1:31 pm
causing multiple rivers to break the bank. thousands of people who have been forced to evacuate from the homes following the worst floods in the country's history. major roads and red lines have been forced to close on several villages have been completely cut off from the rest of the world. the slow waiting prime minister has stated that 2 tubs of the country is effected by flash floods, and to prevent such devices in the future. more damage would it be needed like the one in louisiana benedict adults. nick resides in the beautiful healy reason with this picture risk, but also disaster prone of the homes swelled up by rivers crossings. crushed by walter slipping in carpenter benedict's patel. snick doesn't know when or how he will ever work again. after flash floods hits 2 thirds of his country. it is in this when we're done with all what i saw,
1:32 pm
the water broke down the store and floated the entire workshop. all of my carpentry machinery was inside. all of it's destroyed now. so what's the areas? i mean, we spent 30 years of our lives in building this on in the city. this has met in 2 hours. it was all gone. by when she stays on dirt, debris and sludge coats, the comforts of tone of turn and i could, or she can, benedict's takes, i was inside his family home. there's no running water, no power. the floating motor came all the way up to here. it was everywhere. now we have the firefighters, they're doing a really amazing job. others are also pitching in neighbors drain mode by the bucket load for soldiers, big homes and we took the rubble. that is,
1:33 pm
it's hard to find how powerful nature can be and we're happy we can do out dc loans . that's all that matters. and all we can do the force of nature is on full display here. but far from the flood zone frontlines, the force of civilian solidarity is on show to and are away in valencia. the red cross has been inundated with donations, working loves, and cleaning logs. we managed to go quite a lot of them as well for the tools. we got a lot of, uh, rooms and uh, shovels, even though they are bought out at the stores, peoples, they're all from all over. so they need to drop them off here. and keep coming during food, both old walters toes and other essentially almost everybody's got somebody to affect that either in friends or family. so yeah, we're
1:34 pm
a small country. so the evidence that helps. and i think we're gonna get through this further sites in louisiana. hydraulic engineers are thinking about the bigger picture, their models accurately predicted where flooding would occur, but not the intensity. no climate change is shifting expectations. we cannot go have a thinking, it will not happen again. it will happen again again from one from a ballistic point of view, and we have to be ready for it. that means building more slots defense is like this one, and we've, leona, it was construct to, to, after a deluge in 2010 and helped keep catastrophe out of the neighborhood. this time runs pretty much. bonneville is confident to more infrastructure will be put in place, that his officer has focused minds, but he says some communities may have to relocate from the riskiest regions for
1:35 pm
good. this is one of the really difficult components moving for weight. it's under estimated solve much thinking that induce the people which have to move away thoughts they will have to move away by can choose now residents are still really so the news president has come to offer them messages of support for the civilian government is now doing everything it can with the help of nato and jude opinion. so i can assure you that no one is going to be left behind. no one is going to stay without a place to live in sleep, ready to take on on, on, on, on the day that i have currently not months to rebuild. but the years to rebuild benedict says he come to me, they are to think affect the future. one where floods may become more frequent.
1:36 pm
now we'll manage somehow for no, he'll keep on cleaning up, seeking some hope among the mountains of mount in spring, but then prices have been so high, but even spaniards are struggling to cool. however, the situation could also be done into something. add one pages, span names to honda, solar energy and in order to facilitate this photo, what type plans have already been installed in the most sunlit regions of the country? right on the doorsteps of the blonde is angus, et cetera, which will not only find the situation irritating, but is also concerned about potential changes to the landscape of and the lucio in southern spain. that's a conflict that many people in this part of the country having to face and says a tooth that she lives in one of spain's funniest regions with his wife and horses
1:37 pm
. but he is concerned because that same son has attracted industry. just have a nice a huge solar park has recently been built next to his estate for think for one of the motors that threw up at the city to the country center that so that i know they are building the solar rate is around as big industrialism as right next to warehouse and kind of seem to get them and more are planned. spain wants to produce green energy from its abundance, sunshine. that's good for the climate, but threatens and his plans. he wants to started writing therapy center here in 15 to get out of a need. it has to be a nice listening place for people to spend the day. but i believe i said, but if people don't want to comb, we'd love to give up on our project. so throw a couple of months out. i'd have to push it to the for others. the
1:38 pm
solar cells represent economic growth. after tourism collapse during the cold with pen demik, mayor jose diaz is happy for every sent invested. i'll be able to talk and think it's out of his own info and but of many of lost their jobs and these hard time. these are but uh you can go to port out of me, call it all what i will now through these building projects. some of the been able to get back to the job market is he going to offer? now olive groves are being clear cut to make way for solar plants. some farmers have sees the opportunity to lease or sell their land to the energy companies. nikolai of done has signed over some of his land because water is increasingly scarce and expensive. irrigation no longer pays off. cinoya's one wild with another. nothing grows here. what else wants to wrestle you for kids? so we're trying to get at least something out loud, and it's like
