President Donald Trump vowed to end what
he called the riots and lawlessness that
00:00:06
has spread throughout the
country. Just is not
00:00:12
chaos this is our mission and
we will succeed 100 percent we
00:00:19
will succeed our country always wins as
the tribes said he was mobilizing all
00:00:25
available federal resources civilian and
military to stop the rioting and looting
00:00:30
to end the destruction an arson and to
protect the rights of law abiding Americans
00:00:35
including the 2nd Amendment rights just
before the president spoke to reporters
00:00:39
awaiting his remarks in the Rose Garden
could hear loud explosions from volleys of
00:00:44
tear gas fired around Lafayette Park where
riot police holding shields aloft pushed
00:00:49
back peaceful demonstrators rubber bullets
were also fired and police on horseback
00:00:54
were brought in to help clear the area the
movement by law enforcement came less
00:00:59
than a half an hour before
00:01:01
a 7 pm curfew went into effect for Washington
the action cleared the way but not
00:01:06
the smell of tear gas
around St John's Church
00:01:09
a block north of the White House to which
President Trump walked just minutes after
00:01:14
the curfew went into effect the historic
as couple church suffered minor damages on
00:01:19
Sunday evening when
00:01:20
a small fire was set in the basement in
front of the boarded up Church President
00:01:25
Trump held up
00:01:25
a Bible referred to the United States as
the greatest country in the world and said
00:01:30
we're going to keep it safe and then President
Trump walked back to the White House

candidate in the November election is one
of several leaders criticized sizing

military against American people after the
00:02:02
president vowed to order an army crackdown
on the sweeping civil unrest Mr Biden

tweeted he deer gassed peaceful
protesters and fired rubber bullets for

00:02:14
a meeting yesterday with religious leaders
in his home state of Delaware and he
00:02:19
applied this analysis you know. What
00:02:26
this is all.
00:02:37
Vice president went on to say that these
minorities are on the front lines of

America's economy unfairly exposed because
of contact or from whom they might
00:02:47
contract the covert 19 the emergencies
chief of the World Health Organization
00:02:54

the pandemic might peak their a.p.

been recorded globally more
than 105000 in the u.s.
00:03:44
The number of worldwide infections as
well about 6200000 with 1800000 in the

u.s. . The Congressional
Budget Office says the u.s.
00:03:54
Economy could be $15.00 trillion dollars
smaller over the next decade than it
00:04:00
otherwise would have been if Congress does
not mitigate the economic damage from

00:04:44
a. Place. To
00:05:22
.
00:05:51
Go. But
00:05:55
a. Little. While
00:06:06
sold. The.
00:06:14
Little.
00:06:36
I've. Been at it with
00:06:42
a little They Don't Know Me Out
The women say listen to. This.
00:06:50
The ability. Just goes to get
00:06:53
a crazy woman like this is the one major
step that's what we've. Been told don't
00:06:59
let them fail you don't want to trust
implicitly to go straight to hell and I cut.
00:07:04
Out all discussion of the education
2 months ago because they.
00:07:12
Know little or no little.
00:07:33
I've. Tried.
00:07:51
To tell. They shot. Him in the peanut
butter and jelly fish his own nose in the.
00:07:59
Might choke like
00:08:00
a rich. Neck and then. Was. Going along
00:08:07
one of the comments at the
crossroads of. The numbers.
00:08:14
You just keep your example just below.
00:08:21
The front of the train because I was on the
phone. To do it better now we feel like
00:08:27
we just now. Got no one of the
way so we started to miss
00:08:34
I mean. Obviously and down
made our own way never going
00:08:41
slow we pick up the pack
This is what we wanted from
00:08:44
a. C.M.'s will be mysteriously
missing or have much.
00:09:35
Welcome to feel a while in
the heads I am the lady d.j.
00:09:38
Officially check in there with the music

