1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: Happy Friday, everybody. Welcome to the Daily Eyes. My name

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: is Sam Kazlowski. I'm here with Zara Seidler. It's the

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: fifth of November, of Friday, and for that we're going

4
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 1: to overload you with good news today. Let's get through

5
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: the big stories of the morning. First number one, Australia

6
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 1: has been criticized for failing to join one hundred and

7
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: ninety other countries that have pledged to phase out coal

8
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: fueled power generation in a deal agreed to at the

9
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: Glasgow Climate Conference. It comes as the Australian government said

10
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: last week that net zero emissions can be reached without

11
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: shutting down fossil fuel production in Australia.

12
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 2: Seven West Media has apologized for wrongfully identifying a First

13
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 2: Nations man as the suspect in custody over the kidnapping

14
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 2: of Cleo Smith. The media company said the images were

15
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,959
Speaker 2: removed promptly, but seven News apologizes for the era.

16
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: It's time to check in with the retail sector now.

17
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: Australian retail sales saw a four point four percent fall

18
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: in quarterly sales due to recent COVID nineteen lockdown across

19
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: the country. Ben James, director of quarterly Economy Wide Statistics

20
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: said quote, this is the largest quarterly fall in national

21
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: sales volumes ever recorded. However, in some better news for

22
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: the sector, we are expecting an uptick due to the

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: fact that Sydney and Melbourne are out of lockdown and

24
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: a big Christmas shopping period awaits.

25
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: Today's good news is that a new study that was

26
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 2: published in The Lancet very recently has found that the

27
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: HPV vaccine has cut cases of cervical cancer by nearly

28
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 2: ninety percent. Cancer Research UK has described the findings as historic.

29
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 2: This week really ended with an amazing, amazing news story

30
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: and it almost felt like the good news of little

31
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: Cleo being found made up for what's been a pretty

32
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 2: negative news cycle recently. So we thought we'd run you

33
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 2: through a couple of good news stories that we've seen

34
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 2: pop up that might lighten up your Friday.

35
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: It's always worth doing this for a couple of weeks.

36
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: I mean, at the moment, I've got a mustache on

37
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: my face for November and part of what I think

38
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: about in the month is the fact that we need

39
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: to balance some of the bad news with some of

40
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: the good stuff. So we're going to hit you with

41
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: four good news stories for a total good news overload, Zara,

42
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: we have to start with Cleo. The images yesterday of

43
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: the previously missing four year old girl from Western Australia

44
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: in the arms of her parents, looking happy and healthy,

45
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: warmed everybody's heart. We're learning a little bit more about

46
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: the police rescue mission. Yesterday. The police released this audio

47
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: of the unbelievable moment that Cleo was found alone in

48
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: the house early Wednesday morning. I gotta, I gotta, what

49
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: what's your name?

50
00:02:54,160 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: What's your name? All week we have been talking about

51
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 2: COP twenty six, or the Glasgow Climate Conference, and one

52
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 2: of the more positive stories to come out of that

53
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 2: conference was the announcement that indigenous peoples in five countries

54
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: will receive two point three billion dollars for their role

55
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 2: in protecting forests. So the governments of the US, the UK, Germany,

56
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 2: Norway and the Netherlands, together with some international charities, pledged

57
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 2: to give that money to the indigenous peoples, again recognizing

58
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 2: their incredible role in protecting land and country. Those governments

59
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 2: specifically said that the money will go towards channeling support

60
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 2: to indigenous peoples and local communities, as well as activities

61
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: to secure strengthen and protect indigenous peoples and local communities,

62
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: lands and resource rights.

63
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: Sticking with the Glasgow theme, and India and the UK

64
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: have announced a joint project that aims to create a

65
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: solar grid connecting countries in different parts of the world.

66
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: This was announced at the UN Climate Talks in Glasgow.

67
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: Project is known as the Green Grids Initiative, and it's

68
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: being initiated by the International Solar Alliance, which was launched

69
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: by India and France at the twenty fifteen Paris Climate Conference.

70
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: The UK and India this week agreed to join forces

71
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: in the initiative. The key premise behind this idea is

72
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: the fact that the sun is always shining and when

73
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: it's dark in the UK, it's bright in India, and

74
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: so the two countries would actually swap grids during the

75
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: night so that the countries could rely on solar power

76
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: twenty four hours a day. It's pretty exciting innovation and

77
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: something that may be more part of our lives in

78
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: the years to come.

79
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: Though it's been really lovely dialing down the number of

80
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: COVID stories we've had to report on this is actually

81
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 2: some good news. There's been a real effort recently to

82
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 2: address vaccine inequity across the world, and we've seen that

83
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 2: from the leaders in both India and Canada. So in India,

84
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 2: Prime Minister Nearendromodi on Saturday told G twenty leaders that

85
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 2: his country is ready to produce over five billion vaccine

86
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 2: doses by the end of twenty twenty two. In addition

87
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 2: to that, Canada is set to donate seventy three million

88
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 2: COVID nineteen vaccine doses to vulnerable countries through Kovax, which

89
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 2: is basically a vaccine distribution program. So in that ten

90
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: million doses of maderna will be immediately donated and sixty

91
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: three million doses will be further donated by the end

92
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty two. It's a good reminder that while

93
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 2: we're really privileged to have had access to vaccines, that's

94
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 2: not the case everywhere in the world, and vaccine inequity

95
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 2: is no doubt going to be a big issue well

96
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 2: into the future.

97
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: That's all from us. Make sure you take some time

98
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: this weekend too, perhaps even disconnects from the news and

99
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 1: give yourself a break. That is part of a healthy

100
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 1: news diet. I also wanted to announce that we have

101
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: just launched a piece of really exciting merchandise. Our water

102
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: bottles are there to not only protect the planet, but

103
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 1: to keep us hydrated all day, every day. They're available

104
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: on the link on our Instagram. We're really excited about

105
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: this partnership with Soul Cups and we're keen to see

106
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: how many of them we can get out there into

107
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: the world. Have a look at the water bottles and

108
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: tell us what you think, and have a fantastic weekend.

109
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: We'll speak to you on Monday.
