acres and acres of tea plants did you know that tea grows here in europe pay a visit to the continent all this to plantation and find out where it is later on in the show. ivory one a welcome to another edition of your i'm actually me your host meghan lee here's a look at what else we've got coming up on the program. how won the french skater is a wow we knew his fans on the internet. and is this the food of the future. styx from a 3 d. printer. have you heard the expression
2:03 am
actions speak louder than words well as we are about to find out that is not always the case words like these pack a punch and are normally found in comic books but some architects have decided to incorporate them into their works to bring another dimension to a building's appearance one prize winning design is causing quite a stir in you nick. those are. the facts 1st the media expresses its millions he hasn't heard so it's a creation of the renowned dutch architecture for m.t.r. t.v. and recently won the most prestigious architecture award in germany the written word it seems a somewhat different function to speak of. a building as used by various companies and institutions often they display their lose in big letters and facades looking for we didn't want that image i think that would push the building itself too far
2:04 am
into the background the way it is now i notice can only play a very minor part of the whole block. the center for tree sites has been a scene for creativity for years now. the architecture firm called upon local artists to think of works that would look inside the original on the building. together with your coworkers christian engelman and his colleague with a couple of snappy ideas. if we wanted to approach it with the sort of coding for example and so the time short times long short. realize it didn't work it was 3 times the length of the original in fact most coding is wrong but in the real. law the cyber sure but we finally arrived at the language of comics that was a long process and we quickly realized that was what we like best and only does it
2:05 am
see something that expresses a feeling and that was important to us and the. letters are seen in other facades as well on this gas receding station in the netherlands they represent a chemical element on this library and called to see eastern germany the letters overlap on and. on this former chapel in the portuguese capitalist been the lettering expresses. blessing. and his designs and. invites visitors to dine and read and dream. different heads that let you see him in their lives she doesn't always see words in architecture is a good idea even if she likes to play for element. and i think it could present something of a problem in architecture because it has to be planned for the long term and once the word becomes part of it then it's cast in concrete in the literal sense of the term is to say you can't be flexible but you have to consider whether this bird's
2:06 am
going to be attractive or interesting in 5 years' time or is that a topic we're only thinking about right now. the overboard one in construction in munich isn't the 1st building for water time based m.p.r. d.v.m. has experimented with lettering. the architecture firm tried this idea on the off of it will do you know amsterdam and the white house in taiwan. and they designed this building in detroit michigan covered with words and paintings and graffiti stuff. well new buildings on a former military base in mannheim germany form the letters and andrew. combination with the letter architecture can take on another meaning and normally the only words in the building are advertising she's not who shines the architecture. we should approach it differently and integrate it better than for
2:07 am
you and your. person he's an unforgettable impression of. the words from comic culture are not intended unique attention. next up we had to paris to meet someone who is on a skateboard frenchmen as a play on our land isn't exactly the youngest turning tricks on 4 wheels but he certainly attracts a good following on the internet and that is thanks to his creativity agility and sense of humor he's even inspiring nonce gaiters with his clips let's take a closer look. doesn't take himself too seriously. he's been posting his one of a kind skate videos online for 5 years they're an internet sensation.
2:08 am
by the name of the truman burbank like jim carrey and the truman show the frenchman loves the legendary hollywood movie and just like in the truman show his urban environment becomes a film that. i used to play the clown in the classroom i love to fool around. and the thing i just improvise once i arrive on the scene. invent ways to use them. is entertaining clips are a hit with people from all walks of life not just skateboarding fans. creases the world and i. try to do for high levels. conventionally i want to entertain and i don't have to be the best skater out there great thing about myself is that they don't have anyone iranian american. portuguese can understand. the persian 1st.
2:09 am
4 by the time he was 16 he was practicing 8 hours every day his tricks are inspired by his surroundings like this construction site in a paris suburb. only decided to. try to get creative using it. to pull off new. having rocks to the greatest key for making this path and. as this is his special board. unique it's something. that makes jumping easier. very small hard wheels because the harder they are.
