serious, if the shelling continues, it could result in a nuclear disaster with effects that would reach far beyond ukraine. radiation knows no borders. there are currently $409.00 active nuclear reactors and operation worldwide. the usa has the largest number of them, followed by france. china, russia, south korea and india, on average, they've been in operation for around 31 years. in the past year, nuclear power accounted for just under 10 percent of world wide energy production. many countries are continuing to rely on nuclear power and even want to expand its use. their motivation is climate change and the threat of an impending blackout. a terrifying threat to the planet. but for others, a risk worth taking nuclear power is divisive. china or in india have been ramping up their capacities to get electricity to hundreds of millions,

more people without raising emissions or other countries from germany to japan has been switching off plants because they're worried about safety. do we need nuclear energy to stop climate change? and should we risk it? we've probably all heard of the infamous cannibal disaster in 1086. a reactor went out of control and blew up after overheated uranium melting through protective barriers. the disaster channel was the worst in the history of nuclear power generation. let's fast forward 25 years in 2011 an earthquake and c nami struck the coast of japan, killing molden, 19000 people, and sending 3 nuclear reactive at the fukushima plant into meltdown with disasters like these. it's no surprise people find nuclear power apocalyptic, but take a look at the numbers and that fear doesn't hold up compared to renewable sources of energy. nuclear has killed more people for each terror. what hour of

electricity than it's generated? but let's put that in the context of fossil fuels. the death rates from burning gas, oil, and coal make nuclear seem almost as safe as solar or wind. that's because burning fossil fuels release is toxic particles, but damage our lungs and haunts the appalachian they calls, kills an estimated $8000000.00 people a year. comparing nuclear and coal is like comparing planes and cars. while we obsess about plane crashes, far more people die on the road than in the f, every kilometer they travel. but plane crashes make the headlines and so they seem even scarier, same goes for nuclear disasters. you compare the look larry in the studio, all the old in industries. certainly you are fuzzy foods and the number of that that, that, that it is is the minimum. but so far there have been few nuclear disaster in history. and you catastrophe could change the entire discourse beyond that

radioactive waste could claim many lives in the future. more about that later. the fact that nuclear energy is safer than fossil fuels is one reason why some people at changing their minds about nuclear power. the big one is that in terms of climate change, nuclear is clean it c, o 2 emissions are about as low as solar and wind over its lifetime. and it also provides a pretty constant supply of electricity as countries kick fossil fuels out of that energy grids. nuclear could provide a steady baseload for when the sun isn't shining and the winds not blowing. 10 years ago i changed my nuclear energy. i realize that we needed nuclear energy to solid climate change, but does quitting nuclear mean burning more fossil fuels? let's look at germany. it's been shutting down nuclear plants for decades. if you hear guns off, as i want to say completely openly here as a supporter of the p will use of nuclear energy because my view on nuclear energy

has changed since the events of japan. shortly after the fukushima does after german chancellor angle america announced the nuclear phase out a decision that may have proved costly. a study in 2019 estimated that quitting nuclear flu, germany's coal exit so much for that lead to $1100.00 more depth than expected from breathing dirty air each year. the annual social cost is $12000000000.00 but that's only half the story. germany's electricity emissions actually later fell as renewables push coal out of the mix and energy experts say the massive expansion of renewables was only politically possible because the government agreed to quit nuclear you cannot do it both ways. probably in germany would have been able to reduce the clinician weaker bit differently. but i hope you really think of

renewable, although not only in germany, but this is merely again, your van, an expert on nuclear power. she says renewable energy. is it cheaper than building new nuclear plants? it's not the same as keeping existing nuclear plants on line for longer building new nuclear capacity is agatha groups now very expensive, but with prolonging now. but there's a catch year. old react is a more dangerous and need to be retrofitted to stay safe. and what about the nuclear waste? spent fuel rods stay radioactive tens of thousands of years. and it's not only the roads, all the concrete metal exposed to radiation can't just be thrown away. decommissioning and nuclear plant can take decades. the problem is, even after 70 years of nuclear power generation, nobody has found a proven way to get rid of the waste for good. my name is america, products for europe. this is have a camp on a boat in 2018 trying to stopping nuclear plant. he feels could end up dumping

radioactive waste into the ocean. nuclear waste is something even nuclear advocate . so sometimes unsure about is toxic radioactive and in the wrong hands could even be used or radioactive or does he bombs everything scope together in high reactive waste that needs to be kept out of the environment for coffee actin? no, that is really big. a real big channel, the industries solutions for nuclear waste to bury it. deep, underground, isolating the waste inside rocko clay to stop radiation reaching the surface. finland is set to open the wells. fuss, deep geological storage facility in 2023 to permanently deal with its nuclear waste . we think that deeper in the finished bedrock, 450 meters deep in a kind of concrete ah, parcher petrocca is the safest place to put them down there. uh

huh. it's always better there. lot in temporary storage is on the ground level. this is patsy to a he, mo, from placebo. the company that designed the facility. but if the site perceive is building a okay, latoya in west and finland is the only one in the world. and it hasn't even been built yet. can we really trust that the technology will work for ever? while of course, if it hasn't been started, there hasn't been a prototype, but it has been tested. even in o'clock that we have been doing 30 years of research. and it's all kind of possible i leaks and things that might happen. they are considered that might not convince environmentalists worried about contamination and even potential terror attacks in the distant future. but even they agree, the idea needs were such the world already has half a century's worth of nuclear waste to deal with. so what does this all mean for us to we really need nuclear power to stop climate change?

