nuclear deal was taking effect. the transfer came in january the same day iran released five jailed americans. the white house insists the payment was part of a case over seized iranian assets. donald trump calls it ransom, originally cooked up when clinton was secretary of state. >> was this money ransom for the folks released? >> no, it was not. it is against the policy of the united states to pay ransom for hostages. >> just a coincidence? >> margaret brennan has the story. >> reporter: the obama nearly $2 billion settlement with iran was unrelated to the prisoner release though they happened at the same time and also coincided with implementation of the landmark deal to freeze iran's nuclear program. when iran released four american prisoners in january, including journalist, jason rezain, and a former marine it was heralded as a diplomatic breakthrough. a coalition of congressmen met three of the americans in germany at the regional medical center. >> we paid a price in a major way to bring them home. >> reporter: the administration strongly denied paying any ransom. but according to new details first reported by "the wall street journal," $400 million in cash was flown into tehran on a cargo plane, around the same time that the americans were franks and currencies since any transaction with iran in dollars is illegal under u.s. law. senior u.s. officials claim the timing was coincidental. and just the first payment of a separate $1.7 billion settlement. at the time, president obama did not provide detail, but did say the money was meant to settle an outstanding legal dispute from before the 1979 islamic revolution. >> nuclear deal done, prisoners released, the time was right to resolve this dispute as well. >> reporter: the administration never consulted congress according to republican the white house of paying ransom to a state sponsor of terrorism. as details became public tuesday, there were instant reverberations on the campaign trail. republican vice presidential nominee mike pence. >> the administration air lifted $400 million in cash to iran. you know, we cannot have four more years accommodating and >> reporter: the olympic flame arrived in rio de janiero for friday's opening ceremonies of the 2016 summer games. security is tight. with soldiers and heavily armed police posted throughout the city. officials unveiled an operation center where agencies from 55 nations will monitor any terror threats. that's just part of the massive expense of the games. ben tracy has more on that from olympic park. >> reporter: hosting the olympics is typically a pretty great advertisement for the host city. but a recent poll found that 63% of brazilians think hosting the games here is actually doing more harm than good. >> rio de janiero. >> reporter: when rio won the right to host the olympics in 2009, a throng of brazilians were bouncing on the beach. it was their chance to show the world that brazil had arrived. but then, the worst recession in 25 years hit. and unemployment shot up alongside billions of dollars >> it's beautiful. this is home. >> reporter: felipe piva lives in one of rio's poor neighborhoods known as favelas. all this money spent on olympics is anything getting better for you or people that live in the favelas. >> no. the investment. >> the cost estimate is $12 billion. billion. at the same time, rio has cut spending on health care and education. the police have gone unpaid for weeks at a time. and 20% of the population here lives in favelas. >> hosting the olympics is just a terrible idea. >> reporter: andrew rose is an economist at uc berkeley. he says nearly every olympics is grossly over budget and leaves the host city with billions in debt. deal for these cities, why do so many cities seem to want to do this. >> most of the time the people who are in charge of bidding and getting the olympics are not around when the bill comes to pay for them. the olympics entails building a large number of facilities that are essentially never used again. >> reporter: the list is legendary. empty and rotting olympic facilities span the globe. the only thing swimming in the aquatic center in athens are frogs. beijing's rogue and kayaking course is bone dry. its famed birds nest stadium used most often as a nearly half billion dollar track for tourists on segues. the sochi winter games were russia's show of force. an estimated $55 billion made it the most expensive games ever. and made cost a big concern for future hosts. 11 cities bid on the 2004 summer olympics. but just five offered to host the 2020 games. only two cities wanted the 2022 winter olympics. almaty kazakhstan, and beijing. both with major human rights issues. committee has reformed the bid process encouraging more reuse and renovation of facilities versus insisting on brand new stadiums. rio is touting so-called legacy projects. including a nearly $3 billion subway extension and modernized airport. but promises to clean up rio's notoriously polluted water never happened. in a city that is already broke, many worry the shiny new olympic park will go dark after being used for just 17 days. pest control giant terminix agreed to pay nearly $90 million to a family sickened by pesticides. steve esmond became paralyzed after checking into a condo in the u.s. virgin island. >> reporter: the esmonds nightmare started last march when the family of four was the villa. the pesticide was methyl bromide, an odorless chemical banned for residential use in 1984. terminix was fumigating the property below the esmonds, vacationing on the island of st. john. 16 months later, steven esmond is paralyzed unable to speak, battling tremors. his wife theresa, who suffered seizures improved and looking after their sons who can barely move. >> highly acutely toxic. at low levels it has chronic effects. >> jay feldmand, director of beyond pesticides. >> just because epa slapped a label on a product and told the pest control industry, you shall not use this in residences. doesn't mean that the law will be followed. >> reporter: court documents show terminix knowingly used methyl bromide. and admitted to spraying the locations including residential villas in saint croix and also pay $10 million in criminal fines. why am i so devastatingly handsome, i'm in a fragrance...

