with me is jeremy thomson—cook who's founder of complete currency consulting.ook at the independent, and what it says about the disaster. every day last week we were reporting on this, we were waiting with baited breath, hoping they would do a deal. get the deal. either get a bailout from the government or current investors were able to put together a rescue package. there was a bid from a chinese company, a big chinese travel agent who were going to take over 75%, but obviously that has failed to materialise. the independent, what they are talking about is that this is notjust thomas cook was my problem, this is the travel industry's problem as a whole. i remember as a child it was a package holiday, i absolutely guarantee. don't book it, thomas cook it. it became part of the national conversation, that is how you had your holiday, went down to the high street, you got your brochures and sat down and took a0 minutes or so, paid your deposit and in six months you were ready to go on holiday. it made travel for many people affordable. it opened up his whole new

investors to step in and that's also looking a little bit shaky to how many people would be affected if thomson does go on to france and so if it does go under basically immediately the airlines it runs would collapse like condo we. a german airline $28000.00 people would be without a job and $600000.00 travelers currently on holiday with thomas cook in package holidays would basically be stranded $300000.00 of those germans the british government says if it's to collapse it will say it will bring the brits arm around $150000.00 british people and eat it has a scheme in place that would cover people who had booked a holiday and then couldn't take it it doesn't seem like the germans are so lucky there would have to rely on their insurers to bring them harm and to and to cover any future losses even though the company hasn't gone and it's important to note that people are still running into some fairly unpleasant situations like in tunisia there's a hotel yesterday that said it hadn't received the money from thomas cook and so it wasn't letting people who had been on holiday there leave the premi

earlier i discussed the report with ambassador peter thomson, the united nations‘ secretary general‘sm if the bottom line is we are simply over—consuming. i think it does probably come down to that. not just i think it does probably come down to that. notjust us, but ever since the industrial revolution we have been consuming probably in the wrong way, number one, but certainly today we are over consuming because of our large population, we have to change oui’ ways large population, we have to change our ways and we have to change them rapidly. when we hear about the amount of plastic in the oceans, it feels like it is simply overwhelming. realistically, what can people do? i think plastic is actually a winnable one, in a sense that we just have to stop using unnecessary plastic, and that is within the power of individuals like us within the power of individuals like us and it is happening all around the world. all the pacific island governments have either banned single—use plastics or are in the process of phasing it out. that is doable. busting is useful but only in the right place
