a half years. and there are differences within industrialized nations themselves to a child's background too often determines that success at school poverty can be a huge obstacle when it comes to gaining a good education those who can often spend a lot of money on their kids or willing parents spend around $90000000000.00 euros worldwide on extra coaching every year 'd partly because they're afraid their kids won't otherwise make the grade and so the gap widens in china too many parents and kids have one objective when it comes to schooling getting a good leaving certificate or gal cow it decides whether they'll be wealthy or poor later in life. joe waits here every day at 331st son's class to end she quit her job so that she could spend more time raising shall shout. the 7 year old spends 7 hours a day in school. but that's only part of his education but other factors.

a social network as many as 4000000000 people worldwide have no access to such basic protection those with the lowest levels of education a most at risk in brazil casual trash because and now being given the chance to train as official waste saltus instead. this patch of land 20 kilometers outside the capital brasilia used to be the biggest landfill site in latin america last year the dump was closed and a 60 meter high mountain of garbage was covered with. construction waste is still being dumped there although that's illegal for national waste policy ends to eradicate landfills and promote recycling with residual waste either incinerated or going to sanitary landfills that protect the environment but there are still 2 and a half 1000 open landfill sites across the country. often on this worked here as a waste picker for 20 years mainly at night she supported her 4 children by selling

anything of value. she found they used to live in a shanty town right beside the dump and. they were always in a struggle with the trucks the bulldozers and with more than a 1000 other people working here my boss it was survival of the fittest bed that my was about i was you took as much as i could get. and for women that was very challenging people lost their lives working here very tough. at 1st lucy a friend on this was very much against the closure of the garbage dump she had little faith in the city authorities pledged to provide jobs for some 750 trash because in new recycling facilities but now that's where she works and she's changed her mind. you know compensate he will say i never thought i might one day have a real job with me a simple waist picker with no rights and no social insurance i was so innocent and

now i work here i even have an office. if only i paid a little better it would be perfect as she am ice she used to and 4 times as much scavenging on the old dump she and her colleagues now belong to a co-operative that operates one of the recycling facilities whopping depends on how much trash they sort on average only about $200.00 euro's a month so far because for now not enough waste is delivered to the facility. and watch how many other fernandez is a supervisor she makes sure the work is done properly that how many. half a nice day to come there aren't enough people working on the conveyor belt a lot of recyclable material gets through then we have to check it to make sure things don't end up in residual waste that don't belong there if i see that happening i put more people on at the end of the belt that the process is set to

book. more efficient with the help of some students from the university of brasilia until recently that professor apollo says so does race gomes was deputy director of the municipal sanitation off. he helped restructure brazilians waste management systems. kind of everybody is collecting something different she sorting out glass bottles she's sorting out plastic bottles further along somebody is pulling out the cardboard i'm afraid it's possible the process could be made more efficient if the positions were switched around that's something we need to test this tell us. but not all the trash delivered here to be sorted can be recycled much of it has to be disposed of. the aim of the program is to increase the proportion of waste that can be recycled. everything that can be stored and soldiers returned to the production chain to the recycling at district if it doesn't end up being dumped so we're saving the cost of taking it to the landfill

extending the lifespan of that site and reducing emissions. this is brazil has new landfill site far more waste is ending up here than planned one mountain of garbage is complete and being covered with. the pit for the 2nd one has been lined with waterproof sheeting to protect the groundwater from contamination the plan is to capture the gas produced by the decomposing waste and use it. in brazil greenhouse gas emissions from the waste sector have continued to rise dramatically in recent years. the german development agency g i said is advise in brazilian sanitation authority on how to reduce emissions. i judge by your vision we are investing in expanding waste sorting and the composting of organic waste that will allow us to reduce the volume of residual waste and thereby

emissions of methane as well. as the army as what they are brought at the same time . to raise public awareness so people start their recyclable trash. professor paolo's race has organized across disciplinary seminar at the university . students from various fields are working on developing sustainable waste management solutions. i think. that one approach is to make waste sorting more efficient another is to focus on technology trucks sensors logistics others aim to raise environmental awareness how can the public be involved more closely in the waste recycling process than use the program bring students together with representatives of the green a simple sanitation authority the recycling cooperative and also commercial enterprises in cooperation with g.i. said the university of brasilia setting up a postgraduate program in waste management. among brazil cities the capital has

taken the lead into valid thing a sustainable waste management strategy. sorting out collection have just been expanded across the city lucy phenomena is optimistic about her future they'll now be more waste delivered to her co-operative to sort and that means she and her cause. leaks will soon be. that's all from us this time what did you find particularly educational about the program let us know global 3000 at devaney dot com see you next week.
