obviously the big. one for earth you need to start september 18th on g.w. . this is deja vu news live from berlin. on the defensive after the media report just berridge the american war dead. us president is just disputing reports he called for all american soldiers and marines losers on a visit to france because versity is placing support for the military front and center the presidential campaign also coming up. india's coronavirus cases surpass

4000000 countries leading the world as new infections the government is sticking to plans to ease restrictions open up the economy. on nick spicer thanks for joining us the american presidential race has taken on a new turn following comments allegedly made by the commander in chief of the u.s. armed forces president donald trump is reported to have disparaged americans killed in battle in europe the atlantic magazine broke the story said trump refused to visit an american military cemetery in france because it was quote filled with losers. also allegedly referred to marines who lost their lives as quote suckers for getting killed. part of the story had been corroborated by other news outlets including the usually. fox news but trump strongly denies he ever made the comments

you know it's a fake story written by a magazine that was probably not going to be around much longer but it was a totally fake story and that was confirmed by many people who were actually there it was a terrible thing that somebody could say the kind of things and especially to me because i've done more for the military then almost anybody else. but whether true or not the story has angered many veterans and has taken a grip on the u.s. election democratic presidential nominee joe biden jumped on the story and had this to say president trump has demonstrated he has no sense of service no loyalty to any cause other that himself. 5 yonder be the next commander in chief i will ensure that our american heroes know i have their backs honor their sacrifice and those who've been injured

will be in military parades. let's bring in chad henry now a long time national security correspondent in washington d.c. and a former marine captain who's reported extensively on veterans' issues chad thanks for being with us how credible do you think these reports are. well so far nick as you know all of the sourcing has been anonymous no one has come out and said you know i am this person i was there and i heard this but more and more agencies are as you say confirming this but again with the name sources so we look at trends so for instance in the 2016 campaign we saw the president berate john mccain for his experience as a prisoner of war and by implication other people who had been prisoners of war undergone torture saying that this wasn't heroic endeavor we saw him berate the father of an army captain who had died in iraq

a book that came out early this year said that in early $72017.00 early in the president's administration he was in a meeting at the pentagon with the nation's top military leaders and at that time he called them a bunch of dopes and babies for being engaged in what he called a loser war in afghanistan as you note a fox news correspondent jennifer griffin who has been on the national security be for a long time has confirmed she says with 2 i think these are former trump administration officials who were on that trip to france verifying the story that the atlantic put forward about the president's remarks so. we don't know from a particular source who's come out and said it openly but the trending would make this potentially believable yeah sounds like a pretty large trend as you describe it do you think though given there's an election ongoing could it have any effect on public opinion in the final 2 months of the presidential race potentially people have all sorts of things that they

think about him worry about and are concerned about as they head into the ballot box but. we know that veterans. can look at present trumpet see some things that he's done for them he's encouraging signs of legislation that allowed the v.a. to better hold accountable bad leaders within that agency created a hotline for veterans if they felt their cases weren't being handled with sufficient speed and has built on programs from the previous administration and actually try to take credit for the entire program. having to do with providing civilian medical care it's a veterans nearer where they are so there are things that the veterans and people with concerns about veterans and people in the military can look to and and appreciate among a mix present but the idea that a commander in chief would speak disparagingly is something that would have been difficult for anyone to believe even if one thought that the commanders in chief in the past were cynical they would they would praise and speak well of military

people who are in order to ensure that they continue to do what's necessary to secure the national defense and i just jump in print you want to think you are a marina and just briefly understand it his alleged comments offended many marines why is that well the battlegrounds of belo would are our sacred to u.s. marines what u.s. marines did there was really put themselves on the map in u.s. defense history. instead of digging trenches as had been done in europe before and that they had been encouraged to do by some of the european allies dug shallow holes and over the 1st half of june 1800 suffered $10000.00 can nearly $10000.00 casualties $800.00 of those dead fighting and brutal hand to hand combat with bayonets and so to to attack seemingly a touchstone of that a much more eans particularly would be really. something that would be strongly

pushed back ok once has henry thanks so much for that insight my pleasure nick thanks. health authorities in india say the country has now exceeded $4000000.00 coronavirus cases it's another bleak milestone for the country which has recorded nearly $2000000.00 new infections this month alone india has the 3rd highest total worldwide behind us and brazil even so restrictions in india have been eased as the government pushes to open up the country again. making sure new delhi's metro system will be ready to reopen on monday like much of the country public transport has become one of the victims of this pandemic. a pandemic that's caused india to suffer its was ever economic downturn.

