w, w, f. they are now only 15 to 20000 side of screens in india to date. some of the biggest threats. and therefore, not surprisingly are because of the way in which human beings are using the landscape and how to change the use of the landscape. so in my, the british for example, when, right, and we was replaced by the cash crops. so you've been, we see that the number of cranes that exist in the, in that entire state in the area that has been, had it, has it used quite a lot the cranes preferred habitat is that land for the she's home to some 2200 square meters of wetlands and area twice the size of hong kong. but now some of these valuable ecosystems are being destroyed to make way for so i feel according to the non profit red lines international, india has lost one 3rd of natural wetlands over the last decade. and if lines disappear, the greens will do. i shall hussein from the life of india points out another problem, garbage problem. ya, big sickle cell. the problem is that this very land was in its natural estate a few years ago, but in the meantime, it has been leave. the laser has converted direct land into smaller bonds, as you see because he lives on a scope on scope neutral ship, which is currently several years ago. the vine life just of india launched a special conservation project to protect the greens habitat. those one of the aims of the project is to register unprotected wetlands as the wetlands funds of ation and management rules in order to protect them from exploitation. so far, the project has just stood. $37.00 of the $51.00 identified wetlands in the region . meanwhile, a group of more than 151 and years act as far as the mythos or friends of the scientists, including jedi aniseed denali. the local community has also invested in protecting the board and its dad. as part of a state wide project. i'm going to go down galia was invited screens and indicate that also because if they're outside of screens, it means there's water over at lance. and if there is water, then it said it's not. so it's an indicator of agriculture. so weak on with the local community to join us. and they did a lot of since 2013, more than 20000 pharma, one and 2 years across stan districts of the for these have joined the project. they meet up regularly to monitor water quality in the red lines from i think it's on the checks appear temperature level, high chlorine ammonia fluoride. what sort of an hard now is asking a little funny why whether sunny joined the wetlands projects 8 years ago and has witnessed a change not just in human behavior, but also cleans with other other service k. it's aren't threaten here anymore. they're still at risk from cheaters and jackals, but not from the birth of the since the 1st census in 2013, when 600 cider screens were counted in easton, author produce a region where conservation efforts are still a relatively new development. the population has more than quadrupled the saddest green has also adapted. so the evidence seems to suggest that the greens have learned, do figured out that delicate is, does not have enough support for 2 birds to feed the chicks. and so they need a 3rd blood of the headboard. it's adaptive behavior. there stood the resilience of the bird and tanks to therefore the from growing number of dedicated, wollen, dears, but halves, it won't be long before the cause of the side. a screen will be heard more often. the fresh water boil muscle is a globally endangered species. priced for the delicate gym. populations have been decimated by hunters, agriculture, and water pollution. conservationists in germany are working to boost their numbers . and that this next report from southern bavaria shows that can involve some pretty heavy machinery. the restoring this stream, the pastime in southern germany, requires a 20 ton excavator with 150 horsepower. but something a stream runs through meadows before eventually feeding into the danube. one of the longest rivers in germany. biologist, marco done. it has been working in the region for several years. many of the various waterways abruptly degraded as a yonder and give us ox smith. thea, this stretch of water has no structural variation. the tunic of you can see that it doesn't vary. the water flows at a uniform speed, and the bed consists of only sand and small pebbles. were there aren't any largest stones or boulders on the golden stein in the face walking? de, basically there aren't any naturally occurring structures in the stream that provide variety and help stabilize bed is longer involved in. so does kate's streams like this one were adjusted to suit agricultural needs? for example, by making sure the water flowed faster to make it easier to drain meadows and farm land in wet weather. can audi almost on this sort of situation is not good for wildlife vinegar? because a lack of structural diversity in nature, leaves wildlife with less scope to find a suitable habitat when so frankly, the excavator is helping to re introduce that structural diversity. distributing boulders, stones, and tree roots, and leveling the banks, flew the olive, lead, vivian, you get some ideal habitat. it's when the material that's being re introduced gets mixed with the fine of pebbles and big rocks if like this one that protect against and stronger currently wash dock restroom. all would of good tribe portraits and now and then nature itself gives the restoration efforts an unexpected boost. he is a man mister beaver dam. we are obviously not the only ones trying to reshape the stream. will aquatic plants, insects, fish, crayfish. they will return to the stream which was restored several years ago. but according to marco done it there still no sign of any fresh water pole muscles. it's an endangered species and nearly extinct due to harvesting and pollution. the muscles play a key role in the ecosystem because they help purify the water. they filter out tiny organic particles from the water. they taken this benefits of a species big and small, but also inhabit the waters. a perfect food chain. germany streams were once home to thriving, fresh water poll muscle populations, unless it is here soon. you can see the difference in size between a muscle that's at least 50 years old. and a young one that's about 8 years old from a breeding project. in recent years, they've both made their home here in the area said i need young yet. so i was like a 4th non captive breeding programs. a currently the best way of boosting fresh water pal muscle populations. since most river habitats a to degraded conditions in the breeding stations are ideal, and the muscle can flourish. the thick is the 11th for the trick in the breeding program is to replicate the life cycle of the river pearl muscle, which is a bit complicated. it's got lockers, we keep mature muscles and wait for them to release their larvae into the water. the water in the crate, them flows into the container with the host fish as well. the brook trout lived there life on the river foot in berry. i'm at the ritz mission within buffalo. hundreds of brook trout live in the tanks, and they need the muscles to successfully complete their reproduction cycle. these, settling mcgill's for about 9 months before falling off. they're not yet ready to be released into the wild. they spent the next few years in boxes with water flowing through them in a stream next to the breeding station and a regularly monitored he hung vis. yeah. good and tickled these have developed. well, they're cindy. we'll be releasing them quite soon. the next on the most important is the shell. lang, sean langer. it should be about one and a half to 2 centimeters long, because then they've survived the critical juvenile stage, which i spend in the crevices in the gravel has been bubbling and can then cope well. with the conditions in the water, the thing when you get a social cons, hopefully, but before that can happen, more streams need to be restored and then muscle bads can play their part in repairing the ecosystem. staying under water and to an invisible problem that severely impacts my life in all of our oceans under water noise. ever since the industrial revolution, human activity in and around marine involvement has lombardo, the seas with salt. as we discovered, the effect of creatures, large and small is disorienting and destructive. 