amazon is an expanding company. i cannot remember the numbers, but something like 600,000 or 700,000 employees. they've got to focus somewhere. emily: more than 3500 full-time jobs in oregon since 2010. brad: they are a company that has bet again and again on urban areas, attracting young workers, and they are looking for places that want them. they seem to have found that in portland. emily: senior executive editor of global tech, brad stone. thank you for stopping by. sticking with amazon, the victory of cloud computing now face a threat that is literally at the edges of their networks. more people and companies using computer power goes to them, not at remote centers, and that means huge opportunity for wireless carriers building fast networks to handle the job, but it will also put pressure on the big three to team up with the wireless companies. our next guest wrote a report on the topic. can you describe to us in layman's terms, what is age computing? what is this need for computing at the so-called as? >> sur

camilla veras mota, bbc news, in the amazon. a couple of hours ago president bolsonaro, speaking on brazilian tv, blamed the fires on dry weather and above average temperatures. translation: all the countries have expressed solidarity with brazil. they have offered to help tackle the wildfires but have also offered to take brazil's position to the g7 meeting. wildfires can happen anywhere and they should not be used as a pretext for international sanctions. the trade war between the us and china has taken yet another twist within the last couple of hours, president trump has further increased tariffs on chinese goods. making the announcement on twitter, the us president said that the 25% tariffs he'd announced before will increase to 30% from the first of october. earlier, us markets tumbled with the dowjones closing down more than 600 points. the president's comments are part of an ongoing tussle with beijing. our business correspondent michelle fleury is in new york with the latest. donald trump vowed to respond to china's tar

talking about the threat of economic sanctions and that's the 1st report of its interest as the amazon fire cannot be an excuse for economic sanctions against syria when he was starting them so there were people banging pots and pans just like that used to do during that zuma reset government which was about to be. just dinner as a way of sowing the edges of against the president and the fact is i think brazilians are 1st of all yes the amazon belongs to brazil but it is global issue you know even for brazil cannot control the fires it is important for the world it's also i have got to think that's being talked about here is how are their squiers are in the believer in amazonas. borne in mind as well so what yes if you look at the amazon is our worst but global issue is so better it has to be brought up you know by all the interested parties basically andrew there's a lot of talk right now about holding trade deal simonian mention that there are potential sanctions are you finding ways with the stick rather than the carrots to you know bring brazil into line but i wanted to you know do

is how amazon handles all these 3rd party sellers that they massive network that has exploded on the scene over the years and really become too big for the company to moderate what's being sold so according to the newspaper's report amazon uses a combination of people and machines to flag products but they just can't keep up sometimes the only way to know who is selling a product is to look for the text that it's sold by amazon dot com but even then it appears customers daniels are on their own when it comes to determining if that product is actually safe so. really interesting report from the wall street journal yeah it's a shocking knowing that is the biggest e-commerce retailer and then you sort of assume well if there's a done larger retailer certainly the. appropriate authorities at the federal trade commission would be making sure that the products listed there are legal and safe but you said that not only are there also listing products that have been banned by amazon onto their own private label galleries as amazon choice yes yes you know that's exactly right you've got i mea

from previous dry seasons so yes in the amazon but in the dry season people used to. pastures and farmlands right now in brazil with the current government situation and unprecedented it is promoting organized crime for forests carrying using fire yes and and also killing of indigenous people who are trying to protect that and the land ok so you're saying there's a there's an element of criminality involved criminality an organized organized crime for that you know terry the amazon produces 20 percent more oxygen are these farmers threatening our oxygen supply for sure for sure but a muslin is really important for 3 reasons one it's a hot spot of biodiversity. it's the last vestiges where indigenous people in the in the natural ecosystem and as you've just mentioned it plays a really important climate function now scientific models show that if you get 25 percent of the amazon you have the oxygen you have an effect on the oxygen level which affects the climate and which reduces for example agricultural productivity up to 2550 percent in the region. to 40 percent bread

now hundreds of new fires are raging in brazil's amazon. in far as 10 president says military aircraft and 44000 troops will be made available to find the planes meanwhile france and ireland have threatened to target brazil's economy if the government doesn't do more to protect the amazon has more from cutting pruner that's an indigenous territory and state of rondo and here i am a 4 hour river trip to the sea but an hour river which is in the far north west of brazil in the amazon there's smoke in the air there's ashes in the air this is a community that 1st made contact with the outside world made 1st made contact with in 1978 so a very rustic way of life but there are people from this community who have traveled to europe or to united nations in geneva they've spoken to the european union they've spoken to merkel sore in south america about their conditions here they say that there's a regular incursions into their territory that developers set fires which cannot be controlled quite often and so they are calling for the international com

and this was filmed there showing how far the amazon wildfires have reached in the video it has been viewed more than 15000000 times and people online have mostly criticized the lack of international media coverage asking why now when the wildfires have been burning for almost 3 weeks so far some including the world wide fund charity to comparisons on twitter to the global attention that's been given to the not saddam inferno in france of course that happened earlier this year on asking why there isn't the same level of outrage for what's happening in the amazon and the criticism hasn't stopped there because twitter users have mostly accused brazilian president diables nar of dismissing the severity of. the situation including allowing looking deforestation is forcing out some of the millions of indigenous people living in the amazon and i j plus team here al jazeera has put together this video on why brazil's indigenous women are taking a strong stand has that been a matter. i thought it actually looks a little bit.

