oh says that dang, leaders can't construct or more than just buildings. he is the son of jewish holocaust survivors. working that i was able to build you, he's in his architecture is a celebration of democracy and architect of emotional. daniel starts december 25th on d, w. o o m, ah, almost 10 months ago, russian president vladimir putin launched a full scale invasion of ukraine. since then, the russian army has committed war crimes and attacked civilian infrastructure. the

invasion also wrecked ukraine's economy, but ukrainians are not backing down. instead, they're finding new ways to persevere. and today's episode, we will explore how ukraine's tech seen as managing to thrive despite the war. and these are the other topics in today's episode of made d w's business magazine. making the switch can france become a leader in wind energy making a monopoly? are farmers dependent on feed companies and making a statement? why would could tar appear in any world cup commercials? the warren ukraine has entered a new phase during the past few months. the ukrainian army has re conquered several 1000 square miles of territory after a string of military defeats. russia has now trying to pull the plug on ukraine's electricity supply strikes on the countries. energy grid are meant to leave

millions of people without electricity and heating and freezing winter temperatures . attacks on ukraine's power also pose a big challenge to the countries tech sector. the city of car keith close to the russian border is a hot spot for the growing industry motto, chin scott went to find out how high tech businesses are succeeding. regardless. natalia said omaha would normally be in ha, he's in east in ukraine. that's where some members of her team of program has, and software developers is still working. but because of the war she's now working in krakow and neighboring poland. before getting down to what she starts every day by checking in on her colleagues, english crane the with the all keep doing our best we understand that we have to outperform, to make sure that the are are successful and be able to support

our country. yeah. yeah. i just wanted to show you a one of best friends of these days like, oh my god, i have the same. i don't have electricity right now, but the, the generator is working, the startling is working well. so heads like chance for all of the guys to go to the office to recharge the mobile devices. so there was almost no log lawson, but there is some problems in here with alex tracy t. and what are, for example, at my home, but there is no problem in office. so out by the game, stew, or his to keep on today and yesterday. all so here is a light. here's the coffee. so we keep going and with steel resilience stronger like old ukrainians, who this is ha,

he's shortly after the 1st rush and ass strikes back in march. much of the city is still without power or phone service. telecom employees now working from abroad are doing their best to help people still that are not our main problem at the moment has to do with power outages and a loss of connectivity. we can't always reach our staff. most of our people are working in her keith and we just don't know if they're safe or not to. oh joseph, yes. oh alice. strict javert has been back to the city 3 times to help on her 1st visit, she saw what the russian forces had done to her own home. these images were taken in may of this year at her house in a suburb of hi keith. several months later,

she returned after the final battles and the withdrawal of the russian forces. all that was left of her home was a burnt out shell. her colleagues now have the tough job of repairing, destroyed internet cables. because there's no power they often have to use battery operated flashlights to do their work. the internet is a link with the outside world. and that's crucial both for hi here. residents and companies still operating from their protective helmets and bullet proof vests are now part of the technicians basic equipment. before the war, ukraine was home to a thriving

h t sector, employing some 250000 people. the sector is still strong, even manage and growth of 23 percent this year despite the war. ukraine's hospitals are among the beneficiaries of the tech sector. we in west and the name a lot in the friends of congress, so we benito harkey. we id be within it more than one, be younger, even us. and we continue to do it. back in krakow, poland software developer, natalia said omaha has found an apartment. her children own school and they're learning polish. and yet they're keenly aware of being refugees. son did not express to lot. oh i so he grew up over night and uh for daughter it was a big stress. her magic question was why why?

