now while fires are of course, typically for the season in dry southern parts of the continent, but this time around large areas of central and even northern europe are also bearing the brunt of the conflagration. but meanwhile, farmers in spain, southern region, van der lucio also bringing their hands in despair. they to need a lot of water if they're going to prevent crops like strawberries, vegetables and salads from going to ruin on their giant plantations. but digging wells to give themselves access to ground water is illegal and also has a negative knock on effect on wetlands like that. tony ana, nature reserve life is about to get harder for this spoon. bill heron, environmentalists, philippe, went elsis, and one romero are concerned about the existence of hundreds of thousands of such water birds in the wetlands of dawn. yana in the south of spain because water levels are falling but allow me to leave. i see that live on the family. it's a catastrophe full by a diversity in there by the high and this is a protected zone he'll get out without. don yana has been as good as dr for 2 years now. it usually it's a wetland area with no water because it's wasted, and sometimes by breaking the law community. i don't yama national park, a unesco world heritage site is surrounded by farmers who use ground water to irrigate their strawberry blackberry and raspberry plantations. with a lot of that he had all of them a little, a lot of the rent cards on phillip, his map show all the plantations that have cropped up in the area since the 1980s without a license. yet i am either mean buffalo, legally, both while over a 1000 to legal why am is i've been drilled in the middle of the forest without permission. i mean, it's heavy and the authorities, when negligence, i feel nobody stop the uncontrolled grows. yeah, but up on it, but i think would benefit one wants to show us the illegal wells. he understands the situation of the farmers who've been waiting for years to be connected to an irrigation system in which water is transported to the region from distant rivers. but he thinks it's wrong for them to drill wells if they don't have permission fight whatever and i did out a wolf, a water, a scarce resource has broken out. it's about who gets more. that's the problem. i think i'm and that, that, that, that, that approach we come across a wildfire, a consequence of drought and record breaking heat. there's an illegal. well, right. if i'm of in law on buffalo get that it was built by circumventing the law without papers with him. right? next to a dry river bed or that is public property anika. there will gullible english, although many bully go. either way, many of these fields were planted with farmers simply turning forest or meadows into plantations. we wanted to speak to some growers, but no one wanted to speak to us. even those with licenses refused to appear on camera. but manuel salgado spokesman of the danina farmers association, agreed to talk with us when we globally. lemme lemme, i figured we were getting a bad reputation of consumers led to believe that all fruit has grown illegally. this isn't true. well, well, i see the gothic one. i think the conservative people's party in spain has announced an amnesty for illegal cultivation, which has fueling more attention than many somebody i love you now though you have in these farmers shall be punished and the land shall be cleared. said couple of but the opposite is happening on that they're being rewarded before they, after 18 years of illegal farming up, they're going to get a permit, open, comfortable if they get called the and now that the people's party was recently elected to the ant lucien regional parliament with an absolute majority, one is worried that it will implement what it is promised ill be looking around about an hour alone to the party that is now going to govern here and, and to lucia has promised to legalize everything going on you. and that's why the authorities are waiting and not prosecuting those who've broken the law. and that would just create a big fuss because expectations are so high. other be middle man, well entrees. gonzales is a deputy for the people party in analisia. he doesn't understand the criticism and says that his party wants the amnesty to ensure that all plantations are connected in future to an irrigation system. was a demo, or have you what a low this way will achieve 2 goals. he bought it all, we will be regulating and we will ensure that no more ground water is withdrawn, us all the and the spanish government finally does it duty and builds irrigation channels of we put together for one romero. all this is a power struggle for political and economic interest at the cost of nature. get if you get, if he indicated he and after they want to grow and grow until the done yana nature reserve disappears completely about a couple we can see age or i mean instead of wetland, this is a dep and desert now the european commission has intervened and has given spain an ultimatum, there will be big fines if the nature reserve continues to be destroyed and water intensive, agriculture grows. this might be the last chance for this bird. ah . well, one man who knows a thing or 2 about the horrors of war is australian war photographer, warren richardson. he regularly joined ukrainians up at the front line in that conflict with russia. recently, for instance, he captured some of the fighting in the fiercely embattled southern city of nick upon so why do fighters and