9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I have always been super fascinated[br]at humans ability to adapt.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We are so good at holding, on to the[br]things that make us, you know, who we are.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But if there's anything that can throw[br]a wrench, and then idea probably 2020,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but you do have to admit.[br]It is pretty awesome.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Seeing people globally, just sort[br]of figure out new ways to survive.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let's just take a second as an example,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and we'll get Lebanon,[br]but I'm going to warn you.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If you're a vegetarian, this[br]is probably going to be rough.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Since October, 2019, Lebanon has been[br]on the verge of economic collapse,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for months, protesters[br]filled Beirut streets,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
demanding an end to the government[br]corruption. They blame for inflation,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
soaring unemployment and[br]unaffordable food prices.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The pandemic only made[br]the situation worse.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Now, this crisis upon a crisis is even[br]changing the way Lebanese people eat.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
There's animal is double this way.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Enter velocity, but let's[br]check on the limonene.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Resembles amaro's, Kazuma.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Well, after you buy up your alley.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Anxiety about money has never been[br]higher meaning. For many Lebanese

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
meat is now only for special occasions.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Like today,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
when Muslims are preparing[br]to celebrate Eid al-adha,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the Feast of the sacrifice traditionally

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that sacrifice is a sheep butchered[br]based on Islamic law to be plan

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for outside. The butcher shop, these[br]guys try to make a run for it, but

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
unluckily for them. They were caught.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The plan from Slayer,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
vegetarian.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What a dumb.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Hey there.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Families. Like the Ridaz who can[br]still afford a lamb for the holiday

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
are paying double what they[br]did for sheep last year.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
100% increase in the poverty rate means[br]life is changed for most in Beirut.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lot of even France want to Lodge

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a celebrity chef who's hosted his own[br]daily cooking show for the last 30 years.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Yeah, and actually just go to[br]my worry analogies will carry

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
me to do, people carry in

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
our body,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but they can additionally it will match[br]back to live. Nearly had to look around

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and let me yeah. Headquarter[br]on Olivia. I'm sorry.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It going bye-bye.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lebanon's, dire situation[br]got even worse in August.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
When a massive explosion in[br]Beirut killed more than 190 people

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
caused billions of[br]dollars in property damage

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and destroyed the country's largest port.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Lebanon, had depended on that[br]port to bring an 80% of its food

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that Reliance on imported food had already[br]driven some people to find Solutions

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Beyond just switching[br]their diets. I'm going like

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I think more than 100 types of[br]foods such as trees, avocados.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Mongo's,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Carrie Manhattan was a cafe on her Beirut

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
before closing up his shop[br]and returning to his hometown.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
My decision to come back was.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Merely for just security.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I found that really futile to try to seek

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a flow of income

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so I can use that and[br]come and spend it on food

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
while I can actually just grow my own.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So here's my lab, that's a sample[br]of the things we process in stock.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I Clans cucumbers and[br]matter because some herbes.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I don't believe a lot[br]of people are content.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
They're not satisfied. And they want[br]to continue affording meat and chicken

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
almost on a daily basis, which is[br]so unhealthy and it's abnormal.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The system is setting us up for[br]failure and they're stretching it out

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
as much as possible. They're[br]milking us to the last penny.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I really fear for the future. I don't[br]think we have a bright future coming.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You don't have a choice either. You[br]sit and you fight or just migrate live.
