3:47 am
a bit beyond just takes you night of the grim reality of life. in london the triplets sienna monica and kayla practice their gymnastics it helps them to stay limber as the monks at home pass or to an unusual guest drops by. he might not be able to join in the exercises. but he's an attention getter all the same. my favorite animal used to be ok it is just that they've younger like greedy he really like. you they really self. think being fun performer and. such contact to the outside world can also far the girls imagination we don't have the opportunity not to go to a farm or to
3:48 am
a see so we can see the animals and you know most people believe that their animals out there are too sick so it's fake they call me and the kids love it. back and rosendale dot is delighted with her goats unexpected popularity but she harbors no illusions about the future. i definitely think once upon a time it was over the goats or fly from that position of fame back to new but i don't rebel and. readjusting in the barn. after. our next story is far less idyllic it takes us to the russian town of kissel created in one of russia's largest coal mining regions the area of supplies around 60 percent of the country's coal and it's also known as russia's black heart the
3:49 am
air quality is among the worst in russia and in fact things have gotten so bad that even the snow has changed its color. this is vitaly shuster shoveling snow but it isn't any old snow underneath there is a substance of that looks like a black marble but it's actually black snore that's fallen from the sky coal dust has darkened vitalis house and his garden leaving a palette of black grey and white. sometimes the burnt. my face with while i work gets dirty. vitali lives in insults said burey i'm millions of tons of coal have come out of the ground in the district dating back to the 1920. is that coal is mainly used in
3:50 am
the metal so industry. is of the basis of the local economy and its biggest problem when there is no wind to the smoke is so bad that it's difficult to brief according to locals and your study found that twice as many people died of a respiratory disease in us as in the rest of russia. if you tally and his neighbors have had enough of life here a year and a half ago they made a video of the black snow and ask the canadian government for asylum. you mean you know we have children and we don't want them to get cancer from the polluted environment. is the most amazing thing was that the canadian prime minister who is very very far away reacted faster to our video for her own officials. the authorities here ignored as at 1st and then later our governor accused us of being
3:51 am
traitors for the whole and. us region. almost how ferocious industrial waste comes from this region. 86000 presidents are among the worst affected. a large amounts of coal by products create toxic flammable and radioactive waste. we ask the governor off to comment on the activist accusations they also told us they are doing everything they can to minimize the effect of environmental pollution on people here including by resettling them and by providing coal companies with modern air filtration systems. but locals here say they haven't noticed any of that according to a journalist and environmental activist natalee are supernova for years now she has been calling for action from the author. she recalled
3:52 am
a video message from people in the canadian government but the video made headlines across russia. and says the local police have been trying to intimidate her ever since. your values. moved down the chute of course i'm scared but in this current situation i'm not only afraid for my own safety and the safety of my family but also of a horrible incurable disease i could get because it's about air i'm even more afraid for my health than of the police or the authorities. wish. to apply to register. vitaly doesn't believe the governor of boss wants things to change either instead he wants to leave. but it's not so easy. i would sell my house in an instant
3:53 am
but it's impossible you can get rid of an apartment with an entire house i've been trying for 2 years but only 2 people have responded in fact the whole time. the government recently announced an increase in the coal production here to help make up for falling prices. a dark day for vitali. and his neighbors. and the pressure on the journalists. we just saw has increased she has now gone undercover we next take you to the northern part of europe where there still is plenty of white snow it offers the perfect landscape for those who love to ski but now because of the cold 19 pandemic skiing has gotten a lot more complicated than secularly in the kalends sports center which lies right on the swedish norwegian border covered jurisdictions have led to some rather
3:54 am
peculiar safety measures. up until recently norwegians and swedes maintained the cross-country ski trails at the kulin sports center together now the swedish part is off limits to norwegian hands einar say tra he has to hand the snow groomer over to torah baghlan so torah can take care of the swedish side. maybe it would be smaller for one person. you can't infect anyone sitting in the cab after but we're not allowed to cross the border. as bureaucrats in oslo in stockholm think in less practical terms einar in torah have to disinfect the vehicle each time they switch it's one of several restrictions complicating winter sports for both norwegians and swedes in this area on the border during corona. we can't go into the changing and training rooms on the norwegian side anymore we
3:55 am
have to stay indoors. that's better during corona anyway. since 2007 ski clubs in norway and talks bush in sweden joined forces to manage the ski area with its 6 kilometers of tracks now skiers on both sides have to turn around at the border. i think it's stupid most of the ski area lies in sweden. our part here isn't all that break. but generally speaking people here are relaxed about the restrictions even if one venue has had to close. here. but now. and so corona virus has even clipped the wings of the norwegian and
3:56 am
swedish skiers. and that said for the 6th and this and i'll focus on europe thank you so much for your company please join us again next week until then take care and good but. the be. the big.

