ideas, it's on its way to bring you more concert. how do we make a reader? how can we protect habits? what to do with them all our ways? we can make a difference by choosing smartness solutions over st said in our way, the global ideas, environmental theories in 3000 on d, w online. mm. ah, this is the w news, and these are our top stories. german chancellor anglo merkel has been visiting villages devastated by severe flooding. at least 156 people have died. since she is horrified by the real devastation and germany must do more to tackle climate change . she met with survivors and emergency workers and has promised government age

journalists, human rights activists, and politicians are being targeted by several governments that's using a spyware called pegasus. that's according to an international group of media outlets. around 50000 phone numbers may have been target says these really company behind the software denies any wrong doing party go as an injury and are celebrating so called freedom day. night clubs have reopened their doors the 1st time in 17 months. almost all current virus restrictions have been lifted despite a search in cases scientist, a warning of a further rise and infections and new virus areas. this is the of the news from berlin. you can find much more on our website, d, w dot com, the oh,

with the welcome to global 3000. this week we find out how young people in uganda turning their dreams into reality. we learn about a potential solution for global food waste. and we need to help us documenting the effects of global warming in this, the hell moves in a 3rd of our planet is made up of deserts and dry lands, and that percentage is rising every year. an additional 70000 square kilometers the fertile land turns to desert. the main causes a deforestation, overgrazing and the over use of water resistance,

all of which deplete the soil of essential minerals with temperatures set to rise days of the coming decade. the rate of does that if occasion is likely to speed up considerably more to scarcity is already a problem for 1000000000 people. most of them in africa. the world's risk index says the situation is particularly precarious in the health region. late chad and west central africans. people here has lived from fishing and farming for thousands of years. it appears that at 1st glance, but one of the world's biggest environmental catastrophes is unfolding here. 20 years ago, the lake surfaced shrank by 90 percent. and now climate change has brought extreme, whether that's destroying the local farmers, livelihoods photographer andy, spiral it's working on a photo project that documents the effect of climate change in the entire. so how

spiral was the last reporter in the region before the outbreak of the corona, virus pandemic? back home in germany, africa, the problem seemed far away. still, they have a direct impact on europe. mm. bizarrely, 80000000 people live in this a hell region. their livelihoods will be taken away in the coming years from decade . the people have to go somewhere and go, they will mentioned just a matter of where we're in. online chat, experienced 1st hand, how the climate catastrophe and lead to conflicts, wars, terrorism and anarchy. extreme weather is getting worse, harvests are failing, and large parts of lake chad can no longer be traversed because nature can no longer provide for the people. here, there are intense fights over the remaining resources. entire villages have been burned down. the

2 villages that ended up in war with each other and it was clearly about resources . and so it was but access to water, access to food and fishing rights conflict of the weapons they use whereas archaic, the landscape spears bows and arrows. thousands of people die on lake chad each year due to the regional conflicts that have been brought the region. they could not conflict, not interesting. and the spiral has photographed and syria, afghanistan, and in the balkans issues with a wide angle lens which means he has to get close up to people inspires work isn't limited to farmers. he also photographs warlords islamic extremists, women who have been raped. he understands the interplay between hunger, war and religious extremism, from seeing them 1st hand, including only chance poker unfastened around drives around the lake at night and

recruits young man and afford the offer of $500.00 in it. a 47 is very enticing to someone who is livelihood is disappearing and actually going to leave school luggage from the car for fire also went to nigeria, where the conflict between the nomads and the farmers. it's been escalating for years. it's now one of the bloodiest civil wars in the world for a week. inspire a company, muslim fulani no matter if they drove their cattle, heard the southward during the dry season, but dwindling passengers cars. the situation to explode, went for money, hurts grazed on farming land. the farmers shot the cattle, the nomads burned down the farmer's villages in retaliation. both believe there in the right and the government is unable to resolve the conflict with spit of the under the laser. we heard the other side of the story, don't we went to the christian farmers and listen to their version of what happened on this one village called barry was completely destroyed by the full army people. dozens of people were massacre. people were to copper tases and they took the heads

