his nuclear ower shades of green. his nuclear power green _ shades of green.ear power green energy? the i power green energy? the taxonomy wants to be a classification aimed at helping financial markets define what is green and what is not green with the ultimate target of avoiding greenwashing and accelerating green investments. now three weeks ago the european commission proposed to insert nuclear and gas into the european union taxonomy. this is a controversial choice. the european commission is not giving a free pass to these technologies it is imposing certain environmental requirements environmental ngos, policy makers and others in the parliament et cetera have made a very strong push back saying that these are not the fields of tomorrow so they should not be part of this green classification. this is a heated debate we are currently having in europe. ok. heated debate we are currently having in europe.— having in europe. ok. tell me about this. — having in europe. ok. tell me about this, how— having in europe. ok. tell me about this, how achievable i h

and nuclear obviously is not green, it's risky, it's costly and at all. so it's not sustainable at all. so, and on the other hand, also far too far, so natural gas is not sustainable because it creates high emissions. and both should not be long to this you regulation, all this taxonomy because we need to channel the investments into renewable energy, into energy savings and electric mobility and all this. and both technology is nuclear and foster natural gas hinder the transition. so that's why it's so important. but the argument, of course, for both of those is that they are essential to getting us to a point where we have enough energy. we're emitting less carbon dioxide. in the meantime, in the meanwhile, we don't have the renewable sources to, to make up for it. while the most important thing is that we have now to invest because sir right now we have a certain share of nuclear natural gas right now in the system. but it needs to be rig declined because natural gas is to emission intensive and nucleus too costly. it also takes a lot of time to constr

it's stunning that that would be used and to label nuclear as green and sustainable. and that's a decision that will help france the most the country with the most nuclear power plant in europe. and a country which relies on 70 percent of his electricity from nuclear power plants and they're old and the need investment. and so this would allow them to get international investment for their power plants. but it's, it's angry. is angered activists are, you know, because they say it's going to take away money from, from renewable and green projects. so when a francis staying with nuclear, what is germany getting them? i yeah, that's right. i mean, we've heard obviously that there can the complaints of the green party in germany. but the other aspect of this draft was about gas power plants and it would a low gas power plants that meet certain criteria to be considered green. no, that might just suit the german government because they're looking to fill the gap that's left behind from the decision to shop nuclear. but energy experts are not happy. one expert advising the

green architecture is also meant to protect the climate. one famous structure is the bosco, vertically or vertical forest. the milan, italy, boasting or the $900.00 trees. it was conceived by italian architect stephano bodhi . ready across europe, visionary buildings are springing off where plants play a major role like the grained waste incineration plant. a coven hill in copenhagen by danish architect, bianca ingles, or curb bergen sy, in dusseldorf, by german architect, chris of england. hovan. a building shall holding 30000 hedges across the globe designs by the single po based whoa ha, aquatics shine as green superlatives like this multi story luxury hotel with swimming pool conceived as a grain oases. right in the middle of densely populated cinnapool back in berlin. the latest project by green to answer is a public park on the top of a private building. construction is about to begin with. it has it in no global. it's really a global challenge. and that's why there are architects worldwide tackling at a net. and i think we should net

green bonds. now, if the rules approved later this year, it means that a company or an investment bank could tethered rein credentials despite investing in essentially 30 energy. now germany is phasing out nuclear energy, but the government there says gas is an important bridge to cleaner energy sources . and the expansion of renewables in germany is considerable. for critics say that it's not ready to replace the reliable energy production brought by gas and nuclear . you states, such as france, meanwhile, gets 70, which gets 70 percent, roughly 70 percent of its power from nuclear. they see nuclear as crucial to facing out to you to admitting coal energy they want nuclear power included in that taxonomy. or earlier i spoke with andreas hepner, he's a professor of operational risk banking and finance. at the university college dublin school of business. he's also a member of the platform, unsustainable finance. that's an expert panel, the counsel beer being commission in its development of that t

that's my kind of new green deal. but what bothers me again, this bumper sticker is that this is a continuation of dealing with the 2008 financial meltdown which the ruling class got concierge service. then we go into the pen demik, we go into an economic crisis. again, we see the same kind of bail out here, and now i see the green new deal. and again, i am not against the ecology, but what they do, they're getting us attuned to a crisis environment. everything is a crisis. that's why you have no rights. that's why you can't do anything. all you have to do is obey because it's a crisis, everything's a crisis. and this is what they're trying to paralyze us and accepting less what we don't deserve less. go ahead tony. you know, i would also, i would agree with that better. and i would also say that what i don't see is, again, this connection between these green investments and helping the people that need help most natural, you know, the guys that are manufacturing solar panels or coming up with these latest screen tech

