this holiday destinations drowning in plastic weiss, we really cool at the causes every year of a 1000000 tons of plastic with the other way. after all, the employment isn't to recyclable. make up your own mind. d. w. made for mines. ah . this is focus on europe. i'm lar babel lola, welcome to the show. solidarity with ukraine is strong in europe and beyond. but in

russia, the picture looks very different. that's partly due to the news that's consumed by the people living there. the television and social media accounts to spread the president putin's propaganda and miss information. and it appears to be working. survey by an independent, russian polling group, shows that more than 75 percent of people there support the war. well not long ago, a large majority of russians also supported him latvian singer, entirely useless for years. he entertained millions on russian t v. he was a celebrated star with a huge fan base. but when putting invaded ukraine in tar street, a line in the sand, he became a critical of the kremlin. and many of his russian fans have turned on him. but in his homeland of latvia, in charge is largely celebrated for his dance against putin. solidarity with ukraine is especially strong there, and so too is the fear of their powerful neighbour.

oh, in tosh bacillus performed on rushes. celebrity circuits even playing the kremlin for a show scene on the state. ron channels, the latvian pop singer was a star, russia a for years he went on concert tours across the vast country, singing in russian culture and people and celebrated them in his performance is good to speech this neil is that cisco missile guy, i'm sorry, what we'll do to do, i still can't quite believe it's all over. this was what i was due to still got the

actual goal isn't that i might not go back there for the next 50 years, nickel and i won't have any concerts there. recently, the i got the sports a pickle car read, but most of the things in mind space the swiss, i hope my russian fans don't take it personally. but as long as putin's regime is in power, but i'm not coming with dish, i'm a come out of commercial walker. $40.00 the interior was collaborating with us was about the silliest concerts aren't in plenty of money. even after rushes annexation of crimea in violation of international law. this performance was on the biggest network channel one moshe. compartment is in. lots of people are blaming me, whining. i know i know i'm guilty of but i really loved it, not this on my buttock. i loved to be concert halls, lila's, the big audiences, the millions of people, the opposite, corky ob ballston. but then came the war and

a change of heart for the 44 year old to pop star. we talked with him in a studio. ah, and tosh bacillus is now recording a song for peace for ukraine. he's taking a stance at long lust as many here in litzy are saying, ah, he started posting information and videos about the war and his social media channels. ah, he wants to confront his wishes, fans with the reality of the invasion to show to death and devastation which they don't see on strictly state controlled russian tv. the image is shocked as fans and many react, loveless products, vc, it's

a huge paradox. glee rocks, the least, the biggest fans who wrote the nicest comments, had turned into the biggest enemies when they've gone crazy. attacking me. god, alex is no. james cub. it isn't without risk for the sooner we filmed on his barn. but he asked us not to show where he lives, because those who consume rush and state media live in their own echo chamber. nearly a quarter of latvians are ethnically, russian. prudence propaganda has reached the baltic republic driving a wedge through the population. on may, 9th, the day mark and victory over nazi germany, tens of thousands lay flowers that soviet memorials enrica. many of them support the war of aggression against ukraine, which russian propaganda has portrayed as a battle against naziism. for solace has experienced

the consequences of this propaganda personally. from the streets of his own hometown is taken abuse from people accusing him of spreading lies about russia. laurel abroad, lamara no bonds come here. they curse at me. but but i say to them build friend ha, it's all fine, i understand you certain each night. don't worry. it's not your fault for thinking that now stout, your victim of propaganda ladies cooper, dormer, though smothered zip booklets propaganda in tosh bacillus wants to change his funds. perspective, what might be hopes, they'll open their eyes to what is happening after the war, we'd like to take his children along to one of his concerts in russia. but only if it's a different russia. without good fields of golds, ukraine's wheat and corn fields are

a vital pillar of the economy. countries in europe and far beyond to rely on exports of the serial grains, but with ports and infrastructure destroyed by russian bombs. a world hunger crisis is looming and ukrainian pharma alexi las ether is in survival mode. his granaries are full, but he can't export their contents. with his finances dwindling and the front line drawing nearer alexi fears his wheat and corn fields will soon become battlefields for alex i. liter. desperation has led to determination determination to survive. the farm he runs in northern ukraine was attacked by russia in the early stages of the war berman. if you look at the silo, as you can see, lots of holes with different shapes and sizes are for some rockets were fired straight into the building. so over direct and dizzy law in the are going to spring,

