you think, you know, i would never have thought that i can say freely and constantly remind myself because i grew up in a completely different way. broad pluralistic jewish in europe. the 2 part documentary starts july, 5th, long w. two's me. whenever you find water trees, mineral, you often find people to read all reliant on beef and other natural resources to live with for communities living close to them. this is both the booth and the cars

onto the shore. lets with the people most impacted by increasing hunger for natural resources. hello, welcome to eco india funnel. but let's start. and the coal mines of central india, a majority of the country still gets its electricity from the colon burned from mines like these, while policy makers and activities got in a deadlock over the development worth of environment protection, debate. communities who live close to these mines, having to face some devastating consequences of report or travel to their willingness to find out more of the the go see anything except lines all the way up to the eisen

the. so i'm in india. what do towards the electricity still comes from call, which is considered the cheapest fuel. i want to find out it's to cost me goldberg district, and central india is a major power hub. and home to some of the biggest mines on the planet me for the faithful govern. just so i just like getting treated it all over my face. i spent a lot of days reading about cool and glow mining in this country, but seeing the mines on both sides of the road, all the way to horizon is a scale that you've gone comprehend. unless you're me, india is the 2nd largest producer and consumer of call in the world after china. and the demand for energy is rising faster than anywhere else. unlike in the u. s. b, u k, where natural gas was found,

india currently has no large scale replacements, call yet with its abundance of a no major alternative called remains the cheapest and easiest source of energy. and so extraction continued in june 2020. the prime minister announced $41.00 new blog spending around 470 square kilometers of land would be open for mining. and in february 2021, the number stood at 75. but burning call is already driving emissions dramatically up worldwide. and pollution from the shock smoke is not responsible for one in 5 debts globally. arguably, the most dial impacts of coal mining are local. i went to go meet communities that live around mines like this to understand the impact of call on their lives, on a way to avoid that. it's not even and this

is one among tens of thousands of villages that lie with an indian mining both around do because of the regions inhabitants are tribal or indigenous can. a village is literally sitting on a mine that is hollowed out the ground beneath it. the 31 indigenous families, he'll live with the consequences of the extreme proximity to a coal mine every day. my mother is a member of the tribe called the bundle i was born in this forest. she wants to show me what has now happened to this source. of fresh water it's completely black full of pool and i show you how to get the pin. this goes directly to our field. enter crops, don't group, nothing does. it's huge problem. it just settles there then just like it has here.

yes, it will tell it to him on the stream here is toxic. pick with the ash that means after the extracted call is washed, as well as with the remnants of dynamite that was used to glass the ground. the coal mining company was asked to provide fresh pipe water instead, but that is still due to a lot that even animals can't drink. how can v, what happens if you drink it? more than everything hurts we get headaches and fevers with this water bonding. why do we look talking things, getting heated up on the other side of the village and the bill of lading. company has seen people with down little company on the time the communities come today and so seems like getting them

to have made an agreement with us, but you don't do anything off work from what they want to explain is that this is what they have. every day, so this boy's filling a bottle of water to send back would be presented to the bosses. so they can visually see the kind of water that comes here and these people are the. so we went to the mine next door to give them a chance to respond to allegations of pollution. and here on this side of the story, we had permission to film in the underground mind, weeks before we went. but when we got the data, you speak to us all at austin city. disappointing that when i load and help me call rich central india is home to some of the most bio divers for us on the planet. aside from local water and soil pollution extracting call,

which is considered to be in national interest, also means destroying large tracts of old growth forests. even going to government estimates 164000 heck as a forest land have been lost to mining. since the 900 fifties, millions of indigenous people live in these forests, the rush call and other natural resources is displacing communities on an unprecedented scale. and this has remained largely under reported. i saw the story play out in every village i visited here some from the golf community had already been displeased from the ancestor lands some from the tunnel community. we're about to be displeased and others believe that dawn would come at some point . the dummy sharma is a renowned, independent land rights activist who works to improve legal and institutional support for communities which are at the risk of losing the land to mining.

