the one will show you how climate change and environmental conservation is taking shape around the world and how we can make a difference. knowledge grows through sharing. download it now for the how to make our dock sick was a little better. i know, i don't mean blocking your toxic friends and social media. hello and welcome. i'm sorry because the body and you all watching equal in our modern industrialized world is producing more toxins than ever before. that knowing our food in our and even on water, water quality across several parts of the world is getting worse. you ended up as us that 80 percent of the was the waste water is discharged back into the
3:31 pm
environment without any proper treatment. so where do we stand right now and what can be done? let's dive into today's episodes to find more on, says ben, google, the city with the housing lakes now only has a few 100 of them left on both. so i couldn't sell me anything with ducks look now these links are being revised, and that is a benefit even for the food in this i to help. but how are licks, especially toxic lakes and kitchens connected to each other? let's find out. i'm not going to do is taking care of the landscape at the nature he lives in jekyll. that's about opening a new to the city has become lucky i to help in recent decades. and it is the scrolling day, but once about 2000 leagues here. but no more than 3 quarters of them have
3:32 pm
disappeared. it again, i get into it was that the problem is that people want more space and more development. i've gotten rid of it. so the government describing, i would look at these hit and do what that can do, leasing all the sewage water into these leak leaks are fine, but this huge water needs to be filtered, treated and kept clean. what a pretty good a marty bleed i gave you, the vehicle and the being called your most is a senior fellow at the ciocca trust for research. she tries to explain how this development could have happened. now the water supply interest sector developed. but what happened is the researcher teeth went intrusted did not develop at the same base as a result strong what their genes ritual getting historically only rainwater started receiving on to, to, to be smart. and this on to did wastewater started slowly into these leaks with
3:33 pm
caustic consequences. in march of 2021, the lender leg caught fire again. 6 years after the previous 500000000 liters of untreated waste water continued to flow into the league each day. and the engineering not only look on the fly, life toxic substances have long been filed in the areas farmland, the largest tv that much ended up of the indian institute of science investigated the effects of the thing i lose polluted legs on livestock and crops. reconnected to reach them, but then the government, the downstream of the nate, you know, and they also at the beginning a, the, i the on fish except all the me. ok. when we analyze all the, the food costs, the ad, it'd be made up. they wouldn't put them in the book, jamie,
3:34 pm
cbs guns that they're not that this web the, you do the read for you sure. like can still technique. they don't accept the evidence on of the problems. you know, now new to citizens, initiatives, and organizations in the city. people here want to clean the x back. the community college has made it his job to clean the legs. 40 years ago he set up a foundation to make it easier to, to use the necessary funds because it won't look the old money. yeah, i think type of makes one is i did. one is filled with which one is naturally. so they did like a lot of changes in the top of your feet, catchment area addition and logged off, not lost as being this type. you open up the now let's see that what do we learn to be like? and they like to watch the holding capacity to a sprint with seeing a lot of the risk based. and that'll be the more everything is idea keen no longer
3:35 pm
late spring water flow into the leaks instead. let's see funny. this is intended to revitalize the slides. micro climate entry started, as i said, we did for wildlife. ringback that the water in the league is naturally beautified by the reeds and floating islands that go to clouds. but you can go to a lot of things, natural, beautification alone. there's not enough to address pollution coming from base. what does the need to have these wastewater treatment plants need to be solutions? loans, they are supplementary to the systems themselves. are not sufficient. even though bank the little has just invested in 7 sewage treatment plans. they're not enough to to, to the slaughter of the metro, pointless of 10000000. the this is chuckle, lake at $160.00 hector's. it was one of the cities. biggest echo just so much in
3:36 pm
the us team has combined log base purification here. but some protect because of water treatment what we did was we ended the depth of a bed. what led and all they found with the statements, i saw a large proportion of to plus what a speed and nitrogen end could be. to move to pull that from the different brands, all that removing the good, we go, i, when it was supposed to look up selected red flag, the 3 was that again, made up by the beginning and some bar don't be why we live and it wasn't through the, the icon for did remove the legal part of the month by the, in the bank a little devil up at the top. the initiated duty violation of double click and it is now managed by through her bank a little more. knock it up by the case of civic buddy and the citizen group, just pushing past the lake country supports the livelihood of 70 percent families
3:37 pm
who have been centered to its upkeep. difficulties, you know, we have the entire community like we have the glass good. does we have the vision men's? we have the home dogs, we have the local center groups. so we have many things happening at the lake. so it's like a be good connect of the community, give it at least a quarter to do some more involved. then finally, the convergence has conservation. if anybody wants to comes of this mix, even if everyone but to contribute to maintaining the quality of the leak water, the duty to water, what does to not be? think of it, but i can't gigabyte of course, but it's difficult to use the water for daily purposes. it has to be filtered, really valid. sometimes the league stainless everything that the government is doing is fine, protecting beautification, etc. but the water didn't not build are still of the cut, the one sewage treatment plants and think a doodle only reported to be scientifically money to for waste water treatment.
