8:32 pm
so kind of bits of color really makes a well to back to place. oh, it has an impact on people. ali says he and his colleagues a certain that when people ask them to paint us assaults, it's always about more than just what's on the surface. a good sense. every hole, every crack in these walls stands for a tragic memory. but turning the bullet holes into flowers sends out a message that you can move forward and leave the bad days behind them. and the city has seen too many birthdays. 5 years ago in 2019 ali was just a demonstration in creative best mural. one of his 1st the motif was an appeal to
8:33 pm
the rest of the world. i created the mural in order to as united nation is to do something for us. but also the moment 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 was recommended by this. in the meantime, many more murals like this one have sprung up full legs about dots, ollie's color, full. well, the no question about the, the drop city has become more vibrant outcome change people's lives, necessarily for those who created often also in spite of the people who live around the collective has become popular. especially women who are often invisible in

iraq's conservative society, have an opportunity to put the idea is out that anyone and everyone can join it, show how don't want your money. well, i'm a housewife. i don't have a degree, but i love to paint it how to set up on a some mazda file, as well as the i got in touch with the group in ali said, just come along. i want to beautify my home and bring more color into our streets. that's what will encourage us to keep going. it will help us feel a life. because the health i need to now be street in the city center, the boulevard of artists and creatives. it was shut down for yes, when terrorist attacks kept locked out in time or you know, the streets is twice and again, even his daily life in iraq remains difficult. inflation and the economic crisis
8:35 pm
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 the butterfly effect is 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 such a good deed. something can grow the effect last in the zoo, and 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,
8:36 pm
the turing temperatures droughts move, discuss the t. brazil has been halted 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 country, not 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 were blaze of spread, but this year the wildfire started earlier and with much more fury,
8:37 pm
firefighters. jose francisco morales says it's one of the worst dry periods in his career. one final, 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 wildfire soon for their size. 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 down 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 time, they have to fight strong winds towards you. today,
8:38 pm
the wind already turned around a $101.00 degrees. so we're fighting hard. soon the wind will change again, and every time it changes, we need a different strategy to stop the engine of cosmic, 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 and seasonally 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 punt knowledge made conditions hotter and dryer. then there are the effects of human made climate change, which are also making the content more vulnerable to drought and increasing ramping deforestation in brazil is having an even more dramatic effect. you put that work up a single punch analysis, suffering from
8:39 pm
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 serrato regions 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 deforested, there are fewer trees to recycle water into the air. the landscape is drawing out vague, just let us go to the winds, 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 will open panel. in addition to the amazon rain forest, the trees of the san ardo are also vital for the survival of the content on their roots. store the rain and slowly release it into the rivers that flow into the
8:40 pm
content 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 village those santos. 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 as such, but that was this, that i or even though she is saved 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, how could i assist you? not 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, everything is burning. the
8:41 pm
roughly 10 percent of the global carbon emissions stand 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 cannot collaborates with brands and produces to foster sustainable innovation in fashion, which is why it is mostly not even the nation but do, does andre di biodegradable and it takes sometimes over 200 years for these materials to buy it as a degrade in the industrial and that's a big problem because we produce a lot of textile waste. in the us,
8:42 pm
tex always has grown 80 percent since the year 2000. rachel keeps even secular services, great, which supports industry and government and reaching sustainability goals is our fastest growing waste stream. we send over 30000000000 pounds of textiles 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 americans. while you are a big sports, i have a one and a half 1000000000 kilos, much it to us again. often it is dumped, bend old, pollutes oceans and waterways. tech style waste isn't just old. well warm toes. it
8:43 pm
also includes excess stock and the scripts generated during production. less than one percent of this video. that's the spiker 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 new 5 bits. is 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 tailor up in the future for textile waste. firstly,
8:44 pm
those chemical recycling tech styles of 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. i can be useful to many robs and just be useful to wants. i think that's been a real difference for us in the industry. everybody's is preoccupied with making
8:45 pm
more textiles blocked texts. recently announced it with expands capacity to $10000.00 tons a year. refresh global invalid also emphasizes flexibility. good luck to you. breakdown and sanitize tech style waste. creating 3 role materials, not a set of those eval on sanitized. tex stone. pope 3 refresh cables. pub is these materials i used to make anything ranging from furniture to bike frames, to fml 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 tech style recycling facility. cotton tech styles shredded into a slurry,
8:46 pm
separated from contaminants and dried into sheets of what they call secular. secular settlers, which can replace virgin 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 cycles 7 times their own 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. okay, michelle, can 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 to recycle materials. we could be producing
8:47 pm
a lot more tricia carries the chief commercial officer knew 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 and the products h and then became a shareholder in 2017. but still, the plant didn't make a profit in its 1st year. it has been something that has shown most of us work in us has been a relative fixed task. theresa dominic research to sustainability management, and then t. c. l universities, existing business models in which most of fashion brands are messed it, they don't really have 40 initiatives night renew. so the did really while
8:48 pm
did to really be able to, to make a while recycling costs reliance on both the hungry cotton and oil based and statics. 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 decline and forcing, 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 to stop by 2025 member countries begin collecting checks don't waste separately
8:49 pm
just like they do with paper, plastic dos, which should improve on the 20 to the center waste. this car would be separate during proposed legislation and the u. s. e u isms are mulling a little 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 it's 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, the chicks is very large procures of products. meanwhile, swedish recycling renew,
8:50 pm
so has phone to buy a private equity investor, alto has bought top that 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 fiber, but despite the progress in text or 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 of the city but of industrial. there is a huge amount of, of production in the industry and to whoever is responsible for it. there's a lot of debate around that. bottom line is that a will production needs to, to reduced the 100000000000 governments. we produce each, it means volt teams that every person in the world. if we come and convince
8:51 pm
function victims to stop buying the body weight in clothing, at least we can ensure that as much as possible of what they purchase is recycled. the changes underway include the blocks 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, at 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 transition. when linda 1st started at the fly farm,
8:52 pm
her days were difficult. she hated being around the maggots and flies that are bred for animal feed. to dick, i'm send you over, but 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 enough. i said that instead of staying at home and being a burden says it's better for me to learn and discover something new. today the young woman is proud to call herself an interim ologist and is even convinced her mother to join the company. different covina also dared to make
8:53 pm
a new green start. after studying geography, he couldn't find a job. so he began offering horticulture courses to individuals and schools at the, on all our advisory job, he set up his own business after 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 while you're on the call to them. and 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 prophets. and so by the great jobs are not what you might call sub jobs. maybe it's this aspect that we don't manage to make clear enough to those looking for work on
8:54 pm
not in a new vehicle, but on a to speak to should so that well my direct them towards green jobs to do many refuse on this 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 mississippi. this is obviously still do shows things i've never done to forest inventory before. it's all new to me. i've never done this kind of studies bitching. so we need to have
8:55 pm
work together. i'm wondering the quinn is all i know all about carbon in 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 which 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 people who live in the interior of 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. like you saw it on your, on the green economy include the wire is giving young people the chance to work towards a better future. the,
