d. w. ah. the sunday bondsman gray forest in the far south of bangladesh is one of the most vulnerable regions in the world to climate change. many residents live literally at the water's edge. when sea levels rise in a tropical storm, the dikes are breached and waves rush inland. locals do their best to reinforce the defenses, but it's a thankless never ending task. mm hm. every year in bangladesh, an average of 700000 people are displaced by natural disasters. due to global warming, bangladesh is at risk of losing more than 10 percent of its territory to rising sea

levels by $2153.00 of asia's largest rivers drain into the sunday bands delta. this entire region in the south of the country is so low lying that it could become completely submerged. it's projected to that by 2015, 26000000 bangladesh in his will be displaced by title surges and rising sea levels . but the interior of the country is also at risk. increasingly frequent storms, compounded by violent monsoons, caused gigantic floods that even impact the 21000000 inhabitants of the capitol, darker from the north to the south of the country, rivers, repeatedly swell, and burst their banks. will allow gay banu although settled. i bought

it, a mulatto water rosen rose. it was like a torrent flowing through the house. the whole house got lost. come though i used to like a certain it's resulted in millions of climate. refugees flocking to the capital in search of whatever work they can find. the iron 2 to 3 euros a day. that's it. some find work in clothing factories. bangladesh has been called the world's sewing factory. for 1000000 workers here produced genes, t shirts and shoes worn by people across the western world. but the manufacture of these cheap clothes comes at a price for the environment. every day, tons of toxic waste water are dumped into the natural surroundings. in the long run, in order for this gums, despite constituting a public health hazard, the industry is thriving and has been a major engine for economic growth in bangladesh. and you, middle, and upper class,

has a matched me. this pool is one of the most beautiful anywhere and go shut it on, and many of them keep to invest in real estate. if the price is high package, i don't know. the country is even on course, to be removed from the group, at least developed countries by 2024. and thanks to dedicated entrepreneurs, the 1st model companies are now already emerging. wonderful people working and green factories will not want to leave them because of the sound working conditions even ship breaking yards, notorious environmental pollutants on now going green, everything. that's all, all the ways is sent for the governor, bangladesh. she is confronted with a myriad of problems, but there are also stories that inspire home are investigation

into the consequences of global warming in bangladesh begins in dhaka year after year between 530-0000 people who have lost everything in the wake of natural disasters migrate to the capital in search of work. they arrived daily by the dozens at the port or the train station. to day, deka is one of the most congested and densely populated cities on the planet. most climate refugees are housed in makeshift hotels located in the many slums of the mega sitting. all of them had to leave their homes with a minimum of belongings except one. yeah. love to go, but i left with this little bag. just a few clothes that will and

a warm blanket. it's all that i have. yes, there was some will and worked among cool banner li is 65 years old and arrived a few weeks ago. this is his new home one room measuring about 40 square meters. shad with 35 other people. his dramatic story reflects the experiences of many hear me, but i've seen my house collapse a dozen times, whatever, all due to erosion each time, then washed away by the river love. and each time i had to gather up some earth and straw to rebuild it. what about that? what luckily i called ben i li pays one your a 20 a day for food and lodging. i look at the conditions. we're living in here, 30 to 40 people sleeping in the same room. we lie on top of each other and it's full of bed bugs. what, what, what can we do that we have to make a living music littlewood. he found what writing a cycle ritual,

which he rents for when you're at 20 per dang. i would love with a rich off of the lady the climate refugee works over 12 hours a day for 3 months straight before returning to his family. oh wow. how does to how i love, i just earn 10 cents 10 cents for a ride from door reaper to the other end of the market. i love out of what i see, what it was about a month after paying for his accommodation and the ritual. he's left with between 2 and 5 euros. his spindle income from about 30 rights a day quoted was if you ask for money, so rather it's an incredibly demanding job carting people around like this is exhausting. you need a lot of energy. what is the word? every 3 or 4 days corp, on any sense,

