Very graphic. Not many in Jakarta can afford one of those houses. Not that long ago, this was jungle but now its gone. Deforestation is so so sad and destructive but the gov. appears not to care. Tuhan mmbrkti ini Dunia. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hi @Me Me, thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. Microplastics will be addressed in next week's episode in which we head to Malaysia to learn how to deal with microplastics in food. Stay tuned! 🙂
Air quality isn’t a new problem for Indonesia, of course.Jakarta’s air has been heavily polluted for years. Jakarta’s poor air quality is the result of the perfect storm of pollutants: numerous nearby coal-fired power plants, transport emissions, manufacturing, household emissions, construction, road dust, and open waste burning. All of this takes place on a daily basis in and around the Greater Jakarta region, affecting the lives of over 25 million people. as citizens, we have the right to a healthy environment, the right to breathe healthy air.
Very informative doc. Air pollution is a world-wide problem. It's very nice to know that there are people all around the world working for a better and healthier environment. Thank you sooo much! greetings from Italy
Thanks DW documentary team for your great work. As one of Jakarta citizen, I also concern with our conditions. Every morning, I can see the sky is not clear. Yes, too many transportation. Even MRT and Transjakarta (public bus) has been operating, but the numbers of online transportations and privates are still in high numbers. Many people still associates transportation ownership with the "social status" or pride. And also capitalism, the transportation manufacturers companies and governments did not do much to contribute this issue (they only mention as part of their CSR, but thats not enough). Raising citizens' awareness to offset their carbon footprints and donate some money won't be easy.
Air conditioners and driving around in cars is just ignoring the problem all together. I know most people who use them to escape air pollution don't care enough about the implications of these choices. Plant more trees and protect green cover and live sustainably. Every small effort matters.
Please make a documentary on BHOPAL GAS TRAGEDY 🙏: The worst industrial disaster. I guess , just like Chernobyl's documentary it would take episodes to complete.
Vietnam has terrible air pollution. Anyone wanting to take on the problem of air pollution can look to Electric (instead of petroleum) scooters. These will make a huge change in those kind of cities.
In Hanoi especially, the motorbikes are only a part of the problem, and not even the biggest one. All those emissions from all the factories around Hanoi, and all the burning of trash everywhere, especially by the unaware, uneducated civilians, as well as dust from constant construction everywhere, are a bigger problem. Only moving to electric scooters won't solve the problem, especially with the millions of cars clogging the streets of Hanoi since the last 5 years or so, with ever increasing numbers.
They live in Jakarta. I live in Hanoi. In comparison to Hanoi, Jakarta is a clean city. I have 3 air purifiers running at home 24/7, and even that is not enough sometimes. Every time we have to go out it's with a mask. I have to send my daughter of 21 months old to kindergarten and I cannot find not even one that cares about the air-pollution. One has air-purifiers in every room, but when I came to inspect it, the windows were wide open, and the pollution inside was the same like outside that day 100 PM2.5 (yes, I have a machine to measure it. I became that paranoid). There is no solution to this grave problem, but to escape this miserable city, but I work here. How do I make a living outside? I have no choice. My daughter's health and my whole family, as wel as mine, including my mental health, the stress of not being able to do any outdoor activity, especially sports, really gets to me. And the corrupt government in VN does NOTHING to fight the situation.
For profit investors and greedy corporations do not care if you can't breathe. Stop consuming their products and reuse, repurpose and recycle anyplace possible.
I was born in a city with almost 2 million people and with only coal energy. Now I live in a city with 200 thousands residents, and there is not so many cars here. I FEEL THE DIFFERENCE!
@ WOW you have no idea how a fusion reactor works... Tell me more, what we can do with this technology...
3 роки тому
@@ickebins6948 Really, so I need your explanation. My thought is that in common there exist two different solutions how to get energy. Firstly by Nuclear Fission where atom is split into two atoms and secondly by Nuclear Fusion where two atoms are combined to form different atom. So by second reaction which is mostly used in stars and supernovas are created helium from hydrogen and all matter except dark matter. So my idea is that creation of new atoms from another two by nuclear fusion :) (but it could not be energetically effective)
The government's around the world create big business from air pollution especially patients for doctors nurses and hospitals to keep them busy it's big business .
They chose deforestation, now they should enjoy the price they paying for the choices they made...they could have found other ways to earn livelihood..there is always better options and healthier to healthiest options to choose from to earn livelihood.. Palm trees plantation for palm oil.. hectares n hectares of land from small landlord lands to forest were used and taken for growing only palm trees.. they shouldn't complain.. they have no right to complain for what they have chosen.. they did that to themselves, now face it and bear it.. and teach ur children how to pay the price for ur choices... And keep increasing population, and create more concrete jungles.. this people and the people all around the world seriously doesn't have any common sense.. what over population does..
Who us they. This child and mother didn't chose anything. The corrupt government chose for them, and they are the ones reaping all the benefits, while leaving the general population to die and suffer
I feel pity to him especially for all children! Air pollution should have been taken into action immediately and found the solution to all human being ! City life is great but air pollution makes me dislike it ! Anyone knows which country the video taken ?
For sure we just live for short periods of time but our next generation comes so the effects of air pollution cause their whole life if we don’t take if for granted seriously in the present moments!
These people can do fucking anything !!!! You can always create everything you set your minds to... you have the whole planete who orders your cheap gadgets🥴😬 AND PLEASE...... STOP MAKING POOR INNOCENT CHILDREN, who did not ask to be in your polluted world 😩😢😔 You can ABSOLUTLY undo this! The money or childrens lives!
Do they have no regulations on big corporations that pollute, or on vehicles and smog? Or is this a case of the "developed" world outsourcing our pollution to these unlucky nations somehow?
In corrupt countries, all you need to do is to pay corrupt government officials a big fat envelope under the table and you are good. No need for you to install expensive filters
Maybe not breeding like roaches would help? That pollution is caused by masses of people... as in *too many people per square meter*. Keep the kids safe?- don't have them in the first place.
A big contribution to pollution is living a western lifestyle. Cellphones, computers, plastics, owning a vehicle, the fashion industry ect. It takes a lot of natural resources to make these consumer goods. It also creates huge amounts of waste products. Would you be willing to change your lifestyle instead of blaming others for having kids?
Want successful videos? Have them in English majority of people listen to them WHILE DOING SOMETHING I am not even native English speaker going to skip this can't listen to it while making breakfasts.
Pollution issue not just in Indonesia but across the world have problem with pollution as well. Even in developed countries have pollution issue.
Takbeer
Even? You mean especially
You are right ! That is a global issue not just only a country! So we all in this universe must take it for granted!
I think in general the more developed (wealthy) a country is the less willing its citizens willing to trade economic growth for more pollution.

