a call, which i need to get to work and that i have to work 13 hours a day without through z honors. so what's behind this? portugal was once the pool house of europe. now it's the place to be off to the financial crisis. the government began offering immediate and residents permits to anyone willing to invest 500000 year rates that brought you in for an invest, as especially from china and brazil. then there was an influx of retirees from fronts and in recent is tech companies have been flocking to portugal as universities specialize increasingly and engineering and technology development hobbs to vote. so sprung up around lisben and pool. so the conditions are perfect and not just for big corporations. i'm with him on this. other firms have realized that to the bushes here, the portugal telecom has 900 engineers and it's innovation center and hold on. just can you just don't hear about that in germany. to me, unless you come here and see it 1st hand because the student activities my skills
12:35 am
walk is and yet low wages, that's what makes portugal attractive for businesses based portuguese and foreign professionals of buying for jobs. a little housing is being built as we see here in less than a whole new housing estates designed by the ends of piano is going up in a prime location versus a luxury accommodation. so it was a mess. okay. it is all liberty. these prices here started $6000.00 euros per square meter, and all of this housing is all new to a person. was in a good home about 10 minutes to get to the, to the see if you would ask people a few years ago to show you this area on the map. i'm reviewing them up a date of struggle. nobody's registrated for godaddy for sale. what snacking is housing for the white population. georgina shows us some apartments in her neighborhoods that used to be so people are moving comes we'll they want the 300004 that 300004 an apartment and natal. i thought of the keys. we do monday the
12:36 am
government is now taking action, issuing a ban on new licenses to abby and be apartments. some publicly use buildings to be converted into housing. and if necessary, privately owned buildings that are empty will be forcibly rented out those fighting for more affordable housing. say it's not enough. i know exactly. it's just window dressing again. what was the typical of this government? do you speak of? do addition to available to me or if i way at ashley i lisben isn't impressed either. thanks. it'd be this one. but we need state on housing on our own man is the most if necessary. we even need to expropriate that land reserve. i agree with and more importantly, we need to take land out of the national agricultural reserve and build on it. if we don't create publicly own housing, we're not solving the problem comfortable, but i know from probably a month, that's the pa, his city is taking at the national level. it's not yet clear what's the impact the government's plans will have. but even the real estate agent knows things needs to
12:37 am
change. the capacity out, social harmony and cohesion is so important. make the point of if we lose that and then we'll lose part of our investment fund for the students. portugal is if use of a country that so many it's no longer offering a beautiful life. average incomes of 1400 years, but social housing makes up just 3 percent of housing stock, 3 times less than the u. average friend or foe. that's the question that's being asked around the world when it comes to advanced robots and a, i many worry about losing their jobs. others are betting on a positive revolution. that includes a business on the indonesian island of java. it's investing and high performing robots to save the future of a piece of cultural heritage. the. ready the melted wax is reading, using a spouting tool called a counting. the hot wax are among them is applied to fabric before it's died. but take as an exacting technique. you can take 2 or 3 months to complete
12:38 am
a piece about to creations produced by on the studio. so as family business are made on the indonesian island of java, he's worried about the future of this traditional handicraft family have at the funds on there are many challenges to making boutique by hand up. i mean, i think, i think so firstly, but to curtis are becoming scarce, young to try to remember it's hard to find people from the younger generation who like to do it to some people. more than a long came boutique printing day, which does not follow the standard processes of making boutique b and b. that money will be back on. i think unesco has added indonesian by taking to its list of intangible cultural heritage of humanity to help keep this unique handicraft alive and a sooty are so invented the book team, the world's 1st about teak machine. he's also a university lecturer for mechanical engineering who sought an efficient means to
12:39 am
ensure the survival of but take making in his homeland salmon don't. but i conducted research to design technology for the boutique process. the appeal process on that day. my hope i wasn't using technology would make the process faster and more productive. it's about the solid people now it can be reduced to a matter of days. so that's what we're trying to do. and we hope that in the future, particularly more competitive in the marketplace will become about 50 bucks out of companies are employing modern technology, not just during production, but to create designs to before the by take motif, so were drawn on paper and then transferred to the cloth, now the computer takes care of that and sends the finished design to the machine. within about the give me, i'm around the corner is a boutique machine is connected to this computer here. it runs a program that translates the image is produced by the previous design or the
