to have an opportunity to, to get it right before we even start environmental activists of skeptical rules fail billions to be made out to talk, to mentoring deep the greed dots june 7th on t w. the samsung party, rather than taking cold thousands of meters below ground, there's structural change going on and the good call made the valley rates. but now fossil fuels are on their way out to farmer coal region has transformed and is being used in a completely different way you start up to taking over also in this week show the energy transition. new technology is to help the climate, the solar industry. there's competition and candidate plans

on the road to success between industry that leads phasing out over the next few decades. the global fossil fuel industry is going to change with a new opportunities, jobs, and even levels of prosperity will arise. but for one region in germany, the transition is most critical is and if i can contribute to driving this hydrogen production and i'll be extremely proud of myself. and if it doesn't work, in the real reason, it won't work anywhere under the ruler valley used to be germany's industrial power house with its coal mines and steel manufacturing. the region is located in germany's far west, close to the netherlands and belgium sections. so it says i used to be a coal mine, but operation it's ended in the late 19 eighties. now it houses a museum,

as well as offices for tech companies. let's see what's happening here is preservation through conversion and transformation. i think you can see that very well here. you can take good experiences from it, and those are transferable over the top of coal from germany's will region hasn't been economically viable since the 19 sixty's when plans were made to shut down the regions. coal production workers, they are organized unions, politicians and industry banded together to support the miners. what does my husband comes unemployed? what then? that little bit of hope that lights up. we shine us the women from day one. that's also going to vanish. the german government important money into coal companies to keep these jobs. but realizing that coal wasn't future proof, politicians change their strategy, choosing to retrain workers and support small businesses. it's a process experts say worked well, but the political experiments had to be abandoned in the 19 ninety's,

after germany's re unification, public funding was diverting to germany's eastern regions that were in dire need of investment. even today, the roar lags behind the rest of germany. but one thing has worked well for the region, the push towards education and research for the past 20 years. the hydrogen and fuel cells center into sports has brought scientists, industry, and politicians together and researches new technologies. because the region is still looking for new sources of energy. if you see me, we have a very large chemical industry. we have a very large steel industry and we've growing up with industry. and that for as part of our gene was always done by the fact that we are an industrial region and the chance to make this technology this industry green now is a great opportunity for us. it has great potential there developing technologies that can use hydrogen as a power source for german industry and consume there's some on such a,

grew up in the roy area tend to always want you to work on renewable energy sources like hydrogen, fuel cells. otherwise, we can use it to achieve emissions, free electricity generation on one and defy can be positive driving this hydrogen production forward. then i'll be extremely proud of myself, but software. over the next few years, the roar valley will be uniquely positioned to gain from germany's push towards hydrogen, because a lot of the infrastructure is already in place. the region will connect into a hydrogen grid, because germany can produce enough hydrogen itself. it will import it. but why the networks construction is supposed to start in 2024 p funding questions remain unsolved. still, industry insiders and politicians are upbeat that hydrogen will transform the roof valley. this view far? yeah, really does exist. simply because if it doesn't work out in the region,

then it one, but anywhere else in europe or in germany. and i believe that all actors are aware of the kind of exemplary character. we have 4 page contracts to offer but not everyone moved when in the transition. you know, recent wage settlement to steal workers of work with cook driven, if of cold are seeing their working hours in wages decline. but experts say the hydrogen boom will bring thousands of new jobs and preserve manufacturing jobs that already exist in the roar valley. we expect that the labor market will pick up in these existing industrial areas rather than in the generation of renewable energy itself. and then germany is still in the process of quitting cold and the war region is still struggling with at least 50 years of transition. other regions that need to do the same, a struggle to the plastic or the seat of the you. what many regions probably don't

have is the drive the power and also the financial resources and all of this, it costs a lot of money. that's for sure. it's difficult to say for sure how much the transition away from coal will cost germany's war region in the end. but it's safe to say that the transition will cost many billions of yours a never ending battle. employees are fighting for their rights for better working conditions and more money. employers are taking a critical view and are reluctance to give it. show talk, sales employees will strength, a legitimate tool, but one that can bring daily life to a stand. so why do workers go on strike? all the wheels shell stand still, if you're mighty arm will say,

