played an important role in the. face. and in doha the top stories on al-jazeera and investigations to be held into how the world has responded to corona virus as the number of infections approaches 5000000 the world health organizations 194 member states voted unanimously for an independent and impartial inquiry including an examination of the w h o's role the move has been welcomed by the director general who said that it wanted accountability more than anyone i was always. fully committed to trying to spot accountability and continuous improvement

we want accountability. anyone a powerful cyclon has started dumping rain on bangladesh and india is eastern coast millions of people are being moved to shelters before the storm hits land later on widens day and in india's west bengal region preparing for the site phone as being complicated by the rapid spread of coronavirus people are being asked to maintain social distancing while staying inside some shelters tavor choudhry has more from dhaka. the government figures says nearly 2200000 people have been put into a shelter that made accommodation for at least 5000000 people now bangladesh's used to cycle on it something a frequency almost every year but the cycle on our super cycle and that's much more to read the last one we had was in 2007 cycle in cedar so the government is very

very much taking this as a challenge considering it has to deal with kobe had 19 you know pandemic in the country now we know a lot of people have already been evacuated since yesterday evening the danger is a lot of people also stay in scattered island what is known here as silt outside and island out by the coast many of these people don't have shelter and also the fisherman deep sea fisherman at least we know that about 600 fishing boats are still not come back nearly 40000 people in this silt island don't have shelter those people need to be evacuated before the storm hits which is expected to be sometime late evening today the un's acting envoy to libya has warned that an influx of weapons and mustn't race is threatening to make fighting more intense between the countries warning signs a number of civilian casualties has surged in recent weeks forces loyal to warlord honey for have been continuing their year long campaign to seize tripoli from the

i'm attached to my phone my computer my tablet. indeed amazes me how in just 20 years they've completely changed the way i live and communicate. our devices are sleek and elegant. we store our lives in a beautiful to cloud. land. there's . i started making this film to explore the impact

of our digital revolution. and then secrets the industry tried to hide for years began to spill out. that it. was. our electronics are made and unmade is dirty and dangerous i love it it's a global story of damaged lives environmental destruction and devices that are designed to die. to live as. elin 11.

inch mess. industrialization have put a huge pressure on our ecosystem and on the environment. when it comes to i.t. industry many people think it's it's grainy or natural it's rain or some people think it's even think it's virtual. but in our investigation we find it's not like that. this pollution is having different consequences but i think that the top impact the biggest impact is on this public health we have 300000000 who are

residents who don't have access to sufficient safe drinking water. want to see what they almost see the have a shiny new economy but not. the kind that your show does not let them do a check. to the world that they do it it's on them. to just it's is a hold up you hold women's event and it was shot and then the ultimate. i keep thinking about the moment when i face all those environmental and social damage. river you know which carries all the ways to lake.

river and base old ladies suddenly around on their knees in front of me. i'm not like. i don't have any sort of government administrative power and don't have much financial resources to do with this but i told myself at that moment in front of those ladies i told myself that. at least i need to bring the message out. i need to make sure that all the users of all those gadgets they need to be informed about this. i moved to this area in 1969 to go to law school because i said i wanted to help

people who didn't have the means to represent themselves. it was a time when most people not heard of the semiconductor industry. but within a few years people started seeing the the birth of what has become the you know global electronics industry. the. top names were companies hewlett packard apple intel advanced micro devices. the virtually the who's who of the electronics industry. and of course the granddaddy of them all was i.b.m. . when i got a card and i.b.m. that was great that was the company to work for at the time i could go any place where he worked i.b.m. i don't need an id just write a check it was that easy i.b.m. had that much clout i was the 1st microprocessor buyer for i.b.m.

