this is d.w. news line from berlin tributes for the late us supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg but her death has already ignited a partisan battle over who will nominate her successor will have more on the latest issue to divide the u.s. also on the program for. better reason police crackdown on democracy protesters further anti government demonstrations and better or worse are followed by more arrests targeting women will cross over to our correspondent in the federation capital for the latest. on the reintroduction of strict social distancing

measures sparked protests in london hundreds of people gather in the british capital breaking rules limiting public out it's. really as welcome to the show mourners have been laying flowers outside the supreme court building in washington d.c. and tributes to the late supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg she died on friday at the age of 87 from pancreatic cancer ginsburg had spent 27 years as a member of the court and had built a formidable reputation as its most liberal judge her death has led to not only to an outpouring of tributes but it's also kicked off a political battle about who will replace her u.s. president donald trump says he wants to fill her post with

a conservative judge as soon as possible. days before her death ruth bader ginsburg told her family she wished her supreme court replacement would be selected by the next president ginsburg was the leading liberal voice on a court bench that already has a conservative majority they decide on major issues such as abortion and voting rights the court can even pick the president as happened in 2000 in the case of bush versus gore current democratic presidential candidate joe biden said ginsburg successor should be chosen after november's election there is no. let me be clear. should pick the president the president should pick the justice. to consider but president donald trump says he will fill the vacant court seat without delay just weeks ago he announced a list of potential replacements to become his 3rd supreme court pick.

justice ginsburg has self was critical of the politics behind the nomination process i don't know what it was. but we really. when people. have someone to be. read trying to. have the. flags were at half mast across the country and in front of the supreme court flowers piled up as public tributes were made from across the political divide the search for ginsburg successor threatens to be less dignified. well joining me now from washington d.c. is rachel rizzo's she's a political analyst and director of programs at the truman national security project i rachel welcome to the show ruth bader ginsburg's death comes just over 6

weeks before the u.s. presidential election how will it impact the rights well this is the last thing that we needed in a political season which is already extremely heated what we can expect is mitch mcconnell has mentioned the president is going to attempt to you know appoint a new nominee to the supreme court and mitch mcconnell has said mediately after ruth bader ginsburg's death that he would grant a vote to to president trump to appoint a new supreme court judge what we don't know is if he will have the votes available to do that senator lisa murkowski you susan collins mitt romney have all been on record saying that a new judge shouldn't be voted on before a new president the question is if they're going to stick with those comments or try to push someone through before the election or immediately after so it does

sound like the battle is in many respects already underway i mean essentially just hours after the death of ginsburg do we have any idea of when we can perhaps expect that replacement judge to be it to be named. i think we can expect it in the just their short course of a few days there are already names that have been floated in the past that are starting to pop up pretty quickly here any coney barrett and a conservative 7th circuit judge is one of them a most the poor is another barbara lee gullah these are all conservative judges who you know would would potentially replace what was a progressive voice on the supreme court a true dang guard and tighten and tireless advocate of progressive causes like abortion and women's rights and gay rights so the question is who that and replacement might be but the certainty of it is that it would be someone who is

conservative right but you've mentioned there some of those of the issues would be of importance to of course the whoever replaces ginsburg time portman start role in shaping you do us in the years to come rachel. it's extremely important i mean one of the big questions over the trump presidency he's been able to appoint conservative judges to the supreme court and the questions that a lot of you know progressive advocates and democrats throughout the country ask is you know what does this mean for progress that we've made on issues through you know in the past issues like you know roe v wade which decided you know abortion in the united states years ago what is that what does that mean for the future of you know women's rights and gay rights and things like affirmative action and so i think the those are big questions that i think we're going to be answering and asking in the coming months you know the hope is that senators what will hold back before voting on this and we see what happens in the november election but you know

really this is this is politics at play politics are going to be important here and i think we have a very heated political things and ahead of us will result in washington d.c. thank you thank you. well let's take a look at some other stories making news around the world russian opposition leader alexei navalny has posted another picture of himself recovering in hospital the caption of the photo he shared on the social media network instagram said his path to recovery was clear although long avani is being treated in a hospital after being poisoned with a nerve agent that's been used before against kremlin critics. the greek government says over 200 people have tested positive for corona virus at a new refugee shelter on the island of lesbos europe's largest refugee camp burned down earlier this month even as some 12000 people homeless the migration ministry

police barely seem to hesitate as they pack women into their trucks even 73 year old you know by his care was briefly detained her defiance of the authorities has made her and i can out of these protests overwhelmingly led by women. if you look i was going to it was scary at the beginning but then you get used to it what can you do and i'm more scared about living with the feeling that i did nothing when all this was happening in my country you know. the crackdown is getting harsher by the day and there's still little sign the riot police are deserving president alexander lukashenko who demonstrators say rigged the august 9th presidential. action. robot moving over what is democracy it's been the majority has voted for the president and. you know nobody voted for him.

