a light makes it profit, then it's fine, it's able bring success, been fine too, but it's not the way things is supposed to be involved. well, the main contradiction is not between the socialism and capitalism and the future. it will be between culture and ignorance, between spirituality and it's the lack of and this stage is already coming. are just about rubbing out the program here on the oxy international. thank you very much for sharing your time with us here in the russian capital. you can catch up with all of us stories, v awesome dot com, or, of course, the transfer of the channels that we have on the, [000:00:00;00]

the welding of the a sober tv toys. you know, cream dirty a showing. if i did, she shipped a dr. mean, i should put a control room for 2 of us, so we fixed you guys to move onto the system really being you have enough lots and lots of lots and lots. i'm assuming. yeah, we did the boom cloud. so essentially it's streams of dark news, but i'll let you draw both on the on there. okay. excuse. that's where you store
6:33 pm
lot of the my software, but just go to you store no satellite. if she ever always gives us, what are we shipping that just figured for a lift or slip that came over to them? i need deals says that you are in school, so that's the only for each of them or couple years. but usually we did not. somebody's whole bunch of numbers in years. i see the. busy best way to take a picture of i'll go a little please use drake though, so that i'm not pull up. schultz is not that bright and he isn't even worse. german chancellor, though he is self aware enough to understand and acknowledge some nations the double standards on russian, peo, colonial thinking. it would seem dice hard,

the natural disaster strikes without warning. and when they do, the consequences could be disastrous for civilians as well as the local economy if they are not prepared for. earthquakes in particular are extremely disastrous, as they can strive without warning. and these earthquakes can be catastrophic events for cities, such as the case with turkey, which experience a significant loss of life and infrastructure damage as the buildings were not built to modern code that can withstand seismic activity. i'm christy, and you're watching the costs of everything we're today. we're going examining the costs of earthquakes and what it would take for an economy to rebuild and recover the
6:35 pm
on february 6th target experience. earthquakes of $8.07 magnitude followed by more than $7500.00 after shocks and 2 additional earthquakes. this is the largest such disaster to hit the country and over 80 years, the regions affected have some of the highest poverty rates in turkey, and also host more than one point. 7000000 syrian refugees. the 2 earthquakes and february cost and estimated $34200000000.00 in direct physical damage in turkey, which is the equivalent of 4 percent of the countries 2021 g d p. recovery and reconstruction costs will be much larger, potentially twice as large g d p losses associated with economic destructions, such as loss of businesses, productivity tours and etc. well also add to the cost of earthquakes. and the total estimate for the cost of the earthquake has been around $84000000000.00, which is now 10 percent of turkey is g d,
6:36 pm
p. $70000000.00 is from damages to homes and building $10000000000.00 is from the loss of national income and $3000000000.00 from the loss of working days. value in human life also becomes a tricky situation as it is related to a person's earnings. these are lower and developing countries like turkey, so translating lies into dollars becomes quite problematic in that context. however, this does not include human misery, which is the number of people who lost family and is left without power or clean water. however, these estimates also don't take into account the multiplier effect that reverberated through the supply chains. for example, turkey is a big supplier of stone, glass and textiles. the earthquake has now disrupted the entire supply chain, affecting many retailers like hugo boss, h, and them, and many more as it seaborne trading helps remain crippled. the 2nd multiplier, it pertains to how quickly and efficiently businesses get back on their feet after
6:37 pm
a disaster. and the time lost before the cities can begin operating again. the 3rd has to do with what happens to the people who live in disaster zones. if they flee or evacuate, the local economy loses its labor base and the demand for goods and services in the area also declines. this is also the case in turkey when people are afraid to return to work in buildings, they believe to be vulnerable to collapse. and estimated 1250000 people have been rendered temporarily homeless due to building collapses. and over 50000 people died as a result of the earthquake. and over 500000 people had been evacuated from the disaster area. a 173000 buildings have so far been recorded as collapsed or severely damaged, including some of the newest apartment blocks. this has now led to urgent questions about building safety standards. modern construction techniques should mean that
6:38 pm
