a long time passengers strapping in for one of the very 1st flights to land at balanced new airport at times it seemed like this day might never arrive i think up until the feeling i get that even though it took so long when there was a 9 year delay that just makes it an even bigger event where you even more excited . me out airline industry hot shots politicians and journalists nabbed almost all the spots for the short flight from munich left hands as c.e.o. calls it a historic day to believe there will be a more perfect storm for milliman because america would like the one we all bring to this requirement. not have come up with the fam fare was somewhat muted given the challenges facing the industry in the midst of the pandemic and given the national embarrassment surrounding the whole sorry saga. it's been 14 years since the grand breaking ceremony years marred by delays

scandals and spiraling costs the airport was supposed to symbolize germany's bright new future post reunification instead it was plagued with technical hitches from fire safety problems to wrong me late cables to automatic doors that didn't work. issues the project's 4th c.e.o. would rather not dwell on. the down and finally berlin has a modern airport by international standards it's the gateway to the world and we're looking forward to welcoming guests from all over the world. not everyone is so enthusiastic local residents demanding more noise protection and climate activists voiced their grievances at the rather less than grand opening in fact there seem to be more protesters inside the passenger's footfall is projected to to around 20 percent of normal levels due to coronavirus travel restrictions meaning one final delay for the project terminal to photo open until 2021

10:13 pm
we really want to do just libraries in all types. finally in 1908 an oscar for best supporting actor in the untouchables what he would like to talk to you. isn't that just like a walk. and his role in steven spielberg's indiana jones and the last crusade was a huge success. connery played harrison ford's father although in real life he was only 12 years older than his on screen son. at the age of 69 came what he described as the proudest day of his life although

10:15 pm
a socials handle there is at the devil he needs a man to be held in durbin from me for now i don't think he thinks watched. an interview with german president confound to shine my own he is worried about a split in society during the pandemic the south and these are some numbers that. listed calm among the groups which i'm doing yet again these are the obviously the team going to indeed enjoyed a full blown up it's good friday and will be even more strength coming from the sharply in an interview with. next on t.w. . i'm not nothing out. of them but they stand up and
10:16 pm
with a 10 minute think into the german culture of. nudity we'll take this drama you tell us. it's all that. enough time rachel join me for me to get funky the host. of windows because mr president you just spent 2 weeks in corinth how are you feeling now. making is good may get everything was fine i'm well i wasn't infected but after 14 days i can say if at all possible one should avoid quarantine i'm glad i can meet people face to face again and be different because if it was it's enough inferential crimes have been committed again in friends how is it possible that this can happen in the center of europe but it isn't done so of course all sorts
10:17 pm
are above all with the relatives who have our sympathy. but i believe what we must do now in europe not only in france is to stand up to this act of brutality and the islamist motives behind it just in even stand we should have many people in europe have done that and it's good that representatives of muslim states also joined in those condemnations play. for tottenham this was not the 1st do you fear that could be attacks in germany. as. most recently we had an attack and grazed in where one person was wounded and another died. and. we cannot pretend that we are immune to such attacks here in germany and. on the contrary we have to remain vigilant indeed the security services are vigilant but in our democratic societies we shouldn't base the response of the
10:18 pm
state on a course determined by hate. and acceptance and you to respect our part of our society and so standing up to such acts of brutal violence and islamist motives is one thing the other is trying to maintain the openness of our society that's the other challenge we often had ones like there's often. is the under the halls for the. home good how did you go you were speaking about the role of the muslim association what role did the verbal attacks of president play in the escalation is it didn't add one. does. this is they are not helpful at all that's beyond. its collation which we've noticed there is noticeably harsher rhetoric didn't lead to possible perpetrators feeling and courage. in this time i have you are in the middle of the pandemic
10:19 pm
germany is facing a partial lockdown if we lost control. this in. we certainly are in a critical phase that is true for many states in europe but also for germany so when we are in a situation where the number of infections is rising every day reaching new records this is also a practical test for democracy in germany either we manage to reduce the number of infections significantly with the means at our disposal or the situation will get out of control. and i am confident that we will succeed in pushing back the rate of infection he wants to see in the dye answered them and then the heart of the last moment we did you speak to me yeah. it's been the fun of it. and i'm convinced that most people realize that these burdens are necessary at this point and we don't have to experience what some of our neighbors
10:20 pm
have experienced hospitals overflowing highly infectious patients having to live in corridos or who can't be admitted to. the norm and we must avoid pushing the health system beyond its limits that's just a central goal no i think people understand that. they love the video even so resistance to these measures is growing across europe and also in germany we can expect a long hard winter a politicians not driving more people into the arms of conspiracy theorists and radicals as it's not really for the. of course we know this from health emergencies in the past the longer such a pandemic last the greater the strains are and the stronger the criticism of the restrictions that could take months and i don't think going. directly into the number of people who consider the ridge strictures to be correct or demanding stricter measures is currently growing faster than the number of
