social media, where a handle is fast, dw needs, i might need to have some kind of thanks so much for watching the w. the do these do for fun? via do gravitational waves squeeze out body? how do i the drums until the feet? and what's the perfect kill for approx side? find the on says yes, with dw signs on the picked up channels. the since the beginning of time, melting glaciers in the himalayas have been feeding countless rivers. they pour out

of the mountain range, running like veins throughout the south asian continent. one of the most powerful is the drama, tow truck, which travels thousands of kilometers before crossing bangladesh and flowing into the bay of bingo. here the river is known as the the gym. luna creates and floods many islands and its course. in ben gully, these ever shifting islands and bars are called chalk derived from choa. which means wondering the 3000000 people who live on the island called themselves child us. but we don't migrate. they say the islands do. we just have to wander along

from june to september during the month to the rivers. tides wash up fertile settlements that produces a bountiful harvest in the dry season. the floods provide both fish and joy to the child the but they also take knowing at the shore line of the old jobs flooding the islands, and causing pain. the like. no man's, the child has moved from flooded islands to newly emerging ones. but they are used to this. they know the river gives them fertile soil on which they can grow and to work again. a life of construction, destruction,

and reconstruction. the weakness dish. nothing over the last model. no. see what this thing is told you. oh dear, didn't you catch anything up so far? careful. careful about it. that's enough for lunch. the

soon as i happened to talking to 33 year old that i am sure to god isn't actually a fisherman, but a farmer. together with his wife aliya become he feeds his 6 person household. besides their 2 children, his younger brother and mother also live with the the raw him and his neighbors live on child early. but in the middle of the june, the monsoons began months ago, and the river is knowing away at the island. but the tidal waves that usually floods the jobs are not here this year, even in august the

me. but for us tell rose to be there is the cost and the blessing and here with a june and they all flows which i believe pur, uh, was actually everywhere. they were both schools, concrete building. and i mean, we had every day for 5 minutes before the civil readings and then from the east, the river started pushing and ripping everything away. i was glad to do it because the pride here a chuck could come up again and people could settle again about the use or the finder to the where our village of relief route is. now. the moon used to flow sort of big ships used to pass by wondering if i saw it myself as a child and the

child early, but has now been stable for 12 years. but it is the exception literally. but is one of a dozen jobs that make up the gum shot a union district. not all the islands in the district have reached such an age every few years, jemina washes away some of the jobs, only to later wash up new settlement elsewhere. the not far from the heem until recently lived. shoot some on the there only one or can be seen now because you're moving has reclaimed the large parts of his former home. jemina has taken over the shoot us, i'm on a farmer, lived here with his family for 8 years. everybody kept

over here was my home. i'm a piece of field was washed away with the property that kind of went about here was a house over there was a neighbor. there was another problem. anybody here was another friend of mine. 7 homes were here. the school that showed us a month son attends, must be demolished. the water is only a few meters away from its foundation. the rubble will be reused. building material is pressure. it's not clear where the school will be rebuilt. for now it remains closed. yeah my, my son went to the school, my property is gone and now we are losing the school to is the

see a problem the, the some in the building you see here we built 66 years ago. so we have to take it down and think of the one on the back end before the school was some or else. then we have to take it down due to erosion and rebuild it here. tens of times we have to move at the school by the name of the monsoon season, and erosion go hand in hand. you never know which island of the river will take next. noted board, perhaps the this job is only 4 years old. that doesn't make a particularly powerful impression, but farmers who don't have many fields often have no choice,

but to settle here. the fellow, your mother, i mean i could tune lives here. she is married and has 2 daughters. her husband, a c, or o dean khalifa is a farmer. unfortunately, some of his fields have flooded and he's no longer able to feed his family from field work alone. he also sells goods at the market, the killing of the game. we all have to live in a hot with the animals because we are afraid of thieves or robbers because the

river is so closely if there are often river pirates. here we are poor. we have a few animals. if the thieves and robbers take that away from us, how will we survive the new zillow and it is it just last time the water was up to here up to the waist. it was very difficult to live here and the name, but then we moved to a neighbor's house for a few days and the flood hit us there too. then we had to build a rack up high to keep the animals away from the water. often we also slept on a boat and there was no gas. the water taxi keams job relief, but is stable for the moment. the people here still feel safe from jemina and it's powerful times. but even they are not completely saved from the floods.

