the young people clearly had the solutions, the future 77 percent now, every weekend on the w ah, the welcome to global 3000. life begins at 70. we find out why many older people in japan shunning the idea of retirement waste disposal in south africa. we learn how a small start up is moving mountains when it comes to recycling. first we go to the rain forests of brazil, way illegal. gold mining leads to deforestation and the destruction of natural

habitats. gold is one of the most valuable, precious metals on us, and also one of the most desirable where there is jewelry. as a commodity, where is an investment, the gold price has been rising for years. it's seen as a safe asset during periods of economic come certainty, like now with the corona virus pandemic. recently the gold price hit $1500.00 euros for troy amps. but how much gold is that on our planet? the world gold council estimates that the total amount of mind gold would fill a cube with nearly 22 meter long sides. almost half of it has been turned into jewelry. 22 percent is private investments well, 17 percentage held by central banks. the remainder is found in electronic devices like small savings. it's not known exactly how much gold is still in the us. they

one thing is mining it is becoming an increasingly complex task. most consonants can boast large scale goal deposits, including south america. in brazil, gold mining is having a devastating impact on both the rain forests and the people the sheaves. despite the pandemic and rainy season downpours, he's out serving his territory more and more often he comes across, illegal gold mining ross. they cruise probably chiefs is simply notes the location that police water, mostly, and drinkable now leave as a film on it. and the mercury they use sinks to the river that we consume it through the fish we when it makes us sick. fish sandwich brokerage that

is territory, is this forest protected. make sure the illegal loggers and coal mine is increasingly encroach on the moon during indigenous peoples land. don't care about that. keeps roaring suspects. it's because the price of gold has shut up during the pandemic intruders. have kept this new path through the jungle. they start by logging the valuable trees, then they plow up. the soil looking for gold. chief suarez is worried is edge of us and it's dangerous for us. because damage means we're forced to take over the work of the environmental police and all 5, even though it puts our lives at risk of a candle, he could, you know, gold prospectors on their far away. some prospect leads to the outside the nature

of others invade indigenous territory because there are hardly any patrols there at the moment in shapes whereas the village, the moon during to maintain their culture and traditions. oh, send knives revolve around with the essay is done for centuries. but they also maintain ties with the rest of the own cell phones have the public schools and are in regular contact with environmental organizations. the moon, during so far, was still the appeal of the gold rush. unlike most of the people in the region, li will read in the city all the gold mine of the rent on the game. they will send

the, the man, legal counselors, and even the senate body. that's what makes them so powerful not stems from but if it working by the mayor is also a lager and a gold mine. and then as we leave the village, we pause more gold, mining ross, and some reckoning. a dam is scheduled to be built in another threat to the indigenous ways. last 3 hours. the longer with andrena, different provincial capital tube have been the center of the gold rush for 50 years, its thriving. despite the pandemic prosperity based on the high price of gold, it has to be made sense. that's why there's hardly any unemployment here. despite the corona virus crisis, he's currently doing his official work from home privacy. he runs

a network of companies including gold mines color. thank you. have a lot of scenario. government has to regulate our goal of mine, so people don't have to work illegally anymore. all these cars are only legal mines can be property regulated. my saw my both in that anything else drive the miners and i legality with no. right? sure. you can't go on like a football. but the may is says the mercury pollution isn't a serious problem. you know, so got in there. all of this. i've been mining goals since i was 18 a month he traced on that are covered 3 tons of gold. since then not the mercury is never effected me in all that time. no, of course you admitted that and there's no technology which could replace the use of mercury or that you're in the country. capital resilience president. your vote to nora is the main support to best gold mine. he

reassured one delegation that he was working to allow mining even in indigenous territories. he's already drastically paid back environmental policing and penalties. west clay to mice was a delegation member, has been lobbying to legalize the gold mines for years. thousands of them are about to be licensed retrospectively for now. only those outside protected indigenous territories. west clay to myess says its progress. follow with my sure. narrow talks a load of rubbish. but he also does some good thing quite. we visited him 7 times and brazilian will soon see a load of gold mines legalize that laughed. this is ready to get it. he says that some pictures of his license, gold mines outside protected areas and says, the gaps they left in the jungle will be reforest. it

teach flores has his doubts about that right now he's tracking some intruders. the path is marked by so enough branches ah, they arrive at a tree trunk flowing across the channel. the patrol can't get any further with the boat. the size daysia are a lot of them, but we won't make it all the way. and we're running short of feel as well. you know, i'm not going to ship them a vague book. it's an age old story. nature's guardians are numbered by better equipped invaders is awesome, so that's our territory. if we stop patrolling altogether and relied only on the state, we'd soon lose the entire area to the criminals. some of the criminals who seem to

