which show its determination to promote an alternative vision of the world order closer to home. europeans want china to help rain in russian aggression against ukraine. china is russia economic lifeline. and at the end of march chinese president, she's paying me the high profile visit to moscow. spain has pressed she to meet with his ukranian counterpart as well, so far to no avail. others want to prod beijing harder. oh, china continues to interact with proteins. war will be a determining factor for you. china relations going forward. as a permanent member of the security council, china has a responsibility to safeguard the principles and values that lie at

the heart of the un charter. and china has a responsibility to play a constructive role in advantages and bouncing a just peace. beijing has been tight lipped about russia's war, aside from releasing a 12 point piece plan that was dismissed by the west is overly vague and too easy on moscow. the 1st point called for nations to respect territorial integrity and sovereignty, but made no specific demands on russia in regards to its invasion of its neighbor. so far, europe doesn't have much to show for its attempts to influence beijing. european leaders might ask themselves how much more credibility to invest without alienating the u. s. a traditional ally that is doing all it can to isolate china. thank you. under small is from the german marshall fund, think tank. i asked him if chime is actually over ukraine really would determine

the use attitude to its largest trading power, i think will be a large commercial relationship with china, regardless of m, how it handles its relationship with, with russia and its policies towards ukraine. but i think that is going to be one of the strongest messages that's delivered when it comes to significant swipes of the relationship, the political relationship. how hard to go on, the risking or on alignment with, with other powers, particularly with the united states. but with other partners in asia as well. and i think this will have a conditioning effect across the entire relationship. and that message is particularly focused, i think, on concerns right now as well. and particularly off disease visit to russia, that they are seriously contemplating providing lethal aid to put in an artillery ammunition and some, some other weaponry. and so i think that's a real concern on the european side to signal to, to china,

that they shouldn't cross that red line. and if they do, it will lead to a bigger deterioration in europe's relationship with china. and, but i think there aren't very particularly high expectations that china's actually going to do anything constructive or that this is going to be a means of improving the bilateral relationship. i think it's rather well, and i just on that back point than to grade these lectures seemed to be sort of the standard form before people go to china and lots of our european leaders have go gone to china. you deliver a lecture, then you go and do your business deal. so it's, it's almost, it's almost hypocritical. we know you're not gonna change, but we have to say this. now, where's the contract? well, i mean, i think the speech from a sealer on the line was was quite unusual for commission preston or even for our european leader. it was exceptionally stock. it's not something we've heard from them from, from, from either a commission, pressed them in the busts or french preston or

a german chancellor. before i think it was particularly focused on being very clear about where china is now headed on this teaching ping and how europe's relationship it would have to change to the result. i think exactly as he suggest the, the fact that my home is, is taking such a substantial business delegation on this visit does point in another direction. but the strategy that from the line laid out was one in which m as is true for the u. s. as it's true for japan, the will continue to be this very large trade relationship between the 2 sides. but they're going to be more and more areas in which this di risking particularly in areas of high technology and but other forms of dependency on critical materials. and other areas needs to change on, on europe, spot and that's something that will just have to be decided on a european basis is not going to be decided. and by exchanges in beijing. and are we clear what the finger risking means or will look like? well the minimalist version is basically to say look when it comes to the green energy transition, the level of dependence on china full,

rarer critic rule materials, is extreme as is 90 plus percent in various areas. so the needs to be a diversification of sources of supply and in, in all of these, in all of these areas. but that's, and i think that's already something that the issue is, is moving forward on an individual member states moving forward on the harder piece . if this is when it comes to, for instance, an investment in china market dependency on china and whether that's really going to be something that's the european side am, starts to replace it. we've seen over the course of the last year, an expansion of investments from certain key german firms, for instance. and we're going to see various contracts signed and with the french companies during this visit. i think that's going to be the harder thing for the to, for the european side to rest itself away from her. and i think where there's a lot more tension in europe about what that would amount to thank you so much for that that andrew small, my german marshall fund britain is pushing ahead with

