The cameras around an International Following which is why young people come from all over the world to learn how to make wine here. Today 12 helpers from 7 Different Countries are here to harvest grapes according to the bouncers stringent criteria. They inspect the grapes one by one everything is done by hand. Clowes pater keller is pleased that the years hard work has paid off once again hes been able to harvest his crop early he lets me out with mushrooms in the last few years i have to say that the autumn weather is now and theyre like late summer weather in that endeavor a good nights are cruel and that helps the recycling rates right and perpetration really think that all but theyre not perfect so that wasnt always the case. But the video card is located on a state slope the racing vines here are more than 100 years old and even survived the great phil ochs are a play in the 19th century the colors harvest gold red grapes by hand bruised grapes are sorted out right almost bought by market its physically strenuous work as the kind here is more than 60 degrees at noon call it quits otherwise itll be too hot for the grapes which need to arrive at the winery in good shape. If the grapes get too warm they start to ferment too soon and the vintner wants to control that process. Or the bad. Suzanna to man has a biologist who conducts research at the renowned hot guys and Im University which specializes in vittie culture and halter culture since 2014 teams here have been investigating the effects of rising levels of c o 2 on wine growing. At the university is free and Carbon Dioxide enrichment facilities known as face great finds are constantly sprayed with c o 2 researchers here aim to see how the plants change there by simulating what the finance of tomorrow will look like. At the height of summer suzanna to man visits the facility almost every day she checks on the rightness of the. Rapes and measures changes to the vines and the soil. So secret also is on in the most likely usa landing pad but it really is the vineyard of the future here given ripleys the concentration of c o 230 by a 2030 well they found out in the 1st year or so from now is that we also have a high transpiration say that means the grave i mean i can see you in the big water. Of course and yes like 2018 or even now in this park a hot summer thats not so beneficial for the thought of this for they were. Too many hot dry sunny days cause grapes reselling in particular to shrivel on the vine the grapes actually get sunburned leading to huge crop losses. So senator examines the healthy grapes in the lap she also turns their quality and stage of maturity and predicts when theyll be ready to harvest. Findings indicate while the grapes of the future should be like. We have 81 degrees x. The suspense continues. It isnt we harvest according to the degree of health of the cabin they could do with a bit more excellent washouts he would have this Climate Research or cloudier comma is a professor at geisenheimers University Work focuses on the direct effects of Climate Change on plants. She relies on the lab results of her colleagues. For the 1st time theyve discovered anomalous mainly in the amount of yeast a similar bill nitrogen in the great must as i am its here to 5 here are 2 different points in time you can see there are significant differences then they quite extreme the highest values around 80 the lowest is under 40 says thats extremely low isnt it. S m i feel like here we might actually have a difference that weve long suspected. Thats next year brings with it its own kind of challenge and that adding to this makes will be no small feat so can leave the plant grapes somewhere we want to be able to harvest them for at least 30 years yet we know that in 30 years time the climate will be completely different than it is now in the scheme of bundles of. Joy and. Im here and if you told people here at last your highness back for instance read these lane reign supreme and has done for centuries that they should all of a sudden ditch it and switch to completely different Great Variety is that would be an incredible loss of centuries of Cultural Heritage as well as their own admission for most all i know scams guns language. And reducing are in a very south of spain the effects of Climate Change are already being found. In the summer it often doesnt rain for months theres less precipitation in the winter too so the soil has dried up. Crops only flourish if theyre well irrigated just metres away the soil is dry and cracked. Climate research is called. Process to certification and yet in the hands of these arid landscape my 3 act as sort of Fertile Ground that isnt irrigated at all. Located just outside the village of rhonda it was planted by wind grow our frederik shots. Now hes checking whether its time to stop the harvest originally from suede the shots came here over 3 decades ago to start a new life he brought with him a better starting capital from his father and a few land bagger rootstocks from his homeland germany. Friedrich chancers actually a trained gardener but his knowledge comes in handy here because keeping their soil healthy is essential when it comes to growing grapes in sunny Southern Spain a proponent of biodynamic agriculture he uses no pesticides or other harmful chemicals instead he grows harps and other green ground cover to hold the loose and a nuisance soil together. So here you have the really nice and healthy smell of naturalists only you could eat it and i actually did that when we 1st came and wanted to settle here borden in the moon the 1st thing we do is put a bit of earth in your mouth and eat it before you in the pool when your saliva moistens the earth because you can