the little man he manages to save up to his wife and his 2 sons who are still studying if there was a good one, the little girl i said to them, boys keep studying no matter how hard things are as long as i live, i'll provide for your studies, but finish your education, please press one. now well local possible other makes me sad that i can't finance their education as much as i'd like to. they're working on to very difficult conditions. i send them everything i can use to. however, there are now believe to be $6000000.00 climate refugees, like holborn alley, in bangladesh. the ritual driver is from curry graham. another region that's been

hit hard by flooding. curry graham is located far away from the sea. in the north of the country. but here the devastation comes from china rivers like the brown, my full tra on the ganges or pat man. as it's known in bangladesh, the melting of himalayan ice has caused the rivers to overflow. and asked to have volume and velocity increases fear, roshan of their banks has accelerated to alarming levels. every year, thousands of houses are destroyed and in tie up and just disappear under the water . the island of carrier in the brown, my poor child was hit taunt recently despite the sandbags deployed to protect it. the last name is yvonne la zillow. a one of the flood was 2 months ago. the water

rose really high and the currents carried everything away. bags were put in place to protect us, but they didn't hold. and all the houses disappeared in one day that about english . oh, yes. most of the stores and businesses still standing are now closed, and not much is left of the school that used to be attended by up to $900.00 students. no one really escal dar. this will die. you're not going on. zillow, will like i ramsey lawyer when the buildings formed a semi circle, there was a fence in the entrance gate was over there on august. lucky. the buildings formed a you shape with trees planted round it you. the school yard was over there with the classrooms positioned around it to yourself. it's not a washer garcia of the 14 classrooms, only 2 are still in use. the succession of disasters has destroyed schools and businesses and also farmland, causing the poverty rate to saw families

finding it increasingly difficult to feed and raise their children due to the financial burden. this has led to girls being married off at a very young age, while their husbands are even paid for taking them between 501000 euros. an existing social is to you, exacerbated by global warming, devils, fish, and made a number of the pupils in this class of 9th graders are already married. jasmine has just turned 15, not a bit that version. i was at the, the school phase and my parents low income, you know, death. yeah. go. yeah, that's what i found a husband for me. but if you ever did you know him? no, he came to see me unexpectedly. and we got married on the same day at the law. her

husband is a young farmer also from the island just mean didn't want to get married, but wasn't given a choice yet that i don't have that i was married. so young, of course i'm sad, but what's the use of being sad because nothing i can do and go with the most of these young women will soon have to leave school if their husband can't afford to pay for their education. i was there, i'd like to be a teacher, but my in laws officially, child marriage is like hers are prohibited. so they take place in secret nonetheless, one family who has just married off their daughter agreed to meet us. sabina is 13 years old and is in 6th grade.

who is that? on her husband is 20 a didn't have a choice. i actually wanted to study grow up and start working before getting married in need of a vehicle. a love was you born or little bit ago? did you run? if she'd been older, it would have been difficult to find her husband. so we were happy to her, found a good man for her. we wouldn't have done it otherwise. if we weren't poor, we could pray for our daughter's education, and she'd be able to find a good job, but was simply to pull over. sabrina's husband worked some distance away from the island. he's agreed to let her stay with her parents for now and has promised to pay for her schooling. the teenagers mother doesn't work and her father, a farmer has lost his field. earl, that would never was or not to live as a co. the floods destroyed everything and drove up the price of rice for sure, and he used to call 7 euros. now it's double that the water is destroyed. our rice

vio. sabrina's father has realised that his daughter is unhappy and says he regrets his decision holder hello anna. philip bell, delaware, my daughter is still young, 13 years old. at 11 or 12. it's even was fertile. sure, it's not good. although having some girls are apparently married at the age of 9 research in bangladesh has shown that mothers under the age of 14 are 5 times like he had to die during childbirth than those in the early twenties. these plan to stein under legal child marriages are not registered or recognized anywhere. this was confirmed to us by the office of muslim marriages. oh, i didn't roll again. i do not register, child marriages. these marriages are organized secretly in the villages. we have no

