:00:13. > :00:18.Welcome to Outside Source. Some of the main stories. Donald

:00:19. > :00:22.Trump signed a new executive order which will roll back row of the

:00:23. > :00:31.President Obama's climate change policies. With today's executive

:00:32. > :00:36.action I am taking historic steps to lift the restrictions on American

:00:37. > :00:41.energy, reverse government intrusion and the cancelled job killing

:00:42. > :00:45.regulations. Top Democrats are calling for the man leading the

:00:46. > :00:52.Trump rusher enquiry to step down. He was a key member of the Trump

:00:53. > :00:57.transition team. It represents an area of conflict. Theresa May will

:00:58. > :01:01.trigger Article 50 tomorrow. Today, the Scottish parliament voted to

:01:02. > :01:06.support a second independence referendum happening. The people of

:01:07. > :01:11.Scotland must also have their say. Scotland's future should be in

:01:12. > :01:14.Scotland's hands. We will talk about Lionel Messi being banned for four

:01:15. > :01:33.days in sport. -- four games. Our lead story on Outside Source is

:01:34. > :01:37.Donald Trump has begun dismantling some of America's high-profile

:01:38. > :01:42.climate change policies. He signed an executive order in the last few

:01:43. > :01:46.hours and he will be distancing himself from the Paris agreement.

:01:47. > :01:50.This was a substantial, international deal that set out to

:01:51. > :01:56.limit carbon emissions around the world. I have been speaking to one

:01:57. > :02:02.of the people who helped broker it. I am deeply concerned for the US

:02:03. > :02:12.economy. I am not concerned for the Paris agreement or the de

:02:13. > :02:14.carbonisation of the global economy, I am concerned about the US economy.

:02:15. > :02:17.It is removing the incentives for the US economy to continue to

:02:18. > :02:21.progress into the 21st century and inviting them to look back into the

:02:22. > :02:26.20th century. It is a little bit trying to rescue Kodak in a world of

:02:27. > :02:32.digital photography. It just doesn't work. It doesn't make sense. While

:02:33. > :02:38.there may be Americans watching and appreciating your concern, most

:02:39. > :02:42.people will be looking to you and thinking, why aren't you concerned

:02:43. > :02:48.about the Paris agreement? I don't think it will have a huge effect on

:02:49. > :02:53.other countries. This repeal that we here in the news today comes within

:02:54. > :02:57.48 hours of China having announced that they are closing at the last

:02:58. > :03:06.coal plant in Beijing because of health reasons. Reflecting and very

:03:07. > :03:13.much itemising what President Sheen playing has said that China will

:03:14. > :03:18.lead the world. This comes 24 hours after India announced they will move

:03:19. > :03:23.to 65% renewable energy. The world is moving forward using renewable

:03:24. > :03:27.energy. What about America as a country which produces a great deal

:03:28. > :03:31.of omissions and those omissions have an impact on the climate. Are

:03:32. > :03:37.you not concerned about Mr Trump from the point of view? It depends

:03:38. > :03:41.on what he is trying to do. If the measure he is trying to put forward

:03:42. > :03:49.has the purpose of reviving the coal industry in the United States, that

:03:50. > :03:53.is futile, it is completely futile. Because coal is dead in the United

:03:54. > :04:01.States, not because of regulation but economics, you cannot produce

:04:02. > :04:10.energy from coal at a competitive price. Coal energy is 50 and $88 a

:04:11. > :04:18.megawatt an hour. Renewable is already at 30 dollars a megawatt and

:04:19. > :04:24.rotting. So it is sensible that countries are moving towards

:04:25. > :04:30.renewable energy, coal is dead. People who voted to Mr Trump who are

:04:31. > :04:36.concerned about jobs, said even if a deceleration in the process would

:04:37. > :04:40.have an impact on my family. Those who are concerned about jobs, they

:04:41. > :04:45.should be more concerned the night. Today there are ten times more jobs

:04:46. > :04:51.in renewable energy in the United States than in coal. There are four

:04:52. > :04:56.times renewable energy jobs in oil and gas. The solar industry is

:04:57. > :04:58.increasing by 6% and the job creation in the United States where

