Cooper we first met Chef Jose Andres seven years ago in the wildly popular restaurant hed opened in Beverly Hills. Andres was born in spain, but america is where he became famous for his avantgarde approach to cooking. He has nearly 30 restaurants here, now, but hes barely set foot in any of them in the past two months not since Hurricane Maria hit puerto rico. Andres went to the devastated island a few days after the storm, to see how he could help. He is not a Disaster Relief expert, so he began doing what he does best. He found a kitchen, bought some ingredients, and began to cook. Its a good thanksgiving story because that first day, andres and his small team made about a thousand meals. Since then, hes recruited an army of chefs and volunteers, and together theyve served more than three million meals to the hungry people of puerto rico. andres singing jose andres is always on the move. In the kitchen, which has become his base of operations in san juan, hes a culinary commander rallying his troops. andres singing preparing meals for so many people is a massive undertaking, requiring trained chefs, thousands of volunteers, Assembly Lines of sandwiches 900 on this table alone. Jose andres good ham, good cheese, and a lot of mayo. Cooper theres a lot of mayonnaise here. Its all the more remarkable because none of this was set up before jose andres got to puerto rico two months ago. Andres i arrive monday, right after the hurricane, and i ask, who is in charge of feeding the people of puerto rico . And they told me, everybody. Everybodys in charge. You know, when you have to feed an entire island you need to have one one person and one organization responsible. Cooper there has to be a plan. Andres has to be a plan, and somebody has to be responsible for achieving that plan. Cooper andres came up with his own plan to feed as many of the islands nearly 3. 5 Million People as possible. He started with 10,000 of his own money, in cash, and pockets full of credit cards. How do you arrive at a place you dont know where the food is; you dont know where access to water is. How did it get off the ground here . Andres so for me, it was not difficult. The first thing i do youre a chef, you go and try to find a tchen. Everybody was saying, theres no food, theres no food. Well, that was not true. The big Food Distribution companies had food, because they had fuel, they had diesel. They kept their refrigerators and the freezers working. Cooper there was food here. Andres plenty of food. Cooper what was the problem . Andres the problem was the urgency of now. Its a very simple thing when youre a cook. When youre hungry, you gather the food, you gather your helpers, you begin cooking, and then you start feeding people. Cooper he joined up with a local chef named jose enrique and other volunteers, cooking enormous pans of paella and stews in a parking lot in san juan. It wasnt long before they were making more than 100,000 meals a day. Cooper how did you scale it up that quickly . Andres well, you know one thing, when these moments happen, we have a tendency to think, oh we have to feed three Million People. Almost, the idea is impossible. Cooper it seems overwhelming . Andres its totally overwhelming, but all of a sudden, imagine you begin breaking this. We are going to be doing now 25,000 meals. When you do it well for two days, you increase it to 50,000. And when you do it well, you increase it to 100,000, and all of a sudden, you scale it up in a way that is simple. Cooper thats a big pan. Andres its chicken, chickpeas. We try to put good amount of proteins, rice. Every puerto rican, i love rice. Cooper ingredients are often improvised. They cook whatever they can buy. Techniques are improvised as well. Jennifer herrera says a prayer for puerto rico as she pours oil into each pan of rice. Jennifer herrera translated god bless puerto rico. God bless puerto rico. Cooper the time it takes her to say god bless puerto rico is the exact amount of oil she says she needs. How Many Blessings do you give puerto rico every day . Herrera thousands of blessings. Cooper with the help of private donations and money from the federal government, josee andres Nonprofit Organization world central kitchen has prepared more hot meals than any of the other bigger, more experienced Disaster Relief organizations here, like the Salvation Army and the red cross. Cooper most agencies, if theyre giving out food, theyre giving out m. R. E. s or snacks or, not hot meals. Andres americans should be receiving one plate a day of hot food. Thats not too much to ask in america. An m. R. E. Is very expensive for the american taxpayer. A hot meal is more affordable its cheaper. Its what people really need, its what people really want. They feel all of a sudden that you are caring for them that america is caring for them. Cooper youre not just giving calories youre giving attention to