What makes the ottomanera ferhadija mosque very special is that it is located in banja luka, capital of the bosnian serb entity, republika srpska, which is part bosnia and herzegovina. During the 1992 bosnian war, serb forces destroyed all of the citys mosques in an attempt to strip the city of all traces of its muslim heritage. The diminished number of muslims who remain hope that the reopening symbolizes an acceptance of the regions islamic past. Reporter kemal gunic gets together with his friends at their favorite cafe right on the river through banja luka. All they can talk about is the ferhadija mosques reopening. For years, gunic has been helping to organize its reconstruction and collecting donations. Now the reopening may well help restore muslims faith in the peace process. Very few have returned so far. When i cross the street in banja luka, i hardly ever see anyone i can say hello to. The more people return, the greater the chances ill see someone i know. Reporter many bosniaks live in this valley just outside the downtown area, as a minority in the predominantly ethnic serb republika srpska, an autonomous entity in the bosniaherzegovina federation. Twenty years after the civil war, they still experience hostility and ostracism and have little political say. Gunics house is here, too. He shares it with his wife, their three children moved away long ago. One son lives in sweden. Before he fled the civil war, he worked as a foreman in a shoe factory. Afterwards, he started several companies and achieved a measure of prosperity. 25yearold sandro hergic drops by for a visit. Gunic tells him what exactly happened at the laying of the ferhadija mosques cornerstone in 2001. We hadnt had any problems with the serb administration till then. Theyd actually been friendly and cooperative. There wasnt the slightest hint anything could happen.

Istanbuls new airport, its third, is under construction right next to bozkurts village. Its supposed to become the Worlds Largest. An oak forest once stood on this site. The airport field will come to within 300 meters of our village. Thatll be the end of agriculture here. Over two thirds of our lands have been taken away from us without any compensation.

With six runways planned, the megaairport was conceived to become the principal hub between east and west, between europe and asia.

Its also a symbol of president recep Tayyip Erdogans expanding power. Every now and then, president erdogan heads out to see how construction is progressing. The airport will eventually bear his name. Environmentalists are protesting the loss of vast swaths of forest. The Airport Consortium brushes it off as an attempt to block progress.

Michelle norway proudly boasts having the most electric cars per capita in the world. As the country strives to halve its Carbon Emissions by 2030, more and more incentives are being offered to the public to do away with their gas guzzlers and invest in electric. But in an unexpected twist norways roads are still clogged up. Instead of encouraging people to switch to environmentally friendly public transport the incentives put more cars on the countrys already congested roads. Reporter when jane karlsen gets behind the wheel of her bus, it should be smooth sailing. Oslo has plenty of bus lanes, designed to speed up the flow of traffic for public transport. Instead karlsen often finds herself stuck behind a line of cars. We have delays of up to thirty minutes. Sometimes i spend the entire trip into the city stuck in a traffic jam. The cars that cause these reporter the cars that cause these traffic jams are no ordinary cars. Theyre electric cars, which run silently and without emissions. And theyre permitted to travel in oslos restricted bus lanes. Norway is heavily subsidizing the sale of electric vehicles. Ecars arent subject to the ordinary 25 percent sales tax. Theyre exempt from Public Parking fees in cities, and there are plenty of Battery Charging stations. Meanwhile ecars make up nearly a quarter of new car sales in norway. The incentives are part of a concept by the norwegian government to drastically reduce air pollution. Traffic planner jan lund says the goal is to cut harmful emissions in half by 2030. By 2025, the plan calls for all new passenger cars to be zeroemission. We havent decided to pass a ban on cars with combustion engines. We still believe we can complete this transition by 2025 if the incentives are attractive enough. Its an ambitous project thats attracted a great deal of attention. And its drawn many to visit oslo, including this delegation of Industry Experts and eu parliamentarians, who are being shown the latest in batterycharging technology. Wealthy norway is investing up to 420 millon euros per year in the program, althouh the country has no domestic Auto Industry that will benefit from it directly. But not all norwegians favor this generous incentive program. Transportation expert bard norheim says the program is putting even more cars on the road, with the unintended effect of increasing traffic congestion. The subsidies arent going to the right places. Theyre much too broad, particularly in relation to whats going to Public Transportation and bicycle traffic, which are equally important. So the program is a success, but that success costs more than its worth. But at least the additional electricity used by the ecars doesnt lead to more harmful emissions. Reporter but at least the additional electricity used by the ecars doesnt lead to more harmful emissions. Norway obtains its electricity from hydropower. Bart von depontseele is pleased with his ecar. His commute to work is much faster now that he can use the bus lane. For him, buying an ecar was a worthwhile investment, even though it cost much more than a diesel. There are no road tolls or fuel costs, so its much cheaper to operate. And we want to live more sustainably. That wasnt the main factor in our purchase, but its an added bonus. Reporter but on longer stretches, von depontseele prefers to avoid the ecar, because he worries that he wont be able to find a free charging station when he needs one. So he still has a second car at home with a conventional combustion engine. The subsidies arent reducing congestion, especially in cities. An ecar takes up just as much space as any other car. Reporter next year, norway plans a new law that will reassess subsdies for electromobility. By 2025, norway wants its Public Transportation fleet to be fullyelectric. Jane karlssen hopes that shell soon have the bus lanes to herself again. If all the cars on the road are emissionfree, theyll no longer be allowed to use the bus lanes.

Jule schroder from berlin joined forces with some friends to set about changing that. They founded a project called kitchen on the run. It gives refugees like nadeen a chance to invite friends over and cook for them. I havent cooked a meal for 6 months, so im thrilled to have a chance to make dinner for others in our home. Cooking for others is part of my culture. Reporter shell be cooking here in a mobile transport container on the grounds of this church in duisburg. Jule and her team raised 150. 000 euros to turn it into a kitchen and travel with it across europe. Since it took to the road in march, 1,200 refugees and their guests have eaten dinner in it. But tonight is different, and Jule Schroder is excited. Tonight is special, because its ramadan, so the refugees and people from duisburg who join them tonight will be breaking the fast. Reporter nadeen and her friends from a nearby refugee home are in charge today. After everyones introduced themselves, its down to business.
