Rebel forces in the Northern Region of firing rockets into other parts of the country. As coronavirus cases surge across europe, austria and now has 3 weeks, a lot of down to stem the rise. The country hopes this latest measures will ease the stress on its health care system. Im nick spicer. Welcome to the program. Supporters of u. S. President donald trump are filling the streets of washington to back his unsubstantiated claims of election fraud. The outgoing president made a surprise appearance at the rally, greeting supporters from the window of his motorcade, which made a detour on the way to his golf course. Demonstrators say vote rigging denied Trump Victory last week, but federal prosecutors overseeing the vote and a state Election Officials say that is not the case. A large number of Police Officers has been deployed to prevent clashes with trump. Demonstrators, meeting near by and silence is at the rally in Washington State and youve covered many rallies before and during the election. How does this one compare . It doesnt compare. Rodney, i mean you see the Supreme Court, there are thousands and thousands, tens of thousands of people came to d. C. Trump support us. Maggie marchers to make america great. Again, marchers, Trump Supporters. His base on him here in d. C. And this is fly, makes right here for them. And this event the Supreme Court. Why is this . Because they hope, if nothing else hopes that trump ministration the president himself is managing to convince the Supreme Court to take up the case and to decide who won the election. We talked to a few people here. Of course, lets just listen in what theyre, what theyre thinking about why theyre here and what the future holds. Its ongoing. Trump is the one for us. Its like fake news is complete alvis. Its like file real news and youll be able to find out the truth. The deep say its all against him, doesnt matter. Everyones a guess and dont believe a 2nd. Theres tons of voter fraud out there. So much evidence that he was in search times of evidence. If you look behind me right now, and you tell me that biden won this election, youre absolutely insane. And how about social distancing . I didnt see any of those people wearing masks, other recommendations being respected. No short answer, no social distancing, not happening maybe a little bit when people monitor and look at the crowd behind me right there. I mean, this is packed, this doesnt look like much from far away about this is packed, this is shoulder to shoulder, face to face. Protesting, demonstrating and listening to speeches is your answer and amassed, i mean, i would say a furred of the people here is maybe were in mass, but the majority is not wearing any mass. So there is a profound disbelief that covert 19 is a problem. And should be answered with more restrictions, a lockdown or anything like this. People here say the cure is worse than the problem itself, too bad. The 202, almost 250000 people, americans are dead right now, but life has to go on and the economy has to be rebuilt. This is their focus according to who and of course, what they hear from the, from his version all along. And what can you tell us about the Police Presence on the ground given that there are and trump demonstrators on the streets in washington . Are they preparing for possible clashes there on a percentage of you. It is that you actually almost dont see any police right here. Very, very peaceful march, peaceful protest after say absolutely peaceful. Even we have the press are not very often subject to any assaults, verbal assault, of course, only. So please this year in massive numbers, by the way, there are well prepared to jump into a situation if a situation becomes a little dicey there. And there is absolutely a possibility because they are anti Trump Supporters and leftist groups here in d. C. To have also said they want to protest those protesters, the polices job is to separate those 2. And so far theyre succeeding in this, theres no no violence off of really of note anywhere here so far. Ok, thank you. Stephanie station simons, reporting from the pro trump rally in washington d. C. And we turn to ethiopia, where fears are growing about the escalating conflict in the Northern Region. The Central Government is accusing forces there of firing rockets into the neighboring and haro region fighting between ethiopian troops and the Peoples Liberation front began last week. Thousands of civilians have fled, many with harrowing stories, a sprawling camp and sudan as another refugee crisis unfolds. The sounds of ethiopians have been streaming across the border, fleeing the fear and chaos of the latest fighting in the north. Many who arrive here bring stories of escalating violence and atrocities. Forces entered and burned their homes and killed people. They left us with nothing. So we fled here to sudan. I left with my parents and my child with only what we wore. Now we have nothing. We fled from death and murder. The exodus comes as Embassy International reports. Evidence of a civilian massacre. In the town of my kudrow in the Northern Region, witnesses say the victims were hacked or stabbed to death. Most of believed to be ethnic. Im horas, a region with a long history of tensions with the uns Human Rights Commission is voicing alarm. The high commissioner is calling for a full inquiry, if confirmed as having being deliberately carried out by a party to the current fighting. These killings as of alians would of course, amount to war crimes. Its still unclear who is responsible for the mass killings follow days of clashes between federal troops and to ground forces. The region has become the latest flashpoint, stemming from ethiopias complex, if any politics to groans controlled ethiopias Central Government for 30 years. But their power has waned under Prime Minister ahmed. He came to power in 2018. Increasing resentment in tensions became open defiance in september. Went to grab, rejected the Central Governments authority and held its own elections. Now the feud has to send it into conflict with the government value to crush what it calls a rebellion if the criminal decide a legitimate target, mr. Vision is it is taught and fugitives and brought to justice as civilians flee fears amounting that ethiopia could be at the beginning of a protracted and bloody civil war.

