It's 4.20pm. You're live with me, Nel. I'll bring you news of the

lucky kids chosen to carry the Commonwealth baton.

Plus: The Harry Potter spin off coming to the big screen.

This is Newsround. First, the impact of climate change

on the planet has been debated for years. But, now, a group of

scientists says they've worked out what the effects of rising

temperatures might be. So, what are their predictions, and what could it

mean for our future? These scientists, who work for the

United Nations, say that the world will get hotter by two degrees

Celsius over the next 20 to 30 years. It might not sound much, but

the scientists say it'll have a big impact on all of us. They say warmer

sea temperatures would mean many types of fish would move away from

where they are now. They predict the amount of fish you could catch in

the tropics and in Antarctica will be cut in half. It's bad news for

humans, too, as, in many parts of the world, people rely on fish for

food. The report also says changes in temperature and rainfall can

affect crops. Rising sea levels could increase the risk of flooding,

which could put farmers out of business, and again cut the amount

of food available. Animals will also be affected. Some will begin to move

towards higher ground, or towards the Poles, trying to get to cooler

land, in search of food. As well as being tough on the animals, it could

also impact the amount of meat available for people to eat. The

report argues that poorer countries are likely to suffer more in the

short term. But that no-one on the planet will be untouched by climate

change in the future. They say the recent UK floods and the storms in

America were early warnings of the effect of climate change. The people

behind the report say that, once these changes happen, they cannot be

reversed. But that humans are capable of dealing with some of

them, by developing things like sea walls, and extra help for farmers

affected by drought. Scientists have spent many years trying to convince

people of the need to deal with climate change, but not everyone is

persuaded. The United Nations hopes this report will be more successful

in getting people to change their minds and habits.

Next, one of the UK's leading disability charities has told

Newsround that out-of-school clubs and activity groups don't do enough

for kids with disabilities. According to Scope, there are not

enough options for disabled children who want to get involved.

Lots of disabled young people find it hard to take part in their local

swimming clubs, youth clubs, drama clubs. Often, they feel they are

unwelcoming or even they get turned away.

But Paralympic champion Hannah Cockcroft doesn't agree with

everything the charity says, and told us the types of things she did

when she was younger. Swimming club, brownies, I signed up

to the choir, dance classes, I did something different every single

night. I do not agree with the statistics at all. There are so many

clubs you can make friends at and have fun. You can still join in.

That's Hannah's experience, but what about yours? Emily in Kent says:

Keep those comments coming. And you can see Martin's report, as

he meets kids with disabilities, back here at 6.50pm.

Major movie news now. And a new big screen offering from the "wizarding

world" of Harry Potter. The spin off book, Fantastic Beasts And Where To

Find Them, is being turned into three films. Author JK Rowling will

adapt the story, which is set 70 years before we meet Harry. But, as

yet, no release date has been announced.

Those movies will have to go a long way to match the success of Frozen.

The Disney film's just broken the record for the most money ever made

by an animated movie. It's smashed the previous record, held by Toy

Story three, taking in more than ?600 million in cinema ticket sales

worldwide. Finally, it's been an exciting day

for hundreds of kids in Scotland who've been chosen as official baton

bearers for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. The baton's been on a

global tour of commonwealth countries and is currently in the

Caribbean. Today, hundreds of kids were told they'd be part of the

Scotland leg of the relay in June and July. Robert was one of the

lucky ones chosen BATON-ACT. I'm going to be doing it in my

hometown, am overwhelmed. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

There's more from Robert at 6.50pm, as well as news on England's new

World Cup kit.
