as for costs claim is for claims. 202250th anniversary here. welcome to global 3000 coming up. biking through paris and why the corona virus is encouraging more people to trade for whales for 2. summer 2020 in thailand and no tourists in sight. for locals times are tough. and a devastating image that shocked the world 5 years on alan cordy's father speaks about

his trauma. around the world refugees endure how rowing journeys in their search for a better life. and old they seek to escape poverty violence and injustice. but the individual stories of refugees rarely get told instead they often become an anonymous abstraction. the number of refugees globally has almost doubled since 2012 to about 80000000 the majority of these people are displaced in their own countries. very few of their stories ever make it into the public domain. but in the rare cases when it happens they have a powerful effect none more so than the fate of 3 year old alan courtney. the tragic exodus of the courty family ended at this beach near the turkish village

of. the mother father and their 2 children were trying to reach the greek island of kos in a rubber boat but the boat capsized. little on his brother tommy and their mother were hunted drowned only abdul. 40 survived. the do not give over to the capsized after people stood up. i held my wife santa maria and we had life jackets on trying to keep our children out of the water but it didn't work holly died. on i'll never forget her words when he said to me papa don't be afraid i don't know. the image of little islands dead body made headlines around the world the refugees desperation and their fate now symbolized by a tiny corpse 4 years later we set out to make contact with his father during our

research we 1st came across aunt team according. to canada for more than 20 years sure remembers the phone call that she had with her brother after the incident all too clearly. the 1st or. in its own mind paul. why. or need to stop. and i said to him i think it's all my fault and he said to me you know you're the best system in the world you tried to hope.

before. many people. innocent people were dying but the world were silent. and to that in each of my nephew allan chernoff. that's when. culch 1000000. heart. and more and this and now from their side and they said enough is enough we need to hope. tina cordy said that her brother do not now lives in her beyond any iraq's kurdish region we were unable to travel to iraq because of the coronavirus pandemic on the phone he told us his thoughts about what happened back then.

after the accident i was happy to see how countries open the borders and their hearts to the refugees. and how they gave them have been welcomed. unfortunately this warm welcome disappeared after 2 or 3 months. people not to undertake this dangerous journey to germany want to any other country . that. kurdish television has also covered up doing accords fate and has revealed some good news but don't look already has once again become a father he remarried 3 years ago. oh yes.

i was very surprised when the new baby was born i couldn't believe it it was a shock. i didn't know if i should be happy or sad or if i should cry. i have no idea what happened to me. when you lose your own child and i hope it never happens to you. it's a strange feeling if you've already lost a child and then have a new baby. thank god i'm doing better i'm happy about this new child. but some time with. the baby and singing to the baby and some time when i open he will be around.

because the baby is crying. and he said to me i just can't i just can not hear him cry my sister said maybe it came to. that woman too when he lost his family and cried. you know when your travel plans on the feet. long time. i know. the new baby is a great gift he has named him one. pandemic has caused devastation all around the world millions of people are grieving the loss of their loved ones many more are wondering where their next

paycheck will come from. among this last group are the huge number of people who rely on tourism to survive. experts estimate that the cold in $1000.00 health crisis will cause $1.00 trillion dollars in losses to the travel industry. that's equivalent to the entire anywhere economic output of mexico especially badly hit by the travel decline jamaica where g.d.p. could fall by 11 percent this year. thailand 2 is expected to see a drop of 9 percent. last year some 40000000 foreign tourists visited the country. so what happens next. in. thailand looks lovely other never. do gongs are chilling with no people bothering them. the beach is an hour knocking and elsewhere empty and clean that has to do with the

absence of foreign tourists. none have come to put the elephant camp since the government barred foreigners from entering the country in march. for the owner such atmosphere that meant business came to a sudden halt he did receive a one off payment from the government but it didn't go very far. he still has to feed his 4 elephants and they each eat up to 200 kilograms a day. still because of the corona virus crisis there are no tourists anymore i haven't had any income for months to pay my staff i'm spending my savings it's hard to keep going. there's nothing going on at the tourist shops near the beach and. tourism normally accounts for more than 20 percent of thailand's g.d.p. $6000000.00 people across the country who depend on the industry for their