broaden as the was a fire here as well. that was a bomb reason here own, on her sexual hatred towards the russians of the wilson. there could still be russian rockets inside the silo. alexa does know how many or if they could still explode. the invading forces were just 200 meters from the farm during the attack. he vowed not to surrender his harvest, supplies or fuel reserves for him to made an agreement with the manager. here if the russians entered or we were going to blow up or $200.00 tons of diesel, it was all to per to madison for the last year. ukraine saw a record harvest, there was more than farmers could sell. like many others alex, i was expecting solid prophets. but now the russian attack has damaged his corn. and that's not the only problem. it is, it's not good. we thought we were sitting money because corn is money hit us right

now. it's just, it's not worth anything because we can't transport or export at image exports. we can get by for maybe 3 or 4 more months. that's it, ovens vita ukraine has been struggling to export much of its produce. the port city of odessa is under attack. further east mario pole lies in route know cargo can get out. the romanian port of constantine could be an alternative that poor rail lines will make transporting goods they are challenging. the system was not prepared for the levels of disruption. the war is causing the porch also lacks the capacity to ship out the hundreds of thousands of tons of ukrainian grown, wheat, corn, and sunflower seeds. ukraine farmers are facing more than just export problems. is alexa shows us rockets have rained down on fields everywhere. he can only plant on

3000 tech tiles of his 30000 tech tough was done isn't find the brutal enemy one annihilator. once i finish the mission here and saw them ukraine, me as apple, locals fear for their lice. vitale, lupina runs, are not cultural company off. he and his dad fall worried. it's the last week of the sewing season, but the front is just a kilometer away. that it should run to a good. there were more attacks at 5 am this morning or so. we were worried because the area came under fire, but we have to work. we can't let down our government or our people. we need to feed our families. our armed forces, ukraine, and the whole world, including with, with, if farmers can't grow crops, they won't eat and if they can't expose produce, they are left with no income. but for many, the biggest concern is simply staying alive.

roman is listening for the sounds of shots. there's a constant fear that the enemy might advance. sure. i'm scared like any normal personally. when were you more like that? sure, britain. if these monsters come up, we'll pack our tractors or grab our machine guns and excuse me, that you've been shoot these frequencies, we're going to restore with more russia. italy shows us a video of rockets that landed on his field. they can only be removed after experts have safely deactivated them. already the piles of munitions are building up and nobody knows how many more dangers may be lurking in the site. i mean, it's a worry whenever andre clouds, the feels that the lavoy hello. i can't hear anything up here in my cabin. sure. i have to look outside to see what the others are doing. well, if there's no frantic waving and shouting, everything is fine. if there's a situation or i'll need to get out and run for my life, no jewel,

it's hard to imagine working under these conditions on top of everything else. fuel is running low. they borrow what they can from neighbors, other farmers who have stopped working because of the war. if worst comes to worst, they plan to protect themselves from the bombs and rockets in this purpose built shelter. with his, with it the computer we can at least keep our boys say for a while to is one of the half me doesn't play above our heads and other to keep us warm and drinking water brick my we could survive for a while, but acidic mortal a lot of money, none of them want to flee with over their work for the next harvest continues for ukraine, as well as for export to europe and the world to the world. even if their immediate goal is simply to stay safe for children. while the struggle to survive has also touched this young man's heart. arturo souffle is

a 13 year old from france. he dedicates his time to painting, not only because it feels good, but also because it brings good our tour. it sells his paintings to the homeless. it's an initiative he started many years ago after an encounter with a homeless person, with each painting our tour hopes to make the world a little better. till softly is 13 years old and a budding artist. well starving there was it for now i'm going to use a bit of black. okay. then i'll add other colors that so that there's a good contrast when i paint, i feel calmer. 100 pounds total shoot with ken. but our tool doesn't paint just for the sake of it. nessie, how did you get the idea of the g? when they told i was little late, we were on holiday. yes, i was still in mummies,

tummy and we were still in central pe and arthur. so someone for the 1st time at 212, a pay or son, milo lee from a lo. so someone living in the street? no, not really wrong. i wanted to help the people on the street and i didn't know how. but i saw some artists on the beach and i thought i could do the same missing. so i started painting in the sand and using little stones and they end money to buy them something to live on the boise, their little children breakfast i never knew can remote till has been painted, and to raise funds for homeless people for almost 10 years. you won't be who the whole family is on board, but it can be tough at times. shows the fact that there are some really strong moments. like when we drew with claudio. sergio. oh yes. cloud you have a wonderful homeless person. we often went to find him, he had an artist, so i recall though he was in the street, he had courage and continue to draw him. he did what he wanted to do. i thought