Schools out, but the mood is far from jubilant. These children and their parents in austria had been hoping that lessons would continue despite the climbing coronavirus figures. The school should stay open. But i also hope that this course they opened. It will be easy for the children. They have their daily schedule there, and the teachers are better trained than the parents. On saturday, chancellor Sebastian Cordes was forced to disappoint them, as well as closing schools and shuttering nonessential shops. He had this drastic appeal. If thats in the boat, me to anyone. Every social contact is one too many. You spend your free time exclusively with the people in your household. And if you live alone, identify one person that youll stay in personal contact with. On this lockdowns, you personally can contact play in poland to surging figures. More temporary hospitals are being created in the cities to cope with. The increase in the country reported a wreck or daily high of coronavirus related deaths on saturday. This pushes the toll to over 10000 on the streets, the dawning realisation that this christmas could be very different from the last one that had occupied. Its a little bit depressing. The atmosphere is sad such a sad time despite the fact that the holidays are coming. One is definitely a bit scared, but if you have to go out, you have to do it. But normally you choose to stay at home across the border in germany, the mood is somebody, 22 weeks into a limited lockdown. The number of new infections remains high. In her weekly online video, the chancellor urged people to prepare for months to come. The winter ahead will be very demanding for all of us. The virus will govern our lives for quite some time yet.

Using their cell phones, people can blow on a dandelion in one location and make peonies or Cherry Blossoms bloom in another. Its the brainchild of japanese artist, sue. He believes the breath can carry blessings from one city to another. Currently, the installation is available in several parts of japan, as well as singapore.

Jesus, god, this elite credible story is bobby one starts december 10th on c. W. Doing the dishes, folding laundry and packing a lunch box scientists. I explore in the different ways in which robots could help us. How exactly could robots shape our everyday lives . Our topic on ship today. Japan produces around 50 percent of the worlds robots. No wonder, its called the robot nation. This is even an official government scheme that focuses on a new Industrial Revolution through robotics. But robots are commonplace in many other areas too. In japan, where nearly 30 percent of the population is 65 or older, robots are more important for personal use. He is a world leading roboticist on why and get beyond it when you can have them are all bots that count. How are they . I believe they can have their robot that kind of a robot so high. It seemed human symbiotic in the future. Symbiotic robots, that sounds a little too was science fiction, new to me. Still, many Tech Companies claim that their own butts can really make a difference in house work, but this is still far ahead in the future, even in japan. At the moment, most robots take care of one specific chore and leave the rest to humans like me. It is a japanese startup, however, working on a robot which they claim will take care of all the housework. But thats a cat. Introducing you go all around talent and future household superstar hugo can grip his hide, adjustable and rolls on wheels. The start of your robotics promotes. Hugo is a more discrete and cheaper alternative to a human cleaner. Were pretty uncommon in japan. At the moment, you go still appears to be quite slow and clumsy. But in the future, this new robot butler is supposed to be able to take on any household chore imaginable. I would like to let robots handle repetitive talk routine so that people can be more creative. For example, if the robot does the housework for us, we can dedicate this time to our family and have fun with all we have more time for us. This is how we want to improve the quality of life for people in japan. Equipped with a total of 22. 00 sensors and 3 cameras to assist in navigating space and recognising objects. Despite being equipped with an ai system, you go with still incapable of doing chores properly on its own. So a staff member has to operate it by Remote Control. A controller synchronizes the robots movements with those of the human operator. Hugo is still a long way off from working autonomy. Asli. So you go is operated by someone i dont know from a remote place. What do they see as the can get turned off . What happens to my data . Who protects my privacy . Here everybodys claim that operators only see blurry images, so have to guess what theyre cleaning to someone like me, thats not very convincing. I can be a bit of a neat freak. So you go to is also working on the tunnels robots will help manage house work. But this one issue that is difficult to solve. The robot has to know how much pressure the sponsor needs to apply on to different surfaces to properly clean them with an expensive flat screen t. V. The machine should be very careful when humans and robots work together, security becomes important. This robot arty working with humans in japan and europe. Next age is a humanoid robot, developed to collaborate with human colleagues. Companies