A job cant afford her own four walls. With a g. D. P. Of over nineteen trillion dollars the u. S. Was the worlds strongest economy in two thousand and seventeen its a country where dishwashers can become millionaires according to the American Dream at least but is that dream today a little more than a myth. According to official figures around forty million americans now live in poverty. And at the same time the cost of living keeps on rising the average monthly rent in the us is fifteen hundred dollars and in Major Urban Centers that number climbs to twenty five hundred. Those who cant afford such rents often end up on the street last year over half a Million People in the u. S. Were homeless. Pennies car turns into her bedroom everything she me.

San francisco is a well heeled metropolis this city used to be a magnet for counterculture but that counterculture has turned to corporate Silicon Valley is home to some of the worlds Richest Tech Companies but not everyone in the bay area is living the dream for many people here are falling by the wayside including the middle classes extortionate rent prices are forcing professionals out to the cheaper far away suburbs some even live in motor homes entire streets of them these people have literally been kicked to the curb. Among them is the royal family with three children and another on the way the mother has been cleaning other wealthier peoples homes for fifteen years the family had to move out of their apartment three years ago the monthly rent was three thousand dollars for a two bedroom apartment they just couldnt afford it but thats only staying here because my husband has a good job nearby but we cant move because we dont have any savings what can we do without money. They improvise with the small space they have barely getting by while the people they work for earn six figure salaries plus shares and bonuses the enormous gap between supply and demand is driving prices up and the housing sector here and normal earners dont stand a chance no matter how fast youre around you always end up in the same place and because. Our companies are doing so well googles hiring lincolns hiring into its our semantics are all these companies are hiring theyre hiring at a faster rate than we can get housing built and get Affordable Housing. Ellen isnt alone six years ago she married jim who recently retired but then he found out his pension wasnt enough to cover his rent. Both of them sleep in their cars and jim is reaching the end of his tether. This is not something that.

This house will probably be torn down a new one built so they basically buy why rehiring yes its a big beautiful lot its in a great location its easy to build honors no trees in the way or things that can you know inhibit the building so they can build their dream home here and this is how the other half lives ellen shows us where they keep their possessions that dont fit in the car everything valuable or important is in storage and hopes of better times some things have too much sentimental value to be discarded like the Christmas Decorations that ellen inherited from her mother. Died in my arms when i was twenty one and its back. I not how could it. I keep something. Coming out of them any more. I want to have the farm. Ellen is making notes for tomorrows lecture from her car also has to serve as her workspace. The Affordable Housing crisis has been especially severe on the west coast of the us california has the highest rate of unsheltered homelessness and the country. Got to keep going. I dont have time to really be afraid. If i do that then. Become. Static. People like alan are locked in a daily struggle for survival here in the shadow of Silicon Valley at the heart of americas digital revolution people are becoming invisible. I. Would like to change. My name is just the boss but i live in a cupboard and they were hiding jobs burke and im sixteen years old. I know when you go visit friends but. Now at bay states were fausto eyed by the staid old. I mostly play chess at. Oh. I listen to College Music at the moment the r. And b. And rapper is at the moment i feel i can relate. To. When i grow up id like to be a lawyer but at the moment im rethinking that because im thinking of becoming an english teacher. Because i see the great like the inspiration in my changes eyes which teaches me how to feel that way i would not. Want to help people because with all teachers do you think the great lawyers of today with believing the great doctors know it wouldnt be without them. If theyre out in frames playing chess all Walking Around in the fall having funny jokes. My fear is that one day. We will call into a wall war because. The way were living at the moment isnt the best way you could live. We live to fight instead of living to love. Forests are highly biodiversity ecosystems found in tropical and subtropical coastal areas and the long river estuaries in the one nine hundred eighty s. Scientists estimated that mangroves covered a total area of two hundred thousand square kilometers while winds now around half of them have been destroyed if deforestation continues at the current rate experts fear that in a hundred years the trees will have disappeared completely they blame the growing global population and the booming shrimp industry. The Southern Coast of ecuador is dr twitch. Countless shrimp farms. Around two thirds of the monk great forests that once lined the shore head have been destroyed to make way for them. To make the animals great quickly the shrimp fama speak them two to three times a day. I get that a lot why yes i know what you have to fertilise i treat the water on the ground. That around sixty percent of the shrimp survive. Thats a very good result but you need Fertile Ground sounds good water you know what i mean when shrimp meats salt water so the poems have to be filled with water from the sea thats replaced regularly the foam is cool serious environmental damage to prevent possible disease the farmers get the shrimp heavy doses of prophylactic medication when the pond water drains into the sea its taken up in the Marine Food Chain studies show aquaculture is increasing the worldwide danger of antibiotic resistance soloing. The medications are in the food that the shrimp eat these animals contains a wide range of different substances. But we only use antibiotics when the shrimp grow sick and the disease shows signs of spreading out in the last few decades that could or has become one of the Worlds Largest producers of shrimp poems are harvested every three months and business is booming along with petroleum and been known as the chris stations have become one of the countrys top export. Just under four hundred fifty thousand tons was sent abroad bringing in three billion dollars and