in the early eighty's the idea of a personal computer which was was on oxymoron right i mean without personal computer what end it what would you use a for anyway but it got legs and we started the p.c. business the 1st year they shipped $50000.00 units. and so we went from a 1000 a week 240008 week and at that point the peace scene was launched. from almost the very beginning you heard electronics and semiconductor production was a clean industry they said it was as clean as a hospital but what they weren't telling people was that it was really a chemical handling industry and that the magic of making these microcircuits relied on the use of hundreds if not thousands of very toxic chemicals and that's why they have clean rooms that's why they have bunny suits to try to protect the

chips it was never designed to protect the workers it was always designed to protect the product itself over i got those a lot of different chemicals they built the disk drives we had to strip them out and then would have to dip i'm in severe gases and with a sponge and just with armed with severe i dunno what it was is i just knew it stunk really bad and you couldn't get it on your skin because it would burn you like nobody's business what what happened was people started getting sick with very strange kinds of illnesses things that didn't seem to make a lot of sense and didn't seem to hang together but increasingly as this happened more and more there was a small group of people that began to think that maybe this was related to the chemical exposure on the job. one put music on yeah right you want to turn on the music from. that's some good music on today.

right there. because i mean there's a thing of. the. 1975 i was 18 years old and i started working in the electronics field i went to a spectra physics and they just hired me just like. i was making the end of the laser and i would have to mix up this chemical in i used to call it green go. and get the consistency and then put into a spray gun and i would have to heat that up after a glued on together that was just all the way that i did. yvette you know the material she was using turns out to be probably in the vicinity of 50 percent little excite she didn't know she was exposed to lead in tell her

that i got pregnant with mark in 1079 and that was full term my months and we're just really happy about it. that he doesn't even know to cross the street and know a car is coming to stop going to the restroom you know i have to go with him in there so i have to system with everything. number one or you know. if i knew what i know now how to read out a spec or fix at the time it was unnecessary it just. breaks my heart that i could avoid it. oh we're filing this lawsuit against her employer and it's a lawsuit for his son who was born with severe developmental disabilities and is a suit concealment of systemic chemical poisoning and case of a vet and for the direct injuries to mark. marks condition isn't like

a cold take antibiotics and you're going to be fine in 5 days this is life. you're . just overrides all that and you do what you're going to do to the stereo still do . i'm sorry going to go. but. i discovered i.b.m. had a corporate mentality. which they kept for 30 years and it kept track of the causes of death of their employees the most dramatic findings were about cancer for the company as a whole this was $33000.00 deaths that were in this corporate mortality file so included people who had worked all over the u.s. . but then when you look at specific plants like the i.b.m. plant in san jose there was some extraordinary excess costs of deaths one was brain

cancer the other was not hodgkinson foma another was melanoma of the skin and in the women breast cancer was 3 and 4 fold higher than expected. that was the heart just said it was a lost. in a santa clara courtroom today the 1st trial out of more than $200.00 similar lawsuits filed against i.b.m. former i.b.m. workers jim bore and a lighter hernandez say they developed cancer from exposure to toxic chemicals at i.b.m. san jose facility in the late seventy's or early ninety's i mean literally tried to prevent the results of the tally analysis from ever seeing the light of day in fact they went to the judge and said this can't be used in this case a lot of hernandez is not dead she's going to be in the courtroom and not only was it not relevant the judge said it prejudiced the jury if they saw what these excess cause dust were and so he denied the use of it in the court

many of the brands will respond to questions by saying no one has ever proved to me that a single person has died from exposure to these chemicals either within inside their factories or outside of the factories and of discussion but that's not the way that we approach environmental or occupational health in the world we are not flying blind here at all especially on the chemicals at issue here in the electronics industry actually and most of the common chemical used in all industrial manufacturing we've been at this work for 40 years. if you look at the pub listening generated by again you would think that we lost everything and that's simply not going. after the trial i.b.m. matters were resolved for hundreds of people whose claims did not go to trial. what

can you tell us about the settlements. i'm not going to be able to talk about any of the resolutions of the cases and i won't. can you give any details at all. did you have to agree not to reveal the details as part of the settlement all i can say is that the matters were resolved that's what i'm allowed to say. here in silicon valley chip companies and the other electronics production companies used hundreds if not thousands of toxic chemicals and the most of the chemicals once they're used in making the components needed to be disposed of as waste the companies ended up storing them in underground storage tanks all over the