Welcome to learning English
00:29:55
a daily 30 minute program from the Voice
of America on Jonathan Evans and I'm
00:30:02
Ashley Thompson this program is aimed
at English learners so we speak
00:30:08
a little slower and we use words and phrases
especially written for people learning
00:30:15
English. Today on the
program you will hear from
00:30:22
Brian Lynn and on I'm
00:30:23
a Teo later we will present the next
part in our series on America's national
00:30:30
parks but 1st here is Brian
with. Scientists are
00:30:37
urging
00:30:38
a temporary halt to deep sea
metal mining they warn in
00:30:44
a report that it could cause
severe damaging effects on Pacific
00:30:51
Ocean areas the recently
released report examined more
00:30:58
than $250.00 published
studies on deep sea mining
00:31:05
and the research was examined
by the deep sea mining campaign
00:31:11
a collection of not for profit
organizations environmental
00:31:17
group mining watch Canada
also cooperated on the study
00:31:24
the report centers on mining
activities related to small metallic
00:31:31
particles called nodules
found on the seabed the
00:31:38
material can contain different
metals such as copper cobalt nickel
00:31:45
and manganese. Increasing
demand for these metals has
00:31:51
led to
00:31:52
a rise in deep sea mining operations.
The metals are commonly used
00:31:59
in battery manufacturing and other
technology products the deep
00:32:06
sea mining campaign says the metallic
nodules have drawn intense interest by
00:32:13
companies and investors because the
pacific ocean covers about 30 percent
00:32:20
of Earth's surface however
the scientists warn that
00:32:26
mining for these nodules would cause
irreversible damage to an ocean
00:32:33
already under pressure the
operations would affect areas across
00:32:40
the South Pacific including the nations
of Cura boss the Cook Islands.
00:32:47
Tanga and Papa New Guinea
the report notes that
00:32:53
a moratorium is the only responsible
way to move forward until certain
00:33:00
conditions surrounding deep
sea mining can be met the
00:33:06
scientists are calling for additional study
to fully understand the environmental
00:33:13
social and economic risks
Andrew chin was the
00:33:20
report's lead researcher he said in
00:33:24
a statement that nodule mining will
likely result in the loss of sea life
00:33:31
and cause damage to deep sea
beds for thousands of years
00:33:38
he added that the operations could put
people at risk who depend on the ocean
00:33:45
and its continued health Helen
Rosenbaum is with the deep sea
00:33:52
mining campaign. She said The
research showed damage will result
00:33:59
from the removal of the nodules
themselves which unsettles sediment
00:34:06
in addition waste will be released
into the ocean from the mining process
00:34:13
at this point we don't know what's going
to be in that sentiment what kind of heavy
00:34:20
metals might be there how bio available
they are how readily they might be taken
00:34:27
up in the food chain Rosenbaum
said the International Seabed
00:34:34
Authority an intergovernmental
organization based in Kingston Jamaica has
00:34:40
approved about 30 deep sea
exploration requests 25 of them
00:34:47
in the Pacific Ocean 18 of
the licenses cover the area
00:34:54
known as the Clarion Clipperton
zone this area stretches about
00:35:00
4500000 square kilometers
from Cura boss to Mexico
00:35:08
a company planning to be one of the 1st to
carry out mining operations in the area
00:35:15
is Canada's deep green which
aims to begin by 2024
00:35:23
it seeks to mine metallic nodules to
be used in power systems for electric
00:35:30
vehicles deep green chief
executive officer Gerard Baron
00:35:37
defended the company's plans in
reaction to the report he said deep
00:35:44
sea mining offers the best alternative
to surface mining which has
00:35:50
a long history of pollution and
destroying forests and wildlife.
00:35:57
He added that the demand for deep sea
mining will keep rising as electric vehicle
00:36:04
manufacturing increases in
the future. Brian Lamb.
00:36:30
Over the past week people across the
United States have been protesting the
00:36:37
death of George Floyd the
46 year old black man died
00:36:44
while being held by police and
Minneapolis Minnesota videos
00:36:51
of Floyd's death show a white
police officer keeping
00:36:55
a knee pressed on Floyd's knack for
nearly 9 minutes Floyd can be heard
00:37:02
repeatedly saying I can't breathe
the protests and police actions
00:37:09
to control them are threatening to undo
health officials efforts to contain the
00:37:15
spread of covert 19 health
experts need newly infected
00:37:21
people to remember everyone they were in
contact with in the days leading up to
00:37:28
their confirmed sickness this helps
to let others know they may have been
00:37:35
exposed and prevent those people
from spreading the disease even more
00:37:43
the process is known as contact
tracing it depends on people being
00:37:49
able to know who they came
close to. That is no easy
00:37:56
task if someone has attended
00:37:58
a protest with hundreds or even
thousands of other people the process
00:38:05
also depends on something that may be
in especially short supply right now
00:38:12
trust in government these events that
are happening now are further threats
00:38:19
to the trust we need said
Dr Sandro. He leaves Boston
00:38:26
University's School of Public
Health government officials hope to
00:38:33
continue reopening businesses religious
centers and other organizations after
00:38:39
months of stay at home orders and
other infection prevention measures
00:38:46
but health experts also hoped that
reopening would include widespread testing
00:38:53
contact tracing and isolation to prevent
new waves of illness from beginning
00:39:01
it is unclear if the protests will
lead to new outbreaks the protests
00:39:08
have taken place outside where the
virus does not spread as easily
00:39:15
also many of the protestors have
been seen wearing face masks
00:39:22
but experts still worry that public efforts
to contain the disease in the future
00:39:29
could be harmed in Los Angeles
the city's mayor an ounce to
00:39:36
Saturday that coded 19 testing
centers were being closed because
00:39:43
of safety concerns related to
violent protests. And some
00:39:50
medical centers in Minneapolis that
provide testing have been damaged in the
00:39:56
protests
00:39:57
a government spokesperson said reduced
testing could be giving the virus another
00:40:04
head start said Dr William Schaffner
an infectious diseases expert at
00:40:11
Vanderbilt University in Tennessee
contact tracing which is
00:40:18
only just getting started in several
states is an even bigger concern
00:40:25
it involves people who work for or with
health departments asking questions about
00:40:32
where
00:40:32
a person has been and who they have been
talking to and getting full truthful
00:40:39
answers in return Schaffner said
the current situation in the u.s.
00:40:46
Could make people less likely to speak
with anyone working for the government.
00:41:03
Starting in early 2020 governments
around the world ordered lockdowns
00:41:09
closures and other social distancing
rules to slow the spread of co that 19
00:41:17
the severity of the measures differed from
place to place but most people around
00:41:23
the world were affected by Corona
virus restrictions now as the
00:41:30
world starts to reopen in many places
people are sharing their experiences
00:41:37
living under stay at home orders.
Reuters spoke with people in Africa
00:41:44
and the Middle East about the
good and bad of being in lockdown
00:41:51
in Kenya 39 year old businesswoman
Mabel Celina at Temba
00:41:58
talked about the good side of the restrictions
she said when the lockdown ends she
00:42:05
will miss her time alone she explained
that her culture is very social
00:42:13
She said the recent social separation made
her realize that she needs time to sit
00:42:19
alone to reflect and to plan her
life without people bothering her

