And you actually can get one of the best views of the city from the top of the dome right there. Its the most visited parliament in the world every year at 1850000 people a sense that ice pack dont a popular viewing platform over the city. But if youre only looking into the distance, youll miss sites and what down below, here are some of the exciting things you can expect to see on a tour, and what you need to know before you visit that ice top. Before we go in, lets take a look at this excerpt from the basic law or germanys constitution. It regulates the most basic rights and duties of its citizens is and turn 75 years old in 2024 1st. So for me, as a journalist, need a high, every person shall have the right to freely to express and disseminate the opinions and so be writing in pictures i just said there should be no censorship. So how do you get to it . You have to do it in advance. Online is the best way to do that. So nice tech is open daily from 8 am to midnight. Sonya i see to is my guide today. A judge by profession, shes been a boon. Does talk deputy since 2021. I cite the plenary, hold a copy of the constitution, gravitas, i think the most important also to linda german constitution is alta cool. One Human Dignity shall be inviolable. The constitution obeys the clothes that we have in germany is based on the posting on the individual head, on the rights of the individual person and how we can live together in the community. And in all nations. Traces of the past can be signed all over the guys talking. Here on the ground floor, Red Army Soldiers left their mark as they celebrated victory over nazi germany. In may. 1945. This arch installation also documents the parliaments eventful history. As this i seized, disposed to see all kinds of german mendezs, parliament and m o deputies to a democratically elected from world war one to 1999, have a bulk. And youll also see members of parliament who are not things have gone to the end of the body, will serve victims of national socialism. This is where the political work happens behind this glass wall is the Plenary Chamber with a deck to cheese makes certainly to move on the. This is a really special placement of after entering the Plenary Chamber for the 1st time, was a big movement for me. Its so great that i can represent the people in my constituency, the populace, and the on nation here. The talk Visitor Attractions are the dont and its theres, theres a fabulous views from here to glassdoor symbolizes transparency and open. The fact is, is architect newman fester, redesigns, the buddhist, talk my design so that you can do can story to time he didnt, you can watch the m p s at work, so to speak. I yeah, and thats just the way it should be very often who was supposed to be representing the people who should be making decisions for the country and the people our reports wouldnt be complete without the food recommendation. So lets check out some delicious german cruising in the government district. This steps on shift for them is within sight of the ice tax and is super popular for the 1st politicians on tourist select. Staff is short floor extending essentially tone or permanent representation. After unification, when the bonus tag was relocated here from born in 1999, many staff and politicians moved with it and the restaurant has helped to ease any sense of homesickness. It serves specialities from the rhine area on the backs of the refresh please. This is a super traditional german dish, is called mission, essentially meet the on of course here to go with that. Okay, i can totally see why that ice pack is one of the most visited sites in berlin. And its not just because of the view. You learn so much about german politics and history just by being here in the government district. I mean its one thing to know how important democracy is, but its another thing entirely to see it in action. Now to barcelona spain to the studio of painter Jasmine Alicia Carter are often buddhist inspired monologues are done in shades of deep red and brown match. Because the artist only uses fluid from a very special, very personal source a. Ready ready ready ready ready ready this is the medium Jasmine Alicia Carter paints with still perfectly fresh, watery dark, crimson red. Its blood, her own. This is my period blood, and i paint with it. After every cycle, the artist prost as her experiences and feelings of the past month through her painting. In 2016, she started painting with her own menstrual blood, but she had to get used to the idea 1st. Okay. And i really doing this as really weird, you know, like i never see the stuff the or is it i was just having this willingness. So i want to go deep because my periods are just so painful, they have been so painful. I had to get cocktails of medicines to know in the hopes to make a go away, and mostly times it not even the meds could help. And this concept feeling of having to hide them and just not understanding where to put them like it and it was just too much. Art has helped Jasmine Alicia Carter. She pains with a brush or with her fingers on water color paper. She collects her blood with a menstrual cup and can keep it in the fridge for