that's barely enough to live on as it is. sure. in the soviet era, the village of meter and sky had serv cause a large scale state owned farm. with accounting factory. not only was the state and church of agricultural production, it was also responsible for the basic purification of the water, the long time residents recall then the soviet union collapsed and with it, the old purification system. eventually released them. they used to be large tanks along the road out of town where the river water was processed before it was led into the village of whom was going to. but then new rulers came. everything was looted and ever sent them into little valley. ever since these tanks have been crumbling and they're no longer able to clean the water from the river. according to a report by the state environmental protection agency,

some of the trends keys, water means i know up to 90 percent clubs with silt from the river. once more, the water from the combined river is known to be polluted. environmentalists are demanding urgent action to remove bacteria and chemicals from the water. require is about water quality in the region and measures taken to purify it. met with no response from the local authorities. and so it seems to be a risky villagers do indeed have no other choice, but to use the dirty brown water will be only sometimes when the water looks a bit cleaner. i put white laundry in it, but it all comes out dirty. that's that you might as well throw the clothes away, which were given away. once again, the top portion was so browned, the van revoke, and decided to play himself inexpensive. 5 liter bottle of clean drinking water at the village store. but this water russian will have to last

a few days and the van republican has to, which is die, it carefully look at the i have to be careful not to eat too much harring. that would make me so thirsty. i'd have to drink the dirty water from the river, but now i'm pretty much toughened up against it. as long as it's called, our new customers and russia can be hard me to risky will lead a lot of water. and what it gets from the co bind isn't fit for human consumption. the summer holidays are just around the corner here in europe and the popular towards the nations are preparing to receive guests. after a year of isolation and locked down, the a multi coast in italy was specifically hard hit by the corona virus measures that brought tourism to offense bill. but now our reporter got to visit the people who

call this beautiful stretch of lands their home. they talks about how they are managing life during the pandemic, and i have to admit, i'm a bit jealous of our reporters assignments to you on this. the terraces of the mail, if he coast, they grow the most delicious lemons. they get their characteristic mild flavor from the sun and the sole t. c. air. i made family jets who was sick and generation lemon farmers at 86 luigi at those still feel as if he's convinced that lemon juice flowed through his veins. fortunately, he was spared a corona infection and has already been vaccinated the lemons and working at doors he says, have given him strength even in old age. was the appeal of this look here. this one is full of juice. we also used to choose for disinfection all use to clean our

hands about the money off to taking over the family business. salvatore had a rebuilds professionally working on the steep lemon grows. is tiring. 2500 trees. that's about $800.00 tons of lemons need to be harvested in the hanging gardens each year. the a check to say that they were able to get through the corona crisis by sticking together as a family focus on for all the things are as control and, and chaos us. and that's made this lose their faith and politics. we don't believe the problems here will be solved. so that's why family is so important to me. and then me not. the mouse itala is the only road connecting such a picturesque towns like lo, positano over yeah. theresa murray, tourism here is both a blessing and a curse. before the crisis hit money flowed freely. american tourists in particular would often rent luxury villas in prime locations. ramona avatar gives me a tour of one of her vacant luxury apartments. apart from this illustrious house

called villa aris, 32 year old ramona manages 20 other privately own villas and apartments. this is our salon, which we renovated to you. they made use of the current pandemic by investing into even more luxury at 1200 years a day. this bill is still comparatively cheap. the owners want to make up for last year financial losses. and since there's not a lot of work outside the tourism industry, the locals are dependent on the wealth of others based on on foster, provided it's not easy to find work here with someone. i'm fortunate enough to be working in the business that i help set up and that i enjoy working and he gave me the i, i get to interact with a lot of people. so i'm happy here in the media for tonight. but there are a lot of other young people who are forced to leave me guess i'll go straight to them that if i this is especially true positano, like the rest of because this village too is the unesco world. heritage dies. many

residents rent out their apartment and holiday homes to international jets said is, meanwhile, young people, especially those starting a family, have to move away. at shay black, they're waiting on the return of celebrities. reservations are filling up, says the owner the this was taken in the 1st few years he came to visit. he called me papa black. denzel washington isn't the only one. the restaurant became the new place to be for hollywood stars, enjoying the doj, a farm. the end or the sweetness of doing nothing. it's 5 am and alberta russo and his father take me along to go fishing back when positano was just a sleepy little village. everyone here, mid of fishing. and i've seen this type of work. that's our passion. that's what they're drawn to. it was huge. they will isolated for a month during the corona virus pandemic, over by $100.00. and you got

a few fish that we didn't catch had to be sold for less than the market price. it was really a very difficult situation. let's hope that we can balance, even that they say, that's hope that will come out of the stronger than before. profitably. during the pandemic, they were left to themselves to get by and amidst the quiet, even the dolphin's return to the bay. but now they were afraid, things might go back to normal, says alberto, his father luigi. when it comes to tourism many agree that less is more like that. and then it was a reminder that we're only guests here and there. you know, we should be less selfish. but unfortunately, it didn't really help change people's mindset. people haven't learned a thing how difficult not being greedy and to take better care of the environment

today the to any and see might not have provided them with a lot of fish. but when humans live in harmony with nature, says, alberto, grace and beauty are sure to follow. and so the mouth coast remains a place of longing. our final report takes us to the netherlands country with lots of water, even in towns and cities, things to its numerous canals. these canals are a graph, are a breeding ground for fish that would normally swim upstream to lay the eggs. but when the waterways are closed, the fish gets stuck in traffic so to speak. but now there is an app that helps waiting fish navigate the busy waterways. spring time in the netherlands on the fish and trucks. canals are following the call of nature. heading upstream to the spawning grounds. but there's an obstacle this many evil luck controls the water

levels. the luck is closed in spring because there are hardly any boats about and that creates an under water fish traffic jump through tracks. water monitors have found a novel way round it a fish doorbell. the ecologist installed an underwater camera at the lock that can be viewed on the phone at users to see fish can press a digital door ring here to tell the lock keepers to open the gate. ryan, for example, has just scanned the cure code to see what's happening below the surface dock. there was an appeal at 1st i thought it was an april fools joke because the fish doorbell went online in the last week of march. but it does seem to be serious, serious business indeed, on an unexpected success story than the past month alone, one and a half 1000000 people have clicked on the fish camp,

bringing the luck keepers 50000 times. that means no risk for student tom to birth . at least twice a day he hoped to crank open the ancient lock and to let the fish through the air melting benefit of all the crow. luckily the priest, the rings feels all clicks of registered, but we won't open the lock until we see that enough. have gathered there and on the court about the size of the fish instinctively know where to go. they feel the current through the gate. the bell also helps truck and maintain fish stocks. so far, the camera has identified 18 different species. felicia duke energy literally used to spend a lot of energy waiting here for weeks at a time open as you can go. and that increases the risk of the need by cormorants. the fish traffic jam. me a fish. it's but those days are now over the next fish friendly citizen