a shock women's business is one of millions that's been hit. a lot of what i'm gonna. do we have to open up the economy we have to lift restrictions otherwise no work is possible many jobs related to the delhi metro like rickshaws once the economy opens up will start doing more business a lot of the a lot of. india is recording around 80000 new cases of covert 19 a day and has already passed 4000000 infections. no wonder there's concern that the relaxation of restrictions could be happening too quickly . the legality of the public isn't very aware that corona virus hasn't been eliminated yet they think because the lockdown has been lifted the pandemics over you don't see much social distancing anywhere everybody with. the government says it's doing all it can to keep india safe but with infection numbers still on the

rise it will take more than a deep cleaning to stop the spread. let's have a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world thousands of israelis are protesting outside prime minister benjamin netanyahu his residence in jerusalem to demand his resignation some protesters are carrying signs that read revolution project in the words enough with you on a nearby wall anger over the government's handling of the coronavirus crisis is fueling the demonstrations. german president frank walter steinmeier has said germany should consider an official memorial ceremony for victims of code 19 he said many relatives of people who died did not get to see their loved ones because of quarantine restrictions germany has fared better than many nations in the pandemic but more than 9000 people have died there is likely no climate activists now more famous than great and to berg over the last 2 years the

swedish teenager has become the face of a global youth movement to fight climate change now she's having her story told at the venice film festival the highly anticipated documentary i have greater aims to provide a more complete picture of the activist and put the climate crisis back in the spotlight. and out of the. middle of the whole world knows her name. the documentary about the climate activist showing out of competition at the venice film festival. i am by nathan grossman follow the young suite for one year. if i can be so kind of also written so that people can identify more with what the climate crisis is understand it's more than then i. but i guess the thing then is also

struggling to cope with the effects of climate change the city suffering from floods almost every year climate experts warn the city will at some point be submerged. direct and i think grossman who's visiting venice for the 1st time says a change of direction has long been needed and it's such a beautiful city it's such an heritage and i actually thought to myself when i saw the. this this from south 6 truck church that it would be such a such a sad thing to see a place like this devastated by a rise in sea level of course to a world that did not come to venice she joined the conversation by video link from high school the film is expected to be released internationally in november this year. and for more on this let's bring in scott roxboro from d.w. culture who is standing by for us in venice scott is this film about berg one of the big talking points and how the festival how's it been received.

yeah definitely it was one of the most highly anticipated films before the festival and has been really well received i mean it is a fairly conventional documentary it's not super cinematic or anything but it's central figure is so compelling and and such a powerful presence on screen that she sort of carries the film along and you do really in this documentary get a bit to know get to know a bit about the personal data to back up we see her with her family we see her traveling particularly with her father who's sort of a comic relief figure in the documentary and i think this picture of a girl who's in some ways a very ordinary teenager makes her incredible accomplishments all the more more astounding i thought it was an incredibly powerful film and gives us a really new insight to this this this global icon. we hear there's been a lot of sort of political themes of the films that in the festival this year is

the theme maybe the little bit less hollywood usual. yeah definitely i mean that has to do as well because hollywood didn't send their films to venice this year because they're holding them back because of the corona crisis so that's left some space for more political cinema of political documentaries like the great of documentary but also political dramas i mean a couple of days ago i saw an incredible bosnian film called. i dida which is about the. massacre of 1905 told from the perspective of a u.n. translator bosnian u.n. translator and it's a very wrong very very direct and powerful film that shows cinema doesn't have to be just entertain and it can also. really pay historical witness and i'm really happy to see that it is this year has made space for these kinds of political messages and of course the film industry has been struggling like every other news through the coronavirus and is hoping for

a restart at the at the festival does venice have anything special to offer in that regard. you know definitely definitely mean it's a huge event for the film industry worldwide that venice is taking place is taking place in a physical form because film lives from a height and that's what provided that's what venice hopes provides to really restart the film industry worldwide ok to be scott prosper in venice thanks for that. and finally to sports in formula one defending champion lewis hamilton has recorded his 94th pole position after topping qualifying for sunday's italian grand prix and hamilton made history in the process recording the fastest lap ever in formula one the britain will share the front of the grid with team mate paul terry bought us as mercedes dominated the field yet again meanwhile it was a dreadful performance by ferrari on home turf the german driver sebastian vettel