1:39 pm
a little mini moving forward. more than $200.00 spanish citizens initiatives are sounding the alarm and fighting the solar fields, the lease below neo and others fear that spain will become europe's power supplier . and at the end, because their and their little what the government, but the people's expense. look at my supplements, may i ask who i'm next door that's going to send them with the fact you say spell that last blog decided on his color on these huge solar fields are built here with all the environmental and social impact of apples, it will mainly provide economic growth and jobs elsewhere and it's not here. yeah. you have on this time. that's not fair. and so hold on. yeah, no, the pain is being colonized and exploring the study. told us there are other ways, like 50 kilometers away, and most of the village has built a photo voltaic plant, top they're small theater to produce their own electricity. the may or francisco garcia proudly explains the creation of an energy community backed by an
1:40 pm
e. u regional development fund, custom photograph, luca and stuff like that, it's healthy, not bargaining. everything we produce here. it stays in the community in the, in the uh, we don't want to sell our energy to the big company itself. the, see nothing on official. i want affordable climate, friendly electricity for all our citizen us and all the for my guess. yeah. so give that all sorts of what to get no sale. you'll get the plan currently. powers 21. households with businesses and restaurants expected to come on board the the but luis polonius. so spain is focusing too much on large scale projects. the state is given solar cell companies, free rain, instead of ensuring that they build under elect industrial sites to vote any spelled out of $10000.00 met all the same capacity can be achieved without destroying the environment. but there's no planted by the solar arrays where
1:41 pm
trees. one stood horse lever on show a tear of it still cannot understand it. nobody said a kid by the side of why they can't destroy the environment and the name of the environmental protection. but it makes no sense. no, i, i like, you know, you know, that, i mean that if, once you're not for and the ramping growth of the solar fields defeats its purpose, he hopes that future projects will be more environmentally friendly, such as a nearby i most it so that green electricity is really green since the cost of living prices on inflation have hit great britain, the gap between the rich and the poor has become even more pronounced by the accident upper class, enjoy their lives. millions can hardly afford the most basic necessities. guy sing . watson is a millionaire, and is willing to wall entirely pay more taxes to
1:42 pm
a those a need. however, accomplishing this is not as easy as it may seem. nowhere else in western europe does the inequality between rich and per cape as widely as it does in the united kingdom. as may be seen, even an idyllic devon, on the border to cornwall, dicing watson numbers among the upper 10000. a fact, it is not a precinct to talk after a brief career as a corporate consultants in london, a new york city, the no experiments which growing organic vegetables on his parents farm see, watson went back to the land when he realized that money can't buy happiness now he's earning more than any effort drunk of with over a $100.00 employees river foot galaxy is one of the united kingdom's biggest organic farms. over the past few years, he signed 100 percent ownership over to his workers. that's
1:43 pm
a relatively low price. now he only stays on the road of mentor and that's probably going to waste, wanted to use the business to shape the wells. and i wanted to shake the world and then way in that was more like the world. i want it to live in, which is one that's not dominated by inequality and greed to growing poverty all around under the current government is doing nothing to help. as ever more people are overtaken by inflation and raising interest rates. he himself will be happy to pay for more in taxes to change that in his office, he shows as an open letter. he's written in collaboration with 40 order millionaires to purchase prime minister richie soon i is a right. if the taxes on multi millionaires were raised by only one percent, it would lead to an annually increased revenue equivalent to about $60000000.00
1:44 pm
euros. 6000000 as u. k. invited to join us in calling for a fair attack system on the 19th to pay him strangely. he did find in fact, the prime minister and his party are staunchly opposed to more taxes in general. and especially any kind of wealth tax. this will soon extends back when he was finance minister. thank you mister speaker. mississippi could no, i don't believe now is the time what would be the time for a wealth tax now is the time to recognize the challenge we face. the disposition does not mean that the tories are only a party of the wealthy, as one of their lawmakers explains what money is mobile today. so if we send the wrong signals, then money will slip down to this country. when actually we want to the money to be slipping into this country, investing in the real economy, not just into property, but into businesses to create jobs, back in this farm, guys seeing what's in this, these conclusions. so this is absolute rubbish. they may that, i mean tighten lee,
1:45 pm
