Yes because it is not conducive to drinking wine wine lovers have their choice when it comes to european varieties from spain and france to italy these countries not only make world class winds but theyre home to some of the most beautiful wine producing regions but did you know that portugal is known for having the oldest Wine Production the dural valley in the northern part of the country is where sweet port wine is made we sent reporter henneberg belling there a few weeks ago for our series europe to the max and he literally got his feet wet for this years harvest. Welcome to portugal and all children are reaching. Europes oldest wine growing region and home port one. Here very special grapes grow the craftsmanship still counts and the wine is sent through breathtaking landscapes all the way to port au where it can age for years. Time now to find out more about this natural clase. Culture doro its located in northern georgia goes door of the way it stretches 100 kilometers from port au along the door a river. This region has been producing port one for 350 years. A 756. 00 charter defined ultra duro as a port Wine Production area many vineyards west have lost around this time their names have become well known port wine brands kraft is one of them its managing director tells me more about the region. For anyone visiting the drama of these hills the everywhere you go theres another view and another point of beauty and that gets into the soul. This is the key into the radar vineyards one of the regions oldest the climate and soil here ideal for growing the kind of grapes which are pressed to make sweet fortified wine or thought the area used to be secluded and difficult to reach in 2001 unesco declared the entitled to do a region a World Heritage site. Is probably the most beautiful wine region in the world and what makes it extraordinary is this is the intervention of of mankind in a mankind has taken a slope they cut it they made these dry stone walls you know this is this is real human ingenuity to transform a wild landscape into something that can be used to plant plum vines at the winery the freshly harvested grapes are being processed 1st there for. Into granite basins meshed and ferment it. Off. Like in the old days the winemaker still do this with their bare feet. This is unique in this theres virtually nowhere else in the world where foot dragging still takes place and were doing it. On import we the reason were doing it is it pretty much the best all. Right its not entirely clear what makes great stalking so essential maybe its the temperature of the feet or the shape of the food in any case its far. So see it as pushing. The skins and that against the base of the ok and that squeezing and removing just on waters one spot sorry i mean normally what would happen is normally we would have like 2 hours of people here that ok right back ok and then after that when theres a little bit more just the moment its really quite hard but then people do the singing and dancing for the day. And this is how one spear made for thousands of years. Back in the day the wind would then be shipped along the river duro to portugal and from there distributed throughout the world. Major port wine makers have huge warehouses here this is where the wind gauges and where special portland star craft. Wine and so much part. Man shot so that you cannot buy a machine port wine because at that age you see new wood for decades and time sentries you are blamed ink and fine tuning the wine during the kates sometimes trace the ice. A few of these special winds even though i know they contain 20 percent alcohol and armstrong. I am quite impressed with the amount of craftsmanship that goes into making the port wine and it would never have thought that port wine comes in so many different sides that its taste could be so varied.

Germanys Financial Hub frankfurt is reaching new heights and thats because the cityscape is characterized by numerous skyscrapers now most of them were built to house Financial Institutions or offices but this year saw the completion of germanys tallest residential building the grand tower and while it might be one of a kind in frankfurt right now more buildings like it are on their way. Frankfurt is germanys only city with a skyline dominated by skyscrapers and high rises at present the 172 metre gran tower and the 190 meter on the other tallest buildings in this metropolis on the river my. Paycheck. Is the director of the duchess take to a museum hes following the citys Development Plan since the 1970 s. The acceptance among germans for living in a skyscraper has not been great because the high rises you could live in or mostly subsidized housing benefit so they were in quarters on the outskirts where youd rather not go thats been changing in the past 10 to 15 years since people realized you can also live in high rises at the upper end of the scale. The grand tower is germanys tallest residential building and it sets new standards the penthouse apartment sold for over 8000000. 