Hello and welcome back to Newsround - here's what's happening

0:00:000:00:05

around the world today.

0:00:050:00:09

How to to move an Antarctic research station, and...

0:00:090:00:13

why these officers are getting their groove on.

0:00:130:00:15

It's Newsround.

0:00:150:00:19

First, the city of Fort McMurray in the province of Alberta

0:00:260:00:30

in Canada has been evacuated because of a huge wildfire.

0:00:300:00:33

The fires, which have been made worse by winds,

0:00:330:00:35

sent ash raining down on the people who live there, and some homes

0:00:350:00:40

and roads have been affected.

0:00:400:00:42

No-one has been hurt, but 60,000 people have been asked

0:00:420:00:44

to leave their homes.

0:00:440:00:46

-- No-one has been hurt, but 80,000 people have been asked

0:00:460:00:49

to leave their homes.

0:00:490:00:50

You might have had to move house, but I'm guessing it was never

0:00:500:00:53

as extreme as this.

0:00:530:00:54

An entire British research station in icy Antarctica

0:00:540:00:56

is being moved - on skis.

0:00:560:00:59

It opened four years ago, but scientists were worried

0:00:590:01:01

a growing crack in the ice could leave the base

0:01:010:01:04

stranded on an iceberg.

0:01:040:01:06

Now, by moving the station piece by piece, they can save it

0:01:060:01:13

from floating out to sea.

0:01:130:01:15

Just three years ago, you could drive straight

0:01:150:01:16

across here on a flat snow surface.

0:01:160:01:18

Now, there's a massive chasm hundreds of metres across,

0:01:180:01:21

expanding at 15 centimetres a day, and extending 1.5 kilometres

0:01:210:01:26

per year in that direction.

0:01:260:01:29

If and when that joins up with the sea, then this

0:01:290:01:32

becomes a giant iceberg, and Halley Station is just a few

0:01:320:01:35

kilometres that way.

0:01:350:01:41

Celebrations in Leicester have continued, after their position

0:01:410:01:44

at the top of the Premier League was confirmed on Sunday night.

0:01:440:01:47

The team celebrated in style - here they are arriving by coach

0:01:470:01:50

for pizza in the city!

0:01:500:01:55

Manager Claudio Ranieri must be the happiest man

0:01:550:01:58

in football at the moment, but he's already looking

0:01:580:02:01

ahead to the challenges of the next season.

0:02:010:02:04

It doesn't change anything.

0:02:040:02:05

I want to stay here for a long time.

0:02:050:02:09

We have a project and we want to continue this project.

0:02:090:02:12

I know this next season will be harder, but we are ready

0:02:120:02:14

to fight, we are fighters.

0:02:140:02:19

Supporters have continued to gather and celebrate

0:02:190:02:22

at Leicester's King Power stadium.

0:02:220:02:23

We've been hearing from some young fans.

0:02:230:02:26

Me, my mum and my brother were just screaming,

0:02:260:02:28

we were jumping around the house and everything.

0:02:280:02:30

My mum told me and then I nearly cried my eyes out

0:02:300:02:33

because Leicester mean so much to me.

0:02:330:02:36

It's really exciting, because last season,

0:02:360:02:37

we were bottom of the league for, like, six months.

0:02:370:02:42

And now, to be crowned champions is just amazing.

0:02:420:02:45

I've been supporting them for all my life, and it's one

0:02:450:02:48

of those moments that you cherish, to be honest.

0:02:480:02:53

It's kind of like a dream come true for some Leicester fans who have

0:02:530:02:57

been supporting all their life and they've never had something this

0:02:570:02:59

good happen in the whole history of Leicester.

0:02:590:03:08

# Champione, champione, ole, ole, ole!#

0:03:080:03:18

Meanwhile, for other teams, the battle continues,

0:03:210:03:24

and Manchester City have been preparing for a big night ahead.

0:03:240:03:27

They need a win or a scoring draw against Real Madrid to see them

0:03:270:03:30

through to their first ever Champions League final.

0:03:300:03:33

But they'll have to do it away from home and against Cristiano Ronaldo

0:03:330:03:36

and his team-mates.

0:03:360:03:37

The winners face Athletico Madrid in the finals.

0:03:370:03:41

Now, we've talked about pooh power before on Newsround - yes, pooh -

0:03:410:03:44

being used to power everything from heating to the gas we use

0:03:440:03:47

to cook with at home.

0:03:470:03:48

But now we give you PEE power!

0:03:480:03:52

Ayshah's got more.

0:03:520:03:56

Who'd have thought you could turn this...

0:03:560:03:58

into this?

0:03:580:04:02

Every day, nearly 10 billion litres of urine is produced worldwide.

0:04:020:04:05

That's enough to fill 4,000 Olympic-sized pools.

0:04:050:04:11

And here in Bath, they are using urine to do

0:04:110:04:13

something pretty special.

0:04:130:04:16

Turning urine into electricity.

0:04:160:04:21

How does that work?

0:04:210:04:24

This is possible by using this device.

0:04:240:04:25

Inside the device there are bacteria eating the urine

0:04:250:04:28

and they generate electrons.

0:04:280:04:31

And those electrons are forced to flow through an external circuit.

0:04:310:04:38

It's this flow of electrons that is actually electricity.

0:04:380:04:43

This technology isn't new, but what's different about this

0:04:430:04:45

device is that it's smaller, cheaper and more powerful.

0:04:450:04:49

Why use something like urine?

0:04:490:04:51

Well, because this is a fuel that we'll never run out of.

0:04:510:04:54

Every day, we produce something like a litre and a half of urine.

0:04:540:05:00

Could I use this to power my phone one day?

0:05:000:05:02

Yes, definitely.

0:05:020:05:04

This is what we're working on at the moment, to be able

0:05:040:05:07

to generate enough power for a smartphone, a laptop

0:05:070:05:10

or other sorts of devices.

0:05:100:05:12

OK, so powering my phone isn't the most important thing,

0:05:120:05:16

of course, but it's hoped, one day, this technology could be

0:05:160:05:18

used to provide electricity to people in poorer countries.

0:05:180:05:23

So, next time you go to the loo, you can have a think

0:05:230:05:26

about how your wee could be powering the future.

0:05:260:05:32

And finally, watch this clip of police in New Zealand...

0:05:320:05:37

# I've been watching...#

0:05:370:05:41

Bet you didn't expect that!

0:05:410:05:42

The officers are getting their groove on to encourage others

0:05:420:05:46

to join the police there, and it's gone viral -

0:05:460:05:48

with more than four million views online.

0:05:480:05:51

They're hoping police officers around the world will take part

0:05:510:05:53

in the Runnning Man Challenge too.

0:05:530:05:56

That's all I've got time for - but Newsround's

0:05:560:05:58

back at 4:20 tonight.

0:05:580:05:59

See you then.
