education helps connect us to the world around us and better understand the way it works it can also help us come up with ideas and innovation to make up planet a better place this week we're looking at how education can keep us moving towards a green a future. hello welcome to eco india that uncle coming to you from my neighborhood in mumbai india has set itself a mission climate targets from 2030 the country wants to feed 500 legal wards of renewable energy into its grid solar energy will play a key role in this plan but put it to work india needs to work many of them training is being made available already to the help of special learning about the trees.
4:03 am
learning under real world conditions and the job. university in delhi mohammad harman is preparing for a curry and that the new bill energy sector. not in a lecture theatre but in a special learning korean developed and installed by company sense the focus is on solar and wind power. we know that sun energy is one of them was import and abundant form of energy that we can use for our daily even our ideas back. and most of the appliance in our village is also very. being the electricity we are using this to convert the energy on the cheap is a growing economy means that india's energy needs to double in the next 20 years the country has also commented itself to sourcing nearly 40 percent of its power
4:04 am
from soup and wind by 2030 skilled workers are lacking modern photovoltaic units solar power grid systems in equal sense levada creates beeching has an emphasis on practical skills it is also quick the bachelor's degree at this university in delhi for example only takes 3 years in the state of the usual form it is one where the universe. these are hoping to attract more interest they can learn the things that it can not only the theory but they can actually see what is going to happen in the friedman for example i tell you that if you want to go until the field where you have install solar panels you want to see where the whole of the sun late falls on it how much energy is produced how much power is coming out how much load you can add a task to it that we can do here we can simulate a similar situation by using high power bulbs which in a way what lake you know artificial sun. and you near appreciate bungling develop

the labatt agrees he and his company eco sens have been the specializing in clean energy solutions for 10 years time and again the discovery that it was hard to find personell to handle the technology so the idea of the learning get bothered is this bomb. if we and it was too many people would most all energy then everyone will be elected and the villages will be electrified and and then you will reach 2 of them or this all the place in the country and paris will and it is very very cost competitive and come back to them sort of them up plan so everyone can adopt it only thing what we need is that education should be given to it it most. most of the people in not from technicians to engineer level so their adoption of the new will and that it will be multifold in that and. that's why sense doesn't just occur buna recipes but also private come. the national institute of solar
4:06 am
energy the institute is building a pool of solar technicians on behalf of the energy ministry that could be employed any of. the solar labatt or crease played a central role in the crimean program. as you start to go. is up in the middle ship of men force requirement and the major trunk is required at the bottom and. we have this with a meter fitting and that they are helping the industry. targets and the government to achieve all those things and of course our environmental concerns as well. how many is one of more than 400000 students who have studied in eco senseless crees so far if we build a successful to implement this in our country it will be very helpful for the ruler as well as for the city. because of the covert 1000 pandemic many of the labs have
4:07 am
recently had to close he could sense founder of the ship monkey his country working on developing remote controlled printing systems that really students and teachers alike could access the necessary technical equipment from home. and out one 3rd. the food we produce for human consumption globally is lost. that's a lot of food particularly when there are so many hungry people around the world and it also takes a toll on the involvement we met with one organization in before the crisis that a speech how long to become a new generation of food. the students at this berlin elementary school are going to be cooking today the unusual thing about this school lunch workshop is the ingredients which nearly ended up at the dump. that's very famous
4:08 am
for this is all produce that we rescued yesterday from a local supermarket that sells organic food we go there once or twice a week and find great stuff here are some carrots in various colors they were rejected as they're slightly soft on the bit wrinkled but they're still fine to eat today. and that's a caution founded an association 4 years ago that makes use of leftover food she and her team go into berlin schools to teach the children that fruit and vegetables that don't look perfect are still great to eat the students learn to appreciate the value of food in a playful way some are already quite well informed. yet here when we buy food in the supermarket here there's always enough and food costs money to be produced so it's not right to just throw it away and. make. you feel good sometimes it's because things just don't meet certain standards
4:09 am
for example carrots are supposed to be strict and if they're bent some people won't buy them. really it's all just food that's grown crooked it doesn't mean you can't eat it. before they get down to cooking the children learn about the process the food has been through from the start of production to landing on their dinner plate like meat for a hamburger. then the burger patties get taken by truck to the supermarket. it soon becomes clear that many valuable resources have gone into producing the food line on supermarket shelves. too many for the food to just be thrown away. by basically it's super important to understand everything that's involved in producing food if we waste food say an apple that has
4:10 am
a blemish we're not just throwing away the apple but the time that went into it the c o 2 that was produced by transporting it etc. by him of course disposing be it's about making the children realise that they're not just throwing the apple away but a lot more it's really important that this is. the ingredients that the children are now cooking with couldn't have been sold any more the fruit and vegetables just aren't attractive enough the bread to dry but it's still fine for cooking and that's what annette equations association wants to show . this is still fresh a few bits were bad but i got rid of those so now it's fine. in the end the children rustle up a healthy 3 course menu from the rescued food. they made soup salad and fruit compote. so far over a 1000 berlin school children have taken part in the school lunch workshop and
4:11 am
