traffic european states expand their bans on travel from the u.k. as britain battles a new coronavirus mutations that could be far more infectious. i'm sumi so misconducts good to have you with us here in germany a man has been sentenced to life in prison for attempting one of the country's worst anti-semitic attacks since world war 2 a court has convicted the 28 year old far right extremist of murder and attempted murder the defended killed 2 people and it's warded attack on a synagogue in the eastern city of hama last year during the trial he admitted he wanted to break into the synagogue and kill all 51 people inside here's a look back on the day that rattled germany. on yom kippur war

the holiest day in the jewish calendar more than 50 community members and guests were celebrating in the synagogue and holler. at midday a heavily armed neo nazi attacked the synagogue he fired shots at the door and threw hand grenades. but the synagogue solid wooden door withstood the attack saving the lives of those inside. among them was max piva hot ski chairman of hull is jewish community the experience has left him traumatized. i never had a problem with the fireworks on new year's eve in the past but i noticed this year that they make me feel a bit i wouldn't say they make me nervous but i really don't feel comfortable i sociate them with the attack. in the doesn't mean.

when they attack or fail to enter the synagogue he shot a woman walking by who had spoken to him he then storm to a snack bar and opened fire killing a customer the gunmen filmed everything on his own helmet camera streaming the attack live on the internet. a sign in the window commemorates the 2 people who were killed. 9 months later the trial of the alleged perpetrator began. the 28 year old confessed expressing his extreme right wing views he showed no remorse max play the hard ski has twice found paper swastikas left in front of the jewish community office once he saw a police officer surreptitiously removing a swastika he finds this unsettling. kinds if it has

been a club that's mine the bullets are i can't feel completely sure that the police or security authorities are safe. and that's bad. politicians in holland and throughout germany stress that combat ing anti semitism is their highest priority all the same very few jews in holland dare to show their religious affiliation in public the synagogue door which saved their lives has been replaced with a new one that is even stronger. let's talk more now about the trial and the lessons learned we have chamas tamir with us a leading politician of the green party here in germany mr think you so much for joining us 1st of all you've been following this trial very closely what do you think of the verdict. or that's the highest potential penalty in our democracy that's possible. therefore i think it certainly put the

sequel i'm aware does not bring back eon our kevin to their families but it's a clear message there it's the sort of very sea of this country of discord to stronger during the hate of those racists and tiresome it's why do you think this trial is so significant what does it show us. well you know we. in new zealand we witnessed. in so many cases before the myth of the. attack or death god radicalized in internet there is nothing we could do about it so i don't buy that anymore we're living in the age of digital ization and it's very clear these people get radicalized they have their friends they have people day interact with and it's our business as a straight to find out what's going on there and not to look aside and oversee that so therefore i think this court case will hopefully be the last one where we've

heard you know them if. you have radicalized and nobody could do something about you have been very critical of authorities here in germany for not doing enough to battle anti-semitism where exactly have they failed. well as you said i witnessed. here and i listen so or. our security community dear. when they were in front of the courts and it's hard to find words to see a state nursing digitalisation i mean you know. it's a shame we're talking about for florida's to qana me and the expert let me say quote unquote experts have no clue simply no clue about internets you know and this is again let me repeat there the 4th largest economy the buddha screaming allam to it no experts there could explain this for instance why the music was searched by

this guy what songs were searched the people in the court watching used google and found out more in between a few minutes then these experts there are you know their distant business to know something about right wing extremist music they have simply no clue and it's pretty much the same for most of the area so the state has to learn who's our enemy and be a city liquids as our enemies are. mr serious not just online we should say that he has been talking to members of the jewish community in holland even since that attack have told us they just don't feel safe they go to police and report anti-semitic crimes or assaults and they don't feel like they're being taken seriously i mean how can that be. well of course that's a measure of could see that's a measure of faith that we have

a policy of pheno that you can come whenever you want to and that there's somebody who shows that they have interests of course this is not something which we can solve the national level you need the right people in the rights offices steer but it's to general awareness that has to change it's changing the right decision towards the right direction this court decision is a very clear and the very strong message unlike we had the court decision before in many shows where you know that's. to commit to suicide what is in front of the courts and we completely oversold the network i mean these people did not read by themselves where did they get the weapons from knew that so things are changing towards the right decision towards the right direction too many lifes that could have been still alive if the state would have been a bit more aware in the past and you've put your finger on some of the problems perhaps

