to see the world, the subscribe now to dw talking entry, the neil armstrong, the 1st man in the moon after him and buzz aldrin and 1969, the only 10 others of the things that put there. but the 2 men certainly revelled in their pioneering achievements. nasa will soon be sending a new crew to them is, although this time the space trips will just be the proverbial leap forward for human kind. they'll also involve major business opportunities for commercial contractors also, and this addition of made the double use business magazine, higgs will fly. we investigate the use of pork, fat, and jet fuel oil or bio diversity the dilemma facing south american nations and

sponge cities. copenhagen plants protect itself from flooding. often more than 50 is not says heading back to the me and not just for a short visit. so the 1st time humans attend lives and works at the us space agencies. multi phase awesome is mission is paving the way for permanent moonbase and many of masses contracts going to private tech companies. you need housing, you need the ability to communicate a back to earth, but also to other places on the surface. there's all these needs that you have just like we have needed here are there's needs that you have for living on the moon. and that's as looking for the commercial sector to fill that in the fast phase of the mission in 2020, to an online space capsule over to,
7:32 am
to mean to $25.00 days in 2020 for us to know what to do to make the journey. so assess time, russia, china, and india, and i would say planning missions. but the main is an inhospitable place. temperatures hit a 100 degrees celsius during the day and minus a $170.00 at night, plus there's no oxygen. so how will scientists conduct research that you're asking, what are the, the capabilities that are most likely to be developed? i think it's ones that are centered around what it takes to keep an astronaut alive and connected. and that kind of basic range of functions that they need to to do. there is money to be made and meeting the needs of the main checklist. above all, through the infrastructure are required to search for war to control of materials. not service investing in the development of unmanned robots likes to invite the
7:33 am
noun rates that it's set to tax. the large quantities of water found at the means pose together with the vehicle developed by the american company, astra bostic technology. the general major is, is also working with lockheed martin on the development of the battery pallet clean already bought this b 6. that means the most important element is water. for example, to produce hydrogen or oxygen as propulsion for further emissions. and the launching from the surface of the moon will then be much cheaper than from earth, as well as for launching satellites around the earth. and you have the mic. no, that can naturally enforcement results is regulus noon dust. and there's plenty of is not the plans to extract it using special mining robots which are currently in the 1st stages of testing in the main dust will be used to construct houses. 3 d
7:34 am
printers will print the building pots initially on us and later on the moon itself to save on transportation costs. and this is what the finished modules could look like. get it out with furniture for like a comfortable house. the community would also need electricity and internet. nokia plans to set up a full g network. that space is the ultimate hybrid. it is a, a, a very unique area where countries get advantages from and there is a whole bunch of unexplored opportunity on the moon is the opportunity to say no leadership to the rest of the world saying here, look how strong our capabilities are. but also there's, there's real value in be there. the most lucrative cautious space exploration is space rockets and leading the way is even less company space x. here launch
7:35 am
rockets are being built to the set and for the stages of the ultimate mission, they'll be able to transport tons of materials to the main. nasa is investing billions and that development several attempts have already failed about success is likely only a matter of time. what size is it for a moving base? the assumption is you need mass is comparable to those for the international space station or even more in orbit, and they need to be continuously supplied. and you have to imagine the same for the moon. and so that the astronaut. so let's say look stylish on the next me mission. fashion company, prada is co designing the seats. the moon is endlessly fascinating and currently inspiring many new business ideas and decades past the most famous advertising figure on the western world of
7:36 am
gasoline market was this very guy messed up for the brand belonging to us fuel jaya, text on mobile, the marketing slogan for car drivers put a tiger in your tank. today there's a different type of animal component and fuel this time for environmental reasons. prime example, port fat used in kerosene. a growing number of the airlines are using it as an additive, as governments, instead, ition fuel has to become more sustainable, but is putting picks that in your tank. really a good idea how about flying from paris to new york for the equivalent of 9000? takes a new tank. one environmental, great, what town? lots, what it would take to fuel a plane over that distance. pigs publish lots of font which can be used in aviation field. it's some things that we're clean union wants to see more of in the future. we use animal fats because the level of quality animal fats are
7:37 am
relatively easy to convert into sustainable aviation fuel animals, diesel. and the processing equipment that we have is, is a relatively searchable with some adapt taishan to, to take those feed stocks. so man, i like ryan is going to start using animal sciences soon as possible to know life still can we slow to to fuel instead of 5 just to be taken from meat, industry waste, and then added to ordinary kerosene. but why go to the trouble? there is a growing demand to use animals that india visual sector of the new men, they swear, refuel to you, because they will be counted as sustainable education fuels. refill you is a political agreement aimed at cutting c o. 2 emissions from aviation, of across the us in union and using animal funds is part of that. but other
