Hello im terry Martin Thanks for joining us europe is being hit by an unprecedented heat wave temperatures are forecast to reach their highest level ever recorded in some countries today the extreme weather is expected to continue into the weekend governments have issued Health Warnings and are urging people to do everything they can to stay cool. Cuts. Keeping cool in whatever way possible people and animals across Continental Europe are feeling the heat of unusually high temperatures. Just drinking tried to go too far too slowly. Drink drink drink a lot. Of this hot sun we try and keep to the cooler places. We have been out looking at rome from 8 oclock this morning but from midday on were eating ice cream. Its very good we were able to. Meteorologist say the soaring temperatures a jew to hot air blowing in from north africa but many also call this heat wave unprecedented. In france or thirtys are taking extra precautions to care for the most vulnerable. The country is still scarred by the intense heat wave of 2003 in which almost 15000 people died. In the midst of the through this isnt stan mongering these heatwaves are going to keep happening as we know and perhaps theyll get worse in the years and decades to come because of Climate Change is asking everyone to take responsibility for themselves their family and their neighbors and to avoid a backlog in Emergency Rooms due to people taking unnecessary risks in the pews the history of. The haze was visible over paris on tuesday and pollution levels could rise further as the mercury crimes. In germany or thirtys in the state of brandenburg battling wildfires the area is a tinder box after prolonged hot and dry weather. Amid warnings across year at that midweek temperatures could break records staying cool remains top of the agenda. Well for more on how to cope with the heat wave were joined by professor hans question going up from the center for space medicine and extreme environments at the charlie to University Hospital here in berlin thanks for being with us this morning professor and were expecting temperatures of 40 degrees and more in some parts of europe that could be really uncomfortable but dangerous actually its for Healthy People its really uncomfortable but expression only for people right so diseases like kaante resco diseases or c o p b a chronic obstructive 9 diseases they are really in danger of being hurt by this heat wave and for normal people you as you say if youre healthy all month earlier than all the other 40 degrees they mean temperature also fall for Healthy People so all people have to be conscious of boxers heat wave and they have to drink enough they have thats my suggestion that they should wait each other in the morning and in the afternoon salute to see how much fluid they have lost probably so its the only way really to calculate whether you you have really dry rank enough during the day because otherwise its you dont know really how much you are sweating on of these hot conditions thats a good temp so weigh yourself in the morning in the evening even me and then the difference thats the facts just. So keep your body fluid up how else can we keep our body temperature regulated under these extreme conditions thats affected the point we we can only use one of these heat conditions the evaporation the it up racial sweating from the skin because the usual saying what we do is really increased. Blocked the fusion in the skin but this is not enough under this condition so the schlepping is the main way to get rid of the heat because when you are sweating the sweat is evaporated and during this process being coming from really put to a gas it takes away heat from the body and thats why you have to keep expressionless your fruitbat. Very close im so hydrate hydrate hydrate drink lots of water a lot too much but not too much thats why as well because its very difficult for people to calculate have arrived right and off they should wait and then they see whether thats enough on ok scientists are telling us that the earth is warming up and that these extreme heat in events these these heat waves could become more common do you think the human organism is capable of adapting. That depends on the reason actually for the moment in the subsaharan area for example the temperature for months too high to really to work of thats why people are migrating at that region and if the this heat is more expanded to other regions of the people who migrate there when you look in germany in the coastal areas they have 26 oks if you find but when you are going down to a bit of 5 oclock those germs fish or progress its extremely thats at the at the edge for them on 10 just a final question any other you mention people who have a particular diseases or some sort of Health Complications already there are particularly at risk anyone else who should be together especially in search of them children and children please do not leave them in the car when you are just going outside and just for having a short look at the storage so it sometimes is only need 15 minutes or half an hour that extremely hot conditions inside so children and elderly people they are most. Vulnerable. Good advice professor from berlins shelley tay hospital thank you very much for being with us this morning thank you. U. S. President Donald Trumps son in law jared kush now has appealed to posting ians to support a plan he says will revive the economy and improve their lives the proposals presented at a meeting in bahrain involve investing billions of dollars in the palestinian territories part of a peace plan which has been dubbed the deal of the century but the palestinians have already rejected the plans as they do not include a political resolution to the conflict. These were the scenes across gaza and the west bank as the bahrain conference got underway thousands of palestinians protested and staged a general strike against a plan they say attempts to buy them off. Thousands of miles away in bahrain jerod cushion or called on the palestinians to accept his vision one he dubbed the opportunity of the century if they want peace he said the 50000000000. 00 economic support plan would create a Brighter Future for the region. For a moment imagine a new reality in the middle east imagine a bustling commercial and Tourist Center and gaza and the west bank where International Businesses come together and thrive imagine the west bank as a blossoming economy full of entrepreneurs engineers scientists and Business Leaders of the Palestinian People but in the audience was no palestinian delegation they boycotted the meeting having rejected the plan from the start instead there were arab finance ministers and international Business Leaders the people the United States is soliciting to foot the bill questionnaire says his proposal could create a 1000000 new jobs and slash unemployment helping to bring peace to the middle east. But the palestinians insist there can be no economic solution without a political one. We are here also to send a message that we will not be deceived by the socalled economy plan that it can be annoying going to mix solution as a substitute god freedom and 2nd how can we have Economic Development when we cannot control our borders our imports our exported our free market our freedom of movement i washington says the political portion of the plan will follow but until then palestinians say cush news proposal is meaningless here in the west Bank Palestinians burned an empty casket it reads deal of the century born dead. Our correspondent oversell it is covering developments from washington he has more details on christians proposals and how stony and objections jared kirshners plans come as a radical change for the middle east Peace Process no 2 state solution but 1 instead lots of money essential and silencing the palestinians for a prospect of wealth and development the plan sounds reasonable 50000000000. 