valley. but what the brilliant people who were designing these systems didn't quite think through all the way was that the solvent swer really good at dissolving things and so when you put them into a tank eventually they're going to eat their way through the tank. solvent that the electronics industry used in production in silicon valley in the seventy's and eighty's are now on in the groundwater and if you think about putting a drop of ink in a bathtub. that spreads really quickly and it's really hard to get that dropping back that's what we're dealing with except we're dealing with multiples of gallons of the stuff that is in the groundwater. in late 1901 there were over 100 families in one little neighborhood who had serious problems

and the state health department discovered that the families that were drinking the most heavily contaminated water had significantly higher rates of miscarriages and birth defects then did people in other neighborhoods. well the chemical industry will often say if i had not a dime for every time i heard this that even water can kill you those non toxic thing of course it can but only if you stick your face down in the bathtub or fall into a you know fall into a large body of water and so that has the traditional approach to toxicology is that the more stuff you're exposed to the more harm it causes you but what we're seeing in particularly around cancer and around hormone disrupting chemicals is that it's when you're exposed to it the time of exposure so if you're in 3rd trimester and you get even a perp or 1000000000 or part for truly an exposure it can actually cause significant damage. we formed this silicon valley tuxes coalition and we did

a summer organizing project getting people to sign petitions asking the e.p.a. step in with their authority in the superfund program yesterday and yesterday yes. and i went to a meeting in washington and presented these thousands of petitions saying we need e.p.a. to come in it's time for e.p.a. to exercise your authority and to everybody's great surprise they agreed to do that . so hewlett packard became a superfund site until became a superfund site national semiconductor advanced micro devices i.b.m. you name it they were there and they were all superfund sites. the cost of cleanup for i.b.m. as well as all the other companies has been tremendous it's an enormously slow and

tedious process. if you look right over here also this is a major residential neighborhood just directly across the street from this industrial site. most of the people living here today are unaware of this huge toxic plume. and those same chemicals that are still right under where we're standing are now beginning to seep back up out of the groundwater through the soil and are actually coming into the offices of these software engineers a google. and this is the one that e.p.a. said might take 300 years to clean up. this is so complicated the devastation is so enormous that we're really talking centuries of cleanup not just years or decades. the problem is that it just keeps reoccur. please when companies started moving away from silicon valley to china i think that they were the only too happy to have

the government off their back. their chinese government made an offer to multinational corporations that they couldn't refuse. you need a land and you need money and you need government approval and you need lots of people to put it all together well they have all of that in china. just. please. let.

me and one of the primary purposes of outsourcing is to enable companies like apple to make what are essentially an reasonable demands on manufacturers that they wouldn't and couldn't make if they actually had to employ the workers directly apple doesn't have to worry about what it means to workers when they insist on a tripling of the pace of i phone production. to go to the glue and sons of those who. come in the new. ball. anyway focused on this is you. know you. know you can see as you go by the one you don't we see you know some of the.

from a single example last year and. this one gains here it's not. played against. the us military. will. cause the. news as we do want. to live it will not. be out. so we have. to. test it on the way and. you know we. knew they would sit and have.

to do such a thing how much. don't let me go boom another you go and see they. do or so we made our loved ones we did good teaching good to go do this and we're telling each other you put in the to know. so if our you saucy you know how you sound sung to god so they. say you have an estate in sweden this is the sudan did you know that you. know it's easy to do so because of that it's. based on. it's resizing. so good about themselves.

you would think i'm going to be able to. do more in the yard were changing toward him and. you can see more. doubting in general. didn't move from the truth of the injured in the costume. of the one of the 2 ladies. a.t.m. sure. he laid out a new solution. which he told me. change him.

