On sort it in some countries in eastern and southern europe, this type of disposal is still widespread. Romania is ranked among the was worst Member States for waste recycling, a lot of garbage and recycle of material is thrown together before it even arrives at the landfill. This violates the standards of the european union, which has given money to romania for proper Waste Management. This includes the construction of a modern landfill in closing up welcome. But a reporter discovered that millions and e you funding has failed to clean up the problem. A romanian landfill site full of unsorted waste financed with money from the european union. This was supposed to be a modern, environmentally friendly waste down to replace the older illegal landfill site near the city of pollution. I forgot that had been an eyesore for decades. The new landfill opened after much delay, but not much seems to have improved. On sorted garbage is still dumped here. Nothing is recycled, harmful practice, fencing and legal in the you. We want to find out what went wrong here. In a residential area, we looked at the start of the waste chain. The 1st impression is there are different bins for different waste. Okay, you guys recycle your way. Sometimes sometimes this was sometimes he doesnt make sense because the same car is taking the garbage. So if it is not actually recycling, theres one called the phone to pick everything. And then it happens before our very eyes. The sign on the truck reads today we collect paper, but they also taking Everything Else from all the bins, the use this an isolated case or easy. Its a stomach. We need shown dakota is going to works in the Waste Industry is also inactive us and keeps track of what clues just waste collectors arent doing the. So whats happening now again are different types of is right . Yes, yes. I think they are mixing or, or theyll be yes. Unplugged romania risk cycles cost 14 percent of its municipal waste compared to the average of 49 percent of the moment blocks was yes, semis right now recycle some more expensive to collect the mixed waste they show were not made because theres no incentive to collect them separately for like they fit, bought out the width, shown dakota, shirley, and 3 other environmental activist. I watched drone footage of the new waste plant. The activists are concerned that the site is filling up faster than it should with on sorted waste, which is illegal in the elizabeth hills. This is not a moment or a mistake. This is a structure, as you can see from the area that these covered with non treated non sorted garbage. Most of them, what do you realize . They dont treat, dont sort just dump it there. Its, its so obvious. From 2014 to 2020 the you spent 318000000 euro, subsidizing Waste Management in romania, 40000000 inclusion alone. We want to speak with the people responsible for Waste Collection here. But neither the Waste Company nor the Romanian Ministry of european investments. Reply to our inquiry the local Waste Management association does however, tell us in writing the bill and post penalties if there are deficiencies. The District Council here is responsible for implementing the project. We met with the Spokes Person we observed that and precious did not being recycled and not collected separate and includes. And this is one of the main boards of european Waste Management stand. Thats so am i you as the 2 is county not concerned about this . Probably exist the boss there may be some isolated problems start to close it. I tell you as a citizen that its definitely not a systematic problem. When you shoot you at the time, no one appears willing to acknowledge the waste problem here. So we had to brussels to ask what the u commission, which financed much of remaining as a Waste Disposal system is doing about this, opened up the whole country. The commission does not manage projects. We do not follow each separate project. We have under equation policy, the previous peers, 1500000 projects on more than 1500000 projects funded by equation policy. And these are all managed by the number of states back in romania. No one seems to feel responsible. Much to the dismay of each one. So college as long as europe is happy with the d. S. And they are and they have been and they would be romania. Well have no problem in producing more. And i think we couldnt find out who is to blame for countless inclusion, but maybe thats the root of the problem in the tangle of european projects. Everyone wants a piece of the pie, but it seems no one wants to take full responsibility for the waste or from where the money is going. Or whats your needs concerning waste is a rethink, says alicia test see, and she can back up her words with actions. Her Family Business in the fashion powerhouse of italy is committed to recycling and she is not alone there in tuscany, around the city of title many take. So companies create new from old, with proud to quickly becoming the pairs of sustainable fashion. This used closing been could be in almost any european city, but no matter where its located, chances are the closing will end up in prod. So its only the one of those techs the recycling capital around 150. 