we've seen videos in images on the internet with this writing on them, this spot on earth is a real haven. lush green forests, beaches

with white sands, the water in the sea that's so pure, it looks like glass and a unique wildlife, mean somewhere like borneo in southeast asia, an island that's divided between three countries, indonesia, malaysia, and the tiny state of brunei. the borneo of for live nature museum, it's one of the oldest rain forests on the planet, that's the habitat of over 15 flora species, 420 bird species and 222 mammals. you cannot see these living beings anywhere else in the world. all of these have turned borneo into a real heaven ditarik. meinang dengan pantunnya,

meinang dengan pantunnya, but the heaven is not far away from hell, from 1985 to 2005, every year 850 hectares of borneo forest have been ruined, only from august october 2019, over 8,578 square kilometers. of forests in borneo were destroyed in rare fire incident, the fire and the smoke bellowing in the air was so wide spread that the pollution reached 1100 km away to indonesia's capital jakarta as well as kualalompur and singapore and dark in the sky. for three months, locals lived under a blanket of toxic sulfurous smog. in

three months, over 600 million tons of carbon dioxide was emitted to the atmosphere. it was more than the carbon dioxide australia produces in a year. it was 13 times more than the co2 admitted from the automobiles all over the world in a year. the incident got environmental. activists worried, but in indonesia almost no one cared. nearly 10 million children are at risk from air pollution from indonesia's forest fires, that's according to the united nations. unicef is warning the children could suffer lifelong physical and cognitive damage. right a time when people in southeast asia were choking to death and the animals were perishing in drug. indonesian president joko

widodo issued new decree that gave people the thumbs up to ruin even more forests and establish palm farms instead of the old. trees palm oil, a multi billion dollar industry with a pretty bad reputation, it's been blamed among other things for wiping out rain forests, pushing animals such as the arangatan towards extinction. the farms were the main factor for the survival of the 255 strong population of indonesia and of course the main factor for their death, i only own one hectare of land on which i harvest about 400 to f itu kalau buahnya kalau buahnya trek i need about a day to feed my family and for my children to go to school, if the quality the fruit is poor, i barely make 6 euros which isn't enough, ada di warung simpang,

i'm constantly in debt, kiosk owner has lowned me money, i own everybody money and i can't afford cigarettes, we can only buy what we absolutely need to live, when you go to a whopping mall for your daily shopping, when you're sitting in a restaurant, eat dinner, when you wash your hair with shampoo in the bathroom, when you're biting off a piece of chocolate, when you're using cosmetics and in many other things you do during the day, you're in fact using palm oil, almost 80 kg for each person

annually. now if we know that 85% of the palm oil in the world comes from indonesia and malaysia, we can ask: few important questions: who's burning the forest, who's polluting the air? are the poor farmers in borneo behind the increased levels of co2 in the air, or is it the people who buy and use palm oil every day more than before? during the past 20 years, malaysia's palm oil exports have increased 1500 times and the turnover now stands at over 21 billion. dollars. the country is top producer of palm oil in the world. the world's neverending demand for palm oil has made the people in indonesia to break the boundaries. instead of planting rice and vegetables, despite the

hardships and enjoying the beauties of the nature in the country, they've opted for industrial farming of palm trees with a shorter life, but with more amenities. we're. talking about $400 of monthly income for a 2 hectare farm with about 400 palm trees. the income isn't considered meger in southeast asia, it can tempt anyone. in many other regions too, rainforest is being burnt down. 2.6 million hectares have been destroyed, a region almost the size of belgium. palm oil companies are responsible for about half the fires laid.

"the deliberate destruction of the forests in borneo has taken a huge toll on the environment, but maybe the most important of all was the destruction of the rangatang's habitat. during the past four decades, the population of arangatans in this region has been reduced to half. the animal is on the list of the endangered species now, hence in 2009, a group of..." environmental activists put on arangatang uniforms and held a protest rally outside the headquarters of one of the largest oil palm consumers in the world, namely nestley. it might seem to be an odd comparison, but these days if you bite off a

piece of yummy chocolate and you're carefre, you're in fact accomplice in killing in arangatang. according to the protesters, large industrial firms that don't care about the damage are to blame for the environmental pollution caused by palm oil. the only thing they care about is increase in their income. every year 8 million people in the world die due to smoking, annually about 770,00 people in the... world die from aids and annually over 435,000 people lose their lives for

being infected with malaria. large media in the world are quick to spread the news and put the fatalities of those causes in the limelight. when someone dies in a car accident, it's something you can see with your own eyes, but there aren't many people who are aware of the annual death tool of 9 million people in the world due to air pollution, that is one out of... every nin deaths in the world due to air pollution, as death is invisible, it's hard to trace, the death rate due to air pollution is larger than fatalities from aids, diabetes and car accidents combined. 95% of people all over the world breathe polluted air every day. things are far worse in developing countries, chill... lifespan in southeast asia is 30 months and in the southeast of the sahara

desert 24 months less. in europe, polluted air takes the lives of people 15 times more than road accidents. it has reduced life expectancy in britain by one and a half years. perhaps the invisible crisis served as incentive for us journalist beth gardner to... publish a damning book on this subject. gardner lives in london along with her british husband and young daughter. she's carried out extensive research on air pollution. she's traveled to different parts the world to find out the source of air pollution and why people lose their lives to it. the outcome of her trips and research is her book choked, which highlights shocking facts. i've lived in london for more than 18