women taking part in opposition rallies now not only have to fear for their safety but also that of their children i thirty's happened threatening to remove children from protester parents and warning that's only been fueling the anger on the streets. well europe is seeing a surge in new corona virus infections with many countries recording their highest rate since early in the pandemic germany's daily number of new infections exceeded 2200 a figure not seen since early april meanwhile france's rights are soaring well past its mark per day and in some parts of england new stricter measures have been introduced as infections rise to levels not seen since april with a possible 2nd lockdown looming there are in england protesters gathered in london to voice their opposition to vaccines social distancing measures and the requirement to wear masks in public many carried placards denying the existence of

the pandemic. well for more on this let's bring in our correspondent in london get my ass. there have been more than 4000 new corona virus infections in the u.k. and that's just in the past 24 hours what measures to deal with the surge in numbers are people in the u.k. expecting. well they are probably looking at the north of england and seeing that there for example hospitality bars restaurants they have to close early and people are really not to congregate in large numbers and to really stick to the social distancing measures soup people are looking at what's happening in that school the government's whack a mole strategy that the british government has try to impose local lock downs where they have seen flare ups particular flare ups of the virus however now it seems to be spreading so not just in the north of england the numbers are even in out across the whole country we've seen problems in scotland and also in other

parts of england so people are probably thinking that something like in the north of it is going to happen nationwide so the talks about strict stricter rules for put going out bars and restaurants might only allow tables to have it so that it's being prevented that people are too close to each other and i think probably most of the alcohol is concerned so they want to prevent people situations getting out of control and people getting too close to each other basically prime minister bars johnson said he's been warning about a 2nd wave for weeks now enough to prevent this rise in infections. well not only prime minister bird johnson has his eye on the 2nd away from ian experts across europe have been warning that's in and we are now approaching most of the schools are starting and people are returning to their workplaces the bar was. and this is exactly what has happened here in britain the people are looking

at the government and a lot of people are very very critical and polls show a lot of british people a majority are not happy how the government has handled the crisis and the expense of pointing out that not enough has been done in order to prevent this new surge and that for example the testing. passage. is not bad that should should be clear that it will be clear that once children go back to school and people go back to the office that people would want to have more test the right of tracking system has been a problem has lots of criticism for the british government. in london thank you. all of bahrain are the business leaders perennial champions for dortmund to are it's constant nearly man the runners up in 3 of the last 4 seasons hosted. in the late game on saturday also had a strong season last time out finishing up in the champions league spots which.

friends. come to the frightening burst and pass from the english born englishman a lovely dink from holland. was a fine start to the season for dog but it hasn't escaped the pessimists that they already like 5 goals behind by and after just one game i. mean every man knows that the child who has food can do. this. can. be coming from home that could have easily been us. any one of us who. played them.

the internet has revolutionized the way becomes you music sign up to a streaming service and you can listen to all your favorite tunes on the go wherever you are many artists have even begun playing shows in computer games or staging virtual concerts how is all this changing the music industry today on shift . almost $300000000.00 people stream music via spotify each month that gives the market leader

a detailed picture of uses listening habits today music lovers can also enjoy streaming music videos and concerts in their homes and on their mobile devices and these services are rapidly growing in popularity computer game developers i give you a platform to august as well and spring us rep of travis got to showcase the brand new trek live in fort myers a hugely popular multiplayer game. is the big moment given recent hip hop fans have been waiting for gunshy one virtual travis scott since it's a multiplayer gaming fortnights to perform live in for the more than 12000000 players the largest crowd ever to attend a virtual concert like this. the gaming and music industries and burgeoning crossover the tracks to target groups and one many games now feature cool soundtracks indie dance moves and virtual in game concerts zinah i'm just someone with.

