it's no longer useful and you know it is discarded. it ends up polluting the river. haven't you noticed the state of the burgan the 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. this event is then i say no this is only a walk toward the guest list. and the point of dependent on this is the very for a number of freezes we just some of which are believed by defy the affair by their way of being. 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 every specialized in dying skins is unconcerned by the hazards his activity gives rise to. the owner of this evacuation system has been in use for a long time. it is dirty water inevitably goes into the river. there's nowhere else for it to go that's the way it is. the joy it would naturally flow into the river. thief of course water containing chemicals is bad for the health probable there would have been a bubble but if we worried about toxicity it would stop working. to go by when it was ready to do that. might be in this country. judge the factory

owners polluting they don't pay for the cleanup. 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 turner is of his area back. i think that that situation has become worse you see the washed polluted area that i have ever seen in bangladesh and in many other countries. maybe yes maybe and again these are all pretty yeah and they're all factories. releasing their treated liquid waste. seventy per cent of the total position that is being caused to this river is coming from the ten. dumping chromium me to the evil walked up and it's very difficult to take chromium out of your system. if you're such a slacker is contaminated with chromium and if it is contaminated activity that you

can't even cure it that means you're actually exposing the entire population of the city into very deadly n.s.e. . to turn loose of poisoned the cities entire canal system. was the main artery of. drinkable water and fish to the population. today it's the third most polluted river in the world no living will consume can survive in it and the stench it exudes makes even sailing there is a difficult. mission sharia. yellow. did. you don't you don. she showed

up but that. wasn't the end of the water is poisoned there can't be any fish with the tanneries. tell you our forefathers were fishermen and lived off it we haven't caught anything for seven months now what the film. was we carry on even if there are no more fish we can barely survive. that should look. good you know you see our empty nets although you know what. was lives should use the. yes. that is. the. brunt. of it but.

it's only during the rainy season with the fall of freshwater the fishermen could hope to catch a life fish. it would take many years and millions of years to clean this water that you didn't really. think i think. that is i have been eating here for thirteen years when i went to resign clean and my husband was a fisherman and we were leaving thanks to seem that over today the fish from the begun to is inedible and my husband is out of work if the river were cleaned well could leave well from it. to go to the government is responsible for the state of the buddha going to look what happened to it and that this river runs right through to how could they let this happen and the government does nothing. the human ecological consequences are nothing short of a. tester of. the world trade organization has ruled that all turner 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 tannery and how can i say that it's easy it's very much complicated. challenging. family stress conan and also for a long race and then friends because. each in their benefit dry after having. we raise so much pressure from the industry and

owners from the high ups following complaint about pollution is to challenge very intense scientific team have come to take some samples. no longer yes are you listening to me not all along they do find out which factories are responsible i think a bunch of the group led with what do the. money. we've got to get samples. telling. us their way did the pollution if in grazing there were swimming once over here how it becomes so. there. are already money if money out of how we got those samples. on if. after discovering an exceptionally high level of water pollutants he visits the turner ya know. to begin.

coming over here we found this illegal trade this releasing the doxy who are dead without having paid men this is in polluting waters going to the pound and polluting the agriculture it goes you'll see taking the plants having this polluted word there and they made this into the candle stick to david let's go up this dust is very dangerous one of those factories dust emissions are poisoning us. this it also doesn't mission from this factory and we had a big epic did. a funny thing proclaim i think there's a problem with your water the oxygen levels in it will be low with the smell of money dip the water is bad i can tell from it smell. funny when the can we did a bit up but it would seem your water treatment system isn't working every day i got to put this and i know. you've invested in installing it but it doesn't work. i

put in the d.p. but you start functioning and this is this is proof of your failure the oxygen level is very low cut i'm going to test it in front of you. i think you can pick up it's very poor water it's odor and color are so strong in order to put it you'll see. this money from picked you can experience and this is what it is dog free from pollution samples show the level of oxygen dilution in the water to be zero point four to 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 that's how you'll be closed down if you do nothing but to believe me i've had many factories shut down but you can check what i'm telling you it's in the press. the statutory fine for polluting the environment. is ten thousand euros yes this appears this remains more

of a threat than actually enforce ment of the law. putting to transparency international bangladesh is one of the twenty most corrupt countries in the world in his very bag nine of the largest turner is are owned by government members. after being. a pretty heavy no or exit. poll try to take some help from high ups to get rid of this banality. good example from a legal action. to try to get some help from the higher ups a but. didn't allow all these unlawful already foreign everett is the government gives in and the government gives invasively because their daddy or nurse has money because the gallery owners have

a will but and then even if the money that gets. to process enforcing the law is. what defines a country's success. faceless figures of economic growth. or a factual standard of living.