2:10 am
this may look easy but it requires a lot of effort at 35 as one of the more senior skaters around. you match in along here just raising a board but in reality forming tricks is physically demanding especially when you're doing 2 or 3 in a room. and it's mentally taxing too there's a real risk of getting hurt. has turned this club or skate tricked into real sketches fans the world over and give them plenty of positive feedback. i get a lot of messages some people tell me they enjoy maybe even started skating because of other people tell me they're trying to recreate certain stunts. but the one with the beer trained that makes me happy of course.
2:11 am
in this spoof of baywatch a u.s. action drama t.v. series about life guards on patrol pokes fun at himself. i thought it was funny to put on water witnessing to light into a ridiculously shelled pool. for jumping into ocean waves and it was a nice contrast and. i never tried to take myself seriously i always see we're just skating not sitting why we're having fun with a board under our feet nothing more there's no reason to get arrogant was i think you're better than anyone else is about having fun of all. together a man does however miss one thing traveling all the other skaters are probably envious of his spot right by the eiffel tower. for tea lovers starting the day with a hot cup of brew is
2:12 am
a must well tea 1st made its way to europe some 400 years ago from asia but now there are a handful of places here that also grow it well the oldest european tea plantation is found in the azores a portuguese a group of islands in the atlantic euro max reporter henneberg belling headed there to find out more for our series europe to the max. today i'm visiting a tea plantation on the doors. i thought i might make a cup of tea. and here i can do it from scratch this is where the tea leaves are big and roll. your eyes checked and checked and whoever wants to taste the food. i met the shark gauri on the tea plantation europe's oldest. they've been
2:13 am
cultivating tea here since $883.00 model in a motel is in charge of the 6th generation family owned business. the production it seems hasn't changed much over the years. the azores are remote archipelago that belong to portugal they are located some 1500 kilometers out in the atlantic so miguel the largest of the 9 islands is ideal for growing tea thanks to its mild climate eeriness or as the learned to hassett the roots are very big so makes the thieves very fresh not aggressive so it's a. thankless called fresh because it's easy to drink. the tea is harvested between april and october today i'm helping out. the plantation is $45.00 hectares in size several times per season about 30 harvest
2:14 am
workers head out to hand-pick young teas sprouts each year the company produces about 40 tons of. actually i'm just happy that i didn't have to take every single in but this bag gets to be there what. can you tell i would. ok people on the azores began growing t. some 200 years ago after the orange trade collapsed. i only think like that the factory she's alive they're going to die so we are the ones doctors that are working did to. that effect there but i'm go one day i'm going to go out i hope and then my. that effect to stay alive did they once come. the tea is harvested and then processed for this it must be
2:15 am
transported to a tea factory and. they used to be several tea factories on the azores today shocked arianna is the only one left. processing tea leaves take several hours in a 1st step i make sure the tea leaves dry in large bets. afterwards the tea leaves are wrote the machine circular motion damages the leaves so walls and loving selflessly to seep out and interact with oxygen that's what gives the process its characteristic smell. yeah. yeah let me make it back. here. i don't believe that. there are 3000 t.v. righties though they all originate from one and the same plant where the plants are
2:16 am
grown which leaves in varieties are processed determines their flavor. because there are no pests on the source chuck ariana t. is grown without the use of artificial chemicals. the company produces black green and long. finally the time has come to sample the carpets but 1st piece are one where. because. you so to drink coffee yet the morning i drink one coffee because coffee make you read the energy team make you focus gifted people and so teach having to drink to choke it's what gave me this. and so my fantastic visit to shargel rianna tea plantation comes to and. to be honest i'm
2:17 am
a passionate coffee drinker but after i experience today how much manual work and dedication is put into the tea production here i see a cup of tea with completely different eyes. and we have a brand new book to accompany our europe to the max reports featuring 111 extreme places in europe that you should not miss now if you would like a copy of this book then enter our viewers draw just go to our website for all of the details. so how about a succulent printed it begins steak that's right you heard me correctly printed now one startup in spain has been experimenting with ways of producing healthy and environmentally friendly alternatives to meet the result is a 3 d. printer which turns out edible cuts we head to barcelona to find out more.