with them. it was very brutal. ah, in moly, internal conflicts led to a military coup. truth marched through the streets of the capital bomb, and force president peter and prime minister to resign. the, not even the deployment of the german military, which had been in the country for 7 years, could prevent the total collapse on the government in march and anti spyware, it was a multi area that was once popular with tourists. today the region is isolated, and millions of civilians suffer violence. there are caliphs and ethnic militias, but no government. molly hasn't been safe for quite some time. the me to communion is for dawn. we went to visit there with the prime

minister, and there was an armed unit, a kilometer long on some things to 100 vehicles just so we could visit the village and says a lot about the security. there was me more than 2000000 people from the lake chad region have fled due to hunger, war and extremism. and these fires provocative pictures, show the impact this has on people and how violence leads to trauma and devastation . or they have no choice but to flee and they won't be me. hunger, it's on the rise all over the wells. now effects around 820000000 people. and yet some 1300000000 tons of food are wasted every year in developing countries. this is often down to a lack of infrastructure as a result on average $6.00 to $11.00 kilos of food, a wasted this way per person per year in industrial nations that figure is 10 times

greater retailers and consumers often tossed out food just because it no longer appears fresh, extending the shelf life is produced, could improve the situation. food vegetables rotting in fields or during transportation to consumers. according to the un food and agricultural organization, or f, a o. some 14 percent of food is lost after harvesting. and before it reaches the market retailer, if you go to a particular country or particular, you are likely to see varying levels of food losses. and these, depending on the situation, would go up even to 50 percent. if you're talking about, let's say fruits and vegetables, for example, if the former does not find the market for that particular food product in a timely basis. now this is a huge amount of food. and if you,

you convert it into monetary quantities. this is a lot and if you, you can read it as well into a loss to the environment or the environmental impact that is close. so huge when that happens, water, pesticides, and resources used for transportation or all waste as some 7 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to food loss and waste. the chief causes include problems of transportation and refrigeration. the power from harvest a kitchen table is a race against time. a california based company appeal sciences might be able to help founder james rogers and his team have developed a liquid that could extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables. appeal is

a little exactly like it sounds peel that we apply to the surface of fresh produce . you can't see it, you can't, you can't do it. but it slows down the factors because the fruit to age help, even without refrigeration appeal as a liquid coating that dries into a kind of edible skin. the coating helps to produce last up to 4 times as long that buys time, time to transport, the produce to storage and to eat it before it spoils. appeal is based on liquids and other natural compounds found in fruits and vegetables. there, extracted and blended into a taylor made solution by combining them in the rate ratios when they dry a dry into an arrangement that allows us to control the factors that cause fruit to age,

which are basically water going out and oxygen going here. so same materials were just teaching them a new trick by finding the right formula to apply to different kinds of praise, in order to give them the same kind of protection that you'd have on women. on a cucumber or on a dutch wholesaler nature's prize cell from 120000 tons of fruits and vegetables a year. the import from 59 countries, especially latin america. in rotterdam, the importance produced continues to ripen before it's sorted, packed, and shipped to the retailer spoilage waste as a common problem in the industry. but the company hopes to minimize these losses in the future. the consumer throws food away, they actually bought it and they don't use it. and that costs money. so in the chain, if we don't throw it away, you don't spend that money wrongly with a b a. we can reduce weight was 50 percent at the retail level. food that used to

land in the trash can now be sold every day. natures pride treat 6 tons of cars with appeal before sending them to supermarket shelves across europe. the main customers are in scandinavia, germany, and the netherlands. natures, prizes the 1st company in europe to use appeal. they're planning to start treating other kinds of fruits and vegetables soon as they're coming by air, by using a view, we might give them the possibility to go by boat. and that is of course, the same as you suggested. so there's lots of weapons so far, the new technology is mainly being used by large companies. smaller ones can't afford it. but a few says it's planning to change that with a new business model in which retail chains and supermarkets pay smaller producers and farmers to install the necessary setup. in return,

