In the last century, natural disasters caused the death of 37 million people. Nature , which is extremely angry with engineering and scientific studies, has literally targeted people. It is necessary to be successful and Bayer must protect the capital. Water floods that have been going on for thousands of years are dozens of floods that occur every year in the Pacific . It is necessary to build safe structures to protect against earthquakes, not only earthquakes occur all over the city, dangers
coming from outside the world can destroy the entire civilization. Developing technology should not be viewed as an example of irresponsibility, humanity is under the threat of natural disasters, but perhaps the future can be built with engineering solutions if there is no water. There is no life on Earth , but water that gets out of control can be lethal. As a result, Hurricane Katrina also caused great suffering. New Orleans is among hundreds of coastal cities. The water level has risen more t
han 30 cm since the last century, and one third of the world's population, that is, 2.4 billion people, lives on a coastline of approximately 100 kilometers. 7.5 million buildings in London are under threat from an extremely powerful river affected by the Tide. Engineering miracles [Music] have been created for decades to protect from the Times River. Since 1985, London has been protected from the Times River with a barrier worth millions of Pounds. All of this is a disaster. Millions of liters
of water, rising with the tide and moving up the river, were threatening London. I don't think they fully understood the power of the River Times, its current and how strong it is. The current is so strong that it can suck you in and take you for miles. His biggest hobby is climbing, to the professional level. She carried it and is currently working in the maintenance team of the barrier and she is the first woman to climb the Aydın Northern section. I don't know why I did this, but the rope is
very strong. I usually climb from the top down. If she had not received mountaineering training, it would be impossible for her to work in such a place. Everything aside, Times Aiden may rise and draw you in. I had a frightening moment. It was built down the river by calculating the power of one ton of water required. It is really comforting to know that the work done will protect London from a huge disaster. [Applause] On January 13, 1953, great damage occurred in many countries in Europe. As a
result of the disaster, 1953 The rise in water experienced in 2018 is an event that has never been seen before in England. Since that day, the construction of the barrier in the Times River has started. Among the countries affected by the tide in the North Sea, 16 K collapsed in England and 307 people died in England alone. lost as the water rose, Central London was flooded. London had to find a definitive solution to prevent the city from being flooded. This is the first time something like th
is has been built. This is not only a difficult project, but also a definitive solution that cuts off the edges, although the barrier is sufficient Even if the rise in water level with changing climate conditions may cause another disaster, is the barrier really capable of withstanding the rise and flow and protecting the capital of England ? People in many parts of the world suffer great damage from flood disasters. It was decided to control the water by building a protective barrier in London,
which was greatly damaged by the water spreading over an area of 100 square meters in 1953, under the threat of Times Barrier . The weight of the gigantic Steel covers located between is more than 3,000 tons [Music] In normal times, these covers go down to the river bed, but in emergency cases they close within 15A. These covers are checked regularly, the slightest crack is repaired by Experts like Ser. This is a big job and the Times River is also an important one. formation always needs to
be careful It is difficult to walk on slippery covers. Therefore, physical performance is extremely important . Cover works must be cleared of rust and other negativities. The outer surfaces of the covers are made of 4 cm thick steel. The hydraulic system, which is located on a huge reinforced concrete platform and allows the covers to close, needs to be constantly checked. Otherwise, the result will be a disaster. I would like to say that I am always excited to be in such a difficult task, beca
use anything can happen at any time. The barrier must protect the capital. For the first 6 years, the barrier was closed for almost half of the year. In 1990 , this doubled and in 2003 The tide and the strong current do not originate from the Times River. This situation originates from the center of the Atlantic ocean, thousands of kilometers away. The anger of nature causes terrible storms to occur right in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. With the storm, the coastal part of the North Sea is c
overed with pitch black clouds. Low pressure is formed. Just like vacuum cleaning, the water in an area of 1500 kilometers is sucked in. Then the pressure drops significantly. It starts to advance rapidly, just like the drop of mercury. Since the size of the swell was known, great precautions were taken. Because this was inevitable, if the swell remained only in the Atlantic, it would be harmless, but it would reach the countries on the coasts of the North Sea. It is moving towards the norther
n coast with great power. At the same time, the Wind is also very important. The Northern Winds are causing the tide to become even stronger and to experience dramatic experiments with us. The strong wind blowing from the north is moving towards all the Northern coasts, and it is also affecting the English Channel and the entrance of the Times River. [ Music] Since the entrance is narrow and the bottom is shallow compared to the sea, the waters rise rapidly and affect the land. According to the
