about the revolutionary music charts and john. says a history. of songs like that don't go away they stay with us for all time i. started feb 7th. with constantly buying food clothes cars plane tickets you name it the internet has only boiled store district human consumption is at its highest ever but what we often forget is that this indiscriminate consumption has a huge impact on the environment we live in is it a possibility to strike a balance i'm a consumption sustainable we'll explore that over the next 30 minutes hello welcome

this is equal india and on some of that i've heard fuel is a basic needs today we need energy for cooking lighting off rooms watching t.v. charging up by phones among so many other things we have little influence over how energy is produced but we can try to be mindful about how much of it we are using it's a win win for climate change as well as the household budget women in the lower income community in the city of recognize this and are now the drivers of change. any other is on her regular morning rounds through low income settlements and believe us north of. the way now that's not the i. i'm from my lesson about trust and like few moments of

your time this will. make a man. she is on a mission to talk to as many residents as she can about what she now knows about running the household more effort. when she started making her personal visit things were quite different around here ok yeah yeah yeah in those days around 10 of the 216 houses in this neighborhood had metered electricity connections each of these houses was shedding electricity with at least 10 other houses and we were not so well informed it would put up $100.00 watt but even in the toilet because it costs just $10.00 rupees but the bus did not come with any reality it would soon stop working and we would go and buy another one for 10 to p.c. . took it upon herself to learn what could be done better she now works with a local organization that trained her how to conduct full scale energy audits to

help enable other marginalized women make their households as efficient as possible . in 2016 india became the code largest consumer of electricity in the world behind the u.s. and china the lack of access to information specifically about the effects of overconsumption is a contributing factor to this jarring start to stick. oh boy now cover new people didn't realize why their environment was changing and they thought that the effects of climate change were actually acts of god. but i asked them if they felt this hot 10 years ago though they'd say no let us bellick a seat by the sea if this were just so i would then ask for the vi has it become so hot now. the. krishna ban explain. efficient light and the effects of energy based in simple

terms a survey showed that since 2010 the both of them in here who actually view that rising temperatures and poor living conditions to a natural changes or unexplained phenomena well from 26 percent to 9 percent. sure. is one of krishna bands gunboats a family of 5 used to deceive a monthly electricity bill of by 1000 rupees out of around 63 year olds that's a 6th of their income. since the audit showed number one has to wish to 7 what a 26 want to be like and a one watt feeling found regulator bringing down her bill 2000 rupees or 25 little . apart from audit krishna ban and could a just families in the neighborhood to install a video of green energy products like sustainable model and natural ventilator

thanks. and other who has benefited from fish love and advice as me not being a dealer who walked in the sweltering heat inside her home in. bonus like heat for years. we used to feel extremely hot and i was restless all the time as it is a i just don't stay in those i used to run outside to get some white paint has brought peace into my life now when i switch on the fan it doesn't feel that hard. painting the roof by where the suggestion made by krishna being the bright painter flicks up to 90 percent of the sunlight that would otherwise be trapped as heat it's had a positive effect on the electricity bill to. power . no band and me no band's families are among the

hows and households who have made changes to their homes to improve energy efficiency since 2010. in total they see if close to 5 good order peas a year that's almost $650000.00 euros. one of the biggest changes though has been in the role of berman in the community almost 80 percent of newly installed electric meters are in the name of the women of the house which is often the 1st legal document some of the women have ever received. but i used to depend on my husband for money to run the household but now i have become financially independent and live off my own onions i can decide myself then and how much to spend i no longer have to worry or depend on anyone but.

the women of us are impressive drivers of change in their own life as well as in their community. sustainable consumption sounds difficult but it is that we also have the opportunity to consume sustainably in farming yourself about better alternatives and then looking for them in your supermarket i would be a good start here are a few good ideas to help you with that. world wide c o 2 emissions reach new heights in 2019. over 40000000000 tons of carbon dioxide were released into the air. transportation accounts for around one quarter of the emissions. biking instead of driving by train instead of by plane these are ways for everyone to reduce c o 2 emissions a 1000 kilometer journey by train release is 36 kilos. of c

o 2 the same distance by plane releases almost 6 times that amount. most energy is produced by burning fossil fuels and every year more energy is needed the prognosis is that the world will need 50 percent more energy by the year 2050. conditioners lighting on computers for a growing world population by using moderate temperature settings in energy saving technology everyone can reduce their carbon footprint. rain forests absorb lots of climate. every 2nd an area the size of a football pitch is cut down by cutting down trees and using slash and burn farming room is made for food production not just live stock but also the feed those animals need like soy and corn. buying plant based products in the supermarket is more environmentally friendly because they need less land and less resources than