i would rather as questions for people in positions of power instead of speak 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 feel. good job from.

the fifty's with economic ups and downs in the final months days belong to the old sang night and the rest of the life so you meet casey will be every week on all things.

well with. science technology innovation all the least a moments from around russia we've got the future 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 from was intended to accommodate the tanneries as well as a water treatment plant nine years later and still nothing has happened environmental activist dr masson is working to relaunch this project. this place was a billy you know it was pretty place it is a law and take surely after. setting up a new. city here. people of getting thrilled. i think has been down here but

a. hundred people are coming to see the new place how do developing it is not developing at all despite all this coming from the government all this is from the government. down to the owners have not not this and the owner has moved from this has shown any need of moving from this place to down. 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 and we don't understand one thing. in just a group can be much stronger than the government when the courts did it did they get there is have to move within a certain day if they are bad i have to show dollars then it was actually the government who had big on behalf of the dead lady owners in the court and the government pleaded for an extension after so you see the gallery owners and the

government coming to get their in asking for more pain from the court it could have been just the other way around. this developing country of one hundred fifty million inhabitants in shows it's economical survival thanks to the letter 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 alone the production heroes by forty percent. the industry supports a multitude of smaller businesses in 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 strait.

small skins will become purses and bags. even scraps of flesh fat and died less a remnant we used. can . these also cuts destined for the open air factories. yes yes we pick them up with our bare hands. a little bit and what's that.

to gauge and it would lever shavings the machines shred them i'm going to they're going to. make a dent and. i'm just a been i'm going to do anything with that over there that's the fight we used to make so. it's only money 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. what i know from the market brian who watches that i mean these big dry crashed and deceased actually raw material that you say to turn around on manufacture on three feet much income at the last minute that ok decision feed fish feed and on to keep. 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 and say i. want to see. many. chances to see how they can see. people eating fish and. chicken. paid to these. terrorists to get into my body. but what you see here is time believe me i think of any. or any any any place. eighty open air bone meal factories here built in the middle of housing and give those toxic

fumes day and night which makes death the most polluted city in the world. when you see the smoke over there the one to figure out how long could anyone last here does that take a look at the x. rays of inhabitants lungs any of them you'll see they're black under x. ray they appear black. it can be my turn to talk that fumes here spread for miles around. me dad i've found that. you can smell it you're going to down up or not is good north south east or west in a fifteen kilometer radius is it getting stiffer to get them on and yours the same . how much do you earn a mile twenty seven euro's and how long do you work for nonstop survey say they work on this bridge.

and in half an adult salary the children of bangladesh also toil for the leather industry to contribute to the nation's economy and to not triple. holding to the president of the franco bangladeshi chamber of commerce the country's strengths is its works all. before we take the bottom of this we continue to stay in the competitive level because we have been a large young force 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 guys. from that maybe why do you need. two workers where five workers are walking so this is an

advantage obama. elicit workers party made up of child labor those figures enable us to tell how many children a working in the leather industry that 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 mothers 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 she'll 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 alysa announce the results when significant the only means of saving the population in the environment would be to place the tanneries outside. of the moves of this kind is costly and would increase production costs by european purchases prepared to accept such a deal. the saddest thing is that we in this country we need industrialisation but not 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 to take a position and that situation to improve. so i would definitely hope that the european consumers would start asking questions so that teams sia get improved because in this particular case is if the buyer stake a position that trying to actually make life difficult for them. to heavy on. the time. stream it took almost an hour to set up the. lonely. kind of life it. can do you think we're going to be poor of our lives. i just want to earn more money if you don't need to reach. the south.

previously when the western companies were operating there you know now. of those profits ever went into the social sector the populations have never had a share in that country's natural wealth trade with china investment from china i do believe it must be a plate of pasta to draw maybe essential role in today's rice of africa yes the chinese have benefit from that but this a fair trade. most
