3:30 am
really whacks expedition that came from all right let's move very good everyone i'm shanley i'm your skipper for this late it's going to be an awesome week i have been living on board see dragon for the past three and a half years now and she's a great home yeah we're. going to get to go in this film cameras already here. hi guys i'm john mission coordinator for this leg of x x that she can be and i was on the first x. expedition across the atlantic in two thousand and fourteen with emily. i had never sailed before and mary morris unless i'm going my way i'm from wales in the u.k. and i'm the poet i'm from germany a little hamburg and that's that it marrying geology and my background is in biology and also pharmaceutical sciences i'm studying green enough for history for the i'm an all chased a marine scientist and then i'm also about promoting women in science and been
3:31 am
really a strong supporter about women in stem careers. then the last thing is i'm a breast cancer survivor you guys don't get seasick i believe that's not a problem but if it is we're talking about weird appeal right the best place to be is inside the comics so that's what we call this mistake here that you'll be sitting on it runs up and down your inside of the clinton not trying to hang over the side of the boat to get into the water just you can decide to actually have a hose these guys here these little blue bits here are called the eclipse so basically when the boats heeled want to wear the other we're kind of rolling back and forth this is what's going to keep you in your book the right on the right. train times that already spends twenty i think so long hikes and say twenty times up the. wall so this will rise a little bit but so the writing. you know and then you just still want to go
3:32 am
in there ok. and think this might be her now let's see enough and to have that you know in sabrina. brand i'm leaving at that and you're both down the would be awesome. mike on the how you're. right hope. it is because the president. and. you. can't be running. no i'm terrible and letting him come much easier than i think you. know things
3:33 am
got ahead and i just knew him to say. you know what he would like to try but there's not a drive to drag me through with the on the that he's excited to get right to nurse the bad there are. they the reality is that they see these islands that we've heard of they don't exist in the middle of the ation you do you get an high accumulations in a and we see these photos of these masses of plastic that looks that you can walk on them and but they're all very costo out in the middle of the ocean we get some areas and wind swear we get localized areas where big a piece accumulate but the reality is the most the ation is covered in this fine lair of micro plastics tiny tiny little fragments and that's what we're looking for hit today in the sample everything that was. she knew very.
3:34 am
in the woods and now we've just been adjusting. to it to get that will actually flying along the sickness and we don't want it to dip down and we don't want to skip to the top they will basically now will she now to make sure that that. is going into and into the troll will do this the next few minutes and then. i think the biggest thing that has shocked me is that we've never had an empty troll no matter where we've been whether it. and the caribbean the baltic. out in the middle of the atlantic we've always. kind of scary when you haven't seen land for like eight days sailing out sea is or was the closest people to you are in the space station and you're still finding that human and. like.
3:35 am
the. caribbean it's lucky because it isn't on the team one of the giants one of these accumulations things we hate to see what is here actually happened to. toxic so that will just that worried me to the client states they were curious as to why it's not. good but we've seen so far should they leave the styrofoam. take away containers. must take. the ones. home the smoking gun. i mean take this on on even the slightest. thirty minutes yet it may. come again sometime
3:36 am
and so are days or rinsing all of the things that we captured into a set of three sets of differing might so there's the top serve which will catch the fingerprints of that as we go down smallish and we're going to use. these. to capture certain things so things that we think that look like last leg and even interesting organics biota that we might want to have a look at down the microscope. that. oh no these things are. this is plastic. and yet can you see it is so obvious. that if you think it's just a little stretch of ocean it's
3:37 am
a little bit of motion that's quite scary because we always find something. the more time we seem to spend see the more we realize that the solutions to say many of these things start on land and that's a big reason for the shift for the caribbean it's expeditions now to be say a land based. where the abandoned yes. there's no doubt what i want sunk. this is an area just over this next door it's a little fishing community we're just going to try and do an estimate here the plastic bottles the palestine and everything that we're seeing and see that we can record in the rain every time yet. it's
3:38 am
just that it's just that they don't come here to everybody. wanted to impress the banks and to see if you can give an estimate of what we've got here and spend if you want to. i've been counting polystyrene alone so basically these containers here that you can see that are for takeaway food so people obviously come in they just throw them into the water as disposal i mean rochester there's another one i had counted four hundred thirty eight pieces of styrofoam alone like we can recognize these things now spray bottles these dishes the styrofoam we recognize the stuff but once it gets out in the ocean what you'll find is that plastic breaks down really quickly because of the movement of the waves and the sunlight the u.v. it breaks down smaller and smaller and smaller into little plastic fragments so it may not be harmful for that little fish that eats one fragment of plastic but once it makes its way up to the food chain it's getting to levels that are harmful to
3:39 am
human health and marine health too so this is the kind of thing that you. don't want to see just as much as you don't want to see little pieces of fragment when we pull up or shall. there be a guy been sued or something for it but we don't have the equipment so somehow we have to think of some way of getting all these so you know and the main focus and would first be cleanup and then in the sort of bigger picture along with him of what you might like to see instantly we don't have a lot of additional grumpy simply because we don't have much. to do but you want the old really look to do you know we can show people the results of their bad disposal practices you know that kind of the so put it in the documentary you dismiss him general education all this is really. well with the first being and yet. yes absolutely thank you david and when i say
3:40 am
anything you i mean michel yes i will do very well again yes ted all right. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. is a rich one trillion dollars and more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of the global wealth you long to the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember is one one business show you can afford to miss the one and only.
