the see the world, the subscribe now to dw talking entry, the, this is what thing looks like in the city of the lessons away the glorious sunshine i'm so i was everywhere. hello and welcome. i'm sorry because the body and you all watching eco. and while the weather seems absolutely for effect right now, it is only a matter of the weeks before the heat waves are upon us. and this is not just the city of delhi, but cities across the world have lost such perfect weather. these 2 extremes, temperatures and extreme weather events. and now we're just or we is hopping from
11:31 am
seat weighs droughts, florida spies to floods pale storms inside the loans and then the 4 weeks. and the sizes printing. speaking of psycho the winter in india will for she ended in february and the men department ordered us that'd be lost when does what on yours when you want. and despite the overall higher temperatures, the chord we've did no expense. i'm wiley on the side of the to some of us were was to like the auburn for many of whom are homeless ad works for us to stay in such nitrogen, my folly by heart dates. so look at the other thing that have them would spend the winter of the highest night descends in the city of delhi, the dipping more to the same as those on the street scrambling full ways to keep warm. every night i head out with my account rep, listen to documents, stories of the homeless and the poor. how are the coping with the frequent bolts?
11:32 am
of course we've that has gripped, know that india for the us. ok. the cartoon has been calling district of the bustling road as a whole. a bamboo, slight forms of wonderful food. and dr. info shown is her eating deal baby. so cather may not have heard of the word, climate change, but a nice on the streets is definitely governed by the with the a good day. she says is when the sun comes out to them, hopefully body 8 year old son arrived. he's waiting list of clues, what's new shoes? that keep taking my shoes a week to complete. a study by the lots of commission in 2020 bon phone, that in india, the number of decimal you linked with ob, normally port temperatures is more than 600000. not taking into account
11:33 am
the hardship and the loss of livelihoods due to illness from the port, or it's not just the homeless was suffering. i need to see the little window in the not to leads adjacent to the cities. flashy express. we hundreds like me though, so the city is a lead cleaning that holds their hands dipped included water or the does it onto the shanty quartets. oh yeah. beautiful. what fun to me. but if my son would be on the list and at night she says she keeps so says boom, by dropping many blankets, she's still scared to switch on any heating field of suffocation or electrocution. it'd be when i speak to agrees that the window this cl fields harsh, i'm detail from the indian metro logical department conforms, locate the sections not in states like deleon for job breach the most to the deep
11:34 am
sleep quickly in the last decade we does. we have to come shorter, but the density of the chord waves has increased in response to the core with the state government, the daily announced the with the action plan, hundreds of temporary shelters are set up across the city to it. so to be thinking, municipal solid about large in charge of the action plan shares more details. so these uh, $134.00 plus minus 10. so i did want before this window and they will be here too much. there's a large group of up i'm going to ask because people don't want to see them. i don't . yes, they say that. why do we have the should go ahead? yeah. don't. we don't want them in your government has been different, but we don't want to see it. we don't want to see it with the poor, little in addition to shelter for the poor, these in protection against the port. i hope to meet the standard government
11:35 am
supports and feels like actually a sponsor to provide for me to the whole. so it's my, they don't. one is the village at this sense all by nearly 20000 new. i mean, for the whole less than deli, i'm with rice mixed on the menu is the kind of a dash of the tea leaves and a splash of some green check. the data to, to now is in touch to dismantle spice's food. step down, i be blackstone resident of, of chip, opposite to understand how the means up to date seamlessly in this kitchen. they don't know shows or they don't have any house. and they asked in these, we have another, do they have a base? the cool. so for them this me now just a lot. so what we're doing is that the breakfast, lunch and dinner. the mission maybe to eliminate tongue to the organization is also conscious of reducing this problem for the kitchens on some fuel efficient stove.
