how to make our toxic would literally beto. i know, i don't mean blocking your toxic friends and social media. hello and welcome. i'm so have you got the body and you all watching equal in our modern industrialized world is producing more toxins than ever before. that now in 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 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. i'm bolster so i couldn't stand the native with dr. look, now these lakes are being v lives and that is a benefit even for the food in this id hub. um, but how are licks especially talks like lakes and kitchens connected to each other?

let's find out a not that i do is taking care of the landscape at the nature he lives in dakota, but some of opening a new to the city has become lucky i to help in recent decades. and it is scrolling to but once about 2000 leagues here, but no more than 3 quarters of them have disappeared. it again, i get into it was that the problem is that people want more space and more development. i've got another one. so the government is copying all localities here and the what that can do, leasing all the sewage water into these leak leaks out fine. but this huge water needs to be filtered, treated and kept clean, but a pretty good marty lee. and i gave you the vehicle and the being called your mazda is a senior fellow at the actual cut 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 resource or teeth, random suspect, it did not develop at the same place as a result, strong what their genes ritual getting historically on these in water started receiving on to, to, to be smart. and this onto did waste water started slowly into these leaks with drastic consequences. in march of 2021 blunder league 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 found in the areas farmland. the echo just tv that much ended up of the indian institute of size investigated the effects of things that lose polluted legs. one livestock and crops

be connected to reach them, but then the government, the downstream of the nate, you know, i'm, they also the, the a, the, i, the fish, except the me. ok. when we analyze all the, the food costs the full ad, it'd be made up, they wouldn't let them in the book. jamie, the cd has gone. so they're not that this web the, the, you, the read for you sure like can still could meet. they don't accept the evidence on the other hand, over the problems, you know, now new to citizens, initiatives and organizations in the city. people here frontier, convicts back on monday. god has made it his job to clean the lakes or 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 they bought the lakes one is i did. when it's finished,

it's which one is naturally. so they did like a lot of changes in the top of your feet, catchment area of vision. and the loss has been this type. you open up the now let's see that. what do we learn to the lake? and deluxe, we watch the holding capacity to a sprint within. all definitely the risk risk and that will be the more everything is idea can no longer lead, stay in water flow into the leaks instead, that succeed funny. this was intended to revitalize the slides. micro climate energy storage. as i said, we did for wildlife. the water in the leak is naturally beautified by the heat and floating islands. hope that cryptic plants but didn't go to a lot of things. natural beautification alone is not enough to address when you're 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, link at $160.00 hector's. it's one of the cities. biggest echo just so much in the us team has combined log base beautification here that simple technique as a quarter to 10 what we did was we ended the depth of edward glad and all the problem with the statements. i saw a large proportion of the 1st photo speech and nitrogen and could be removed well that from the different then all that the moving, that good we go i uh, when it was look, that's a good way to learn the 3 rules that you made up by the getting on some part of the

why we move and it wasn't to be icon for did remove the bigger part of the month. but in keeping a little develop into taught the initiated duty vocalization of double click and it has now managed by to have to bring that new to me. i'm not going to buy like a civic body. and the citizen group, just pushing past the lake country supports the livelihood of 70 percent of families who have been centered towards the upkeep of the beauty and difficulties. you know, we have the entire community like we have the glass good. does we have the featured men? we have the home dogs, we have the local, the groups. so we have many things happening at the lake. so it's like a be good connect of the community. give it a place, did go to the some oh, involved. and finally, the convergence has consideration. everybody wants to comes of this lakes even if everyone but to contribute to maintaining the quality of the quarter, the to, to,

to lot of what us to not be think of it but i can't get a lot of cash, but it's difficult to use the water for daily purposes, it has to be filtered, really valid for the 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 $31.00 sewage treatment plants in think the noodle only reported to be scientifically money to for waste water treatment. contributed food continues to be a problem as and to take this water is still being used for finding the state, the and also being decommissioned. a vast majority of last sort of shipping vessels are scraped on the south asian shores forming a major risk for the walk of and through the course to ecosystem. come with us on an investigative wage, to go on. the was 2nd largest ship breaking yard to witness these environmental