like oman and kolata robotics, leading the race and developing Collaborative Robots. These new colleagues have one importunate vantage over people. Their work is precise and they never get tired. Or really we have to make serious productivity improvement in japanese use machines, a robot to do this. So were not going to steal your robot. Robotics trade fairs like iraq to tokyo show what the future workplace could look like in japan. Robot production has long been a key industry around 130 Companies Make robots here. In the past. These trade fairs were opportunities for companies to show off. Big robots used in industrial production. Now theres a trend toward service and partner robots. So we also know more recently the governments focus has shifted from making new robots to using them sensibly in society. Suited to you. It will suck. I just saw this. They got suckered its coated you and i think we need to think of robots as tools or partner was to reach our goal of doing a Better Society where people can feel good and healthy. But i dont know youre talking with us or you struggle with us. You could talk us through a couple of years with the us. Its a big vision with a long way to go. There are still many technicalities that need to be addressed, particularly because Collaborative Robots are often a Security Risk for their human colleagues. Since robots cant estimate their own strength, next age operates in batteries, saving not 8 cameras attached to its head and arms are supposed to help the robot to analyze space and objects. Interchangeable. Robot hands used to grant enhance its many uses, but at around 90000 euros a piece. Not every company can afford this technology. The right now, next stage is just working in the factory that this type of Collaborative Robot will be needed if we were. Were hoping that will someday be able to take it to their construction sites and forestry fishery homes in japan. There were not the taking away jobs that there will be there will be a core workers. Thats what it is. Like many other western countries, were still prejudiced against industrial robots. Here in germany, the main argument is they take away one jobs, but theyre leaving all something else. Coworking can also make jobs easier. French roboticist joints young want to go has been working and living in japan for a long time. She says that code working with robots is viewed differently. Theyre very different needs something which defines about craftsmanship and the art of making things perfect. There is also like a very clear social care by a Company Based on that was and so they never were introduced to me. They swung into just to make the work things that are working with the robot is something that is, i dont know, or i like having a robot in your company. Something that is really nice. This attitude that robots are cool is a sentiment that you go developers also ship a Remote Control used by and operate it isnt exactly cool, but its only a temporary measure. You will believes that Intelligent Machines will take on chores independently in the future. Hugos target audience or the elderly and professionals. The Company Believes that you can make a real difference in their lives, but its also expensive. Depending on operating time, the monthly rental costs are between 800 to 600 euros the upside. Is you go supposed to make life longer and more comfortable . In the future, i find vision, robot, and lettering on houses and doing all new home, all alone with the advancement of medical care in japan. I think that this will enable people to live longer than they did about the robots, like hugo also sought after for their ability to assist in medicine, especially since the outbreak of the coronavirus now robotics companies. I preparing their robots to assist in 3 key areas. Cleaning robots could contaminate rooms or dispose of hospital waste, so humans avoid risks. Check ups robots could help check on patients confined to their beds or in quarantine. This could alleviate the pressure on medical stuff. Telemedicine robots have been assisting during surgery for a while in japan. Theyre also creating socalled surgical robots. Tokyo bay start up river field, wants to launch its new model in a few years to compete with the current m. V. P. Of surgical robots made in the u. S. When it comes to surgical assistance, da vinci is state of the art. This robot can remove tumors tissue from someone with prostate cancer, but it doesnt operate autonomously a control panel. Let surgeons use the robot arms in real time, which has one big advantage, motion scaling and trammel filters. This allows the surgical robot to work more precisely. But the da vinci robot has 2 disadvantages. It doesnt receive any haptic feedback, meaning it cant feel for specific body parts, and its very expensive. Up to 2000000, europes tokyo based Company River field is trying to solve these problems. Their robot is quite similar to defend and will cost less. Here the robot arms are powered by air pressure. This enables haptic feedback, reducing the risk of injury. So this should make the operation more intuitive. Believe more in your path through treatment. Many other countries are also turning to robots to help in the medical and care sectors. Future physicians will have to train intensively to use these new technology to benefit only for the patient for the patient to become