really taste the soil you can really tell the difference it just smells pleasant to look really closely all natural and its loose they say like and yet after a rain you can hold it without getting your hands dirty aboard so the soil is really quite nice thats one of many prerequisites for wine growing but its also one of the most important things on the seventys and. The german vintners neighbors used to laugh at him and say he was crazy for letting the weeds grow but frederick shots proved them wrong to this day his soil has withstood both periods of drought and torrential rain to produce good quality crabs. Here the grapes are ripe in made oldest over a month in germany. Time for the ultimate test. It has a real bite to it its not mellow the flesh is mature with time it becomes nice and dry with a wonderful coffee after taste like a very unpleasant you get a. Few days later the shots family have begun gathering backgrounds. For spanish wife is a Yoga Instructor whos taken time off for the harvest. Daughter anna has no school today and for a very small that has come from germany to help. Everything is going according to plan even though the entire crop was in danger just a few days before a tornado swept through this area causing great damage but sparing the families finger for friedrich shots for thought he might have lost his entire harvest is still hard to bear. Escaped im voting for. Change is real this is that we can no longer say it doesnt exist as its clear to everyone who she will win you can see it in the storms and changes in temperature as related since when 1020 years ago you might use different varieties of grapes simply because the extreme conditions all no longer be so good are these varieties still sinful desires of. The tornado is also a topic of conversation at the vintners there and rhonda the association wouldnt even exist were it not for friedrich shots when he came to and a new c. E. O. 3 decades ago no wine was grown in this region shantz was just 18 at the time and the locals didnt think much of his plans. But thats all changed now there are 25 in us here and wines from wrong have their own designation of origin classification chancers a role model for many here but the wind grows are increasingly concerned about Climate Change its the facts can no longer be overlooked says came a paraphrase of the Vintners Association see i look like i care bears and i think id be asking anyone his from here and is over 60 and theyll tell you that the winters used to be cold and rainy a nearby lies the village of going to the limit the rain has no place in all of that being a cop even fit for the last year the mayor has ordered the collection of rain water to determine the exact amount of precipitation so you can find out exactly how much less rain is falling when Climate Change is real that we dont want to admit it is Something Else ok im a little sick with you. In the village of time dollars time and i know it has the summer of 29 team brought with it many warm days im going out for a last payday canas family has been growing wine on their estate for 9 generations and their winery is considered to be among the best in all of germany together with grandfather klaus those working here have gathered 5 decades of wine growing experience today their harvesting 15 on one. They never used to grow pina and wa because the red wine grapes would usually never ripen and often under the renishaw. But today it shines enough in fact the colors have to be careful for the grapes dont get too much sun and become too sweet so that when you want nitwits like that asparagus. Yes includes the river does this its most of our happy its gotten a little warmer its cute and i remember that as a child especially at our favorite spot dies times when youre back there which lies that in elevation about 250 meters many years the reason i didnt write. Properly you can feel you are garnished wished you could live bad times have changed today vintners like they can try to keep their grapes from ripening too fast this keeps them asked to wait an indicator of the winds eventual alcohol content within acceptable levels should thinning and better soil care can help to achieve those goals and is therefore and this is particularly important for domestic great varieties which needed a temperate climate. This bit this large that heads id say its not going to get any easier but in wine growing terms and going to town or maybe there are still possibilities if were going to use the opportunity to reduce the foliage the leaf canopy to alter the way through relationship i know its over started but the more grape leaves the more assimilation which means more sugar so if we can reduce that a bit and get a little help. Were definitely heading in this direction so im not worried margate in front. Of. Cars pater calla is adapting to Climate Change by employing new methods in the vein not caught in anticipation of more hot summers hes also moving to Higher Ground in this new good because the entire we have to keep the soil healthy and ensure we hand over the vineyards to the next generation and the best possible condition especially if youre good and so we do think about it a lot and of course we think a lot about how Climate Change could affect the wineries future development i was scared and going to. The next generation is already preparing to take over 22 year old phalanx one to step into his fathers shoes and head to find god cannot and its tense generation felix has already completed his practical training with a top ventnor in the palatinate and hes about to begin studying video at the university in guys and but today hes got his hands full because rain is on its way and i want to process as many