a neighborhood street festival in the german city of cologne for a day cause a band pedestrians and bicyclists are free to use the streets normally traffic clogs these roads and pollutes the air levels of fine particulate matter and nitrogen oxides high in downtown cologne pediatrician christiane during is trying to raise awareness of the problem. imo your kids have a cigarette often enough. disagree read made of chewing gum symbolizes the invisible danger of particular matter and not treating all sides it represents the 2 cigarettes with toxins during says cologne residents inhale every day. he sees a lot of young patients with respiratory problems in his practice. work in the us park. no fish where they are pediatric practice is located nearby in an area with
6:17 am
heavy traffic and we've observed an increase in the problems children have in the months when we get temperature inversions they start and then the polluted air is trapped alone there's an increase in respiratory irritants from traffic concert particles from coal fired power plants children get diseases that are more severe and they need longer to recover we have to prescribe more medications. it's generally accepted that fine particulate matter and nitrogen oxides pollute the air we breathe and can destroy our health the question is who is responsible. find particulates a small fragments of solid materials only could droplets suspended in the air they may contain contaminants such as sort of lead particulate matter is divided into 3
6:18 am
categories. the largest of these particles are a 10th of the width of a human hair this is the catch a great peak in 10 particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter these relatively course particles tend to stay in the respiratory tract refined matter that has particles less than $2.00 microns in diameter make up the class pm $2.00 and is small enough to penetrate the lungs culture fine particles are less than 0 point one micron in diameter and they can enter the bloodstream if i think a bag and if the particles are small enough they get into the bloodstream that's a huge problem in small children whose immune defenses are still weak there are uses to mr in training so to speak preparing for all the things that it will face later in life that's why kids generally have we commune defenses in addition and i'll show you here the long of a 12 month old child is still very very small. that's

a big problem for pediatricians in the us who have been holding. their pollution affects the most vulnerable the sick the elderly and children like me who found their this 6 year old has to use a nebulizer to thin the mucus in his lungs when the air quality in cologne tyria rights during the winter months you'll get a calm that invariably develops into bronchitis or even pneumonia in an effort to break the cycle doctors prescribe various medications and inhalations this coaster believes the main problem is the strong medications ok so i try to avoid them by treating him 1st with homeopathy and herbals and then cough syrup but we usually end up resorting to a cord as i spray about half into who's a soon as he starts coughing i tense up because i always feel that he develops this cough no matter what i do. or no what it means is that families have kids can't

6:21 am
related particulate matter is generated by brake and tire wear only 37 percent stems from engine source engines are primarily responsible for the not signs in city air less so for particulate matter. traffic generates high levels of dangerous ultra fine particles toxins adhere to their surfaces and can enter the bloodstream . in downtown cologne pediatrician christian during is vacuuming dirt off the street deposits of fine particular matter consisting of sort and rubber as well as lead barium aluminum and mercury street cleaning has long been used as a method of reducing traffic related air pollution but what christian during his doing here is merely symbolic. in that this now is not a bad year. as is our holding in this road has made a difference the substances we vacuumed out these particles are contaminated the

water so much that when we pour it in here we see that it's completely cloudy thoughts of the intruders. how damaging is particular matter to our internal organs next to the cemetery is the institute of forensic medicine of colognes university hospital. in the basement pathology lab is the work place of forensic medicine specialist marcus. here he investigates cases in which the course type or time of death is unclear. what shield can read the organs of the deceased like a book this lung is no exception. and as this is the long of a man aged around 50 who lived here in the city. if the autopsy determined that he
6:23 am
died of natural causes what we see very clearly by looking at is long that he inhaled significant quantities of particulates matter and god without. the deceased was not a smoker the pathologist can tell that from the tissue still the left lung is covered in black dots. if you can see polluted air as a residue in the lungs the shiny covering here is the palm of their employer that surrounds each lung in directly beneath the pleura you see this pattern of black dots these are carbon particles particles and it's the dirt this individual inhaled and that was deposited in his lungs. we breathe about 20000 times every day passing some 10000 liters of air through our . particles smaller than 10 micro meters in diameter or p.m.t.