Very graphic.
Not many in Jakarta can afford one of those houses.

You should also do a similar series on how microplastics are slowly making humans infertile.

Hi Me, Me, I am one of the producers of the series. Get ready for the third episode! About microplastics in our food. ;-)
@@grithofmann1276 Very nice! I am reading a book on it right now and it should be scaring the world!
@@TomNook. What is the name of the book? I'm quite interested..
Vietnam is horrible for air pollution. So many I know want to get out. There’s a huge market for electric scooters if someone takes it on.

Came here to post that comment but you bet me to it 🙂 with electric current and everything same the same like lost OMG 😳

They are not a few their products get used in many things. Just look how many food industries use palm oil
I was born in a city with almost 2 million people and with only coal energy. Now I live in a city with 200 thousands residents, and there is not so many cars here. I FEEL THE DIFFERENCE!
Imagine living in the countryside.
@@dizzbo 2 as s6ess
Have to sell electric scooters. The small gas engines they put in those things are horrifically polluting.
solar powered !!!!!!!!!!
In future water and oxygen for sale...
Why in future? Now there exist emmission rights as trading instrument and water future contracts were started last year.
@Impersonal Immigrant Why not, when we have nuclear fusion reactor we could create every atom from hydrogen at the same time we are making energy. :)

In India, during second wave of covid we already witnessed that
I keep my kids safe from pollution by putting a plastic bag over their head.
Wowww I can see that you're a great parent!! Your kid is lucky!!
Won't they suffocate
0.00000001 second after seeing the the title, I know the video took place in Indonesia
Slowly but surely the world is going towards that dystopian movie "Z.P.G."
I agree to your concern!
The government's around the world create big business from air pollution especially patients for doctors nurses and hospitals to keep them busy it's big business .
you are right, Keith....but those who dare to say "NO!" and "stop" are too few.
Komposisi Malay, Indonesia, sawasdi Thailand, para pollucion climatik innovancia. SME,....respectively. Haik!
Ironic how the doctor is wearing an N95 mask and the mom and child are wearing a paper mask which doesn't filter out anything.
Why? Because the doctors is seeing hundereds of patientes everyday and he should be the one with the highest security in that scenario?
They chose deforestation, now they should enjoy the price they paying for the choices they made...they could have found other ways to earn livelihood..there is always better options and healthier to healthiest options to choose from to earn livelihood..

What’s worse air pollution or coronavirus? One is a real problem and the other is not.
what if we are kidless? no worries then?
I feel pity to him especially for all children! Air pollution should have been taken into action immediately and found the solution to all human being ! City life is great but air pollution makes me dislike it ! Anyone knows which country the video taken ?
Probably Indonesia
Human beings also have expired date on the earth...
For sure we just live for short periods of time but our next generation comes so the effects of air pollution cause their whole life if we don’t take if for granted seriously in the present moments!
Quote from George Carlin:
"Earth is fine, the people are fucked"
That’s sad 😢
IF JAKARTA IS FACING POLLUTION THINK ABOUT OTHER ASIAN COUNTRIES LIKE INDIA/PAKISTAN
It's only northern Indian cities that are polluted
India, what about the world's factory, China.
These people can do fucking anything !!!! You can always create everything you set your minds to... you have the whole planete who orders your cheap gadgets🥴😬
AND PLEASE...... STOP MAKING POOR INNOCENT CHILDREN, who did not ask to be in your polluted world 😩😢😔
You can ABSOLUTLY undo this! The money or childrens lives!
That intro reminds me of the twitches movie
Delhi kids in few years:
it wasnt that bad actually. i just dont go out 🤣
You get just as much airborne pollution indoors, if not more! Plastics, chemicals in carpets and all cleaning supplies, etc.
Do they have no regulations on big corporations that pollute, or on vehicles and smog? Or is this a case of the "developed" world outsourcing our pollution to these unlucky nations somehow?
In corrupt countries, all you need to do is to pay corrupt government officials a big fat envelope under the table and you are good. No need for you to install expensive filters
Then don’t take fentanyl kiddo
