Climate change – Averting catastrophe | DW Documentary

DW Documentary — Thu, 13 Jul 2023 16:00:37 +0000

In the last 30 years, CO2 emissions have increased by 60 percent worldwide. The most pressing problem facing our civilization is global warming. What solutions could there be? This documentary accompanies activists in their efforts to combat climate change.

According to scientists, if by the year 2100 the global temperature has risen more than 1.5 degrees Celsius on levels recorded in the year 1850, the consequences could be devastating for people and the environment. But will we manage to achieve this ambitious goal? Around the world, politicians, companies, laboratories and universities are struggling to find solutions.

The film team visits climate rescuers in Sudan, Indonesia and Europe. Their inventive spirit cools buildings, connects countries with green electricity lines or sucks carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. Their work helps determine the living conditions of generations to come.

Every time the women of Shagra plant an acacia seedling in the sand of Darfur, it is an occasion of great joy in the Sudanese village. The tree will drive its roots 100 meters into the ground and be better able to withstand the droughts in the Sahel than most other plants. It will secrete gum sap when women scratch the bark after a few years. The sale of gum arabic will alleviate poverty in the village.

65,000 acacias are already growing in Darfur: a blessing for the bitterly poor region, as well as a carbon dioxide reservoir that can help limit global warming.

World War Weird – Episode 5: Flying Saucers & Ghost Armies | History Documnetary

Watch ‘World War Weird – Episode 6’ here: https://youtu.be/jsDLAT4p2Jg

World War Weird explains the most mysterious and bizarre events of both the World Wars. In the chaos of battle men claim to have witnessed some of history’s strangest sightings and in the minds of their leaders; ludicrous military plans have been hatched. From unexplained sea monsters spotted by U-boat captains to some of the weirdest weaponry of the Wars, each episode will examine the stories in fascinating detail. Despite decades of research by historians and experts, many accounts still remain a complete mystery. Using de-classified documents and military historians, World War Weird attempts to explain the unexplainable and explore the fascinating history associated with some of the darkest periods in human history.

Stalin’s Flying Saucer:
At the end of the war British and American troops sweep through Germany looking for the crème de la crème of Nazi Scientists, desperately wanting to enlist them before the Russians. Top secret Nazi blue prints of a super plane are found by the Allies but they suspect the Russians have got there first. A new investigation alleges the most infamous UFO sighting ever at Roswell could be explained by the stolen Nazi wonder weapons Stalin’s scientists got to first…

Ghost Army:
The Allies have a problem when it comes to invading France, that the Germans are defending all the main ports. For a successful D-day attack they need a plan. Operation Fortitude is the most audacious, crazy plan ever conceived in war time but if it works, the German war machine could be finished. Fake harbours, wooden tanks, even fake armies are all brought to play in duping the Germans.

What Happened To Glenn Miller?:
Glenn Miller was the darling of wartime America, his music and military band buoyed the troops and lifted morale. But his mysterious death flying across the English Channel has sparked countless theories of cover ups and conspiracies. The weirdest being that Miller was a super spy. Recent investigations allege that the big band hero was doing a lot more than just singing for America, he was actually on a top secret mission to topple Hitler and bring the war to an end!

The fight for water | DW Documentary

DW Documentary — Wed, 10 Aug 2022 16:00:00 +0000

Climate change is causing temperatures to rise. Extreme weather events and droughts are increasing. Springs and wells are drying up. And everyone needs more water. The battles for control over precious water reserves have begun.

In some countries, water has always been available in abundance – and is wasted carelessly every day. But the climate crisis is changing that. Because the climate is warming, everyone needs more water than ever: for drinking, agriculture and industry. Water is the new gold.

In many countries, the distribution battles for precious water reserves have already begun. In Mendocino, California, there is no longer enough water to flush the toilets. And in Germany, regional drinking water supplies collapse in hot weather. Groundwater levels have dropped to record lows in many places. Will we still have enough drinking water in the future? What happens when our water disappears?