we sat down for a chat about why the country is still investing in coal mining. that he's and by the number of all my interests actually increased in the alarming rate of the past few years, because there's a massive open edition, but it's a metal demand for the butler. but that's not an excuse. because again, i would see that that depends on the cut over our consumption pattern of a whole, consumerism. so if you are not really ready to listen, the people who are actually suffered the people who are the victims, the people who are actually sacrificed for your bod protection, for, for getting 24 to 7 electricity in the big cities. we cannot say that some religious have to be live in the dark. so this modern responsibility to listen, all those people we contacted the call ministry to address the allegations of the people we met in, goodbye. but they did not give us

a date to be interviewed in the week before the publication of this piece. while we were still in the region, the community with the polluted water received some news, they wanted to share the community again, they haven't read enough for dinner. tonight the news the celebrated, the welcome to extended to us as visitors was in stock contrast to the news. the village had john site wanted to share. this area has just been surveyed, and they have been notified that it will become an open cost mine. which means that any day, now this community will be evicted from the forest in the fall. this is my motherland

where i was born. what one so green. i remember the lippard, by enough birds snake, we were so happy then of the 31 families here. 7, do not have entitlement deeds to prove they belong. the government is responsible for rehabilitating those width papers. while mining has displaced people around the world, from germany to symbol in the history of rehabilitation, in india is especially poor. since 9051 over 2500000 people have been displaced by miles and less than a quarter. where do you have the up? it's, i've got to go get the little boost. i've done my now the government is asking us to leave this place where we go. we have worked on the land to make it for dialed and sustained. we don't want to be enemies, like we only want to save this land market. i'm not going to

stop in the morning. they led me into the forest to show me why they're adamant about not leaving this place. the bundle was used to including bows and arrows to collect fruits from the far that main source of nutrition is a kind of hugo. they dig out of the ground. they are largely a self sustaining community living off the forest. thank you. we are driving through the coal belt, we saw defunct mines everywhere, where extraction once boomed, but no, nothing remains, but blots on the landscape. completely bad, and they usually do religious hill before the mine came and set up about 22 years ago. and now the villages have gone and the mind has shut down and does nothing. that's, you know,

people for this new call. mine's normally have a lifespan of only a few decades. as the deeper you go, the less economically becomes to read them. so new ones open, 100 silently shut down across the country. this entire land behind me would have once been expensive for this fall of biodiversity and home to a number of indigenous communities. when you factor in the social and environmental cost cause doesn't seem for cheap anymore. this is the question we need to ask ourselves, moving forward, how do we balance growth and the need for development with the help and drives of local communities and the environment. growth in the west was largely powered by fossil fuels. but if you want to avoid the most dial impacts of

climate change, it's essential for the communities we just saw and for the climate as a whole, let's be fine, scalable, tony to school quickly on next story, our reporter contextualize of the history of course, and how it's likely to affect our future. the story of cold begins 250 years ago. when british invent has realized you could heat water with cold to make steam spin turbines and power machines. actually let 31300000000 years before the steam engine to carbon rich plumps died in swamps. millions of years of heat and pressure . 10. these puzzles into rocks packed with energy and back in the modern world. that energy was solely needed. the industrial revolution created machines, lots of lead to a global proven prosperity and unprecedented in human history. government built railways that linked coal mines to cities that help them feed treatment homes

hungry for cold. there were little to no alternatives, therefore it was very rational, was very understandable and was not that controversial. this is how you, he's an n g expert who studies have countries that have invested in coal, can mean a source of energy for europe. we can definitely see that that has been very good side of coal. through the 20th century economic prosperity came across the continent as well as piece that went on with the european union. but the prosperity co brings comes at the price. for more than half a century, scientists burning fossil fuels release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and heat the planet. it's already wasn't by more than one degrees celsius and he's on track for catastrophic 3 degrees by the end of the century. and cold is behind 40 percent of the c o. 2 that comes from burning fuels. but climate change isn't even the only problem does. it kills more than 7000000 people. burning coal releases

pollutants that get into your lungs and spread through your bloodstream, even reaching your brain. in the 1800s dr. those already knew that cold this back to your health mine, it's got sick from breathing in the dust, from blankets by fumes that crept into herbs and made families cough. but governments had tied their economy coal and they weren't willing to give it up. mining and burning cold damage of the climate and has people's health. and that's why the un is called to kit cold out of electricity by 2030 and rich countries. and by 2040 for the rest of the world. we need renewable energy and green jobs. no more fossil fuel subsidies or new coal fired power plants. so how's that coming along? well, global coalition have basically platter in south america and africa code has been used in the 1st place in the us in europe, code has been declining for decades. but across asia code just keeps on growing

