the forest fires evaporating large amounts of moist tune in to get the onset and learn more about the heavy and visible over the flows through the sky. start september 20th on the w. the hello and welcome to this week focused on europe. my name is was show and it's great to be back. the number of people in europe who are dying of drug consumption is on the rise. while hard drugs are illegal in most european countries, portugal has a different approach. the country radically changed its policies. drug addiction is

treated as an illness instead of being punished addicts are offered to help me regardless of whether they consume my one a cocaine or heroin. more than 20 years ago, particularly decriminalized, all types of drugs in the coastal city of porto and other parts of the country. it's mainly those who deal in drugs who have to face legal consequences. well, experts hailed a step as a role model for other countries. for to residents like kids, channels fill them, have a different view. he's unhappy about how addicts are getting high in his neighborhood . often with the police seemingly powerless, the charlton foil discarded bits of syringes and lodge. all evidence of drug use in the streets and punks of poets. christiano silver sees it every day. he lives in portugal seconds onto a city and

a middle class neighborhood. it's also a hang out the drug that's above and it's disrespectful to the rest of the society or they're using openly in the street. if it's come. yeah. if you don't like it, you have to cross the street and you have my glasses. and if you say it's not ok, they get aggressive difficult. that's something for them i've, you'll end. 2 political de criminalized all narcotics in 2001. no matter how dangerous anyone found in possession of less than 10 day supply. now just getting so fine. only dealers go to jail. we're on the road with police trade unionist who co maria. this is a drunk dealing area. we get harassed because we're filming. so we use cell phones to be discrete. we use caution as we trying to approach is a bit of a e as in go back there is there meetings, warranty?

it's better to avoid it. because they can get passed by put k put things together that is dealing is still prohibited. most drunk trains that may behind closed doors, want outdoor consumption isn't allowed. it really has legal consequences. it really mackey is game since we're no longer allowed to ramp consumers. the problem is we come across more and more, which way seems like this was made of the police have had their hands tied together with they never used to be seen as i saw for a few of those who can call to offer therapy and drug centers like this one was supposed to drones uses off the streets, but this is the, the ones in order for task show outcomes a daily to smoke, a comp, time of heroin and cocaine, under supervision, the over to man. so we're human beings,

6 of addicted to drugs. so we need a lot of houses we'll examine. we do a psychologist, deanna, castro is proud of point you goals drunk of the law. she says it's a way to entice those effected out at the shadows. after all, there are few a drunk dance. now, when the key in this and it goes to know, cleaning are the saddle when drug used as a crime, who's the attic stay hidden off the social radar? no, no. they don't accept treatment offers. simply because they're viewed as criminals, some quasi value, excuse me, not as people in need of health and that can assist you from that for you on his own. but that's clearly a lack of treatment surfaces. critics fear for public safety. in fact, we were also threatened along with a city administration employee. we got called trying to secret the film and this on the past.

it's an untenable state of affairs for patricio rep as old times, cheese the district map of remo. to want to point out his problem neighborhoods, the song, the meals on either side, this feeling of fear that the task of turning around and looking to see if someone will be hind you towards save you. it's unacceptable for the 1st place. yeah, we need more police as we see more patrols on the street, the less who wish the police you and you know, also calling for top emissions the we're doing our job for just doing our rounds. yes. that'd be open, but if there are no consequences, can you take it? i think we use the facility that takes the users and forces them to accept the treatment. i mean, so what facility with enough resources and professionals to care for the knowledge where they're not gonna bring on an individual. often more than 20 years of liberal and drunk policies, it is time to act says residential christiano, silver, caring for addicts is all very well,

but not at the expense of protecting the population. easily come up, it all leads to a sense that they can do what they like with impunity. people then gets a pretty dangerous spiral. yes. so scholars is left them to billy glosson. things settled down a bad thing. christiano is neighborhood after a big police operation. but some of the drug seen just move to another part of town . something that clearly doesn't solve portez problem. it's been 18 months since the beginning of the war in ukraine. currently, there are no signs of the fighting ending soon. so and the port city odessa, just as in the rest of the country ukrainians have learned to live on the marshal lo, these a and i totally is offering his fans a much needed break from constantly thinking about the attacks. it seems that's no

