for the exit is, is caused by political crisis, lack of food, collapsing, health care systems, and also corruption, and rising, crying their desire destination, the usa and canada, where they're often less than welcome our report from guatemala, looks at initiatives that are hoping to give people a bright future in their own country. oh, oh, oh, the u. s. border is about 2300 kilometers away and our fire cock racks would love nothing more than to just keep on riding and leave the hardship of life and watch a monarch behind her. like half the population of the country he works in agriculture. extreme weather is increasing the frequency of droughts and flood farmers are anxious about their

future. ah, look at this measly corn. com a. they're supposed to be much bigger. oh, these days the harvest is barely enough. to even feed his own family with a recent hurricane that havoc in the wake, the damage will have lost in consequences. need if you have to do to even find any soil yet. oh ha, ah, what is it? that's why nothing grows properly any more. but in the hurricane dropped a thick layer of sand on the field. so well, climate change corruption, violence he and millions of others in guatemala despair for the countries future. a study shows that one and 6 guatemalans emigrate to the u. s. my closest, our mayor is a social worker. he works with young people,

encouraging them to create change. he runs the central key data, which translates as the stay he has center. he teaches classes to help young people find jobs, and success in their own country. thought either a new lady up there earlier

thing my last one is gonna let me look at the population that can barely survive the resource of labor. no corruption creates the conditions like that. make it impossible for them to earn a living sales. i are not up wealth, happiness by federal methods. yeah. hub lake schools are only open for hours a day. aid organization, la swing international, is trying to help. la swing knows that teenagers here experienced violence every day. it's workers try to give them hope and teach them that there are alternatives to leaving the country to day. they're making a list of the things that connect them to their home land and the things they hope to find in the us. that's where, like it'll have your li, when we hear guatemala,

we think of violence, hunger, danger, and gang. so little things that we fear that that's why so many people wants a fleet of the u. s. okay, because they're hoping for a good income education, a nice home and money to send home to their family. la garza put them on the li, narrow. so for me, little is the yeah, the organization hopes to offer teens an alternative to the pan diaz. the teenage gangs, they work to instill values like education, confidence, and non violence. i see now see like i'm convinced that it's worth it. that's what really fast and just look at the smiling faces and the dreams they hated it though as the different viewpoint, addison family in. so to see all of that in a place where i never know if i'll make it back alive. when i step outside, see generally jeriso the more dorothy, well is a good thing them. if we didn't, even if we speak different languages, we're basically all the same. we are human beings, that many of us have no prospects. all we want is a chance, you know,

a bodily daddy back to her fine. he's enjoying his evening at home with his wife and 5 daughters. but his oldest daughter is missing. she was smuggled into the u. s. a child with an uncertain future. thousands of kilometers away from her family for many families in guatemala, it's just a part of life. the rhythm of and when my daughter left, i was sad. well, because i wanted to go myself. yeah. okay. but i couldn't afford. it has been notified maybe some day. i'll still get my chance to not ha, ha, ha ha, in his family, hope that their daughter will one day be allowed to work in the u. s. so that she can send the family money. until then he, like many guatemalans will continue the struggle to make ends meet

our planet is home to a wide variety of plants which have adapted to very different environments of to 400000 species. in total, we actually eat just a tiny fraction and half of our food intake is covered by just 3 crocks, corn, rice, and wheat. and the range of clans on our fields is continuing to shrink according to you and estimates in the last century alone. the world lost 75 percent of its crop diversity. a major reason is the industrialization of agriculture. more than half the global seed market is controlled by just a handful of corporations, and they decide what's grown in our fields and what ends up on our plates. a $1000000000.00 industry at the cost of plant diversity for thousands of years, farmers for you, bread reserved, and shared seats. but then agriculture radically changed. in the 20th century, farmers got new machines,

chemicals and law made seats. and big companies stepped in. these major players dominate the market to be one of them had a special role in shaping modern agriculture, especially in the u. s. now owned by german will to national by your monsanto was one of the giants of the business. to turn seeds into property and farmers into submissive customers to understand how they did it. it's important to know the history during the vietnam war once on to was one of the largest suppliers of the notorious edge, an orange for the u. s. military. $50000000.00 leader is of this deadly herbicide was sprayed to kill trees and tropical foliage that provided cover for the vehicle fighters. not only do this areas remain contaminated, millions have been poisoned by the chemical. next. monsanto turned the attention to peacetime with killing developing the blog buster hab. recite round up. it hid shelves in the 19 seventies and became the companies keep profit driver

rhonda kills the root kill so we'd round up keels thanks. suits may come and cliff a saint, but it ended up killing so well that it also killed farmer's crops. so they could only sprayed before planting seats after the harvest. but what if the receipts that couldn't tolerate round up that home i found stepped into the sea business? in 1996. they rolled up round up ready div receipts that were genetically modified to be immune, to gleeful st. who wouldn't buy into that? it was like magic to talk to farmers at that number. marco elmore is an environmental historian at the higher state university to spend a decade working on this book about monsanto. weeds almost immediately began developing resistance around and you kind of have this cycle in this genetically engineer and see system now over using a chemical,

