the war go well beyond the borders of ukraine. millions of people are suffering, its consequences. hunger is on the rise. inflation has led to price hikes. the global economy is in crisis. together with u. n t v. we asked people in ukraine how they are dealing with the immediate impact of war, and what decisions they face when it comes to survival. ukraine, the world's bread basket. to bull has cast its long shadow on this fertile land. what is it like to be a young farmer? here in wartime, was a bunch of all around in our ship. our fields 24 year old jeff hen groves, wheat corn, beetroot and vegetables on his $600.00 acre farm. but with ukrainian wheat struggling to exit the country because of the ball. his summer harvest is still

stuck in storage. the price of yet hence grain has plummeted by more than 40 percent. and that is enough. now the price of my grain is 50026002 have near per tonne as way lower than breakeven point. so only to hold it in storage and hope that something will change. the mood is tense and yet hence, household not least because russian missiles have been falling in the nearby fields . his mother and brother depend on him and he feels the weight of the world on his shoulders as he strives to keep his business afloat. although some exports of ukrainian grain have resumed since august 2022, and the black sea green initiative relief is not yet on the horizon for yes hand which you know, it's great that this opportunity to ship out our grain exists. let's hope that it

will continue and stabilize these prices on the market and to amazon customer to lose so far over 11000000 tons of grain and foodstuffs, have been able to leave the ukrainian ports under the initiative. but before the war, the country had been shipping 5000000 tons of food every month. the yellow hen, less sales revenue when even less money to buy fuel, which has doubled in price and fertilizer, which has almost tripled. if you can even find it to keep operations running. yes, n is faced with some very hard choices. the one to 5 man for the cricket problem. we had to cut the amount of fertilizers due to their high cost. we just cannot afford to use them as we did before. so we need to optimize production cost as by cutting fertilizer and pesticides here. thing allows us to be working

with next years yields also in the balance. yes, hand may struggle to pay his farm workers wages. some of his staff only arrived in the region in the past few months from east and ukraine, where the board rages on. yet han has given these internally displaced people or id piece, a job and a place to stay in this little apartment on the farm and feels the responsibility to keep going for them. so here's where the id piece from khaki live and they're currently renovating little we will have to paint here, finished the floor. there will be other furniture here to a new bed has been ordered as well. we help us best return big model. there are 6500000 people displaced by the war in ukraine,

and many of them are living in if i live, if the city has been a place of refuge for those fling. but the signs of war are visible everywhere live. if native natalia was a successful business woman, she and her husband decided to invest in agriculture one year ago using her savings to buy a 380 hector farm, 30 minutes from live and grow barley and soy. the timing of her investment could not have been more difficult when to be from a business there year. we are new in this business. and after the full scale war began, we faced an increase in all the production costs linked to grain cultivation. but we didn't stop that, we are working and we will continue to work believing in our success and that it is good work for a good cause. i was one of them are different. natalia is convinced that farmers have an essential role in sustaining a country and

a people at war. but how much longer will she be able to sustain her business? settlers, i came as a gully hopa to blow the harvest must be exported and sold. but the volumes that ukraine exports to day are very small compared to before. there is simply crazy 'cuz at the border and logistic costs eat up most of the expected profits back it gave, hence farm. it's all hands on deck. as the young farmer struggles to keep operations going, he has been forced to look for additional sources of income. one is to rent space is on his farm to produce toilet paper. this enables him to pay salaries and full other necessities on the farm. a 24 years hence, future remains wide open. despite the daily struggles,

he continues to believe that he can contribute to the renewal and prosperity of his country by doing what he loves best farming with a poetic bent river since childhood. i've always love farming to day i work the fields, the where poet writes a book close, the grain on which you have hand has built his livelihood, is a lifeline for his community. but also for so many people around the world. what course will he and millions of others in countries far away be able to chart in an unprecedented cost of living crisis for his generation. prior to russia's invasion, ukraine, exported more than $40000000.00 tons of grain every year. the majority was shipped out from the black sea port of odessa. the war was an immediate stop to that. and it wasn't until an agreement was reached between the 2 sides in early august that