given him time to breathe and
00:42:40
reexamine how he lives his life now
in his words he is trying to focus
00:42:47
more on the things that truly
matter Alexander Caithness also
00:42:54

00:43:06
a performer also praised some of the
changes the restrictions brought
00:43:12
a dancer with Israel's But Shiva dance
company told Reuters that she likes the time
00:43:19
spent doing nothing yell then as are
said I will miss the comfortable feeling
00:43:26
of it's Ok to not do anything
things would come and go the sun
00:43:33
would rise and set and I would just be
living and that's totally enough she said of
00:43:39
living under stay at home orders. However
the dancer did add there were things she
00:43:46
missed like the excitement of her
public dance performances in the
00:43:52
countryside of Eastern Cape
province South Africa d.d.
00:43:57
Does so will feels
markedly different about
00:44:00
a covert 1000 restrictions she reported
about the difficulties she faced
00:44:07
myself and my husband were stuck in this

get food because they were not making
00:44:21
money in the Egyptian capital Cairo
20 year old student nada Majeed
00:44:28
described lockdown as prison
when I look out I see the same
00:44:35

Nadra looks at it every day I
00:45:18
like the calm she said and being away
from the noise of the capital Beirut.
00:45:25
For her the end of the lockdown also will
mean seeing family less she said that her
00:45:32
brother will go back to Dubai and she
will return to Beirut and will also
00:45:39

