the next morning the she volume weiss is staggering. ah. that before it's even been driven away. i buy another load of used closing a p is it is put up to sale. i may not be using like solomon neu is the city's weiss manager. this place is severin as a dumping ground for tech star. we're in the near more for 2nd globin ah. close to 40 percent of what they're my shipment, but they are coming on a daily basis and soft to be complete chop were of no value every

day this truck is soon to overflowing with this roughly 6000000 garments every wait for life can't demand time market is waste, and a huge proportion of all of that clothing is trucks, 2 hours north of a crop and ends up being dumped his landfill. ah, the pressure from the used closing industry is relentless. the city of a cra,

now has to find some way to dispose of more than 160 tons of textile waste every single day. with black christiane, a mango is a retailer who sells her stock outside the city. and i wanted to help me. i made a home visit with as long you have my my and a half of a hand to mouth existence for the single mother of

3 who travels for hours between the can't demand her market and alkaline villages. she says she fell into the tribe after her brother used juju. sorcery to force her off the family farm. not because miss almost double. my me be that actually i miss away. a prius being see me quite. well, we'll catch that mistake on what day it grows say, when in one today as i see, i mean won't talk thomas. i mean seek lulu when you feel crucial bank? ah,

oh, daddy, me breath. i live now. yeah, this is that. me all these. i may by no be as i will get out and, and i'm, i will find me. i'm on i'm, i'm back. i'm in president for winnable. we're christiana works hard to care for her family, but it's becoming harder because the bylaws of clothing being imported into gonna arriving in worse and worse condition. okay, beautiful. not a net or bad chillies. oh, fun only say amber la ah, it's monsoon season in ghana. and when these fees rains come,

the unwanted clothing washes into the cities open suicide and chokes it's more to life. you know? yeah, and the tropics. so we have very high precipitation. that form of rain well so and no heavy downfall of reed will get there. are these on collette dead with into the stop and res which are not covered in a week and then it gets into the ocean. it means all these layers of text i without path suck piling id which embed and that is working with the aquatic life in bit like that. internet rang so and we've done cleanup here. you can big like 15 feet and still find angles. and these rickets has spent the past decade documenting the impact of clothing waste on john up. that also becomes really dangerous for people when

they're swimming because they're like going back and forth. and then i'll hit them and then on the fisherman and wraps around their motors. the takes dolls which wash back on sure, become so tangled in the sand. they're almost impossible to dig out the tangled mass flow, then we call them 10th because this is all tangle that very little, the higher your z. but when they 1st one was not there very long. you know, they can be 8 needs 30 beads and sometimes 3 feet. why these tentacles have their origins at kat demantzy market? ah.

a manual. yeah. hello. hey, wow. nice to me. i thank you. my you. a job is another important that we, i went to think there's been this work. yeah. we want to see what it is to live. is some dick it yeah. and weren't whooping was shot dead into groups until they open the bales. importance. have no idea whether they can have time trash or treasure light blue shield. this one is going like the top quality. okay. here we go. well this one sir, is that gonna be robert? yeah, this is the rubbish. and this one to we'll call it the 2nd one second. okay. this become will. yeah. this one is going to look,

it's what it's got a sign here. no, no go. it's not good. it's in the manual and his colleagues to spear at the growing number of low quality clothes arriving at gonna what you think of this one, see how it is data from here. so it's wet to shoe not which it seemed a bit because lucky. short disease or efficiency in europe or yuki and to a sri america and did think africa. yeah. we are. we are known, let's get women been sorta to say that use this because what they are given to us is allowed even if someone didn't knock your door and you want ela, you cannot just given, picking something from your desk, been and give to the person. so in this case it's like they are doing this to us by

all costs emmanuel $92.00 for it to this was that was you can sell. okay. after sourcing the whole bio, you can see he's going to make a significant loss today. 45677 pieces in a bit. and how many altogether and a bio. and this one was 180 to 200 pieces in the band. and you find some better bad. so at the end of today, where would you put that? where would throw demo it? now the problem is there is no room anywhere in across the list to throw this massive carefully engineered landfill was meant to be the solution to accurate waste crisis. it should have provided enough capacity for 15 years. but once it started accepting

quality thing waste from can demand time market was filled to overflowing within just 5. now the city's only alternative is a growing network of informal unregulated dumps. so a lot of the way brought here by infernal collectors who pick it up at the end of the day like this one on the age of old fatima the cities biggest to slum it doesn't work is anything wrong with them at all. synthetic textiles can take hundreds of years to decompose this mountain of waste. my cast, it's fitted shadow over these neighborhoods for generations to come.

i think unfortunately, what happened is that the waste, they are blamed for the waste. the people of old pharma are not responsible for this problem, but they are forced to live with it than this waste and other places like this where it's used to, for their disenfranchised people, were already living in poverty. to blame none for late that they did not v won't all consumers be some responsibility for this waste crosses? lose rickets lies much of the blame of the door of the world's big fashion houses. really, it's brands, it's brands that are over produce. st. waste is a part of the business model of fashion. a lot of brands are produced by up to 40 percent. so when did they start building this?

at least 3 weeks ago. much is the unwanted clothing is simply burned. ah. it's not unusual across the sky to blacken with smoke for dies at aton ah ah but for many who live in old fatima, including ayesha, dra soup the flow 2nd hand clothing into donna has been a lifeline. emma

d at that fashion than being at that that with there are other problems which is simply more pressing why she lives in this small windowless room with 4 other women and all the worldly belonging to a. ready landing yet i so perhaps it's for the waste in steed to think more carefully about the quality of what we dies. i'm not sure i'd never been conscious to ox. where is the final destination of india discarding by? come here like you've come and see the practicality for years that then there was

no doubt, no, we'd better take care of this in our country and not to ship their problem to adopted with after decades of conflict between successive columbian governments and the fox marxist gorillas and historic peace accord in 2016. so fight is lay down their arms 5 years on a mit rising defense and fruitful police repression. a new cycle of violence has robbed the nation. people and power off if the agreement is failing and what's next for the country, columbia, and killing the piece on al jazeera october. oh, now just hear them growing vaccine inequality to the political and economic impacts
