the mara river post hotel does not use the river's water, but the river does give the hotel an advantage. raphael: i think the hotel will not be here if the river will not be here as well, because the river attracts a lot of games, of animal, so it attractcts a t of clients, , a lot of touristso come here because of the animal. reporter: making sure those animals get enough water on both the kenyan and tanzanian sides of the border. that's also an important part of the agreement that will be drawn up. raphael: they dodon't know the borderer that this is tanzania d this is kenya. and the migratioion, when they moved from serengeti whereby is found in tanzania, they go into kenya, whereby it is a massive mara game reserve, so they always overlap the whole territory. so, we have really a very big task for the two countries to make sure that we presesve this river. reporter: back in marasibora, siproza charles fears there could come a day when the water in the mara river stops flowing. siprozoza: the mara a river isy important for me because as you know, without water, t there is life. repor

everything north of the river was british territory. the whole idea was basically just to keep the fort standing and not let it be occupied. the british attacked the fort for nine days at the beginning .f may the majority was artillery bombardment. that's why you see these earthworks inside of the fort here. where the river british were bombing the fort from is actually nine feet higher, so they could look into fort meigs and see everything that was going on. general harrison overnight had the men construct these earthworks. they were originally 15 feet wide and about 15 feet high as well. this was to protect them from any of the cannon fire coming in. the cannonballs would bounce and skip and roll and then hit these earthworks. from there, american soldiers could pick them back up and fire them back across the river. there were about 1200 men here at the time. most of them were ill. general harrison really needed reinforcements. he had about 1200 men coming up from the kentucky militia and new they were on their way. the evening of may

the rhine is one of the most important rivers in europe. it's 1200 kilometers long . and over half of it flows through germany seanie because it is it's also a busy transport asiri industry lines its banks and much of its waste water is discharged into the river if it isn't cleaned 1st the water is contaminated and can't be used for anything else here before we're on the rhine sampling point close to the river bank the water is extracted from the river as it flows by and then 2 transported by each with a diameter over a meter directed to the water works. there the water is intensively cleaned before being directed back into groundwater reserves fired these shelfs the water treatment plant south of frankfurt is the only one in germany dedicated to processing river water. the infiltration process taking place in these tanks has a number of advantages. historical very and. historically surface water hasn't been used for drinking water in germany mainly because the potential for a disaster or the reiners unavoidable so we couldn't guarantee supplies around the clock and t

for years causing banks to collapse and rivers to change course. you know we're not making much water and i don't know where all those people come from or who they are there are so many digging machines i only know that they've come to get the sand. some neighbors have stopped by they say the river has carried away more than 100 homes some are still sleeping outdoors along with their children. yet above the sand belongs to everyone to el of us because people are taking it away and driving us to the brink of ruin at one point the villagers were so outraged they gathered on the riverbank to protest no no no we were standing from here to over there. we curse them on yelled go away go away. but they came back we're too poor so we lost. the rich people have won. here outside the capital numb pen there are piles of sand for the city's building sites and here this man works for an environmental n.g.o.s. 2016 we checked official shipping documents and discovered that cambodia had claimed to be sending a little sand to singapore but singapore registered man

it is time to refight the stenson river campaign. -- stenson river campaign. has -- stones river campaign. this spilled back out into the open. the records for stones river are interesting for two parts. first of all, several allow their feelings about the emancipation proclamation to show up in their description of the enemy and talk about the emancipationist friends and horrible language about the enemy that make sense when you consider they are written in february of 1863. but the big thing to understand is that bragg who gets the reports and writes his own, cannot resist the opportunity to strike back at those people and painting the people that were most against him in that referendum of sorts in january in worst possible light. to the point -- i have seen this nowhere else in the official records -- john breckenridge of kentucky writes his divisional report bragg writes an addendum and proceeds to use the polite equivalent of lie as much as he can and pointing out where breckenridge was wrong and at fault and pins the whole loss of the battle on john bre

