a, she's there motivator. all of us here a little must be the and she will give up to watch the assignment for public took my brother hostage a few days ago. the trying to sign in the scene on the job. they will be silent. starts june 3rd on dw, the . this is focus on your up, i'm lara. baba, lola, glad you could join us and apocalyptic storm. that's how people in italy have described the severe flooding that destroyed parts of the country. torrential rains have a ravaged the land with it leaves north especially hard hit. tens of thousands have

been left homeless. their houses buried by mud slides. rows had been washed away in the deluge, and more than a dozen people were killed. the brunt of the flooding has been borne by that amelia roman, your region, half a year's worth of rain came down in just 36 hours. and the despair fell by residents is coupled with anger. and the municipality of moody. leander, criticism against politicians is growing because many feel the impact of the floods could have been less severe and opinion that fruit farmer, andrea, and the laundry shares construction projects have disrupted the balance of the vulnerable region, ceiling off the soil and making it less absorbent. this created a perfect storm, letting the force of nature unleashed upon the land. on 3, i'm milan, 3 is anxious about his 2 trees. his 24 picked the farm was completely submerged. if

it doesn't dry out and the next phase, milan 3 could lose the entire harvest of cvs apples and peaches, a loss of more than half a 1000000 euros. he says, pick out the, somebody must a right now there's a lot of uncertainty about the future. so we, this is our life and if they all die, we will lose everything. we monitor the black on the farm of like milan 3, the catastrophic floods are just the lead to submit us. it least consider particularly by the climate change in recent years. he says he's grappled with drought, him, stones, tornadoes, and most recently a cold snap made a book about to put on the, on the own. i did not before i was worried about extreme cold. now i'm more scared of floods or am i up to boulder cooling early on, i cool dining set this. there was uncertainty back then too. but it's nothing compared to this mentioned event. it'll hook it in but it isn't just climate change

. the played a role in the recent flooding with simple, entire tones and send total and so modern debris hooking down the regions at the 9 mountains. some of the reasons seem to be home me too. i mean, it will. vanya is one of the leaves, most fragile regions when it comes to floods, and lance lights, mainly because of the use of, i'm checked construction in the movie and cleans ceiling entire areas already close to flooding. over 200000 picked all the plans have been paved over and coaching upon fondest exploits like gabriel. believe me see, the only thing that are these 3 rivers are squeezed into ever higher and narrow banks to give space to houses, industries, and agriculture. we need to reverse this approach. we've got more about that a little 5 years ago the we to government, boston vicious zito land consumption bill. but it was never implemented, polices height was flooded,

areas have long been well mapped. the blue line clearly indicates when nothing should be built, but they kept being ignored sunday, or whatever. and then when i worked in the local administration, who counselors sometimes came and asked me to move the lines to allow their friends and such to build. this is the problem when politics does things like that, it's not looking out for the public interest or the interest of future generations . no, to say that i simple because the theater instead as to the new, i mean the other monuv last foot highlands across the cross with extensive it'll be sent into structure. many of the controls and streams. here, most of the banks meet 2 largest b. we g lundy says that's also buckley because it's lee faced 2 years of extreme drought before this does all stuff, which meant maintaining the regions, what do we've and river banks will not consider a priority with one other that goes into the fund. one of the things we need to do

is to restructure and we model the land for a new climate company. my case that i want, can i the we have to take charge and invest an infrastructure that can bring us towards adoption, both out of and they'll put it, we will have to adapt on investment, which is the name of the daughter that's also evident in the tone of what leona, it's a quarter to over $200.00 land slides since early me when the 1st round of floods hit snapping communication networks, roads, and water supplies. the local authority see was the priority is to rebuild. the disaster shows it's constantly be business, as usual, is on a bill. there are houses that were built where they shouldn't have been directly in the past of a potential land slide or equals 3. we have to rebuild with respect for the natural landscape and terrain. so his spot palmer on the, on the laundry doesn't know how long can you be able to hold out in the face of

