and along the river bank. to demand soon the waste floods into two elling penetrating the soil and filtering down to contaminate the water tables. the brewery gang the river flows through the slum is paying the highest price. a tenner is used vast amounts of water millions of liters of water are required to wash treat and tender skins. this water goes into the sewers. it is no longer useful you know it is discarded. it ends up polluting the river. haven't you noticed the state of the burger rivers water this is the water that flows into it. all this water laden with chemical products is dumps directly into

the river with no purification. thank you i this is a very it is their life they know this is the only a walk of i guess that was true. and the point of back i depended on this rebirth for a number of theories this we just saw some of which i believe i do by the affair by the lead there would be. if. we wash ourselves here because we have no other choice we have no running water there are always two hundred people waiting at the public fountains so we have to wash in this filthy water. just like many others the owner of this small town or e specialized in dying skins is unconcerned by the hazards his activity gives rise to.

this evacuation system has been in use for a long time. that a dirty water inevitably goes into the river. there's nowhere else for to go that's the way it is. it would naturally flow into the river. thief of course water containing chemicals is bad for the health bill bill bill bill would have the bubble but if we worried about toxicity it would stop working. to go bobet was ready to do that. in this country and the polluters needed factory owners well polluting they don't pay for the clean up. philip again is a bangladeshi scientist in ten years he's been the only person to study the question of the pollution produced by the ten days of his area but. i think that

that situation has become waters he sees the washed polluted area that i have ever seen in bangladesh and in many other countries. maybe maybe a hundred feet apart yet. all the factories. releasing. on treat did we waste. seventy percent of the total position that is being caused to this rebirth is coming from the tennessee. dumping chromium into the either walked up and it's very difficult to take chromium out of your system. because so face water is contaminated with chromium and if it is contaminated activity that you can't even cure rate that means you're actually exposing the entire population of this city into a very deadly and a c.b.s. .

to tell you is have poisoned the city's entire canal system to bury gang was the main artery of mustering drinkable water and fish to the population. today it's the third most polluted river in the world no living will can is and can survive in it the stench it exudes makes even sailing there is a difficult to bring dangar has been confirmed. as you shall yet. how low. did. you give you need to. show but that would. cost on the number of the water is poisoned that can't be any fish with the tanneries. and our forefathers were fishermen and

lived off it we haven't caught anything for seven months now the film. was carry on even if there are no more fish we can barely survive. that should look. into all you see are empty nets oh you know what. was. good you know the. yes it. was. the. brunt. of it. but. it's only during the rainy season with the fall of freshwater and the fishermen could hope to catch a life fish. it would take many years and millions of euros to clean this water down. that

a little more than i. have that is i have been eating here for thirteen years when i want to raise and clean and my husband was a fisherman and we were leaving thanks to seem that all today the fish from the wood again there is inedible and my husband is out of work if the river were cleaned well could leave well from it hog out of the government is responsible for the state of the buddha going to look what happened to it and that this river runs right through dhaka how could they let this happen when the government does nothing . the human ecological consequences are nothing short of x tester of. the world trade organization has ruled that alternative is must be brought up to international regulation re standards by two thousand and fourteen but bangladesh finds itself in a catch twenty two situation down to continue developing its booming leather industry and at the same time respond to the health and environmental concerns of

its population. to deal with the situation the department of the environment has appointed mr choudary. his mission is to bring the factories up to standard and to sanction the polluting industrialists that's to say ninety nine percent of time. and how can i say that it's easy it's very much complicated. family stress and also follow the race and then trends because. each and every effort and grow you after having. a phrase so much pressure from the industry on earth from the high yields the following complaint about pollution mr choudary and scientific team have come to take some samples.

yes are you listening to me not alone they to find out which factories are responsible i think a belongs to the group with money to the. money. we've got to get samples. telling. you did the pollution is increasing there were swimming was over here and how it becomes so that their behavior. money is money out of how we got those samples only. after discovering an exceptionally high level of water pollutants he visits the tender he. picked to get leave after coming over here and we found this. illegal trade this releasing of the dog sick water without having paid this blank in polluting water going to the pound and polluting the agriculture because he will see taking the plans having

this but he did what i did and i'll do made this into the candle stick to be audited let's go up this dust is very dangerous one of those factories dust emissions are poisoning us. it also doesn't mission from this factory and we had a big i picked it. up money to proclaim i think there's a problem with your water the oxygen levels in it will be low with the smell of money to the water as. i can tell from it smell. funny going to the can we did a bit help but it would seem your water treatment system isn't working every day i've got to get this and i know. you've invested in installing it but it doesn't work. but it d.p.p. but you start functioning and this is this is proof of your failure the oxygen level is very low but i'm going to test it in front of you. i think you could put up it's very poor water. odor and color are so strong in order to. you'll see. this

money from practical experience and this is what it is dog free from pollution samples show the level of oxygen dilution in the water to be a zero point four for a fish to survive it should be at nine. but there this is a warning so that you correct your errors but i'm going to have to sanction you for your wrongdoing but you'll be closed down if you do nothing but what to believe me i've had many factories shut down but you can check what i'm telling you it's in the press. to start your tree fine for polluting the environment is ten thousand euros yes this appears this remains more of a threat than actually full sprint of the law. putting to transparency international bangladesh is one of the twenty most corrupt countries in the world in his area bag nine of the largest turner is are owned by government members. after being.

approached having already. told try to take some help from the get rid of this and i'll take a. good example from our legal action. to try to get some help from the higher ups a but. they didn't follow this unlawful already more than their protests the government gives and the government gives in very easy because they get heavy on their money because the gallery owners have a whip but and then we put the money that can. process.