00:46:04
a burial place in northern Syria
like millions of others she has been
00:46:11
displaced by 9 years of civil war
in the country he said he longs
00:46:18
to return home we quarantined ourselves
with the dead the 53 year old told
00:46:24
Reuters we wake up and sleep
looking at graves I'm on I'm
00:46:30
a Teo. On today's national parks
00:46:37
journey we explore
00:46:40
a unique landscape in the
north central United States.
00:46:47
The land is big and mostly
flat. There are endless
00:46:53
fields of corn wheat and
soy beans. Colors of
00:47:00
green and gold paint the
earth for kilometer.
00:47:07
But as we travel west the farmland
gives way to wild grasses
00:47:15
it grows tall here under
00:47:17
a huge blue sky. Farther
on however the grass
00:47:24
becomes much shorter
00:47:26
a strong dry wind blows
continuously from the west.
00:47:34
Suddenly the land is torn
and rocky dry and dusty the
00:47:41
green is gone now we are
surrounded by light friends and
00:47:47
browns. Purple and gold
hues can be seen as well.
00:47:54
All all round our broken
disorganized forms. There are
00:48:01
sharp walls of rocks and hills
and valleys of all sizes and
00:48:07
shapes. Welcome to Badlands
National Park in the state
00:48:14
of South Dakota. Hundreds
of thousands of years ago
00:48:22
this whole area was grassland
then forces of nature
00:48:29
destroyed the grass in
some parts water and ice
00:48:36
cut into the surface of the earth
splitting open some of its oldest
00:48:42
rocks nature beat at the
rocks wearing them away
00:48:50
the result is one of the strangest sights
00:48:54
a place of otherworldly
beauty. All together the
00:49:01
Badlands cover more than
15000 square kilometers
00:49:08
about 10 percent this part of
the National Park the area
00:49:15
is
00:49:16
a study in extremes temperatures
in the summer have been
00:49:23
as high as $46.00 degrees
Celsius in the winter
00:49:30
they have dropped to as
low as 41 degrees below 0
00:49:37
life in the Badlands is
difficult its name comes
00:49:44
from the look Koda Native Americans
they called the area Mako
00:49:51
Sica or Les and bad because
of the extreme temperatures
00:49:58
and harsh landscape the
term Badlands has come to
00:50:04
be used for areas where
soft rock is a road it in
00:50:10
a very dry climate looking at
00:50:15
a rock wall in the Badlands is
like looking back through time
00:50:23
the layers and colors in the
Badlands strange formations were
00:50:29
formed over millions of years
the long history of the
00:50:35
Badlands began some 65000000
years ago around the
00:50:42
time the dinosaurs died out
00:50:46
a huge sea covered the middle
of North America it was drying
00:50:53
up the land at the bottom of
the sea was black shale rock
00:51:01
that shale is now at the bottom
of the Badlands. The next
00:51:08
level of rock is from what
geologists call the Oligocene epoch
00:51:16
that period began about
37000000 years ago at that
00:51:23
time the Badlands area was warm and wet
00:51:29
a jungle grew there
00:51:32
a large number of warm blooded
animals lived in the jungle
00:51:39
some of these animals were buried
in the mud left behind by floods
00:51:47
over millions of years their
bodies turned to rock these
00:51:53
fossil remains are
00:51:55
a record in stone of what
ancient animals looked like the
00:52:02
Badlands holds the world's richest
collection of fossils from the
00:52:08
Oligocene epoch the area
contains fossils from rhinos
00:52:15
horses and huge cats because
of this evidence here
00:52:23
we know that the period was
great for mammals their total
00:52:29
population worldwide increased
greatly and they grew in
00:52:36
body size to take over the
land left by the dinosaurs
00:52:43
about 28000000 years ago the
environment of North America
00:52:50
became much drier and cooler
the jungle disappeared
00:52:58
the land in the center
of the continent became
00:53:02
a prairie Prairie is
00:53:05
a large open area of grassland
the prairie here is one
00:53:12
of the world's largest.
The Badlands were created
00:53:19
on the western edge of this great
prairie they started to take
00:53:25
shape as rain wind snow and ice beat down
00:53:32
on the land the rain
and ice tore deep cuts
00:53:39
and the soft earth over
time they became whiter and
00:53:46
deeper the wind dried the
earth and blew away the
00:53:52
topsoil today rain comes to the Badlands
00:53:59
mostly in sudden fierce storms often the
00:54:05
areas rivers are cooked dry
by the hot sun and the wind
00:54:13
yet when it rains the rivers
flood their waters cut even
00:54:19
deeper and to the soft earth
the Badlands are very dry
00:54:27
but they are not desert they are
filled with many living things
00:54:34
there are short native grasses
and wild flowers the national
00:54:40
park is home to many animals
bison big horn sheep
00:54:48
and prairie dogs live here prairie
dogs are small animals that
00:54:54
dig tunnels in the earth and
live underground every living
00:55:01
thing in the Badlands must be able
to survive the extreme conditions
00:55:09
that includes the humans who have
called the area home. Several 100 years
00:55:16
ago the suit tribe of Native
Americans lived all around the
00:55:23
Badlands at the time the
Badlands were rich with
00:55:29
animals there were wolves
and bears bighorn sheep and
00:55:36
deer the most important animal
to the Sioux however was the
00:55:42
bison they look like
huge hairy wild cattle
00:55:50
the Sioux way of life was completely
organized around hunting bison
00:55:57
they used every part of the animal
they ate the meat they made