2:18 am
in the kitchen at the outset to our economy restaurant north of barcelona chef and trust that can teach us is preparing to steaks but only one is a piece of a real meat. the one on the right is an imitation. well this is a normal course of feel how the other came from a 3 d. printer going to be hard to believe that there's a tear in the texture is almost exactly on the scene as though to meet them at. a steak fresh from the printer it's no longer science fiction we find out how it tastes later. it's the creation of biomedical engineer she said shante has started up north and meat has developed the 1st stake from the fed shipping protein to be 3 d. printed and it's thoroughly began but the look and feel of a real stated. there are many alternatives on the markets right
2:19 am
there in. the in the cheek crucis such as hamburger meat guns or sausages. what we have before is a state with the texture of beef. is the 1st of its time. to look at someone else you're not going to go to. the steak is made of powdered pricing p. protein algae fiber and bread be chouse her color and the printers job is to press the bra mixture into thin i 1st the device is still a prototype it takes 20 to 40 minutes to print out one. the printer. is very. internal structure of the.
2:20 am
company. on the basis of. the imitation. as if. the other.
2:21 am
among other things research. traditional. systems of different forms of production i don't think meat will disappear just because alternatives are available. the consumption of others. and. the taste of his steak should be shante regularly but he knows how to out the restaurant. and she is an expert on fine meat including japanese kobe beef as well as exotic varieties i can go through and come out. of the restaurants kitchen the to test the progress of the 3 d.
2:22 am
printed steak and compare it to the animal sourced original spec as it is i think i'll soon have it. but with the help of an expert to let you sit on it we will find the right moment for a test run. in a month or 2 you'll be offering something and start better in the month subsists currently find a restroom. at the north for a bit and very soon be shaun t. plants to put his feet to stake into production and offer it to a wider public. when the german sculptor jesse strakes never gives you a jacket socks or even a pair of underwear you'd better take a good look at them before trying them on that's because the artist creates her works out of wood but the objects looks so much like the real thing that she's even managed to anger some gallery visitors who couldn't tell the difference and that's
2:23 am
precisely this reaction the straight snare is going for. shoes underwear and ejected. they all belong to jesse street so. they might look like weeks in deceptively realistic but in fact they're heavy and totally unaware of all the items are inside me to move and then we still keeps their clothes the point is the main point is making extra hard material. and that makes me happy i just love to create the illusion that it's about. it's really not stuff it's workstation. the german auction saluting garments not only in the teeth of fabrics texture. the banal in routine to their simplicity. to complete this wrinkle. she starts with the plucking fruit and some piece of bread.
2:24 am
kleefisch michael if you will help in his approach how can i convey object into this blanket what how will it end up hanging how does the trick down every fabric hangs differently the raincoat is more jacob and only in its trade i can't just invent folds the viewer what to stand there and think to falter in the correct there but just look and say that something's not right. there must. jessie shares her workshop and units box districts with her father. before her training in which sculpting she had planned to become a primary school teacher but once during think she helped her father i discovered her love with working. mothers in cars the classic figures of seems increasingly it seems the tradition
2:25 am
within she rist touch. 10 so for instance that loses its. it just means you cannot . hide the figures always hang on the wall because they're especially sacred and magical and human and to many people clothes are magical and so by having them hang on while i'm trying to maintain a certain distance to the object and give this everyday items this simple sock. galleries are beginning to take notice of 29 year reaches the streets even if there would creation still enthusiastic response from the public in particular their underwear. once i had a visitor who came into a gallery when i was present and she was just outraged saying what kind of an installation is this because she thought it was real underwear and she was so
2:26 am