a contentious asylum law designed to reduce illegal migration across the english channel. the proposed bill would deny migrants who reached the u. k. on small boats, the right to claim asylum. british authorities also want to deport migrants who arrive illegally to rwanda. i mean, your k is agree to pay france more than half a 1000000000 euros to stop migrants trying to cross the channel. e w 's at lisa louis looks at how those plans are going down with french police and the port city of cali. 40 kilometers from the english coast. these offices have a korean mandate to prevent migrants from crossing the english channel. police patrol in groups of $6.00 to $10.00, they concealing their faces for security reasons. all milk in daylight, i use normal binoculars and infrared once at night. it is remembered of john,

illegal migration across the channel to britain sword last year, with a record 45000 new arrivals, up from 17000 the previous year. to curb that number, britain will supply friends with more money and extra british border police. london plans to deport migrants who do managed to reach british shores back to france for their part french police tries to track down smugglers who supply the boats used by migrants who brought liberally through. they hide their supplies and retrieved them at night. there's been any we patrol a large area of the packed with hiding places where the officers doubt that the new stricter asylum laws on the other side of the channel will deter migrants. though before this all know if you've traveled thousands of kilometers and convert should be c, britain. you're not going to give up toilet or 30 kilometers till the finish line. hundreds of migrants. a sheltering in this camp,

20 road mohammed is one of them. he says he and his brother fled government persecution in sudan, 3 years ago. mohammed's dream is to study medicine in britain and become a doctor. coastal patrols he says, weren't stop him from trying to reach his destination. we did not have a choice 3 going throwing through your bill on the youth you or the old warrant to do for us. it was harder on going to try to do. mohammed's determination is not uncommon, says francesca, more assert. she works for an engineer and believes britons new measures will only increase migrant suffering in calais along also on a did last year. news that illegal migrants in britain would be centered, wanda's sparked panic. all this, at least 2 people took their own lives as a result of see the that the troll has returned from duty to the police station to night they didn't catch any migrants preparing to make the crossing. they show us

a boat they confiscated a few weeks earlier. is the cdc? this was in a smuggler vehicle for phil. i asked her why it would up it's you have with how many migraines fit on a bell like this? at least 50. what is your response to british criticism of french police? they're welcome to do better than that. they don't know what's going on here. they couldn't do any better. even with a lot more personnel, it would still be hard or i'm thinking that's because frances channel coastline is 120 kilometers long. here in cali alone, the coast guard has to keep its eyes on a 30 kilometer stretch. 102 pakistan where i women only bus services opened in the countries that biggest city karachi from any pakistani women

just leaving the house to use public transport is a big step. and they often face sexual harassment from men on overcrowded vehicles . the new pink buses are being seen as a move towards hassle free travel for women. this is how most women in karachi commute a small lumen only section is often occupied by men shoving and pushing our common a fatty uncomfortable and unsafe expedients for millions of women. but these new women only being buses on the roads of could archie, utter relief for many the buses have better safety systems, such as an emergency exit lights installed and old. so security cameras and a one wave fear of less than a quarter for udall is affordable. for most women,

one of the best singers is 2080, to a pharmacist accept or now commutes to her workplace on the ping buses. like, oh, then you are going in this bus. you don't have to worry about, you know, taking care of yourself or your clothes or your things up and you are, you know, a stress free sometimes any are going to launch it and you with and then you have to, you know, there is some anxiety in your head dead or something might happen to you in a reading when you're going into regular both as a bit of this one here, you don't have to worry about. do you think many of the women commuting on the bus have experienced harassment on public transport? my back get a be team lead while i was sitting on a bus and a man sitting behind me was touching me. sorry about that when i called him out. but no one there took a stand for me. at 1st section, sunshine of men entered the women's section. if the buses over crowded, this is one women experience shoving and pushing by men who do it intentionally,