some of the shortcomings what is for you the biggest priority going forward after this trial. i think the good news is now that the security. side is where now and woke up and is looking into the networks meanwhile the next step i think is that we have to put our finger into all those. ideology comes from and look we're now next to the national parliaments you're sitting there the right wing ideology is represented in every state parliament in many local parliaments so it does not come from anywhere it comes from people create the background. and then the other says good radicalized and think that they have to act in the name of the so called majority which obviously is bullshit but we also. i have to fight against those people who create the ideology i'm i'm

talking about the of the party i'm talking about all those people who tell us that so-called foreigners juice muslims whoever are the reason for our program so maybe the most important message is that we have to teach our children we're all individuals we're not represented is awful but at this city of a whole religion of the whole country and if individuals fail it's individuals that fail and that's important because no child is born as a race is no child is born isn't i submit it's to society that creates and tarsem it's just the parents sometimes in this case obviously still internets and therefore it's us to fight against we'll have to leave it there is to me of the german green party thank you so much for joining us on. pleasure. thought ok let's move on to our other top story a growing number of countries are banning travel from the united kingdom to block

a new strain of corona virus sweeping across southern england the measures are already causing havoc at airports and other travel hubs in the u.k. which is now effectively cut off from continental europe and the governments of several countries ireland france belgium the netherlands a denmark germany and poland also austria italy and bulgaria they are all barring entry for people traveling from britain more are expected to follow suit the new coronavirus mutation is believed to spread more quickly forcing the british government to impose a strict lockdown on the capital london and nearby areas. 3rd. entry denied trucks headed from england to the european mainland forced to turn back after alarms were raised over the new coronavirus train the channel crossing to france is a crucial trade route truck drivers and their goods now stranded. young to

law by means. glossy judy this is good to like a chip you have to leave but the next 2 days yeah i will make here. i think or call for. travel at london's heathrow airport was also disrupted with some passengers left in limbo. i'm. confused at this time because even out i appeared on board in december citizen you see the situation is totally different it's hard going. through but sitting on a lot of people but. i think overall we're all just waiting on the opening up of all of the country. nonsense to see your family get back together. in the new covert strain has already been detected in mainland europe and as far away as australia. experts say the newly developed vaccines should still protect against

the mutation. all right well as more countries ban travel from the u.k. let's speak now to tom nuttall he's the berlin bureau chief of the economist and he actually flew in from london to germany last night tom thanks for joining us and we understand you went through a bit of an ordeal that you documented on twitter so tell us what happened. i mean there was no suggestion either it stands today of course in london new on the plane that there would be any problems at the border. but then when he arrived we were told that we had to be divided into 3 groups german citizens and those who had a documented negative test result were able to proceed through the airports as normal and the rest of us. kind of shoved into a corner. and told that we needed to wait until more information could be provided and it took quite some time one point i and other people were told that we were

going to have to return to the united kingdom even though we were legal residents here and. in the end those of us who could demonstrate that we live in berlin were allowed to leave the airport those who couldn't have to stay there overnight i'm told that they would be tested this morning or we've seen that there's been now a very strict lockdown put in place in london also the exits of people trying to get out before that lockdown went into place i mean tell us what that was like. well actually i it wasn't as bad as i expected i put this flight very very late in the day wanting to make sure that i wasn't stranded in britain before the ban came in i assumed a lot of people would be doing the same but the airport wasn't particularly crowded the flight wasn't full of so there was a sort of a peculiar sense of normality almost to see that all came shattering down when when we arrived at bergen airports and the and the police who had clearly improvising didn't know what their own instructions were try to manage this tricky situation as

authorities are now trying to assess what this new mutation of the virus means in the u.k. what was your impression in london how do people feel about the government's handling of the pandemic well it's difficult. that the government suggests that it only received information that the the very rapid growth in caseload that they seen in london in the southeast was linked to this new mutation on friday which was the day the day before that they announce a new restrictions other people are saying that they were to have been much more cautious or not to have been encouraging people to travel over the christmas period as they had done previously and certainly ought not to have been walking opposition politicians who wanted to talk. to want to touch the restrictions of the christmas so people are not very happy that these new tier 4 restrictions that were put in place a couple of days ago are going to make it