3:38 pm
contaminated food continues to be a problem. as untutored waste water is still being used for farming of the state, the and also being decommissioned. a vast majority of loss of shipping vessels are scraped on the south asian shores forming a major risk for the walk us and to the cost of the ecosystem. come with us on an investigative wage to go on. the was 2nd largest ship breaking yard to witness these environmental impact 1st and who did? does a 32 year old fisherman spent off of his life catching fish alone? the she took on the coast line a bundle dish, but recently dusk noticed a troubling change in the mirror raynichol system. it will have one on it must be
3:39 pm
the most much more efficient. good ones. the boat would be full, the to next, you know, even $20.00 to $30.00 net, so fish less than that on the fish. i'm including the job. so just how to do so one of the many even left the area after sending that property is to dp debts. less than it was easy, he blames the broken up ships along the shore for polluting the water research shows that up to 10 percent of a giant ships weight is made above as best holes. heavy metals boil and other toxic substances due to poor management in these yards. toxic material ends up being the environment still go is the 2nd largest city in bangladesh. the northeastern part of the sports city guarantees home to 40
3:40 pm
. she breaking yachts, spending approximately 20 kilometers along the coast research everybody vote who has examined the marion biodiversity here but to be able to hear. okay, uh for each one of these last ideas on the fisherman. a long gone subject on the coastline. last 25, a species of fish. one of the most important elements of letting bio diversity, macro bent is like snails and oysters, on most extent, on this coast line to deck on 5 bill people. i totally get to talk to a guy and she took him to tow near the cpr. i see that she break. god wants to share his experience and only mostly i just put it on paper. they said david, provide protective, get such as boats. helmets gloves regularly, but the problem is replacements and never for the ones who are new to new people
3:41 pm
more so that goes to resort to using dollars as make shift. most folks as protection. but now i'm level of need this for the new drums with them. so i just looked at the end of the, i'm gonna keep breaking these goes is a very dangerous job. and workers often suffer accidents in 2022 alone and usually pulled it up is 10. that's and 33 injuries long term health issues out of 20 problem for many workers environmental field since you took them say more long term research is needed to determine the extent of environmental impacts on the slide. please of showing that the labels succeed, w h o c on the health standard it, i'm a digit, the comprehensive, the studies from element departments i just mentioned for a better assessment because it is, i'm the tribute to say
3:42 pm
there is one us on an environmental lawyer an activist feels that the government is not responding properly to the hazards of breaking for human health. wants to sit breaking industry office to people, experiencing poverty is not employment, but catholics and sort of like asbestosis and cancer. is there a teacher at vistas d v. d, b, c, b, western environment in the bottom under the section fruitless. besides a lack of equipment and release to ship saying that nobody is dis phone except for the in between. when it is precisely the in, but with that is all the problem according to international local law. i do not see any significant sort of these inspections that you use. 2013,
3:43 pm
she breaking recycling regulation mandates, eco friendly shape, dismantling, and prohibits europe and ships from being scrapped outside approved yards. despite these investigations show that you will be in flag ships are often dismantled in salvation yards. so convincing the rules to turn the body saves and flag changes the recent documents obtained by dw and color incomplete ownership details highlighting enforcement challenges. the matter of fact, a lot of shipping companies based in the global north. uh and you are a, for instance, when they have to, we legally exploit the ship for breaking to south asia. the, they often these were present fox and lied to authorities about the final destination of the vessel as a way to avoid being coats in response to inquiries. the u commission. acknowledge
