hospitals the oxygen supply has run out. that the people who might have survived the disease are dying as a result. there's no oxygen in all of town. my mother was admitted 3 days ago i was told she was fine and recovering all the tests were done then last night they said they didn't have any more oxygen she passed away. from. hospitals an i.c.u. units across the country are overwhelmed after weeks of a sharp rise in cases the health care system is collapsing. oxygen has become the most precious of commodities. i'm buying or to going to put it toward your order of the future who come to that level. they are lowering the oxygen level one. but it needs to be higher. so this is the

problem. with oxygen and hospital beds running out the government is scrambling to get equipment to the areas that are hardest hit. we have come to stocks and that's moving across the country using the country. to get it to the places that need it the most emergency supplies from the u.k. have begun arriving and more help as promised from abroad to be getting it after the final details have been clarified with the indian side the 1st shipment should be on its way in the next few days. but in the meantime many indians are left to fend for themselves. doing all they can to care for loved ones some dry for hours in search of oxygen. i have come from very far to collect oxygen from my father. i'm scared that although the oxygen is available today what

forward we thought election rallies being held that turned into super spreader events so this was really a catastrophe in the making that could have been avoided right now people are dying because they can't access the basics whether it's medical oxygen or a hospital bed so the ability to ramp up act immediately is really critical to save lives today and tomorrow so the more supplies that we can and the more capacity that we can help to support is what the world needs to be doing at the same time the way we're going to turn the corner over the several weeks from now is really to make sure we're reducing the infection rate and taking real public health measures to try to bring down. the amazing spike that we've been that we've seen in cases over the last several we. here's a glimmer of hope for the live music industry seen as europe's biggest indoor rock concert since the start of the pandemic the event in spain took place with 5000

be for the prime minister. for a lot of people these remarks alleged remarks by the prime minister would have been in bad taste but there is is really there are many accusations against prime minister burrs johnson that he has acted in a nontransparent way when it comes for example to the refurbishment office flat to his former closest ally really the his advisor dominic cummings who was the mastermind behind a break said come pain and really it's also the reason that johnson is even prime minister he was such a close and trusted aide he has now turned against the prime minister and said that he has possibly acted illegally but also on ethically in accepting. donations for his refurbishment of the flat in downing street that is what he alleges now the government says that everything will be paid back but of course the

thinks it's senseless. but. there was nothing here before we took an effort to make all this ever built this is a fool the one most of all not at all. the radiation is measured the strawberries are safe to eat but selling them outside the region is difficult as the area's reputation is also contaminated. there's no hiding what happened here rows and rows of storing contaminated radioactive material. before leaving the exclusion zone sets a key tunnies radiation must be measured. residents here will live this way for decades to come but. still tiny defies the naysayers who dismiss her as the crazy cow lady for. this i know you're from there are a few truths about me. i'm a newcomer i'm a young foolish and i'm

same as it once world's. prostitution is a global phenomenon if banned in a country. it simply goes underground if it's emitted it's just more visible it's hard to know how many sex workers there are worldwide estimates range between $13000000.14 sex work usually takes place on the edge of the law the united nations says more than half of all global human trafficking is related to it many women and girls allege into sexual slavery with false promises of a better life. this is the red light district of sangli in southwestern india sex workers here have up to 60 customers a night. in this region an old hindu religious practice is still widespread the devil the system young girls are offered in marriage to

a daisy and then his servants are forced to offer sexual services. even on what i do is wrong but i don't have a choice. every morning shop nonpaying to rangoli in front of her premises. supposed to bring wealth and good fortune. she spends much of her time in the 7 square metres she's been a sex worker here since she was a teenager. that if i left the system we would start of so i have to continue to see clubs i don't have any education and so the most i could earn in a regular job would be about one euro a day. how could we get by on that it's nothing shabnam doesn't know how old she is about 30 she says she has 2 daughters but doesn't know who their fathers are suffering under a roof. shabnam doesn't remember when she became

a devotee the system was outlawed 36 years ago but the bomb is not enforced i'm told about 300000 sangley we are going to have a diocese used to perform important religious toss in temples and enjoy the high social status nowadays it's very different it almost always means a life of prostitution at the margins of society it. the last remnant of the system's former meaning a small shrine. the temple where shabnam was inducted as far away as are her parents she still supports them with a large part of her meager earnings it's a cruel system that oppresses women shop radha tells me about as she's a devil as well as a temple priest knowing that. when we started to serve tea we came here and ended up as prostitutes we've never liked having sex with clients but at least our parents are doing well and have something to eat by then and then when. shabnam