why do civilians trust him? or probably because he takes the same kind of risks as they do. oh, oh, oh, the death nose keep bringing out in nico, in southeast, in ukraine. today these people are bidding farewell to the very crust. nicky who died at the front. his son was given the day off to stand by his mother's side during this difficult experience. a lot of people have been morning in nico pole, and wove photographer warren richardson takes pictures of them. he's been photographing people morning he for week. so unless the middle. oh, we met these trillion at a parking lot by the nico pulse train station, morally his while air raid sirens kept blaring where he showed us the course of the nearby front lines. here. there is a nuclear power station here. the russians control this whole entire area, so they're completely in control of fear right now. very difficult to come of and the situation can change at any time. said there were a few moments when the sirens go silent. oh m in that situation it's, it's an everyday situation. so for me, getting on the trains with the people at a fling, you know, you're around women and children that are completely unaware. ready oh, you know, they don't know what's going to happen next. when warren takes photographs, he most is himself in people's lives. he tells their stories and the horrors they've experienced, so that their sacrifices are not in vain. the but sometimes the reality is too brutal and the images unbearable. uncle to like to say, we don't want to publish the pitches quite work, but we can't publish them. so what we're at warren wants to know what this war is doing to the people fighting it. so he sought answers among churchgoers, like from father, mercury's ukrainian orthodox congregation. the clergyman is steadfast, any support of the ukrainian so did a renewal and hoops in constant contact with the front, where he's convinced they're fighting for all of europe. he feels his country has been betrayed by their brothers in face on the ground. you usually get the russian orthodox church is like a tumor ravaging our nation's body, washed in many towns. they welcomed the occupiers with bread and salt on these 2 church. won't you, won't you for your country had been priests who wanted to talk their whole congregations into surrendering roubles or painted crosses on the russian tanks. young your motion is old. we accompanied warren to the russian orthodox clergyman, father nicholas, and we wanted to know where does he stand in this difficult situation? yeah, actually if you're not a religious person, i put all my hope in god's mercy's may he bring his peace easier, but of course, i believe in the defendable or the ukrainian army unusable. they have a great duty to protect their home. last what that i will not he seems terribly kind hearted, but he was done talking politics. if his church was pursuing its own agenda behind closed doors, we could not find out war and doesn't pass judgment with these images. his aim is to understand all sides of the conflict, and he would also show the russian side, he says it nico paul, it's little stories that describe the big picture women just as they are, who left their homes in don bus. they're paying the price for the war and waiting and make a boat to see what's next for them. or i'm watching the general horrid state thinks that it was very sad back at home so. so we didn't have any water for 70 days and the gas was turned off. it doesn't look like it's hard there because the bakers can't make bread without gas wolves to put it in a room all. and so just like catarina here, a nickel, many others are waiting for the war to end. why not or not out of the war? and without the winning, of course, that long live ukraine level varying warren richardson feels it's the children that suffer most from the war. because they're the ones who have to build their lives among ruins, and on the run. in the next generation. where they take on bitterness, i don't know when i take on diplomacy, i have no idea. i would really hope that things are set in place for them that allows them to have some sort of understanding that they can live for future as opposed to live in fear. while another employee may pull things, battlefields is the gas war which could leave many people across europe in during a tough winter. so to prevent the russian leader from having the whole continent at his mercy, people in the netherlands have been looking more closely at their own reserves. they're located in the hunting and gas field up in the northeast of the country, which is viewed as the biggest of its kind in europe. but that might sound good, but there are problems. young liquors damaged house is being strengthened to withstand future earthquakes. it's a complex operation on dish and tile this part of the building we've all ready to pay the scope and you can see it here. i and rod holds the warm our and the inner part of the building to get own desk boy to shoot to sherman house. another section had to be completely torn down, and these in the house was damaged and the aftermath of a strong, earthly covenant will. you're going in with gas extraction has triggered tremulous for decades on that. it doesn't. it was horrible. all. everything was moving in there was a huge noise slim as well. oh, there was one loud bang by bell i mile went on to yo here. it's a huge long little, it was a beautiful house and when we were happy in it, and we are a rundown mitchell for in the earthquake, almost caused