of npr has that story. >> reporter: when nature grows savage and angry, americans gete be a problem. >> generally, after a disaster, people with loving intentions donate things that cannot be used in a disaster response. and in fact may actually be harmful. and they have no idea that they're doing it. >> reporter: director of the center for international she spent more than a decade trying to tell well-meaning people to think before they give. hurricane mitch, honduras, 1998. more than 11,000 people died. more than a million and a half were left homeless. and juanita rilling got a wake-up call. >> got a call from one of our logistics experts said a plane full of supplies could not land because there was clothing on the runway. in boxes and bales, takes up yards of space it can't be moved. well, whose clothing is it, what is it? well i dent know whose it is. there is a high-heeled shoe, one, and bale of winter coats. i thought winter coats it is summer in honduras. >> reporter: humanitarian workers call the crush of useless, often incomprehensible contributions the second disaster. >> reporter: the indian ocean tsunami, 2004, a beach in indonesia, piled with used there is no time for disaster workers to sort and clean old clothes, so the contributions just sit and rot. >> so this -- very quickly went toxic. and had to be destroyed. local officials poured gasoline on it and set it on fire. and then it was out to sea. people have donated prom gowns and wigs and tiger costumes and pumpkins and frostbite cream to rwanda. sending bottled of water to devastated people seems crazy. but she points out. >> this water it is 100,000 liters will provide drinking water for 40,000 people for one day. this amount of water to send from the united states, say, to west africa, and people did this, cost about $300,000. but relief organizations, with portable water purification for about $300. >> reporter: then there were warm-hearted american women who wanted to send breast milk to nursing mothers in haiti after the 2010 earthquake. >> it sounds wonderful. in the midst of a crisis actually one of the most challenging things. rebecca gustafson, humanitarian aid expert worked on the ground after many disasters. >> breast milk doesn't stay fresh very long. the challenge is, what happens if y d who then gets sick? >> caller indicating thinks there is some one shooting in the building. >> reporter: december 2012, newtown, connecticut, a gunman killed 20 children and six adults at sandy hook elementary school. when did stuff start arriving? >> uh, almost instantaneously. >> reporter: chris kelsey worked for newtown at the time. hold all of the teddy bears. was there a need for teddy bears? >> i think it was a nice gesture. there was a need to do something for the kids. a need to make people feel better. i think the wave of stuff was >> reporter: how many teddy bears? >> i think 67,000. >> reporter: 67,000 teddy bears. >> all thousands of boxes of school supplies. thousands of boxes of toys, bicycles, sleds, clothes. >> reporter: newtown had been struck by a mass murder, not a tsunami. >> i think a lot of the stuff into the warehouse was more for the people who sent it than it was for the people who in >> reporter: every child in newtown got a few bears. the rest had to be sent away, along with the bikes and blankets. there are times when giving things works. as many as 50 million people along the east coast are in the path of this hurricane. more than 650,000 homes were destroyed or damaged in hurricane sandy in 2012. thousands of people lost everything. >> we were able to respond in a way that the big bureaucratic agencies can't. >> reporter: tammy shapiro is one of the organizers of occupy sandy grew out of the occupy wall street movement. when the hurricane struck they had a network of activists connected and waiting. >> very quickly, we just stopped taking clothes. >> a relief supply registry, using a wedding registry. >> we put the items we needed donated on that registry. and then, people who wanted to donate could buy the items that were needed. a lot of what we had on the they needed -- flash