11:36 am
and the top of the building is followed by solar energy. once the food is ready, it's sent for distribution in electric heat. as light defense, it's time distribution side deceptive degree that it's even though maybe the norm in the future will extreme cold weather in the window for a few days. i didn't turn screens in the summer. so the question is, how can i have the recall cities climate resilient? i am on my way to meet to individuals who may have some solutions. i don't have a goal sure helps the counsel for energy environment and water emphasizes the need for high quality data for bidding dimensions. what does needed to it is much more hyper local assessment. all of these risk and looking at a district level. and if you can generate and update the sub district that we have a scientific assessment of the way the experience might play out in this very
11:37 am
narrowly defined area. yeah. now let's map it to bundle both of those origins that is not just about providing to the so it's a step child, but also the creation of social infrastructure. whether it's to the soup kitchens, it's not just a near property or provide in your boss technologies like had mittens and electrical over codes to reduce exposure to the quote. with all these things quite a long. my next stop is at the office of architect bunkers, cook top, he's up to view that climate resilience for the pool can only be achieved by a more equitable view of city designs on with. i think one of the challenges of modernity and of modernist architecture, is when you're throwing the same set of tools that or problems they tend to be obscuring the actual root cause. and the other root causes when we're forgetting that or not to let traditions have been fine with friendly language changes in using. i don't know what subjects with it before. frontage advises that city
11:38 am
planners need to go back to the basics, to the in the pulse of building with the nuclear materials that as well suited to local federal conditions. on my last day of chronicling disability, i need to, that'd be a, she's been living in the tempter, the shelters for almost a month, and they get a trouble seemed big. but she has enough garden this in the heart to provide that feels towards the dining and kitchen dropped in her showing was on supported historian. reminder that e, without as was times the human spirit can be storm, resilient, human spit. it may not be enough to come back to the climate change. what is needed is community care coordination, smart use of technologies to advance early warning system under the team profile cities such that they can so many people have met on this story that
11:39 am
we just bought a glimpse into the lives of the oven for a lot of those who migrates into big cities often end up working. i've been a construction sites or as we speak us in harsh weather conditions. one of the major health pets that'd be face is equity use. and the majority of these walkers are women on who these in fact i'm much was this is the post world landfill. at about 20 to pick this. it's the 2nd largest dumpsite in this gap, which is new daily, more than 200000 people live alone. it's fair to meet us for the last 25 years came . i have lived and worked here as we speak, a pyramid comp is at the p. r used to go to work, then come home that send my child to school and do all the chose to go to excel. but for the boss here, my house hasn't been good. so piece. so i stopped going to walk as often as we are used to a 2025 days a month. but now i will gladly just put out that as of yet,
11:40 am
but i will know what estimate with them. i make out about the big for people who live this close to the line. so even the ad debrief is toxic in a city that has some of the most polluted ad in the woods, improper waste, dispos that makes things much worse. table is bought of a group of fuck the women who have been learning about this issue. and the reasons for the has problems they're planning to reach out to the thousands of other women who do similar work. the group meets regularly with local rep as natives and conducts public hearings on social medical and environmental issues. think this is extremely important to have this kind of community level engagement. because typically what happens is that, you know, people are not at the end of their is they are unwillingly, it's bush to high level of air pollution, heat, both outdoor indoor. so the 1st step definitely is that, uh, you know, the thing i learned is among them. and you know, some of these, our nets programs i'm aware of are also providing some individual level, you know,
11:41 am
a strategy to really add up to the situations. so people are more of it of the need for the strategies then looks on a she grew up in a family of ways because it has forced hot experience of the health problems. these by the women. things that are such as also seen in medical tests that in these b, this is, it says the primary function test. we found that this big of a main road about 3.6 times more likely to have a voice in long conditions and stuff like um, charities will 6 times likely to have worse and long functions. ask them back to me and because the cooking indoors and the cooking on bio bio mass fluids or do we highs is equal to look. so now i'm looking at the tunes and environmental action. i'm research group have set up a quantity monitoring devices across the neighborhood. this has local them in land,
11:42 am
they walk and daily activities. they avoid working in the waste of rent. the monitor flashes, red and fig precautions like reading box, even outside of book. back at home, the women have taken steps to cook with less than you think fewer. that's a good or this of to let the women here use bio mass jobs. but then be heard about a government program to provide for you guys to lenders. we looked into how to access the scheme of part of the v help that they used to do to 35 people in the colony obtain gas and interest gas bill idea in 2020 to the was air quality to for designed, debbie ford and a list of the boards 50 most when you did cities, all the air pollution affects everyone walker in the informal sector. so for the most major in perspective, projects and construction sites rely on no b workers who have little to no protection for pollution on the job. this homes that also near the construction site,
