film, we will be exploring in. it makes me feel like i'm making sustainable solutions around the a difference. i also get 10% of it, globe and meeting the individuals driving change in their communities. from housing to energy in fashion, or one portion out, which is why i these are some of the unique and started using it in the first place. surprising ways in which people from volu nteers started using it in the first place. volunteers like poppy, so—called food waste heroes, collect foods all walks of life are working to that businesses would otherwise have thrown out. in the uk alone, 7 protect our planet. million tons of food and drink are thrown away each year. so, we have got white loaves. poppy in the winter, we can get waves up to 30 metres and that is a huge challenge and it's a challenge to uploads pictures of each item onto survive in those extreme forces. the the olio food sharing up. locals using the app can requested for free archipelago of normal —— orkney lies and come and collect it. it attracts and come and collect it. it attracts a wide variety of feet —— of people. in the northern isles of scotland. just finished school age people, where the north sea and the atlantic through to, like, really old people. ocean meats. it comprises about 70 elderly persons. if i wrote islands, beset by winds and gales. about 20 of the islands are something really good, like fresh

inhabited at the very location is doughnuts or something, it is literally a matter of minutes.“ people like the food they see, they one of the remote settlements in the message poppy and get her address. uk means it's an ideal place to test new forms of energy such as wave, wind and tide. wave energy is hello. are you poppy? yes. here you literally the energy in the waves go. iam but ultimately that's been driven by the wind. in orkney, because we've hello. are you poppy? yes. here you go. i am quite environmentally conscious. obviously food waste is a huge environmental problem. this is, got the full force of the atlantic like, the little bits that you can do that makes a difference. also it ocean, it is very windy, so we get lots of very big waves crashing isa against our shores. tidal energy is do that makes a difference. also it is a really nice way to meet people and feel like you are part of your local community. people are also sharing food they bought for themselves. if they no longer needed today uploaded. polish students driven by gravitational forces, where we get the biggest opportunity for tidal energy is the stream and kashais today uploaded. polish students kasha is collecting some unwanted ice cream. i think it is really thatis for tidal energy is the stream and that is concentrated around the islands of orkney and a few other crucial to fight against the food places. orkney was once dependent on waste. also, iam the scottish mainland for power but crucial to fight against the food waste. also, i am a student, so this way i get free food. so i can spend today, it fulfils its own energy £5a way i get free food. so i can spend £5 a week for my groceries. olio is needs. this tidal turbine pioneered by an orkney —based marine energy

run from this london flat by a small firm is being tested by seawater team. it has over a million users in moving its blades. technology takes a9 countries and more than 1.7 energy from sea and converts it to a million portions of food have been city. the principle behind it is shared on the app. but for the system to work, a basic human figure much like wind turbines on land. the has to be overcome. food is a really personal thing. we have built into wind turbine, the blades are being moved by the wind whereas in our the earlier app all the same checks tidal turbine, this seawater is and measures you would expect from any other sharing economy. users moving blades and turning that into have profiles, they have user ratings, any listing can be reported to us. but at the end of the day it electricity through conventional is up to you. you can choose to generators. and how much energy does request the listings that you think look nice, and from the people you wa nt to look nice, and from the people you a device like this generate? right want to share with, and you don't have to if you don't want to. people now, this turbine with the title speed we've got at the moment, which looking after the food also have to is just over speed we've got at the moment, which isjust over six speed we've got at the moment, which is just over six knots, speed we've got at the moment, which isjust over six knots, we speed we've got at the moment, which is just over six knots, we are producing 1.8 megawatts of power to be happy letting strangers into the grid. here locally, we are their home. unless they want to come and steal a lot of bagels, i'm not really worried, to be honest. ifeel charged extra for the energy we use like, if anything, really worried, to be honest. ifeel like, ifanything, it because of the system we need to really worried, to be honest. ifeel like, if anything, it means that i get to know the people in my

ta ke because of the system we need to take energy from the mainland up to community and i feel more secure. on orkney. it's the technology which changes the market and makes it a real disruption there to allow these new tech allergies to really deliver what they can for people. around the the other side of the atlantic this world, energy use remains a global challenge, which is why innovation community is also opening its doors in the energy sector is vital. we to strangers, as it embraces a bold new way of tackling the city's need to limit our energy use as we housing shortage. according to the go forward, particularly as the oregon centre for public policy, two—thirds of the state ‘s low world population continues to income renters spend more than 50% of their income on housing. there increase, the world's energy needs are going to continue to rise. orkney also has a rich we re over of their income on housing. there were over a100 people on a given archaeological heritage, so much night you were either sleeping that only a fraction has been outside in an emergency shelter or excavated. for archaeologists like in transitional housing. there are probably three times that many julie gibson, it is a race against people on any given night to our couch surfing, living in basements time. in the last 50 years, we have and garages and trying to stay housed that way. when officials here about third of our archaeological sites eroding. beautifully preserved announced plans to build small living spaces in homeowners' backyards, at no cost to the owner, and extraordinary as they are, on more than 1000 people signed up to the one hand, eroding into the sea register. four were ultimately on the other. so part of myjob is selected to be part of the pilot to try and keep an eye on these project. the test is to work with