3:44 pm
to them as a city for stronger implementation of the you feel recycling regulation. but stated that enforcing laws properly is the responsibility of law enforcement and national courts in member states. what does she breaking industry makes is crucial for obama. this is economy providing steve and jobs. fun with dish has recently ratified the home convention on save ship recycling, making it the se consolidation nation to do so after india and this renovated shipyard and see talking to one of the owners claims to be the standards as this was the separate. but i don't know, 2 separate specials, do you need a special machine which be have imported from europe, glucose, so fronted the center this management festivities built even process centers of the holidays. thank you. want to separate us here. and here's the orange water
3:45 pm
separator. this separates on from water into this thing, all of that go to the tank and e as a whole lot of my product and the water is discharged into the see the, what i mean, what that, what about the video from the shipyard has a concrete beating so face, designed to push really support the beach and even though back in tucker, environmental activists, that son is not happy with any provision of beating under the home convention to the demos to greenwashing a countries including all the fish a bundle of days to sign the hong kong convention, which permits beating, however, would not be allowed between within its borders. bundle dishes, governments should adhere to european standards. differentiation in certain cases is not acceptable. to really address the environmental damages and
3:46 pm
bundle dish solid international grooves. we don't do fulls or isn't she a recycling old vessels? into scrap, we'd be lost income source, but this means more ships continue ending up on solid issue in cost. clearly as the sol shipwrecks, auto major problem and add items, national jewels are needed to make a difference. let's head to ship yard in belgium to understand the business of ship wrecking the complicated process of recycling and the possibilities and challenges, or it's an attractive job. it's, it's a, it's every a changing job. you go different shipped different types of chips, a different methods of working. so it's a very various jump if you want, with temperatures just above freezing and rain falling steadily. his enthusiasm seemed admirable. the boss and his nearly 20 strong team know their ships inside
3:47 pm
out. you would think they've been to see themselves. they know exactly what they can extract from former navy boats. for example. the civilian i have here on the road. they are of you into the ships, many precious metals we get so many different materials out of that, all the cop uh, brown or different allies with other ships. it's a bit different on the boat is which on the here at this recycling yard in belgium . all materials are neatly separated and disposed of if necessary. the toxic materials are stored in a separate hall and treated as hazardous waste. a large proportion of the ships can be recycled and then sold on the obviously the ship is maybe 90 percent
3:48 pm
of scrap anyway. but all the rest of the materials also recycled like uh, woods uh, oils all the stuff. so we, we are 97 to 98 percent of uh, recycling. and it's only a very small proportion that ends up in landfill. the steel is sorted separately. it's an important raw material for companies that build new ships. peter winton tells us the belgian authorities visit every 3 months to ensure that safety standards are being met and everyone is wearing protective gear. staff here are well aware of how bad the working conditions are for the majority of their colleagues in asia and who it's not good alternative safety. is there a lot of accidents nearby on the loss of difficulty that people are allowed on the ship just as they are?
