And the lights went out in the worlds movie theaters the pandemic has been disastrous for the arts across the world with cinemas closed the global Film Industry alone is set to lose billions in 2020. Brazil is among the 3 countries hardest hit by the pandemic with barely any commissions around the artists and musicians many no longer have an income more than 830000. 00 jobs in brazils Creative Industries around the stretch. An important part of life is a risk of disappearing completely. Gutted. The teens is a somber sensation his music is full of energy and life. Saving. And in Rio De Janeiro knows hes hit land as the matter. If i sadly dont go. Back things are quiet in rio these days jwoww still plays his songs but for some a start. Theres no audience and no applause no one that you can enter into a dialogue with so that they become part of somebodys lives from the crowds when theyre just part of the show singing travelling together. Rio was one of the 1st places in brazil to be hit by the corona virus it spread rapidly through the poor neighborhoods off of a less. The death toll is continuing to climb those who can stay at home. Normally it would be crowded out here this bar used to hold parties but thats over theyre all home now in their own cages. And these cages have only served to deepen brazil social divide music and dance play a key role in society here bringing people together from all over its of life. There are huge differences in Brazilian Society but the small bars and the beach are the 2 places where those class differences disappeared the lock down has meant that people are keeping more to themselves the intermingling which has always been part of rio has been lost. To their work. The extreme inequality is another reason why the lock down never really worked in rio the citys numerous Cultural Centers maybe deserted the concert halls bars cinemas and theatres shut but the narrow streets of the old town are full of people who have to go to work. The emergency aid provided by the state is not enough for artists to live on either instead of rehearsing she while now goes to the supermarket his wife cooks meals which he then delivers to the delight and surprise of the customers. No more than one no mozart one girl wrote i cant believe it my teens just delivered my dinner i wrote back yes hes my husband she said she nearly had a heart attack and shes a huge fan of his thats how it goes thanks to him im selling more food. Holly and shes had also had to find a new way of earning money a street crossing now serves as they stage the red light signals curtain up for the 2 circus artists they then demonstrate a brief glimpse of best skills and hope to get a small donation before their audience drives the. I. Love it when i see the cars i imagine lots of chairs and im putting on a show i smile at them even though sometimes i cant see their faces and even though im just at the traffic light i imagine that im in the circus arena. On a good day theres smiles and acrobatics well and then the equivalent of just under 10 euros they could look for more lucrative work but their performances here also Service Training sessions which they want to keep up with the hope that they can later return to the circus. Camp look for a job as waiters for example because that would be bad for our career this is our dream so we keep going is this song im sorry i didnt you get it once in wylie. A few years ago they fled from venezuela now they fight for survival is continuing here but its not only artists who are suffering during the pandemic brazilian culture is in crisis mode its always been very much a grassroots phenomenon but now faces a threat from the very top. She believes the real problem is not the coronavirus itself but brazils president. Since coming to office last year he slashed funding for the arts and made it a political issue it has nothing to do with the brazil that we love the indigenous black brazil with the rich culture that has created so much beauty its almost like they want to destroy that at all cost and. This is and she says his country is in the midst of a culture war and the virus has robbed him of his voice his ability to respond effectively using his son by the hopes he can bring his music back to the people of rio soon. As just like in the old days. Crowded hectic loud. And yet theyve long held an almost magical appeal 500 cities worldwide base more than a 1000000 residents by 2030 around 7600000000 people are likely to live in urban areas most of the global population but they could be a change in the air a shift towards a slower pace of life with infection rates on the rise in cities Rural Regions again in a pail. The clear is cold and malleable both mother and daughter are skilled in the art of pottery margarita learned it from her grandmother this was the most that she said as long as we live here we belong to the soil we work the earth and she gives us the food we need to survive and this clay also comes from the earth we have no roots here was a star most. Most. It only takes earth and fire to create all the new parts and dishes lined up here. Its the rainy season and the weather is unpredictable. What if we get heavy rain no all our work will be lost. The family is almost so sufficient. They grow almost everything they need. Or they find it in nature grasshoppers are full of protein. The seasons bring variety and there is seldom much of a surplus. For margarito living in harmony with nature means giving and only taking back a little while there must come we dont need a lot to live we have to respect nature she should only give us what we really need we shouldnt exploit nature that. The garden offers a little home apothecary. There is an herb for stomach aches a plant that reduces fever. And one that