i wouldn't be johnson darned to searches for the truth again. at this time, at the exile to turkish journalist meets svetlana itsyana, sky, exiled leader of the opposition in bella. reuss. of course, i'm tired. i'm tired. physically untied. morally, it's too much on my shoulders. by that i have to hold this weight because i am responsible for the future fall country for the people far behind the boss. guardians of truth starts february 18th on d. w. ah, ah, ah, welcome to global 3000. strengthen numbers, how thousands of volunteers in india,

i helping to save local lakes and rivers. dwindling diversity. how the seed industry is booming at the cost of crop variety. and finding hope how guatemala is trying to turn the tide on its migration crisis. at the end of 2021, one in 5 refugees world wide, came from south and central america. the exit is, is caused by political crisis and lack of food collapsing, health care systems, and also corruption and rising crime. that 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. ah,

oh oh oh oh, the us border is about 2300 kilometers away. and our fire cock racks would love nothing more than to just keep on writing and leave the hardship of life in guatemala pinter. like half the population of the country, he works in agriculture. extreme weather is increasing the frequency of droughts and floods. farmers are anxious about the future. ah! look at this measly corn. com a they're supposed to be much bigger. ah, these days the harvest is barely enough to even feed his own family. with a recent hurricane left havoc in its wake, the damage will have lost in consequences. need if you have to dig 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, o climate change corruption, violence. he and millions of others in guatemala despair for the countries future. a study shows that $1.00 and $6.00 guatemalans emigrate to the us. mcallister. mia 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. why is thought either a new lady up there earlier say what i meant? the quando been almost the younger generation were better trained. they could find

work in their unity for manya or even start their own business edelman or feel. e boggled used to holland 12 had thought skills and potential bola for to strengthen their communities and is heroin and the country low bung again, like on one year out by fair could i say this, they buy that many young people struggle to even get to a training center on a regular basis, they often have to travel long distances, and infrastructure is lacking. that is why is there mir since the teachers into the community? this young man trained as a welder and got a job with his small business. and with labarte pick one on me, i have no idea where might be able to lead a better life. and the you are more than that and less a little can. but what's the point? and if your family, your friends and your home, i here is more that are young, i'm not exemplary nettle. but if that is in the home in the central kiddos is thriving. and the project is now expanding. it's co founded by the guatemalan

government and the u. s, and it's one of many projects designed to encourage the younger generation to remain in the country. it's appears to be working but despite these initiatives, growing numbers of people who are turning to crime, villanueva's considered the most dangerous place in the country. gangs control the city which is riddled with corruption. any one who resists must fear for their life . like one sandeval. he was the government, santi corruption, prosecutor until july 2021. but his investigations into former officials, presidents and business leaders, lead to his dismissal. he now lives in exile in washington, d. c. i o left the about the little napa political and power are taking advantage for population that starving my life one is going to let me look at a population that can barely survive. the resource of labor lay, no corruption,

creates the conditions like that, make it impossible for them to earn a living failure. not up wealth, happiness by simple methods. yeah. public schools are only open for hours, a day, aid organization. glossing international is trying to help. glass wing 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. for lack of the february, it'll have yearly. when we hear guatemala, we think of violence, hunger, danger, and gang. so little things, 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 were among the li, narrow. so for me, larry, the yeah, the organisation 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 finance see like i'm convinced that it's worth it. that's one reason that just look at the smiling faces and the dreams they hated it though as the different viewpoint article from me. and so to look to see all of that in a place where i never know if i'll make it back alive. when i step outside, see yeah, maricel from dorothy. well, it could be them if we didn't, even if we speak different languages, we're basically all the same. we are human beings. 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. come in, well, half i 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 the 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 as controlled by just a handful corporations. and they decide what's grown in our fields and what ends up on our plates. a $1000000000.00 industry of the cost of plant diversity for thousands of years, farmers free bread preserved and shared seat. but then agriculture radically changed. in the 20th century, farmers got new machines, chemicals, and locked me seats. and big companies stepped in. these major players dominate the market to be one of them had a special role in shaping more than not great culture, especially in the us now owned by german, one national buyer was funded was one of the giants of the business to turn seed into property and farmers into submissive customers to understand how they did it.