exports are expected to expand this year. Diesel power to ration systems help people sitting levels in the poems high exhaust from the generators police the. Now not far from the old palms shrimp farm is a testing a new method developed in singapore and its the puns are placed in land rather than at the shore that gives spawn as much more control over conditions the palms of smaller but yields a much higher. After twenty five years this is our great cultural engineering yet my peanut i say turn to chapter. Now hes doing a new career as a shrimp fama. If the people if we feel sad and we feel that if were not our breeding well that is much healthier than the traditional methods you dont need all your early years my new antibiotics. And because of the roofs that cover the wrong you can control the temperatures better. But i thought that also because the water is unchanged you have more control over how to do not. See him. A pump like this seals around eighty to one hundred strength. To syria a lot more than traditional breeding methods. That scotch heat down to the fact that more creatures supply lunch here as well significantly increasing that value on the hold for global market. Easing off our people who drive down homey that the consistency of that last years eve firmer the model so its better and i say that the taste is exactly the same its not all about. Them even though the shrimp up being raised in fresh water brought them so well and if ation that allows farms to be set up practically anywhere rather than only along the coast. But it takes the animals a while to get accustomed to the different conditions. This is where we put that when they come out of the lab. Depending on the salinity they stay here five to eight days. Then we take them out and we put them in this time. That has lower salinity levels and they stay in there for another eight days. That we put them out in the pond. A modern system like this costs around two hundred thousand euros to set up the water is free used again and again and the system is powered by solar energy. And that i say is still testing it out and soon will be selling his first harvest of shrimp. This week in all global ideas series were off to the coke assists. Headed to georgia to meet the results will residents of one small village now theyve begun using solar energy to heat water which has a knock on effect it protects local pharmacists. Range. At six thirty a good fetches the hot water like she does every morning. The cows utter has to be cleaned before milking. A little later as well as the familys breakfast she makes cheese and requires a lot of patience she can tell the cheese is ready when the consistency is just right. Everything here runs like clockwork with no time for breaks. While those activities are housewife i have a lot of work to do i clean up make the food clear cows and lots of other things that would be a factor theres always something to do their office floor or. Not a good job and that side is sixty and was a nurse for thirty years she lives with her husband son daughter in law and grandchildren. That come out i always need hot water im glad we have this system. They received a solar powered water heater from a local Energy Cooperative. That clothes really had it right on my sales up a bit of money and sold a few things i didnt know it was my husband who really wanted this work never its quite expensive but it is manageable. Like. Mom was he trying to make her daily work easier i looked at it good i think it was mainly about saving electricity but i cant say for sure when we had the wood stove we had to go out collecting firewood and make sure we had enough so maybe that had a lot to do with it and the kitchen finished her left by that i should still. The cheese is ready not on grow bennett said is going to take it to the market. People here bring produce they grow or make at home like vegetables fruit herbs. And cheese. Mrs nonny has barely unpacked before a trader calms and buys the lot depending on the type of cheese she pays between one euro fifty and two euros fifty a kilo. A safe really dont get much but if you live frugally you get by we try to get by on it. Leaves her packing love is also in charge of the housework on her home plus the farm and the grandchildren. She still heats water the traditional way on a wood burning stove in the living room she needs a lot of hot water and therefore a lot of wood her annual would supply costs between two hundred and two hundred forty euros in georgia average income is under three and a half thousand euros a year. The club would come forward we save money so we can afford the wood but sadly there are a lot of families who dont know what were doing better than some we can pay for firewood the poor families current. Reform is going to have. Some of the day. The men collect the wood from high up in the forests of the carcasses mountains. Theyre still allowed to fell trees here. Gogu to here lets say is twenty seven. He comes here regularly. Go to estimates that each and every house in his area consumes about two to three truckloads of wood every year a little cruel to sit in the ocean its a Little Something to do if we cut down trees anywhere else we could cause rock slides which are dangerous for the residents. The forest might seem lush but deforestation is rife across georgia the number of trees being cut has to be limited to ensure long term sustainability currently over twelve times that number is being felt. The work of these two mechanics is helping to solve the problem theyre cutting solar panels. The machine dates back to World War Two but it still works there part of the Energy Cooperative the systems they produce here should help to reduce wood burning and therefore Carbon Dioxide emissions. The cooperatives provided solar powered water heaters to more than one hundred homes in the village. Johnny is a thirty nine year old teacher and head of the Energy Cooperative its name means turn on the sun. The system is being installed here today. So much i should let his residence know about the whole issue of systems and they know that banks are providing loans for them. To be out in cockroaches we dont have to go from door to door people who are interested come to us. Yet to has been using the system herself and shes impressed that when the mocks ive had one at home for three years already its great it saves money and makes the house work easier. None are good about it says back from the markets and the grandchildren are awake her son and daughter in law are at work so she has to look after the children no time for a break this is horrible slow mo im sixty years old and i think my life is almost over i do anything to give my children and grandchildren a Better Future i hope they have a better life.