worst-case scenario, as a result of Mezi and strong currents, an area of approximately 128,000 acres, that is, many important cities of Europe, may be flooded. Meanwhile, the Tower of London parliament building and many other buildings. The old building and the Metro network will be flooded. This will be a great destruction for England. It was planned for the Times River to withstand very strong currents and protect the capital for at least 1000 years. [Music] The team takes action with a wa
rning received. Okay, understood. Early warning system established on the beach. Medcezir within 12 hours. As a result, the swell of the water informs us that the powerful hydraulic system starts to work and builds a solid wall made of metal with a 90-degree turn. If it were not for these covers, London would be flooded. The team continues its work regularly and with great seriousness every day. Because it is aware of its responsibility. Meanwhile, everyone's adrenaline level is at its last. Bec
ause the lives of millions of people living in the area that needs to be protected are at stake [Music] This is a closure test, but soon the deadly tide currents that have been going on for thousands of years will begin to push the barrier [Music] Natural disasters can cause great disaster for people living in cities Three quarters of the world is surrounded by mountains 0% of the population Lives in crowded cities just like Tokyo [Music] 12 million people House worth 3.3 million dollars All thi
s is happening in the middle of deadly weather conditions fed by the warm waters of the pacific Wind at 300 K during a typhoon 8 million L it is raining, rising due to global warming. Due to the ocean temperature, some experts think that there will be bigger typhoons, many of them will affect Tokyo . The s disaster in the last October was very bad every year. Typhoon Season causes chaos every year. The transportation network is completely collapsed. The whole city is at risk. Journalist Yusuke N
akano He says that there was a huge storm in 2005. Everywhere was flooded. I also photographed this disaster in the water. As the slides overflowed due to the flood, the rain mixed with the slide water and the vehicles were dragged left and right. Of course people, some were trapped in their homes. No one could escape. It was a terrible sight . The strongest storms on earth are fed by the Pacific ocean. The Atlantic. Storms are stronger and more in number. Typhoons are formed. Typhoons have caus
ed the deaths of 600 people in the last 10 years . [Music] For the people of Tokyo, Typhoons are a vital reality. I grew up watching Tokyo flood under unstoppable and inescapable waters and houses drifting here and there I grew up in a house by the river the authorities constantly warn us of danger and teach us what to do in emergencies nobita and his son save their lives I heard about underground engineering that surprised Memi so much Because I love my city, it is very important that such thin
gs are carried out by scientists and experts. They are going to the Edava River project. It may not look remarkable from the outside, but from the entrance located outside the city, it is Tokyo's most interesting Engineering initiative. [Music] It is about deadly typhoons [Music] Music] is in good health [Applause] It was completed in 2006, it cost 2 billion dollars and became the center of attention of tourists, meanwhile the city also has the possibility of salvation, it will protect Tokyo aga
inst the violence of the typhoon with the River system spreading under the city [Music] [Applause] It's almost there, yes, the magic [Music ] ] nice, beautiful house Yes, I liked it until you look at it. The center of the system is 50 meters below the ground. When there is a typhoon, this area will become a huge basin. It has the capacity to hold 345 million tons of water with the channels connected to here, and this amount can fill 138 Olympic pools, but I didn't know what I would encounter whe
n I was going down. [ Music ] one of the incredible mod engineers [Music] I was in the first drawing phase of this project and I am proud to be involved in such a project. This project is extremely important for the protection of the city and the environment. Japan has controlled flood waters throughout its history , and this is It has a capacity of 1.3 million tons. It is the last example of such a deadly tafan Kor heni main reservoir is connected to the Eastern residential area of Tokyo. Fro
m this point, the main center opens into 6 kilometers of tunnels 50 meters below the surface [Music] tunnels 4 River-shaped to the huge Nak gava basin located in the northeast of Tokyo [ Music] connected [Music] it took more than 10 years to build this place, it is not an easy task to build such a large formation even during typhoon seasons [Music] the diameter of the tunnels is more than 10 meters, there is a connection between the huge wells on the edges of the city and the sewage system with
a depth of more than 70 meters The huge wells have the capacity to even sustain heavy rainfall when necessary. [Applause] Millions of liters of rain fall on Tokyo during the typhoon. In the past, the rivers on the outskirts of the city swelled and overflowed from their beds . There have been very bad floods in the past. Since the ground is flat here, water spreads to the environment at a great speed. In the last 50 years, it has been very serious. concrete and asphalt construction took place. An
d for this reason, it is not possible for the non-soil ground to absorb water. I think we have found a definitive solution to the sewage problem. Tadashi believes that the magnificent sewer and tunnel system they created with their calculations is a definitive solution for Pacific typhoons that form in the Pacific and reach Tokyo. The advancing Typhoon primarily affects the rivers in the city. However, now new solutions have been produced in engineering and with the Edogawa River project, the na
tural sewer system discharges excess water. The water that quickly fills the sewer passages goes directly to the tunnels [Music] When the tunnels are filled, the water starts to rise in the huge area. This main section, which is 180 meters long, is 400 million The main section, which has a capacity to hold liters of water, is like a huge water tank. The water filling here can be kept under control and when the main center is full, a 14,000 horsepower 4 engine is activated from the control room.
