o d w for mines in leo, nor do da vinci's, mysterious masterpiece as perhaps the greatest leonardo masterpiece of the collection of the louvre and no, it is not the mona lisa is the virgin of the rocks. was there another symbolic meeting to this beautiful painting that perhaps we just don't understand? search for answers starts february 10th on the w. ah ah ah, no more gas from gas from germany is filing for an energy divorce from russia, but on its own, the country doesn't have enough resources to satisfy its needs. instead,

germany must find new energy relationships. now namibia 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 is 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 at 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 from the sand and provide millions of households with clean energy,

including those in germany. a team from the german energy company and a target owner research tool at sal at national park in southern namibia. they're looking for the best location to erect wind turbines. as part of the 10000000000 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 sailor. 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. water from the nearby ocean will be pumped here by pipeline.

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 in other countries, including in autocratic ones. altogether, it's investing in 10 different countries. there have hundreds. we have trade ties with autocratic states, where there's no press freedom. 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

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 take an a 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 okay. mark it size is very much comparable to what we're planning to create in the media applies from within both in w a from the label gone in the fall. i thought this area in the ogre mark is also comparable to the area in namibia. we're hydrogen is set to be produced. oh, then it may be in town of. lot of it is a reminder if germany is colonial past. 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, 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 i would say people doesn't have much political views, but in the back of our heads also, we think we hope that it's not a, you know, it's not a corruption thing. everyone will actually benefit from the project around it of its thousands live in poverty. they have electricity and water, but it's expensive. the equivalent of 4 euro cents for 10 liters is often too much like for this resident to the machine. now low

to put this work up with it. and he shows the money you flow to in your lives. 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 drilling for every drop of oil and gas continues everywhere in the world. our next

report takes us from namibia desert to the north pole. their rising temperatures are melting the ice, which is unearthing fossil fuels. now a new cold war is heating up in the arctic. ah, it's been untouched for millions of years. line 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 lies a fortune in unexploded oil and natural gas resources. and every one, once a piece of the melting arctic china used your graphically or via arctic state united states, 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

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 live 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 coastline. 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 their

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 and russia's largest protected wilderness, the great arctic nature reserve, and the massive oil project there. 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 and gas heck 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 under their feet. it's been

a real transition for us. the climatic changes, the warm water blob, their harmful algal blue. ah, 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, 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 and make them absorb the funds heat. instead of reflecting it. so the snow and ice

melt faster. so what's to do there? many committed groups, local, national, and international, and jose who are promoting sustainable corporation in the arctic. then there's the arctic council, the leading body for cooperation 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. russia's war on 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 fishing moratorium signed in 2021 by the u. s. russia, china,

the you and several more countries. this multilateral agreement takes a legally binding precautionary approach to protect an area from commercial fishing . before such fishing has and begun. but there is 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 fund where projects like that could be, could be offset where it's like, hey, russia. how about not? i'm extracting oil and gas resources out of the ground, and there will be some kind of compensation fund that every country in the world will pay in june, depending on 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, allianz, and unit 3 have 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 october, 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 offs or 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 in the need as economy as fucking the trend. it start up, fee 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. ah, ah,

the only days we only have to fix the marketplace. now we have already done goods and we also have financial division. we also have logistics. the last one is unique and specific thing and my name is mountain of the sun. i am to 5 chairman and co founder of our region is that you want to create a clinical system where anyone can far and business and discover mean as a customer. i want to go for anything both on the phone or me just william and me. what of us we came from the small c p and when we were working in japan, we were amazed by what happened specifically in order in general, indic subpoena. because if we have skills, you can marry but living, but it's really, it's not happening. if you are in

a small city in the militia for, for challenges, is that the family that has a big miss me personally, we don't know if i speak of being or set up a business, but we just got good. the 2nd telling this is financing business. early days i think many people believe that there will be acknowledge you based company that will be boring and international young people. and then the one i think, felon, also a challenge, a lot of workers, a lot of good with the work in the consulting company, banks and all state on companies whose shoes the, the 1st order that we thought was

a t shirt p. so saying that we are not afraid when we last into 92 months or 3 months before there's always a pack in marriott hotel. so i did a lot of people, especially on the internet. it isn't really been saying that we are not afraid. so we so stand together, we are not afraid. ah, i think they just thought of ecosystem are amazing. i saw a lot of our good fall nurse, lot of great ideas, this big old oceana. that can support us palmer courses. some are getting better like, well, just speaks like a famous la banks. not even government or

mil of psycho i trifle. oh, at least 3 times a week later. i do thought green in the morning. sort of help me to stay healthy, helped me to stay fit and have you helped me through those people in the 5th of august, 8th, i have 2 tips or suggestions for my fellow entrepreneurs. first, building a solace and that really, really solve problems is very important. i think 2nd calibration sound for me, we cannot move things along. and also my experience in the lab radio is better that

we are building bridges. we unlock building walls apart from the tech sector. many other industries are short of workers at the moment. in germany, for example, there is a lack of nurses, kindergarten teachers, and social workers. so to prime time for job seekers. but sending off an application is no easy feat. everything hinders on a well written cover letter. christina becker shows us how that's done in germany. me, hey, you. is that your job application? show me your cover letter. dear sir, or madam? seriously. how about your resume? with where is your photo?

okay, we have a lot of work to do one thing, you don't get a 2nd chance when it comes to 1st impression. your cover letter is the 1st thing i recruiter 6. so take the time you need to formulated correctly. why exactly? are you the right person for the job? why do you want to work for that company? with what sets you apart from the competition careful. don't use any platitudes. ah, and don't just copy and paste. every cover letter has to be tailored to each potential employer and don't address people in

a general or inanimate way. if there is no name in the job description, you have to do your research and find the name of the person in charge. the chose that you're interested in, if you're not sure, you can use the name of the person in charge of human resources. make sure you're right that you and look forward to a job interview. and don't forget to sign it. try to fit the cover letter onto one page. ah, this is the part where you can really brag about all your extra special job experience. your fantastic education and other skills, like foreign languages and software. no. your resume should be ordered on to chronologically. it should start with the most recent and go back in time to

your education. try to avoid empty gaps, aneurism, or at least be ready to explain them. i. what were you doing in spain for 6 months? oh, ah, no, it wasn't a vacation. you did a language course to remember? yes, at the very top you put your personal information and don't forget to include a professional photo. no, not a selfie from spain. it's not a hard and fast rule, but recruiters like to see one anyway. and it's one more way to our, to the competition. no matter how great you are, the resume shouldn't be more than 2 pages long.

a potential employer wants to see some on perfect for the job description, the that person apart from the cover letter and your resume. you can also provide references your grades and other proof of your qualifications. stay consistent. use the same font settings at the same heading for the entire job publication. remember, check everything one last time before you send. just one spelling mistake could rune all your efforts and cost you the job with someone else. check it for you to. for eyes are better than to oh, so you didn't need to use that paper. most people can apply for jobs online, even in germany. that makes it easier to send out more than just one job with.

keep going and don't give up. even if you get pummeled with rejections, if you haven't gotten an answer within 4 weeks, contact the company and remind them you are still there. you can do back via email or on the phone. good luck with. and that wraps up this edition of me. t w's, business magazine. remember you can find all of our reports, a, d, w dot com slash mate. you can also check out more business stories on the d, w. news, youtube channel. we have a whole range of content for you there until next time for me and the team, it's good bye and take care. ah
