measures are being taken. what does the latest research say. information and context. the coronavirus of data the code of special monday to friday on t.w. . welcome to global 3000. in colombia the indigenous me sank people have set up a school to protect their traditions and their natural environment. in india a village community plants $111.00 trees whenever a baby girl is born accustom the benefits of society and the planet. but 1st to new zealand where sheep farmers are fed up with being blamed for climate change.

the corona outbreak has reduced travel and industrial production and resulted in a dip in carbon emissions so in that sense it's actually improving the health of the planet but the environmental impact of animal agriculture for example from mainz massive. in 2016 global greenhouse gas emissions totaled $51.00 gigatons of which more than 7 gigatons were caused by meat and dairy companies. to meet the targets set by the paris climate agreement global greenhouse gas emissions have to be reduced to 13 gigatons by 2050 but if the meat and dairy industry continues down its current path its annual emissions are expected to exceed 10.5 gigatons with devastating impact on the climate a new. zealand sheep farmers are coming under increasing public and political

pressure to. sheep as far as the eye can see and what looks like boundless freedom for randall. he's the 4th generation of sheep farmers a new zealand south island. farmers have always been valued in new zealand are the backbone of the country's economy. farmers appreciate shit families on. national audience today but there's also a favorite chair around. seem to mount. climate change is shaking up this rural paradise sheep and cows are major producers of meat thing they generate one 3rd of all greenhouse gas emissions in new zealand suddenly farmers are seen as environmental centers randall can see growing misunderstanding between people in the city and in the country. as most people in

the cities knew had cousins had a farm and friends that had a farm so most people probably spent on farms. that much as. the includes new zealand center left governments and this for example sheep and cows wading through rivers and possibly fouling the water doesn't fit with new zealand's clean image so many farmers now have to build fences along the waterways on their property. which farmers have become a political pawn says randall. in terms of. how the edge may have been in opposition for long years centuries it had actually run a country actually run a business strategy from chinese. experience only and so it sort of. feels

like there's a lot of stuff in. the aspinall's farm is located near one of the main hiking trails in memphis spiraling national park it's a unesco world heritage site. i think broncos wide allison sells ice cream of the spread so from a food truck here the family are trying to move into a better economic position. or i don't know what. is right timing as coming there are more constraints environmentally. really just like things i just looking advice to an alternative and common yeah this is just a really small stash towards the. law i'm from the breath taking mountain regions of new zealand is a major export the government wants to cut me taint emissions from livestock by 10 percent by 2030 otherwise farmers will face penalties but how is this supposed to

happen randall asks a c d y m c she musial and farmers are already producing in an ecologically sustainable way that would be hard to find anywhere else in the world. the fortress is gone for about a little but people know as me she was like 10 like them and a bit more into call of duty is quite a bit more work on. a few quality paula. i'll give. you people just want to be a bit more than somebody born into stuff and then the wealthy stuff and then just want to provide water and move the system on a beautiful day. for the market. this afternoon the aspinall's are taking a break from the sheep the family including grandma are having a day out on their own farm this is a playground of over 2000. hector's for the 2 children for him even has

a waterfall with a natural pool this is johnny and josh are growing up typical new zealand the next natural wonders never far away. this is not saying that it. just gives you time to thank them the joy and delight and little bit yes. go on to the ground and you get away but. you're used to it every now and then but if you do just. that you see a day every now and then you say look around and are all you actually that's a pretty cool place to go for living and working and we operate will very probably opt for getting enjoy it. it's not all rolling she postures and games of frisbee in the natural pool. for this new zealand farming family there are many new challenges but with views like this everyone can see why they choose this life.

