Episode description

From the BBC World Service: The Panamanian government has declared a state of emergency in one province. It comes after U.S. banana giant Chiquita Brands laid off about 5,000 workers following a strike that had stopped production. Prosecutors in Brazil are suing the Chinese EV giant BYD, accusing it and two contractors of human trafficking and slave-like conditions at a factory site. And we take a look at Europe's biggest plant for processing the rare earth minerals a lot of modern technology relies on.