me last year, china and india, but more than 2 thirds of all the cold that the world. but the rest of the continent is, is more cold and you and us put together. and the problem is that even just the coldest spending today, the new mindset, opening and power, pumps and building are designed to run for decades. now, some southeast asian countries cancel plans to build coal times last year. but india, for instance, wants to invest $55000000000.00 in coal, it with the next decade. and he spent several times on renewables to meet the targets. and then the china band, half the world's co, but have pledged slash carbon emissions to net 0 by 2061 report by 2 environmental research groups last november found out about that to me. it's climate goes. china must buy new coal power plant. double the electricity inmates from wind and so let me not to prepare to fully prepared to achieve that. this says she

way, john lead author of the report. he said that cold, tough built today, will become stranded assets, better unprofitable, to keep running. the most important, essentially we needed to, to just stop, build up for new assets, new office for a and so as possible. the industry disagrees with the world, may not light call, but the world needs cole. this is a speech by the parts of the world cold association in september 2020. but this is not about being all popular. it's about being realistic. the industry argues that it can make cold clean by sucking, see, or 2 out of power plants and storing it in the ground. but the technology, it's banking on is expensive and it doesn't exist at scale. each year the welcome cuts about 40 mega tons of c o 2 from industrial site. and you'll carbon emissions

are hundreds of times bigger. so how can countries, when cold, can china and india then from the west mistakes? let's look at the u. s. code has been declining there for decades of cheap alternative, like oil and gas. now, wind turbines and solar panels are making it full even fast. $36.00 times last year, and it's cut its capacity by 25 percent in the last decade. the politicians kept telling coworkers, but the future was safe. ah, you get another job. you won't mind anymore. do you like that idea? they should know. we don't like that. i do. we lived in mind, that's what we want to do. i said if that's what you want to do, that's what you're going to do. trumps may have done, but he wasn't. hello, this is call i'd be right. right now is the scientists have a problem. governments need to quit cold to keep us safe. but they also need to

protect the livelihood, the community, to live from it. and that's what jim needed. the closest final hard coal mine in 2018 up to 60 years of steady decline and did say without firing a single minor the government retrans younger miners and paid out older ones. he wants to retire early. but scientists say the energy transition needs to fat and faster journey dragged out its transition over decades. and even last year was still building plans to buy more coal. 2 research of the technical, university of berlin in 2019 found that a quick favor would have cost less and less mining communities adapt better. the cleaning on for too long with an old dying industry has a tendency not to support new alternative industries because these are being seen as a kind of competition that might speed up the process. so what can coal hungry countries like india when more than 700000 people work as miners take away from this?

well, politician should be honest with voters, that cold air is over and set a clear end date. then they could stop subsidizing coal company and put the money to retraining workers in new, sustainable industries for them and their families a lot, figuring out a plan b is indeed the was thing we can do at this moment. a local radio station in our current is already helping with this. the state of pro catastrophic flooding and forest fires coma, one of the sound of miles radio station connecting communities to discuss and tackled the most difficult and wide mental problems in the region. a reporter visited them to find out more rocky mountains and remote villages abound in the state of the con for the residents here cv and internet connection is practically nonexistent. oh,

a few years ago my one me a community run reduce station in the hills of smoke, they sure decided to do something about ready to go back to the station manager. moving in car d and his team produce up, graham that's broadcast to around $500.00 villages. last year have cleared the radio use other platform. if there are problems within our communities, we try to find solutions within the same model. when someone shares the problem, the facing on our program, then we can find solutions do as well. if locals don't fall in with suggestions, then we speak to experts who help listeners with fusions and advice on hunger thought that we give about this. and advice is in high demand here, especially when it comes to farming. agriculture is the primary source of income for the 350000 residents in this region. but the state is becoming increasingly