control over a mom to perform them. we work in the office. so i don't want to comment on this issue. the lady said jamiracle both of them that he according to unicef, one and 2 women in bangladesh are married before reaching the 18th birthday. the legal minimum age, half of them will be under the age of 15. while compounding is used that threaten the future of these young girls, the destructive care of water also poses a different and deadly danger to children. more than $14000.00 children drown in bangladesh every year. boy to day 123 drowning is one of the leading causes of death among children in the country. won't bug with hi, we're now we moved to right on like this. what we're, what i'm a bigger dialogue. blue hack has been working as a swimming instructor for 5 years to look. that was great big chair,

please works for an angio that uses bamboo came to construct improvised pools in ponds. they so that's enough. he yeah i, he made it. i think he's learning fast either way, a round of applause. so hack is also worried about the dangerously high water levels. i believe when i read about tick arnold, it's rising all the time on record. there's always water in the lower line regions in the great people there are really suffering. want to go on in the children and not saying on the child, the young about them, the about. i will love it in there and one, and he then he will. the situation is now very complicated. need they wanted mm mm. chaplain and up do live close to the pond where the swimming lessons are held. a few months ago that only daughter died from drowning,

where the low they fell in over there with the water high since are a what i go to the little. ah, i ye shall, was 5 years old. ah, her father had given her a little money to buy candy with her 7 year old cousin. he also died children and they went to the store to buy some sweets and when she came back, they shared them before going off to play ben hill when they think i was reading the koran. when they were done eating, they went outside and i continued reading. i heard a noise close the koran and ran over. that's when i saw my child. oh, i ye shall. is perry a few steps away from the pond? abdul visits her grave regularly. it's right there boys in the yeah, i'm seen, they're going on above my level. think of her

a lot will think of her as long as we live. she was our beloved daughter and a very friendly child, bob michael battler, he gave her amount of affection and love made us how shall i brochure? were hon. a b class, last long celine a. in a short space of time, bangladesh has become the most polluted country in the world. the historic center of deca has become an open and dumping ground where garbage is sometimes dumped directly into the rivers. in ocoee roy is an investigative journalist, specializing in environmental issues. i talked with very old people and there's a base forget tricia, there's today. so it. but now it is. if a big bobby, i think you big in all ladies sick with in half an hour in penalties,

eyes, fashion, consumers around the world are also responsible for this pollution. the boy from iraq, people from other developed countries like america. and i'll, if we're from not near the allies or not, but i would say they're also gone through been through already revolution because in all the all, or is one different and new to the, to blows and nothing a c. so if we want to blow them that there, so you're boiler, bring our he worked with 5000 factories, generating 30000000000 euros in annual revenue bangladesh as the world's 2nd largest clothing manufacturer just behind china this afternoon. pinokie heads out to the suburbs of deca. he's heard about a new environmental scandal linked to the nether industry. the dallas worry river

is in danger. and data is already the or lydia toilet. although the worst that did or did about legally did pinokie hopes his investigation will help save the re ah, in recent years, 185 countries have set up shop along its banks. 80 percent of the hides produced here are exported and supply the ready to wear footwear and leather goods industries world wide. a waste water plant has been built here but has insufficient capacity and reportedly empties its tanks into the dallas warry, including untreated sewage. arriving at the scene, pinokie has immediate company. as the security guard trails him, the lead he received appears to be correct. this pipe leaps directly from the waste water treatment plant is supposed to with the red butter the what is it?