it's important to know the history during the vietnam war, one santa was one of the largest suppliers of the notorious edge and orange for the u. s. military. 50000000 lead. the result is definitely herbicide was prior to fuel trees and tropical foliage that provided cover for the competitors. not only do this areas remain contaminated, millions have been poisoned by the chemical next month hunter turned the attention to peacetime whip, killing, developing the blog, buster hab site roundup. it hit shelves in the $970.00 s and became the company's key. profit driver ah, run down kills the root kills that we'd round up kills thanks to its main component . cliff a said, but it ended up killing so well that it also killed farmers crops. so they could only sprayed before planting seats after the harvest. but what if the receipts that could tolerate thrown up that's home and found who stepped into the sea business?

in 1996, they rolled up round up ready, div receipts that were genetically modified to be immune to gleeful sate. who wouldn't buy into that? it was like magic if you talk to farmers at that number. marco elmore is an environmental historian at the higher state university to spend a decades working on this book about monsanto. we, it's almost immediately began developing resistance around that. and you kind of have this cycle in this genetically engineered scene system now over using a chemical, which by the way, it's very profitable for the company that's selling. and 100 did something else that changed agriculture 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 monsanto and similar companies was growing more and more. today. 90 percent of corn upland cotton employed being from the u. s. a. produce was patent and seat mon font, the order the buyer is the biggest supplier. the big promise behind genetically engineered crops like those from santo 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. scientists found little evidence that such crops actually lead to higher yield. what has been going on is the use of monsanto's post the child cliff, a site to move youth hair beside globally. this to maps of the us showed the amount 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 thirty's ation. awful company owning this, you get to choose with farmers girl, and how and that determines what we eat, planting the same varieties also makes crops more vulnerable 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 will tolerate hash climatic conditions, especially now that we emphasize them on climate change, you can always go back to the seeds that have not been selected. this is them or is, or then she is a plant geneticist at the international crops research institute of the sammy area, tropics. the more different seats we plant, the higher the chances of finding the ones that can adapt to extreme weather. for example, in just one region and south east india, scientists discovered almost 400 varieties of neglected crop species. and more of

them were 6 traditional local rise varieties that deal better with drought, salty soils and flooding strength compared to commercial alternatives. luckily, even when traditional seeds are gone from the fields, they're not always gone gone. we have them in places like these. more than $1700.00 c banks around the world store that untapped potential of traditional seats. probably the most famous you'd bank or it is the coolest looking one, is this one in norway. it stores or a 1000000 sid samples from across the world, and the chile permafrost conditions make sure this little fellows are preserved for centuries. the system works like a bank, the deposit there owns the samples, the bank. in this case, the government of norway owns the facility. for example, brazil has thousands of seats and here some of the seeds were rescued only because indigenous communities and traditional farmers kept them there where we grow all foot has drastically changed. if the latch corporations will have benefited at the

expense of everyone else, farmers have got hooked on chemicals and last ownership of the seats and consumers miss out on so many flavors and nutrients. so it's time to ask ourselves, how can we grow food better this time for every one. mm hm. mm. mm. is an increasingly scarce commodity in many parts of india, the rainy season is getting shorter, heat wave longer and trouts more frequent. 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's what it looked like before the clean up and after. and it happened in less than 2 hours in that our we have had $25.00 to $30.00 talk and i will not be as who have worked with us. got it not be blocking to make a positive contribution to society. i'm looking for you, the hard part is organizing it. money. got done. is the founder of the indio,

called curriculum that by the gobbler. my, it's volunteers have been distorting what a body's across claim at all for the past 5 years. and this is how they do it. so a she's 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 globular? yes, but i'm just waiting. i to distribute supplies. i heard about housing long ago. 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 severe shout money. condon was determined to revive one of the city's driest water bodies better . when you produce 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

a visa, normal flare decline. we began cleaning activities on the 12th of february, 2017 maniac. in the 1st week, 50 shoreline, but better, but in the weeks after 400 people showed a loss of in just a moment while we finished eating the tank. are you the part of it? 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 hoping, melinda, anna mccullen, then at a period. so we decided to clean up various water bodies every sunday. so far we have been working for 249 consecutive sundays, either medicare no dame with dumb worth of arnold gordon in, idaho. my tomorrow's. the organization has restored for large leaks, 9 small ponds and more. but if you ask money canden, which project was hardest, 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 claim with those oldest. it's fed by the no loose river for