what me did wrong. like what i did wrong, why i lost everything. why? i don't have my friends the all come a snail straight. a smell, always having a home with him on the back. we all are having a small piece or you claim. hark you. like i have been kind of on my back. even though i'm here. i'm still in hurricane phone, still in the ukraine. winter has arrived in germany. cold temperatures mean that most homes have turned on their heating by now. but the more we heat, the lower germany's gas reserve levels become in the past that was in front of mine for most people. well, that drastically changed when russia stop delivering gas to germany. i visited the

country's deepest gas reserve to understand where our heating will come from this winter. them. germany's gas storage facilities never attracted much attention before. now they're at the center of public debate and for good reason, the countries energy security depends on them this winter. for german businesses like this break factory in bavaria production is dictated by the levels of germany, gas reserves that the major thing. hm. we, we check that almost every day and we're it's, it's how we run our business. you know, we need it without gas. the ovens here stay cold, the gas go through the yellow line right through here, into the oven. and then a it here. inside the brake. you can see the fire, it fires, the brick. so the brick burn full reserves, ensure steady brake production,

even during the winter months when germany imports less gas than it uses just a few kilometers from the brake factory. and voy, fuss back lies. germany's deepest gas storage facility. it's a porous rock gas storage. what's above ground is just the tip. the most important part lies 3000 meters below there. the gas stored in porous rock. that's millions of years old. it soaks up the gas like a sponge impermeable rocks and water around it. act like a natural barrier and prevent leaks. the gas levels are closely monitored at all times. some way to can talk to them today. we're at 99.2 percent. it takes about a $150.00 days to fill or empty the storage facility, referring between with leon,

it's not just a long process, it's also a complicated one. and all begins with a big pipe. your comp, this guys, this is where the gas come in during the summer and where it goes out during the winter. swift van dyke in the past is gas. the gas mainly came from russia one. but now i'm in our readings. tell us that the gas isn't coming from russia any more on . it's either coming from norway or from l. n. g in 2000. what beacon would have when a lead sheet. in order to squeeze as much as possible into the storage facility. the gas is compressed, meaning these giant machines crank up the pressure of before the gas can be injected into the ground. pressurizing the gas causes the to heat up, so it's cooled before continuing on into the underground reservoir. yuki did or it goes 2100 meters below ground, yet it then after long travel through the pipes,

the gas arrives at its destination. thus, if the gas, this is the gas storage. if this is the rock that forms the actual rows of war, it has a lot of internal surface area because it's so porous as a sea of gas is stored in these pores at high pressure and viewed as gospel wouldn't. ok, when demand outstrips daily supply, gas is withdrawn from this rock reheated. and d pressurized then and leaves the facility this way. the voice aspect gas storage could supply up to $300000.00 households with gas for one year. most of the time, do we call the uneasy question in the bank of my mind is what if we have a really cold winter? because if it's really cold, it will have problems and when the reservoir is full, that could see flames go out and factories close. despite germany, state of the art storage facilities,

gas is still an essential source of energy in many european countries. but if the e wants to become climate neutral by 2050, we have to reduce or dependency on fossil fuels. france is one of the countries facing that challenge until now it has relied on nuclear energy. but many of the countries, outdated reactors had to be shut down. now president, my call wants to boost renewables. france of meant to profit from the winds, blowing along of 5000 kilometer coastline. they own energy company, e. d. f normally runs france nuclear plants. now, of supporting offshore wind projects, we had to look at how france is shifting gears. mila was having been suspected basket. a recent press trip to this construction site displayed what could be one solution to future energy crises, floating offshore wind energy. the companies developing this pilot project are investing 300000000 euros. in 2023,

the wind farm will be towed to the site. 17 kilometers off the coast. lemme it's powers limited equal to just a 40th of a nuclear reactors capacity, of course. but floating offshore wind energy is a bearer of hope. unlike existing renewables, it could produce electricity. 247 them failure on their voicemail. traditional offshore wind farms can only be constructed in washes the up to 50 meters deep. the floating platforms can be installed further away from the coast where the wind is stronger. these wind farms could be teacher reaching carbon neutrality back up. but frances, taking bids to construct 3 commercial floating offshore wind farms and that 10 times the size of the pilot project, this economist agrees, floating offshore wind energy is promising. yet questions and challenges abound.