00:56:04
clothing and tents from its
fur and skin. They used the
00:56:11
bones as tools they even
boiled the feet to make
00:56:17
a sticky substance to hold things
together white settlers who
00:56:24
came west also hunted by
Sen In fact they hunted
00:56:31
bison in tell very few
remained they also planted
00:56:37
crops where the bison had
once fed in time the Sioux
00:56:44
way of life on the Great Plains
came to end and the settlers
00:56:51
and the federal government did not
respect Native American cultures
00:56:59
the government expected the Sioux
Indians to learn to farm but
00:57:06
the Badlands harsh environment
was not good farmland. With few
00:57:12
bison left to hunt the
Indians were sent to live on
00:57:17
a reservation next to the
Badlands area the Badlands
00:57:24
became
00:57:24
a national monument in
1039 Congress declared it
00:57:31
a national park in one
$1078.00 more than $1000000.00
00:57:38
people visit Badlands
National Park each year the
00:57:44
park is now
00:57:46
a protected area for bison the
National Park Service moved bison
00:57:53
back into the badlands but animals
are doing well so are the big
00:58:00
horn sheep foxes' coyote's
golden eagles and prairie
00:58:07
dogs most of the wild animals
must be watched from
00:58:12
a distance especially the
bison the Park Service says
00:58:19
a full grown bison can weigh as much as
00:58:23
a small car it can run faster than
00:58:28
a horse and it can become
angry and dangerous easily
00:58:35
today of course the history of the
Badlands continues to be written.
00:58:42
As measured in geological time the
Badlands are being destroyed rapidly.
00:58:50
The area with its own usually
soft rock is being worn away at
00:58:57
a rate of one centimeter per year. And
00:59:02
a few more 1000000 years the
Badlands will be worn away forever.
00:59:14
And that's our program for today listen
again tomorrow to learn English 3 stories
00:59:21
from around the world Jonathan
Evans and I'm Ashley Thomson.
00:59:52
Is no way news via remote time out there
if I swore an oath to uphold the laws of
00:59:59
our nation and that is exactly what I
will do from the White House Rose Garden
01:00:04
yesterday President Donald Trump regarding
the racial unrest plaguing the United
01:00:09
States of America. Well
Americans were rightly sickened
01:00:16
and revolted by the brutal death of
George Lloyd my administration is fully
01:00:23
committed Bad Boy George and his family
justice will be served he will not have
01:00:30
died in vain outside the
White House grounds it was
01:00:34
a peaceful demonstration on the
streets of Washington d.c.
01:00:37
20 minutes remain before
01:00:39
a 7 pm curfew was set to begin but the
president ordered the National Guard to use
01:00:44
tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse
the crowd so that he could March across
01:00:49
Lafayette Park to St John's
Episcopal Church to hold
01:00:52
a Bible over his head he did not open it
or read it he did not go inside the church
01:00:58
earlier in the day President trumpet had
01:01:00
a video conference with the nation's
governors from the Associated Press Sagar
01:01:04
McGowan He reports amid some of the most
widespread racial unrest since the 1960 s.
01:01:10
The president told governors on
01:01:12
a video conference they look like fools
for not calling it more of the National
01:01:16
Guard later Mares And governors versus
stabbers an overwhelming law enforcement
01:01:21
presence until the violence has been
quell and he'll send in the military to
01:01:26
quickly solve the problem if they don't
officially New York and other states say
01:01:31
the president does not have the unilateral
right to do that against the will of
01:01:35
local governments Washington's Democratic
governor is dismissing the president's
01:01:39
comments as the ranting of an insecure
man trying to look strong solder
01:01:45
a mag on the Washington this is beyond.
00:00:00
Years u.s.
00:00:00
President Donald Trump vowed to end what
he called the riots and lawlessness that
00:00:06
has spread throughout the
country. Just is not
00:00:12
chaos this is our mission and
we will succeed 100 percent we
00:00:19
will succeed our country always wins as
the tribes said he was mobilizing all
00:00:25
available federal resources civilian and
military to stop the rioting and looting
00:00:30
to end the destruction an arson and to
protect the rights of law abiding Americans
00:00:35
including the 2nd Amendment rights just
before the president spoke to reporters
00:00:39
awaiting his remarks in the Rose Garden
could hear loud explosions from volleys of
00:00:44
tear gas fired around Lafayette Park where
riot police holding shields aloft pushed
00:00:49
back peaceful demonstrators rubber bullets
were also fired and police on horseback
00:00:54
were brought in to help clear the area the
movement by law enforcement came less
00:00:59
than a half an hour before
00:01:01
a 7 pm curfew went into effect for Washington
the action cleared the way but not
00:01:06
the smell of tear gas
around St John's Church
00:01:09
a block north of the White House to which
President Trump walked just minutes after
00:01:14
the curfew went into effect the historic
as couple church suffered minor damages on
00:01:19
Sunday evening when
00:01:20
a small fire was set in the basement in
front of the boarded up Church President
00:01:25
Trump held up
00:01:25
a Bible referred to the United States as
the greatest country in the world and said
00:01:30
we're going to keep it safe and then President
Trump walked back to the White House

