More than 70000000 people around the world have been forcibly displaced thats according to estimates by the un most have fled their homes to escape war violence or persecution one of the worst migration crises of recent years is taking place in venezuela but this has nothing to do with war. By the end of 2020 the country will have lost more than a 5th of its population. People are desperate to flee the ongoing effects of corruption economic mismanagement and hyper inflation. Millions of venezuelans have left the country fleeing poverty and despair even though venezuela has the largest Proven Petroleum reserves in the world. Venezuela was once south americas richest nation. Now its a con and he has collapsed sparking one of the worst migrant crises of recent he is. Poverty has always been a fact of life here but when oil prices were high then president chavez launched ambitious social programs awash in petro dollars the country also continue to take on debt corruption further drain public coffers the oil crash of 24 team was the final blow. Its the most vulnerable who have suffered the most. Her. Lives with her 7 children in a slum on venezuelas caribbean coast her or her. Reinforcer its a. Battle my husband went to perth because of the crisis where you know that he went there to send us help the rebellion said. If he hadnt gone there we would have died of hunger. Than they were on one of them we would have starved to death that sunday when a lot of them were. Venezuelans hoping leaving in droves weve got a collapse of the Health Care System and soaring Child Mortality those without travel documents across the border to come here illegally the brain drain is an especially the bit of blue many of those fleeing you know doctors lawyers and teaches highly educated people that are badly needed at home. By june 21000 some 4000000 venezuelans had left the country out of a total population of just 30000000. Venezuela was once considered a beacon of prosperity caracas its glittering modern capital. Corruption didnt begin with president chavez who died in 20 for teen but in the 20 years since chavez 1st took Office Corruption and mismanagement have spiraled out of control. One of the linchpins of this system was Rafael Ramirez he served as minister of energy on the chavez and at the same time as president of the p. T. Vis our oil company for years his loyalty to chavez allowed the president to dip into the countrys petro dollars at will without parliamentary oversight or accountability. Javas had nearly unchecked access to oil revenues. Some went to fund far reaching social programs but billions also vanished into private coffers. Today at the end of it as both his friends and foes called him has gone into hiding in exile. Me you must soon as you said the simple i just made the Petroleum Exports brought in about 700000000000. 00 over the 10 years i was in office. When completed by my calculation 480000000000 of vacuum from taxes we got the rest from the producers Petroleum Sales of 700000000000 this is me the big question is you know whether this they do with that money so thats the big question going the country are going to prove. Venezuelas political to climb the gun under president hugo chavez. His economic policies pave the way to a morass of corruption. In the Industrial Hub of malacca most factories lie abandoned less than 20 percent of factories in venezuela are still in operation industry has been driven into ruin. Under chavez Numerous Companies were expropriated or nationalized and then were driven into the ground by mismanagement rather than support private industry chavez used petro dollars to import goods from abroad this help to redistribute wealth and power away from the old Business Elite and increase ordinary peoples dependency on the government a system of state sponsored terror is maintaining my daughters hold on power of the collective are paramilitary gangs who help quell any signs of popular dissent. Like syria and ukraine venezuela has global strategic significance the United States and russia are jockeying for influence without russian intervention my daughters regime would likely have collapsed. China has maintained its economic and trade ties to venezuela hoping to gain access to the countrys vast natural resources. Venezuela has become a bargaining chip in a global game of poker. The geo political terrain is shifting and in this new cold war new countries are becoming a battleground for competing interests. I dont know the citizens of those countries are being left to fend for themselves millions of people will continue to find themselves displaced forced to flee for their survival. Around 15000 u. N. Blue helmets stationed in mali. Their main task is to stabilize the country in 2012 twa reagan serjeants and jihadist groups took control of northern mali they were pushed back but there are still sporadic terrorist attacks Climate Change and poverty make the situation worse particularly in rural communities. Are reporting schneider and his team traveled to southern mali and met 2 people who have managed to bring more than just light into a small community. Of residents in the village of syria choro in southwestern mali are getting ready to welcome visitors the village has never heard electricity now thats about to change thanks to Thorsten Schreiber and