in distributing mine together and when they could be. facing a safe and. a warm welcome to a new edition of focus on europe thanks for joining us today violence against women is on the rise in europe so much so that the united nations and aid organizations are calling it a shadow pandemic they have an urgent appeal don't look away step in and help when women become victims of domestic violence turkish women are protesting against

government plans to withdraw from the is simple convention on combating violence against women even though more and more women are being murdered violence against women in turkey has been on the rise for years the perpetrators are often people well known to the victims a husband and ex partner earlier this year one case that sent shock waves through the town of backyard kind west and turkey is that of people that go to kim she was killed by her ex-boyfriend's back in july war than 200 women have become victims of femicide just this year but now turkish president to one wants to withdraw all from a european convention that was designed specifically to protect women from violence and abuse there are strong opposition against this plan not just n.p.r.'s home town . her friends describe her as a fun loving young woman. this was the image techie was left with of the

27 year old student. on july 16th ex-boyfriend strangled her to death remember her body. flowers and a photo commemorate and her favorite. now her friends beth and layla sit here without still numb with grief and in constant fear of becoming the next victim of violence against women. can't get him back maybe tomorrow they'll be announcing my death it starts right from the very 1st 30 shots encounters they say you can't go there alone. you mustn't wear this or that you can't meet so and so on and on and on and that's just another form of violence that the science of the merger was a province on near g. and coast. that has a reputation for

a free and more easygoing mindset than takis conservative regions or so many women thought. the brutal murder in arkansas can understand wave of protest nationwide against the rampant violence against women. their forty's and many communities responded with violence sending policemen to beat the protesting women. the number of women mad at each year into his movement doubled since 2012 now turkish women are no longer keeping silent many celebrities also joined the protests around the country including the popular turkish thing a seal a. magic a god who knows friends are also taking to the streets every week in the home town no longer will they sit by and do nothing as violence against women started. rises . harnick a bush that by the lower they try to intimidate and sideline us the greater our rage and determination and. now i'm convinced of that hard to jiang zemin on the

road map. the final sequence will make the 2 news unabated. but pro-government policy journalists like. check don't see the problem so much in a piece of men as in the istanbul convention on combating domestic violence turkey's them government signed and ratified it in 2012 the one in the december called whatever happens inside the 4 walls of a family's home want to stay there. this convention is incompatible with our faith our culture and our traditions on the names that we're making. seemingly compatible with the culture on the other hand is the coverlid treatment of violence against women in turkish t.v. series for years lawyers took has been representing the victims of domestic violence i'm a survivor as she's often seen the abusers appeal to the court for leniency and

sympathy. they'll say this woman has done this or that ruined my male pride in a stain my car that's what motivated these actions. they'll sabra cage something in their entire defense on it give you as lose this single time on this home alive you know the accused can then hope for a lighter sentence. which didn't even be possible that the authorities and the courts were bound to the european convention on preventing violence against women. hawks is talking to them and to. what to the men and cannot go to consume towns how important to them is the protection of women. gun violence before i have to confess but it's important for everyone to understand each other and get along better make. it all evolution in the roots of the violence line or bringing. what has to change anything with you get it get. murder victim cannot go to kim's

friends agree. to change in this country until it does the protests will go on that already reshaping consciousness among the turkish people. before i raised my voice and expressed my rage and sought out the solidarity of other when i was so far more vulnerable to abuse of behavior from men and it wasn't just. all women experience the same things we see and experience them every day to do it on. the tragedy of the friend's death will hopefully at least inspire a resistance movement among tuckey's women. but a guy crater in russia is one of the largest permafrost craters in the world and although it's located in one of the coldest regions on earth in siberia it too is facing the effects of the climate crisis the ice is thawing increasing the craters size year

by year the rising temperatures are an alarming development and they could affect the livelihood of people like cousinly if he needs the colds to keep supplies for his community fresh his warehouse is like nothing you've ever seen before. deep in the heart of the mountain is where cousinly have keeps a supply that's because it's cold here freezing cold even in summer some products can be stored here for up to 2 years without spoiling. here we store so for all you can sweet potato chips to fruit it's practical and much cheaper than a climate controlled warehouse. even in summer the temperature in this ice cellar is normally 15 degrees celsius below 0 but cousin can tell that northern siberia is getting warmer and warmer even underground. things

are naturally kept cold here in the permafrost now we've covered the cellar up with sheets to keep out the warmth. this year the ice summer was water temp agrees war with that change isn't too bad it's ok that bit more. but for how much longer in the villages but a guy there are many ice sellers like the village depends on them for it supplies over land access is only possible when the river is frozen for 4 months a year it forms the road in and out. for january to april we can use the winter coats to receive supplies. in the summer because these 3 stores get weekly deliveries by airplane from the regional capital you could say it's expensive but necessary. with temperatures that can drop to minus 50 degrees in winter life in about

