how lucky that i was able to bill the juices in berlin because very closely related to me as a person who is architecture is a celebration of democracy, entities ah, so building, the biggest thing in the world is this spiritual freedom he amazes the world with his buildings and architect of emotions. architecture is kind of a mystery. believe me, daniel lee, this kent starts december 25th on d w with ah, ah, ah, welcome to global 3000 in caracas, a rooftop selma project connects communities. monkeys are on the loose

in a city in thailand and nuclear power stations, climate, saviors or dangerous relics does operate. asia in war torn ukraine is the location of europe's largest nuclear facility. since the russian invasion, it is repeatedly come under attack officials and moscow and ki have blame each other according to the international atomic energy agency. the situation is 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 active nuclear reactors in 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 and india have been ramping up their capacities to get electricity to hundreds of millions, more people without raising emissions. other countries from germany to japan have 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 1986. a reactor went out of control and blew up after overheated uranium melted 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 more than 19000 people and sending 3 nuclear reactive at the fukushima plant in to 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. a wind. that's because burning fossil fuels release is toxic particles, but damage our lungs and haunts the appellation they cause 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 air for every kilometer they travel. but plane crashes make the headlines. and so they seem even scarier, same goes for nuclear disasters. if you compare the clarion this group, although then industries certainly are fuzzy foods are they number that it is, is the minimum. but so far there have been few nuclear disasters 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 the energy grids. nuclear could provide a steady baseload for when the sun is shining in the winds, not blowing. 10 years ago i changed my mind by nuclear energy. i realized 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 office, i want to say completely openly here as a supporter of the peaceful use of nuclear energy. my view on nuclear energy has changed since the events in japan. shortly after the fukushima disaster, german chancellor angle america announced a nuclear phase out. a decision that may have proved costly. a study in 2019 estimated that quitting nuclear float japanese coal exit so much that it led 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. in energy experts say the massive expansion of renewables was only politically possible because the government agreed to quit nuclear. you can argue with both ways. probably germany would have been able to reduce the condition of the be quicker if it differently. but a also not only in germany, but this is merely again, yorba an expert on nuclear power. she says renewable energy is a cheaper than building new nuclear plants. it's not the same as keeping existing nuclear plants online for longer building new nuclear capacities added the now very friendly with prolonging you can. but as a catch yeah, 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 and 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 omar with europe. this is have a camp on a boat in 2018 trying to stop a nuclear plant. he failed could end up dumping radioactive waste into the ocean. nuclear waste is something even nuclear advocate, so sometimes unsure about it's toxic radioactive and in the wrong hands could even be used for radioactive or dirty bombs. overseas hooked together in high reactive waste needs to be kept out of the environment for protein. that is really big, really the industry solution for nuclear waste to bury it. deep, underground,

isolating the waste inside rockwell clay to stop radiation reaching the surface. finland is set to open the world's 1st 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 that 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 pa cba, 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 centuries 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 can clearly 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. huh. ah, animals and not just pets, are part of daily life in cities disappearing habit 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 still from michelle separately ending while they devour everything they can find when we are 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 warmer not the monkeys have become a scourge. many of them are actually sick, having them 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 mc cox. any one who hasn't stashed their groceries way 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 because small business owners in particular are suffering language to we suck. 3 zag 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. amore home buyer valued. otherwise the monkeys steal from the store and cause havoc, awe happy with them. so putting out the tiger heads helps at least a bit o. some of the monkeys realized they are real about, they still scare some of them away. the store next door has the same problem. patty, pon and su, tipped 20 wrong cell comp. hans. the business has been in the family for

generations. the couple actually like animals and even fees, the monkeys now and then. but still they say they've become a plague and are a growing problem having me who can yeah, lawfully. and they come inside and steal stuff from the shelves that the older ones listen to me when i tell them off. and i like them when kobe pop, but the young ones, a cheeky jolla. yeah, i don't like them anymore. and i shoot them away, or i lay quietly in yet and a focus, but she's even installed a grid to keep them out. the trouble is most people in lottery 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 at all