streaming platform. like apple music these and spotify dominate the music market today raking in huge sums of money and only a tiny fraction of that goes to the artists on some platforms they earn less than $1.00 cent per stream to make a decent living they need hundreds of thousands of plays for example an artist would be $80000.00 plays on the napster streaming platform just to earn the u.s. national minimum wage roughly $1400.00 u.s. dollars 200000 players would be needed on apple music and over 300001 spotify and amazon. can musicians make a living like that it's tough but it's not all black and white either we met up with a german band who say despite the downsides there are benefits to spotify. and

may have been with folk pop. for 11 years their albums featured german english and arabic lyrics and have made it into german charts at 1st they didn't want them he is against. spotify definitely exploits musicians and it's you have an almost nothing through streams. it's not even enough for major artists to get by. making an album is a lot of work and costs a lot to record. it 1st we didn't really like the idea of making your music available for free and people are very. very. have played over here at winning and loyal fan base today their music is on spotify after all with success their latest single happy from the new album has already

been streamed half a 1000000 times about 250000 fans listen to their tunes each month users can discover your music on spotify even if you don't belong to a record label. and if you music gets streamed a lot and recommended to other people then you might feature a playlist that's what swayed their opinion some of them and work and. their current music is available on other streaming platforms too but 90 percent of their listeners come from spotify since signing up in 2015 hours music has been streamed about $25000000.00 times in $78.00 different countries streaming platform. meanwhile also changing the way artists create music. to keep them from us an overwhelming choice of music now if you get bored of the song you skip it's a good start the scourges artists from producing elaborate 10 minute tracks with 3 minute solos and long intros so yes and people are adapting to that. on

average songs have become shorter over the years in 2000 the u.s. top 100 singles tended to be over 4 minutes long but in 2018 the average length for just 3 and a half minutes why in part because of the 32nd rule applied by spotify and other streaming platforms it means only receive money if the song has been streamed half a minute or more this is changing how artists crafts songs long gone are the days when songs have long winded intros for example for more on that here's crisp of a blast of berlin school popular. going to my over one hits today follow with different formula from take justin bieber's love yourself the song jumps right in with lyrics from the get go. physical target and the listener knows exactly what the tracks about. the song time for an intro.

the 1st few bars of a song are crucial they determine whether the listener sticks with it also gets to the next the vast competition for music has given many listeners a short attention span and so the 1st 30 seconds. i need just 20 seconds to never listen to the whole song didn't have. the music industry started making money from streaming services in 2510 years later streaming pad phones were already making 2600000000 euros in revenue and since 2018 streaming has become the biggest source of income for the music industry last year it made up 50. 6 percent of global music revenue that's why artists are under pressure to make their music available online play lists are also a crucial part of these major streaming platforms if an artist is featured on one it can seriously boost their streaming figures and revenue but who curator these

play lists. popular music on spotify is promoted on playlists which drives up streaming thing is even further. algorithms define who makes it as an artist to. play lists only contain popular songs this is based on certain metrics. a song on the flop and a playlist of the more you can stream. but there are other play lists with a structure is more important songs are added in a way that it sheaves the rights musical art. companies have begun to help artists get those songs on to play them to market them like network now owned by sound cloud musicians are now less dependent on music labels but even more so uncertain algorithms. this is something that pop professor marcus klein i criticize this. fortunately these days producing music is less about creating and

more about calculation because our grievance calculate how many people like what and when they listen to. the it will music production is becoming much more of those numbers and less about cultivating a future for society because there. 'd is pop music no longer a revolutionary force well despite the criticism digitalisation is providing new scope for creativity like the video sharing app to talk to some artists even have a global hit song because of thick fog if their song features on one of the popular tick-tock challenger like film that's x. what all told local brown with the get up all of viral sensations. streaming services and social media platforms represent a great new way for fans and musicians to connect especially during times of social distancing. we have

a spring tour plugged up with $26.00 or $27.00 concerts on these acts or even something that like all bands was canceled because it's a shame because we just finished recording our latest album of it at the market and we were looking forward to going on tour with lights and. instead to make a horror as a band member staged a concert on a rooftop in cologne and live streamed it for all their fans unfortunately they had to burn then bandmates couldn't join them because of the knock down. the show most important that funds get to see bands in a live context even if it's online. so i believe in can you see it's all over social media right now. streaming is a great way for artists to stay present during lockdown james blunt recently streamed to show from hamburg's elbert philharmonic hall. and artists like benny eilish the rolling stones and green day's billie joe armstrong live stream

