germany's 1st nuclear accident happened here to work as died. but rather than say, they never felt unsafe. the installation functions without problems, they could easily continue. they've invested so much money into other countries and produce and continue to build nuclear power plant. and we shut them down such a waste for decades, germany as you know, waiting for the anti nuclear protest, especially after the channel will explosion in 1986 into dan. sophia unions. radio active particles were found as far away as bavaria. and after the accident in fukushima in japan and 2011, the merkel government close 8 of its 17 nuclear plants immediately promising to shut down the rest by next year. close and gotten a new clay plan does not just a matter of shutting down reactors and locking the gates, dismantling will take years. and then there's a problem of radioactive waste which could contaminate the area for thousands of years. and that's not

a burden potency to put on future generations. but not everyone within the e u agrees. france and the netherlands, even planning to build new nuclear plants, asking that european union to include atomic power in the list of sustainable investments to make the transition to clean energy skin for what we need to do is to find that the economy that allows us to pursue our industrial choices to be consistent with the objective of the card when ising, our economy. as a group of german scientists is calling on the government to reverse its incision, they say shopping, the nuclear plants will force the country to use more fossil fuels. germany, definitely not your plans because their energy is such an environmentally benign energy source that can help you that can help you so much with the colonization in the future with providing source of energy. and therefore, it's the big mistake that germany is now accepting energy. while nuclear power is

the largest source of energy in france, in germany, it cancelled just 12 percent. to replace this, the new government has promised to speed up its production of wind and solar energy . the only way forward, according to me and the shares with part of a government team finding the solution for nuclear waste. in the german law, we are required to identify a location for a nuclear depository. that is expected to be safe for 1000000 years. that's a long time. it's a big challenge and that is of course, one of the big concerns if countries, as is now being discussed in europe, i choose to continue with nuclear energy or go into nuclear energy. what are we leaving behind for next generations to deal with? because we really haven't figured out what to do with this high level radioactive waste. germany has made up its mind, so it is to say, to nuclear power step,

star staff gary has become the 1st player and be history to score $3000.00 career. 3 pointers, a 33 year old achieve the feet and his sides last against denver nuggets. he'd already behind the leagues all tom, 3 points leader, 2 weeks ago when he passed re allen's mark of 2973 career triples. that record had stood for 11 years. curry's been in great form the season helping the warriors reach top spots in the western conference despite this defeats a thing with the n. b a and kobe 19 continues to impact the league on tuesday is severely depleted. minnesota timber wolf side went down against the new york knicks, stars call anthony towns. anthony edwards and the angela russell were all missing due to cove at 1900 protocols. minnesota, losing this 196 to 88, and they're not the only one suffering because of the pandemic. more than a 100 players are currently sidelined under the leagues coby 19 health and safety

protocols. some teams have been hit pretty badly. 10 toronto raptors players, for instance, were missing for their game on sunday. b and b. a however has not shifted from its stance, which was confirmed last week by commissioner adam silver. but it has no plans to pause the season. in fact, on monday, the show in quarantine for players that have tested positive, vaccinated players and coaches who are a symptomatic now only need to isolate for 6 days rather than 10 to show they're no longer infectious. earlier we spoke with andy analyst brandon robinson, and he said players and fans are split to what the leak should do next to try and combat the spread of the virus. 97 percent of the league is vaccinated. ah, but the crazy part about it all is the number of players more recently who have tested positive and who have sat out a while that that was one to my desk early this morning is that there have been a league high, $541.00 players and counting,

who have played in the $400.00 plus are slats allowed, are 4 players to play. and that's largely because the 10 day contracts and more so players are upset that they still have to play as the does the very him has continue to ravaged through a league at large. so like i said, it's a mixed bag. some guys enjoy plants. some guys are very cautious and live from the executive perspective. some put, some executives are surprised that and be a commission adam silver has not yet either gotten the bubble or postpone for a little. i think that in the eyes of many people, when are we going to go back to a bubble? it's not that easy as it b. m b a had to salvage a lot of when they created a bubble and they went to the walt disney, wal area, they get it done. i think because we've lived through pandemic for so long, i think the combination of, of money and advertising dollars with in regional sports networks and more the perception of people right now. many people are upset. i'm particularly

