the river, the river is me."n. it's what i believe in personally as well. it means a lot to me. yaara: but in the last few decades this precious natural resource has been degraded. the water here is among the purest in the world, melting from snow off the peaks of the southern alps and glaciers that have taken thousands of years to form. from here, rivers like this one flow through farms and cities before reaching the sea. it's a process that could take anywhere between 2 and 100 years. but as these flows go further downstream, they're transforming into some of the most polluted waterways in the developed world. ♪♪♪ ♪♪♪ yaara: i'm traveling to the canterbury region in the south island, which has some of the most contaminated waterways in new zealand. this was traditionally sheep farming country, but it's seen an explosion in dairy farming. cattle numbers have more than doubled here in the last two decades. it's now one of the most intensively farmed and irrigated regions. one of the best ways to get a sense of ho

with this river, and the river feeds us, sina we mowed here, we used to go across the river in boats,s connected with this river here , well, if you compare, there are villages in the lechetsky region, where i was talking to these people, so... .if we gather, everyone who lives in pripyat, we have the whole conversation everything is happening around the ryaki, everything you tell me about doesn’t matter, everything seems to be connected with the river, i noticed behind them, they have mushrooms, berries, they don’t have a river, they, they have everything, all these conversations are connected with with these places, but with us it’s all in pripyat, somewhere there are friends, the first thing you ask is, did you go fishing or not , did you go, what did you catch, where, how much, what are the first conversations all the time about the river, oh the river, about fishing, because we are here, we only live this way, sometimes you get upset, you know something somewhere, some kind of stress i got it, well, it’s small, you come, sit on the bank, look at the water, you calm down , you tak

rivers fill up very quickly, these are very fast rivers, which in their run can carry away anything there this water does not linger anywhere and quickly , that is, such technologies exist, that is, that we we can do something like this, a solution, but here, unfortunately, all these decisions are not easy and they are not cheap, that is, these are quite large volumes that require, well, quite a lot of funding. over the past 100 years, global water use has increased sixfold and continues to increase. according to the un, every third inhabitant of the planet is already deprived of access to drinking water; by 2050, more than 5 billion people will suffer from water deficiency. russia is second after brazil in terms of water resources, accounting for 20% of world reserves. lake press water. the protection and rational use of the resource is discussed at the highest level. the most important issue is the exchange and transfer of technology. in russia, in this sense, quite a wealth of experience has been accumulated, both in territorial redistribution of runoff, development and irrigation, dev

so river course and the river bed. you have to have certainly at least the visually i mean you choose, but they want to have the highway on. so i mean, this is the cost of civilization, but still, again, i wouldn't mind even for the fall down and drink from from the service. i mean, is that of its fishing club protected and took care of the fish population of guitar and their cor lashing until the construction began at the time he was one of the 1st people to draw attention to the impending damage. the project would cause and the 1st group to listen to him was an engineer called man's sound, performed the phone when we began to question why a highway was even allowed to be built, that we were trying to find out if the state was managing construction properly. and whether environmental instinct is with doing the job that others work well. so i'm not sure i love that will let them as a government declared vital information to be subject to state secrecy. it was by no means the last of the we still don't know where the mo

of river.ost: from the journals what did they experience, what do we learn they were experiencing as they went north and west? guest: everything. grizzly bears, indian tribes, people they were amazed by because certain tribes would use a board to flatten babies heads and they had never seen anything like that. i think the variety, the sheer variety of the land. the people, the animals. everything was brand-new. host: was there expedition being followed contemporaneously back in 1804 through 1806? guest: a lot of people thought when they did not come back after two years because it took them two years four months in 10 days, they assume they were dead. and they had also sent back some things from fort mandan to jefferson, so they knew they made it that far. but once they got back, the newspaper accounts started host: firing up people -- like they are back. almost like robin caruso characters. host: we want to show you some video of some handwritten journal entries from the lewis and clark expedi

lakes and consumers close to those rivers and lakes. but we need to use every available option of use like you to look at. so not really a game changer, maybe not put in a town 40 kilometers down stream. the technology is being applied on a larger scale, some 1200 apartments. he, it will soon be heated with river water. the setup is different. the concept behind the system remains the same mission, your muscle as the vice and it. so here we want to take water from the river and pump pitch to the power plant that will collect it so that we have a continuous water supply. and the power plant will, she goes through the heat pump and it can be used for heating heights looks okay. the pump from the river to the power plant will be 250 meters long. the district hating 5 to the 1st to the house will stretch another 300 meters push this understood the connected piping network. we can then supply many different residential units and bundled and move together, and it's been doing buttons and that's the process is designed to minimize interference

the river. so we basically have a desert here that i'd say the water level is only a 3rd or half of what it used to me. and i read triple the unspoiled nature of montenegro is its greatest treasure. and well, this is exactly why to us from the west come here for the service is a sizable portion of one to negroes. longest rizza enjoys unesco protection. for a long time, the population had no idea that highway superstructures, bridge p is, would be built directly on the river that will probably take 3 or 4 years for any fish to show up. everything is all. how do i few extremely sad about what's happened to this beautiful rivers, which should have been saved by any means necessary, but of almost a to and this was probably like kaiser that supported according to european regulations mistress of highway here should have been as short as possible, the cartridge was dead, it runs a full 2 kilometers along the river bank to on the highway is being built by the china road in bridge corporation or c, b. c