performances from their own homes for the one who will together at home charity event to on the health care work has. in addition to their live streaming the publish to music video made from 60 found videos filmed at home the clip has around 50000 hits on you tube. via. the i think a military only way to stay in touch with fans these days is by live streaming concert life. after thinking for the past gigs available online you know come. to will now take place in autumn this year provided not down. if not they'll just keep performing on 9. ok so digital platforms are great for musicians to connect with fans and for fans to stream as much music as they want whenever they

want but there's a catch companies are collecting vast quantities of personal data professor in the cauldron of the london school of economics explains more. the way we sat or jumped in front of our record player was unknown to the record companies they were blind to that now they're not the vision the market is today is a relation which is continuous as long as you are using the product the product will be tracking. companies constantly analyze our music listening behavior to keep us on platforms for as long as possible platforms like french streaming site. many users want to play they should in theory only hear music that they want to hear for the 1st we need to establish an ongoing relationship with them we have to learn what music to enjoy in a monday morning for example when it's not on a friday evening. some artists have launched exclusive online events like us

soul singer erykah badu one of my favorite artists who created an interactive concert series the idea is that fans pay a fee to watch and then have a say what happens like which song will be played next streaming has made it extremely easy for us to consume music but also harder for artists to make a living so it's on us to support musicians we care about for example by seeing their shots online or one day in real life. what do you think there's no neutral facebook and d w dot com that's it from us this week. the. small

charming colleague in kampala hi there sandra. nieto hello everybody as you've just had on today's program we want to take a closer look at just how much the idea of sustainable living is crushing on here in africa and how much more we can only do yes you and i to make a better was i am sundra to know you and he is what is coming up shortly. in senegal on music leaving the computer and gottlieb encouraging residents to make this new greener. we've been listening. to in lagos nigeria to talk about how people can be for certainly going to moving. on to finally in ghana when we find out how to get one people will find out about where he was born and. we start in a neighboring kenya grazing land becomes even there more and more messiah people are looking forward to the same me way of life having come. on to

a few are now starting to get they don't need lots of money for that and there are no money. lloyd the forest is a great place for wild bees to leave there are no fields or pesticides and very few people. the members of my site people who do live in the area traditionally collect wild honey in the forests and sarah barrios and dangerous activity but last year about corn and 14 other men went into the beekeeping business setting up 10 hives in the forest they don't take up much space and they are environmentally friendly. and. we get we get money and an income. and this helps to uplift. the life. like no

greater number of. young men yeah i want. their kid to school and getting him money. and. it has become very hard to make a living the traditional way and some in a magic pastoralist some asylum and still have as many as i thought of and heard of . but nowadays they are the exception more and more looking for other ways to make a living. a major reason is frequent periods of drought that means dried out pasture land and less for the cattle to eat and drink another reason is that the land where they graze their heads in strength it also has to be shared with wild animals. patrick property has been observing this development for years now he is himself

from outside and the local community official and has close ties to the people living here most still observe centuries old traditions but they are being forced to change in order to survive. biggest challenges the loss of blood loss of land easy and blood is going to be subdivided that would reduce the number of leicester which we rely on because that is the only thing that land can support very few. number 2 is the climate change grains that are predictable. you cannot plan you cannot invest because if you check that there is no clear for us. climate change and lots of a couple of 100 kilometers to the north east in nairobi these african beekeepers can only commercial company devoted to the development of the beekeeping and honey industry most of the 20 employees make cards for 2 beekeepers.

the only runs the from his skin to see honey production in kenya grow. untreated 80 percent of the honey consumed in the country is imported from tanzania wanted to take time to build up a network of suppliers and marketing china has more people need to go into beekeeping. biggest challenge is getting enough money we can't get enough and that's the challenge because the market is that it's not the show market it's the challenge is getting enough and this more amount of time is so far produced and is not sent to my dog it is sold in nearby villages but if production is carried out and if movie keeping project size time just for the future of the industry in kenya might prove to be sweet. well before we get into more examples of sustainable living we thought it would be good to get

