we are working so hard it was there to keep you informed on over platforms we're all in this affair and together make it. stay safe everybody. stays a day safe please stay safe. welcome to global 3000 coming up. biking through paris and why the coronavirus is encouraging more people to trade 4 wheels for 2. this 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 trot. around the world refugees endure how rowing journeys in their search for a better life. young 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 cullen courtney. the tragic. 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 al and his brother harley and their mother were hunted drowned only up to look already survived. the do not give over to the capsized after people stood up. i held my wife sandy. and we had life jackets and tried to keep our children out of the water but it didn't work holly died for us to. look i'll never forget holly's words when he said to me papa don't be afraid don't look at. 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 an ant team according to lived in canada for more than 20 years she remembers the phone call that she had with her brother after the incident all too clearly. the 1st or. second it's all my fault. why. i need to stop. and i said i said it's all my fault and he said to me you know all your the best sister in the world tried to hope.

before there are. many people. innocent people dying but the world were silent. and to that image of my nephew alan currency that's when it's fools. culch 1000000 in heart and more and this stand up from their side and a sense enough is enough we need to hope. tina cordy said that her brother donut now lives in terror beyond any iraq's kurdish region we were unable to travel to iraq because of the corona virus 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 welcome. unfortunately this warm welcome disappeared after 2 or 3 months. people not to undertake this dangerous journey to germany want to any other country . kurdish television has also covered up do it according speight and has revealed some good news i don't like 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 sometimes he will send me. to the baby and sing into the baby and sometime when i call him. around. in the other

because the baby is crying. and he said to me. just can't i just cannot hear him crying my sister said maybe it to. that woman too when he lost his family and. maybe. you know when you're in trouble. on the. long term to a new. new baby it's a great gift he has named him on. a virus pandemic has caused devastation 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 colvin $1000.00 health crisis will cause $1.00 trillion dollars in losses to the travel industry. that's equivalent to the entire anyone economic output of mexico especially badly hit by the travel to klein 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. 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 as micio 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 coronavirus 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. went. broke we need to help them so when i think of them like us. stopping don't have anything to eat so i just bought. and then trying to ask my friends you know how. how many tourist boats will really 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 non cliff crabby resort is still closed like all the other hotels but. the stuff preparing to reopen. general manager joe baer and his team of placing tables fall apart to enable social distancing because he says it's important to win the trust of returning guests. and guys is make sure you pinpoint the digital menu the biggest because most boys giving menus tend to happen. when reopening occurs that may still be no war 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 businesses in 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 and in many respects so it's a. new national tourism marketing campaign is set to replace the well known slogan amazing thailand with amazing trusted 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 all that disappeared from the roads. overall

lockdowns have been good for the climate. this is prompted some cities including the french capital paris to rethink mobility. objects that are existing around the cones in. easy especially if you're a beginner. i guess i think not. but now he christine has a good reason to keep practicing. i want to be able to ride uphill with my son. 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. many parisians are using the pandemic as an opportunity to learn how to ride a bike lets confidence riders are glad not to have to learn on busy roads. i'm

worried about the traffic it's fine 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 that tide seems to be turning the french government has pledged $16000000.00 euros to promote cycling the 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 plus road along different race than. now in the era of a pandemic they've gone a step further and bought cars from the blue devil 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. can equalize 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. my guy who runs the workshop for me has finally managed to take the day off it was the 1st time in 3 weeks so upon the whole was almost a month you probably will. miss the move away from cars in favor of bikes this certainly good news for the environment during lockdown road and air traffic grind to a standstill in the 1st 3 days alone harmful nitrogen dioxide emissions fell by

a 3rd. mab age 15 lucina welcomes the trend she's hoping she'll soon be confident enough to cycle with her son. into a good story on the. subway the cycling is good for your health and the environment everyone wins again the. 11 year old julia is proud of its mother and. listen 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 it was just a cool trading 4 wheels for to tell her it's an increasing number of people are happy to make the switch. let's leave france now and head to brazil where we'll discover a very special snack. in the city of manassas located on the banks of the rio negro in northwestern brazil the snack

bar and brewer has a 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. guessing whether or not. whether or not drinks are a specialty and also a specialty associated with our region amazon us we're talking about beverages that leave you feeling energized these strings help you stay awake and as well as that they actually reduce your appetite. me that is the reason why so many people here choose to drink them on a regular basis the model bottom half of 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 either so that has 30 different mixes on

the menu her favorite the house special of course a mere one back out to the ingredients i use our avocado keynotes cashews the powder used quite a nice syrup and lots of ice because it all gets thrown into a blender the shop sells 302400 water in our drinks every day a single concoction will set you back 10 brazilian. could you not every morning i have a teaspoon of natural guarana with milk only. it gives you energy. some people describe as an effort easier and so it gives you that kind of energy but. it also helps if you are trying to lose weight. my best. anybody gives you the power you need to get through the day with you and. people in my house also live longer than people in other parts of brazil maybe it has to do

with their love of what are not drinks 'd. now to our global ideas series this time we're in bangalore a mega city that's known today as india's silicon valley it's green areas once home to some $280.00 legs. a result of the city's rapid population growth. we paid a visit for the coronavirus truck 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.

bank of the municipality has hired so-called marshals to crack down on those littering or dumping trash the marshal makes the offender pick up the bag he just threw away. this guy who's throwing his way here yes and separated it this is a little dumping ground the garbage truck went to his house but he missed because he woke up too late. to be found. $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. inspect the trash pick up in her neighborhood of koramangala. 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 herself to educate residents. yes but i love mark brady either i get it. me when i get i will get it. but he can put nasty no end of it to be so that is the only problem i see. if he can i lie i need to beat you feet but you should not because it does you know. so you should not. to have. beaches because it really compost along with your food and then we would need the same age difference. not everyone follows the rules here all the trash has gone into one bin boy's 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 some other spark this. painting them are making but then again it's going to. be environmental engineer has come up with his own solution to reduce the city's waste he's joined forces with patmos rebuild rome to set up a bio gas facility. i think they're following instructions we were looking so full featured that you feel gammick waste from padma shri ballrooms neighborhood which would normally go to a landfill is instead brought here as a rule material. the trash has to come in wells was hit otherwise it means high operational costs and less bio gas. today if it's payoff. is good. this is your 100 percent right. but needs to stop

the flow was an alert which which i mean but then i would read this extreme i mean this is no. the facility processes about 600 kilograms of local kitchen waste a day turning it into slurry the actual plant is further away built in refurbished shipping containers on land provided by the local authorities. there is also a business model the bo bio gas is purified here and then stored in a tank. the resulting gas brand named carbon lights is sold. 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 day we're creating of a clean clean renewable energy right here and. the biggest guy is in

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. or demonstrated your pipe for that for being all year old. and we don't have the stocks in those you own up to. you know it's cost effective it's good when we're doing something pretty and right when. 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 buyable. about 13 tons of food waste arrive at this plant north of bangalore every day for a mighty parks and corporate campuses. about 17 jobs have been created here to buy a 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. his business. 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.
