decades of deployment in afghanistan international troops was set to pull out in april this year that was an agreement made that the government in kabul and the taliban but with the country's security situation still unstable that's no longer likely to happen peace talks have proved slow to progress large parts of afghanistan are under taliban control many experts fear the government would succumb to pressure from the islamist group should foreign soldiers pull out of the country terror attacks like the recent murder of 2 female judges have left many here fearing the worst. we're out and about in kabul with. the city is one of the most dangerous places in the world the taliban carry out attacks practically every day women journalists and judges are gunned down in the street no one feels safe. the 26 year old still drives her car

4:35 am
threats from the taliban who say yoga is an islamic and afghan women should not be doing exercise anyway. but these women are not frightened away by the threats and for the m.m. task refuses to be intimidated. me hi i am. here to quote show afghan women want to decide for themselves what jobs they do. they want to decide what they learn where they travel and who they marry. afghan women want to determine their own futures. and afghan women are not just same as the ones the taliban faced 20 years ago the son should be nice. back the only way to stop us is to kill us i dish to us. every lunchtime mum turns cooks at home with her family her 5 children and her husband support the 43 year old's work.

her mother is also proud of the fact that her daughter is well known even beyond the borders of afghanistan. but the yoga teacher only agrees to be filmed at home or in the yoga studio and not out on the street. we had arranged to meet her once before a year ago but then she said we received death threats from the taliban and had to close her studio temporarily. there than that even although my session or some other very prominent religious people began to comment on our work. than i had time for toys and on our photos. there's a well known declared jihad holy war on us it's angle matt that makes and get. a photo on the wall shows for us doing yoga exercises as a child yoga has become

