The Best of Dispatches -- July 20, 2008 - Milan, Rio de Janeiro, London, China, Siem Reap

Date: 07/20/2008
Length: 00:51:29

Biofuel backlash. How close we've come to competing with cars for our food. The story of responsible soy; a unique effort to stop clearcutting Brazillian rainforests. In China, they say, "To get rich, build a road." They did. Right across the country. Journalist Rob Gifford travelled it and shares his memoir about a country in dramatic change. In Cambodia, they're boiling swords into ploughshares. Weapons used by the Khmer Rouge to terrorize those in the silk industry are a key to its revival.