years off our lifespan. the black life shortening deposits of visible under the microscope the accumulation of carbon particles in the loans is known as answer cosas among those who and what if you look at this and consider that our own lungs probably look the same it's clear that we need to go out and breathe fresh air from time to time when most people living in big cities all have lungs in which we find to a greater or lesser extent deposits of carbon particles mean it would have been gosh are these a was on board but i have to say that when i started 30 years ago we saw far more pronounced cases of anthrax hoaxes than we do today to play on the whole it's declined but we still see it in anyone who lives in a big city looking obviously in this but you didn't and it was. their pollution generated by the particulate matter drop significantly in germany after $990.00 that includes not trojan oxides which was thrust into the spotlight by german car

make a v.w. small recent emissions scandal but since 2009 there's been little improvement in equality. the situation is far more grave in delhi the world's most polluted capital the air in the indian city is 10 times more contaminated than in cologne a trip to delhi is like a trip into germany's past this is how polluted the western european country was 4 decades ago. people try to protect themselves with face masks. we meet up with the shore club she works for the center of science and environment and is an environmental advisor to the government she takes measurements to show us just help that the air in telly is. like. cut. cut. i like it so much.
6:27 am
but i think you have no choice. but. to get really bored at home but if you take the people with you. the daily threshold values the particles in germany is 50 micrograms per cubic meter of. the measurements show delhi exceeds that by a factor of 30 that were taken in a heavily polluted area still there. the top issue for us. so if you want to buy that evolution is false he would have. been a joint is you better start looking for to pollution it does change my mind and now i want to look for the air pollution and i am going to say that this or that if not
6:28 am
please tell me the definition of the definition of missing they should be. what they would be that. the indian government has responded by closing the coal fired power plants and ordering taxis that run on gasoline or diesel to switch to compressed natural gas but many still fill up with the band fuel and traffic isn't even the main source of delhi's small it's the poor households in this city of 28000000 that use coal heated all ends to press their laundry and open fires to cook their meals. households like bondo davies every day she makes traditional flat bread often she uses the lack of wood to fire her style of such domestic cooking fire as one of the biggest sources of pollution he. pulled residents a poisoning the city's a and themselves. i have trouble breathing he
6:29 am
is. my eyes search. so and i often get headaches. sometimes i can hardly breathe and have to go to the hospital to get. from space pollution it is plain to see the haze hope is not only above the city but stretches in the broadband across india pollution levels are highest between november and monch then hospital waiting rooms fill up with coughing patients and pollution kills an estimated 1800000 indians every year doctors at b.l.k. hospital center of the chest and respiratory diseases use a lung function test to check for early warning signs. not only the. b.b. and he didn't say real out. some more some more some more some are and they
6:30 am
believe and say that's very excellent. but doctors can only treat the patient symptoms and try to relieve their pain in the recent deal as the number is increasing day by day i'm seeing more and more young children with symptoms suggestive of i'm seeing more and more people whose stupid you would ask my kids orson very frequently so the number does almost double i can not tell my patients to stop breathing because it's essential to breathe so when i see them again and again in my will be telling that viet would be a bit better go but we're not absolutely all right it's really frustrating then i don't have to take a philosophy and tell everybody to plant a tree but probably you know we need more than just planting a tree. the bale family lives in greater. i lash an absolute district in the

