with the biggest composers you talk iconic you can begin to imagine a world class one player or similar spot on the beach or disagree. without being told. this week on. the. ilo and welcome to focus on europe i'm liable lola thanks for joining us the refugee camp moria in greece has long been a symbol of europe's failed migration policy now it is no more europe's largest refugee camp lies in ruins after a fire it raised it to the ground some 12000 people fled the flames and now need to

be relocated but just as the migrants and refugees are pleading for help so too are the residents on the island many of them want them out of the country for good well it's a crisis that has been brewing since the count was erected 5 years ago it was originally meant to house 3000 people but as more and more people arrive from turkey the population exploded life went from bad to worse in the crowd to unhygenic conditions with the outbreak of covert 19 what was supposed to be a short stopover has now become a miserable existence in the mediterranean and some fear they may be trapped there indefinitely. baby emmanuelle is just 3 weeks old she was born in moria her parents say they fled from the congo to europe in hope of safety and a better life but what they found was hunger thirst and homelessness just

10 months i was disappointed because the european union could have helped us after all this time i spend 4 days or so if you don't want to taking care of us what are they thinking how can they abandon us the european union to i don't know what they're doing is there because the. days after the fire in the morea refugee camp chaos reigns on the island of lesbos families like the malays are left to fend for themselves thousands of refugees are camping on the hot asphalt the greek government promises hell but it is yet to be seen scenes like these showed just how great the desperation is. when the 1st deliveries of water finally arrived there were riots and some refugees were injured we do what we can the governor of the island explains but he points out that the fire was a catastrophe with a message lesbos has been left with a huge numbers of refugees for too long now he hopes things will change. for

lesbian people and for myself do is in a tragic way it was a good thing because. we simply that. when it happened with this tragic way i'm very happy that we didn't have any people who lost or and you wounded people but still it's a good it's a big brothers. the inhabitants of lesbos don't want it to be an island for refugees any more they repeatedly set up roadblocks they don't want to 2nd moria and say the refugees should leave their island my rehab so my docky lives in moria their teacher experienced firsthand how her neighborhood became radicalized at 1st many welcomed refugees but then the mood changed. over time things happened. there were thefts and the refugees burned the olive trees for firewood. yes

then public opinion changed. he. said. unlike many in her village maria up so my doc is still has compassion with the refugees she and her friend donated food to be distributed to them but they both agree that it can't continue like this. for totally disappointed. as this is all these years we've heard talk of sympathy and support more to come to the conclusion that the only thing people are trying to do is make greece and especially the islands of the east a g. and a location for a permanent refugee camp. the refugees don't want to be cooped up in a camp again either but continue on to the rest of europe again and again they demonstrate on this post now the end patiently and increasingly desperate. for them

the island has become a prison from which there is no escape since a coronavirus outbreak in the camp many have been living in fear. 1 1 that is the. force situation for good if you would you really don't have too little know what's really don't have anything and when it does. freedom plaza. attend city was built on a former shooting range in 2 days the authorities celebrate the temporary camp as a great success. many refugees are skeptical that they'll be stuck here 2 for years others have no strength left but 1st this is india study of god that i want to go in because the situation is very bad it's very hot i have children and obvious that. it seems a 2nd morea is on the cards something neither the refugees nor the islanders want

to see but the e.u. is deeply divided some say we can't take them all when others say that europe must help those in need of protection and in the middle of it all little emmanuelle and her family you see. i'm a farmer most of the viper i want to work feed my family give them a home. if i'm a prisoner here there's nothing i can do. to see that's why it's about getting out of here and living in freedom. old. record. says they risked everything to leave congo and find a better future for their children in rich europe but this rich europe treats them like criminals. why. well germany has announced it will take in some $1500.00 migrants from greece while the e.u. commission has said it plans to put concrete proposals on the table by the end of the month and that it is determined to show solidarity with greece. no your 1st

instinct might be to head to the supermarket when your fridge is empty you could also go hear urban foraging has grown in popularity thanks in part to covert 19 people are spending more time outdoors and reconnecting with nature even michelin starred chefs have developed a taste for wild food when london experienced forgers like izzy are touring the city and teaching newbies how to eat plants like stinging nettles without getting her. to see johnson is looking for something fresh and for free. and she finds what she's looking for all over london in parks by roadside some kind of bus times. this car is everywhere it's a really nice set of all the reasons for this. but it's well known as the humans as well but in. a very mild. confluence everything's very well and it's

full of free. is he likes to pass on her expertise and leads corage ing walks under the name benevolent weeds the corona lockdown gave more londoners the time and desire to explore the surroundings. barry oh yeah elderberries ripe for the picking. always anything that's not a protected species even in most parks smell those waves. and tell me what you think they smell lot. some people say popcorn some people say catfish. they are best not eaten raw because they've got a tiny bit of toxin in them which is neutralize a soon as you cook it it's got amazing she says legend has it that a spirit lives in every elder tree and you must be careful never to make it angry.