really sore eyes. You needed a bit then drip it into your eyes. While people in the city worry how to survive and make ends meet during the pandemic life here goes on much as normal many in the isolated valleys of southwestern mexico live like margarita and her family in a close relationship with the land these people are poor their traditional way of life is tough but their independence and lack of close contact with the modern world might be considered a strength in the current situation. Gregorio is about to go and visit her sister and so her pottery its an hours walk that doesnt bother her but shes not too happy about leaving her animals alone she has a strong bond with them. I think there has to be a balance between people and animals. Its not about dominating them. We have to respect their lives. So riva gregorios sister is waiting for her dimitri has been thinking a lot about people animals and the environment especially now during the pandemic shes curious about modern life and the wider world. That raised. Me do people out there also feel joy when they see animals run and play they play a lot of course can also do a kind of handstand do you ever see that. Or when the rules fight or when they play you dont see that either do you. Know. Demetria is shocked to hear how animals live on factory farms with him ethic imagine if people had to live like the animals all crammed together how do you feel the idea. Dimitri i once visited mexico city she recalls all the concrete cars and trash she says should be life changes people just see at the gate like it that everyone rushes about and seems so agitated they dont get any exercise walk anywhere or enjoy the scenery they push a button for everything and ride escalators. But that the best let us admit. They only meet here on special occasions perhaps once every few months after all hens provide eggs and should not be sacrificed lightly and their offspring take time to grow and reach maturity demetrius sees value in some kinds of progress and says she could use some here but wouldnt a step back to nature be a step forward now. Look at that we have to take care of the world around us this is an opportunity to think about things we shouldnt exploit her and use nature so badly. To made clear is also a potter and to businesswoman she and her neighbors Work Together today there pottery is being picked up to be taken to the cities and sold demetrius sr gregorio has arrived now to their workers in demand because its not mass produced but handmade from unnatural material. This is important but we can all learn from their way of life and their way of thinking maybe the world is ready for that now and the need of it. The weather has been kind to margarita and her family the rain has held off jugs pots bowls all fresh out of the kiln theyre decorated with splashes of dye made from oak park. Traditional crafts a remote location harmony with nature a winning recipe perhaps for getting through the current global crisis. And now its time for snack this week from the kenyan capital. On a nairobi Street Corner near the busy road winning sellers who spouts. She makes a kenyan version of a kind of bread that originated in india. And. You know what im the flower and so are. First minutes. Mixing some of the salt in the water. Of the cup oil for the cup then you make a good there are 2. Once shes shapes a flat round party she puts it on the griddle. Occasionally she flips it. While one is cooking and when he rolls out the next one. It takes about 5 minutes to make a party when he makes between 20 and 30 a day. At breakfast. Time people like to eat the calorie rich to party with a cup of tea or coffee and for lunch with beans and rice for vegetables. You wouldnt think of but right now i didnt put up with you until one. Am on here. And shoes and bags made from leather status symbols across the world lead the production is an ancient craft its made from animal skin and many animals pay with their lives to satiate our design for it but there are alternatives for our global ideas theories we headed to indonesia to the city of banda east of the capital jakarta and there we met a young inventor has found a way to produce leather from mushrooms. Here on the outskirts of bandung a city on internees main island java something is being cultivated that could be of great value. Mushrooms. They rarely draw much attention there are many species with many varied properties. Some are now rushing others contain medicinal agents. Here that the raw material for an innovative kind of textile mushroom is supporting rian to be Sustainable Future leather you curious cruel mycelium of edge of the fish part of the fungus that can mimicking perfectly like a letter without any be your p. V. C. Or any chemical context race material. Comes from a family of mushroom farmers in 2012 he and some colleagues founded a start up for gourmet mushrooms but they quickly changed tack to focus on my sili im back committed to developing a sustainable and animal friendly fashion industry. Imperator animal or myself or larry is having a really huge advantage in Environmental Impact and for example we can show him less water we dont have to kill animals we can move vertical farming so we can save some space and its also am its a really last carbon emission. They feed that mushrooms with organic waste such as sawdust that company micro tech sources it locally. Whats waste for the wood mill is a recyclable treasure here. First the sawdust is cleaned with steam. Then its mixed with tiny mushroom spores. They consume the sawdust and at the same time on the outside of the sawdust blocks they produce tightly woven my celia which can be harvested within a few days. The process uses a fraction of the water used in standard letter production