3:30 pm
the next tech, the tech has to check the bags, so you're planning a trip to make sure you miss nothing about is on the w travel. i hope you enjoy the trip here as much as i did. what about you? what's your opinion? feel free to write your thoughts and the come in the hello and a warm welcome to this week. citizen, i'll focus on euro. my name is, let's show great to have you with us. your money is among the european countries that have taken in the highest number of asylum seekers and migrants in recent years. more than 200000 people have applied for asylum here just this year. some are currently living at the country's largest refugee accommodation facility, located at the former teagle airports in berlin. what was meant as
3:31 pm
a temporary shelter for migrants with just arrived, has turned into a crowd at home for thousands of people. alexandra and katerina from ukraine had to learn to cope with the noise, the lack of privacy, and was sometimes poor hygiene. i, like santa and catalina, are annoyed. once more, there is no soap in the bathroom. the 2 young women from keith had been living in berlin's former airport table for over 6 months. now. it's germany's largest refugee shelter. what should people who it's dirty here? yeah, the sounds clean properly. i've lived in different blocks since i arrived in february and it's dirty everywhere. yeah. it's very loud to which people are being moved on to other accommodations, especially the city and people with disabilities. the that's the big problem here is how many living rooms just not 16 people, 2 rooms essentially,
3:32 pm
occasionally to protect the refugee's privacy were not permitted to fill them inside the sleeping quarters. one resident though, send us a video to show how she's living their 77 year old little miller share, but now is outraged. she too wants to voice their complaints to us as do many others. there are people who get housing after 23, or 7 months, then others like me get nothing after one and a half, 2 years. where's the justice and that, why is it like that? around 5000 refugees are being housed in 40 lightweight buildings most have come from ukraine and are in this emergency shelter against their will. originally, it was supposed to be a reception center for ukrainian refugees, but with housing and berlin ever scarcer time in taiko has dragged out. some have now been living there for almost 2 years. i love you cuz we can't tell people,
3:33 pm
we don't have anything to invest and we have to how is everyone that does that? it's our legal mandate to me. image as more people have arrived, we've had to lower the standard thinking. that's what we're seeing here in table is not up to our normal housing standards or not, but that's because a large number of people have arrived in a very short time. comes in. over the past 2 years, a city within a city has emerged. over 1400 staff members, keep everything running, sport halls, nail salons, canteens, doctors, libraries and childcare. around a 3rd of the ukrainian refugees have found jobs. now their children must be taken care of. the shelter costs half a 1000000000 year as a year to run to see us. i know they have toya performed. it's a highly expensive form of how is it intensive? it's labor intensive and has very high operating costs. yeah, we have extremely high levels of consumption with electricity and meet oil and rental costs. the whole problem is the address. so well the standards of the space
3:34 pm
we're providing are the lowest on the spot. it's by far also the most expensive way to accommodate people up as is, but there's nowhere else in the city where we can open up so many spaces so quickly in their spots. the move please cut. so we'll see the pets as those notes are, shots of daily the staff. a table are on the receiving end of complaints and are sometimes even physically attacked. words of praise are rare to just. yeah, and he's not that i'm not supposed to have any mice for the unskilled work i do here, or in 10 times would have qualified worker in ukraine. does that only work as a janitor in a hotel level to host, keeping them for board? she nidia, which is the most overall, i'm satisfied with the way things are unlikely, but yeah, i'm grateful to german society and it's people go with this to look at that in the mean. it's coming out. all the units staff at the shelter are preparing to accommodate hundreds more refugees soon. some from ukraine, maybe also from 11 on they find the accusations unfair attack. so contact with the
3:35 pm
local population is also needed for people to truly settle here. that's possible, and that's something that the city can only achieve collectively that that's exactly the problem at tables. it's like an island and it's outside of normal city life. also, we're constantly surprised that some people have no idea that 5000 people are being housed at the former airport. that people can almost forget about the refugees here . of course, that's a problem, honey, minutes from your 1st guess. what does this not to, as i'm being 21 year old alexander wants to take matters into her own hands. she says wading is making her sick and that's why she and her husband are taking the initiative to learn german on their own. to them is one of the most popular types of fish in europe and some to and uh, fetching record setting price is an international auctions. but according to environmental organizations, many species are massively over fished just by b,