and in our global ideas series we go to the andes in south america in colombia our reporter culture dinner met the indigenous misaka people who are determined to protect and control identity and their tradition of nature conservation. when the knees ak indigenous people have important matters to discuss they always sit by the fire. as 27 year old nestore explains is the most important place in the home. centers cost into the fire after all. but the ritual which joins us to the earth. you know we're going to leave you all leave for the cities rather than staying here will be no one who protects this area . then our beliefs our language the entire culture will be lost and cynthia

then said. nesta wants to do something to prevent not together with his friends from the village he's a member of the association. that's an association designed to keep local cultural traditions alive. everything in the garden is planted in circles the peds around to here they cultivate plants that back and rest is also used aloe vera and many others every plant here has its own special purpose. when women are menstruating the one we take the seeds of through yes this helps us against the cold. this is a coal plant that's why when i use that to tackle a favor when i could and this is common because it helps her stomach aches we also

make an on it meant to treat arthritis for example but. the medicinal use of cannabis which is being legalized in more and more countries has a long tradition among the means that people know they don't use it as an acrostic the members of the association also want to pass on that botanical knowledge to children in the village to teach the younger generation what properties the plants have and why it's important for the means act to cultivate them themselves. the group with a lot of one of my heart theater group is called the magical tree and their play is about how we're destroying our environment over then you know it's about how important it is to protect our animals and our plants and mood that's. going to get. some of the children playing music people fighting against

environmental destruction. and. you know. the be. here you can see some symbols this is a belt symbol it stands for the moon and here is the spiral it stands for the pop that we miss our tread. the group was set up about 15 years ago. in the past nestore used to perform himself but now he directs the children. there is of course an armadillo i'm going to kill it and sell it but i believe that it will. gradually all of the plants and animals are killed by the children who are playing the role of modern day individuals. down at good there.

afterwards the association members meet in the communities heart they come together on a regular basis to sit around the fire and talk about old traditions but also about new developments in the community. that means that manage 70 hecht's of of land a vast area most of it is beyond their settlement and consists of pristine jungle they are determined to prevent deforestation present on the members of the prison system. a lot of communities are destroyed by transnational companies also by the expansion of industrial agriculture. and. the land around the means that community has already been cleared nature has been devastated

by large scale cattle farming and also by gold silver and coal mining. many indigenous communities in the calcutta valley still suffering from the fallout of the colombian conflict the decades long war between the government paramilitary groups and communist guerrillas fark drug cartels add to the tension one 3rd of colombia is indigenous territory deadly violence is widespread in november 29000 there were 9000 homicides in one week alone. those. leaders have been murdered there are threats you are using violence to hound people out of their communities. a school in the region of. in a condo is visiting as a representative of the autonomous indigenous university. it

brings together students from various ethnic groups to bolster their cultures and join forces to improve their communities learning takes place in small groups. the seminar participants discuss what they can do to tackle the threats that communities face in solidarity and cooperation between the indigenous groups is crucial. because i was get the sense you know you put that it's you know can we make our commanders a stronger so that we can't be forced out if we don't have a strategy and we'll lose everything and that'll be it took them a body double bubble child back in the music territory at the moment the situation is calm but while the threat posed by armed groups has receded environmental destruction is a growing problem. the children's play is almost over. and it has a happy end and means that brings new seeds for plants and breathes new life into

the animals. the people are given a 2nd chance this time the plants and animals have a message for humanity. just for you to climb the contour of the messenger of the sun king of the end i dream of our freedom at least let me live. don't live the woodpecker if we birds die there will be no more of birdsong and no more joy or anybody. can get a lamb i'm the butterfly we want to spread our wings please don't clip. i made an armadillo please don't kill me. this week we plan our visit to a living room in kenya. and

. this is my main area this is where i spent most of the time in after walk after they had they had to walk my t.v. it is the work of my hands and i really really and i mean i love being black that's why my house is mostly black. my fastball livy my 2nd born andrew is that my dad

born jeremy my 4th born said very grateful to god for us interestingly be them. they make me feel most and stronger every day. this is the. only leg hand so good she's also part of our family and those that i'm in love with my table very very much i'm a little technician but i also do other 30 things. beauty industry and . i work to be really had to get it that's why i treasure it very had it is one of

the most expensive didn't that i have been this fit in the room. bye bye thank you for visiting me i'm happy you know that come again and again. if it's like you. can india women are responsible for the family and household and play a key roles in education and farming but families still value sons over daughters and sex selective abortions of widespread the result is a gender imbalance the country is missing 16000000 women one village is bucking the trend. a grandmother wields a pick axe so it's

