he was actually on the underground railroad. if the lantern was burning that meant it was safe to come to this safe house. if you do not see that lantern burning, then there's danger. do not come in. it was there for a certain purpose, giving notice to the runaways that jacob burkle had a safe house here and that you can come in now. that that light is on. this home is called slave haven underground railroad museum. it is the burkle estate. it was owned by a man named jacob burkle during slavery. and he used this house to hide runaways who were escaping to freedom. so this house is very significant in that it is one of a very few safe houses that we are aware of in this entire area. so it was very significant in helping slaves to escape to freedom. jacob burkle was a german immigrant. he emigrated here to the united states after the german revolution of 1848 when a powerful and oppressive government was placed in leadership. jacob burkle left germany to avoid that oppression. so he along with thousands of other germans emigrated

they were so big they had street signs underground. see, like here, if you look at the ceiling, you see the metal posts from telecommunications lines and electricity. it was an entire infrastructure of a modern city brought underground. when the world turned in human on the surface, they created a human world below. i am often asked how i found this hidden world of war one. i didn't discover it. knownplaces had been since the war ended. there are many, many places, there were hundreds of them during world war i. thesey i came upon places, like so many other things i discover as an explorer, by sheer coincidence. i had met a bureaucrat from the french defense ministry related to another project and discovered he was involved in the planning for the 100 year anniversary for france. kind in that he made introductions for me to local officials on the western front. me toin turn, introduced local people on the western front. i got to know these people and they share their secrets. in turn, i have made an effort to render these beautiful wor

it is a french carving in a french underground city. it shows how the soldiers were trying to re-create a human world, a world of feeling, emotion, aesthetic, and a world that connected them to a life before war that helped them get important to them and that grounded them and that helped them get through a time that it's impossible for us to imagine. you know, during world war i there were over one million high-powered shells fired every single day for 4.5 years. it is beyond human comprehension. if a person was anywhere in the kill zone of one of these weapons, they wouldn't just die, they would disappear. there was a term called pink mist, which is all that was left of a human being after one of these weapons struck and they were in the perimeter of the bomb, and so this to me is what mass destruction means. it is just something that goes beyond anything we can conceive. and i fully feel like we are facing this risk today. they walked blindly, both sides, into a meat grinder that was right in front of their eyes, and yet they could n

underground means secret. they had secret methods of communicating as well. , along with the safehouses and hiding places. there was a secret language. enslaved africans were forbidden to read and write. they had to construct a language the slave master cannot understand. our great-grandmothers would hang their quilts on the clothesline to air them. when the hang them on the clothesline during slavery, they had certain messages. they would hang them in a certain chronological order that would give them a route to canada. these represent some of those quotes that were part -- quilts that were part of the underground railroad that had secret languages. that would be a monkey ridge quilt over here. that would be the first one hung on the clothesline and that indicates preparation for escaping. get ready because you are going to run away. the next one is the wagon wheel, your mode of escaping. whether it is a wagon, boat, or however you were going to escape. each quilt would hang out a certain period of time. you

the block of shrader is an underground utility district. my primary objection is that the proposed communication facility would include construction of a new taller utility pole within our underground utility district. the initial notice from public works dated may 25 described the project as equipment to be installed at this location: one antenna, one equipment enclosure, and the permit conditions from public works stated no new poles shall be erected or placed in underground districts. our neighborhood appealed the decision to approve the permit, and in mobility's letter dated november 5, responding to the appeal, they said that the approved location is ideal because it allows the use of an existing steel street light pole owned by the sfpuc, avoiding the visual impact of a new utilities pole. however, mobility's project plans supplied with their response letter specify in a call out in the drawing for mobility's contractor to remove existing streetlight pole and foundation contractor to place new 28'6" light pole. additionally, on top of

the underground market is trickier.e land and underground water are tied together it is treated like a surface right. if not, the landowner has to claim the water in a formal come along process. then they are free to buy, sell or trade. and they have to prove the water is being put to good use, no waste, no speculation. it is a small industry, $75 billion market. some investors believe it could grow to $500 billion in a decade. alix: the senate recently passed legislation to get state and water facilities subsidized financing to build water treatment plants and other projects. i sat down with chad to find the best way to invest in water. chad: we think colorado is the permiant of water. if you see how those valuations have gone from 1000 acres most recently, 75,000 acres, you can see $55,000 an acre foot being paid for significant water positioning. alix: how do you invest in it? chad: you can buy watered -- alix: literally? chad: you can buy it, storing is a different business. ui -- either by a because it is an aquife

who really needs the high prices to make underground mining financially viable. exploratory drilling has been successful according to military relations the lithium reserves would be enough for some ten million cars but environmentally friendly mining would still have to overcome several obstacles. and environmental protection regulations are very strict in germany as they should be stricter than other regions on earth like south america of course those restrictions will make mining more expensive. so perhaps lithium from germany could replace at least some chilean lithium. but there's another raw material that german car makers urgently need for their aleck trivia cause cobalt the batteries contain between ten and fifteen kilograms of the metal. nearly two thirds of the world's production comes from a single country the democratic republic of congo. president joseph kabila rules with an iron hand one way he funds his regime is by selling cobalt. this is where it comes from the mining city of coal raese in the south of the de r.c. some five hundred thousand peopl

that acid is still underground and continues to extract uranium from the door. to prevent the groundwater being contaminated the bismo team has to pump the water out of the tunnels day and night. these tanks are then used to filter the uranium out of the mine water. instead of being disposed of through radioactive material is sold. in the mid one nine hundred ninety s. that still amounted to six hundred tons a year by two thousand and seventeen the figure was just thirty four tons. of what i do see in mobile unfortunately the war perhaps fortunately the quantities of uranium we are now producing each year or extremely low that's due to the decreasing concentration of the modern water so the revenues are no longer high enough to refinance the separate step of the process basically that no longer makes economic sense instead an alternative has to be strong. for the time being however the uranium produced here in germany is being sold to just one customer. the us based nuclear fuels corporation supplies nuclear power plants around the world. where exactly the urani