i want to come back to this point about this green label. what do you think the consequences would be of this going through? i think that we are in a discussion at the moment from the german side. it makes sense that we better the conditions for the, for power plants that are based on gas as we see gas as a huge component in transforming energy supply from, from fossil energy supply to green energy supply. so we're in this stage of discussion by now, and it makes sense to, to better the conditions for this green way so that many european countries can agree that this is the way a think france will follow this way. as soon as they see that it is without that many risks, but with the big game for economy and the environment as well. we'll have to leave it there. michelle cruz it from the free democrats, the speaker and energy policy for the party. thank you very much. thank you. you're watching dw, still the come on our show. 19 year old sarah rutherford becomes the youngest female pilot to fly solo around the world. will hear about the highs

ah, this is dw news live from berlin should nuclear power be seen as green energy? the european commission says yes and is planning to make some nuclear power and natural gas plants eligible for green investment. but not all you member states back of that plan. also coming up, it's usually the other way around. an unidentified person crosses south korea's heavily fortified border into north korea. we'll look at how they might have done it. what's behind this possible defection and german football giants? by and munich, i'll hit hard white cove at 19 infections. we'll take a look at how the pandemic is affecting a sports top flight ah no manufacture mckennan. welcome. 1 to the program, the you is planning to label energy from nuclear power and natural gas as green sources for investment. that's despite internal disagreement about whether they actually qualify as sustainable options. nuclear power plants do not admit greenhouse gases and they could be counted as environmentally friendly. if there are detailed plans available for disposing of the radioactive waste safe

the green party received huge support during last year's election . could that momentum still be felt at the conference where we've seen that of the 1st few weeks in government of analynn, a babel chemical about topic as foreign minister and economy minister have been welcomed positively, also in the press, also internationally and also within the party. so that is something that was also felt here at the party conference. this is a moment for the party to take stock and to start defining the future of the party, the next steps, and start to fit in to its new role as a government party, which they hadn't had in the last 16 years. but certainly there is enthusiasm here within the party to now be in government and to bring forward green policies in a strong way. daily is juliessa delhi reporting from the greens party conference. thank you so much. american football superstar tom brady has announced his retirement from the sport at the age of 44 quarterback, played his last 2 seasons with the tampa bay buccaneers, with whom he won the super bowl in 2020

what are you hoping to achieve as the youngest ever co leader of the green party? well, i think there's 2 talk we have to handle the same time as to cream party or us. we just charge the coalition and the government. at the one hand, we have to put the things we have now. a coalition pay put into reality from a child guarantee free to exit of coal. and on the other hand, we have to gain the trust of more people and get more people to engage with person to trust in us, especially in rural areas. and i think we as a party of to play our part in getting these chops to fit together a party did receive huge support and last year's general election. how are you planning to maintain this momentum and reach even more people? i think 1st of all, we have to show that it makes a difference. if the greens are in the government, the life of people is getting better with us being in the government. not the other hand, we need to look at the parks where people still maybe have some feelings off. well, i don't really know whether to trust them, especially people who don't have a l

the german client minister described this proposal to libel nuclear power green as fraudulent. it's a heavy statement. why does this issue? so charging well, let's remember, german is switching off its nuclear power stations. a decision that was triggered a decade ago after the fukushima nuclear disaster. so it's stunning for a lot of germans, that the taxonomy acts that the u commission has his is working on, which is a landmark labeling system would be used to classify nuclear as safe as green, a sustainable. and what that would actually mean for front is that they would be able to attract vital investment and from, from around the world to help it keep it as nuclear energy plant going. and it 70 percent of fronted electricity comes from nuclear. so it's really important to france, this is a big victory for france, but also a bit of a kind of kick in the teeth for the germans layer. right. and, but it's not just nuclear in this scenario is not noise, social gas am. and the other aspect of this draft proposal would allow certain gas plants that are built before 2030 and meet c

should nuclear power be seen as green energy? european commission says yes and is planning to make some nuclear power and natural gas plants eligible for green investment. but not all member states back the plot. also coming up with lebanon and economic pre full, we have a special report on what length members of the armed forces are having to go to, to make ends meet and german football giants by and munich. hit hard by cove at 19 infections. we'll take a look at how the pandemic is affecting the school's top flight. ah, i man, you can mckinnon. thanks so much for being with us. the you is planning to label and the g from nuclear power and natural gas as green sources for investment. now that's despite internal disagreement about whether they actually qualify as sustainable options. nuclear power plants do not admit greenhouse gases, and they now could be count said as environmentally friendly, if there are detailed plans available, the disposing of the radioactive waste safely. the proposal comes just a day off to germany, shut

