WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:11.599 [Music] 00:11.599 --> 00:13.200 What's up, sunshine? Hope you're having 00:13.200 --> 00:15.120 a terrific Tuesday. I'm Koi Wire with 00:15.120 --> 00:16.960 your 10 minutes of news. Now, today's 00:16.960 --> 00:18.800 election day in some states. There are 00:18.800 --> 00:21.600 big races for governor in Virginia. A 00:21.600 --> 00:23.439 lot of people paying close attention to 00:23.439 --> 00:25.680 the mayor's race in New York City. Those 00:25.680 --> 00:27.760 of you who have a virtual learning day, 00:27.760 --> 00:29.199 thank you for joining us and watching 00:29.199 --> 00:31.119 from home. All right, let's get you your 00:31.119 --> 00:33.600 news. We begin in Afghanistan where a 00:33.600 --> 00:35.440 massive search and rescue operation is 00:35.440 --> 00:37.760 underway following a deadly earthquake 00:37.760 --> 00:39.760 in the country's northern region. The 00:39.760 --> 00:42.800 powerful 6.3 magnitude quake hit early 00:42.800 --> 00:45.680 Monday morning near Mazari Sharif, one 00:45.680 --> 00:47.680 of the most populated cities in that 00:47.680 --> 00:49.680 part of the country. As of this taping, 00:49.680 --> 00:51.520 government officials say at least 20 00:51.520 --> 00:53.440 people have been killed and hundreds 00:53.440 --> 00:55.680 more have been injured. But they expect 00:55.680 --> 00:57.600 those numbers to rise as recovery 00:57.600 --> 01:00.160 efforts continue. The powerful quake was 01:00.160 --> 01:02.320 felt in three neighboring countries and 01:02.320 --> 01:05.439 briefly closed a key passageway outside 01:05.439 --> 01:08.000 the capital of Cababell. It also damaged 01:08.000 --> 01:09.840 the iconic Blue Mosque, one of 01:09.840 --> 01:12.000 Afghanistan's architectural treasures 01:12.000 --> 01:14.640 and a holy site of annual pilgrimage. 01:14.640 --> 01:16.720 Afghanistan has endured a series of 01:16.720 --> 01:18.479 catastrophic earthquakes in recent 01:18.479 --> 01:21.200 years. Just over two months ago, a 6.0 0 01:21.200 --> 01:23.680 magnitude quake killed more than 2,200 01:23.680 --> 01:26.240 people in the country's eastern region. 01:26.240 --> 01:28.159 Afghanistan lies at the collision 01:28.159 --> 01:30.880 boundary of two huge tectonic plates. 01:30.880 --> 01:33.040 The Indian plate which moves northward 01:33.040 --> 01:35.040 and the Eurasian plate which has been 01:35.040 --> 01:37.840 mostly stable. 01:37.840 --> 01:40.320 Pop quiz hot shot. The Adriatic Sea is 01:40.320 --> 01:42.720 known for its unusually high what 01:42.720 --> 01:45.280 compared to most seas. Salinity or salt 01:45.280 --> 01:50.439 content, clarity, tides or depth. 01:51.280 --> 01:53.680 If you said clarity, clearly you know 01:53.680 --> 01:55.840 your stuff. Unlike most seas which are 01:55.840 --> 01:58.240 bordered by muddy river deltas, much of 01:58.240 --> 02:00.399 the Adriatic coastline is rocky and 02:00.399 --> 02:02.880 limestone based. This means less soil 02:02.880 --> 02:04.640 erosion and sediment runoff, so the 02:04.640 --> 02:07.830 water stays clear. 02:07.830 --> 02:12.319 [Music] 02:12.319 --> 02:14.319 The Adriatic Sea is home to one of the 02:14.319 --> 02:16.319 world's most diverse populations of 02:16.319 --> 02:19.120 aquatic wildlife. The picturesque sea, 02:19.120 --> 02:21.120 which lies between Italy and the Balkans 02:21.120 --> 02:23.040 in Eastern Europe, is home to more than 02:23.040 --> 02:26.879 7,000 native species. But over fishing, 02:26.879 --> 02:28.959 pollution, and habitat loss are putting 02:28.959 --> 02:31.040 some of its most unique species of 02:31.040 --> 02:33.519 sharks and rays at risk. Let's learn 02:33.519 --> 02:35.360 about a research group that's trying to 02:35.360 --> 02:37.440 change that in today's call to Earth. 