embarrassed that she even got to see it but i thought it was a fantastic it gives me satisfaction in my work that she thought it was real i don't wear i take that positively and not negatively. the streets knows we didn't have no new purpose. sculptures by german artists. were dressed with her collection for an exhibition i will i think gallery in amsterdam. and finally the queen no once referred to her husband prince philip as having been her strength and stay all these years now he's passed away at the age of 99 after spending his final days at windsor castle he'll be remembered for his rise sense of humor devotion to his family and unfailing duty to his country and on that somber note we finish the show with a look back at his extraordinary life for me in the rest of the crew here thanks

save mexico's cloud forests. but 1st we find out how faith. conker violence the for my gangsters finding god in brazil. the average number of people to be murdered worldwide every year is 6 per $100000.00 citizens that figure is 5 times higher in brazil last year an average of $114.00 people were murdered there every day that's $41600.00 certified over the year of all countries not at war brazil is one of the most dangerous countries for a particular hot spots when it comes to violent crime much of it gang led the military and police regularly move in on the areas and shootings the commonplace yet many young men see joining a gang as their only chance of a future and leaving is notoriously difficult. this evangelical preacher was once a boss of
2:32 am
a drugs gang. who seeks to make amends for his sins and wants to give others hope. when he speaks gangsters listen. i can't forget the sound of the kalashnikovs. he lives in rio de janeiro but nowhere near the beach. his wife always prays for his safe return whenever dimitri on march eans sets off to preach in a dangerous neighborhood come on he himself grew up in the slums and ended up making lots of money through crime. and. all this. unfortunately i did bad things. kill people. that's why today my mission is to convert drug addicts and criminals.
2:33 am
he's on his way to a prayer meeting it'll be the 1st time he attends one since the pandemic hits me. while gangsters patrol the streets with automatic weapons dimitri on my chains prepares to deliver a sermon. evangelical christianity is booming among the poor in rio this is one of the many churches in the favelas. if you go astray you usually have 3 options get killed go to jail or end up in a wheelchair that's my message to you and you are. the church's pastor is get the service going extatic practices are typical of this brand of christianity there are a lot of young people in the congregation.
2:34 am
dimitrios asks anyone to come forward who has a friend or relative in a drugs gang. and. soon half the gathering is standing in front of him that's when he starts talking about his time as a gangster. and they are. here what kind of life did i lead i had money and power but i had to hide every night because i couldn't trust anybody. not even my friends but he. later back at his home he told us he never got a good night's sleep as a gangster but he had had high expectations when he joined up as a poor boy from the slums he saw it as a chance to be somebody. let me see why i was that. i started to take drugs and got in with a bunch of criminals and we would attack other guys. i rose up through the ranks to
2:35 am
become boss in the complex so i'm out. he reached his criminal zenith in the late 1980 s. and early ninety's a wild time with lots of partying and lots of drugs. dimitrios oversaw 25 drug dealing venues as the right hand man. fights with rivals were bad enough but attacks by the military police were even worst hit team caught him by surprise one morning. i was walking down a steep when i noticed i'd walked into a trap they started to shoot. * but i don't know i fell i was in shock he stopped bodyguards ran off.
2:36 am
but. since then dimitrios has been paralyzed from the waist down nowadays he spends his days going around the favelas preaching and trying to get gangsters to reform his own story is well known a bad man who found god in the path of virtue many people here find it moving. so often you that. he often talks to the dealers hanging out on street corners here . they seem to accept him and they pray together. even those who carry a hand grenade with them just in case. and i shall be the government needs to create opportunities for the kids here so they don't just make the obvious choice to become dealers or lose their freedom or even their lives what about going to be that are going to be. those who choose to go clean and renounce crime
2:37 am
are relatively few in number. wagner jody vega is one of them he got his 1st revolver when he was just 15. so i came up by page it's following the mold of my career went well i was soon one of the bosses and had loads of cash and then in a shootout i was grazed by a bullish couple as if it's going to get out the way they see it. nowadays he's deputy head of the local residents' association he helps people fill out forms and deal with the authorities. i'm up i think it all know me beneath the ceiling madness so all i have left from my former life are bad memories and scars i sleep much more peacefully than i did back then. that they are supposed to be bad to do me by. he's devoted himself to improving conditions in the neighborhood digging drainage ditches and clearing roads they plan to tarmac this one.
