sure. electronic waves or even cannabis. that's a tough act to follow. moving towards more sustainable vehicle reduction for instance, with a race car made from used to electronics. the britons and vision racing to face their vehicle, recover e on the race car with which they've competed for years in the international, fully electric racing series formula. ye yes. easy you the pet phone? the form of that you provide me zip at home and to talk about because or you could interesting subjects. and one of them easy ways to which has been the identified as a, as a teen going sweats over 80 percent of the world's electronic waste winds. up on the scrap, the african countries in particular are often misused as dumping grounds for waste

from highly industrialized nations. by the year 2030, it's thought that our planet will be littered with $82000000.00 tons of the waste wasted. these are the very important and precious and valuable materials. so when your, when we all, when we have better using the landfill lens on these up for the materials that can fit on the grades to be left in the environment. particularly these materials could be used to make new battery is on new equipment. it's all that it was an accelerated position to electric, would be together with the and vision team. british artist liam hopkins has built a vehicle that's made of e waste. out of old laptops, batteries, game consoles, cell phones, chargers, cds, and e cigarettes. the innovative designer from manchester has created

a spectacular formula erase or it's wanting to impress for diesel took about the subject, and that's okay. but you should have something very visual and how you striking to, to cats need to change people and gets the attention keeps a piece of off, you know, it's me, it's mixing the mid senior, often sides to achieve this hardest, liam hopkins worked closely with the invasion racing teams technicians, they help to ensure that the car produced with the waste is now making the rounds that formulas the supporting events. they now clause, here's how each year 40000000 spectators follow formula e and it's related activities recover e as in just being shown off at the race track. it's taken to the stage at the un climate change conference in dubai. and the world economic forum in davos. the

recovery projects taught his team how to make cars more sustainably and use recycling more effectively. building bridges between art, science and motor sports opened up a world of new opportunities. recovery car made from electronic waste is gearing up to win the race against climate change. the this 40 to seat are also a must healthy environment. it's mostly made from plastic waste that students built a bright yellow, fun car out of recycled plastic. we use a whole different kind of waste and also recycled a waste, but mostly on sorted waste as well. the car is basic materials plastic that's been

fished out of the ocean, plastic from old household appliances and toys. and every day household waste the student showed that it's possible to transform trash into material suitable for car construction. at the, i know of in university of technology in the netherlands, teams of students regularly come together to dream up brand new mobility concepts. it's a huge challenge. the student started off with a blank sheet of paper with open minds and a lot of imagination. they got down to work reinventing the automobile with a focus on sustainability. after weeks of effort, they devise the concept for a car called luca. and the process they developed brand new construction materials like a sandwich panel, who's outer layers or a mix of flux fibers that are uncovered. ocean plastic gets core is made from

recycled p t. the material is strong enough to construct the car shots the way that the body parts are formed out of recycled abs. hard plastic used in many consumer goods including children, stores inside the results of a newly developed chemical process can be seen. it transforms household waves like beer cans and banana peels into a robust construction material. under the hood, lucas sports uh, 6 pack an electric drive train with swath of all batteries there most 6 moment or i can easily be swapped. um for full. that's for example, if your batteries mc, just the sporty car weighs just 360 kilograms and can hit 90 kilometers an hour. while it's not likely to go into production any time soon. the students receive

high praise from their professors. they have this unique talent to come up with very strange ideas. and we know that the breakthrough of tomorrow is the strange idea of yesterday yesterday. so in order to change the will we, we have to start with strange ideas. luka a strange idea that just might be the future of mobility, the peers and even stranger ideas, a car made from canada. it's a plant most associated with recreational drug years. but american bruce deeds and used cannabis to build this car because he believes it's the most eco friendly way to produce vehicles. the body is made out of candidates how the car can actually be $2.00 to $3.00 times greener and a brand new electric cars. and electric cars are great. i mean, you are muskets of,

of the test. those is a huge hero for me. but quite frankly, we can, we can do much better. we have to make as much stuff as we can out of carbon negative materials. that's perhaps the biggest way that we can address the time of crisis with this project to make cars from canada as plants also known as him, he's got some big shoes to fail. to follow on where henry ford left off. his vision in 1941 was to make all cars out of plants and haven't run by plants. legendary us car maker, henry ford retained a close connection to the land. you dreamed of linking agriculture and industry, and sought to manage resources, responsibilities. so in 1941 developed a revolutionary prototype. by mounting a car body made largely from him onto a steel frame following and ford's footsteps deeds and covered a mazda sha,

see with him fabric. and with residents formed into a car body, the fiber of a candle. this plan is perhaps the strongest natural fibers of for any plants in nature. that was also a reason for henry ford to use this plan to produce automobiles. he began promoting his ham car over 80 years ago. but the way he got people's attention was kind of cool. he was a very, he always got the press, the was a real film and he would show people just how tough his cars were. and so he'd go around with a sledgehammer, right? and wouldn't leave it down like that. it's actually 10 times more dense steel cannabis as long had an unsavory reputation, because the flowers harvested from female plants can also be used as the drug known as marijuana. and that proved to be the undoing of henry ford temp car. the us

marijuana tax act of 1937 slots, an excise tax on all him sales, making it too costly for mass auto production. but times have changed. take portion for its 718 came and g g for club sports. the auto manufacturer now makes the rear spoiler and doors out of him. long shunned this sustainable light and strong material could be about to make its come back in car production, the but it's not the only material that's back on the streets. what is to the a french carpenter and be sure to hold the young built a dish of o made mostly from wood. he enjoys driving this car. that's like no other.

it's a great feeling. sure. it's different than driving a modern car. there's less technology. when dick knew he, it was the people's car and still has a future. if i still have a believe me or give us stuff, i've been, was it always or a 10 that after a few decades of uses, beloved dish of o would be eaten up by rust and dust. and for the scrapyard, people had to change that. that's the new the media i came here thousands of times with my pencil measuring stick. i meant a pad of paper, you know, to take down all the measurements and media triple bunk. took them as you using his precise drawings for the original do chef. oh, you got down to work onto an old situated shot c t mounted a frame lovingly crafted from wood. and he added wooden doors of wood, hood and fenders. dealership

that's the whole call. and it seems to last forever. that's part of the why we use would we'll say use what to be honest because it's environmental a correct sustainable and surprisingly strong as this accident footage show. little wonder that the auto industry is becoming increasingly interested in boy, which is much tougher than it's reputation. intensive research is now being conducted into the use of this material in cars at its low wage could help extend the range and the efficiency of the v maybe wouldn't cars, we'll assume no longer be a rarity on our road. at china is vehicles are also rarities ones that never fail to turn heads. the the eccentric british car constructor gives new life to old pieces of furniture while taking their places.

they've never gone before. anything is possible. i do like exploring stuff. i'm very curious about how things work and i really, really do love sort of dragging things together that shouldn't be together. right? looking to do you just have to stay a really and use the break and miss ruffle and it's very, very relax and you can have up to 7 people as passengers. so it can be very cosy as well. his creations are even street legal. some of the controls go, serial spots conventional and then you've got yeah, indicator and stuff, the alignment and the whole one as well as on here. so everything is nice and close . easy to get ahold of the i guess nobody else is really doing that. so it's quite nice to be in that strange space, but it is also about pushing the limits and then just seeing how far you can take that given mobility of boost by taking risks to i know.
