12:36 am
conducting air raids on ukraine from bella, roofs, and likely receiving bella. ruffian tanks and attack could come at any moment while the war in ukraine has also triggered hardship in other european countries. greece is grappling with rising living costs, and then the capital athens, one neighborhood is pulling together to help those in need. ex are here is a historically socialist area with a strong community spirit. marta lives there and she treasures this sense of solidarity. now she's fighting to keep the spirit alive during times of change. from a birds eye view, athens, its archaea neighborhood looks like any other densely populated district and the greek capital. but when you look closer, you realize it's more diverse, young and alternative than other neighborhoods.
12:37 am
and there's greater solidarity, says mac estrus. you, the actor has lived in this liberal neighborhood for 6 years. you can go to the shopper, even if you don't have money to buy the grocery to the coffee shop, do eat sound thing and you know, we know each other. so we can leave here without having sometimes money. that's why more and more people are moving here in these economically tough times, including immigrants and those with limited means. el chef is a neighborhood kitchen that gives meals to people in meat. and the more that these are message here is that in cooking together and serving meals in solidarity, yes. oh my, you have the people here cook around 200 meals a day. maybe they, the local authorities who should actually be looking after these people tell the homeless and refugees to come here. but that's no problem. if everyone gets something to eat here, nothing. and the probably be, these are going,
12:38 am
we don't receive any subsidies, some hot b. but this building has been a squat since 2008. and i, nana, deputy men laclede, out of you haven't looked all squats and protests at a long history and ex arcadia. the spinner colette, the ducky, remembers the student protests against the greek military hunter. when she was a little girl, a major student uprising here at athens, polytechnic was violently shut down in november, 1973. the organs look at the venue. we saw trucks with soldiers driving towards the university. they were singing marching songs, the corn that we realized it would get bloody and sought safety. prog mother, we will never forget those crimes x r k is proud of its history. the movement that exists here to day follows and the tradition of the student protests. but for the old rebels and newcomers alike,
12:39 am
the area is getting more expensive. the cost of rent is claiming, and the number of holiday apartments for tourists is growing. sometimes violent protests erupt in the area during the night but most residents late matter prefer peaceful protests and ex archeologist don't know. there's currently a lot of attention on the neighborhoods, central square which is under construction to add a new subway station. a large fence protects the site and there's a round the clock police presence of someone who's like muttered grease weezer, a good st, but that they could have built the stop elsewhere. she thinks authorities are trying to push locals out of this area. would be also be a fi, residents were not involved in the planning even though this will destroy the only
12:40 am
public square in the neighborhood. it's one of the few places where we can come together, where children can play someone medical matters. we have that we bought a mosquito form in a gun, but yet shakes. 3 years ago, a minister of the conservative government came to this square and announced it would be taken back. palmetto bluff day said cecil, we'll return the square to the people that we will in the lawlessness beyond. thanks to our party, neo democrats, yeo this will become a normal square again. lethia. most people in athens, however, have no problem with it. sarky is will turn it of charm residents from all over come together at the neighborhoods weekly market. i'm about to do what's wrong with occupying a building that's been vacant for years. if that saves you living on the streets, you're not driving anyone out with a group of locals have gathered in the small
12:41 am
park to discuss how the area can be made more appealing. they want to make the improvements themselves. but police officers watched them suspiciously. very, very, very development. the public open space is adding danger in athens and i don't know around the whole country the people of ex archaea want to preserve its unique character. and matto wants to keep promoting a life of solidarity and sustainability. even if the neighborhoods feature looks uncertain, the baltic sea is like a 2nd home to over kruger and his grandson. it's where the elder passes his knowledge of fishing to a younger generation, but making a living on the sea isn't what it used to be. that's because pollution and climate
12:42 am
change have drastically altered the condition of the water fish are few and far between. and that's despite attempts to revive the ecosystem. parts of the baltic sea are suffocating as oxygen levels deplete. to record lows, the cleaning up the sea also means paying close attention to what's happening on land. hoover kruger has been fishing around the german island of who's a dome since he was 5. he was one of more than 200 fishers in his home town of all back now is the last one left. but over still takes his grandchildren out to see, to pass on his knowledge. them on more decision making a living from fishing, a luminous tough, you know, you don't have much chance with the days fuel prices on monday. if you market the fish yourself, you could just about make it. i have our home and all language on this year. his grandson niels is the only apprentice fisher here in sas nits on the baltic sea. he
