hello, i'm sammy's a that this is counting the cost on al jazeera, your look at the world of business and economics this week, rivers drawing off and farmland parched. how stream drought in europe impact the cost of living prices. he also this week, millions of young people around the world expect to be jobless this year. once the lang, the recovery and youth employment and the year after the autonomy bomb to power enough. ghana, stan, it's economic crisis is worsening. walk in the grid, do to turn things around. ah, scientists warned aid could become europe was drowned him more than 500 years. war to scarcity has hit more than 60 percent of the continent from italy to the u. k. an unusually dry winter and scorching summer hates have reduced rivers to trickles, the historic water reserve lows for governments to restrict supplies. well,

that shortage is seriously affect the nearly everything from agriculture to the shipping industry, bernard smith's looks at the impact in to loose in southwestern france. i was all these are the geometry. i've never seen the river as low as this stuff, and marty tells me he's a fisheries officer. normal year, the level of the garage here would be above our heads. the river cuts through to lose its the cities life blood providing drinking water, irrigating farm land, and cooling a nuclear plant. stefan has had to take fish out of the river and put them into special tanks because the water is too warm to come to give us compared to the video. it's complicated, everything is connected. there will be less snow in the mountains. the glaciers will melt sooner. this year there has been much less snow, so less water in the mountain lakes. so pumping of the lakes is lower to keep the water longer. over 3 weeks, 40 percent of the water held in reserve in hydro electric dams,

in the parent mountains has been released into the garage to keep it flowing. just he weighs in europe are increasing at a faster rate than almost anywhere else on the planet. and global warming increases, but likelihood of drought drying out soils and vegetation lie even for a minimum. so, to me, you may couple for the whole company, so we need 60 millimeters of rainfall to be able to replace the soil. crystal comp n j tells me the forecast is for 3 millimeters this week. it's not enough. know the colon harvest across france is expected to be 18 and a half percent lower this year than last that already a global shortage because of the war in ukraine. even the sunflower of turned away from the scorching sun where there is access to water, there isn't enough to go around. crystal says she'll lose more than 30 percent of a crop this year soon. apostrophe is among gold. if we don't get enough water in this region, there will be no viable agriculture. even today,

the cattle farmers here have no grass on their fields. to day we own a land where it's crucial to develop irrigation. if only to be able to achieve minimum profitability. frances worse drought since records began in 1958 has affected so many aspects of how people live here. i think we really we reward or not we. we love train the kayak and we reward because there is not in a photo for, for the foot. in july rainfall across france was down 84 percent compared to normal . according to the french weather service. the summer isn't over yet. bernard smith al jazeera to lose southwest france. well, joining us from munich now is dr. miranda shrews chair of environmental and climate policy at the technical university of munich. good have you with us. so europe a seam drought before, but let's put it into perspective. how big of

a challenge is this one? this is a very major drought that is impacting europe right now. as much as 47 percent of the european continent is in some level of drought. danger of that 47 percent about 17 percent is considered in severe drought right now and the other areas are moving in that direction. so we haven't seen droughts like this too often. 2018 was a very, very bad drought year. 2018 was considered a one in 500 year drought. this is a 2nd one in 500 year drought. and this means that europe needs to prepare for for a different kind of climate in the future. and now we're seeing the transport of coal, we're seeing those hydro power plants, nuclear plants, they're also being impacted by this drought. right. what's that going to mean for

an already critical european energy situation? you are so right, right now the rivers in europe are at historic lows. the po river in italy, ryan river, traveling from switzerland through the netherlands. and the water is so low that we are no longer able to transport many kinds of materials by barge. which means that they have to be shipped by a truck or by rail, which adds to the costs of shipping. so sometimes materials can be shipped. all right, now i'm, so this is an added challenge on top of the prices that are skyrocketing of the warranty. ukraine and the limited gas supplies from russia right now. so this is a very challenging time for the european continent, and we're going to definitely see some very heavy costs associated with this route . we mentioned that the rising costs transport that's going to go be passed on to

