a dr. watson. so kind of bits of color really makes it well to back to place. oh, it has an impact on people. ali says the and his colleagues a certain that when people ask them to paint us assaults, it's always about more than just spots on the surface. a good sense. every hole, every crack in these walls stands for a tragic memory. turning the bullet holes into flowers sends out a message that you can move forward and leave the bad days behind. and this city has seen too many bob days. 5 years ago in 2019 ali was just a demonstration and creative best me
2:33 am
a role. one of his 1st to my t was an appeal to the rest of the world. i created the mural in order to s united nations to do something for us, more authentic woman. so at that time there were un observers in the city who put it 1st. they didn't really do much. my painting criticize that, and it got a lot of attention and something changed. so the artwork was effective. we'll put them in the in the meantime, many more murals like this one have sprung up all those of us dots, ollie's color full. well, the no question about the drop city has become more vibrant off can change people's lives. now certainly for those who created often also in spite of the people who live around
2:34 am
the, the collective has become popular. especially women who are often invisible in the rocks. conservative society have an opportunity to put the idea is out that anyone and everyone can join it. so how does line do money? well, i'm a house wife. i don't have a degree, but i love to paint it how to set up on a some must have flooded as well as the i got in touch with the group. and ali said, just come along. i want to beautify my home and bring more color into our streets. that's what we will encourage us to keep going. it will help us feel a life that helps me to not be street in the city center. the pool of out of office and created it was shut down for yes. when terrorist attacks kept locked out in time or you know, the streets is 20 thing again,

even his daily life in iraq remains difficult. inflation and the economic crisis simple so effectively. but the artist, to finance his collective 3 commissions and small donations, refuses to be discouraged. here he keeps drawing lessons in a nearby cock. he wants to inspire people. he believes a pencil. oh, frustrated, come, help change the world. just like the flip to the butterflies wings. yeah, it's a hard rock you almost. and the butterfly effect is the scientific term. my theory . every word, every deed, no more, no matter how small and simple has an effect. until the end of time, i must have been, it's a good deed. something can grow effect last and i a zone. that's why we chose this name and put it back in the alpha districts alejandra schemes finish them euro within a few hours, the residents are impressed. that is now one painting richer,

but the mission to make the city more colorful will continue the so a lot today, the turing temperatures droughts move, discuss the to in brazil has been hauled changed by climate change. mostly shortages are an issue even in the amazon. and that's how they knock on effects elsewhere. it may not look like it, but this is the world's largest tropical whitland. usually green and lush at this time of year. large parts of the content in brazil had been reduced to ashes. after months of drought, this dried vegetation has turned into the perfect fuel for wild fires. it's normal for the pantano to have rainy periods where the whitland floods and dr. periods
2:37 am
were blaze of spread. but this year, the wildfire started earlier and with much more fury firefighters. jose francisco morales says it's one of the worst dry periods in his career funds on the continental, urgently needs rain to see. otherwise, we're going to see one of the worst drugs ever and will have to fight a lot more wildfires in for this day. hundreds of firefighters are working hard to contain the situation. some even came from other parts of brazil and neighboring bolivia. they don't want to repeat of 2020 back then about a 3rd of the content of vegetation burned down. 17000000 vertebrate animals were killed and many more injured. but the 1st half of 2024 is off to a bad start. there were many more blazes been in the same period last year to prevent the flames from spreading, the firefighters cut a swath through the undergrowth. but much of the ground is pete, meaning fires can continue for days under their feet unnoticed. and at the same
2:38 am
time, they have to fight strong winds towards you. today, the wind already turned around a $101.00 degrees. so we're fighting hard. assume the wind will change again. and every time it changes, when he did a different strategy to stop the engine, because these fires are largely started by people burning trash clearing undergrowth and even smoking cigarettes. usually they would be naturally contained by the flooded areas this time of year. but there are several factors that have been making the woodland flammable unseasonably early. one is a natural phenomena in el nino, the water and the pacific is unusually warm as a result with dramatic consequences. in many regions in the pantano lake made conditions hotter and dryer. then there are the effects of human made climate change, which are also making their content on more vulnerable to drought and increasing ramping deforestation in brazil is having an even more dramatic effect. you put