00 of the 7000. 00 Text Companies here are involved. And recycling use close from germany, austria and switzerland and up at salvatore run ginos warehouse. She found that she could meet the visits where we separate. What comes in the media. We separate t shirts, pants, Childrens Clothing sweaters, and jackets. According to season on a winter or summer. Steve embedded off the resales, 2 thirds of the clothing, mostly to africa, illiterate as he who works next door takes the last the 3rd or finally business has been turning us close into yarn and fabric for 4 generations challenger at hi. Hows it going to be . Great in the material. Yeah, its all pretty good. One, great. And then the magic begins, the end, the discarded scraps will become new yarn and wo, its a complex process that starts here in the table and with solar eclipse, a goal is to restore the young to its original color. We separate the colors and then the machine tens, the racks into a time to find the power outage. And that way we would need to be original color without the chemical guys that are chemical ties are only one of the problems of todays textile industry. Worldwide. 20 percent of Water Pollution comes from dying on finishing fabrics. Thats another reason why recycling used clothing is so important. The material then goes to and washing plans, where its shredded and turns back into rule material. Company processes. The 25. 00 tons of fabric per day. The final product of these fluffy fibers, the material has been dried and now has the moisture content of the original fi button. Now its ready to be packaged. And so those funds the on the recycling process continues in a nearby factory. The fibers are turned into yarn and then fabric. Every european buys an average 26. 00 kilos of textiles per year. Most eventually ends up as landfill. For dietrie, its a terrible waste. Most of the 400 were trying to do us small part here. Of course, if the fashion industry follow down lead, we could accomplish that much more. Its hard to believe the 21 percent of all used clothing in the world is recycled, and 16 percent of that one percent is recycled here in pa to yes, some of the contribution here in protest textile district is important. A new chaise father, as president of gets leased textile recycling association, but he says were cycled fibrex cant be the only solution, not for simply a dollar g for data. But at the moment we cant satisfy the level industrial and consumer demand with 100 percent Recycled Materials event. No, that goes to my go to the gospel account. Okay. We have to do now is make it clear how important it is to move more and more in the direction of recycling. You know, mean thing, can we mean todd young dot it, they love it as soon as they, they need to go to that also means encouraging Young Designers like students from a Freshman Academy to use recycled tech styles from prato for the creations and central proud. So the roof start off is already selling recycle design or fashion around the world. Nicolo geoffrey, on his goal, is to bring together our, to his new methods, sustainable fashion. And the principles of a circular economy. With the a more general consent to people that were seeing that more and more people are interested in these issues and are willing to buy less clothing, but spend more on quality that in, in or let me use the opposite. Astonished compassion, which is what we have until just a few years ago that so that was all about low prices. Style in buying new clothes. More often. Something were looking to spend people home on comfortable people like nicolo. And alicia, they are showing, the sustainable fashion is more than just a dream for places like product. So all over the world can help make its a reality. A delia from latin america came to spain with a dream sending sufficient money back home to support her children. But her dream turned into a nightmare. She now works as an in turn, not in madrid, and turn as a workers who takes care of the household and live with their employers like, or pairs. Often they are without any papers such as a residence permit, which makes them even more vulnerable. The Spanish Government has introduced stricter laws bugs despite that. People like delia continue to be abused for 6 days a week, 16 hours a day daily is feeling to itself at work for us with a cell phone. In this apartment in madrid, spain she takes care of the household and looks up to the children. She sleeps here too, but the 57 year old doesnt want to show us hovering. Its the only piece of privacy so, you know, when i read the, they put me in a 2 by 3 me to basement room. Okay, hold on. I dont have a window, then. Its the meaning is one of the extent to have to live like this. Even though you take care of it, 1st thing in the apartment, look around the clock, so you do your best, but still end up in a situation like say that i see and, and as i see the feeling they called in town us because they live in the household, they usually from latin america or the philippines. They do the groceries mind the children take care of the elderly. Like here in the upscale neighborhoods of mentor, it is to give us so little feedback every saying that cook and cleaning everything wrong, cool. 24 hours a day. This cancel this 3rd and then finish may not be at this Domestic Workers association. Carlos here on is the chat person, but shes not about doing the cleaning. She too has worked as an antenna in the past. Now with the association, she supports the workers rights because many dont even get the designated minimum wage for their work. 1080. 