White Gold: The True Cost of Cotton

wow that really is something
corrupt government
child labour
environmental catastrophy
uzbekistan looks like its failing as a country

Sounds like a corrupt government, but I'm sure they'd clean their act up a lot with a different crop----yeah right. Blame it on a renewable/natural resource that is literally on most of you right at this moment?? Don't blame it on cotton (at 58 cents a pound??) Blame it on people.

Wait a second, you are going to say that cotton is the only reason for the drying up of the Aral Sea? Any person in Academia knows the importance of multiple causation. You can't ignore global warming. This is absurd.

Try listening properly for a change. The report states that irrigation for cotton is the "primary" reason, not the only reason.

To save Aral Sea, there is only one option which is STOP BUY THOSE BLOODY COTTONS FROM UZBEKISTAN

it dont matter where its grown.This is an evil crop and you and me drive the demand. There are alternatives to cotton.Check it out.

Wow my heart goes to Uzbek citizens. They have to oust the current president. He is not doing anything to benefit ordinary citizens of Uzbekistan.

Bizku xato qildik. Endi O'zing tuzatgin. Shuncha vaqt biz bilan eding. Bugun qiynalganda tashlab ketmagin.

Ma'qulmas. Toshkent tarixini o'rganing, O'zbeklarni kelib chiqish tarixini o'rganing. Shunda ular ham bir bulagimiz ekanligni tushinib etasiz. Aslida gap millatda emas gap xalqda.

corrupted government, very greedy. abuse its own pple to gain its profit from cotton. some more no technic how to get rid of the pesticides used, causing damage to its people health.