2 2 2 ah, the ocean is a symphony of sounds well, at least where they can still be heard. we humans have made the sea noisier than ever before. and the way things are going, the underwater world is set to become one thing. even louder with devastating effects on marine life. oh kidding tis creditor lloyd incense in their environment . so really finding that actually holding let's explore some smart ways of turning down the volume in the ocean and find out why this might also be good for the climate o. underwater sound waves traveled extremely fast and up to thousands of kilometers. sound is essential for almost all marine animals from whales to jellyfish. animals you sound to communicate, to navigate and define mating partners or pray. but hearing what those creatures need to hear is getting increasingly difficult. summary life is currently exposed to noise levels that can destroy their sense of hearing, literally render them deaf or kill them. it's like you're logging around in a fog. that's a pretty serious effect to for animals that depend on sound so much. so why are the oceans becoming so noisy? one factor is offshore wind farms, and when energy is generally a good thing. but installing offshore turbines creates a great deal of noise in the north sea. it damage the hearing of porpoises driving them away from their feeding and breeding grounds. you can perform entrance and most likely exceed pilots and they have to drive into the steep it by hammering or impact pile driving. and this course on the water noise, which is smallest comparable essence stopping aircraft. the sounds emitted by the pile structural elements smashing into the sea floor travel several kilometers from the source. but help is on the way compressed air flowing through tubes on the ocean floor round the piles creates bubbles that rise to the surface, forming a tight insulation curtain. fewer sound waves managed to penetrate the barrier leading to a 90 percent reduction in volume. this is how things sound without an air bubble curtain and this is with an air bubble curtain. challenging issues that if to, to lift with feel sure, conditions, wind waves, weather conditions, currents and so on. but thanks to tighter regulations, the curtains are now almost standard for construction off germany's north sea coast . and interest is also picking up in the us, the netherlands, and taiwan implementing bubble curtains cost just one percent or less of the total investment for an offshore wind farm. music loud, we're going in. so wind turbines are one thing, but there's a bigger problem. container ships international shipping is by far the main source of noise pollution in our oceans. the culprit and the potential solution is the ship's propeller. domestic pressure cooker is work by controlling the steam pressure inside them, pushing up the temperature at which water boils. the resulting higher heat means faster cooking. i ships propeller the opposite happens, not with food, but with water and effect called cavitation. so it, due to the fast motion of that propeller through the water. locally, the pressure is extremely low so that ambient temperature, the water boys and creates them bubbles, creates a vapor bubbles. and these bubbles grow. and these bubbles shrink and collapse. this generates noise levels comparable to a rock concert on dry land. the solution has the potential to be good news for the climate. and the profit margins of big shipping companies, essentially, fewer bubbles can mean lower fuel consumption. in 2017 denmark based mask retrofitted, the propellers and engines of 5 vessels, primarily to say fuel. but their sound emissions also dropped by 75 percent. this add on device improves a vessels flow in the water, which according to its maker means less cavitation and fuel savings of up to 8 percent. but installation isn't cheap. and shipping, firms are rarely obliged to make. the changes with cargo price is currently very high. they prefer to keep ships in operation, rather than investing in a retrofit for many ships. that could be savings possible, especially due to the fact that each ship needs to go to dr. dropping each say, each a 4 to 5 years to incentivize ship operators. the port of vancouver has cut port charges for certified quieter vessels by as much as half but the loudest defenders are seismic air guns. the fossil fuel industry uses them to locate new oil and gas fields in the ocean. their sound waves are as loud as a spacecraft and can be heard hundreds of kilometers from the source. for days, sometimes even weeks or months, these tubes fire out compressed air every 10 seconds. with every blast, 2 thirds of alls, all plankton larva within a kilometer of the explosion, dropped dead. they insure the health of the ecosystem. iran go credibly wasteful. they are way too loud for what they need to do. i rightly the fossil fuel industry is itself conducting research on more environmentally friendly methods for its surveys. one technique is called marine viber size, which generates the required signals via vibration instead of an explosion. the result is more of a constant hom, rather than a big sudden blast and air gun. so strong a buffet could rip your arm off, whereas a virus eyes on land, you can put an egg underneath and, and it won't break. initial models suggested the impact on marine life would be just 10 percent of that of an air gone. the likes of exxon mobil total energies and shell may have their eye on another advantage. however, marine viber size can also map oil and gas in shallow waters. but doesn't this sound paradoxical, more sustainable methods to find more fossil fuels? we really should not be, we just should not be searching for oil and gas under the ocean anymore. we, you know, we really need to make the screen transition. that's the main solution. there are plenty of options for reducing marine noise pollution, but more progress is needed on the regulatory front. in 2011 germany introduced one of the world's 1st noise limits in place to protect north sea marine life. air bubble curtains are now standard, there in the industry is doing fine. taiwan is introducing a similar regulation. quieter is better for the environment, but without incentives or new laws, the industry has few reason to change. the role of who's in conservation is controversial, but some argue they play a valuable role in educating the public about animals and help foster values about the need to protect species. we met a new application officer in chennai was committed to doing just that. i me see that the green iguana sealer 30 threshing splash of cool water. a new born gavia was its mother and broke her heart global so that she can now madame crocodile bank sees the beat, allows web users to get up close and personal with all these animals that are in the southern indian state of not being them on line will encourage visitors to drop by in person and learn more or less when people come to the create, you gave them about the animals, how these animals live and eat, and what we give this information to the people of those who was founded in 1976 a time when crocodiles had almost gone extent in india, due to the trade in crocket, i led to the government place burton's disease under protection. and my dad's crocodile bank was designed to help provide numbers with a breeding program at the beginning, the house, exclusively crocodiles nowadays its own too many other reptiles to like turtles equinox and snape, it snakes that people are particularly scared off. they are deemed to be dangerous fees on what clothes, leave it all the animal got them unless you don't mind, it's not like they do not bite. if they bite, we have to endure it. animals cannot talk and biting of how they express themselves . i think that was really a big role in steph. he's on educational. well, she wants people to understand them. no, no more in india, every year. 50260000 people die because of sneak bite. hans, it is very important to spread awareness about snakes. but they said, stephanie jones received a b, a in lodging in time. and afterwards she did a masters in biology and conservation. in portland, she was recently elected to represent keisha in the international educators association, a role which puts her in dialogue with those ward. why? who actors who educate that my mean ambition and goal is to create a change in people's perspectives about animals. this exist because of that. so that people will get curious about animals and get to learn more about them, that they will also learn about how to build a better future, where people and animals can co exist harmoniously. they can also learn about the importance of animals. humans and animals are dependent on each other, setting the goal of as always, to make people understand how we can both going with that on the band. make blog down for then those who entered employs with many children do with visitors, forced to stay home. the lag income, but that obstacle helped it in a way. now companies and individuals can adopt animals and help finance, they keep those social media, but then helps it to find the table sponsors and ensure the protection of india injured you into the future. our planet tribes on balance, as we've seen, to leave the alt belongs to every living organism, not just human beings. the movie embodied this, the movie ensure the security of photo and species. think about that and i'll see you again next week from all of us in india and germany. good bye. and thanks for watching with with in good shape. tripping through the world of drugs. millions are addicted to the rush. with trends on the drug seen becoming more and more extreme. what should we look out for in soft drugs?

