But where does isis produce such deadly bombs . We travel to fallujah, 60 kilometers from the capital. After controlling the city for two years, the militants were driven out by the iraqi army at the end of june. Captain jasem commands a special unit of the iraqi army that specializes in explosives. All the bombs were produced in residential buildings. The terrorists used these locations to avoid u. S. Air strikes. The manufacture of mortars, grenades, car bombs, and rockets here in fallujah had an almost industrial character. The bombmakers were highly specialized. One group focused on producing detonators, with hundreds assembled here, ready for use. Such simple material, but hugely effective. The captain explains how the boobytrap works. Jasem mohammed mater theres a battery inside the fuse. Just a a bit of pressurerirings the metal ststrip into contact with the screws. The electrical current runs through, and the bomb explodes. Rereporter the remains of isis weapons arsenals are found throughout fallujah. And they are not old munitions like kalashnikovs, but modern precisionweapons. Isis has many specialists working on their publicity, administration, logistics, vehicles, and scouting out potential targets. General l abdel wahhab alsaidi they supplieied all of iraq from here. All of the terror attacks were carried out with explosives from fallujah. All the vehicles loaded with explosives were also from here. Reporter hundreds of explosive devices were produced here every day, often made with phosphate. To drastically increase the number of casualties, bombmakers s added metal fragments to the explosives, increasing their fatal radius. The armys antiterror experts have found 50 weapons workshops in the city so far. And they believe there are more. Our guide tells us that fallujah was the headquarters of the iraqi terror machine. We leave the former isis headquarters of fallujah and return to baghdad. A memorial for the victims now stands in karada, at the site of the explosion. Amar aldarraji shows his brotherinlaw the devastating impact of the detonation. The alleif department store, once very popular and crowded, is now in ruins.

H host venenezuela hasas moren oil l reserves t than any y othr country in the world. But its econonomys dependence n the resource has bececome a real problem.

More and more people are taking to the s streets in prototest, y of them ststill mourningng the s of their late socialist president. Reporter for as long as he can remember, the people here have called him che. Its no wonder. Humberto lopez reveres che guevara. He was also a supporter of venezuelas late president , hugo chavez. Humberto lopez the name chavez gives me goose bumps, and i dont believe in god. Chavez took over the banner from che. As a revolutionary, he fought against the injustice facing our people. Venezuela needs a realist like him, not communists like the ones who are currently ruling the country. Reporter critics say president Nicolas Maduro is letting his people starve. Almost everyone is affected by the crisis, not only those in the poorer areas. Marta hernandez is disappointed. She is desperate. She can no longer feed all 13 members of her family, and her daughter died just a few months ago. Marta hernandez look at my fridge. What do you see . Water and light. Today again, i have nothing. In the cupboard nothing. Now i also have to take care of my daughters young children. Im not blaming her it was gods will. But now im desperate. She died from a brain hemorrhage just a day after standing in the sun for hours, in line at the supermarket. Humberto lopez mr. President , for heavens sake you must see that you can no longer provide for your people, and neither can the opposition. Both of you, you must face the fact that children are dying for lack of food and medicine. Reporter but other venezuelans who unconditionally supported hugo chavez remain loyal to his successor, Nicolas Maduro even though hes clearly struggling in his job as president. Although chavez didnt bring prosperity, he gave many people a sense that they had an important contribution to make. Jerusalen gomez does her job of collecting names with pride. The governing socialist party has begun to intercept and distribute food. Anyone on her list can go to a local address and get some. But opposition supporters probably wont be getting one of these chickens to take home. Jerusalen gomez our door is open to anyone who comes in peace and supports the good intentions of our commander, so so that he may achieve something in support of our cause. Thats the truth. Reporter for gomez, supporting the socialist ideals of Commandante Chavez and president maduro offers plenty of perks. Thats true even though the new president has helped tip the country into a deep economic crisis. Jerusalen has computers, a couple of televisions. And believe it or not, four refrigerators two of them still in their original packaging. The others, wellstocked. Jerusalen gomez unfortunately i cant show you any chickens. Ill get them later. But we dont want for anything. We have milk, flour, and rice. Humberto lopez i promise you, the Party Officials have no problem filling their refrigerators. Its the corruption thats destroying our revolution, our country, our treasury. And in the end, theyll all end up eating each other. Reporter venezuelan politicians have let the Public Health system deteriorate. We bring a hidden camera into this emergency ward at a state hospital. The government doesnt want images like these to get out. The doctors here can offer little more than a bandage. The situation at the Childrens Cancer ward is critical. Doctors can provide almost no treatment and are watching helplessly as their young patients die. We speak with some of the children and their parents, who are desperate for help. A boy in the next room died yesterday. Theres s no chemotherapy anymo. Its so hard. So hard. My little one is fighting. But her blood values must improve. But how, when theres no medicine . Reporter fiorela is seven and has leukemia. Her parents are both teachers. At first, they were able to gett medicine from abroad. But now, they have run out of money. A Security Guard discovers us and throws us out. One of the doctors tells us to come back later after the guards go home. A few hours later, he risks his job by leading us to the hospitals basement and pathology station. The cooling system in the morgue isnt working, but thats the least of his worries. Doctor we rely on these machines to diagnose if a tumor is benign or not. We need them to be able to diagnose cancer. But theyre broken. The authorities know about the situation, but they dont even bother replying to our questions anymore. Reporter people who ask too many questions or criticize whats going on are often threatened. Just like Humberto Lopez, who has long been one of the biggest supporters of the socialist ideal l in venezuela. Humberto lopez in my own neighborhood, people who were my friends shot at me. They hit my car. They wanted to silence me, but i will continue. Im not the president , i can tell the truth. Reporter Humberto Lopez believes hugo chavez would be outraged. He says the current government is betraying his legacy. Chavez dream of a modern socialist state is on the verge of collapse.