which by the way is very profitable for the company that's selling. and 100 did something else that changed a great culture forever. they patented technology behind the seats. this meant they could dictate the way farmers use them. monsanto created a system that they controlled by 2008 months. hunter had bought 50 international seed firms. the market power of mon fonda and similar companies was growing more and more today. 90 percent of corn upland cotton employ being from the u. s. a. produce with patent and seat one. find out what the buyer is, the big supplier. the big promise behind genetically engineered crops like those from santa higher yield for farmers. but in 2016, the national academy of sciences published a 600 page dozier on the effects of g cross from the us. find is found little evidence that such crops actually lead to higher yields. what has been going on is

the use of monsanto supposed to child cliff a site to move youth harbor 5 globally. this to maps of the us showed won't of round up being sprayed on the dark of the colors, the more is being used. meanwhile, what's been going down is the variety of foods on our plates. there are over 50000 edible plans in the world, but we mostly rely on just 15 corn wheat and the rise of the major hits the modern agriculture system created. this is aisha for awful companies owning this. you get to choose what pharma girl and how and that determines what we eat, planting the same variety is also makes crops mobile neural to drop in disease. the climate crisis is only making it worse. it's a different story with traditional seats. if you want to look for something that rate hash mighty conditions, especially now that we emphasize the climate change,

you can always go back to that i've not been elected. this is the medical den. she's a plan geneticist at the international crops research institute of the sammy area topics. the more different seats we want, the higher the chances of finding the ones that can adapt to stream whether, for example, in just one region and south east india find is discovered almost 400 varieties of neglected crops species. and one thing we're 6 traditional local, right, right. is the deal better with drought, salty soil and flooding strength compared to commercial turn into luckily, even when traditional seats are gone from the field, they're not always gone. gone. we have them in places like thief, more than $1700.00 c banks around the world for the untapped potential of traditional feats. probably the most famous you bank point is the coolest looking one is this one in norway. it stores over a 1000000 cit samples from across the world, and the chilar permafrost conditions make sure this little fellows are preserved

for centuries. the system works like a bank, the deposit their own samples, the bank, in this case, the government of norway owns the facility. for example, brazil has thousands of seats in here. some of the seats were rescued only because indigenous communities and traditional farmers kept them there where we grow all foot has drastically changed. if the large corporations will have benefited at the expense of everyone else, farmers have got hooked on chemicals and lost ownership of the seats and consumers mill south on so many flavors and new trance. so it's time to ask ourselves, how can we grow food better? this time for every one ah motor isn't increasingly scarce. commodity in many parts of india, the rainy season is getting shorter, heat wave, longer and droughts more frequent. ah, much of india now faces a water crisis. but it's not any climate change that's to blame. many lakes and rivers are badly polluted, but help is at hand from local,

clean up operations. here is what it looked like before the clean up and after. and it happened in less than 2 hours. in that hour we have had 25 to 30 doug, and i don't know if he is who have worked with those. gotta be blocking to make a positive contribution to society. i'm looking for you. the hard part is organizing it money undone is the founder of the indio, cocoa, lakeland. the by the gobbler might its volunteers have been distorting what a body's across glimmered thought for the past 5 years. and this is how they do it . so the issues in charge of getting all volunteers to arrive at the scene a lot of the gum disease. dig, mom often wear gloves for the day and time in brooklyn. it's money, gardens job to divide them up into various groups. hello, hello. you are all their reading globulin from dis, wait, were i to distribute supplies?

about housing, liquor and gopi is in charge of documenting the process group at the very last minute come closer, agony no longer. it all started in 2017. when coin metal was facing of severed shout money. condon was determined to revive one of the cities driest water bodies barrel. when he produced down the call, it hadn't has even water for many years. rather than i decided to clean the panel by removing plastics and with an vis avita the normal flare decline. we began cleaning activities on the 12th of february, 2017 maniac. in the 1st week, 50 shoreline, been the better, but in the weeks after 400 people showed a loss of in just a moment while we finished eating the tank or it apart the day. and we don't have a financial or political back. good luck. we had volunteers who were ready to work for this. now what i was helping belinda anna mcclendon at it. so we decided to clean up various water bodies every sunday. so far we have been working for 249 consecutive sundays. either very care no day with dom we're the wiring,

gordon and i don't like from us. the organization has restored for large leaks, 9 small ponds and more. but if you ask money london, which project was hottest? he'll insist on taking you there before he tells you the story behind it. ah, either a lacrosse spread across 90 acres, the velo tank is one of climate those oldest. it's fed by the no luge river for 15 years and remain dry because of 3 major problems that clone the. there were lots that in this account up here under canada, water hadn't been melott. i need people had engrossed on 4 and a half of the 6 and a half kilometer long on it. on either side of the river banks and garbage had been dominant into the jack dams, to which this dang receives the water to the lumber. these were the 3 problems metamora brittany, limited in 2017 money, camden and his team began cleaning the tank and it's checked dance. they also