people. Andres the calories are obvious, but this is a message of hope. This is a message, we care, and be patient, things eventually will get better. Cooper that message of hope is one andres has been preaching for weeks on social media. Andres so great. We got a refrigerator and fresh produce. Thank you thank you thank you cooper documenting his efforts to expand operations around the entire island. At the height of the emergency, he had 18 kitchens going at once, and used trucks, cars, and anyone he could find to deliver meals. Andres all of a sudden, i have Homeland Security helping us deliver sandwiches and water in the most difficult areas of the island. I had cooks from the u. S. Coast guard helping us, volunteering. We were having so many different men and women, coming from the federal government, helping us. rooster crowing cooper there are still plenty of places that need the help. In this community an hour south of san juan, theres no electricity. This is the first hot meal this family has eaten in more than two weeks. Andres dedication has inspired others in puerto rico to set up kitchens of their own. In a church perched in the mountains of naguabo, pastor Eliomar Santana and his parishioners cook hot meals for neighboring communities with the rice, beans, and sausages andres has provided them. Eliomar santana we have people here with no water, no no lights. They lost everything in their house, and they have stopped thinking on that for helping others. Cooper so, even though some of your parishioners need help, theyre still volunteering here . Santana yes, theyre still volunteering. Cooper theyre still trying to help other people . Santana theyre still trying to help other people. Cooper before delivering the food to a nearby housing project, pastor santana thanks god, and then jose andres. In the church, when you were praying, you thanked god first, and second, you thanked jose andres. Santana yes, thats very important. But i have to say, always say god first, then jose. Cooper well, joses in good company. Andres presence has not been without controversy. Hes been critical of the federal governments response to the hurricane and, after attending meetings with fema, the federal Emergency Management agency, he called their headquarters in san juan the most inefficient place on earth. Was that the frustration . That it was just bureaucratic . That there were a lot of meetings and you felt like things werent getting done . Andres we were already feeding 100,000 people a day, and i needed their help to make sure we had money to keep buying the food to keep feeding these neverending needs of people in need. And there is where call it red tape. Nothing was happening. Cooper fema did award andres world central kitchen two shortterm contracts worth 11. 5 million to provide 1. 8 million meals, but the agency refused to grant them a third, longerterm contract. Andres thinks the overall response to Disaster Relief needs to change. Andres the people of the federal government are great people. But then its red tape, that sometimes doesnt allow that same people to be successful. I didnt put the name emergency in fema. I didnt. But somebodys going to have to tell me the meaning of emergency. To me, when were talking about food and these the little thing i know is that emergency in food means one thing. People are hungry, and when youre hungry, its today. Cooper fema says, look, to negotiate a big contract, theres a bidding process. You have to have three Different Companies bidding on it. That theres federal government regulations. You say that gets in the way of. . Andres americans in puerto rico were hungry, and we were not delivering food quick enough. And what we did is, we didnt plan. We didnt meet. We began cooking and we began delivering food to the people in need in puerto rico. And what we need to make sure is that next time we are not negotiating contracts. That next time, the federal government is ready to do what they are supposed to do next time Something Like this happens. Maybe an earthquake, maybe another hurricane, or maybe a terrorist attack. We need to make sure we are ready, because the people of america dont deserve anything less. Cooper jose andres passion for Disaster Relief is a far cry from what excited him when we first met him in his restaurant in Beverly Hills in 2010. Back then he was leading a kind of culinary revolution pioneering innovations in molecular gastronomy, marrying science with food in surprising and playful ways. Andres are you ready for this . Because, i believe your life is going to change forever i mean it. Cooper this is going to change my life . Andres maybe. Okay. laughter cooper i dont know why i keep doing stories about food, because i dont really eat much and never really think much about food. But its so interesting to me how, for you, food is at the center of everything. Andres