12:38 am
news is that in this country you can still find coke bottles made out of reusable glass but this. what the american company is doing in tanzania what it did in the united states 50 years ago replacing the glass bottles with plastic ones. guts what is going on behind these walls inside one of the poor coca-cola factories in tanzania. all guide is james mother the manager of the new production line a production line which only makes plastic bottles today they're producing bottles of phantom one of the numerous brands inside the coca-cola group.

12:40 am
. 5 years ago this factory only fabricated glass bottles but on the day. evolve visit the production line for glass bottles is almost at a complete standstill. because they want to expose it to go way up but from plastic other g.b.u. way you are doing it but the trick apart from those who are different you do in terms of prosthetics that turns off us it's good to feel good. about. the aesthetic perhaps but the choice of plastic is essentially unless you glass bottles they are sticky hope of a good time of the book. told me i don't care about the guitar. only cares if. what our guide is trying to say is that plastic doesn't seem to be
12:41 am
a problem for the environment in tanzania so it's come back to business to see everyone now take care of the business but speak to the politicos bus to go see a difference in the cycle. now that our factory visit is finished we can finally show you the wonders of the ghetto bhutan setting up. in forgettable town that only. here are the real results of coca cola's famous recycling business and just by looking at the waste collectors we were told about it's clear that the recycling business is 1st and foremost a poverty economy. join me every thursday on the alex island show and i'll be speaking to us of the world
12:42 am
of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. sex drives us by the natural survival. when customers go by here it is sometimes. good now well reducible our. bets undercutting but what's good for market is not good for the global economy. room. as we speak large organized care of it are on the march to the united states. in the a in a player coming out part of getting. no swarms remains watering down. this is a virtual invasion of our country which so far is bigger than anything we

12:44 am
go before dinner for the both of us like them about an accident. you know your mail i don't have. evidentially death sunny is also leaving its mark in tanzania. by working 8 hours a day much i can collect up to 20 kilos a bottles at $250.00 shillings a keynote that's $0.10 she earns less than $2000000.00 euros and that's on a good day. someone is only going to directly after morning one of the parties are going to ask to help you decide if this couple a killer by ted yelled at us only to deflect in israel because the outcome of it all by the need to sell is a decision but it would still be there because the money and i need to conduct this
12:45 am
are going to come up. why the price is down electrical such as in the country and. too much plastic and too many people like mata who collect empty bottles just to scrape by. to bear witness to the most unsustainable side of this savage recycling economy we head to the longest tape in the land dar es salaam the economic capital of the country. every time a truck arrives to unload waste it's the same friends a. beggar
12:46 am
. but not a fool gonna order some ice was a white guy he's going to. use up to his name pinned. down you can as the brain does its job but with your board and i was it. you know you're going to. bury you national guard gasoline. and so they resort to using their batons to dig through other people's waste. but tell me what you've got an actual. when you join one of us and when i don't and then get on and. biased in my news imo you 0 to us here. at h. the model moon has already spent 2 years rifling through waste in such a plastic that's more than enough to know that there is only one move to the
12:47 am
recycling business here and need the strongest to make it. can all go where it resides. the next joke i buy is no more no less i dreaded that runs there are more than just about no not at all. it's time to clean the windscreen and head elsewhere. we get to meet the people who dictate the neuron the new market for recycled plastic. we find them in the suburbs of paris and. these are the companies who buy plastic bottles this one is the largest in the country.
12:48 am
before coming here we never would have imagined filming anything quite like this. a mountain of empty plastic bottles that you have to climb with 70 kilograms on your head. at 1st we're almost fascinated by this blue mountain and the incessant coming and going of climbers all smaller than their loads. but then we took to the.
12:49 am
yeah but actually it was our. enemy to me. that i'm not going back. and i'm. not going to get it in the sand on that level course that's looking. at the foot of the mountain these workers begin their final sorting session they put the colored bottles and plastic bags to one side. they put the clear bottles into large bags these bottles then go through these machines to be reduced to small pieces before they can be recycled. and. until very recently the company exported this plastic to china the largest buyer of recycled plastic in the world this is what the side manager is about to explain to us. yesterday when i was working and asking for collectors tell me about this on
12:50 am
the price wonder if you also go down the wise to buy. this was always told. to send him back in the east bank live ready to explode because does not know if you know my kid so what did you do when you couldn't export to china oh i keep on buying we buy and we buy you but you see the money thing this is because you couldn't sense of time oh yeah so i can relate. in 2017 china announced that it no longer wanted to be the world's largest rubbish bin and that they would stop importing used plastic from january 28th. this decision to the collapse at the recycled plastic market or precarious business and an economy that rests entirely on the backs of the most vulnerable.
12:51 am
back at the coca-cola headquarters we speak to michael goldsman the vice president of the company again. so that it will pick up because it messed up the year. it says. if. there's a down does that mean we don't. have a fake us because if you. says the measure. son no. you know as you would expect this.

12:57 am
still taste the feeling in plastic bottles 0 waste does not mean 0 plastic and the promise of a circular economy is very far away to conclude our investigation a single statistic. during the length of this film nearly 13000000 bottles of plastic liftin so by the coca-cola group throughout the world.
12:58 am
we have to be expectation that when we lifted people out of poverty when we became richer then we'd become. and i think that is what a lot of people struggling with now the. spectate that once they reached a certain level of income then they would be happy. and yet we create new size we create new things we want and i think sometimes we run out of explanations for why we feel unhappy. my 7 years doing trucks my nephews was still in drugs my sister spent doing drugs it was like an epidemic of drug abuse america's public enemy number one in the united states is drug abuse he started going after the users in the prison
