his credo no chemicals. and. steps. to. the students on the past comes to. training successful. starts judge himself. welcome to global 3000. brought devastation to zimbabwe last year how is the reconstruction coming along. fake news and hate speech that's also

a feature of social media does this pose a danger to democracy. but 1st we go to the keeper a district of nairobi where the coronavirus crisis is causing many to go hungry. leiria tuberculosis hiv these often fatal diseases are still widespread in africa. and now they've been joined by coded 19 the worst is yet to come on the continent that is home to 1300000000 people warns the world health organization. africa has the worst health care in the world with one doctor for 3300 people on average. by comparison o.e.c.d. countries have one doctor per 300 people. the coronavirus is exacerbating poverty and hunger even in countries like kenya long considered east africa's economic power. house more than 2 thirds of kenyans work in the informal sector as artisans

vendors cleaners most of these jobs have been wiped out by the pandemic now many people can only afford one meal a day and residents of nairobi's biggest slum are desperately worried about their livelihoods and their children's future. it's a tense evening in nairobi's keep it a district and ambulances brought a weak elderly man back to the village who are supposedly tested negative for the corona virus. but many here suspect that he's still sick it's not entirely clear what his status is but people over worried enough to force the ambulance to take him back to the hospital. do you think this is a coronavirus dumping ground shouts someone in the crowd. the next day 2 bystanders tell us it nearly erupted into violence. the problem with the club how can they

bring up the she and the hero we did not. like having because he was out of it kids because the thing that we that we love to that's the beauty of it to other people who do about it aka not because the driver and the police agreed with us that they had taken back to the hospital. now you didn't because the crowd was shouting burn the ambulance set on fire and you know me i'm human thank you i'm with you. officially there have been around $11000.00 cases in kenya so far which is relatively low but there is widespread fear of a major outbreak the country responded quickly with lock downs and compulsory masks but the economy is suffering greatly output is expected to fall by 4 percent this year. and the number of infections has been climbing faster recently in poor quarters like keep it as well. this district of kenya's capital nairobi is suffering especially badly. many here now depend on food donations one woman is

close to tears she doesn't have a mask with her the volunteers simply give her a warning as they hand her the food parcels. these are typical scenes and in amongst it all the children schools have been closed because of the coronavirus a potentially devastating blow to the future of the younger generation here mothers like sophia she one too can't home school their children the family has no laptop tablet or computer and the power is often out anyway. but i can't check their answers i didn't go to school so instead they go to the neighbors who do that for me. sophie is 14 year old daughter sheila gets up at 6 in the morning to do her homework. she waits eagerly for school lessons to begin on the screen at her neighbor's house. so don't say

just news group. because. we don't have any teeth we. don't have the. moon but his 3rd movement. i need to. learn but. there's still a. tentative deal really. i won't hear a negro i want to be devoted. to. me murder she was frightened missing too many lessons so she goes round to study at her neighbour's whenever they're at home. since the beginning of the crisis the government has been working with the united nations children's fund unicef to expand remote learning school programs. it's an attempt to

avert the worst says unicef jean and give you. even before covered the learning crisis you know it was very high. the 2 leaders are not able to achieve their learning or that they need to achieve at a particular age and you can imagine plastic corbet then this learning outcomes even becomes. their children of the same becomes a problem. if the power fails and the signal cuts out then she will simply has to miss out on the class which is frustrating but remote schooling at least offer some sense of stability during the crisis. actually make it only 3 this is also the reason why sophia her son invites round as many as 10 kids a day to use her t.v. in the kibera district. she wants to protect them from another kind of threat during the crisis. it is important in that you know here in so

many cases. so i'm trying my best to put them together so that they don't and. there are many like sophia trying to help others they're the backbone of nairobi's keep it a quarter people who won't give up no matter how long the crisis lasts. 'd brazil the coronavirus has been downplayed by the country's president year bull sinatra despite testing positive he has pressed local governments to end lockdown measures and social distancing the outbreak in brazil has claimed the 2nd highest number of deaths after the us yet many brazilians are returning to precursor on a virus activities many out of sheer necessity. it's a tough job working as a snack vendor on copacabana beach lessoned all of barrow ones as up and down in

the sweltering heat for i was. he has no other choice. move about the shelling on the beach is still bad. but i just had to work again. because the government doesn't provide enough support. pca. copacabana beach is of course an icon of rio de janeiro. it's also a place where rich meets poor. son travels for 4 hours every day just to work here if things go well he barely takes 100 euros home with him. do you think i know this disease is killing a lot of people but if we all stay at home we'll die anyway only without work and food. strict social distancing measures all theoretically in place but the police have long given up trying to enforce them almost no one here follows the

