to farmers the green gold. that's what they call this fruit, mitchell county, southwest mexico. in recent years, some have given the crop with different names, blood because those both are partly true. industry here is worth billions exporting to the us, but it's so lucrative, the criminal groups, a trying to muscle in we here in perry bone, with the ever called the farmers fighting back the town who set up its own self defense force. this is a drill session before they head out on patrol. some of these 3 brothers, a part of the force and own this grow. they don't want us to show their identity. they say they're up against one of the most powerful groups in mexico. and got to tell you 8 years ago the least go, new generation cartel came in here and wanted to take our land on. so we had to take up arms and defend our home. there were places close to our village where they

took groves and they killed the family. that meant that the mexican have called industry is worth upwards of $2000000000.00 a year. and the police go cartel isn't the 1st criminal groups go after it. the firm has battled another call, so called the knights templar. before them. do you feel frightened or fear about what you're doing? because you guys are a farmers and you suddenly become like it's sort of a smooth all me. and then with that and then and then with all the years that we've been fighting, now we're not scared of anyone. we're ready to give our lives. we're not scared anymore. and there are other color producing towns in the region who also had to defend themselves. the farmers here, so there are more than 2000 people in their force in several cells off the practice . it's this group turns her head out. i talk to one of the brothers we've met

earlier. now in battle dress. why you guys doing this? why isn't the police or another's force of security doing it? when we get to, the government ignores us. they sold themselves and they turn a blind eye. so it's up to us to come out and petrol the area because the national guard just petrol in tones where there is no risk. they admit that not everyone's happy with them being the dominant force in town. a group of men with lots of guns and little accountability carries obvious risks. but it doesn't seem to be a lot of choice in a region in which farms factories may tie production chains or in the sites of nar coast. i mean with the, with the mining major the traffic growth and everything for now though,

the foam is say they've been kept per been away from the green gold. john homan edge, is it a pretty bad and watch homeless news? special, a full report living in mexico's kilburn, that's at $1630.00 g m t on friday here. and there are 3 quarters of excess current of ours vaccines in the us will be donated to the global vaccine sharing program, known as kofax president, jo buttons as millions of doses will be shared across countries in latin america, asia, and africa. and fisher has more from whitehouse with cobra cases at the lowest level in the us for more than a year. with more than 40 percent of the population fairly vaccinated. the byte in ministration is turning his attention to the wider world. under a new plan just revealed the us. we'll send 25000000 doses abroad,

straight away with the intention to distribute at least 18000000 doses by the end of the month. our goal in sharing our vaccines is in service of ending the pandemic global. our overarching aim is to get as many safe and effective vaccines to as many people as fast as possible. it's as simple as that. we want to save lives and toward the very end, place all of us at risk. perhaps most important, this is just the right thing to do. the 1st $25000000.00 will be split between central and south america, asia and countries across the middle east, including gaza and the occupied west bank. in a statement president your biden insisted the wider distribution was a national security issue. seeing strong american leadership is essential to ending this pandemic now, and to strengthening global health security for tomorrow to better prevent, detect, and respond to the next threat. the u. s. says it will still have control over where the vaccines will go,

but it's emphasizing it's not looking for concessions or imposing conditions. it does, however, face a struggle to get back to the nation rates in the us up. many people know reluctant to get the job. and in some communities, vaccination rates are very low, that comes with a white house warning. we have millions of americans still in need of protection in communities at risk because of low vaccination rates. here's the bottom line. the bottom line is that if you are unvaccinated, you are still at risk of getting seriously ill or spreading the disease to others. all of the initial 25000000 doses will come from the federal stock pilot. all have been approved for us here in the united states. more doses will be made available as the stoke increase it allen fisher. i'll just eat at the white house. costa rica vaccine program is protecting people far quicker than its neighbors, but it's still not quick enough. the 2nd wave is become more entrenched and it's keeping visit to the way as gabriel is on the reports from san jose,

costa rica is witnessing a cooper 19 crisis. the number of infections more than doubled last month 267000. and the number of deaths, 810, was the highest since the start of the pandemic. a 2nd cope waive worse than the 1st, is keeping away most tourists who usually flock to this country. and for jimmy hernandez, a van driver and tour guide that is meant he has said little to do these days in order tourism right now, because of the pandemic has gone down almost 40 percent. it's affecting almost every one some days. we can't work other days, we can. so it's affecting us a lot. people say the situation everywhere is bad. so many places are close like businesses, so many people can't work and i'm unemployed. so this pandemic is so difficult. how it's affecting people financially, costa rica as