3:36 pm
e. u and individual countries having introduced quotas to protect the fish population. it is getting more and more difficult for traditional fishermen on the portuguese, as or as islands to compete against large trawlers. their livelihoods depend on fish processing companies, the fisheries authorities, and luck. their work day starts in the early hours. we cast off every day praying. we'll find some fish there is no fish locate in equipment on board. instead they scan the ocean surface with binoculars for hours on end. there are more than 30 votes like captain that we know is on the water surround. the 9 is or an island. competition is fierce to catch enough fish before the quote is reached and no more and may be taken the
3:37 pm
sequels that assign. we've been waiting for schools to notice chasing the small fish below and driving them to the surface. above the sea goals are feeding now they will use lives bank to attract the tune, water spirits out of the boat to excite the fish and start them fighting their biting. throw more bait a little further. this is the captain's brother in co owner and the fishing boat they inherited from their father. fishing has been sustainable for generations here. off to you as yours too, and i may only be caught with a fishing rod, and only those weigh more than 10 kilograms may be kept. net surfer, been there a 15 man on board with 15 families to feed then came the big shock. the fishing
3:38 pm
authority announced a moratorium on big guy to now effective midnight tonight. the captain edwina and his brother powell are angry. the names i've got any frustrating. we've been fishing for less than a month and now we have to stop spending the last few years. i've been really disappointing, and i mean, i hate to say it, but the situation now was much worse than when i started out there on the for just giving up as many others already have the sun slowly sense bringing this year's big guy to enough fishing to an end captain that we know asks at the academy if he can unload his catch. not for 2 days he is told because the freezer full yet another set back
3:39 pm
on the way back to port. he shows us who is emptying the seas. it's a person that should be outlawed, so they kill entire schools, especially the way they're used today is the last to put them into put them inside . they flow decoy shows on the surface the shop on, on past, facing the young fish shelter under them for protection from predators. but as of some of that, but in the end, they die in the nets. this for the mission, it's the net. so 2 kilometers long, 200 meters deep, almost 70 percent of the years fish are caught this way. the main european culprits of the spanish and french fleets smoke
3:40 pm
bedding if they don't want a lot of species to die out. they should ban it. the, the to be this is the 2 days later they can finally unload their cargo. the magnificent fish wayne, 70 or 80 kilograms are in great demand at international markets. the r i deal for sushi or a stakes inquiry may restaurants and should be a safe bet. but the buyer brings the next disappointment, or only 2 euros per kilo for the premium fish. the fish plant dictates the price. the authority had promised the fishers the deal, lower catch volumes with higher purchase prices. in the appeal that didn't happen when the thing they didn't even honor the price, some of the what's wrong with our government imagining they're in charge. so why don't they do some things known to? isn't that what we pay them for?
3:41 pm
the purpose of this good spelled the end of the fleet around 2000 jobs are directly and indirectly dependent on fishing. almost 240000 people live on the as or but more and more are leaving the islands, including the fisheries, children, finding workers. there's another problem says another fish boat captain is young loads is catch the slow at the bottom. if this isn't the end, we're very close to it, so the quote is too low, price of fish prices are low, cost fuel is very expensive. it's bad for us. i can't look my men any i on the boat was it makes me sick with his wife, but if we were in spain or france, a 1000 boats would be tied up here in the box. but there just aren't enough of us while it was on the van and saw not enough to matter. and in
3:42 pm
danger of dying out the i imagine looking out the window over the farm outside your house, when suddenly it's identical, appears out of nowhere in the ground. and everything is literally swallowed up by the ears. what sounds like a scene from a disaster movie has actually happened to farmer fy to sick. he has seen this natural phenomenon with his own eyes, and now he's worried about his future. because scientists have warned him that more and more sinkholes are likely to appear in his home region of anatolia in western turkey. they appear suddenly, and it just keeps coming. circular st calls some 20 meters deep and 40 meters wide
3:43 pm