02:37.440 --> 02:39.440 They're using cutting edge technology to 02:39.440 --> 02:41.920 help save the unique deep sea dwellers 02:41.920 --> 02:45.879 in the Adriatic Sea. 02:46.959 --> 02:49.280 It's pitch black and choppy beneath the 02:49.280 --> 02:52.080 Adriatic Sea at night with only the moon 02:52.080 --> 02:54.480 above and a flashlight below to guide 02:54.480 --> 02:56.959 the way. 02:56.959 --> 02:59.040 But these are ideal diving conditions 02:59.040 --> 03:01.840 for Bosnian marine biologist Andre Gajge 03:01.840 --> 03:04.159 who searches for sharks who come to life 03:04.159 --> 03:07.200 after dark. 03:07.200 --> 03:09.360 >> I think the biggest misconception is 03:09.360 --> 03:11.200 these are some kind of men eating 03:11.200 --> 03:13.280 bloodthirsty machines. The majority of 03:13.280 --> 03:15.599 the species grow less than a meter. They 03:15.599 --> 03:18.560 are small. They are terrified of humans. 03:18.560 --> 03:20.640 The more time I spend diving, I actually 03:20.640 --> 03:23.040 realize how fragile they are. My team 03:23.040 --> 03:25.040 and I decided to come here to conduct 03:25.040 --> 03:26.959 systematic research about the number of 03:26.959 --> 03:29.120 individuals, diversity of the species, 03:29.120 --> 03:30.879 and their key habitats in this area 03:30.879 --> 03:33.599 before it's too late. 03:33.599 --> 03:36.720 >> Andre runs Shark Lab Adria, a research 03:36.720 --> 03:38.640 group in Albania working to protect some 03:38.640 --> 03:40.319 of the Mediterranean's most vulnerable 03:40.319 --> 03:42.959 marine life. from documenting rare 03:42.959 --> 03:45.280 sharks to investigating causes of 03:45.280 --> 03:46.799 disease and death. 03:46.799 --> 03:48.480 >> Majority of my career are dedicated 03:48.480 --> 03:50.480 studying the deep sea and there's 03:50.480 --> 03:53.200 angular rough shark that is particularly 03:53.200 --> 03:55.200 important for me diving with the rough 03:55.200 --> 03:58.319 sharks. It's like I meet some dinosaur 03:58.319 --> 04:00.080 from Jurassic or whatever. It's a 04:00.080 --> 04:01.599 critically dangerous species we try to 04:01.599 --> 04:04.000 protect like for past 10 years as well 04:04.000 --> 04:06.159 as the spiny butterfly rays. Our team 04:06.159 --> 04:08.720 has rediscovered the population after no 04:08.720 --> 04:10.560 records in this century in the region. 04:10.560 --> 04:12.879 >> 2.5. 04:12.879 --> 04:15.439 >> His team spends about 160 days in the 04:15.439 --> 04:17.840 field each year assessing marine animal 04:17.840 --> 04:19.680 health, behavior, environmental 04:19.680 --> 04:22.240 exposure, and more. 04:22.240 --> 04:23.680 >> We now trying to understand the 04:23.680 --> 04:25.440 population better, the threats, and what 04:25.440 --> 04:28.000 we can do to mitigate. The fisheries is 04:28.000 --> 04:29.600 definitely one of the worst. There's 04:29.600 --> 04:31.520 also pollution. There's also habitat 04:31.520 --> 04:35.360 loss. Climate change is terrible issue. 04:35.360 --> 04:37.440 After his night dive concludes at 2 04:37.440 --> 04:39.919 a.m., Andre is swapping his scuba gear 04:39.919 --> 04:42.400 for his lab scrubs. He will work through 04:42.400 --> 04:44.880 the night with his team, analyzing by 04:44.880 --> 04:47.440 catch donated by a local fishery just 04:47.440 --> 04:48.720 hours earlier. 