a reflection of a turbulent history. the cities, the mosaic of different people and languages o e, ron's mountains reveal unparalleled beauty level. yeah, more. the scenery is magnificent, vertical, and warm in a position is exceptionally ah, a special look at a special country. iran from above. start september 16th on d, w. ah ah, ah, welcome to global 3000 deadly racket. widespread noise pollution is harming marine life in our ocean's. scorching sun

drought in the home of africa means ever more people that are facing extreme hunger and dangerous friendship. why vladimir putin has a growing fan base in indonesia. for the past 6 months, ukraine has been defending a more than 2000 kilometer long front against russia's invasion, which contravenes international law. millions of people are on the run. thousands of soldiers on both sides have been killed or injured. many towns and villages lion ruins, but russia's plans go far beyond ukraine. it wants to weaken the west and is seeking allies around the world to do so. russian mercenaries active in molly, for example, threatened to jeopardize the un mission. and steve stabilized the entire saw hel

region was potentially grave consequences for western europe and elsewhere to does admiration for the suppose in stone. man, in the kremlin, vladimir putin there on my way to russian class, watching his taxi drivers, real estate agents, and tourist guides on the island of holly that used to doing business with russian tourists. and william, i'm a loosened and have to be able to speak russian on barley brothers, most of us work in tourism. and since lots of russians started coming here, it's important to speak russian. luckily, as opposed to many russians are settling permanently on barley, 30 year old dita is married to a russian like that. she's visited moscow twice. she likes russia and putin above all, just like her friend triana. ah, how is matthew? he has no take and he has beautiful eyes. look, i see the glass and let his po, i think he's a good person to feel over. it takes

a strong man like him to lead such a big country, woman, yellow, who do i love po john. he's clever and yes, very strong. one only thought that russia and indonesia have had close relations for decades. been running. russia supported indonesian independence. back in the 1950s, rinaldo to r. kelly explains, he teaches russian studies at indonesia is biggest state university. neither he or the cap and one, at least this of this close relationship and indonesia and rashadi have developed partnerships and many sectors and fields of yes are my now in particular from the year 2000 onwards. the dk from education technology, that rate on the economy to fighting terrorism of bicycle by contract, that'll re sma russia has even managed to cultivate and islam friendly image. amongst other things, by investing and cultural centers, state managed media and stipends. that's important. hillan denisia,

which has the world's largest muslim population. now by them. as alchemy, being under puritans, leadership, islam, islam has become a part of russia and daddy, melissa russia's national identity. no also encompasses islam lamb. the reverse is true for the image of the u. s. booty man, so jeff mico from the countries ruling party stresses the wars against muslim majority states, like afghanistan, iraq and libya have been stirring up antipathy towards u. s. foreign policy. for years. many indonesians see the u. s. as a super power out for global domination and to crush other cultures. when you got this are frank will say, okay, as far as the war between russia and ukraine was concerned, russia is seen as the only country that has the courage to oppose western expansion plans. did he, i over here conversations in small stores or taxi's right. where people say the west seems to want ukraine, and that is perceived as a clear threat to russia. you're probably the was yeah. yeah. you are all my law.

officially, the indonesian government is neutral. president, yoko widow has presented himself as an unbiased mediator. he recently visited keith on the destruction in surrounding neighborhoods, but then travelled on to moscow by about our response is proportionate. that's why we're against sanctions. we shouldn't isolate the country, the impact on energy and food supplies could be enormous on em. but we don't want to put gasoline onto a burning fire at the language school on bali. they're not quite as neutral as that president. there are lots of anti western and pro russian video circulating on the internet when they all know is putin's address at the victory day parade, to mock the defeat of nazi germany. ah, nearly a video. i mean, when i see that video, i sense patriotism, strong leadership heroism,

any country that was ever attacked or colonized loudly like we indonesians where will also be able to sympathize within laneesa these language students at my a puritans, military strength and indonesia, russian propaganda is falling on fertile soil. ah, the you estimates that this year europe has seen the worst drought for 500 years. almost half the continent has been affected. the economic consequences are huge, but the situation is not life threatening for people laugh. it's a different story in eastern africa, a little rainfall. drought in the horn of africa has left full point 7000000 children, undefined in ethiopia, suffering from acute malnutrition. 1.5000000 in somalia, and around 950000 in kenya. across the region, molden 6000000 livestock have died or have had to be snorted.

