hello sunshine hope you had an awesome
weekend pumped to be right here with you
there's no mum like momentum so let's
get our energy up up up and start this
week off strong I'm Coy wire this is CNN
10 and we start today with an update on
the latest news on the situation in
Israel and Gaza conditions in Gaza have
deteriorated on Friday Israel's military
dropped leaflets on gaza's largest city
urging roughly 1 million residents to
move South for their own safety many
people there have since been trying to
flee ahead of an expected ground
Invasion but over the weekend that's
proven to be exceedingly difficult we'll
hear more now about the current
situation and I do want to warn you that
some of the material we're about to see
might be tough to
watch dozens of Palestinians dig through
Rubble
desperately searching for survivors in
the aftermath of an air strike more than
half of gaza's 2 million residents who
live in the Northern section of the
strip were told to evacuate ahead of an
anticipated Israeli ground assault on
Hamas but leaving is also deadly an
apparent explosion Friday along a main
evacuation route killed a number of
people including children the IDF says
Hamas was responsible it appears that
they have physically prevented people
from moving from north to south and also
it appears that they have booby trapped
some of the
roads even emergency crews are not safe
from the constant
barrage hospitals in the area already
struggling are now overwhelmed we
considered it a humanitarian chronic
emergency over many many years and now
it's a complete catastrophe there are
major gaps in Food Water Shelter
Sanitation people now are being forced
into these unsanitary overcrowded
settings uh risks of disease
outbreaks lack of electricity along with
food and water shortages in both the
northern and southern parts of Gaza are
becoming very real
concerns I am searching here under the
rubble for the remains of lentils and
rice many who have taken refuge in a un
run School sleep on the ground and try
to comfort their
families it's a tragedy there's no water
no electricity and I have no money I'm
standing here and hungry wondering
what's
left Palestinians who hold foreign
passports are also in Dire Straits the
only remaining route out of Gaza is
through Egypt Egypt's foreign minister
says the crossing is open but the roads
are so damaged they are impassible even
for humanitarian
Aid up next the folks in charge of the
shipping industry have promised to cut
down on their earthw Waring emissions
and go carbon neutral by the year 2050
now too much CO2 in the atmosphere is
bad and that it can supercharge the
Earth's natural greenhouse effect
warming the planet so going carbon
neutral means the shipping industry
plans to take steps to remove the
equivalent amount of carbon dioxide from
the atmosphere to what it's emitted
through their activities of their
business to do this they're looking at
using cleaner fuels like electric and
wind power as oppos to burning fossil
fuels so many of the things we use in
our daily lives are shipped across the
ocean we gone from rowing to sail to
sail to steam steam to the oil sector
and now we're moving to a new transition
bells and whistles that can be put on
ships we also now have wind Assist
Technology our top priority right now
must be the transition to the new zero
emission fuels and
Technologies if you look around your
home the clothes that you're wearing the
food that you put on the table almost
all of that has come across the ocean
and at any given time there are as many
as 50,000 large cargo vessels traversing
the high seas in terms of the global Pie
as we call it for carbon emissions
Maritime is only responsible for about
3% which sounds like a small number but
is actually if it were a nation it would
be equivalent to a major G7 economy like
Japan or Germany and unfortunately under
business as usual those emission are
predicted to at least double by
2050 decarbonizing the shipping sector
can have great benefits Beyond just
reducing carbon emissions reductions in
local Air Pollution lots of new jobs
producing these new fuels we also have
the potential to address other issues
like ocean noise
pollution we need to look urgently at
the efficiency savings that can be made
whether it's wind propulsion whether
it's bubbles on ships whole design even
operating procedures and these have
multiple benefits of course these new
wind propelled ships are different than
the olden days and there's a lot of
innovation happening in this space there
are going to be some challenges because
ports may need to make some changes to
be able to accept these vessels uh as
they come into Port it'll be interesting
to see about maintenance making sure
that these Technologies are safe but all
of these challenges are surmountable
even if we did all of that we would only
be able to reduce emissions by about
50% shipping has benefited for a very
long time from its ability to use very
inexpensive residual fuels that are
essentially what's left over after oil
has been refined for other purposes so
it's very polluting the biggest issue is
availability of zero emission fuels
there aren't any on the market at scale
and what there are are very small
amounts requiring an aw aul lot of
electricity and the price is
astronomical at the moment most
commentators predict that in the future
we'll have a mix of different fuels as
we look to the Future some people
believe that ammonia will actually be a
really important scalable fuel that can
actually significantly come down in cost
as we gain scale if we can address the
safety concerns in the meantime methanol
is being deployed already now in very
very small quantities and then in the
longer run we'll probably see electri if
a we'll see the use of fuel cells and
perhaps some approaches that we haven't
even come up with yet 10c trivia how old
was the asteroid NASA collected material
from back in September 450,000 years old
42 million years old 4 and2 billion
years old or 4 and 1/2 trillion years
old if you said 4 and 1/2 billion years
old with a B you are correct that's how
old the asteroid benu is estimated to be
asteroids are on NASA's mind Big Time
NASA's Falcon heavy rocket lifted off
Friday from the Kennedy Space Center in
Florida for a colossal journey of 2.2
billion miles or 3.6 billion kilometers
this mission is scheduled to happen over
the next six years in the ultimate
destination a metal Rich asteroid called
16 psyche which orbits around the Sun
between Mars and Jupiter 5 4 3 2 1
engine
ignition and a NASA spacecraft named
Psyche embarking on a 2.2 billion mile
Journey that's 3.6 billion kilm over the
next 6 years the destination a metal
Rich asteroid named 16 psyche that
orbits the sun between Mars and Jupiter
the asteroid whose diameter is roughly
the length of Massachusetts will be the
first metal space object that humans
have ever visited scientists
hypothesized that psyche was formed
formed when a rocky planet lost its
surface after colliding with other
bodies exposing the metallic
core one could almost call psyche's
mission A Journey to the Center of the
Earth even though it's in outer space
since humans can't drill a path to
Earth's core asteroids like psyche may
be our only chance to visit something
like it so we're going to learn about
when we get to psyche a previously
unstudied ingredient that went into
making our habitable Earth and that is
the metal that is now in the Earth's
core and the core
of all of the rocky planets cores that
we can never visit uh but cores that we
want to learn about the psychi
spacecraft is expected to reach the
asteroid in 2029 and during its six-year
Journey it'll first cruise through
interplanetary space for several years
then slingshot from Mars into the
asteroid belt before arriving at psyche
it'll then orbit the asteroid for more
than 2 years taking images mapping and
studying the metallic
object
for today's story getting a 10 out of 10
let's give them pumpkin to talk about
Steve coony from Lebanon Missouri just
set the record for longest voyage by a
pumpkin vessel by floating in this
massive 1200lb pumpkin a whopping 39
miles on the Missouri River the previous
record was 375 miles Cooney had to
hollow out enough of the pumpkin to be
able to squeeze into it in the kneeling
position with his legs folded under him
let the gourd times roll this journey
lasted nearly 11 hours that's what I'm
talking about my gorgeous people today's
special shout out goes to Mr Britain
social studies class in snoww me Middle
School in Washington rise up thanks for
subscribing and commenting on our
YouTube page for your shout out on my
pumpkins I'll patch you later people I'm
quy wire and we are CNN