they receive longer lasting produce farmers in places that haven't had access to national international markets could also benefit and so the opportunity is to be able to, to use appeal to reduce the transport taishan costs and increase the quality. so it's not a, it's a way. ready for a some, a small producer to grow something that's intrinsically valuable, to collect some of that. extending the shelf life of projects will help. but it won't end the problem of food lawson waste for that transportation and refrigeration systems will also need to be improved and expanded and consumers will have to stop throwing food away and start only by me. what they'll actually ease this week in global ideas. we look at employment opportunities, how can jobs be created for young people, while at the same time protecting our planets and its resources?

just outside the uganda and capital come parlor are reported. julius mcgann visited a learning hub, which encourages young people to turn that creative visions into reality. our house collapse on the deputy when mother died from the intervention suffered. so i tend to my pin full pulse into motivation. i never knew that what i'm doing would ton this big to me and to the environment. i fought and now i thought discriminated because of my often falling seed from malaria. i am now part of the solution in my country. please people, each with a vision. don't other baker produces so with a sense that we pulse mosquitoes according to the un, every 2 minutes, a child under the age of 5 dies of malaria. even if i'm not kidding all

the kids that are suffering right now. i am actually saving the ones that i can. john, mary, consumer is founder and director of between business up cycle africa, which builds houses, other recycled plastic bottles. so we are transforming that with crisis in africa into implement opportunities for monument as a group of people. so we constructing affordable homes, cars in the anela vega, graduates of the social innovation academy, oh, senior for souls. it's located in the town of p, about 30 kilometers south of uganda capital component here, young people, including orphans, and st. kids learn how to develop their ideas into successful businesses due to the cause of 19 pandemic. and the few students are currently able to attend classes on campus. it is not giving them information like a picture. this is what you need to do or does is the right answer,

but helping them to discover their own answers to understand. what are the next steps, what the gold's, how can they achieve what they want to achieve. given social entrepreneurs, enzymes, unfounded. c, 920144 people who want to build their own career path. the academy is financed by their nations. it's been over 10 years since i bought mit joan and john mary. well volunteering in an orphanage. they've known each other a long time. that one quickly realize that a lot of young people in uganda has no formal work. the country has one of the youngest, as far as the growing population in africa. especially if you're going to, people are not prepared to, to work together to present themselves, to ask critical questions to find down solutions own answers. and we'll learning that in seen. and that's why often not everybody will become an end up or not, but many of what's called as, as well that i've been seen. i have found jobs when,

if the solutions lead to compiler with plastic waste is a huge problem. $350000.00 tons of trash accumulates in the ugandan capital every year. and only half of it is disposed of much of the plastic lens of this trash them. recycling isn't common here. gen mary consumer pays young fresh connected together bottles that he can then use to build houses every time my company. and i do like give some money to other people to do, for example, it's likely all keeping investments can it gives me a lot of hope that even the future in addition will it host the planet that we, we have done or we have predicted from plastic with s is pressed into the plastic bottles to make bring many women words folks having this business,

giving them the chance to end their own money lab long since our wages were raised recently, of course need for now school fees. now i can pay my daughter's university tuition and give her the opportunity to graduate. the consumer says the houses are cool inside even on hot days. his business has already constructed more than 100 buildings. using over 3000000 plastic bustles in the process. due to the corona virus pandemic commission have slower, but there is funding coming in from abroad. we are revising different solutions on the way we can be able to see wave of the company. however, we also good some people who came around to support us. for example, we go with some funding from i care and men that decided to support us in, especially in