a country of 5000000 people. of those only 11 percent have been fully vaccinated. and well, that might not seem like a lot compared to most other countries in central america. it is according to the pan american health organization, the percentage of people fully vaccinated in el salvador is just a little lower. but then that figure slips to just under 8 percent in panama, and the rest of the region lags way behind in belize. it's just 2.6 percent of people fully vaccinated. ponderous, 0.4 percent water mala, 0.2 percent. and nicaragua, we're statistics are unclear. it's believed almost nobody from the public has been fully vaccinated. the united states has promised to make 80000000 vaccines available globally. good morning everyone. one of the us, but in it's visit here this week, the secretary of state antony blinking,

said it would be another 2 weeks before details can be announced in central america to help can't come fast enough gabriel's on ho. i'll jazz ita san jose costa rica. nasa has announced to new mission this to our closest and most overlooked neighbor and have shown so one of our soda systems, greatest mysteries. venus was once seen as es twin, but it ended up incredibly different from our own home. and we don't know why. a soviet spacecraft got their 1st landing on the sizzling surface in 967. surface temperatures above 450 degrees celsius because of a greenhouse effect. successive missions by nasa and the soviets over the years, even manage to send back pictures. showing volcanic lava flows on the planet harsh surface masses, next missions will try to find out how venous became the inferno just today. and if it was ever capable of posting life,

these 2 sister missions both aim to understand how venus became an inferno. like we're all capable of melting lead at the surface. they will offer the entire science community, the chance to investigate a planet we haven't been to in more than 30 years. the principal has an astro biologist and is on the science team for one of those venus missions, the da vinci plus he joins us from washington. d. c. thanks very much for being with us. it was your reaction to the fact these missions and got the go ahead. yeah, thanks so much for having me on the show. my reaction i just found out yesterday, this is something i've been literally working on trying to make happen for, for decades. ever since i got out of school and it was kind of disbelief and ecstasy, there was a lot of screaming and jumping and shouting, i scared my dog. so how, how different will it, will these missions be from any previous attempts to get information?

you know, we haven't had an american launch to venus since 989. and there, there has been a european space agency and a japanese space space agency mission. more recently they were small or bitters, but nothing this capable has ever been sent to venus. nothing that has dropped into the atmosphere with modern 21st century instrumentation or orbit the planet with a kind of detailed mapping that will have. so it's really going to be regulatory and an entirely new way of investigating our, our sister planet. you mention the atmosphere there. what does investigating atmosphere? tell us what, what's the point of that? well, there's a lot of mystery to venus. we believe it started off similar to earth and there may have been an orgy origin of life there. but of course today the intense greenhouse climate very high, you can have no water, no life on the surface. so we want to know what happened and when it happened,

and why? so by investigating very precisely what the atmosphere is made out of. and what's the composition and the structure at different layers? we can piece together that story of how the 2 planet be innocent. earth diverged. and what about the idea that perhaps there were there were oceans that tell us a little bit about that? well, we think there were, we have some sort of circumstantial evidence, chemically, and in terms of how we believe the planet formed that tell us being a should have gotten a similar amount of water as earth, but there's none there today. so we think it all escape the space as the sun heated up. and so we have sort of a story about that, but we want to confirm it and we want to know how long those oceans lasted. and of course, that's a really loaded question because oceans mean the potential provides on a planet. and we think we have the, the right instruments on, on this upcoming mission that will really be able to tell us, was there an ocean and how long was it there? what kind of challenges?

i mean, obviously we said it's incredibly hot. so presumably the kidneys and needs to, to be able to resist that. yeah, it's a very challenging environment to explore, which is one of the answers to why haven't we explored venus as much as a mars? it's not easy. so you have to protect against the sulphuric acid crowds by coating the instruments and using the right kind of materials for windows. you can't use glass for windows because it gets edged by salt. the gas it, it becomes opaque. so you have to use things like diamonds for windows, and if you go down to the lower atmosphere, you have to radio back your readings, your measurements, your picture is very quickly before you come to the heat or you have to design something that can last than that in this case, we're just going to drop down, take measurements, returned them very quickly, before the spacecraft dies because of the heat. tell us about the, the surface of it. i mean, other suggestion that might be active volcanoes there. how will those be investigated? yeah, we think they're active volcanoes, but again, we haven't seen

a volcano going off. so a couple of things. one again investigating the atmosphere with that entry probe will look for gases that have to be coming from volcanoes. there are some signatures in the atmosphere that we can tell that it must be from an active volcano. but also the other mission is going to be mapping venus very precisely and much more detail than we've mapped before. and just by looking at the geological shapes and at the spectra, the emission coming off of different land forms, we think we'll be able to see the tell tale signs of active volcanoes going from thank you very much indeed for sharing going to doesn't with us. thank you. ok, thanks a lot. still to come on out here. don't stare and don't give food. china warns urban residence to stay away from a herd of wild elephants on a mammoth track across the country. and the sport, the women as well as tennis number one, is the latest of the big names, forced to pull out of the french open. ah

