1:30 am
ah, what are sports all about with scoring? we say they were about giving up sports like every weekend on d w. ah ah ah. ah, no more gas from gas, from germany is filing for an energy divorce from russia,
1:31 am
but on its own, the country doesn't have enough resources to satisfy its needs. instead, germany was find new energy relationships. now in the movie us desert could bring in augusta fresh air and these are the other topics on this week's edition of mate . who owns the arctic a cold war as heating up the north co. how to build a unicorn and anita start up scene is booming and how to master the job hunt tricks to overcome your fear of applications. namibia is serious about the environment. it was the very 1st country in africa to an environmental protection to its constitution. today, 44 percent of the country's land is under conservation, including the mid desert. in the mid comes from the nama language and means free space. now that free space will be home to one of the world's most significant renewable energy projects. wind turbines and solar panels are meant to shoot out
1:32 am
from the sand and provide millions of households with clean energy, including those in germany. me a team from the german energy company and a target owner research tool at our national park in southern namibia. they're looking for the best locations to erect wind turbines. as part of the 10000000 euro energy project where we are right now. some of the world's best on shore wind, we know is, is really well cloth resource. 15 kilometers to the east. we have a solar sites which is some of the world's best seller. so within a very close proximity, we have very good renewables. namibia has designated an area a 100 kilometers long and 80 kilometers wide for the project. from 2025, some 600 wind turbines and 2 soda farms will deliver as much energy as 7 nuclear power plants. the water from the nearby ocean will be pumped here by pipeline.
1:33 am
it will be used to produce hydrogen, which will be shipped to germany for its energy supply. hydrogen can be used to fuel buses and cars. power, chemical plants, smelt steel, or simply to heat homes and businesses. aside from nearby germany also has plans the mega projects and other countries, including in or socratic ones. altogether, it's investing in 10 different countries. have hundreds. we have trade ties with autocratic states, where there's no press freedom and we have to deal with that. at the same time, we will still have to solve the energy transition and climate crisis. in this context, you always have to be prepared to compromise and target the firm and managing the
1:34 am
largest project. based in northeast germany, it's a pioneer in the wind power industry. more than a 1000 wind turbines, i'm wanted to check and talk was the 1st company to produce hydrogen using wind power at the pilot project in the ok mark region informs it's work in namibia and elsewhere. that's what we do and don't recall what the scope of what we're doing here in the ok. mark it size is very much comparable to what we're planning to create in the media applies from with some label gone in the fall. i thought this area in the ogre mark is also comparable to the area and maybe at were hydrogen is said to be produced. oh, the new may be in town. a lot of it is a reminder. if germany is colonial, past,
1:35 am
german troops ran concentration camps here, as part of a genocide against the herero and nama peoples. despite the traumatic history, many residents still support the new project. so people are quite excited with this project that it's coming to units of because they see a lot of development coming into town. they see a lot of employment coming to town. they say low cost electricity and anything else . so um, i would say people doesn't have much critical views, but in the back of our heads also we think we hope that it's not up. you know, it's not a corruption thing. everyone will actually benefit from the project around a lot of it's thousands live in poverty. they have electricity and water, but it's expensive. the equivalent of for euro cents for 10 liters is often too
1:36 am
much like for this resident to the machine. no love to discuss what it is and he shows the money you flow soon. you will lose little 0. he lives in this moment undercut. we want to supply both additional electricity and water from our project to the people of namibia and also the town of litter. it's currently house to bring water in from a very far distance. and we can overbuild our water purification and desalination facility to provide water to the town. both europe and africa could stand to gain immensely from projects like this. the world is looking to greener pastures. and with that, the golden age of gus is meant to come to an end. but in reality, governments around the world are still craving, fossil fuels, owning them means independence from other countries. and so the digging and
1:37 am
drilling for every drop of oil and gas continues everywhere in the world. our next report takes us from the movie us desert to the north pole. there are rising temperatures are melting the ice, which has unearthing fossil fuels. now a new cold war is heating up in the arctic. ah, it's been untouched for millions of years. lying deep below the arctic ice. the future of our warming planet depends on what we decide to do with it. it could be extremely valuable and extremely dangerous. below the ice lie the fortune in unexploded oil and natural gas resources. and everyone wants the piece of the melting arctic china used your graphically or via arctic state. united states is an arctic nation. these restrictions from carol stop us from this process just from exploring the arctic. and it's not just about oil and gas. the melting ice also
1:38 am
opens up shipping roots, fishing grounds and land. so who are these rivals? and who does the arctic really belong to? more than half of the arctic coastline is russian territory. 2000000 people in there about half the population of the entire arctic region. then there's the u. s . with alaska greenland, which is part of denmark, canada, iceland and norway. international law gives these countries the right to control natural resources and exclusive economics ends up to 200 nautical miles from their coast lines. the arctic region beyond those boundaries, including the north pole, is agreed to be a common heritage of all mankind. that means it should be held entrust for future generations, protected from exploitation by nations or corporations. but countries can apply for larger exclusive economic zones if they can prove that the shallow c off the