a commissioner, adam silver. and with that said, i don't think it's tarnish, but i think people are asking a lot of thought provoking questions, their question where they're going in the future. and you know, it's a lot of confusion. there are fresh doubts as to whether no back chalk rich will defend his australian open title next month. well, number one has withdrawn from serbia as 80 peak happ team. that events begins in sydney on saturday, jock, which has yet to speak publicly about his colleagues. 19 vaccination status, only players who are vaccinated or have a medical exemption will be allowed to compete at the australia then same national football league coach and broadcaster, john madden. his died at the age of $85.00. madden led the van oakland raiders to their 1st super bowl victory over the minnesota vikings in 1977 mad and later became a tv analyst and 116 emmy awards during his 30 year broadcasting career. we've been speaking to us or it's broadcaster michael carlson about what fat mat in parts with

the oakland raiders, the end of the sixties and into the seventy's. he constantly produced good teams although only one super bowl when but they were teams with such character. i'm really a cold kind of team sort of like a motorcycle gang out of out of oakland, you know, one tough player after another. and more importantly, he was able to stand up to al davis, who was the owner stroke general manager of the raiders. and he got davis to let him put together a team the way he wanted to do it, not the way al davis wanted to do it. and i think that made a huge difference in that really built his image. and it was the image that then took him on to other things which made him even more i can for most people. so he'll be remembered as a commentator because he was transformational as a commentator. he brought a coaches, i view to it, but expressed in,

in simple language. he didn't do what, what people do now to kind of prove they understand the game and use a lot of jargon and, and stuff. the audience can't necessarily follow. he was really down to earth and when he did a replay, he would go, you know, and you watch you watch big, all our little commodity boob. it's in there. and he was honest about what, what he saw as a, as a coach would be. and he was smart and he was funny. liverpool manager year can clog says he's doubtful. his side will be able to catch premier league leaders, manchester city, especially after performances like the one on tuesday. liverpool were defeated away at lester city, flipping to just their 2nd leave law of the season. mohammed fell a miss a 1st time penalty lester took the lead after the breakthrough. adam, all i look mon, i finished one no to lester. if the play like tonight, we don't have to think about catching up with city, but if you play a normal football we come in football games and we have to see how often,

how many points we can get. and then we will see what that means. but how is that? i don't have a proper explanation for tonight, but to find this explanation is my main concern. and not in this moment to get to city was fam, have 15 leave. they had to come back and go down against watford. algeria said ben rama putting them to one up, they went on to secure a 41 victory having gone into the match, which is 71 when in 7 games. in this year, we're now getting talked about team sol compete and the top half of the week you're 2 years ago, we'll get talk to a team who compete really in the bottom. so we're enjoying this position much better. and as i said, we've got a lot to do, we'll go improve them with a standards again, know we've got to up what we're doing and we're going to have to play better. and foreign. torres has joined barcelona for mattress city in a $60000000.00 deal. martha saying the 21 year old forward has signed a contract until june 2027 and

a team hoping to buy him during that term. we'll have to pay a release clause in excess of $1000000000.00. okay, and that is all you spoke and i was sammy back to you. thanks so much for that. sit for this news, al, but i'm back in a couple of minutes with another full bulletin, so to stay with us. ah, killing the debates, 90 percent of the world's refugees have come from a common impacted country. the climate emergency is putting more pressure on cities across the world and amplify your voice. it's not for you the future 8 now is not ours with people lock can get this completed. we cannot lose hope. we know what to do, and we have the tools to do to get back to the last page. this stream on al jazeera in 2002 coins and bank notes mark the launch of the euro today,