ever growing extreme weather events. fido geological thought in that will you be a farmer today has become almost a hebron look enterprise? let me put it at all, but if this is what we need to get used to, it's going to be tough to really tough amino romani, other rules up. it's leads to deal with the altima, the floods. the question of what i'm to fight this tragedy on what can be learned from it is growing ever though the disruption of nature is also causing alarm. and i'll be a, a boom and construction there has given rise to a debate over commerce and the coastline ones, one of your course countries, albini as the economy now has a promising outlook. the tourism industry has grown exponentially in the past few years. and this has led to a massive building craze and places like samuel on the l. binion riviera with the

coast there is a standing natural paradise, but construction codes and environmental regulations are always enforced. now the pristine views are becoming obstructed by the lord of big prophets. hi, we mark who owns a restaurant in a bay in southern albania. he's getting everything ready for the tours season. the 1st visitors will be arriving soon. i think it's very nice if you hear it very clearly what the very good. a very nice sunny i am lucky in my place because it's for us, it's the, it's some, it's wendy. this stretch of coastline has been dump the albanian caribbean, the many beautiful beaches attract more and more towards the these images were taken in summer when the region is over, run with party towards the mark who was enjoying the peace and quiet before the

tour. a season takes off. he used to work on the greek island of cor food, just across the sea, but he returned to his native albania in 2012, to set up his own business. in a busy town, it's working around 20 persons from there to here. with it, helping us to a sector is booming, which is set off a construction bu, especially by the see professor cristo cory, a former forest engineer, hardly recognizes albania as coast or yeah does, is that the waste water flows directly into the seat that of that. but i killed being got to get all this concrete. an iron has brought us these problems. it's upset to balance the balance between the see what the sand, that other plans that they get very efficiently speaking. it's illegal to build within 200 meters of the sea. in order to protect the coast. but here in some meal

houses were even built in the middle of a national park that's home to protected species. the state had to demolish the country as worried about his home regions. he's about to meet the mayor of something new to share his concerns. a few kilometers further along, we run into german taurus. we're spending a few weeks in albania, there full of praise for the country. although they have noticed the construction you buy them on and then when you drive down the coast, you see she was hotel buildings being built everywhere, probably with regard for nature and the surroundings. so you're not tuned on the, on cable mobile. not everyone wants to take part in this taurus, bonanza, 70 kilometers further. north denise cook and the chief runs a small camp site. most of his regular guests seek peace and quiet recap and make the throne me to guess that we have little to do with tourist and

want to spend their vacation in a square concrete room or low mock. and guess here to appreciate the unspoiled nature which is vital to cook of a cheese business. and as most of it should stay this way about that of course that isn't in our hands. and 2nd, saw me professor tower is with a major explaining his concerns. i think yeah, we need to make it clear to tories and visitors how to protect this nature or to stick to reset the massage. but the mayor has other priorities here. tourism is the main source of income a little bit, but i think there's still enough space to build to say, oh, there's enough, vacant land and that should be used for tourism, but nature is fragile, and su albania,

we'll have to decide which direction to take. party tourism like pizza, or a more sustainable form of doors. the one ukraine has cast a shadow on the separatist region of trans. mr. yeah. it broke away from the over in 1990 when the soviet union collapsed. but it's independence is not internationally recognized. trans mystery a is largely pro kremlin and more buildings like you recall. so found fear that their country could face to face similar to that if you crane many and will do over one closer ties to the west. and last year, the country applied for membership in the european union the moving capital piece, you know, on may 21st tens of thousands came to rally in favor of joining the european union . many of them are driven to by a fear of a russian invasion or equal to fun is one of them. he knows what it means

to find traction forces. with this come right. he tried to defend mole dillman land against pro russian separatists 3 decades ago. he's wondering whether you will need to go to the doctor. think of it as a whole country, small dove, and ukraine. if you pray and falls rush, you will not stop at the news to river banks to russian troops already almost built in territory under international law. this part of the news to river separate small dover from is pro russian break away state on the eastern bank trends in history. it splits from all dubai, in the 199 piece of frozen pulse soviet, for anyone who wants to visit this region, must take this ferry across the water russian soldiers. yes,