04:48.720 --> 04:50.720 >> This is the small juvenile. 04:50.720 --> 04:52.960 >> We process a large amount of samples 04:52.960 --> 04:54.720 unfortunately that are always retrieved 04:54.720 --> 04:56.639 dead by the trollers. Without their 04:56.639 --> 04:58.960 support, we won't be able to actually do 04:58.960 --> 05:01.919 this scientific research. 05:01.919 --> 05:04.639 Shark Lab Adria also runs an on-site 05:04.639 --> 05:07.039 rehabilitation program where marine life 05:07.039 --> 05:09.120 are cared for and monitored before being 05:09.120 --> 05:12.080 released back into the wild. 05:12.080 --> 05:13.600 >> We have a lot of sharks case and race 05:13.600 --> 05:15.120 coming to rehabilitation after being 05:15.120 --> 05:17.120 landed or retrieved alive and most 05:17.120 --> 05:19.440 commonly we work with severe traumatical 05:19.440 --> 05:21.919 fractures caused by the poor handling 05:21.919 --> 05:25.039 and the hooking. Alongside his research, 05:25.039 --> 05:27.840 Andre works aboard commercial trollwers, 05:27.840 --> 05:29.759 collecting data on bike catch and 05:29.759 --> 05:31.840 teaching fishermen how to safely return 05:31.840 --> 05:33.280 live animals to the sea. 05:33.280 --> 05:35.440 >> Being on the trollers, it's very eye 05:35.440 --> 05:37.600 opening moment. You see the reality and 05:37.600 --> 05:40.000 this is why I tend to call our work 05:40.000 --> 05:41.280 being at the front lines of 05:41.280 --> 05:43.600 conservation. I think uh over the past 05:43.600 --> 05:46.080 few decades we somehow split from the 05:46.080 --> 05:48.479 nature and I think this is the right 05:48.479 --> 05:50.639 time to take the responsibility for what 05:50.639 --> 05:54.270 we are doing to our home. 05:54.270 --> 06:00.149 [Music] 06:00.800 --> 06:03.680 Call to Earth Day 2025 is this Thursday, 06:03.680 --> 06:05.840 November 6th, where we are embracing the 06:05.840 --> 06:08.479 theme guard your green space and urging 06:08.479 --> 06:10.080 individuals like yourselves, 06:10.080 --> 06:12.319 communities, nations to take bold 06:12.319 --> 06:14.160 collective action to protect the natural 06:14.160 --> 06:16.560 world that sustains us. Sign up at 06:16.560 --> 06:19.120 cnn.com/calltoearthday 06:19.120 --> 06:21.360 and share how you are guarding your 06:21.360 --> 06:24.319 green space. Have some sports news for 06:24.319 --> 06:26.160 you today. I had a chance to catch up 06:26.160 --> 06:28.479 with the newly crowned NASCAR Cup Series 06:28.479 --> 06:30.639 champ Kyle Larson who just won the 06:30.639 --> 06:32.319 season finale over the weekend in 06:32.319 --> 06:34.560 Phoenix. He's used to driving really 06:34.560 --> 06:36.479 fast, right? So, I had some really fast 06:36.479 --> 06:38.080 rapid fire questions for the now 06:38.080 --> 06:40.720 two-time Cup Series champ. Hey, I'm 06:40.720 --> 06:43.039 twotime NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle 06:43.039 --> 06:45.840 Larson and you're watching CNN 10. 06:45.840 --> 06:47.919 >> What's it like driving around off the 06:47.919 --> 06:50.400 track? Is is it torture to drive the 06:50.400 --> 06:52.800 speed limit as a NASCAR champion? 06:52.800 --> 06:55.039 >> It's not. That's a that's a very 06:55.039 --> 06:56.720 frequent question that we get as 06:56.720 --> 06:59.599 drivers. And to me, um, a lot of times 06:59.599 --> 07:01.280 the interstate can feel just as fast as 07:01.280 --> 07:02.880 the track because you'll have people 07:02.880 --> 07:04.800 going a lot, you know, different speeds. 