00:00our plan is to go to switzerland i don't know exactly when the way that we're setting up the
00:04cancellation of u.s vice president jd van's trip to switzerland for talks on the newly signed deal
00:10with iran shows how fragile the agreement is the executive director of the wilfrid martin center
00:17told your news the cancellation of the meeting in switzerland uh indicates the the deal is very
00:24fragile and the problem problem remains you have the the issue of you know iran nuclear capabilities
00:32enrichments to 60 60 percent straight of hormus and how is that going to open up and the regional
00:40implication u.s and iranian officials as well as mediators from pakistan and katar was set to meet
00:47in bergenstock on friday for talks on how to implement the memorandum of understanding
00:53and i think vans is maybe trying to avoid a situation where he's kind of somehow going
00:58there and trapped normally in those meetings you you when you go there it's normally for signing you
01:03need to know what's going to be agreed and and that's clearly is not the case on wednesday u.s

05:13small discreet and smoke-free nicotine pouches are gaining ground in portugal even before clear
05:20rules for their sale have been established they are placed between the gum and the lip and release
05:25nicotine without combustion for months these products were sold in tobacco shops and kiosks
05:31in a legal gray area tabaquera began officially marketing nicotine pouches in portugal this year
05:39after they were added to the list of tobacco and nicotine products subject to excise tax
05:44the company argues that these alternatives are less harmful than conventional cigarettes
05:50nicotine products have to be regulated because nicotine is addictive and so what is fundamental is that
05:56there is a regulation that allows them to commercialize these products for the adult fumers
06:01but also ensure that the adults have not access to these products and that these products are not
06:08applicable for this audience which is not the target audience of these products
06:13they are the adult fumers who use nicotine today to give them an alternative with a differentiated
06:19cigarette effect that they use today
06:22with flavors like mint red berries or mango these products raise concerns among public health experts
06:28who fear they may become more appealing to young people and non-smoking adults
06:34they have to be banned from any type of flavor because we know that the flavors increase
06:40a lot of absorption and enhance a lot of dependency and the reason why children and young people
06:47like to use these products without any doubt
06:52each pouch can contain nicotine levels equivalent to several traditional cigarettes although they do not
06:58contain tobacco the potential for addiction remains as do the health risks
07:03the effects in the brain are perhaps the most concerning
07:07especially because those who are going to use these products are especially the children and the adolescents
07:12and also the young adults
07:14the nicotine prejudices the development of the brain interferes with cognitive capabilities
07:20and causes changes in the behavior
07:23the government is preparing new rules advertising restrictions sales limits and a ban on flavor
07:29products and colorful packaging the intention is to regulate a booming market before it goes even further
07:40each year millions of tourists from around the world visit pompeii
07:44they admire its frescoes and archaeological ruins but few of them will ever noticed the solar panels
07:50installed on the roof of the ancient roman villa of the mysteries
07:53we see here one of the copies of the tables on the roof
07:58on the roof under which we are
08:00and from here it looks like an old table
08:04and from behind we see that it is actually a small photovoltaic panel
08:11and so it produces energy to illuminate this villa which is a large part of the energy
08:19that comes from the roof that comes from the roof installed here
08:24while pompeii is considering extending this solution to other areas of the archaeological park
08:30that are far from the electricity grid the city of evora in portugal has also adopted similar technologies
08:37avoiding the visual impact of conventional solar panels like this
08:42we have here these shingles installed on the rooftop of the city hall in evora
08:46but they are not normal shingles they are made of a semi-transparent epox material
08:51with solar cells embedded in the middle of it which generates electricity for the self-consumption of this building
08:58we have around this area around 20 kilowatt peak of uh pv shingles as we call them installed and they
09:06their objective is to blend into the landscape architecture of this building to protect the heritage
09:12area aspect of of of evora since 1986 evora's historic center has been listed as a unesco world heritage site
09:21pv shingles are among the solutions through which a european project is helping the city reconcile
09:27overview of the heritage preservation with the modern challenges of sustainability
09:31evora
09:32ön sport
09:34of the Human Humanity, and as a great majority of European cities have the obligation to preserve
09:46the historical center, to preserve the patrimony.
09:51However, it cannot be stopped at the time.
09:53We also have to advance in the sense of finding solutions that allow the historic cities
10:02to meet what we have to solve today, which is the problem of carbonization.
10:13Among the solutions developed to make this possible,
10:16is one created by a small family-owned company based in northeastern Italy.
10:21The cup is a composite of resin that is stored in the first strato.
10:25We take the photovoltaic cells that we have sold in the past and put them in.
10:31Next, we take another piece, which is a composite made with loads.
10:38The last step is to lower the stamp and finally remove the finished product,
10:44which is a composite of resin with the cells that we have seen before.
10:48Solutions like this one, and the different technologies adopted in Pompeii,
10:52send an encouraging message to the rest of the world.
10:57I think the lesson that Pompeii gives is that if it can work here, in this place,
11:02so delicate, so attentive, so fragile and large,
11:08it means that it can work anywhere.
11:10Glass roofs integrating photovoltaic panels and solar canopies installed in the courtyard of schools
11:16in the historic center are among the other solutions being tested in Evora.
11:20Together with Alkmaar in the Netherlands, the Portuguese city is assessing these innovations
11:26through the Positives project to evaluate their potential for replication across Europe.
11:33This is a great question.
11:34It will be an opportunity for the past and during the past,