more than a 1000 years ago europe witnesses a huge construction boom. christianity from established itself. both religious and secular leaders or eager to display their power. machines trace begins. who can create the tallest biggest and most beautiful structures. stonemasons builders and architects compete with each other. this is home massive churches are created. a. contest of the cathedrals for. the whole 12 o t w. this
4:00 am
is d.w. news a live from berlin president joe biden announces an ambitious new timeline for vaccinate the united states he says there will be enough a dose is to cover all adults by the end of may and he urges everyone to take the shot when it's their turn also coming up on the show serious charges against manned mars military from the un special rapporteur are. blowing every. day in the military led by. crimes against. he says crimes against protesters include
4:01 am
a murder torture and forced disappearance of this. fellow and claire richardson welcome to the show u.s. president joe biden has suggested the country could make serious progress on its path out of the pandemic by independence day on july 4th biden said the goal of his updated pandemic strategy is that people are able to spend the holiday celebrating with their loved ones he hopes to achieve this by rolling out vaccines faster than previously anticipated let's take a listen to what he had to say we'll have enough vaccine supply for all adults in america by the end of may that's months ahead of schedule and remobilize in 1000 of vaccinators to put the vaccine in ones on calling active duty military freema retired doctors or nurses or administrator. and to
4:02 am
administer the shots and we've been creating more places to get the shots. indeed have you correspondent oliver salad joins me now from washington d.c. overbite it is now saying that there will be enough vaccine for all adults by the end of may and that is months sooner than the end of summer estimates that we were hearing even a few weeks ago why has the timeline been moved. yeah very vicious timeline clear because think back the president biden when he took office promised 100000000 doses in his 1st 100 days now you have more or less the same time frame. 330000000 eligible americans and that is for a variety of reasons of course in part is because of the former u.s. president that donald trump in all fairness that is criticized a lot over his poor handling of the pandemic but at the time he bought
4:03 am
a lot of vaccine doses and biden has added to this by facilitating by brokering you just heard him speak selvan explaining the military is involved in parts of the white house negotiated a deal between johnson and johnson and merck that are actually competitors but they are now working together to produce another 100000000 vaccine doses and that is already administered in stadiums and supermarkets there are a standby list so that really no that seemed gets thrown away but do not forget the u.s. has suffered from this pandemic like almost no other country with 500000 casualties so there's a lot of pressure mounting on the administration as well in the vaccination seems like the only way out and just to be clear does this then mean that every american who wants a vaccine will be able to get a vaccine by the end of may. yes. but of course not everyone who is eligible wants scene and then also you still need
4:04 am
an appointment so the distributional of course will take some other time and then you have the problem that not everybody wants it there's a lot of skepticism especially among minorities and that will be another big challenge for the biden administration to convince all americans to get vaccinated we also heard that in his speech when he appealed to everyone to trust science and get vaccinated however it's a big day in washington because biden on a thursday has also signed a mammoth $1.00 trillion dollar krone virus relief package what is that going to mean for the u.s. vaccination strategy. and that is the largest package of its kind in the history of the united states i think that's actually worth pointing out to there's a lot of concern about some macroeconomic questions resulting out of that size they are but it is money that is urgently needed there's $1400.00 u.s.
4:05 am
$1.01 time stimulus checks for americans that are suffering from poverty as a result of the pandemic unemployment support will be extended for millions that are out of work it will also help schools reopen and of course it will facilitate distributing the vaccine in the next weeks and months. correspondent all of his ballot in washington d.c. thanks for that update. well the european union meanwhile has been a lagging behind the u.s. with its vaccine rollout the medicines regulator has though now given the green light to the johnson and johnson shot almost 2 weeks after it was approved in the us in trials that johnson and johnson jab was a 67 percent effective at preventing people from getting cope and its advantage over the others currently available is that it only requires a single dose. of the approval comes as several european countries pause the use of the astra zeneca vaccine they say it's a precaution until they can rule out a potential link to rare instances of blood clots. denmark norway and
4:06 am
iceland have temporarily stopped all use of the astra zeneca vaccine after some people develop blood clots authorities say it's very rare and there's no known connection to the vaccine but they want to investigate that for sure should they do this i think it's the right decision to put the astra zeneca vaccines on hold for the time being until we have enough medical reasoning for continuing the vaccination and of course i'm as upset as everyone else about this and the potential consequences but it's probably too soon to conclude on this matter when there's a risk of course it has to be uncovered a part of her saying not i am a basically she could see from. the european medicines agency says so for the data shows the incidence of vaccinated people getting blood clots is no higher than unvaccinated one's view echoed by the british regulator 11000000 doses have already been administered across the u.k. . those countries that have decided to polls delivery they
4:07 am