2:39 am
that work up a single punch analysis, suffering from a lack of water is because there is less rain coming from the amazon due to deforestation. there was one and there is less water in the rivers because of deforestation in a so rod, our regions were called the goods month. i mean to, to say how the water for the pantano actually comes from the amazon rain forest. some of the water that evaporates there normally drift south and cloud form over the set out of bush savannah to the pontoon, not where then rains. but as large areas of the amazon get the forest it, there are fewer trees to recycle water into the air. the landscape is drawing out was vague, just let us go to the wind. continue blowing these, but they take a smaller quantity of humidity with them. and that reduces the volume of rain generated in other regions that puts the punch and all at a disadvantage on these, the little guys are open to notes as in addition to the amazon rain forest, the trees of the ascent otto are also vital for the survival of the content on
2:40 am
their roots store the rain and slowly release it into the rivers that flow into the pond on, on. if the trees disappear there too, it will have an impact on rivers such as the view of public was an important tributary. at the moment it's about 2 meters too low, but just high enough to protect 0 that those centers as land from the fire. i built a lot, look how it burned on the other side. the fire reached the shore of the river, didn't come close because it made me nervous, but i heard the crackling such, but that was this that i even though she is safe now, she's having a hard time staying optimistic. because over the years she's had to watch her land become dryer and dryer as ever bigger fires consume this unique landscape. oh, exams that, that existing as a long time ago my grandfather told me, i won't live to see you, but you will. the world will end in fire and that's what i'm seeing now. as i'm 54 years old, clearly as now,
2:41 am
everything is burning. the roughly 10 percent of a global carbon emissions stem from the text on industry. it's also incredibly resource intensive. guzzling up some 90000000000 cubic meters of water annually. that's 4 percent of global fresh water usage. unload the water goes into producing all case, almost always diesel, but he does go through heavy heavy, the chemical processes to make them the way they are today. whether it's finishing, whether it's dying, brianca, qana collaborates with brands and produces to foster sustainable innovation and fashion, which is why it is mostly not even the nation, but does andre di biodegradable. and it takes sometimes over 200 years for these materials to buy it as a degraded industrial. and that's
2:42 am
a big problem because we produce a lot of textile waste. in the us, tex always has grown 80 percent since the year 2000. rachel keeps even stuck in a service, is great, which supports industry and government and reaching sustainability goals. it is our fastest growing waste stream. we send over $30000000000.00 pounds of tech styles to landfill every year in the us alone. most of our old clothes and in landfill, what doesn't, is frequently bend on sold stock and donated ok. think of frequently shipped to the global south for resale, such as here in a crowd, county with 40 percent of what arrives is actually considered trash. the us and say the 600000000 key, those of use closing abroad every year, largely to the rest of the americas. while you are pick sports, i have a one and a half 1000000000 kilos. much it to us again. often it is dumped. bend all pollutes
2:43 am
oceans and waterways. tech style waste isn't just old. well warm toes. it also includes excess stock and the scraps generated during production. less than one percent of this video that's expected today, which means all of this is going somewhere. when we collect close there, primarily going to be sorted for reuse, that's the highest value. some of those plus may be down cycled into insulation. some may be sold as wiper rags and then a small portion can be mechanically recycled. but mechanical recycling has its limitations. in 2020 full mechanical recycling is the best option. we have close of chops up and spun into a new 5. it's, it's way back to the landfills but also involves a drop in quantity. and it's read that such materials can be recycled again. but the could soon change, there are a bunch of exciting new recycling companies posting new technology and hoping to
2:44 am