listens closely talks about her life and their family. how do you feel when you hear her saying all that. it makes me sad i'm in the same situation. that shop naaman are i'm still support their families even though it was they who are to blame for their plight. shop now ms determined to see to it that her daughters will one day lead a better life. day she goes home to cook lunch for her children she lets me come along and. i'm surprised to find a mom there. no matter. what what's her name. your name or what you write your ok my name all over. raja shop noms

boyfriend they've been together for a year he was one of her clients now he wants her to stop being a sex worker. she should get out of the devil the system i want her to i can earn the money and look after her. she can run the household and i'll do the rest if she's happy i'm happy so what bungalow to look at you know. shabnam does not share roger's vision of their future together as a happy family. but i love whatever and. it's all well and good that he wants me to give up prostitution and being a devotee. but he will look after my mother or ensure the future of my children how much money could he save and give them. 20 euros a month won't be enough if i'm to marry off my daughters. one positive aspect of their lives is the school which shabnam on her daughters all

attend school for sex workers and their families. it was set up a few years ago by deepak chopra on our colleague. they teach reading and writing to adults and children several times a week for free yet. the women here may have been betrayed by their parents but they clearly want their children to lead happier and more fulfilled lives. there. then. the sex workers have spent their entire lives here we want to change that for their sons and daughters. they should be successful and when they're big be able to look after their mothers. that's what sapna is determined to do she also has a future mapped out. that. i want to be a doctor when i grow up. but for now

life remains tough and brutal many women start work as the sun goes down in the red light district. if you can get somebody you have an opportunity to film here at night that we're going to hide our camera so the customers don't see it let's see what happens on my bus that i was on. about $5000.00 men come here each day the price of sex is $2.00 euro's 50 that's a lot more than the women could aren't in another job as a result they're left trapped in sex work. we humans take up a lot of space on our planet filling it with industrial areas highways houses shopping malls each year in germany alone an area the size of almost 80 football fields is turned into construction sites for housing and transport modern farming

to with its monoculture has dominates rural areas truly wild areas irreverent rarer yet desperately important for plants and animals. pristine nature wide open spaces and. heavy artillery. this area in grafton ville was a very unliterary training area more than a century ago now it's run by the u.s. army it covers almost 230 square kilometers. the terrain is a kind of noah's ark living alongside 12000 soldiers all representatives of 3000 species of animal and plant more than 800 of them are endangered. it's an apt to mention humans practiced killing in the training grounds really leave while for nature this is pure life it sounds paradoxical is it. but all the

areas in between are just pulsating would like that because here nobody is by using nature and digging the know today can feel. good in light of the works for the very nature conservation organization when new buildings are planned he's often called in to identify bird species at potential risk. splits isn't the i incident launch of military training areas are the only large tracts of countryside apart from national parks there are no pesticides are used most people don't realize that our farm land is sprayed several times a year with highly toxic substances. and they kill off most of the small organisms . wild meadow flowers and insects but the get through that. litle spot something like the z. all look a white tailed eagles it's got some prey and invite all the court all ravens are over there to see it. the white tailed eagle is an apex predator at the top

of its food chain its fish and other fish eating them. for pets now live here that's great news for conservationists. another valuable feature of confidante of the wide expanse of open to right. there aren't many such areas left 7000 did gracie and that may prevent any forest from emerging but this kind of landscape is home to animals and birds that don't thrive among trees. such as sky no. this can be a noisy place but the animals don't mind says who but on top of germany's federal forests administration. we hear shooting in the background all the time we might find it unpleasant you can't ask the animals but our observations suggest they

don't react to the noise so you know he's we see no evidence that they do we often see a deer near or right on the shooting ranges on land where shells could land. and they just don't flinch when it gets really loud you see the same with the eagles neither the shooting nor the drones bother them so the drones motors have made a very. on pleasant high pitch sound if you were an organism and was. you know belly toads like this one also seem relaxed they spawn in the deep tracks in the mud made by all the heavy vehicles. when the babies grow up they'll spend the rest of their lives on land. the unseen is this is pretty much in eldorado for amphibians creatures that need both water and land. instead lots of places to live in water meadows along the rivers