The pump is operated. This is the most important [Music] part of the network system in operation. All movements in the system are controlled from here and in case of a critical situation, immediate intervention is made. The length of the tunnels between the main reservoir and the River is 6.5 km. It pumps 200 tons of water per second from the main center [Applause ] the pumping water reaches the Edava, Tokyo's largest river, through the last tunnel. The Edava River has the capacity to carry this
water to the river safely [Music] Since 2002, these pumps have worked 30 times, protecting Tokyo and its people [Music] from the next typhoon. No one knows when it will happen, there is a great benefit in building such places as it is not known whether they will survive the next typhoon, it does not matter how much money it costs, what is important is to save people's lives . My job is to make news and unfortunately it is always about natural disasters and the people who suffer because of them.
I have to make the news. I am very happy to be protected from typhoons and floods . However, it is not only oceans and rivers that threaten our world. The extraordinary power within the earth's crust is often capable of destroying us. We cannot prevent or stop it, but we can learn to live with it and be protected . It is at a magnitude of five every year all over the world. There are around 1500 or stronger earthquakes. There are fault lines near more than 380 major cities. Mexico City is one o
f them . If you want to go somewhere quickly in such a large metropolis, you have no other option . The Tor Express Route, the longest structure in Latin America, is a helicopter door with glass on the outside, concrete and low-rise tower, source of pride [Music] for 18 million people , Tor is like a part of me, Tor is a project that involves me with all my being, it has gone through a tectonic phase, it is one of the most active parts of the building , people were responsible for the daily mana
gement of the building before, a building of this length. They said it was crazy to do this . Even though there are earthquakes stronger than 14 Richter scale every day in Mexico, this solid building was not damaged in the slightest. A building of this size is designed to withstand all earthquakes. It is strong enough to withstand even an earthquake greater than magnitude six. The 3,000 people working here should be safe. Also, it would be a terrible thing for tons of concrete and glass to colla
pse. It is the greatest indicator of human capacity and the struggle with nature. The state of the region was the biggest [Music] problem. Mexico City was built on soft, moist and loose ground, and the foundations of this building are on the loosest ground in the world [Music] ] Considering the weight of the abandoned building, an extremely deep foundation was created to avoid damage from the soft ground. To reach the rocky ground, engineers envisaged digging more than 40 meters. The world suffe
rs from earthquakes of magnitude 8 every year. The great earthquake in 1985 hit the capital of Mexico He was living in Mexico City during the big earthquake in 1985. It was a terrible event. Because the death toll was very high. When I went out to the street, I saw people running away. This terrible event really hurt people very deeply. The epicenter of the earthquake was 300 km away. Dalan was affected very much. Almost all the houses were destroyed. suffered from this destruction a very large
earthquake no one can imagine such intensity it happened so fast that the window cracked and broke at the same time The magnitude of the earthquake was 8.1 on the Richter scale More than 9000 people died when they went out to the street how many houses were destroyed and the city center was completely destroyed [ [Music] I saw people taking to the streets . They were trying to save the still living people by lifting the rubble one by one with their hands. Exactly 100,000 people became homeless.
