Welcome to global Three Thousand traditionally indias reika people live with and from camels today theyre having to be a bit more creative to. Learning via smartphone we made a young man in indonesia whose bright idea is bringing education to millions but first we go to Hell On Earth a scrapyard in ghana it might well be hellish but for those who work here its
essential. Smartphones washing machines tvs and conditioners those who can afford them rarely choose to go without and indeed for a few years at least they can make our lives easier. But then. This year alone forty eight Million Tonnes of electrical waste will be produced worldwide that sounds like a lot. In fact its Four Thousand Eight Hundred times the weight of the eiffel tower in just one year. And what happens to all these old broken machines well a significant proportion gets shipped to west africa just scrap yards in countries like gum or. Just waste scrap. Situated on the outside. Its of ghanas Capital Accra its often
being called Hell On Earth. It is toxic filthy and it stinks. Every day tons of discarded electrical appliances cars and scrap metal end up here much of it from you. Everything is dismantled and are the broken down into its Raw Materials well processed on the spot. But just cocoa has a big job to do hes making a mold out of sand. Then hell melt down an old engine to pour into it to form a cooking pot. It takes time for the aluminum to melt joseph cocos happy with his work here. And i mean i can get the goods here any time i need them. If i see what i want and i just run out and buy up and get to work by doing that. So that makes the work very easy for me here.

Anything that can be reused is repaired aggregate jeezy who came from nigeria specializes in laptops and performs wonders with them.

work. Very proud. And why everyone here is working hard they dont go playing or joking. Just kowtows looking for moral materials for his pops one of his supply is has just received a fresh delivery of old engines. He knows that much of this waste dumps from europe but says he isnt all the. Countries that you see other countries that are poor and its not because god ignores them or because he hasnt given them the same amount its about deciding what we want to have tomorrow or what were planning for our future life we have enough it depends on how we use it how we plan for our future today. The scruff is so high that kilo engines are more expensive than aluminum made of soda cans joseph says theyre much
better suited to making cooking pots. Precious little here goes to waste an old coat is now a roof. Cab of a truck is being used as a break room. This Exercise Equipment is being used to exercise. At the end of the Workday Joseph Heads home he passes by the vendors who also sell his parts. Like most of the people in this part of our hes originally from the countrys north its a region thats been badly hit by drought and few people have work. Joseph didnt either so he and his wife moved to accra. His neighbors in the slum showed him out to make cooking pots out of scrap metal. Now he and his family own their own home

For the uses its also a Cost Effective mode of Learning Students can call on One Hundred Fifty Thousand indonesian teachers using the app one on one instruction costs more the teachers are highly motivated in part because the students also evaluate them.

Per capita Meat Consumption has quadrupled to forty two kilos a year and milk products are in demand to the chinese now spend twice as much on your good as they did a few years ago. And one brand is proving it specially popular it comes from vogue area. Ghana and our neighbors there from a village in bulgaria called munch last thing. Together with other locals theyre taking part in
a chinese language class. For bulgarians its a hard language to learn. Its pretty complicated but id really like to learn some phrases that i can impress the chinese visitors with. The letter im very interested in Chinese Culture and the logic behind the syllables in the chinese written character speak. Chinese visitors. In the road oh please a Mountain Range close to the greek border these days there are signs scattered about the village in chinese so whats going on.

the oceans. The Drinking Yogurt made with a strain of lactobacillus. Is now sold in almost every major supermarket in china and has become a byword for healthy living. I really like this brand of yogurt it comes from a place where. Our packaging says it makes you live longer. Than is a made for. It. Back in. Dairy farmer. Can remember the first time he was visited by a delegation from china eight years ago they made careful note of how he made yogurt and quizzed him on the secrets of the bulgarian recipe. File
its a very simple formula on the one hand us cattle graze on these lovely meadows and also we have a very special breed of cattle they produce less milk but its very high quality and has a higher fat content. Demonstrates his traditional Yogurt Making Process he fills glasses with milk thats been heated to forty five degrees celsius then cooled then he adds the lactobacillus. The Starter Culture comes from an existing. So the bacteria can reproduce indefinitely its added to a new batch of milk which is then left to stand for up to three hours. Thats also how the chinese make their yogurt with a Starter Culture from. The brand has now become so popular in china that its boosted tourism to the region.

There is now even an annual chinese Bulgarian Yogurt Festival around Five Thousand visitors from china. Naming. Like many here is learning chinese so that she too can benefit from the bin in tourism its. The. Stage.

And now from the same milk rather to an indian camel milk this weekend global ideas we visit them right here rely on camels to make a living but thats becoming increasingly challenging. On travel to the Party District of the state to buy just on to find out more she spent several days with camel herd as befriended their animals turns decided along the way that their milk his pretty tasty. Herb the right for people have been hurting camels here and registered on for centuries reich a tradition holds that lord shiva created that cost specifically so they could look
after camels but times have changed that traditional way of life is now under threat. Of. Mechanized farming has long been able to do much of the work that camels once did so that market value his drop sharply in the last thirty years have seen the camel population and registers on shrink dramatically. He. Says his father used to have twice as many camels as he does. But im one of them what appeared to traditions of being handed down for generations to me look to us but how can we uphold our traditions when we have no income when your own people have to leave for the cities to make a living my children go to school that costs me a lot every moment we can no longer make a living with our camels how we going to survive. On
a bread day. Is the cool whole left Song Isnt Ethnologist and veterinarian together with one thing right all she set up an organization that helps camel herd is sustain their livelihood its an Advocacy Group for reika and the camels and also raises awareness that the animals play a crucial role protecting the environment. In america why dont they fear theyre not hard grazing helps Treat Conservation in many ways more immigrant as a know a lot of trees can only germinate with the help of women are fine but you theyre cut. Its a natural cycle humans the camels the biotope and the production of quality foodstuffs for the canals so. Camels will be only animals that eat indian Globe Thistle these short spiky plants
are nightmare for famines without the camels the plant would proliferate all over the fields and choke the crops. Camels graze by breaking off a few branches chewing a few leaves and moving on its a Grazing Practice that encourages regeneration the camels need large browsing areas and can cover a ten kilometer of the day but changes to agriculture mean that postulate is in short supply. Had one thing rattle has been working with camel herd as for nearly three decades in the past and she kidani was a thriving. Lidge locals own some Three Thousand camels between oh. No not living up to that we dont look at it. I dont want it now many locals have since switched to buffalo herding its more profitable. Than this and theyre also going for and. Really bad condition of the. Situation if you like in next the next five years you
do cant see any on the board or anywhere because nobody wants. If camels disappeared from the roads of registers on Traditional Reika Culture could also disappear and with it the expertise in agro pastoral herding practices. Once a year bull coughs a soul that Camel Markets for centuries this has been right his main source of income they keep the cals for breeding.

Now every morning right head takes camel milk to a day where he founded three years ago by. Sons and gio. What. I was about to give up i sold my camels and then
the Organization Began selling camel milk so i got my herd back now im going to feed my family with what i am selling camel milk. If the organization to stop selling milk tomorrow.

Camels have
a very diet eating thirty six different types of plants known for their Medicinal Properties so their milk is believed to have many health benefits. But for now the Camel Karisma Micro Dairy Still Isnt Selling as much as it could its operating at just a third of its capacity it needs more buyers. Only relief until youre out of the moment we have only about six family supplying us but theres a huge amount of interest. We get calls every day from like asking if we can buy them.