is the dominant them you don't want i'm that's mine. i agree with that myself. it's growing. well. it dropped out that is that the same, these arises brand new things to technical development and we can try new varieties . you're looking at just the phone and the daughter who just see it and they grow very well and can be used as high on the album when i was a child, you could only harvest as the feel like this. a and b gave up to 50 is what i'm, what i'm gonna be a problem at all. so which one did $830.00 the the job. and they came up from the 12 years ago. but well, people have become wise. so i'm getting ready. go to quite a whole god, because somebody planned trees immediately to and get this oil and the level one up you pull in. augusta got happy. definitely 7 though. and we can eventually sell the

trees later. is everybody does business in this foundation we built in 2011 ever from after that we had to wait until the settled our mission is why the mind when the water comes onto the property here, we have to bring extra soil here, like with the boat. and then we build a hill, and then we put the animals on this hill near that. can those have lucky and for cooking, you can see the dove, and of course it gets covered with water, finding police mazda, and then we build a high rock. and on top of this, again, a new stove, we tried to keep the wood dry, and on top of it we sits in cook. i often tell him that maybe we shouldn't move to the mainland, but he doesn't want to leave the char kind of. he loves the child more than anything the mainland does. that's the question for him. i'm glad that i tell her why didn't you get some money from your parents? why don't you get 500000 tucker to buy a plot of land today, but she contract? she dreams of a house on the mainland. we just don't have the money back on the whole night.

right to go to the flow that about him and his wife aliya are busy all day like her husband. she's educated, but here on the jobs, there is no opportunity for women to put their schooling to use a li, a supports her husband in his work and earns extra money as it seems through the neighbors by their clothes, from her instead of on the mainland, the because little harvesting takes place during the monsoons,

many showed us live off of fishing during the rainy season. but in recent years, the highly sought after catch has been dwindling. the . 8 the, there are many different kinds of fish and practiced showed us can even catch them with their bare hands. the look how big it is, the the

farmers no longer use the fish solely to feed their families. at the port of golden da sheet, they bring their fish to be auctioned off, supplementing their livelihood on whatever the event came to sometimes visit the market in golden sheets. nothing to me here. the 400. 6400. 60 anyone 7400. 750-151-5515 nobody. then he's gone for $500.00. the

so he brings the expensive fish home for supper. the he can still trust that his land is safe from the rising waters. but not far away. it's a different story. sure to some on has given up his land and the store in parts of his house and his relatives, the economics of it. yeah, all the individual pieces of a complete hon to go to band, if you was of another hunt. ios put them on top, lot of their how does the say go to the find out how i

can buy when we take down? no rebuild. uh huh. so it takes a lot of people to, they had to just logistically. it's a big effort that also costs money. what assume it is very tedious. was starting monitor the vehicle some of the buses, but we towers help each other. i mean that if i decide to take down my house today and tell the neighbors they come right away, i mean i want to have decided when, if i hear that another neighbor is relocating whether he tells me, oh no, it's on our guard. i go there and help take down the hunt. transported away and rebuilt it. it's, i think we'll pay it a new bank card launch hours. help each of the starting one minus it optimal desk. as the

shoes of mine and his family have to stay with relatives until they find a safe place for a new home. the river is rising, the as unstable as the childs are, the land and farm land on them are still surveyed and entered into the land register. all showed us keep their title deeds in case there flooded land reappears. perhaps this time should have some on we'll get lucky and

yamuna. we'll give him back the land. it took the this is what it looks like before the flood waters arrive. the green grass land is food for cattle but in order to cultivate the land, the grass has to disappear. usually the flood takes care of that. when it doesn't, the farmers have to destroy the grass with chemicals in order to be able to plant. the the cute is a particularly hardy crop, but it can only be grown in the rainy season. the, there's a reason it's called the golden thread of bangladesh. it drives even when flooded

for the jude water is a friend. it likes stagnant water, the more brackish the better after harvesting, the stalks must be left to soften in the water. so the threads can be called the, the remaining parts of the plant are used as building and burning material. the

material dude, that is about one year old the farmer's earned about $400.00 to $500.00 euro is from the significantly more than the $100.00 to $200.00 euro's they would otherwise earn from us. not with products like dude and rice. the cho does have adapted to the rhythm of the dry and during the season when it comes to electricity, they must also adapt to the rules of nature. solar panels are easy to use and the mobile. until a few years ago, expensive oil was the only source of energy for the child us today, children grow up with solar energy as the norm for 6 year old chic,

it's common place the that he was brother or only chicago even runs his laptop off the panels, the computer is connected to the internet through his mobile phone. when you are done here, could you please wait the patty field? okay, i have to go to a meeting or go away and when you, when you want to, i get my product graduated well from school event. the timing is his great fashioning. he didn't want to do anything else. let me put him in devices and i