a lot of coffee denine to this woman supplies joan l. baker with lemon grass. a key ingredient in his keeping some boss sign these days for free before the curve at 900 crisis. he sold his head to tourists and hotels for a higher price, so she could keep the price down for locals. now that there are hardly any tourists, she's expanded her online business. it helps that the so effectiveness has been scientific. he verified the wireless names in the past. yeah. people often got sick with malaria, especially children. but since we've been using the, so it's been a while since anyone here has had malaria and the refugees settlement nike valley in west. and you can provide shelter for more than 100000 people who fled to violence in neighboring countries, such as south done. many people have lived here for years, including victim

a fee good. together with teens eyeball and he brought his c no model to nike. valley funding work tends to be even harder for refugees than for young uganda. a few victims chinese have already been awarded prize money at music festival in 1900. consider that lot of young people with no money and skills. people who don't have no more chances to go to school as in those are no open communities . we come through this and you cannot only depend on ads, but they can also do something. goes to live in the also been said because of 19 as senior branch in south africa had to be put on hold. what

nevertheless, atkins, i bon remains convinced that senior will say a toss in more success stories like those of john mary consumer and joan baker. i have a vision to make my country it bit up please. i have a vision to make africa instead of running away from it to make it a better place. if my, when mother happens to see me now, i know it will be proud of me. yes. stick to your own agreements. the words simple. the concern is. the agreements are, of course, those set on climate change in paris in 2015. the fridays to future protests have turned into a worldwide movement of people young and old, calling for governments and individuals to get a handle on global warming. his, they say shared responsibility to act. something one community in northern finland

has taken to heart this is northern thin land, the baltic coast. after hitting the sauna, nothing beats a quick dip in the cold river. me just a very refreshing. when you hear in the water, you really feel like a part of nature. a lot of it is the under the on say say that we live right in the middle of nature. set them aside. we can enjoy the water pick berries and go hunting for. yeah. it's important for us that we can grow our own food here and that we have the forest and access to nature in general. turns name is spelt high just as simple and straightforward as the town itself. a few roads to supermarkets and just

under $10000.00 inhabitants is considered one of europe's greenest communities. the town has managed to reduce it, c o, 2 emissions by 80 percent. i think see if they can be interest that climate change is not on the way it's already. yeah. and we've understood that it's not just the big players that have to make the change mind we have to be a part of the change as well by the possible made the key to the success of be creating incentives that everybody does their part in finland daycares and schools children are taught how to protect the climate. thank you, left. it all began with a 5050 project. we tried it out in 3 schools. the children monitor the water and electricity use and get paid half of what they've saved the school and those utilities. then they can buy something with the money. the project was so

successful that it was expanded to all the schools in daycare centers in the in the past 10 years, residents and he have reduce their energy consumption by half of the children, abuse the money save to buy toys plants, even a pool table that those should come out, those are carrot like it. go. be ready now. me the town of the, surrounded by unspoken nature, as well as some of europe's largest p fox. for centuries, peace was burned here as a source of energy, but they're also vast reservoirs of c o. 2, protecting them keeps that c o 2 as the atmosphere. this is minute. hold call is from e. he bought large trucks of the nearby people and made them protected areas. i

know more than we can only change if every person and every family does their part, whatever they can. doing large and small things is what we need to help fight climate change. the see the civil war. some of scandinavia is told us wind turbines are located in the non renewable energy heating or the police. the air for example, has been banned. e relies on its own wind and water and produces 10 times more green energy than the time needs an ear and 4000000 euros a year selling its leftover electricity. we've had many discussions about wind energy, about the noise, for example, in the light on the countryside and how wind turbines disrupt community. life was still up there just to push out. the 60 new wind turbines are being planned for construction around the outer edge of a primeval forest. not one tree has been here in the last 100 years. listen a lot and you won't be able to conceal the wind turbines. the 300 meters high and