freighters were again able to leave a desa and bring much needed grain to the rest of the world. it's still far from enough. and as is too often the case, it's the poor who was suffering the most near the city of cairo and in northern shanicea, nashua, sell me supports her family single handedly by making a traditional soft bread called to buena. it's 40 degrees in the shade and it gets even hotter when she fires up the outdoor oven. this is what she does every day, so long as she can get hold of the ingredients. probably only never get if i have no semolina. i can't earn a living and i can't support my children my last time there was a shortage for 3 months. i couldn't cope with my husband can't work. he said i had

no choice in order to survive. my kids are growing up and their needs are growing to similar. you can see how the situation is now with the price is getting higher. what it's difficult to just get by and getting harder to take care of them as you pepito, 3rd, cuba resume, them across the country. people are struggling to buy bare essentials, eggs, coffee, vegetable, oil, and milk. all are in short supply or selling at such high prices that many have to pay on credit so that i don't, i don't believe me right now. we're eating only bread and olive oil. we can't afford any vegetables from the market or anything else. no. what guns, why and what was on a mere omen? look in the capital ch, eunice, there were few outward signs that the country is in the great food and fuel shortage is linked to the war in ukraine. but with shipping supplies disrupted basic goods are unavailable or unaffordable, like the soft wheat and barley from russia and ukraine. that shanicea depends on.

and although for now, in his years, mills are busy and the silo is a skilful. there is still supply problems for many baker mohammed land new c knows this all too well. when there's not enough flower, he has to close up shop and send work his home ins. busier. it's a big problem. if i order 8 tons many, they only give me one. they say you need to wait and then when i tell them i can't work and i might close, they say ok close. the prices are going up. poor people can no longer afford any thing. it's like the world is on fire. it saturday morning and quiet o n nash were sell me is hard at work preparing dough to make a small batch of flat bread just as her mother taught her. she might not even be able to do this soon. the longer the ukraine wall and the

threat to global economic recession dragon via a k at home for me, it is not just the flower of there's no oil and there's no firewood, which is essential for me. if i have to go really far to look for it, sometimes i find it a dog and sometimes i don't dare to guess. i think it is. ah, she's also worried about her eldest daughter. who wants to go to university? i don't think joy because she shouldn't have to think that she's inferior to the other students. but she doesn't have clothes like there's. she doesn't live like them. she doesn't even have a cell phone. but what can i do? have a little bit of nick manner out of and the problems are only just starting for her youngest daughter minutes later i had the i can't afford to buy her books nor a school bag stationary, not even clothes and the we let low and the birth of nash were sell me is

desperate for her daughter is to have a better life, which i lot of been a generated god for them to be successful. my only wish for them is that their needs will be met, especially the essentials. i'm not asking for luxury committee and, and has yet of that already. her goal is to expand my business. my name is henry, who is the head. i'd like to build up my store and sell more items, like spices and detergents, which would help when there's no semolina available to make bread. yeah, but this me would help me be able to feed my family and as you so we don't have to ask for help from others to survive. why don't we, if you had given medina, lilian de la b, bishop 2. in the meantime, many young tennesseans are risking their lives leaving their country in search of a better future. trying to cross the mediterranean sea as often deadly snatch where sammy's eldest son recently managed to reach italy pool. she knows

that he is safe. for now, the family is well being remains entirely. her responsibility. expanding landfill sites are a growing problem across the globe every year. more than 2000000000 tons of trash get added to them worldwide. if not properly sealed these deposed. emit me saying a huge problem for the climate waste disposal is responsible for 20 percent of me. st. emissions in the e. u. a load that's still a problem even if landfills are transformed into wildlife habitats. but it's possible to capture the me sane and even generate energy from its giving former dumps sites a truly green future. new york staten island is planning to achieve just that by 2036 ecologist. jose ramirez is ready to

