It's Thursday, I'm Martin, this is Newsround. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Coming up: What's life like for kids in China's polluted cities? | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
We meet the panda twins popping out to say hello. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
And you tell us what info kids need to have fun online safely. | :00:17. | :00:25. | |
The rules need to be short and snappy. 1, 2, 3, not 13 pages. | :00:26. | :00:37. | |
First up, the children's commissioner for England says | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
you should have more power when it comes to your protection online. | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
She has set out what she thinks needs to change to help keep | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
you safe and having fun - including extra lessons in school. | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
Younger generations are now starting on Facebook and Instagram. | :00:51. | :00:58. | |
They are maybe under the age of nine. | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
They don't know, they're not aware of the people | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
that are on Facebook, Instagram, that maybe aren't | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
I don't think anyone really cares about their safety | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
It's just, like, "Oh, I'll be all right." | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
If they are learning from a young age, it will be easier for them | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
Anne Longfield is the Children's Commissioner for England. | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
Her job is to protect children's rights and make sure kids' | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
She says that children are not aware of what they're signing up | :01:23. | :01:30. | |
Online and social media lessons in school, starting from age four. | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
Shorter and easier to understand terms and conditions | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
New privacy laws to protect children's information online. | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
We want to put together older children in secondary schools | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
with younger children, to lead those lessons and make sure | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
children learn the things that they need to know | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
Most of the terms and conditions say you shouldn't be using many apps | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
But a Newsround survey last year found 78% of 10-12 year olds | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
I know that most kids, they don't read the terms and conditions. | :02:04. | :02:11. | |
I think the terms and conditions, the important stuff that you need | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
to know about setting up a profile, they need to be more talked about, | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
and kids need to be told about privacy settings. | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
Rules need to be short and snappy, like 1, 2, 3, not 15 pages. | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
You've also been getting in touch at Newsround Online, | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
Children at Whitstone School in Somerset say lessons | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
at school would be good, as long as they weren't boring | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
Leah says she thinks terms and conditions need to be shorter | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
because they just want to get on with it and not | :02:48. | :02:49. | |
And Alix says he already knows a lot about social media and feels | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
like he can stay safe on the internet. | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
The Children's Commissioner says it's up to the Government | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
and schools to help you learn what you're doing online, | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
to stay safe and, most importantly, to have fun. | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
Now to China where there is a huge problem with air pollution | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
Smog, which is like a smoky fog, can cause health problems and many | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
shops, offices and schools have to close. | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
Sophie, who lives in the capital Beijing, | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
I live in Beijing, the capital of China. | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
In my city, we have a lot of smog, also known as pollution. | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
In my day-to-day life, when pollution gets bad, | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
I can't go outside as much as I usually do and I can't get | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
But if I need to go shopping for groceries, | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
or to my friend's house, I'll wear one of these, | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
I've got one at my house, but there's loads more at my school. | :03:51. | :04:03. | |
This means I can go to school on high pollution days. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
The pollution happens all year round, but not all the time. | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
Do you know when you can't go outside to play | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
It's like that in Beijing, just its pollution instead. | :04:14. | :04:23. | |
The pollution right now is really bad and it's | :04:24. | :04:25. | |
I've lived here for eight years and this is some of the worst | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
Last up - check out these cute panda twins. | :04:30. | :04:37. | |
This is their first trip outside of their hollow tree. | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
Fu Feng and Fu Ban were born last August at a zoo in Vienna, | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
and the Austrian public voted to choose their names. | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
For the time being, they still sleep behind one of the trees, | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
where their mum can keep an eye on them. | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back at 7.40 tomorrow. | :04:54. | :04:57. |