set up only a few 100 meters from this spot. so all you have to worry about. it's a common goal to protect nature and e. i say we need the wind power, but we also need to protect the surrounding. and so the mailman, it's like a puzzle. in the end we have to put all of the pieces together to find the best compromise about how to protecting the climate is indeed a massive puzzle. what impact can a little town have been such a global problem? the big one according to the people of for one thing they can set a good example mark or lower corner finland just might work for the rest of the world. to me. that's all from level 3000 and this week. thanks for watching. do you have any comments or feedback do right to us global 3000 at g, w dot com, the

the news the news, the news the day and play next episode. the have long been the favorite series. make

the trip something to your brain tomorrow today on dw politics for an interview with monica federal commission that the culture and the media have a c handle. the challenges posed by the time demick is most, i've always had to fight for that. the creative sector would also get attention focused on the how does she evaluate her 2nd term in office? i'm very passionate about what i do. aren't 21. in 16 dw, ah, was i think everything jenny says i'm making so much different culture between here and they're telling you for everything.

ah, i think it was worth it for me to come to germany shop and got my license to work as this instructor. you know, now i teach children who don't just went as far as what's your story take part serious on info migrant. ah ah, how do people get enough vitamins to stay healthy if they live in areas where little grows? this more on dw science show. also coming up power plants able to grow and outer speed and why it can be hard to sleep when following a tv series will number 2 tomorrow today,

ah, the people with sleeping disorders can only dream about getting a good night's rest. many things can ramos, of sleep worrying and stress or getting work done or excited. watching a, her film can cause sleep as well. so can a tv series with cliff hanger, endings, suspense tension pushed to the limit. and then right in the middle, the,

the a classic cliffhanger ending design just suck viewers in to watch. the next episode often deployed by streaming platforms like netflix, young people are particularly susceptible lunch and they stay up late watching and tie the next day. late night watching could impact sleep and all kinds of ways at the university of freeburg and switzerland. media, academic and dominique events is carrying out research. she's about to conduct an experiment to analyze. now, cliffhanger endings affect our sleep. not only made a cause less sleep, but also alter how we sleep. it's a relatively new field. emotions play a key role in dramas, but there's been little research into how they impact sleep quality. dominique village places a sensor on each person's finger to track their pulse. it's not easy to

sleep with a racing heart. the subjects also undergo a saliva test. does mastic? what's like this measurement? it shows how stresses be launched by the life of reveals the level of cortisol in the body that causes women that's released to stress like so. we want to compare the levels at the beginning with the end after the group is finished watching the phones area, the highest of info, at least from that when we had some offering math. the same procedure is repeated with a 2nd group of test subjects that has asked a colleague to monitor them. so there's one small but key difference in the test that the 2 groups will undergo as good as psycho, if you look at, by the degree, if you say, i'm sure we'll watch the same series but with different tending one. see a common doing while the others have a cliff hanger with

a lot of hispanics. when i see the aim is to see if the group or the cliffhanger ending is more agitated afterward 6 to stick up the voice interval. we gandy it. so lights often let the cameras roll me seems pretty casual we lacked like a whole movie. but the subjects are being watched closely here in the control room . the researchers can monitor how they're responding in real time. they're watching several episodes of orphan black, a science fiction thriller. so the group watching without the cliffhanger ending the clip will finish slightly earlier on a relaxed note. but the other way to 10 spills up full of suspense with a sudden unresolved ending. the after 3 hours of watching,

it's back to reality. the test subjects are then asked to fill out a questionnaire on how they're feeling. they also submit another sample of saliva. the other group does the same to provide a comparison. dominique fields in her team have now carried out the same experiment on more than a 100 test subjects. the results are crystal clear. those who saw the cliffhanger ending had a much higher pulse at the doors. they also had increased levels of cortisol. while the group that saw con, ending the cortisol levels, went down as the evening progressed. that planning on that short seeing and start and ending how to pick empower, powerfully affecting the level of physical and mental agitation stock briefly. is there any way to mitigate that effect?