1:39 am
coastline goes out farther than 200 kilometers. no way russia, canada and denmark have already done that. presumably for when the melting ice opens up all those economic opportunities in the arctic, it's shaping up to be oil and gas. money. just how much money can be seen in russia's largest protected wilderness. the great arctic nature reserve and the massive oil project, their vosta oil. rutter hopes to extract 6000000000 tons of crude and 2 trillion cubic meters of gas. here, it's plant new airports, marine terminals, and 800 kilometers of pipelines. that's assuming the arctic has melted enough to ship out the oil via the northern sea root rushes invasion of ukraine has, however, put a dent in these plans. the vasa project has lost investors and access to with an oil
1:40 am
and gas tech and services. it might well be delayed or scaled back, but others are stepping in. the arctic is also part of china's ever expanding belton road initiative via what's been done, the polar silk road. the belgian road strategy is building a vast network of railways, highways, and ports to allow china to transport goods and resources around the world. recently, some arctic players have slowed or stopped. oil and gas development. canada prohibits offshore oil drilling in marine protected areas and greenland band oil exploration and 2021. the u. s. has suspended oil and gas leases in alaska's arctic national wildlife refuge. but pressure is growing to drill here to secure energy supplies. and what about the people living in the arctic? their land is not only at the center of geopolitical tensions. it's also melting
1:41 am
under their feet. it's been our real transition for us. the climatic changes, the warm water blob, their harmful algo blue army. they're all conspiring to, to impact is the basic production of the bearing see for the 500000 indigenous people of the arctic. it's a real threat. the income culture and traditions depend on an ecologically intact arctic habitat. toxic substances from oil and gas exploitation can collapse such fragile ecosystems. when absorbed by plankton implants, they can poison the food chain. for example, this little guy is the fattest of the arctic coupons, and fat is vital to survival in the cold. if those copy pots fail to breed, less fat is transported up through the food chain to fish and beds to seals. whales, polar bears,
1:42 am
and humans. just tiny amounts of oil in the sea can crash copy pot egg hatching rates without copy pods. the food chain is seriously disrupted between 20132019 there was a 25 percent increase in marine traffic in the arctic. most ships use heavy fuel oil band in the antarctic, but somehow allowed in the arctic when this ridiculously dirty fuel spills impala waters. it's especially damaging when cold oil is more viscous and doesn't break up into small droplets which all the grating bacteria could consume. heavy fuel oil creat another problem not only in the arctic but over the entire world. it's black carbon which is produced by burning fossil fuels, especially heavy fuel oil and ships. black carbon particles are not only a direct health risk in places like the arctic. they blanket the white snow and ice
1:43 am
and make them absorb the funds heat. instead of reflecting it. so the snow and ice melt faster. so what to do? there are many committed groups, local, national, and international, and jose who are promoting sustainable operation in the arctic. then there's the arctic counsel, the leading body for corporation and coordination among the arctic states and indigenous peoples. the arctic council promote sustainable development and environmental protection in the region by providing assessments and clear recommendations on action to be carried out by the arctic states. but they are only recommendations. it's up to each state which action is taken. russert war and ukraine has disrupted the councils work, but other arctic states and communities are working together without russia. one successful example of international cooperation was the central arctic ocean
1:44 am
fishing moratorium. find in 2021 by the u. s. russia, china the you and several more countries. ready this multilateral agreement takes a legally binding precautionary approach to protect an area from commercial fishing . before such fishing has even begun. ready but there's no sign yet of a similar law to protect the arctic from oil and gas drilling. one way to address that should be some kind of global front where projects like that to be could be offset where it's like, hey, russia. how about not? i'm extracting ireland gas resources out of the ground, and there will be some kind of compensation fund that every country in the world will pay into, depending on, you know, some complicated formula. while countries hesitate to join forces, some major businesses are already moving away from oil and gas, a growing number of re insurers among them aviva al young and uniquely have
1:45 am
committed to stop or restrict underwriting for new oil and gas projects. it takes an average of 16 years before new oil and gas fields reach maximum production. so putting money into arctic oil and gas projects is becoming more of a gamble for banks to as in the near future renewable energy may well be much more profitable. the world's economic outlook as clouding over lay officer, spreading through the american tech sector in india. more than 100000 industry workers were fired. last year. the tech boom is over for now, but not everywhere. indonesia, as economy is fucking the trend, it start up. thine is booming. since the pandemic the country gained 9 new unicorns, or start ups or the over $1000000000.00, the e commerce platform took a pedia is one of them. we met with leon, tennis alpha edison, the man behind the unicorn. oh,
1:46 am