have gained the upper hand. 2 aided by the pandemic, the 2 children, to one giant problem me in the pursuit inviting a new jersey now will climate change affect us and our children? learn more at d, w dot com slash water. now this leaking global ideas, we go to south africa, a country like many others plagued by trash. waste separation is read that over 90 percent of general waste ends up in a landfill site. that's something the top regina eyes wants to change its on a mission to get the country recycling reports. julia yaki mess up with the

visionary waste marshall of our incense sorting and packing up our waste plastic from the past week in time for a special pickup service. recycling household trash is still the exception here in cape town. washing byron's only started separating your paper and plastic recently as part of a pilot project. and they realize, you know how bad things was until i started saving plastic. i have never, never thought about it, but i'm so glad to be doing my post. and every little bit counts currently just 7 and a half percent of south africans recycle their waste. the result is mountains of plastic and other refuse across the country.

until now the only form of household waste recycling here was done by informal wasted collectors. chad robertson decided to take action right there. we got a lot of illegal dumping quite a big issue and kept on quoting for some stuff around spending on 400000000 or and a year on a legal dumping and getting it up. we, as you know, we produce sitting in money on rather creating solutions to solve this problem right beyond the landfill. there's no dumping shine it's actually not really, i don't if it goes at most dumping sites you will see, you know, dumping sun. so it's quite an old saying kept on in china. robertson wants to encourage cape towners to bring about change. his regina start up is primarily aimed at people from the poorest parts of the city. south

africa is a very unequal society and that extends to waste disposal. if you're in a low income community, for example, there's really nothing available for you. besides the info more conflict because we collected recyclables because the private companies we didn't operate there, nor with the free service operate the as i mentioned, that's on the in the upper income communities. regina eyes, which he founded to help resolve keep towns. waste problem is located in the bridge town suburb in the east of the city. in 2018, the startup launched a pilot project here tailored to the needs of lower income areas learns i'm a fool, may begin their shift at the collection point. while one starts sifting through and sorting the items from the past week, the other sets off on his cargo tract. see them or who may, does

a tour of the neighborhood once a week? yes. yes. the services a new one for the residence of bridge down. see them who may collect paper, plastic and cans from participants. meanwhile, 500 households are taken guard. today. he'll stop by 150 homes. he makes a careful note of how much each sack weighs. his strikes. cargo gauge fills up quickly. residents involved in the pilot project aren't charged for the pickup service. to the contrary. participants all receive a fixed, some in re molly, for each waste to pick up. re molly is a virtual currency that can be saved up and then spent on shopping vouchers by

a phone, data packages and donations. thank you so much. oh, i need to buy dog food, so this and go do the dog food. when. so stephen, who makes his way back to the depot, the project provides jobs for people who used to be informal, trash collectors and unemployed young people like to see the my room in the me his colleagues bring the sordid re usable materials to a recycling plant where the waste is turned into a new resource regina, his efforts have won a national social innovation award. though support from the local authorities has been sluggish, especially when it comes to creating the infrastructure for more collection points . but chad robertson and his team are undeterred. mm.

we are still pushing the optimism, thomas. there are small things, you know, seeing the impact that it makes seeing positive reviews from customers and being able to grow the business as well. the vision is to really scale our service to our cape dundas africa, the recycling model. and get people not introduced cycle but living was circular or show up byron is a convert. she's happy about the vouchers, but even happy or that she's now doing something about the waste problem. people will come to realize that we all need to do something to make the change be the change you want to see be the change and i'm glad that i got thoughts of late in life. but i got thought that there are the late the regina as team are

hoping that the government will also increase in support. so that recycling consumer come available to all south africans. isn't even renowned for many local delicacy. we headed that for this week's label, smack indonesia is the world's most populous country. more than 300 ethnic groups live here, which makes for a rich and diverse cuisine. live in total market in the capital, jakarta offers a wide range of traditional foods. it's where mister mums, you are, makes his k lactaid on a hearty dish. that's a specialty of the baton people. the one i started showing kara taylor here in 1980 read up on the rice is the 1st ingredient. the rice is allowed to soak overnight so

that it cooks more quickly. other ingredients are coconut shrimp flour, fried charlotte ground pepper and shredded coconut. then come the eggs. customers can choose 2 chicken eggs or one duck egg. then the pan is turn over, the charcoal fire that helps give the tailor its special flavor. in the end it's tuft with 2 spoons of spiced shredded coconut and a spoon of roasted challenz. ah, that i really like it because it's very delicious. i've always like character, hello, antic, battelle, we food and i'm baton li. before the pandemic, mister monday or used to serve up about 50 portions