3:41 am
if like there's someone else living inside of me like controlling my body. the byproduct of that drug is because like some of your friends. because it will need one to zombie it's crazy. you know and we don't have to do anything it's not our fault you know since crazy and all that. took years to traumatic takes a long time to get rid of. i happen to be a nigerian happen to understand what happened here the p.m.c. that came here was not contracted to win the award the fields he took came here plus a contract to train. a unit and to create there for me and then to go into combat
3:42 am
and the g.p. limited effect. on me on rocks big dust and well that's what i said but men want to know what i did what is a made man mine did my lawyer use mr trump card and just been trumped by. i think. every bishop learning on ours. so we had the lamp balance and we should today we need to try to get an understanding of the big challenges around waste management on these small islands the way you have ordered this plastic is your depending on importing packets to be made to see the world comes wrapped in plastic and is really very limited options to what you can do with that
3:43 am
few things get separated the majority of it does get buried you can see here you know this is this is where all of the waste from the whole island and so it's not really any sort of separation happens either household level and for a place to set the sea level. plastics are all issue though because i'm sure you've seen them all over. there even more expensive to deal with because you need to collect so many things just because you know or so if it's a wedding to. some of them to wow so much. to well happen to all this trash you know it's not really a system to do it. makes me sad in one way. oh it it's really. underside don't even know what to say those like bags flying
3:44 am
about the way. where they can. look at learning the first take the next. this is the anything hundred ten times and expanding say was quite a new concept is it just getting going and they see the name and is working with. schools to get in school construction that wait for. safety tell me she said they sometimes if we keep our sponsor. going that way so she want to do the right thing and eventually we'll hopefully get to a household level as well. give us a decision. thank you.
3:45 am
3:46 am
just like. you go to. the. we see a lot of plastic that's going down drains running down streams and with eyes and ultimately everything brands down hail to the asian he has to be parents rotating around and the plastic goes into these parents is what we call and john i had. these thoughts it's the walls cities in. a this edition stats here are land. plastic bags for the cost of. two very good question because we didn't really need them and sale is something like that perhaps you could go and tool to the
3:47 am
supermarket and i asked them if they need to provide a way to take a carriage vehicle to bring that and instead and this in some places around the globe they have now to put and tags on the plastic backseat pavement which is really reduced the number of plastic bags that anybody uses really the rule it can be more of that or. not the specs of. the lose. those. washed up. so we got to kill.
3:49 am
oh i don't want to talk about these very bad. become we know the main group that are very experienced they were fine but everybody else split one thing basically. ways to break my head to see this huge way it's not just completely such i'm just saying that i had no idea that. stuff like this are not just kept. flying up.
3:50 am
3:51 am
and me yeah. this is like you know gets from here all the way in which is sealing the french for my last chemo is january eighth and my august i still looks like my some and ellie is oh you know it's like you know me like sherborne house he. came back around. hurt her. and i guess sessional sad and she went out like create my hand in life all of everything plays about how the hell i know. maybe it comes back to it wesley
3:52 am
clark hope so right before coming on this trip i celery this is my two year anniversary for being cancer free that part of this trip for me is also raising awareness about these chemicals that are in our environment they're in our oceans they're in our seafood they're even in our ground water supply and thinking about what are we putting into our bodies and how that's ultimately affecting us truth be told one in promise will get cancer. of the hardest moment. here you spend your time on the hardest moment. i guess. i'm going to have five but you will try. to do not too much. but is tied to the affects of q mono.
3:53 am
you know sometimes ignorance is bliss and we don't know what wonder drugs going to do to you. then you kind of don't worry but as a scientist and having studied a lot of stuff i knew. what they were pumping into my body and what was about to happen. to ours who is a spirit. so i was more scared of the drugs keep sir. i love the chemicals that we're finding in the action and we all flying in our own bodies and cost an engine i mean the fact that they are increasing makes has failed like made that probably application to the pricing right that patents and definitely being part of expectation on. the toxic chemicals that i'm feeling to my body over my lifetime i would pass that on my children. the only reason why it would be like. to become
3:54 am
3:55 am
get. out yet you know you're really good at this is very sad when we say sixty. six and these they get used once maybe twice and three times at once and didn't. eat any reasons for. their drink yeah. that's right that's a perfect example of single use do you think you could do without a strong. do you think we're capable of looking at lifting a glass to our lips and drinking from it have lots of other alternatives to you like glass containers for your life the result home and these are all things that you guys they take back your parents now because you can tell them let's stop using plastic or at least reduce our use of plastic do you think you guys could do that
3:57 am
in twenty forty you know bloody revolution appear to crack the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it your style or here i mean your list book video threw me in the neighborly as i knew pulling you to the former ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty fourteen. of those who took part in this state over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. lawmakers manufacture consent to instant of public wealth. when the ruling classes project themselves. in the final merry go

round certainly the one percent. we can all middle of the room six. million real news is. us veterans who come back from war often tell the same stories. were going after the people who were killing civilians they were not interested in the wellbeing of their own soldiers either there already several generations of them so i just got this memo from the circulating branches off that says we're going to attack and destroy the government and seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with their money others with their lives if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a war. and surely we can risk some discomfort for uneasiness
3:59 am