10:21 pm
critics. in this respect it's not so much the numbers that worry me but the abrasiveness of the argument that. there is hardly a bridge between those who say yes that is correct and those who either don't consider coronavirus a danger or a completely reject restrictions drive myself to bring supporters and opponents together this can be done in smaller groups but on a larger scale the conversation has indeed become more difficult. for the few months there's people who are now abandoning dialogue that is changing to the side of the radicals how can they be brought back to the democratic discourse. in the schools if you cannot force someone into a democratic discourse politicians constantly have to take on the task of explaining in a transparent manner what they're doing and why certain measures are required with
10:22 pm
the number of infections driving those that assert that we are dealing with a simple flu that we politicians are cooking up a storm are themselves increasingly under pressure of when this because mr president in a few days a new president has been elected in the united states how important is that election that is not really. of course this is 1st of all important for the us itself but the election on the vendor 3rd will have a global impact regardless of who wins i hope that afterwards the united states will again develop the ability to have a shared idea about the future of their country. and. this and what's important for us as europeans is also to understand that the european project with european integration and cooperation is invested in the trance atlantic relationship. this is not been the
10:23 pm
case recently but i hope that new understanding for europe will grow to. be the vexed supposing that there is a change of president in the white house will the transatlantic relationship be ok . he covered. i think of we europeans and especially we germans must force ourselves to take a realistic look at the change situation one in which the us also finds itself with the end of the cold war the realisation that russia is no longer the number one threat for us about that the security threats for the united states might come from other corners of the world reorientation has a. political reorientation or let's say this focus on china and east asia that's something that began before trump but not with the aggressiveness with which the dispute with china is being sorted now it gets the us and that's and if you know this look at what's been done what does that mean for german policy not
10:24 pm
mine a festa good as i am firmly convinced that what 1st of all needs to happen is to recognize that our national interest is europe start to happen this coronavirus trust us has shown how important european cooperation is like there was a really perhaps unexpected about courageous decision by the european heads of government in july regarding the substantial european reconstruction fund to see that there are joint european efforts for example in the development production and distribution of the vaccine and just recently decisions were made to enable cross border aid when hospitals in border areas overflow and capacities are still available on the other side that means that europe is learning even in the crisis and i hope that this attitude of learning from one another will continue but investing in europe is one of the task i think germany will continue to face.
10:25 pm
towards the end of it as you know. this is a steinmeier the relationship with russia is at its lowest point most recently due to the poisoning of alexina valmy a you concerned. it's been bizarre been bizarre if i give them the bone i'm concerned about not only being poisoned but my concern actually dates back a long time and of course one should mention the illegal annexation of crimea where i fear that moscow has not properly understood the shock that it caused in europe and not just in eastern europe. what followed didn't change things for the better the members of the opposition in russia came increasingly under pressure. some have to fear for their lives some have lost them right up to the tear gas.
10:26 pm
situation where the distance has grown and without a doubt. the vaccine is. i believe we shouldn't just let this process of alienation continue for. us until friends and then. our history in europe but also that your graphical location with russia as a neighbor makes it necessary to look for opportunities again and again to come to that but as i say you cannot change this unilaterally there's also requires the will and understanding of the russian side. it's clinking sounds as though they aren't giving enough they get little i mean you know it's true that will yes. when just because developments in the u.s. russia and china show how important it is for germany to take on a leadership role how much is germany ready for light. and fast and we need an understanding in germany that this country is important in europe and if we invest
10:27 pm
in europe others will too and due to our geographical location and history we have the task of building bridges to be built in europe between instant waste and bridges across some of the misunderstandings and cracks that have appeared in the past year but what's more important still is understanding that we also have to invest in europe in terms of security policy over. 15. but it is investing on the one hand this means making europe stronger and on the other hand as i said recently it also means significantly strengthening the european pillar in nato. in the not too stuck in both unnecessary. or by this is notan has by my own mistress to my next year we have federal elections in germany it's also much the end of angela merkel's political era isn't germany losing influence with the chancellor although internationally and in europe
10:28 pm
that's not the. first of all it is natural that if someone had the opportunity to gain political experience after so many years in government office and even more importantly the opportunity to expand the political network in all european countries and far beyond have a becomes a success will start differently with a full stop in this respect and these are big shoes to. the door that knish. doesn't mean that the success is denied the opportunity to vote up a similar influence over the years that's not easy you're right in. the shoes. of a. beef with things in course when this president thank you for the interview i thank you.
