WEBVTT 00:00:11.360 --> 00:00:13.350 What's up, sunshine? Let's rise up this 00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:15.749 Tuesday, October 6. I'm Koi Wire. Today 00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:18.070 is National Coaches Day. Did you know 00:00:18.080 --> 00:00:19.830 one of my favorite coaches had a 00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:21.750 profound impact on my life? The late 00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:24.070 great Bob Craig, wrestling and football 00:00:24.080 --> 00:00:26.310 coach at Cedarcliffe High School in Camp 00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:28.470 Hill, PA. Coach had a poem on the back 00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:30.470 of his business cards that said, "You 00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:31.910 may fool the whole world down the 00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:33.590 pathway of years and get pats on the 00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:35.750 back as you pass, but your only reward 00:00:35.760 --> 00:00:37.430 will be heartache and tears if you 00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:39.350 cheated the man in the glass. Be sure to 00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:41.190 give a shout out, fist bump, high five, 00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:43.750 or hug to your coach in your life today. 00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:45.670 Let them know you appreciate them. Now, 00:00:45.680 --> 00:00:47.830 let's get you your news. The US Supreme 00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:50.150 Court is officially back in session, and 00:00:50.160 --> 00:00:52.389 its new 9-month term started with a big 00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:55.270 one, climate change. The justices heard 00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:57.029 oral arguments involving a lawsuit 00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:00.069 brought by Boulder, Colorado, the city, 00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:03.029 against Exxon Mobile and Suncor Energy. 00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:04.950 The city actually brought the lawsuit 00:01:04.960 --> 00:01:07.109 nearly a decade ago, arguing the 00:01:07.119 --> 00:01:08.870 companies contributed to climate change 00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:11.109 and misled the public about the effects 00:01:11.119 --> 00:01:14.149 of fossil fuels. The oil giants deny any 00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:15.990 wrongdoing and argue Boulder is 00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:17.270 essentially trying to regulate 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:19.590 greenhouse gas emissions through state 00:01:19.600 --> 00:01:21.670 law, something they say should fall 00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.230 under federal authority instead. So, 00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:25.749 here's the big question before the 00:01:25.759 --> 00:01:28.630 Supreme Court. Can Boulder's claims even 00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:31.350 proceed to a trial? This goes far beyond 00:01:31.360 --> 00:01:33.270 Boulder, though. The decision from the 00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:35.510 high court will no doubt impact dozens 00:01:35.520 --> 00:01:37.830 of similar lawsuits nationwide seeking 00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:40.390 billions of dollars in damages. Justice 00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:43.429 Samuel Alo is not participating in this 00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:45.510 case. That's what's called recusal when 00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:47.830 a judge or justice steps aside from 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.310 considering a case. Alto hasn't given a 00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:52.149 reason, but he later told Bloomberg News 00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:54.389 that he felt it was quote prudent to 00:01:54.399 --> 00:01:56.870 step away given his holdings in energy 00:01:56.880 --> 00:01:59.030 stocks. Beyond this blockbuster, the 00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:01.109 justices this term are set to take up 00:02:01.119 --> 00:02:02.709 other important cases, including 00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:04.870 decisions on semi-automatic weapons, 00:02:04.880 --> 00:02:06.789 voter ID laws, and the president's 00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:09.190 immigration policies. Now to Europe 00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:11.110 where people are taking a stance trying 00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:12.869 to create positive change in an 00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.790 environment that they believe needs to 00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.190 be better. First in France where more 00:02:17.200 --> 00:02:19.190 than 400 schools remain fully or 00:02:19.200 --> 00:02:21.510 partially closed Monday following days 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:24.229 of demonstrations led by students. They 00:02:24.239 --> 00:02:26.710 say they are frustrated by overcrowded 00:02:26.720 --> 00:02:28.630 classrooms, teacher shortages, and 00:02:28.640 --> 00:02:31.110 school buildings they say are unsafe or 00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:33.350 falling apart. Some teachers have joined 00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:36.869 the students in their calls for reform. 00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:37.750 legitimate. 