a lot. we meet vsl olu, so i had a grocery store in istanbul. the economist calculates the inflation rate every month, based on actual price increases over the past year. not the government's official rate like a chinese last year. milk cost between $5.00 and $7.00 lira right. that she did right. draw the nicholas 7 laira in middle and now this milk is 2011. it went up. yes. that i, unfortunately with an under could either one a leader of milk for 20 years, roughly one euro 28th loose. i believe's the official inflation rate of 70 percent is incorrect and you can learn public. you use the use a lot of lation rate is at a 156 percent compared to prices from last year and it will continue to go up soon or the government's official inflation rate will break 100 percent and by october or november, according to our calculations, we're headed towards almost 200 percent cities in that they closed the door to get

happiness as a measure of prosperity. that's what the small himalayan country of baton is known for. the mountain state has fewer than a 1000000 inhabitants and is roughly the size of switzerland. environmental protection is entrenched in its constitution. baton is the world's only climate neutral country and its thickly covered with forest. but climate change is becoming an ever greater concern for how much longer will the peaks here be snow covered? a buddhist temple high in the himalayas. where wheels powered by mountain streams, and stupid lining the roadway. signs of harmony with nature are everywhere here. for the people of be tom glaciers and mountains are sacred. like these 7000 meter peaks at the border to the back. though the glaciers days appear to be numbered, the ice is melting. g to climate change are shown on this animation by the w w. f and the jo ann, the glacial lakes have become
7:10 am
a major flood threat. nearly 20 mountain lakes are currently at risk. the most devastating floods in britain happened in 1994. a lot of the properties were damaged as the blood came down and it also glib some of the lights. but many mountain villages don't benefit from the glacier fed streams. they have to rely on the reins of the monsoon season in the south and return the monsoon season is normally in july. but in recent years, the heavy rains have come to sit on tight earlier in the month of may. the seats owned by local farmers were washed from the fields and the rainwater vanishes. almost as suddenly as it appeared, springs, running dry and mountain streams have slowed to a trickle. according to the un,
7:11 am
or than 60 percent of the towns population has no access to clean drinking water. about 4 and a half 1000 people living sea dante, most homes and the new hospital connected to large rainwater tanks. but hardly any one, drinks the water out of fear of bacterial contamination. he had to do and it's a sad situation or does it should it arise? it will be a disaster to this community. and his health providers, we may get across infection and we had out to see the source of the villages, water supply some 16 kilometers away village liter. none that al carol wants to show an environmental expert, the situation they're facing here with less frequent disputes with the neighboring villages. the rules for access to spring water, a strict nam gay who works, but returns tarianna foundational hopes to improve water management head. the project received support from the international climate initiative. what vis water

belongs to another group. we've already spoken many years ago that we can share the water for cultivation everything but she ranty. they also have 400 households and a population of 4 to 5000 or so they're dipping into this water. they altered when at least they share the drinking water with us. but it's not a solution. our associates drank div id, be those are ha, climate change and or deforestation. as early as of ham router construction, and for many people, the young students who attend setting tase central school are also affected by the water shortage. the 860 students have just one source of water for bathing and laundry. the only source of drinking water is in the kitchen. the students carry buckets of water to pay then and to flush the toilets. you don't have enough water

to wash the body and that they have for water to wash their coach and to it because of that only give to all sorts of skin diseases and 31 big challenge. the narrow valley in the south of baton near the border to india has a sub tropical climate. at the valley's edge lies the village of dutch and pel. ray, the water supply is a problem here to the monsoon has become irregular, and while it does rain, the torrential downpours often wreak havoc when the impulse for all the further coming gone. i live on like a learn float, williams. fernando and destroying god. what little 3 people do you want to go? all of them over movie read blondie from here in the valley. the fields are small jam based on am and his wife, mainly plant mays and chillies will be did you 0? it's a lot of work gum, gill, there's a thin layer of soil with rock underneath. heavy rains, wash away the soil and then there's rock everywhere. that'll do occasion. these