07:04.800 --> 07:06.560 So that's that's where a lot of the 07:06.560 --> 07:08.560 sensation comes from, too. Is it weird 07:08.560 --> 07:11.199 making right-hand turns? 07:11.199 --> 07:14.000 >> Uh, no. No, but I I will definitely clip 07:14.000 --> 07:15.599 my fair share of curbs on on 07:15.599 --> 07:16.560 righthanders. 07:16.560 --> 07:18.400 >> So, you are a mere mortal just like all 07:18.400 --> 07:22.479 of us drivers. Um, how do you feel about 07:22.479 --> 07:24.880 the driverless cars we're seeing pop up 07:24.880 --> 07:25.680 everywhere? 07:25.680 --> 07:27.440 >> Yeah. So, the only place I really ever 07:27.440 --> 07:28.960 see it is when I'm here in Scottsdale 07:28.960 --> 07:30.800 and I've I've yet to be in one, but I 07:30.800 --> 07:32.639 want to try it out. So, you'd be totally 07:32.639 --> 07:35.520 fine and open to like hopping in a Whimo 07:35.520 --> 07:37.520 and relinquishing your control of the 07:37.520 --> 07:38.160 vehicle. 07:38.160 --> 07:40.160 >> As I've been in Arizona here, I've not 07:40.160 --> 07:42.240 seen one, you know, stacked up in a 07:42.240 --> 07:44.479 telephone pole. So, I think I could I 07:44.479 --> 07:45.360 could trust it. 07:45.360 --> 07:46.880 >> Finally, 07:46.880 --> 07:48.240 all you've been through, all you've 07:48.240 --> 07:50.479 overcome, all you're doing. What's some 07:50.479 --> 07:52.720 advice you would give your younger self 07:52.720 --> 07:54.800 and all the next generation out there? 07:54.800 --> 07:56.160 What would you say to them? 07:56.160 --> 07:58.240 >> I don't know. I I think just continue to 07:58.240 --> 08:00.400 always, you know, treat people with 08:00.400 --> 08:02.879 respect. Um, 08:02.879 --> 08:04.560 and have fun, you know, have fun with 08:04.560 --> 08:05.919 what you're doing. 08:05.919 --> 08:08.070 >> That's awesome, man. 08:08.070 --> 08:12.560 [Applause] 08:12.560 --> 08:14.319 >> Today's story getting a 10 out of 10. 08:14.319 --> 08:16.400 Someone overcoming adversity to achieve 08:16.400 --> 08:18.960 an historic feat. Shannon Britt was born 08:18.960 --> 08:21.120 with a rare eye cancer that left her 08:21.120 --> 08:23.280 legally blind, but she's now preparing 08:23.280 --> 08:26.000 to represent Team USA in the first ever 08:26.000 --> 08:28.240 Women's Blind Cricket World Cup. 08:28.240 --> 08:29.599 >> I didn't think I was going to make the 08:29.599 --> 08:31.120 team. I was just going to try something 08:31.120 --> 08:34.640 new and I I wound up being decent at it. 08:34.640 --> 08:37.039 So, let's go USA. 08:37.039 --> 08:39.839 >> Shannon does it all. Batting, bowling, 08:39.839 --> 08:42.479 and fielding using a special ball that 08:42.479 --> 08:44.640 rattles like a maraca, allowing her to 08:44.640 --> 08:46.880 track it with her ears. And get this, 08:46.880 --> 08:48.640 since the rest of her team is totally 08:48.640 --> 08:51.040 blind, she wears special goggles to 08:51.040 --> 08:53.440 completely black out her vision. Shannon 08:53.440 --> 08:55.120 said she never expected to become an 08:55.120 --> 08:57.839 international sports star. But mom, oh, 08:57.839 --> 09:00.320 mom isn't surprised at all. She's done a 09:00.320 --> 09:03.680 lot of amazing things in her life and 09:03.680 --> 09:04.880 this is 09:04.880 --> 09:05.680 >> just one of them 09:05.680 --> 09:06.959 >> cherry on top. 09:06.959 --> 09:09.120 >> Shannon and her team will head to India 09:09.120 --> 09:11.200 and Sri Lanka to battle a host of other 09:11.200 --> 09:13.839 nations for the world title.