more than ever, people are even more determines to embrace every opportunity to celebrate life of the enjoying life is what it's about. because it all could end in an instance. they're partying for what it's worth. at the speech club in odessa, in a country at war, kind of totally is 23. he doesn't have to serve in the army because he is a student. so on the weekends, he's a d, j. fits music that i love above all else and i play to suit the crown. that means i find out what people are coming for and play what people need. but the party on the black sea is unfolding between anti aircraft guns in war ships were not allowed to show

either for security reasons. why like the ukrainian forces. and i'm also grateful that i can do what i love in such hard times. and that i can keep on working the dancers know that everything has to happen fast this evening. after all, there's still a curfew. so they drink and party hard and fast. deanna has invited a few friends to celebrate her birthday. we ask her how she manages to reconcile it of a birthday party and nights in the bunker. yeah, of course, moving out of the museum, i know that i could die any day. i won't regret having this party today because it's the only one we've had in 2 years. what's the, can't remember the last odessa used to attract vacationers from all over the world. now they're mainly from other ukranian cities. beaca new,

the same book. how is the water it's not too cold for me to go in here. what's the best? but it's a change of scene for us to see this couple won't give us their names. it's too dangerous for their family. maria paul. they fled from the russian occupied city last summer. but it's fine here, but our heart stood there. max v is 2 and a half. he's from odessa, but he can't really enjoy the c side as he wouldn't tease time. we don't speak sort of be startled by every type of noise each explosion. but even when something just falls down on the scared runs away and cry takes medicine regularly. ethan, we're seeing a psychiatrist to pick you up. i'm gonna hold them. uh oh, let's say in this 10 month old daughter you eva slide from new canyon city of nicolai's, or they're waiting it out in

a desk until they can go home again. new style, which is tied at this situation, tied about the uncertainty of lines, or we don't know what to do, some of us, and that's the worst things oh ukrainians. the sunset and the russians have attacked odessa again and again, over the previous weeks. a city whose center is on the unesco list of endangered world heritage sites. tablet was waiting for tourists in front of the famous odessa opera house so he can show them the city. mister display of history is developing in parallel and i want to share this part of a desk with others so that they can take a piece of the city home with them and not with sad and frightened faces shows this group a passage that was built in meet new style at the end of the 19th century, when odessa was part of the russian cyrus, empire,

the sites pins at the opulence and well, traces of which can be seen everywhere. more recently, pablo, it started to stop at places that russian missiles have hit. i just looking to see what beautiful ukrainian cities like odessa are being destroyed. it's in human fact that they've destroyed each back at the beach club in odessa. the party will soon be over because of the curfew and marshal alone. but maria still thinks it's important to celebrate life. life goes on for me as just the war, but without dancing, it's just not the same. even if there's a more money just before 10 pm, i know totally plays as last tune. something slow to bring people down. it seems as if he's clicked to switch nozzle. the last song was,

every thing will be, all right, that's why are very popular or yon l z. because i'm using the song to show people that sooner or later on, it's will when the war and everything will be fine in our country. he wishes us quiet skies as we go in this city. that means and nights without a rushing attack. back in 2015 the world get together to sign a landmark agreements to stop climate change, the paris agreement 8 years later, it's no surprise that the french capital is leading efforts to combat the rising global temperatures. gardner but into elaine is doing his bits. he has chosen the roofs of the cities, buildings as his primary battle ground, and his fights against climate change. the voluntary outlet is satisfied with this here's being harvest on the biggest rooftop farm and parents