buildings can withstand earthquakes. however, the standards have been poorly enforced in turkey. in turkey, the government has provided periodic construction em the cities which are effectively legal exemptions for payment of a fee for structures to be built with out the required safety certificates up to $75000.00 buildings across the affected earthquake phones and southern turkey had been given these construction in the space, and even though $84000000000.00 is a heavy estimate, many suspect that the governments are under estimating costs in order to avoid further embarrassment when a government or business policy may be at fault for its last construction policies . so now let's bring in the patch cut theory of principal at media motor international. so now what country is the most vulnerable for a big earthquake disaster? and it's a, it's an interesting question. um there are,
6:39 pm
i would say any concrete which is a mix to a quick 4th or have cannot quit. busy and it's densely populated, is this more when the countries heavy popular countries like in the formula dish showing uh, troy key? no us japan, they are very vulnerable to damage and loss of life like from another quick. they might be in a place which happens middle somewhere that there's not a lot of people that wouldn't cause a lot of damage to the light ition and their people got the most damaging. they're expected. and now this is perhaps one of the biggest natural disasters we've had in the past decade. why are we not hearing more coverage on this? why is this not well publicized? here in the states?
6:40 pm
it's got to be the media. whoever picks up the story, everything, the story is, what sharing the people to share. i mean there's, there's almost 60000 loss of life, which to me is a huge number. and just so it doesn't happen to be live in the us. so if it doesn't happen to be in the us, it's not as much publicized from the us, people out and navigate for only so long for a story and then the media has to move on. perhaps that the reason is lot of the side. however, people who are on the ground living day and day out, they have to live with the consequences. and for them, it's not a shot media type. it's. it's a long recovery process. and be here at the model are actually helping because recovery process the after the huge disaster i p r. or
6:41 pm
do we do valuation of the house is going to scan to ensure that there was housing either the green guy got them there to get a a or the a yeah, look at the out of my head damage and only a few things for you to be done or the address that going on the house. so we are doing visa capital so people can actually, instead of leaving in the shelters, can go back into the out. what is the most expensive natural disaster in history? and how does this turkey earthquake compare and rank against it? there are a few. when it comes to the fact that she's the most expensive one, i would say was sure no, but it was in a natural disaster. now if you can come to the number of people, it was good to come in for me to insure
6:42 pm
india. and then if you just want to compare the cost of that for the 2011 japan, wait for the device, you know, and i think cost is not a fair question to me because each country calculates costs differently for developed countries like us and japan. the cost of interest up to the higher the deductible to be aust. however, let's say for example turkey the estimated cost of to the bachelor $84.00. ready is what is being estimated right now, which is, and it has ended up in $50000.00 last supplies. however, in japan, the cost was $360000000.00. and they've only let about $20000.00 flights last to the, to me cost to. it's not a good number to me the,
6:43 pm
the disaster should be actually waiting comes up and pressure turn off. and the loss of life encounter data, i would say the, the ga to know me in the, in the motion. so now me with the bigger disaster than that, the generic 2011. now click and then they all disastrous. but it does a loss of life that was much bigger power, turkey rebuild itself. now, when they are already facing surging inflation and as franky economy and a huge mountain of debt. yeah. and the economy. busy and wouldn't have a very, you know, they pointed out, but to me, the international community has to come in and help the turkey has to be really a, from the biological and most actual agencies such as you now school b, u, n, u. s. a child in all the agencies that can come in and provide support to help you out in the country,
6:44 pm
but maybe they can. maybe they can have it compared as impressed frontier. send me that impression to in touch location. and that you mentioned in may generate jobs and have the economy scenario was also affected by the earthquake and yet outreach to serial was less enthusiastic because of the western sanctions on the country. what do you make of this? do you think you military in a, during these times of the price? it's a trump sanctions or no? definitely, definitely the political human life and human life, your life in my life has the same value. just because my country a function told me that doesn't mean that my life is, and that's why you or it's not. and what city all human beings have the same vision, extending the courtesy and the relief prior to the feeling came
6:45 pm
