so far as the government's um, really not, um, you know, not keeping pace on. this was about 3 and while these people together and acknowledging the risk of, of this technology that needs to be well, much more research and where governments really need to think about what they can do on a national and international level. well, that's true, up to date, up next is stuck full. i'll see you soon. take care by the end we've been doing is great for investigating the theme this these. everyone here just wants to get into bit calling because then known as good to coordinate rose investors from all of a moving to latin america in such a bitcoin treasure. no, it is the cryptic currency value each more high as you've been here. bits going in latin america starts november 8th on dw the since the beginning

of time, melting glaciers in the himalayas have been feeding countless rivers. they pour out of the mountain range, running like veins throughout the south asian continents. the one of the most powerful is the brahman to truck, which travels thousands of kilometers before crossing bangladesh and flowing into the bay of been go. here the river is known as june, the the gym, luna creates and floods and many islands and its course. in ben gully, these ever shifting islands, sand bars are called chalk, derived from schroeder, which means wandering. the 3000000 people who live on the islands call themselves

child us. but we don't migrate. they say the islands do. we just have to wonder alone. from june to september, during the months to the rivers tides wash up fertile settlement that produces a bountiful harvest in the dry season. the floods provide both fish and joy to the child the but they also take knowing at the shore line of the old jobs flooding the islands and causing pain the like no mans. the child has moved from flooded islands to newly emerging ones. but they are used to this. they know the river gives them fertile soil on which

they can grow and work again. a life of construction, destruction and reconstruction. the weakness dish. nothing over the last model. no see what the thing is told you. oh dear, didn't you catch anything? all right. i'm so far careful,

careful about it. that's enough for lunch. the news i have been talking to the 33 year old that i am sure to god isn't actually a fisherman, but a farmer together with his wife aliya become he feeds his 6 person household besides their 2 children, his younger brother and mother also live with the the raw him and his neighbors live on child early, but in the middle of the june the monsoons began months ago, and the river is knowing away at the island. but the tidal waves that usually flood

the jobs are not here this year. even in august the me but for us tell rose to be there is both the cost and the blessing. and here with that, you know, now flows which are really para was actually everywhere. they were both schools concrete building and we had every day for 5 minutes before the civil readings and then from the east river started pushing and ripping everything away. i was glad to do it again. say i'm, i'm sick. i'm is this all right here, a child could come up again and people could settle again. i'm of the use or the find the, the where the village of relief route is now. the moon used to flow from the big

ships used to pass by wondering if i saw it myself as a child and the child early, but has now been stable for 12 years. but it is the exception early, but is one of a dozen charge that make up the gum shot a union district. not all the islands in the district have reached such an age every few years. jemina washes away some of the jobs only to later wash up new settlement elsewhere. the not far from the heem until recently lived. shoot some on the there only one or can be seen now, because your munos has reclaimed the large parts of his former home. jemina has taken over the shoot us i'm on a farmer,

lived here with his family for 8 years. it everybody kept over here was my home, a piece of field was washed away with the property that kind of worried about here was a house over. there was a neighbor, there was another problem. anybody here was another friend of mine. 7 homes were here. the school that showed us a month son attends, must be demolished. the water is only a few meters away from its foundation. the rubble will be reused. building material is precious. it's not clear where the school will be rebuilt for now it remains closed. yeah, my, my son went to the school. my property is gone and now we are losing the school to

the ca bubble into the some in the building. you see here we build 66 years ago, so we have to take it down and think of it they did before the school was some or else. then we have to take it down due to erosion and rebuild it. tens of times we have to move at the school by the name of the monsoon season, and erosion go hand in hand. you never know which island of the river will take next northward, perhaps the this job

is only 4 years old. that doesn't make a particularly powerful impression, but farmers who don't have many fields often have no choice, but to settle here the cause. follow your mother. i mean, i could tune lives here. she is married and has 2 daughters. her husband, a seer, or dean khalifa is a farmer. unfortunately, some of his fields have flooded and he's no longer able to feed his family from field work alone. he also sells goods at the market. the

scale of the day we all have to live in a hot with the animals because we are afraid of thieves or robbers because the river is so closely if there are often river pirates. here we are poor. we have a few animals. if the thieves and robbers take that away from us, how will we survive the new zillow and it is it just last time the water was up to here up to the waist. it was very difficult to live here under the name, but then we moved to a neighbor's house for a few days and the flood hit us there too. then we had to build a rack up high to keep the animals away from the water. often we also slept on a boat and there was no gas, the water taxi, but i seems job to leave, but is stable for the moment. the people here still feels safe from jemina