taylor in the future for textile waste. firstly, those chemical recycling, why textiles are broken down to the molecular level and then be built into various materials. while some companies only recycle caution, australia is blocked, techs can recycle blended material, chemically separating synthetic polyester from natural costs. and 5 is polyester is converted into pellets which can be used for textiles, orders, materials, and construction. while cotton, cellulose is turned into clay, as uses in textiles, agriculture and even packaging. the flexibility is intentional. i would never want to be beholden from my outtakes just to one brand, because i know how badly those those brands can behave. patriot and jones co founded blog techs in 2018 we prefer low techs to have it takes that can be useful to many robs and just be useful to want. i think that's been
2:45 am
a real difference for us in the industry. everybody's is preoccupied with making more textiles. block text recently announced it with expands capacity to $10000.00 tons a year. refresh global invalid also emphasizes flexibility. g a back to ya breakdown and sanitize tech style waste. creating 3 role materials. not a set of those eval on sanitized. tex stone. pope 3 refresh cables. potent is these materials i used to make anything ranging from furniture to bike frames, to ethanol based cosmetics. refresh. global is a relatively new company plans to develop a network of smaller facilities that can be developed quickly and flexibly with partners. that's quite different to sweden's renew. so one of the world's biggest chemical tech style recyclers. it was among the fist to build an industrial scale
2:46 am
tech style recycling facility. cotton tech styles shredded into a slurry, separated from contaminants and dried into sheets of what they call secular circular settlers, which can replace the g materials like cotton oil would in the production of new high quality textiles. going down to the molecular level helps maintain quality. i'm a new cell says it's secular, those can be recycled. 7 times. there are limits, the new cell can know you recycle waste. this 95 percent of costs are no pure, meaning a lot of what goes to landfill isn't eligible for new cells. recycling plant opened in 2022 with capacity to recycle 60000 tons annually written to expands to 820000. but in february 2020 full came to show the company filed for bankruptcy just days before. and when you sell, told the w, they were recycling fall below capacity and fashion brands were hesitant to commit
2:47 am
to recycle materials. we could be producing a lot more, trisha carries the chief commercial officer in new so many of the brands have goals search for circularity, reduction, traceability waterfalls. uh, you know, variety. so it's, we are a solution to their goals. it's how quickly do they want to be able to achieve those renew, sell partnered with levi's to recycle production waste and include 2nd ice in the products h and then became a shareholder in 2017. but still, the plant didn't make a profit and it's 1st year. it has been something that has show. most of us work in us has been a relative fixed size. theresa dominic reset to sustainability management, and then t. c. l universities, existing business models in which most of fashion brands are messed it,
2:48 am
they don't really have 40 initiatives night renew. so the did really while did $380.00 to be able to to make a while recycling costs reliance on both the hungry cotton and oil based and tactics. it's more expensive. it would take some 7000000000 year rates to scale up recycling to hit 20 percent of textile wasted us by 2013. there isn't enough push from the legislation side to force the industry to actually adopt these materials. so not the investigation required for thing, but if it's going to be more expensive material, if it's a transition with the houses up to supplies, the thing in nature with all the brands they decided across the board, it really does is a function of information. so have them having access to everything, which is not easily done until legislastion usually takes it on. the u. s. monday
2:49 am
to stop by 2025 member countries begin collecting checks don't waste separately. just like they do with paper. plastic involves which should improve on the 20 to descend waste. this car would be separated during proposed legislation in the u. s . e. u is in some modeling a no requiring produces to pay for the processing of that text on waste. and we have to ensure that these laws don't just charge the producers for one portion of that puzzle. like just collection. it has to also facilitate the infrastructure for both reuse and recycling and the innovation around that right now, recycling isn't profitable, stays active. so set the tone by adopting tockets themselves, but us to be successful as a result of that, we have to have committee that takes and that's where governments and private enterprise has a role to apply. in saying, the government,
2:50 am