7:38 am
industries that rely on animal side for the production, like the cosmetics and food industries, i'm worried that wouldn't be enough to go around. talk through pick stone elementary ease. of course. the problem is that the more you direct them to glasses production of the bigger issue you have for these. and this is the have to find the benefits. very often you know, 7 inches of vegetable oil. and these are almost not to be found well, um that are the cheapest option available and having the most similar project just done and will fits have issues connected to deforestation to human rights violations. and many other problems. many environmental risk via palm oil could become the number one alternative, low palm royal means mohammed oil times patients, which usually come at the expense of the rain forest. it's important to note as
7:39 am
well that the european commission recognizes that. and the, the regulation being develops the aides and refill you aviation sets a cap of 3 percent of animal fat that arrived sustainable aviation fuel. however, this translates according to our reputations, to more than $1000000.00 tons of additional animals. but ultimately flying last may be the only way to bring down carbon emissions across here it says your low should contain petroleum or your bubble gum. perhaps you drive it gasoline powered car or a plastic one. they're all dependent on oil. as our menu, south american countries in terms of the wealth generated from petroleum production, the region is in the midst of an oil rush. well, some countries are increasing their output, others are bucking the trend for the sake of the environment,
7:40 am
the bigger houses, bigger bridges, bigger plans. it was ones one of the poorest countries in the region. now the tiny south americanization of diana is one of the worlds fastest growing economies because of oil. okay, and it isn't a low countries across south america are pursuing new drilling projects. others are on a different path folders in ecuador, rejecting government drilling. plants, colombia says it's done with new fossil fuel projects to focus on renewables. you know, so to those we have this conjunction of water, sun, and wind at the same time, at the same place. and then we model that one confidence, 2 different approaches to the wealth buried underground, but which one is right? the guy out of joining the ranks of the world's boy produces for the 1st time on friday
7:41 am
as us or a company exxon mobil said it'd be gone for just to include off the coast of the south american country, making the i know this video is from december 2019, but changing guy on a really started for years earlier. that's when exxon mobil made the 1st of a series of major oil discoveries offshore. over the years, the findings of total, an estimated $11000000000.00 barrels new oil wells are now set to come on line throughout the decade. growing guy honest production by hundreds of thousands of barrels at a time. by 2028, the country could be pumping 1200000 barrels a day, making it one of the world's top oil producers. that could change everything for the country. guy honest sits on the north east coast of south america. it has roughly 800000 residents in 2019 it's poverty rate was nearly 50 percent according to the world bank. now the economy is growing by double digit figures, and that growth is already visible. every building that's going on is 4 stories or,
7:42 am
and 5. every rule of this you might have seen before is being transformed into the, for the, in the oil boom is also brought new problems, locals, complaint of rising costs. and not everyone is profiting immediately. that has a stop guy on his neighbors from looking at their own offshore projects. brazil is preparing to develop oil blocks along it's northern coast. so is there a not, which is working with french driller to tile energies. and all of this at a time when new oil projects technically should be, think of the past in south america, many new projects and both offshore drilling. that's especially attractive to investors as the oil, as easy to access, keeping costs low, but much of south america as well is still on short. and overall production there has been falling after decades of lower investment. that's a traditional ex borders like mexico and venezuela, the hardest. their output has fallen in recent years. in that case,
7:43 am
how long does it make sense to continue new drilling? growth in demand for oil should slow significantly this decade, driven in large part by the rise of electric vehicles. peak demand could soon follow, but so far there are few signs that global demand will plummets. we think that the kind of oil demand decline, storage, play me see if you, whether your way, whether your columbia, whether your so the right the you are to look to extract every last viral from these rest of law. i don't think the demand is going to be that, but there are growing reasons why south american countries might hesitate to drill, including opposition in their own country every single time. but i know most people have been going through the reverse. it goes through all of these a consistent, impactful living community. jorge espinoza is part of an organization in ecuador, that opposes government drilling in. yes, so need national park. yes. and he is considered to be per square meter,
7:44 am
one of the most by diverse regions on earth is also hold to several indigenous tribes. the block in dispute has been estimated to hold 1700000000 barrels of oil. and the government has been drilling there for years in august, protest record a major victory with voters across equity works clearly rejected the drilling in a referendum. it's not just equity where we're public concern over drilling is growing. brazil, state oil, producer plans to drill and an offshore region known as the equitorial margin. it's right next to the mouth of the amazon river. the protesters in the country have pushed hard against the move. no south american government has become as vocally opposed to oil as columbia president, gustavo pittsville has moved to band fracking and suspend new oil gas and coal exploration. he's called oil and addiction and said that his country needs to focus on the transition through doable. instead of the house came out of the city while they lets the jungles burn, while hypocrites who persecute the plans,