00 euros each. Real estate agent. Has noticed another trend. Whats great is that all different kinds of people are moving into the grand tower from old to young from career starters to retirees and what else is appealing is the 24 hour concierge plus the garden roof terrace and the Sunset Terrace its a kind of Community Living thats very highly appreciated that the omni tone is whats known as a mixed use tower most of the building is devoted to offices and public spaces only the central part with the distinctive hips or staggered floors is reserved for private residences. Pops and i live here and they all need to come on and ill show you around 26 year old me who works in real estate hes glad to be living in frankfort. But dont want to visit apartment is a little dream come true ive always. Been interested in the idea of living in a highrise. My favorite spot you can enjoy the view both night and day. Highlight of the for me is the architecture its by Bjarke Ingels for an apartment in the middle of town to have a balcony is pretty unusual. Because what i really appreciate is that ive got the only apartment in the tower with a daylight bath at the time it was the main reason i picked this apartment. But it has its price he pays around 2700. 00 euros a month for his 65 square meters on the 17th floor. The tallest residential buildings in all of europe are currently. In moscow the highest of which rises 345 meters with a Swimming Pool a Fitness Center and a wellness area and of course is tackler view of the city. But even these are torched by the tallest residential building in the world the Central Park Tower in new york city at 472 meters height and the 2nd tallest skyscraper in manhattan. The 4th can hardly claim dimensions like that at present its germanys biggest above ground construction project for skyscrapers are going up at once here when completed the biggest tower will be the tallest residential building in frankfurt at 233 meters renowned dutch architect is in charge of the skyscrapers design. We shifted and twisted to buildings and saw many directions angeles lee likes. That they would never face each other if its. Even a desire. Bell cony these details as a board as you know if we have a green roof or halt. The new quarter is set for completion in 2024 the project is an initiative a local frankfort developer yens house mine is on the executive board and i helped formulate the utilization concept. We divided the living space among the 2 middle sized towers. Here well have 600. 00 rented and Owner Occupied apartments of the upper price. Of course and were looking forward to the special urban atmosphere and bringing life and people back into the city center mentions a look in the city. For now frankfurt is still germanys year in high rise living but other german cities now also have plans for Living Concepts high off the ground. As you can see today i am joined by a very special guest in the studio this is louis louis. Hello goodbye now normally dogs arent allowed in museums for obvious reasons but in london a special exhibit has just opened for these 4 legged friends now architecture for dogs explores just that it showcases structures designed specifically for dogs now lest you think this is something you might like. Well that sounds promising but take a look. In london sure a female shiba inu thinks that the architecture is particularly fond of his or her owners scent the idea is that its a frame which you can put your own clothes on and the dog will feel comfortable. Cotton titled this design i see you get its intended for dogs with black coats. The idea is that its the dog is able to come a flush itself amongst a kind of black background its made from sheeps wool the whole thing has a smell of delicious smell the dog which attracts it initially and the shape you can see starts in the ground and lifts up words in the sky. The idea is that kind of resembles the way the dog discovers the world around it maybe the way it sees is by smelling the ground and slowly looks up to discover whats surface in front of it. If didnt delete camouflage shows with her like colored fur but shes got plenty more pieces to discover and lots of fellow canines to get acquainted with. Its about more than seeing and sniffing its more than an exhibition its really a Global Project whereby people can interact by downloading versions of the pieces which are exhibited and make them themselves we upload them and they are then shared via social media and theyre also in the architecture for dogs website something which is truly global. Their design combined with humorous ideas equals fun for dogs and their pet humans too you should probably say hot diggity dog. And did you see anything that appeals to you louis. Well i take that as a yes and with that we wrap up another show but dont forget to follow us on facebook or go to our website for this weeks draw and we would like to know which dish is the most popular in your country send us in your answers and by doing so you could become the proud owner of a tablet as always from me and the rest of us here at your max thanks for tuning in well see you again soon.