trailed in his 17th miserable season continues. your of course watching news live from berlin shift is next looking at how drones in use to help people be pandemic also you can step date on our web site to tell you dot com and follow us on twitter and instagram all next parser for me and the entire news team thank you for watching. what secrets lie behind. discover new adventures in 360 degree. and explore fascinating world heritage sites cool w. world heritage 368 getting up now. in view

of climate change. closer to their sit. ups are still. going to do years today have the future of. g.w. dot com african american students film making it. clear cut or. shift special how drones are helping humans during the krona virus pandemic and beyond. the code 900 pandemic has given drones acoustic piano and aerial vehicles are being used to disinfect streets and remind people of lock down measures and still never food as well as other supplies. this is a promo clip from the irish startup model the company was set to begin testing its

food delivery by. drone service in march. but then came the coronavirus pandemic now monitors flying its drones to a small town called money gall instead we're delivering critical food supplies pharmacy products that happens at the child or kooning during the cunt and. the advantage of drones that they can deliver goods to lock down areas without individual people having to come into contact. 70 year old fidel like lease an order bread and milk or medications also being delivered directly toward doorstep absolutely fantastic and let's see if it by joel and i thought i'd never see the day. and he wouldn't have my care and. could have just. a single drone can make up to $100.00 deliveries per day manas founder bobby healy says that if the government wants the start of could be delivering to $600.00 smaller towns across ireland by the end of the year. what's more

he says monitoring the autonomy drones could be a job for airline pilots currently out of work because of the chronic crisis. in the upper yard she like its municipal workers who are operating drones the beach town began using drones for ocean rescues to monitor forest and brush fires. now drones are also supplying elderly people in remote areas with medications disinfectant and facemasks the nearest pharmacy is about 2 hours away on foot. this resident says it's necessary for them to come to us where we live is remote but the distance doesn't count only the goodwill of the people. these examples show how creative individuals worldwide are using the technology to help overcome covert 900 challenges. several african countries like qualified john experts to help overcome this allowing unicef i found

at the african. to me very young africans can learn to build and operate. here deborah getting a flying license. will observe that. she's one of the 1st students at africa's 1st drawn academy. deborah plans to use what she's learned during the program to help her native country. many things going. from here we had we had. the jones designing of the payload. trees and it's hard to reach. being able to fly drones accurately it's important and hard to reach areas so from commuters to 5 meters over this 10 meter range.

the curriculum demands a lot from the 26 students currently enrolled around half are female most and all are from africa this was one of unicef's conditions for financially supporting the academy. africa many times has been far behind in technology and we think drones are the future we want them to start their own businesses join current business is really building up the journey industry and being more than just pilots to this and her fellow students learn to construct a pilot drawn integrate them into supply chain systems and analyze drawn data. i really feel a great in the face being. basically as a woman and as you presenting. this lab is not far from the academy. deborah comes from humble background herself if the drone program weren't free of charge she wouldn't be able to afford it. i mean we are finding these drones use

a food to. be disease outbreaks at some point and it was a good. challenge. season by season different of. also because of these different seasonal agricultural challenges malawi hopes drones can help protect small farmers like david george. the country is spearheaded using drones and data in 2017 it open the world's 1st drone testing corridor. here companies like martin carroll's employer can test their drone solutions. martinus testing how to supply remote villages with medicines and surveying the region to identify areas at risk from flooding. it's a hard situation and because you know it's a lot of families have a lot of history in the areas that they've grown up and i don't want to move our goal is to be able to provide the evidence showing that you know this is prone to

flooding and this is where it could happen where if we move to this area could be less and less prone to flooding. so far drug companies like arrow can't find enough qualified personnel in africa to cademy is supposed to change that you see that today is a special day for debra her presentation on digital maps as part of her final exam if everything works out she'll soon be a qualified drone pilot and technician. to specialize in land surveying in order to help alleviate hunger and starvation in malawi she knows what it means to be poor and her own family never had much. her uncle currently lives in a slum. he's proud of his niece and she visits him often. in number all students in malawi interest the voice that is she is the future and