so when you're, when you're up, what you're saying is like the, the new green deal is that all the green goes to a small group of people. is that what you're saying? i'm saying that there could be a justification, a justification. yeah, absolutely. petra hired, i want to get i want to get tony in here. go ahead. jump in tony. you were you. i won't lose my joke. i hope you liked elaborate. go ahead. yeah. well again, i agree with my colleagues and i was going to, i think my, my, my little separate plug, which is about the green issue that none of us, if you noticed, have been talking about the climate crisis or anything. and i know the guardian and some other newspapers have actually change their wording to make it a climate emergency climate crisis. and instead of simply climate change, like you see in the state and, and yet no one really is talking about that because i, i'm not sure that that really affects people when they're trying to put food on the table when they're, they're working when they're getting a job and so you know, i'm not trying to belittle people to care more, more or

owner of next green. we are a local restaurant group with a restaurant two blocks away and i live in this area. it is very disingenuous that we are bringing something new and different to the neighborhood. this could not be further from the truth. sweet greens is a direct knock off of mixed greens founded in 2005. i run this today. to say they are unique on their focus is false. compare our menu or the asian box. they are offering food widely available in the neighborhood. multiple restaurants thrive in our wonderful city. this needs to be done on equal playing field. sweet green is in a different league of restaurant companies. it is public restaurant companies like mcdonalds and dominoes with billons of dollars to put smaller restaurants out of business. they have raised over $1 billion to open 150 restaurants. if you letted that sing in they have $7 million for each restaurant they open. they will send $2 million to build this restaurant. $5 million for them toio use in acquiring customers who are deli

better green new deal. and these are marketing slogans for what actually to justify another huge yep. move of public money into the hands of monopoly capital they're claiming to be addressing the concerns that of people make it. it's like a recognition of the anger of the masses, right? a recognition of the anger against inequality, inequality between classes, inequality between countries. this, sucking up of all of the world's wealth into the hands of a tiny monopolist elite. people are angry about that. and so there's a kind of recognition in the buzzwords that people are angry or they say things like, we were going to build in resilience. we're going to make things more equitable, more sustainable. what they actually want to do is persuade us to let them spend a huge amount again, of public money on popping up big capital. this time they'll call it in the, in the i'm of being green. right? they want to persuade us to throw away things and buy new things, and this is green. they want to persuade us that w

what was the year that the great green dream? that's a rude awakening. we all felt it in our bills, but no. where like europe, power gas prices are up for 500 percent in a year. this wasn't what your average green party propaganda, booster promised. europe was supposed to go from a dirty oil burning wasteland to a green renewable paradise just like that, which was never going to happen. this isn't hindsight, this was foresight 11 years ago when german business leaders laughed at the very idea. he miss kitchen, german society doesn't like nuclear energy and i don't want to comment on this, but i don't understand how you hit you home. you don't want gas you on developing nuclear energy or what are you going to do and firewood? you don't have even that. he doesn't get aside period to get a file. jokes aside, pragmatic minds knew that the transition to a carbon neutral society would, would take decades. and it wouldn't be easy. they built newer, clean power plants and new pipelines. natural gas will be a crucial pub energy mix in europe for a long time. new

is essentially green washing label in nuclear energy as sustainable is wrong. this is a high risk technology. it is questionable whether these greenwashing will find acceptance on the financial market at all. that we think nuclear technology is dangerous. we still think the waste issue is resolved. we expressly reject the assessment on nuclear power. under the commissions proposal investment, the new nuclear energy facilities should be classified as a group if they meet certain technical standards. now that lead to accusations that the commission is he destroying the credibility of the european eco label for financial investment with germany leading the charge of nations against these proposals. that could put it in direct collision. of course, with the blocks of the heavy weight that is france, 70 percent of energy here is generated from nuclear power. so, convinces president mach on nuclear is a way forward. he's a 1000000000 euro investment expanding the industry will go home in order to guarantee fence his energy independence to ensure our country's electri

green energy. right, so nick, it's probably did not come as a surprise that this proposal was brought out on, on new year's eve. i well everybody was distracted. that being said, i'm the you. a commission came up with his plan to become climate neutral by, by 2050 and for, for this to, to be able to achieve this of phasing out of fossil fuels will be necessary, as well as that the transition to, to clean energy such as solar energy for example, and that cannot be done overnight, obviously. so nuclear energy kind of is seen as a compromise here. it has relatively to, to no emissions. but at the same time, it's extremely at hazardous, as we've seen in the, over the past decades in journal bill in ukraine, or if in 2011 and in japan and fukushima when and when something goes wrong in a nuclear reactors can be extremely, it can be detrimental to the environment than the people living around these nuclear power plants. so critics are now saying that the commission is actually in order to achieve this co