w w openen on thee last day of the year. late this afternoon, the state department official wildlife sent out word that commercial crab season will begin on december 31st. new year's eve. crab season was originally supposed to begin mid-november but was paused to allow scientists to monitor humpback whales along the coast. the crab nets can be a hazard fofor whales.s. fish a and wildlife says crabbe will only be allowed to place half as many traps. >>> if you are on the coast this week, keep an eye out in the water. you might see what's called a king tide. that's when high tides are unusually intense. happens a few times a year. at the moment, we're coming out of low tide. you can check out those king tides in the mid to late mornings until the 24th. >>> let's take you outside, a live look in palo alto. like the rest of the bay area, it's currently under a spare-the-air alert, issued this alert through christmas day for the entire bay area. that means a ban on burning any wood, manufactured fire logs or any other solid fuel sources. so there's your warning. jeff ranieri joins us with the all-important forecast for all the travelers, family and friends coming in today, tomorrow, have some family members coming into sjc, a two-hour delay right now. >> isabela arrives in exactly 45 minutes. she was able to get on her flight from new york. >> that's fantastic. the next two days, going to be the big travel issue, especially if you're going to the midwest or the eastern half of the country. and then back here in the bay area, getting in the car, no issues. friday, saturday, and sunday from any kind of rainfall. we're looking at a dry forecast here, but you may need to watch out for patchy areas of fog. the big headlines continue to be next week. that's when across the west coast we're going to be looking at major delays that will be possible with a stronger storm that's going to be setting up with an atmospheric river. i'm going to have more details on that coming up in about two minutes but let's take it into the current satellite radar picture. there's a few spotty showers out here, nothing big, but that's going to be moving through the north bay, peninsula, and also the south bay here as we roll through tonight. you can see some of those scattered showers here at 7:00. but notice how a lot of this just clears out as we head through 11:00. so, nothing big tonight. as we roll into tomorrow morning, we're stuck with some of that fog. you want to watch out for the commute and some regular clouds mixing in. then, by the afternoon, here it is. we should manage some sunshine here over the east bay peninsula and the south bay, but you might just stay clouded in there over the north bay through tomorrow. now, temperatures as we roll into tomorrow morning's forecast starting off here in the low 40s. we have been used to this, at least, the past couple days, so a chilly start here with that jacket out. 43 in the south bay. trivalley at 42 coming in over san francisco with 45 and the east bay at the low 40s as well. daytime highs, we move through tomorrow, pretty much the same, no matter where you're headed across the bay area, lots of upper 50s and low 60s. 59 in concord, 57 in santa rosa, down towards morgan hill, 61. and now, we're going to see weather similar to this as we roll into saturday and also sunday's forecast for christmas. beyond that, i keep talking about those rain chances for next week, so i wanted to go ahead and put a focus on what we're looking at, and i do think at this point we're going to get hit hard by this storm system as we roll into next week. what you're looking at here is the center of the storm out here in the pacific by monday night. then, an atmospheric river joining in with that, so i think we're going to see this move in with that heavier rainfall by next tuesday, also that sierra snow. look at these totals. brand-new tonight, two-plus inches north bay, that's just in 24 hours. also two-plus inches for the santa cruz mountains, and the rest of the bay area, good for at least one inch. sierra snow stacking up in feet. we're talking at kingville here, 46 inches. kirkwood, 45. on the seven-day forecast, dry through christmas weekend. then those rain chances we just mentioned, looks like on and off chances for monday through thursday of next week. so, plains landing here next few days are fine but next week, taking off to leave, that's going to be another problem. >> that's a whole different bag of chips. >> thank you, jeff. >>> up next, you reach for them when you're sick, but do they really work? what local doctors are saying out some certain ab (steven) every timeme i come toto see careremore, theyey go abovee and d beyond to o take care e . i feel a l lot better r now. i'm takiking medicatation for t i shshould have e been takining years agago.