hans's the right is here to report on the people often ignored but who must be heard how many other channels can you say will take their time and put extensive thought into reporting from under reported areas of course we cover major global offense but our passion lies in making sure that you're hearing the stories from people in places like palestine the young man the sahara legion and so many others

who go to the you make the effort we care we stay. the story along the family and freedom calling from i was 8 years old you were at school and we heard the sounds of large explosions. and the hardships faced in captivity they came for me at midnight they told me to leave my son i said how can i face in my so much pain in the eyes of the other female prisoners. in the our pricing. on al-jazeera. refugees heading for a better life in australia to send it and sent to remote island indefinite detention in holistic conditions get a conscience in order to understand how you can do this to me smuggled out for each and eyewitness accounts the main thing you're doing for pain to ease asking them

not time themselves to kill them terms witness chasing a sign and. on al-jazeera. matheson in doha with the top stories on al-jazeera a powerful cycling has started dumping rain on bangladesh and india as eastern coast millions of people are being moved to shelters before the storm hits land later on white in state and in india's west bengal region preparing for the cycle has been complicated by the rapid spread of the coronavirus charger he has more from dhaka. bangladesh has been very experienced in dealing with this there are the volunteers health care navy and army personnel all ready to deal with the situation

but this right all those even less so the cycle only as we can pretty fatal starman title wave those usually damage the croplands and fisheries in the coastal battle and that takes years to recover from for the farmers and poor people in the coastal area and that today also odd since last night there's been rain and gusty wind and ponder that it would cause a lot of problem people living in the rural lately have particularly in the coastal belt of bangladesh and investigations to be held into how the world has responded to corona virus as the number of infections approaches 5000000 the world health organizations 194 member states voted unanimously for an independent and impartial inquiry including an examination of the role of the w.h.o. the move has been welcomed by the director general who said that it wanted accountability more than anyone. the u.n. is acting envoy to libya has warned that an influx of weapons and mercenaries is

to him a couple days leaflets of homes in the photo 6 missiles you see youngest about to do it has died and 15 others were injured after an explosion at a foxconn factory in chengdu southwest china the 802 some opened on cuba you know you just i don't hold a day or 2 didn't make it around 7 pm in a polishing workshop it appears to have been triggered by an explosion of combustible dust in a duct. no one to be surprised that aluminum dust if it's in a high enough concentration and there is an ignition source it will produce explosion and fire this is a hazard which is extremely well known. so the fact that apple suppliers have an explosion in chengdu in the plant means that they had very poor housekeeping very poor production processes that's terrible. what's

completely unacceptable is that 5 months later at another plant within the apple supply chain they had another explosion and fire. its outrageously inexcusable that they had a 2nd 15 months later. they set up these ply chains exactly the way they want them they monitor these chains with exacting scrutiny so they know exactly what's going into their products at every point along the way. here. we have

a town hall i fix the guns it will show you some of that and. so i have an i phone 5 here and them and show you a little bit about what's inside what makes it tick and some of the design choices that apple made putting it together to the 1st thing out bill has on the bottom is too proprietary penta loeb screws this is a security screw that apple designed to keep people out of the phone once you get the phone open we can start to see the guts. this isn't really a phone it's pretty much a full blown computer that can make your phone last for 8 hours if you need a really big battery batteries and phones last about 400 charges every cell phone i've ever had just popped the back off you can pull the battery out swap a new battery and every year or 2 you have to replace the battery apple has decided with the i pod and now the i phone that they don't like that model so what they are doing is building the batteries in the phone and using proprietary screws on there an attempt to limit the lifespan of the phone to. 18 months which is around the

time when they have a new phone and they want you to buy a new one anyway. i fixes a company that wants to see everything get fixed so we show people how to fix things and provide the parts tools and guides to enable them to do so helping everyone fix everything so that's the challenge it's a big challenge because there's millions of devices out there and luke and i are reluctant capitalists we get excited selling screwdrivers even though that seems like a boring product because we're selling people a capability where they're able to do something that they wouldn't have otherwise we want to make it simple and easy for people to repair their own stuff. the amount of raw materials that go into the products that we use are stagnant over $500.00 pounds around material go into making in a down south. so here's an example of a circuit board in this you waste bin this is out of apple laptop from