:04:59. > :05:15.as oil and is dropping by 18%. A measure like this is actually

:05:16. > :05:17.stealing jobs away from the United States, it is making products and

:05:18. > :05:20.services in the United States high carbon, that do not have a growing

:05:21. > :05:22.market in other countries. It is reducing the export from the United

:05:23. > :05:25.States and reducing job potential. This should be a concern. More

:05:26. > :05:30.detail on these new policies from Donald Trump, what he is putting in

:05:31. > :05:35.place, his arguments for it and his critics' arguments against it right

:05:36. > :05:41.now on the BBC website. I wonder if this might be the moment Argentina

:05:42. > :05:47.lost its place at the World Cup in Russia next year? Fifa has banned

:05:48. > :05:50.Lionel Messi from Argentina's for World Cup qualifier is. He abused

:05:51. > :05:58.the assistant referee during a home game against Chile on Thursday. It

:05:59. > :06:03.would always be bad news, but particularly now because Argentina

:06:04. > :06:08.is having a hard time qualifying. The first time I had the story, I

:06:09. > :06:13.thought for games was harsh because players criticise assistant referees

:06:14. > :06:18.all the time, so what did he say? He used abusive words to the assistant

:06:19. > :06:22.referee. It does look harsh when you look at the FAQ Neil Taylor from

:06:23. > :06:27.Wales only got one match for his tackle on Seamus Coleman last week.

:06:28. > :06:34.So this four match ban is harsh. He will defend the charge, they will

:06:35. > :06:40.try and get it overturned. But Fifa say it is in line with disciplinary

:06:41. > :06:44.rulings in similar cases. Lionel Messi has scored in both of their

:06:45. > :06:48.last wins. They are playing at the moment, it is a difficult situation

:06:49. > :06:52.and they are missing quite a few players through injury and

:06:53. > :06:55.suspension. There is a chance of them going through in their next

:06:56. > :07:01.couple of games into the World Cup themselves and they are losing 1-0

:07:02. > :07:05.at present so without Lionel Messi, they are struggling. To what degree

:07:06. > :07:10.are they struggling because it leaves some opportunities for the

:07:11. > :07:14.big guns to come back into it? It basically means the top four teams

:07:15. > :07:21.automatically qualify. The fifth placed team goes into qualifier.

:07:22. > :07:26.Usually the fifth placed team news leaders go through, so I will leave

:07:27. > :07:30.you with this caveat bash Brazil, in these fixtures taking place over the

:07:31. > :07:35.next few hours can qualify as being the first team through along with

:07:36. > :07:38.the hosts Russia, obviously to the next World Cup. I will tweak the

:07:39. > :07:44.facts in a moment, if you are interested. And he very much for

:07:45. > :07:49.that. Football qualifies for our sports section and I'm not sure it's

:07:50. > :07:52.smashing cement blocks with your head does. But for this show at

:07:53. > :08:04.least, we will call it a sport because this is a new world record.

:08:05. > :08:09.15 years old. From Bosnia. As a particular skill for smashing these

:08:10. > :08:14.boxes. An unusual technique. It definitely seems to work. The crowd

:08:15. > :08:32.liked it too and they liked it more and more as he went along. Take a

:08:33. > :08:41.look at this. Three to go. He ended up crushing 111 cement blocks in

:08:42. > :08:44.just 35 seconds. He looks drained. I am impressed. The Guinness book of

:08:45. > :08:49.records adjudicators were present and that is what it meant come he

:08:50. > :08:54.got a new record. He will be in the next book. From that too much more

:08:55. > :08:59.serious story because one of the Chinese Super League best-known

:09:00. > :09:03.teams, Shanghai has had a terrible day because part of its stadium has

:09:04. > :09:11.burnt down. These pictures were released by Chinese state TV, CCTV.

:09:12. > :09:16.Flames and smoke billowing out. This is from Tuesday morning. Fortunately

:09:17. > :09:21.there were no casualties. It is not known what caused it. But most of

:09:22. > :09:26.the stands and the pitcher is unaffected. This is a club with

:09:27. > :09:30.serious ambitions, and it signed Carlos Tevez in the off-season. They

:09:31. > :09:39.are not sure if its first home game in three weeks will go ahead.