the collapse of the more than 100 year old barn as well. it's roof is now reinforced by steel beams. i think miracle kept a record of the earthquakes which began in the region in the night anytime bars. the once and rate was serious. some registering over 3 point is on the register scale. it's been uncommon in the launch, i began to record the earthquakes line is 994 store and i stopped in 2015 and is ram short because there was so many or toys i'm, but the lyla would have gone all the way to the ground right beaches in gordon. the earthquakes have led to more than a 160000 damages claims to date. which prompted the dutch government to scale by gas production and take a decision to close down the gas field by next year. but the russian invasion of ukraine and slashing of gas close to europe has thrown those plans into question. the dutch government is now considering tapping the field, still ample reserves in case of a gas emergency in winter. mckeyan mulder is an energy expert at the university of crone. again, he believes it's possible to temporally res, output the groaning and field to get the residents on board as well. for if you look at the failure which could earn from as could make by selling, producing chronic care, some selling middle market risk yokes that you only use a small part of got these revenues to compensate all habitants of original groningen at the expense of bit higher risk for earthquakes because they still exist. so this will be the best, the solution for, for everyone. what we've got correction wall, but there's also correction ceiling. but residents and groaning in don't trust those promises quick and appropriate compensation has until now been a distant dream. for me we made a new claim. marianna tori has been petitioning authorities for 6 years to recognise and be for the damage she says was caused by gas extraction and pull down the house if needed. she still waiting for a decision. the damage, meanwhile, is growing. this is the type of damage that, that we see a lot. and it's the one that it's a shot of them that really scares me. lot of people are afraid with an next earthquake that the roof will come down. and while the beams may land on you, the issue is lead to heated debate about netherlands, future energy options, local green petition. justin jones says the crisis is an opportunity to ramp up alternative sources and energy efficiency and insists that extending the gaskins life should not be an option. extracting fossil fuels comes at a cost. it comes at a cost to people and it comes at a cost to nature. people think that now the gas tap is being close. further than that, this will mean that we have no more earthquakes, even if we close by the deadline that the government has given it itself. we still have a problem here. it was should not prolong the extraction because the consequences will just go on and on. and on in young whittaker's case, it took 10 years to finally get financial compensation to rebuild his home and medical notes from experience that the earthquakes will continue in the area for some time to come dumpty dish and that is some months where it's quiet, isn't it? then you have a new, ugly lloyd. if you have new damage or you have to register it with the call to tell them, and the whole craziness begins again. it could be either the dot state and the gas the operator have bid out of it. a 1000000000 bureau so far affected residents for rebuilding and strengthening homes. none of the residents are looking forward to continuing damage to their homes. but the dutch government may be out of other options if the gas prices take the tone for the worse in the winter. very interesting. so now we go to denmark, where there are strict provisions over when a child's well being appears to be in danger. when the day each state is obliged to take action, it's a controversial practice and it is currently being hotly debated. which helps to explain what happened when this young woman, hannah york, had her daughter taken away from hannah and her husband. now live here in germany. from where they're fighting for their daughter to be allowed to live with them. once again. hora is still written all over hannah, short's face. it happened 2 years ago. the danish national was on her way to germany with her family. at the danish jack point, police officers blocked their way. it was about her daughter flora. of yet another miss owen lithium. at 1st, we were detained for over 3 hours without clearly being told what it was all about, lee by another that it is with every minute our fear and panic, brood, moon, it's hard to describe them. consider them when it was clear that an 18 month old child was to be taken away from her parents and brought to a foster family by complete strangers. i was just beside myself. all that hannah has laughed of her daughter flora awesome photos. the little girl now lives with a foster family in denmark. the reason offered was that the child's well being was in acute danger. the local authorities and hannah's home town ve bulk claimed that she and her husband came when not taking sufficient care of flora. that late were think me at 1st about some apparently they pigeon holed me after i chose to give my 1st child to a foster family when i was still very young by sunday. ha, i think at yahoo though. but he is an expert from the youth welfare office, found that flora made unusual movements to the side and grunted at a bit of a loner lessening am thanksgiving. we took her to a doctor and he