shows that geo politically, honestly, the on the board is what makes things the way, the way all the solutions mapped out, navigating a changing world. now on youtube, the on the moves, kyla, because from vietnam, the on the streets gemini, is used as the pushing for change. the end of the coast, toxic ship rags in bangladesh, the

thousands of ship transport goods and much and dice around the world. that's when that time is over. 80 percent of them end up as wrecks on the coasts of southern asia. poisoning people on the environment to to go is home to the world's 2nd largest ship graveyard. should have does a 33 year old fisherman spend half of his life catching fish along the she took 100 coastline of bangladesh. but recently just noticed a troubling change in the marine eco system. it will have one on like, must see the area that was much more associated with the mazda. what about the boat would be full, but the 2 nets, i don't know, even 20, don't 13, not see less fish on that one. and they are the fishermen quitting their jobs and it's kind of they're just out of this on the farm and even left the area of our study, the properties, to repeat this land that it was easy,

a shallow water fishermen dust blames the broken up ships along the shore for polluting water and depleting fish populations. the nearby beached vessels were spilling oil and other waste into the surf. the research shows that up to 10 percent of giant ships weight is made up of especially those heavy metals, oil, and other toxic substances. due to poor management in these yards, the toxic material ends up in the environment. the she took on is the 2nd largest city in bangladesh. the northwestern part of this port city currently is home to 40 ship breaking yards, spending approximately 20 kilometers along the coast. in the year 2022 alone,

2900000 tons of scrap from ships were dismantled in these yards. the marine bio diversity research or pro barbara well has collected settlement and water samples from around the ship breaking area. a lot has changed in the last years he says to be able to hear by uh, the last 20 years alone, efficient men along to the guns i should according to the coast line. last 25 species of fish. yeah. tongue. uh, could you talk to the most important the elements of marine bio diversity macro bent, those like smells, an oyster are almost extinct on this coastline. i totally get to talk to a guy and she to come to town near the shipyard to season ship breakers, want to share their experiences anonymously?

or does the international collections of workers are hesitant to report issues to international authorities? because they fear losing their jobs? if ship owner authorities to become aware of their actions and why do you think i don't know about calder from a disability trying to ship racking on these coast is a very dangerous job. and workers often suffer accidents. in 2022 alone and g o's reported at least 10 deaths and 33 injuries long term health issues are a chronic problem for many workers. the, for, i was my time in the shipyards, i've been plagued by a persistent headache the washer. i also suffer from occasional loss through a blockage that hinders my breathing a different day. however, my primary concern remains the chronic headink. i'm thrown out environmental officials and should have gone are starting to look at the pollution and environmental harm from ship breaking yards. deputy director referred was

armoire, says he has find some ship yard signature on the shipment, but he said more long term research was needed to determine the extent of environmental affects. the stand up doesn't improve in the research indicates hyphens, heavy, mental concentrations and soils and nearby settlements and others. we see these have seats into the aquatic ecosystem, which it out over to further investigation is required to determine the extent of heavy metal deposits, completing what else it say. there is one of her son and environmental lawyer and active. this feels that the government is not responding properly to the hazards of ship braking force. human health. i wasn't sure what the ship breaking industry on people experiencing poverty is not employment.

it is just such a selection like our system system kind of stuff. the process next across the monitoring everything seems village only on page 2. to address the health and environmental risks of ship ranking, the european union created the ship breaking recycling regulation, or e u. s. r r in 2013. according to this policy, no european flag chips can be broken outside certified green yards. there are no shipyards in south asia on that list, as there are no health and environmental safeguards in place. but the international n g o ship breaking platform has reported instances of european flag ships continuing to arrive in bangladesh and other south asian ship breaking yards flouting this regulation. nickel, i'm really nervous from the n g o says he knows of european origin ships being broken up in bangladesh. i mean, it might be then very strong expression, but i mean, for the last 4 decades we really have been witnessing it. tragic expectation

perpetrated by a wealthy elite, mostly based uh in, in the more developed part of the world than if you want. this is a sort of a new form of colonialism. it toxic one. these vessels evade e u regulations by being sold through 3rd parties or cash buyers before being shipped to countries like bangladesh, india and pockets done the ships change their flags to avoid compliance. dodge avella obtain documents indicating several vessels built locations and dates . many locked complete ownership information before the flag change. a m d holtzie. an example from a december 2021 clearance application was listed as being flagged from commer ross during the application. however, it was previously named hunter, yes. owned by a polar shipping company and flew the flag of malta,