Welcome to learning English
00:29:55
a daily 30 minute program from the Voice
of America on Jonathan Evans and I'm
00:30:02
Ashley Thompson this program is aimed
at English learners so we speak
00:30:08
a little slower and we use words and phrases
especially written for people learning
00:30:15
English. Today on the
program you will hear from
00:30:22
Brian Lynn and on I'm
00:30:23
a Teo later we will present the next
part in our series on America's national
00:30:30
parks but 1st here is Brian
with. Scientists are
00:30:37
urging
00:30:38
a temporary halt to deep sea
metal mining they warn in
00:30:44
a report that it could cause
severe damaging effects on Pacific
00:30:51
Ocean areas the recently
released report examined more
00:30:58
than $250.00 published
studies on deep sea mining
00:31:05
and the research was examined
by the deep sea mining campaign
00:31:11
a collection of not for profit
organizations environmental
00:31:17
group mining watch Canada
also cooperated on the study
00:31:24
the report centers on mining
activities related to small metallic
00:31:31
particles called nodules
found on the seabed the
00:31:38
material can contain different
metals such as copper cobalt nickel
00:31:45
and manganese. Increasing
demand for these metals has
00:31:51
led to
00:31:52
a rise in deep sea mining operations.
The metals are commonly used
00:31:59
in battery manufacturing and other
technology products the deep
00:32:06
sea mining campaign says the metallic
nodules have drawn intense interest by
00:32:13
companies and investors because the
pacific ocean covers about 30 percent
00:32:20
of Earth's surface however
the scientists warn that
00:32:26
mining for these nodules would cause
irreversible damage to an ocean
00:32:33
already under pressure the
operations would affect areas across
00:32:40
the South Pacific including the nations
of Cura boss the Cook Islands.
00:32:47
Tanga and Papa New Guinea
the report notes that
00:32:53
a moratorium is the only responsible
way to move forward until certain
00:33:00
conditions surrounding deep
sea mining can be met the
00:33:06
scientists are calling for additional study
to fully understand the environmental
00:33:13
social and economic risks
Andrew chin was the
00:33:20
report's lead researcher he said in
00:33:24
a statement that nodule mining will
likely result in the loss of sea life
00:33:31
and cause damage to deep sea
beds for thousands of years
00:33:38
he added that the operations could put
people at risk who depend on the ocean
00:33:45
and its continued health Helen
Rosenbaum is with the deep sea
00:33:52
mining campaign. She said The
research showed damage will result
00:33:59
from the removal of the nodules
themselves which unsettles sediment
00:34:06
in addition waste will be released
into the ocean from the mining process
00:34:13
at this point we don't know what's going
to be in that sentiment what kind of heavy
00:34:20
metals might be there how bio available
they are how readily they might be taken
00:34:27
up in the food chain Rosenbaum
said the International Seabed
00:34:34
Authority an intergovernmental
organization based in Kingston Jamaica has
00:34:40
approved about 30 deep sea
exploration requests 25 of them
00:34:47
in the Pacific Ocean 18 of
the licenses cover the area
00:34:54
known as the Clarion Clipperton
zone this area stretches about
00:35:00
4500000 square kilometers
from Cura boss to Mexico
00:35:08
a company planning to be one of the 1st to
carry out mining operations in the area
00:35:15
is Canada's deep green which
aims to begin by 2024
00:35:23
it seeks to mine metallic nodules to
be used in power systems for electric
00:35:30
vehicles deep green chief
executive officer Gerard Baron
00:35:37
defended the company's plans in
reaction to the report he said deep
00:35:44
sea mining offers the best alternative
to surface mining which has
00:35:50
a long history of pollution and
destroying forests and wildlife.
00:35:57
He added that the demand for deep sea
mining will keep rising as electric vehicle
00:36:04
manufacturing increases in
the future. Brian Lamb.
00:36:30
Over the past week people across the
United States have been protesting the
00:36:37
death of George Floyd the
46 year old black man died
00:36:44
while being held by police and
Minneapolis Minnesota videos
00:36:51
of Floyd's death show a white
police officer keeping
00:36:55
a knee pressed on Floyd's knack for
nearly 9 minutes Floyd can be heard
00:37:02
repeatedly saying I can't breathe
the protests and police actions
00:37:09
to control them are threatening to undo
health officials efforts to contain the
00:37:15
spread of covert 19 health
experts need newly infected
00:37:21
people to remember everyone they were in
contact with in the days leading up to
00:37:28
their confirmed sickness this helps
to let others know they may have been
00:37:35
exposed and prevent those people
from spreading the disease even more
00:37:43
the process is known as contact
tracing it depends on people being
00:37:49
able to know who they came
close to. That is no easy
00:37:56
task if someone has attended
00:37:58
a protest with hundreds or even
thousands of other people the process
00:38:05
also depends on something that may be
in especially short supply right now
00:38:12
trust in government these events that
are happening now are further threats
00:38:19
to the trust we need said
Dr Sandro. He leaves Boston
00:38:26
University's School of Public
Health government officials hope to
00:38:33
continue reopening businesses religious
centers and other organizations after
00:38:39
months of stay at home orders and
other infection prevention measures
00:38:46
but health experts also hoped that
reopening would include widespread testing
00:38:53
contact tracing and isolation to prevent
new waves of illness from beginning
00:39:01
it is unclear if the protests will
lead to new outbreaks the protests
00:39:08
have taken place outside where the
virus does not spread as easily
00:39:15
also many of the protestors have
been seen wearing face masks
00:39:22
but experts still worry that public efforts
to contain the disease in the future
00:39:29
could be harmed in Los Angeles
the city's mayor an ounce to
00:39:36
Saturday that coded 19 testing
centers were being closed because
00:39:43
of safety concerns related to
violent protests. And some
00:39:50
medical centers in Minneapolis that
provide testing have been damaged in the
00:39:56
protests
00:39:57
a government spokesperson said reduced
testing could be giving the virus another
00:40:04
head start said Dr William Schaffner
an infectious diseases expert at
00:40:11
Vanderbilt University in Tennessee
contact tracing which is
00:40:18
only just getting started in several
states is an even bigger concern
00:40:25
it involves people who work for or with
health departments asking questions about
00:40:32
where
00:40:32
a person has been and who they have been
talking to and getting full truthful
00:40:39
answers in return Schaffner said
the current situation in the u.s.
00:40:46
Could make people less likely to speak
with anyone working for the government.
00:41:03
Starting in early 2020 governments
around the world ordered lockdowns
00:41:09
closures and other social distancing
rules to slow the spread of co that 19
00:41:17
the severity of the measures differed from
place to place but most people around
00:41:23
the world were affected by Corona
virus restrictions now as the
00:41:30
world starts to reopen in many places
people are sharing their experiences
00:41:37
living under stay at home orders.
Reuters spoke with people in Africa
00:41:44
and the Middle East about the
good and bad of being in lockdown
00:41:51
in Kenya 39 year old businesswoman
Mabel Celina at Temba
00:41:58
talked about the good side of the restrictions
she said when the lockdown ends she
00:42:05
will miss her time alone she explained
that her culture is very social
00:42:13
She said the recent social separation made
her realize that she needs time to sit
00:42:19
alone to reflect and to plan her
life without people bothering her