luck. 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 monkey's behavior. his organization raises money to buy them fresh fruit, such as melons instead. may murray them with their b, b, polo marin, the town there's no natural food source for them because there's no fruit growing anywhere. logging be all good alarm and what they do tend on people for their food and what the soon as they see a human they expect to find food program. 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 manas. we looked upon shows as what the building used to look like outside the monkeys are busy jumping on corn cops. this vendor didn't manage to sell everything . so he let them have the left of his red. i feel well, what i feel sorry for them. they have nothing and they're part of the town gun right didn't ago. yes. 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 them, a 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, lead on one monkeys living on their doorstep veterinarian out answers on them was born in lori and also sees the monkeys as a piece of local tradition. but for years, she's been seeing a decline in their health and an increase in accidents. but once i bought matt, hi, how long? how many are obese mother that i'm high and therefore, unless he nimble, when they cross the street jacquelina back, lay like hasty about being wanted in general, they have, i don't have the same problems as human habit. and at cooper night in they have very high cholesterol. levels in their blood and that's because of what they're eating go to day, she look self to monkeys that have been injured, but she also regularly sterilized as them, as per the authorities, instructions look, the plan is to reduce their numbers that way,

but it's an uphill battle and i don't have sandman though, my mind thinking out half a more, i lost my time. we need a sterilization quota of 75 percent heal up and otherwise their numbers will keep rising. hadn't made me pound i, 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 not just hear a lot of light on what never had tied him on the been happening. and what this le cox life has been saved. but there is no sustainable long term plan to look after the monkeys of love worry and 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 by 25 percent. but there are creative projects underway to help fight the mental health crisis. red brick shanty homes right steeply on the hills of photography 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 flatter bondo. these open spaces, gains new significance during the cove at 19 pandemic density only held federal. it's a place on the roof of a house made with construction materials and lab lavonda is in the populated areas to plot. the honda is a socialist pace where people celebrate birthdays, 15 years, birthdays company, while activities they take place here. oh, i got them out to sell up their plots of on the holes. he pulls memories gaz after

. hi melissa malls. trish are feeling nada from media library comp, barbados, the rooftops became the base for the project sydney plotted, 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 quarantines locked downs and expanded to include life music. more than $200.00 screenings have now been held with several scheduled 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 a funky i, there are children, fields and documentary phones, one important field which deals with the fight against oppression. let me put us your own up or last year, okay. when i get them in b, this is for a population that is leaving through trauma. i'm going through the process of

morning and sadness that he stay i'll so this car, this week left by been a swell and social situation. either significant. all of that was projected in to our plaque of on dusty name a screen which was welcomed by the community. i generated i warner media. there was only lucky was the level of violence was feed 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 name, blah. you ain't there, 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 movies and we move to their house and sit together 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 a more a theme compact. this is tom project allows us to share more, have more contact

a c a. and now we're more integrated. my combined with our com. again, these were the pandemic intensified the social problems which a plague pattern gangs used the lockdown to step up criminal activity pattern. no one has venezuela's most dangerous place, became even more insecure through sidney platter. bonder the community reclaimed public space. the organizers say their initiative showed patterns residence, how to take action, where public services fail. jo, are speedo. ok. i asked pride see violence, reduce empathetic yet only come on is the only way homeowner. so if there are adam, people like garza would take care of important topics both and necessary topics, and then we will be in a bit tattered without home and and without future dante nor to yamaha finance. and i'm not yet, i'm awful doodle lapierre month. and when i called, we aspire to half

a more humane community with a barrel to gauge, shown with a barrier between your audio help on what people feel used old in on the line, but in ear. and we are sure when darky, we thou government here without being the power of a structure. we have demonstrated great achievement. a significant aim brought than a shift them for the people normally for the community, for children, for kate, take care school and for parents senior, but i don't represent that the bottle of barley, 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, watch or 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 on the when i

started coming here, they told me glenda. i've gotten 2 days without eating those 2 days without food. i think, well man, it's something he has experienced enough. well and, and they give us a lot and now we're bigger and stronger. some of it on the fluidity the 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 i'm come up with greets, my name is patrice sierra. i come from cole,

my year in the ouster valley. i've lived here all my life. then i b degnan. b require. you follow me? i'll show you the house with this that we use this as my living room where i relax. ah, it was up in your post and this is my favorite place, my glasses. i can't read without them. they said it really as my king them with all my books, awkward dope will have all it greystone. i love reading. i read so much. that's why everything is so full of books, your leg with that. the also piece that he been in

wanted this is camille, i'm on long this another time and it's pretty my, the escalating, these were the rooms when we opened the hotel in 1972. they're still in need of a chance to sit down. they've been renovated over time. you voiceovers got daily, no vitamin sample, ah, ah, with for to that among i collect phases of mountains and especially of course my yo, yo know that i've been doing that since i was little that now i'm 60 call, if you another bondo, i started when i was 12 or 13 years old. actually even bang again. you'll get a bang as it on the may i love the mountains your they mean a lot to me sheets. yeah. that because if they just so beautiful a study with