7:45 am
they convince him most to hide the disasters of their own society to see that they ask us for more and more cold, more and more oil to come the other addiction and throw knew that of consumption all about that of power the, that of money little while they're live in the middle. columbia has around 7 years of oil left at its track production. the country says, and it will likely depend on that revenue for some time and it's no small amount of money. in 2022 revenues from oil exports added up to about 20 percent of the government's plan budget for the following year. boca test says, tourism and clean energy exports can make up more of that revenue. but even with a solid base of clean energy, much bit hydro power, columbia has important more electricity in recent years than it's ex, ported, and tourism figures would have to jump dramatically to begin to approach fossil fuel revenues. and this is the tricky part of the global transition away from oil, the obligations of individual countries,
7:46 am
especially those that are poor to countries, there have the same responsibility to limit fossil fuel projects because of climate goals, or maybe even a greater one because of the amazon base and we'll local c resource extraction as a scourge or as an guy on a, an opportunity to improve their lives that they won't be lectured about. stop is a big position as a government here. that is, we don't want to hear from the 1st or the developed countries that we much restrain what we've done, because they've been pumping to go so you know, hundreds of years and producing destroying the forest. we have a right to be able to develop our resorts is even if the consequences of continued oil drilling on a global level are quite clear. for south american countries at the oil cross roads to different directions. no simple answers. the sponges are used to scrub dishes,
7:47 am
clean your home for yourself. their criminal characteristic is that they absorb water and release that when run out. more and more cities are now using that principle to protect themselves from flooding. but how do you turn this city into a sponge? on the 2nd of july 2011. this is what copenhagen looked like. dead draughts floated in the stormwater after the ones that the powers in new york kind of bring a quarter of the signing vision, low cost of sick in the after month. and one even died of a blood infection. but it didn't still fit in full out of the last 6 years. the city has seen i've known the cloud bus, but it's conventional stormwater system con. do with, how do i figure flag proof of city of the scale if i was, it was 5 years ago, this 3 who don't have been to, but instead that may have been an s u, v stuck in congested traffic. this square is one over on $300.00 spots and
7:48 am
copenhagen chosen for me. cooper. it used to be a busy round about that it has now become a wooded area in the middle of the city. it's one part of the plan to turn copenhagen into a kind of giant sponge for the next 100 years after the devastating 2011 sledge. it's here that i met eon, joshua, some of the head of the cities cowed both management plans. who told me that they wasn't able to wake up, call the position to decide to at that time, that's read a need for getting a lot out of the city very fast. they ask all the time how to do this in a table weight. it could be expand to sewage system or could we do it in multiple way? maybe they had the rain bought at surface and at the same time it may get disconnected with the waste from or reinstate the mall by diversity. and so didn't mom me and these are facing in the city. so young scheme worked at the sound about, into water cause the green component of the code was fighters from plan invisible side control in plain sight. that's
7:49 am
a small pump. mm hm. because the by more than i mean if the water continues to come and the cost is. ready road here in a lot of ponds for hers in the, in this connected to the see these little link phones are being built on across the city to hold excess water from land phone. but it's not just phones, some projects a smaller, but simple. go to like green roof, less noticeable or widespread climate inlets and looks like ordinary janes, the bigger and in areas with the higher risk, all based on the map, young steam device of how the city is likely to flood in a toad. boast event. much of the 2000000000 euros given to the water department is going 20 meters underground into the backbone of the project. the tunnel with this kind of dense of an area, you cannot solve the problem adjustment green solutions. this is jessica thousands costs. we look for the city water department on
7:50 am
a giant tunneling project. 500. you can do all sort of things on the surface and all of this you can remove maybe 3050 millimeters of rain. but if you're getting 150 or 200 millimeters of writing, you need a big system. so really trans point was a way, there's no way volts it can get into the hopper without making it tell me like this . the new tunnel network is 3. me doesn't die meter and runs for 18 to them. it goes across the city. the donald's would carry water from the bones and the roofs to us the harbor. but they still have another function for the rest of the year to watch what can be stored here instead of in the sewage system and slowly release into the hub that keeps the water quality in check. and so people in copenhagen can swim in the harbor and the canal system through the young and the tunnel step in again in a storm. if you have a heavy storm wave stop cutting, floating industries, we just opened it up and can the transport all the water through the pumping station into the, into the hub. okay?