leo and is up in the of france should try to take the lead in this market. it's lagging behind in terms of bottom fixed offshore wind farms also due to legal challenges. it's a question of not losing face all. that's good and even when, but it's not clear yet which technology will when the day, there are several technical solutions in the market, and a lot of steel is needed to construct the platforms. we're finding that steel might prove a bottleneck when they viewed the mother of france will have to compete with other countries such as portugal and scotland, which are also eyeing floating offshore wind energy. in any case, the project developers are determined to become an important player in the market here or broad, a profit prepared, yellow france as well positioned, the la la la bidding for commercial projects is underway. we're hoping to be awarded these industrial projects in the mediterranean sea and off brittany hill near seattle. but we're also looking at market, such as the us, china,

and tie one that you why? the global potential for this technology is estimated at $3500.00 gigawatts, which represents as many nuclear reactors. but that won't be any time soon. frances, 1st commercial floating offshore wind farms won't produce electricity until at least 2030. how can we feed the 8000000 people living on this planet for the world's largest agri, business, monsanto? the answer is genetically modified seeds. according to the company lab design crops, and herbicides will protect the world from famine. one of their most controversial products is the weed killer round up for years round up has been the focus of losses because of its potential health risks. but that's not the only issue sowing seeds of doubt about monsanto. for thousands of years,

farmers free bred preserved and shared seats. but then agriculture radically changed. in the 20th century, farmers got new machines, chemicals, and lots me feet. and big companies stepped in. these major players dominate the market to be one of them had a special role in shaping more than not great culture, especially in the u. s. now, owned by german, one national buyer was funded was one of the giants of the business to turn seed into property and farmers into submissive customers to understand how they did it. it's important to know the history during the vietnam war one santa was one of the largest suppliers of the new edge and orange for the u. s. military. 50000000 leaders of this definitely herbicide was trying to get trees and tropical foliage that provided cover for the competitors. not only do this areas remain contaminated, millions have been poisoned by the chemical. next month hunter turned the attention to peacetime whip, killing,

developing the blog buster habit sight roundup it. hit shells in the $970.00 s and became the company's cheap profit driver ah, run down kills the root kills that. we'd round up kills thanks to its main component cliff a said, but it ended up killing so well that it also killed farmers crops. so they could only sprayed before planting seats after the harvest. but what if the receipts that could tolerate thrown up that's home and found who stepped into the sea business? in 1996, they rolled up round up ready, div receipts that were genetically modified to be immune to gleeful sate. who wouldn't buy into that? it was like magic to talk to farmers at that number. marco elmore is an environmental historian at the higher state university to spend a decade working on this book about monsanto. weeds almost immediately began developing resistance around and you kind of have this cycle in this genetically

engineered scene system now over using a chemical, which by the way, it's very profitable for the company that's selling it. and we have to do something else that changed agriculture forever. they patent him, the technology behind the seats. this meant they could dictate the way farmers use them. monsanto created a system that they controlled by 2008. my father had bought 50 international seed firms. the market power of monsanto and similar companies was growing more and more today. 90 percent of corn upland cotton employ being from the u. s. a. produce was patent and seat mon font, the order the buyer is the biggest supplier. the big promise behind genetically engineered crops like those from an santo, higher yield for farmers. but in 2016, the national academy of sciences published a 600 page dozier on the effects of g cross from the us. scientists found little

evidence that such crops actually lead to higher yields. what has been going on, is the use of monsanto supposed to child cliff a sight to move your hair besides, globally. this to maps of the us showed the amount of round up being sprayed on the dark or the colors, the more is being used. meanwhile, what's been going down is the variety of foods on our plates. there are over 50000 edible plans in the world, but we mostly rely on june 15 corn wheat and the rise of the major hits. the modern cri cultural system, created this 30 zation for awful companies owning this. you get to choose with farmers girl, and how and that determines what we eat, planting the same varieties also makes crops mobile neural to drop in disease. the climate crisis is only making it worse. it's a different story with traditional seats. if you want to look for something that

salary hash mighty conditions, especially now that we emphasize on climate change, you can always go back to that i've not been elected. this is the medical den. she's a plan geneticist at the international crops research institute of the same airy, tropics, the one thing they also do, because they, they just absorb all sorts of trade or land from anywhere. and so the, every day they're very durable. the more different seats we plant, the higher the chances of finding the ones that canada up to extreme weather. for example, in just one region in south east india, find his discovered almost 400 varieties of neglected crops species. and one of them were 6 traditional local rights varieties, the deal better with drought, faulty soil and flooding strength compared to commercial turnitin. luckily, even when traditional seats are gone from the field, they're not always gone gone. we have them in places like thief,

