but only for them. it's detrimental to the wider community miller. i'm in the little and i wanna. we had to e, kiki, the provincial capital sandwiched between the desert and the pacific. this used to be a depressed region until the container port was built here and the free trade zones off recreated. companies operating here enjoy tax exemptions, including apparel importers, unsold and used clothes from around the world, including germany are partly sold to buyers in the region, but an estimated 40 percent ends up in landfill sites. you can even go medina, it depends what's in the containers at the in some of it's in good condition have an hour, but sometimes we have to throw a low quality textiles in the dump weapon companies. sheila is south america's main importer of used clothing in neighboring countries. it's illegal or restricted. the

result is the vast dumping ground in the desert. we meet dario blanco, head of keke, a free trade zone users association. he says the situation is improving. oh boy with a few ok. he thought a what i can say is that the clothing important companies want to help things improve. they want to address the negative impact of their business model. the other vehicle was here. the situation is definitely going to change it with me. most of the clothing is made of synthetic fabrics and takes years to buy or degrade. this family sifting through the piles of used clothes or refugees from venezuela. they're looking for clothes they can wear and also anything they can sell. and i thought of the food go that the my 2 children and i came through the desert. let me call. we had to leave behind our suit cases containing all our clothes. but we'd have never made it, but i wanna be and i've used up all my savings. glad every where we go.

we see refugees who have traveled through the desert despite the scorching midday sun. those family wants to keep going until they reach a key case where they hope to find work. the city is 200 kilometers away. the family looks exhausted. normally, it's hot. oh, it took us 4 days to get it from the border. 20 kilometers away on board. we're not making much progress, landed, but we haven't lost hope. when a therapy get ya. my year venezuelan refugees in chile often end up working for a pittance, including here and the landfill sites. this one is 12000 kilometers from europe, but it doesn't take long for us to find items that are clearly from germany. us side about your problem. we find discarded videos and

a phone book from breyman bowl, and cotton socks that cost for euro's $0.49 by pam p. o. women should see the mountain of clothing in the chilean desert is a symbol of the shocking hidden cost of the global fast fashion industry. this new and native casting session. these little packets might be handy, but they quickly land in the garbage bin, and they don't ross. in all web special, we chant the journey of such a sachet from the origins of the raw materials it's made from to its ends on the rubbish heap. we find out where the number of sa chaise is growing and why they're so lucrative for businesses. and so disastrous for our planet. find out more at d, w dot com slash plastic. the small kingdom of la soto,

known as the roof of africa, is one of the world's highest situated countries. as an enclave, it's entirely surrounded by south africa and is largely economically dependent on its bigger neighbor. but the soto has something very valuable for drought played south africa water. increasingly, however, this provision of water for its neighbor is creating problems for both local people and the ecosystem. walter rich le soto is keeping thirsty south africa alive. but the tiny, landlocked country is paying a high price for it. we didn't anticipate to that, the dams here in the so to really did me something that is bringing well perhaps i will warn will to the law, i see nothing of the better life that they promised us would. rather if it were up to me, i would decide against that building the damn the

needful water. i saw the africa grains high and the soles of such water remains the little islands were to project. we have been able to divert water and twas how africa, but we are limited by the quality of our environment. the pit i had when i back when the children were growing up, this was a beautiful and peaceful village. we looked out for each other. nobody here went to bed hungry, but look what happens now. people don't trust each other any more. it's just not the same. here in much harbor righty sees village. phase 2 of the la soto highlands water project started 3 years ago. one of 5 damages is being built here to supply water to neighboring south africa. the entire village has been moved to another location in the construction work hit us hard. they had

promised us jobs. our children are supposed to be earning something from this, but instead they're out of work for adults, while other people in south africans get the jobs we go hungry. one. and they also took our fields till another about gas in the corn fields and grazing land. now, hows construction workers far from leading to greater prosperity, the dom has brought misery for residence. driving 8000 people from their homes. the water will flow to south africa's financial hub, johannesburg, 400 kilometers away. for the 16000000 people in the city and surrounding province la, so toes dams a vital and already provide 60 percent of their water since the project is financed with south african taxpayers, money, eula,

klein. hans has been monitoring it for a long time. he works for the organisation outer, which seeks to expose corruption and mismanagement me, urbanized ations taking place and future development, then expansion of business needs more water. the problem is we are only very limited to the water that we have in south africa. we don't have innovative technologies and circulated infrastructure yet to recycle water. and currently we highly rely on the las joslyn's face to scheme to provide future demands. it's one of the largest infrastructure projects in africa and is supposed to benefit both sides. south africa paisley side tire nearly $17000000.00 euros a year for the water under. so to use this, the dams to generate electricity for its population. the local project manager from the list, so to highlands authority, tulsa, let him 5, he has time. the dumb wool will stand right here,

5000 hacked as of land will them be flooded? as we are all away, this kind of projects would have social impacts and environmental impacts. and we as the project headline number for programs which had been discussed in mac, lead vocal mean, it is a, as ways that means so far mitigating against the laws of land that the laws over my crazy area and were patch me to see sick. we had exactly the same promises 24 years ago when the cat saddam was built. all other dams feet that water into this reservoir from where it's piped to south africa. sick we what's for the say and only legal center. it's hoping local people like here in the village of my lang to now claim the compensation they were promised. yeah, i mean it's a while on. yeah. oh yeah,

i'm with them. as everyone knows. yeah, i wrote that you were severely impacted by the construction of the dan. will you you rights have been traveled on may obama. we all know why your water springs have run dry load. my, which i own will have it for you. i don't, i mean, it may low again. tell that day we had decided to use the money to get our village connected up to electricity. e m. okay, low yet. but the development authority has done nothing on all. again, we're still waiting for power and map. elaine, my been in my land, the area declare late, i don't know to tell them when i say we also promised compensation for the loss of our homeland and the pain we had because of the resettlement. how can we help some people here got injured during the move career. much to this day, we have not received anything. we've got a blue moon on the employee to us,

