i did my own business about the european because you missed the european central bank we have to buy to play the projects they don't lie with this and if we're discussing from the europeans a totally i know they're about to head i said. our leaders that are being exposed to the force of flying export of oil goods should i.

visit the last twenty years bangladesh has become a global center for letter production. this industry generates over three hundred fifty million euros per year for the country. and has a very bad suburb of the capital dhaka around three hundred tonne there is a keeper field of twenty five acres producing the clothes and leather goods that flood the international market. and more than fourteen million skins are treated every year in the slum warehouses and turner is sit side by side. and nightmare situation for which we westerners are also responsible i heard i. was. skins arrive like this every day and each one of the factories where in one of

the has very bad tenure is an average sized factory employing around thirty workers it's here that the cycle of leather tending begins. every day around one thousand tonnes of skins arrive directly from albatross all over the country to be stored in this hangar. go to arrive coated in salt so as to avoid rapid decay. but if you want to say i was in the morning we get the deliveries and we cover the skins and lie rinse them and drive them out with a was next after applying the chemicals we place them in the tanning drums

and then we wash them when i go well that was yeah i want to get a collage of what we do this three times over and in but then again there was. a large proportion of the litter bags jackets and other accessories we buy today are produced in tanneries such as this the working conditions are antiquated nothing has changed in thirty years neither machines nor techniques. telling is a long process to remove the parasites the fact in the head is work is carry handled scrape and treat the tons of skins using numerous chemical products and wearing only gloves for protection.

i am cutting the small pieces of skin that had been damaged during washing. sherman is one of the forty thousand working in the turner is more than twelve hours a day nonstop manual workers are hired on a daily basis without training all contracts. few women are able to withstand such physically exhausting and wearing labor. i wear a scarf to protect my hair otherwise i would lose it because of the lime water. and when the water runs over my hands it burns away my skin and what i.

meant in the others put up with these working conditions for the simple reason that today in bangladesh forty percent of the population is unemployed getting a job in eternity is considered a lucky break. the main problem in the tannery is the smell was. bad i think it makes us sick blackens and it's a way of our skin. i don't know but people like me have no other choice so we have to take the job that. i work at. long hours i have to cut the small leather pieces and unwrap the new

skins they arrive. here do all of what sometimes the skins are crawling with parasites and smell the style. and you've got to find it takes away my appetite. if i remember my first day of work in the factory. the smell was so disgusting that i threw up and faint like so many guy had the noise of the machines pounding in my head until it would burst. but at the fracture i was i was sick for a week after but now i'm used to it. and doesn't know how old she is she may be twenty she's been working in a tunnel risa to lose on a good month she can earn forty euros like that. i'm

. a go down this is my mother's house. was a kid and this is my daughter. rosa post three year old daughter thank you i am. done and then i don't want. to give. it. back and that there is nothing at the factory no medical support. and that i have no friends and there are no safety regulations do you know when i start every day at eight am and there's no paid overtime they should unite i never get any holidays and if i miss half a day they counted as a full day that i don't use i'm sick it's the same they count me out sent on. so i

have to go to work even when i'm ill. gotten otherwise i'll have no money left at the end of the month. the judge will find that. sherman spends ten euros on her rent and for this price she gets one tiny room in which to house the whole family. who like her the majority of the slums five hundred thousand residents dependent on the leisure industry. is enough that the fortune i never get a pay rise. is down i asked for one in january but nothing happened they said to be happy with what i had or leave. the child after paying my rent and giving some money to my parents there's almost nothing left. but i had a better salary i could save some money but it's impossible right now. to worry

among i need money to bring up my daughter and send her to school there's i don't want to show you how can i educate her properly without money. have had a hard life will be the same for my kids. charmaine would like to be able to count on her husband to feed the family. what i think. what time did you get back home. at five and you know i'm late because i went to the fish market he goes to show what time should leave for work at noon i caught a cold i didn't feel well ok i am that's right up there you go to work at noon because you could called my mother and me how do you think i'm going to go to work at eight. little one mom is preparing dinner.