grapes as possible before hand. Its the start of the 1st semester and then its cannot hes on his way to the lecture hall you. Know. The. Fish you sell in the english today or hell learn about the basics of botany just like his father did 25 years ago and guys and i guess when he 1st got on with klaus painter also studied under professor hans hina shoots the van. In ologist research and hope through our guys in hind University President is on his way to give an object lesson with a great fine shoot. That child says taught at universities in australia france and the u. S. State of california his research focuses on the effect of Climate Change on video culture for some students still new to rank the my students and fields and find that for most of you here even if your familys in the wine growing business the connections arent quite so clear that fits with our topic up there on the wall and one of. The wine growing regions are moving ever closer to the poles in the future scandinavian wines will be the new normal you know its wines from germany or france will be different while it could be increasingly tough to produce wine in Southern Europe i told. The president of guys and Im University is mainly concerned about the speed at which this change is coming about so. Thats why i asked santa does this dust on the aga if we just take the average temperature up from april to october to so which is a prime importance for wine growing dixon then the 28000. 00 vintage is the one we conducted simulations for 20 years ago when we said thats 2050 or less is transfer of to. We how we have been 2018 the average vintage of the year 2050 in a bottle and glass. Back at vine good color there welcoming the last of this seasons harvest of recently grapes 29000 promises to be another good year maybe not as good as the previous one but everyones pleased with the quality. Now yulia and Klaus Peter Keller once again have time to devote to office work along with the accounting they have a few inquiries about in turn shifts to answer years ago a young woman from norway applying to do an internship here she said norwegians loved german reasoning and she longed to discover how it was made the interne ship was the start of a beautiful friendship and a joint project called good. For you betsy basically over a decade ago we had an incredibly enthusiastic in turn named that the closer her time here in dallas time came to an end the saturday she grew. Because she said when i go back to norway ill have no more recently i went but during several talks we came up with an idea. If youre going to norway in the recycling go there to at least enough know and we implemented it we got on the plane and planted a recycling vineyard up there hes going by with some early burgundy vines as well you know they dont know we generally sling might prove viable at some point but the success came sooner than expected in 28000 they harvested their 1st right grapes and graft and Klaus Peter Keller have been in close contact ever since. And i. Havent yet how is where they are no way. Has. Oh. Oh oh they only. Thats right. Yes i i thought so some of our school level last year was extraordinary. Student. As well as also to be harveys time in norway in times peter keller hopes to be that right and to our best to make it possible. Its now november in germany the great harvest is long over more than a 1000 kilometers north of dolls time theyve yet to start bringing in the grapes. Ringback ringback ringback out and grab the can as foma in turn lovingly canvas for the little vignette located in hope aarons garden in kristiansand norway also experienced very high temperatures and little rain in 2018 so by this summers end the recycling grapevines from greenwich has a full ripe fruit. I didnt expect it to be honest i didnt have any trip i didnt have anything prepared to get through right grapes so when it happened already here that fast. 2018 for me that was actually pfaff as i had to rearrange everything in gets to find the press and find the everything i need its to make wine because i didnt think it was possible i was quite surprised. The next year the weather wasnt as warm and graphs reselling grapes didnt require an author must wait in the autumn the increasingly short days and cold nights dashed hopes for a norwegian reselling 29000. 00 vintage such crop failures used to happen at times in germany to. At least thats what were seeing here in our right you get one year that its like a normal nordic summer and then the next one is more like southern french. Atmosphere and the weather will be more extreme actually in 2008 the problem was not the right the droughts so we had. The right. Because the lack of water and i could never ever have foreseen that that. A problem in a country. Like never this year on a graph is giving it another dry shes hoping for. And enough rain to ripen her gripes theres summer even though this weathers not right and its a strange duality to it and one hand i really you know i was so eager in 2000 and i saw the summer started so early and it was so hot in long and i got so excited that yes we can finally get the grapes ripe and its unbelievable what a sensation but it has dark gloomy almost undertone to it because its a sign that. There is a change that you dont really want in the world. View. Shes quite as simple as it seems. To understand the world better we need to take a closer look at. The. Experience knowledge tomorrow she. Puts on the documents. The bicycle and. Today i want to find out why the result is one of the most beautiful river states in germany so im also right along a part of the result psychopath. The beautiful landscape is certainly here. This bike tour is 1st connoisseur. Treated. In 