. a deadly trap for humans and animals. here in the central anatoly and region aconia, they're appearing ever closer to villages and farms. including on 46 farm. in summer, the earth of one of his beat fields suddenly opened up a 100 meters from his home. yeah, middlefield to go that day. i truly believe the apocalypse had arrived one because with miss one miss it while them was and, and was calling the prayer and the be there was a thumping noise from below loops. if we didn't understand where it was coming from, i don't know, don't going to be there. then i saw the ground open up, throwing up in a fountain of water shot up into the air. you'll have to speak to me to be the experts from the university of calling you have come to examine and measure the whole they can hardly keep up with their work. there are now over 2500 holes in
3:44 pm
this area alone. for geologist for to a rec, sinkholes like this are nothing new for the region or excuse me, the letter that says that we've been observing a massive drop in the ground water level here ever since the early 2, thousands. it's caused by drought, climate change, and excessive irrigation of fields. seas back then the level would sink by a half a meter, a meter at most of keeping the governments of you. now it's several meters will be to be submitted. they can always designate, usually it says a spot lines often act as conduits for ground water when they dry up over the years or sink into deeper layers of the or it can trigger sink holes. rick has been researching progressive soil erosion for many years. there's a lot some only the areas, martin white are say from major subsidence in the colored regions. it could occur
3:45 pm
at any time. that's half the country, 16 years for a farmer of $46.00. the danger is far from over. he's discovered the next subsidence on his cattle running with a lack of space. he's had to sell some of his animals. i want to try to what should i do and start all over again somewhere else? him williams? i can't afford it. where should i go? any way on old old? where's it still safe for you? hideous these people affected like spots a sick haven't been offered any state assistance. so far all the authorities have done is put a warning. notices and fence off the holes. critics accuse them of failing to provide effective water management if sick and other farmers want to educate their fields, they have no alternative to ground water as they are literally digging themselves
3:46 pm
into a hole. the farmer is desperate. no matter how hard i tried to explain what we're going through here, i can't find the words i'm. it's really very difficult. the sick has to stay. he doesn't have the money to up and move to begin the geologist for 2 of the rick to can't predict when and where the next single will open up. though there are a few warning signs do. the other thing is, this is in the back of the if you notice, unusual accumulations of water, trees, or electricity pylon. suddenly leaning the cracks, appearing on the walls of houses or live the windows no longer closing properly answers in a couple of minutes of those can all be science that the earth about to collapse. magic is advisor will not, again is a 15. we're going to try it so far, nobody has fallen into a single and no houses up and swallowed up. but the scientist says that could
3:47 pm
change. the holes are appearing more and more along roads and railway lines. and that means not only that people's lives are in danger, but that important infrastructure is also at risk. so i assume that in the low taste is the central anatolia was once the bread basket of turkey. but whether agriculture has a safe future home here is more on certain than ever. so we live in the age of instagram and take talk where people don't only gets holiday recommendations on social media. but sometimes even she was travel destination simply based on how photo genic a place is. but what happens when the photo spots becomes too popular? to find out we travel to switzerland to ask the residents of the small village of
3:48 pm
east, that's about how they feel about their home. suddenly becoming a top tourist attracts and. and what does a south korean romantic series have to do with it? all there's lots of tranquil, alpine village, $400.00 inhabitants. swiss full floor, a playground usually empty and what's otherwise, just an ordinary peer on the lake. that's how it used to be. because today is our fault is both of run by tourists. most of them from asia every day they flood the small village by the hundreds pouring out of boats, buses, or rental cars in crowd appear for us. sophie against the alpine back dropped sophie and her friend have come from south korea to europe for just 5 days. it's are most important day today to come here. why?

3:52 pm
if you ask people what their lives, which is they'll probably say to live a happy healthy life to become 90 or a 100 years old, or still fits and enjoy every day to the fullest. but how do you get that? well, as our reporter found out, the people living on the italian island, i'm sorry i didn't. you may have discovered the secret to reaching an old age in good shape. until now angelo is 91 farming and his sheep are his life. his age doesn't stop him from working every day. so i'm not sure. but what if i stop doing this? i'll die. is my passion. it keeps me alive. before i leave, it may, should i sit in an armchair at home is throwing old throne like us. now i don't think the additional physically and mentally fit in old age here in the mountain