they've been here for the past 30 years, officially in a peacekeeping mission. equal to find me says in coach. yeah. right. one of the mold open villages surrounded by transmits trees. at 1st sight, everything appears quiet. but to your e. it's no. slowly it hasn't been quiet here since 1991. as long as the russian army is on the left bank of the eastern and his place is under occupation, there won't be peace any time soon. i mean just enough for forced out, but that of the village, which sherry is blake. there are plenty in this community who feel neglected by the move to open government in case you know and have a soft spot for russia. it's less than pm stands. we are absolutely not against russia. we prefer close ties to help and support each other that has so many people hate putting because they say starts wars. but actually it

seems to be the contract. you can get could sherry supplied with cheap russian gas a blessing for many in this impoverished region. but for the you, cheap gas isn't enough to stick around for a 3rd of the population has less. christian is ready to leave to the marketplace, to be paid. there aren't a lot of opportunities and thinking about going to a different country, but we don't have a lot of money buying. nobody else to one the average income and could sherry is about $250.00 euros per month. christian shares this room with his brother and his parents. his dreams are bigger than their room. belonging to this, so your money didn't mean my plan is to finish school instead of graphic design. so let's all professor dealing design a graphic designer. when,

when you know things go well, i like to book abroad in the united states. so good as well. so i do need to he's concerned if you crane lose this, the war trends mystery and with that to wash you may dominate. could sherry even more when we say, i don't feel very well in our community that only supports the russian world. i'd like to see other people who think normally legato is that there are so many of them who me and i'm fed up with them on because for some of the ones that i need a new one here. once war says christian at the end. but even in the small village, the fronts are hardened. someone's help from russia. others hold for membership, and many fear that the war neighboring ukraine could very soon be on their doorstep . well, the effects of the war and ukraine are also being felt in poland. and it's not just

due to the refugees who are seeking shelter with their neighbors. in judge of international soldiers are also in the city. nato has established a military base to supply weapons to ukraine. this is keeping rafael. get off ski, a plane spotter, quite busy of late. he is seeing an unprecedented number of military aircraft in his city and the changes he's witnessing go far beyond the air field. another successful landing russell villarreal scheme is close to the airport in the policy to go to issues. his hobby is photographing airplanes, and there's been plenty to see since the russian v to do crane. and the airport here became a hub for international aid studies there before in the airports, entire history. maybe 10 jumbo jets landed here. now there are days when 10 jumbo jets arrive per day. they have the most significant part of western weapons to

ukraine. come through this polish airport, military plains, a park next to low cost airlines. the u. s. military is protecting the area with anti aircraft missiles. and there are said to be $10000.00 needle soldiers stationed in joshua. there are also plains arriving from ukraine. most are bringing sick people are those wounded by the war who need treatment in the u, including the ukrainian soldier. audrey was on his way to spain to be fitted for a prosthetic hand. i'm happy. i never would have thought they would make a free prospect for me. among those bringing ukrainians in need of treatment is paramedic. i'm a big leak. as she says, gesture is playing an important role in the war. not most of us because up in this

place is currently very important for us. and the city took us in from the 1st day of the war and just helping us and our patients. i'm not sure what to get into a diploma. we're very grateful to our publish colleagues and to everybody involved . here you've seen the logistics of doing this, the home use of the new situation that's economically benefit at the city, particularly hotels and restaurants such as this pizza. ria for us, president joe biden 8. and when he visited the troops, since then, more people have been coming to this restaurant. and there's a new special pizza variety itself. so the goal is close to the spicy. jo pizza has much rooms all over the pepperoni and hall opinion was told by the joe biden felt the heat before the war in ukraine. the city had 200000 inhabitants. now there are also 10000 soldiers in around 30000 refugees from ukraine. this

isn't a problem, say most residents, but some worry sometimes you see more people on the street or in the bars, but they're not dangerous for union. unfortunately, there's a war going on in their country, so we have to take them and there's no other choice. i thought the as those all the there's plenty of work, but i think that these people are putting a burden on our labor market. i don't think that's okay. but do you think? yes, i've talked to the, there's simply many more of us now, but maybe we're more famous in europe than before. but otherwise everything is normal. maybe your conrad for you. it has also gotten used to the city's new role. we're not so big city has no money and close to that you about the now even me the for see so you can cite them the why he's already thinking about the time after the war. is