a few years ago even if you make this circuit board in the most environmentally friendly way it's still going to use a ton of water a ton of money probably literally a ton of water lots and lots of materials. when we know for. nothing is different. electronics industries close the ways that through this the american manufacturers are. they're selling a thing and they're saying well you have it but you don't really own it. there's no way we're ever going to. ford would never say. we're not going to make tires available to keep your car running after 30000 miles you have an entire ecosystem an entire industry that's built on secrecy and. that's trying to pry open the show people what's inside. and we've kind of been conditioned by manufacturers and

brands to leave yourself on the outside don't worry about the details we make this product we give it to you and you just use this product and when it stops working you go buy a new one. when we originally started i fix it it was just a way to provide people with some solution to fix broken devices. and over time we've realized both the manufacturing and the environmental problems are all huge concern. over the last few years i've been to china on a regular basis a lot of that related to our tool manufacturing. and. we're looking at getting some circuit boards manufactured. this is the big rechargeable battery and this is the main circuit board in here so considering it's just

a flashlight you can see it's surprisingly complex circuit board and i've got these basic schematic to sort of board once we decide and we'll leave them with them and . finding the supplier that is environmentally friendly has good quality and has reasonable pricing all 3 of those at once is probably going to be a challenge. for next. visiting factories we've found that it's surprisingly effective to show up on short notice. in general any factory of it's not willing to let you see the

factory is an immediate red flag at least for someone that we don't want to do business with. this is the big line. in the factory so this is where they're edging it bringing all these nasty acids and other chemicals in. you got a little bit of acid believe you you can see deal that acid on the outside of the machine. i walked over to where there were some storage tanks and there was basically acid all over the floor. and the moment i looked over that they told me get back away from here and this isn't giving me a good feeling. as far as making sure everything's done correctly environmentally it doesn't seem like that's

a priority for them. and they got out the mouse whoever it the fact that it was so dear to you is the price you have to pay for the last 30 years of development you. don't want to buy from them. what you thought was the time to somebody. from all that i hope you know about incentives from them to me. to fight. for sounded good and that's what went. from a 200. to a sensible 3 story so i said you know she brings my sense at the time to buy them just. as a what the idea what that's like

a model of model hope we're. going to see that i'm going to do a lot of the document template on so that it. doesn't you know about fox you know by you since you took. a woman sitting down when i do it so you decide and so when we should. do it it's a typical high profit. by us but to get don't you think you. do you see. these constantly changing. a lot of times.

this is definitely the most professional of the factories visited. the fact that we're being taken through this water treatment facility is a really promising sign. you start out with incredibly yucky water and it goes for a progressive series of filters and other process and eventually you end up with hopefully acceptably clean water. the coolest thing when the water is coming through the treatment facility some of the water comes out and dumps into this thing and they have fished in here in the factory and i said well i know the water treatment is working ok as long as the fish are still alive a little unfortunate for the fish because if something breaks maybe the fish die but it's clear to me that this would definitely be the factory to buy from up the one we've visited.

from the institute of public and environmental affairs module. thank you. ladies and gentlemen i'm truly honored and humbled to be the 1st chinese citizen to receive the school award thank you thank you i said this institute of public. affairs. and our 1st project. to be a national water pollution database. though this records comes from the government sources the public can access the information by click on the locations on the map

because people want to know you know who should be held responsible for such a bat what a pollution situation and so far we got some more than 110000 records of violations in our database. in april 2010 we filed letters to 29 mighty brands to check with them whether those polluting factories whether they are their suppliers . all of them responded except the one that is an apple. apple just give us one statement that is we have a long term policy not to disclose our supply chain. not to.

