But 1st we consider the future of globalization past the kovac 19 pandemic force is a major everything. And unbridled quest for profit and untamed consumerism characterized much of the worlds economy. d that is until the coronavirus hits. See it is cinemas and bonus was shouted cities resembled ghost Towns National borders of a closed fleets of planes grounded travel as good as ceased millions around the world may see their livelihoods destroyed as usual people in poverty benefited the least from globalization of the hardest hit will the shock of the pandemic realigned priorities or will we pick up where we left off. These Old Fashioned globes in the berlin bookstore evoke a time before our planet was plunged into its Current Crisis a crisis that could well change our world in many ways. What might this mean for globalisation in cross continental cooperation. Weve asked for people for whom globalization and its discontents are major themes of their work globalization is not to blame for the virus you yours theres nothing like a good crisis to create opportunity for political change we can all see now that an economy that aims above all to maximize profit is not sustainable. The 3 main scenarios have been sketched out for what might now emerge in the 1st is the undoing of globalization in its present form. French president emmanuel mccaw says the cataclysm will change the nature of globalization it increased inequalities in developed countries and it was clear that this kind of globalization was reaching the end of its cycle it was undermining democracy so will this prove to be a major historical turning point similar to the fall of the berlin wall and the end of the cold war one possible response though is not with my call wants to see. Its for countries to seek safety in solitude and selfreliance in the process undoing international ties and trade boosting Domestic Industries to reduce reliance on Global Supply chains and just in Time Logistics and instituting large stores of key goods in preparation for the next crisis attack it is an International Network of activists who are critical of what they termed new liberal globalization they call for social ecological and democratic alternatives including fair trade rules and limits to free trade. That the disaster weve seen in the provision of protective facemasks goes to show that we need more local manufacturing and local Storage Facilities so that things are really available when we need them without that not even basic emergency Protection Measures are possible. Globalization is a political agenda that seeks to reduce international interdependencies its not anti capitalist but its anti free trade it resonates with the nationalism of say u. S. President donald trump and germanys far right if tea party. The future does not belong to us the future belongs to patriots the future belongs to sovereign and independent nations to peace here get it global you globalization as we know it has failed a new worldwide Economic System is emerging based on Sovereign National economic areas the state some observers say that is rubbish and that we will eventually get back to business as usual global trade will resume and thrive vast amounts of goods will once again be zipping around the world globalization they say has increased standards of living bringing hundreds of millions out of poverty it has also proved vastly profitable for some flying around the world will again become normal every day activity Global Communication is of great benefit to humanity so why unto any or all of that. Were going to see a surge in digitalization but were not going to see a surge in de globalization because we arent going to forego the cost advantages of globally distributed manufacturing and the Global Market there is no alternative. So in this scenario trade in travel will recover and thrive in compas in the globe and in any case decoupling simply cant were. In our day and age people talk a lot about decoupling but they talk about the end of globalization and its really a buzzword that has very little practical meaning the internet financial flows the way supply chains are constructed its very difficult to think of. A future where all of that is eliminated the horse to use the old american metaphor the horse is out of the bar. Market is out of National Control the National Economy is very substantially worse police control. Of expertise of labor something. The German Government for its part certainly does not think globalization is in its death throes. As well cancer leukemia is no going back from the globalization of the past 20 or 30 years its become part of our open economic and social order. Given the economic and financial cost of the crisis with debt level soaring with Environmental Protection be sacrificed in the struggle to revive economies in sociological terms the pressure to create prosperity will not diminish even though there are good ecological reasons to want to see it diminish. As for the 3rd scenario there is a lot of discussion right now about a new green deal. This does not represent a turn away from globalization. It is more a vision of how the world should choose to reorient itself particularly in the wake of the penn demick. d and create a Global Economy to benefit ordinary people. While protecting the environment and mitigating the climate crisis. d moment where things are in flux theres a lot of uncertainty anything could happen. That window will close you know in the next. 60 seconds to a year and then well be just back to wherever we land after that period. Is the pandemic making people stop and think about what is truly important in life. If so perhaps the world will prefer global and local solidarity to consumerism competition and career ism. And discovering that Society Social relations a social contract trust among people are the biggest assets in the fight against over the question when the dust settles is what people forget. Well some people may see the pandemic as a crisis to be resolved as quickly as possible so we can continue on our merry way as before others see it as an opportunity to rethink basic questions about the way we live and perhaps come up with something better. Cannabis is the worlds 2nd most popular drug after alcohol used by an estimated 200000000. 00 people every since study estimated the Global Market could be worth 350000000000. 