12:40 am
battery account, but these images are then converted into machine language and the results are executed using the software on this computer and come with them. that's basically it of us. it's not so tough the i think, i mean if they did tell them gun the guns or whatever to come up with that any the but take business has great potential exports are running at more than 500000000 us dollars providing work for some 200000 people at $47000.00 companies and formed demand is growing. so the team could help to cover the data kaya watch. busy who's been in the take business for years has purchased the machine. she believes it makes 14 production significantly more efficient. it's lowered her production costs by around 30 percent. i mean, you got to be someone here yet. we cannot get rid of traditional badges make is big because even though we have these machines, we still need them as
12:41 am
a special complicated jobs. yeah. up and running through media. so usually when making lines less than half a minimum, it's a long community. and for example, the granite to make sure that we got to video, the big list, this movie for clients. so it looks like a line, but actually it's made up of doors to the machines. can we do that? but it takes a long time. the law must scully, t mos inventor and the city are so stresses that his machine wasn't designed to put people out of work. tell us how to be needed to look at what is the criteria for the introduce your national standard? is that particular handicrafts whom i'm going to take? i'm therefore technology cannot replace the whole process. it must remain predominantly manual work. so we started looking at which boutique processes could be effectively and efficiently replaced by technology. because the company that you're looking about chemo costs around 10000 euro, a large sum for small indonesian firms were given high global demand. the machine
12:42 am
could give the batik industry a big boost and the world isn't only short of fatigue. artist, hotels and restaurants are also struggling to find employees at the moment. germany's labor market is short, $50000.00 people. for example, in france, it's $200000.00, and the us is missing a total of $2000000.00 workers. accounting in berlin is now trying out the same solution as the boutique producer from java. their newest employee is a robots in this past. the dish with beacon meats and parmesan was prepared not by a human foot by this cooking. re going its being working in the cafeteria of the bed and also has complex the 2 weeks who does a place to buy a cell phone up or touch pad each new to bone costs 8 years 50. once you've paid the result starts cooking. it mixes the pre costs and pre cooks ingredients
12:43 am
together and heats them out. 5 minutes late to dinner. i think it's fantastic. i'm very surprised about how to see it is that they can come to a quite good move on the noodles could a quick longer, but that's a matter of fine tuning. the machine of, of fine tuning is good. it is okay. it's okay. it's not like a restaurant law, but it's way better than your class. the campaign continued. this can be really compared with the continues which and it's freshly made. so i think it's even better because it's not, you know, boiling and this uh, preparation of pens. the result was developed by berlin based style shop aids makes founder manual kind of while i was involved with food delivery service for dora and got the idea from the big shortage of workers in the restaurant industry using it again. so we see it more as a supplement to the normal campaign at line, just to take some of the load outcomes because on the all. but we have lots of demand in the area of nighttime catering, or we can catering where a normal cafeteria doesn't work. and you know, wonderful,
12:44 am
that's because the number of employees you need and the number of ingredients you must keep in stock and keep warm, makes it too expensive for me. so i, that's why can teams are often closed, tempting of so the result one are you that on to thomas the boss of aramark gemini, immediately ordered 5 hoping to use the shortage of walk is the fast re bought, cook gone it interest from colleagues across here it is tough, this is the oldest, these are the situation we have with the shortage of skilled workers. it's the same worldwide as we see it everywhere. and we're having more and more problems getting well trained people and getting people into training. i'm lloyd that owns the house, but you can see this in spain and the check republican. and just as much as here can also be about with the classic kennedy and kitchen stuff will stay. they view that very about connie gives an assistance notice competition. so the aramark had shifting belen remains fixed on easy as mine. my husband wants to be my personal wish would be for these valuable items to stay in
12:45 am