beauty can stay open there is a lot at stake for afghan women at the moment never in the last 20 years has their freedom been so it risked. 2980000000000 tons worth of coal mined globally most was used to fuel the world's 2500 power station. many buildings are still heated with furnace is and coal is still a common fuel used for cooking but the consequences are disastrous according to the w.h.o. every year around the globe around 7000000 people died from exposure to polluted air. and coal burning is also playing havoc with our climate. stance capital bishkek is notorious for its smog on some winter days even merely breathing
4:39 am
in the local air can be hazardous 'd. the call is selling like hotcakes in the city of bishkek winter temperatures into. capital average minus 6 degrees celsius coal is an essential good because homes in the suburbs aren't connected to the city's central heating network. people buy a lot of these sometimes 20 bags at once. you can see there are private houses all around here and they all heat with coal. bishkek made headlines several times this winter for being the number one most polluted city according to an international air quality ranking people here say the smog is a problem every year in the cold season. is just a way in bishkek that the skies like this when you leave the city the skies clear. it's just the negligence of the government and public officials no one is
4:40 am
monitoring the situation and the smog is a direct consequence of that if you are good i think it's just fog it's definitely because of the winter season the country to be pollution which. the view from above the city tells a different story lies in a valley and smaug covers it like a lead care gives authorities admit they don't know why the pollution is this bad the country's prime minister recently said the city's mainly coal powered heating plant could be responsible for up to 20 percent of the missions the government looked into switching to gas but declared gas prices to be too high for now even representatives from public utilities are pushing for change. these problems need to be solved on a governmental level. i think that instead of worrying about the economy the health of our citizens should be the top priority because the smog and particles go straight into our lungs and can cause respiratory diseases which are very dangerous
4:41 am
. these air quality sensors regularly show that the concentration of cancerous particles in the air is several times higher. than the norm on nongovernmental foundation has been having them installed on private homes since the end of last year there are now $25.00 monitors up and running in and around bishkek. people are tired of living with this it's the 4th year the smog situation is like this and there's no solution in sight the 1st year totally ignored the situation and said the air is actually fine but now they can't ignore the problem anymore by installing these monitoring devices giving people the possibility to complain to the government about quality. but environmental activists feel the city authorities are all talk and no action they're protesting against the city's latest urban planning projects they say new buildings are blocking the wind and locking the smog
4:42 am
inside the city. these projects are only in the interest of the construction of the building contractors. in other countries they would have declared an emergency situation by now but here they just pretend nothing is wrong when you put it toward the. government environmental and safety inspectors regularly check the boilers in the city and the quality of the coal. today they're inspecting the heater at a local school even many public institutions still heat with coal. ordinary people will kill heating with coal that is the most cost effective way. we can't ban the use of coal in the winter people have to live they have to cook. once everyone has access to a gas connection into an affordable electricity supply there won't be smog here anymore. but kyrgyzstan's gas provider the russian
4:43 am
company raised prices 2020 and economic difficulties driven by the coronavirus pandemic mean many people just can't afford to switch to gas so for now the move away from coal and this layer of smaug fields far off. the effects of climate change are all focus in this week's global ideas to pin the philippines they're becoming increasingly noticeable. the motives islands are home to 100000 people many of whom i know living through fishing with the local ecosystem changing fisherman being forced to adapt and that's not.
4:44 am
i've been fishing for a long time for more than 25 years and i guess. it's been raining since midnight it's too dangerous to take the boat out. but we fishermen have observed how the weather has changed the strong easterly winds that we see right now should have passed by no one would. but it's possible they'll continue until march 1 that's when they stop last year the weather no longer follows the usual pattern. the rainy season used to engine january and february used to be one of the driest months of the year climate change has changed all that fishermen have to be very attuned to the weather and notice every shift in deviation. colin sarah nina has 4 children 2 have already
4:45 am
left home his wife jocelyn tells us they have managed to raise a family even if food that is fish has sometimes been scarce. and. that's what we get from the sea. and a source of income. that we were able to send our children to school that i was so you know i knew i want money and i'm very proud of that that my husband and i never went to school but it just wasn't possible. later in the morning the weather improved. calling 7 you know soon caught 2 large fish he'll sell the red snapper. it weighs more than 5 kilos.
4:46 am
on a good day he catches 15 kilos of fish the family always keeps a portion and sells the rest to others in the neighborhood. before the pandemic he used to sell to a trader who supplied large markets it was profitable but the markets are closed for now his neighbors can't pay those kind of prices just an uncertain you know does the bookkeeping. when they have money to spare she deposits it but the savings club. and the savings club someone want to show the savings club is like a bank for us what we bungled it is that we don't have a bank on our island but when the savings so we came up with this. so that people can learn how to save money not me but. most people in people are live from
4:47 am
fishing. there's not much else to do here. the local savings club was set up 4 years ago. and official from the municipality looks after the money the club has $400.00 members the deposits currently amount to the equivalent of about 8 and a half 1000 euros. we meet once a week. and that's when our members bring their money. some deposit 20 pesos others 40 a few even 50. pieces 20 pesos is a 3rd of a euro it will buy you a bottle of water and that's all some people can put aside after a week's work they would probably have even less were it not for efforts to protect the island's coastal waters from overfishing in 2005 marine protected areas were
4:48 am
established where no fishing is allowed and the fish can breed in peace. impede our volunteers patrol the coast around the clock. this is their guard post. he's protected areas have made a big difference for stocks we're doing dealing here but since 2005 they've been increasing. these areas have really improved the situation for the fishermen but. the german environment ministries international climate initiative is supporting the fishing communities efforts to help themselves. suzanne cateye yo heads the municipalities disaster relief unit she helped set up the protected area. n.p.r. we experienced so mainly changes may be that's the.

they ventured out of their comfort zone to try something new the pandemic left them no choice. cooking for guests at home was the obvious thing to julia. no extra rent to pay no need for fresh cow. what's more unlike a restaurant we know in advance how many people we have to shop for so we hardly have to throw away and if. they offer a set menu and change it every month it cost the equivalent of $45.00 euros a head which isn't cheap by bangkok standards but there's no shortage of guests the 2 chefs suffocating optimistic. back to its place time to add some truffle to the resort to. hear the menu costs 125 euros drinks extra. but despite the high price he too has plenty of eager customers.