00 a year that would include both the illegal and the illegal trade many countries have legalized Recreational Cannabis and its cultivation and substances from the plants are also being used in medicine to treat chronic pain in asd and in Cancer Therapies some research is a hopeful it could help treat 19. Many Cannabis Farmers are hoping this trend will continue including in the South African nation of the city. Farm a struggle to make a living here in the highlands of listeners who where the soil is largely infertile. But its here that industrial scale farms have set up a flourishing business in cannabis. The plant thrives here thanks to the pill mountain air and clean water. All staff at the medic ro company have to wear rubber gloves and protective clothing. This c. E. O. Under a bachmann says that is crucial if they are to produce a medicinally pure product. To date you have spent 24000000. 00 u. S. Dollars on this facility. We will be being fully in business when we expand our area. Its very this is a very capital intensive industry to do it right. You need a lot of capital. Cannabis has been grown here for centuries until now on small fields like this one. This smallholder farmers says we should call him clement he doesnt want to reveal his real name. Like his great grandfather before him he cultivates the conventional variety of the plant that makes you high and that remains illegal in the city. When i heard of plans to make cannabis growing illegal i thought great something everyone will profit from but no it looks like it will only benefit politicians and their friends and not the whole of society in a lawsuit to. Clement is disappointed he would also like to grow Medicinal Cannabis on his field but to do that he would need a license from the government which costs almost 11000. 00 a huge amount that he could never raise. So Big Companies with capital thrive legally well small holders continue to supply the black market. They both grow cannabis but the plants raised for medicinal purposes are of a different variety and contain only a minimal amount of the psycho active ingredients sought by drug users t. H. C. The licensed producers have to demonstrate that that is the case in lab tests. What they do want to see a lot of in their plants is kind of a dial all c. B. D. Its antiinflammatory and cramp relieving properties of what qualify the substance as a medicine. We talked with the countrys Health Minister he conceded that since cannabis farming was legalised 3 years ago local small holders have not been among those to profit. Sometimes they were numbers tend. To smoke. You are from the backyard you will speak you will feel that high its not a very its not a very Small Business its not his possession but these 3 so of course most of us. Would not have died myself to take it out. Clements says the government has failed people like him. That you know at this secret location he and 2 helpers pack up his marijuana in small bags for sale theyve been raided repeatedly but avoid arrest by bribing the police. Clement is tired of living this way and says he too could grow Medicinal Cannabis. But theres another problem the seeds. Our. The seeds come from overseas and theyre denying us access to them. Its a form of oppression. Under a bottom appreciates the frustration of small scale local farmers but says they dont have the means to become legitimate produces. He says how his factory makes medical Grade Cannabis Oil the equipment alone cost 4000000. 00 he says. At the same time but most keen to stress how industrial farms like his benefit listen to local investors hold more than 30 percent of medic wrote in accordance with government stipulations whats more the company is in the process of creating a total of 3 and a half 1000 jobs jobs for people like harvest and mammoth sillies or inches that you need to see me. I used to be unemployed i was stuck at home. But since i got the job here ive been able to send my kids to school and i know i ask loads and so. Thats its a well its. Inches are lives in a Hilltop Village her life is typical for a woman in rural a suit 2 jobs are few and far between here but and she says own situation has changed significantly since she began to work on the cannabis farm. And shes now learning english and math at a school set up by the company for its workers. That also makes it easier for entry is there to check her childrens homework this school is also funded by mary grow the covert 19 pandemic had not yet reached africa when we were in the city. But the government did then introduce a lockdown before easing restrictions on may the 5th. As many factor of medicinal products the cannabis farm is one of the few companies that were exempted from the lockdown but staff do now have to wear protective masks. As the border was closed we were able to return to the city so andre bought my sent us this video he took on his smartphone. In a skype interview he said people were becoming more Health Conscious in the face of covert 19 and demand for his cannabis oil was continuing to grow. He also told us he had offered the government his help in the fight against the virus weve made out by the book. But they have chosen to use it at their own tasting facility the thing is i dont think they want the government to control that in themselves. Clement continues to work during the lockdown delivering sacks of his crop to a drug dealer. To fulfill his dream of one day growing a distant cannabis and selling it to a Processing Plant he would need Financial Assistance from the government. And for a greenhouse for now its a dream that seems unlikely to country. Were always on the lookout for delicious snacks on latest discovery comes from the south pacific. In the Solomon Islands most food comes straight from the sea or the land the main way of getting to and from the smaller islands is by boat so even locally is essential that means lots of fresh fish coconuts. And here are live to me it also means my grove beans. They grow everywhere and they form the basis of a popular snack on the island. Thats what. Who is cooking up for her sisters home state business. Theyre there and i can. Show you. How it goes like man grow up being is that were bad on the board and then we go to the mob group and collected on the mob and after would be the big and they get whole.