several days. When jasmine started painting at age 25, she had no precedence to follow. So she developed her own techniques. And just as this is a live and as it just goes where it has to go and and it also makes it a little bit difficult because i need to understand that sometimes its a little bit more sly. And sometimes its a little bit more liquid and ready, so i just have to kind of flow with it in some sense. I sometimes i have to separate more slimy parts from the, from the more reddish parts. Like its, its something that requires a lot work good and i and i love that. I personally love it so. So Something Like many of my clients saying im having so many calls. How can i resolve this issue . Right. So it has to come with also taking care of your home health. So its a side effect. So big part of having such a beautiful pigment of blood and to be able to create nice artwork is also in parallel to have a very healthy room for jasmine, her art goes beyond the personal as a body mentor. She tries to encourage others to get to know their own bodies. Shes even found it a movement for menstrual art. But on social media, her work is not always well received. I also receive blackmail. Sometimes sometimes they tell me you should never come to my country. I will jail you, we will slaughter you. Like the getting really deep into this. The cursed me all possible ways. Everything about the woman is so considered so taboo. Breaking the taboo surrounding menstruation is also the theme of an exhibition at Berlins Museum of oil payers to hook tools and the exhibition deals with issues like hygiene products. And theyre shifting social attitudes towards womens periods through the ages curator donovan and so now has also created a space for discussion about menstruation as the clift have to them interested, you know, certainly a half of human kind directly and the other half indirectly you support human and what its about when we talk about menstruation is in fact with least of all the blood itself, is the core of the matter. It is in every day object and speaking to topics and discourses and much, much more that we come into contact with on a daily basis. I just didnt talk in the, in the building on many of the pieces on exhibit come burdened with norms and preconceptions about the menstrual period. Artists representations also reveal the ways administrating women are politically disadvantaged and routinely stigmatized. Crunch can art could lift the taboos on the topic and encourage greater visibility on it. Is that people in bidding them and also from number 2, it is really tough for many society align vx sufficient. A shocking and forces people to ask why . Summer reports by menstruation and thats good for jasmine, minstrel. Painting is a way to deal more in tune with her entire body. The, the artist is now grateful for the period she once found, so painful and hated. For me bringing periods that is something so stigmatized that is something so type of the something that like has so much charge for so many people and put it into a context of beauty is so healing on its own and its, its part of my message and how i want to bring forth my message into the world through her arch, both aesthetic and controversial. Jasmine Alicia Carter turns the spotlight on womens menstrual cycles and invites people to shift their perspective eating healthily. Thats what the so called slow Food Movement age to promote. It was founded in the 1980s in italy and remains active world wide. But its committed to much more than just healthy eating. Edward, which she the from uganda, is leading the charge. Edward lucida of uganda is on a mission to improve the world with Good Nutrition for all i am in reading material. Im the president of stuff for the international. My goal is to make sure that each and every human beings on the planet has access to and kind of enjoy would clean unfair for edward mood. She has headed this organization with a snail as it symbols. Since 2022. He comes to the small italian town of bro, the movements headquarters several times a year to me as an african from you, then that sort of for the means address for the network that is supporting and working with local communities for beautiful. So, but i need to, we work with the communities of pharma as communities of young people communities, so the Indigenous People keep saga is edwards hometown and youve gone to a farmers son. He started working in the fields from an early age, unaware that fair farming unhealthy food would become his mission in life. I was forced to do a good cottage as if i just meant at school. Back to this punishment turned out to be my lifetime passion and driving force to make a change. Farmer noel, no noon. Yes. Field serves as an example for the slow food group and hes so got just north of lake victoria. Shes learned how to planted ecologically and sustainably without chemicals or genetically modified, see grain using tried and tested methods. Flow for good. Then we embrace the, the bus, the now one good thing. We also make sure that we try to protect our plants. So we to the risk of extinction. Did they provide for the security to slow food . You gone that started in 