it's like very long. so we quickly continue on our way around the corner we make our next discovery yarrow. this further and follow. one of my and old time photos so i go to hopes this is a killer you are always especially versatile as he says it tastes good on bread but it's also a medicinal plant that's used to cleanse warns. grab a little bit. put on your ones and then you can use the long leaves of the plants. to run around like a. stinging nettle is a special treat for izzy she says that it's digestion and can be found growing most everywhere. people are baby sick of buying everything

packaged in plastic and also having to buy what is just there and we were born into this world and there it is and just don't get it so she's to get to learn about how to do that. but most londoners haven't got a clue that you can harvest enough for an entire meal in one of the city's parks. the 1st thing i would not say. the other day i saw there was still going and i knew still a lot. but i wouldn't go because i don't know what touched it. what causes it to go i like being here for 3 years and you know that you know it's a good thing as you know it. is he however is always hunting for edibles and often makes surprising discoveries. last weekend i found some truffles in the carpark of a tesco and i was quite exciting. i was on my

knees there going in the ground like a square 0 which is what you got there if you want to be a fart you need to sort of think i'm animal. maybe it's good that most londoners don't know about the free food around them that way there are still some left for the city's real squirrels. it's a wound that has been festering for a century at the end of world war one hungary lost most of its territory as borders in eastern europe were redrawn. suddenly millions of hunger areas became citizens of other countries including romania they're in the car patient mountains and darien customs and traditions are still celebrated by the take a people they dream about reuniting with hungary and they have the backing of a powerful ally. all once a year there's a lumberjack for their traditional competition eastern for pathogens.

after the 1st made war their region ceded to many. and for many the connection to their old homeland is still strong. next to the romanian and secular flag there's a hung jury in one. eventual family from a nearby village has come for the contest many of their friends from hungary aren't here this year coronavirus destructions prevented them from crossing the border but i think. it's a bad feeling before a lot of our brothers are here from hungary but now the powers that be it forbid nettled. it's very important to us to maintain our connection to hungary. for some hungary and the loss of territory after world war one remains a national humiliation over a century later and viktor orban the right wing populist government has consciously stirred up these old feelings even suggested that the treaty of triano which

redefined hungary's borders in 1020 will stay in effect forever. we are doing it for the job yet we are the ones who reverse hungary's fate but the decisive battle that must be fought by the generation following us the 5th generation after triano. now it will not be easy and it will not be simple but it will be worth it the great times are ahead of you. get ready and prepare every day . hungary before all else god above us all. that you wished i mean don't you. over the past decade trian on has become a mantra under victor or abandon his governing party fetus. across from the hungarian parliament a monument inscribed with the names of thousands of places which belong to hungary until 1920 was unveiled this summer. historians the political calculation behind it . if we could get it that these are bad. when the fetus party came to power in

2011 of its 1st decisions was to give hungary a nationality to ethnic conquering and living abroad. and that if it off and on june 4th the day the treaty of triano was signed it was declared a national day of remembrance. since 920 the rhetoric here has remained the same but mourning the loss territory as best they. could hope for in romania such sentiments of resurrected fears instant to georgia and transylvania some 80 percent of the population speaks on derian the rest rumanian you under works years an orthodox church activist he feels the hungry and government has provoking unrest especially when victor or been recently posted this image of a map of the former greece are hungry on social media. little stupid beyond.

100 years have gone by since the international recognition of the many us borders awkward to get to change. much more ethnic and gary and citizens enjoy all the same rights and have no reason to be nostalgically dreaming up the old days deep water. to equal the sun geo will agree with. nationalist spirit is growing stronger on the remaining inside to. these images sure remain in nationals forcibly taking control of a military cemetery are hungry and soldiers killed in world war one why bury the crow show hungry and serve and we rumanians will rule this land forever. handsomest hunter demonstrators trying bean to send them off at the cemeteries entrance the police stand idly by while the remaining flag is released over the cemetery. in contrast all is peaceful at the event in the current path eons the secular long true meaning is ethnic minority haven't succumbed to nationalist fervor yet they

keep up their tradition. that you have look at it's are only 5 times during a year but we'll never give up our homeland we were born here we live here we believe that he will. attila is untrue and his friends are happy not to have to think about the new tensions between hungary and remain in that string of the competition because it's all about their horses sheer physical strength and skill and not political controversy. it's a sobering fact every single piece of plastic ever made still exists today is said this is produced 25 kilograms on average per capita each year and only a fraction of that number is actually recycled the rest is burned or shipped abroad while a many see a hopeless heap of plastic he sees potential dutch man dave hakon's invented

a machine that turns a waste into wares and he hopes his creation will inspire others to do the say. dave harkins makes good use of the things we throw away in his workspace and he invents machines that construction panels from waste design based on plastics are there like a lot of things you could do with there we made like a big part of it but another technique so we use this for like writing. now we always more looking into did techniques and then sharing it along and hopefully it inspires people maybe they want to bowl maybe to make it into a lamp i don't know search for i was always very exciting as well to see what the community makes with the techniques we provide. carvings idea is for everyone to be able to recycle their plastic waste themselves anyone can download these online instructions welcome to a new brushes plastic instruction video today we're going to build