so the fires in the amazon follow very much the deforestation rate in the amazon. so the deforestation rate this year is increasing competitive the previous yea rs. as increasing competitive the previous years. as it is, the number of fires in the amazon. it is not a record in the history but is at least 60% higher than the previous three years orfour higher than the previous three years or four years higher than the previous three years orfouryears in higher than the previous three years orfour years in history. higher than the previous three years or four years in history. and why is this happening? for several reasons for that. —— there is several reasons for that. we're starting the dry season now increases the possibility of fire in the amazon. but it's really important to note that there is an increasing limits of fires to convert forest, to put pastor in the forest and this is very much in, that's a incentivised by our government here in brazil. whenjair by our government here in brazil. when jair bolsonaro by our government here in brazil. whenjair bols

this is not something which has just amazon. this is not something which hasjust come amazon. this is not something which has just come up. this amazon. this is not something which hasjust come up. this is part of an integral part of the president's policy, environmental policy, farming policy, he does regard the arms are not something to be protected but something to be economically exploited. so i am very sceptical, unfortunately, at stewa rt‘s sceptical, unfortunately, at stewart's the extent the international community to moderate the stance of the brazilian president. the stance of the brazilian president.

he is encouraging further mining in the amazon, further farming in the amazon, he has sacked the head of the space research energy who produced pictures showing that the fires were particularly bad. he gives the impression of someone bad. he gives the impression of someone who is not overly concerned with deforestation. well, don't rely on impressions. what i am seeing is he has already sent more than 16,000 soldiers, brazilian soldiers to fight the fires. so i think that he is concerned about the health of the amazonian. but at the same time, he is protecting brazilian sovereignty. but how do you protect brazilian sovereignty at the same time as dealing with the problem that clearly affects the whole world? would you like to see a different approach in south america that takes approach in south america that takes a regional approach to this problem, rather than a national approach? well, we are taking a regional approach. right now, many countries in latin america are helping brazil and other countries to fight these fires. for instance, chile has sent many world planes to help comba

you know, amazon prime is arguably amazon's most important product. and jeff concluded, it's probably not worth the money, which is probably not something that amazon really wants to be hearing here. in general, journalists are very independent and adealistic bunch. and i would think that you would hear from folks from "the post" if they felt like they were being, you know, pressured to cover amazon in a particular way. >> it's why we make sometimes annoying ploys, too, i think. >> sure, absolutely. >> independent and definitely want to do our own thing. brian fung, thank you so much. a quick programming note. cnn special report "the age of amazon" premieres this friday night. poppy harlow sitting down with an exclusive interview about the former publisher of "the washington post" and asking him about claims just like bernie sanders made against the paper. plus, we spend hours with amazon's top executives reporting this over the past six months. this is going to premiere this friday at 9:00 p.m. eastern. >>> and we do have some more on our breaking ne

asa saying how much he loved the amazon. as a military man and former army captain, he spent time there and he would defend the forest. that is a change of tone because, as we heard during the campaign he was talking about developing, opening up the indigenous reserves for logging and mining and there has been a change of tone there in his speech about the environment. how worried has he been about the statements we have heard from the eu, for example, saying it may not sign this huge trade deal and the g7 wants to talk about the fires. i think everyone was taken by surprise in brazil including people who have been trying to protect the arm is on especially the president on thursday and again on friday. the french president was very strong in his state m e nts president was very strong in his statements and the threat of sanctions against brazil, of banning, for example, beef imports, much of which is produced in the amazon on, that created a lot of problems for president bolsonaro in his constituency, the people who produce

under their own private label charities as amazon choice yes yes. yes you know that's exactly right you've got i mean on amazon's website they've got a list of all the things that are essentially banned in the wall street journal's reporters went in there and started looking at all these different items they found some that were banned by amazon themselves and yet were still allowed to be on the web site so it is interesting that it's essentially what the wall street journal calls and enormous flea market and that nobody's really monitoring the flea market if you will that is just a bunch of people selling things and put them up for grabs and amazon sort of backpedaling a little bit now saying we're doing the best that we can you know this is just trying to make the distinction between somebody buying from the company and buying from another vendor do amazon but the company takes no legal responsibility danial for their unsafe products because technically they aren't selling it they're just providing a platform for other people to do that so many pr
