a major decision concerning U.S
military forces in afghanistan that's
our first topic today on CNN 10.
I'm Carl Azuz thank you for watching on
wednesday u.s president joe biden
announced that american combat troops
would leave afghanistan by september
11th of this year
that will be the 20th anniversary of the
september 11th terrorist attacks on the
u.s
which were carried out by a group that
was allowed to live and train in
afghanistan
that's why in 2001 the u.s led an
international alliance of countries to
knock afghanistan's former rulers out of
power
afghanistan's first democratically
elected leader took office in 2004
but instability remained and the
conflict in afghanistan became the
longest running war america has been
involved in
president biden says it's time to end it
and bring u.s troops home
and as of this january there were 2500
american service members in afghanistan
according to the defense department
and while the biden administration says
they'll be withdrawn by september
some u.s troops will remain in the
country to protect american interests
officials didn't say how many the
decision to remove the others
is both complicated and controversial
for one thing
the taliban afghanistan's former rulers
who harbored terrorists they're still a
powerful force in the country
the u.s intelligence community doesn't
think a peace deal is likely between the
taliban and the afghan government
and if american troops leave some
military officials are concerned that
the government will collapse
that could threaten security democracy
and women's rights in afghanistan
like former president barack obama and
former president donald trump
president biden promised to end american
involvement in afghanistan
in congress there's bipartisan support
for doing this
with advocates saying it would be a
historic achievement
there's also bipartisan opposition with
critics saying it'll result in an afghan
civil war
a member of the biden administration
who's been involved in the decision says
it's not based on conditions in
afghanistan
president biden reportedly thinks
conditions there could keep american
troops in the country
indefinitely analysts say he wants to
focus more on foreign policy concerning
china and russia

ten-second trivia what country's
national emblem
features four lions bangladesh tanzania
india or nigeria
india a nation of 1.3 billion people is
the answer
the last remaining population of asiatic
lions can be found
only in india though according to
national geographic
africa is where you'll find almost all
the other wild lions in the world
some people travel thousands of miles to
see lions tigers and elephants in their
native habitats
but for those who live near them the
animals can be a nuisance a threat to
livelihoods or a constant danger
we featured a report a couple years ago
that explored how elephants
in the african nation of botswana were
responsible for scores of human deaths
every year
in india a nation of extraordinary
diversity when it comes to wildlife
there's a conservationist who's working
to help people and animals live
safely side by side
people who live in cities tend to
romanticize
living alongside big animals like tigers
and elephants but the reality is very
very different
for these farmers life on the edge of
india's national parks
is a fight for survival you live in
constant fear of your crops being
destroyed your livestock being killed
and occasionally
even being injured due to confrontations
with wildlife
it is not an easy life on average one
person or more
is killed by a wild animal every day in
indiaaccording to the environment ministry
india is a high wildlife high conflict
countryone of the biggest challenges is the
fact that we have
less than five percent of land set aside
for wildlife and there are millions of
people who live
adjacent to our protected areas or
inside every time
your crops are destroyed you're pushed
further into poverty it becomes harder
for your family to survive that year
we absolutely have to figure out ways
that people and wildlife can coexist
conservation scientist chrissy karen has
spent 15 years studying
human wildlife conflict in india looking
for ways to
lessen the impact on rural communities
they shouted a tiger has attacked your
bull in the field come quickly
when we got here we cried in despair we
earned our living with those two bulls
while the government offers compensation
for losses like damage to this borewell
by elephants
karen says it remains out of reach for
many the
process to get compensation can be
bureaucratic
slow and frustrating which is why most
people don't
file for compensation today she started
the wild ceve program in 2015 to help
communities overcome those hurdles
farmers call a toll-free number and
karen says wild ceve staff respond
within 48 hours
assessing the damage and helping them
submit the documentation needed to make
a claim
we've submitted almost 18 000 claims
people have received almost eight
hundred thousand dollars in compensation
from the government
her work also helps protect animals from
those pushed to the limit
we've had families who've called us 50
60 times
and they rarely retaliate they retaliate
when a sense of frustration builds
and they don't get the help they need in
time finding new ways for people
and wildlife to co-exist has become more
urgent in the face of a global pandemic
last year karen and her team started
teaching communities
how to protect themselves from zoonotic
disease i think the pandemic is a deep
wake-up call for every human on the
planet
it shows that you can't endlessly tinker
with nature
we need to do more to save wildlife and
wild places
karen's passion for wildlife began at a
young age
i had the most amazing childhood my dad
is a tiger conservationist and biologist
so i had seen my first tiger in leopard
by the time i was two years old
she hopes to share that passion with the
next generation through her education
program
which she says has reached over 20 000
childrento me they are the stewards of the
environment
if we don't get them to understand the
value of this
we're going to lose the wildlife i have
two daughters
what i hope i can do is move the needle
a little bit
in how people and wildlife learn to
coexist i hope
to leave a better planet than i
inherited
for my father to my children
if you happen to live near a certain
pizza restaurant in houston texas
and you really would prefer a robot to
deliver your pizza
well one domino's may have exactly what
you're looking for
it's working with a robot company called
neuro to get the pies from the store
to your driveway there will be no
delivery person to actually knock on
your door
still customers can keep track of their
pizzas through text alerts and real-time
gps monitoring so
there'll be less suspense about where
exactly your order is
will this soon be part of the pizza
process in neighborhoods worldwide
some experts are concerned this may not
work in places with heavy or fast
traffic but it's another new way in
which companies are experimenting with
employing robots that go that last mile
in delivery
but is there a pepperoni dough some
might appreciate the extra anchovies
ability they never saw such a deliverer
before
but if the robot slower than a car the
idea might seem cheesy or half
baked you're not exactly comparing
pineapples to apples and it doesn't
leave
mushroom for error hey there is one way