a ranch but is planting the 1st tree for her baby granddaughter all of the families here follow the same ritual there are $111.00 trees for each newborn girl. made. when i was born my mother and father were very unhappy that i was a go today we're planting a tree because we're happy when i got one if my parents had experienced this and i'm sure they would have been proud of me to. get a beer to maybe even to go a lot has changed in the village of people on tree thanks to sham sunder polly he came up with the tree planting idea 13 years ago back then he was mayor today when proud parents introduce him to their newborn girl he can barely believe that they haven't always been like this but 13 years ago girls were still regarded isn't fieri are as worthless children. he continued into adult it used to be that women weren't allowed to leave the house alone you had to hide behind the curtains

as a man's doing they were afraid something would happen to the women but this is changed dramatically. and it's not just thanks to the trees now parents pledge to not marry off their daughters before their 18th birthday. they're also required to educate their daughters in return the village community opens a savings account for each girl. when my granddaughter was born it was if the goddess luxury is good fortune has entered our home now we deposit $150.00 into a savings account and she on sunday or gives us twice that amount the little one can later pay for her education of course we also plan the treeless to. was an. idea for the trees and the education fund has a very personal motive 13 years ago his own daughter died he doesn't like talking about the exact circumstances afterwards the businessman fell into

a deep depression he thought a lot about how girls in india are often harassed and disadvantaged he had a monument put up in his daughter's honor but it wasn't enough he wanted to do something more. if. i planted the tree as a memorial and as a way of coping with my grief but i soon realised that one tree wasn't enough. if that's why we started this program $111.00 trees for each girl it has to be as many as that of this area had become a total waste land and now you can see the result. but you know the region around people on tree is full of marble cory's this is how it used to look 13 years and 350000 new trees later a dense forest now surrounds the village it's a blessing for the microclimate in the hot summer and the village of 5000 is now more prosperous because the forest is cultivated local see the boom is directly

connected to the support for the girls things are changing now there are just as many girls as boys in the classroom 10th grader come on polly explains why it often looks rather different in the rest of india. but boys get an education and girls often don't but that's seen as a burden that's also why so many females are aborted killed right off the bat born that's led to their being fall fewer go than boy. 13 years ago mother was one of the 1st people to plant trees for her daughter even though komal was already 2 years old at the time her mother wanted to take part when komal goes into the woods today she knows that some of the trees bear her name it's a great feeling when they cannot pick up this. what benefits may have come in their locker this is a look at it the trees give us wood and best fruit. we plant them because they're

useful. now that things in a sense because our mothers planted them we see them as a brother. it's because am i to buy is only love and i will she sunder is now famous in india politicians and entire university classes come to him to hear how he succeeded in improving living conditions for the girls and the entire village but the many trees and with little money. moving to the congo but inevitably to them. since he appeared as a guest in a celebrity special on india's version of who wants to be a millionaire the whole country knows him it's. going to be a sort of argue i never would have thought that it would become such a big thing. with regard to people are coming here from everywhere stop for you but many of them come to get ideas and they want to do the same thing. it's gone gold

it's a great mix of them or the little guy getting it on line and they thought. when it all gets to be too much for him he withdraws to the forest this is the tree that started it all the tree that he planted for his deceased daughter. she on sunder says that at least her death had a positive effect its daughter would certainly have been proud of her father. is this week our world wide search for the tasty snacks takes us to iceland. the icelandic landscapes are spectacular and you don't even have to leave town to enjoy them even from the center of reykjavik there are breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains because it tends to be pretty cold for most of the year but so far as a coffee there's a small restaurant where you can warm up and enjoy the local speciality soup in

a bread bowl. tiësto this a perfect base for this. because the white yesterday was raining apples to cool soup. now is cold so we're. here also a few days after the ship's name is unpronounceable for anyone who doesn't speak or slandered survey one calls him sick. his restaurant is a small family business the 1st opened in 2003 with the same concept it still has today. we have 2 cans of soup we are always chasing is always one where 2 year one week soup cooks day we're very much to serve as a both of them a cream based to a source of all the wonders of hungary needs to make you hungry and his life more like you have a proper curfew on your minutes and next rest to both freshly made every morning the soups are served in a bowl made of bread. is. our choice because it's also going to be hard so the soup doesn't get. destroyed.