example its biggest polluters industry and coal fired power plants were ordered to install filter systems domestic coal ovens were gradually replaced by gas heating and electric stoves. the german environment agency operates one of 6 measuring stations in noida club so in eastern brandenburg state it also analyzes data from. the state finance stations marion vic mumfie big heads the agency's equality department she advises the government on strategies to tackle fine particulate matter and nitrogen oxides the filter that is currently collecting particulate matter isn't here at midnight it's pivoted over here and falls into this refrigerated chamber where the use filters are stored it's good to stop although we can see there's already a residue on it. and then the big money back in the 1970 s. you could literally taste and see the smog at least in the industrial vajra area
6:34 am
and big cities with a given that the fine particulate matter we measure here is a health hazard that you can't see and so it's hard to convince people that it's a serious risk to their health. agency uses high precision instruments to conduct its measurements when coal fired power plants are ramped up in neighboring poland or winds carries a higher and dust clouds to germany the values measured he arrives in the e.u. the threshold values for the inhalable particles measuring $2.00 microns or less is $25.00 micrograms per cubic meter of air averaged over 3 years. for how one small vessel and we took the data for pm 2.5 in germany and compared it with the authorized threshold value that they're going to show us on it as you see on the map everything is green which means we have not exceeded any threshold values and are in compliance with a limit so it looks like there is no health risks but the world health organization
6:35 am
has recommended limit is much lower when we compared our data to their threshold value of the map or suddenly read in other words there is a health hazard so if we want to protect public health we should use the w h o's recommendations as our yardstick. threshold values are always the result of negotiations politicians not doctors all scientists decide whether the air we breathe is clean and. and currently politicians are focused on road traffic as the main source of pollution but marian victim and phoebe says it lies elsewhere. would fuel heating systems are significant factor in air pollution especially outer enbrel areas and fun if you drive through village you'll see stacks of wood everywhere people use them to light a cozy evening fire but most don't have an exhaust filter and up everything that's burned inside goes straight up through the chimney and out into the air and that's what we prefer. emissions of pm 2.5 particulates matter from wood stoves
6:36 am
has risen in germany in recent years while the share from automobile engines has dropped since 2008 would fuel studies have been missed more particular matter than engines would combustion now generates almost as much atmospheric pollution as traffic comprising engine exhaust as well as tire and brake when. the reason more and more people like the schimmel family are reaching with would because it's considered a carbon neutral fuel but particulate matter from wood burning stoves is as much a health hazard as diesel sort chimney sweeps regularly encounter users who don't know the rules of making a fire it's a big problem so that's my stock now i would add kindling wood in a starter. the way you've packed it i don't know where you'd put the kindling it would be totally overloaded just real intolerable. stoves that are overloaded