recovery of the faster they can do. The surgery by sitting in the chair is, can be minimized by using surgeons probably wont be replaced anytime soon. With the right mobile communications, doctors could soon be performing tele surgery across long distance, and this may be beneficial for People Living in remote areas without access to medical care. Whether theyre assisting in surgery or doing chores at home, robots are supposed to help people with things that are difficult or that we simply dont want to do. In japan, i saw how ai machines are used in dating. And if it were up to professor for me, documents to know, we wouldnt even be aware of the role that machines play in our lives. There is a term the tie, always eagle, which is that of the disappearing robot. But thats, i mean, in the future, robots will become invisible to us. But they will be such a common part of our lives that we dont really think of those robots and, you know, well, if my own vacuum robot had only done his job properly, then id probably still be using it. Robots for personal use at home, helpful, or just new electronic waste. Let us know what you think on facebook already w dot com at to you would you for more videos from japan, including well robots . Thats it for me today. See you next time someone change something is what heidi believes. Im a person next to him to soon as i find a solution, i dont think the former minister of ecology knows this well with me for instance, and soon called returning to see me the next time. Fortunately, hes not like you need to use for support for fair trade coffee. Well, 3, german entrepreneur is want to show how it can all be done in to better their coffee is produced by an african womens cooperative roasted on the spot. Transported with wind power surge, 100 percent environmentalists friendly guilt free period of 30 minutes on d. W. Ws crime fighters are back africas most successful radio drama series continues. All of us odes are Available Online at the course. You can share and discuss on w. Africas Facebook Page and of other social media platforms. Crime fighter 2 mean no. Every day heroes heroes who do their bait to protect the environment can be found across the entire continent. Well introduce you to some of them in todays still welcome to new edition of in africa. I am sandra to know were coming to you from kampala the capital of uganda. Thanks, sandra. We begin in west africa, senegal, to be precise, where we meet a man who has been fighting for the environment for 40 years, as an activist, as a government minister, and now as the head of a countrys reforestation agency. Now i have a Conservation Foundation in lagos, also coming up, a young woman in kenya uses flies to tackle waste time produced by bloom and how villages in the south to all fight breast size as our community and our communities in mozambique got the recycling box. There are many across the continent who are giving their all for the environment. Today we meet one of them. Thats mine. A former senegalese environment minister is dedicated to be greening the region, not just from his desk as a lobbyist, but on the ground together with local residents. Hes been planting mangroves and other trees, even using rather unconventional methods. At times. Senegal needs more trees and he who heads a large code for a station project is busy getting them planted. Scientists say that we call it major the 1st station, sinegal will lose half its arable land within the next 5 years. Here on the coast of the casa months region, farmland has become unusable due to the nation mined grooves that once protected the shoreline, we cut down firewood in building me to. Well repeat, their families were desperate sold was encroaching into their rice fields which were no longer producing rice. It was very difficult for them. Bettman grooves, a rich existence. They hold back floodwaters detail and erosion and ect. Is a natural sold beriah. They also store up to 5 times as much Carbon Dioxide is other trees. Once it became clear, just how beneficial the monk lives are to farmers, things begin to change their present. They were concerned about their rice fields and they became heavily involved in planting mangroves because of their rice field model among the d. M. It was one of them for 4 years, villagers in ca, noble have been working to save their paddies. The initiate, he is organizing financed by the energy or oceania. Ily served as its president for many years for their locals in our rice fields no longer produce good. Have a speaker salt water is invading them more and more. We know no. The reason is because the money grows have disappeared. We need to replant them, like in the ocean. Ian provides us with mangroves for the north, in the extremely arid motm region, trios to the Sahara Desert island came up with a more conventional method during the wet season. Nomads heads graze here, the animals have been recruited to help plant a forest. It will be part of the great greenwald that aims to cattell the city became of this a held region. The head is fed the fruits of the poor southeast, a fast growing tree that needs new water. The animals spread the seeds in their down. We are going to try these all across any go. And we hope that in a year or 2 will find peace growing alongside lights or grazing routes in senegal, or closer back to casamance. Because senegal lances