rules. it's an open goal for the fire rests as more and more people take ill and die and while the state is failing to control the situation pressure mounts to open back up as if everything's returned to normal. that's plain to see as we leave the beach. the usual hustle and bustle has returned to the alleyways of the old city. almost half of brazilians work in the informal sector and lift day to day so they have no choice but to be out. only a few shops was supposed to open off to quarantine but hardly anyone stuck to that . we're brazilians we don't give up we battle and we muddle through before the city security came around a couple of times and tried to stop us working again i just quickly tied everything inside and left the door half open. carol and her family are also back in business selling food from the trunk of fact car. the lockdown took

a big financial toll on. ok thank you being we're taking the risk because we have to work if we could stay at home we would but we couldn't afford to anymore because they by their law that they had to deny having dinner. after eating into their own stocks for a while cairo's mother has gone back to cooking for other people every night into the morning on the menu today is beef with rice and beans one portion costs a little over a 2 year as they used to sell $100.00 meals a day now it's about 30. cairo had high hopes of president. and his promised economic theory but those hopes have been damaged by his handling of the pandemic. they end up with i think mad at him he runs around without a mask he's careless. and he shakes people's hands he's no role model going to make

women down but a lot of people follow his example they don't stick to the rules either because he's not a good role model may. be facing the death toll continues to rise unabated some regions have even had to build musgrave's brazil isn't strong contention with the u.s. to become the world's worst affected country. the poorest are getting the worst of it we travel to the for one of the biggest and. people here seem to feel abandoned. a truck has just arrived with donations today it's been disinfectant volunteers from a citizens' initiative help unload the truck. and. we have to fend for ourselves that's the way it is in the 5. little by. the younger ones are doing most of the heavy lifting it's hope that they have a better chance of surviving a covert 19 infection. cooperate 20 year old student is one of the organizers.

there are so many dead and so much sadness among family and friends. that's what motivates us. we've already lost a member of the team to the kimono virus and my friend who's just been helping out is infected right now. that's not going to faint you know. it's especially dangerous to distribute goods in the back alleys of mar a well armed gangs rule the streets the volunteers took this footage for us outsiders are not welcome at the moment the virus is spreading and the inhabitants have no real means of protection. it's not clear how many people embers those poor of quarters of falling victim to the virus because people who don't get tested don't turn up in the statistics that. certain is that the number of deaths has multiplied dramatically feels betrayed by her own government. but the government doesn't care about the favela we're really angry with the state. because

it doesn't just neglect us it's also racist and we suffer at the hands of the police here in the for. the for van and most of the young black people who are killed come from the favela. most of the black people who die of covert 1000 come from the following and. right now we're at the epicenter of the coronavirus the core of you dish. and that the very people who are now packed on to buses and trains again. to go back to that job stirring things like cleaning high end shopping malls so that those who can afford it can safely consume. the phallus of the city's engine room cleaners laborous street silos but also teaches nurses and bus drivers left here in these crowded settlements collectively indispensable but easily replaceable as individuals for decades this is the cynical equation that's cappers 0 running while keeping rich and poor wells apart.

fake news and conspiracy theories like the notion that 5 g. radiation makes you sick have flourished on social media during the pandemic much distance from ation has spread on facebook reminding many of the platforms role in the 2016 us election campaign. back then with the help of data analysis from cambridge analytical wealthy right wingers and russian operatives targeted voters on facebook possibly influencing the outcome of the election. critics of social media say its potential for manipulation undermines democracy. the internet a seemingly invisible and intangible place but there are also invisible dangers lurking beneath the surface. to me it feels like boiling

a frog you know very slow incremental changes and we end up as the fall from. britain's breck's it and the us selection of donald trump were among the 1st political campaigns to use algorithms to target and manipulate who uses. such a new form of censorship a very very strange one. democracy is vulnerable now because we are vulnerable to manipulation that we don't even notice. we need someone in london who has played a part in that manipulation christopher wiley works for cambridge analytical the company behind the worst case of data abuse in facebook's history it was co-founded by former white house chief strategist steve bannon and ended up serving as a propaganda machine what he was analytic as showed is. how easy it is to infiltrate american political discourse and manipulating the harms that

have come from the. to me is akin to you know our weapon of mass destruction destruction 6 years ago wiley left cambridge analytical he became a whistle blower and testified before the u.s. senate now he's written a new book a peek inside the engine room of mental manipulation. the purpose of. the algorithms. they came in general in a creative word to identify people who were more. prone soon neurotic traits or conspiratorial ideation the company caught hold of and analyzed the data of millions of facebook users to identify the individual fear as together with psychologists cambridge analytical was then able to develop targeted political propaganda for different types of people that have the power to skew someone's viewpoint even if by just

