stuck 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 parliament's eventful history of this. i think this must be all kinds of german mendez's parliament m o deputies to a democratically elected from world war one to 1999 have a bulk and you'll also see members of parliament who are not things of god. the fitness of the rules are victims. of national socialism, this time 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. this is a really special plane mens of asked and entering the plenary chamber for the 1st time was a big movement for me. that's so great. that's money that i can represent the people in my constituency, the popular the on nation. he is the top visitor attractions are the don't on the
2:34 pm
terrace. there's a fabulous view from here to glassdoor symbolizes transparency and openness. the fact is, this is architect newman, foster redesigns, the buddhist, talked about design so that you can look inside to try. he didn't, you can watch the m p 's and work so to speak. i yeah, and that's 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 wouldn't be complete with food recommendation. so let's check out some delicious javin cruising in the government district. this desk on shift for them is with insights of the ice tax and is super popular with both politicians on tourists, so like steph is short for then to get such late told or permanent representation. after reunification, when the bonus tag was relocated here from born in 1999, many stuff on politicians moved with it and the restaurant has helped to ease any
2:35 pm
sense of homesickness. it serves specialities from the rhine area on the banks of the river. she please this is a super traditional german dish, is called essentially means of course, heavier to go with that. okay, i can totally see why that ice pack is one of the most visited sites in berlin. and it's 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 it's one thing to know how important democracy is, but it's 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. that's because the artist on uses fluid from
2:36 pm
a very special, very personal source. 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 periods blood, and i paint with it. after every cycle, the artist processes 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've never seen the stuff the or is it i was just having this willingness of i want to go deep because my parents 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
2:37 pm
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 paints 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 precedents to follow. so she developed her own techniques and just has this in a live and this, it just goes where it has to go in. and it also makes it a little bit difficult because i need to understand that sometimes it's a little bit more flying in. sometimes it's 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. we're slimy part from the, from the more reddish parts. like it's,
2:38 pm
it's something that requires a lot of work. and i, and i love that i personally love it so, so, so, so much many of my clients saying i'm 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 it's a side effect, so big part of having such a beautiful pigment of blood and to be able to create nice art work 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. she's even founded a movement from minstrel art. but on social media, her work is not always well received. i also received black mail. sometimes sometimes they tell me,
2:39 pm
you should never come to my country. i will jail you, we will slaughter you like to get really deep into this. the cursed me all possible ways. everything about the woman is so considered so taboo. breaking the taboo surrounding ministration is also the theme of an exhibition that for linds museum of oil payers shall go to and the exhibition deals with issues like hygiene products and they're shifting social attitudes towards women's periods through the ages. sure, reader yana victim. so now has also created a space for discussion about ministration. lift you have to dimension, i did you say a half of human kind directly and the other half indirectly you support home and, and what it is about when we talk about menstruation is in fact, 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,
2:40 pm
much more that we come into contact with on a daily basis. i just didn't talk in greenville and many of the pieces on exhibit come burdened with norms and preconceptions about the menstrual period. artist 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 the type who in them and also from the to it. it is a really tough we many society align vx sufficient. a shocking and forces people to ask why? summer reports by menstruation and that's good for jasmine, minstrel. painting is a way to feel 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
2:41 pm
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 it's, it's part of my message and how i want to bring forth my message into the world through her art, both aesthetic and controversial. jasmine alicia carter turns the spotlight on women's menstrual cycles and invites people to shift their perspective eating healthily. that's what the so called slow food movement age to promote. it was founded in the 1980s in italy and remains active world wide. but it's committed to much more than just healthy eating. edward, which tv from uganda is leading the charge edward lucida of uganda is on a mission to improve the world with good nutrition for all. i

2:43 pm
forced to do a quick cottage as if i just meant at school. but to this punishment turned out to be my lifetime passion and driving force to make a change. farmer noel, now noon, yes, field serves as an example for the slow food group and he's so got just north of lake victoria. she's learned how to planted ecologically and sustainably without chemicals or genetically modified. see grain using tried and tested methods so that's good. then we embrace the, the bus, the now i've got this, we also make sure that we try to protect our plants. so we to the risk of extinction. and do they provide for the security to slow food? you've gone to started in 2006 and now has over 30000 members. they support farmers markets with regionally growing,
2:44 pm
produce work with student groups and and so called 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. she's been part of the chef alliance for nearly 8 years, cooking, mainly traditional dishes, traditional foods that really helped us to really interest some 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. that's called check to empower us in foods to have that code so that it's not pushed out. wait. the slow food movement got started in piedmont, northern italy known for wine, hazelnut persimmons, and other regional products. the movement was founded by car lopez cleaning in 1986
2:45 pm
. the year edward would she be, was born cotton little pet cleaning, joined with other activists to fight against the fast food chains. it set 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 it's also got to a tip as the lining up with unity. i feel like i have a lot to offer. i have a lot of experience to share with their world, from my communities, from my country, from my quentin intended that we this is the only way we kind of bridge that if i'm growing up between the north end of the south 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,
2:46 pm
use these affecting that plenty of time. now i have is when we can make better choices, edward would she be also develops new ideas that you've 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. they're an indispensable element of the eucharist and catholic mass communion wafers. but what's the religious meaning behind them? and 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 europe's hosts come from this bakery. the family run clump, a green southern germany has been making communion hosts for 3 generations.