do what you do is move that river.you simply divert the entire stream, someplace else, this elaborate operation and then get it down here. so as you can see, very quickly, it moves from this very simple, one to an operation into something that is approaching and industrial scale and, appropriately, according lee the changes become much larger, increasingly large, so this is a pretty drastic reordering of the environment, right? but that was nothing compared to the next step. the next step was still plaster mining of eroded gold. the next step is what is called hydraulic mining. hydraulic meaning using water, they are used water but this releases water. hydraulic mining first and peers, it's invented here. it first appears in 1853. interestingly, it was originally done as a safety device the goal here was in these ancient riverbeds, remember, i mentioned that before? it has been eroding for millions of years and a lot of that goal wasn't will reverse used to be. hundreds of thousands of years ago, thousands of years ago

many of the wealthy people in fall river had moved up on the hill as it was called in fall river, and had gotten electricity, plumbing and a telephone. andrew borden was a miser. they did not have internal heat. they were using chamber pots and for bathrooms. they had no telephone. it was a spare sort of existence given that they were able to afford those things. on the right, you see part of his real estate development. this was a building in process in 1982 at the time of the murders. he was making quite a bit of money in terms of being on bank boards and in his real estate and mercantile dealings. that's what we know. and we also have the evidence from the crime. i'm assuming you all know what the crime is, that you probably rhymeaid that childhood which i will be putting up. here it is, i will go right there. lizzie borden took an ax, gave her mother 40 whacks, when she saw what she had done, she gave her father 41. i remember doing jump rope to this. anyone have memories of that kind of exercise? interestingly, and i will have to talk to more of my music colleagues about this, bu

up the river, not down in the fall. it is getting very cold. the river is a virtual torrent. i followed benedict arnold's trail into the interior of maine to quebec. up there, up north, there is still nothing up there. if there is a street name, it says arnold. he led his men up there. it is an incredible story on its own. he is there with daniel morgan. the great rifleman. aaron burr. it is an amazing cast. they make it and get to uebec. he would be known as the american hannibal. he was a hero. they finally would storm quebec at the end of the year in a snowstorm. montgomery, who had teamed up with him by that point, would be killed in the early going. benedict arnold would be badly injured when a bullet ricocheted off his left leg. it would not succeed, but it was still an amazing feat. he would be reassigned in ontreal and be a vital element in leading the retreat from canada back down lake champlain. chapter two of this book takes us 360 miles north of new york to lake champlain, right near the canadian border. it is benedict arnold with a fleet of about 15 vessels. many

you follow the ohio river and then come up to get to the maumee river, this land that is a suitable homeland for folks to start moving into. it is important for anthony wayne to start to come up and provide the safety of the settlers living around these areas. as he pushes farther into the northwest territory, or the maumee river valley. anthony wayne begins his travels 18 months after he was commissioned as the new major general of the u.s. legion. as he marches up, it takes him one year from 1793 to 7094 to travel the length. turtle is watching. as he does so, they attack anthony wayne's legion. he realizes this army is different than the other two armies he had previously faced. he goes back to the ground counsel and says this army is different. he says i am not sure the british are actually going to involve themselves in our fight. we might need to consider negotiations. at this point in time, the council votes and they decided they want to continue with military action. when they do decide that, little reign tonds over the blue jacket and he is warrior minded and he is ready to take thi

c must raise up the officers he sent pittsburgh and then down river to cincinnati and then 120 miles north all the while was told train the men and with that legion of the united states train them so perfectly that would washington says go you go in when you can be so aggressive that you frighten the indians because of the negotiations from the spring of 1792 he is now ordered until the summer 1794. >> so the battle comes about the summer 1794 and for george washington to negotiate with the indians for two years they told him no. the ohio is the border river get out of the ohio country we will never know that he gets so worried we will not win he even offers the ohio river as the border once said you could have it all and they said no there is great hostility. stat of our country forever. so what sets george washington off is this place in 1794 he still negotiating with the indians the british come down from detroit they should not be in detroit that is american soi soil. because of them for to miami is here. you can see the remnant of their forte. saying we're protecting detroit but