a very very difficult christmas particularly in in london in the southeast and it's a sort of a strange. contradiction between now one hand vaccinations being rolled out at pace now around half a 1000000 people in britain have been received 1st or 2nd vaccine but on the other hand we see this extraordinary growth in case loads of hospitalizations and it's very clearly going to be a difficult winter in britain as well as in other countries. tama told furlan bureau chief of the economist thank you for sharing your experience with us. so what does all of this mean for the european union strategy let's go right to brussels where our correspondent max is standing by for us hi max good to see you so we know that representatives of e.u. countries they're going to meet later to coordinate their response to react to this new mutation in the u.k. do you think we could see further border closures. also mean we have seen some

rapid developments over the last couple days of the last couple hours already will fall most a 3rd or roughly a 3rd of e.u. member states. suspending travel from and to the u.k. so it really does seem that e.u. leaders have gone into panic mode now the you counsel presidency has called for this this crisis meeting to discuss further steps they're most likely going to touch on the issues of corn teaming and testing and put potentially also in coordinating efforts in terms of the border closures but important to note here that the e.u. does not have any competencies they can in terms of closing borders they cannot tell member states when to close or open their borders that's completely within within the responsibility of the member states. but if you learned one thing from the past pandemic from the past months from the past year when the 1st wave hit us back in march and april and member states started closing their borders does that a lot of chaos lead to a lot of uncertainty among people living in the e.u.

and this is something they're really do not want to repeat and as we've heard already there's a great likelihood that this virus is in mainland europe already and border closures wouldn't really make a difference there right max and it comes at the same time that the e m a the european medicines agency is expected to approve that biotech pfizer vaccine tell us more about that. that's right so the e m a has reviewed the biotech far as a vaccine for the last couple of weeks and is meeting as we speak and hopefully will come give their green light later today which means that it's only up to the commission to give their final approval which means that the vaccine can then still be started 2 to be distributed to the member states and the 1st patients will have be able to get their shots but this doesn't mean this is a 1st step in the fight back against the pandemic it does mean that all of this is

over because there are limited quantities of vaccines there is limited numbers of fact scenes that are going to be available in the next next timeframe so we'll have to wait for for the pharmaceutical companies to ramp up their production to be able to distribute larger numbers larger quantities to member states and also other countries in the world to have a really have an effect on the pandemic. max and are reporting for us from brussels thank you as we just heard the biotech pfizer coronavirus vaccine could get a green light from the a.m.a. today of the agency's decision was pushed forward after pressure from germany and it could authorize use of the vaccine across all of the e.u. is 27 member states whether people actually get the shot is another matter. the information session at this retirement home in the bavarian town of dead ends with a crucial question will you get the coronavirus vaccine. i'll have the vaccine

yes i've thought a lot about it many residents here are pinning their hopes on the vaccination campaign which is set to begin after christmas but not everyone. is a few it's about $5050.00 at the moment the healthier residents are more inclined to decide against did or are still pretty unsure. health authorities are hoping for much higher numbers than that and various state premier marcus's it is worried that the german government has still underestimated the real demand. we need as much of the vaccine as possible for now we still don't have much so we will vaccinate as many people as we can but we still need more that's why we can't just order more vaccines we need to help increase production capacity put a cup of. germany's health minister says the government plans to order larger numbers of doses just like other countries are doing it is also in talks with bio on tech to produce the vaccine within germany the government plans to optimize

vaccine centers while the campaign is already underway. let's meet them on from there will be some kinks in such a massive project that's to be expected that we can learn together as we move forward and i'm certain that the vaccine doses that are currently available will be quickly put to use. so for the holiday hopes of the government are at risk of being dash for the news from the u.k. in spite of warnings germans are still traveling abroad and when they return they could bring back the mutated corona virus strain with them and that worries the health minister doesn't have them and it's not uncommon for viruses to mutate but if this mutation means it's significantly more contagious that would change things so it's important we prevent it from reaching germany and continental europe and intolerable so and have been the german government continues to hope that the vaccine works as well as predicted and that at risk groups agree to get it. let's take a look at some other developments in the pandemic interpol is bracing for

