It's Monday, time for your Newsround update with me, Ayshah.

0:00:100:00:12

Coming your way:

0:00:120:00:13

The bad boy swan who's accused of upsetting locals on the River Cam.

0:00:130:00:17

First, top scientists are warning that we all need to eat

0:00:190:00:20

less meat and dairy products.

0:00:220:00:24

But it's not for our health - it's to help the environment.

0:00:240:00:27

It's claimed forests are being cut down to make space

0:00:270:00:29

for farm animals to graze and to grow crops to feed them.

0:00:290:00:33

This deforestation raises levels of carbon in the atmosphere,

0:00:330:00:37

but also, burps from the animals add methane gas, too.

0:00:370:00:41

These gases are speeding up the rate the planet's climate is

0:00:410:00:44

changing, says the report in the Nature Climate Change journal.

0:00:440:00:48

Footy fans will be glued to tablets, smart phones and TV screens today

0:00:480:00:52

because it's transfer deadline day, the last chance managers have to

0:00:520:00:55

try and secure the signings they need for the rest of the season.

0:00:550:00:59

And here's the big name being talked about this morning -

0:00:590:01:02

Monaco striker Radamel Falcao.

0:01:020:01:04

He's been offered to Arsenal, Man City and United, too.

0:01:040:01:08

But with a price tag of ?35 MILLION, who will want to splash that cash?

0:01:080:01:14

Next, one of 30 gold bars buried on a beach in Kent has been found.

0:01:140:01:20

Kevin and his partner Kirsty discovered it after just one hour

0:01:200:01:23

of digging.

0:01:230:01:23

It might look small, but it is estimated to be worth ?500.

0:01:230:01:26

Artist Michael Sailstorfer has buried ?10,000 worth of gold

0:01:260:01:28

as part of an arts festival.

0:01:280:01:30

Hundreds of people have flocked to the beach in Folkestone

0:01:300:01:32

for a chance to find treasure.

0:01:320:01:34

Here's Kirsty and Kevin talking about the moment they struck gold.

0:01:340:01:37

I just came across it, really.

0:01:370:01:39

I lifted the spade up and it was there.

0:01:390:01:41

I wasn't expecting to see it.

0:01:410:01:42

I ran over to Kirsty and showed her.

0:01:420:01:44

I was shaking a little bit because I was quite nervous about finding it,

0:01:440:01:48

but just really happy.

0:01:480:01:51

Next up, extraordinary new footage has been released

0:01:510:01:55

by the US space agency NASA showing a series of powerful solar flares.

0:01:550:01:58

There have been a number of eruptions on the surface

0:01:580:02:00

of the sun in the last week.

0:02:000:02:02

Solar flares can cause disruption to satellites and scientists will be

0:02:020:02:05

keeping a close eye on the activity.

0:02:050:02:10

Next to Cambridge, where some tourists enjoying the sights

0:02:100:02:12

from the River Cam have come face to face with a rather naughty swan.

0:02:120:02:15

The feathered menace is called Asboy and he's been pictured attacking

0:02:150:02:18

anything in his path.

0:02:180:02:19

But he's not the first swan to leave his mark on the river.

0:02:190:02:22

We sent our bravest reporter, Ricky, to investigate.

0:02:220:02:24

Swans, what delicate creatures.

0:02:260:02:29

Sailing through these tranquil waters without a care in the world.

0:02:290:02:33

They are quite simply majestic, elegant and...pretty

0:02:330:02:36

bad tempered.

0:02:360:02:42

At least this chap is.

0:02:420:02:45

Meet Asboy the swan.

0:02:450:02:47

He's been caught on camera causing terror

0:02:470:02:49

on the River Cam in Cambridge.

0:02:490:02:52

Reports from eyewitnesses say they've seen this swan pecking

0:02:520:02:56

at people on punts, attacking canoeists and even flying

0:02:560:02:58

directly into visiting families.

0:02:580:03:06

Have any of you seen Asboy the swan?

0:03:060:03:08

Sorry.

0:03:080:03:08

Have you heard about him?

0:03:080:03:10

I'd rather not say.

0:03:100:03:11

Where was it?

0:03:110:03:11

Over there.

0:03:110:03:12

Can I ask you if you've seen the swan?

0:03:120:03:15

It could be watching us right now.

0:03:150:03:19

I've not encountered the bird in question just yet,

0:03:190:03:23

but with the help of Jed Ramsey, who manages the river here, we're

0:03:230:03:26

going to try and track him down.

0:03:260:03:30

Have you seen Asboy the swan?

0:03:300:03:32

That way.

0:03:320:03:34

This swan seems to be OK.

0:03:340:03:36

Are you Asboy?

0:03:360:03:38

He's coming closer, though.

0:03:380:03:42

I think it might be a bit of a myth, we've not been able to track

0:03:420:03:45

down a particular swan who is causing a problem.

0:03:450:03:48

You think it might be a couple of swans?

0:03:480:03:50

I think so.

0:03:500:03:50

Through the summer swans can get protective

0:03:500:03:53

of their nests or their young.

0:03:530:03:56

We had one particularly crazy swan a couple of years ago who we've moved.

0:03:560:04:01

We can usually find them, but we haven't tracked this one.

0:04:010:04:06

Did he try to nibble at your boat?

0:04:060:04:08

Yeah.

0:04:080:04:09

Nibbling the boat or trying to eat bread?

0:04:090:04:12

We can't be sure this is the bird in question.

0:04:120:04:16

Luckily we haven't come across Asboy the swan today - he's out there

0:04:160:04:19

somewhere, but we don't know where.

0:04:190:04:22

So the people of Cambridge are safe for now.

0:04:220:04:25

Hang on a minute, he's behind you!

0:04:250:04:27

Look!

0:04:270:04:27

Watch out!

0:04:270:04:35

The line-up for the new series of Strictly has been confirmed.

0:04:350:04:38

It all starts at the weekend and you've been telling us

0:04:380:04:42

on the website what you think.

0:04:420:04:43

That's all from me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour.
