and he is still a prisoner tardy is one of the main causes some young children walk in mind trav instead of going to class others can attend classes only after they finish working with millions of children, all over the world can't go to school. we ask why, because education makes the world more just make up your own mind. d. w. made for mines. ah, ah, ah, welcome to global 3000 in caracas, a rooftop similar project connects communities. monkeys are on the loose
9:31 am
in a city in thailand and nuclear power stations, climate, saviors, or dangerous relics does up arissa 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 kiev 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 $409.00 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,
9:32 am
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 in 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 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 cannibal was the worst in the history of nuclear power
9:33 am
generation. let's fast forward 25 years in 2011 an earthquake and c nami struck the coast of japan, killing mold in 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, making nuclear theme almost as safe as solar or wind. that's because boning fossil fuels release is toxic particles, but damage our lungs and haunts the appalachian they cause kills an estimated $8000000.00 people a year comparing clear and coal is like comparing planes and cars. while we obsess
9:34 am
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. you compare the clarion this with all the old in industry. certainly you are a fossil fuels. ah, the number of that that, that, that it is is the minimum mix 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 bigger 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
9:35 am
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 mind by 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 offers, 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 of 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, germany's 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
9:36 am
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 clinician, the be quicker if it differently. but hope you really think of video also not only in germany, but this is maria. 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 added that group now very friendly with prolonging you can. but as a cat overreact is more dangerous and need to be retrofitted to stay safe. and what
9:37 am
about the nuclear waste? spent fuel rods stay radioactive at 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, are malcolm correct recovery for europe. this is, have a camp on a boat in 2018 trying to stop a nuclear plant. he fails, could end up dumping radioactive waste into the ocean. nuclear waste is something even nuclear advocate. so sometimes on shore, 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 argued farm for, you know, that is really big. a real big chunk. the industry solution for nuclear waste to
9:38 am
bury it deep, underground, isolating the waste inside rockwell 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 mom from pa cba, the company that designed the facility. but if the site perceive a 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,
9:39 am
the 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 and the distant future. but even they agree, the idea needs research. the world already has half a centuries worth of nuclear waste to deal with. so what does this all mean for us? do 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, habitats and the search food have drawn them closer to humans with the noise of the
9:40 am
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 they come inside and still stuff from michelle separately? ending lau. they devour everything they can find. mean we're, i'm here in the town, there's no natural food source for them. 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 been similar problems to humans of diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity,
9:41 am
one the evening rush hour in luxury is a perfect opportunity for these long tailed mc cocks. 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 tones 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 and look blurry as a result. hordes of monkeys rampaging through the streets,
9:42 am
fighting full scraps of food and defending their patches. residence or feeling increasingly terrorized by the gangs of marauding because small business own is in particular as 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. oh boy, oh my head buyer down here. 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 aren't real about, they still scare some of them away. the store next door has the same problem, patty, pon and suits him 20 wrong cell comp. hans. the business has been in the family for
9:43 am
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. the older ones listen to me when i tell them off. and i like them went away, but the young ones are cheeky jolla. yeah, i don't like them anymore. 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,
9:44 am
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 a b, b bowler, mom in the town, there's no natural food source for them because there's no fruit growing anywhere along the oklahoma. they knew hemmed on people for their food and 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
9:45 am
them live and abandon 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 cops. this vendor didn't manage to sell everything. so he let them have the left of his resign. well, what i feel sorry for them. they have nothing and they are part of the 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 them, a cox, and they'd be properly fed. but unfortunately, there are delays in its construction,
9:46 am
and the plan is proving expensive. neighbors are also protesting. they don't want monkeys living on their doorstep. veterinarian lo, 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. but once i bought matt, hi marilyn i, how many are obese? mother? how high and therefore, unless he nimble, when they crossed the streets, i put a number like hasty about being one. but in general they have, i only have the same problems as human habit though. and as the upon my d n, i 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 the plan is to reduce their numbers that
9:47 am
way, but it's an uphill battle, and i don't her side ma'am. no one thing taken out half a morales are my come. we need a sterilization quota of 75 percent reliable. 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 the been happening. and what this le cox 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,
9:48 am
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 rick shanty homes right steeply 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 bond of these open spaces, gained new significance during the cove at 19 pandemic, and c, fiona hill, federal. it's a place on the roof of a house made with construction materials and lab lavonda. it's going to populate 2 areas to plot on the is a socialist pace where people celebrate birthdays. 15 years, birthdays, honeywell activities. they take place here. oh, got him now. i was ill up there, put them on the holes. he pulls memories in gars after highways most trish are
9:49 am
feeling nada from media love and comp. barbados. the roof tops became the base for the project. sidney plotted banda 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 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 15 i. there are children fields and documentary phones. one important field which deals with the fight against oppression love, but as your own up or last year when i get them in b, this is for a population that is leaving through trauma. i'm going through the process of
9:50 am
morning and sadness that he stay i'll so this car, this week left by been a swell of social situation. either significant, all of that was projected in to our plaque. amanda seen him a screen, which is what welcomed by the community. i generated i warner media. there was only 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. we speak with our neighbors who are watching that right away and we move to their house and sit together daniel by phone because they had a big balcony with a good view and my wife had 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
9:51 am
a c a. and now we're more integrated. my company, our com again, this is for the pandemic intensify the social problems which plague petrie 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 hamano. 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 with our home and and without future dante nor to yamaha finance. and on not d. n. a muffled doodle rapid are more than welcome we aspire to half
9:52 am
a more humane community with a barrel to gauge, shown with a barrier between your audio help on what people feel used. hold on the line 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 game brought than a shift them for the people normally for the community, for children, for kate, take care school and for parents. senior panel represent vanderbilt panel, the sinner, platter band, a team drive their equipment to one of the poorest parts of the giant settlement. where their excited audience awaits. this screening is for the children who hardly get to visit the real cinema. donors have signed up to provide food for kids who frequently go hungry. wardrobe fired ok, sick out of many parents are without work. they can't take care of their family. also for media, there are children who go to bed without eating or mayor for long age on the when i
9:53 am
started coming here, they told me glenda. i've got 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 flip, 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 co my year in the