conceived joe by to an demote, antique governments of south africa, a possibility him and the military at the gym elicits all those governments did not have mandate from the people day day. so need for the review of this region. the project is also threatened by massive soil erosion. the construction of the dams, along with overgrazing and climate change mean more and more soil is being eroded by the rain and ends up in rivers settlement. in many places, only by rock remains totally to say, lay as a consultant for a national project. the aims to protect the so toes, rivers, work as hair rebuilding low walls into the hillside to reduce the speed and force

of rain water run off and prevent erosion. they also remove invasive shrubs that would otherwise whitehouse endemic ponds. he's roots help to keep the soil in place with the current erosion. the life of such dems would be fairly compromised the lifetime, because in no time there will be more full of sediment done water. so this would be lost investment and therefore we depend largely on biodiversity, the type of visit to the neighbors infiltration of water. oh really? oh oh. we went to weird for 10 more. yes, there will be time will not be able to produce anything. and then

we become a failed state. in my opinion, i read the rings of saving this for letting me know are popular ingredients in cold drinks. the green fruits of a cold, delicious refreshment, and a lot of vis a means to $100.00 milliliters of lime juice contain 30 milligrams of vitamin c less than lemons. but still impressive. mexico is the world's largest exporter of citrus rates. in 2020 it exported more than 800000 tons of lemons and limes. now, however, the mafia is getting involved as the evening descends over the yucatan peninsula. david medina gets out his single barrel shotgun. he inherited the 20 gauge

harrington from his grandfather. it may be an antique weapon, but it does the job. horrible, but a vertical deal. i need the gun to defend my limes from being stolen. little girls . i don't want to kill any one. i just shoot into the air and then they run away. decorum, boiler, assert, and lime prices has turned his farm into a growing small fortune. hence the night time thieves for them a crate of lines means enough food for several days. let it run through or to live with paula. they come here and fill up their rugs, actually some times in groups of 5. and they take several crates for about $5000.00 pieces worth 0 single carbon federal hooper. the equivalent of 230 years losses that really add up the 76 year old. some time stays out until dawn on the lookout for suspicious activity. for

referral. i'll stay out for a little while longer and we'll see if anything moves or if i hear something more, a 2 hour drive away, my fellow avila patrols his families orchards together with his father, brother and nephew. thieves have struck here countless times in the process also destroying the next month. harvest when the rope of the universe as they pack limes into the clothes, they tear at all the trees around them. and in the morning we see that the smaller limes have also fallen off the mancha. you the 2 episodes in mexico's growing plague of lime crime, triggered by market price increases, leaving farmers fighting against thieves and customers with high prices which have risen $3.00 or 4 fold since the end of 2021. mexicans eat an average of 18 killers of the fruit per year. a stable food that served with practically every dish. all

of his salvazar bags in everything from stews to tar goes, you need limes in early morning. it without, it normally would buy a key low, but these days only a quarter kilo because prices of risen. so much marcial. but it's comic relief content on social media with limes depicted as green gold as a cash alternative or a commodity. transported in armored security vans as engagement rings for making people millionaires behind the soaring prices. there are several factors, the climate, the season, and the state of me to walk on. the land here ought to be covered in lime green. but fighting cartels left farmers in the crossfire forcing many of them to quit. he bullied such others has decided to stand his ground defying the criminals with his own vigilante group. he's the only farmer here, willing to talk on camera. i'm going to have than the others they're afraid of

getting killed if they talk every one he says, pays protection money one way or the other, whether for the harvests or their transportation, that gives the cartels a share of profits while pushing prices. any one refusing to pay up is threatened, or worse, montana kill traders are going in and fixed line prices in, in increasingly more. how is they attack you and dictate how much you have to pay them as he'd or hopelessly of the computer in a similar manner? we're in wylie. chavez is determined to carry on the struggle. come, what may hill was only me see who i lost one of my son, saudis and a lot of friends who'd fought alongside me on my loot. it's a pain that you're on will very deep kiss or you will. none of them. other farmers have already fled the violence, leaving behind tens of thousands of trees to wither away with no one to harvest

their frees. and that gap in supply on the market is a further reason for the rise in prices back in you got on the farmers, at least don't have the cartels to worry about. just the petty line feed was allowed one woman that local law enforcement provide support for the farmers patrol squad example. police chief nelson. avi law has been analyzing the thieves tactics . iraq yasser leather em. hello. what do they do? they don't come in through the main entrance. they cut themselves a path through here to gain access to the premises when it gets hot in that i don't know if that when he hopes crisis will come down a little soon. and that com will be restored to the community. he currently had his 5 lime thieves a week together with their whole if he is for employer that this batch here is stolen goods look into this and the themes won't say where they're from. so that means we don't know who to return them, let him on some of those apprehended. i'll repeat offenders,

but there is little the police can do to the frustration of the farmers and order it by family, mournful the quantity stolen by each individual is too small. to charge them up so they're held in custody for $24.00 or 36 hours. whether it's a fatal, some of them have to do a little cleaning work somewhere before they're released within. sadly made us this night has been a calm and quiet one for lime farmer, david medina. he summoned a sharmen in order to keep it that way. together they make a sacrificial offering of herbs to the sacred deities. brother be after name was an error. we do this because we have faith that will work so that we're able to harvest our fruit, want dinner. and i also pray for the line prices to stabilize, so that farmers like him can earn enough and sleep peacefully again. lou. this lee county label team comes from the nevin