vulnerable to earthquakes, flood landslides and water scarcity as a result of poorly planned construction projects that are ill suited to mounting. a steady state, burgeoning hospitality industry has foot even more stress on rivers and lakes. this has to good water crisis in villages like fish were plenty. well the crisis has me my why needs education programs and farming and climate change all the more. welcome. 35 year old. you think that it was due fiscal mom wanting god. he takes great care to tailor the show to the needs of his audience, often reaching out to experts extra that will be one of our listeners called him and told us that the government is building expensive dom and dining room. and this is a wistful public policy decision in an already your logic and he's sensitive will be

from of using on the team is another big problem or you can pull it up. and you can local farmers, especially those when gauge in step farming and who use canal android systems to divert the flow of water to their fees are feeling the impact of these shortages. the total land, 80 dedicated to agriculture is reportedly shrinking as well. from all i need to you said you think it also works as a witness. the devastating effects of what is scarcity? first hand plug and pig will sell them at impact. the nature can be seen in the will feels in god was important. i have latrice have been completely destroyed a but i think the new a dot right, these that a furnishing. but they're too expensive for local farmers with small products, of course, to sell off pieces of the land as a last resort,

or they're selling one or 2. now, some people have even started selling off all of the land through which you can deal with the cushion thing, but golly, also tunes into whom i want to leave the farm or recently loan from the radio station that a solution made out of lyman water, which local calls, tuna can actually help protect his apple trees from getting infected with bacterial diseases known as apple blisters was not by me, i live in, we would have trouble with our trees. we would have to travel to know that almost 100 kilometers. now we get information from my radio station and we use that for our benefit. who else would have told us how to fix it? new or? fortunately, i got information from the radio and was able to divide my plants myself. have done

. got it done the way he got there. after adding a program about the impact of excessive pesticide and insecticide use that your team noticed changes in local farming practices who he show to do people use minimal amounts of chemicals in the prompts to go. and if you visit the field today, you will see that many problem with understand the harmful side effects of the chemical in the will follow to get a big challenge for the radio is funding grassroots issues don't attract, commotion advertises, nevertheless, the managed to get some public funding and support from and yield on this by these challenges, the non profit radio station has not only helped reduce environmental problems. it's also had a huge impact on the life and work of hundreds of villagers in the, in any district with the following the bus. you can the people, our communities and communities make the planet we live on. i hope that it should

have given you some context to how choices of consumption can affect the lives of others in different parts of the world. i'll leave you with that part and see we'll get next week from entire team and india and germany, goodbye. and thanks for watching the news,

the the the the the ah, you say it is for the new group. now as soon as you can get into

a deal with word ah, where i come from, we don't run away from confrontation. when i was 5 years old, my father took me to his friends and i was on the sport. i feel learn so early and to feel sole fencing is a language and a good thought. 5 is a conversation must lead your opponents understand best thing to new them in to get close. otherwise comscore it's not on like a tough interview really. when interviewing politicians or corporate c e o is you have to wait for the right moment. get to get around the defense, then make your move. yes, to take to get results. i've got office and i work at the w

me the the me, the the the old we can be the generation ends. it for good. malaria must die. so

millions can live the news . the news lives from berlin, g 7, latest pledge, 1000000, covered 19 vaccine doses for poor countries at their summit in england. well, discuss a plan to vaccinate the whole world. by the end of next germantown to the, i'm going to, michael says it's up to the g 7 countries to show the world. and not just thinking of themselves. also coming up football european championship is set for kickoff. the tournament gets underway tonight with italy against turkey in rome already a year light can euro 2020 be held safely during the pandemic.

ah, i'm rebecca writt is welcome to the program. global late is meeting in the united kingdom for the g 7 summit hosted by prime minister barak johnson. the summit is being held in cornwall amongst the g 7 leaders 1st in person talks annually 2 years . they are expected to cover a range of topics. we have a focus on the koran of our pandemic, the climate emergency, and the strengthening of multilateral time. 5 minutes, johnson kicked off the conference with a welcome speech. and i actually think this is a meeting that genuinely needs to happen, because we need to make sure that we learn the lessons from the pandemic. we may need to make sure that we repeat some of the areas that we've gotten it's made