:09:40. > :09:51.If you haven't heard of quad core 1800, completed by this Swiss skier.

:09:52. > :09:58.It consists of five spins and a few flips. This is the first person to

:09:59. > :10:05.ever land this trick. Afterwards he said he was stoked! Understated. You

:10:06. > :10:13.can see that on the BBC sport website.

:10:14. > :10:18.Back to the news, this was a significant meeting earlier. Those

:10:19. > :10:22.are the pictures. This is the Iranian president, Hassan Rouhani

:10:23. > :10:30.meeting President Putin. We are told they discussed Syria and Yemen. It

:10:31. > :10:34.is very important for both countries, I would say. Because

:10:35. > :10:44.Russia is trying to re-establish itself at the moment as an important

:10:45. > :10:48.actor at the international arena. Russia has been influenced by

:10:49. > :10:54.economic sanctions by the West. So has a run, and they are trying to

:10:55. > :10:58.work together to counter negative economic effects of the sanctions

:10:59. > :11:02.they face. And secondly try to pursue their own goals, in the

:11:03. > :11:07.Middle East and generally on the international arena. This meeting

:11:08. > :11:12.was important to coordinate their efforts. In terms of coordination, I

:11:13. > :11:16.mentioned Syria, did we get any detail on how the Iranians and the

:11:17. > :11:22.Russians might go forward in their actions and Syria? The details of

:11:23. > :11:25.that meeting were not released. It tells you how important the meeting

:11:26. > :11:30.was and maybe how important their agreements were. What we do know is

:11:31. > :11:34.they will enhance their trade agreements, their military

:11:35. > :11:40.agreements and this does mean a lot because Russia does need a lot of

:11:41. > :11:47.new bases to conduct the effective operations. The fact details are not

:11:48. > :11:52.released probably tells more about the importance, rather than the

:11:53. > :11:57.small facts which were released. In the past, these two countries have

:11:58. > :12:00.not always been so close, who instigated this meeting? Which

:12:01. > :12:07.country is driving an increased warmth between the two? Yes, the

:12:08. > :12:11.history was different, but over the past several years, relations were

:12:12. > :12:17.developing and were becoming better and better. Actually, this morning

:12:18. > :12:21.President Putin's spokesman said Russia and Iran had five centuries

:12:22. > :12:27.of good relations. These other words we don't hear from him that often.

:12:28. > :12:32.It shows how both countries are keen and how Russia is keen to develop

:12:33. > :12:37.this cooperation and show the United States that Russia has a lot of

:12:38. > :12:44.allies and even if the United States continues to put pressure on Russia,

:12:45. > :12:51.Russia will still follow its policy. Thank you very much. In a few

:12:52. > :12:54.minutes, we will turn to what is happening in Washington. There is a

:12:55. > :12:59.big discussion around this man, in charge of the committee which is

:13:00. > :13:03.overseeing investigations into the allegations of links between the

:13:04. > :13:06.presidential campaign team of last year and Russia. We will be live

:13:07. > :13:15.later to get the latest on that story.

:13:16. > :13:19.For the first time in 30 years, and you ?1 coin has come into

:13:20. > :13:22.circulation. It has 12 sides and is designed to be harder to copy down

:13:23. > :13:28.the round pound coin which will be phased out by October. Simon

:13:29. > :13:48.Gompertz went to Southend to see if everyone is ready.

:13:49. > :13:51.On a sunny day in Southend, they're keen to get you to spend your pounds

:13:52. > :13:54.but what do people make of the new pound coins?

:13:55. > :13:56.It's got 12 sides, the two colours and it's got various security

:13:57. > :13:59.features because there are so many fakes of the old pound coin.

:14:00. > :14:02.Very small writing, a sort of hologram in there.

:14:03. > :14:10.It's slightly bigger, but slightly thinner.

:14:11. > :14:13.And is coin-operated equipment ready for the new coin?

:14:14. > :14:16.The payphones have been changed, so have most parking metres here.

:14:17. > :14:18.But despite ?100 million being spent on upgrades across the UK,

:14:19. > :14:21.a lot of machines, like this one don't accept it yet.

:14:22. > :14:23.None of these machines have been changed yet.