Revolution on not quite as cuba tries to modernize women are still fighting for gender equality. And all that glitters is not gold sometimes its mica in india child miners collect a mineral widely used in cosmetics. Cellphones and Electronic Devices all contain cobalt and gold medals that are often extracted and some of the worlds poorest regions and conflict zones under hazardous conditions. 1000000. 00 children between the ages of 5. 17 are forced to work in these mineral mines according to the organization stop child labor on average they earn less than 2. 00 a day mining Raw Materials for a sector that sees revenues totaling 700000000000. 00 a year the global Mineral Industry is booming but the poor and vulnerable are paying the price. Commentary and her 5 year old son raj you turn the fin search of micah the glittering mineral plays a vital role in this regions economy for many people mining the raw material is the only way to survive. Children working for hours in the blistering sun in the indian state of jharkhand its nothing out of the ordinary to a better let alone my children are so young. But theres no other way of making a living here theres no farming or nothing i cant afford to send them to school they have to help me that they manage to to and i have kilos a day and we work until 5 in the evening with it that they used to be more than 700 official mica mines in northern india but in 1900 new law came into force banning deforestation that made it almost impossible to access new sources of the mineral but Companies Left but the mines remained today some 50000 adults and children work here illegally almost all the workers are dilutes who occupy the lowest rung in the indian caste system many are members of indigenous tribes who are socially marginalised because theres little in the way of industry in the area people are reliant on the mines a kilogram of mica can bring up to the equivalent of 20 euro cents but often they receive just half of that. Middleman clean the mineral in large filter drums the platelets are then cut into varying sizes and this is how it enters the market. The word mica describes a group of naturally occurring silicate materials that are rigid yet at the same time elastic. For. Many Industries Use the mineral in huge quantities among them the cosmetics sector. A few years ago Anna Maria Yeager and her husband kaya founded their company lethal cosmetics the lego strands that all the ingredients the firm uses are vague an ad ethically sourced in other words they county no animal testing was involved in production and no child labor one of the key role materials lethal cosmetics uses is mica some of it comes from india. Here we have 3 different types of mica. But this is for example a very sparkly version which also has a medic effect to it. And what is great about this stud its very sparkly you but its completely natural so its free for any plastics. The yeagers cant imagine making their cosmetics without mica thats why they decided to hand pick their supplier in india. They chose a distributor who was able to provide assurances that heres micah only comes from mines that dont use child labor. Although in the sector its often difficult to determine where the material originated the key to that is having to pipe cases that are as short as possible because if youre buying from a distributor who is buying from another distributor it becomes very interesting area where things come from with our suppliers its one supplier thats often the manufacturer but also works directly with the mines that also does the audits of the mines and has been the only audited as well and that is where it gained that offer that was mike is used in a wide range of applications the biggest buyer in 2015 in terms of market value was the Electronics Industry followed by companies that added the minolta paint and lacquers micro also finds widespread use in the Construction Industry and of course it plays an Important Role in the cosmetics sector. Every day come on debbie and her son toil away to help satisfy the Global Hunger for micah they never have any problem selling what theyve collected to one of many traders if they receive 150 rupees a little under 2 euros then its a good day she says thats enough to buy some vegetables some rice but for that everyone has to pitch in including both her daughters aged 7. 00 and 9. 00. Advocates and now im always afraid when im working that ill be bitten by insects or snakes or that ill fall into a pit oh its called fire bomb and id really like to go to school. But we need money we dont even have our own house so i have to collect like. An ambiguous law has been in place in india since 2016 no child under the age of 14 is allowed to work but the government itself concedes that around 12000000 children and young people are doing just that aid organizations estimate there are around 40. 4000000 child laborers in india. Its thought that around 22000 children are working in a legal mines in the states of jharkhand and bihar. Many of them have never known a life without work. 3 cars of their size theyre often made to crawl into freshly dug unsecured pants and shafts. Im always afraid when im looking for mica not long ago over there 2 or 3 children of my age were buried him on the shafts and they died i want to go to school i dont want this. For companies that work with my Care Products its a perpetual balancing act between marketing and morals business and conscience that lethal cosmetics in berlin the jaegers are trying to tackle the issue head on wherever possible they want to know exactly where their role materials are coming from they also dont try to conceal from their customers that they use mica is entire regions of india that are financially independent of mica and so if you replace it with something for example something synthetic youre basically taking away their livelihood so i think its absolutely within our responsibility of course is the author within the responsibility of everybody in the chain to make sure that its produced as a player. Because medics industry is very secretive when it comes to micah 27. 