taking advantage of the trouble. but the initiative is still do some one. there are only 19 big buses put a 50 foot on $20000000.00 bp and sexual harassment is a white spread structure. problem. critic, faith. the government should make a foot stood change the attitude of men towards women. the law is there and we just need to somehow encourage people to enforce or to head the government for the law by lodging. the complain unfortunately, because of the social pressure at the bull. ah, that's his idea attaches to it. and most people are reluctant to actually report such matters might fit in still discontinue many women believe the pink, pathetic least a 1st positive step at keeping them safer. so to remind you about top stories at this hour. donald trump has turned himself into face criminal charges

how should people approach them and animal feel make it dawns beyond losses to view the world through cows eyes, while florida's manatees threatened with extinction. what's causing their numbers to dwindle? is something missing. a marine biologist analyzes the water quality in the everglades to find out ah, hello and welcome to to morrow to day the d. w. science show me agriculture may be responsible for some 15 percent of current global warming levels . according to a study by new york's columbia university, it estimates that food production alone could cause the abs climate to warm by almost one degree by the year, 2100. methane is largely to blame. this green as gas is produced in the guts

of ruminant livestock, chiefly cows. we present a farmer his trying to reduce his dairy farms. carbon footprint. christa tooken is a farmer who is constantly trying to improve in elaborate agricultural management process. not just to provide healthy feed for his cattle, but also to improve the quality of the soil underneath that we are grass white, clover red, clover and herbs species. diversification is very important for humans build up. the bacteria don't feed on just one thing. humus building can only work with biodiversity. ah, homeless building is just one part of his elliptic system and the cattle are at the center. twice a day, they move to another paddock with tall grass. and it has to be done at precisely

the right time. the stalks are fresh, juicy food for the animals. everything is coordinated from the size of the area to the number of cattle and time. the grass and the paddock needs to be flattened down but not stripped bare. if i had left them there for just one day longer, they would have eaten all the grasshopper, which might not be a bad thing, but that's not what i want to happen. i want to preserve a mulch layer here. the soil beneath the dead, flattened stalks, is always moist. the cattle contribute to this cycle by using their host to stomp on the grass, which causes the amount of hummus and the soil to increase. then organisms cause the bio mass to decompose, binding with the carbon that plants consumed from the atmosphere via photosynthesis . until the host is turning hummus accumulation into a source of income. christa tuscan has decided to participate in a private certificate trading scheme for each additional ton of c. o. 2,

that he binds, using hummers build up. he will receive 30 euros. the trader sells the certificates to regional companies that advertise their commitment to climate protection. but how is hummus build a measured push lock and lock is ticker. that's why it's measured per field, which is around $2.00 to $4.00. hector's 25 soil samples are taken from a depth of 25 centimeters and measured for g. p. s. i don't know where the samples were taken from, otherwise i would throw a heap of compost on each spot. after 3 years will take more samples from the exact same spots than will know whether humor has accumulated. as my hope you're always ask about a modernist soil is a huge c o 2 reservoir and that means carbon farming has a lot of potential to combat climate change. at the same time, agriculture is also a major c o 2 emitter. the scientists at the tune and institute in brown spike have done the math decry course,

and very biggest sources of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture are nitrogen, nitrogen fertilization, which leads to nitrous oxide, and cattle which emit methane, cattle, and cows and drained pizza oils that used to be pete bogs that are now used as farm land and grass land together. these are mit around 100000000 tons of c o. 2 per year in germany. i and iceland carbon farming with humorous buildup could compensate for 3 to 5000000 tons of this, making it climate neutral, which shows that it's not just enough to build up humus. we also need to address these 3 major sources of greenhouse gas emissions. and fungi pas gus is john cris dot lipkin is doing exactly that using natural feed editors such as the horn pod, clover and rib work planting that grows in his meadows and pastures. he is reducing methane emissions from his cattle. he tries to ensure that as much climate damaging