just. so i. get that. right but. the super sensitive 6 costs around 14 you're a fairly cheap icelandic standards and one reason why this little cafe is so popular with both locals and visitors. secu serves about 600 soups a day in winter the weekends get very busy you can see the faces of people who are using it to his leg they enjoy it and that makes me happy that's you know one of the reason i'm stupid. claim going to cool. that's all

welcome to the program. u.s. president donald trump has signed into law a $900000000000.00 coronavirus relief package that would deliver money directly to businesses and individual taxpayers president retreated from his fret to veto the bill and from his demand that congress increase stimulus checks from $600.00 per adult to 2000 that's something democrats pushed for and his own democrats own republican party opposed the delay of almost a week meant that unemployment benefits lapsed for millions of people and threatened a government shutdown. go over to our correspondent in washington oliver going to have you with us this relief package has been a long time coming what is in it exactly for whom. so we're talking about a more than 2 trillion dollar. u.s.

dollar relief package wm $900000000000.00 u.s. dollars in direct aid and $1.00 trillion to fund government agencies so large amounts of money in the 2nd relief package since the pandemic began so mostly that money is used to provide financial support for businesses for unemployed individuals as well as for families and then every religious person would receive $600.00 u.s. dollars in direct payments and that will most probably take another 2 weeks according to export for the experts from the treasury department to pay that money out so they receive pins remember donald trump as you just mentioned also don't call for 2000 u.s. dollars in direct aid and refused to sign the bills that bill full long periods of time and it seems very much like he has not accomplished anything on that and except sewing a lot of uncertainty here in the united states and as you know donald trump's been

all over the place for or against more money for corona aid and relief what made him finally change course and signed the bill. well there's just a couple weeks left in his presidency and of course he does not want to be the one the culprit in fact for millions of americans ending up without food ending up without being able to pay their bills and to make ends meet of course he rather wants to be the one you know calling for more aid and that's exactly what he did and now congress has to vote on this 2000 u.s. dollars proposal that all trump made and the democratic controlled house of representatives will certainly or very likely support that idea ironically of course because it's not donald trump's party and then the house will send this bill to the republican controlled senate and this is where the again with the republicans have the majority in the bill will very likely fail there but donald trump in the end will be able to say i try and congress denied and funny you

mention the republican controlled senate because that could change coming up based on the battleground state of georgia it's runoff election for 2 senate seats next week the democrats need to hold both of those seats a scuse me win both of seats if they want to control the senate and you were down there in georgia following one of those democrats hoping to become the next senator for georgia let's have a look stay by stand by while we have a look at your report. all i is are on him a 33 year old democratic hopeful and a major challenge. because it's a race georgian senate candidate john also if must win for the democrats to win control of congress the stakes are high and so are his goals and this is about. jobs and justice for.

establishing health care is a human right in the united states investing in clean renewable energy degree. jobs and solve the environmental crisis passing the new civil rights act to secure equal justice for all regardless of the race these priorities require us to win these 2 senate races so that we can enact legislation in the public believes he has a bright future i think this is history in the me i think in my lifetime i will see john r. soft as president of the united states john as if i think it's representative of the future of america and i think this the senator that he is that he is opposing represents the old america latin and those are american hand men who waved as where they can afford health care but i do feel like going in an app is there will be a look out for the run of his

a big corporate unity full democratic hopeful john also in his attempt to unseat the republican incumbent david per june but the runnels remain a neck and neck race in georgia has been a republican stronghold for decades until now so who knows the fate of the biden presidency lies in his hands the free testing vaccinations for every american in a recent campaign ads by going to appeal directly to george and voters let me be clear i need raphael warnock and john also in the united states senate to get this done. or folks in congress trying to do everything in the power to block our efforts. in a suburban new savannah democratic activists julius hall is volunteering to convince voters to cast their ballots. voter turnout might decide this runoff especially among african-americans so you dylan. thomas and they are trying to get there by the get out and vote. we got you on the list as