2:38 am
when dimitriy on my chains the preacher does manage to sway a gangster it's usually during a prayer meeting it's quite standard around here for dealers to attend and engage with the pastors. towards the end of the meeting a young man is moved to get up and tell his story of redemption. oh of course the part was sentenced to 14 years in prison and i found god and then i was released now i shall always walk with god. other congregants find such declarations inspiring it gives them hope then another dealer comes forward to receive the blessings that you've got the a c o 2 outsiders it might seem very odd that drug dealers can be god fearing. here and everybody must know in his heart what he is doing. because there's
2:39 am
a he declares his intention to live a cleaner life if he doesn't. i want to give up drugs. dimitry a march good example see. to be a healing influence helping others like himself to escape a life of drugs and crime. in may 2020 a tropical cyclone hit the coast of bangladesh millions of people had to flee for their lives storms in the bay of bengal often drive seawater far inland damming 2 of the country's main rivers the ganges and the brahmaputra this can cause them to burst their banks flooding large areas of land experts believe that climate change will inevitably make extreme weather more common the country's annual monsoon rains are already becoming increasingly heavy. they also fear that by the end of the century sea levels around bangladesh could rise by $1.00 to $1.00 and
2:40 am
a half meters large areas of the low lying country would then be submerged under water. in southern bangladesh the monsoon rains are getting heavier year by year and that means ever more extensive flooding. nowadays other diamont as fields are not just under water during monsoon season but for a full 8 months of the year so he's turned to growing vegetables on floating beds the water here is fresh not salty mahler has become a farming pioneer by reviving a technique that dates back many centuries. ago one of them by god i learned from my father a few plants on the water but he didn't do it systematically. i had one we've developed the technique further we don't really have any other option if we don't want to starve. my. mother has got used to
2:41 am
spending much of his life in and on water the venture is proving very successful. the goods are growing fast they're almost ready to harvest. i managed opposite of. grown on water taste better and contain more bitter moans we don't need any chemical fertilisers or pesticides so these vegetables are better than the ones grown on the much better. seedlings have already been planted on the adjacent bed the roots store nutrients out of the water and the beds are made up of the highest since decayed organic material compounds that fertilizers the plants they are held together by nets and hardly move there is almost no current here. of it all mother has become something of a star in his village his income is now 3 times the local average the whole family
2:42 am
works on the farm. his daughter is embedding good seeds in bulls of compost they will then be planted on a floating bed some as in bangladesh are innovating their methods in response to climate change have those teams of the what's a bit scary is that my father's out on the water all the time. it's getting hotter and hotter here and mosquitoes breed on the water and cause diseases. my father's often ill that's terrible because he is the only one in the family who earns any money so we get very worried whenever he is sick. in the neighboring village a break fruit tree has just been felled. the timber is a form of an under some a day has given up farming and now only builds but it's.
2:43 am
it takes him 6 hours to build a boat by hand the business is great he could sell a lot more than he can build. i don't know if you guys were very busy right now it's a tough time of year you know the farmers have to take to the water or port on rock on a you got to. think for us it's doubly good because we have to use up the would otherwise it will rot in the rainy season or the guy got out but we still offer the farmers a good price. on the 30th and. mine under some a dad goes to the boat market every friday. he may be 70 but he paddles the 5 kilometers there comfortably. hundreds of rivers flow through bangladesh and they have tens of thousands of trivia trace and low lying coastal regions like here in bury cell division is a growing threat to sea level this rising in the bay of bengal so rivers flow more
2:44 am
sluggishly towards the sea and spread out across the land salty sea water is intruding deeper into the interior. for boat builders it means more work on. the boat market stretches for more than 2 kilometers a longer xantia river these boats sell for the equivalent of 40 euros they are a bust and can carry loads of up to 450 kilograms mohandas some of debt has a number of loyal customers. it all depends on the skill of the boat builder experience i have boat so people like me but i've had to work very hard to get to where i am now. back at. dawn on roy has come to visit he's an agricultural engineer with the district of thora to use and stops by regularly the government is keen to promote floating farms all
2:45 am