She boys and for 10 minutes before its time to add the other ingredients they include coconut onions and chopped fish. After its cooked a bit longer on the stove the result is a rich soupy dish.

Sister hope this unique dish will attract travellers who are willing to leave the beaten truck to sample an authentic taste of the Solomon Islands. This Weekend Label ideas we look at one of the many horrible mess is we humans have created piles of plastic trash this time in southern argentina is one of several problems penguins that face as biologists and. 500 years ago Ferdinand Magellan was the 1st european to sail around the southern tip of south america. Its an icy climate here and also home to the magellanic penguins named after the spanish explorer. And. Down here to go to do some exploring herself shes a biologist from argentina Southern Center for scientific research. She and her team make regular trips to the remote colonies of penguins here 7 in total. Out iraq were on our way to c. E. O. Hamer island where the colony there has around 5000 pairs of magellanic penguins and 50 pairs of gentoo penguins we know bob or the colony has been around since the one 970. 00 s. But we only started observing it in the ninetys you know hey look no and since then its been growing there continuously and if. This season come today enabling the researchers to bring their equipment on land without any further problems. The penguins dont seem bothered by the visit is there are several species living here together on the odd and. Andrea ray has won an award for his insights into the impact of humans on the birds magellanic penguins dick then this burrows in the ground. This is where they lay their eggs and raise their young. But the birds very survival is influenced by human activity rising sea temperatures have changed marine food chains for the penguins it means hunting longer for food which in turn means leaving their young alone for longer and increasing their vulnerability to seagulls and other predators. Southern rock her penguins are among the species hardest hit by Climate Change but its very small types of prey such as larvae which are themselves most susceptible to changes in the temperature of the water. So the penguins derive less energy from their food. And that has a long term impact on the population. A lot of the glass. And tree a ray and her team are installing an automatic monitor. System for the penguins they fitted some of the birds with the special chip a sense a record a movement in order to track general activity across the colony penguins do look rather helpless on land at least but theyre excellent divers and swimming some penguins make it all the way to uruguay and brazil covering a distance of 4000 kilometer. Winds are guardians of the ocean theyre also a gauge of how healthy they were ecosystems are. Examining their food intake how far they swim to find that food and their reproductive rate and they build lists to see how these species which are dependent on the ocean are fairing. Penguins go on shore to mates and raise their young and extremely sensitive phase of their lives which is under threat from growing pollution the nesting holes are increasingly filled with Plastic Waste which mainly comes from the nearby city of. 90 percent of the nests contain Plastic Waste. As do the animals stomachs and fences. Currents and winds carry the plastic to places you might think were untouched by human activity. 4 years ago residents of teamed up to tackle the trash situation of loss on the entire city coastline. The initiative was launched by maya mariel it was a pulled by the pollution brought to this remote city by the wind and by sea currents. You see stray dogs tearing apart the garbage looking for food. Belongs in a landfill but a lot of it ends up on streets across the city and the birds come and pick away at the rest. The ticket im in. Now i thought out the most of what weve gotten used to burying the garbage. Sometimes when the snow arrives in winter the trash is just left on the beach. And when its no melts the trash and up in the city that ameena nothing a lot of. Bush ally is called the gate to the and take the half a 1000000 tourists who descend on terror del fuego every year pose a further threat to the largely untouched ecosystem. In 2500. 00 or a founded a Group Bringing together citizens initiatives and local to operate is. What they want to see especially management of the Tourism Sector says the groups coordinator sabrina kids money. And. I mean theres been a rise in tourism and i think were actually and the number of boats with tourists out of the sea or the canal. Yeah i want to but i think theres the improper behavior there are boats going to close to the islands and using loudspeakers in the vicinity of the animals and i think that thats in a silo in a sea the whole me i. Hope. Is putting all the tourism at one with nature tourism thats in harmony with nature is always welcome. Its one of the human activity is that can help the most to conserve the environment above all so that the populations the communities and the ecosystem remain as pristine as possible of the one big not so much but if they know. The penguins that would bring some welcome relief and the struggle for survival here in what is called the end of the world.