take down? no, actually no, i say that is for services. okay. if you with we've made several requests for an official meeting. now things were getting uncomfortable with the i'm a good lake called security guard. they're following up with you. they're about to throw us out. they're looking for a new sheffield with we love us. yeah, i'm, this is jesse with lucy lays in the us in death threats just because we wanted to film a field of genetically modified corn. why such hostility on social media? the tone is quite different. take this official video of howard buffett talking about funding this g m o cornfield in uganda. the morning when i remember when i sat down last here and i was trying to explain how this project can work. it, the only way you can say is we're going to bring you rain and they look at you like, why are you going to do that? i see it, but buffets miracles can only happen at farmers adopt new technologies and abandoned traditional farming. a rich white benefactor telling africans what to do reminiscent of the colonial era. so the next few years, we hope that you can learn how to improve some of your planting. ah, why are we not allowed to film here? because in the world of genetically modified organisms, or g m o's control is paramount every word and every image is carefully cultivated . for this social networks offer an ideal platform. imagine what it's like the live in extreme poverty. you have to think about the basics, like your next meal, all the time on instagram. this kind of corn is portrayed as a blessing for africa because it fights hunger. it's not called genetically modified, but rather resistant or drought tolerant. in less than 10 years, social media has become a vital tool online. even billionaires present themselves as human, authentic and transparent, transparent. really, we took a hard look at the world of these rich philanthropists who dream of genetically modified africa. what we found in places their dream is already a reality. if you have enough money, you get to determine what the right path is for set of countries as diverse as there are in africa. our foundation is proud to be a part of that. i with our $700000000.00 commitment formula. honda, vito, the push philanthropic and humanitarian goals. i mean it's in reality all they're promoting some the else and time in. well, the i in finance london unit a ship there funding high risk research is a leap into the unknown little incl new. this is actually hungry cultural geo politics. in our research, we came across the wide spread idea that if you have a large personal fortune, you can save the world a phenomenon that people were calling philanthropy capitalism. and it was an idea that you can essentially marry some of the ideas of corporate growth and corporate profit making with the goal of philanthropy. and this is problematic in reality, saving the world in the age of philanthropy. capitalism is a profitable business to understand how these cheerleaders of g m, o technologies work, we turn to one of their favorite media platforms. instagram, we create an account and follow their pages in. on instagram, there are g, m, o advocates. and there are opponents. some are violent we also find african instagram or darlin kasim. with her 24000 followers. she's using the platform to further her cause. i'm darlene castillo, you go, i started an environmental organization. the young activist from the ivory coast is an eco feminist. fighting for environmental protection and women's rights. ah, yeah, actually. so those nature and women a massively exploited by our society at the same time, they're deeply undervalued. ah, we asked the act of as to help us with our research, both on the ground and on instagram, to find out what's happening on her continent. dawn she said more clearly 3 percent of african field, sacha know areas just under $4000000.00 hector compared to $60.00 to $70000000.00 heck t as in not in america as a result. this huge potential there and you frontier on google foot. mm. it all began in 1997 when south africa became the 1st african country to pass legislation allowing g m o. 2 decades later, the countries, soy maze, and cotton crops are almost 100 percent genetically modified. since then, the market has been expanding just like a technological advance, such as running water or internet access. g m o's, or conquering the continent, tanzania, kenya, uganda, sudan, egypt, nigeria, burkina, faso and the ivory coast. ah, abidjan, the economic capital of ivory coast here genetic engineering is on the rise, though few people know about it. mm. ah, the activist dabbling casem as our guide with it. marcus, like these, there's no point in asking the sellers with their products to genetically modified these g m. i mean anything to you, ma'am? no, i don't think so. then what is o g, emma? g m a n g m o? i don't know. i see people he don't know about g m. i was like genetically modified fruits and vegetables. activists, on the other hand, are all too aware of the threat posed to traditional african agriculture. driving through to such an ugly future or is it all you gotta keep but his ugly, concrete culture is not very complex. the phone was mainly work with simple food danielle, the most encounter with agriculture, the feeds, people prefer to main agriculture. yeah. he's actually whenever you know, that of course is now under threat. ah, 11 even less forgotten about he can. so west africa is still not very developed as an economic heresy. therefore they see the chance to occupy this model could be mm mm. g m o's were banned in ivory coast until 2016, when a group of multi nationals approached the government with a deal. they promised to invest a large sum of money in agriculture, particularly rise production the goal they said to fight hunger. in return, they wanted the state to allow the research and marketing of genetically modified plants that the supreme thank god we can turn upon for like, god you. what we found was, were completely surprised when we heard that ivory coast was opening up to genetic engineering. for, since the contents of this law was mostly kept quiet, we did not know what tools allowed, but apparently, the longest the multinationals, free rank synergy. now shanella, i is there, thin lieber, my lord of activity if the minute of compounds and work has been ruled, it has actually agriculture. geo politics. ah, the donors presented a strong argument thanks to them. drought and malnutrition would become a thing of the past, hulu. among the super rich who promot genetically modified agriculture, one man stands out. bill gates, the co founder of microsoft could be seen as the christopher columbus of genetic engineering, his charity, the bill and melinda gates foundation is one of the richest in the world with around $50000000000.00 and assets. ah, bill gates has more than 7000000 followers on instagram. he posts videos and photos for his fans, often alongside rich and famous friends. for some 20 years, and especially since the pandemic, he has been seemingly on the present when it comes to things like vaccination, health, and agriculture. he's also promoting his own solutions. and he's convinced that the cure for hunger in africa is genetically modified food. mm. europeans have decided they don't want that most of them, which is fine. they're not facing malnutrition and starvation. if they wanna pay a premium for food, a good kind. if it's not a huge deal, the africans, i think we'll choose, ah, to let their people have that have enough the we have to decide what's important in the world. i will look at energy, climate change, and disease around occasion. one crucial term does not appear in bill gates, official literature, philanthropy, capitalism. and it was an idea that you can essentially marry some of the ideas of