15 years and remain dry because of 3 major problems that blown the day there will not set in this account here under canada, water hadn't been a lot of people, hadn't crossed on foot and a half of the 6 and a half kilometer long, not on either side of the river banks and garbage had been dumped into the jack dams to which this dang receives the water. these were the 3 problems somebody. morning, 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, only once laughed at reliable water sauce. but just a few months after the reservation was completed,

locals noticed an increase in groundwater levels because the velo tank could now retain the water it received back in the you only have armed if it dream file. if it didn't, i was. he wouldn't farm boring since days water in the tank for the past 4 years. there's been water in our veil when you're good. we use them wouldn't bump out the water for farming rosario, wondering what on the last to buy 200 to 200 liters of water every day. mama, it's much better now because i cannot get water when i, when i need it at home on my savings, having greece as a result, loa with me, and one of the jungles able to hold in water again. it's not only people who have benefited from it and from the ground water regenerating itself. this tank has now also become a habit dot for various species. that's because volunteers when beyond just cleaning the tank, they planted over 10000 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. at a more than a spread joy i had when i saw the dang fill up with water in 2018, we used to water. these plants brought over laurie id shortly after that. we used buckets to cross with the water from the tongue it put ne, long suddenly, to find warranty of 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 a jones cinematographer then we had any particular league, we do it for jason and so did before the cleaning, after the cleaning and after the water get restored,

read them bridge entered 2 companies looking to find organizations at the same time, we saw it to 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 lucas under the along the days for let me instead of us approaching people about is the uh, becoming a read on did all of that. there is a young boy, you all in peers with awesome. if you ask him, what do you want to be when you grow up? he says, like you, i'll go up long trees and save lakes now. but what will you do for food? he replied, i'll go home and eat. we are seeing such positive changes amongst children. whereas when it is, are going, it isn't even weren't. the effects are usually loom yet, but here since 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 relative winters to people who drive you well, but there are so many dirties of data here. nobody raises questions because unlike the villager, nobody drinks this warrior not according to government to suspend the girls of repeats to revive licks and coin, but had it made efforts to make ready the water consumable. you knew people would begin to get healthy. not academical monica, none has succeeded in uniting people who care about water. now he has his sights set on restoring them. no yell driver, which is the backbone of modern, reclaim little this river that passes to 4 districts and feeds $25.00 tanks is under threat. gwen but all city itself is on the banks of the normal river levelland, but 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 witness are

then i may say it again. i waited and argued with 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 come, we tuck into a tasty snack from tunisia. a in the very north of africa lies present. the to nissan. 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 not lobby and

they get it here with my name's hudson said any, i'm 22 and i've been working here with my uncle promise. 12 years. when is there, lab lobby is begets topped in different ways and freshly prepared ah. by so ingredients are the hot chilly, paste teresa and chick peas soaked in water the night before they cooked in the morning. the customers then choose the additional toppings such as spices, cut to vegetable 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 unchecked. these are good for you, so my mother can pick up. okay, but i just like how it isn't the group of. mm hm. it's not as unhealthy as other sandwiches that contained an oils and lots of fried ingredients that are 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? debit or credit sibling, it could be several unit up. lobby started to appear in small roving carts like

this one and met with great success here in desert. maybe a woman can like a lot of the, but i with can people to your like it and buy it frequently or worked on it was you korea survey runs out of to this type of sandwiches, different than in other regions that lobby is unique to preserve tyler, i would in the clean theme. they may have to live in a house on sardine supplies, visits, 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, w dot com or on facebook d w global ideas. bye bye. ah . with

ah. a with a green giant with amazing power. the dumper is the largest electric truck in the world. more and more of these battery

powered behavior hit the market every year, whether on the test track or on the road, the future of mobility is emission free and electrify, read 90 minutes on d, w. o. how many push it out in the world right now? the climate change, if any, off the story, this is much less the way from just one week. how much was going to really get we still have time to go. i'm going with his subscriber all morning with several did. and right wing extremists, i tried to progress and again,

well, my, we in couple of late in, in south africa, people with disabilities more likely to lisa jobs. independent, make black lives matter. shine a spotlight on racially motivated police violence, same sex marriage is being legalized in more and more countries. discrimination and inequality are part of everyday life. for many, we ask why? because life is diversity. make up your own mind in d. w. need for mines cheers that it would go to collection. interesting. you mouth right. you will send this new generation. the girls must the end of a superpower. the collapse of the soviet union rushes