another european country to either affect the other shipping companies based in the global north, a new or a for instance, when they have to, we legally exploit the ship for breaking to south asia. the, the open, these were present fox and lied to authorities about the final destination of the best. so as a way to avoid being codes. so is there a way to do to fix on these? uh, yes, legal loopholes needs to be fixed. and legislative strongly is to be enforced properly. the ship breaking industry makes a significant contribution to bangladesh as economy supplying steel and offering employment to pour workers. bangladesh has recently ratified the hong kong convention unsafe ship recycling, making it the 2nd south asian nation to do so. after india, the backend dot com, environmental acted as say to her son is not happy with any provisions beaching

under the hong kong convention to her. it amounts to green washing the country, including no way pleasures, bangladesh, design, the hong kong convention which commit speaching, however with new way and now beaching within its borders. bank issues government for the heat, european standards. differentiation in certain cases is not acceptable. for instance, when considering a quantity of items of an american a know different from those of citizens of other nations. hence differentiating standards based on nationality is unintended. the above ships are essential to global commerce and recycling over solves into valuable scrap material will remain a source of income. but international regulations have yet to provide a solution for improving the environmental damage in bangladesh caused by this toxic industry the

. they take to the streets, the climate protections for democracy, go to protest against will and racism. young people want to change. many fear for the future and to mom's that that government stop listening, the berlin at the end of may, thousands of young people are demonstrating for more climate protection with the use organization fridays for future. on this specific friday, 100000 people take part across germany, including 19 year old samira gun door. the demonstration has been in full swing since about 12 noon and were now walking loudly through the government district,

climate protection and democracy only work hand in hand. samira and the others feel that they are not being heard by those in power that their interests are not adequately represented. so they want to help shape democracy. a new study shows that many young people in europe believe democracy is in danger. all the more reason for samira to get involved. she's not happy with the political situation. the climate crisis motivated her to become politically active. she's been involved with fridays for future for 5 years now. since she was 14 these days, she not only participated but also organize his protest. this park and berlin's trip to district special significance for her. the book of the island of youth behind the bridge is a place i used to go with my friends to chill. it's where i became more politicized dobbs to have a climate protection is no picnic. that's what's written on the poster that she made for the protest. it all began back when she was in school. that was when i

went with my class to my 1st demonstration because my teachers motivated me, then i realized how extreme climate changes and that we really have to do something . i still feel that way. so i'm on the streets with fridays for future. for john arrow, it also began with protests. the 23 year old has been involved with the green party for 3 years. instead of complaining about things, he didn't like. he decided he needed to take action. he wanted to make a difference in his neighborhood and berlin's punk of district for john arrow. so democracy means getting involved this year. he's standing for election in his district for the 1st time. you mentioned this on young people, especially because they're starting to build a life. if you listen to them, you'd realize that their ideas are very similar to the ideas that older people have to be good for politics at all levels to bring them together and compare the ideas i need as

a green candidate. he doesn't have it easy in his district time and again, he says he's received insults, threats, or attacks. arrows grand parents came to germany from turkey decades ago. he has a lot of experience with racism, which is also why he stands up for people with a migration background harvest to start to get help. it's really important that people are heard and send him and represent any affinity, especially if i'm them, which is not the case for me. but especially if they have a visible history of migration for the racism. incentive phobia are totally present in the society. and those with the different skin color experience racism and every day it's super important that this we made public and that people realize it's not ok. and he also went into politics because he's concerned about the future of his generation in these times of war and climate crisis. especially with regard to climate change. young people need a perspective of people who represent them one to the other. most young people with everything that faces them are not represented at all. and especially in european

calling to have starting with the topic of climate change things. and so the young have to somehow bring all of these issues into politics is they are much more affected by them because they will hopefully see on the planet for a very long time. i hope that the fridays for future movement has already achieved a lot. clement protection has long been one of the top issues on the political agenda. samira believes all the effort has been worth it. yeah, i've actually given up a lot of my free time. a lot of my hobbies for 2019 was a different time when people weren't really that aware of the climate crisis. and we managed to get the climate discussion going. today we're standing here with so many people, and i'm just very, very grateful that everyone is prepared to protest. whether as demonstrators on the streets or actively involved in politics, john a root, some your a gun, doors and other protesters have already made a difference. they believe that those who want to protect democracy need to give

young people a louder voice in the future on the the, [000:00:00;00] the, if your elderly, old become ill, life can feel very worrying. it doesn't help that there's a world wide shortage of kind of give us what's the solution? hi, how are you today? especially you have severe pain with just a little show and talk is 21 and has been learning german for 6 months now together with her classmates in, in a few months, they'll need these language skills. they want to train us health care workers in