a guy is dictated by the cold permafrost still covers the area but it's starting to thaw. this is the but i got a crater just a few kilometers from the village it's the largest permafrost crater in the world one kilometer wide and 100 meters deep and it's growing. the crater was originally caused by deforestation as the frozen earth was no longer protected by trees today it's also exposed to the rising arctic temperatures the melting permafrost sets off a vicious cycle the organic substances in the ice decompose as it melts which releases more greenhouse gases which in turn speeds up global warming. what modern processes were observing at the bottom like a crater are things we're seeing everywhere else just to

a lesser extent the ice under the ground melts in the ground collapses but it happens everywhere. but the guys with the budget guy crater is the perfect example of why we shouldn't mess around with the permafrost smears lot toys for each option you. may bring grace a youngster is otherwise one of the coldest places in the world but this summer temperatures hit 38 degrees it's never been so hot poses here could collapse because of the melting permafrost with the most the most basic and supports in the ground just like all public water and sewage systems. so. if they start shifting there could be accidents. global warming will cause a lot of problems here. she thought so she would see me put. the earth is also moving and test seams i sell are everywhere there are wide cracks like this one. through can seem plugs them up with water which then

freezes and reinforces the walls with blocks of ice he says ice is always shifting and the cracks have nothing to do with global warming is that the cupboard will manage even without an ice center it's not that bad let's hope everything turns out ok. for to see him in his eye cellar the effects of climate change still seem to be a long way off and many people here still don't know anything the called for most months of the year but that is starting to change. france is among the european countries that have been hardest hit by the coronavirus and make many friends like top a car are afraid of another lock down is that she is manufacturer and he remembers all too well what effect the 1st lock down had on his business for 2 months the demand for cheese plummeted as the nation came to a standstill to stop tons of this good quality produce from going to waste the

french were called upon to support the local economy go out and. a region famous for its cheeses they declared a colony emergency there's simply too much good cheese in storage due to the coronavirus french or cheese maker baton has close to 10 tons of cheese maturing in his cellars and that's creating more than a storage problem cheese has a limited shelf life in particular have enough for much of the current president. griffin after more than 2 and a half months you can't sell it any more the more crucial it wouldn't look very nice or that if $4040.00 would start to appear in the rye and would grow to think the pull of after more than 2 months with a choir to strongly taste. during the coated 1000 lockdown

artist and all cheeses remained behind closed doors thousands of french cheese shops were shot as were the regional cheese counters and supermarkets restaurants were closed as well so consumers were left eating pre-packed mass produced cheeses with long shelf lives. children who were stuck at home with their families found themselves without their favorite varieties and were not happy about it. oh no we don't have any gets cheese anymore. for close to 3 months even gora maize had to put up with processed or prepackaged cheese meanwhile across france artists and all cheeses were piling up over a 1000 tons worth soon after the lockdown was lifted the dairy industry coined a new term for margie saul combining the words for cheese paul marsh and taking

action. eating cheese has become a patriotic duty all nationally and by buying in consuming traditional french she says people are being good citizens she thought helping small produces the find themselves in difficulty due to the lock down wall and at the same time they're treating themselves to some delicious traditional french cheese this. campaign surpassed all expectations and has been seen around the world. for farmers like. who owns $39.00 cows the campaign arrived at just the right time now he can once again sell his cable show without any problems but even during the lockdown he came up with a clever idea he contacted acquaintances throughout france and offered to send the cheese by mail. and the folks played along they said to themselves hey we know them learned a bit of

a pickle so they spontaneously said yes for the name of. the farmer thank his customers on behalf of his cows to. don't have a tap you can turn on and off they have to be milked your voice a day morning and night and you have to do something with them now. the campaign has hit a nerve with cheese lovers in recent weeks consumption has risen in france and the stockpiles of cheese are getting smaller all the time. she's makers like. the french are proving so patriotic. and the more of this patriotism will be needed not just from the french but from all of us as governments introduce stricter measures to combat the pandemic

live in a village far away from the hustle and bustle of the big city that's the ideal for a lot of people in germany actually many refused to move to other places because their families have owned the land for generations but the villages in our next report may soon disappear one of germany's largest energy firms has been allowed to relocate all of the people living in the village of kind back in western germany the company wants to expand its coal mining activities in the brown coal mine of god but many villages are not ready to give up their homes. to the village the greater the threat. on this farm. here. is already right there in from. it's about 3 or 400 meters away it's come a lot closer in the last few. only 3 more years that his whole understand

