12:25 pm
a week ago to try to stop the flow of undocumented people across the border. a latin america editor, lucy newman, re for some cold shiny laura wiggle room. it's been more than a week since chilion soldiers began patrolling the border with neighboring bolivia to control undocumented migration. but every one we speak to says that the mainly venezuelan and colombian migrants continue outwitting authority versus ethan gender, to put it up. what can they come down that hill and the coyote is pick them up in many buses and take them to the city through back roads. the bus driver should be punished. it's a legal this has become the main entry point for tens of thousands of undocumented migrants. this path is one of the main smuggling routes from bolivia into chile here and the at the camera desert. you can see the footprints here that show that people were passing probably over night. it used to in fact, be nicknamed the cigarette path because our cheap bolivian cigarettes were smuggled,
12:26 pm
usually from there into tilly and stolen cars, were smuggled from chile into bolivia. now it's no longer really a cigarette smuggling path, but rather a path used to bring undocumented migrants from bolivia into chile. it's not just smugglers were making money, but also bolivian soldiers who man this space just over the border according to chile and soldiers and police as well as local residents, the bolivian soldiers. so using vehicles like this one, to bring my grants right to the border and charging them $30.00 a person. last night i couldn't sleep from the noise, the bolivian soldiers cross over all the time they've even stolen. some of my lamas complains dis, resident but there's a bigger problem. bolivia, cut diplomatic ties with chill in 1978. the neighbors have only consider relations, and that's made this desolate border. a magnet for migrants,
12:27 pm
ela really syllabic on lucille, solomon. bolivia will only agree to take back undocumented migrants from its own country. it's the only country that does that. this means that venezuelans, colombians, brazilians, or anyone else who comes into chile without authorization, cannot be sent back for you. the at the name of chili's government is currently attempting to negotiate a reciprocal deal with bolivia. but so far there's been no breakthrough. meanwhile, the local indigenous, i mad us who for centuries have gone back and forth across the border as easily as crossing the street complain that they are the only ones obliged to produce up to day permits. to enter this country, to see in human al jazeera, called chaney energy companies save as made a breakthrough in one technology for helping achieve climate goals by capturing and storing carbon dioxide emissions. on wednesday, denmark was the 1st country to ship industrial, c o 2 across international borders and stored permanently underground for
12:28 pm
environmental purposes. here's how it works. carbon dioxide gas is sucked up from large industries, such as factories and incineration plants. it's transformed into a liquid and shipped out to former oil rigs at sea. finally, it's injected into disused oil wells and sealed up with scientists, saying a seo tool will eventually become a rock poll. reese, when to denmark, to see a technique at work. it's a process being billed as a breakthrough in the fight against climate change, carbon dioxide, harvested from industrial emissions in europe and injected into disused danish oil wells under the north sea there to be stored fraternity by energy companies with a climate conscience. it's nothing else than reversing the flow and taking a c o 2 and preventing that from going into the atmosphere with rather stored under under the ground. we're going to do it to mitigate climate change. i think that is a huge step forward. if you think about the multitude of solutions we'll need,
12:29 pm
if we're having to get the planets and at 0, we're now started to take the 1st year to lottie. congratulations. it was denmark getting the congratulations on wednesday when it's project greensand claim to world . first for carbon capture and storage, or c, c s. the carbon dioxide was brought from belgium to denmark on this ship taken out to the north sea and injected some 2 kilometers under ground. officials here believe they can store up to $8000000.00 tons of c o 2 every year. both the european union and united nations now want to develop ccas globally. this facility in stock home has been tested as a joint vacuum cleaner for c o. 2. aiming to clean up the same amount produced by a year of traffic in swedish capital. we separate c o 2 from the flu gas as of a combined. it's in power plant at to process that use industrial baking soda. we do the same thing as a baking oven. we increase the temperature and the baking, so releases the theme of to that is stand separate from the rest of the flu gases
12:30 pm
that c o 2, we can compress, transport and store as good as burying c o. 2 might sound environmentalists see it as an excuse not to phase out fossil fuels. the attraction of this is that everything can continue as normal and nothing needs to be done by anyone. it's just magically is removed, but this magic has surprised it. cost energy, it costs money, it cost resources. what we should do instead reduce logging rates. trees would sequester much more carbon at a much lower cost if we would invest all these funds in energy efficiency, we would get a lot more bang for bucks. so this whole thing is a pipe dream, then mocks carbon storage is the 1st in the world of its kind in scale, but whether it takes off may depend on making it profitable. a full scale project could start next year. poor east al jazeera as b r g denmark. ah.