learned a lot about the value of food but the proof is in the putting food is only as good as it tastes. good really yummy it's the seasoning yeah that gives it something special you have envisioned i just took a little the try it but if nearly finished it i don't normally like salad that much but this is really good and i just like economy i can't believe this would have been thrown away and wasted when it's so good all good. and that's exactly the message the team wants to convey. it went well they were great group and really into it some of them knew quite a bit already i was quite impressed and they enjoyed the food to have all. the children acquired new cooking skills and learned not to waste food in future they're likely to pay greater attention to what's ending up on their plates and in the trash. now albatrosses are among the
4:12 am
largest stanford's on our planet and also among the most endangered one of the problem for the birds is fishing hooks scientists have been working to get little district and they've had some success with a little help from the bulbs themselves. with the rain span of up to 3 and a half meters the wandering albatross may be the most majestic sea bird in the southern hemisphere and one of its most endangered bird species. here on france's close they islands an archipelago in the southern ocean. and his team equipped the birds with transmitters since last fall they've been tracking the flight of the albatrosses. the ornithologist has been fascinated with the sea birds ever since he was a boy. he did all the crosses flights of 70 to 80 kilometers an hour
4:13 am
over stormy seas without flapping their wings they use the winds to get around but it's true there is something majestic confront tussock about the flight of the albatross when you go to the sea every owner theologist dreams of catching a glimpse of one. yet such encounters are increasingly rare because the number of wandering albatrosses has shrunk dramatically in recent years researchers estimate that there are only around 25000 left worldwide. albatrosses often followed boats in search of food. for the 1st time i saw when i was on the boat taking those over to the crows at islands with a bird just. a bit of nowhere on the sea was choppy and we saw the other cross routes the boat pass over it and fly alongside the vessel is observe those and then vanished again into the sea. the birds mainly follow fishing unfortunately
4:14 am
many fishermen cast kilometer long lines equipped with dozens of hooks while trying to steal the bait albatrosses often swallow the hooks and die a painful death. the boats are usually unlicensed and don't send out the required automatic identification signals they also don't employ safety measures like weighted lines which can immediately be pulled down far below the water's surface marine biologists are concerned. about is not the problem with international waters is their rights free zone international organizations don't have the legal instruments to force these boats to stop their own authorized fishing or. so on revive and his colleagues launched their ocean sentinel research project to find another way of combating illegal fishing. they've now fitted $170.00 birds with radar transmitters which can even track down boats that aren't sending out the
4:15 am
required signal. this here is a transmitter you know it has a g.p.s. antenna which allows it to locate the exact spot where the radar was detected. the unutterable turn a transmits the data directly to us via satellite. the scientists compared the data gathered by the birds with that from authorised fishing boats they found that around 30 percent of the vessels out at sea lacked permits the researchers say there are indications some of the boats are sailing under chinese and spanish flags. an accusation that spain's director general of sustainable fisheries categorically rejects. the basis that we are all very nice in whatever instruments that were flying the flag. being. welcome sure we sure we all of them and all that we are not a were also there. but the ornithologists trust their research their
4:16 am
certain their data could help to stop illegal fishing and save albatrosses in the process. here but he might know if we can provide evidence that there's a high mortality rate and a certain place and most of the boats have their identification system switched off and we can prove that with the recent data that's a step forward. for. his work with wandering albatrosses has turned reviving esky into a conservationist as well as a researcher he knows there's not much time left to save the species so he's using his data to reel in illegal fishing and ensure albatrosses continue to soar above the crossing islands. prawns salmon mackerel perhaps some of the most common seafood you might find on your plate the massive demand for the.
4:17 am
pressure on the fishermen and the fish during the breeding season all in dangerous waters or even over fish a particular species a unique calendar is helping consumers understand this phenomenon so that the fish and the fisherman are better protected. daybreak is still a couple of hours away but business is in full swing at sassoon docks the largest and oldest fish landing site in coastal mumbai. it is all going to kill us. fisherfolk have landed their fresh catch. wholesale fish auctions are underway. and fishmongers jostle through the crowd carrying tubs of prawns soundman and a range of other seafood. long before mumbai became the bustling metropolis it is today it's
4:18 am
a original inhabitants that call it fishing community lived very differently. when you should live or when my going to get going for there was an fishing restrictions on me for the survival of what they were fish to mr prawns of laws of my career's or whatever restraint for the future consumption and when the modernization started when the prawns business started when the problems came in 1000 sixty's and seventy's it was almost before the exports you know and that is where we started catching a lot for others you know the entire period of change. the nation a crisis 7 generation fisherman who operates 3 fishing boats at the docks. he owns about the changes in the local fishing trade through stories passed down through his family he's also witnessed a lot himself since he started coming here as a child. my grandfather used to always tell me dad how she was with the fish you know used to follow a couple of walls and not so strong as in like just the one soul or something of that and then slowly and slowly to do started being in it is it really to
4:19 am
contribute is 90 days was 5 to 6 days in 20072000 fishing is returned to the world is now telling is almost like 15 to 20 days. though india accounts to 6.3 percent of global fish production fishing for a living could soon become economically unviable for another fisherman in his community. he's now working with a group of marine biologists to raise awareness of the depleted fish stocks. because of massive information gap between. you. the information gap in terms of what fish to eat in what season in order to minimize their impact on the seafood people are more than willing. to do some subtle changes in their seafood eating practices for a living is this information is not available to them. in any fashion. you know your fish is the 1st of its kind seafood sustainability guide produced in india.