a supporting role and not take the cooking away from us. we should continue to cook the way all grandmother's date and keep expanding on that. that's what's important to me. very about conk cooking. tiny by itself is this is what develops by 8 me shift safari, which was on a former shift that the ad on hotel. he sells the 36 kindest as the rouble uses with ingredients such as vegetables and sources. he doesn't think they're ready, but we'll be placing him anytime soon. i'm quoting been most money when you cook, you use all $0.05. is it for fun? do you see what you're cooking when you taste and smell what you're okay cool. when you feel the product is really hard or soft, this movies is as hard as as, and those are capabilities. no robot currently possesses opportunity. what kind of what type of test? something else the robot likes, social skills, machine can make a quick bite to eat. that contains also more classic on the classic and team as we
12:46 am
know it in germany will stay. there will always be this meeting place here. it's about much more than just the food. yeah. so people want to meet and see each other in that technology is still in its infancy. and if you use, however, it may be quite normal for machines to cook for us. staying with the topic of high performance machines, the car you see behind me is one of the fastest vehicles in the world. it reaches more than 400 kilometers an hour. so it's way too fast to drive on the highway, except if you're in germany, more than half of all german highways actually have no speed limit at all. and most people in the country are in no rush to change that despite its dangerous consequences of the is this nissan of the german autobahn. maybe if you're visiting because for many
12:47 am
locals hurling down the highway at top speed is just another day of driving. germany could save millions of tons of few to a year if it implemented a speed limit. so why doesn't the self proclaimed cream power tickets put off the gas? in germany, the debate around the speed limit is polarizing a slight majority of the population wants one. but the opposition is loud. this is michelle, so it doesn't make sense to drive 200 kilometers per hour just to have some fun or feel superior to other people. that's the thing we should keep it as it is. we are restricted everywhere in austin was apparently gas prices stood on high enough to make people drive to the west bogo. why do we build cars with more than 50 horse power? if we can only drive a 100 kilometers per hour and assign them. and spoiler alert, this discussion often 1000 for evolve around fact gets a kind of a now so to say, in motion of the phase, this is katya dear. she wrote a book about mobility in germany. costs people want to stock to be free to have f
12:48 am
we will of drive with it really fast. but let's take a look at the facts 1st. germany has more than 13000 kilometers of autobahn. famously well maintained and toll free for cars. most countries in the world got speed limits to improve road safety or to cause or fuel get in germany, you can drive as fast as you want and about 70 percent of highways. opponents of the speed limit argue that there are fewer road that's per kilometer on the altima . and then in some nation, such as france or italy. but experts like the german road safety council will say it will become even safer with a limit in recent years. but discussion has shifted to another aspect, the climate, the one thing also these agree on that a limit on these highways with lower emissions. the question is to what extent will according to the latest study, by jeremy's environment agencies, the country could save up to $6700000.00 tons of c o 2 per year. if it implemented a speed limit of a 120 kilometers per hour,
12:49 am
that's about as much as low emission in countries like rolanda in eritrea polluting the year. another study commissioned by the car friendly ftp party puts the savings much lower at $1100000.00 tons per year. so realistically speaking, how substantial really is a cut of one to 6000000 tons of c o. 2 for a top looter like germany. the opponents of the month to a speed lead me to argue that the emission reductions wouldn't be 3 via julia much really research of the transport and climate policy. they just choose that denominator that would make it appear ridiculous, the ridiculously small. but i think if you, if you choose the, the right, the nominator, the reduction would be substantial. the denominator he's referring to is the gap between how much the german transportation sector should be emitting, according to the federal climate protection act, and how much it actually is a meeting in 2022. the sector went over to 2 emissions target by 9000000 times a speed limit to reduce that different significantly if they go with
12:50 am
a german environment. agencies estimates if it go with the liberal party, it's estimates the limit could reduce a portion of the success of missions. it's such a low line hanging fluid in terms of no age weight will have other benefits in terms of safety and reducing road death. and he's already exists in, in pretty much any other country in the woods. but for some germans, that's a big they see driving fast as an expression of their freedom and cars as a part of their culture. and some of john and see it as a kind of d n a. i think it's that it's sorry to say with, i don't know if you block the nazi dictator promise to motorized germany. in the 1930s, a venture that he said would create jobs and dr of technological development. he wanted to lay the groundwork for one of the earliest highway networks in the world . for a while, the nazis implemented no speed restrictions. that is until resources started running low during world war 2 and altima and drivers had to stick to