i would rather as questions for people in positions of power instead of speaking on their behalf and that's why you can find my show larry king now right here on our t.v. question more. interview . a. good job from.

the if you refuse economic ups and downs in the final months thanks to london to new york sang i and the rest of this life it's a neat case you will be everything we own all thing. is actually what happened that day i don't know. but

a woman killed. piers later is when i got arrested for. for a crime i did not do. we have numerous cases where police officers lie about polygraph results. innocent people to confess to police officers don't beat people anymore i mean it just doesn't happen really. in the course of interrogation why because there's been this is like meant no because the psychological techniques are more effective in obtaining confessions than physical abuse and they were off taking they could get what they wanted they can say what they wanted and there was no evidence of what they did or what they said. to the. science technology innovation and all the latest developments from around

russia we've gone to the future and covered. in two thousand and three the supremes called raised the alarm bordering the his area back tanneries to be relocated and brought up to standard the designated land fifty kilometers. was intended to accommodate the tanneries as well as a water treatment plant nine years later and still nothing has happened environmental activist dr masterson is working to be launched this project. this place was a billy you know it was pretty place it is a law and security after. setting up a new. city here. so people of getting thrilled. i think has been down here but.

one hundred people are coming to see the new place. despite all of this coming from the government all this is from the government. down there you know and there's have not not a single strand of the owner has moved from this has shown any need of moving from this place to. the reason is that if they go far. and making their. investment environment friendly they probably would have to make a major contribution with their profit but we don't understand one thing. in just a group can be much stronger than the government when the court did it did they get there is have to move within a certain day if they are they have to show dollar then it was actually the government who appeared on behalf of the gallery owners in the court and the government pleaded for an extension after so you see the gallery owners and the government going to get there in asking for more pain from the court it could have

been just how do you know the a. developing country of one hundred fifty million inhabitants ensures its economical survival thanks to the leather and textile industries which represent eighty percent of the nation's exports the market is booming. production costs in china have doubled over the last five years and the dish has become the place to go so buyers from the west in two thousand and ten a love letter production heroes but forty percent of the industry supports a multitude of smaller businesses drying transportation waste intimidation and incineration. approximately one million people live for less than manufacturing and it's on syria activities nothing goes to waste in the straight.

small skins will become purses and bags. even scraps of flesh fat and died less a remnant we used. thank you. he's also cuts a destined for the open air factories. yes yes we pick them up with our bare hands. and what's that. to gauge and it would never shavings the machines shred them here on it and they're going to.

make a dent and there are just the bin. then to do anything with that over there that's the fat we used to make soap and so we manage everything is what we see here is bad i mean these are actually waste so only the waste from the families these are being used for different purposes i mean this is solid and liquid mix used for making soap but i know from them are you brian is that i mean these big dry trash and she's actually raw material that she's trying to turn around for manufacture on three feet much income i love it that ok this is a feat full speed and bone to pick. this bone meal is made from less the leftovers

pulled with animal carcasses and beef and trails it's then used to feed chickens and also prunes for the european market. jane. want to see. any. chance i don't see chemical missing. people eating fish and. chicken. maybe we. have never seen you get change in my body. but what you see here it's unbelievable i mean i think of any. or any any any place. eighty open air bone meal factories here built in the middle of housing and give both toxic fumes day and night which makes death the most polluted city in the world.

when you see the smoke over there what i want to say about how long could anyone last here does that take a look at the x. rays of them habitants lungs any of them you'll see they're black under x. ray they appear black. it can't be what i kind of talks at fumes here spread for miles around. me dad i've got that name you can smell it you're going to turn up or not is good north south east or west in a fifteen kilometer radius is it getting stiffer to get them out and yours the same just. how much do you earn a month twenty seven euro's and how long do you work for nonstop survey say they work on this bridge.

in half an hour don't salary the children of bangladesh also toil for the leather industry day to contribute to the nation's economy and do no trivial. holding to the president of the franco bangladeshi chamber of commerce the country's strengths is its works all. before we take that bomb of this we continue to stay in the competitive level because we have been allowed young forth coming into the market there is about two million work force. coming to market the present infrastructure industry and other infrastructures and private medium and these people are waiting for you know benefit disguised. from them maybe why do you need. two workers where five workers are walking so this is an advantage

obama. elicit workers poti made up of child labor those figures enable us to tell how many children a working in the leather industry but they are everywhere despite the fact that bangladesh is a signatory to the international convention on the rights of the child its child labor is not clandestine and. eighty percent of bangladeshis live on less than two years a day the whole family has to work and as is often have no other choice than to go out to work school is still a luxury for the majority of children here. in

his area back over fifty percent of the population is illiterates. and i hope my daughter will grow up to be a good person that she'll have an education that shall learn to read and write i want to be able to give her that.

the european union contributed two million euros to a number of his area back turner it's in the aim of producing a clean unless it's announce the results when significant the only means of saving the population in the environment would be to place the tanneries outside. the moves of this kind is costly and would increase production costs by european purchase is prepared to accept such a deal. the saddest thing is that we in this country we didn't just realisation. of such industrialization because the africa you teach here is really really sad story. but i do have the best i have seen that in a number of cases once the european view is once the european consumers i thought

about the fact they take a position and that situation to improve. so i would definitely hope that the european consumers would start asking questions so that teams heah get improved because in this particular case is if the buyer stake a position that can actually make life difficult for them. than anyone. else. and it took almost an hour to set up the. lovely. i didn't say that. can you do you think we're going to be poor all of our lives. i just want to earn more money at you don't need to be reach. the sound of.