sites to see what character they have, what we're losing. julie has four homeowners to build an a ccesso i’y four homeowners to build an accessory dwelling unit in their beenjoined by have, what we're losing. julie has backyard, where families who are been joined by doctor england homeless can live for up to five have, what we're losing. julie has yea rs. homeless can live for up to five years. and at the end of that five beenjoined by doctor england mean years. and at the end of that five —— from the —— has beenjoined by a year period of time, the homeowner gains ownership and access to that doctor to explore the middens which unit for whatever purposes they are remains of ancient domestic waste lost coastal erosion. we are desire. known as accessory dwelling sitting on the beach of dinghies units, the homes are roughly 200 square feet. homelessness is a real how. we are interested in some problem in portland. and obviously not a part of the world, too. and i archaeology. it is the remains of would of course love to contribute. but how? i couldn't donate lots of money, because i don't have lots of fish middens. it's interesting and money. but when i heard about the very important because they tell us programme, and! money. but when i heard about the programme, and i realised that i have a backyards that really isn't about behaviour in the past. from being used for anything, totally unproductive, it was just a perfect the size of the fish, it dates to fit. i saw an article in the oregonian, and then my good friend the size of the fish, it dates to the mediaeval period. this tiny place here up in the north of

scotla nd place here up in the north of scotland was part of a vibrant ream saw it online somewhere, and she emailed me and called me and said, of fish, us about wishing stocks martha, this is the perfect thing for you, this isjust what that were present in the mediaeval martha, this is the perfect thing for you, this is just what you've been looking for, you've got to period and that information is apply. so i did. cherie and surveyed releva nt for period and that information is relevant for understanding conservation practice today. this a we re apply. so i did. cherie and surveyed were homeless for eight months before moving into another‘s garden. they lived in their vehicle and in little bit of cow skull, probably shelters. it was scary at first tells us what people are eating because of the shelters, and because themselves. so this is a viking we we re because of the shelters, and because we were going from place to place.|j norse cow from a thousand years ago. feel like a millionaire. i feel like it tells us information about the i won $1 million and everything is falling into place. a home, the type past. it's about having the stability, that is what i needed for her. i like books, a lot. i have my little library of them. i can interest of scientists like ingrid finally put that somewhere where i can get it and nobody else can. in these middens. the more there is a laundromat within walking information we get, the more we can hang onto. you can't hang onto distance, great public transportation, several grocery stores, daycare, schools, and parks. ancestors but you need to know about them. it isa stores, daycare, schools, and parks. it is a really nice neighbourhood for sherry and her daughter, they approximately half of the world's oxygen is produced by the world's are a perfect fit, i think. they are

going to work out fine. we really ocean and it's the largest ecosystem on the planet. over a500 miles from get along well. the pilot project orkney, conservationists have come up orkney, conservationists have come up with a unique idea to protect took longer than expected, but if marine biodiversity, turning 2000 square metres of the caribbean into the houses i deemed a success, there a living museum. are plans for 300 more. many times i think there is this narrative that homelessness is just an intractable problem and it cannot be solved in our lifetimes. i actually disagree with us. i think the response from the community says, there is still stomach, there is still well. people just need to know how. across the world, there are people striving to provide sustainable and innovative solutions to some of our biggest challenges. high and low tech, large and small scale. they are working with more than 500 pieces of art, towards preserving the earth's this museum in the sea is the natural resources and protecting our largest underwater art installation planet. in the world. it's been done as sculptures in order to attract

tourists to relief the nearby marine park. hello there, we have seen impacts already from this unseasonal weather, and we are not finished just yet either. some more rain to come which will be quite heavy, perhaps some thundery downpours as well this weekend, and those winds are strengthening more widely now across england and wales. that's because our unusually deep area of low pressure for the time of year is drifting its way northwards, winds strengthening on its southern flank, there is more rain around overnight as well, but where the winds are lighter, later in scotland and northern ireland, there may be a few mist and fog patches. 13—1a, it's warmer further south, 16—17, with more showers, even longer spells of rain, quite a few of those in the morning

across wales and the south—west of england. a number of heavy showers developing further north, and those will be more slow—moving and more frequent as well. not too much rain for the north—west of scotland, i think it will be more towards eastern scotland later in the day that we will see some thundery downpours, and throughout the day, they are never too far away from southern scotland and also close to northern ireland as well, this line of downpours running over the irish sea into the north—west of england. further south showers more fleeting, because it will be so windy, those are the wind gusts, widespread gales for england and wales, gusts of 60 miles an hour across southern coasts. a very windy conditions, and it won't feel as warm or as muggy either, 27 east anglia yesterday, looking at low 20s at best. winds do continue to ease a little during saturday night into sunday morning, but you can see we still have some areas of rain, and again that could be heavy and thundery with the prospect of some localised flooding as well. those temperatures begin to drop away towards southern parts of the uk, typically 13—1a. this cuban so to the second half this cu ban artist 00:13:50,645 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 this cuban artist works with mercer. of the weekend, it is not completely dry, there will be some sunshine around, but we will see more showers

developing across england and wales, for a time across northern ireland, and a spot of rain is slow—moving, central and southern scotland and the far north of england, underneath that it will not be very warm at all for the time of year, 1a—15 for northern parts of the uk, 22 or 23 towards the south—east at best. an area of low pressure is pulling away on sunday, hence the winds easing down, but look what's coming in from the atlantic. all these weather fronts, another area of low pressure developing around the middle part of next week, there is no sign of summer returning really in the outlook as we head into next week, it remains very unsettled, we will get some showers or longer spells of rain, some sunshine at times but not particularly warm for the time of year.