livelihood face losing their jobs. some families have already been left with nothing. in 2 weeks out to visit this village to deliver rice eggs and canned fish. she started collecting donations in april and now helps about 50 families. fishermen can no longer sell many fish now that restaurants are closed hotel workers have nothing to do souvenir sellers have no customers. who's a lawyer says the state can't help everybody. wants your life if they are broke we need to help them so when i see them like. stopping that happened if. so i did that. and then trying to ask my friends to help. how many tourist votes will we enter service

after the pandemic is anybody's guess last year some were saying there are too many tourists this year it looks like they're going to be 70 percent fewer. the other than the oh none cliff crosby resort is still closed like all the other hotels but the staff are preparing to reopen. the general manager for the job air and his team are placing tables far apart to enable social distancing because he says it's important to win the trust of returning guests. and guys please make sure you pinpoint the digital menu to begin because more people giving menus and. when reopening occurs there may still be no or few foreign guests so hotels are hoping to welcome thai holiday makers to tide them over the big hope is that by autumn the foreigners will be back.

thank you very much with all the measures we have put in place not only as business as in the years but also at the government level you can feel safe to come to the country the country has managed the outbreak better than many others in many respects so it's a. new national tourism marketing campaign set to replace the well known slogan amazing thailand with amazing trust to thailand the thinking is that visitors will only come if they have good reason to feel safe. amid all the tragedy and heartbreak the coronavirus has caused they have also been occasional glimmers of hope one of the positive developments concerns how we get around. over the past few months air travel ground to a standstill. and traffic disappeared from the roads. lock

downs have been good for the climate. this is prompted some cities including the french capital paris to rethink mobility. objects and experiencing around the cones it's an easy especially if you're a beginner. i guess i think. that now the christine has a good reason to keep practicing. and that's what this is more than equal i want to be able to ride uphill with my son. did i'm not going to give up and also because of the coronavirus i need to stick with it and stop taking the train. and then i'll take the bike. let me parisians are using the pandemic as an opportunity to learn how to ride a bike left confidence riders are glad not to have to learn on busy roads my sister

i'm worried about the traffic. foreign here but it's a different story in the city center with all the cars and busses. remoting bicycle use in the french capital has also and seemed like an uphill battle but with the coronavirus the tide seems to be turning the french government has pledged $16000000.00 euros to promote cycling to funds will be spent on bike lanes as well as on training programs. efforts to make the city more environmentally friendly have been ongoing for years authorities had already banned vehicles from our road along the river stan. now in the era of a pandemic they've gone a step further and bob cars from the who do have or leave a busy thoroughfare. unfortunately such moves have ignited the ire of drivers. fault it's

a passionate cyclist who owns a bike repair shop also if we feel under attack from car drivers because our numbers are growing the more space we take up the more we. think that. is among those benefiting from the government's investment in cycling for every bike his workshop prepares the state contributes 50 euros in the 3 weeks since the scheme began some 60000 bikes have been fixed. over these days i start at 9 am and finish at midnight. or guy who runs the workshop for me has finally managed to take a day off it was the 1st time in 3 weeks so i was almost mint you probably. missed the move away from cars in favor of bikes is certainly good news for the environment during lock down road and air traffic grind to a standstill in the 1st 3 days alone harmful nitrogen dioxide emissions fell by

a 3rd. beach this. well comes the trend she's hoping she'll soon be confident enough just cycle with her son. into going on the. subway the cycling is good for your health and the environment everyone wins again the. 11 year old julia is pride up as mother. is in when it's good to keep active and i'll soon be able to go on bike trips with my mum and that would be cool if it was just trading 4 wheels for 2 little paris an increasing number of people are happy to make this which. let's leave france now and head to brazil where we'll discover a very special snack. in the city of my mouse is located on the banks of the real negro in northwestern brazil the