goods, right. what is that gonna mean for people who us already struggling with the rising cost of living? well, of course, this has a very worried energy. poverty is already a concern because of the war in the ukraine, and the increase in gas and oil and coal prices. and it also means that now food prices will become more expensive. goods and materials will become more expensive. so this really emphasizes for us right now, taking every step possible to be more resource efficient. and it also means we're going to have to do some planning for the future. and you mentioned shipping, they're also getting impacted. what is that going to mean for the already complicated situation with supply chains? yes, this is again, just an added a crisis on top of the other crises. so right now we, we are seeing world wide problems. we supply chains and difficulties and moving

goods. it's partly the coated problem, for example, in china, it's partly energy costs. and so this is really making it difficult for many firms that simply aren't getting those supplies. they need to be able to produce their products. and we are hearing about factories that are having to go into temporary, a stop in terms of production, simply because they're not getting the parts that they need to continue with with production. i'm not gonna, i toll ask you for too much. just bring out your magic wand now and tell us what's the solution for this or european governments doing the right things. and i think europe is just now waking up to the reality that we don't only need an energy transition. we're going to need a water management transition. we haven't really prepared europe for the droughts that seem to be coming more and more frequently. so i don't think there is

a single easy solution, but we're going to have to be better at saving water. we're going to have to be better at recycling water. we're going to have to develop more cooling systems so that people have places to escape too. and it's too hot in europe needs to rethink what the climate is going to be like in the years ahead. and it's not just your up, it will be other parts of the world as well. i wonder what that means then for, i mean, if this is going to go on for a while, as you indicated that there isn't a simple solution. does that mean? are we looking at inflation? are we looking at recession for a while then? well of course, the hope is that the drought will break probably for the next couple of months. it's going to remain very challenging. we saw it in 2018 and between a 10 and 30 percent loss in agricultural sector due to the drought. estimates are that just the impact of the low water levels in the ryan river could

cost the german economy as much as 0.2 percent of the annual economy. so the impacts are indeed huge. and, and if this is not just a single one in 500 year event, but something that we're going to start to see numerous times every decade, we need to rethink a lot of things. and it really points to just how important it is that we develop circular economies, resource efficient economies, water efficient economies. we've been pushing the planet to its limits and we're starting to feel the price. oh, lovely. talking to dr. miranda. thank you very much. it's not just in europe, parts of the western united states are also in the grip of a 23 year drought. that's the worst on record. and taps are running dry in mexico

to just 10 percent of dams across the country. a full, the water crisis has reached critical levels in mexico's wealthiest city by you. all right, paula reports from monterey. the extreme drought conditions in northern mexico. this reservoir, in the outskirts of monterey, is almost entirely dry. and many here worry the same will happen to the local economy over another week of this things would only worse and boats are now stranded a top the dry lake bed at la boca dan. it's been months since the region has seen any significant rainfall. experts have identified several factors that are contributing to the ongoing water crisis here in northern mexico. the most significant of which is a weather phenomenon known as linear, which climate scientists say has been exacerbated by climate change leading to one of the worst droughts in the last 30 years. scientists see linea has disrupted

regular weather patterns in northern mexico. this means that rains that were supposed to begin in may still have arrived. and there is no telling when they will environmental activists see that despite the drought bottling companies like coca cola, heineken and others have continued large scale water extraction, making the situation even worse. or some of the, even though when i get on contracts younger, almost, we're living a great contradiction in the city. you know, a great deal to the big companies, but it's been at the cost of the wellbeing of citizens. and that's the problem. we need to completely rethink the question of water usage. the water crisis in monterey, a city of more than 5000000 people has reached a critical point. many now rely almost entirely on public water tanks. for some, they are the only source of water available. we'll discuss almost an hour, then we have no water,

nothing comes out of the top and we have to carry it back home for cooking cleaning and even the bathroom. we buy our drinking water from the supermarket on mexico's president, his vow to continue to support efforts to supply water to various cities in northern mexico. but experts say the strategy is not sustainable. adding that the only real solution is rein, manuel it up a low al jazeera monterey. the many people who are forced out of the labor market are unable to enter it because of restrictions during the height of the pandemic. now, with much of the world getting back to business, the international labor organization says the global job market will take longer than expected to recover. about 207000000 people are expected to be unemployed this year. but the young people could be affected the most. the i a low says the pandemic is disproportionately impacted job opportunities for youth. the us labor