12:43 am
wants to make fishing his career just like his father and grandfather, despite the uncertain future and dwindling stars. nozzle, i, it's my christmas one or 2 boxes per net wouldn't be bad. that's $20.00 to $30.00 kilos. they don't even get 2 boxes out of the water to day. some of the fish are too small and half to be thrown back. all in all, it's far too little to live from where did the fish go? there have been strict catch quotas for years. why are stocks not recovering? fisher, the kruger blames the birds. he says they're taking all the fish. but researchers that the tuning institution, rostock suspect, the lack of oxygen, they set up a research area and the baltic. they wanted to find out how much oxygen there is in the water,
12:44 am
and how high the temperatures rise. a few months later they had the data they needed program director christopher timmerman says the results are devastating bunions in jewel directed from june. we were under the critical concentrations and from august there just wasn't any oxygen there. she like that might be an error was good, but you can see that the oxygen concentration is getting lower and lower apple descent from the start of august. it's 0 and that doesn't change. massive summer i'll go blooms are the problem. when the algae die, they dropped to the sea bed and are broken down by oxygen consuming bacteria. this creat zones that can no longer support life called dead zones. dash with descent called her being sandwiched between high temperatures near the surface and oxygen depletion. down below by august, there's new spaceland. it is kind, the oper water is too warm and the deeper water has new oxygen swamp begun. so which means it's no more called eligible phase. and that's exactly what we're
12:45 am
hearing from the fissure signal as was before the are not catching called any more here, not just any kind of door schiffer. this phenomenon isn't new. but in recent years there has been more algy and the dead zones are growing. why are the algae growing so intensively? i think we joined environmental action germany to investigate near the odor river in brandenburg. there are big farms here for fattening chickens that produce a lot of manure. in both of them is figure out the manure is picked up from the farms and spread on to the fields. the plants take up some of it, but not all. that's because in germany, they're allowed to use excessive amounts. this excess ends up in the ground water and streams that flow across our landscape via these streams, the many are quickly reaches the odor and then the baltic. and in the order on me that order in the us in poland to their farms right on the banks of the odor
12:46 am
for years now, heavy fertilization has left phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations too high, both of which are found in manure just this summer. there was a major fish die out and the odor ostensibly triggered by excess algae. there's still a thick carpet of red algy on the surface of that fun mentioned what we're that's caused by humans and humans have to stop it and do better thought machen couldn't it enrages me. this is that's all there is to it. the 5th of english. that's why you've a krueger sing, fewer and fewer fish. how long can that continue? that i have john here, maybe 5 years, or 4. if they don't raise the quote a soon, then no one will be able to continue. either. we just want to maintain this cultural legacy wherever. if the health of the baltic doesn't improve the culture, a legacy family tradition and the attire baltic fishing industry might soon go

under who invented the french fry. both france and belgium claimed to have introduced this guilty pleasure to the world. though fries aren't the healthiest option on the menu, there's no need for a guilty conscience, especially if you order them in the north of france. the region is famous for its crispy golden potatoes, and specialties like french fries with mussels. and the fat used for frying the potatoes is also in high demand for a li marvelle that presents an opportunity to do something good for the planet. she is taking part in a local initiative that turns fat into fuel. with the hope that one day more vehicles will be powered by the salty side dish, french fries, or a favorite food in northern france. or a morose fries them up by the killer. soon it will be lunchtime, after kiosk le frita veiling was valid. with

12:51 am
to fill up with 100 percent frying all diesel is due to a special exception for such transport fleets. the diesel substitute isn't to crew for use on the streets in france. only small amounts. the lunch time, customers are standing in line and or a lease kiosk. the friars are bubbling. there's a good market for used oil, but or a li, decided to donate hers to the biodiesel company. the record is evidently i give all i there are companies that will buy old oil, so i could be making a profit from it. glad of it. but the benefit i get is being environmentally and socially responsible and that's worth it. well, i've been having nickel and those french fries just tastes so much better when you've got a clear conscience, the yearning to retreat from the world as something many of us can relate to an ordained age for brother f a. me it's been a reality for nearly 20 years. he renounced modern life to spend his days in