less than 110th. This has caught the attention of lunda he makes and sells shoes many of course are made of leather but these days hes keen to find alternatives. For Leather Industries one of the biggest contributor for carbon emission and we see that as long as we keep selling. And as the cells grow we keep damaging the environment and then it came up to realisation that we need to find the so sustainable solution. At 1st he balked at the notion of mushroom lever but his team have now learned how to work with it. My sealion fabric is breathable flexible and robust it can last for years. And its an eco friendly Sustainable Product Companies around the world are discovering its advantages. My sil. Still have a long way to go theyre not yet widely available not yet a mass Market Product that has higher costs because due to this meeting. We still produce a limited quantity its a learning curve but as an Innovation Company we need to and i think the future will be very bright for us. To grow and his team agree that busy ramping up production they already have orders for us far ahead as 2027. So currently we are producing 2000 square feet of matter per year over year demand is really huge so we need to double down our capacity in order to keep up with. The company is growing it used to have just 5 employees now it has 30. It monitors carefully the quality of its output even testing samples to destruction. It also breeds its own mushrooms and works on optimizing them for the task at hand. It gets some outside funding for its play nearing research that helps sustain the startup. Will go the extra mile with his mushroom leather shoes its a great idea whose time has come. Jam packed terrified without food imports how Long Distance transport can be torture for animals and often theyre being taken to the slaughterhouse or to fatten breeders far from the farms they were raised on. In the. Around 3800000 animals are transported every day mainly pigs poultry and potential of 1400000000. Taken far beyond. The borders of the e. U. Covering thousands of kilometers over many days with barely a break. Animal rights activists have long demanded and life transposed now some farmers in switzerland have got one step closer to achieving balance. At the most whole farm and thence book my own son director and lucas was labri mother callous for raising beef cattle. The mother cows produce larry and the near full get it done production their offspring are taken off to be slaughtered for me when theyre 18 months old the transport puts the animals under enormous stress and is unpleasant for the farmers too but thats about to change. The scale here. Slaughtering the unanimous is something we accepted as part of the job. The way of happiness can sometimes be disturbing that we use our own trailer to get them to the slaughterhouse. So both the environment as soon as theyre in the truck in the doors close and they realise i cant get out i cant get back to the others thats when the stress sets and they start acting nervously they move they want to jump out it can be quite a challenge being clawed assistance that. Transports a misery for the animals it can take a whole day to collect cattle from the regions more remote areas and get them all to the slaughterhouse an increasing number of farmers dont want to put their animals through that torture any longer they want to slaughter them on the phone to switzerland recently legalized the procedure. Of famine news miller pioneered the process for years now hes had a special permit to shoot his animals in the fields he needs a raised platform to shoot from and a hunting license the cow falls to the ground unconscious. Stress free. Research has shown that if the target animal was not stressed beforehand the rest of the herd dont even notice what happened the stunned count dies soon afterwards when its bled out. For millions on the edge and look at what the hells to die with a minimum of stress in the future this is one of 120. 00 swiss farms interested in slaughtering their animals in the field or farmyard. Switzerland legalized and regulated both methods in july its unique in all of europe and applies to all farm animals not just cows. To get a better idea of the costs time and effort involved money on and look has commissioned a study by xerox e. T. H. Technical university it showed them that animals which are taken by truck to be slaughtered have 6 times more hydrocortisone in their blood than those killed on their home ground. A clear sign of stress which also has an effect on me to quality. Also. Took advice from agronomist early committee of switzerlands f. I. B. L. Research institute called theyve decided to use a strap. He explains how the cow would be locked inside ready to be stunned but you know usually if a cow will go along willingly to be fixed in position a budget then stuns it with a bald can. Hold. So what will the customers think the organic meat and other most whole Farm Products can be purchased at the market or in the farms and shop. Its good that for now its the city councilmen things that i expect consumers to become more sensitive and Meat Consumption to decline so they are the direct vendors will increase their market share because they can plausibly show that their meat comes from ethically reared animals often can this help and that you dont seem to think to sleep in harlem. The e. T. H. Studies spoke with 200. 00 more school farm customers almost all of whom say they would welcome farm yard slaughtering and would pay more for the meat. Theyve already found a butcher willing to do farm yard slaughtering beef from cows that were born and die on the same farm is an expensive niche product but only a few years ago that was true of all organic products and now theyve become mainstream.