i get my gun safe in my b, i is that this order is not too big. this is pure block water and it is a stinky. so it is polluting that he was not only a group of officials from the plan to pierre and confront the journalist with both of them to the clinic and couldn't believe the person you wasn't. the one working with the manager tries to convince pinokie that these discharges are unexceptional to almost every year. we do a purification procedure. that's what's going on right now. so it's only once a year that you dump it like this as well. so that what is yes, the journalist is not convinced. i don't think this through. i gun see the color of the war by like an esmerelda walker and i think it is full of

it. according to his research, the effluent treatment plant has numerous flaws. problem is sometimes dust is from here, they produce a more liquid list than the capacity. so mid in that time, this same value, it doesn't work, sol, solved the worst. it has to go directly to that, even another of pinocchio discoveries is that the plant cannot process certain highly dangerous heavy metals such as chromium, which makes leather more tear resistance during production. this would be not design door in electric chromium. so it buck williams comes that it goes through that eva and it goes through the open enrollment. then the chrome, yum will be in the fish. then the blossoms high in the long run for the seminar

visitors, but in the long run and wait for the skins when absorbed or inhaled chromium can cause cancer. if they were spirit retract the nasal cavity, the kidneys, and the bladder after several requests a tannery. finally agreed to open its doors to us. is so stinky. laquanda got these hides been here for a long time or if they just arrived. this is our latest delivery. inside. we noticed that the workers are not wearing any protective gear. the war vet it's football is forced to elizabeth warfield. we had a hand without any rules. so they're so, you know, and neither visited with highly proxy. can we go?

so this is a home for vaudeville health. obviously the manager of the tannery tries to play down the health hasn't. i think going to do the chemicals. i use hell, not dangerous moroni to a small extent, because if i know my, than i can't say we use non, isn't it? but it's really not much of the problem, so we don't wear masks or protective clothing to represent minors. another claim, the journalist isn't buying maybe that thought they were told that this gimme goes, i'm not harmful. they're sort of that he believed. but i don't think so. and there are further surprises in store as pinokie roy leaves the tannery tractors, loaded with leather scraps, catch his attention. they're better than bringing here. so i'm going to do

200 meters further on the report to witnesses. a frightening spectacle. i will go over it all out of a ton of leather waist saturated in toxic chemicals being burned in me open just a few meters from the river. by a day, sir, count you dispose of the summer. elena. motto has no other place in reading. how long have you been doing this 2 months miss? lemme would he do, you know, because they're not supposed to dam btr in this with me. so it was a, basically a low land up sort of bond. so they have filled up that bond already. so now they're dumping it yet, so i'm worried that what will happen after 6 months or after 3 months. so maybe

this fed dumping it down the at the air full of toxic fumes, is practically un breathable. already. i'm feeling some headache. you say what about the ecological consequences for the river? ah, we've learned that fish are in scarce supply around the 10th a reason to confirm this, we go to a fishing village located down the stream from the factories. all the men here are fishermen. but their nets has been dry for months. i can't fish any more than the tannery supporting toxic chemicals into the river. you can't catch anything any more, right? so my nets are hung up and storage at home. if you have been doe and his wife pray every day for an improvement in their fortunes. oh,

the shade it glory to you, my lord. when will you deliver us from our suffering and pain them to go to ripley? not a cost to take the lord. deliver us from our sorrows. was another day funny now to some water in the river is not clean. how can my husband work if he doesn't earn any money? how can he clothe else and keep his children fed that he couldn't come before the 10 aires were built, gab indo earned 10 to 20 euros the day. these days ot jobs in the fields barely bring in 5. your rows of the 100 families who used to live here only 15 remain. meanwhile, mother is the country, 2nd largest industry in terms of exports worth close to 1000000000 euros in revenue a year. leather and clothing. factories like these employ more than 4000000 people

nationwide for a number of years now they've been driving bangladesh is extraordinary. annual growth rate of over 7 percent. the country is rapidly developing, but the environment is rarely a priority. bangladesh meets rooms to build them. an astonishing but environmentally hazardous practice has emerged. i don't. it's not in a far come here. me kinda. i love it all to melt the tar worker's burn tons of fabric scraps. got really all day, make sure you mix it properly. a lot more. log out to them go lab is the site manager. oh,