00 euros a month, migrants for that residency, right . So often shamelessly exploited this lady told me this is more than slavery because they dont pay you the legal minimum and then your rights getting from hold on, just because you dont have papacy law. And then the, when you complain that the employee a physical im, why should i pay you buy the books when you dont even have paperless good step the way up a lot of look into a late c 20 populous dentist. Daily, often comes by the association. 17 years ago, she came to spain from paraguay to en money for her family. The biggest button is the separation from her children. The son was 10 at the time her daughter 15 because he doesnt have it in the, in the, almost to speak with him for awhile. I left my children in paraguay of new york. And now im here for other peoples children even which of course on the new ive missed a lot of things on my daughters wedding, the both of my full grandchildren, my fathers death full of the thing is that keep a family together assignment, thatd be total total that would allow media if ideally gets help from the association psychologist, anna camacho thinks the extreme living situation of the antennas is dangerous. They can be frustration and depression, even the loss of ones own identity. The last that on the data and to allow you helping you out the city, julia, the boundaries between your probably been and working life but you know, blood going through this saturday up there. So not see, we have one on monday to your privacy and personal development, but im determined, defiant mothers, both really low of the spanish authorities, one to end the precarious situation. Theyve imposed contracts with the minimum rest periods. And you decree now grants, Unemployment Benefits to Domestic Workers. But in reality, Domestic Work is hard to monitor. Family was the reason daily i left power of life to work as an intend, 17 years later around children are practically strangers to make an idea. I mean, i wouldnt do it again. How come will say i will find, stay in my country and somehow take care of my children. That was at least dont be with them for gas out today or i have no hope of winning back then. No fee. Daily a is still proud that her work has enabled, had children to get an education. But its being a high price to pay of more than 20 years ago parts ago did criminalize the consumption of all types of drugs in the coastal city of porto and other parts of the country. Its mainly those who deal in drugs who have to face legal consequences. Well, experts hailed a step as a role model for other countries. Porter residents like chris daniel silva, have a different view. Hes unhappy about how addicts are getting high in his neighborhood. Often with the police seemingly powerless, charlton foil discarded bits of syringes and large old evidence of drug use in the streets and pumps of points. Christiano silver sees it every day. He lives in portugal, 2nd largest city, and a middle class neighborhood. Its also a hang out for the drug thats above and its disrespectful to the rest of the society or theyre using openly in the street. If its come. Yeah. If you dont like it, you have to cross the street and you have my gloves. And then if you say its not ok, they get aggressive and thats on the part of my view. Linda political de criminalized old narcotics in 2001. No matter how dangerous anyone found in possession of less than 10 days supply. Now jessica and so fine, only dealers go to jail. Were on the road with police trade unionist who co maria, this is a drunk dealing area. Is a big way he is in the back there. Is there Meeting Point the its better to avoid it because they can get lost by putting together dealing is still prohibited. Most drunk trains a night behind closed doors. While outdoor consumption isnt allowed, it really has legal consequences. It really lucky escape. Planes were no longer allowed to around consumers, and the problem is that we come across more and more, which way seems like this was not the police have had their hands tie this quiz. They never used to be seen as i saw to a few of those who can call to offer therapy and drug centers like this one was supposed to drones uses off the streets. But this is the only one in on of paul to show outcomes a daily to smoke, a comp time of heroin and cocaine under supervision of the over 2 months. So were human beings will 670. 