00:02:37.760 --> 00:02:39.990 >> So, it is entirely legitimate and normal 00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:41.830 for them to have demands. And the fact 00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:43.509 that things get out of hand, the fact 00:02:43.519 --> 00:02:45.430 that there's violence is not the fault 00:02:45.440 --> 00:02:47.270 of the students or the high school 00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.190 students. It's too easy to level 00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:51.350 accusations or say that high school or 00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:52.949 university students are being 00:02:52.959 --> 00:02:55.030 manipulated. It is in fact social 00:02:55.040 --> 00:02:56.790 realities that are causing things to 00:02:56.800 --> 00:02:59.270 spiral out of control. Unfortunately, we 00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:01.509 would really like things to calm down. 00:03:01.519 --> 00:03:02.949 >> While many of the protests have been 00:03:02.959 --> 00:03:04.949 peaceful, some became unsafe. 00:03:04.959 --> 00:03:06.550 Authorities say schools and other 00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:08.470 property have been damaged and police 00:03:08.480 --> 00:03:10.309 officers have been attacked. Rights 00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:12.149 groups and students, meanwhile, have 00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:14.470 accused police of using excessive force, 00:03:14.480 --> 00:03:16.550 including batons and tear gas to 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:18.470 disperse crowds. The French government 00:03:18.480 --> 00:03:20.790 disputes that characterization, saying 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:22.149 police have intervened when 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.550 demonstrations became violent. Thousands 00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:26.470 of people have been arrested, many of 00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:28.630 them minors. Student representatives met 00:03:28.640 --> 00:03:30.470 with France's education minister, but 00:03:30.480 --> 00:03:32.149 say they still haven't received the 00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:33.910 changes they are seeking. So the 00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:36.070 challenge now, can students, teachers, 00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:37.910 and government leaders turn a volatile 00:03:37.920 --> 00:03:40.149 confrontation into an actual 00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:42.390 conversation? Because improving schools 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:43.910 requires more than making noise. 00:03:43.920 --> 00:03:45.750 Eventually, people have to find 00:03:45.760 --> 00:03:48.149 solutions. Meanwhile, neighboring Spain 00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:50.309 is facing a very different crisis. 00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:52.789 Housing. Think rents rising faster than 00:03:52.799 --> 00:03:55.430 many salaries, too few affordable homes, 00:03:55.440 --> 00:03:57.190 and some families struggling to stay in 00:03:57.200 --> 00:03:58.630 neighborhoods where they've lived for 00:03:58.640 --> 00:04:00.470 years. And now it's triggering a 00:04:00.480 --> 00:04:02.149 national election. Spanish Prime 00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:05.030 Minister Pedro Sanchez has called a snap 00:04:05.040 --> 00:04:07.509 election for November 29th, ending the 00:04:07.519 --> 00:04:09.509 current parliament's term more than six 00:04:09.519 --> 00:04:11.750 months early. He announced the move just 00:04:11.760 --> 00:04:13.910 3 days after the governing body rejected 00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:16.710 a package of emergency measures aimed at 00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:18.069 tackling the nation's housing 00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:21.030 affordability crisis. 00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:23.590 >> You, the people of Spain, must decide 00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:25.350 what role you wish to play in it and 00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:27.830 also what role you want Spain to play in 00:04:27.840 --> 00:04:30.150 it. In recent weeks, hundreds of 00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:31.830 thousands of Spaniards took to the 00:04:31.840 --> 00:04:34.230 streets to demand lower rents, an end to 00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:36.870 evictions, stronger tenant protections, 00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:39.030 and a ban on big investors buying up 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:40.870 residential property. Hundreds of 00:04:40.880 --> 00:04:42.790 demonstrators camped out in Madrid's 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:45.189 Puerto del Soul to protest the eviction 00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:47.590 of an 87year-old woman who has become a 00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:49.749 symbol of the crisis. Now, supporters 00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:51.350 and critics of the current government 00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:53.430 alike have an early chance to choose 00:04:53.440 --> 00:04:56.710 their country's future. 00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:58.629 Pop quiz hot shot. Where can you find 00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:01.030 the world's tallest sea cliffs? Norway, 00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:09.749 Peru, Hawaii, or South Africa? 