a democrat we've been behind so long in this country. and so when you get a sense of you were on the raw as and things are happening where we are there is some inclusion and then you get a. clown that takes office for 4 years which is donald trump now we get rid of him and we feel like we can over again. the pressure is mounting on john also if in the final days of his campaign but his supporters keep dreaming of his victory. and back with all of our salat in the studio he's in washington oliver you were down there in georgia we just saw you met the candidate you met a supporters but george a very republican state but a weeks ago to this election how are also of chances looking. well william it looks like a very close election perhaps of the likes of the presidential election or even closer but there's certainly something that has changed since november and that is

donald trump of course lost the presidential the presidential election and with that also he lost a lot of momentum certainly not on the ballot in georgia but he's still representing the republican party and he's still campaigning down there by the way next week so in an effort to help his candidates down there donald trump discredited the election as you know repeatedly called it rick and that resonated with many american voters now the big question is can the republican candidates on the ground down there in georgia still mobilize the voters given that the his very own party of their very own party holds the election rigged adding to that is another problem one of the 2 candidates kelly lefler of the republican party again even called for boycotting that election she's now back pedaling actually she's saying go out to gold bugs she certainly has a credibility issue there david perdue the other republican candidate had a particularly poor campaign so that's all not in the favor of the republican

candidates but again the quote the polls if you look at them right now they look very close like a razor thin if at all and it will all come down to voter turn out in the end all over if both democrats can't win in georgia and what does that mean for biden. well for biden this is not only about a of course a senate run all of this is about the success of his presidency really because in order for him to be able to govern successfully in to undo many of donald trump's policies which of course has been part of his campaign he called it the battle for the soul of america in order to be able to do so he needs control of the senate that's the 2nd chamber of the u.s. legislature now if he doesn't win those 2 seats he won't won't have control even one seat would not be enough and so there's a lot of stake here and the republicans will very likely up struct all his attempts

to undo president trump's policies salant washington thank you very much and now a look at some of the other stories making headlines newly released security camera footage shows a the moment a christmas morning bomb exploded in the u.s. city of nashville authorities have identified the suspected bomber as a 63 year old local man who died in the blast and not established a motive at least 3 people were injured. francis paid tribute to 3 killed in a shootout last week ever gunned down responding to a domestic violence call in a small village police described as shootout scene resembling a war zone they say the alleged gunman committed suicide. european union member states have given provisional approval to the post trade agreement with the united kingdom allowing tariff free trade with the united kingdom to continue when

it leaves the single market on january 1st the deal still needs to be ratified by the european parliament which is expected to happen in february. european markets jumped on monday as germany's dax reached a record high it comes after a slew of good news for investors including a post trade deal for the stimulus package in the u.s. and the distribution of the corona virus vaccine across the european union. thousands of people have now received the beyond tech pfizer vaccine in the e.u. which began a coordinated vaccine rollout on sunday but supplies are limited and member states are prioritizing medical staff nursing home workers and the elderly that has put a growing pressure on the german government to ensure quicker production of the vaccine. the country will receive $1300000.00 doses of vaccine before the year's and that's according to the german health ministry but it's minister says mass production can't happen over night. i didn't they just that some people have the

impression that vaccine production one of the most complicated and challenging fields in the pharmaceutical industry could just simply be ramped up at will in the coming weeks to stop producing extra vaccine doses elsewhere in germany or europe to do this preparations need to be made those preparations are underway and our goal is to soon be producing additional vaccine in coordination with my own case cited in my book was that. it was german health minister again. chinese citizen journalist john has been sentenced to 4 years in prison for reporting on a covert 19 outbreak during the early months of the pandemic was detained in may after posting videos criticizing the government response lawyers for the 37 year old say she has been on a hunger strike and is in poor health. police pushing journalists back outside the
