we have an economic system. that defines success as and less economic growth and much of that growth is is connected to an ideology of endless consumption and that is incompatible with what our planet can take and so we need a different economic paradigm for this much needed change the renowned intellectual uses the phrase heard a lot these days the green new deal refers to reforms implemented by former us president franklin d. roosevelt a series of strategies that managed to overcome the great depression in the 1930 s. strategies of the green new deal could include investing in jobs agriculture public housing national parks and museums when he talked about the depression he wasn't only talking about the economy being depressed but also people were to press right so. how do you lift up the people spirit and part of that was need access to nature
10:47 pm
and part of that was access to the arts. and also have for kids improve community spirit and the strongest social safety net she says many environmental policies at the lower class the hardest for example in france where fuel tax rises sparked weeks of violent protests along with the climate crisis social pressure increases. and populism benefit from that their answer to the crisis being racial execution. i think every human on this planet on some level is aware that our home is in crisis that something is not right in our world that breakdown in within the living systems that support life on earth creates feelings of panic and because we don't have policies on the table that are really solving the problem it creates a very flammable political environment where these figures can come in and pick
10:48 pm
populations against each other it's time to take to the streets again the climate conference in madrid won't magically solve the crisis and still hopeful she sees a chance for a green new deal a real one that deserves the name we just need to be brave enough to look into our green future. clint eastwood's obviously has no intention of retiring now $89.00 he's directed an average of one movie a year there you see his latest is richard jewell the true story of a terrible miscarriage of justice richard jewel was a security guard who discovered a bomb lympics back in 9096 and having raised the alarm and saved lives he was later accused of planting the bomb. when he finds suspicious package at centennial park richard jewel plays the hero out of the. so i can remember to push
10:49 pm
back for what richard crazy. well i would rather crazy that i. he's not wrong his quick thinking saves hundreds of lives but the media thinks richard jewel looks more like a dangerous loner goal fits the profile of the lone bomber a frustrated white man who is a police want to be who seeks to become a hero. to 30 to go. to. the f.b.i. to try to pin the crime one joule. is very important. they catch somebody so they just got somebody new just grabs richard drew. clint eastwood's portrait of an ordinary american hero is brought to life by actor paul walter hauser in a role he was born to play. we're trying to argue what a man who is convicted in the press before the age of social media scripts we don't
10:50 pm
lead on this story what are we doing here ok we're running it turned into until the end jewel believes in the system and they took my babies my disney movie. they did it because i want to see if we mount a record of. a political statement or so. i do you keep defending these people. under siege playing well so be it richard jewel was painted with a very unfair brush stroke or 2 or 3. and because of that people never acknowledged his humanity this film is a man music yes woods taught tale of a miscarriage of justice feels all too perfect and is certain to provoke discussion and debate long after the fun real. bomb and soon to new york pork you have 30 minutes. with me now is the author of that report and
10:51 pm
a man who was at the world premiere along with a lot of other journalists in los angeles scott wrote. what was it like feels amazing i mean just to be in the presence of a clint eastwood of course he's a living legend as you budget 89 not slowing down i mean this is his 3rd film in 2 years it's incredible and i think it's probably his best film since probably american sniper what i always love about clint eastwood is what a clear structured sense he has to his his films is always very clear what he wants to show what he wants to tell i mean i think law the best parts of this movie are when he takes the f.b.i.'s key. against richard jewel and sort of odd rivals it piece by piece we saw that in a scene the end of the piece where the f.b.i. gets richard jewel to they trick him basically to repeat the real bombers 9 $11.00 call i also picked out another scene from the film that shows sort of how precise director clint eastwood is and in this in the film the richard jewel's lawyer is
10:52 pm
going over some of the facts the case when he realizes that his client really is innocent let's take a look we also know that richard was inside the park near the santa light hour at 1257 and bill miller called the backpack and he would have to cover the distance in one minute. i mentioned here on average one for me. i mean how does he do it yeah i mean he's incredibly fast and how he works i mean it helps that he always use the same camera man the same crew so well oiled machine they know what they're doing but he also is famous for never doing more than one take he sets up the shot gets all the actors know what they want to make sure they know the lines does one take gets what he needs and moves on oh so the actors have to have their toes yeah you know there's been some criticism about how one of the journalists in the movie
10:53 pm
was portrayed take us through that this is the journalist who's patrolled by libya wild in the film is based on a real journalist who is a lanthorn newspaper reporter and she was the one who originally broke the story that the f.b.i. was looking into richard jewel as a suspect in the bombing now all that's true that's not debated but in the way that you would portray as this journalist he seems to suggest that she traded sex for information with some of her with some of her sources now there's 0 evidence for that and the newspaper the newspaper has threatened to sue warner brothers the makers of the movie for the unfair. picture i have to say one of the facts the case are the trail of the journalist in this film is the weakest bit of the film it's the only point where it was sort of this character. in this approach. yeah i kind of dismissed that argument i think it has to do with the fact that we're judging everything based on what can't people are in and people put clint eastwood
10:54 pm
in the conservative camp and judge just as proton film i don't see it that way i see it as a really well done movie about an unsung american hero and a warning to not judge based on appearances to not jump to just scott as always thanks very much and we hope that mr eastwood's is perhaps nominated with this movie maybe making keeps going on for that safe thanks anyway. gov and a kind of wood carving 2 years ago was listed as intangible world heritage by unesco which is trying to preserve and keep traditional skills around the world live and this particular wood carving craft has been combined with modern design by a company called santa at creating completely new furniture which is proving very popular with discerning clients. this method of wood carving by hand is an age old craft. but the pieces in this workshop in conyers and mark antiques and luxury

10:56 pm
a swedish designer. internationally renowned designer monica 1st lives in stockholm and normally works for well established brands such as the italian label and bessie she took on the challenge of transporting the traditional craft into the 21st century. they show. there are a vision of combining the traditional with the modern their creations are one of a kind on the design market. i've looked at it with my sort of scandinavian eyes or more humanistic minimalist and extracted hard the carving and really applied it in a new way the brothers or hannah and i don't want their blend of modern design and traditional craftsmanship to become far more than an insider's team.