lights. >> reporter: how transportable is your experience here following hurricane sandy? >> for me the network is key. who has the knowledge? where are spaces that goods can live if there is a disaster? who is really well connected on their blocks. >> this was taken in port-au-prince in haiti. >> the album of disaster images shows shot after shot of good intentions, just spoiling in warehouses. or rotting on the land this is heartbreaking. >> it is heartbreaking. it is heartbreaking for the donor. it is heartbreaking for the relief organizations. and heartbreaking for survivors. this is why cash donations are so much more effective. they buy what people need when they need it. and cash donations enable relief organizations to purchase supplies locally which ensures they're fresh and familiar to quickly. and those local purchases support the local merchants which strengthens the local economy for the long run. >> reporter: disaster response worker, rebecca gustafson. >> most people want to donate something that is theirs. and money some times doesn't feel personal enough for people. they don't feel like enough of their heart and soul is in that donation. that check that they would send. the reality is, it is one of the most compassionate things people ca a reason. it dries much better than detergent alone. sorry dishwasher. finish? jet-dry?. for drier, shinier

system. isle royale in the middle of lake superior. >> isle royale national park is so remote the only way in is by sea plane or boat. there are no grands in this tranquil setting, no grand tetons or grand canyon. what there is, an unparalleled, unplugged peacefulness. no internet. no cell phones. and few people. on average, isle royale national park gets 17,000 visitors a year. that's less than yellowstone seesen a day. forgive me, superintendent, in the national park system, it's not one of the biggest names. phyllis green, the park's to return. so this is one of the place you came as a child? >> yeah, used to make a family trip down here. take a chance to go up into the lighthouse. and look out over the surrounding area. >> reporter: growing up, suzanna ausmus spent summers here. her dad was a ranger. later returned and met her husband mike also a ranger. do i understand that your first date he didn't take you to see a movie took you to see a moose. >> yep, followed him down

the rest of societien a lot of ways. it is one of the places that people just get in their blood. and they feel a deep connection to this place. they're preparing to return to isle royale, this time with the kids. last summer they visited one of the big name national parks. so last year, you want to the rocky mountain national park. and you are saying, what we really want to go is back to isle

to reach the island crossing an ice bridge. now the lake water is warmer and ice is rare. as the wolves die off, he warns the moose population is exploding. >> the moose population is like a freight train. once it gets going, it doesn't >> reporter: moose feed on trees, he warns they threaten the forest. >> it is very clear the right thing to do is restore wolf and as promptly as possible. >> reporter: why not bring in more wolves? >> the question is when and where can the park service save species and for what purposes as climate change really rolls out nationally? >> reporter: isle royale has gone through changes before. in the 1800s, fishing families made the island their home. pulling white fish and trout from lake superior to be sold in cities as far away as chicago. >> reporter: visitors willing to dive can also see reminders of the past under the water. dozens of shipwrecks ring the park. century old victims of isle royale's rocky shoals and frequent fog. >> descending in the dark, you come across this link to the past. it's a very surreal magical type of environment. >> the average visit to most national parks is 3 to 4 hours. at isle royale, three to four days. but that isolation is not for everybody. >> we have had some employees come out and not last 24 hours the we have had some visitors not last 24 hours. >> reporter: among the treasures of