well, it completely help. nuclear is as safe as renewable energy in terms of lives lost and could balance out a clean energy mix. but we still can't be sure the waste won't come back to hurt us in the future. ah, in animals and not just pets, are part of daily life in cities. disappearing, habitats and the search for food have drawn them closer to humans. the noise of the city doesn't bother them and the conditions can be perfect for them to thrive. ah, but when animal populations explode, it can lead to conflicts between man and beast. ah, that's what's happening in a city in thailand. ah, monkeys, everywhere. how many needle can i come inside and still stuff from michelle separately

ending now they devour everything. they can find me more. i'm here in the town. there's no natural food source for them. maybe there's no fruit growing anywhere. you guys are going to be a good on the north. the monkeys have become a scourge. many of them are actually sick, having big man, similar problems to humans and diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity. one the evening rush hour in luxury is a perfect opportunity for these long tailed mic cox. anyone who hasn't stash they groceries away, doesn't stand a chance. the monkeys on nimble and completely brazen not to mention very hungry hunger has made them unafraid of crowds and traffic.

the mechanics collect around the towns ancient temple complex and are traditionally seen as sacred. that's why there are reservations about reducing their numbers. plus, they've always been a tourist magnet, the visitors who like to feed them, bring the town a lot of money. but since the pandemic tourists are staying away, videos posted on social media show what's happening in la bori as a result. hordes of monkeys rampaging through the streets, fighting full scraps of food and defending their patches, residence or feeling increasingly terrorized by the gangs of marauding mechanics. small business owners in particular are suffering language to we sacks. these are one runs of paint and varnish shop. it's been ransacked by monkeys more than once. these days is taken to keeping stuffed toy tiger heads in the store to frighten them off. oh boy,

oh boy valued cooper. otherwise the monkeys steal from the store and cause havoc. ah, i gotta have it with him. so putting out the tiger heads helps at least a bit. o. some of the monkeys realised they are real about, they still scare some of them away. the store next door has the same problem, patty, pon and suited 20 wrong cell comp. hans, the business has been in the family for generations. the couple actually like animals and even feeds the monkeys now and then. but still, they say they've become a plague and are a growing problem. how many middle can year locally and they come inside and steal stuff from the shelves? the older ones listen to me when i tell them off, and i like them, mentor me, but the young ones, a cheeky jolla. yeah, i don't like them anymore. and i shoe them away for that, i lay quietly in yet, and she's even installed

a grid to keep them out. the trouble is most people in love bery who feed the monkeys do so out of kindness. but it doesn't do them any good locals often give them cartons of juice and all sorts of others, sugary snacks. the monkeys snatch it all up. but none of it is filling, and it makes them hyperactive. manners we looked upon, works in animal welfare, and is one of the few people in lapreet who understands how they died is affecting the monkeys behavior. his organization raises money to buy them fresh fruit, such as melons instead. memory wrong them with their b. b bowler, mar. in the town, there's no natural food source for them because there's no fruit growing anywhere.

hello. i can be a good warm or not. they depend on people for their food. me what the soon as they see a human, they expect to find food for them. that's why their behavior is changed. no one knows the exact size of the mccarthy population in the town. according to some estimates, there are 6000 of them. while others suggest the number is closer 220000, this is where many of them live and abandoned cinema in the middle of love bery manners we looked upon shows as what the building used to look like. outside the monkeys are busy jumping on corn cups. this vendor didn't manage to sell everything, so he let them have the left of his bill. well what? i feel sorry for them. they have nothing in their part over town. gun repeating

with many here agree with him, but clearly this is no life for them. even if it is the only life they've ever known, this could be one solution to the problem. an enclosure on the outskirts of town. it would be a refuge for the ma cox and they'd be properly fed. but unfortunately, there are delays in its construction, and the plan is proving expensive. neighbors are also protesting. they don't want monkeys living on the doorstep veterinarian. no. tom susanna was born in la berry and also sees the monkeys as a piece of local tradition. but for years she has been seeing a decline in their health and an increase in accidents. how once had bought mat hi marilyn hi, how many are obese? mother how high and therefore, unless he nimble,