gas is captured as possible. this straw, for example, collects count the newer in the barn. this maneuver plays a central role in hannah's an soil management. this is our cattle mature, and it's one of the essentials in our humans accumulation was awful. and to convert the maneuver into humorous which causes the bacteria and fungi to proliferate considerably, we can use this compost to inoculate our soil later on. it takes weeks from a new are to become good comp, hearst, the process as labor intensive and time consuming, but it is central to sustainable agriculture. cris dot hood can, hasn't used a plow on his farm since 2018. because breaking up his soil loses humph. in the process, when the compost is ready, then come the next steps that we use this to inoculate the soil and plants which then perform photosynthesis and eliminate carbohydrates from their routes. which

then feed the bacteria and fungi in the compost of to that they can continue to multiply. and that's what creates the humorous most will his conversion be successful? his green yields continue to fluctuate wildly. is, is this cloud up? the light is not clear whether these methods will actually succeed in accumulating humus, exposing farmers to a degree of risk. they have to pay in advance for the human analysis. and then hope that a 2nd analysis, 3 or 5 years later, will actually produce more humus, which the certificates can compensate them for. but that's not a guaranteed that this will actually work best of i missed his act, the swiftly function, yet for christa to can, the certificates are a secondary concern for now. he has also begun to shift the way he practices agriculture because as an organic farmer, he doesn't use any fertilizers made from synthetic minerals. instead he works with

so called under zone crops, plant hybrids that he sots in the greenfield. ah, when the grain matures, it turns green again down here. and when we harvest the grain, what's left is a green lawn once again. so that's why the meadow here become so green later on. this field is also designed to create humming a report from the 1st 3 year period is available, which lists the increases and decreases and hummus plot by plot wherever their slurry we've had a decrease in humans and wherever there's compost. we've had an increase um we've collected 1500 tons of c o 2 using humorous accumulation. i honestly didn't expect that much using compos to in rich soil adjustments that of paid off for this farmer . and for the climate, dick house always do just what they told. no cows

a highly complex social and sent hint beings. even if through other breathing we've transformed them into milt machines with huge at is that can give up to 50 leases of milk per day. house had a mind of their own. they cultivate friendships and have finely tuned fences. so to get along with them, you need to understand them. a young wildlife filmmaker is that a gun. ah mine on this gum and a no person. my name is commander lopez and i'm 19 years old. i'm a wildlife filmmaker and photographer, so i'd like to understand animals better. wild animals interest me as well as photogenic and likable ones like cows. but i'm not quite sure how to approach them as coma. how should i communicate to the cal that i come in pisa? what does it mean when they lowered their head is and how can i politely get

a cow to do something? what does moon mean? i i'm going to an organic farm near blame and to find out these dairy cows belong to a farmer. har ya camina, benito visor is visiting as well. he's going to show me how cow see the world for english one. i'm excited. let's see how cow see the world. lou. okay, here we go. first i bend my head the way a cow does when it graces little if a young. okay. so there's only a very small range that's actually in focus on being the will to long. i'm what we built into the app is a wide field of vision. it's a 30 degree visual focus ahead and ability to estimate distance right and left. but in the periphery, it's very blurry. corresponding to about 30 percent of our visual acuity. this field of vision allows cows grazing and meadows to get their bearings.

but things get more complicated when they're inside their sheds. farmer high a cabinet is going to try out seeing the cow shed the way his cows do. who ship you? young coke dois to smack the cow sticks its head through here because it's curious . so if i try to do that spatially, it's hard for me to figure out height. that's why i'm bent over like this. otherwise i'd bang my head, but i'm having difficulty gauging with here. it's all very blurry by having this panoramic perspective makes it very hard on the trees. others doesn't. i'm vide one only. carla. written here. very sh village finish. okay, how was it? very interesting trying it in the meadow was one thing, another trying it here in the stable cows don't see the world the way we do that. something we need to bear in mind as for how to get cows to go in