a sharp rise in crime as vaccines are rolled out around the world the head of the agency said deaves were likely to try to get their hands on the precious drugs by breaking into warehouses and attacking shipments during transport the south korean capital seoul and surrounding areas will ban most gatherings of 5 people or more later this week the country reported its highest daily death toll on monday amid a surge in infections and thailand has started testing tens of thousands of people afterwards worst outbreak to date the infections have been linked to the country's biggest seafood market which is located outside the capital bangkok in a region that is now under lockdown. and out of some other headlines from around the world in the u.s. top leaders in congress say they have reached an agreement on a new covert $1000.00 relief package after months of wrangling lawmakers struck a bipartisan deal worth $900000000000.00 businesses and individuals will now get long overdue support in an economy battered by the pen demick. talks between

right now climate change and different office stories. this is my class it went into what we. want or can really get. we still have time to work out i'm going. to set. up some scribe in the morning is like. excuse me a. human's and every other living being on earth is a part of nature we all come from each other and go back to return but our past actions have been extracted and have caused harm to the planet we called who are

the fault of actively working in harmony with nature on today's episode we look closely at how we can build and encourage a symbiotic relationship with me about it i will welcome to equal india some about our group. let's begin to be as sure with forests that importance for the help of the global climate is undisputed yet deforestation is a bit of reality in today's world invest on what our structure and organization is trying something interesting there incentivizing planting trees so that farmers not only have a steady income but also contribute to the noble forest cover for a region that's the norm to be extremely prolonged droughts how does this really work let's take a look. get . these women are planting saplings of native trees in western maharashtra. it's

not just a reforestation project. they're planting the trees on farmland which otherwise stays barren the idea to turn abandoned land into forests came from the organization farmers for forests if you really think about forests i think you know they're not just sort of. you know carbon storage powerhouses right they provide a range of ecosystem benefits you know everything from being carbon sequesters to you know providing water to charge you know soil conservation you know habitat for bio diversity our markets or our systems don't put a financial value yet on such you know the services that these ecological systems provide. that's the market failure that payment for ecosystems tries to correct. most full forest is approaching small scale farmers like. he leased out of his

unused land in 2020 to the organization they went on to plant 8000 saplings setting the groundwork for growing a thriving carbon sequestering forest. as the owner of the land be paid quarterly cash transfers of around 100 euros for the next 5 years by far most for forests for ecosystem services that the trees will soon provide. gun issues have lay mainly runs a small garage business the 23 year old belongs to a family of landholding farmers in western maharashtra but agriculture alone he says has become financially unviable to support his family of 6 and it was imperative that he find a paddling means of livelihood. money people have. become industrial laborers and some have started their own businesses

because farming is not the same anymore. farmers and. rains have become very erratic in the last year if this continues farming regional will disappear. and this is the nation's land. ogram family so far as has been piloting the payment for ecosystem services approach with 2 objectives in mind. to protect existing forests and grow new forest on degraded land within a year of starting operations they began receiving institutional grants from indian n.g.o.s and from donors thus they've already been able to plan $20000.00 native trees as part of a 5 year pilot project for every piece of land they try to plant as many trees as possible. when we finalize

a piece of land we have to measure its length and breadth. of this is done using this device is. doing this is very important because the draft of the plantation is made accordingly. so we have to do our work very accurately. through g.p.s. tags and satellite images the team closely monitors the health of each tree after planting. the project also supports women farmers and labor. day they're working on this 3.5 acre plot of land belonging to ramdass shindy. currently works bought time at a petrol station he hopes of the cash transfers from the p s project will help him

get back into farming he's convinced that if he benefits from this project more farmers will follow. damn that shindy and then if the have their investment would also benefit the next generation that have been in the forests has planted all the creatures the rights to the land are entirely ours despite the 5 year rental agreement that the organization everything that grows on the land to the fruits. in the years to come and the they will provide all belong to us. even if the project ends in 5 years fall most for forest wants to attract more dollars in the near future. this will allow for a station in this region to keep progressing helping the local farmers to become less vulnerable to the effects of climate change. now working in sync

with nature even if some of us might act otherwise brings big rewards they can always fishing industry for example the biggest in europe when they find a new species in their waters king crab which eats everything that crosses that spot and multiplies fast they decided to use the signal to their advantage let's take a look at how this was made possible. loves the arctic ocean the german has been living in norway's high north for 12 years. he takes tourists to see the sights along the coast near the russian border. he brings up one of those sites from the bottom of the sea for this took root. he only set out the tracks the day before at a depth of 180 meters but one day was long enough for him to pull up dozens of king crabs a delicacy all around the world the crabs also a growing ecological problem the crest stations multiply like rabbits. job in the