made a choice. balancing risks i think ultimately it's likely that this will be found to be not a. not a cluster that's causally related to the vaccine book choice is to wait until it actually prove. the french health minister said he saw no need to suspend use of the astra zeneca vaccine france and germany are among the e.u. countries that will keep using it. what we call the risk benefit ratio which are the benefits from the vaccination as at this stage judged to be higher than the risks and of course investigations into that are in progress in france and other countries. intensive research will now be carried out and only time will tell whether the health authorities in denmark norway and iceland were justified in making their difficult decision. and a severe indictment from the un's human rights investigator on at myanmar who says
4:08 am
the new military regime is likely committing a crime against humanity with its deadly crackdown on people protesting last month's special repertoire tom andrews told the un human rights council that the military junta had murdered at least 70 people and that more than 2000 have been unlawfully detained he's calling for sanctions against the country's military leaders let's take a listen to what he had to say as of this moment credible reports indicate that mean more security forces should murdered at least 70 people that a president those murdered with fathers sons mothers daughters husbands and wives were educators they were engineers they were students they were many ages were going to half of those were members of generation c. or young people under the age of 20. mattered president their country i mean more is being controlled by a murderous illegal regime its current leadership perpetuated the atrocity crimes
4:09 am
that are the focus of the charge of genocide before the international criminal court of justice. un special repertoire on of myanmar tom andrews speaking there comments followed news that 9 protesters were killed by security forces on thursday beating more families mourning the loss of loved ones. she has a son is 2 months pregnant and a husband who is determined to join protesters on the streets of me and i don't know only what he goes to the protest every day even though i asked him not to. i told him there be trouble if something happens because we have a child and another baby on the way. i can't stop and now thought that. foo's children will be raised without a father or husband chipman food shot dead by security forces at a yangon protest. there you know downer any said it's worth dying for now i know
4:10 am
he's worried about people not joining the protests. if so democracy won't return to the country he's worried about democracy now what that has passed away. the violence isn't slowing down and me and my. peaceful protests are met with the issues for oppression and what rights group amnesty international is calling a killing spree. more protestors were killed across the country on thursday. the bloodshed not intimidating doors at the demonstrations. my lot in iraq we protest peacefully but they crack down on us violently it's ok the more they crackdown the stronger the revolution is we will continue until we win something now that. 7 the protests started last month in response to the military seizing power and detaining civilian leader aung sun suu kyi. the ruling you into made the most serious
4:11 am
allegations against her to date without evidence they claim suit she took elite group of $600000.00 us dollars and gold and pay from her party denied the allegations. the military also reiterated that they will remain in power until the new elections are held but haven't offered a date. that isn't good enough for the protesters who are vowed to continue their demonstrations no matter the cost. now a collage of digital images has sold for almost $70000000.00 and a world 1st for a meter auction house the work by contemporary artists of beautiful exists only as a j peg file and it was 13 years in the making people said the price tag which makes him one of the most expensive living artists in the world was on it fathomable when he better is now the owner of a digital asset known as an n.f.l.
4:12 am
team or non fungible token sales of which have a booth recently. well that has left us scratching your head then you may not be alone joining me now to hopefully bring some clarity to the whole world of digital art sales and f.t. is our reporter matthew or so matthew this person who's just spent $70000000.00 on artwork what exactly are they getting yeah almost ludicrous to say because the lucky bed will be taking home a masterpiece to hang on their wall which is a real shame muchly because they aren't working. stunning and instead they will take home a jeep paid with which is $21000.00 pixels. under the n f t and the n.f.t. is the norm fungible token and that's the key part that's the that's the expensive part and if he has a digital certificate of ownership of an asset in this case the artwork and the n.f.t. have been exploding in popularity recently a basically n.f.t. exist on what's known as the block chain and that works like this if i send you
4:13 am
a photograph typically on e-mail or. fornes i have a copy and you have a copy of the block that doesn't work so i send you the photograph you don't have the 4 to graph and i no longer have it and you are the owner of the 40 graph or in this case an n.f.t. unknown fungible talk and this is the future yeah i mean i can imagine why that would be appealing to digital artists who want to actually be the owners of their work and have that you know create some kind of value i mean do you think this is going to be the future of art auctions i certainly think if you can send you to see prices like the one we saw today $70000000.00 then. hoess will turn a dollar i mean i don't think this is a flash in the pan either people who goes by the name mike winkleman he sold a work of our a few weeks ago while a piece of his was sold for $6600000.00 we can see it here 10 2nd clip. so that just gives you an idea it's not flashing upon he's kind of
4:14 am
a latter day digital leonardo da vinci. but it's not just it's not just art works there's also people are selling tweets the n.b.a. is selling clips of. playing the best shots which sports fans can collect this kind of memorabilia and it can pay hefty prices falling to $200000.00 for one clip or one f.t. i don't know what kinds of an easy issue where this is going to go. it seems like it's the future of digital ownership and but others say it could be risky and if people lose interest it could lose value all right our reporter matthew moore we'll be keeping an eye on that thank you so much for breaking it down for us. that is your news update at this hour stay tuned for our covert in $1000.00 special and don't forget there's always more on our website w dot com you can of course also follow us on instagram and twitter at news and