impact. first tend to did, does a 30 seattle fisherman spent all of his life catching fish alone the she duck on the coast line a bundle dish. but recently, dust noticed a traveling change in the mary nickel system. it will have one on the last 8 of the most much more efficiently. the good ones out of the boat would be full. the to next, you know, even 20 to 30 net. so fish less than that on the fish, i'm including the job. so just how to do the many even left the area after sending that property is to dp dex. land that about the easy as he blames the broken up ships along the shore for polluting the water. the

research shows that up to 10 percent of the giant ships weight is made above as best as heavy metals boil. and other toxic substances due to poor management and these yards toxic material ends up being the environment still go is the 2nd largest city in bangladesh, the nor distant part of the sports city guarantees home to 40. she breaking yachts, spending approximately 20 kilometers along the coast research everybody vote who has examined the marion by diversity here but to be able to hear by uh for each one of the last 20 years on the fisherman, along to the guns stuck on the coastline. last 25, a spacious saltisha, one of the most important elements of flooding biodiversity. the macro bent is like snails and oysters, on the most extent, on this coastline to back on 5 bill people. i totally get to talk to

a guy. and she told me to tow, near the shipyard sees that she break and wants to share his experience, and only mostly i just put it on paper and they said they will provide protective get such as boards, helmets, gloves regularly. but the problem is replacements and never for the ones that are new people. so that goes to resort to using dollars as make shift must 1st sense protection very no the level of me just for the new drums with them. so i just looked at the end of the, i'm going to breaking these goes is a very dangerous job, and workers often suffer accidents in 2022 alone and usually bolted up is 10. that's and 32 injuries long term health issues out of chronic problem for many

workers. the environmental field, since you don't see more long term research as needed to determine the extent of environmental impacts on despite the process of showing that the labels succeed. w h o 's health standards. i'm on the do the comprehensive the cities from relevant departments, other sentient for a better assessment because it is, i'm gonna go based on the tribute to say 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. is watched the breaking industry offers to people experiencing poverty is not going to say, but catholics in sort of like asbestosis and cancer. is there a teacher at this, this d, v d b c b wistar environment where the fundamental infections fruitless

besides a lack of equipment and release to ship saying that nobody is dis phone except for the in the twist when it is precisely the in. but with that is all the problem according to international local law. i do not see any significance of visa inspection that you use 2013. she breaking recycling regulation mandates. eco friendly, sheep dismantling, and prohibits europe and ships from being scrapped outside approved yards. despite these investigations show that europe in flag ships are often dismantled in salvation yards. so convincing the rules to turn the body saves inflect changes. the recent documents obtained by dw and color incomplete ownership details highlighting enforcement challenges. the matter

of fact, the shipping call companies based in the global north, a new or a for instance, when they have to, we legally explore it the ship for breaking to south asia, the, the open. these were present fox and lied to authorities about the final destination of the vessel as a way to avoid being codes. in response to inquiries, the u commission acknowledge to the necessity 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 bangladesh is economy providing steve and jobs. along with this has to be sent to ratified the home convention on the safe ship recycling, making it the se consolidation nation to do so after india at

this renovated shipyard and see, talking to one of the owners claims to be the standards as best as a separate, but i don't know, 2 separate specials. do you need a special machine which be have important from your is hunted, the center of best management facilities built. we've been processed to enter all the base. thanks. take care the separate us. and here's the on the water separator . this separates on from water into this thing, all of that correct, that tank any, as on the lot. and the water is discharged into the see the what that mean? what that, what about the on the shipyard has a concrete beating so face, designed to push really support the beach and back in tucker, environmental activists. the son is not happy with any prohibition of beating under the home convention to the demos to greenwashing 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 in bundle dish solid international grooves. we don't do fulls or isn't. she'll recycling old vessels into scrap. we'd be lost income source, but this means more ships we'd continue ending up on solid issue and cost. clearly, as we saw shipwrecks are a major problem and add items. national rules are needed to make a difference. let's head to a shipyard in belgium to understand the business of ship wrecking the complicated process of recycling and the possibilities and challenges.