check the camera. he's carrying out his own version of a neighborhood watch every new form of wildlife. he spots is a sign that nature is reclaiming this form. of garbage done what you've been looking for. so say we're specifically looking for auditors. um, so north american river auditors are known to freak with this location. we haven't found any on our cameras yet, but we have observed them in the field. so we recently put this camera out in hopes that we would capture the family of orders that we found here earlier in the spring . the otter is haven't returned. instead, there is an a possum and an old friend this year 148. so this, the steer was tagged quite some time ago. this is a mil. mm. this is fresh kills wide open country, close to manhattan. garbage from new york was dumped here for more than 50 years. a

115000000 tons of it. it was once the largest garbage done in the world. the remains of the twin towers also ended up here after $911.00. to day, it's sealed off. jose ramirez grew up nearby. he can well remember the putrid stench that regularly hung over staten island. now he's documenting the return of nature. fresh kills is really just one of our crown jewels. it is the only truly expansive grassland habitat that we have in our entire region. now what we're doing at fresh kills is bring these grasslands back and also make sure that they are feasibly managed for biodiversity, and our specialized species like grasshopper sparrows, northern harriers. the park is officially scheduled to open in 2036 by which time the mounds of garbage should have been swallowed by greenery. the 1st

visitors are only allowed to enter in small groups. we are walking on garbage right now. there were a lot of landfills and all 5 boroughs, one by one, those all close down. so you see here 2200 acres and that almost 3 central parks worth of land. this group includes many former residents for them. it's a journey into the past. grizelda healy raised her children here and she says, endured the stench for far too long. it's huge is vast. we never came close to weight. i never could touch the ground or look at it. it's amazing. just a huge territory. hm. it's very emotional. oh, i'm a native san islander and i grew up living pretty close to the, to the,

to the lanfield. now becoming a park. it's really moving to be here now. and to think of like a new beginning, a new life. and to see the what i just saw, a butterfly, and i was like, oh but you know, it's to day life is being breathed into the former garbage dump. choreographer kathy west water is taking the audience on a very special trip. ah, we're physical ising. a sort of process that is happening within the landfill. in maybe that is a form of a metaphor. i think there's a form of reverse within all of that. and how things come apart, come back together again. no matter what. dancing on the garbage left behind in prosperity wake.

it was beautiful. i kept looking around and seeing how that the dancers were moving with the motion of nature. how, how the wind was, was moving everything. and they were also like the reeds were little dancers to be, amid the skyscrapers of manhattan. we meet the man who is already designed to park in the middle of new york, once a railroad track to day a popular refuge for people, animals, and plants. but unlike the highline, fresh kills is a long term project for james corner. shy. it can take up to 30 years for birds and grasses to re establish themselves on the mounds of garbage. even though that looks green. i think an ecologist would probably count about a 100 species. we've allowed the whole system to bio diversify itself. there are no tens of thousands of species that you could could count, and it will get,

it will get more. jose ramirez discovers new animals and plants almost every day. he's also spotted endangered birds of prey here. jose hopes that with the return of nature, the image of an area long considered a forbidden waste land will be transformed. there are perceptions of the park that are negative, and that's understandable, given what the communities here have gone through over the decades. but to see people really appreciate as they learn more about what we're doing here. that is really, that's what that kind of drives what we do here every day. ah, in fresh kills, the return of colorful and diverse wild life is a small victory for nature. and the community ah,

every 2nd to people worldwide turns 60, that's $58000000.00 men and women per year by mid century, one in 5 of us will be over 60 to day it's one in 9. life expectancy is also increasing in more and more countries babies born today can expect to reach at least 80 years old. so what do we do with all our old folks? keep them in the thick of things in japan, they're even experts who specialize in this very topic. ah, view people wake up this excited 7 month old, lena is a bundle of energy. and she'll need that energy to day. ah, that's because she's going to work here in the city of key to q shoe. the baby girl will be helping to entertain the elderly residence at the moines. so you kind