he she is the 1st type of the group that has shown interest even drawn to go so we're going to see a future form allowed for. the drone industry looks set to grow rapidly and deborah hopes to be a part of it she wants to found her own company that works with drones focused on helping those in need in malawi and beyond. more than 10 years. has been working on a call to. help save people buried in rubble earthquakes often cost many human lives. in the summer of 2016 these images from central italy shocked the world. the earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 very hundreds of people and destroyed entire villages. knows the pictures all too well he grew up in

a region often affected by earthquakes. these events are actually shocking fortunately i was never actually affected personally it was not in the middle of disaster bot of course these things that you personally and i always wanted to be able to actually help other people who might acknowledge what. the scientists dream is to develop a truly autonomy micro drone to be used in search and rescue scenarios. and yet the professor for robotics and his team have been working on this project for more than 10 years. old so the idea that we should be something whatever disaster there firefighters at the scene of action i drive today plays all these ouster and it will finally find its way through the building. find also its way you know the free space within the building you can also mock the environment localized

where the victims are drawing and then find its way out from the building. the design is already largely completed the small drone has been equipped with cameras that it uses to scan the surroundings and onboard computer and then analyzes the captured images and extracts prominent reference points to create a detailed 3 d. map. this allows it to locate potential survivors of course the drone also needs to reach them and that presented a problem. earthquakes can reduce everything to rubble in order to reach people trapped within a drone would have to be able to get through narrow passages and type tunnels. the solution a drone that can adapt to its surroundings by folding and reshaping itself. for independently rotating propellers are attached to mobile arms thanks to servo

motors these can swivel around the main body allowing the drone to fold into an ocean to pass through holes. to inspect an object from up close they can turn into a t. shirt. and it can reposition its arms to put through narrow passages. and. the drone flies autonomy asli using a special software that registers points on structures and follows the multiplier. this enables the drone to constantly calculate its own exact location and speed. a training ground close to. this is where re dog the swiss society for rescue dogs trains for emergency situations. when looking for buried person or after an earthquake nothing beats a dog's nose but there are limits if

a building is at risk of collapsing the mission is too dangerous for humans and animals re doc thinks these are situations where a drone could be useful. although the drone is foldable which is great because it can enter buildings through tiny openings and that's really important as pathways can be very small. autonomy's flying is another great feature as cable is communications and connections often get interrupted in the rubble. we don't use his telescope cameras to look inside buildings. but these can only extend some 5 meters after that there's no way forward. there's going to be a force during the i think drones would be great as one of several tools for instance if i use the camera and realize that there's a large hollow space in that i can't go further but i need to and the drone is

a great addition and some. whole another helpful feature would be a microphone with intercom peters' that way i could communicate with somebody very far away inside a building and that would also be really important the smell of open minds which take. me to scott i'm also takes these needs to heart at the moment whether he's primarily working on battery life on the drone speed. bit by bit i followed the only solution between 20 and 30 minutes that means if you want to be able to fly fast but the new footage this goal of there are many obstacles flusher will become for example you need to be able to see fossett and to make a reason i think so at the moment of working on these 2 big problems. the robotics professor will continue researching and in a couple of years his dream of the perfect rescue drone may well be a reality. for

welcome to you cough into the weekly environment show i'm now after a way in lagos nigeria here's a look at what we have coming up on the show today. find out how people exactly go out of my seat because you know we both of. our women are going to be out of cycling boss to weigh. in on why volunteers in the council passed a law. to begin the show in san diego a country that is home to some 15000000 people about 4 decades ago a forest source plants that in the northwest of the country to combat the problem of coastal erosion it changed the lives of farmers there but now yes lisa population growth and other factors are putting a strain on this forest let's go sit. down to fall harvest. plans that's not something that former smalley so take for

granted. here's one of over 20000 farmers living in the new year's region of northwest in senegal. many live close to the closed and still potentially face of threats of erosion and sand storms. but a belt of trees is helping to protect them. almost 200 kilometers long it's 500 metres wide at its narrowest point. the forest was planted 40 years ago as a shield against wind and coastal erosion. regional farmers union representative from amanda india it says philip trees or whistling pines were specifically chosen because they can thrive in the harsh coast environment and because the steady lies the dunes. will move from city of ramadi do suburb right here when there are no was once nothing that was and is is known for his living duties i mean

before these trees were plugged it up the village would move we did with a cause illusion that they call that much learn to do things in he needed to produce a culture a 2 things they made it impossible for the foremost to sense and here it was you know but i'm a thorough prove to us that untidy. to day 6 of the sons of senegal's vegetable production comes from the news region. an estimated 225000 tons of produce here only. it has become the country's food basket and it was a pine trees that farmers like a smaller so creates their fields. if you really want to because we were going with this was only after the trees were planted that were able to live work the land. at 1st you could only put up temporary shelters because everything in this.