Host now on to our global ideas series, in which we meet people dedicated to protecting our planets plant and animal species. This week, we head to senegal, where nearly 80 of the population is dependent on agriculture. Many families there survive by working in the peanut business and for generations have grown the crop almost exclusively. In the area around meckhe in the northwest of the country, thats now causing major problems. Reporter Ibrahima Seck is an agricultural expert and a visionary. He spends a great deal of his time in meckhe, a town in senegal. Hes working to win people over to sustaininable farmingng. Much of that work involves peanuts. Theyre a traditional crop here in senegal. Ibrahima seck peanut farming was introduced by france when senegal was still a colony. Peanuts were almost the only crop in the e entire region. The impact of that was enormous. Reporter that was more than 100 years ago. Even today, around half f of l farmland in n senegal is u usedo grow peanuts if they grow at all, t that is. A century of monoculture has damaged the soil. The e effects of soil erosion, loss of nutrients, and desertification are visible everywhere. Local farmers say the soil is almost entirely depleted. Plants can hardly take root anymore. Ibrahima seck peanut monoculture led to extreme soil degradation. A loss of biodiversity means a loss of natural resources. The soil, the water, trees, plant biomass its all gone. Reporter the peanut harvest has suffered as a result. Thats a major problem for people here in meckhe and all of senegal. Peanuts are one of the countrys main sources of export income but harvests have dwindled. This warehouse is where local farmrmers store their harvest. Their farms extend over vast areas, but their harvests are meager by comparison. Many farmemers earn onlyly aroud 200 euros a year. Thats whwhy many locals have bn turning to other crops, like cassava. But even that cant assure their livelihood over the longterm. Ibrahima seck thats the reason why young people dont want to stay here. When theyre old enough, r ready to earn a living, they leave the villages. First, they go to o the city. And then often, they continue onward to europe o or the u. S. S quite often, what happens is terrible. The young people are so desperate, so lacking in hope, that they get in boats, small boats, simple ones, and try to cross the atlantic in them. Reporter many of the farmers who remained in meckhe have joined together to form a cooperative, which runs a small Oil Production business. The peanuts are shelled and peeled, and then put through the press several times. The coop members use the oil themselves and sell the extra at local markets. The days of ample harvests are long gone. But even a small increase in yields would make a difference. Ibrahima seck believes the only way to make that happen is to switch to Sustainable Farming, without chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Ibrahima seck we have to work with nature instead of trying to dominate it. We need ethically Sustainable Farming methods. That means ecological and organic farming methods. Thats the future of farming, not just in senegal but around the world. Reporter for many in senegal, organic farming is still an unfamiliar concept. But Ibrahima Seck is committed to making it a reality. Host millions of people are in poor physical shape because they dont eat a healthy diet and get enough exercise. In 2014, over 10 of men worldwide were overweight and about 15 of women. The World Health Organization recommends at least 2. 5 hours of physical activity a week. Studies say those who do this outlive their more sedentary peers by an average of almost 3. 5 years. Reporter theyre not exactly the youngest women in the world but they want to stay in shape. I am meeting alita seitisho. She shows me her favorite exercise stations. Alita is 59 years old and one of the youngest here. Do i have to go slow or fast . No, i like it slowly. Reporter she tells us she likes the leg press. The women come here every evening after work. Many are still wearing their work clothes. They have housekeeping jobs in the neighborhood and cant afford to go to a normal commercial gym. Alita seitisho i can turn like i want. I can turn backwards, rightwards. Nothing can happen to me, the way i feel. Before, i could not bend like this. Reporter another sporty grandma is virginia modise. Shes 75 and the captain of this soccer team in pretoria. Im refereeing their game today, and ive got plenty to do. Theyre pretty rough with each other. Theyre between 60 and 78 years old and have sought out a pretty challenging game to keep fit. But its about more than just that. Virginia modise wewe thought, ok, soccer has been played by men all along. So we said to ourselves lets just make a muck and play football. And thats just how it started. Reporter trainer ruth moromengs Sport Program is strict. Even captain virginia has to obey. With this exercise, we are mostly working our joints. But we also run, which is good for our legs. Reporter virginia thought up the next exercise using rugby balls. As an exception, the women are allowed to use their hands. The team trains three times a week. There is even a grandmas Soccer League here in pretoria. Ruths team is currently third out of the leagues six teams. Some might say the team is ridiculous, but the women dont care. They know that diabetes and obesity are a major problem in south africa. People here love to eat. But unfortunately, it tends to be unhealthy food. After the training, the women usually go to virginias house. Today, she invites me along because she wants to show me her vegetable garden. She started it 10 years ago after suffering a minor heart attack. She decided to grow healthy food. Virginia modise weve got to do them both. Healthy food and exercise and sports they go together. Theyre just like a horse and a chariot. They go together. Reporter and since shes had her garden and been eating healthily, virirginia says she s been able to keep her weight and Blood Pressure under control. Todays meal vegetable soup. Alita i cant reporter perhaps alita should have eaten a bit more vegetable soup. Even with healthy food, the exercise is hard. Some machines here are tough, even if the only weight the women are lifting is their own. Alita and her friends will come here again tomorrow because it keeps them fit, and its fun host and thats all from global 3000.