corporate growth and corporate profit making with the goals of philanthropy. and this is problematic because is leading people to think that tact billionaires will somehow save us when actually they won't, they art and some of their practices actually compound the very problems of environmental degradation. bill gates has taken on an urgent problem to eradicate the diseases that affect the african cassava, which he calls the most interesting vegetable in the world. but how, like always, with a technological miracle. ah, no 6 and this is the plat clinic in the city level. i quite a bit of oratory is strictly called it when no one knows what goes on that behind closed doors with you soon you come, do you have any guidelines that would a forbid any g m programs will be funded? give me one second. i'm surprised that he would be involved in the project object for $15000000.00. gates has had the most interesting vegetable in the world, analyzed down to its smallest molecule in a laboratory near abbey. john aye. this research center caught her eye because of the vague description of its work. with other good morning everyone. phyllis, i shall never. what are you extract in cassandra leif dna? what kind of sample is that? it is the, this is the laboratory of wave west african virus epidemiology. amelia de la blackwood opened in 2015 with funding on the bill. and melinda gates foundation . i did find mm. the program called wave also, of course, has an instagram presence bmw with pictures of the generous donor and his scientists who are working in 10 african countries to find a cure to protect the cassava from pests drought. and viruses. exhibit oliver also this is to plant clinic, opted instill. we can produce an identical plant, but without the disease trigger from a cell was in there. psalm pollution, what miracle cure is bill gates researching. here to save the cassava. are you preparing to introduce g m. o. cassava in west africa. miller vol, knocking about those gmc, no, there are no g m o. 's. here. however, i am in favor of transgenic plants of all the conditions are met and there is a need for them to and why we're not there yet. but we must be prepared, we must be prepared for everybody. we're the name of one of the labs here. says it all. conference. awesome, awesome. got this is the genetic enhancement room i was telling you about. it will be operational in 6 months of out. assume if suassa does that mean, you'll start genetic enhancements in 6 months. good of yours? no, no, it's not like that. we're just learning the techniques. it, there's a difference. we familiarize yourself with the latest technical procedures yet, like crisper and so on. okay, chris, for to be as prepared as possible students. won't grandma? but i'm sure the topic seems to make the professor uncomfortable. crisper is a new method of gene manipulation called genome editing will oh yes. yes, it's taken. it's today, there are 2 types of gene. i'm editing this new type of genetic engineering. the 1st is genetics, this is krista lab. it cuts out the unwanted part of the gina. but unlike hair, this pot does not grow back. it's gone forever edition. it did them now please. and no one knows what last and consequences this could have for the plant that is in the 2nd technique is gene silencing with this there is no cutting loss, is about to get rid of the problematic part, whether you use something artificial to conceal at the core now, and it not only conceals gene silencing causes permanent changes in the genetic material of the plant by means of muted genesis. as an implant in classical genetic engineering, we speak of trans genesis. here a gene foreign to the species is transplanted into the genome of a host organism, like a plant or an animal, though. so that develops characteristics that it did not originally have. yep. mm menda, rectify sumpter? no, i didn't read that, knew it was in lay with it. yes. all she for i didn't, the new methods modify the genetic material of the plant without transplanting genes. this was him. this group, therefore proponent say that they are not genetically modified organisms since no gene transfer takes place and we did not get that remembrance you. but for us, it is the same principle. the court of justice of the european union sees it the same way. and as per organisms created by controlled me to genesis on an equal footing with genetically modified organisms negotiate according to this decision of the court of justice of the european union, the you should theoretically reject the wave program. but as we discovered, professor pita and his team did, in fact receive funding from the e u. a ya mall and just slim. we visited the research center, professor pita showed us a room and i think he said something about he you find what's new boldoff. no small renewal of build up. oh, look at the tables and all the equipment have already been ordered. we have a co operation with the e, you know, through which we financed the equipment of the laboratories leblanc life. oh ok. let's search their projects. so closure wave funding and co financing 5000000 from the e u as a 5 year, i say 5000000. the e u is supporting a laboratory that wants to carry out research that the e u court of justice has ruled is dangerous. for weeks we've been trying to get an interview with you to or the line and the you commission are responsible for this funding in vain. now, do you have any news or her you dial feeling anything? maybe if maybe hers but to her. so that again, interview her, i gather ok. i need to go back to, you know, later what we discovered is that in ivory ghosts when we went to film, they are planning to use new technique like like crisper, like, like, gin, editing, like like all the stuff and, and they are on the records, the actually said that there were developing those techniques of things to the european union supports. so that's why we were, we were calling actually. okay. okay. oh, to be honest with you right now, i will not want to say anything just because like i said, we're going to try and find out a bit. and then we will get a reply from our site. yeah. but do you have any guidelines that would a forbid in the gym programs to be funded? we are going to need to check this. i am not sure that the guidelines are not to be every single thing. i do not really. i really, i cannot. i've just heard this now i'm yes, you know, course with even n g o that scrutinize every cent of e u funding. we're not aware that the wave project is apparently also working on the genetic modification of the cassava. can be done, sir. samples you are getting, i am surprised that the e would be involved in the project and we know that it does not want to support the development of g. m. as in africa since 2014. we've happen law for development and international solidarity in which friends commit to not financing the research production and marketing of channels in africa. so this is very irritating, pleasant, but finally, the commission reply by email that there was no laboratory in ivory coast working on transgenic plants or animals. and that the equipment purchased with e. u funds was unsuitable for modern genetic engineering techniques. so while europe is hiding behind its modest contribution of $5000000.00 euros, it is studiously overlooking the $15000000.00 that bill gates has provided for the research program. enough to advance genetic engineering and africa. the gates foundations decisions are simply imposed on africans. and there is insufficient power to challenge the key to the gate system is its financial structure. how is the $50000000000.00 and endowment capital deployed? that money is then invested in, in the stock market, in essence, in many different companies. and it's done so through essentially what the gates, what the gates as see is