11:43 am
so they get little respite from the pollution. that's a good little pouring cement, always created a lot of dust under the effect of them, went into a mountain like that. we had no choice to live on the, the construction sector workers here are also organizing. i'm returning to work and see for jobs. many dodge default in an introductory book shop run by an n g, or to learn how to use the proper safety equipment. she says it made a difference. we will pick a not that of the model but i took part in this training for 15 days on august 21st and foremost what safety equipment i need to protect my health is the my goal on any with the efforts of women like fema looks odd and many may be a drop in the ocean would be hope that with time be will help raise awareness and promote better working conditions for, for informally was in debbie. as we have seen in this episode so far, extreme temperatures are increasingly becoming
11:44 am
a major problem. and this and telling me that now we need more artificial cooling and heating, especially in those spaces. the downside, so this is any sort of as envisioning what he thinks us when he consumes a lot of fossil fuels, which is done increase is global warming and form tribute to more extreme temperatures unexcused weather event. so is that a cleaner way of stacking this problem? let's find out nothing required small energy worldwide and keeping houses warm and providing to industry. teaching accounts for half of the global energy consumption and 72 percent. while heating comes from binding fossil fuels long story short to limit global warming. we need to bring heating emissions down. my name is the mid sized city of about $300000.00 inhabitants. it's 6 directly on germany's biggest river. right. and you guys, right. the river plays a key role in this story. the magic is happening in the local energy
11:45 am
providers producing headed m t t through it makes a fossil fuels and cold water until today, the region relied heavily on the most climate timing source for heating cooling. this is felix ok. he's energy manage it. energy company, m b z, the magic machine we're about to show you is his baby. this single thought plant is responsible for about $6800000.00 tons of c o 2 every year. it's almost one percent of germany's annual emissions, but this is changing for the better right now. the thing that i'm asking me and all the details of the water flow down the run that covers the amount of time seating needs several times over them even touch cold temperatures. so now it's about 6 or 7 degrees celsius from the physics point of view, and thus it's the enough heat within this deafening done is in fact
11:46 am
a heat pump for this by pushing from 800 meters of the type a 2nd. it can provide heat for $3500.00 households all year around. yeah. so this is where the wind going to comes in and goes to the lot sheet change of the event for right to. but it's, it's passed the heat to the foot tubing. okay, wait a 2nd, let's take a step back. this is what happens in all those pipes. the what that seems co to us, but it's easily warm enough to turn a liquid refrigerant into guess as this kind of upward, extremely low temperature is the gas expense. and electric pump then compresses this gas. this generates heat. this mechanism is so efficient. you can generate 3 times as much heat with the same energy as with a gas for that. it doesn't just work with river water. you get the same effect with heat from and the ground, the idea only the electricity for the pump comes from renewable entities. but even
11:47 am
if it comes from fossil fuels, it's still more sustainable. so now we're going to see the heat storage from wherever over the entire at the moment by far the largest proportion of this is still heated with cool. only 3 percent of the heat comes from the river, but that was soon changed as the coal fired power station will probably be shut down by 2033. as energy efficient and sustainable, every of the heat pump is taking heat from the river means that the warranty is being discharged. 3 degrees quarter after the process with potentially negative impact on a larger scale. however, due to the small quantities of water being discharged, the temperature in the river only changes by less than 110000th of a degree according to mtv. but now i mentioned one of them there with ryan, with a major city, so they're wanting to cover that tie he to month, including industrial tons such as the b s f. so could extra funds along the river
11:48 am
line. it will useful to mid that might use water for, for heat pumps, for the processes, and suddenly you get to, you get an issue with another issue on the refrigerants. the can be terrible greenhouse gases. there are alternatives on the market which have less global warming potential, but some of the other issues such as being easy to ignite and manufacturers tend to produce business as usual. in my name, the generated heat is distributed by district heating over and on the ground. in germany, around 15 percent of all buildings, i know he does in this way, and most of it could be meant by large heat pumps, cutting out cold and gas. they asked of a nice but installation stuff started to pick up. the problems can expect energy from almost any say, yeah, way for to see if you're from the ground. is it only 2 issues? because it's pretty small too. and be used in almost any residential building like this one by 20. so the heat pumps could save as many emissions as all the costs and
11:49 am