meat products. that means more of the forest can be left to store c o 2 it's. a huge consequence. but we have to be a problem an environmental engineer and a citizen activist have come together. and provides a lot of symbiote the connection between. energy production and excessive consumption. in the heart of. it is festering everywhere this neighborhood is literally drowning in it. illegal dumping sites are more than just an eyesore residents complain of a fellow. several cases of dengue have been reported in the area. bangalow municipality has hired so-called marshals to crack down on those littering

or dumping trash the motional makes the offended pick up the bag he just threw away . this guy is throwing his weight here he hasn't separated it this isn't a dumping ground the garbage truck went to his house but he missed because he woke up too late. to find. it's $200.00 rupees just under 3 euros for dumping household trash. city's infrastructure is failing to cope with the unchecked development and growth once known as the garden city bangalore now has a new nickname garbage city. some have had enough. every morning. inspects the trash pick up in her neighborhood of course among. residents are meant to put their kitchen waste in a green been without linus it's the end directly into the truck. the chemistry

teacher takes it upon herself to educate residents. yes but i love mark brady either i get it. me when i get i will get it. but he can't put plastic you know to be you know so that is the only problem i see. if i lie i need to be you feet but you should not because it does you know you know you're sure not . to have. it just because it really compost along with your food and then we leave the same bed to different. not everyone follows the rules here all the trash has gone into one bin boy's my blood because. we have been and it's not rocket science it's just separated and how hard is that.

entrepreneurs some not encounters new dumping science. some other spark this. painting them up making but then again it's going to. be environmental engineer has come up with his own solution to reduce the city's waste he's joined forces with machinery ballroom to set up a bio gas facility. field gammick waste from padma shri ballrooms neighborhood which would normally go to a landfill is a state brought here as a rule material. the church has to come in it otherwise it means high operational costs and less bio gas. today if it's payoff. is good. this is your 100 percent right. but needs to strip the floor was an alert with which i mean but then i would read this i mean this is now.

the facility process has about 600 kilograms of local kitchen waste a day tending its. into slavery the actual plant is further away built in refurbished shipping containers on land provided by the local authorities. there is also a business model. the bo bio gas is purified here and then stored in a tank. the resulting gas brand named carbon lights is sold. what we're producing as an end product. might be 4 percent of meet him which means it's much better than us it can displace any fossil fuel. so at the end of the day we're creating a clean renewable energy right here in. the biggest guy is in neighboring restaurant the gas is piped in from just 200 meters away.

the restaurant is hugely popular the kitchen uses about 70 kilograms of bio gas a day which is also cheaper than conventional cooking gas. there are no official dumps within the city anymore for the $5000.00 tons of garbage bangalore generates every single day. even designated landfills like this one on a major has it. causes disease or. the pollution creates metered again which is a. damaging your source. that's. adding. some not only on has scaled up his operations to help keep more waste out of landfills and make his business. about 13 tons of food waste arrive at this plant north of bangalore every day from i

t parks and corporate campuses. about 17 jobs have been created here to buy a gas plant. unlike the facility in the city it also compresses the gas it's then bottled into senators that can be shipped to customers across bangalore. our dream is to have this across india with on too close coming into this business running but on michael and it's a win win for the country as well as creating more jobs and creating energy security. something that i and has already expanded into 2 moves states he plans to continue growing the wasted fuel business model could be a viable way for famu indian cities to clean up their act. when it comes to food what does sustainable consumption actually yes it would be good to buy locally produced food and it might be necessary to eat less meat

a german company nor are they we going through this and licorice is supporting startups to come up with and sustainable food to. german can be manufactured cock used has started a venture capital fund in downtown berlin the family owned firm hope scotches green food will encourage hip sustainable nutrition trends and make money at the same time it's like here is a mango coconut milk or a banana vase or a lemon juice or all the powder like cold pressed not to pasteurize by heating the innovation in the sector is the pressure and so here's the world's 1st getting ready to see. the manager of the fund to spin a vegetarian since childhood funds food projects that she believes are forward looking and environmentally friendly bacon chips without pork or hemp bars and

she's prepared to invest between 200002 1000000 euro's and this might it may sound but especially for investors from the tech side the taste has to be top class in the food sector if the taste isn't great you won't get customers coming back for more sometimes we get companies with great ideas that take plant based issues or meat alternative seriously but then the product doesn't taste good right and i think to fly unchecked as kids are growing market sales a vegan and vegetarian products are rising significantly in germany and 28000 the market was worth over 1200000000 euros. touches green food has so far invested in 8 startups among the firms they've invested in is the porridge maker. half akasha. half a cat actually came across half a cottage by accident they had