a particular direction. that's something to be learned later. first things 1st must been what does move mean will be, where are you or i'm here, or i'm hungry, hold on a couple more. when you've worked with cows a while, if you start to recognize that different mood pitches no longer a move is often one of the many signals of a particular phase in the reading seasons. thousands at once. how do cows communicate between themselves? just with moose new underwear. as of allah, my 3rd or colony, most communication between cows is nonverbal. a bull that is defending its position will show its broadside when people were lower, its head to show off its horns. to demonstrate that it's a threat at night and cold wonder and aqona and spirits of being it's put in. so

it's a dormitory hoof guys mar in the state of harrison's outback. we meet an expert on bovine body language. for could differ. he shows farmers how to deal with their herds, to avoid stress and avoid accidents. today though, he's teaching an amateur me how do i convey that i come in peace, fiscal the st. well, it starts with how you arrive in the meadow. don't ever yell or wave your arms about carol can't recognize fluid movements high. and so if you're at the gate waving your arms around, you'll start to stretch them out for pelham. that is just with us. lynch and asked if left for 2 men and if so, how would they respond to the way i'm behaving now? literally q. ok? well i think your voice is com and the main thing is to keep your movements calm, to eagle, into the fema, her st. oh. i though it wasn't,

i'm going to try and round them up. yeah. let's see if it works up. i'm trying to get the cows moving calmly steadily, the way i've been told, but they're not remotely interested. ah, that's what you did. well, you understood the techniques and went about it in a common steady fashion and didn't try to rush it was super big was associated to the list in the hm. not bad then. but now folk are tipple, has another task, driving the black cows, just the black ones out of the enclosure, the brown ones are supposed to remain inside. ah, 1st of all, they get rounded up. then they're divided into 2 groups. oops,

one stray brown cow strays into the wrong group. we can live with that. so look what we've done with these ones are here. they didn't start to panic because we avoided things getting hectic lives. so what we did was we steered them using their shoulder points, all right, we approached their top vertebrae sideways on so that it turns its head in my direction. i don't, and when i increase the pressure, it'll usually go in the direction that the head is turned towards any sunday. the poke, her growth is in my file in what i love with the coffin. psych cows have a personal zone. if you enter it, the cow will try to get out of your way. so that's how you can steer them. this is where you want the cow to go. imagine a line running sideways from their shoulders and then enter their personal zone behind it and nudge the cow forwards. leave the zone as soon as you can, thereby rewarding the cow. as soon as you crossed the line,

it stops moving. if you stay there, it changes direction. just how close you need to get to it is up to you and the cow as each animal responds differently. ah, farmers aren't the only ones who need to pay attention to cow behavior. if animals get worried, they can pose a bit of a thread, even to passers by. but if you treat cadel respectfully and try to see the world from their perspective, you'll get on just fine. that's what i learned from my day on the farm. biodiversity has probably declining more rapidly than previously thought. meaning

significantly more plants and animal species are threatened. that's the conclusion of a survey of scientists from around the globe headed by the university of minnesota . the said, i found that one in every 3 species could be endangered or extinct by the year. 2100. 1 species that's already under threat is the north american manatee. over a 1000, manatees died in florida last year alone. the everglades at the southern tip of florida, the biggest stretch of subtropical wetlands in the us. this fresh water marshland is teeming with life. the everglades are a habitat for a wide range of flora and fauna. the region is home to extraordinary. biodiversity,

including manages their population, had been recovering after years and decline 2 years ago. researchers counting around 8000 of the marine mammals here. but since then, there's been an unprecedented number of managed fatalities for 10 years. paul stewart or captain paul, as he's known around here, has been taking visitors on tours of the everglades. he knows better than any one where to find manatees over her little ripple in the water. but the gentle giant disappears quickly. we go down the canal and come back to to this one. steward steers the boat through the mangrove forest in the western everglades. he thinks we'll see him in this environment truly has not changed in,