a better sense of what sustainable living outside in means here in africa i think you can help us with that. indeed i can sound and in order to find out more about what factors fully evolve and how sustainable our continent's communities can be i measure with identity i can share most of the green institute here in lagos finally we get to see how you don't just need to as we talk about this my so sustainable living and sometimes i wonder how many people where or even understand the idea of sustainability itself. let me give an example like well i'm a lecturer and when i was teaching my students about 400 a few times. and i simply asked a question like what does that mean. and you were looking at me like you know you know. what are you talking about so i just give you

a very simple example of. your right and vice. what do you think that he said some will say oh i'm just writing by sue well basically it's for poor people it's not necessarily it paul might be so think about bicycle as a means of your transport as yourself would be a campers by daddy doing or you could be fits in oh yes i mean cost of i think the kicking up that so that suits a school you know and is saving money so it's a win win situation and that's going to start thinking and the nicer than that you're going green is that when we situation is adults in the skews the attributes that it's necessary in also money get resources that we can have a habitable planets and achieve ship prosperity a lot of people still don't understand what it means to drive with the environment in mind to leave would be environment by dissolute so trash everywhere how do we get the people to buy the most simple in the country at the bottom of the crowd was so trying to get food access to clean water security what it wants and what we're

looking at see you being on the on the top of the pyramid actualization so do people have access. the cream water who have access to basic needs is way of excess of this and they start thinking of ok my environment so forced we have to stop with the basic needs you know is. ok and the 2nd we have to take it from the grassroots from elementary school and that's like the mild musician we're from like the grandkids so this is a club suit promotes nasa social responsibility they go home and they tell mommy and daddy and under their wind i'm doing 2 and true you know someone to try sometime the kids was like new mom you can't do that a country that's you know is against you know. your debts in the area of making developments let's clean so you know those little kids they'll go home until the appearance and the principal flexion and say ok you know i want to be the change but what do you think it would be even thinking of taking who we need to start looking at the youths and we start giving them reason if senseis by sense is

a must see them one where you have to let them see that ok you know what you can be an intrapreneur you can do stuff like kids that are making plastics using it for 'd maybe like oil production isn't it for putin things they're making money they can they can sell those bricks and then they make money from meats. are taken off the grid non-biodegradable costs from the environment and socially down when he is also helping the local economy nigeria africa and the rest of the world coming together to assist in the beginning you see any synergy or are we having people pouring in instead of coming together we're all on this one globe so whatever happens in china is going to get to nigeria and we've just learned from that so it's it's a collaborative effort is a shared vision we haul up to come together thank you so yeah this blog. is art. we had to send a go now to meet some more individuals dedicated to helping the plot and n.g.o.s

greening the suburbs of the capital the car by planting trees and more importantly they've drawn the local residents into the project that's crucial because it's only once people have discovered the benefits of trees that they can protect and take care of their. planting trees is now a days some days favorite activity. she and a group of volunteers want to make this sandy parking lot on the outskirts of the car more has special. yes i think though i'm planting a salmon and some on you know it's a shame tree that can grow up to 20 years. but that's. a large square full of shady trees a place to hold celebrations and festivals somewhere to meet the neighbors that's the vision of a local n.g.o.s managed to win over the local residents. living on

a manly but i do love the most important people need greenery. and as i see it those who respect the environment respect themselves i don't suppose so we must do what we can to combat desertification by planting trees like all over the city. but it's not enough to just planted trees you need to nurture them as well day after day. it's imperative to involve the local population that's what guarantees the survival of the trees. the n.g.o.'s actually took its name from a tree in a bed a is the word former in the wall of language it's a versatile tree its leaves and food can be eaten or used for medicinal purposes.

scientists have proven that trees bring rain by contributing to. a trigger precipitation in the clouds more trees mean more rain and the more we cut down the less rain there is. that what they say deserts advance but they don't it's humans that make it possible things must change we must plant. big cities are growing as a graph taking speed in senegal. in the past 60 years the country has lost around hof of its forests to urbanization. tens of thousands of hectares of woodlands continue to be destroyed every year. yet in fact this one that there's a lot of pressure on urban centers the population is rising there's more construction and fewer green spaces and trees we're neglecting nature and that's why desertification is growing worse in our country. the result sure sure nature and