my june contacted me and we began to work together to apply additional pressure to a company with headquarters here in the united states my mission singled out a number of facilities that he believed were in apple's flagship that it had a very heavy environmental impact in their locality and when he level of those charges apple was shocked and sort of in denial that this type of problem to this extent could really exist in their supply chain. i think it's important to understand that this is not just about apple you know this is about the id industry. they all share printed circuit board manufacturers they all share chip manufacturer is you know despite their audit protocols there is a lot more talk than walk on environmental impacts in the supply chain. you say to

yourself how could they not know about any of these problems but you know it's it's always you ask and it's all you look for so if you are there and you have a checklist of what you need then you need it now and that checklist does not include what's going on at the end of the pipe of your wastewater treatment plant it's actually conceivable that you know exactly where it's being made you just don't know exactly how it's being made and what the impact is. that's what's going on not just with the apple but with all of these companies. 40 years of operating the environmental protection agency in this country these are american based companies hard to believe. we still have this industry which is discharging so much waste not just normal ways hazardous waste. in just one supplier it generates more than $100000.00 tons of hazardous waste

in one year. how could we dispose stuff you know in a safe way so how much a time bomb this industry is gonna create. in electronics at this moment of time i believe we're in the dinosaur age. we're using too many resources too many raw materials and the life of a computer is a typically 3 to 4 years. for a small company in r. and. a mission is to produce a fair trade computer. in the

early days i repaired this component levels on the computers on the one imports. from i noticed that there was huge amount of waste in the computer industry. so we started designing and building a database of graven reusable computers. this is my father's environmental drill and all my trusty and just you know it's just it's just. how can you build a computer would have to stick how could you build a computer without lead mercury p.v.c.'s brominated flame returns and all the other heavy metals. that was our gold the material we use is wood so that it's technology of 100 years ago but it's

perfectly good. computers will last 7 to 10 years because home users non-technical people can repair and replace i'm never place in the memory you can extend the life of upgradeability. today is is there a major launch in europe. we've lots of invites sent out to people. we were awarded the world's 1st year p. e. coli for integrated desktop computers it was the world's 1st ever achieve this award at that time i thought wow the the gates will open with orders for a flood in 1st that's not the case maybe a little bit of naive essay on my part it's hard out there like government agencies

some people like that there is no room for environmental they are totally just bottom line. i'm looking at it now it's one little step at a time the what we need to do is it work harder build more computers and get people to join us. and. americans toss out a lot of gadgets every day. if we look at the $3000000.00 or so tons of electronic waste that gets generated in united states every year probably 15 percent of that gets recycled. and some percent of that gets recycled in a responsible fashion.

part till. she's a t.v. . movie about all. of that when you need to fill in. the miles and you'll see on the farm. the ends of. the. forms you'll. see clear and. the clean needle many to try to hide. those with the. sun the feet hunting.

al-qaeda hi susan. shit domo says you should. the one who has a piece. of ice which is what she. says to a program says the decimal sapiens out how you. so the sound happy that he. this is. now. she. heisley you so male. they. think ok we'll send are you waste of china let them burn it let them have the

pollution but we have to remember that air pollution travels around the globe. that pollution is getting lost into the atmosphere and coming right back to us. metals and metals and metal you know and it's there's no other form for it to convert to you can convert it from being in the soil to being in the water to being in the air but you still have a metal. in our work we fly through clouds and we sample the cloud droplets and we measure the chemistry of each one very fast as you're flying through a cloud there flashing as fast as you can imagine on a screen and we collect all that information and what we get is what's a chemical fingerprint. in california with getting rid of lead in gasoline we've reduced the amount of lead we have and so when lead shows up that is one of the

tracers that we say this could be from elsewhere and we can trace it back in time and say you know 4 days ago this air was over asia. and you have more pollution you have more aerosols those go into the cloud and so you have so many things they can't get big enough to fall and lead to rain. and it's giving you these extremes of either not enough water in some places and way too much water in other places. what happens if we push it too far. we'll start to see more of these extreme events things like flooding and hurricanes. these are what people often refer to as tipping points and not so that's what we're very concerned about happening. my attachment to my devices is more complicated now. it's hard to get excited about