snack bar and rule jose clemente has been going for 15 years among the items on the menu is. a traditional brazilian energy drink made from the seeds of the same name . is the owner. if they want to know whether or not drinks are a specialty i'm also a specialty associated with our region amazon us we're talking about beverages that leave you feeling energized he's drinks help you stay awake and as well as that they actually reduce your appetite. maybe that's the reason why so many people here choose to drink them on a regular basis. model bottom half the energizing effects of a plant have been known for years the indigenous people in amazonas used to take it while hunting to stop them from tiring out. has 30 different mixes on the menu her

of water not drinks. now to our global ideas series this time we're in bangalore a mega city that's known today as india's silicon valley its green areas once home to some $280.00 lakes are clogged with waste a result of the city's rapid population growth. we paid a visit before the coronavirus struck to find out what residents are doing about the situation. in the heart of bangalore garbage is festering everywhere this neighborhood is literally drowning in it. illegal dumping sites are more than just an eyesore residents complain of a fellow all day long several cases of dengue have been reported in the area.

that can only miss a palace he has hired so-called marshals to crack down on those. littering or dumping trash the motional makes the offender pick up the bag he just threw away. throwing his weight here and separated it this isn't a dumping ground the garbage truck went to his house party because he woke up too late. to be found. it's $200.00 rupees just under 3 euros for dumping household trash. the city's infrastructure is failing to cope with the unchecked development and growth once known as the garden city bangalore now has a new nickname garbage city. some have had enough. every morning. inspects the trash pick up in her neighborhood of course among. residents are meant to put their kitchen waste in the green been without linus it's

then done directly into the truck. but a chemistry teacher takes it upon himself to educate residents. either to get it they are. going to get it. but he can't put plastic you know. so that is the only problem i think. if i lie neatly you feel like. you know. to have. it just because it really long with your food and then you. know everyone follows the rules here all the trash has gone into one bin boys my blood because. we have been and it's not rocket science. it's just separated and how hard is that. entrepreneurs some not only on encounters

new dumping science daily a lot of the spark this. painting them are making but then again it appears out of. the environmental engineer has come up with his own solution to reduce the city's waste he's joined forces with mystery ballroom to set up a bio gas facility. i think they're following instructions very well looking so full featured that you feel gammick waste from padma shri ballrooms neighborhood which would normally go to a landfill is instead brewed here as a rule material. the trash has to come in well source it otherwise it means high operational costs and less bio gas. today if it's payoff. is good. this is merely 100 percent right. but needs to strip

the floor was an alert with which. i would read this extremely good i mean this is now. the facility process has about 600 kilograms of local kitchen waste a day turning it into. the actual plant is further away built in we 3rd shipping contain is on land provided by the local authorities. there is also a business model. the old bio gas is purified here and then stored in a tank. the resulting gas brand named carbon lights. what we're producing as an end product. might be 4 percent of meet him which means it's much better than. it can displace any fossil fuel. so at the end of the big we're creating a few. a clean green renewable energy right here in. the biggest

buy is a neighboring restaurant the gas is piped in from just 200 meters away. the restaurant is hugely popular the kitchen uses about 70 kilograms of bio gas a day which is also cheaper than conventional cooking gas. were damaged out of your pipe for up the river and all the old. we don't have the stocks in and of the owner responds with its cost effective is good really and we're doing something pretty and right where. the bulk of bangalore's waste is driven 40 to 50 kilometers outside the city there are no official dumps within the city anymore for the $5000.00 tons of garbage bangalore generates every single day . some not only on has scaled up his operations to help keep more waste out of landfills and make his business valuable

. about 13 tons of food waste arrive at this plant north of bangalore every day from i.t. parks and corporate campuses. about $7000.00 jobs have been created here at the bio gas plant. unlike the facility in the city it also compresses the gas it's then bottled into senators that can be shipped to customers across bangalore. our dream is to have this across india with coming into this business running their own micro units it's a win win for the country as well as creating more jobs and creating energy security. something that iran has already expanded into 2 moves states he plans to continue growing the waste to fuel business model could be a viable way for famu indian cities to clean up their act.