. the whole load of things, you know, move for you. the most people who come here is surprised. they say they don't feel like they're in the hall to empower just remove all paris is undergoing a transformation. many are sick of the traffic jams and air pollution which make the summer's almost unbearable. the french capital is hoping to be climate neutral by 2050. so trees are being planted on public buildings and vertical force are cropping up. rooftops are turning into massive vegetable plantations not far from the eiffel tower, but on to our lives. rooftop farm is the biggest of its kind in europe. 1.5 picked air or the equivalent of 2 soccer fields. 250 grams,

make sure you put the lead on probably and for their food and vegetables are delivered to a supermarket. that's just 2 kilometers away. short distances mean lower c o 2 emissions. it's a win win situation for the environment. but what about the quality of the products? sean bibble ends because on the one hand, the goods here to record because everything is post by. but on the other hand, it's a very polluted environmental i have to admit, i'm not that interested in produce, has been cultivated in the city. i prefer fruit and vegetables produced in the countryside, but especially because parents is very polluted. the french institute for agricultural research is hoping to dispel some of the depths on this roof. there

are boxes for fruit trees and a piece of fellow land to test what grows here naturally. christine oakley and the institute are looking for a way to promote urban agriculture. she thinks that they produce ground on parents ruse is harmless. some german colleagues at the berlin university discovered about 10 years ago that as soon as you passed the 3rd floor, you're no longer in the zone polluted by traffic. she says these roof farms also have an educational function to see one twice or at least 3 or 4 generations of urbanites who don't have any education or direct contact with rural agriculture. so most of our children, grandchildren don't know what cultivating the tomato or style it entails, it could be too much in center. that's why i phone component to the rescue. the vegetable farm in the middle of

a typical concrete desert in the paris suburbs. a very good. how are you? it's with us. you go to work, is there a bit shy? that's what puts in it though he is less worried about air pollution then the contaminated ground by heavy metals for instance. but he's found a way of getting around this but didn't so think about as the story was broken up, the lead was thinking slowly, especially if i don't use any plants that would retain it or do anything if i don't use spanish lambs, right, as carrots or beat root that drop the lead, it was thing down with the principal. this is to who he has planted edible flowers . instead he says that tests have shown that they have no lead residues and chips loved them. level open pores take a tiny little grain, it tastes like leaks that level. it's pretty incredible and we'll see what i've

also said. as you know, many urban farmers are convinced that there are solutions to fight the problems that arise in an industrialized city. and the state is funding, visionary projects and farms all over france. there are already over $300.00 that's about me know tony and powers, but in all the big cities of france and even your there are more and more rooms being built in many architect to are already thinking about how to use roost vegetation and create green rooms benco facebook one day after the visit to this as well. and on to ali and his colleagues are planning to double their rooftop space in paris. this is where they see the economic and environmental future is one of the most popular countries for tourists from across europe is greece.

every year, millions of people visit the mainland or islands like next us. but recently the beach has, has been getting more and more crowded, and access to sun bids pretty expensive. local is like a journalist, a component have heading. that's the wants to reclaim the paradise right at the doorstep. it's an unusual sight. demonstrators crowd in greece is on the south beaches, but it's not a rarity these days. we want our beaches back. they turned the local journalist elena from po not is familiar with the anger and outrage on the island of knocks on the on. and those are being denied access to more and more beaches reserve now for the some lounges and umbrellas of the business community. okay, no, no, bob, send me over this. he'll be all of a sudden there's a free space out there on the left. normally it's crammed full of sunshine,

so it looks like they got worried about inspections, give us a meal, but they've just stacked the sun lounges to the side. and momma says they can't have known when the inspectors would come on the spot. the someone must have warranties enforced by us could we solve, i'll give you a given experimental volt charlotte business with my sunshine as your blue sea. the greek socratic, i know defax us as long ceased to be an inside the tip. every year, tens of thousands of tourists from greece and abroad, smoke to its long, sandy beaches access they supposed to be free. but in the meantime, businesses are cashing in mostly illegally local businesses. they count the beach territory bits by dance, and then rent out some loungers, umbrellas to tourists. some lounger with umbrella costs between 20 and 50 euros a day. even nature reserves and not safe as journalist from po now has discovered the if one of the an ex go for my there's even