over $25000.00 sheep, goats and cattle are being slaughtered by the canyon government and the meat distributed to family suffering from extreme malnutrition. in africa, animals are usually slaughtered to mark celebrations and signal prosperity. the meat is typically cooked for guests and friends or at weddings. but in some bureau, in the north of the country, it has become a sign of desperation. one quote has been shipped by full households on the one code by then household. so it will help in terms of also uploading them to us as i mean, so by to live operations, auto emissions today at one point, the drought is not just the problem here, but throughout east africa, it hasn't rained properly for more than a year. nothing grows here any more. people and animals are suffering from water shortages. so kenya has decided to slaughter any animals that are already weak with

glen lunney l, unless i am 30 cows and are all emaciated because of the drought. let's get out if it doesn't rain soon, it would be a huge loss for me. i was just so i've come had to sell my house. mostly women and children sit by a tree and enjoy my they will yet. they have walked for hours in the heat, in the hopes of getting help for their mound. nourished children, my mother didn't know what little i might have that one. i took my child to hospital for treatment and was told it white to little. then i'm going to a patrick doc is a nurse at the nearby gila health center. he tries to help where he can, but the use of drought, the heat and the long distances make it difficult. most families only have mays flour mixed with water to eat. so they see what the most of the times so was are then seemed to get these other fruits because here and on the place is very dry. so

we don't athlete tables. we don't really know the fruit. so give or he and that eat on that. okay. so they are slaughtering cattle. this provides income for farmers food for the people and fewer animals to fight over what little water is available . but it also has a negative impact on their livelihoods. it's a temporary solution for an ongoing problem. so he's sending me his video because he the slice noel. so for, for to dale to that, the v defending that did you have obviously to have them. but someone is going to sell and about when do they meet? so at least their household for to be at least assisted many parched earth. as far as the i can see the people in eastern kenya's toner river region have not seen heavy rainfall for months. the majority of people here are cattle herders. they live from their animals and so they walk hundreds of kilometers in

search of water. and we can talk on this, katie or hertz didn't managed to acclimatize when we came here while of comfort, laquon and melancholy. their health deteriorated massively far for koya either way . do e peppa we are suffering and i because the drought, i thought most of the animals have died by night then are coming here in missing the at a medical facility each day. the women of the tunnel river walk to a small water basin to fill their plastic containers, but they can see the water levels getting lower and lower here to the united since world food program fears there could be a humanitarian catastrophe. currently over 15000000 people of it impacted my require food assistance, the loan of africa. and if the rains continued to fail, as we are witnessing is predicted of over 20000000 people will be impacted on by the delt. underwood, quail, food assistance. the drought is hitting the youngest,

particularly hard. unicef estimates that some 8000000 children between the ages of 5 and 15 are at risk of starvation. they don't have the strength left in their emaciated bodies to even make it to the nearest 8 point. higher food prices also means smaller deliveries from the aid organizations. we've seen the cost of energy go up with the recent india international situation. and even coastal production of food is something about de la medical son. but this will also go up. heavy rain is with the people in the horn of africa are hoping for, but it doesn't look likely, at least for the next few months. that to dramatically worse in the situation across east africa, we planes, cars trains that whole very noisy in the e u alone. more than a 100000000 people are exposed to high levels of noise pollution in their daily

lives. and it's not only people who suffer animals due to particularly marine life, the propellers of the more than $62000.00 congo ships on our seas create an enormous amount of noise which can be heard for kilometers around. and there are many other sources of ocean noise pollution to the dim drives fish from that feeding and breeding areas. and in the worst cases it can even kill them . 2 lou, the ocean is a symphony of sounds, at least where they can still be heard. we humans have made the sea noisier than ever before. and the way things are going, the underwater world is set to become one thing. even louder with devastating

effects on marine life. oh, keating, tis creditor, lloyd, and sensing their environment, they're really finding or is it actually okay? let's explore some smart ways of turning down the volume in the ocean and find out why this might also be good for the climate underwater sound. waves traveled extremely fast and up to thousands of kilometers. sound is essential for almost all marine animals from whales to jelly, fish. mm. animals you sound to communicate, to navigate, and to find meeting partners or pray. but hearing what those creatures need to hear is getting increasingly difficult. summary life is

currently exposed to noise levels that can destroy their sense of hearing, literally render them deaf or kill them. it's like you're logging around in a fog. that's a pretty serious effect to for animals that depend on sound so much. so why are the oceans becoming so noisy? one factor is offshore wind farms, and when energy is generally a good thing. but installing offshore turbines creates a great deal of noise. in the north sea, it damage the hearing of porpoises driving them away from their feeding and breeding grounds. and the agents are most likely exceed pilots and they have to drive into the steep it by hammering or impact pile driving. and this course under water noise, which is smallest, comparable as in stopping aircraft. the sounds emitted by the pile structural elements smashing into the sea floor travel several kilometers from the source.