that was really beautiful. this afternoon i chose this saying some of the work for sale, and then i just run gallery because if you get not every one encourages what he's doing with it. okay. so some people think it's too much for me that i should stop want you to say, then i pretend to listen to them. but in my mind, i just say no. i did. yeah. mostly you have fans though, like 8 year old victor who's here with his grandmother. i think what he does is good. i really like his paintings. yes. hello. hello. do you want to do that too? ah, well, i actually prefer sculpture to chill with repeating myself with the

dusk helped her with me. he thinks he could make small works with all the big ones along with out your honest family will use the money raised to buy food. here they're on their way to the city of to way in northern france, where 20 percent of the population lives below the poverty line. a 3rd more than the national average. they're meeting go highly jabrisa, a social worker and family friend, and lou, 2 vehicles, ferpa, a homeless man. oh, man, mister la fella is an alcoholic. he's been homeless for 4 years and he now to situation is challenging, but out she refuses to lose hope. i'm unhappy but mary, of course, i just don't like literally it with you. good. i lost a good friend of mine who was ever the authorities have to be informed of your situation so they can help you. oh, pretty fucking please. who's

a day it won't look good. i don't think they're really interested. lou aren't good. good that count. my mr. le fabula has been living in his car for months. he's filled it with blankets and made a home for himself. are author don't come, sit in my room, 2 of them will room and abdul bring some light to dark situation. oral the movement. if you're the king here, normal. no, i'm not the king of anything more of your life. it, well, you at least should live life to the full fin will. so what does it mean to have our, to you had your side with your a lot of food forms my heart here. it possible. i

think you going to find a way out come on like a little you may have to look, you've taught me a lot. thanks to a few to you may not have changed mr. le ferpa situation, but he has shown him that there is some one out there who believes in him, and who cares about people experiencing homelessness. for marijuana smokers in europe, the netherlands is a big draw along with a cap, a chino. you can also order a joint in many dutch coffee shops. it's a business model that's only half legal, coffee shops get a special license that allows them to sell small amounts of weed. it's not technically legal, but it is tolerated by the authorities. well now the dutch government wants to regulate this legal greys own with an experiment. marijuana groan under state

control. so low images like these have become a stereotype of the netherlands. it's perfectly legal to buy a joint here. if it's for the customers personal use, this coffee shop in greater has been around for 30 years. but now there's going to be a radical change. the shop will no longer have to source it's cannabis from drug dealers . instead, it will be able to buy from a state controlled crop owner and patch thinks it's a good development. this is shown what again, personally, it's cleaner or pesticides are used. oval of the strict cultivation will serve, feel comfortable, it's ecological and sustainable. and to provide legal for them and for the 1st time will be able to do are buying on the books complicated the experiment is taking place in breda and 9 other municipalities. it's been put in

place to combat the fact that the netherlands has become a hub for drugs. partly because of its liberal policies, partly because of its ports, violent, criminal gangs control hard drugs like cocaine. in july 2021 dutch investigative journalist pater devries was murdered after reporting on drug crime authorities, one to at least gain control over the soft drug market. we hope this experiment will put an end to a half baked policy of tolerance. lucky you can buy and sell cannabis in a coffee shop, a vehicle which are not allowed to produce at 70 militia as ha ha, that's led to an illegal market for production. lucy dominated by criminal sort. romania, the criminal. the question now is how the state controlled calibus harvest will get safely to the coffee shops.

transported g will to bowl transport is still a problem with an armored vehicle will bring the hash out. i'm not sure how i'm supposed to feel about that going and got there. you hold. so the experiment is due to ron for 4 years after which the results from the 10 participating municipalities will be evaluated. for centuries, italians have been perfecting the art of pizza, making hand needed dough, a stone oven, and the finest ingredients are required. pizza is a part of italy's national identity, but this tradition is now being challenged by new technology in rome. a pizza vending machine and a front to some restaurant owners in the capital city. but the machines creator says he's bringing a little slice of heaven to the streets of rome. this is an old school pizza, yolo are welcome to pizzeria ramo the best and robot. no matter all of your mom