then ask at a company for us the purpose is like a european version of the amazon river. this place is unique because people can come here and see what rivers used to look like what nature in europe was like once . and if we could preserve these large areas of wild nature we're also hoping to keep the ecological balance on the european continent along sickle you skew. the proposed waterway would cut straight through 11 nature reserves and the activists say it could destroy a unique ecosystem the canal is supposed to connect to the baltic sea and the black sea its route goes through one of the last big wetland areas in europe with rare black older forests. 90 percent of the birds in bellerose live here including endangered species some animals nest directly on the untouched banks. this is tall covers 35 kilometers along many narrow wild sections of the river which would have to be dug out to allow commercial traffic. when the group stops for a break they talk to local that's about the pan of water way. often people in the villages only have limited sources of information a

the hudson river. here it is arnold working his way up and down the river on the barge. all of this. and then when it comes to philadelphia, it's on the delaware river. water is absolutely important there and joseph plumb martin , that long-suffering continental soldier, the british take philadelphia, but they cannot get their ships there because they have to get by a series of forts that the americans had built. one of them was named fort mifflin on mud island. it's just a pile of mud at the confluence of two rivers and they had sort of a fort and it's almost like world war i. trench warfare where they are getting pounded, pounded. if they can hang out for another week, the british will be forced to evacuate philadelphia because they will not have the provisions. they're out there and eventually they succumb. once again, water was everything. the british navy, they had they controlled the coast. that is why the internal waterway was so important. when it came to the battle of long island and the loss of new york, washington never really had a chance. the british had com

we are sitting alongside the river, which is the largest river that drains into the great lakes. i will tell you, the redevelopment along our riverfront would not have been possible without tens of millions of dollars of federal money coming in here, to clean up damaged sites. federal dollars were essential in preparing the private sector for reinvestment in the heart of the city. refugesoint to wildlife that have brought tens of thousands of visitors here for our birding areas, among the most precious on the continent. we helped clean up lake erie once, and now we are doing it again. the construction of shipyards on the riverfront region would not have been possible without federal funds. the interconnected, multimodal transportation not possible without the federal government. the federal government has to be a partner for enterprise, at a time in our country when private enterprise so often chooses to locate abroad, rather than reinvest in this country. >> our cities tour staff recently traveled to toledo, ohio to learn about its rich history. to watch more from toledo and oth

the three rivers are part of the terrain. i remember a long time ago, the historian richard mcmurray giving a talk in which he said that the three big rivers of the atlanta campaign were major impediments to sherman's operations. i completely disagree with him. those rivers, and that is the oostanaula, just south of the resaca, and then the second one is the etowah south of kingston and cassville, and the third is the chattahoochee, short of atlanta, they were natural barriers, yes. sherman however had little difficulty crossing them, primarily because the confederacy had not bothered to contest the crossings. they did not position significant numbers of troops to harass the federals as they tried the difficult task of crossing those rivers. passive defense by johnston, even by hood. there were a couple of exceptions to that, yes. but for the most part, the crossings were largely uncontested. the federals had good pontoon bridges. they had people who knew how to lay them, too. the rivers were no impediment. now then, to the m

so this is the tama river and this is one of the main large rivers that runs through tokyo.rn end of tokyo and you can see just how swollen it is already. there is now a flood warning in effect for people living on the banks of this river, because, as you can see, it is already very, very high, there is still rain falling and this is the real dangerfrom a typhoon of this size. huge rainfall has fallen over the last few hours, up in the mountains to the west of tokyo. now all that rain is coming down these rivers, swelling them, and it's in danger of breaking their banks and this is just one of dozens of rivers along the coast here. it's always the big danger from these sorts of events, is water. water is the thing that can do real damage, both if this river bursts its banks, if it causes landslides in the mountains or, of course, when it reaches the sea. as the tycoon comes up the coast in the next few hours, it will push a storm surge ahead of it and as it meets the water coming out of these rivers, that can cause flooding along the coast. so this is the real test, the next