but help is on the way compressed air flowing through tubes on the ocean floor round the piles creates bubbles that rise to the surface, forming a tight insulation curtain. fewer sound waves managed to penetrate the barrier leading to a 90 percent reduction in volume. this is how things sound without an air bubble curtain and this is with an air bubble curtain. challenging issues that if to, to lift with the offshore conditions, wind, waves, weather conditions, currents and so on. but thanks to ty, to regulations the curtains are now almost standard for construction off germany's north sea coast. and interest is also picking up in the us, the netherlands, and taiwan implementing bubble curtains cost just one percent or less of the total

investment for an offshore wind farm. the music loud, we're going in. so wind turbines are one thing, but there's a bigger problem. container ships. international shipping is by far the main source of noise pollution in our oceans. the culprit and the potential solution is the ship's propeller. domestic pressure cooker is worked by controlling the steam pressure inside them, pushing up the temperature at which water boils. the resulting higher heat means faster cooking. i ships, propeller the opposite happens, not with food, but with water and effect called cavitation. so it, due to the fast motion of that propeller through the water. locally, the pressure is extremely low. so that ambient temperature, the water boils and creates the am bubbles, creates a vapor bubbles. and these bubbles grow. and these bubbles shrink and collapse.

this generates noise levels comparable to a rock concert on dry land. the solution has the potential to be good news for the climate. and the profit margins of big shipping companies, essentially, fewer bubbles can mean lower fuel consumption. in 2017 denmark based mask retrofitted, the propellers and engines of 5 vessels, primarily to say fuel. but their sound emissions also dropped by 75 percent. this add on device improves the vessels flow and the water, which according to its maker means less cavitation and fuel savings of up to 8 percent. but installation isn't cheap. and shipping, firms are rarely obliged to make. the changes with cargo price is currently very high. they prefer to keep ships in operation rather than investing in a retrofit for many ships. that could be savings possible, especially due to the fact that each ship needs to go to dr. dropping each say,

each a 4 to 5 years to incentivize ship operators. the port of vancouver has cut port charges for certified quieter vessels by as much as half but the loudest defenders are seismic air guns. the fossil fuel industry uses them to locate new oil and gas fields in the ocean. their sound waves are as loud as the spacecraft and can be heard hundreds of kilometers from the source for days, sometimes even weeks or months. these tubes fire out compressed air every 10 seconds. with every blast, 2 thirds of all soul plankton larva, within a kilometer of the explosion, dropped dead. they insure the health of the ecosystem here while credibly wasteful . they're way too loud for what they need to do. ironically,

the fossil fuel industry is itself conducting research on more environmentally friendly methods for its surveys. one technique is called marine viber size, which generates the required signals by a vibration instead of an explosion. the result is more of a constant hom, rather than a big sudden blast and air gun, so strong a good, a foot rip your arm off. whereas a vibrant size i lamb, you could put an egg underneath and panic. wrong. great, initial models suggest that the impact on marine life would be just 10 percent of that of an air gone. the likes of exxon mobil total energies and shell may have their eye on another advantage. however, marine viper size can also map oil and gas in shallow waters. but doesn't this sound paradoxical, more sustainable methods to find more fossil fuels? we really should not be, we just should not be surgeon co island gas under the ocean anymore. we, you know,

we really need to make this green transition. that's the main solution. there are plenty of options for reducing marine noise pollution, but more progress is needed on the regulatory front. in 2011 germany introduced one of the world's 1st noise limits in place to protect north sea marine life. air bubble curtains are now standard. there in the industry is doing fine. taiwan is introducing a similar regulation. quieter is better for the environment, but without incentives or new laws. the industry has few reason to change. hulu. when tropical storms move across el salvador, the country can be hit by up to 50 centimeters of rain per day. that's more than in many european cities all year. storms are becoming heavier and more common. climate change is wreaking havoc with the country. rising sea levels, drought, hurricane. a local environmental initiative is encouraging action in el salvador