kinds of crops can be grown on them spinach tomatoes cauliflowers as well as gawd's climate change could mean that a 3rd of the country will end up under water the question is if floating farms like here in barrie soul could be developed across the country. right now bangladesh produces enough food to be self-sufficient we don't have enough of a safe food food free of toxins and contaminants floating gardens make a valuable contribution because the farmers use a lot less pesticides because there are fewer pests on the water. at the local wholesale market sells his produce and also seedlings to other farm this. earlier he says they used to grow just rice and that involves much less work but switching to farming on water has proved to be much more profitable. going
2:46 am
. might be the son of god seedlings grown on longer weaker ours are more robust and look fresher. so we sell more than lamb farmers. mother water seedlings or greater demand and come on to higher prices. more and more farmers in bars sell up planning to switch to flushing cultivation and certainly no shortage of water. ok chief. travels on reporters often meet interesting young people like this week's global scene from thailand's. prime and i
2:47 am
was playing i'm 16 years old and i go to the international school of bangkok i'm currently a junior and i live here in bangkok thailand. i like to go diving because there's no other experience like being in the water it's just you and the water and you feel a sense of connection that nothing you can ever experience on land when you're connected to me it's here on that level everything just sort of disappears and you just realize how amazing and connected nature is sleep. i like to learn but i don't necessarily like. how schools are organized so i feel like it puts too much pressure on. getting good grades and set up just the aspect of wanting to learn. my
2:48 am
mom a parenting seminar company called into 60 degrees and my dad he just makes business still. hasn't now currently hopes to work in the you and i think you'd be really cool to just. be in the role of it all and try to make the world little bit more fair. afraid of world leaders because i have no control over the decisions that they make is what it feels like and when those in power have their own political agendas. that's when things get really scary. when i think about this. i hope that in the future people become more sympathetic towards others
2:49 am
and realize. how similar we are instead of focusing on our own self interests because at the end nothing can work without each other. and i hope that in the future we can all just come to terms of how everyone is different. yet we all strive for the same thing even if we hold different beliefs we all want the same thing. this week in global ideas we look at the told foaming tanks on. millions of hectares of woodland have already been destroyed worldwide to make way for agriculture. in a nature reserve in southern mexico more sustainable methods are protecting both farmers' livelihoods and the forests. it's daybreak and head to cut he is on his way to milk his cows he follows
2:50 am
a path up the number you grew up a mountain in a. biosphere reserve in southern mexico. legend has it that anyone who tries to take something away from the mountain will never return home. the slopes are shrouded in an almost primal mist there's been widespread deforestation on many of the other mountain slopes in the region farmers keep their cattle in the forests that remain. cows grazing on land that's fenced off to protect the woodland . yeah there went back and there was good with everyone i would want to copy wreak havoc in the forest they destroy everything contaminate the streams and cause ground erosion so if they run around the forest and it rains there be landslides. and with god fair lover hector keeps 20 cows he used to have many more but he got rid of half of them because he knows that traditional livestock farming is bad
2:51 am
for the environment decades ago his grandfather switched from growing corn and beans to livestock farming because it was more profitable. 3 years ago hector joined the project beall parsons which promotes cattle farming that's sustainable and doesn't destroy diversity his income is starting to increase and the environment is gradually recovering. but it's been a difficult few years. when little ball leave the article i argued with my father that was the 1st obstacle i had to overcome well i haven't been easy but i asked him to give me a chance. moment of weight if you think that when i took the risk of my small farm i went through some hard times very hard times i milked my cows constantly but the yields were low. which i later.
2:52 am
indigenous farmers traditionally let their livestock graze in forest pastures and also grew vegetables their methods were sustainable their expertise had largely been lost now their descendants are looking to revive it and save the cloud forest . jose antonio jimenez coordinates the bee opossums project in a state of chiapas right. you know meticulous planning facilitates the farmers switch to the climate smart livestock concept as you know is the region well and can provide practical support when necessary. the biggest challenge he faces is convincing the farmers to change the way they've always done things. up really but not the most we need to work with the farmers to identify problems together. we also need to work with them to find solutions when this process taking into account
2:53 am
