Inner Mongolia and the impact of desertification | VPRO Documentary
In inner Mongolia the impact of desertification hits hard on the inhabitants. Nomads used to move if herds needed new and fresh grassland. With climate change the grassland is turning into a desert. Inner Mongolia is facing a desertification that costs many Mongolian their work and home. But not only the impact of desertification is a problem, also the mines are causing a lot of pollution. How are people in inner Mongolia living with the impact of desertification?
In the past 30 years life for people in China has changed drastically. The third world country has become one of the world leaders and still most of us don´t know a lot about China and their habitants. How is internet access, how is life as a homosexual and why is football so popular? Photographer Ruben Terlou wants to know all that and much more. He starts a new journey through China and travels from North to South, from the steppes to the tropics. While doing that, he tries to look for answers to his questions with a camera in his hand.
The first episode starts in the inland of Mongolia, where climate changes have major consequences for both ranchers and miners. Persistent droughts caused by climate change draw heavily on the lives of Mongolian herders and miners in the far north of China. On the yellowed grassland horse races and wrestling contests are still held. But many cattle farmers are forced to move, as the grassland turns into a desert.
Photographer Ruben Terlou visits the inland of Mongolia with a guide and meets locals that are victims of the climate change. On his journey he sees how the mines destroy the landscape and assists an operation of a horse.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written
language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through
audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio
while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using
a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Inner Mongolia or Nei Mongol (Mongolian: Mongolian script: Öbür Monggol, Mongolian Cyrillic: Өвөр Монгол Övör Mongol /ɵwɵr mɔŋɢɔɮ/; simplified Chinese: 内蒙古; traditional Chinese: 內蒙古; pinyin: PRC Standard Mandarin: Nèi Měnggǔ, ROC Standard Mandarin: Nèi Ménggǔ), officially the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region or Nei Mongol Autonomous Region (NMAR), is one of the autonomous regions of the People's Republic of China, located in the north of the country. Its border includes most of the length of China's border with Mongolia, and a small section of China's border with Russia. Its capital is Hohhot; other major cities include Baotou, Chifeng, and Ordos.
The Autonomous Region was established in 1947, incorporating the areas of the former Republic of China provinces of Suiyuan, Chahar, Rehe, Liaobei and Xing'an, along with the northern parts of Gansu and Ningxia.
Its area makes it the third largest Chinese subdivision, constituting approximately 1,200,000 km2 (463,000 sq mi) and 12% of China's total land area. It recorded a population of 24,706,321 in the 2010 census, accounting for 1.84% of Mainland China's total population. Inner Mongolia is the country's 23rd most populous province-level division. The majority of the population in the region are Han Chinese, with a sizeable titular Mongol minority. The official languages are Mandarin and Mongolian, the latter of which is written in the traditional Mongolian script, as opposed to the Mongolian Cyrillic alphabet, which is used in the state of Mongolia (formerly often described in the West as Outer Mongolia).

Making E-Juice and vaping in China.
In this video I talk about the many years I've been smoking and how I finally kicked the habit by using a vaporiser / e-cigarette. I also go through the very simple process of how to make your own 'no frills' e-juice.
Although it is much cheaper to make your own juice, buying the branded products will nearly always give you better quality in terms of flavour.
The following link is to the Taobao shop that I buy all the ingredients for making ejuice and more;
All flavours are natural. This guy has certification to show he has sourced the flavours from a company in the States. I took the trouble to email this company, and they did indeed confirm that they have been a supplier to this shop for some time.
Flavour:
PG / VG and Nicotine:
Please check out my good friend Luqy and his shop in China. Scan the QR code if you use WeChat and keep on vaping :)
Any questions, or suggestions with regard to other future video content, let me know. In the meantime, I hope you found this video useful, and as always please 'like' and/or 'subscribe'.