something like a blind trust the money the gates foundation spends in africa, for example, comes from dividends. it receives, as a shareholder and numerous companies. yes. and that's how most foundation endowments work. there dividends that come back into the it's not just dividend, how their portfolio is invested. you immediately, your capital is lend to those companies in essence, in order to own shares. so these endowments own portions of different company in the gates foundations list of fixed asset investments. and thus, profits one finds major corporations such as amazon, apple, coca cola, or b a, s f, the german chemical giant, and a leader and the sale of genetically modified seeds. the gates foundation holds b a as f shares worth over $7000000.00. a portion of amazon's profits also flows into the coffers of the gates foundation. the same applies to coca cola profits some of the money, the b s. f earns from the sale of genetic seeds also ends up at the foundation. please join me in welcoming bill gates to the stage in linda, a government today is having a very hard time saying no to bill gates has plans in just to have a better liability be stronger. i maybe have a quicker development time, not all falsely the sunny increases all doubts and in africa. the former microsoft boss has found another area in which he can promote genetic engineering. because bill gates doesn't like viruses or mosquitoes and a disease that kills a child every other minute of every day. and that's why he has set his sights on eradicating malaria. as always, with the help of enormous sums of money and scientific research in the fight against the disease. gates and his foundation enjoy the power of a state, as we see here in the own, in october 2019 with heads of state from all over the world have come to announce their financial pledges in the fight against malaria. and the star of this fundraiser has a front row seat and there's an old joke, an english that where does an $800.00 pound gorilla sip? and the answer is anywhere launched and, and bill as they entered town carrillo, who the g 20. it's going to invite into its meetings and give it a seat at the table. like he's a country. ah, you know, it's a really dangerous side of philanthropy, capitalism, right? that if you have enough money, you get to determine what the right path is for. ah, a concept of countries as diverse as there are in africa. juvenile, misty. i really want to thank bill gates in his foundation because he is also at this meeting, mal ito, who's been historically live and he's here with us now. hm . in. ah, my daughters will be invited to announce their commitment to the global fund for the next 3 years. the european union will contribute 550000000 euros. look, $1400000000.00 pound pledge, $840000000.93 canadian dollar. i'm your total out. i mean, he can see me on the do not america $6000000.00 you as the last $1500000.00 us dollars. $12000000.00 us dollars. emily, all the dollars on every day and we don't do do not. i meet again. we're only a few steps away from bill gates and we have a 1000 questions. but in bill gates world, everything is planned out and we are not on his agenda. please join me in welcoming bill gates to the stage. who other than bill gates could overturn the use commitment? our foundation is a proud to be a part of that i with our $700000000.00 commitment, who else could get a standing ovation from african leaders? now we were working on a new generation of nance. ah, and we have now to day, the interceptor g to right here and these are new are but even in the next year i'll be going out by the 1000000. the mosquito nets gates is so proud of are produced by b s f. one of the companies in which his foundation has a stake. our foundation is been working with b. s. up in med, accessing the gates foundation, has the funds to send mosquito nets to fight malaria. and even the most remote villages in africa like this one in ivory coast booklet is here. the tv used, the treated mosquito net has prescribed to protect against mosquito bites and malaria. lou. ah, if it is, you could have him. yeah, because my mom's relate to that, hama, i know about malaria. really. i myself have an attack every 3 months that my dad's here in this isolated village all measures against the disease had paid for with donations from the founder of microsoft made. it must also be said that bill gates has quietly funding some very strange projects to 5 mosquitoes in the gates foundation is putting a whopping $155000000.00 into one of these strange projects. the goal to modify mosquitoes so that they don't transmit malaria. with the help of genetic engineering, of course, the project name, target malaria. oh, don't get any else glue bell to show that they can only cut, does a non profit global research, netflix target malaria aims to help save millions of lives. we're breaking ground in the fight against this disease. i'll research as i said, jean and the exit mosquitoes, making them sterile africa lu, marchina, faso, a country plagued by g hottest terrorist groups. nonetheless, we drive to bobo july, so the 2nd largest city in the country. here on july 1st 2019, the government granted target malaria permission to release the genetically altered mosquitoes. a 1st it seems on the african continent. unfortunately, without picture or sound target malaria did not film the operation. government decree or not, we're going to talk to the mayor rule, but yeah, also not a lot of literature to look at in level on we were approached by target malaria. as we understand it was a female mosquitoes ought to be made in fertile because only they transmit malaria with selma count on you, cause i'm not a scientist to kind of know whether these genetically modified mosquitoes can cause other problems. chem, escorting, so we'll see. cloud solution is the monday one for clear build problem. did you know that there was a similar project in brazil? no, no, i don't know anything about it. the mayor doesn't know about the brazilian field trial, but we do in september 2019 the prestigious science journal nature published a report by independent researcher jeffrey powell. that doesn't, he was worried by his findings and he doesn't have a project going on brazil in brazil with people in rio de janeiro. and i heard about this program going on in jack abena where they're doing is releases of oxy tech. so i think ok, if they're not doing it, maybe we should check to see if it's happening, haven't you, that you and your team, you physically come towards a genetically modified most of those to see what happened with them. right? right. we wanted to check, do any the genes that were in the release strain now incorporated into the natural population or the target population, a la gene modification experiment failed twice. first, the mosquitoes could not be eradicated. second, the genetically modified mosquitoes reproduced with the endemic population and passed on their modified genes. jeffrey powell fears that all mosquitoes in the area may now be more robust. so my question is that they could have been more robust, your west instead just to have it better by ability, be stronger, maybe have a quicker development time. these are all savings but, but you can find when you make hybrid, sometimes they can develop faster. they become larger, they live longer, they're more fertile. that's what i'm thinking. ah, although there's no financial link to the brazilian experiment, target. malaria is based on the same scientific principle. well, the mosquitoes and burkina faso mutate as well. officials there had not considered this possibility until we showed the district mayor jeffrey powell study her up and, and i'll call the people that talk it. mm. when she submitted. yes. oh, good afternoon. oh, no. cecilia on the line target. malaria