some look over the river so search always this idea that. we have the chance to give the world something that the life of the people of the future something that they don't already have and i think that power is the true power of architecture. the danish which was a brought his vision to life from the inside and outside as you move through the structure the walls gradually become the feel one ceiling and vice versa. even before it was opened to the public his creation was the talk of the town living in the neighborhood i'm really proud of this business world class party. brand new respect their right. to it through the horrific pictures arthur's going to. the 60 meter long scott transponders across the river runs how. it serves both as a bridge and a sculpture as it connects to parts of the case to force museum the sculpture park opened in 1909 on the grounds of an old pulp mill the same landscape that used to be littered with logs from the surrounding forests has been transformed into an open air spectacle of it includes masterpieces by art

she decided to make his primary defense north of the river. he put 250 of his men that were anchored on both flanks of the river. they had suffered a horrible wound at the bloody angle. part of his head was taken off. he went home to try to recover. when he was notified of the crisis at the bridge, he got into a wagon and had pillows prompted around his head. the rest of the old men and young boys remained on the south bank of the river. small volunteer cavalry units were put on the flanks to notify him of any attempt by the yankees to cross enforce up or downstream. another division led the cavalry south. the brigade served as the rear guard. the tracks ran to south from a depot called roanoke a depot called roanoke station right here. the tracks were elevated as they traversed the ground between the depot and the bridge. there was a large, grassy field with growth almost shoulder high. the ground was separated by drainage ditches. if you go to this wonderful battlefield park, has anyone been hearing to the state park? three or four people. p

we are really trying to hold the russian river valley right now.aking a westerly push in the geyserville area. and obviously we are at the mercy of the wind at the moment. the advice we have now is if you were in the area that is being evacuated, evacuate immediately. this fire is moving with significant speed and if you need extra time and you're out in front of the fire, think about evacuation and grabbing belongings as quickly as possible. we do have large resource orders from throughout the state placed in mutual aid systems and we will be getting people coming in throughout the day. as well as the incident management team, cal fire incident management team will assume command of the incident due to the size and scope. >> if i could break them because this time we are looking at live video and it looked like a home was burning and we did get an update that two structures, not confirmed homes, but can you tell us how many homes if any hepburn? it looks like a home we're looking at right now and how many others or threatened? >> yes. it's too ear

in the old days there were plenty of big and small fish in the river but now even small fish are hard to find at the d.l. and yet this year is the worst the water is too low i have to cast my nets over and over again just to catch one. the mekong passes through 5 countries on its journey from the highlands of the tibetan plateau to its sprawling delta in vietnam and it's dotted with hydroelectric plants along its course china has completed 11 of them so far in its quest to meet the country's growing energy needs china has power because it's upstream it can build dams at will and it downstream countries and communities cannot do much about it because it produces carbon free energy hydroelectric power is viewed as renewable and sustainable but critics of the news a a very down and others being planned along the mekong say that as the mighty river is harnessed and slows to a trickle the impact on its eco system and the people who live along its banks will be devastating. as the u.s. china trade war hits asian economies regional leaders creating their own pact to foster growth the regiona

they're now in storage a few meters away for when times get better if they ever do the mekong river is devouring this village it's changed course and now flows faster the river has carried away entire buildings here the government has placed sandbags along the shore as a makeshift barrier what used to be an asphalt road is now a new waterway these boats are currently empty and riding high in the water on the return trip they're heavily laden with endless tons of sand a fisherman shows us the dredges extracting it from the riverbed locals don't know who they belong to. the many congress changed it didn't used to be this white used to be able to swim from one side to the other you can hear what was being said on the other side and the water wasn't as deep as it is today. he positions his fishing out here by the river bank every morning and used to catch plenty of fish throughout the day today though once again his net remains empty. across asia rivers and seas are being robbed of their sand which is needed to construction sites in faraway cities. glass cement asphalt all vital materials