want to work as a web designer from home who were doing the brother supports me to learn this profession. i'm going to get with to buy all this equipment. so this is supposed to be financially here. so you know, the visual video gosh, and what else that she knows here covers it out to them a little way this, i guess we've done one thing that we don't love economical image data go to honey. i don't have any training and web design. so i follow the work of professional web designers in the country, and then even the internationally known ones that you read the books, the fall of the applause g cheap, the most. i me the, the new absolves boardman life event. i think the young people on the job at the very small now that if i can get them together, i would like to start a company to provide services like this online, but it's always been on the

unusually late in early september. the title floods have finally come. normally the child as expects 3 title waves between june and the end of august. but this time, the rising water is come only wants. here to climate change is evident the within a few days, the flooded waters reach dangerous levels. as the river takes its toll, no one's thinking about the fertile settlement. it breaks. even though the floods will ensure to a mountable harvest for the child us in the coming dry season. the

water has been standing here in the field for 3 days. 7 days ago it started to rise . first, the river was swollen and then in the last 3 days the water ended from here. if the water just continues to rise folder rice will be lost on what it is a good. i figured it was the i don't know if i'm lucky enough to save this rice crop. it's growing so beautiful in the bottle. here at the finish of the me see find the water is close to l. ya. now my move when the children play here, i think they could fall into a hole. it's dangerous. i want to take a bath papa hyphen because you know, you just had a shower when

a good day. they loaded. well, that's how it is a life for you. in a few days ago we were working on this pos, everything was do dry. and now we're working in the water that sometimes the water comes up to a chest for overhead. sometimes there is even a current to you. will die come, grow. he seems relaxed about the flooding. aliyah is more concerned. the ground near their home is still dry, but if the water enters the yard every day, life will become much more difficult. as evidenced than this footage from the past quarter century,

the child us have had to develop extraordinary survival skills to adapt to the flood floods which the child us they are increasingly worse due only in part to nature. a bridge was built here 25 years ago. forcing the once 14 kilometer wide river and to a narrower channel, which i would say that until the bridge was built, the floods were not as dramatic as they are today. the, the, the,

this time there was only one tidal wave in the monsoon season. it left behind huge amounts of fertile soil that had to be till the dry season has long since begun. now, 5 months later, it's harvest time, the the but uh she, uh, jo mode. it goes to a to me uh they could, but uh she, uh, not to be long done. that the hard. no, but she let me go look, gone all monday had the bus to

come back from you is the last name was not lucky with his rice fields. the water destroyed the crop, but he was able to save his other fields the landscape, which until now was a disaster area. suddenly looks very different and now gives the impression one can live well here. it is a different world,

but distances that could be covered quickly by boat or water taxi in the monsoon season. now take much longer. the in the monsoon season, the water is overwhelming. now it is scarce, but farmers desperately need it to irrigate their fields. the

soil still what in some places and good for planting rice. rice can be grown all year, but must be harvested before the flints come the it's not just the rice that grows here. throughout the dry season, the child as are busy harvesting one field after another at ground

knots, mays, sweet potatoes, mustard, and corey, and are keep it out. he busy the number of bobby, that's literally what i'm gonna do. it actually sink. there is a river here. all these floods a like a blessing for us. i'm one of the because the more often to fly to comes, the better it is for our farm. and i want the more we can grow, substituted this book, the lucky mode. no, this is just you right? when the monsoons come well, so when it's all about this is l farmland that these fields only lie on plants at the 2 or 3 more don't over the just where they are flooded up on me, peggy, only during this time can we not talk today is the ticket, then when everything is a group, i wonder what it is. that's why i think we live in the river, but it doesn't seem like the key. i'm of the portuguese. i'm a glenda soil here has a big advantage. we don't necessarily always need the plants. sometimes you just

say send for the bar example here, the soil into the see how the peanuts a thriving problem is, but you can see how drive the soil is compatible in the business. and that the supervisor on the team's neighbor showed us i'm on, has been lucky that jeff port island has reappeared from the river. he owns a plot of land on it. the soil is nice and high and it seems to be protected from the erosion that cost him hudson fields during the last month soon. now he's building the foundations for his new home. here. it will need to be high enough to stay afloat during the next flood as well. that's why i'm taking the important box. now we're moving from the east and to the west and signed

style of, of the problems that we can actually make a good living from finding new tank. we're calling chat from him. but this erosion is the pro body body that will just say kind of model by example, this house that i have to rebuild here. it will cost me almost a $1000.00 view row. so all together, i could have saved this money, but i'm forced to spend it a little promo. that's the problem for us. the child really have to do it every 3 or 4 years. the river eats away my propagate body, and i cannot keep my savings at the bottom in terms of talking about the the even though there are no trees here yet to fortify the island. the new plot looks promising. the river is

a safe distance away. i should have some on plan to move ahead of time and all the neighbors are pitching in the the things are looking good for showed us a mom at the moment. no one knows when juno will get hungry again and start knowing on the shore line. the most of the told us are developed muslims praying 5 times a day, however, is something very few do. but no farmer wants to miss the spiritual

chancing at harvest time in late february the anybody to school as the teacher. what did he say? he said, i should study hard. i invited him to our house to did you see the house? i think so, but check because of the google drive by playing the road. that's right. and what's that that to you alone? you look see these rough to you? yeah. do you know what that's made? ok, well, banana tree, right? whatever. and what did they put on this roster?