The cost of this disaster was more than 100 billion dollars [Applause] . [Music] running away It was very difficult from an engineering perspective to build a quarter billion dollar Tor May skyscraper in a city devastated by earthquakes 200,000 tons of steel is more than 3 times the amount used in the eel Tower This tower, which was completely undamaged in the earthquake, is a unique piece of engineering It is a unique piece of engineering 16,000 MK used in the skyscraper The tile-shaped support
s placed behind the glass These supports, which act as shock absorbers to further strengthen the building, which is already extremely solid, were put in place to make the building stronger in the face of any shock. [ Music] This system is just like the shock absorber system in cars, but it has a different unit than the shock absorbers in the car and consists of a power connection pipe. This system is connected to the foundation of the building. It activates when it senses seismic waves and reduc
es the power of the earthquake. Liquid silicone, which helps the pistons in the shock absorber system to work, reduces the thrust force . This system, which is made to resist the power of the earthquake, works successfully. While the earthquake affects other parts, the tower is only flexible. I think Tor Mayor is important. Nowadays, everyone wants to build a safe and special building like him. Tony May successfully passed a very important test because in 2003, there was an earthquake of magnitu
de 7.6. An earthquake of magnitude 7 is not taken lightly anywhere in the world. But especially in a place like Mexico, my office was on the 32nd floor and When I was there, things were moving during the earthquake. However, when it comes to this point , nothing is felt, because thanks to the shock absorber system, the shaking cannot reach here. As a result, nothing is felt from the point where I am right now, so I am definitely very lucky. The team constantly checks the building. The engine roo
ms, all the pipes and everything are under control. Binay Kek s I prefer Toru to any part of the city during the earthquake. However, the earthquake in 1985 had a magnitude of 8.1. It can face a much greater intensity and undergo a much greater test [Applause] Anything can be done to adapt to the environment, but some forces can never be prevented, the power of nature . It is impossible to block it and it will definitely continue [Music] It is a brutal force. But there are also more brutal force
s. It is about 500 million kilometers away from the earth, but it gets closer every day. There are asteroids in the depths of space. The first line of defense has been established at the Lemon Mountain observation section in Arizona. Steve Larson, a scientist and a hunter of objects approaching the Earth, is constantly making observations . We are here trying to measure the magnitude of the danger. Exactly what kind of danger it is is unknown. We are trying to find out. This is not science ficti
on. Studies are being carried out to determine the external effects that may threaten the life of the world. Many people are hitting the Earth from space every day. Small meteorites also burn to ashes in the atmosphere [Music] but large objects are trying to divide the earth into two. What will happen to this? We have no defense yet [Music] There are craters on the earth's crust caused by asteroid impacts. The number of such large craters in the whole world is 160. The collision that took place
65 million years ago As a result, Evolutionary conditions have changed. An asteroid fell 10 km from the top of the Mexican Peninsula, blocking the sun . The asteroid descended rapidly through the atmosphere, destroying the dinosaurs. [Music] With other effects, it destroyed 0% of the living species on earth . Now, another disaster has caused many things resulting from the technology in question . It should be seen as irresponsible because I don't know what we would do if these objects collide. S
ince the American Congress takes asteroids seriously, a monitor network was established to monitor the sky. The 1.5 meter long telescope used by the team at Lemon Mountain is 2 million times more powerful than the human eye. Therefore, it is visible to the Earth. Objects that are approaching or approaching are noticed immediately, many of them approach for kilometers and these are Even though the extremely powerful approaching object is small, each of them has the power of an atomic bomb, the po
wer sources we have are a complete dwarf compared to them. This fear became reality. Because the team stabbed the earth with an approaching object [Music] An observation made in June 2004 shocked the world. An object was seen beyond 500 million K and approaching. This object with a diameter of 300 meters can destroy an area of 60 km, it was called apophis. The Egyptians' name of Darkness and faket god is bilil attacks kar saun geli Uz don jeans project European Space Research and Technology Ce
nter in the Netherlands This is a Center planned to be protected from the apocalypse . The engineers and scientists here will approach a new world with great difficulty in 2029, but the research of the unmanned rocket prepared to protect our world will end in 2011. [Music] This rocket, which moves at a speed of 50 million kilometers per day, will reach the asteroid within 6 months. It is planned to orbit the asteroid . When we finish all our calculations, we will determine the exact position of
the asteroid. Another rocket will be launched after 20 months to obtain vital information and determine the orbit exactly. This spaceship, which has the attack power, will go after the asteroid at a speed of 35,000 km per hour and while traveling rapidly behind the asteroid in the void of space. This Warrior will drop bombs with a diameter of 300 meters to the center of the asteroid . This Warrior is the size of a washing machine, but when it reaches the very center of the asteroid, it will push
it 1 clay away from the earth. The Warrior needs to be very strong. This is a very important mission. Because this is the first time such a thing is being tried, something is constantly coming from the atmosphere, with the knowledge of what will happen. It is also very important when it will happen together. Those who watch the objects approaching the Earth are very lonely while watching the boring space in front of them. Selfless work is being done to protect the world and the human race from
natural disasters . They are being extremely careful in this regard. Because humanity shares the same fate with the dinosaurs [Music] [Applause] [Music] not wanted