this battle song of the german labor movement from 18. 63 is still considered a call to strike today. and strikes are the trade unions most powerful weapon worldwide weather dock workers in london or miners in the room valley made a writers in paris general strikers in india or creative workers in hollywood. the game is always to fight for higher wages and better working or living conditions. when employees go on strike, they stop work temporarily. strikes are organized by labor unions. are these organizations represent workers and negotiate collective bargains with employers? there's no agreement has reached despite attempts at mediation, a strike is called at least 75 percent of workers must vote in favor of a striking, a balance in order to be allowed to go on strike. this can be very expensive for employers to all though they pay no wages when worker strikes. they can neither

produce anything nor earn anything. unions pay employees or union members strike pay. this helps them cope with the loss of pay and endure the strike for quite a long time. the strike on the ends once a new offer has been made and 25 percent of employees agree to with labor disputes happened repeatedly around the world, but the willingness to strike varies greatly, as can be seen in the number of days that workers go on strike between 20122021 belgium loss, the most work days per $1000.00 employees each year with $96.00 followed closely by france. then comes canada with 78 denmark with 53 and finland was 48. germany is far behind with just 18 days. strikes here

are also increasingly met with a lack of understanding, such as when buses, trains, or airplanes come to a standstill. even so many c strikes is necessary to represent the interest of workers in labor disputes. the planet earth is suffering tremendously from human caused environmental pollution. what can be done? a lot of money is being spent on new technologies to combat climate change and make the planet more resilient. but will that be enough? can and do companies really wants to get involved? or is it already too late? from flexible solar panels to making energy. while you walk, there is no shortage of ideas to help save our ailing planet. what we really want to do is that we face energy for the customers and there is no shortage of

investment either. this is the most interesting opportunity in the coming decades. $1.00 trillion dollars is expected to be invested this year in clean tech. the sector that sprung up to reduce our carbon emissions. but can these businesses really, really shape the future? this very good question. so yes, i decide every day to work. this is much use margins and he told us about his green business, a german company that's created clean tech software. the app helps people switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy, and it allows them to monitor how much electricity they're using and when to use their devices to help save on their bills it can get cheaper, but it's a lot of fun for instance. and then it can also get more expensive and we want to shift the customer consumption to those times when is actually cheap. mathias is one of the thousands of new entrepreneurs that are drawn to clean check for clean

technology, new products that we need if were to help save our planet. this is the norm as privilege to be here on earth today. to join in signing this historic agreement, global leaders signed an agreement to limit global warming to a level in which we'd still be able to live comfortably and have thriving nature. the, the target is $1.00 degrees and the deal done was called the powers agreement. the then came a commitment from e, you states the european reading deal is for the climate, but it's also for the people by 2050. they've pledged to remove the same amount of carbon emissions from the atmosphere as they put in. but a seismic shift in how we consume energy came last year with the russian invasion of ukraine. countries scramble to find other sources of oil besides russia. and

they backed the long game, investing in green energy supplies. the next story this morning, then in the same year, the us made great strides with it's inflation reduction act. as far as the biggest step forward on climate ever, ever. it's got an interesting name for a climate to build. it does the job, right? and a few other jobs and it will finance a lot of new experiments that hopefully will mean great positive change for society that you're in. honda is talking about the move by jo baggins and ministration. it includes around $369000000000.00 for the climate like tax credits for clean tech. we invest across the 3 domains, africa, climate, and ocean. all these domains will have a climate angle to them. that's because we recognize that as the most important challenge of our time, but then also the most profitable to fix. so we've gone from something like