has had of p r. s good info. is that true? i've heard about brazil. there were releases in brazil, but how that turned out? i can't tell you. we should meet with. well okay, but my head, he says he doesn't know how it turns out. if i find that worry because it's the same project and he as an expert, has no idea or increases all doubts even more. i mean, if i am for a liberal, was some said monitoring. this would have been the least we could have done. he said solomon no, but i do not want people to be used as guinea pigs when they're sure i will not accept it. you could just probably kill up a plush under banners. why they're cool by if it is indeed the same project of the asset to i find that scandalous, c, effective muscle. remember, with our camera rolls as those in charge of the program, enter the mayor's office. we will miss you. little to hello, i'm a journalist. i worked for our table, you were here to talk about target malaria. i woulda, this is not something i'm not authorized to talk to the press this a few months later, target malaria informs us that the transfer of the genetically modified genetic material to wild mosquitoes is possible, but does not pose any risks. activists criticize a culture of secrecy methods, much like those of the gates foundation, which is funding the project is decision with stitches of keys, it will do other global universal. we're here at the joseph keys there for university in a while. good to go. and this is the institute of population science which renewed it thanks. are given to the bill and melinda gates foundation, philip, which supported the development of the institute, a population science don't. there it is. victor. this foundation is pouring billions into all sorts of things in burkina faso. i believe that my country has been distressed by all this money, jewelry, the berkener, but government is finding it very difficult to say no to bill gates has plans will be to get to see a corporate perspective from a political economy perspective. the gates foundation is once again trying to help western producers and people find that problematic when you claim that your goal is improving global equity. this is why a lot of people have concerns with g m. o r in regents like africa. well, bill gates, who likes to ignore uncomfortable questions, answered the questions of an african activist lou. dear mr. kate, my name is darlene cason. i am a young hearing late i to hong i hurry course i fax. your foundation should nuts and try our continents as perceive me. this is selena with wow, ah hello delynn. thank you for your inquiry. the bill and melinda gates foundation invests and innovative tools that have the potential to improve the lives of those and greatest needs. and we work to support safe, ethical, and transparent research that includes gene editing and other potentially transformative techniques. thanks again. media relations team, bill and melinda gates foundation. and these transformative techniques are protected by the financial power of the gates foundation. even the united nations seems powerless. blue bill gates more powerful than the un. that's what hundreds of internal emails from the foundation and the target malaria program leaked by an american whistleblower suggest. there we discovered that the gates foundation paid $1600000.00 to a lobbying agency. their goal to convince a group of un scientists to endorse gene drive or the genetic engineering of mosquitoes. apparently, the lobbying agency was successful in this email. the leaders of the program, right that the u. n. did not advocate a ban on these procedures. black a, do you in meeting ended on the 17th of december and the decision takes time jane drive does not include a moratorium of ban. this is a positive result for us is foreign. no one, not even the supervisory authorities of the u. n. can put the brakes to the american mo he billionaire's desire to experiment. ah, no one has the power to say what if you're wrong, mister gates? what if the mosquitoes mutate? what if the genetically modified cassava no longer tolerates wind or sun? what will become of the african continent? these are important questions. we put them to the un. what are you in charge of talking to me? yes. yes, good. what i actually learned is that the bid amended the gets from dish and actually funded. these are lobbying firm to recruit some bundle members. i was just wondering if decision was influenced all not by the scale of a recruitment of, of scientists. i mean, i mean, i think on the research, i can't comment on that or girl i don't among those foundation. okay, malay, i can't comment on that. great. i just can't help my company. yes, of course, i am months after our interview request, bill gates continues to post on instagram. however, he has yet to answer any of our questions with a pulse with the beginning of a story that moves us and takes us along for the ride. it's all about the perspective. hey, culture. information. this is b w. w. made from mines. oh, a lot. is he she, when i arrived here, i slept with 6 people in a room, 9th and it was hard. i wish fear. i even got white hair in learning the language head. yeah. a lot. this kids to me and craig opportunity to interact with say, you want to know their story, migrant verifying and reliable information for migrant. ah ah ah ah, this is dw line from berlin a national holiday in argentina to celebrate the world cup when a bus carrying lionel messy and his teammate is slowly making its way through the capital. when osiris hundreds of thousands of fans have passed the city center hoping to catch a glimpse of their hero, also coming up germany called it long overdue foreign minister. adelina babbled. heads back beneath bronze. as to nigeria, europeans looted the art works more than a century.

time of the year, so we dedicate this to her every year. >> reporter: it takes three months to put this spectacular light show on, and it takes another three months to put the lights away. and the

on tomorrow morning's commute, but tuesday morning, if you've got places to go, you might want to rethink those plans. that shows you a preview of tomorrow morning which involves patchy fog. novato, similar story in livermore. those locations tomorrow morning you may see reduced visibility at times. slow down on your morning commute. hazy conditions elsewhere. air quality issues. then increasing clouds throughout the day. temperatures still hanging onto the 60s. upper 50s from san francisco to oakland. pretty good-looking weather system. this particular storm looks fairly robust as it comes through tomorrow night into tuesday. what that will do, that extra moisture getting into the storm as it helps to power up more impressive rainfall rates per hour. you bring that into the storm, suddenly the rainfall map looks like this. two to four inches of rain and localized areas could go higher than that. and wind speeds picking up. look at these gusts into tuesday morning. another factor for the tuesday morning commute. these gusty winds in purple. wind speeds coming down. rain, too. should be less a factor. this time tomorrow night the rain starts to return to the bay area. peak wind and rain will be after midnight until about 6:00 a.m., 7:00 a.m. 6:00 a.m. on tuesday. then more substantial rain starts to move out. a few scattered showers, and things start to wind down