almost with high moisture content emits high levels of pollutants like nitrogen and sulphur oxides hydrochloric acid and particulate matter. chimneysweep mattio vital juices small logs and wood will soak in west to light the fire people it's the thinner logs on top this is the low emission top down method. who there so that's the way to do it a perfectly stacked stove. in front of the manufacturer has testbench conditions to achieve certain values with optimized words and set up conditions but these vary from site to site. so in order to make it at all possible that the emissions correspond relatively closely to the manufacturer's values we cheerfully sweep's need to show our customers how to use their starves wrappers otherwise it's pointless to. even if owners like their fires
6:38 am
by the book it's virtually impossible to match manufacturers a mission values in daily use woodstoves a much more pollution inclined despite the best efforts of chimney sweeps. you are going to try word below at the emissions source or the stove the cleaner the exhaust gases that i generate one day and the more i'm protecting the environment and my neighborhood of foreign made mine in mr one. according to the german environment agency wood stoves account the 20 percent of the particulate matter emitted in the pm $2.00 size range in germany that figure is rising. power plants are still the biggest emitters with 26 percent 2 thirds of these emissions stem from coal fired power plants traffic takes 3rd place with 19 percent of the share contributed by agriculture is just 5 percent.
6:39 am
the german environment agency only measures direct emissions your slowly felt is a professor of atmospheric physics at the max planck institute for chemistry his findings are quite different lady fell says there's another culprit responsible for polluted air livestock. yeah. the animals bear share of responsibility for the problem there's far more great sustainably but whenever you buy cheap meat from a conventional factory farm you're making a decisive contribution to the creation of atmospheric particulates matter. how was that possible layfield explains the following distinction primary particulate matter is emitted directly into the atmosphere when matter created for example by thai aware stove or engine combustion decomposes into smaller particles
6:40 am
secondary particulate matter is formed by chemical processes in the air. ammonia for example which is skates from farm in new york combines with other substances to form particulate molecules some of these substances carcinogenic and small enough to enter the gas exchange regions of the lung the alveoli and the blood strain. i said if. i believe the german environment agency is a figure of 5 percent is too low. 5 or 70 percent of fine particulate matter is formed in the atmosphere it isn't released in some way as dust is formed chemically . you can applaud it here in britain livestock manure is spread as fertilizer out of fields the ammonia it contains escapes into the atmosphere york monier also escapes from the stables and particulate matter is formed when ammonia combines with nitrogen oxides from road traffic being. laid felt alarming conclusion
6:41 am
some 40 percent of all the fine particulate matter in germany is generated by agriculture and above all by factory farming. ammonia gas from farm in your blankets the ground and reacts among other things with nitrogen oxides from traffic to form ammonium nitrate in the atmosphere it may be carcinogenic high omonia levels are produced in northwestern germany a center of industrial animal farming west winds carry the gas across the country meat production is a key industry in germany could that be why there's so little public debate about agriculture is role in generating particulate matter. murray in vic mn phoebe agrees with the film's assessment. if i start if we want to tackle the problem of particulates matter we need to see fewer wood burning stoves less
6:42 am
livestock farming or cut in emissions from livestock farming less ammonia that would be ideas that would reduce so-called secondary particulates matter and would really bring relief to a large part of the population and we could meet the stricter threshold values. that would significantly reduce particulate matter pollution across germany and not just in large cities. as gideon is no doubt this is not just about guaranteeing every person's right to clean air. it's also about making clean air economically viable people call in sick to work they have chronic diseases none of that is factored into the equation instead short term economic interests are given precedence without a real evaluation of the health liabilities and their related costs see and. the problem of ambient particulate matter at michoud by wood stoves and agriculture is compounded in cities by traffic. particulate matter and nitrogen oxides accumulated

hot spots on heavily trafficked roads in so-called street canyons or at railway stations and this is especially true in the winter months when temperature inversion traps polluted any of the ground. barbara hoffman is an environmental epidemiologist whose evaluated studies on air pollution involving tens of thousands of participants. their findings a surprising. they're out of our lives it's not really tricky of course it's the drivers who are sitting in a cabin that are exposed to the highest levels of fire upon is all that and when riding a bicycle even if you can only distance yourself from heavy traffic by a few meters or take a road parallel to the main road the exposure is already significantly lower beutler. 65 cities in germany regularly exceed limits cannot trigger an upside emissions produced by diesel vehicles the values are particularly

high in munich stuttgart and cologne. environment commission a common avella to germany and 5 other countries to court. some of the pm complains to be. in 2000. and 5 and no 2 complains for to be in 2010 so i think we've waited a long time and we cannot possibly wait and all and the longer we cannot have plans . which are telling us that might be sometime even after 2027 after 2025 times so these were the main reasons. the most effective way to rapidly cut nitrogen oxide pollution is to ban diesel cars from roads with the government dragging its feet the organization environmental action germany began suing the 65 affected cities to force them to
6:45 am
stay within the e.u. pollution limits the 1st verdict was handed down and in early june 2800 of them became the 1st german city force to take action by an administrative court. just one lot over the state of north rhine-westphalia was no take all necessary measures to ensure that it complies with the limit of nitrogen dioxide by september 1st 2019 of the scottish however the court has made it clear that it considers a bone and diesel driving to be the only suitable measure to ensure compliance with this limit. so there's now a 98 percent likelihood that a ban on driving diesel cars will be imposed. 3 weeks later in late june 28th in an administrative court in stuttgart also ruled in favor of driving bans. the state government complied banning diesel cars from all roads in stuttgart from january the 1st 2019 and not just on selected roads like in hamburg or as planned
6:46 am
in berlin. the ban applies to cars made to euro 4 standard and older. so we wouldn't be discussing driving bands today have cars were as clean as they're supposed to be manufacturers had used cheating software but installed suitable hardware would be complying with air quality standards for both nitrogen oxides and particular matter. ringback if all the affected. cities introduce driving bans at least $1300000.00 diesel drivers would be impacted. is an advisor to federal ministries he doesn't see driving bans as a necessity. for him our farm i've always appealed for patience the values will continue to improve and reach targets across the board even in short guarded and munich through friends or come out in chicago. argues that diesel technology is indispensable if all vehicles were replaced by vehicles with better