agency estimates the total global number of unemployed use will reach 73000000 this year. that's a slight improvement from last year. levels of the i a low says unemployment remain 6000000 above 2019 figures. before the pandemic started just over 27 percent of young women are likely to find a job this year compared to at least 40 percent of young men recovery and youth unemployment is expected to be more successful in high income countries than in low and middle income ones, almost 13 percent of young people are without jobs in africa. but the confidence is not the worst performer. arab countries have the world's highest and fastest growing unemployment rates of young people. almost a quarter of our abuse are unemployed. well, joining us now from geneva is key bomb, kim, a macro, economic and employment policy specialist,

the international labor organization. good to have you with us. so why are young people in particular key being impacted in the job market? well, the, you know, there's a lot of, there's a variety of reasons. i think, 1st of all, it's important to bear in mind that young people were disproportionately in the, in the sectors hardest hit by the pandemic. so the sexes include, for example, in of food accommodation, hospitality, and of course, you know, costs currently. since then, we've had quite a bit of uncertainty in economic why. so we see, for example, you know, this year it's specializations repeatedly lowering cost, economic growth forecasts. and so, and i think and, and young people in this kind of uncertainty and fertility are, you know, it's not good news for them. is there a problem as well with training education? we've had, you know, deep disruptions in the green education which can lead to learning losses. and

these learning loss, of course, can have guarding effects over an individual's entire life cycle, either 2 or lower lifetime earnings, a lower career trajectories. also we see for example, that in some social economic settings we've seen of girls, you know, the 1st to be pulled out of school. and the last 2 we turn in. so these disruptions to, to girls will, you know, with her negative implications, agenda, inequality and labor market. alright. and the end of this pandemic, we're seeing, of course, a trend of people working from home, a speeding off of the sort of transition to more sustainable economies. is that going to help bring more people into the job market? in fact, yes, you know, i think so, of course, you know, countries need to continue to focus on, you know, addressing the impasse of the cobit of the could be 1900 pandemic because in one way form another they continue to linger. but i think countries also need to, you know, to not lose sight of longer term priorities. and so we have found,

for example, that, you know, in our, in our work that the digital economy, the care economy, the green and blue economies as well as a created economies, can provide a potentially large number of jobs for young people. we know, for example, our modeling work, for example, find that the transition to these economies can lead to an additional job gain of about $139000000.00 jobs in a corner of which would be picking up young people between the ages of 15 at 29, and you mentioned the issue with schooling for girls always seeing the trend of gender disparities, regional differences getting worse. i mean, for the, from the pandemic. and initially from the pandemic, we had the agenda of college in the labor market as wasn't education worth. and, but we have to actually also berry, my, for example, bass, you know, we've had a recovery since then. and so in some countries settings and it's difficult to generalize. but in some countries setting of, you know, for example,

young women of girls have benefited more. but i think it's important to bear in mind that the large tend to guess even before the crisis which, you know, would have been exacerbated initially but, but then there's still a lot of ground to, to be made up even though in some countries know we have come quite a bit further. talk about some countries of some regions. why are arab states the worst performers when it comes to the world's unemployment youth unemployment hotspot? but i think there's a number of factors, the 1st of which is of course, a just a demographic issue. there's a large, a fast growing young population into, into our states. the 2nd is it in terms of use unemployment to a lot of that is accounted bye bye bye bye young women. so for example, you know, rates of unemployment among young women are double, you know, that of young men. and so there is that issue. the 3rd i think is a very important issue is that, you know, the educational obtainment in the states, you know, has really progressed at

a much faster the we then economic structures of change and so you, it, so you find a lot of well educated people that want good jobs, but these good jobs are not necessarily available when we take into consideration global migration patterns and so on. is africa's youth unemployment problem really a global problem? indeed, i mean, africa. so africa was the fastest growing population of, you know, among regions. so i use unemployment to under employment in africa, you know, with, you know, can have serious patient questions, you know, more probably. so, but i think is important to bear in mind that unemployment is only, you know, the tip of the iceberg this, you know, for example, in africa, they're more challenges, for example, in terms of working poverty as well. for example, in terms of under employment and what we see, for example, africa during the pandemic, is that unemployment did not rise a lot of simply because in order to be unemployed, one has to be looking for