00 teams all the launch of the responsible Micah Initiative an alliance of companies obtaining my care from india they all say they have a clear goal to end child labor in the mines by 2022 but an interview on the subject to camera well all our requests including those sent to begin to street names like man the Current Group and the copa shea were turned down. If you ask the miners of jharkhand how to solve the problem. They say genuine change can only come if mining is once again officially allowed because thats the only way to offer workers clear Safety Standards and a fair wage then their children wouldnt have to work some politicians have been demanding the reintroduction of official mining for a long time i did. Child labor can only be abolished if the government legalized the mines and companies assume responsibility companies could then join forces to create cooperatives for the children we need a sufficient number of Public Schools Free Education free meals and basic amenities to enable them to lead a better life. But nothing is changing the government tolerates the system turning a blind eye on a sector that makes a lot of money from micah and the children forced to work with it this young man a child labor himself just a few years ago is in despair yeah i did not mean much you can see that all the laborers here are giving their sweat and blood they are breaking their bones but what kind of life is this you not get that get like is the government cant just look the other way dont we deserve better than this. North to know paul this weeks global teen lives in the capital kathmandu 6 6. I mean he was asked why and the im 79 years ago then i live here in their pocket mind. My father and in general saul there are 10 minutes walk from here and my mother is the house and if. I want to be a dentist i want to generalize order to have a kid in there who has a pet i want to help. I love reading books and with science i write i think i then i will all have differing certainly when then the favorite thing is reading books. 6 to. Read the internet does mean that though the biggest problem and i think it is weve seen kids starving and then we raced food in here that does not make sense does it. I have a lot better life than my grandparents and they didnt have access to all the fascinating things we have like electricity it was not generalized like then but it is now. Change might be underway and nepal but 14000 kilometers away in the caribbean progress in cuba is happening at a slower pace in many ways the country is still culturally and socially isolated the legacy of the cuban revolution when communist revolutionary fidel castro took power in 1959 he nationalized industries and seized the u. S. Owned property worth 1000000000. 00 in 1960 the u. S. Retaliated with a trade embargo that remains in place today. Many cubans are unhappy with a low standard of living and restrictions on travel and up to leave if they can socialism has given Women Education employment and in theory equal rights but they still contend with patriarchal attitude shaped by the revolution and society remain staunchly sexist a place where its far from easy for a woman to assert her individuality. An early m. Is made of stern stuff she runs a Tattoo Parlor one of just a few in cuba a country that still deeply shoving mystics. Because of that when i started out customers would come in and then leave again when they saw i was a woman. Almost all of the equipment she. Uses was brought into cuba from overseas by friends due to its lack of availability there. On a studio is in a legal limbo. Private businesses require the approval of the communist authorities. Zina tattoo doesnt have an official license but its tolerated. With defending a way of life and it was my idea was to create a space where people can meet exchange i did feel good and come back to being vegas that is not just about tattoos. On a belongs to a generation of get up and go young women who want to see their country change not necessarily but becoming more western in a consumer sense but by granting people more freedom to explore their individuality and their passions and interests. All people need is something to eat on a roof over their head and then we talk about social constraints and taxes and what people can buy. The only thing no one talks about even though its what should be talked about is love. Zina tattoo is an exciting place and has been profiled in god books and online magazine run by women it specializes in fashion the arts and Popular Culture making it one of a kind. We need to show what young people are up to because they have less scope than previous generations they have less scope to show what theyre doing even though theyre currently writing cuban history. To many outsiders have and it has a ragged but romantic image a place of fading glory where time has stood still. But it also has pockets of progress where young cubans are striding into the future with confidence and a sense of purpose. And they want the world to know cuba now has access to the internet and while it may be sluggish and expensive its having a huge impact. On us and we know whats happening in the world its torn down barriers created a bridge across the ocean that surrounds us theres an explosion of creativity its like a jolt of electricity. And i think. Yeah yeah get arrow has also been profiled in carbos. Shes a surfer. Another male dominated domain here in cuba. Let as you may you know it at this you make amulets guys told me to surf somewhere else so i wouldnt steal the way. I see myself as a strong woman i can be very determined when i set out to do something i dont stop until ive succeeded i get no love no theres not much of a surf scene in cuba yeah guy has been detained and questioned by police all too often. You know its all they thought i was going to get to my surfboard and head to the u. S. When shes not out mastering the waves ya run surfing classes for children from poor backgrounds. And especially enjoys working with girls. The 36 year old doesnt make any money with her mentoring. And as yet to get any state support but for her thats not the point where.