:14:24. > :14:25.And some businesses have been putting off the upgrade

:14:26. > :14:28.The machines have to be changed to accept both

:14:29. > :14:32.For us, each coin mechanism, which is what takes and reads

:14:33. > :14:37.the coins, is going to cost roughly ?16 for each mech.

:14:38. > :14:41.And over 800 coin mechs across all of our sites.

:14:42. > :14:44.We are looking at sort of over ?12,000 altogether as a company.

:14:45. > :14:49.It does feel a little unfair that we're the ones that have to bear

:14:50. > :14:55.Some businesses are so fed up with coin changes that they've gone

:14:56. > :14:58.over to cards that you charge up at the counter, they've changed

:14:59. > :15:07.You swipe it through and then you're ready to play.

:15:08. > :15:10.We haven't had to change anything at all.

:15:11. > :15:15.We think coins are pretty much dead now.

:15:16. > :15:18.But coins remain very much alive, despite what is happening

:15:19. > :15:21.here and hundreds of millions of the new one pounds are being put

:15:22. > :15:25.If you get hold of old pounds they'll still be useable

:15:26. > :15:29.After that, any old change you still have, you'll have

:15:30. > :15:51.Simon Gompertz, BBC News, Southend-on-Sea.

:15:52. > :16:00.We live at the BBC newsroom. Our lead story concerns Donald Trump. He

:16:01. > :16:08.signed a order running back President Obama's climate change

:16:09. > :16:11.goals. As you know, there are investigations in the US in the

:16:12. > :16:18.first of all, Mr Trump's claimed that Barack Obama ordered a wiretap

:16:19. > :16:21.on him during the presidential campaign of 2016. And,

:16:22. > :16:27.investigations into those alleged ties between Russia and Mr Trump's

:16:28. > :16:32.presidential campaign. The person he is overseeing those probes is this

:16:33. > :16:39.man, Devon Nunez, the Republican congressmen who chairs the house

:16:40. > :16:44.intelligence committee. He found information that Donald Trump was

:16:45. > :16:48.caught up in incidental surveillance. That is when US

:16:49. > :16:52.intelligence is looking at one group of people, and then when they are

:16:53. > :16:58.doing that, they come across someone else. In this case it was Donald

:16:59. > :17:03.Trump and his associates. The Democrats are furious how this is

:17:04. > :17:12.being handled. They said this is what a cover-up to a crime looks

:17:13. > :17:20.like. And John McCain, quoted as saying Nunez should reveal his

:17:21. > :17:24.sources. Next, the top Democrats from the same committee. It would be

:17:25. > :17:28.worthwhile for the chairman to recuse himself from any

:17:29. > :17:32.investigation involving the Trump campaign ordered from transition. He

:17:33. > :17:39.was a key member of the Trump transition team and it represents an

:17:40. > :17:42.area of conflict. It is not normal to go and receive information as the

:17:43. > :17:47.chairman of the committee you cannot share with your own committee

:17:48. > :17:51.members, you don't share with the president particularly if it

:17:52. > :17:55.involves associates of the president. Strange clip that one,

:17:56. > :18:04.lots of microphones in vision but not of them were turned on. Mr Nunez

:18:05. > :18:13.says he has no intention of the accusing himself. The US House

:18:14. > :18:16.intelligence committee chair says he will not share his intelligence

:18:17. > :18:21.sources with other members of the committee. It is complicated but it

:18:22. > :18:27.gets to the heart of how these investigations are working and what

:18:28. > :18:31.relationship those overseeing investigations have the president.

:18:32. > :18:37.Our reporter is live in Washington, DC. Anthony, when we are talking

:18:38. > :18:42.about the source Mr Nunes got his information from, we are referring

:18:43. > :18:45.to someone inside the White House? Certainly someone inside the

:18:46. > :18:50.executive branch of government, it could have been an intelligence

:18:51. > :18:55.officials who works at the executive branch. Mr Nunes went to the White

:18:56. > :18:58.House to meet with this person who showed him the documents, the

:18:59. > :19:04.intelligence reports that had data from those wiretaps that

:19:05. > :19:08.incidentally picked up Trump's communications or someone close to

:19:09. > :19:11.Trump. Then he went back to the capital, held a press conference and