thank. you. i never wake up i don't get up now that. they are still out there it we have no electricity and no gas here so it's difficult to cook partnership that's going to send it to. hide like i'm more comfortable in cleaner life. i keep cleaning but everything gets dirty so quickly. they get. we live with the stink of the tanneries. we have every kind of problem here. go by nobody but we can't afford to go anywhere else so i have to stay in this disgusting environment going on resume what i

thought it was but that i guess. i. never did. thank you much if there was a population of twelve million to watch and is a serious problem so she percent of the population don't have any sherman and her husband are among those who have the privilege of access to a water pump which they share with the neighbors but it's not drinkable and has to be paid for it you don't. need my husband pulls rickshaws back but he only works part time i don't mind them his that's why i have to work at sea. was a little guy. that. would

be averting of war with syria at the last second and the opening up some kind of dialogue with iran it would appear that washington's neo cons an armchair generals are falling on hard times ever since the end of the cold war washington has always been in need of an enemy talking to iran certainly is one of their worst nightmares so is there a plan b. . right on the scene. first street. and i think pictures. on our reporters twitter. and instagram. to be in the know. on the. thanks for. the reply. did you know the price is the only industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because

a free and open process is critical to our democracy which albus us role. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and across several we've been hijacked why a handful of transnational corporations they will profit by destroying what our founding fathers once it's all just my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem trying to fix rational debate and a real discussion on the critical issues facing america to find the book deal ready to join the movement then welcome to the big picture. of the of the the. league it was terrible a. very hard to take out. once again. a one liner had

never had sex with the target there's no. limit. to. what a beauty of the political. yes i work for a miserable wage and they yell at me that dish again a day or not but yeah. i guess this

morning i didn't go to work because i didn't feel well he doesn't have to look under the bus was unhappy about that he got angry with me and he told me i would lose my job if i didn't come mother but how can i work in this state my hands and my feet hurt so much. less a worker's feet and hands are eaten away by the chemical products used throughout the turning process these products are extremely toxic for the skin but also when inhaled the telling factories have no ventilation system. all the workers are exposed to danger but especially those who are in direct contact with the chemicals . proximately three hundred products necessary to soften and die the skins ammonium

acids wrestling fans osiers old crow mates hydrogen sulfide and more. inflammable explosive and corrosive they use requires training the workers never receive. we use all the derivatives of potassium. and ammonium. when we rinse the skins we use lots of acids. and we put them in the drums that can be dangerous. for the new workers it's dangerous but after they get used to it was. to get my hands there i k. there's no problem the batteries because i've just used chemicals. aqim it when there's a few doctors working in his area bag. it you know. this liver

evolution we're going to do if you. do do you want to do that you are going. to fix the collars on the skins the workers use mercury huge quantities are used for blue and for black this process has been outlawed in france for twenty years because mercury permeates the body and contaminate all the vital organs. stop she's going to let. you see these. days. in two thousand and ten at apex one of the country's so-called model tanneries

three workers died and ten was seriously injured in an explosion caused by an error in the handling of chemicals. i guess there are accidents you have to be careful throughout the whole process especially when turning the drums on and off and when you put the chemicals in. we often drop the sacks on our feet touch the chemicals. one third of workers will be injured. back up the fifty years now the term is union representing twenty thousand workers has attempted to improve working conditions for its members but to no avail. one of the pocket of the. one of the to be honest conversation and their behavior towards us with shows that their priority is to give us the least they can because truth for many years is that

a union our union has put forward peaceful solutions. that they show no interest in will not. run with it i mean i think with a tight ship they're going on with us so we have no other choice than to revolt from an adult up i don't know what. long live the union strike no workers unite workers of the world unite workers of the world get up and fight the most obnoxious the more almost all of us a sick but they're not going to the bosses have never taken any health measures for night and they don't want doctors in the factories caring for the work as you know but i like that's why every day here at work is die from leather sickness look at the gum or see. when the workers take to the streets to demand an increase in the minimum wage the police welcome them with guns and ammunition. in two thousand and

ten several thousand demonstrators and three died sixty were injured and hundreds were arrested. the leather industry that is not a risk to health from my local. national we want the bosses to respect the employment and health legislation of this country you know think because she doesn't have the money given it to by ignoring the law money going to make bigger profits lobbying the government.