60 minutes on t w. Im not laughing at the germans well i guess sometimes i am but most. I have nothing with that we didnt have anything to think into jamma culture of. New jersey we pick the best drama they own belief because its all about who they know im right so join me for me to get something done. Every 2 seconds a person is forced to flee their home nearly 71000000 people have been forcibly displaced the consequences of disastrous our documentary series displaced depicts traumatic humanitarian crises around the world you know. Forgetting we dont need them i didnt go to university to kill people. Or to have my boss come to me and tell me to kill someone and he got mad if i dont theyll kill me. People feel for their lives and their future so they seek refuge abroad but what will become of the worse crew stay behind its a put up a bill my husband went to peru because of the crisis that i wanted that if he hadnt gone there we would have died of hunger and i want to now.

News live from berlin could war break out again between armenia and azerbaijan fresh violence or drops in a breakaway region the 2 former soviet republics accuse each other every igniting the long running conflict on their border also coming up more antigovernment right. Hes in bella ruse protist is a clear Opposition Leader svetlana taken off the real winner of august selection and say todays rally used to mark her inauguration. And in the bundesliga a perennial champions by many took a trip to hoffenheim on sunday some might call the result a foregone conclusion but was it. Jared reed its great to have you with this is germanys foreign minister high current mass has called for an immediate end to fighting between azerbaijan and armenia heavy clashes erupted today in a renewal of the conflict over the new going to occur back region both sides have reported casualties and accuse the other of starting hostilities now nagornokarabakh is an ethnically armenian on clay weve seen as a by john thats been out of the countrys control since the end of a war in 1904 a Demilitarized Zone separates the region from the wrist of azerbaijan conflict is always smoldering in the region of nagornokarabakh but after sundays attack on the capital step and not kurds it might be on the verge of erupting again some even fear a full blown military conflict the fighting is rooted in a decades long territorial dispute though internationally recognized as part of the by john armenian separatists control the region and the south corpuses both sides accuse each other of starting these latest clashes hijo would pop up off the armenian people have been prepared for the possibility of a war because we realize that there are mean a phobia and hatred with which azerbaijani dictatorship has spread its people that for many decades could not lead to any results other than war. Kong pop it alls. It is no secret that the initial fire including artillery fire was launched by armenia and the 1st to die whereas the johnny servicemen. Of azerbaijan gave a decent response to the enemy and the enemy could not move an inch and likely job when the. Sun team it. Most of the footage that comes out of the region is provided by either the armenian or the Azerbaijani Ministry of defense the latest fighting is the largest outbreak of the dispute since 2016 the conflict dates back to the dissolution of the soviet union since then both countries have claimed the nagornokarabakh region as their own territory a conflict that remains unresolved. On sunday both sides declared martial law with immediate effect meanwhile leaders from around the world are calling for deescalation. So earlier i spoke to roman going to ranko from de w. s Russian Department and asked him what sparked the fighting this time in whats been a 4 decade conflict. We do not know for sure because there is no independent verification on the ground what exactly has happened on the sunday morning so we can only assume that maybe what was on the on which side we dont know someone decided to use the International Situation where there are other conflicts and the International Attention was drawn to them to try to maybe gain ground or try to push this conflict which is very long as youre actually sat there by john showed signs of growing frustration was described click not being a result for decades you must understand azerbaijan is much stronger than i mean its bigger its has no money is military powerful so the president or was it by john made some remarks in germany however i saw him in unica this week security conference saying that he doesnt want any compromise but she says she spoke to the Prime Minister over mania. Who suggested to negotiate but as a by john was not willing to yield and that was Roman Gunter Franco from day w. s Russian Department there well tens of thousands of better received ends have rallied in minsk for a 7th week to call for Alexander Lukashenko to step down sunday not the 50th day of protests since the disputed president ial election in august that lucas hankers opponents say was ringed lucan sankoh denies electoral fraud and was inaugurated on wednesday in a ceremony held without any prior announcement. Still no end to the stalemate but these massive protests just wont stop either the demonstrators are determined to oust Alexander Lukashenko who last week swore himself in for a 6th term in office on sunday they mocked the man they believe is clinging to the throne. Was feel like god. And thats why he made the race if he did not ride again. Opposition leaders that planted to kind of scalia dubbed sundays protest the peoples inauguration protestors came bearing her portrait they believe she not look as shank 01 august disputed president ial election.