the limited roads into the far where ella georgia, these are left overs entitled the loons. i'm with a method that is environmentally harmful, but widely used. oh, what does, there are lots of roads like this being built? houses no shortage of work. i own across the country. black workers are paid 60 euros a month by the government for this physically demanding work amidst the toxic fumes . many have health problems last year and one of our number, i guess after work we have to eat bananas to relieve the pain. when you call your spit his black. if a doctor cut us in half, he'd find on the black and side i will up every item of clothing made in bangladesh indirectly contributes to the construction of roads. the country's

textile mills produce approximately $500000.00 tons of waste per year. more than half of which is not recyclable. big international brands, such as gap, zora and bash go up behind these pap, right scraps. but there are signs of a brighter future in the bangladesh textile industry. a growing number of companies are going green. after weeks of negotiation, one such firm opens its doors to us. it's a 2 hour drive from data and employ 7300 people in the industry has been wary of journalists since the 2013 ran up last our disaster when a dilapidated 8 story building housing,

several government workshops collapsed. 1135 people were killed. most of them seamstresses. the mill, we visit is a model factory which suggests that part of the country has changed since the shock of ron plaza. they were, as you live, one of the directors of the factory, the owners, the by tope, he grew up, we have especially trained officer on each floor in charge of fire safety. there's also a 1st aid team ready for deployment. in the case of a major incident with the guy never vote for the group produces clothing for de kathlyn pro mod and h and m. this factory has been awarded the coveted platinum status by the united

states green building council. it's one of the greenest clothing companies in the world. the fact he washes over 60000 garments a day. so saving water was a big priority. sir, as you will, is accompanied by macbook, who's responsible for sustainability. minimize the water way, introduce these or the mission. and are you doing, sam? sound of 70 dug, of a water bottle. get you gun. resurrection also to save water and reduce chemical use. the artificial where of the genes is now performed by laser. outside the waste water is all we processed. this water is bomb. our a look channel. this is actually the men are always the one i'm here. oh my god,

yolanda. yep. finally you study and then but while most of the recycled water is discharged into the nearby sewer, 10 percent is re used in the immediate vicinity. says is that some of this water flows into the tanks and we used to irrigate our trees and also for flushing toilets by letter watson. what i need to write a ye foot in bangladesh is now home to $145.00 green fat trees. 44 of which have achieved platinum status. another notorious polluter is also moving in the right direction. bangladesh is the world leader in ship recycling. one in 2 of one of the world's decommission ships and was it fly from the vast sheet or gong beach? here they are, dismantled by 40 different shipyards,

most of them taking no regard for either the environment or working conditions. today, it's almost impossible for journalists to visit any of these shipyards. the association of shipyard owners is shoot an unambiguous search kinnon, or there's a risk of work site safety being jeopardized by an outsider, taking surreptitious photos with their cell phone ah, under these circumstances, shipyard managements are asked to ensure that outside was cannot enter the site liaison the no called chairman of the independent workers party secured access for us by claiming we with foreign investors. ah, officially, we hit to see if there's a possibility of modernizing the site you're are you doing?

where's the boss. busy regard, think says the manager of the shipyard, what they've been trying to hide from outside as is the complete lack of environmental protection, measures, and safety precautions for the workers at this site, oil feet directly into the ground. while asbestos found in large quantities on older ships is handled in a totally irresponsible manner of as best postcolonial. what do you do with asbestos? a little more because you know, the other thing we sell part of it, barry the rest there are inspections by the environmental authorities. so we very discreetly and practice that is illegal. although the sale of asbestos is not banned in bangladesh,

asbestos waste has to be treated. and the workers here are wearing almost new protective clothing people and going to be somebody moves the him somewhere to lose the from with the leg or somebody's guide every year about 20 workers die and hundreds are injured on these duty dismantling sites as they're called. it's only those who have nothing left to lose who agree to testify? if healthy work is speak up, they risk losing their jobs. along a yoga, the owners have built up a network of police, local representatives, and other influential people that are, are and looked on as they were. if a walker is to talk to their face, immediate reprisals or a destroying the environment is no big deal. covering up accident is routine