Meanwhile has got some bad news the lease on her beloved studio is not going to be renewed. But i dont i wont let herself be miserable for a long on words and a ports. Open a new studio a new baby somewhere else. The winds of change are blowing in havana. Thanks to the many young women challenging the patriarchy and living their own individual cuban way. This week in our series global ideas we venture out on to the chaotic streets of nairobi 60 percent of the global population now lives in cities and nairobi has 4500000 inhabitants twice as many as 20 years ago traffic has badly affected the citys air quality and Carbon Emissions continue to rise from year to year our reporter thomas howes ive met some of the entrepreneurs pioneering a switch to electric mobility. Its still early one lever a miner heads into the public stricken districts of nairobi to deliver fresh projects. Its pouring with rain which is unusual at this time of year. But Climate Change is affecting kenyas normal weather patterns. He word gets around on a solar powered car go eat bike. But return. It to you a good 50 people dont know and you were born a polar. I thought maybe it would but the charges couldnt take you up to a 100. So that gives you an experience when youre signing. The bike to reach a speed of 40 kilometers an hour even when its carrying a heavy load the solar panel on the reef protects learoyd from the brain and the battery keeps charging even in this kind of. Leave only works for a local company cool kwanza to cooler. It supplies preprepared staple food to street food vendors in mostly impoverished neighborhoods using sustainable sources of freeing you of all energy. We want to be sustainable thats from the board and driver but also we want to be economically sustainable so that we able to produce products that are affordable for our customers who are poor in order to do that we find more efficient to use green energy the sort of bikes that we use we dont pay any fuel for them and theyre able to carry more cargo compared to by the electric car was developed by the start ups cycles its general manager is confident thats affordable solar powered electric vehicles have a future in africa sustainable mobility is wonderful because its one thats good for the environment especially in kenya and in africa where our population will grow mustve me over the next 20 to 30 years so the environmental case is a very strong case that we always have to make. The number of vehicles driving on gasoline or diesel is on the rise in african cities worsening at pollution an increase in Carbon Emissions. The United Nations Environment Program you know is therefore promoting electrum a billet in africa and also in asia. Its working on the introduction of electric 2 and 3 wheelus. In kenya the biggest emission when it comes to Climate Change is to try and the biggest polluter when it comes to health is the transport sector and within the transport sector all dirty motorcycles are one of the biggest polluters so we want to replace them completely with 0 emissions electric motorcycles like this one. In kenya some 80 percent of the electricity in the country derives from renewables such as solar and wind power and Geothermal Energy ideal conditions. Billeted. And yet there were just 300. 00 electric my pads on the busy streets of the Canyon Capital the main obstacle to e. M. I. Pellets he in kenya is inadequate infrastructure and socalled drivers the battery range is too limited plus there are hardly any charging stations. For electric cars to be mainstream people say we need to do this we need foster audience but for fastest to be established we need electric cars so there must be there must be that group of people thats really to take the foster risk. Canyon company nights energy cells in poll today electric cars and also install solar charger stations the battery range of 100 kilometers is enough to get around nairobi longer journeys and rural areas would be another matter. My there is the most 100 kilometers is enough to get around nairobi longer journeys and rural areas would be another matter. My there is demand for electric vehicles in conservation areas for example and wildlife such as for i was north of nairobi. This line crews say used to be got stripped and its been retrofitted with a super quiet electric engine a major advantage here in the savannah. What i like about it is the silence when youre driving. Close to the world i mean with no one. Here so they dont get to stop going to perth there are new rules. And. You can stop. There or. You wolf without stopping on like a vehicle which means that you have and you know on. And. This. Safari jeep was converted by swedish company. The company has set up shop in kenya with 40 employees and installs electric engines in cause a mile to bikes and soon buses to. Electric my ability has benefits not only for the environment but also for the economy here in kenya according to a. P. Test cofounder philip. For. Going forward we will go more and more towards towards manufacturing of a deeper and deeper level which means that we can make the kenya into the actual central hub for electric vehicles of this region and we can move away from importing these for you closer to having the vehicles manufactured here make sure that we can have an easier way of accepting the vehicles that means that we can have a bigger spread of this because that means that mean faster can have a sustainable transport system. For the time being at least i electric vehicles remain something of a niche market in kenya. A lot of ground will have to be covered before they go mainstream. At quality and nairobi imperious. Place. Thats it for this week thanks for joining us got something to say about the show get in touch just send an email to global 3000 at e. W.