a job. but a lot of people, you know, once they start to look for a job in a, during the pandemic, and consequently, they realize that they're not that many jobs out there. and so they became discouraged. and in fact, these discouraged job seekers are no longer considered statistically as unemployed and now out of the labor for stick considered in active. and so what we have seen for exactly the case of africa, but also in other regions is that labor market impact of the condemning is, has been really been through, you know, this high rise in activity a lot of discourage shop secret rather than a big rising unemployment interesting thanks so much for chatting with us key. thank you very much. decades of war, years of drought. and now western sanctions have devastated afghan us times economy a year after the taliban took pow, the country's finances of vol, but collapse after the flow of foreign aid slowed to a trickle. many afghans can't afford basic goods and about half the population

doesn't have enough food. hundreds of thousands of people are jobless businesses, a struggling because of a lack of access to funds in foreign currency. the u. n. describes the situation as pure catastrophe, and it says only 40 percent of the money required to fund humanitarian health has been received so far. aid accounted for 80 percent of the afghan state budget, but it was cut all fast to the tale. bonds take over. the u. s. in europe blocked more than $9000000000.00 and central bank reserves as part of sanctions on the group. economists say the measures of worse than the countries economic crisis, the calling for the funds to be released, called a bon critics say it's failed to reverse the countries financial woes, but the group is pointing to improvements made under its watch. how do sarah spoke to acme, while a half mile, the spokes person of the ministry of finance about the challenges ahead? one of the biggest problem that we are facing economy,

currently and financially is in the district and on our banking system. the problem is that the world has the political, 5, economy and finance, and economy in finance, you know, doing with common people, which is harming all common peoples. but still we are in talks with them in dialogues. and even the treasury department of us has had some licensees which you decrease the restrictions on or banking system. the still we are used to eliminate all distinctions on our banking systems . now the taliban says its generating its own revenues and aims to meet its fiscal target for this year. our budget annually budget, which we made it is the 1st budget in 20 years,

which is completely dependent on our, on revenues. it is about $2500000000.00 and we believe it till the end of our fiscal year, or we can erase or what we have for cost in our budget. we have generated about $800000000.00 from customs for $400000000.00 for from non tax revenues, which are mostly come from mines in about $300000000.00 or from taxes. and just to some organization have peered a very small number of salaries, or many afghans say their earnings were depleted due in part to inconsistent salary payments. hotmail says the group has been paying wages on time and looking to the

private sector to help people find jobs. people shouldn't be dependent gent, just on government. we need to create jobs in private sector. and a, we have a good connection with our private sectors in doing facilitating them, the rules and regulations providing them what they need. we are a rich country naturally, but also have lots of land for agricultural. so we have to work in every single part, facilitate a regulation for foreign investments, a work for our agricultural in, you know, you have to work in all parts and we are doing that. but the thing is, if you want to bring a change which will take time, the ministry of finance is challenging, international organizations to order its claims. the country is now corruption,

free corruption was a big problem. man. i can see that the system was specially ministry of finance before us was even overt corrupted. or the other hand, the toilet in suff, emerett for corruption is 0. we took strongest tips tool to stop corruptions or bring changes in the leadership of the government and find a founded that the gaps of corruptions which what did in system found that and eliminated doors. oh, so now we can see that to we are a corruption for a country and we are already for an international organizations, international, transparent toward others to come and see her that the level of corruption that how we minimize it. and that's our show for this week. about, remember,

you can get in touch with us by twitter, use the hash tag a j, c, d c. when you do or drop us an email, counting the cost down to 0 dot net is our address is more for you online at al jazeera dot com slash cc c. that'll take you straight to our page, which has individual reports, links, and entire episodes for you to catch up on. that's it for this edition of counting the cost. i'm sammy's a dan from the whole team here. thanks for joining us. the news and al jazeera is next a 3 year investigation into the pro gun lobby we've been in florida was won't just got it really kind of reveal secrets me want to point, put messaging out there, get people out, race get mad and connections. some don't want to exposed many in legacy media.