and its powerful tides. but even they are not completely safe from the floods. is the dominant them you don't want? i'm that's mine. i agree with that myself. it's growing. well. it dropped out that is that the see, these arises brand new thanks to technical development and we can try new varieties look good. just the see it and they grow very well. hi. can be used as high on so many then they have to remember when i was a child, you could only harvest as the field like this a and b gave up to 50 is what i'm, what i'm gonna be a lot of moving down at the 830 the, the job and they came up from the 12 years ago. but well, people have become wise, so i'm getting ready to go to quite a whole god because somebody planned trees immediately to and get this oil and the

level one lucky pulling definitely got happy, definitely avenue. and we can eventually sell the trees later. is that one right? does business in this foundation we built in 2011 ever from after that we had to wait until the settled our mission is why the mind when the water comes onto the property here, we have to bring extra soil here, like with the boat. and then we build a hill, and then we put the animals on this hill near that can both have a lucky and for cooking. you can see the dove, and of course it gets covered with water, finding police mazda, and then we build a high rock. and on top of this, again, a new stove, we tried to keep the wood dry, and on top of it, we sits in cook. i often tell him that maybe we shouldn't move to the mainland, but he doesn't want to leave the chalk kind of. he loves the child more than anything the mainland does. that's the question for him. i'm glad that i tell her why didn't you get some money from your parents?

why don't you get 500000 tucker to buy a plot of land day, but she contract? she dreams of a house on the mainland. we just don't have the money back on the whole night ready to go to the flow that about him and his wife aliya are busy all day like her husband. she's educated a lot here on the jobs. there is no opportunity for women to put their schooling to use a li, a supports her husband in his work and earns extra money as it seems through the neighbors by their clothes, from her instead of on the mainland. the

because little harvesting takes place during the monsoons, many showed us live off of fishing during the rainy season. but in recent years, the highly sought after catch has been dwindling. the . 8 the, there are many different kinds of fish and practiced showed us can even catch them with their bare hands. the account big it is the,

the former is no longer use the fish solely to feed their families. at the port of golden down sheet, they bring their fish to be auctioned off a supplement, think their livelihood on the. 2 came to sometimes visits the market and go be not cheap. nothing to me here. the 400. 6400. 60 anyone? 7407. the 501500. 15515 nobody. then he's gone for $500.00.

the so he brings the expenses fish home for supper. the flushing can still trust that his land is safe from the rising waters. but not far away. it's a different story to do some on has given up his land and a store in parts of his house and his relatives, the yeah, old, the individual pieces of a complete hon to go to

a band if you was of another hunt. i also put them on top there. how does it say go to the other one uh, find out how i can buy when we take down no rebuild the home. so it takes a lot of people to that. how does this logistically? it's a big effort that also costs money. what it's from getting is very tedious when i started monitor the vehicle. so on the buses, but we charles help each on it. i mean that if i decide to take down my house today and tell the neighbors they come right away, we have to have this out a little bit. if i hear that another neighbor is relocating with it. he tells me on knowledge, and i go there and help take down the hunt. transported away and rebuilt it. this i think we'll try to move on. got little showers help each of the sorting more monitor optimal depth as the

shoes of mine and his family have to stay with relatives until they find a safe place for a new home. the river is rising, the as unstable as the childs are, the land and farm land on them are still surveyed and entered into the land register. all showed us keep their title deeds in case there flooded land

reappears. perhaps this time should have some on we'll get lucky and yamuna. we'll give him back the land and took the this is what it looks like before the flood waters arrive. the green grass land is food for cattle but in order to cultivate the land, the grass has to disappear. usually the flood takes care of that. when it doesn't, the farmers have to destroy the grass with chemicals in order to be able to plant the, the jude is a particularly hardy cross, but it can only be grown in the rainy season. the,

there's a reason it's called the golden thread of bangladesh. it drives even when flooded for the jude water is a friend. it likes stagnant water, the more brackish the better after harvesting, the stalks must be left to soften in the water so the threads can be pulled. the, the remaining parts of the plant are used as building and burning material. the

material dude, such as about one year old the farmers earn about 400 to 500 bureaus from the harbor. significantly more than the $100.00 to $200.00 euros they would otherwise earn from us. not with products like dude and rice. the cho does have adapted to the rhythm of the dry and during the season when it comes to electricity, they must also adapt to the rules of nature. solar panels are easy to use and the mobile until a few years ago,