a plastic shredder. the plastic waste is donated to dave and he lives from crowdfunding established by a worldwide community with some 300 recycling facilities they all share dave hawkins enthusiasm. so friends. away must all rust away but plastic glass super long so i think because of that it's precious it's just such a long life but we use it to make very disposable items so that's also why we call the project precious plastic to show people it's actually a precious valuable material. recycling gives discarded plastic a new lease on life it's the idea for an environmentally friendly world. but we've still got a long way to go through own into the bin out of sight out of mind in the european union a total of $26000000.00 tonnes of plastic waste is thrown away every year less than a 3rd is even recyclable for the most part it shipped to countries in asia their

plastic waste is either incinerated or simply pollutes the environment. from 2021 onwards the e.u. ones. to implement tougher rules and regulations like compulsory recycling of textiles the right to repairs on electronic devices and a radical reduction of the use of non-recyclable plastic packaging vivian dunellen a spokesperson for the e.u. commission for the green deal believes that production methods must change. to make sure that we have less waste in our households in our industry one of the important elements for example is the product design legislation that we would put forward next year if we make sure that these products are we generate less waste can be used for longer can be reuse and so on. but for dave hawkins that's not enough as plastic objects are not all the same. so i got something for you here come

home because i just want to ask you why you can what is still less thinking what you can use or just recycling and killed a lot of things are a staple. here so you have different types of plastic basically so you have a lot of different ones and a lot of it is actually recyclable. but friends if you have a bottle cap is a different plastic than the transparent foil so you kind of need to separate the different materials into the different plastic but some products like let's say for a fact. bit more annoying because it has a foil on the inside with aluminum i'm a perp pressed on it so this is almost impossible to recycle because they will use everything together. in separates the different plastics from one another which costs them time for industry that also costs money but it's not always easy for manufacturers to avoid combining materials they often need to use different kinds

of plastic. there's no point in recycling existing plastics that we need to use plastics that are biodegradable we're no longer needed plastic was never developed to be recycled and the current strategy on plastics is by no means a real solution. it just leads to much higher costs of course. brown guard recommends switching to nylon. for using i long for packaging would make sense nylon has some unrivaled barrier properties groceries can be packaged much better with my lawyer and it's endlessly recyclable. however nowlan is expensive which is why it's not used more widely and organic materials have nothing on cheap plastic dave hawkins knows this which is why he's busy working on his recycling machines to make our waste of valuable commodity during the coronavirus pandemic an additional problem with plastic has arisen this is something people use

a lot of alone when i was thinking if i can use the last we'll have a lot of trash with the mayor's opportunity. these face masks become residual waste and are incinerated on mass in germany alone there's a need for up to 12000000000 masks dave doesn't have a solution for this but he sees the way we use face masks that's reflective of our behavior more generally we're just to use a lot of plastic i think of it but we don't realize that we're actually also making a lot of of mass. even though we don't really see it so i think we're in europe it's more about us so our mindset about consumption that needs to change a lot. david hawkins is clearing out his work space has he's moving to portugal to start a commune of sorts its purpose. of course. what's the secret to happiness well the answer could depend on where you live for years

denmark has been rated one of the happiest places on earth the small country is even home to the world's only happiness museum and the danes have plenty of reasons to smile they have free health care education and they take amusement very seriously. even the other things in copenhagen take part in a bizarre ritual. that robot christoph is 25 and isn't married yet. for some reason his buddies tied him to a st sorry right like this and he's baptized with a generous portion of cinnamon and beer. having fun in life is part of what makes the danes happy. to have our own little sisters producing. it's your. you deserve so this is the but but but the happiness of the day it's the one closely i don't know there's no specific answer i can't live my life we're just

enjoying life. i don't have. the danes can't really explain why they've been among the top nations and surveys for years now either other northern europeans like the finns are also highly ranked. of course there is an ebb and flow emotions but somehow you feel a special flare in life so there's a lot of smiling and celebrating no matter if it rains or shines. the happiness museum in copenhagen is looking for clues as to what makes someone happy and what makes that dana particular so happy was it quickly becomes clear there are many factors that cause happiness including simple ones. and stick to one of the things i experience differently here on a daily basis as opposed to living in germany and in berlin are the faces you see on the street and nobody here is ever deserving of a scowl and when people smile at the cashier in the supermarket or the cleaning

staff that has an impact on society as a whole has actually. the museum offers some surprising insights earning more only has a positive effect up to an income of $4000.00 euros a month and interesting fact for those in search of happiness we're going to look for it you just have to catch the right moment and realize when you're experiencing . in denmark time seems more important than money here it's common to take time off to care for the children there are less hierarchies of the workplace and everyone is on 1st name terms. working well is more important than long hours at your desk friends and business. entity is more important than working hours. and denmark working hours can be accumulated it's just another piece of the puzzle that helps you find the answer to true happiness. well they're even happy with coming in 2nd place to finland on this year's world happiness report thanks so much for watching