steamin until the rivers are straight out now the habitats are mainly in military training areas quarries it's an order in a polish state but what about the spent munition lying around that contains traces of heavy metals the us army garrison environmental division checks for pollution across the base stefan hassel is one of its employees on the outs nickel man these are many times that extended here is a system in place to monitor the impact of munition residues on the train on them it was developed in cooperation with the bavarian authorities samples are regularly taken from streams spawns underground water across the training area of music in the on the there analyzed and the results go to the district administration of the under state water authority because you see on the reason i gave you see so people they evaluate the findings and take action if required naaman. before humans

intervened much of europe was covered in trees. forest fires were common phenomena. it was quite normal and a lightning strike or during a hot summer would might catch far so good. now a days firefighters rushed to the scene and put it all out but here if a shell hits and trees go up in flames nobody comes and extinguishes the fire straight away. that's often not possible. so we have extensive forest fires just as they would occur in a natural landscape yes it is as well it just an expert on beetles in the traps he set up he's found species that actually need trees to burn in order to survive. elsewhere they are rare.

it seems that the military doesn't have to be the enemy of nature. and virt is the largest u.s. training area outside the united states and also a treasure trove of nature. 'd 'd in this week's global idea as we look at a problem well known to city dwellers around the world the seemingly endless traffic of rush hour. in colombia's capital budgets people are finding creative ways out of the jams a boon for both residents and the planet. well good time is a big dirty and noisy city air pollution kills about 2000 people here every year the air quality in the colombian capital is often so bad that environmental state of emergency has to be declared. greenhouse gas emissions linked to the transporting of goods by road contribute significantly to the problem but that is

sent to change. in part thanks to people such as daniel sanchez he used to be part of the problem now he's part of the solution a pioneer of change on the streets of bogota. i used to drive a truck there were always 2 of us. everything took a long time because the job was and having to look for a place to park. was really tiring. now he drives an electric delivery try cicle this is the cross docking station at the edge of the city center goods are transferred here from large trucks to the small he go from the vehicles for delivery into downtown. the project was launched by the municipality since last year the green alliance has headed the city government for the 1st time. what

a comedy this young also said that i thought that i thought it was transporters responsible for about 79 percent of particularly the missions here. and 39 percent of that amount results from transporting goods by road. by switching to these new vehicles we can cut emissions by 16 metric tons a day when it so the impact will be huge for. the world bank has made $300000.00 available to the project. it's still early days. during the current pilot phase the fleet of small electric delivery vehicles numbers just 15. they're the work of a startup in marrying. but the model of design for that city needs to be adapted to conditions in bogota. he says you're going why don't you think logistics are very different from. retailers aren't concentrated in one district just this

is covered are much larger that so the wear and tear on the electric components is greater. out of the need to innovate and start working on improving the motor and the battery so we can provide the companies in the project but an efficient solution to. the lola cargo try sickles can carry one cubic meter of goods that's about 18th the volume of a standard delivery truck daniel sanchez's destinations today are small shops and pharmacies. he works on commission so for him time is money and he zips from one customer to the next. he maneuvers his electric bike through traffic jams. he's glad to be rid of his truck. one of but i love my own traffic it's just the best thing about a boat i can go bike lanes and sidewalks anywhere and i can take shortcuts when.

i can get to any point really fast the moment it's much better than before. not being stuck in traffic not having to look for a parking place makes delivering goods more efficient. several companies have signed up to the project they not only want to cut their harmful emissions but also sink time and money doing so. new trade is a major manufacturer of processed and convenience foods it's an ideal candidate for taking part in the pilot phase of the project in colombia most of its products are sold in small corner shops and by street vendors. it below. the pilot phase has been running for just one month but the results are already very significant and very positive i think 6 other companies in the city have also joined the project and i hope many more will to. be using sustainable methods of

transport has many advantages. for people's quality of life the environment and the development of open logistics. it's too soon to evaluate the pilot project as a whole but danielle sanchez for one hopes it will prove a success and set a precedent he says his work days are 3rd shorter now and his earnings higher he also enjoys the attention passers by are fascinated. what are the real emotions about people ask me is that your bike. and i say sadly no it's not. a charity they find it really cool and think it's a good idea no exhaust nothing that harms the environment. feel i'm promoting change because. he still takes the bus home but he's saving up to

buy a good bike and then he will contribute even more to the greening of bogo time. that's all from us at global 3000 this week thanks for joining us and do send us your thoughts on the program write to global 3000 at d w dot com and visit our facebook page to d.w. global ideas see you next week take cabs.