$200000000000.00 being spent in 2010 to $1.00 trillion dollars. expect this? scott rossi is a crime, a journalist and writer most of the money that is being spent is being spent on renewable energy deployment. so, so that's on. so know when and overall the gap between what needs to be spent now, which is 1.8 trillion versus what needs to be spent to stay on. net 0 is about 4 and half, 3. not enough to stop the planet from slipping into further climate. chaos and a huge gap in investment that regional powers are all too aware of. yes, yes. so the current wings are being built and lauren eat well is the head of a project called wind wings, sales for ships? the sales work as an auxilary power source? lawrence says that on average, the sales save on a vessels fuel usage by 3 tons per day. the sales were designed by naval architects

based in the u. k, and are made in china. and so our main supply chain is china, but the minute is and die is that's been really great for actually getting a competitive price products to the market. and despite widespread climate agreement, the use policies have caught up largely our problems. and i say r as in the, as in europe in the world, they are political, they're not technological. we have the technology to do the things we want to do. it's a matter of priorities. and so if we prioritize differently, we're going to be just fine. the question is, if we will certainly a good question for europe. april need additional investments of more than $670000000000.00 a year to meet its clean tech energy goals. public money won't be enough. take wind wings to get their product to market. they secured investments from the he you and

from the largest privately health company in the us. cargill, the going back to the original question for clean tech companies to really re shaped the scenes. there was no doubt still of funding deficit. it's a short fall that's having a negative effect on change due for to keep our crime and commitment. we'll need to invest $4.00 trillion dollars annually by the early 20 thirties. because for now, the security of our planet and the clean tech effect are quite a distance away generating electricity from the sun is a highly competitive business worldwide. energy prices are climbing higher and higher. so solar power systems are in demand like never before. but most of them

over 90 percent come from china that can be manufactured. they're far less expensively. but how about the quality to the system deliver? what was promised. the there is a fierce battle for market share in the solar industry. world wide. government subsidies are critical group us tony nick is used to work as a baker from intensive training course to change careers and now install solar power systems. the pay is great and there is no shortage of work. solar panels are cheaper than they've been in the long time. and now the numerous tax hurdles have been eliminated, such as the value added tax. it makes sense to always include them in new house plans you know, to avoid people. one renewable energy because electricity prices are skyrocketing,

they want renewable energy and solar and then a business that's assuming people are buying it. so of course, it's going to continue to buy that. germany has seen more solar systems installed in the past year than ever before. solar energy already supplies around 12 percent of the countries like tricity needs, and what consumers are benefiting from the boom. there is a downside. around 90 percent of solar panels are imported from china. does that bother consumers? the main thing is that it looks nice and it has to work a thought. secondly, if 90 percent of solar panels come from china, it's important to know how durable the products are. test done by to vineland indicates that china is products meet the minimum technical requirements if i could just kind of wanted to show you that it makes no difference whether the panels originated from a country in the far east or from the european or american continental economy.

punch and install meyer burger is one of the few solar panel manufacturers in germany that can survive the tough competition from chinese suppliers. the production manager attributes that to the latest technology in the factory. however, it's not the latest technology that counts in the industry, but who offers the most states subsidies. and that's china. you know, they can produce more cheaply in asia or in any other countries. and they can hear in this factory, which is, but the subsidies artificially distorts the market, which means that buying from us doesn't end up being is economical english or spanish. so the reason was this thread, my a broder is now feeling the consequences and wants to close the german factory with 500 employees. they are also building a new production facility in the us with the help of a us government subsidy of 30 percent. the bottom line,

that means even less domestic panel production enter x and regensburg only install solar panels made in germany. the company wants to move away from chinese products . it believes the installation of domestic products should even be subsidized by the states. will then do it obviously, if we want to have production sites in germany long term, we also have to sell german products for king purely a trading country is very short term thinking and making an energy transition solely based on foreign product is very short sighted in my view, one of the stick, what's listed, what can be done. on the one hand, there's china with its huge production facilities and price dumping on the other. the us as tempting companies with tax breaks hundreds by year trade barriers or increasing tire of some similar isolationist measures, will not help us to build internationally competitive factories. instead, we need political support for the startup phase of internationally competitive and much larger solar fact. without tax money from the you are berlin,