when they crossed the street jacquelina back, lay like hasty about being wanted in general, they have, i only have the same problems as human. but the and ethical nighty in the have very high cholesterol levels in their blood. and that's because of what they're eating go to day, she looks after monkeys that have been injured, but she also regularly sterilized as them, as per the authorities. instructions, not all the plan is to reduce their numbers that way, but it's an uphill bicycle, and i don't. hi, sandman, lowland syncing loud has a morales out my come, we need a sterilization quota of 75 percent heal up on. otherwise, their numbers will keep rising, hadn't made me pan die. we've managed just 15 percent. so there's a long way to go with. and it's a problem in other towns and thailand to mean not just hear a lot of light on what nipple had tied him and he been happening. and what this wilcox life has been saved. but there is no sustainable long term plan to look off

to the monkeys of love worry on the animal welfare workers believe they deserve better. the corona virus caused massive damage world wide to people's health, the economy and society as a whole. according to the world health organization, w h o. during the 1st year of the pandemic, the number of people struggling with psychological problems, like anxiety and depression, increased like 25 percent. but there are creative projects underway to help fight the mental health crisis. to red rick shanty homes right stiffly on the hills of rhetoric in the east of caracas. home to jimmy perez, katara is one of the largest slums in the world. the flat roof tops here, i called flat a band of these open spaces,

gained new significance during the cove at 19 pandemic. l. c till day and federal. it's a place on the roof of a house made with construction materials and up ladon up is in the populated areas to plot. amanda is a socialist pace where people celebrate birthdays. 15 years, birthdays company, while activities they take place here are carmella to sell up their plot upon the holes. people's memories gaz after hi melissa mold. trish were feeling gnawed, ella from media lamp and combat theater. the rooftops became the base for the project. sidney platter. bonder launched in the 1st months of the pandemic, it used outdoor cinema to relieve residence, confined to their homes. the events of continued beyond the quarantine locked downs and expanded to include life music. more than $200.00 screenings have now been held with several sheffield each month. the project was

a reaction to the increased level of violence and suicide. experienced during the pandemic. the projects co organizer, and jimmy's twin brother, jaime, explains the program i seen in front d. i, there are children fields and documentary phones, one important field which deals with the fight against depression, leprosy own up, or le cinco and look at them in the this is for a population that is leaving through trauma. i'm going through the process of morning and sadness that he stay also the scar this week, left by been a swell and social situation. either significant. all of that was projected in to our plaque up on the scene, him a screen which he what won't come by the community that though i generated i warner media. if there is so lucky was the level of violence was free to use. as the film ends, residents flash their lights to applaud and not only for the entertainment, they are grateful for the connections, the rooftop events have created the what

a game, blah. you ain't by that have been given me, cassandra, sometimes there may be events which i can't see from my house. oh yeah. yeah. from what we speak with our neighbors who are watching that right away. and we move to their house and sit together. can you by phone because they had a big balcony with a good view off my wife in a home by the fema, we already knew each other effective. but now we share more a theme on back this rooftop project allows us to share more, have more contact a c a. and now we're more integrated to my company. our. com. again, these were the pandemic intensified the social problems which plagues pottery gangs used to lockdown to step up criminal activity. petrie, no one has venezuela's most dangerous place, became even more insecure through sydney platter. bonder the community reclaimed public space. the organizers say their initiative showed petard,

his residence. how to take action, where public services fail. jo, are speedo. ok. i a surprise to see violence. reduce your empathetic, yet only come on is the only way home. one also is there and people like garza who take care of the portland topics board thanks. necessary topics and then we will be in upper tattered without home and without future dante nor to yamaha finance and on not to get a muffled doodle. oh lapi no more than welcome we aspire to half a more humane community with a barrier the gauge shown with a barrier between your to help us where people feel use old tim on the line in ear . and we are sure when dark a we thou government here without being bar of a structure. we have demonstrated great achievement, a significant import than a shift them for the people know what he for the community, for children or for them. for kate, take care school, i'm for parents senior, but i don't represent that they're not on the panels. the sinner, platter band,

a team drive their equipment to one of the poorest parts of the giant settlement where they are excited audience awaits this screening is for the children who hardly get to visit a real cinema donors have signed up to provide food for kids who frequently go hungry, which are fired. okay, sick out of many parents or without work, they can't take care of their family. also emilia, there are children who go to bed without eating or mayor for long age or come to go . when i started coming here, they told me glenda, i've gone 2 days without eating those 2 days without food. think or man, it's something he has experienced enough. well, and, and they give us a lot of and now we're bigger and stronger them over than the fluidity this cinema project is shining, a light on how a community can come together. even in the darkest moments, ah ah

power global living room this week? isn't italy? ah loon. i'm just like read my name is patrice sierra. i come from co my year in the all star valley. i've lived here all my life than to be done, then be look what you thought johnny, i'll show you the house with mister, we amused this is my living room where i relax. ah,