the how is it that she and that will do and to look at the go that's the boy. is this the see how sketchy is she's afraid of falling into the water even if i knew it would like this, but i'm not afraid of the water. the chart, nude ford has also survived the monsoon. but now there's a lot to do in the fields. i mean, those husband associated with dean can take care of their younger daughter. she doesn't have to travel far to work. this means i mean, i can take care of the older daughter schooling and have more time for housework. the stuff with my father was a capital trader, as

a child who used to take me with him and i watched him alone and how the business wants to have. i didn't finish school, so i have to and my money is a salesman. i managed a little bit until the 7th grade and then my parents married me off so i couldn't get in, you know, if a lot of people that are so the we are poor child on the with the know do the girls get married off quite early but at the end, when you're married, you can't go to the 1st because then you have to work at home, but i to i would have had a good chance to finish school. like i said, my parents made an effort, but i blow i to the room. so probably one of the, or the say it's like you are blind even though your eyes are healthy. the people

who have education or they can see properly, they can understand everything and do a lot of things with their lives. everything is much easier for the one does that, and those who have no education at all, they are like blind people with healthy eyes. that's how it is. there are even people who can't write their own name or the pipe i can home educate my children up to great stuff. i remember my mother just because of a i don't think another bundle. no, no, no, no, no, that's enough. one more, wait until next time. here i want to take one more step. so know i want another one. you wouldn't make it. i well, the, the dry season has brought a good harvest and some security. the rice stocks are

a precious commodity because they feed the most important thing of all the animals . they have to be stored up site so that the floods won't reach them. papa, look, look what i have here. my goodness, so much. where do i put it? bring it here please. for 6 year old chic life on the child is still an adventure. he doesn't know what's in store for the family. the monsoon season with it, a time of uncertainty will begin again the even though the family knows how to deal with the rhythm of nature, there is no secure foundation for an easy like a li, a knows that the

move you have to cross the river here every time to bring in the harvest, that's going to be hot again. the guests that you did you grow cups that last you know, even further away and that was very exhausting. yeah. we're down to now. we want to keep up, and while i don't know yet how to make it to see it, are you coming home? is that no, i don't want to. why not do what i mean? okay. did you foster volk? why didn't you get some of the, the, the of them we've gotta pay more lower. you know, the women who work in the fields carry a huge stacks of pain on the, when the used to it. so what i've never done that was up in the diamond fiber. why shouldn't you you can try it. sometimes they look at a called a home. no, i don't want to. i'm supposed to do everything myself or what,

who else? i can learn. what do i go to? i was hoping that's at some point we would live on the main them so that the children could go to school. you could do, you have assets there on the mainland, a nice. i look for your thought of, well, you don't want to give up your fields here. you also couldn't have job in the city just to plow on the charles all the time. but that's not enough for a lot today. no for that. we'll see. one way i can, i guess, i guess you want me to toilet line in town and send you money so you can have a good life sort of then keep digging into sam's. you don't need a job, but i tell that to your sons, they should make money on the mainland and due to life the. i'll stay here on the job. many child us think like that here. they may never give up this land, but to constance, remain the child shifting nature and the child us desire for security. the

a house that works like a spot in the facade, stores green water, and then use it in a variety of ways. how does it work? and how can this technology be used in cities hit by climate change? stuttgart has a prototype tomorrow today on dw the,

she's got issues with a lot say, well crazy. the way the new. we'll be happy that way of boxing. of course, the story. we have a, getting a visa is more difficult than finding gold hosted to use force and for the future feelings about what's going on in the industry. instead of being discussed across the continent, dw, and use africa every friday on the w. the,

this is the w news live from the the us vito's, the un security council resolution calling for an immediate cease fire, and garza washington says the metro would jeopardize assets to broker a hostage steel. meanwhile, the wedding says it is pausing food in the race deposits dogs. that's due to the slicing. also coming up on the program. yeah, but issues clump lugging that points and i'll explain of all these mazda of hills, direct me to rush as president to release her son's body. as the kremlin dismisses allegations, it's a lot of that person killed his fist as chris it.