12:51 am
a limit of 80 kilometers per hour to consider of gas. after the war having autonomy became crucial to many german. germany was only destroyed where there was no hope. the weather was per wow. yeah, coming back from the front and the car was a kind of freedom side. owning a car was d aspiration that turns more and more feasible. as the car industry started booming, producing cars became the answer to rebuilding the country's economy and driving them fast became the answer to rebuilding its freedom. so west germany got rid of them now to speed limit law in 1952. so literally when the communist judy yard is off during german reunification in 1990, it's out of on speed restrictions went with it. shortly after for decades, many germans fought tooth and nail for this liberty. any time anyone messed with the right to drive fast, they were met with outrage. perhaps because of the country with tens of millions of cars and christine roads,
12:52 am
driving fast might just be one of the easiest ways to find the place of freedom. this lives of freedom has become a bit of a selling point abroad. torres even come to germany to drive as fast as possible for several 100 year olds, you to convince a premium car to enjoy the excitement of the notorious sermon, alto, bon, drive, full throttle and reach top speeds of 300 kilometers per hour or more. but if other people also find driving fast so fun, why is germany one of the only countries that still allows that? after all this time the speed limit can hardly be sold as a relic of nazi germany. well, the tuning car industry that provided many germans with a taste of freedom back then a still around of course. and it's very influential. the line between politicians and the car lobby has long been blurry. so you'll see this kind of what in germany the card did to effect the step out of politics and they've got to go to the industry or to the lobby organizations. these close ties became apparent when
12:53 am
jeremy's, previous transport minister met with industry representatives 80 times during his tenure of nearly 4 years. this was 1st reported by the german newspapers to touch a title. he only met with environmental associations once. and the new government continues to give privilege access. it's less the ability summit was almost exclusively stocked with car representatives. it's no surprise that the government has often push for the car industries interest when it comes to limit in caps on vehicle emissions, for example, or expanding highways around the country. as for the speed limit, we can say that the car lobby has actively petition against it in government. but we know the conservative and the liberal party currently stand in the way of this restriction. and so does most of the industry we need in general widgets beat limits on the launch. it's as a spokes person for the vda, an interest group for germany's automotive industry. the situations adapted speech recognition. the video suggests digital boards could show
12:54 am
a speed limit when bad weather or traffic conditions require it. according to the group or richard limit would have minimal effects on the climate or road safety. it's factual references a study that says the limit could cost german society more than a $1000000000.00 euros. the study calculated how much time germans would lose if they drove slower, and how much of an average wage they would miss out on as a result. but this 2023 paper published in the journal for ecological economics disputes, assertions, like these it's cost benefit analysis of germany could save hundreds of millions every year because yes, there is a cost of a speed limit. the benefits, like paying less for fuel damages from accidents and even the future effects of climate change outweigh these costs. reason that tends to implement a speed limit has been denied in parliament. because one of the parties in power the car from the ftp block, the issue from being part of the coalition of bringing or instead some opponents like to point to alternatives to save emission is like going electric. many car
12:55 am
producers are becoming more open to the shift. after all that you has banned the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2035. in germany, it's very slowly incentivizing people to use electric vehicles. but there's still tens of millions of cars with combustion engines on german roads. and not everyone can afford to get rid of stairs or wants to. beyond that, the country has the potential to improve public transport and rural areas and revamp a train system that currently is awesome, lead and unreliable. but the solutions take time for many environmental researchers . stress is that a speed limit is one of the fastest mechanisms we have to lower emissions in the meantime. in my opinion, if the german government funds even bring the tubs to do that, then i, i wonder what one it can do to, to reduce parts permissions. i think we need to have like that uh sent to us some but it's a bed of dreams as driving fast and owning a car for some people. this would feel like an attack on their culture, their personal freedom. but it would put jeremy on par with most countries in the