2006 and now has over 30000 members. They support farmers. Markets with regionally grown, produce work with student groups and and so called a Chef Alliance and association of ships who use regional and seasonal ingredients prepared according to slow food principals. Betty not comfortable runs a catering service. Shes been part of the shep alliance for nearly 8 years, cooking, mainly traditional dishes, traditional foods that really helped us to really interest more of our culture. And to give us a sense of belonging. I really sung good for this slow food that they are trying to view. Thats called check to empower us in foods to have that to go to that its not pushed out with the slow Food Movement got started at piedmont, northern italy known for wine, hazelnut persimmons, and other regional products. The movement was founded by carlo pet cleaning in 1986. The year edward and the tv was born cotton low between the joint with other activists to fight against the fast food chains inside settings to take uh, of, uh, uh, lead us it from such a big thing that i caught up at the beginning. But to me its also got to does the learning opportunity. I feel like i have a lot to offer. I have a lot of experience to share with they load from my communities from my country, from my continent under that we, this is the only way we kind of breeds that if im growing up between the north end, the self from italy slow food has conquered the world currently operating in 160. 00 countries at its headquarters and bra, edward meets with members from around the world and coordinates global strategies. Their work focuses on education and information campaigns. Because only way that clear no day during the how the food we eat under the system under which it spread, use these affecting that plenty of time. Now i have is when we can make better choices. Edward maturity also develops new ideas that you gone to slow food branch. His favorite fields to work on are the ones belonging to his parents and other farmers in the area where he still passionately lends a hand there an indispensable element to the eucharist and catholic mass communion wafers. But whats the religious meaning behind them . How are they made . A catholic herself, dw reporter megan lee, went to away for bakery and southern germany to find out have you ever eaten one of these and wondered where it comes from . These little wafers are known as communion house or eucharist house and there passed out why be during Christian Services . Well, many of europes house come from this bakery. The family run clump, a green southern germany has been making communion hosts for 3 generations. So where does this tradition come from . Thats what i want to find that the bakery located in the southern germantown of oxen housings is one of only a handful of bakeries in germany which makes communion hosts. And its their only product produced by a team of 5 employees. Today they produce 200000. 00 wafers per day by machine. In the past, it was laborious. Manual labor prof clump is the owner and operating manager of the family business, which started over 40 years ago. My old father, my grandfather produced passed up before the war before the 2nd world war. Often after the 2nd world war, things didnt go so well. Then a monastery in the area suggested that he could produce wayford. Thats how my family came to produce, wafers and divine. If i mean, if the family is bound by the oath of communion wafer producers, according to the laws of the Roman Catholic church, that means wafers must only consist of flower and water. And the bread must also be 11, meaning without the use of leavening agents such as used for there are also blue and free versions for those who are allergic to reach. The bakery delivers to 1500 churches across germany and other european countries. These are still simple or secular way 1st. So can i taste this is allowed outside the catholic church. Yeah, they havent been consecrated yet. So its possible. Okay, so i can try it, lets say the okay, know how much taste let me just say its like a cell cookie and they deserve. Busy when your mouth to find out more about how communion wafers are used in christian religious services. I went to Saint Joseph Church in berlin. Were father. Stuff on debowski was holding mass the. So why are the way 1st served here in what do they symbolize but you can go to steve state every church service. We think about what jesus did 2000 years ago. And it said he had a meal with his friends with his followers. And on this occasion, he also used the bread 5 and that where this tradition come from this company all seemed beautiful. This comes from the jewish religion. The wouldnt not enough the jew celebrated passover, and there was also one living to brad to support. And jesus was a jew, so he knew about jewish traditions, and he celebrated pass over with his friends and bred was used to pass the office because i, it was, im part of it. Is this unconscious crated or consecrated bread 9 . Does this or no . This is unconsciously created, now hiding this, the bread is consecrated during holy mass consecrated means transformed. This means that the bread becomes the body of