This is a three-part documentary series:
Part 1: The fight for water – https://youtu.be/1MZFrJPPIQ8
Part 2: What happens when our water dries up? – https://youtu.be/pWTg-Gpb2Tw
Part 3: Who owns water? – https://youtu.be/9edWX7TTsLw

Extreme Weather Events – The New Normal? | Extreme Realities | Climate Change | ENDEVR Documentary

Watch ‘How Oil Companies Hid the Truth About Climate Change’ here: https://youtu.be/xVwzxfon7LI

Featuring narrator Matt Damon, “Extreme Realities” investigates one of the most critical issues of our time: the link between severe weather events, climate change, and threats to our national security. Emmy-award winning filmmakers Marilyn and Hal Weiner consult with experts to find out what is happening to our weather. Just pick up any newspaper or watch any television news report and it becomes evident that unprecedented extreme weather events such as severe drought and heat waves, more intense hurricanes, increased tornado and wildfire activity, and crippling blizzards are leaving a trail of death and destruction throughout the world. In the wake of these disasters, we ask ourselves this fundamental question… Are these merely weather events that happen once in a hundred years – or are they early warning signals of a new reality – a new normal – a tipping point pushing our planet towards an environmental cliff?

Extreme weather, rising sea levels, devastating floods – The global climate crisis | DW Documentary

DW Documentary — Tue, 05 Oct 2021 16:00:20 +0000

Extreme weather is occurring more frequently worldwide. Rising sea levels and heavy rain are causing devastating floods. Most researchers agree that these are the consequences of climate change. But what can we do to protect ourselves?

In July 2021, the Ahr Valley in western Germany was hit by a flash flood after heavy rainfall. Over 100 people were killed, thousands of homes were severely damaged. Experts are calling it the ‘flood of the century’. Yet extreme weather events such as the Ahr Valley floods have become more frequent in recent years – not only in Germany but worldwide. Mozambique has been hit by devastating cyclones for the third year running. In Bangladesh, the monsoon season has become heavier and more unpredictable due to climate change. More and more land has been flooded as a result. At the same time, heavy storms that cause flooding and rising sea levels threaten the south of the country. Experts estimate that 30 per cent of Bangladesh will be permanently flooded in a few years, making millions of people climate refugees.

Wealthy countries such as Germany are now investing billions in the battle against the floods. The Netherlands have long pioneered in flood management, building powerful pumping stations, ever higher dikes and flood barriers. None of these options are available to poor countries. All they can do, along with improving early flood warning systems, is to resettle the people affected. The film ‘Global Climate Crisis – How to Tackle the floods?’ shows the unequal fight against the consequences of climate change with examples from Germany, the Netherlands, Bangladesh, and Mozambique.

Germany and the impact of extreme weather | DW Documentary

DW Documentary — Sun, 25 Jul 2021 18:00:05 +0000

Whole areas washed away by the floods, entire villages wiped out, houses destroyed. More than 160 people have died. Despite excellent infrastructure and sound disaster relief, the effects of extreme weather on Germany are devastating.

On the night of 15 July, storms destroyed whole swaths of land in North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate. Shortly afterwards, heavy rain ravaged Bavaria and wreaked havoc in the Netherlands, Austria, and Belgium. Only in the days that followed did the full extent of the catastrophe become apparent.

Now, people are returning to their homes, or what’s left of them. They are overwhelmed by their own helplessness and by the force and speed with which entire livelihoods have been wiped out. Now, the big cleanup begins—which will take years. How are people in the affected regions coping?

How Animals Detect Disaster Before Humans | Sense Of Danger | Spark

Spark — Tue, 11 Jul 2017 16:00:03 +0000

Sense of Danger explores the previously unexplained phenomenon of how animals around the world use their innate senses to predict approaching disasters. This film produces evidence from looking at major worldwide disasters, including the tsunami in Thailand and earthquakes in San Francisco and Turkey. It also looks at the 1975 earthquake in China, the only major earthquake in history predicted by animal instinct – which saved 200,000 lives.
Do our animal friends possess a special sense, well beyond human ability, that serves as an efficient early warning system in times of danger?