back into it. if you didn't want to take it, you should do the same. you see, and of course i'm talking from a human and engineering perspective and i've talked to some of your political perspective. but to me, yes, we should support you. yeah. because we care. thank you. so much the past, cut the area, but please stick around depends. you'll be joining us right after the break. and when we come back, the cost of natural disasters very considerably depending on where they occur. the economic impact is worse in or countries since the long term effects last longer. we'll have more after the break
6:46 pm
6:47 pm
the welcome back to the cost of everything. now the costs of disasters very considerably depending on where they occur. when a large disaster occurs in a wealthy country, the financial damage may be quite large. however, when a comparable disaster occur in a poor country, the actual financial damage may appear to be relatively small, but the long term effects will be longer lasting. for example, the 2004 indian ocean earthquake and su nami had a death toll of around 230000 people. but the cost of it was reportedly only $15000000.00. in contrast, the deep water horizon oil spill in which only 11 people died. the damages were 6
6:48 pm
full that of india's california also experienced a 7.9 magnitude quick and 19 o 6, causing massive destruction. and so now armies costing $500000000.00 in damages, the equivalent of more than $13000000000.00 today. now in japan, buildings that were sitting on a rubber of foundation with stood the great hinge and earthquake, which killed more than 6000 people. this technique, which is called base isolation, is used and roughly 9000 structures in japan today. thousands of other buildings in the country have been fitted with shock absorbing devices that can greatly reduce and the damages and prevent collapse of 87 percent of all tokyo's buildings have been constructed according to modern and ty, seismic standards, and the japanese governments has spent $1000000000.00 to build as world famous seismic alert system that can detect the peak of a quick, 80 seconds before it arrives. this is
6:49 pm
a central to give the people the necessary time to take urgent steps like shutting off gas stepping away from windows. sheila, at china, italy, mexico and peru have all adopted the techniques to varying degrees. conventional abilities use concrete, so when there is an earthquake, the building will split apart and collapse. but with base isolation, the building will shake with the ground, so they may sustain some structural damage, but it will not split since the base is still intact. and we'll just weigh based isolators are like shock absorbers between the building and the ground motion, letting the building slide back and forth. and having the vibrations travel up through the building a base isolated building costs about 13 to 15 percent more than a conventional one. other technologies in japan include inflatable airbags that to play underneath the wind and home when a large earthquake is detected. and newer buildings in japan are also generally stronger and stiffer than american ones,
6:50 pm
with so called resilience movement technology. this is designed for the structure to better withstand, earthquakes in japan and the united states are 2 of the world's most technologically advanced countries who have responded very different ways when it comes to earthquake protection. japan's government mandate that it build stronger structures capable of withstanding earthquakes and being used immediately afterwards. this is also due to the much denser population. but the us, on the other hand, sets a minimum and less protect the standard with the understanding that many buildings will be badly damaged. but that's what insurance is for. this way of building allows builders and contractors to spend less maximizing their profit margin on the ability, which is very on line with the us as capitalistic culture. the american approach has the risk calculation and assumption that a building will be used for 50 years before being torn down and replaced in
6:51 pm
a severe earthquake, most american buildings are designed to crumble like a car and a head on collision, dissipating the energy of the earthquake through damage with the goal of preserving lives, there is an estimate at a 175 based isolated buildings in the us, mainly museums, hospitals, and older buildings in san francisco and los angeles, notably, apples, new headquarters and silicon valley has a sliding mechanism in the ground for earthquake protection, nearly 700 support con. sit on top of steel, pucks that sit on top of a massive steel saucer. when an earthquake hits the puck slide across the saucers as much as 4 feet, the net effect is that the ground jolts, but the building moves significantly less. and far more, let's bring in again, the patch cut the area principle menu model international. now depends if the same earthquake that hit turkey hit japan or california,
6:52 pm
how much damage would you anticipate? would there be the same number of lives lost? a good being that the buildings in california and the buildings in japan are designed and built to stand the buildings that existed in turnkey. at the back the cold in us in japan had been constantly be. ready been better knowledge of the building, our building to better stand there, stand out that every p h. we have a new cold name in california, and there's an improvement in the cold every 3 years to the buildings are getting together standard. i don't believe the building contributing to the same standards of the building that are key in this particular example um in the people infrastructure that lead to. so if we have that building our building to benefit and much better,