found nothing unusual on the sofa, but the local authority stuck to its assessment and made our lives more and more difficult. come to nothing we did was good enough esa, so anything but not good. fearing for their youngest daughter, elvira, the family moved to the northern german city of flints, ball kim, as a steady john. hannah is pursuing a correspondence course. still, they fear that if they return to denmark, l vera could be taken away from them to just 2 hours away in denmark. last, chris johnson is sitting in his garden, making a phone call. after witnessing traumatized danish soldiers having their children taken away. chris johnson became active as a kind of escape helper. c. v was avoidable, good tool sales could have been fulfilled. sometimes i get up to 3 calls per day from people fearing a forced adoption of their children, an invalid again, for kumarelle, i advised them to go abroad router. so that demos of williams louis. because as long as the authority hasn't made a final decision about the fate of the child, i'll vote it's legal to leave the gala livelihood animal. hannah shorts local authority and denmark was not available for comment. i the danish ministry of social affairs wrote to say that they regret the flight of danish families and their children abroad. but the protection of the child comes fast flints, bogs, city hall notes with mixed feelings. that more and more danish families are seeking refuge from their social authorities. but all new comers. i'll welcome wagner nicholas agates company, allie, you don't advertise and say, come on over here. every one very of super conditions. yeah, i'd rather if someone moves the friends book and we get files that show, it's a case we need to follow. then of course, we have to take care of those cases over definite better because we're convinced that it's good for the child to grow up and in their own family. am off with it. across the border and denmark, youth welfare officers are defending themselves against accusations of hot heartedness. in general, coercive measures are the absolute exception. say the family support officers. many, most of your day, like we're observing that the debate on forced adoptions has led some parents being afraid to seek help from the youth welfare office. and we regret this very much, even if you like, because you can actually appeal against a decision of the youth welfare office. said him in place. and if you're not satisfied with the position of the next instance or easements, i guess, then you can take it to court the daily view. and that's what hannah has done. the trial is scheduled to take place in september, but she has lost all trance in the danish state in france bog. she says they've been given another chance to look for still in a minute. does he go to meet people who can accept his? even if i have a different opinion that he, we never experienced that at home at the heaviest leg up louisville. hannah and kim are expecting their next child and want to prove that they are good parents. well, no doubt about it staying cool and paris in heat wave is not easy. a cold bath might be one solution, having enough to drink is good to her, but not of you just create another waste problem and good for them. this summer, the parisians have come up with a solution where ecological interested shop owners jumping. stephen say mummers store is at the front of the popular district of monterey in paris. he's particularly interested in sustainability and only by his frames that have been produced ecologically. he didn't think twice when he was approached by they owe to perry or paris water team shows equaled on bus b. o and happy to be participating from an ecological point of view at paris. i strand zillow. our 3rd is true that paris is still quite dirty. here from what be she around us, the vol more so it's good to have less waste by filling up bottles of them all to fall the rogue. the city of paris is trying to cope with its waste problem by encouraging people to reuse bottles. since the end of april parisians and tourists alike can fill up on fresh water at a number of stores like this cheese magus. you see them on our goal as clearly linked to the ecological transition and to the fight against climate change. it's a very long term approach. they model title, and that's why we want all parisians to mobilize for more sustainable, greener city, in here period. you have with that. but there is still lots of people who don't know that there is free water available in stores or not. and i had no idea what to do it, none at all. no, i didn't know little toggle. so come on. you said she should have been looking for limited communicate, bruce. so set off all my sheila most people are aware of the hundreds of outdoor drinking fountains dotted around at the city. this one even has sparkling water with a pilot is kicked here from the description. it's clearly a good thing to keep us. we've been coming here for a few months. yeah. and it's a real health free water is also part and parcel of the restaurant experience in paris. if you're lucky, it might even have some refreshing maintenance. well, from that whole story from the shake was invented. people of paris, not too long, this time round on focus on europe. i do hope you've enjoyed the show that we've given you plenty. ah, with who is the end of the pandemic in site? we show what it could look like will return to normal and we visit those who are finding it difficult with success in our weekly coping 19