would have disappeared to godfather europe's largest opencast lignite mind germany has pledged to phase out coal of by 2038 but that's too late for the victims. they live as an extended family on this historic farm with a 1000 square metres of land mine because what i see my grandfather was resettled here because of that same mine more than 60 years ago when he was that he was told that there was an old farm here that he could take over and he'd be safe here you know we're the 4th generation and it seems we'll have to leave again because of the mine. vic these are seed. the vincents want to defend themselves but most of the neighbors have given up even though it's difficult for them. but if they tell us that we have to leave then there's nothing we can do about it. they're being relocated from their

traditional sentry's old farming villages to unfinished new settlements the lignite mining company or w e tells us that 80 percent of the villagers agreed to the compensation while many are struggling others think that resettlement is a good thing it's complied. there are people who work for our. relatives who do and of course they are in favor because they're concerned about their job. so now there are other people besides them who see the benefits and. what you're in terms of money the relocation deal isn't unfair i have to admit. but illness is old village with the orchards the words and the well being is much more to him than a new development that's what he supports the ones who want to stay and fight like marie to address my parents keep saying they don't want to go through it again

having to leave my mother says that often and then she starts to cry she says she would rather die than see a coal digger destroy everything here and take her home like. that is why she and her song co-founded the initiative all villages remain to take a stand against the political decision to excavate 6 more villages in the rhineland coal mining area for me just as far as the question of justice it is not fear that people have to leave their homes because of a 19th century form of energy. initiatives attracted support from climate activists and this is caused a stir in the otherwise quiet and long forgotten villages that surround the mine for some the protests are a cause for concern but others like the drug isn't see the support from the climate protection movement as a chance to stop the diggers for good. it's given us

a lot of strength there's a feeling that we might actually managed this i think it's a great sign. for villagers it's about loss and destruction they don't understand why they have to lose their homes. they say lignite is not compatible with the parents agreement on climate change the resettlement measure is excessive and that residents rights are equal to human rights. trying to keep all of the villages and we won't back down one bit. this weekend the around 1000 people came together from the villages and beyond to form a human chain. protective wall for the villages which are still losing ground to the mine. what do you say no to this job offer like robinson crusoe you get to live all alone on a beautiful island located between corsica and sardinia you're surrounded by nature and your only task it's

a protect the famous think talian island well the man in our next report took on the dream island the guardian for over 30 years but now he's been ordered to leave although his job is still important. but you can't come in here because you see the red boys. roam around he is able to drive these 2 would be intruders the way. you think if i were to your they'd already be lying on the beach. would follow their lead and soon the whole place was full of people like accused to be. morandi is defending this. on the island of delhi one of the most famous speeches on the mediterranean it's being sand is unique. and around he has been caring for this natural wonder for over 3 decades he got stranded here back in 1909 while heading for the atlantic in his catamaran. marandi

happened upon a little island between corsican sardinia quite by accident. he's lived here on his own and watched over delhi ever since at 81 he's still almost comically self-sufficient. when i came to the island i couldn't even change a lightbulb. but here i was forced to acquire all sorts of important survival skills. like a modern day robinson crusoe he uses everything the island's rugged terrain has to offer like prickly pears and aloe vera. i also use the ilo as a medicinal plant to treat cuts and scrapes and above all summer. because the only shady spot on view deli is by his house miranda is only companions

are his 2 hands who keep them hopping here's their hutch. they jump over the brush and lay their eggs elsewhere. so he can't count on eggs for breakfast. that's a good person is the friended with supply him with food morandi was once a teacher and lives from his pension. i used to go shopping myself but then i was forbidden from using the motorboat. so now i have to rely on others his days in paradise looked to be numbered soon there could be no more rubber boat on the pink beach and no more around the. that's what the administration of the national park on the main island madalena has its way the whole model an archipelago is run from here to delhi included. to build a research station in new zealand there in place of. feature visitors to the pink beach to better consciously enjoy the natural beauty before their eyes.

the operators of the national park want marandi to leave 6 years ago the italian government purchased new delhi which had been privately owned they say miranda's contract as the island's caretaker is now know and void. in public administration positions are publicly advertised candidates must be suitable. and several need to apply. but mallo marandi won't be pushed out of paradise without putting up a fight using instagram as his weapon he's won close to $60000.00 followers they've launched a petition demanding he be allowed to stay and continue posting photos of rule breakers. i need this life here it's my mission and i hope the folks from the national park finally get that. many day trippers who

visit here legally in the summer and keep to the prescribed paths think that this beotch or rosa or pink beach needs protection from the tourists towards. and those who've met. agree that he and his way of life are worth protecting to. morrow should stay not just because of the island he makes reflect what are our needs where do we come from. as long as he lives and who knows how long that will be he should be allowed to continue. our own marandi can't imagine being banished from his island paradise he plans to stay live in his hut and continue his work protecting the deli and its pink beach. and we'll be sure it's a follow up on that story to find out if more andy will be allowed to stay on his

beloved island of delhi well that's it for today thanks for watching and goodbye. yeah. yeah. yeah. yeah. cut.