In gomel and other cities Peaceful Protesters again faced a Violent Police response according to Officials Police detained at these 200 people there are. Thousands have been arrested in the last 7 weeks and many of those detained have applauded torture and abuse in custody prompting International Condemnation so everybody is looking around the other coming up and i say everybody has this truly was being worried that maybe they will call but there are so many of us. Despite a huge government crackdown these demonstrations havent been crushed but they have so far failed to push look as schenkel out leaving bella roost in crisis and at an impasse. Earlier we asked his Nick Connelly in minsk if he sees an end to the protests in belarus any time soon. Every time that these protests seem to be reducing in size then the belorussians come and surprise us every time the police comes in and makes mass arrests it seems like the next week there are more people out on the streets i think he.

Around 62 percent of voters in switzerland have rejected a proposal to reduce immigration from the European Union switzerland isnt an e. U. Member citizens of the bloc can live and work in switzerland and vice versa the measure to stop that was put forward by the populists so we speak party. In switzerland if you want to change the law you have to put it to a vote one issue on sundays ballots and initiative put forward by the populists with Peoples Party it would limit the number of e. U. Citizens who are allowed to live and work freely in the country the party claimed having too many e. U. Immigrants would diminish the wealth of swiss citizens if passed it would put a strain on the economic relationship between switzerland and the e. U. And also limit Free Movement from millions of swiss citizens but a recent poll by the national t. V. Station shows more than 60 percent voted against the measure. This initiative goes against my convictions it is part of the ongoing sabotage of Bilateral Agreements by the swiss Peoples Party im not at all in favor even less now because this is not the time to isolate switzerland from the state but if switzerland had to withdraw from these agreements i think we would be the real losers we live in a time where people are trying to scare us so we crouch in the corner the coronavirus is not helping with this and when it comes to globalization people tend to say we need to shut it down but i do not think this is a solution.

Well by munich were back in action just 3 days after they you a facility cant win this time against hoffenheim the reigning bundesliga champions went into the cash undefeated in the league since last year about their hosts this weekend and i push over. How weary byron stepped on to the pitch and hoffenheim unbeaten in 2020 but the hopes appear to have a plan prepared to smash that winning streak. And it took just 16 minutes for the goals to start oftentimes our mean big church powered a header home to put them in front. Of thats 1010 minutes later and byron were left stunned again this time the honors went to mr park. But the visitors even though they were clearly outpaced battled back and joshua kimmage made it to one with this cracker going into the half time break i. Often home took advantage of a flat at munich with a relentless attack in the 2nd half the last bit to set up andre crumb r. H. To make it 3. Thank. God i. The final blow to byron was in extra time when crime rate scored once again this time from the penalty spot and confirmed munichs 1st defeat since december last year. For one the final score a tough and time go top of the ball in this league table. And in sundays light on this league a match by bergen voles book ended in a one old draw despite both teams having plenty of chances to score a winner Niels Peterson got the ball rolling for vyborg after 11 minutes a perfectly placed corner from green fall and pietersen was there to head harm voles book also scored from scored from a set pay. He was a prick. In a free kick a few minutes before half time he shot deflecting off a defend his leg and into the net.