this, what is the thinking today? gesture, this is a strategic city more for a to ukraine. we're trying to prepare so that we can also be a key city for the process of rebuilding a new ukraine and people don't available. could i know that before that the war has to end? meanwhile, people here don't seem scared of becoming a target play and sputter ruffled. the little sky explains why i didn't get them was a, there are american in british soldiers here. so we can feel quite sick also because we're part of native programs for a lot to to not. so despite his hobby, he will be glad to see fewer cargo and military plains is that would mean a return to peace. the spanish island of la palmer was devastated by a volcano or rupture. and that lasted for 3 months. back in 2021, homes were destroyed and people were displaced for some. there is no home to return

to, but the power of volcanoes is not only destructive and on the island of lands or go to it's being used for good. here energy is being generated from volcanic heat, as scientists are playing with fire for clean electricity. this device should generate enough power for a one family house sold around the clock. the generator works using the heat rising from inside of old canaan. but this is g o, 3rd makes with a twist, and the team of scientists from the spanish city of pamplona are about to test whether their idea will actually work. this is this, let me just demo. this is a new system. unlike others, it doesn't require as being power turbines that have up to the facility. it doesn't have to be as massive. pretty got a lot going on. this coming in for read through monitor shows that the surface temperature is between 33 and 37 degrees celsius. but what counts here is the underground temperature. me this wheel i hope is that it's really hot down there in

the earth, right? yeah, that's what we need the heat and where we get it up here. it's supposed to be cool . the lawn salt is volcano, it's have long been a tourist attraction. their heat makes for a great trex, but can it also become a source of clean renewable power? the scientists measure the underground temperature for the thermo electric generators to work it needs to be much higher than the surface temperature. what is it? $426.00. that's the air temperature, 2 meters below is that the temperature like yes, the light of the air escaping here in the book that has your thermal potential in go. they say cynthia, those issues you see now the temperature is 428. we can hardly believe it. you can feel it. be careful though.

the i think it is burns. now. now you believe it is over $400.00 degrees under ground. at one end, in less than 40 on the surface is a promising results, because the device has great a voltage potential using a temperature difference across the semi conductor. that's yes. hello. the electric generators reconstructed are very efficient and allow us to channel the heat directly into the modules and transform it into energy. and then he asked me what the us here is. my motivation is to make something that doesn't exist yet something new. like this system, any energy generated here is eco friendly. the same scene that knows many of the test here in 2 months by a national park or non. so to are now almost completed. and the scientists have high hopes the data will show their system using volcanic heat works. and if he

gave you the color, this energy which we take from below is accessible around the clock. i yeah, $365.00 days a year. and then the quite the data we want to use it to make the park self sufficient so that it doesn't need fossil fuels anymore. yeah. the giving it a, almost even the forcing us to this restaurant might also be powered by clean energy from the new system. another canary islands, palma, just following the experiment closely. the last time a volcano erupted here was in 2021 temperatures a few meters below these makes shift roads can still reach 700 degrees celsius signs. warren, that this is a hot area which in theory has great potential for generating energy back at the university of pamplona data from the test site is being analyzed. i said,

yes, we could use the system to generate 5 times the energy produced by photovoltaic power plants. this graph shows that energy is constantly being generated when the difference in temperatures increases at night. so to does the energy production, the shop is the equivalent of the energy consumption of one family house that we're not a 4 person household. we're continuously gaining around 120 watts just won't see him throwing throughout the us and continue this project supported by the use. next generation budget will now be expanded. more geothermal power facilities will be built window of and she will publish the results. and then other scientists can read them and take the next steps for more professional, unless a system that generates clean power, day and night, using a temperature difference that exists naturally. this project benefits alonzo

dorothy, and the energy revolution generally. a more power to them. well, that's all from us this week as focus on your f. thanks so much for your company. bye. for now. the, [000:00:00;00]
