The footage was smuggled out of Tibet under extraordinary circumstances. The filmmakers were detained soon after sending their tapes out, and remain in detention today.

Repairing our ozone layerÂ
In 1987, delegates from around the world signed the Montreal Protocol designed to protect the ozone layer by phasing out the production of a number of substances believed to be responsible for ozone depletion. This recent video illustrates the results of the Protocol, which is considered to be one of the most successful international environmental agreements.

Background information
The Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer (a protocol to the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer) is an international treaty designed to protect the ozone layer by phasing out the production of numerous substances believed to be responsible for ozone depletion. The treaty was opened for signature on September 16, 1987, and entered into force on January 1, 1989, followed by a first meeting in Helsinki, May 1989. Since then, it has undergone seven revisions, in 1990 (London), 1991 (Nairobi), 1992 (Copenhagen), 1993 (Bangkok), 1995 (Vienna), 1997 (Montreal), and 1999 (Beijing). It is believed that if the international agreement is adhered to, the ozone layer is expected to recover by 2050. Due to its widespread adoption and implementation it has been hailed as an example of exceptional international co-operation, with Kofi Annan quoted as saying that "perhaps the single most successful international agreement to date has been the Montreal Protocol". It has been ratified by 196 states. (Wikipedia)

Orzechowski: Polish Author & Activist on the Hunt for Inspiration & Injustice

Our correspondents bring you the full story. Michal Orzechowski, a Polish journalist, writer and human rights activist for the NGO World Solidarity, has a penchant for finding interesting stories in unlikely places. The author of a book called "Free Tibet, Free China" Michal says that for the best stories, you need to be ready to step out of the comfort zone of your domestic back yard. In 2008, his human rights work took him to Georgia. The ex-Soviet country was then reeling from a shock Russian military invasion. [Michal Orzechowski, Author & Activist]: "I came to Georgia because of the war. When Russia attacked on the 8th of April 2008, it was the same day the Beijing Olympics started. And I was shocked by the Russian brutality. They destroyed private houses, they even stole toilets from bathrooms, and they were kidnapping people at night." A few years later, Michal met the Dalai Lama while the Tibetan leader-in-exile was on a state visit to Poland, and a new adventure was in the works. [Michal Orzechowski, Author & Activist]: "Just after coming from Georgia and making humanitarian help in Georgia and also making a report for the European Parliament, I met His Holiness Dalai Lama in the Polish ...

Chinese Regime Promises to Start Stricter Air Monitoring
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ me.lt Many of China's cities have been shrouded in dusty haze for a long time. Authorities have been criticized for not reporting the level of air pollution accurately. That's because most cities only measure large pollutants, instead of more harmful, smaller particles. This may soon change though, with authorities now planning to impose tougher standards nationwide. As major cities in China are being choked by smog, the Chinese regime says it will begin monitoring smaller air pollutants starting next year. Since 2008, authorities have been monitoring pollutants, known as fine particulate matter 2.5, or simply PM2.5, in eight pilot cities. But everywhere else in the country, only larger particles called PM 10 are being measured. This difference means the real amount of air pollution can be masked. On Tuesday, The China National Environmental Monitoring Center released its findings for the eight pilot cities. The data left out Beijing, but includes cities like Guangzhou and Shanghai. It found that in some cities, the level of PM2.5 exceeded safe levels nearly 50% of the time from 2008 to 2010. These heavily populated places also had hazy days from over two months to six months of the year. An environmental researcher, who asked to remain anonymous, says that level of pollution is bad news for the public. [Environmental Researcher]: "Some of PM2.5 particles may contain ...

Chinese Swimmer Wu Peng Eyeing "Final Olympics"
For more news visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Follow us on Facebook ☛ me.lt Chinese Olympic swimmer Wu Peng has long been a celebrity in China since he first appeared in the 2004 Games in Athens. But now he says his Olympic career will be coming to a close after next year's Games in London. On Monday, Chinese swimmer Wu Peng declared that next year's London Olympics will be his last time competing. 24-year-old Wu's first Olympics were the 2004 Athens Games, where he made the finals. He followed that performance with a joint 4th place in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Now Wu is intensifying his training schedule to prepare for London 2012, and he's eager to go out strong with a medal victory. [Wu Peng, Olympic Swimmer]: "The London Olympics might be the last time I participate in the Olympics Games. For the past two Olympics that I have participated in, I reached the finals. So I hope to improve on that in London and be amongst the medalists. So this is what I am aiming for." Wu's been training in Michigan for the past two years, and has also gone tit-for-tat with US Olympic champion Michael Phelps in competitions this year. Wu beat Phelps at the Michigan Grand Prix and the Charlotte Ultraswim competitions, then took third to Phelps's first at the World Swimming Championships held in Shanghai earlier this year. Wu says the friendly rivalry is going to continue into next summer's Games. [Wu Peng, Olympic Swimmer]: "I have to say he has a stronger ... From: NTDTV Views: 50 0 ratings Time: 02:07 More in Sports

Tibetan Self-Immolations "A Sign of Deep Desperation"
For more news and videos visit ☛ english.ntdtv.com Follow us on Twitter ☛ http Add us on Facebook ☛ me.lt Over the past few months a string of self-immolations in Tibetan regions of China have made headlines. Tibetan monks and nuns have set themselves on fire, protesting the Chinese regime's hard line policies. Commentators say these self-immolations emphasize genuine problems of religious suppression by the Chinese regime. Since March, nine Tibetan Buddhist monks and two nuns in Tibetan areas of Qinghai Province set themselves on fire in protest of the Chinese regime's occupation and policies in Tibet. On his recent trip to Japan, the Dalai Lama described it as "a sign of deep desperation." 2008 saw the largest unrest in Tibet since the 1959 Tibetan uprising. Since then, the Chinese regime has been taking increasingly hard-line policies to control the region. [Zhang Weiguo, Journalist]: "The Communist Party is taking the brainwashing techniques it used to use on the masses in China in the past, and using them on the Tibetan people and on Tibetan lamas. Their method is to hold [political] study classes for the lamas, even confining them to the temple, not allowing them to come into contact with society, or even more strict methods. Some who didn't comply with the local authorities were arrested. If this kind of high pressure continues, it will make the Tibetan people feel a kind of hopelessness they haven't felt before."