the researcher has a very simple tip. i start to finish on a cliff. hang on, let me start the next time and watch it for another 5 or 10 minutes. wait for a relatively calm moment while you relax. and then switch over the weekend was fine side, look it up. okay, so it's also much easier to do than one, it's tense and exciting to upsize the us in the moment. so we don't have to ditch netflix to get a good night sleep. but a more intelligent approach could help at times and don't stay up all night watching time for a quick and then move on. no cliffhangers here or next report revolves around nutrition, carbohydrates, or among the nutrients that we need. they are found in many types of food like bread or fruit and vegetables. a protein has many tasks in the body. it helps fight infection for one proteins are

found in fish and meat, but also in brain and not fence from things like butter and oil. provide energy and vitamins are vital for metabolism. but what happens when the best vitamin sources are available, ah, extreme conditions like those opposed composed many challenges for human life. so one victim and containing plants count great. how can anyone suffice a long time? for today's researches spectrum in sources need to be brought in by and that's how scientists get by during months long distance and on talk to come this means fruits and vegetables can be available every day.

a 100 years ago. american ethnic just the yeah. most stephan son had a different approach. during his extended trip to the architect, he took his keys from the indigenous in you. it eating only means to be healthy. experts will long baffled by how the populations didn't suffer from victim in deficiencies. despite the lack of variation and that diet, why would they getting that dependency without fruit or vegetables? the answer was surprisingly simple. the me to feels whales, fish, and render contains all the victims necessary, including system and see none of the nutrients will last because the in you never cook them meet. they traditionally eat rules the me to that to be more palatable when it's fresh before it's have time to freeze. the traditional nomadic peoples in the distance of africa rarely eat meat. that comes

both hold our goods and the key to the survival central eat. so whether the bed winds and twat, rex get pittman's, the answer is straightforward. at 1st. during the stops, you know, i seized where fruit and vegetables are plentiful. the new method also proposed supplies for the next block of that journey. often that traditional mil porridge only has crush date, plotted and dates contain no m c. that means that during their travels across the desert, the nomad hydrates but no victim in see. so all they have is the minimal amounts of victim and seed that bodies can store semester good. i did. it was because they never traveled, stretches longer than 2 weeks before reaching the next day basis. constantly on the

moon. interestingly, they only keep male camels, it's a different story with come to her just to keep mixed like him and can. yeah. they can travel for weeks at a time, thanks to the female camels. these milk as the primary source of nourishment they stay healthy because come milk is britain victim and see under for right, you have the nutrients and so you see millennia people have managed to live in some of the most didn't hospital regions. life may have been tough, but amazingly victim and deficiencies have not been a major obstacle. the the crew of the international space station also live in pretty extreme circumstances, but their food is

a bit more varied than in the arctic. along with the ever popular pizza, astronauts can also look forward to home grown vegetables. reno chowdhury from india had a question about that and how our plan is able to ro, in outer space me down on earth. they use gravity to fix that, to the ground where they can access water and nutrients. plants director leaves and flowers towards to like things to grow and blossom. they also need air. for photo synthesis. any plants in outer space would die from cosmic radiation, and from being flash frozen at $270.00 degrees below 0. like humans plans to need a protected environment. the international space station does have heat light and

air, but no gravity, meaning liquids behave differently, then back home on earth. that's why researchers have developed plans, pillows fitted with growth media, as well as a week to secure the seeds in place and provide them with water. the vegetable production system is the living heart of the mini on board. greenhouse g, as in formerly known, was installed of the i s s in 2014. initially with 6 romaine lettuce, seed pillows, plants were last due to water stress. one failed to germinate, but a month later the crew was able to harvest 3 magnificent specimens. in december of 2015, the crew dined out for the 1st time on their very own home grown space salad. a welcome break from the usual priest drive fer researchers have spent for decades