more irregular wet season in the past the rain began in june and lasted 3 months now and things have changed. everyone knows the trees are useful but we don't give ourselves the means to plant them as a result with operation 1000000 trees and what we're doing in the neighborhood we are introducing people to the importance of trees the importance of greenery and one day these trees will provide much needed shade offering city dwellers. despite from the burning sun having planted 750000 trees last year nobody is aiming for a 1000000 in 2021 way to gauge how well we are doing when it comes to sustainable living is by looking at the health of wildlife populations penguin colonies in south africa suffering as a result of overfishing in their habitat to the point of putting them on the path to extinction down there are plans to alert them to other regions where there's

plenty of fish for them to hunt how find out in this week's doing. african penguins inhabit just a few select locations among the coasts of namibia and south africa in recent decades their population has plummeted due to human interference ranging from people stealing their eggs to fishing fleets depriving them of their primary source of food. conservationists hatched a cunning plan to lure the penguins to better fishing grounds on the coast of south africa's to hope nature reserves are disproved darling creates decoys out of cement they were intended to trick the birds into thinking there are already penguin settled here. when we went inside to install them we also had to look at the site from many different angles and time visualize the wiping winds and

the wiping will think the idea is to entice the endangered birds to start new breeding colonies one of the biggest challenges we faced is that no one's ever done this before for the african penguin so we've had to learn a lot so as we go along the project organizers hope that penguins will take the plunge and relocate. and how about you if you are also doing your tell us about visit our website or send us a tweet. hash tag doing your bit. we share your story. those decoys looks so real i wonder how many penguins have been persuaded to set on their by after seeing them we probably could all use a little not being here and again to open our eyes to new approaches it's not so

sandra. yes i suppose it is near to it specially when it comes to science trainability we tend to be creatures of habit and much of our consumer behavior is best on years of conditioning but that's when nothing comes in it is a practice the tries to gently and tries consumers to make certain choices some of which can be good for the planet. got a form and if you walk through here and then you have to turn towards the stand it will be better if you could walk straight to it. and it should be at an angle. is advice in the manager of this supermarket in berlin on ways to draw shoppers attention to regional organic products and. this is a bit better so you come along here and see it immediately and now if we just had something like a small poster or something from brandenburg from the countryside perhaps

a piece of wood. or. the manager is not yet convinced mathias still wants to try out various things regional organic products also tend to be more eco friendly europeans buy lots of imported goods bananas coffee chocolate with a much larger c o 2 footprint. many people know that regional products are more sustainable but that doesn't necessarily lead to a change in the way they shop things on wants to suddenly encourage consumers to think twice the approach she deploys is known as nudging. basically it's about positioning products in a way that people will be more likely to pick them up. who studied social sciences wrote the 1st academic paper in germany on. could it be considered manipulation. because that's a charge that one often hears but the difference between nudging and manipulation

is that nudging is used for positive purposes. take meat consumption for example in ecological terms it's much too high what kind of know might make a difference here placing vegetarian sausages right next to me the ones. people who are already environmentally conscious go looking for products that are organic and regional and they'll buy them a. the way nudging is meant to reach those who don't pay attention to those kinds of things. now shoppers here will come face to face with vegetarian alternatives to meet this is an easy nudge it's evidently hard to redirect attention to an entire display is looking for some good props i may have an advantage of this i'd like it to be larger more eye catching so you get the message at once organic and regional be overselling and i think long. they explore the store room but don't find anything particularly appealing to use as decoration. talk about what else could we

do. these are heads out doors to scavenge branches will certainly develop nature even in a supermarket he says there are many ways to nudge people to act in a more eco friendly way. so my fear for example if you could see how much water you use when you take a shower and how many daily rations of water that amounts to for people affected by drought it would be pretty shocking but i know that's an extreme example but the idea is to grab your attention and make you think about doing things differently. crazy has come up with another way to not shoppers at the supermarket to consider eco friendly products. fish from floor hours of birdsong. this doesn't have an immediate effect the customers just walk by. knows all

too well that a good nudge is not something you can pull out of thin air. well buying growing produce is definitely a good way to reduce the strain on our environment here in africa outdoor markets help timing tradition help ever an increasing number of factory made goods also soared shops on the market and as we know things like aren't usually packaged in plastic. that's very true sondra and if we don't watch out a lot of those packaging and other wastes end up in streets and the parks getting into the habit of proper whiz disposal constant soon enough and that's why one gun and school has made environmentalists studies part of its curriculum. saying. that both lead to educate once a week at cut about be doing a high school the kids have
