Dirty Tricks Air pollution in African cities is catastrophic, with smog a daily fact of life. This is making people ill, with frequent cases of asthma and bronchitis. But there are far more cars on the roads in Paris or London than in Lagos or Dakar. The main reason for the poor air quality in African cities is the high sulfur content of gasoline and diesel – with sulfur limits up to 300 times greater than in Europe. A situation that’s being exploited by crude oil traders. Swiss commodity companies are selling substandard oil to Africa legally and importing high quality fuel to Europe. The documentary Dirty Tricks – Selling Toxic Fuel to Africa draws back the veil on this shady business.

IN GOOD SHAPE
Battling Baldness A full head of hair reflects vitality, health, youth and sexual attractiveness. That’s why for many people losing hair is a catastrophe. The problem mainly affects men, but women also suffer hair loss with advancing age. Frequently, a person’s genes are to blame. Hair loss can also be caused by hormonal changes, stress, an unbalanced diet or immune disorders. But all is not lost – there are things we can do. These days, early therapies can prevent baldness. These are effective as long as the hair loss is not genetic. But this is the case for many men. When women lose their hair this can often cause great distress. Few of the hair restoring products on the market deliver on their promises. Hair transplants are however quite prom-ising. Now that more and more celebrities are opting for this kind of beauty therapy, the sector is booming. In Good Shape watches a hair transplant taking place and presents other therapies to counter hair loss.

Germany 4.0 Digitalization, networked working worlds and migration. Industrial production is increasingly intermeshed with modern in-formation and communications technol-ogy. The big data manager is replacing the tool manufacturer. The traditional com-pany landscape is updating itself by the minute. How are the Germans faring in Industry 4.0? Made in Germany outlines this radical change – in the four-part se-ries “Germany 4.0”. Reporters show where smart production is already taking place, but also where the analog deserts are. A 24-hour trip to the Alps, the coast and to central Germany.
