1
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I have always been super fascinated
at humans ability to adapt.

2
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We are so good at holding, on to the
things that make us, you know, who we are.

3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But if there's anything that can throw
a wrench, and then idea probably 2020,

4
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but you do have to admit.
It is pretty awesome.

5
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Seeing people globally, just sort
of figure out new ways to survive.

6
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Let's just take a second as an example,

7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and we'll get Lebanon,
but I'm going to warn you.

8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
If you're a vegetarian, this
is probably going to be rough.

9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Since October, 2019, Lebanon has been
on the verge of economic collapse,

10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for months, protesters
filled Beirut streets,

11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
demanding an end to the government
corruption. They blame for inflation,

12
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
soaring unemployment and
unaffordable food prices.

13
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The pandemic only made
the situation worse.

14
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now, this crisis upon a crisis is even
changing the way Lebanese people eat.

15
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
There's animal is double this way.

16
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Enter velocity, but let's
check on the limonene.

17
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Resembles amaro's, Kazuma.

18
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Well, after you buy up your alley.

19
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Anxiety about money has never been
higher meaning. For many Lebanese

20
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
meat is now only for special occasions.

21
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Like today,

22
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
when Muslims are preparing
to celebrate Eid al-adha,

23
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the Feast of the sacrifice traditionally

24
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that sacrifice is a sheep butchered
based on Islamic law to be plan

25
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for outside. The butcher shop, these
guys try to make a run for it, but

26
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
unluckily for them. They were caught.

27
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The plan from Slayer,

28
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
vegetarian.

29
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What a dumb.

30
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Hey there.

31
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Families. Like the Ridaz who can
still afford a lamb for the holiday

32
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
are paying double what they
did for sheep last year.

33
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
100% increase in the poverty rate means
life is changed for most in Beirut.

34
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Lot of even France want to Lodge

35
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
a celebrity chef who's hosted his own
daily cooking show for the last 30 years.

36
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Yeah, and actually just go to
my worry analogies will carry

37
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
me to do, people carry in

38
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
our body,

39
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but they can additionally it will match
back to live. Nearly had to look around

40
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and let me yeah. Headquarter
on Olivia. I'm sorry.

41
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It going bye-bye.

42
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Lebanon's, dire situation
got even worse in August.

43
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
When a massive explosion in
Beirut killed more than 190 people

44
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
caused billions of
dollars in property damage

45
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and destroyed the country's largest port.

46
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Lebanon, had depended on that
port to bring an 80% of its food

47
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that Reliance on imported food had already
driven some people to find Solutions

48
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Beyond just switching
their diets. I'm going like

49
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I think more than 100 types of
foods such as trees, avocados.

50
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Mongo's,

51
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Carrie Manhattan was a cafe on her Beirut

52
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
before closing up his shop
and returning to his hometown.

53
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
My decision to come back was.

54
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Merely for just security.

55
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I found that really futile to try to seek

56
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
a flow of income

57
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so I can use that and
come and spend it on food

58
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
while I can actually just grow my own.

59
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So here's my lab, that's a sample
of the things we process in stock.

60
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I Clans cucumbers and
matter because some herbes.

61
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't believe a lot
of people are content.

62
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They're not satisfied. And they want
to continue affording meat and chicken

63
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
almost on a daily basis, which is
so unhealthy and it's abnormal.

64
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The system is setting us up for
failure and they're stretching it out

65
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
as much as possible. They're
milking us to the last penny.

66
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I really fear for the future. I don't
think we have a bright future coming.

67
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You don't have a choice either. You
sit and you fight or just migrate live.