anderson, food touches everything. Food is in our d. N. A. Food touches the economy. Food is science. Food is romanticism. Food is health. Food has many of the opportunities to have a better tomorrow. Cooper that philosophy is at the heart of andres humanitarian efforts around the globe. He founded world central kitchen after the earthquake in haiti in 2010. Andres ive been here more than 25 times, to haiti. Cooper this past june, months before Hurricane Maria hit puerto rico, we met up with andres in haitis capital, portauprince. He supports an orphanage here and has established a Job Training Program for local chefs. Hes also spearheading an effort to reduce the widespread use of charcoal in cooking. Longterm exposure to smoke from cooking indoors on fires kills an estimated 4 Million People worldwide every year, most of them women and children. Andres has provided cleaner burning propane gas stoves to more than 100 schools in haiti, like this one in portauprince. I mean, focusing on stoves, on the idea of clean cook stoves, is not something that a lot of people think about. Andres i am a cook. I feed the few, but ive always been super interested in feeding the many. And when ive seen some of these women doing the change from the charcoal to the gas, everything changes around them. When we see these women cooking in the street with charcoal and we eat the plate of food, we should all be asking ourselves, how that plate of food can really become an agent of change. Cooper an agent of change . Andres a true agent of change one plate at a time. Cooper jose andres spent thanksgiving in puerto rico, continuing to feed people one plate at a time. This has been his biggest undertaking thus far. Andres every time there is a rainbow, you know things are going to get better. Cooper hes scaling back now, as the need for emergency food relief here lessens, but hes already thinking about how he can do it better the next time disaster strikes. Its all popculture trivia, but it gets pretty intense. Ahh. The new guy. Whoa, he looks he looks exactly like me. No. Separated at birth much . We should switch name tags, and no one would know who was who. Jamie, you seriously think you look like him . Uh, im pretty good with comparisons. Like how progressive helps people save money by comparing rates, even if were not the lowest. Even if were not the lowest. Whoa wow. I mean, the outfit helps, but pretty great. Look at us. Wow. I mean, the outfit helps, but pretty great. The all new 2018 camry. Toyota. Lets go places. Psoriatic arthritis tries to get in my way . Watch me. Ive tried lots of things for my joint pain. Now . Watch me. Think id give up showing these guys how its done . Please. Real people with active Psoriatic Arthritis are changing the way they fight it. Theyre moving forward with cosentyx®. Its a different kind of targeted biologic. Its proven to help people find less joint pain and clearer skin. Dont use if you are allergic to cosentyx. Before starting cosentyx you should be checked for tuberculosis. An increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur. Tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms of an infection. Or if you have received a vaccine, or plan to. If you have inflammatory bowel disease tell your doctor if symptoms develop or worsen. Serious allergic reactions may occur. With less joint pain, watch me. For less joint pain and clearer skin, ask your rheumatologist about cosentyx. Pelley Bashar Alassad destroyed syria in order to remain its president. The dictator, son of a dictator, has committed every war crime on the books bombing civilians, gassing neighborhoods, torturing prisoners. An estimated 400,000 people have been killed in the civil war, and 11 million forced from their homes. Last december, with his allies russia and iran, assad occupied the ruins of aleppo, syrias largest city. Various rebel groups continue to fight, and assad means to break them with another war crime the destruction of hospitals. What you are about to see is difficult to watch, but its worth it, because standing in assads way are courageous doctors, many of them american volunteers, risking their lives to heal the wounds of war. This is a hospital during the siege of aleppo. From the looks of it maybe, an exhausted father, a distraught mother and a child, at left, curled up on a gurney. That was an air strike. This hospital was hit 14 times in six months. This is aleppo again, last year. Al jazeera reporter amro halabi was covering the aftermath of a chemical attack. Once the e. R. Filled up, the hospital was hit. The nursery was evacuated. Then the camera found the neonatal i. C. U. Targeting hospitals is the atrocity that started the geneva conventions 153 years ago, and led to the creation of the red cross. It is the original war crime. Since 2011, there have been more than 450 attacks on syrian hospitals. Emergency medicine has be
