we do this for a reason we want to make sure that we bring the right expertise to be here with regard to the task of that expertise including 24. 00 person recovery teams toxic unstable conditions and air tanks allow the 2nd search on the island to last only 75 minutes the result was a setback but crews wont give up.

China trade war was set to escalate in a big way today instead the 2 sides have agreed to a partial truce sunday was the deadline for a new round of tariffs affecting hundreds of billions of dollars worth of products but u. S. President donald trump suspended his plan taxes on certain chinese imports and now china has said it will reciprocate many economists and investors welcome the partial cease fire but there are still Big Questions to be asked about whats being called phase one of a trade deal between the worlds 2 largest economies. William blue croft has more on this thanks for joining us william. What is the effect likely to be of this big deal i mean mostly right now its relief and a lot of wait and see often the most instant reaction we get for how investors are thinking about any potential changes in trade deals is the markets and friday we saw it was u. S. Markets or rather mixed they were unimpressed all the way told markets open on monday to see if this new announcement today from china has any big impact but everyone is pretty much on the same page that anytime theres a reduction in tariffs or in something in this case the removal of tariffs is only a good thing in a much longer path towards a more substantive trade deal between the u. S. And china well thats been next question theyre calling this phase one where does this fit into the overall picture how many faces whats happening i mean its unknown how many faces there might be in phase one is not even really set yet i mean its not even any announcement when its really going to be signed its just been agreed to so far maybe the end of january looking at for just this socalled phase one is not even really a trade deal with the unit. Well its really more of a Purchase Agreement in exchange for the us removing some tariffs and lowering some tariffs china agrees to buy more Agricultural Products and other products from the u. S. So its a long way to go on anything comprehensive between between the u. S. And china and also the u. S. Is big right Donald Trumps big gripe with china without it that china is overly subsidizing and really controlling its economy centrally which makes it really hard possible for us and companies all around the world to compete with with china that this socalled phase one doesnt address at all and how much does domestic politics in china but especially the United States play into this announcement and its timing of course its all about timing all about politics in china not so much politically but economically because their economy has been struggling has been sluggish and the tariffs have a lot to do with that the u. S. Side a lot of these tariffs have hurt traditional republican and trump areas especially in the farming in the ranching sector agribusiness has donated already in the 2020 campaign 730000 dollars to the Trump Campaign thats twice as much as the next closest democratic candidate receiving ag agribusiness donations and farmers want to see progress on trade in progress on competitiveness with china be able to go back to where they were before all these tariffs came in which was china as the 2nd largest market for Agricultural Products the United States now down to the 5th largest they want to see that either come back or at least see that that theyre what theyre hurting from as having some long term effect for their business and their farms ok and well just have to see as is often the case i think with the white house who really is really is what effects kind of a long way to go ok thanks for that study did these women know of their craft.