his wife aida. Theyre the founders of a Company Called africa green tech they arrived to great fanfare. Their Company Brings solar power plants to remote villages in the circle region. Everyone here has been looking forward to this day for a long time. This is also in. So it is such a relief to finally achieve this and make it possible for the people here. Who. Has taken nearly 9 months of preparation when the moment finally comes where you know now its happening tomorrow theyll be light its a great relief. While the villagers celebrate the mali in technicians from africa green tech set to work right now youre right. Theres lots to do before the lights can go on after the long journey every component needs checking the containers spent 6 months at the Customs Office followed by a long drive lasting many days over sunday roads the solar system costs 150000 euros for her. Appears it will strengthen the local economy. And offer the effort to make a solar plant like this worthwhile you need a village with at least 4 to 5000 residents we also look very closely at whether theres potential for a productive use of electricity unlike home solar Power Providers our focus is on strengthening small and medium sized businesses so we want to know are there carpenters and welders and tailors here and we look for 40 or 50 small and medium sized businesses. Are going to say anything i need a schreiber was born in mali. Shes particularly keen to help the women here many of them sell goods she wants them to benefit from the new supply of electricity to. Them and im not going to give them an example and i am not even i suppose limitless most of the problems that the women here have stem from the fact that they have no access to education. As a result theyre much more focused on having children and the birth rates go up and up here on us africa green africa green tech does this offer them an opportunity to receive training and improve their chances of earning money its a citizen if the economy in the village improves the residents will also have more money to invest in their childrens education so beyond providing electricity its also about improving the villages prospects is it has lagged us our security situation in the so hell region is obviously a major challenge for us to know but we believe we can create peace by providing clean energy and addressing issues of clean water to when electricity allows people to increase their income theyre more willing to reconcile with each other in many of our villages these conflict situations have been reduced. It would soon as it is a conflict of quotes. In the village if they leave a 5 hour drive away thats. Already evident here a solar plant from africa green tech has been operating for 2 years now and the local economy is flourishing. Kaito runs a restaurant on the main road that leads to mollys capital bamako he also has a workshop and a chicken farm. In. That i was already on my way to spain but when i heard that electricity was coming to julie but i came back and opened this restaurant and thank god im now earning enough for all of. This to locate her has also created jobs providing a secure income for many other families in the village. Aida and thorsten keep contact with customers like my cater to learn from their experiences his successes confirmation that theyre on the right path. When it comes to fighting the causes of migration our experience shows that many projects address the wrong part of the problem they focus on migrants returning home seeking to reintegrate them through training but we need to address the issues that cause people to leave in the 1st place. If you give people prospects theyll want to stay obviously you cant reach everyone that way but certainly people like omar who want to make a difference. In 5 must be a big bomb. Back in syria core all the work is nearing completion the last few streetlights are being picked up some who were previously undecided now want to sign a contract with the company as they see things a really happening. So leave qualitys wife sells vegetables and poultry so he wants electricity in his house. Signed the contract because i want to buy a fridge and then my wife will be able to keep her produce fresh for longer and get a better price for it. My children will be able to study better and life here will be safer. Customers do have to pay for me at tricity but it costs a lot less than power from the diesel generators that are so widespread in africa. It takes about 15 years for the company to get the money back on its investment 18. 