00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:11.909 If you said Hawaii, you're the pineapple 00:05:11.919 --> 00:05:14.390 of my eye. The Machai Sea Cliffs are the 00:05:14.400 --> 00:05:18.070 world's tallest rising, nearly 3,900 00:05:18.080 --> 00:05:20.150 ft above the Pacific Ocean. That's more 00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:22.790 than three times as tall as the Empire 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:25.350 State Building. One of Hawaii's most 00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:27.510 recognizable natural landmarks is 00:05:27.520 --> 00:05:29.830 suddenly gone, collapsed into the 00:05:29.840 --> 00:05:33.270 Pacific Ocean. The Hle Sea Arch towered 00:05:33.280 --> 00:05:35.350 about 90 ft above the Pacific in 00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:37.430 Hawaii's volcanoes National Park. For 00:05:37.440 --> 00:05:40.550 more than 500 years, waves carved away 00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:43.189 at cliffs created by ancient lava flows, 00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:45.110 eventually sculpting this enormous 00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:47.909 natural bridge. Officials at Volcano's 00:05:47.919 --> 00:05:49.510 National Park say the structure was 00:05:49.520 --> 00:05:51.749 still standing when the doors closed to 00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:53.990 the park September 23rd for tropical 00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:56.310 storm Nolo. But when they reopened a few 00:05:56.320 --> 00:05:58.469 days later, the arch was nowhere to be 00:05:58.479 --> 00:06:00.950 seen. The National Park Service has said 00:06:00.960 --> 00:06:03.670 the historical arch always had a limited 00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:05.990 lifespan and that the absence will give 00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:08.150 way for other natural marvels to be 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:09.990 formed. So essentially, nature is still 00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:13.270 building just really slowly. And from 00:06:13.280 --> 00:06:16.070 losing land to making some. Would you 00:06:16.080 --> 00:06:18.390 ever walk on glass to help keep a beach 00:06:18.400 --> 00:06:21.029 sandy? Hear me out. A team in Miami Dade 00:06:21.039 --> 00:06:22.950 County has just developed an innovative 00:06:22.960 --> 00:06:25.350 strategy to use the glass bottles we 00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:27.510 toss out to battle another problem, 00:06:27.520 --> 00:06:30.070 coastal erosion, or the loss of sand in 00:06:30.080 --> 00:06:32.469 their beaches. Their idea, crush 00:06:32.479 --> 00:06:34.790 discarded glass until it's tiny enough, 00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:37.189 smooth enough, and safe enough to behave 00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:39.350 like sand. That's some glass half full 00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:42.870 thinking. Take a look. Crashing waves, 00:06:42.880 --> 00:06:45.029 king tides eating away at our South 00:06:45.039 --> 00:06:46.790 Florida beaches. This group of 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:48.710 scientists and volunteers think they may 00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:49.670 have a solution. 00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:51.830 >> Miami Dade has a waste problem and an 00:06:51.840 --> 00:06:52.629 erosion problem. 00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:54.870 >> Miami Dade County residents generate 5 00:06:54.880 --> 00:06:57.270 million tons of garbage each year. So do 00:06:57.280 --> 00:06:59.350 Broward County residents. And in all 00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:02.390 those piles of trash, tons of recyclable 00:07:02.400 --> 00:07:03.510 glass bottles. 00:07:03.520 --> 00:07:05.350 >> There's a lot of glass. The opportunity 00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:07.670 is enormous. The sustainable startup 00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:09.909 Glass for Life partnered with the Frost 00:07:09.919 --> 00:07:12.629 Science Museum and Compost for Life on a 00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:14.070 series of experiments. 00:07:14.080 --> 00:07:16.390 >> We're using glass waste, but we are also 00:07:16.400 --> 00:07:18.710 using food waste. The compost is food 00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:21.510 waste and half of our trash is food 00:07:21.520 --> 00:07:23.270 waste. 00:07:23.280 --> 00:07:25.430 >> They ground up recycled glass bottles to 00:07:25.440 --> 00:07:28.390 make glass sand. In the first phase of 00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:30.629 the experiment, they compared sand oats 00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.670 grown in regular sand, glass sand, and a 00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:36.150 mixture of the glass sand and compost. 00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:38.309 >> Adding the compost, we had significantly 00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:40.150 higher survivorship of our plants. 00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:42.790 Plants grew between 12 to 25 times 00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:44.629 greater than the plants that grew in the 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:45.430 native sand. 00:07:45.440 --> 00:07:47.830 >> Now, the real life test is underway on 00:07:47.840 --> 00:07:50.230 historic Virginia Key. They are planting 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:52.309 hundreds of sea oats and will measure 00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.629 the results in just three months. If 00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:56.710 this glass can grow sea oats at a 00:07:56.720 --> 00:07:58.469 reasonable rate and it can actually 00:07:58.479 --> 00:08:01.589 serve as a replacement for regular sand. 00:08:01.599 --> 00:08:03.029 >> And it could start with the glass 00:08:03.039 --> 00:08:11.029 bottles we all throw away. 00:08:11.039 --> 00:08:13.110 >> Today's story getting a 10 out of 10. It 00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:16.070 is on like Donkey Kong. Gamers from all 00:08:16.080 --> 00:08:18.469 over the country flock to Vortex Arcade 00:08:18.479 --> 00:08:21.270 in Sherwood, Arkansas for the Kong Clash 00:08:21.280 --> 00:08:23.350 16 tournament. Players try to get the 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:25.110 highest score possible before the end of 00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:27.430 the infamous final level 22 in the 00:08:27.440 --> 00:08:29.589 original Donkey Kong game.