told me her saga of being entangled in the russian legal system, the harsh conditions at the penal colony where she says she was assaulted by a male inmate and how she feels she's been abandoned. after nearly a year in a russian prison sarah krivanek is back in the u.s. and speaking out in her first network tv interview. >> come back. >> reporter: the english teacher had been living in russia since 2017. last november she was arrested for assaulting her roommate with a knife. she says he was abusing her and she acted in self-defense. >> he comes busting through the door, busts the door down, breaks the tv, picks me up by my hair and starts thumping on me. i'm completely covered in bruises like a raccoon across my eyes. >> reporter: the next month after visiting the u.s. embassy a diplomatic official arranged for the 46-year-old to fly back to the u.s. but she was taken into custody at the moscow airport prior to boarding. krivanek says she thought she was free to go. at her trial in february, just weeks before the russian invasion of ukraine, krivanek was sentenced to 15 months in a penal colony. >> i just started bawling, sobbing. i can't even speak. i can't speak in english. i can't speak in russian. gibberish. >> do you believe that your status as an american and the war in ukraine had any bearing on your fate? >> absolutely had 100% bearing. if this situation would have happened at an earlier time or a different time in history, i wouldn't have been sentenced at all and shortly after i was sentenced on the 11th of february was detained another american in the airport on the 17th. >> brittney griner. >> which was miss griner. so i believe a person could easily say, of course, they used the two situations as an advantage for their political agenda. >> reporter: there's a stark contrast between the attention paid to wnba star brittney griner's case and krivanek's. unlike griner, the state department never classified krivanek as wrongly detained. >> it feels that my patriotism or my citizenship to my own country meant absolutely nothing. they might as well as just left me there. they completely throw out the fact that another human being, another american citizen is also going through, you know, sufferings with no support. >> you said you were angry. who are you angry at? >> i'm angry at our u.s. government. >> why? >> for leaving me behind to rot. they said we were working on your case diligently. someone will see you in the colony. nobody ever came. >> reporter: she served her time in a remote penal colony housing male and female ininmates. she says she had no way to communicate with the outside world. she was desperate for anyone outside the prison to know where she was. >> i thought i could complain about the prison administration and the conditions of how i'm living to the right person. no, you cannot do that. and my punishment was soft compared to what they can do to you. so i took my punishment like a lamb to the slaughter. >> you weren't being physically punished. >> no, not by the guard. >> by who? >> i have no supplies, no food, no vitamins, no medicine, no phone calls. i make one complaint and i'm assaulted by a male inmate that was guarded by other female inmates and other inmates standing post. then the psychological damage that comes from that is it's my fault so i'm humiliated. all my privileges are taken away. i can't even go to the cafeteria. i can't go into the kitchen or use cutlery or dishes. i had to find my own spoon, cup and bowl. >> after this punishment -- >> i never complained again. >> how far away did freedom feel? >> 2 1/2 months, forever. forever. eternity. >> reporter: across the world in california and unbeknownst to sarah her longtime friend anita had been working tirelessly to get answers. >> i wrote letters to the white house, embassy. i said sarah has absolutely nothing to bargain with. she's in there alone with absolutely nothing. all i'm asking is to just help me help my friend. that's it. >> what made you want to help sarah so much? >> she has a good heart. i know sarah. i just know her. >> it must be almost overwhelming to feel so loved and cared for like that. >> i have no words to express my appreciation except that i give up prayers for her and when i learned that anita was fighting for me, any time that i could find a candle i would light a candle for her and put my prayers up for her. >> reporter: in november she was back in court and formerly deported by the russian government. at the same time the u.s. government was negotiating a prisoner swap, russian arms dealer viktor bout in exchange for griner's release from a nine-year sentence for drug charges. on december 8th, both women left russia. >> i'm really glad that she got out. i wrote her a letter from the deportation detention facility i was in, said, you know, don't worry, nobody is going to leave you behind. everybody is supporting you. prison life is going to be very cruel. you're going to need to learn your opponent so you can survive. so i was genuinely as a human being worried, what is she going to do for nine years? i felt sorry for her. she made a lot of mistakes. she got swapped and literally genuinely had joy she didn't have to endure that. >> reporter: now krivanek is focusing on her recovery. still grappling with feeling forgotten by the u.s. government, which she says has not reached out to her since her return. >> what message do you have to the biden administration and the american government? >> that all american citizens should get the same level of service no matter what the situation is. don't forget about me and don't forget about the others. >> in a statement the state department says it has no greater priority than the safety and security of u.s. citizens overseas and adds the u.s. embassy in moscow provided assistance on her case for more than a year, including ensuring her safe return home. as for brittney griner who returned on the same day as krivanek she has a new message this morning and we'll have much more on that coming up at 8:00. >> such a compelling interview, will. >> she said she feels like the forgotten american. >> fascinating. thank you for that. >>> we have much more coming up. stunning eyewitness testimony in the megan thee stallion shooting trial with closing arguments

gotten so much attention on social media, in the hip-hop community, as well creating a storm around this trial for the last three years. the lawyer for megan thee stallion's former friend rapper tory lanez isn't denying she was shot but saying their client isn't the one responsible. this morning closing arguments continue in the blockbuster trial involving rap star megan thee stallion against fellow rapper tory lanez who prosecutors say shot at her feet after a party in the summer of 2020. >> there's no doubt that a crime occurred. there's a 911 call that has gunshots going off. there's bullets recovered from her foot. it's a neither what happened or whodunit. >> reporter: in court the judge asked in lanez wanted to testify. he said no. earlier in the week a witness called by the defense sean kelly testified that he saw megan and her then-assistant kelsey harris fighting each other outside of a vehicle adding that a man fitting the description of lanez's driver left the vehicle to try to separate the two women. kelly says he saw flashes coming from the women but that he also saw a muzzle flash about the same time lanez got out of the car. he also claimed megan was curled up in the fetal position as the three beat her. >> any time there's confusion about the facts and what happened in a criminal case, that bodes well typically for the defendant. >> reporter: last week she provided emotional testimony against lanez describing how she got into a heated argument with her fellow rapper and former friend saying he was holding the gun pointed at me and claiming lanez ordered her to dance before firing injuring her feet. however, lanez's attorney disputing his client fired the weapon. the rapper's former assistant and friend harris took the stand last week. prosecutors showed a text message that read, help, tory shot meg. 911. but harris says she did not know why she wrote that since she did not see anything happen. meanwhile, the recipient of that text,