7:51 am
so it will simply empty, the strange that will still be was the industry. so, i mean, it's not completely dry, but we'll go from from have between half and one meters down to, to 10 centimeters. essentially this maximum. mm hm. and how much water can this whole system deal with? the, the, the amount of water that can be transported in the system is determined by the pump station you have at the end of and the pumpkin, the live. it's one saved cubic meter per 2nd. and 2000 to be this per 2nd know, however you will, expressive, and as soon as you have it have a storm loud and you stop getting was in the streets, it will stop and it will just keep em to the many cities are in the process of measuring that on sponging is not every city has as much free space. so as beef never post some a much more dense, i'm still developing so many calculating how to climate proof themselves based on their own, differing needs. beijing, for example, how's the water shortage problem?
7:52 am
and if designs relies on retaining what to the china is actually leading the world with over 60. or if it's all the 600 cities planning a redesign, john joseph deallocated, the only 800000000 euros for the project over 5 years. and it was between roofs and rain gardens, but it's still struggled with flooding and 2021 because it's not easy. the indian city of, of chan name on by and what to you, i holding against the studying during the month. so i'm water shortages for the rest of the of the 2nd part is not a problem or i am copenhagen has is really high what the table i'm so that's what the, every way that's why i'm on a bus that's about i'm on my way to an old block in the center of the city, calling hobbin park, and that integrates both green and great infrastructure. this path walks on 3 levels. the 1st is a rose garden under which water from the surrounding areas is storage. disorders can also function that as a result of water resource during dr. periods for the cost to keep the car the product clean. if this storage tank is field,
7:53 am
we'll stop peeling this thoughts. brown. see over here, this is at a lower level than everything else. so it can receive water easily and be filled up as soon as the water starts to overflow, when it could look like this. and then there's the one when it is a mess of code, both a wall comes up here to close off this compounds. and this thing behind me will go into a giant basin that stalls the a few of the projects have been financed by taxpayer money. but most of the funding is linked to consumption through a levy on the water bill of tombs and companies. and if it costs explodes too much, then we'll say, okay, we don't do it, but then there might be some more damages locally. mm hm. and you informed the citizen that they have to protect their feelings. but even with this much investment adapt ation to changing reinforcement only go so far with this kind of
7:54 am
kind of be able to handle the worst case scenario in terms of funding and storm. well, you have to decide what kind, what size of storm and that will always be a storm that is bigger. so that's it. so is a probability and a so protection of climate change. so how often will this happen? but there's always will be a rain fall that could be even bigger. so you'll never protect it. 100 percent. but it gives a saving protection from the front of a sudden probability. and then you would lose so much. so your investment is compared to your risk of loss, and that's the size of investment we're making. that might sound like redesign pragmatism, but copenhagen's been implementing it's cloud based management plan for more than 10 years. are those cities or know those watching very closely weighing up the cost of investing now to lower the loss in damages, climate change, it's likely to bring around the world. sally is the world's 2nd largest metropolitan region with

a population of almost 33000000. the indian mega city has devised an unusual concept to prevent flooding with a key role played by rivers and the surrounding region. the timing, the floods with wetlands. these daily lights are restoring the flood plains of the yamuna river, their removing suspended, silt, expanding the catchment area and planting trees. wetlands absorbed water like natural sponges slowing, the water is slow down stream. in their natural state, reviving dry wetlands and clearing storm drains is key to allowing the water to flow with them. some of the