expensive oil was the only source of energy for the child us today, children grow up with solar energy as the norm for 6 year old chic, it's common place the that he was brother or only chicago even runs his laptop off the panels. the computer is connected to the internet through his mobile phone. when you are done here, could you please wait the patty field? okay, i have to go to a meeting or go away and when you,

when you want to i get my product graduated. well, i'm just cool event. the timing is his great fashioning that he didn't want to do anything else. let me palm and devise anything, but i want to work as a web designer from home who were doing the brother supports me to learn as profession. i'm going to get with to buy all this equipment. so this is supposed to be financially is helping us in the visual visit. gosh, and what else is she knows here, covers it out to them. a lot of ideas. i get a get with the one thing that we don't love economical image data go to honey. i don't have any training and web design while i follow the work of professional web designers in the country. and then even the internationally known months of the, the, within a few days, the flood waters reach dangerous levels. as the river takes its toll,

no one's thinking about the fertile settlement. it breaks. even though the floods will ensure to a bountiful harvest for the child us in the coming dry season, the money is the water has been standing here in the field for 3 days. 7 days ago it started to rise. first, the river was swollen. then in the last 3 days, the water ended from here. if the water just continues to rise folder rice will be lost on what it is a good. i figured it was the, i don't know if i'm lucky enough to save this rice crop. it's growing so beautiful in the bottle. here at the finish. me see find the water is close to l. ya. now move when the children play here. they

could fall into a hole in it for that it's dangerous. i want to take a bath papa hyphen good. no, you just had a shower when a good day they are loaded. well, that's how it is a life for you. in a few days ago, we were working on this pos, everything was do drive, and now we're walking in the water that about the water. sometimes the water comes up to a chest or over a hill. sometimes there is even a current to you will die. so he seems relaxed about the flooding. this aaliyah is more concerned. the ground near their home is still dry. but if the water enters the yard everyday life will become much more difficult.

as evidenced than this footage from the past quarter century, the child us have had to develop extraordinary survival skills to adapt to the flood floods which the child us they are increasingly worse due only in part to nature. a bridge was built here 25 years ago. forcing the once 14 kilometer wide river and to a narrower channel. the child say that until the bridge was built, the floods were not as dramatic as they are today. the,

this time there was only one tidal wave and the monsoon season. it left behind huge amounts of fertile soil that had to be till the dry season has long since become now 5 months later, its harvest time. the. the but uh she uh, jo mode. it guy to me. uh, but uh she uh, not to be long done. that the hard no,

but she loved me. go look, gone all monday had the bus to come back from you. but he was not lucky with his rice field. the water destroyed the crop, but he was able to save his other field of the the

landscape, which until now was a disaster area. suddenly looks very different. it now gives the impression one can live well here. it is a different world, but distances that could be covered quickly by boat or water taxi in the monsoon season. now take much longer the in the monsoon season,

the water is overwhelming. now it is scarce. let farmers desperately need it to irrigate their fields. the soil is still what in some places and good for planting. rice. rice can be grown all year, but must be harvest it before the floods come the

it's not just the rice that grows here. throughout the dry season, the child as are busy harvesting one field after another at ground knots, mays, sweet potatoes, mustard, and corey, and are keep it out. he busy the number of bobby, that's literally what i'm gonna do. it actually sink. there is a river here. all these floods a like a blessing for us. i'm one of the because the more often to fly to comes, the better it is for our farm. and i want the more we can grow stuff to dorothy this book, the lucky more this is just you right when the monsoons come most, when it's all about this is l farmland. that these fields only lie on plants at the 2 or 3 mountains on over the just where they are flooded up. i mean, peggy, only during this time can we not talk today is the ticket. then when everything is

a group, i wonder what it is. that's why i think we live in the river, but it doesn't seem like the november move data key. i'm of the portuguese. i'm a gland of soil here has a big advantage. we don't necessarily always need the plants. sometimes you just say send for the bar example here, the soil into the see how the peanuts a thriving problem. but you can see how drive the soil is california making business in that suit model. the but he was neighbor, pseudo some on has been lucky that jeff port island has reappeared from the river. he owns a plot of land on it. the soil is nice and high and it seems to be protected from the erosion that cost him hudson fields during the last month soon. now he's building the foundations for his new home. here. it will need to be high enough to