a day. now with just 30 or 480-0000 rubia, the equivalent of one euro will get to a portion made with a duck egg with chicken eggs. it's even a little cheaper prices in the character hello. here are very flavorful because it's not like the character hello made and other places where the seasoning is a bit careless. this character lower is especially delicious. mister monday or also filled his character as a takeaway dish. don't up the t or mark on the healthy diet. that's one way to stay fit into old age. according to the you and there are more than 500000 centenarians on the planet. a retros and the number of people over 65 is set to double by 2050. we had to a country with

a particularly large percentage of elderly people, japan, and many of them have no intention of taking it easy. in their old age he kept the enjoying his retirements. rule to yo kiana is 70 a sprightly member of what japan calls the silver generation. depends population is aging, so the country is putting pensioners back to work to you, yet. i used to be a c ship. now he proved trees. i enjoy the work and it keeps me fit. plus it's a welcome money on the side, we do get a pension but not a big one. and so i really do need to work with a lot here in coaching prefecture, more than a 3rd of the population over 65,

in the regional capital, many shops and businesses associated with the aging populations. there's no one to take over and keep them going. so yuki yadda used to run his own restaurant, but the number of dine is started dwindling 10 years ago. now he's traded in his sushi knife for a chain. so i and things are looking up. he's self employed again, but now ends with far more lucrative, 20 years in our though the quality gardening, the train, young people not far from here. no call nothing that's good because someone i know started learning how to prune trees, but then quit all that before. i asked why, and he said he didn't enjoy it. probably because it meant working with so many old people to say the house that the garden belongs to is vacant. the original

residents are probably deceased or in the retirement home. the family pays for the upkeep. the owners are gone, but the garden continues to flourish, you know, year ago. oh, that's the fishmonger. he's always driving past year, and it always gives me a scare. it's almost enough to make me fall off the ladder. they did that. i thought i like me could. she is beautiful, but aging, it's home to depends all the time system dating back to 904 and rather fittingly the traffic is directed by seniors. the old red light district is out of business. the not hotel now lies in ruins. in the city of co, none. it's back to school in what's called the center for so the human resources is somewhat sterile named for a job agency serving retirees. so the tree pruning is told by mister

hammer, who is a c one, along with training the center also helps with job placements and takes care of the tax and insurance side. you are one of hundreds across the country, all funded by the authorities. the elderly recruits emerge as bus drivers, parking lot attendance, and even godness. little boring. wow. no, i didn't know the, the older generation have to pitch in life would otherwise come to a stand still due to the departure of the younger population. the expectations are really high. but with us they can work without any pressure and contribute something to their region. within right outside the center is a wooded park where the budding gardeners can get some practical training. these 9 trainees, or between 61 and 78 years old. mister cars, ocoee the oldest of the group used to be

a cooking hospital. so the main thing is i get some exercise and stay healthy. everyone needs money and i only get my pension every 2 months. when you know much and it's getting smaller, where does all that money go? i guess that's a political issue again from that date i say that you know? oh yeah, madame, the former sushi chef also graduated from the silver generation center. he then spent 6 years learning on the job as a volunteer, holding his patients and precision the same skills he brought to the sushi business . but the but, but the we'll get with you don't simply cut off what's on top. you started, the root will look in there. if you only trim the top of the obama yoke, it would look rather odd and a couple times. mother, my mr. young has mastered the art and now trains. other thing is mr. august.

salanda is 78 and is revelling and the new challenge was i got him all been moving meadows. fancy trying a tree pruning. i don't have my own to semester. yeah. mother provides them. he's teaching me so much and he's a really nice person. he misses jamini has also joined her husband's new enterprise. she's on the books of the silver generation agency as a cleaner. but when her husband's work becomes too much, she lends a hand for a wage. but i work together with my husband. so and when we've hiding something up, when i feel happier right away with customers also thank me that the results are so lovely. get a 2nd and it makes me happy with them on the so get another work day draw to close. mr. yamida could have borrowed tools from the job agency,

but insisted on having his own, just as he did as a sushi chef. but they will always been a stell ger for the old days. what i'm on, there's only old people here these days. you hardly ever hear children now, and there are lots of vacant homes for an hour neighborhood. people get old and die, but their sons and daughters don't want the houses. they call them all, i don't know. i got an ear no plans to keep pruning for another 10 years when he'll be a t. it's a job with a future. japan maybe aging, but the trees continue to grow. ah, that's from us, that level 3000 and this week and thanks for watching. what did you enjoy about this week? so let us know at global 3000 and d, w.