played a role in convincing 2 and a half 1000 families, settled along the river, banks to relocate to state housing. and then for the 1st time in 17 years, the velo dank was full, ah, village is 2 kilometers of a once lactic, reliable water sauce. but just a few months after the reservation was completed, locals noticed an increase in ground water levels because of eleanor tank could now retain the water it received back in the you only have armed if it drained or file, if it didn't, i was he would. and farm border boring since there is water in the tank for the past 4 years. and there's being water in our veil than me you could use them, wouldn't bump out the water for farming rosario, wondering what i asked to buy 200 to 200 liters of water video. mama, one, it's much better now because i can get water whenever i need it at home. on my savings having greece as a result, loa,

and one of the jungles zebra horn and water. again, it's not only people who have benefited from it and from the ground water regenerating itself. this bank has now also become a habit dot for various species. that's because volunteers went beyond just cleaning the tank. they planted over $10000.00 cheese of native varieties using the milwaukee method, a japanese afforestation technique. this chip of forest protects the water in the tank. it's also attracted dozens of bird and butterflies species to develop dank, and the green zone surrounding it. had a northern to spread joy i had when i saw the dang fill up with water in 2018, we used to water. these plants brought to water from laurie yadi. shortly after that we used buckets to cross with the water from the tongue. it put north east along suddenly to find volunteers. the n d o reaches out to schools and colleges. yet it's most powerful tool has been social media by sharing, it's what's up link and boston clean updates. it succeed in bringing many young

people together who wish to be a part of the process. gopi is the perfect example. he joined when he was just a student to day he pitches in with his skills as the jones cinematographer then via aiming it. but let me do it for jason and so did before the cleaning, after the cleaning and after the water get restored, i read them bridge, entered 2 companies, looking to find organizations at the same time, we saw it with the government officials. this helps us get access to see as i'd opportunities and allows us to continue our work with government approval. in other look, isn't that long that they use the letter instead of us approaching people about is the uh, becoming a read on that. oh, there is a young boy who rolling peers with us. if you ask him, what do you want to be when you grow up? and he says, like you, i'll go up long trees and save lakes. now he's like, what will you do for food?

he replied, i'll go home and eat, we are see such positive changes amongst children. whereas when it is organ, it isn't even burn. defects are usually loom yet, but here it will get their hands dirty. the field, this is my home, i'll keep it clean. it is more effective the protection of water bodies requires more than restoration, increasing encroachment waste, dumping effluent discharge, and lack of proper maintenance by civic bodies or just some of the major problems. if you are near a welling of letters to people who drive you well, but there are so many duties of dia here. nobody raises questions because unlike the villager, nobody drinks this warrior not according to government to suspend the groves of rupees, to revive lexical coin. but had it made efforts to make that ready water, consumable new people would begin to get healthy. not a critical monica. none has succeeded in uniting people who care about water. now he has his site set on restoring them. no yell driver, which is the backbone of modern,

reclaimed little this river that passes to 4 districts and feeds $25.00 tanks is under threat going. but also the itself is on the bands of the neural villarreal and that that we don't drink from it in this. did we dig water, bonnie: bonnie or ali or really alan, that the number of days the water flows through this river is decreasing each day. law and we want to increase it and that's what we're now working. good. what else are then? i may say it again. i am waiting on you to would warranty organizations like money condoms. hope spread. awareness about the urgent need to save local water bodies. da may not who has over 200000 tanks and other irrigation sources, but less than 90000 of them are in use. it will take a collective effort from the government and citizens to save water for future generations. ah, this way can we tuck into a tasty snack from tunisia?

ah, ah, in the very north of africa lies present. the denisia port city has been an important maritime and trading center for more than 3 millennia. to fortify themselves between meals, residents here like to eat nut lobby and they get it here with my name's hassan, said any, i'm 22 and i've been working here with my uncle promised 12 years with his their loved lobby and spaghetti topped in different ways and freshly prepared

by cell ingredients are the hot chili, paste teresa and chic piece. soaked in water the night before they cooked in the morning. customers then choose additional toppings such as spices, cooked vegetables, garlic sardines on it and to no, ah, demand is huge. sardine prepares one le blobby after another. what makes the sandwich so popular with me about the vehicle? i like the taste. how spicy it is as an uncheck. these are good for you from america. i just like how it asians groping. it's not as unhealthy as other sandwiches that contained an oils and not so fried ingredients that aren't fresh. i

feel this one is better for you than other sandwiches. from a lot of prices between $1.00 and $1.00 and a half dinners barely 50 euro cents. it's affordable to lobby has a long tradition in bizarre. do you know who it began in the 19 seventy's sabrina, sabrina acres. several unit lab lobby started to appear in small roving carts like this one and met with great success here in the desert. and it may be in your room, i mean, a lot of the, but i will give people to your like it and buy it frequently or work at that. it was you can be a survey, runs out of to this type of sandwiches, different than in other regions. that lobby is unique to preserve, tyler? i wouldn't. mclean limited the limited sam hassan sardine supplies. these apps, residents with fresh lap lobby every day from 5 am onwards. and that's all from us this week. thanks for watching and do write to us global 3000 at d,