a few degrees rather than talking in public i can whisper into each and every single person here i remember. watching a focus group where. african-american women would talk about how vulnerable they would feel going to their 2nd or 3rd job at night walking alone. in the middle of a city and that you know they needed a gun to protect themselves if you're a right wing campaigner you go ok so let's ignore all the race justice stuff let's ignore equality let's focus on the feeling of being a vulnerable black woman in the middle of the night. cambridge analytical no longer exists but the tools they developed still do journalist peter pomeranz earth researches propaganda at the london school of economics. in the west we did have a social contract for 60 years around certain types of discourse. that we'd learnt

from totally terrorism that we don't use but the internet just took it to a different place and suddenly all the stuff that was forgotten you know we do not do demeaning the other in polite discourse you know we could hinted it the tabloids played with that you know they they kind of they were an echo of nazi or soviet propaganda but to just see not propaganda all the time on the internet every day that's pretty pretty shocking one tactic used to destabilize democracies is to flood the internet with contradictory narratives this is freedom of speech but used in a way to camouflage the truth what they do is something that some people call censorship through noise they. flood the information space where so much this information information chaos and what steve baron calls flood the zone with. that people can't tell what's true or false anymore so this is censorship not through

constricting but through opening up the gates of information. it's like a place has been created where freedom of speech starts to attack itself it's easy to believe that politics will never catch up with the digital world but that may not be the case. imagine entering into a building. that was built by an architect they didn't have to follow any safety standards because we put certain terms and conditions at the front of the door and what we have in software engineering and data architecture is no rules we need to have a legislative framework for digital technology that recognizes that it is a product of engineering they're not services the books. no one from cambridge analytical suffered any consequences for their actions there are calls for a regulatory body to approve algorithms move fast and break things was once

a facebook it's obviously worked. in our global ideas series we focus on climate change projects that inspire and offer solutions this week we go to zimbabwe where. struck in 2019 we meet people in the region. who are involved in rebuilding and environmental protection in the wake of the storm an. 18 year old. remains devastated she was here. through this in march 29th. several of her friends were killed in the disaster over 200 houses were destroyed even now tackled sue i can barely come to terms with the power of the storm. this blessing i see. a wonderful place they were lots of things. but.

in a little moment everything was buoyant. if i also caused a series of landslides in the nearby to money money national park. to my money is home to 200 different species of bird. so there are a cypher chorale he has been working for nature conservation organization bird life zimbabwe here since 2013 now reconstruction is also on his list of tasks. it's a real restoration is something key now we have seen what is happening around the world with deliberate set up which must be monumentally which is this is the ideal city area and the it's an area that also needs restoration as well so that see the environment will also continue to be degraded. the environmentalist and his

organization are active in 6 villages. in one of the tree nurseries villages like john john g. have joined together with others to grow me trees we sit down to their community. how big a tate our our area by. blending is. different in the species so we started by choosing. weatherboard needs so that we nest there while i miss that. sucker riaa is worried that invasive plants species might take root and spread in the areas destroyed by either by native plants would be of much more use to the environment and the people here they can grow in a changing climate. models in and to in your species of trees was there used to

already be local conditions this served and also the rain for that will be used to see if we these trees have to be replanted to increase there with bricks. twice a month fuck araya gets together with representatives of the surrounding villages. the environmental scientist gives advice on how to use the natural resources and he tries to instill an awareness of nature and the animals and especially the birds in the area as they come from the different villages the knowledge that we imported for people we actually that it was misprinted to do all i can gather 6 villages and if you could meet. john john g. has prepared live said vice into practice in his own garden. alongside his miss and maze crops he now also keeps a fruit or change. the name of any other. mean i

realise that an orchard is one of the many sources of income generation for me. when i was 4 i started this i used to only grow maize and vegetables. it was that i later grew to appreciate the orchard. different trees norrish the soil and i'm spoilt for choice. because a some fruit trees are growing others are already bearing fruit. but if there is somewhere that i gotta. janji sells his priests in neighboring villages and that ensures him an income even during the coronavirus crisis. so they're a side soccer riot is happy with the orchards abundance because it's also important for the whole area. there's a davis store burrs money money mountains and it is when we get national parks. that also visit. communities and the forests in also they also come into

orchards where they could actually get some fruit since all feed on falls so by. different authors we also supply food to many organisms which is where it's safe. insect populations will also ravaged by side i most of the 50 beehives here were destroyed. traditionally farmers here hollowed out tree trunks to service hives. now bird lives and bob way is helping them to make beehives out of timber wood as a way of protecting the remaining tree stocks move. we have fruit trees in the village go in and spread the pollen and this is good for our harvests because eventually we'll have more fruit and when people realize that there are of bees in this area they won't chop the trees down because they're frightened of bees also

provide some form of security to give you. $600.00 hives up land the environmentalists believe that if people have a sufficient source of income they will be more likely to protect the environment c. that's all from global 3000 this time do write in and tell us what you thought of the show then look us up on facebook didn't you women see you soon.