a performer also praised some of the
changes the restrictions brought
00:43:12
a dancer with Israel's But Shiva dance
company told Reuters that she likes the time
00:43:19
spent doing nothing yell then as are

00:43:26
of it's Ok to not do anything
things would come and go the sun
00:43:33
would rise and set and I would just be
living and that's totally enough she said of
00:43:39
living under stay at home orders. However
the dancer did add there were things she
00:43:46
missed like the excitement of her
public dance performances in the
00:43:52
countryside of Eastern Cape
province South Africa d.d.
00:43:57
Does so will feels
markedly different about
00:44:00

00:44:35

00:45:25
For her the end of the lockdown also will
mean seeing family less she said that her

Ghazi lives in a temporary
clot shelter on the edge of
00:46:04
a burial place in northern Syria
like millions of others she has been
00:46:11
displaced by 9 years of civil war
in the country he said he longs
00:46:18
to return home we quarantined ourselves
with the dead the 53 year old told
00:46:24
Reuters we wake up and sleep
looking at graves I'm on I'm
00:46:30
a Teo. On today's national parks
00:46:37
journey we explore
00:46:40
a unique landscape in the
north central United States.
00:46:47
The land is big and mostly
flat. There are endless
00:46:53
fields of corn wheat and
soy beans. Colors of
00:47:00
green and gold paint the
earth for kilometer.
00:47:07
But as we travel west the farmland
gives way to wild grasses
00:47:15
it grows tall here under
00:47:17
a huge blue sky. Farther
on however the grass
00:47:24
becomes much shorter
00:47:26
a strong dry wind blows
continuously from the west.
00:47:34
Suddenly the land is torn
and rocky dry and dusty the
00:47:41
green is gone now we are
surrounded by light friends and
00:47:47
browns. Purple and gold
hues can be seen as well.
00:47:54
All all round our broken
disorganized forms. There are
00:48:01
sharp walls of rocks and hills
and valleys of all sizes and
00:48:07
shapes. Welcome to Badlands
National Park in the state
00:48:14
of South Dakota. Hundreds
of thousands of years ago
00:48:22
this whole area was grassland
then forces of nature
00:48:29
destroyed the grass in
some parts water and ice
00:48:36
cut into the surface of the earth
splitting open some of its oldest
00:48:42
rocks nature beat at the
rocks wearing them away
00:48:50
the result is one of the strangest sights
00:48:54
a place of otherworldly
beauty. All together the
00:49:01
Badlands cover more than
15000 square kilometers
00:49:08
about 10 percent this part of
the National Park the area
00:49:15
is
00:49:16
a study in extremes temperatures
in the summer have been
00:49:23
as high as $46.00 degrees
Celsius in the winter
00:49:30
they have dropped to as
low as 41 degrees below 0
00:49:37
life in the Badlands is
difficult its name comes
00:49:44
from the look Koda Native Americans
they called the area Mako
00:49:51
Sica or Les and bad because
of the extreme temperatures
00:49:58
and harsh landscape the
term Badlands has come to
00:50:04
be used for areas where
soft rock is a road it in
00:50:10
a very dry climate looking at
00:50:15
a rock wall in the Badlands is
like looking back through time
00:50:23
the layers and colors in the
Badlands strange formations were
00:50:29
formed over millions of years
the long history of the
00:50:35
Badlands began some 65000000
years ago around the
00:50:42
time the dinosaurs died out
00:50:46
a huge sea covered the middle
of North America it was drying
00:50:53
up the land at the bottom of
the sea was black shale rock
00:51:01
that shale is now at the bottom
of the Badlands. The next
00:51:08
level of rock is from what
geologists call the Oligocene epoch
00:51:16
that period began about
37000000 years ago at that
00:51:23
time the Badlands area was warm and wet
00:51:29
a jungle grew there
00:51:32
a large number of warm blooded
animals lived in the jungle
00:51:39
some of these animals were buried
in the mud left behind by floods
00:51:47
over millions of years their
bodies turned to rock these
00:51:53
fossil remains are
00:51:55
a record in stone of what
ancient animals looked like the
00:52:02
Badlands holds the world's richest
collection of fossils from the
00:52:08
Oligocene epoch the area
contains fossils from rhinos
00:52:15
horses and huge cats because
of this evidence here
00:52:23
we know that the period was
great for mammals their total
00:52:29
population worldwide increased
greatly and they grew in
00:52:36
body size to take over the
land left by the dinosaurs
00:52:43
about 28000000 years ago the
environment of North America
00:52:50
became much drier and cooler
the jungle disappeared
00:52:58
the land in the center
of the continent became
00:53:02
a prairie Prairie is
00:53:05
a large open area of grassland
the prairie here is one
00:53:12
of the world's largest.
The Badlands were created
00:53:19
on the western edge of this great
prairie they started to take
00:53:25
shape as rain wind snow and ice beat down
00:53:32
on the land the rain
and ice tore deep cuts
00:53:39
and the soft earth over
time they became whiter and
00:53:46
deeper the wind dried the
earth and blew away the
00:53:52