it's an attractive job, it's, it's a, it's every a changing job. you've got different ships, different types of chips, the 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 out. you would think they've been to see themselves. they know exactly what they can extract from former navy boats, for example. so the civilians i have here on the road. they are of you can choose to me that the ships have many precious metals and we get so many different materials out about that. all the cop uh, bronze or different allies with other ships. it's a bit different. i'm going to vote 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 obviously the ship is maybe 90 percent, a scrap anyway. but all the rest of the materials also recycled like the woods oils all these stuff. so we, we are 97 to 98 percent of 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. the 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 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 don't? there's all your flowing out. it's not like that. well here, every thing is we're has to comply with international standards. and last, which is how it should be, what was the, what does within 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 older legislation, which is not the case in the, in other countries like turkey or let alone asia and these, these people liked in 13, we've got uh today we got 9 yard so i think on 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 vessels linked 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 shipping such the kind of forward to do it sustainably. and when they say that the custom of fortune is kind of twisting and twisting it with the issue because they will also re, i mean money by selling their muscles for cycling in your life. 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 shipment regulation. so in order to put ation yards on the, on your list and i think whenever that happens we all back described one. i think the best thing to do is that your flag chips just must be recycled on your base yards. scrapping these 2 fishing trawlers won't bring in much profit, but for now the big boats are selling 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 is an entrepreneur in mulatto who has come up with a sustainable solution, bio septic tanks that can also recycle sewage water. the water, the,

the vase 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 implement and the one, 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 one on me to go with the conventional septic tank, the waste water is selected, an empty that they get into is it's not uncommon for that, we support the end up in rivers and lakes, but using the environment. according to cyber akash, from the city of klein. but those are the, the bio tanks, the sewage water gets recycled. it can be used for different purposes, are drained into the ground, doing the new one there. this is how it works. all the waste water from a house who 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 through the filtration pack. here small, the body goes, are collected and treated again. at the end, the beautified water is discharged from the tank. some fold it into the ground. are those water they've got in with it, like the though he has to get used to having a biological toilet. but it didn't take long but the, the loan and i'm a, what do we say and negotiate. 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, we are, we are on vacation for a month, or if someone accidentally uses an acid for cleaning, then there's a chance that the bacteria can dial depending on the money. but to the level we have the receipt of the enzymes that you have, which is safe to do on the body. otherwise it is generally low maintenance. and today my daughter easily funding on my so maintenance under this from the companies on 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 on the plastic, depending on the location and the conditions was that customer going to take them without me being the 1st to examine the area of, of the tank is to be better. if it's local, visit the site in person, if it's somewhere it is, we ask them to send us a video. we also need information like how many people are living in the household and how frequently? yes, and for this at the house, we then designed the tank according a little bit of normally our thanks 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 as well. doesn't sound very young me, but it's a pretty common practice across single floor um california recycling switch. what

else? who would have caught, but increasingly as what a scarcity becomes a zeal check for millions across the globe. we will 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 you next week until then take care would buy from us. gosh, the,

they also will be stopping pounds and they make fuel lines. the aches and pains. why do we have any useful and how do they arrive? what were the. ready hey, i hope therapies are available. news from mountain pain research in good shape. next on d. w. how specialties? a smooth, unusual sized with luxury. and

david with a touch of, i'm telling mary excellent. all the actually setting up your a to save your life. in 60 minutes on the details of the faithful encounter in the late 19 seventy's former concentration campaign, my general most meisner meant the man who had to maintain him goose stump, bog, known as the beast of sylvie bar. shame on you. tell the truth to use nicer. wagner was dead and investigation concluded that it was suicide by