thing sort of pine trees asunder stable and because of that you have a fertile forest and beautiful homes i can cultivate vegetables on a public. park not a model. it's a delicate balance though the farmers need the trees for protection but a growing population means the demand for timber for feel and fulfilled in fairness is also growing. but the solution the forest has been divided up into some 200 plots monitored by different i would cultural and forestry groups. each group decides which felde according to strict school says. saplings up plans and to replace any trees that are chopped down to this and there is reason even some planes to farmers all over the coast.

but only. as you can see it's because of the abundance of pine trees that we have for talaga over maintaining the forest to central to the work of our association. in order to do we have to plant and replenish trees it's a crucial to sustainable development but that game of dog began trees are in their plastic chutes to ensure the absorb as much moisture spottable than the plastic is called away to let the tree take root over $50000.00 trees are planted each year and hopefully they'll also protect future generations informants from encroaching sand and rising sea levels. well the 1st road on the african continent was constructed in south africa region the new paving technology has only been tested in a few countries gone inclusive but it's already looking like a good alternative conventional made from petroleum it's columbus all this plastic

world he's built from mountain waste 2000000 plastic bags or 650000 plastic bottles removing all of that waste from the environment will definitely make a difference this street has even been a nominee ted was soft i forgot you called logic award it's a great idea that we owe a lot of promise yes this week's doing your bit. these cars are driving on plastic bottles shopping bags and packaging. the 1st road in south africa made from plastic trash is proving its worth no cracks no potholes. the 1.7 kilometers stretch of road in port elizabeth was made of an asphalt compound containing pallets of shredded plastic this project was commissioned to

test the feasibility of building roads like these in south africa the way that things that were used to simply accept that would have been a softening on the voice in the right. by reviving up a standard on the bench about reducing them but the requirements and the need for using have fossil fuels that are defensemen is a byproduct of oil. obviously reducing the amount of facts that that's right into that ball. and potentially internationally the company says that compared to standard asphalt or concrete roads there is also last longer in south africa only 16 percent of plastic waste is recycled the rest ends up in landfills science or the environment every kilometer of the. new roadway uses the equivalent of almost 690000 plastic bottles for a pilot project is now among the finalists for a prestigious south african. and how

about you if you'll also. tell us about it visit our website said to us a tweet. hash tag doing your best. we share your stories. in our next report we head to one of the smallest countries on the mainland of africa but like many west african countries a lack of functioning waste disposal system waste is a serious problem trash is everywhere in the rivers on the fields and piled up in the streets like wherever people are this is where a women's initiative is helping to reduce the amount of rubbish bromo recycling providing women with some extra income.

what he would woman is so enjoyable because to be one is woman. in any development in the world one woman gave me. of gavel in anything and they never sent back the only as you know who stood in. these are 2 cs i has been called the queen of recycling before you get firewood to the community you have to walk maybe one and a half kilometers before you get to the forest. that you can use for one. you know it's to give up your time the real people you're going to get access to the chapel what do with this one is this wherever you are importantly. freedom of a these are true is the founder of the n.-g. o.

women's initiative the gambia it's found a way to produce fuel brick hurts from the shells of peanuts or ground nuts for. grow nuts or the gambians main cash crop and export product left to decay the shells produced c o 2 and methane so 1st their crushed then slowly burned. them while. we are here for our families we come every morning to this place to earn as much as we can for them when there was little ows us to pay the school fees and school materials when i get up in the morning at 6 to come here there are up to 500 other women here. their families wouldn't survive without this job to get it. done most of the look at them. at a landfill near seaside village these women are collecting discarded glass plastic

and leftover fabric dumped by local seamstresses if you know what to look for there are rich pickings to be had. moran says high as one of the set whose 1st partners she remembers that there was some initial skepticism about the project and the idea of women gaining financial independence. when i started in 1907 my family thought i was crazy. as a young married woman i was expected to get up in the morning and cook food for my husband in the kitchen but my family and my husband had to watch me heading off to the dumping ground they told me i wasn't a good wife they expected me to be home with my husband. they had no idea what i was up to the good. at this time of year there's not much growing and the central river region gets over 40 degrees celsius and the rains won't come for another 6 months but people still need to earn