i don't know the i do this to protect her from evil like. vans or later the later not the legalese but oh. my daughter is three but she still can't walk properly there are a lot. she has trouble eating and falls over a lot and. i think she still can't talk to one of allah now she's very weak and her health is very fragile and i wanted the ring on the back but i can only afford to feed her rice and biscuits right back ok i know i can will give him a. new day castelli. sherman has no health protection the only way she can obtain health care is at the some soul dispensary which offers free consultations.

oh ok. ninety percent of the of the workers develop an illness as a direct consequence of their work if you live beyond fifty. percent what are your symptoms of the six months i've gradually been feeling worse and worse the more i work out the weaker i get. where do you work than at the other factory. yeah women working in canneries are often frail. they suffer from the general infections the very joint pain fever and coughing.

children want to. finish it is often have respiratory complications going to the man and debilitated or dysfunction or their body was suffering from part problems and gastritis. simply. shamming also worries for her daughter who is not growing well i'm coming to. visit where is your child while you are working that if she stays of my little brother. i'm here for the last twenty years right along if you live here to see me in the film you're doing the films you coming here you believe if you want to. live. in this area bag no one is it.

would tell us he is three hundred times higher here than in the rest of the country but sherman and her family have no other choice than to endure the working conditions and to live in the sun breathable environment if you come home. this is your first time you come. here you come. here i'm coming from long sleeve. i don't feel really bad here. but if you take the one you should. see. this in the back everybody. recently and despite her age showman's mother was full. to go back to work in an open air factory in the center of the slum.

then get out of here there are some terrible smells better than what can we do. i wonder if we had rice in our belly what would worry about it but it can't be our priority today and. the countryside life is peaceful. in a country there well there is no work no food and in the winter. of a dish. that does happen. every year eight hundred thousand people leave their own fertile land. crowding to hazari bag and its surrounding area it's. a willing to accept such conditions because the turner is their only hope.

sharmeen is among these climate refugees she's originally from. the northern island of bangladesh i was engulfed by water in two thousand and five and i understand that. we had to come here because the river overflowed that lot of them and house was washed away. so i. think. mother did my parents have nowhere else to live so they stay here with us in that way only did they tell you that the on the way and i gave it to her what is your i'm also from boulder and i ended up here because my home was swept away i built my house seven times and seven times it was carried away by the flood waters i have no more land to live on and no money to buy more there was no more work for us there that's why i came to. i'm on the rails i

work at the tannery for forty five euros a month it's the only way for me to survive. on this yet. among friends and family some children also have to work to help their parents. sometimes i hear people have this in the bible well that's a good reason and that is and i think that the. most i think. the lanham supplemental for this and if i'm going to. get it. is not in. my family it's your mother who works instead of your father when you need me. the globe.

. real damage and complexity of this oil spill was not something you just by looking at dirty birds we have between four to five million people in this directly affected area of the coast and it's pretty clear why it's not being reported because b.p. can't afford to have a reported all along the gulf coast are clean they are safe and they're open for business if b.p. is the single largest oil contributor to the pentagon the u.s. war machine is heavily reliant upon b.p. and their oil this is a huge step backwards for democracy it's a step forward. carex it is toxic as it looked like spraying in vietnam it was it was not a picture that either the government or b.p. really wanted to have out there i don't want dispersants to be the agent. of