in visual for about 40000 years. and he's looking for food, it's low tide manages aren't the only endangered species here. there are now 3000000000 fewer birds in the us and canada than there were 50 years ago. over the past 10 years, we're seeing lesson less. birds were seeing a great reduction of mammals. small males that 80 percent of the scholars are gone very concerning. the disruption of this echo system would be a terrible loss. these trees give off as much oxygen as a rain forest. they absorb as much carbon as arrange forth and to have all this change or, or be destroyed. ah, i think if we would suffer dramatically with climate change, the human population of florida is booming. all the new arrivals need somewhere to

live. new housing developments or encroaching on the natural landscape. then we spot and alligator. it's about 10 porter, $10.00 to $12.00 foot, one of the biggest alligators i've seen down here. that doesn't alter the fact that this unique ecosystem is under threat. and again, humans will the future right now, we better get on it because time is running out. the really is no manager sightings . today. we head over to the other side of the everglades to visit professor bryan lapointe, one of florida's leading ocean researchers and an expert on this fragile ecosystem . last year we lost over a 1000 manatees. it was a record year for manatee mortalities. and a lot of that was due to the starvation of the manatee, due to the fact that the c grasses had all but disappeared. manatees are continuing

to die at an alarming rate. that's due in part to pollution from wastewater treatment plants. many homes on the indian river lagoon aren't connected to the central sewer, but have septic tanks. the waste water it goes down into the soil and then moves through the soil and groundwater into the indian river lagoon or adjacent water body. it results and outbreaks of algae that block light causing sea grass laws. and that deprives marie life, including manages of a vital food source, that is the primary food source for the manatee. and so now that the c grasses are gone, the manatees are starving to death. these developments are nothing new national story program. the unseen menace is all about septic tanks. so this

was done in, as i said, florida to day 1997. and we new way back then that the lagoon was already showing signs of of septic tank pollution and problems, fish kills. but nothing happened. so this has been well known for a law for decades. yes, nothing else we love. nothing. not very little. i mean small's baby steps have been done, but nothing on the scale of what the problem requires. so we really need the, you know, billions of dollars and a lot of time now to correct the problem in the, into to rebel ago. loss of diversity happens for a reason. and once a species goes extinct, it's lost forever. if i'm a blood is red, why i have you hated it. now it's your turn. do you have

a question about science? send it to us via video, text or voice message. if we answer your question on the show, we'll send you a little surprise as a thank you. come on to start. lou. this makes question comes from e s. terrace. ah. why do some fish have stripes? while others have spots? fish has been around for hundreds of millions of years to day these water dwellers come in a huge variety of colors and patterns. and now scientists can use molecular biology to examine exactly how this happened. cyclic are particularly interesting for researchers because they have developed into a huge number of sub species with very different shapes and patterns in africa's lake victoria evolution happened at an amazing pace within a few 1000 years,

500 new species as thick woods emerged. all this diversity can be traced back to a few ancestors that migrated from neighboring lakes. there are a number of different hab, sat in lake victoria, and the sick was adapted to them. those that live among aquatic plants have developed camouflaged with vertical stripes. while those that live in open water have horizontal stripes, which are beneficial when fish are swimming unprotected. these stripes make it difficult for predators to focus on a single fish. evolutionary biologists from constants in southern germany reveal the secret to how the sick looks. different patterns came about a long series of experiments, brought males with vertical stripes together with 5 females with horizontal stripes

. none of the resulting offspring had horizontal stripes. these fish were then put together in groups with one male and several females. each a quarter of their offspring had for his auto stripes. this happens only one is sickly, inherits the striped gene from both parents in midas thick lids. the different coloring is probably caused by a so called jumping gene minus sick lids are usually all born with dark coloring. those with the jumping gene, vin turned orange yellow, or even white as they develop. the color change from dark to golden occurs when cells containing the dark pigment, melanin die off in the fissures skin. in reality, it's a discoloration caused by the jumping gene that alters how proteins are produced in

the scales. ah, researchers have been investigating how patterns and colors develop and fish for more than a 100 years. but there are still many mysteries to be so ah, that's it for this edition of tomorrow today. glad you could join us and hope to see you again next time. until then, stay curious, but by noon . ah, with
