It’s not all doom and gloom on climate change, with eco-warrior Al Gore

We begin with breaking news, as the US carries out major airstrikes in Iraq and Syria - in response to a drone strike that killed three US service members, and wounded more than 40 others, in Jordan earlier this week. Then - it's the greatest existential threat to humanity, and the extraordinary people doing something about it. CNN Chief Climate Correspondent Bill Weir shows us the clean industrial revolution kicking into life to save our planet. Eco-warrior and former VP Al Gore is optimistic on climate activism. But he says “we’ve got to stop using the sky as an open sewer” now, if we want to save our planet from climate change. Gore also blasts MAGA Republicans for playing “petty” politics over the crisis at the southern border - while Ukraine runs dangerously low on munitions. With Ukraine’s military aid stymied by political deadlock in DC, Putin is pressing his advantage with intensified attacks on the frontlines. In the Amanpour Archive this week - the similarities between the first Gulf War supply crunch, and Ukraine's munitions shortage today. And finally, DeepMind co-founder and tech savant Mustafa Suleyman on the opportunities and costs of using AI to supercharge productivity - as we enter what he calls “the most productive decade in history of our species.” Learn more about your ad choices.
