00:00This country has a population of 3 million and almost 12 million people visit as tourists every
00:05year. Albania in southern Europe has beaches, mountains, wild rivers and lagoons filled with
00:11flamingos. But more tourists mean more infrastructure and everything that comes with it.
00:16The country has seen months of protests against these changes, especially since Jared Kushner,
00:21Trump's son-in-law's firm, announced plans to build a massive luxury resort around this
00:27flamingo-filled lagoon. Many warned that allowing this would open the floodgates that could result
00:31in the destruction of several other protected areas of the country. Right now, Albania faces
00:36a difficult choice. What happens when you develop the nature that makes tourists want to come in the
00:40first place?