the checked is very large procures of products. meanwhile, swedish recycling renew, so has phone to buy a private equity investor, alto has both top the companies remaining assets, also invested in industries that helped to reduce carbon emissions. text though recycling is one of them. the company is now to be renamed suck, you know, it's like it's fine. but despite the progress in textile recycling, there's still more to be done. recycling is the only one part of the problem of a current consumption backend. of cannot continue if you want to move to what is the most sustainable of industry. there is a huge amount of, of production in the industry and to whoever is responsible for the it's just a lot of the debated on that. bottom line is that it will production needs to, to reduced the 100000000000 governments. we produce each year,
2:51 am
means 14 for every person in the world. if we couldn't convince function victims to stop buying the body weight, including at least we can ensure that as much as possible of what they purchase is recycled. the changes underway include div y and previously unimagined opportunities are turning the labor market upside down. linda m o $200.00, for example. never thought she'd be working on a fly farm stuff on covina set up his own business for years ago in urban agriculture. and even the phone is learning to set up carbon projects in the forest of the interior of the country. as part of a pioneering project in cookie, why? what did these 3 young people have in common? they're all working in the green economy as part of the country's ecological
2:52 am
transition. when linda 1st started at the fly farm, her days were difficult. she hated being around the maggots and flies that are bred for animal feed. to dick i'm saying ever, i was so afraid i didn't want the flies to touch me. i said it was going to wear long sleeves. but the hardest part for linda was dealing with her family's prejudice about the unusual profession she had chosen to see they said it was bound to affect my health. the maggots are a dirty thing that everything we do here is practically nothing but dirt to disclose. since we use waste, it was a bit difficult at 1st. they didn't really accepted that i said that instead of staying at home and being a burden says it's better for me to learn and discover something new. because this was in today, the young woman is proud to call herself an interim ologist and is even convinced
2:53 am
her mother to join the company. stefan covina also dared to make a new green start. after studying geography, he couldn't find a job. so he began offering horticultural courses to individuals and schools at the, on all our advisory job, he set up his own business to cell phone. is there me personally, it was a way of not depending on the traditional employment system in court as well, which is you leave school and you look for a job in the public sector. there was a way of showing that you can create your own job and be financially independent. why, you know who called to them. she also, i've been, you know, little deaf on and linda are on a green career path. but they are still in the minority with many green job opportunities going on, claimed the ivory and government is keen to entice more school leavers in the green jobs are not what you might call sub jobs. maybe it's this aspect that we
2:54 am
don't manage to make clear enough to those looking for work on not as a new put on, and i to stick to should so that well, my direct them towards great jobs to do many refusal because they think there are many jobs going and seems, but they're actually normal jobs, so this was on, this was on the block. so there's upfront this loan in 2020 to the ministry launch . it's integrated strategy for the promotion of green jobs and cookies. why? in an attempt to promote these sectors, even the full has come all the way from europe for this. the 26 year old wants to learn how to carry out a forest inventory and cookie, why. she's currently being assisted by an experienced agricultural scientist. and so i see the aim is to calculate the forest c o 2 uptake the fluids and mississippi. this is obviously still do shows things. i've never done
2:55 am
a forest inventory before. it's all new to me. i've never done this kind of studies bitching. so we need to have work together, i'm wondering the quinn is so i know all about carbon. you can the carbon market. if i just would not at all about the field we're going to have. so we really need to work hand in hand to achieve our goal. and most of the stuff on also wants to raise awareness of the green economy, but it will be 80 kilometers from be john. he wants his expertise to benefit people in smaller towns as well. well, what i've done is i've been on by the men's of the people who live in the interior over the country. you do not have the same opportunities as the people, and i'll be john. couple more samples. that's why i think it's important to create a new ecosystem in my area to gives them access to employment that's beneficial to their environment. right here, beside it on your, on the green economy include the wire, is giving young people the chance to work towards