And so if they thought and so after 3 or 4 months my boss said to me that i should go back to school and learn how to read and write. But then it would be better. But then again i didnt do that of course and. So i was sad that i didnt learn a trade. But things are looking up. And now theyre now i collect trash but i also enjoy that because of being outdoors and all that. And its great. We have a lot of freedom its great. Hes almost the only one here who is so open about not being able to read or write. But there are others who work for cuba with similar problems. But most keep it as secret. As if it is this ive noticed that men talk about it more openly than women and yes the women tend to talk about it less theyre really ashamed to unfortunately. The men are also ashamed. But the men tend to be more open about it. At least thats the case with me i decided that something had to change it. Is divorced and lives alone is a recovered alcoholic 10 years ago he decided that it was time to come clean no more secrets. My decision triggered by the fact that his daughter was just about to start school. Unfortunately i wasnt able to help her and apart from math i could help her there but thats not enough. Reading and writing are very important skills these days and i have always wanted to be able to write to her but i cant at least not without making mistakes but ill keep on trying im only 63 but when im 65 ill definitely write her a letter. His daughter didnt want to appear on camera but shes proud that her father is addressing the problems. That make you feel when i see the planes flying past i always think youll have to fly to sweden again someday. I start daydreaming. Its beautiful up here where. The view is wonderful. He has fond memories of sweden he spent some of the best days of his childhood there going to school in berlin was a painful experience. There were 40 of us in one class back then and it was really hard to learn with so many pupils. And the teacher who was probably a leftover from the war and used to hit our hands and make a stand in the corner. With that no case standing in a corner is not so bad. But hitting our hands was awful and that was what i had to go through there were 7 of us children in my family. Then my mom sent me away but i was sent to sweden i was 8 years old i lived with auster parents until i was 16 and all those years i was allowed to travel to sweden summer and winter. Of course that was good i learned swedish and i can speak perfect swedish whenever i speak swedish and i also think in swedish the. School report that if the svenska there kanya or though they are only i think a got over i wonder if that shows that youre intelligent. People who are illiterate the ones who find reading and writing difficult arent stupid they remember a lot of things really theyre pretty smart because they remember so much stuff that the others have to check their phones where street such and such and you just know that the street is to the left or to the right. What do you do when you get mail. My girlfriend helps me out. She reads it for me. And if i have to i go to the job center or i call and ask and. Unfortunately she hasnt seen this letter yet ill have to remember to take it with me so she can read it through me. Thanks to this is this dense he has this paperwork pretty much under control these days but before he came clean about his illiteracy things were different there were heaps of unopened letters. 2 boxes full moving boxes really big ones. There was stuff from the job center inside from the local authorities but Youth Welfare office. I didnt throw anything away. And also stuff about my pension and bills were in there too. On top of that got into debt but hes put those days behind him and he no longer feels under pressure to conceal his disability. I used to say id forgotten my reading glasses or ive got another appointment and no time to fill this out now. Take it with me things like that. Stressful yes its stressful of course it is when youre nervous you really need to fill up some form and that creates stress. But one thing thats really close to get is hard these days is raising awareness about adult illiteracy today hes in a pub. The mobile literacy project the often will be 0 as a quiz for visitors anyone can take part and theres a prize. Thank you i think the fix but i think they got a feel for. Us not by every year we put out 160 events like this across germany and one or other of you always help out a lot by approaching people on the street and telling them hey if like us you maybe didnt learn to read or write particularly well then have the courage to do something about it. Its particularly important when people like paan are there to tell their personal stories. But i did it well by my daughter knows that i cant read well and i always wanted to read her a story but i couldnt im still working on it shes 17 now but everything will be ok i will read a story to her one day it was years before. Festered death thank you god ponder knows that his life could have been very different if he had learned to read and write at school and hes very keen to pass on that message to others but with levels.