00 to dictate to drug. So we need a lot of houses well examine. We do a psychologist, deanna, castro is proud of particles drunk law. She says its a way to entice those effected out at the shadows. After all, there are few a drunk depths now. Windows key and this is also no cleaning or the saddle when drug use is a crime. Whos to attic . Stay hidden off the social radar . No, no. They dont accept treatment offers. Simply because theyre viewed as criminals. Some quasi value, excuse me, not as people in need of health and that can assist you from that for you this out. But thats clearly a lack of treatment surfaces. Critics fee, if a public safety. Its an untenable state of affairs for patricio rep as old cheese the district man over amount to want to point out his problem neighborhoods sold the meals on either side. This feeling of fear that the process of turning around and looking to see if someone will be find you toy, see them. Its unacceptable for the 1st place. Yeah, we need more police as we see and more patrols on the street. The less who wish the police you and you know, also calling for the top emissions the. Were doing our job doing our rounds. Yes. Thatd be open, but if there are no consequences, its a good. I think we use the facility that takes the users and forces them to accept the treatment of i mean, so what facility with enough resources and professionals to care for the knowledge, whether or not to bring out an individual, often more than 20 years of liberal and drunk policies, it is time to act says residents, christiano, silver, caring for addicts is all very well, but not at the expense of protecting the population. Diesel. Uh, a couple of it all leads to a sense that they can do what they like with impunity. People, then its a pretty dangerous spiral. Yes. So scholars is less than the ability garza things settled down. Debating christiano is neighborhood after a big police operation. But some of the drug scene just moved to another part of town. Something that clearly doesnt solve portez problem. A single post on social media has the power to change lives. It happened to assess you and yeah, cause born with down syndrome and online post sparked a new wave of solidarity and brief new life into the cafe where he works. Its in the bulk them town of tools. Lab. The cafe is unique because it employs people with disabilities and they are devoted to their jobs. So when word spread, it was pasting closure. The community rallied, his job means everything to sasha shown you. Ok . He works almost every day at the clubs, me over search for dragons heart club, cafe and sasha. It has the heart of a fighter. He doesnt give up, even when the going gets tough. The file manager said it makes me so happy. Im full of joy. Lets say lima pony. I love working here and i always love it really, that i the more that it up i could work here 24 hours without to break stuff it to that. Mid up in a few that his colleagues for is costume of that you cant speak, but with definitely seconds that he even wanted to put a bed in the cafe so he could spend the night there. The 2 of them are fortunate. The cafe project is the only one of its kind in bosnia, almost as you can see in their faces and the faces of their families. But the cafe is become like a 2nd home for them cargo, the only because with me, what do you severely, parents say that theyve never been happier . I suppose that was one of the project was actually on the brink of failure. In the 1st few months, hardly any guests came. The cafe next door was full to the brim. But not so the dragons heart. Apart from edema offended genus. The writer has known such as since childhood. She visits him in the cafe almost every day. One saturday, a few weeks ago, she was the only guest, an old man took a photo of her. No, no, i didnt know mer took my picture. We were sitting there chatting schedule and he said he was going to post that the club was closing at the end of the month. He said that no problem. Yeah. I said, oh, come on, it doesnt have to come to that. And he said, we can survive this financially. Macintosh, a post them after post. Everything changed is a very special. This is 1st, the Regional Media reported on it. Then it went nationwide with him. So suddenly we were full from morning till night. Of course, if this would not be the 1st 23. 00 weeks, you couldnt get a table here for the rest is on a pro thats leveling on. Yes. So it was a miracle they say. Since then, the cafe has been doing great. The guests pile on the praise model im going to treat though, like coffee. Im telling you its one of the best caches we need today. Tidy, almost pedantic, became a cheese and the service is top class. Something was to go ahead and be circle me. Well, i was quite surprised at 1st. I didnt expect it, but it makes no difference. I think they even serve me and the others with a bit more respect and friendliness than youd see elsewhere. Similar projects are set to open in other locations. The dragons are cafe is just the beginning, but up promising one of the drugs of todays book as lawn year of thank you so much for watching.