2:47 pm
so where does this partition come from? that's what i want to find that the bakery located in the southern germantown of austin. housing is one of only a handful of bakeries in germany which makes communion hosts. and it's 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 didn't go so well. then a monastery in the area suggested that he could produce wait for it. so that's 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
2:48 pm
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 haven't been consecrated yet. so it's possible. okay, so i can try it, let's say the okay, know how much taste let me just say it's 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. we're father. stuff on debowski
2:49 pm
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 he had a meal with his friends with his followers. and on this occasion, he also used bread 5 and that where does this tradition come from this company or seemed beautiful? this comes from the jewish religion. the will not enough. the jew celebrated passover, and there was also unleavened bread or, 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 fiscal f i it was, i'm part of it. is this on consecrated or consecrated bread 9? does this or no, this is on, consecrated. now, i think missed the bread is consecrated during holy mass consecrated means transformed. this means that the bread becomes the body of christ and life.
2:50 pm
christie, receiving the host is at the heart of christian worship. it's 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, do you notice that production has gone down in recent years? jago homes, i yes, we've actually seen a drop in sale since the corona virus on me. so before covered we had, let's say 100 percent and during coping we were down 50 percent. and now we're back to around 80 percent of our production before co fees puts in fargo, we're not side. what are the busiest times for you in the yard? the the help so busy as times are during the big catholic holidays like all saints day. well, christmas and easter you know, and then it continues until corpus christine before. and these are the busiest
2:51 pm
times the whole time. but communion wafers are still in the central part of holy mass at saint josephs, church even if it's not the holidays, the man who can receive the spread in front bones, we have them. can we prepare children for the fact that this is a special brand support this, that it's not just an ordinary brand that you buy in the bakery, big, long coffee. that's it, that's also valuable. but here again, the priest speaks the words that jesus spoke at the last supper fee is a spend minutes. my gosh. well not that is why it has been transformed into the body in the blood of christ. this is always how do you think 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 to see the, the i certainly feel in light and i had no idea how much it actually goes into making fun little way for what kind of food
2:52 pm
is considered holy, where your from from holly to heat and mistake when dancing in a club, it can get pretty hot. so why not use this heat to generate power? that's 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 and glasgow stores, party goers, body heat for reuse. because these days people want things to be more sustainable. even going out through that when you can contribute to helping lake environment and in the process like holding needs to be a part of the raven and 70. the kid plan on
2:53 pm
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. we're trying to capture and harness the energy created by heat and digs are clubs which is store that and use that to heat into spaces or in the van. you're either at that time or a layer time and we're doing that so that we can reduce our energy footprint of 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, it's stored in 200 meter d, polls to be reused during the day. the innovative system is one of
2:54 pm
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 bar 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 c 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, we're 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,
2:55 pm
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. years with a price tag of $700000.00 bureaus, installing body heat isn't cheap, but other clubs are still looking to follow suit. sustainability is really important to everyone just now and then for just the business sustainability of the industry. and people really need to be looking at a higher they can survive in the future if we reduce, we need where we need to go forward us. so the beautiful thing with buddy, he invites the customer into that and they don't need to do anything different. they need to show up and they need to dance and have funding, and they're 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 wilder, the dancing, the more it helps the planet. and with that,