that just isn't quite true. i mean, just look at what time the over the last 10 years. how can people keep saying that the poor again for the rich are getting richer? that is no trickle down. there's a trickle out, you know, actually all sorts of things. i just panel believe that we hear the argument, you know, again and again, what is this just to actually lead no factual basis to guarantee well over 2000000 persons depends on food banks. to survive. this bank receives fruits and vegetables donations regularly from watkins farm. its distribution to over a 1000000 meals in the past 18 months and more more its ordinary families who need help to be able to feed the children. the packages are distributed to people. the city has identified as a need such as leo and his partner mos. she lost her job after undergoing an operation. then she had trouble of feeding her 4 children. before they
1:46 pm
discovered the food bank, they often ate only once today. it's not just me, i have friends with children holding the same position, my brothers in the same position. he lost his job and he had a mortgage as well. and, you know, now he has to sell his house. he's losing tens of thousands. so he's gonna end up in a lot of debt. and it's still hard. you know, it's still hard because we still get the food. so there is not moment, but i feel this month. i feel good because of the house to us getting more food. but that have to any way. and it hurts, you know, if i provide or what have a lot that are good dignity, you just feel like the great indignity and for no escape spine hopes nobody notices. maybe things will start looking up. he tells us, but people like guy sing, watson, we're better informed. don't talk much hope that the will anytime soon. and the
1:47 pm
government continues to insist that everything's coming up roses. in a long term, the very foundations of british democracy may be endangered. they all can seriously wrong to the extent that i really worry about the, the breaking of the social contract, then the, and the loss of peoples investment. and so someone to, you know, which in the end results in violence and revolution, you know, which is really not something the other thing anyone wants to see. but i, i feel like coming closer he sees no shortage of ideas for how to tackle these problems. but what good are they is the political will just isn't there been if i'm doubting the stands out as the most free load italian city. along to this. however, the area has become so crowded that people often have to squeeze through the narrow streets, undeniably making life challenging for the local population. in fact,
1:48 pm
the old city center has very few residents left, and those who still lived there on please to see the cities john being diminished. giovanni leoni wants fewer daughters and a city, and is actively advocating for it. but it is proving to be a very difficult task. the ones that are like got to load up. okay, let's split up this way today for you do the model even if you want to do it for you, do the geo do net tv audio and you do that section by phone to de padia in a pretty joint report. and then what day would be the call to could you kindly get up here? you're not allowed to sit here. thank you for today to get out to the municipal public order officers asked exhausted, guess not to sit on the steps they didn't. thank you. sorry. so generally tourist take it in stride, but sometimes on hot days they get annoyed. i wanted to talk to these for them. i
1:49 pm
didn't, i don't have to be god, but tour sitting around are the least of innocence. problems. over 7000000 visitors squeezed their way through the 500 hector old town every year. and that's too many . so giovanni la own a has a plan to save the special charm of venice. he's a native venetian and part of a network of activists. and he takes a stop in front of a special display. it counts the number of hotel beds in venice, quite so it's nearly 50000 the same number of people still living in the old city. for now, once you put a messy there with that a who were demanding and limits under number of tourist beds, if you need to get some time limit, has to be appropriate relative to the number of bits for locals. so that'd be time . you guys open ac, get the, get the vin. it has always been a popular tourist destination and venetians were okay with that. as long as the assess theory or districts were alive and the economy diverse,
1:50 pm
but things changed a few years back. nowadays apartments are intended almost exclusively for tours, as a woman living across the street chimes and that she's the last venetian in our building . her neighbors moved to the mainland long ago, where the price per square meters just half as much the featured have been any nation so struggling to maintain their community assured way of life. and that means what can be done. the city plans introduced admission fees to keep visitors down, but the project was stopped. instead, they've intensified video surveillance so that the public order officers can redirect into crowds of tourists. finally, to keep people from moving away, the city is aiding local families with their rent. the tourism officer also told us about another project the most him what i don't on the floor, not to that,
1:51 pm
we're considering having a reserve of the city shouldn't be to that cheap, altruistic services would have to be reserved in advance and what's happening or we're in the process of building the necessary digital infrastructure commodity comple yakking for us to to dollars. will venice end up a huge open air museum requiring an admission ticket? giovanni believes taurus will keep pouring in even if individual squares have to be reserved in the future. and instead of swarming st. mark's square though unpaid, the few remaining quieter neighborhoods telling you that they are my and now we're living in a reservation system, although the city is getting even fuller. and i think that these measures aren't helping regular tourism, and that is the 1st and foremost we need to put down and hotel bits the policy like because it's long island back to the public order officers. the tour seemed to be happy to comply with requests to clear off tax and standards. they seem to understand the problem. venice is just too beautiful for its own good.
1:52 pm