in the course of the last 18 months. so we need to make sure that we not allow our economies to recover. and i think that they have the potential, the bonds not very strongly do you have any corresponding big masses in congress bay where the j 7 is taking place and he's standing by big it. he kept it pretty brief. but tell us, what was the main takeaway from barth. johnson's opening address it was in his typical man a, an optimistic and up beat performance that he gave, and he used the slogan at those of the slogan. for the g 7 summit build back better . he said that the inequality of the past must not be built into the recovery of the future. and you will say, said that he thinks that the, that the summit will be a success. but of course, we know that that devil is going to be in the details. you've mentioned that really

big, big topics will have to be tackled climate change the pandemic, but also foreign policy issues like russia and china. well, the need is that we're all smiles for the traditional so called family photo, but how harmonious is the conference expected to be? well, the geezer, the lead is all really on paul when it comes to the wish to showcase democracy. they want to show that liberal democracies are a good model of society. they want to make it attractive for the rest of the world . you as president biden in particular, wants to also make sure that the u. s. is back and back from its relative its relative isolation on the president trump. however, the devil is going to be in the details and we know that, for example, the us wants to be quite strong on china. whereas within the g 7, there are quite divergent views. when it comes to standing up to china,

for example, the chancellor uncle america said in her opening remarks that nothing can be achieved without, without china, for example, when it comes to climate change, bringing all the climate change. this could well be the latest last chance to make a real difference on climate change policy. you expect any major commitment by the g 7 later the pressure is definitely on here in cornwall all around me there, all protest is extinction. rebellion protesters and other climate change protesters and i speak to one of them and she said they have the feeling that the message is getting through. generally that there is a shift and the leaders are listening to them when they are preparing their various statements on what needs to be done. and the g 7 leaders will definitely, you know, for example, just today the international energy agency has said that the demand for oil is full cost to rise next year to pre pandemic levels. and the g 70 to have committed to

keeping the temperature rise below 1.71, sorry, 1.5 percent. but how to achieve it is going to be a big ask. and for example, one issue that climate change campaigns are quite strong on is to stop, to stop the x is up financing something that could be harmful for the environment abroad. and this is an issue that lead us. we'll have to discuss at a summit. certainly some big ticket items on the agenda database, big mouth speaking to us from cornwall at the g 7 summit. thanks 1000 people in northern ethiopia. according to a new report. the u. n. lead analysis describes catastrophic food shortages in tea, grind rage and devastated by fighting between government forces and rebels. it was an additional $2000000.00 people could quickly dives salvation without urgent action mode. counting has wrapped up and perused presidential election,

but socrates haven't declared when i say the race between left is pedro castillo and conservative kind of co city. maureen is too close to call. good morning, claim there was voting and they were voting irregularities, found independent observers dispute that claim work. german finance minister on a show has reportedly paid 2000000 euros to get information on suspect catch soldiers. the news magazine dash beagle says his ministry for data on several 1000 germans with real estate interests in divide information could expose significant tax cons. members of germany's green grains have opened their 3 day party conference. they am to formally endorse adelina babel because they're candidate for chance that are in september national elections. this comes after a recent poll showed a drop in popularity for the environmentalist party. the greens had made major games after they're both nomination in april,

about several blunders by some members have sent the party back in its quest to provide a successor to the outgoing conservative counselor michael. earlier we spoke to our chief political editor, michelle, a chris now who was at the party conference of the grange here in berlin. we also how about her about the reason behind the drop in the grains popularity? well, that was a couple of london were to blame that on the green side, if you just a couple of weeks ago, it was green's rising and rising in some polls and tossed angela maxwell's consent to cdc's you, doc, because they hadn't noticed in fighting. now that was where some mine, i'd say small scandals about undeclared christmas bonuses and also another bab off the top candidates who will be elected here on saturday and being cool town not being tight enough when it comes to her cd. those seem to be pretty much begin is mistakes,

but of course raises question is this policy is this woman is fit to become chancellor? and that's what the party is grappling with at this very moment in time as they sit down. that's kind of physical meeting with. and just in the 200 people here in the room. a 2nd now and after a year, long delay because of the and then make the postpone that you wrote 2020 is finally kicking off a tournament out tonight in rome with italy taking on turkey kick off is less than 3 hours away for the 1st time in its history, the event will be taking place across europe. despite the pandemic, all 11 host cities have been cleared to have fans in the stadiums of those without a ticket host. cities have set up fans zones where people can watch the games on giant screens. lima attack you from dw sport joins us now from one of those fans and at rome's piazza. del paulo,