topsoil today rain comes to the Badlands
00:53:59
mostly in sudden fierce storms often the
00:54:05
areas rivers are cooked dry
by the hot sun and the wind
00:54:13
yet when it rains the rivers
flood their waters cut even
00:54:19
deeper and to the soft earth
the Badlands are very dry
00:54:27
but they are not desert they are
filled with many living things
00:54:34
there are short native grasses
and wild flowers the national
00:54:40
park is home to many animals
bison big horn sheep
00:54:48
and prairie dogs live here prairie
dogs are small animals that
00:54:54
dig tunnels in the earth and
live underground every living
00:55:01
thing in the Badlands must be able
to survive the extreme conditions
00:55:09
that includes the humans who have
called the area home. Several 100 years
00:55:16
ago the suit tribe of Native
Americans lived all around the
00:55:23
Badlands at the time the
Badlands were rich with
00:55:29
animals there were wolves
and bears bighorn sheep and
00:55:36
deer the most important animal
to the Sioux however was the
00:55:42
bison they look like
huge hairy wild cattle
00:55:50
the Sioux way of life was completely
organized around hunting bison
00:55:57
they used every part of the animal
they ate the meat they made
00:56:04
clothing and tents from its
fur and skin. They used the
00:56:11
bones as tools they even
boiled the feet to make
00:56:17
a sticky substance to hold things
together white settlers who
00:56:24
came west also hunted by
Sen In fact they hunted
00:56:31
bison in tell very few
remained they also planted
00:56:37
crops where the bison had
once fed in time the Sioux
00:56:44
way of life on the Great Plains
came to end and the settlers
00:56:51
and the federal government did not
respect Native American cultures
00:56:59
the government expected the Sioux
Indians to learn to farm but
00:57:06
the Badlands harsh environment
was not good farmland. With few
00:57:12
bison left to hunt the
Indians were sent to live on
00:57:17
a reservation next to the
Badlands area the Badlands
00:57:24
became
00:57:24
a national monument in
1039 Congress declared it
00:57:31
a national park in one
$1078.00 more than $1000000.00
00:57:38
people visit Badlands
National Park each year the
00:57:44
park is now
00:57:46
a protected area for bison the
National Park Service moved bison
00:57:53
back into the badlands but animals
are doing well so are the big
00:58:00
horn sheep foxes' coyote's
golden eagles and prairie
00:58:07
dogs most of the wild animals
must be watched from
00:58:12
a distance especially the
bison the Park Service says
00:58:19
a full grown bison can weigh as much as
00:58:23
a small car it can run faster than
00:58:28
a horse and it can become
angry and dangerous easily
00:58:35
today of course the history of the
Badlands continues to be written.
00:58:42
As measured in geological time the
Badlands are being destroyed rapidly.
00:58:50
The area with its own usually
soft rock is being worn away at
00:58:57
a rate of one centimeter per year. And
00:59:02
a few more 1000000 years the
Badlands will be worn away forever.
00:59:14
And that's our program for today listen
again tomorrow to learn English 3 stories
00:59:21
from around the world Jonathan
Evans and I'm Ashley Thomson.
00:59:52
Is no way news via remote time out there
if I swore an oath to uphold the laws of
00:59:59
our nation and that is exactly what I
will do from the White House Rose Garden
01:00:04
yesterday President Donald Trump regarding
the racial unrest plaguing the United
01:00:09
States of America. Well
Americans were rightly sickened
01:00:16
and revolted by the brutal death of
George Lloyd my administration is fully
01:00:23
committed Bad Boy George and his family
justice will be served he will not have
01:00:30
died in vain outside the
White House grounds it was
01:00:34
a peaceful demonstration on the
streets of Washington d.c.
01:00:37
20 minutes remain before
01:00:39
a 7 pm curfew was set to begin but the
president ordered the National Guard to use
01:00:44
tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse
the crowd so that he could March across
01:00:49
Lafayette Park to St John's
Episcopal Church to hold
01:00:52
a Bible over his head he did not open it
or read it he did not go inside the church
01:00:58
earlier in the day President trumpet had
01:01:00
a video conference with the nation's
governors from the Associated Press Sagar
01:01:04
McGowan He reports amid some of the most
widespread racial unrest since the 1960 s.
01:01:10
The president told governors on
01:01:12
a video conference they look like fools
for not calling it more of the National
01:01:16
Guard later Mares And governors versus
stabbers an overwhelming law enforcement
01:01:21
presence until the violence has been
quell and he'll send in the military to
01:01:26
quickly solve the problem if they don't
officially New York and other states say
01:01:31
the president does not have the unilateral
right to do that against the will of
01:01:35
local governments Washington's Democratic
governor is dismissing the president's
01:01:39
comments as the ranting of an insecure
man trying to look strong solder
01:01:45
a mag on the Washington this is beyond.
