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 not 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 island his brother holly and their mother were hunted drowned only abdulla cordy survived. to the capsized after people stood up. i held my wife sound. and we had life jackets on trying to keep our children out of the water but it didn't work holly died fast. i'll never forget holly's words when he said to me papa don't be afraid 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 a hunt team according. to 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. in it's own life or. why. or need to. and i said to him i think it's all my fault and he said to me you know all the best in the world

in tried to hold. before there are. many people who oppose on both innocent people were dying but the world were silent and to that in each of my nephew and one currency that's when it's fool's hope. culch 1000000 people's heart and more and this stand up from their side and they sense enough is enough we need to hope the. team accordingly said that her brother not now lives in her b.

and n. 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 their 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 or to any other country.

kurdish television has also covered up do it according to speight and has revealed some good news i don't like already has once again become a father he remarried 3 years ago. i wish. 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 am

a big deal over. the baby and sing into the baby and sometime when i call him he will be lie down. in the other room because the baby is crying. and he said to me i just can't i just can not hear him crying my sister said maybe if they came to. that woman too when he lost his family and the crying then chanting maybe you know when your trouble times it's on the street. they are already. long time. i know. for up don't according to a new baby is a great gift he has named him alan.

the coronavirus 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 colvin $1000.00 health crisis will cause $1.00 trillion dollars in losses to the travel industry. that's equivalent to the entire annual 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. 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 elephant camps since the government barred foreigners from entering the country in march. for the owner so chad missing 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. sitting out 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. with nothing. in 2 weeks out to visit his village to deliver rice eggs and canned fish. he 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. we set up who's a lawyer says the state can't help everybody. wants to feel like their lives run we need to help them so when i think of them like.

stopping don't have anything to eat so i used that. and then trying to on my friends to help. how many tourist boats 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 cliff krabby resort is still closed like all the other hotels but the staff are preparing to reopen. general manager job air and his team are placing tables far apart to enable social distancing people 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 you want to avoid 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. in traffic all that disappeared from the roads. overall lock downs have been good for the climate. this is prompted some cities including the french capital paris to rethink mobility. now jackson is experiencing around the cones it's an easy especially if you're a beginner. and that's something. that not be christina 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 well that's been my 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

that pandemic have an opportunity to learn how to ride a bike less confident riders are glad not to have to learn on busy roads man says i'm worried about the traffic it's fine here but it's a different story in the city center with all the car. busses. reversing 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 $60000000.00 euros to promote cycling the funds will be spent on bike lanes as well as on training programs. that for it's to make the city more environmentally friendly have been ongoing for years authorities that are ready vehicles from our road along different race than. now in the era of a pandemic they've gone a step further and ban cars from those who do have only a busy thoroughfare. unfortunately

such moves have ignited the ire of drivers. will likely fall it's a passionate cyclist who owns a bike repair shop. we feel under attack from car drivers because our numbers are growing the more space we take up the more. 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. with guy who runs the workshop for me has finally managed to take the day off it was the 1st time in 3 weeks so was meant to follow. this up with a move away from cars in favor of bikes is certainly good news for the environment

during lockdown road and the air traffic grind to a standstill in the 1st 3 days alone harmful nitrogen dioxide emissions fell by a 3rd. maybe christine welcomes the trend she's hoping she'll soon be. confident enough to cycle with her son. in. the cycling is good for your health and the environment everyone wins. is pride up as mother. is english 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 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 manassas located on the banks of the real name growth in northwestern brazil the snack bar and grill has a clam ente has been going for 15 years among the items on the menu is what i'm not a traditional brazilian energy drink made from the seeds of the same name. is the owner. if you want to know whether or not drinks are a specialty i'm also a specialty associated with our region amazon mouse we're talking about beverages that leave you feeling energized these 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 the model bottom half of the energizing effects of the 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 favorite the house special of course a mere one back out to the ingredients i use our avocado cane. cashews the powder used quite a nice syrup and lots of ice. 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 riyadh's. you have not every morning i have a teaspoon of natural guarana with milk. it gives you energy. some people describe as an aphrodisiac and so it gives you that kind of energy but . it also helps if you are trying to lose weight. my best if

anybody gives you the power you need to get through the day. people in my house also live longer than people in other parts of brazil maybe it has to do with the love of what i 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. bank alone in this attack as he 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 he's throwing his weight here he hasn't separated it this is in the 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 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 pickup in her neighborhood of koramangala. residents are meant to put their kitchen waste in the green been without linus it's the end directly into the truck. but a chemistry teacher takes it upon herself to educate residents. pretty. good. but. not to be so that is the only problem i see. if i lie neatly you feel like you should not. even you know. you're sure not. to have. it just because it really long with your food and then. not everyone follows the rules here all the trash has gone into one bin boy's my blood because.

we have and it's not rocket science. it's just separated and how hard is that. entrepreneurs encounters new dumping sites. making but then again an. environmental internee a has come up with his own solution to reduce the city's waste he's joined forces with. 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 patmos or. around this neighborhood which would normally go to a landfill is instead brought here as a rule material. the church has to come in well suited otherwise it means high operational costs and less bio gas. today if it's payoff

it doesn't disappear. this is merely 100 percent right there is about 5 percent but needs to strip the floor was an all large with which had very high living and content but i would rate this extremely good i mean this is now good enough for by i guess. the facility process has about 600 kilograms of local kitchen waste a day turning it into slaughtering 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 go by a 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 is about 90 to 94 percent of meet him which means it's much better than. it can displace any fossil fuel petrol or diesel so at

the end of the day we're creating a clean clean renewable energy right here and. the biggest value 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 the green all you know. and we don't have to stop selling those you own up to christmas you know it's cost. if there was good review and we're doing something 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 iran 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 cylinders that can be shipped to customers across bangalore. our dream is to have 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 more states he plans to

continue growing the waste to fuel business model could be a viable way for far more indian cities to clean up their act. then that wraps up today show thanks for watching if you'd like to get in touch e-mail us at global 3000 and d w dot com or check out our facebook page d w women until next time bye bye.