the people square element is not long to go there. now, before kickoff, you're right in the heart of the city. what's the atmosphere like the year 2020 atmosphere is everywhere and know where it's a very strange paradox. you could be walking the streets of rome and not even realize that the printer to one of the biggest football tournaments in the world is about to kick off in a few hours time. we talk very little flags hanging from roof tops from home, from balconies. then of course, on the other hand, you have transfers as these and i have to show them to you. you have to see that this year, for example, is one or for 3 public screenings organized by you, a 5 and up to 1010 will be expected to be here. of course they have to follow are very, very strict guidelines. they have to wear math and keep

a distance. and what's interesting is that a lot of the things that we spoke to were not even aware if public screenings are happening at all. and that's because i initially had said that due to the cold due to corporate 19, they would not hold these sort of event. so a lot of local found out yesterday only a few days ahead of time and also through what of but going back to you a question about the atmosphere, the football atmosphere, italian standards, i would say it's quite mellow, but perhaps maybe, you know, at the turn them in picks up and they thought winning games as i do believe that the italian football spirit will slowly come back of you quite surprising to hear that about the dampen spirit. no doubt, of course, the career of ours has a lot to big role to play in bad. have fans in rome, expressed any concerns. it's a mixed bag. rebecca. i mean, it depends who you talk to. you get

a bazillion different and so i'm on the one hand of course being able to hold a tournament like this of this magnitude. the open i'm talking about the opening event does bring that attends of normal c for a lot of locals. but on the other hand, and of course you also have the economic, who was that also, you know, inject money into the economy. but on the other hand, it's a risky business. we should not forget that italy was the center in europe of the crone of i was fin demik and i spoke to a lot of low codes and many here often and bad events like this could perhaps leads to touch of 19 cases. well we hope not thing is cross there. now we're really running out of time. but just looking ahead to the mass itself can home country italy be confident of a wind tonight? they have momentum, they unbeaten in $27.00 games. i'll roll this tournament will be a big test, but they do have a beautiful home advantage while i pick them in the tipping,

so i think it's cross, they're talking in runs the day of the sport. thank you. and i'll be your opinion and the us discussed further sanctions against the government of barrows. and you documentary looks at the peaceful resistance to alexander lucretia because regime the film will premier this evening of the building film festival in the presence of exiled opposite later set on a chicken sky. i am in focuses on the lives of 3 actors and is called simply courage teams of p for protest. and taylor last summer caught in the documentary courage. today they looked like images from another era. the film follows 3 actors, turned protesters, danny's pavel, and marina. last summer, there were full of hope for change. now all 3 lives, next time, they decided to leave barrows because it was not possible to walk and to live in

this air fear feeling. and they decided to moved to key if and right now, all of them are in exile and give up to their participation in band demonstrations against the russian president, alexander lucas shinkel. both pavel and daniel were arrested and detained for 15 days at a prison in minutes. the prison plays a central role in courage. he is where the families gather to find out the fate of the loved ones, arrested or disappeared by the regime. as soon as they were released, dan is impassable, less the country. 2 marina was the last to go the ah, even before the recent crack down, the actors were banned from performing after staging place critical of dictatorship

. 6 making art inside better seems impossible at the moment. apollo young beliefs, his country needs artist, now more than never to try to help people to or can their fear or can their trauma really depression trauma and to say, please not lose hope the watching data will you need before we go. here's a quick reminder of our top story. well, ladies have kicked off the j 7 summer in coal. will england? i think the pandemic and climate change are expected to be the main topics of the 3 day meeting. g 7 has already pledged to provide 1000000000 doses of cobit 19 back st and poor countries move aims to address criticism. a wealthy nation has secured the vast majority of doses for their own collections. headline face our stay

phase, we will bring you the business news for a short break, stating that we're back at the top of the hour time. rebecca versus thanks for watching the news. the news we don't want to see them, but they are their street. our our peer thing you realize to be that we're new global 3000 series.