but he blinds policy makers for setting bro traffic pollution limits at a time when they were technologically unattainable. but i was part of this whole business for the last i think it'll go about as good i'm sure the developers faced an impossible task either they had high levels of particulate matter and low levels of nitrogen oxides or high levels of nitrogen oxides on low levels of but tickler matter. and you couldn't achieve low levels of both at the same time that only became possible with exhaust after treatment technology but it was a generally known fact that in reality vehicles were emitting far more than the utopian limit of 180 milligrams kilometer. simle tiny asli cutting particulate matter and nitrogen oxides wasn't technically feasible 10 years ago in diesel engines combustion occurs at a particularly high temperature generating

emissions problem is resolved we mustn't demonize diesel. but it will take years to upgrade diesel vehicles on germany's roads with the new technology. affected cities need to act and they need traffic managers because vehicles generate less pollution when they move in them when they're stopped in traffic jams stuck on is looking to technology for help it's installed fill. around measuring station at make it all the location that clogs up the worst air pollution in germany johannes stoner and patrick little are in charge of the pilot project. mini conference with installed filters on a 350 meter stretch along the road toward the last one is back there at the car dealership put off on a sign by. all the holes in all 17 columns of stock filter

clubs are set up to reduce the load of particulate pollution so going into more than 40 measures the listed in stuttgart is clean air and action plan either has his own father boarded in the debate on introducing driving bans we had politicians and industry representatives saying why didn't you do this why didn't you do that to avert a driving ban. we heard about particle filters being installed in other cities and vehicles equipped with filters and even if we're not entirely convinced about the effectiveness of such measures we say if it's not nonsense let's give it a go or be under this always so we need to show we're using the means at our disposal to clean the air we're open to suggestions but we won't fall for useless hocus pocus then explain. this specialist hope they can persuade stuttgart authorities to install particle field to systems like this one on top of cars in city traffic. for their books for them to find shall we filter particulate matter
6:52 am
in the books. on the fans turn in the air you can feel it here is drawn through the filter if i show you something else here we have installed a filter solution for the break. it filters particulate matter directly at the source. of these break filters could be installed in any vehicle cars trucks but also buses for example it's generated a lot of interest and this is because. the engine is a seeking to install the system on. small trucks trains and buses this car also measures particulate matter in the environment during our entire test drive in stuttgart the values exceeded the legal limit. even in neighborhoods at higher elevations. if it only did the rooftop filter removes both 80 percent of particulate matter is fine stops a horse and the brake filter on the front axle also removes about 80 percent of
6:53 am
particulate matter generated by brake wear. but filters can only clean the air that passes through them they can only fight the symptoms not the causes of pollution and they don't remove nitrogen oxides at all for now reducing the number of diesel vehicles appears to be the only solution. then go in next an infinite space of a year we discover up to the task and some measurements that we're still a long way from meeting legal threshold values then well prepared to introduce driving restrictions for euro 5 vehicles in 2020. recent court rulings have put the government under pressure it's asked carmakers to offer trade in incentives to customers who scrap all the diesels the measures being criticized as a stimulus plan for the auto industry rather than a solution to pollution from them torching here german car makers are offering attractive premiums b.m.w. for example 6000 euros v.w. the v.w.