plastic sheets protect their fields from weeds and erosion. jam based on arm and his wife cell, part of their harvest, chillies and heart m. m. fetch a good price. i'm here, the village belt a water tank to irrigate their fields. the water comes from the mountains 3 plastic pipes, but they are often damaged and landslides. and then as the elephant it was what own way they come into the village almost every night. your small groups of young elephants are usually they tear off clusters of bananas or bamboo plants. 5 minutes later they leave what we try to scare them off with noise enter flashlights, utopia. in the nearby town of galaxy, the elephant spent. you're right up to the house is often damaging cars or farmers fields. a few months ago, a local resident was killed by an elephant. and the electric fence is being built
7:15 am
to keep the elephants out. that way the hurts will stay in their natural habitat where they have an important role to play with really good movie. but the elephant is an architect off to for us. he decides what the forest is going to look like. and if there is a tick pushes, ah, he just go in and trample it on it. he opens up for the re generation of 4th buttons. forests are important to the country's water supply. they also play a vital role in maintaining bio diversity and protecting the climate. tiny baton is doing its best to adapt to climate change, the residence of the mountainous kingdom, half little of the choice. 02 children to countenance one giant problem and molina.
7:16 am
ignore me up with the lively, lazy, legal features in delay food. exactly. how will climate change affect us and our children learn more at d, w dot com slash water. ground water supplies, almost half of all the world's household water, and agriculture is also hugely reliant on it for irrigation, 99 percent of fresh water in our soil is groundwater. yet in many regions, it's becoming ever scarcer partly because of climate change, but also because too much of it has been pumped out of the ground, including in water which countries like germany voice which like it where i sit down to put on my fans was all water and 2005 branded bergs, like straus lives,
7:17 am
just outside of berlin. like most bodies of water here, the lake is fed by ground water. for some time the lake has been shrinking, losing around 600000 cubic meters of water annually. so drinking water comes from here that doesn't explain the huge annual losses. the shallow end of the swimming area has almost gone. so diving instructor struggled to practice with beginners. but i thought it because the area behind is too deep for initial training teachers should if on global scale fears, he won't be able to run his diving school much longer. and that's because the water shrinkage also has consequences for the advanced divers. around 30 kilometers away in berlin is the light and it's institute of fresh water ecology at new z here. eco hydrologist. dr. jo blevins dorski does his research monday in my ass, marvin at 1st. and when you see this much water,
7:18 am
you think berlin is water rich felina, but at the same time, violet berlin is really water poor because there is very little precipitation on we're in a region of germany with the least amount of precipitation in it. and as resulting berlin will have big problems with quantities in the long term valley. that's because climate change is magnifying the problems opposite. it's likely that less groundwater recharges taking place because water is not seeping in the land. it's already the operating beforehand. this is already having visible consequences for forests and bogs. chief forrester yog, duma is on his way to the look, say, hello district forest to peter pollack leads him to a spot where just a few years ago, they would have gotten their feet wet. this bog is a living body, one that shrinking and be standing here, my boots are getting wet, but it's actually 2 meters below the water level that the lake used to have the
7:19 am
boss osh, done which within the either by mutually, in my case, my head would be under water, but that shows you the extent of the situation. your yonder still is when major carbon sinks like finland stria out, they release their carbon into the atmosphere that drives climate change, putting more pressure on the lakes, but the foresters spot another problem. the huge structure nearby would surely requires a lot of water. meanwhile, in berlin's moods a lake, there's more evidence of the growing water shortage and the impact that it's having definitely, very early in the year, the threat level for forest fires was high, which again shows we don't have enough water of any. martha scientists have been tracking the growing water shortage here for decades or them on this. if you look at this graph which covers a period of 50 years, you can see that the water levels are dropping in many areas that equal fast enough . for more than 20 years,
7:20 am
ground water levels have been sinking more noticeably across germany, enough to dry out an inland sea. for example, a little flaw is shun. it's quite horrifying to see it's unless it's something that when i think of my children is going to be a big problem of them. online anc las colinas called thank it for the diving school at lake straus. the problem is already arrived, stiff and go very good is heading to a training platform. a few years ago. it was at a depth of 4 meters and now his computer shows it's now just 2 meters, 7 deep. the platform that was used to practice rescuing people from the seabed, for example, is now no longer deep enough. but the diving school instructor says climate change isn't the only problem here. he criticizes the local water authority that draws on ground water for public drinking supplies and to local industry. listen, eventually what i'd like just thought i'd like people to take us seriously. and us
7:21 am
will ask to hear us and do something about the water shortage, which is being caused by human behavior. yeah, for the fall with yet. but he's worried things will only get worse now that automaker tesla has moved in teslas 600000 square meter gig. a factory sits in a water conservation area and consumes as much as a small town. unless alone intercourse you've got to bear in mind that there will be expansion and that will bring further influx. we've got the automotive supply industry and a whole raft of people who move in. and they will all boost water consumption of us . a football fan was on at the looks a lake, the moorland is parched. forrester peter pollack has been watching the developments for 20 painful years. it makes him angry, frustrated a bit sad. it was a poll. we cut. the official explanation is climate change,
7:22 am
although it's never been thoroughly investigated. but groundwater here is being pumped out of the region. peter pollack tells us that a major part of the water goes to one of brendan bergs biggest tourist attractions . the tropical islands resort, resort managing director, tossed interest of or young doesn't see a connection love i'll um. yes. valley just because we happen to be in the loop is a region which has now dried out. i don't think we can take the blame for it. i see the penance void without submission because we have done it, but he gets and continue to do. yeah. others all we can to take an alternative approach. i don't not, he's out to say some 80 percent of the pu water is recycled using state of the art filter technology. but one fundamental problem is that many of brendan briggs, groundwater exploitation licenses were issued more than 30 years ago. long before economic mega developments like tropical islands or tesla arrived on las scenes.
7:23 am
now back to the base. recreational divers and diving instructors are in agreement about the ground water loaning a change of approach is necessary. we have to re think things are resources are limited. we need to take care of what we have an art and rosa who's hired this. and he thought of me, it's simply not the case that we don't have the chance to enact a better approach. we're just not doing it of the amazon. and it's also a problem that those who make the decisions are hard to reach and can come as a result, more and more often, decisions are being made to help expanding businesses. despite the dire consequences for groundwater and the environment. for this weeks global living rooms we had to kenya, i