00 in direct investments a 1000000 new jobs within the next 10 years for an area that is suffering from unemployment rates of above 50 percent but there are questions to be answered as well number one who is going to pay for all that and without their own state palestinians feel as 2nd class citizens so for them the proposal comes as a no starter from the very beginning. Now is take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today former u. S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller has agreed to testify to public hearings in Congress Next month while the lead the investigation into Russian Election meddling and details numerous occasions when u. S. President may have obstructed justice previously declined faced public questioning over his report between the russian government in yemen theres been heavy fighting between progovernment forces and who the rebels in the southwestern city of tire Officials Say at least 16 rebels died in the bidens villages and residential neighborhoods in the area have been badly damaged the United Nations has called yemens 5 years civil war the worlds worst humanitarian crisis. Migrants aboard a dutch flagged german rescue ship have appealed to italian authorities to let them disembark after 2 weeks circling the island of lampedusa in a video message they said the situation for the 43 migrants had become unbearable italys government says the ship should travel to germany or the netherlands instead 3 other Nations Office on drugs and crime has just released its 2900 world drug report the annual Study Analyzes trends in drug use and abuse looking at supply and demand for opiates cocaine cannabis and found a means and new psychoactive substances the biggest takeaway from the report is the global scale of the problem some 35000000. 00 people around the world suffer from Substance Abuse thats 4 and a half 1000000 more than predicted. Well the u. N. Experts say much of that rise was due to spikes in india and nigeria both carried out new surveys providing more Accurate Information on drug dependency in those countries well the report also showed that the global manufacture of cocaine has reached an all time high much for coming from south america its up around 25 percent authorities seized more of the drug than ever before meanwhile north america is Opioid Crisis shows no sign of improving record numbers of Overdose Deaths from drugs like fentanyl were reported in both the United States and canada the world drug report also revealed that cannabis is still the most widely used illicit drug worldwide in 2016 around 188000000 people reported having used it in some form that number is expected to rise and keep rising as it loses its illicit status with increasing states and countries legalizing the drug abuse science correspondent Derek Williams is with us here to talk us through the report morning barry so the u. N. Says theres been a 15 percent jump in people who need treatment for drug abuse thats nearly 5000000 more addicts whats behind the surge most a lot of this is just a question of bookkeeping to a certain extent statistically you would expect the numbers to go to go up because of course the worlds population is growing so the number of people who are going to be addicted to drugs is going to be growing. In lockstep with that to a certain extent but some of it is simply bookkeeping and india nigeria in particular which you mentioned just in the run up to this talk theres theres just been better bookkeeping methods have been initiated so the whole drugs trade is by its very definition a grey zone its very difficult to get information cartels and addicts are not going to provide information on how much theyve imported or how much theyve. Old but but there are ways to get to better data and thats whats happened in nigeria in particular which has caused this of a sudden spike theres another number that jumps out of this report a 56 percent 56 percent surge in opioid use is that a problem with opioid use is it limited mainly to wealthy countries the socalled global north or is it a problem in developing countries to emerge and when youre talking about opioids there are several different compounds that youre talking about some of them are naturally occurring compounds for example in compounds that are isolated from the poppy plant that are used to make opium and heroin and interestingly in this report numbers of the amount of heroin has actually dropped due to a drought in afghanistan which is the primary producer of of those compounds synthetic opioids on the other hand substances like fans and now which weve anybody who works in the media has been hearing about this Opioid Crisis in america for for years and years theyve gone theyve shot through the roof more than 50000 deaths due to overdose and 2017 in north america alone but what were hearing less about prescription and much of the prescription originally these are also medications and but but what were hearing what weve heard less about almost nothing about actually is and is this impending crisis in africa where the substance called tramadol now child under going to give you a couple of numbers here less than 10 kilograms of this of this synthetic opioid were seized in 201125 tons of it were seized in 2017 it makes you wonder how much of it actually got through almost 5 percent of nigerias population said they took it for non medical purposes last year so this is this is not a crisis thats impending this is a crisis thats actually already going on in africa pretty much an epidemic the way its very serious indeed derek thank you very much for filling us in d. W. Science correspondent derrick williams. Reports are coming in here in germany that are suspected right wing extremist has confessed to the recent killing of jordan politician bought a look also she was shot dead at close range of his home in the western town of costal earlier this month the suspect named only as stefan he was arrested a few weeks ago a few weeks after the the attack rather the killing raised concerns about threats to other public figures we visited the south western tel of hall where a politician of yano version has been facing rightwing threats for years.