10:29 pm
ico africa. they have a bad reputation but they are role in the ecosystem. which is a very much important in cleaning the environment we call them nature's until many species are endangered a project to kenya seeks to protect the unloved scavengers that means above all talking to local people eco in africa. next d.w. . turkey that's 70 kilometers per hour and adventure and transportation all of the extra. tickets are in high demand. whether romantic dreamers are born influencers they all want one thing to travel across turkey in 24 hours. and 39 d. w. . in the us of climate change. africa's mix of.
10:30 pm
what's in store. for the future. come for the major cities the multimedia insight could enter. the next 2 or 3 decades could be make or break for the future of our planet dirty fuels and plastics are 2 big challenges but in fact they are useful so simply getting rid of them isn't the solution we need to replace them with environmentalists friendly alternatives are lucky for us there are a lot of clever innovations and inventions out there that could help make the world
10:31 pm
a better place and not just for us humans welcome seeker africa. in lagos nigeria and here's a look at what we have lined up on the show today. parties are fun but cleaning up is another man's and a clever competitor spends you the trouble. in bali so love is helping people to realize their dreams without having to leave home. and in ghana a mobile app is making waste management more efficient a lucrative for people whose livelihoods depend on. our 1st report showcases one of the world's greatest waste disposal services i'm talking about one are provided by vultures these scavengers are not only willing they are eager to do the dirty work of cleaning up caucuses found in the wild there are about 23 different species of the bird across the world but sadly far too many of them on the threat and that is a problem because vultures play a vital role in keeping ecosystems healthy which makes them well worth protecting
10:32 pm
that's tickling. with. the health of africa's 11 vultures species artists hearing on the brink of extinction the environmental and nature kenya has been observing the developments in east africa it's distressing because without these scavengers dead animals would rot wherever they dropped and that set in china ek shish which is a very much important. cleaning the environment we call them the lettuce and attica the clean the environment all the dead carcasses and by doing this they stop the spread of diseases diseases like rocks. and all that nature kenya introduced a vulture conservation program in them aside mara nature reserves in 2014 it's
10:33 pm
a mystery spread awareness of the crucial role vultures play. this group of must i work is nature kenya's vulture ambassadors they explain to villagers when a dead cow all go to spoil i grew chemicals in order to kill pet it says that threaten their livestock all of the animals that feed on the cac poison and that includes a lot to vultures so as i want to volunteer to go into my region for example in my location i usually go take some data on one of the conflict when there is a conflict. but it should be for its place and we we actually sometimes take the carcasses of both. classical animals and we put them aside and you can. actually talk to the owner of the i am not always win. support from villages and their leaders is key to the ngos campaign the assistant chief of one village tells
10:34 pm
us that battles between humans and animals are an ongoing issue in the area. there is a lot of conflict animals are being killed by life. or leopards. houses are getting killed by elephants and lions. are presenting a serious challenge for us you are going to have a conflict incident where i mean to beat a few. but you often the main victims of these conflicts are vultures and that's the environmentalists message to put an end to the agonizing that nature. kenya also cooperates with the mara reserves ranges. i think the biggest challenge is the issue of reporting. cases of poisoning we normally don't get a lot of reports from the community because they know that it's a crime and so a lot of this go unreported. but reporting the cases would get becomes a vacation is the chance to save the birds that's why keeping communication
10:35 pm
channels open is important. the effort is. basically talking now we discuss because we don't assume that they don't know they know something so what we do is to add to the dividing line and basically to create awareness also supported by bird live international the program is focused mainly on east africa because that's where vulture death rates are especially high the campaign's push to improve the exchange of information is now starting to yield results we're getting reports on not human to live conflict and also responses to. what voice is poisoning and by these some voices have been sent because there is. poison in response protocol that is being followed. case off in me or poisoning incident. this year
10:36 pm
and international initiative was launched with the goal of reducing vulture moats alice in africa by 50 percent within the next decade. but for it to work it's vital that the local communities are also on board. and now from the birds to be like vultures beings are also in danger as toxic pesticides used in agriculture are causing them to die off i don't president said rates one startup has come up with a neat idea to help these important pollinators the company's 3 founders develop an insect friendly glossy admixture that you don't need to plant they've created a combustible confetti that can simply be thrown into the wind it's not only easy it's fun to just take a look at this week's do you know but. when
10:37 pm
humans gather to celebrate they often present confetti to liven up the party. but for many bees and other insects the party is over. into industrial agriculture many of the plants they need to survive are being lost. philip via once to give beans a helping hand. so he and some friends have created by empty cradle confetti made from stanch. they add to the mix seeds of $26.00 local flower species. the entrepreneurs hope that happy humans will toss the eco friendly confetti and i have an area's thereby creating additional foraging options for peace and other
10:38 pm
