Prosecutors in Los Angeles in San Francisco say Uber Technologies has agreed to pay 10 million dollars as part of a 25-million-dollar settlement to end a civil lawsuit against it in California. The app-based taxi services faced accusations of misleading customers about its checks on drivers. Dave Lee reports from San Francisco. If you want to drive a traditional taxi in California, you need to provide a fingerprint to check for prior convictions. But to drive an Uber, that's not necessary as the company uses a different system to vet its drivers. So when Uber advertised itself as the safest drive on the road, authorities cried foul. Prosecutors said Uber missed 25 people with prior convictions including several sex offenders and a convicted murderer. Uber has agreed to change how it advertised its safety procedures, but the BBC understands it will not be adding finger printing to its vetting process.

The World Bank has launched an action plan to spend 50% more on projects to help developing countries cope with climate change, details from Mark Pivac. There is a growing consensus that poorer countries would be more vulnerable to climate change than richer ones. So the Washington based Work Bank is raising special spending to 3.5 billion dollars by 2020 and it hopes to encourage even more from the private sector. Part of the plan envisages boosting enough renewable energy to power 150 million homes. It also proposes an investment in what it calls climate smart agriculture for 40 countries and more spending on green transport. Top bank officials said the plans are a bold response to last December's landmark global climate conference in Paris. World news from the BBC.