christ and life. Christie, receiving the host is at the heart of christian worship. Its a reminder of the words that jesus said at his last supper. Take this and eat it. This is my body. Back in austin, housing, i wonder, is dwindling. Church members in germany has effected Production Output since a lot of people have left the church to notice that production has gone down in recent years. Jago homes, i, yes, weve actually seen a drop in sale since the corona virus on me. So before covered, we had, lets say, 100 percent, and during coping we were down 50 percent. And now were back to around 80 percent of our production before cobit optics puts in fargo, were not said what are the busiest times for you in the the, the top, the busiest times or during the big catholic holidays like all saints day, or christmas going east or below, you know, and then it continues until a corpus kristie before and these are the busiest times the whole time. But communion wafers are still in the central part of holy mass. And saint josephs, church, even if its not the holidays, the man who can receive the spread in front bones. We havent, can we prepare children for the fact that this is a special brand support this, that its not just an ordinary brand that you buy in the bakery big on long calls thats also valuable. But here again, the priest speaks the words that jesus spoke at the last supper. Fees will spend minutes. My gosh, well that, that is why it has been transformed into the body in the blood of christ. This is always how they can, this is not visible on the outside hose outwardly. It looks like a piece of bread of us, but there are also many things in life that can transform you the most beautiful as love. Its a cd, but i certainly feel in light and i had no idea how much it actually goes into making one little wafer. What kind of food is considered holy, where your from from holy to heat and mystic wind dancing and a club. It can get pretty hot, so why not use this heat to generate power . Thats exactly what a club in the scottish city of glasgow does. We take a look at how Energy Conversion can work the here clusters help save the environment. One dance move out of time. The w g. 3 club in glasgow stores, party goers, body heat for reuse. Because these days people want things to be more sustainable. Even going out. When you can contribute to helping lake environment and stuff like folding needs to be a part of the raven and 70 the feed quantity. This system is called body heat and it turns dance floors. And so many power plants, each person provide some 150 to 450 watts, and since 2020 to the club has been using that energy throughout its venue. E, during the day. The aim is to cut fossil fuel use to 0. Were trying to capture and harness the Energy Created by heat and gigs are clubs which is store that and use that to heat into spaces or in the van. Youre either at that time or a later time and were doing that so that we can reduce our energy footprint. Electricity consumption and then remove gas completely from the venue. Ventilator is on the ceiling, absorb the warm air from the 3 dance floors. Heat pumps then convey the energy into the yard using the carrier fluid. There, its stored in 200 meter d polls to be reused during the day. The innovative system is one of a kind David Townsend is an entrepreneur in the Energy Sector and he spent 3 years developing it. The heat comes from the boxes in the ceiling all the way to the more holes in you know, a minute or less. But the amount of time you can store the heat in the rock is, is very flexible. So we can, we can put heat in there during the night and take it out during the day. But we can also put lots of heat in there during the summer. And take it out in the winter. So we knew multiple different length of storage. But how much t o 2 does the system cost and does it really sustainable . So heat pumps operate really efficiently. And so you only need a little bit of Electrical Energy to do a lot of heating and equally on the cooling sides. So by removing the gas boilers from the heating system, were saving 70 tons of c o 2 per year. So the electricity comes from the grid, but the venue has signed up to a 100 percent renewable energy, electricity time. So the electricity is full coming from renewable sources, which means in scotland, especially on a rainy day like this is coming from wind energy with a price tag of 700000. 00 bureaus. Installing body heat isnt cheap, but other clubs are still looking to follow suit. Sustainability is really important to everyone just now and for just the Business Sustainability of the industry and people who really need be looking at higher. They can survive in the future if we reduce, we need where we need to go forward a. So the beautiful thing with buddy, he invites the customer into that and they dont need to do anything different. They need to show up and they need to dance and have funding, and theyre actively contributing to the reduction of energy and those environments. This club in scotland is paving the way and showing that protecting the environment can be a lot of fun. Here, excess is good. The wild is a dancing, the more it helps the planet.