for them off by them on a recorded vote on actual alarm. the politician who's been accompanying us takes us to meet the worker before his accident is, are what worked for 30 years on various construction sites on that them or a man. i fell off a ladder at work on my foot got caught in the wrong and i broke my leg today. a bit longer. he still has metal plates and screwed loose in his no one lank. i didn't the company provide you with protective clothing. i just did when i do your home i and i wanna know there was no such thing available. when the inspector from the environmental department came by, they gave us a few things like a helmet and sometimes goggles. so the hand, but that was only for half an hour along the line that when i thought about one of the other one by dana or what has received no assistance since the accident to

support the family. his son also started working at a ship breaking yard recently but not all hope is lost for the workers. after weeks of negotiations, the only certifiably clean shipyard agreed to open its doors to us. inside we discovered another world. ah. so the safety is paramount. you need to be alert at all times and to wear a helmet and goggles. i just keep in mind that danger doesn't strike every day, but when it does, there is no warning in one accident can mean a lifetime of misery. p h, p shipyard, safety, environmental protection, and work and well being. i taken very seriously mangled trees there will give mangle 4 times a year. so all my people who are here, we'll get mangle 4 times

a year as a bit and he did them. the one you he rule is the out manager. and also the son of the owner, a businessman who invested $10000000.00 to turn the site into a showcase ship breaking yard. even if it wasn't always plain sailing. love of the people used to work without her protective dumb woods. so they used to just gum, oh, wedding flip flops. so when we started them the board does it. it's very hot. we don't want to wear boards. we are really happy with the flip flops. so we had to train them. we had before them had slowly obadiah, and they understood the importance of wedding protected equip beverage in the hub. and the site is built on a huge impermeable concrete slab. the hazardous materials collected are carefully listed on a board accessible to all with the name of

a respective specialist to be contacted. should a problem arise? what kind of hazardous waste was generated? last bunk, saw where glass woo, less burst doors, brain tubes, bar medical ways to all die were was, will be what is written here at p h p. workers earn between 30 and 40 percent more than elsewhere. these modern construction sites and factories with higher wages and better conditions are also involved in the emergence of a new middle class in the country. in the new up and coming neighborhoods in the north of decor, high and stores and buildings with modern amenities are constantly springing um ah, solid one is the is it? where is the apartment this way place us hussein in the

real estate agent? is it there? hello, what are lordy? here you have a pool. and on this side the reception hi. uh for today he'll be showing his client, a lawyer, married to a fighter pilot, one of the nicest apartments in his portfolio. a been a, you have the living room and the dining family living there you have the kitchen. the apartment has over 300 square meters of space and has several balconies. wow. i can see the sky and the view. it makes me really happy. the client seems interested and asks about the price rises. how much does it cost? what's your offer? price tom rate on $2400.00 euro's 1000 square meter. yes. so 720000 euros. in total, that's expensive. but right now,

business is good. i'm under the shill jumbled the with our since the percentage of the population belonging to the up on the new crafts is rising sharply. send my last class for 6 apartments in 6 months here. in goal shot i mushroom the charter workman gets abortion. to fully convince his client, her st takes her up to the roof, is for me, this pool is one of the most beautiful anywhere and go shot one day on him from $3.00 to $4.00. jump great. how about i jump in? a nice idea in this hate. while the countries middle and upper classes continue to flourish, a significant section of the population still live below the poverty line. and according to the world bank, if drastic action is not taken soon, and temperatures continue to rise by 2050 bangladesh will have more than 20000000

climate refugees. mm . ah. does thread illegal dumping destruction of livelihood and indigenous tribe in brazil? fighting for the right to exist? the land of cody bona is legally protected. but the state does little to curtail illegal loggers and trespassers. now the carry puna are suing the government. global 3000. in 30 minutes on