:19:12. > :19:15.them back to the White House to inform President Trump himself about

:19:16. > :19:19.the information contained in these documents and holds another press

:19:20. > :19:23.conference. That is what has impurity Democrats, all of this was

:19:24. > :19:27.done without informing them or the committee and they say it is highly

:19:28. > :19:34.unusual and because of Devon Nunez's ties to the Trump transition team as

:19:35. > :19:38.Adam Shipp pointed out and the fact he is heading up this investigation

:19:39. > :19:42.in the house of Representatives, they thing he should recuse himself,

:19:43. > :19:46.step aside and let someone else head-up the investigation or bring

:19:47. > :19:50.in and outside investigator to do something totally removed from the

:19:51. > :19:57.politics of Congress. Just before I let you go, the lead story, this

:19:58. > :20:01.executive order changing the US policy on climate change affecting

:20:02. > :20:05.the coal and gas embers Billy McClure energies, it is generating a

:20:06. > :20:15.lot of interest. Is it as big in the US media as this Nunes story is

:20:16. > :20:21.rating? It is generating more because at the moment Nunes is not

:20:22. > :20:24.sharing intelligence information with committee members. The

:20:25. > :20:28.announcement will take time to see which direction it goes. People

:20:29. > :20:33.understand just because Donald Trump signed an executive order says they

:20:34. > :20:38.will shift policy, you have to see how it battles out in the courts and

:20:39. > :20:41.over time whether it represents a shift on the ground. Anthony, that

:20:42. > :20:45.is an important lesson we have been lending, when Mr Trump announces

:20:46. > :20:51.something, whether it is those two versions of the travel ban, or the

:20:52. > :20:53.attempts to change the health care policy, the announcement isn't

:20:54. > :20:58.necessarily followed with an ability to get it over the various hurdles

:20:59. > :21:03.into action. We will be watching that action closely. It is Wednesday

:21:04. > :21:08.morning in Australia right now. Residents in the far north of the

:21:09. > :21:14.country are waking up to a trail of destruction in some cases. If we go

:21:15. > :21:29.in more closely on the map of Queensland, Cyclone Debbie came in

:21:30. > :21:34.on Airlie beach. 25,000 people were warned to evacuate. Those who stayed

:21:35. > :21:38.were warned to keep indoors. When you look at this, it is not hard to

:21:39. > :21:44.see why. The storm has been downgraded to a tropical low, but

:21:45. > :21:48.many people still in lockdown. Up until an hour ago, the authorities

:21:49. > :21:53.were also. But this is the latest statement from the authorities. I

:21:54. > :22:01.think what we need to brace for, this is a very destructive storm and

:22:02. > :22:03.storm system. I think the public and community of Queensland need to

:22:04. > :22:06.understand we will get lots of reports of damage and sadly, I think

:22:07. > :22:11.we will also receive more reports of injuries, if not death and we need

:22:12. > :22:16.to be prepared for that. We will keep you up-to-date. Next, sexual

:22:17. > :22:20.harassment in India and some surveys suggest over 80% of Indian women

:22:21. > :22:35.have experienced it in one form or another. It has a number of ideas to

:22:36. > :22:44.combat the problem. It is called anti-Romeos squads. These officers

:22:45. > :22:50.are on an unusual mission. Their task is to target Roadside Romeos.

:22:51. > :22:58.These aren't romantic figures, but men who harass women on the streets.

:22:59. > :23:01.The ruling BJP party won a landslide victory in state elections earlier

:23:02. > :23:11.this month making the streets safer for women was a key promise. But

:23:12. > :23:16.where are the Romeos? This seems random, they are stopping guys. Like

:23:17. > :23:21.this guy here, asking them what they are up to, checking their ID. There

:23:22. > :23:31.was no evidence he was harassing women at all. These two men were

:23:32. > :23:39.just sitting on their motorbikes. Their wives, who were in a nearby

:23:40. > :23:43.shop, were not happy. You can not go to everyone and say, what are you

:23:44. > :23:51.doing? Why are you sitting like this? Stand up. It is not correct.

:23:52. > :23:58.This is not the way. Elsewhere... The police have been even more

:23:59. > :24:07.enthusiastic. This is a team of undercover policewoman. The police