you can probably see the river _ you, bring us up-to-date.r swale - you, bring us up-to-date. you can i probably see the river swale behind me, and the height and ferocity of thatis me, and the height and ferocity of that is a bit of a barometer of what the weather has been like. the river levels have risen and they were above what they would be. they have risen against in the last couple of hour, we are on the edge of the amber weather warning, that the met office have issued, the spine of england running from the north east down to the midlands on the eastern side of the pennines so we are on the edge of that, which is a warning of a risk of flooding and disruption, within that amber area. what that means is disruption both on the roads in west yorkshire, roads, at least one has had to be closed and on the railways for example at the moment there are no trains teen derby an sheffield and derby and nottingham because of the weather conditions, the station at roth ham is closed, we have also seen power outages to homes in the newcastle area a

there was one river warning in place, but not for the river that is really causing a lot of the damage and behind me, earlier today, this was flowing at quite some pace. i actually watch a wheelie bin from all the way down here and then veer off down another road, and you can probably see the water still coming down that side street behind me. that's heading towards the river, and along there are a load of terrace houses, and those people got trapped today, so what has been happening is derbyshire fire and rescue service have been sending boats up and down here knocking on doors and getting people out. in fact about the incident commander, if you just come over, the incident commanderfrom derbyshire fire and rescue, just talk us through what you have been doing today. throughout the day from about mid morning _ throughout the day from about mid morning we have been undertaking fire and _ morning we have been undertaking fire and rescue operations to assist the members of the public from residential and commercial properties to a place of safety due to the _ properties to a place of saf

the river by boats, did fishing , basically everything is connected with this river for us, well, ife lechetsky district, there are villages where i was there with talked to these people, if we all gather, who lives on pripyaki, our whole conversation takes place around the river. everything you tell me about doesn’t matter, everything seems to be connected with the river , i noticed behind them, they have mushrooms, berries, they don’t have a river, they, they have everything, all these conversations are connected in places, but with us all right, all right, let’s meet friends somewhere, the first thing you ask is, did you go fishing or not, wondered what you caught, where, how much, what was the first time. all the time about the river, about the river, about fishing, because we are here, we only do this, we live by this, sometimes you get upset, somewhere, you know, you got some kind of stress, well, just a little, you come here to the shore, you sit down, you look at the water, you calm down, you take off, well, negative emotions, it flows smoothly, you look at it, look, and calm

here, that the river gauge on the river peaked and hit a record level at a roundabout at lunchtime todayatis more recent reading to know whether that is going down or not, but it is the highest level since the gauge was installed in 2011. and whilst the floodwaters have been here in the floodwaters have been here in the town, we have seen the fire brigade going back and forth pumping out flooded basements further down the street, there is a garage that has also been receiving help from the fire brigade, and the fire service say they have been active right across north wales, pumping places out, pumping basements out, putting sandbags in place to try and defend those properties where they can. but so far, still quite windy, still quite wet, still quite a lot of water about, but things seem to be heading in the right direction. briefly, we can hear the rain on your umbrella behind you, but the outlook does look relatively better. that said, it is notjust a case of the water going down, there will also be an awful lot of clearing up to do in the river and the drainage system, which has basi

is the chelyasnaya river, that’s it, that’s it the river is small, well, it can be treacherous.n general, some areas were flooded, that they swam into houses, they just swam into the window with boats, there was water up to the window, they lifted living creatures, some to relatives, to friends, or even to attics, people got out of the situation in different ways, well, now the last one.. .. this is somehow already forgotten the treachery of the rivers, and so we live, look at the water , enjoy life, for me the police are mine , this is my small homeland, the police are my family, my children, my grandchildren, poleshuks - this means our people are from our area. pales concept from the woodland, the pinsk woodland is different from us, the people's speech is different, their way of life is different, we relate, i would say more to the mozrel woodland, it’s a sin to not like interpreters, as i am a magician, i don’t like the interpreters, as i was here... born and raised , i even have to love the interpreter for a long time, tomas is a good , calm village, hardworking, this is ou

so to me, come river. it's a charming city with its many temples, possibly markets, and historic buildings. traditions are preserved alongside them old mountain way of life. the fashion design of va income lives in that city passed on sounds top quality wave, ensconced, closing and bangs. think of silk or idea to combine the old with a new has been a great success. no, i used to, we have traditional patterns, but then i realized that everyone does that. so i wanted to design patterns that would be interesting for tourist lackland. now i make modern design that incorporate traditional allow patterns and motif for the kid they she designed the items on display here south. the income is one of the most successful business women in the capital. pat, this is a traditional lo powder, now lies pin at the top. it's traditional, but i've combined it with a new modern style at the bottom, and the patterns on the soak still go together and uh say, uh my customers liked the style and it sells. well. look inside my org