4:20 am
it's a calendar of the details what species can be eaten when and which should be avoided in certain seasons. for each fish recollected what it would be to what it was publicly available only lister know richard richard of months richard the fish nor is known to breed the months very recent of particular fish should be awarded. to that the months very fresh produce all the fish which gets caught along with that fish. some eaten chaya is a mumbai resident who found out about the calendar a year ago and now appears to it strictly when cooking for our family did to you even though i really like crohn's i've stopped eating them for me to 3 months in the year because that's the time that they breed situation however this fish is something we can eat now.
4:21 am
commercial outlets have also begun following the regime. like this seafood restaurant in suburban mumbai. if you have different kinds of dishes on the menu then we would rather use a different fish for every preparation that is on the menu as opposed to those one fish on the. united mostly on the entire menu and bad cans and that kind of makes it cool for us and makes it slightly challenging to come up with dishes in the sense and the challenge is something that we enjoy. their restaurant staff see that there has been a remarkable change in their customers choices to. make before. we were operating officer guy not knowing what was. all right and that was the idea of seafood for us it was exotic but today we want to know where did this come from. but i mean thing was that line cord is a farm is that why like when was this court is this fish fresh. the team behind the
4:22 am
calendar looks the behavioral change can someday result in a shift in seafood demand and supply. like you can only mangoes in windows and strawberries in summer similarly they have to understand you can order it. so i think this has to come from a consumer and a new when it comes from consumers and automatically fishermen can change i want the consumer to nor the fisherman as the fish are in the know the fish they even know the fisherman i think it can work like that. normally trading has not yet resumed following the crew not only did lock downs but as it slowly starts up the hope that fisher folk and consumers can come together to ease the burden on fish stocks remains high. now a story that's off the beaten path the pandemic has put travel plans of many of us it's tough to get around and even if you can it's not easy to find some way to stick to designer has found a solution and it's environmentally friendly it has still wheels and
4:23 am
a rapper. both on the water. and dry land. i guess allowed since travels with his unique invention every which way across latvia. the designer loves to delve into nature quite literally. having a little camper that you can take into water like this on a sunny sunny day like this is it's just amazing. it gives yeah the sense of freedom really i mean that's the it's the most most fun about it. a lot being designed as an invention is the houseboat cycle just a few quick tweaks and the bicycle tanks into
4:24 am
a boat it's power to buy an electric outboard motor and has room for 2 people and a 4 legged companion. i guess allowed to spend several years working on this prototype. so the special thing about the boat money so. it's a little micro house so it's you know the how much slides over. and you can stay on the lake overnight it's equipment lights to use to be charging ports so it's a tiny tiny little house on the water so you know there's nothing there's nothing like that. to him it's the most beautiful way of communing with nature. and i think i like the peace. of the sense of. connectedness and a sense of belonging to this block of i think of this world and i think that's the nature of think i think of the base the harmony.

whenever he wants to move on all i guess needs to do is to pull his amphibian cycle out of the water and get back on the road it weighs 100 kilograms and is equipped with an electric motor that is good for up to 40 kilometers. and. so far i've been going through all sorts of like really really hard core country roads it's fine it's it's it's it's it's ok. i just love to spend 10 years living and working abroad 2 years ago he moved back to latvia into his ancestors house and started his own design studio whilst on a 4 year high school tour from london to tokyo he came up with the idea for those that try to as he calls his invention. with a lot of attention to detail he started building at it includes

a little hut garden and a few technical gadgets like this one powered white. together with his wife he's working on producing it in series. we want to create something really meaningful for this planet we don't want to waste resources we don't want to create something that is just just waste on this planet to get his creative juices flowing i guess louts it sometimes spontaneously takes a break his invention is a perfect match for him it also serves as a mini camp. the captain's cabin can be changed into a little bedroom furniture and others making this unique vehicle ready for all kinds of adventures by day or by night. a very unique creation that on next week's show we need