a living. get what they get to demand of the community and i never blamed him for that because that's the issue and that's the culture that we're living in what i already said culture is also the idea one who. is about to the reason that we are leaving and what feels a man needing is not a problem but women also today they have a right to eat because they are contributing. none of the recycling center in the village of and you know where is that who sees i comes from was the 1st on the gambia she employed just 5 women to begin with they would collect and clean up old plastic bags and then when you enter new ones today up to 20000 people across the country work with or for her and geo. they produce briquettes soap bags jewelry and toys some of the best selling items are purses made from reclaimed

plastic. village banks look after the money earned by the women's groups around the country so it doesn't all disappear into their household spending. we want to empower them one to clean them on economy how you can call me little that they have. so one is from the sea of deposit if you just $100.00 you have to sit back i'm tell us how we're going to do you want to whatever happen you have to put some money into here because we are planning for more. when you said who says side was growing up this area was covered with mahogany and acacia trees. deforestation and climate change have transformed the landscape into an arid step. funded by donations the women's

initiative also started a project called reforest the future. of water from a well irrigates the newly planted seedlings. along with indigenous trees like mahogany and the women are growing mango and coconut trees the saplings are still in the tree nursery but will eventually be distributed across the country. you want to make a change. be the 100 percent sure that it will never be overnight and then you have to have an expectation that if it is 100 people living within your area $75.00 but at the beginning what let that be a motivation for you let everybody tried to make sure that whatever you are establishing let it be a reality and it is helping decide. from the forests of the ground to the last medals of england it's a lot of crises there not only lovely to look at but they're also play an important

role in the ecosystem volunteers taking part in watching reportedly the world's biggest survey of flies and is a huge help in assessing the health of the. right to. a red admiral. a small light. and this is called a comma. environmentalist simon saddle has no problems finding butterflies here in hutchinson's bank and they to reserve on the outskirts of london. that industrial agriculture and urbanization have caused massive line numbers to drop. the experts say 3 quarters of species in the u.k. are in decline these delicate creatures are important pollinators and pest control this. was really helpful to know what butterflies there are where they are flying because the butterflies are a very good indicator of the quality of the environment how well is the environment

being managed for the wildlife. to get an overview the wildlife charity butterfly conservation launched a u.k. wide census. it's targeting 20 keep better fly animal species anyone can report they sizings using a smartphone app that locks on to their location. through the problem and you see very simple if you want identification cards you can go and find that click next it's not the right date if you can change it if you need to think of next again and then submit that and then you've got another kind of the night. as hard as the coded 19 pandemic has been on the british economy it's had some positive side effects for nature and wildlife. i think in general a long time has helped many of our butterflies particular if you look at parks and

gardens road verges there's been less cutting of the grass and the areas like that and so more possible able to grow and i think more butterflies have been able to thrive i think the quality benefits that came along also probably going to have some benefit as well. however as life increasingly we think it's to the way it was before lock down the unexpected rest basement in full blast of flies. so the app daisy could now previous specially imposing for their protection. policy he used to indicate his boys. really got. to know where they are so. well. aware.

of it and 1000000 and a half a dozen flies were counted by more than 110000 volunteers in the 2020 census taking the pulse of nature before it's too late. so there's an app for counting and you'll be amazed at how many other apps you can use to protect the environment africa have another 2 for all the tech notes out there i think you're one of those who takes pictures with your smartphone all day long like i just did that this one for you your photos can help save god. here's how. jurists can contribute their photos to citizen science projects and supply valuable data for research on coasts m m o 7 plants. the university appeals coast which project examines all types of coastlines where the cliffs. all sat.

vacation is can upload their photos and specify the exact location to the coast which website the images go into the global data bank and help scientists to better understand the risks of rising sea level. the wild me project by an american and geo documented to migrate 3 parts of wildlife anyone with a tourist or researcher cannot load photos of wild animals to the site artificial intelligence. recognizes each animal bites individual traits and records the date time and location the photo was taken this allows scientists to follow migrate 3 patterns and users can see where the animal they photographed on their holiday has moved on to. anyone can take pictures of clouds with nasa's globe observer app and again help researchers. the u.s. aeronautics and space administration compares the photos and other data like time