looking into why plants grow in 0 gravity. what they found out was that plants can actually develop without gravity, by taking their bearings from the light. new experiments are being devised to determine what like conditions they thrive, and best tests have also shown like jeans are express differently in 0 gravity, especially those involved in shell was the researches geared towards long term missions headed deeper into space that will largely have to survive without being resupplied from earth. in 2016 nasa astronaut scott kelly picked and carefully assembled the 1st flowers in outer space. unions were selected as a practice run for other class that needed longer time to flour. in fruit like tomatoes, there's any petals have a bitter taste but certainly boosted the crews morale. yes, another benefit of gardening and space. decades to come,

i will see astronauts flying too and perhaps even colonizing the moon and is and when they reach far from mars, they'll definitely meet automated houses to get their daily portion of fresh fruits and veggies. ah, what is read? why do you have a science question you'd like us to answer as a video test voicemail. we feature it on the show. you'll get a little surprise from us as a thank you. i just use you can find more fascinating stories from the world of science on our website and on twitter i, it's possible to simulate 0 g in an air ground during a parabolic flight. a plane climbs at an angle of 50 degrees before going over into

a di for some 22 seconds those inside the plane experience what 0 gravity feels like a reporter connor dylan went on board the flying laboratory. and so the question of whether there was more joy in my heart or fear and my heart today, i would have to say that yes, there was plenty of joy. i was really, really excited for this flight. so there were definitely a couple of things that i had to think about when i was up there in the 0 gee aircraft. one of them was focusing on the right parts of the aircraft to help me feel less air sick or have less motion sickness. i use,

i really wanted to go around and see as many of these experiments as possible as they were being done as a really rare opportunity to basically be able to step inside a laboratory. and here you had 8 different experiments happening all at the same time. you were in effectively 8 different labs that was pretty amazing the use .

so would i want to do this again, going inside a 0 g aircraft? i'm surprised to say that i think my answer is no. at least standing here right now . of it is really, really surprisingly hard on your body and sure i loved doing flips and twists and turns and feeling the effects of 0. gee, it is really, really fun. but it's also extremely exhausting. it makes you feel sick to your stomach. some lucky people don't have that, i had it very strongly. so i would stand here and say i had a wonderful time with the european space agency today. and i don't ever need to do it again. ready perhaps next time a reporter might prefer to join scientists, working to save trees. here in brazil, atlantic forest and all over the world attempts are being made to rescue endangered

indigenous species. ah. ready our next report goes to south eastern germany, where conservationists start trying to save a species of tree that goes back 150000000 years. ah, this you tree in the very and forest national park is one of the last of its kind, forestry scientists mocking shots and his colleagues are doing their best to take care of the trees. they used to grow abundantly here, but now they are endangered. in the middle ages, you would was much sought after for building weapons due to deforestation. the trees eventually became scarce. there are currently only $150.00 you trees in the park. each one was recently documented. i've had them years this you tree behind me is probably several central, so we're always delighted to find these grand ancient trees full for their age is

a challenge because the new doesn't, labs are all quite old. we're in dire need of young new saplings that can multiply and the future from that's why we must do all we can to help the i use now going ahead and in some areas of the park, martin shows and his team can swing into action. the goal is that more evergreen youth will grow here. that requires naturally occurring trees that are both young and healthy. the problem is that saplings are a popular food source for deer. rabbits also love to nibble on young plants to protect them close and his team put up fences around the use which will help give them a chance to propagate. are kept within the enclosure to replace the only trees, which like all living things will eventually die. others are related but high. that means we dig up the saplings and replant them 100 by 100 or 300 meters away. this