you have produced a year with smaller units taking a central stage, especially as heat pumps can also turn from heating into cooling mode at a more energy efficient than classic air conditioners. but there is a catch, of course, it's the money, a particular woman, sterling of fast heat pump. switching from a different hating system is always going to be more expensive as we are now right now in 2024 heat pumps can cause $2.00 to $4.00 times more than natural gas boilers . it's a big outlay, especially for low income families. on the other hand, long term they could save you money as heat pumps need less energy in europe. households currently save on average $900.00 per year and in the us $300.00. but the advantage of fossil fuel heating depends highly on. yep. energy prices is full . the recent energy price cost is when prices became unpredictable and fall the
11:50 am
tile on average, of course, your electricity was around $33.00 times more expensive in gas. so you can see if you having especially heat pump getting a 300 percent full 100 percent efficiency, you might be saving some money back in the u. k, where ours is before the price crosses electricity was 5 times more expensive in gas. so you can see that, that you would really struggle to be saving some money. so if heat pumps almost sustainable and becoming kelly viable depends highly on your government's energy policies, whether they've favor cheap, green electricity over fossil fuels. in man, i'm the prospect of high su to texas local climate targets and states subsidies for the construction of the plans with the size if in the switch to read the heating that target is to provide almost 100 percent clean heat by 2030. the funds will cover all of that would be one important component to eventually shut down the dirty coal power plant behind me in the near future might of smaller scale, deep problems, almost sustainable,
11:51 am
and can make regions more independent from fossil fuels. let's have to wait for me . i look beyond foss, south side to and fashion. the country is increasingly becoming a fox sports for climate change. while nearly 300 explain that events were recorded in 2009 in 2019 over 1600 such events was recorded, which is almost of 5 for the increase in nearly a decade. last year the country that guarded 2 devastating floods and the steam off to a long period of city are dropped. i'm much like into all farmers and if any are struggling as well. let's speak to one such pharma. to find out more. to andrea milan drury the floods last spring word disaster. his 25 heck to farm was completely submerged. he lost huge costs of his harvest, of keywords, apples and peaches, a loss of more than half a 1000000 yours. he said there's only physicians,
11:52 am
but that has this traffic floods or any one menace. italy is considered particularly vulnerable to climate change. in recent years, milan jerry says he's grappled with drought, hailstones, tornadoes, and coal snaps. middlebrook about to put on the on the on the lot before i was worried about it already and i told now i'm more slides or am i up to boulder cooling early on. i cool jennings at this, i want to talk to somebody about in toyota, but it's nothing but i figured i'd love to see mentioned in the beginning of the isn't just climate change that played a role in the flooding. some of the reasons seem to be made and media romania is one of italy's most fragile regions when it comes to flux and then finds mainly because of use of unchecked construction in nearly vo, plains ceiling entire areas already present to flooding over 200000 tank tubs of land have been paved over encroaching upon forests. if you only thing that are
11:53 am
these 3 rivers or squeezed into ever higher and narrow banks to give space to houses, industries in agriculture, we need to reverse this approach. we've got more about that a little 6 years ago, the regional government, austin ambitious, the roland consumption bill, but it was never implemented by any sense. piracy flooded areas have long be well mapped. blue lines clearly indicate when nothing should be built, but they kept being ignored. and you know what, i but then when i worked in the local administration, so counselors sometimes came and asked me to move the lines to allow their friends and such to be of this is the problem. when politics does things like that, it's not looking out for the public interest or the interest of future generations . no, to say that a simple because the theater instead of the new many of the canals and streams of
11:54 am
amelia romani is extensive irrigation infrastructure of us that banks meet urologist politi randy says, because it's on the face 2 years of extreme draft before maintaining the regions waterways and river banks was no priority with one of the calls because of the fund . one of the things we need to do is to restructure and we model the land for a new climate company. my case that i want can i look at the mortgage? we have to take charge and invest an infrastructure that can bring us towards adoption, booked out of and they all put in we will have to adapt, which is the name of the doctor. that's also evident in the town of mo, deanna. it's recorded over 200 land slides in may 2023. local authorities say, well, the priority is to rebuild the dissolve to shows it comp simply be business as unusual request re we have to rebuild with respect for the natural landscape entering and the florida salma. and jerry, i'm a lender. he doesn't know how long he'll be able to hold out in the face of
11:55 am
increasingly frequent, extreme weather events, friday, all geological thought and the queen, the farmer today has become almost a whole brook enterprise. let me put it all a bus here to this whole thing because usually it's going to be tough to the really tough while i media romani, i had to deal with the often math of the floods. the question of what amplified this tragedy and what can be learned from it is growing evan outta sol, menu, a fuel watch actual from different spots of the was i'm come from such a way these cultures and contacts and yet climate change. in fact, all of us solve possibly doing more than the others, but no one is on touched. let me know how do you feel about this? i'd love to hear you can email us or reach out to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week until then take care. good bye. last gosh.