stay afloat during the next flood as well. that's why i'm taking over the course inbox. now we are moving from the east and to the west and signed style of, of the problems that we can actually make a good living from finding new tank. we're calling chat from them. but this erosion, the pro body body that will just say kind of model by example, this house that i have to rebuild here. it will cost me most a $1000.00 view row. so all together, i could have saved this money, but i'm forced to spend it a little promo. that's the problem for us. the child really have to do it every 3 or 4 years. the river eats away my property by the way. i cannot keep my savings at the bottom in terms of talking about the the

even though there are no trees here yet to fortify the island. the new plot looks promising. the river is a safe distance away. i should have some on plan to move ahead of time and all the neighbors are pitching in the things are looking good for showed us a month and at the moment. but no one knows when juno will get hungry again and start knowing on the shore line. the

most of the told us are developed muslims praying 5 times a day, however, is something very few do. but no farmer wants to miss the spiritual chancing at harvest time. in late february the anybody to school, the teacher. what did he say? he said i should study hard. i invited him to our house. to did you see the house? i think so, but check because of the google drive by playing

the road. that's right. and what's that, that to you along you look, see these rough to you. yeah. do you know what that's made? ok, well banana tree, right? whatever. and what did they put on this roster? the how is it that she and that will do and to look at the go that's the boys this, the see how sketchy is she's afraid of falling into the water. you will find me with the bit of like a yeah. but i'm not afraid of the water. the a child of noted food has also survived the monsoon. but now there is a lot to do in the fields. i mean, those husband associated with dean can take care of their younger daughter. she doesn't have to travel far to work. this means i mean i can take care of the older daughter schooling and have more time for housework the

. my father was a capital trader, as a child who used to take me with him, and i watched him alone and how the business works. do you have? i didn't finish school, so i have to and my money is a salesman. i managed a little bit until the 7th grade i my parents married me off so i couldn't get in, you know, if a lot of people that are so the we are poor child on the with the know do the girls get married off quite early, but if and when you're married, you can't go to the 1st because then you have to work at home, but that's a little i would have had

a good chance to finish school because my parents made an effort, but i blew i to the room. so probably one of those are the states like you are blind even though your eyes are healthy, the people who have education or they can see properly, they can understand everything and do a lot of things with their lives. everything is much easier for the one that, that and those who have no education at all. they are like blind people with healthy. i think that's how it is. there are even people who can't write their own name or the pipe. i can home educate my children up to grade stuff. i never nobody just because of of the like another bundle. no, no, no, no, no, that's enough. one more. wait until next time here i want to take one more minute. that's enough, and i want another one. you wouldn't make it. i well,

the, the dry season has brought a good harvest and some security. the rice dogs are a precious commodity because they feed the most important thing of all the animals . they have to be stored outside so that the floods wont reach the papa. look, look what i have here. my goodness, so much. where do i put it? bring it here. place. for 6 year old chic life on the child is still an adventure. he doesn't know what's in store for the family. the monsoon season. with it, a time of uncertainty will begin again the even though the family knows how to deal with the rhythm of nature,

there is no secure foundation for an easy life. aliyah knows that the move you have to cross the river here every time to bring in the harvest. that's going to be hard again. because you did you grow crops the last you know, even further away and i think that was very exhausting. you would, you were dancing and we wanted to keep up. and while i don't know yet how to make it this year, are you coming home? is that no, i don't want to. why not doing the okay. did you possible, why didn't you get some help of the, the, to the of, of them we've got to pay more lower. you know, the women who work in the fields carry a huge stacks of pain on the, when the used to it. so what i've never done that was up in the diamond bible. why

shouldn't you you can try it sometime. they look at a got a home. no, i don't want to. as i'm supposed to do everything myself or what, who else i can learn. when do i go, then i was hoping that's at some point we would live on the mainland so that the children could go to school. do you have assets there on the mainland a galaxy? i thought well, you don't want to give up your fields here. you also couldn't your job in the city just to plow on the charles all the time, but that's not enough for allowing it a negative. we'll see. one way, i guess, i guess you want me to toilet line in town and send you money so you can have a good life sort of then keep digging into sam's. you don't need to go up. but i tell that to your sons, because they should make money on the mainland and build a life day. i'll stay here on the job. many child us think like that here. they may never give up this land, but to constance,

remain the child shifting nature and the child us desire for security, the music from the new home and to the young musicians of touring. the especially since a rita. this is an impulse and active resist. the young cousins fled from the focus in 30 minutes island palm