for african mahogany, as its commonly known, has become rea here. Theyre also very few old animals left to spread the see if theres a prompt, luckily anymore, with all the anymore, it was necessary to think of an alternative way to disseminate the seeds. I dont wait for things to saw themselves as i am a man of action and i needed in affordable solution. Working within certain constraints does allow me some freedom. As soon as i find a solution, i apply it and move forward. These are called luxuries and this is his solution here. Young men from the village of use, leans to scatter seeds of the african mahogany. The intention is to introduce more species diversity. All of our doing it here because in this area is basically one type of tree, the new york were trying to encourage the growth of other trees, like the bio engine, but its among groups that are particularly geared to lifelong ecology tied to, you know, i lose heart jew trees efforts over 150000000 birds have already been planted in a few years time. Canopus rice paddies should be sold free when the great green wall is complete. That it will be the biggest manmade garden on earth, improving the environment by tree. But its not just mega projects like this one that are important. Smaller individual initiatives can help too. And those are the ones we love to showcase doing a bit segment. This time coming to you right from here in nigeria. Lets take a look. This is not a face mask to keep out the coronavirus. Its a piece of art. This woman is made of textiles. But looks like a we know flowers. Nigerian artist marcelina, gets her material from tailors in lagos. Mostly its discarded fabric swatches. Sometimes just like you to just try to do a new task, but because i go there and they have some stamps. And they also continue to see thats a little strong. Anyone who wasnt in, on average worldwide one garbage truck full of clothes and stuff, and a landfill, or in an incinerator each 2nd with her art muscle. Lena opera, joe torre, is giving cloth a 2nd life by the same time making a living. Her works have even sold for as much as 25000. 00. Recycling has rarely been so practical and beautiful. And how about you . If youre also doing your bit, tell us about it visit our website. Also said to us a tweet hash tag doing your best. We share your story of the wonderful works of art and what a way to use fabric scraps. Now we have to you up to a beautiful spot in that its hardly an office. Its one of the continents biggest apple growing region that is true near to. But it has also become a battleground in the small community. There is a pharmacy, a low corns over one of the most fundamental questions in farming today. Should pesticides be used or not . Africa reporter went to hear both sides of the uk, and thats the substance, is that so division in italy is outlined valleys pesticides are in widespread use. A fact that has angered some locals and sparked a heated debate between conventional and organic farmers who take flu as a name. It says on the packaging that it can harm unborn children in the womb. Just imagine this sort of product is doing the rounds. Goes my, that risk would be us. The Fruit Farmers were the ones who handle this stuff and its concentrated form. Once it lands on the sprayer, its been diluted by a factor of a 1000. The village of mas is located in one of europes most picture rest landscapes. In recent times, the local pharmacy has become the center point of research into the presence of pesticides in the n. H. Back in 2018, an independent Environmental Institute set up to measuring devices in the pharmacists garden. The ad was monitored for 6 months. Although the closest fruit farm is about a kilometer away, several pesticides were detected in the em. And this is a small garden surrounded by hedges, right in the middle of a village with many houses. Theres a big tree which is supposed to offer protection, but few to more than 25 pesticides have been detected with, you know, in god we have miles, has been fairly. At present, there arent many which is located near the village. Many locals want to see the landscape maintain its diversity. Its a different story further down the valley where orchards dominate the landscape. One in 10 apples in europe, a grown in the region of south to roll. 6 times more pesticides than is average in farming in italy, a sprayed on these monocultures assignment is an apple fama. He prefers to use terms like Plant Protection of the pesticide growing fruit without Plant Protection products is nearly impossible at the moment. Conventional farmers do their thing, they have their means and the organic farmers have theirs. But both kinds require Plant Protection by the plants and shoots, but nestled between the orchards is all been glued or has organic herb farm. Hes previously been banned from selling his produce because it contained pesticides. Now hes invested heavily in foil coverings to protect his plants. If you count them out of the air here contains a cocktail of contamination and were not just breathing one substance in a minute. Nobody knows what happens inside the body when we breathe in this cocktail of substances, the advent of anger, the local Farmers Association says the situation has improved. Conventional farmers now have to plant protective hedges if they border on organic farms. All set up nets, which is supposed to stop the spread of pesticides, small steps of this kind of going some way towards easing tensions, but the widespread use of pesticides appears to be here to stay. So then also, i cant really comment on the health risks. What we always say is that the substances have been tested and approved by the health ministry. Guardsmen used to be approved soon. All the stuff that was sprayed 1020 years ago has now been banned. At the time they were allowed, and im convinced that the substances allowed today wont be allowed. And a few years both a film american, the pharmacist, have set the ball rolling and it continuing the fight for organic farming to become the norm in and around. In a local referendum, in 2142. 