there will obviously be no restart for the european and german solar industry. the race for solar energy is entering the next round worldwide. the . there was a fierce debate in germany before the new canada, as bob has passed. now possession and consumption of small quantities are no longer punishable for adults age. 18 and over countless company of the screen got to participate in the new legal cannabis trade. other countries took this step much earlier in thailand for example, where we've visited a cannabis farm. young entrepreneur has set up her own cultivation business that has really taken off. well, that's why i was so afraid to grow my 1st cannabis crowd. i worked all day and night. i gave it my everything problem and i had a great vision for cannabis. but i felt stuff due to people's preconceptions up at

1st they wondered if i was an addict, it motivated me to prove myself an addict, couldn't achieve these crazy feats. mm hm. and when we were one of the 1st farms permitted to grow medical cannabis at all of our main clients include government departments that distribute medical canada's products to cancer patients. funny, hi, my name is young one, nero in doing i'm 27. that's when i'm the vice president of russian farm community enterprise. the highest interest on the goal of a community enterprise is to create opportunities and stimulate income in a local area. and it wouldn't be a lot of that i need i died. and that is, for example,

on my farm. we have 20 employees mine and they're all locals from this area. were like a family here. we've been through the consent all for when we started holding seminars . the farm attracted a lot of outside interest that people were eating at restaurants, staying in hotels, and just stimulating activity in a generally quiet area to inform people i'm not hung up. i don't think this starting over is a scary thing. limitations when i was in college, my family had a financial crisis. couple i had to move out and had to pay my tuition and expenses for my family. how to get that piece up tonight. after i was 18, i stopped being financially dependent on my family. and i learned in income doing different things like freelancing and event organizing on a family. and i was also still going to school that i hadn't even lived half of my

life from now, if i were to give up in my life, would be over the phone with inside the home when thailand legalized kind of is i decided to take the plunge and start growing palm because time people are always good with agriculture and in good faith that tell us that we just haven't master discipline to me. time it might take someone from my generation to develop the knowledge and pass it on to local, monet for you. okay. how about the left, the 1st couple of years were very tough. like on the 1st it was just a small and simple mellon farm on a switch from growing mellon to canada is 4 years ago. the one you said, uh huh. we 1st had empty greenhouse and me and i live in logan. how about

a month before 8 am. i had to open all of the doors. i come from. then i checked the lights and prepared clones lights on. at that time, there were $600.00 plants and it took more than 4 hours just to water them, and then we didn't have a watering system. i only had a few people helping with us. i was done around midnight and then i handled documents at home on these all around to am. i had to check the lights, people them. i did this for 2 years and it was very stressful. having moved from the capital to a quiet rural area, i had to sleep alone on the farm and i had to fight for everything. and it's like it's like, but i never thought about getting up to doing this for a while. i started trying more techniques from overseas. then i kept on doing more research. it started with only 800 square meters. so i took a light. now is it expands to 3 phases. it'll become 3200 square meters. so me from

not knowing anything at 1st defined its success. i've never stopped trying the figure it out. i had meningitis last year. since i've been growing cannabis and i was open to using it for my house and going up i got a whole table name. i couldn't the music's not like it sure to my sickness, but it helped a lot with my recovery couldn't 1st and clearly my sleep and they couldn't. and on the sleeping is a great way to let your body recover. it also helped with my anxiety because i'm worried that i wouldn't fully recover what i'm tied up and i'm able to be or yeah, hold on, but please keep an open mind. the world keeps moving forward and we must keep moving along with it. and by the night, oh, i love what is the key to success to everyone has their own have. it's a matter of finding your own way and giving it all you've got. if you don't have many things that's set for this week's edition, have made

a major transformation in the form. our coal mining area of the coal is out and new ideas are needed. the energy transition is necessary, expensive or not, for without it, climate change will be stopped. thanks for watching and check us out on our website . by the