water you're good he can probably grab we have crept right over your. harvesting the king crabs has brought an unheard of prosperity to norway's economically constrained time nor including for the remote fishing village of big guy next. in 1809 residents ran an advertisement offering their village for sale. young people were moving away because there was no work. now the village has been revived complete with bed and breakfasts and even a bistro. and it's all thanks to none other than the king crab. fisherman who life in there was among the 1st to discover the non-native species of big on ice. savage researches had to release them in the barents sea in the 1950 s. . but there was unaware of that when he found the monster crab in his nets one

day. a 1st crabs we caught we tend to. we were taken completely by surprise. really or just the crabs hadn't turned up to give us any fish processing in town. the explosive spread of the invasive crab is a boon to the fisherman but norwegian environmentalists and scientists are loaned the crabs eat almost anything posing a threat to native ecosystems and they are being spotted father and father self. and so for a lot of them we found that the crabs are able to adapt to water temperatures of eating degree celcius that means they could survive in the mediterranean. wherever these crabs become established they have devastating effects on the other marine life on the seabed. some species mussels and starfish have

disappeared completely. along with. their own. that was the king crab also known as the monster crab has no natural enemies fishery authorities have made the quotas generous. in an attempt to keep its population under control but mark. says his guests after only a short time in the kitchen can otherwise be had only in europe's and asia's finest restaurants norway exports over 2000 tonnes of king crab all around the world annually. locals and tourists alike enjoy the crabs flavorful meat for the norwegian authorities it's a balancing act they want to preserve the crab population that brings so much business to the region while ensuring that the invasive species doesn't spread. the people of northern norway hope this lucrative source of income will last a while longer they've already built

a monument to the king crab. if you move into the cities you're more stranger to the previous 2.50 particulate matter 2.5. block the spot tickles from entering our body have been a reality for a long before. but back to the matter it is not a local phenomenon it's a negative environment of influence that exists everywhere on the planet to all c.d.'s on sustainable cities we met a group of people in berlin who are working to solve this problem. milly's overlimit livable is best achieved with the help of people who live here via when he's in new technology to contribute to better understanding of traffic. i would like to see the city authorities and the general public taking care of the trees.

this park in berlin is a green and a popular destination for people getting some early morning exercise or a breath of fresh air before work. berlin is not a city plagued by major traffic congestion and its industrial sector is relatively small. but some residents still complain about poor air quality and if built in set up their own sensors to measure a particular matter with a view to making the data public. contraptions air pipes are easy enough to make with parts from a local d.i.y. store. has a little infrared gauge inside to measure the tiny particles flying by. it relays that data to a little processor. it

wasn't and here we have another sensor that measures the temperature and humidity before the days are measured every 2 and a half minutes and sent to the database and. so on a missile or faked us. with god. is installing a sensor on the roof of this art center. there are already $260.00 of the devices up and running across the land on apartment balconies at traffic junctions and in back yards. and volunteers his free time to help others build and set up their own sensors. to. confront is what. i love the idea of collecting data and making it available to the public there is official data gathering in a couple of locations around berlin but it's very limited. or doesn't former smoker

i know how dangerous particularly matter can be and i decided to get involved with . the project began a few years ago in chicago where activists created this website prompted by the diesel emissions scandal. individuals register their air pipes on the site weather data are constantly updated. the project now includes measurements in $71.00 countries 3 people based in southern germany run the website on a voluntary basis. i spent 2 years in china and i'm very familiar with the pollution in beijing and shanghai. i could see how it affected my own health. i was fairly sporty beforehand but then i had to shorten my role myself and play. berlin based artist. zol has turned the data into

a virtual reality installation it's on show here at the city lab a nonprofit foundation for innovation. the installation visualizes what the sensors record because particulate matter cannot be seen by the naked eye. i just. remove what these are they could cause this these circles show current conditions in virtual reality and. the stuff of course when the shots from a year or 2 on the morning if i go over to the other monitor i can see that same section on a bigger map using pushed when jets vanished in virtual reality and if i now put on my view your visor it puts me right in the middle of the particularly matter. over at the top up a tree they've been working on green projects for more than 30 years now and are now building sensors for particulate matter. the aim is to increase public

awareness of air pollution. and it's with a bit of a typo for you will see people getting up.