years. i came here from new york, but as much as i've always loved britain, there was something that bothered me from the start, a thickness to the air, the smell of exhaust that hit me every time i walked outside. it was only years later when i was working on an article about airquality at the 2012 olympics, that i sat down to read some of the science of what air pollution does. to our bodies and how much of it there is here in london. it only took a few minutes of googling for me to see that the fumes i dismissed as nuisance were actually toxic. in one of the points, she's mentioned the controversial decision by the european union to use cars run on diesel fuels in the 90s. the decision was made based on the argument it would reduce co2 emission and was a plus for. the environment, but what happened was actually the polar opposite: millions of

people were exposed to higher degrees of nitrogen dioxide, which is way more dangerous than carbon dioxide. such decisions are not unprecedented throughout history. in 1921, american chemist thomas midley concluded that if he added lead to gasoline, he could... prevent knocking in internal combustion engines, so until the 70s, lead was used as an additive to gasoline almost all over the world, but suddenly it was revealed lead was very harmful for our health. it wasn't the first disaster left by midgely. he was a person who discovered chlorofluorocarbons combinations for the first time, and in 1941 the american chemical society gave midley its highest award the priestly medal. later on,

it was revealed that cfcs have ozone depleting effects and midgely was named the most harmful scientist in history. in another part, gardner mentions the volkswagen scandal known as diesel gate. in 2008, north american and european countries decided to use solution called add blue to reduce air. add blue is made up of 32 and a/2% pure orea and 62 and a/2% deionized water and is widely used in euro 5 and euro. six automobiles. the solution is added to the catalyst section of diesel run cars and reduces the poisonous gases of nitrogen oxides to a large extent. it is used in many engines and large volumes

including in audis, mercedes and bmw products. but in 2000. and 8 volkswagen announced that the company's 2000 cc engines do not need add blue. after a while americans found out they had been badly deceived. volkswagen had used some software with complicated algorithm to bypass the emission standard tests to show lower amounts of pollution. volkswagen ceo martin wintercorn resigned after the scandal and five 100 thous cars produced by volkswagen were recalled from across the world. furthermore, volkswagen had to pay up to $22 million as a fine, but the fine went to the pockets of the governments. actually, it didn't make out for the disaster, it had reaked on the environment and human beings. according to us

officials, the cars caused. pollution over 40 times more than normal cars, waging war on pollution, this is a younger generation's fight back following the recent revelations that the air we breathe is dirty and dangerous, so we wanted to make it quite anarchic uh, a little bit dangerous, revolution, sort of that kind of attitude. basalisa's group clean air now started this anti-pollution billboard campaign to try and engage a younger audience uh, we'd really like to see more people become aware of the problems of air pollution and in that way start to reach out to the government and then for them to take more action. what's their pollution might bring to mind beijing or delhi, in europe, france, germany, spain, italy and britain have all been found to be breaching air pollution limits. we're using

this monitor, you can see the level of dust particles in the air and it's changing. all the time and actually often spiking to get to level that over sustained period would be considered unsafe. now areas like this have proven so bad for the air quality that the eu has issued the uk with final warning and told britain to clean up or face the consequences. there have been numerous similar scandals in recent years. gardner is highlighted one of them that has to do with bour. johnson, former uk prime minister and london mayor. according to the research, when johnson was the mayor of london, he had gotten dust particle suppress and sprayed around air quality monitors to bring down their readings. these deceptive methods are for

advanced countries. an impoverished name. things are different, for a long time we didn't have a choice about relying on fossil fuels, but we don't need them anymore, it's time to move towards something better, sort a future built on clean energy, from the wind and the sun, electric cars, instead of diesel and petrol, less driving, more walking and cycling. it won't be easy to end the era of fossil fuels, they're woven into the fabric of our societies, and there is lot of money and lot of power invested in keeping us dependent on them. in 1952, seven years after world war ii, countries were seeking to accelerate their production, factories

working at full blast every day. millions of tons of charcoal were burnt in the world to help the factories keep producing. london was in ruins due to the second world war. those days it was still the biggest city in the world with a population of 8 million people. almost all of the population and the factories around london use charcoil to supply energy. december 5th, 19. 52 went down in history forever. time is 8 o'clock on the 6th of december and here is the news. london has been brought to a halt by dense fog which has descended overnight. long cubes are formed on main roads and there are reports of motorists abandoning their vehicles and continuing on foot. london airport is expected to be closed. good. the

meteorological office has issued a statement saying that a persistent anti-cyclone over london is to blame. smoke from the capital's chimnes is being trapped at street level, which is aggravating the fog. wind this condition. mean it is expected to last for some time, be careful out there, it's a real p super. the cold weather coupled with the smoke coming out of factories and homes buried london under a thick layer of smog. the smog was unp. precedented in history, it affected all aspects of life. for the first time, people faced a phenomenon called inversion. in just four days, the sulpuric

steam claimed 4,000 lives. the figure later rose to 12,000 people. about 100 thousand people were in. with various diseases, officials throughout the united kingdom introduced a strange strategy to eradicate the mysterious disease. soon, everyone was talking about offshoring pollution.

perhaps the united states founding fathers could never imagine that the country whose declaration they sealed in 1776 would have a long history. of atrocities at home and abroad, from the korean peninsula, to vietnam and onwards to iraq, afghanistan, iran and beyond, wherever there's been a conflict or strife, the us was involved. the us is addicted to war as the war machine feeds its economy. but watch in this documentary how the rules of the game have changed as us no longer has the upper hand and has to reap what it sewed.