a pop up store in the main train station and i walked past it on a sunday and tried it and found the taste fantastic i got talking to the founders and learned about their concept but we ended up investing because it was the 1st healthy breakfast to go on the market and yes. it marked in 2014 schubert open for lin's 1st part bar with 2 friends they wanted to offer something different from the bakery chains and i thought it's always easier to sell something with meat a breakfast with ham will sell people want that but there are enough existing concepts that offer it already we don't have to. $40000.00 portions of powerage across hoffer counters counters every month odes fruit and nuts are challenging meets dominance. that's when we started we renovated a small kebab shop that we scraped all the fat off the walls and said let's start our part business after

a few months we took part in an accelerator program run by german rail they were looking for startups to make train stations more appealing it was mostly tech firms with a few food companies we were one of them and they were impressed by our part of their concept is simple take the oats that have been in europe for centuries and add different toppings and fruits. just went on a schubert and her co-founders were given the cash injection from conscious green food they made the leap to become a chain. were mainly a take away business. sustainability and packaging is a bit of a contradiction of pick and although you could bring your own container and get it filled with the name of these questions keep coming up and we try to find the right answers and keep on growing. also by that so that. the getting food. this is now a trend in german cities this shows where most begin foodstuffs are being rolled out

15 percent of global market launches take place in germany closely followed by the united kingdom in the united states in spain in france it's only 4 percent so a market for wealthy countries but there is more to it if any witnesses i wish there was wider awareness of the relationship between nutrition and the environment on such an important point and we need to become more aware of it i believe or just at the beginning especially in germany and in the united states people are already 2 years further along in terms of consciousness but in fact. germany may be catching up fast but for the time being sustainable food trends remain a nice market for young and well heeled urban foodies. we all love buying new clothes but. we need to stop doing that well not really a company has found a way to make chic out of the tons of textile production we used in india produces

let's see how. this clothing design studio in southwesterly fabric waste is seen as a valuable resource the philosophy is simple we don't need more new clothes that challenges the current fast fashion business model something this label does with pride. the problem in the fashion industry thoughts from the fact that it's based on a linear fashion model so today about 73 percent off garment just go into landfills because. there is lack. of the using the fabrics and the garments that working with. it was this

realization that led pretty tola and due diligence to other founders to address the problem of textile waste in india and set up a design label committed to making fashionable clothing pieces from textile waste or upcycling discarded items it's a concept that has been gaining in popularity in the textile industry all over india as awareness rises. there's always a bomb and they're called out of order. but then i got being process is there's a lot of restrictions that happened so i could obs all of that on board the small scale unit or a lot of that is so much that has been produced and that exists it's about time that we start thinking about using what would i do that. government waste is not the only problem in india the textile industry is a major polluter in india the 3rd biggest after plastic and paper. but in india it's not just the garment with that we have to be concerned about it's

the production rates that we have to be concerned about this to one of the largest exporters of both objects and all means in the wood so all of the waste is just as you're going to i think that level is still something that benoit being able to do with the amount of the reproducing. didn't bother mentally implications watering and the situation is only getting worse by the day due to the surging demand for products use of chemicals the need for landfill space energy and water consumption. into a new 1501. and that fashion industry used up about $79000000.00 metric so that's that's huge and the single t. shirt is takes up about 2720 liters a flock of which is as much as most adults will drink and c.e.o.'s and that is

a single t. shirt. then of course that toxic step in the production you know process itself which then impacts the communities around which factors come. due diligence fund is used 1st of funds to set up a company in 2012 now they have nearly 20 employees the seeds of inspiration are saum while the fabric was just being sorted. once all of this. this studio restart thinking about what kind of designs can bring all of them together we start fixing the fabrics so that they can actually be used for either to create the clothes that. that's not all the produce bags and other items and the scraps from their own production going to making other new products as well. in india due diligence considered

a somewhat expensive brand with garments costing between 50 to 100 euros. presenting. since it 1st set up shop dude league has shown a collection every yeah at the lakme fashion week. the labels products are already available in 30 stores in india and also to some stores but things there's still a long way to go. not a fundamental level sustainable consumption means being mindful. and choosing to preserve that with respect i hope you will give some thought to that we'd be back next week with yet another episode. germany thank you for watching.

before this. great. night there. was this. the united states was built by immigrants. but did the european settlers find the american dream that they were searching for hoping for a better life history of europeans in america in 15 minutes on doubling.

every 2 seconds a person is forced to flee their home nearly 71000000 people have been forcibly displaced the consequences to say asterisk our documentary series displaced depicts traumatic you. around the world you know. what a good thing we don't need and i didn't go to university to kill people. or to have my boss come to me and tell me to kill someone and i got mad if i don't they'll kill me. for their lives and their future so they seek refuge abroad but what will become of her stay behind it's a. battle my husband went to pearl because of the crisis. that if he hadn't gone there we would have died of hunger but i want to. play. this