a bigger here in the nature reserve levels for the woman they get the able to look at this is especially protected area. you know, with bogs and cyprus for it was in a particularly rare landscape in the sixty's island, new message, 50 glovers, all night sauce alone. thousands of joining the save. the beach is protest movement . today, a delegation is to deliver a petition to the items public prosecute over 1500 residents have signed the states being called upon to stop the fos on the beaches. it's the greek ministry of finance who's responsible for monitoring whether the tenants have contract. so not they are reaching the contract, but it is also a problem of the contracts themselves that, that they have. so the contracts themselves, the probably are no legal anyway. restaurants, i'm not your gas kind of what us as a government permits. so he's beach,

jazz. the fact that there's no more room for others on the beach is he says also due to the hot weather to in the high season were over run by tourist looking for sun lounges. and each time they went more appropriate when they literally big some of those products, i like the temperatures are rising without a sun lounger and shade. you won't last on the beach for more than 5 minutes, but most of all of your own just people, excuses, say more and more greeks. they won't the beaches back and not only on magazines throughout the country. they're a demonstrations against the profit tiers among tourist. the protests controversial . 1 i'm in favor of the protest. it's not good for everything to be privatized. a beach should be public property. and

i'm a fan of the sun loungers. it's more comfortable. and you have the sun and shade. i'm a customer unless it up. even a matter of nice awesome to mom's, that the government intervene against the lawlessness. the fee is for the reputation of design on this. i'm a visit to say they complain about this, the big issue, not only for an access for all of agrees because and this shows a lack of the code, the nation, the of the, the state, the ship. meanwhile, the government has increased its monitoring, and there are even arrests fearing inspections. someone collect a legal beach furniture at night, but the rena component believes they won't stay away so long of the the. so what happens when the storm settles and signs will be sent out or not?

that's just how the authorities work in this country. after some time, the parasols will be back as if nothing had happened in the fight. we'll start all over again. give us some additional towel. let's not lounges is the slow growing up. the next us protest is and beaches for a free and the winner of the bands lived. the beach is we'll know by next summer the from the beach has a ways to the swiss alps. part of the mountains is covered in permafrost, which as the name indicates, is supposed to be a layer of trust that is around permanently bud rising temperatures and melting glaciers are shifting the ground, pausing big challenges for decades, the whole tour in hot, which opened in 1949, defied wind and all weather, but that began to slip. it's located in a permafrost area above so much at almost 3200 meters. and as the permafrost melts

because of climate change crack, so farm. the thing is, if i could put all these, they are cracked as they are on the facade as well as on the inside of a volt in the 1st few days. so they were repaired years ago for the 10th of the north, but that's dying of the permit, frost is causing greater damage to grow. secretary becky gets installed many mountain cable. car systems are suffering from the same problem. the eggs store and which is almost 3000 meters high, is a popular destination. a tourist of a view of the great electric glacier, the biggest in the alps. but the ground beneath the mountain stations unstable. to the most of all of a height the last cable car pylon is shifting says and so is the station, but not in the same way. i don't know if we make regular measurement loss and move the pile on slightly and when necessary clean. if i see

a big and for most of all signal from the official se, safety is guaranteed, because the movements are monitored meticulously. but there will be a time and it will no longer be possible to make adjustments. that's why a new cable car system with the restaurant is being planned on negate sort of a posting state of the art technology. it will cost $35000000.00 swiss francs habits compared to what you all get about the look out into the station and a basin, and thanks to the hydronic price is in it and i will be able to compensate for the movement. so i know how to use it to get ahold of me. there is also building going on at the whole to and had a new hut is being built under the old one at a cost of $3700000.00 swiss francs. i know you had to go to repair the old had would have cost of the same as building a new a lot of police do hold like it or not. the mountain is moving. anyone who chooses to build on it will have to reckon with higher costs in the future. well,