6:53 pm
we do liabilities for like 5950 means you'll be able to leave the building if there's a page that click like this and hopefully they won't come out. that's what the calls are for or if it's not a 100 percent guaranteed, but most of the building for the right people are going to get out. some of them are gonna collapse specially believe that will build in the 19 seventy's or the 5th . and if it hadn't been fixed, they, they may come back and there may be some loss of life over there. but generally the question will be very less loss of life. there might be monitoring damage being more monitor damaged with the light. so like most likely and how much will it cost turkey to now rebuild at city? would they have been better off investing an earthquake proof technology in the 1st place? easy, yes, easy answer to should have been investigating the they have actually maybe improved
6:54 pm
a quote in 2000 but their construction practice is need to be improved. so they should be part of quality control in the field for building new buildings, making that really properly their, their piece of put together in the battery is the best way to, to district way. and this should be standards implemented for construction. the buildings have done that will build before 2000. what do we do? we go in there, so it's clicking on the last. however, the building that exist, this should be political, real goal, and that will fit those buildings to save lives. and i want to know the phone number and what the cost would. ready from what i understand the
6:55 pm
disasters about it is estimated about $84000000000.00 at this time to the cost to the the going to be about the same. about 60000000000. it's going to be fine restaurants and reconstruction and about and the rest of the money is really just lost people out of work such do you think are quite safety standards should be federally mandated to save lives? or do you think this is a decision for the builder and for the bottom profit? why really should be the federal government be bordering by the people and the people to decide if they want to live all the work from building or not the people been got because if it's not the people,
6:56 pm
then you're the co mentor can only push the agenda so much, however, the people like you and me have to go to government and so they can mac and mentally existing conditions. no, you should be equally between the. ready things you need a local. ready for a long time, they buy the a 2 to 5 to 10 years, so they don't have it on the call and change that the old building and the duty mccloud. i'm going to be required on the building for a long time. and during that time, whatever happens if it's a form that i would like to get, it is a combination of both the tracking binding and the built as well. it has to be a combination of 4. thank you. so last a past cafeteria for joining us today. after the devastating 2010 haiti earthquake relief workers and international a port and to help the country. but that actually became
6:57 pm
a huge problem when there was a lack of coordination among the 8 organizations. many of the workers were inexperienced and there were no rules and coordination between all the parties. and that made it extremely difficult. a while there are no real winners when a natural disaster strikes, at least were all much better prepared this time around to provide aid. over $102.00 countries had offered assistance with at least $74.00 international rescue teams deployed. turkey has also cultivated a reputation and being a global leader in humanitarian aid. so this time around, it enabled greater control over where deliveries go. well, fostering direct engagement with local and national authorities, and hopefully going forward the community will learn their license and invest upfront. and better construction standards that will not only save lives, but also cost less in the long run when the most unexpected happens. i'm christy,
6:58 pm
i thanks for watching and we'll see you right back here next time on the cost of everything the, the russian states. never as tight as i'm one of the most sense community best in most all sense and up in the system to progress be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the rush of funding and supports the r t. suppose that keeping our

video agency roughly all the band on youtube tv services. what question did you say a request for chance? the brains are assassinated? they control everything from our ability to function to experiencing emotion. in fact, your ability to understand what i'm saying to you right now comes down to the amazing functionality of your brain. and yet there are still so much that we don't understand about how our minds work. so what happens when things go wrong up here? well, to find out the answers we came here to, you know, get up and speak with john. here's one of the world's foremost in our surgeons.