00 solar containers are already up and running including one in neighboring new shares for more are on their way to africa. One of. What motivates us as founders is wanting to make a mark bring change and inspire others to follow suit for me personally helping the environment is key i want my children to know that i had least tried to change things and didnt just watch everything got worse. Towards evening everything is finally setter. The control systems for the batteries are tested once more to ensure there would also be power when it gets dark. That it. Is shut that. That was an important moment if the Storage Systems wont work in that would have been it but now we can produce a light. At the back of the. 2 welds with close economic ties europe and asia how do they address social justice and whats the working conditions like we visit 8 countries on the 2 continents to find out how europe and asia Work Together find new series wet places. He sent his fields with to tonight he may hoping to harvest an organist was and the pottery is one of 3000000 farmers in bangladesh who raise the plant but seems to make barlow. The country has the ideal climate for jute cultivation its hot very humid and theres plenty of water. But during the last rainy season there was too much water flooding caused major damage to his crops thats why the pari now has to sell his judo under cost for less than he paid to plant it thats a big problem for him and his family. Barbecue. I feed my family by selling shoot what am i supposed to do now ive got my back to the wall you know some of my jew plants were washed away the market price is very low and the government doesnt help us either. Some 25000000 people in bangladesh are dependent on jute. After cotton its the most commonly used natural fiber in the world only india produces more of it than bangladesh. Jute is resistant to u. V. Rays and doesnt go brittle in the sun like plastic. The fibers made from it are tough but allow air to circulate that makes it ideal for transporting foodstuffs bags made from the fiver or a common product that manufacture the facilities like this one processing the fibers is a complex business the methods have barely changed in decades but the market has had to weather frequent slumps and many people here are afraid that demand for jute will continue to fall. Most of the back why have so much right i mean once upon a time of the jews was known throughout the world as the golden fiber as you know. That a large right before the invention of plastic the business was a prestigious one and very lucrative. Not nowadays the jute business has lost that shine. Recently however demand has begun rising again after all jute is completely biodegradable and the issue of climate protection continues to climb the agenda especially in the e. U. In europe to traditional fibers like hemp are making a comeback. Here in northern germany in the town of prince lao the plant is being turned into eco friendly building materials. Its classic wall insulation hemp works just as well as mineral wool or polished arina. Them provides a barrier to moisture and then and has low flammability blended with a clay loam it lasts for centuries. And most importantly hemp is a renewable resource thats encouraging its use in germany for decades hemp was viewed primarily as an illicit drug and farmers werent allowed to cultivate it battle has now been relaxed but strict conditions remain in place when it comes to planting on a large scale only particular types of authorized. Industrial hemp doesnt have any intoxicating effect it grows very quickly and can be used to make a range of products. And growing hemp requires a lot less water than cotton in some cases just half as much. 2. 5000000 tons of juice are processed every year in bangladesh the industry is one of the nations most important economic sectors but revenues have been falling for years. The state owned Bangladesh Jute Mills corp the owner of this mail is mired in debt. For years the government has been propping it up with big injections of state funding but workers still sometimes have to wait weeks for their wages. On average they earn around 4 and a half dollars a day. Now its under i earn about 110. 00 a month i can barely feed my family on that i have huge doubts. Working with a roar fibers is dusty and strenuous and in the long term it also harms your health for. Breathing in too much of the dust leads to chronic respiratory disease many workers here have problems with coughing and shortness of breath in germany the illness is known as humph bite a lawyer or help work out loud. But its not an issue at the hem Processing Plant in the local market region thats because most. Of the work here is done by machines the company has a staff of just 15 and most of those are machinists the founders and staff of set up a cooperative and everyone has a say in the business they all believe hemp has a Bright Future. If you are busy i believe the most important thing is if we as a company realize that products have a bath and an end and that they have to suit our lifestyle from beginning to end but whats known as cradle to cradle means not just producing stuff im leaving the waste for the next generation to clean out hemp speak advantages that you dont have to have a new song its all synthetics which makes it a natural product throughout the duration of its life. In bangladesh developers are now looking for products that will promise an equally Bright Future for jute like Mubarak Ahmed can hes develop a sonali bag an alternative to disposable plastic bags made from jute it has all the properties of plastic except its unwanted longevity. This is totally environmentally friendly by big. Composter then most important is to just. Buy bigger debate if you want for 6 months to get it. We can make that one if you want one of the pipe minnis we can make the 5 minutes. The next step is to find investors to enable the mass production of this alternative to plastic that could give juta fresh and much needed boost and restore its past reputation as the golden fiber for bangladesh.