small changes for a big goal, protecting the habitat, if those people and animals paradise . on the brink. for thousands of years, mangroves lined this pacific coastline. but rising sea levels have decimated vast swathes of them. conservationists from the salvador and center for appropriate technology already see the grim reality of climate change. yet among that, that's a governor. v mangrove stride up just last year. over and over there were old mangrove forests, but look, now you only, shan minerals. all these mangroves behind me are over 30 meters tall because the city hasn't gotten this i yet, they live there, but levels are rising. that's what i got on your a fan of up another. the people who lived here had to abandon their homes, like so many in el salvador,

they had no choice but to flee rising sea levels. realities such as these compelled ricardo, nevada, to fight climate change from a relatively young age. he founded cesta 40 years ago with people in the region. he works to raise awareness of environmental issues a san marcos in st. and all from you, maria, that we're not just aiming to raise awareness among others, but also amongst ourselves, angela. we believe that says those project to reduce the plastic usage and everything that causes pollution and rising temperatures are all important when it comes to reducing climate change for them in real. okay, eric honorably mod equal many wild animals species here are endangered. and now their habitats are being destroyed. gerberg's mother got it all in my lodgings is a global problem, but it's caused by the world's richest people who consume far more resources school and generate more greenhouse gases. i, me, diesel. my put it this way. the world's elite owes poor people, i'm

a massive environmental debt over, and it's the poor people who suffer most from climate change and that element that, that the mom over this inequality is reflected in the lives of many women in these small communities around san salvador sister is training them how to fall mechanically. despite l. salvatore's fertile soil, more than 70 percent of its food, including fresh produce, is imported. as a result, c o. 2 emissions from transport and storage a high in recent years, women like veronica dead, assario eci going to pettis have started to grow their own vegetables and fruits organically. it's now their main source of income, about 80 female farm as a taking part in the project. as a result, supplies of regional fruits and vegetables have significantly increased in a set that us, if their la la la sam look at the neighborhood. but although we announcer harvest to the community, does it up at sun salim, or having lead in a colonial?

then we go around selling our produce from carts, sunbeam is that all of that la la mole, home on it. we sell a lot eve, i think we can provide for ourselves. and there's always still some left over to sell. low might sima eat, but even they most often the regional produce includes varieties of crops that don't grow elsewhere. the women who farm exchange knowledge and also seats this protects biodiversity. ongoing training is offered free of charge as part of the initiative to day people have gathered from 5 different communities. many of them would like to take part in the project. they've noticed how native seeds often prove more resilient to rising temperatures. for a so is to some with the boys and me a coin you are used need if sees in want to form organically law. he could put a handful in last in laconia. i had a bully for delicate,

the ending moral one example is using mulch from need of fruit trees to shield soil from sunlight and evaporation law. live up what i see on a label that bit, i see on saying men of that this keeps the earth moist so it makes the crops more resistant to climate change you than the iowa. i said a mattress in the envelope with you. how come you of the month ago? living in harmony with nature was a tenants of the ancient mayan civilization which inhabited this region for ricardo nevada. this is important. he wants to restore harmony with the countries natural and cultural roots. it topic and you'll come musical again, you'll see him back door. these small changes will remain. so unless more people join in middleton like the force of a hurricane. the other thing at the end of the day, it's a coward, comes from many small water drop, working together in accord waited away as one made organism. even if change is slow, this growing environmental movement is inspired and determined. they will never

give out the fight for sustainability in el salvador. oh, the fight for the country's future. and that's all from us at global 3000 this time. thanks for joining us. did you enjoy the show? let us know right to global 3000 at d, w dot com and you'll find us on facebook to d w global ideas. see you next time and until then take care. ah ah ah

ah ah ah. with e glaciers ah, provide nourishment in baton for both body and soul. ah. but climate change is threatening this balance.

the booties are adapting to these shifts with innovative strategies. he come india in 30 minutes on d. w. o . last has no limits. love is for everybody loves his life. i love matters and that's my new podcast. i'm evelyn sharma. and i really think we need to talk about all the topics that north divides and denied that this. i have invited many deer and well known guests . and i would like to invite you to and then we're all that good to go beyond the obvious we're

as we take on the world, 8 hours, i do all the fields were all about the stories that matter to you. whatever it takes by policemen follow. oh, do, here we are, your is actually on fire made for mines a ended the listening place of long the mediterranean sea. it's waters connect people of many cultures. seen it almost rock and to far abdul karim drift along with exploring modern lifestyles and mediterranean, where it has history left its traces,