00 thirds of the villages voted to ban pesticide use, the village also declared itself europes 1st pesticide free community. The Farmers Association took the matter to court several years later. The crew except that the result of the referendum, but the fight over the use of pesticides continues. Pharmacist, johannes fired no one to patting us, refers to a un report that described the necessity for pesticides as a myth. Literally says the assertion by the agriculture mccool industry that pesticides are necessary is not only inaccurate, but dangerously misleading. Push came from us. It came at us like thunder. Many conventional farmers are concerned about the future of their businesses. The case has now reached the Supreme Court in rome, which will decide whether or not as designed should be allowed in the region. Up of production is clearly important. In ivory coast, it is growing. In fact, the west african country is the biggest producer. But those brains are exported and processed over little the profit goes to the local farmers and even to their wives in a border in the south of the country. A womens party has settled to do things differently and reaping incredible results in terms of the environment. Typically considered the domain of men, there used to be no role in the cocoa harvest for these women. But now theyre farming and producing themselves. Juliette quasi founded a cooperative with women in her home village in the southern part of ivory coast. Its aim is to produce cocoa beans, more sustainably, and to use them for making more than just chocolate. This is it. Nothing is thrown away. We start with their muscle, its the sticky pulp which is never used in cocoa production. We add flavors and spices to it, which is unusual and innovative. Mom. The women use the juice from the pulp to make products such as flagrant, cocoa beans, and the husks to make tea. The 40 local women who have joined the cooperative are now earning an income for themselves and their families. By 50 i used to only work occasionally when i didnt make much money for but since i joined the cooperative, thats changed what i can and the equivalent of 4 heroes 50 every day. Im happy because thanks to the cooperative, im now independent. The majority of ivory coasts 26000000 population work in the agricultural sector. 40 percent of the worlds cocoa comes from the west african country every year, around 25000000. 00 tons of shells and beans, end up in garbage dumps or are burnt. Producing more goods from. This is good for the environment and enables families in the village to earn more from their harvests. Weve also, if you know, i believe we need to increase the value of our cocoa to give it more credibility overall. With my approach, it is the women who are involved in this aspect of their inclusion will make a real difference here. They will improve the cocoa value chain. Something that until now was the province of men. With, with julia, is making a delivery to a small shop in abidjan that sells the cooperatives products. The flavored cocoa, beans, spice mixes, and tea. The German Development agency g. I. C. , helped to establish the contact among the organizations activities, the supporting sustainable initiatives to secure farmers livelihoods across africa. But then she can be a role model for other women when it comes to expanding back ok, processing and developing new products. Good movie, juliet quasi has an apartment in abidjan in the kitchen. She cooks up her products and experiments with new ideas. With us, not the inspiration strikes when im in my kitchen. When i start one recipe, an idea for another one pops into my head. I dont know why it just comes naturally and julia, idea of getting more from cocoa ponds is catching on. The Ivory Coast Government is in the process of building a Biomass Power generation plant that will turn the countrys abundance of coca production, waste into electricity. Another young woman who has built up a solid, ugly Business Company is featured in our next report to last set up a somewhat unusual farm and they will be, it breeds lies lies. These insects arent very popular with us humans, but the last is showing that the blob salt a fly, in fact, deserves some respect. This container is full of black soldier, fly larvae. Many might find them disgusting, but for talaash schreibers, they were the basis of a business idea. She had 2 years ago.

Polina kaner is the president and has led the Organization Since it was established in 2013. This is an association focusing on women with low incomes. So what we do is basically focus on recycling. That not only gives women an income, but also helps to keep our city cleaner.