3:49 pm
there's all your flowing out. it's not like that here. everything is on your has to comply with international standards and last, which is how it should be. what was the with 1010. but none of the big container ships end up here. only small fishing trawlers or the occasional navy or police boat. even the biggest shipping companies still send their vessels to asia or turkey for scrapping because it's much cheaper. the european union has a list of ship breaking yards approved for their environmental standards and work or safety. but only around 40 of them are actually in europe. it's quite clear that here in, in, in, in europe we all already very regulated by all the legislation, which is not the case in the, in other countries like turkey or let alone asia. and these, these people liked and 13, we've got uh today we got 9 yard. so i think on the
3:50 pm
e your list. and they are not competing with the same standards as us, european based yards. so they are taking the market, the weight from us. some of the methods used to ship ranking your it's in asia are extremely harmful to the environment, include the practice of deliberately beaching the ship, which is prohibited in europe. experts are calling for tougher rules. making the european shipping companies directly responsible for following european law when they're sending their muscles for for recycling. so that would be one way of strengthening the regulation. europe. ship ranking yards should actually be getting more custom. the european ship owners association been co sense. the number of vessel slinked in for recycling is set to double over the next 8 years, reaching 15000. the hope is that the larger shipping companies will be willing to cut their profit margins and have more ship scrapped in europe. the release of the
3:51 pm
shipping such to kind of forward to do it sustainably. and when they say that it costs a fortune is kind of twisting and twisting it. but the issue because they will also re, i mean money by selling their muscles for cycling in your advice. so it has value, it's a lot them good quality scraps too. but peter winton, is skeptical. his shipyard was one of the 1st to gain use certification 10 years ago, but he says the ship owners have a huge lobby, allowing them to avoid scrapping their vessels in europe. they planning to change the waste ship and regulation. so in order to put ation yards on the, on your list and i think whenever that happens we all back to square one. i think the best thing to do is that your flag chips just must be recycled on you based
3:52 pm
yards. scrapping these 2 fishing trawlers won't bring in much profit, but for now the big boats are sailing to cheaper and less restrictive shores linkages and spend from septic tanks are north of the site. in fact, in sufficient sewage water management damages the environment, and several other parts of the world. that as an entrepreneur in mulatto who has come up with a sustainable solution, bio septic tanks that can also recycle sewage water. the water, the v vi is folding over his flowers was recently used to wash the dishes. all the waste water from his house ends up in a bio tank. mm hm. um april may and then what do we do? we should keep natured in mind because it is the ultimate power of the moment, so we should try our best not to put a new phone number here to go with
3:53 pm
a conventional septic tank. the waste water is elected, an empty that they get into is it's not uncommon for that. we support uh to end up in rivers and lakes, but using the environment according to cyber akash from the city of glen. but those are the bio tanks, the sewage water gets recycled, it can be used for different purposes, are drained into the ground, doing the new wonder. this is how it works. all the waste water from a house whose ends up in a collection tank. there it is mixed with enzymes. they hope the bacteria to convert the sludge into water very quickly from their bosses to the filtration pack . here, small body goes are connected and treated again. at the end, the purified water is discharged from the tank. some folded into the ground. are those water they've got in with it like viva. he has to get used to having a biological toilet. but it didn't take long. but data alone, and then i'm a,
3:54 pm
what do we say in a cautious one thing that we need to be cautious about is cleaning generally. we clean once or twice a week, but it's important not to use any citrix products at all in red cases. if we are, we are on vacation for a month or if someone accidentally uses acid for cleaning, then there's a chance that the bacteria can dialed on it on the muddy but to the level of the land we have. oh really? so the enzymes that you have which is safe to do on the body, otherwise it is generally low maintenance and then they wonder if anybody get on that. so maintenance under this phone, but i'm not going to be down. the eco friendly bio dogs have another advantage, the cost only half as much as the conventional septic tanks. they may be made of concrete metals of plastic, depending on the location and the conditions for the customer going to kick them without really the 1st examine. the area of, of the tank is to be better if it's low covey visit the site in person. if it's
3:55 pm
somewhere it is, we ask them to send us a video we. we also need information like how many people are living in the household and how frequently? yes. is this at the house? we then designed the tank according a little bit of normally. oh, it does have a capacity of 1000 lead time because you know to daniel, but you know, i lived a couple of seating owners don't even need to clean the bio septic tanks themselves . that do is done by the eco friendly bacteria on free of charge. well, it doesn't sound very yummy, but it's a pretty common practice of crossing before. um california recycling switch, what pulled up costs, but increasingly as lots of scarcity becomes a real check for millions across the globe, we would have to do several more such things to ensure that our water bodies are less and less but you but you let me know what would you like to see more off on the show? you can email us or reach out to me directly on my social media handles. i will see
3:57 pm
the dates and i appreciate if i sent a died started make sense for me anymore. i've already tried everything. but what about this new approach? personalize nutrition. one blood sugar experiment, offer some insight, measurements of yourself and your responses to different fluids. this is even more important, and the result is a special diet for your body type. in 15 minutes on the w to the point strong and clear position,
