that are suspected of being a part of this network. but this still has to be investigated and, and proven. we know that the ringleader of the network is this one, man, he is an entrepreneur based out of the city of, of frank for a 2 year in germany. but he is also a descendant of a noble family and still calls himself prince, even though that is just a symbolic title until now. and he is the one who was basically putting together an organizing this network, which also consisted of as we said, a former member of the german parliament, but also members of the german art armed forces and a special forces, one member of the special forces. and he had basically planned to set up this network to ultimately storm the parliament with weapons and tried to overturn the democratic order here. and doing that. they had basically set up a shadow cabinet of people with different roles which they would have taken on once the qu had happened. then in the meantime,

visible reminder of the thread that humans post animal and plant life for a station, changes in land use, the climate crisis and pollution are also taken a big tall. about $1000000.00 species are currently at risk of becoming extinct due to human activity. this not only threatens to degrade ecosystems further, but also endangers our own welfare. we depend on by 11, therefore the food we eat there. what do we drink? there was pressure of cub on the medicines we take for a spend 70 percent of cancer. drugs come from by diversity on nature. the u. n. by diversity conference was sent on how to protect 30 percent of land and sea by 2030 scientists stress that this target is needed to prevent the collapse of ecosystems and human prosperity in the future. the biggest threat is us human beings and then

length, our relationship with nature changes. the situation will continue to be touring. i'm saying so because 97 percent of the global biodiversity is degraded as the result of human action. we need to take urgent measures to protect ourselves from ourselves, experts argue, but who will cover the costs. some emerging and developing economies such as indonesia, india, brazil, south africa, entered democratic republic of congo, tend to be particularly rich in but versity. but these countries argue that they lack the resources to expand their conservation efforts. they are demanding financial support from rich nations. we don't want to see a target which has absolutely no hope of implementation. sorry to say there is no time to lose. however, even if the cook 15 participants set an ambitious target, it can only be the beginning. none of the by the versity objectives agreed at the

2010 convention, have yet been fully implemented by the global community. i didn't your engine from our environment desk is following this story for us. i did. can you help us understand what's actually at stake during this conference? so at stake of really nothing less than the future of life on a. and i mean it's not say that if we don't solve it now, then we're doing forever. but just that every year that we let go past where we continue, as we decide in the report, fail to meet targets. it makes it harder and harder in the some sci fi that last forever. so, i mean, this landmark review of the science that was published a few years ago, found that nature is declining an unprecedented rates in human history. i mean, not since before the dinosaurs, the next thing that we have this kind of destruction and the extinction of species is happening faster and faster and faster. and so that's what the conference is trying to address or proposals on the table, like protecting back to planet bland and see trying to push from the subsidy of the

way from kind of destructive industries and towards protecting nature. all these sorts of things are being discussed over the next couple of weeks. so this is really dramatic stuff. i mean, you're saying that at stake is the future of life on earth. and yet some people struggle to understand how this is relevant to them. how this is relevant to their lives. tell us why does it matter to all of us? this is a way to look at this, like on a very, very basic level. we pay for this, we pay when there's kind of when b go extinct, while the numbers die and so on and then have fewer pollinators to kind of keep their fruits growing in for the next season and everything. then that means we pay more that yield, go down our prices rise, that's what a relationship is quite simple. but then when you look at which crops are actually which foods really dependent on this, then things like staple crops mostly ok. the other problems like the way that with the grading soils and everything. but things like coffee is,

i mean you're going to go down 10 to 40 percent. if we just get rid of all the pollinators and things like chocolate cocoa beans, they completely gone. i mean, if you have a bar of chocolate today during work, if you had a cup of coffee in the morning, these sorts of things are gone forever. to start the things go and it means that we pay more in our direct day to day lives. on top of that, there's all the value that nature gives us. so things like medicines where we need to get them from the trees or plants. all sorts of things that we haven't even yet begun to discover. these are all things that we're getting rid of without really knowing how valuable they are to us. i believe a lot of the ingredients, the cancer medication comes from nature. yeah, exactly, and diseases we haven't even learned about that there is i haven't even hit us yet . what, what more can we do? i mean, what can be done to prevent in a more biodiversity collapse? so in a nutshell, the big things to do would be stopping climate change from getting worse. it's stop burning fossil fuels and heating the planet stuff. exploiting areas of nature with

beautiful fish that we've gotten the will behind us. if we stop over fishing, our oceans and fish, populations can start to recover and people could start to maybe fish and sustainable at sustainable levels. doing things like prevent preventing all the mining and logging that's kind of destroying anti ecosystems. all the sorts of things. a big shift that could happen through combination of policy, a combination of businesses being regulated and taking the initiative to do things themselves. and to some degree consumers, particularly rich countries, like her choosing to buy things that have less of an impact, less do less damage to the planet. it sounds like complicated doesn't and yet it's just, they tend to be difficult. i do neuron jam. thank you so much. thank you. lou . portugal are through to the football world cup quarter finals officer thrashing switzerland 6 to one in their round of 16 match. it was a dominant performance. portugal took it to lead into half time before putting