insects. during a celebration. and that means that the human celebrate and then the nature. of fun and delightful way to preserve biodiversity. and how about you if you're also doing your bit tell us about it visit our website or send us a tweet. hash tag doing your best. we share your story. wow what a wonderful idea. for the environment that's a good one but let's move on to another great green idea eco friendly construction projects that are also designs to cope with the threat posed by climate change
10:39 pm
rising sea levels are making headlines everywhere but particularly in places like the netherlands where a quarter of the country over ready lies below sea level some architects in amsterdam thought it would make sense to build a floating houses the results are pretty impressive that's it. living on water in the city center one day more than a 100 people live on this site can now in amsterdam. and his wife yvonne find stock among the 1st residents. to the slim conclusion it's a different way of life here least not the slightest. the water sparkles and reflects everywhere. and now exactly it actually seems more extreme. you're closer to nature when the wind blows and you open the door
10:40 pm
a gust of wind will come rushing into your face so everything arrives pretty directly here. this is one of a total of 30 buildings which are part of the project from strip amsterdam each building has its own design. have one thing in common they flows on special concrete rafts fastened on 2 pillars the swimming foundation needs to be able to carry several 100 tons and must therefore be balanced precisely by architects like. up front you have to go every thing that you put on the boat how heavy it will be because if you put in too much. weight it will be too low and then the water starts to come in so that's why we make a lot of calculations but front how heavy the boat will be 20 different architects were involved in the project the houses were built on land and then brought to the
10:41 pm
dock. sustainability is particularly important to the inhabitants short trip translates into clean ship they want to achieve is to show that you can. turn with a very sustainable house and in a sustainable way in the sense that we as a community so we had 3 high levels of what we wanted to show. to the world actually. like all the buildings appeared right so house is supplied with produce solar power are sustainable and eco friendly materials we used for the houses the facade of the rocks is made from cork. we had some discussions with a whole group and we had help from from different. materials so we ended up with a list of green orange list and the red list wreckless was a no go orange was ok if you really have to because of cost reasons or technical
10:42 pm
reasons but prefer to use only materials from the greenest so corcos on the green list and we liked it very much showed it was our choice to do so. living on water has a long tradition in amsterdam houseboats can be seen on almost every canal. one of the 1st splashing districts was built a couple of years ago in the district of. 50 houses on artificial atoms now the trend is arriving in the european cities in london for example where british architects back up planning floating homes in the royal docks copenhagen has responded to a lack of affordable student housing with the so-called. 12 floating houses designed by star architect. doesn't shy away from even greater visions of floating city for 10000 people in regions threatened by climate change. in amsterdam demand is on the rise too i think there's
10:43 pm
a really big potential building on the water we see we have some requests for all over the world from new yorkers looking to live on the water belgium or in the netherlands there are several areas where they are building houses in communities over 52102200 houses even. for yvonne van saga and marcus schmidt this vision has become a reality 150 square meters 2 floor was a roof garden almost like a house in the countryside. but there is one difference their home. yes it was a little weird 1st needs to have been killed 6 yet but i did have a day where i sure i need to set foot on some solid ground. faced boy. it's a small price to pay for their dream of living on water.

if you are a regular viewer of our show you know that lots of people in africa do not have access to electricity it's not just that they can't turn on the lights on the flip of a suite electricity also drives business and without it people are deprived of valuable opportunities many results vying diesel generators but of course they aren't environmentally friendly how much better if the electricity comes from a renewable source one startup from germany is bringing solar power into remote areas of need and that's it us. residents in the village of syrup in southwestern mali are getting ready to welcome the visitations the village has never heard electricity now that's about to change thanks to toast and shriver and his wife aida. they're the founders of
10:45 pm
a company called africa green tech they arrived to great fanfare. thank them for neighboring solar power plants to remote villages in the south whole region. everyone here has been looking forward to this day for a long time. this is also. so it is such a relief to finally achieve this and make it possible for the people here. this is taken nearly 9 months of preparation when the moment finally comes where you know now it's happening tomorrow they'll be light it's a great relief. while the villages celebrate the my. in technicians from africa green tech set to work right now go rock. that there's lots to do before the lights can go on one after the long journey every component needs checking the containers spent 6 months at the customs office
10:46 pm
followed by a long drive lasting many days over sunday rhodes the solar system costs 150000 euros the hope is it will strengthen the local economy. and offer the effort to make a solar plant like this worthwhile you need a village with at least 4 to 5000 residents we also look very closely at whether there's potential for a productive use of electricity unlike home solar power providers our focus is on strengthening small and medium sized businesses so we want to know are there carpenters and welders and tailors here and we look for 40 or 50 small and medium sized businesses. there i need a schreiber was born in mali. she's particularly keen to help the women here many of them sell goods she wants them to benefit from the new supply of electricity to . them and i'm not going to give them an example and i am not even
10:47 pm