increases their valuation to a number capable of survival. it's again, it's unclear at the saplings grown here are healthy and strong enough since few mother trees remain. what's your excess carbon and nitrogen with seedlings? the genome of the use have been significantly weekend. but genetic researchers are on the case. the more uniform the genome, the less adaptable the saplings are, especially now since climate change has altered the conditions in which they grow. to increase the likelihood that the remaining trees will develop resilient seeds, martin sholtes and his team also use some unusual methods. use can thrive in the shade, but they're more likely to flourish in sunlight. for that, surrounding trees must be cut down. the i market shows that as a result,

the mother trees will be able to bear healthier for targeted harvesting, could help their see grow into young trees. revitalizing the use in the bavarian national park is challenging the saving, critically endangered animal species from extinction is also challenging work. recently scientists and conservationists managed to create embryos of northern white rhinos using the firms in for of deceased males. time will fail whether the bio rescue project may succeed. we'll be following that. the next project is not about rhinos, but about trying to bring a breed back from extinction. or a very similar one, at least with the help of ancient dna. this the darwin since he was born on march 24th 2020 high hopes had been pinned on miss coff with

his symbolic name. young cow mark's giant step and the effort to breed back all rocks which have been extinct. for centuries. the scientists call their mission to create an aux like cow, the hour and project cesspool, blame must be harm. it's a problem that we have is that the all rocks have largely vanished genetically. buffington is just b. as i know, what we can do is take its domesticated descendants domestically, handled and then cross them with one another in a targeted way to create a breed of capital. as similar as possible to the or at least not calmed. these are some of the animals with inspire hope among the scientists, the impressive bulls at law, sharpie and central germany lodge cows in a nearby forest. and a mixed heard on a meadow near the river. ryan. each of them possessed his qualities, once borne by the original author rocks. at the thought of, for 9 am, a genome of the british rocks has been sequenced and compared with those of modern

cattle breeds on in what you'd call the top 10 was a read from spain called the question. it's important maybe a bit on the small side to play. then we have another impressive read the genie now largest read of capital because it's billed is very similar to that of iraq and the horns have the right shape up. we know the material to work with is i'm going to, i'm convinced that good about and you can you change the color? we can change the color. then we have the marina castle, another from italy, and finally the what to see cattle. this breed has the largest horns in the world, but we need them in our breed back project in precise doses in order to increase the size of our crossbred animals. all this way to backward animals will resemble the or rapidly even more than ox and of the dash doc, or the or oxes habitat, was closely connected to human settlements with thousands of years by the ice age. the ox for repairing and case came, hunted for food, and finally the animal was domesticated. it became extinct in the middle of the

17th century. tony the reconstruction of all wrong drinking in one reveals one of the main reasons why the all russians no longer living wild animal in europe today . it was already being hunted in the neolithic period, horns in particular worth the paper trophy and believe the prophy in violence. not something have consequences. the rocks had retreated in the middle ages migrating from west to east. if we look at the final 150 years of the history of the rocks in their animals still existed in modern day. poland but had already disappeared in germany last, the goals were shot in 1621. the last cow guy and probably of natural causes in 1627 will. and if my troops told us on this day or ox remains are still found along the rhine. molecular, biological experiments have shown the balls achieved the height of up to one meter

centimeters at the shoulder and weight as much as one and a half comes the overall shape. the environment, like few other joint habits was, this may 1 day, again, be true of its descendants. if the scientists are lost by the hour and project has produced, even more calls to the end of march 2020, these creatures own offspring generation f 3 could decide the success or failure of the breed back project. i'm going to 5th and if i can, maybe with the f 3 generation, we have animals and 2 or 3 years that we can say are very, very close to it. and that would then be a select group that could last for several generations until it is stabilized to such an extent that we can assume the offspring would look like the original orange . we're talking about the timeframe of chain years, which is fair. not too hopeful. we may be able to provide the extra link lasting results live and keep missing life for life and can the true or ox of your have

been lost forever. but chances for breathing a modern day identical looking or rocks like cow looking very good indeed. ah, that's all for today. we'll be back next week with another exciting edition of tomorrow today. until then by by the news. the news, the news