$1.17 seed banks around the world for the untapped potential of traditional feats. probably the most famous you bank point is the coolest looking one is this one in norway. it stores over a 1000000 seats samples from across the world and the chill permafrost conditions make sure this little fellows are preserved for centuries. the system works like a bank, the deposit their own samples, the bank, in this case, the government of norway owns the facility. for example, brazil has thousands of super hear some of the seats were rescued only because indigenous communities and traditional farmers kept them. they were, we grow all for has drastically changed if the large corporations who have benefited at the expense of everyone else. farmers have got hooked on chemicals and last ownership of the seats and consumers miss out on so many flavors and new trends. so it's time to ask ourselves how come to grow for better this time to everyone? this photo garnered

a lot of attention during the world cup. germany, soccer players covered their mouths ahead of their 1st game. the pose was a reaction to feed us ban of the one love arm band, a symbol of tolerance and diversity. germany's players have faced a lot of criticism since then. some say their focus on political statements prevented a good performance and assault to soccer players who are struggling. the world cup and katara has been a difficult balancing act for sponsors as well. ah, legendary play is powerful emotions and good vibes advertises for the fif, a world cup of pulled out all the stops, but in the added ass. and nike adds, this is host country might as well be invisible. even the added as team bus isn't headed to cutter, but to a generic destination called world cup. western media have been critical of kata

unfaithful. football's world governing body so advertises a carefully skirting the control overseas. in added us is ad campaign beth little to suggest where the megger event is actually taking place. or is there? i did are says that it's official world cup match ball is designed to evoke a cutter. the colors and graphic design on a pearly white bass are inspired by cutters, culture and history for pop. so, but the connection is anything but obvious, added as isn't alone, and it's reluctant to reference cutter. the campaigns of other major sponsors such as nike and coca cola, also avoid mentioning the host country. so one is that certainly the caught har brands the country brand is not one that seen as progressive. it's attitude towards human rights. it's attitude towards l g, b t, q, p, all is not seen as in line with most of the west. so as a result,

these global brands are playing at safe, not wanting to necessarily say that they endorse the category value system. but instead that they support the world cup, ah, but doesn't really have to be this a political, couldn't companies and brands sees this opportunity to stake out that own beliefs and values for diplomacy? which is what these brands are. the thing is that such a thing as not necessarily wanting to get into a deep conflict and to us are cross cultural wars if you like. but instead to be more silent. and in doing so, you attract a wider group of, of customers. in contrast, germans supermarket chain reva chose to take a stand of the fee for threatened to impose sanctions on teams. he was the one love

on band promoting our t v t. he writes, reva decided to forego it's advertising, right. so what the germans think about companies and brands that take a political stand position. good us is a little like a stand, but i don't want them to withdraw because of something as trivial as an arm band. so i'm excited with up in addition is of course her, and i do think that major brands like addie das and nike should take a stand. they have a huge market and should take advantage of that. young people who buy a lot of brand name products. so who are influenced by the big brands? will notice where the katara is depicted with a positive or a negative connotation must be a positive negative connotative issue. them originally, they should take a clear stand for human rights. 2 additional companies all just want to sell their product, so i think it should be up to them name you want us. when it comes to diversity and human rights companies don't always practice what they preach. but avoiding the

question altogether is no longer an option. hon. guide that's all from this episode of made d w as business magazine i. malvina, thanks for watching and take care. ah ah ah ah ah ah, with