ah, the news ah, me ah

ah ah, humans need to restore nature on vast areas of our planet to survive. starvation, environmental destruction and climate change, that's according to a new report by the un, which says we're taking $1.00 times the amount of resources that the earth can actually replenish and conservation efforts alone won't be enough to prevent an ecosystem collapse. the report calls for more than 10000000 square kilometers of land to be restored over the next decade. that's roughly the size of china. if it can be pulled off, it may help avoid nearly 2 thirds of expected bio biodiversity extinction and

increased food security for more than 1000000 people. in anderson is executive director of the u. n. environment program, she says land destruction could threaten no very survival. the world has decided that the united nations that they wanted to really focus this coming 10 years on restoration 1000000000. the heck test that we have over exploded, degraded through our human activity. we need to put it back into working order. why? because we still need to feed the world, we still need to ensure that we can't live as humanity. and we can't do that if we continue to degrade the very land that sustains us. so the opportunities, yes, we protect what has not yet been interfered with. what we put back into working landscape that which we have degraded and it is so very doable each one of us know it from our back gardens. if we give that off from the fields where we work,

if we give major half a chance, it will bounce back. it just needs a little helping hand. so this is an initiative where we are working with the finance sector. obviously, we need to have farming on board and government science and communities to move on restoration, but it would be essential for food and for climate. government have tended to look at short termism, but smart governments look longer term because once land becomes 3rd time again, once land can sustain a population, once people do not have to migrate from the places you get healthy, a better and more stable and less insecure. society's tumbler sport and his sorrow relates his round qualify matches for the 2022 will come from cats are being held across asia and south america. the 10 south american sized states. we feel them a growing current of our cases and civil unrest. those faxes,

it's argentina and columbia being strips of hosting rights for the upcoming corporate america. it's one that is now set to be held in brazil, even though it's the worst effect country in the region with coven 19. well, daniel was trying to, le, joins us now from one is aries. now let's start with corporate america, which will start on june 13 other than 20 of confusion in south american civil movement over the tournament. over the top of the month and marcel's decides, and then we had columbia and dodge and tina preparing to host this event. and then days before it's due to kick off in k call. they change the venue to brazil was ill . probably the only country in a position with the infrastructure and the experience the host told them like this . short notice, they get through host the world cup in 2014 the last corporate america in 2019. so

they've been scurrying to get everything ready to stay ready for that competition. they do. so of course have a president enjoyable scenario. who is, it was down play the importance, the severity of the cobra. 19 pandemic? could it nothing was in a little flu, urges brazilians to get on with business. life is normal and hosting restore them for him is very much part of that. but that has been opposition that have been criticisms from the funds from players from managers saying that brazil probably isn't ready. as you mentioned, those could be 19 cases keep going up. the hospitals on the pressure protests on the streets against them hosting the tournament. so yes, a great deal of confusion but the will goes on. well, i mean despite all the protests, as you said, the games is still hot and they know you guys aren't tina thinking on today later on thursday for the counter will qualify. what kind of atmosphere all we expect? thing given the, the situation, the pandemic and what kind of 19 measures are in place if there are any,

at the moment where there's plenty here. and i can see, you know, we've just come out of a very tight lockdown. 79000 people have died from the pandemic. we have an outreach of about 32000 new cases registered every day. this particular match against chile is being paid well out of when a fire is in the northern province of santiago de la sterile. there was confusion when 3 of the players, including so you're aware all well 1st of all, tested positive for the virus, then negative for the time that was sorted out. there was no time for them to get on the plane with the rest of the squad to head up to santiago stero so they wouldn't be playing empty stadium as always, there is interest. obviously there's always interested in football here in argentina. but people have far more in their minds at the moment. the fact is being played well out of the way from the capital. a very difficult situation,

but people will be watching at home on their televisions. great, thanks a lot to that. and one area thankfully update on moving on, the federation of african journalists has condemned was it cause attempts by external elements from united arbor most to manipulate journalists in africa campaign against the catholic 2022 world cup. now the body has called on fif on the governing body of african football to investigate. and once those responsible to be sanction theory was one of the arab countries that impose the blockade on katherine 2017, which came to an end earlier this year. cats are, will be the 1st country in the middle east to stage the world cup. now we've been speaking to our family, a, who's president of gone a john this association and the board member of the federation of african jo. this he says he wants african jonas to be left to do their job. journalism should not be drawn issues. i find you says scope of mileage.
