again a future. hello welcome to eco india that uncle coming to you from my neighborhood in mumbai india has set itself a mischa's climate from 2030 country wants to feed 500 legal works of renewable energy into its good solar energy will play a key role in this plan but put it to work india needs killed workers many of them training is being made available already for the help of special learning about the trees. learning under real world conditions like the john mammal years long university in delhi mohammad harman is preparing for a career in 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

sun 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 data even our ideas back. and most of the appliance in our village is also where we can. bring the electricity we are using with a breakthrough convert the energy on the cheap is a growing economy means that india's emerging needs to double in the next 20 years the country has also commented itself to sourcing nearly 40 percent of its power from sun and wind by 2030 skilled workers are lacking modern photovoltaic units solar power systems in equal sense live body craves beeching has an emphasis on practical skills it is also the bachelor's degree at this university
2:33 pm
in delhi for example only takes 3 years instead of the usual 4 it is one where the universe. hoping to attract more interest they can learn the things that it can not only the toy but they can actually see what is going to happen in the field for example i tell you that if you want to go into all the fields where you have installed solar panels you want to see where the whole this and late falls on 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 work like you know artificial sun. and genea reshipped mangling develop the live bot agrees he and his company eco sense have been the specializing in clean energy solutions for 10 years time and again the discovery that it was hard to find personnel to handle the technology so the idea of the learn english body is born.
2:34 pm
if we're neighbors too many people would know salinity then everyone will be elected and the villages will be electrified and and then you will reach 2 of them or to sell the place in the country and put it all in it is a very very cost competitive and come to term sort of them up plan so everyone can adopt it only thing what we need is that education should be given to egypt most. most of the people in technology from technicians to engineer level so their adoption of a new bill and that it will be multifold in the country. that's why eco sense doesn't just universities but also private come to the national institute of solar energy the institute is building a pool of solar technicians on behalf of the energy ministry that could be employed any. the solar border crease played a central role in the crimean program. once you start to go.

is up to the middle ship of man force required and the major trunk is required at the bottom and it did this with a meter fitting and the dad had been 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 really 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 recently had to close he could sense founder of the ship monkeys because country working on developing remote controlled printing systems that really students and teachers alike could access the necessary technical equipment from home. i doubt one 3rd. the
2:36 pm
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 before the crisis that is reaching children how long to become. a food waste. 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 in various british 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 frank 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 to caution founded an
2:37 pm
association for 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 me the students learn to appreciate the value of food in a playful way some are already quite well informed. 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 think sometimes it's because things just don't meet certain standards for example carrots are supposed to be straight 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.
2:38 pm
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 basic only super important to understand everything that's involved in producing food and if we waste food say an apple that has 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 this will 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. one of the
2:39 pm
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 learned a lot about the value of food but the proof is in the putting food is only as good as it tastes so we could really yummy it's the seasoning yeah that gives it something special happened then i just took a little to try it but if nearly finished it i don't normally like salad that much
2:40 pm
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 too i can combine 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 largest stanford's on our planet and also among the most endangered one of the problems for the birds is fishing hooks scientists have been working to get rid of this threat and they've had some success with a little help from the birds themselves.
2:41 pm
with a 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 crows they islands an archipelago in the southern ocean on virus 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 transfers flights of 70 to 80 kilometers an hour over stormy seas without flapping their wings they used the winds to get around but it's true there's something majestic can fantastic about the flight of the albatross when you go to the sea every owner tholen just dreams of catching a glimpse of one. yet such encounters are increasingly rare because the number of
2:42 pm
wandering albatrosses has shrunk dramatically in recent years researchers estimate that there are only around 25000 left worldwide. albatrosses often follow boats in search of food. for the 1st time i saw when i was on the boat taking those over to the crows and silence the bird just came out of nowhere. the sea was choppy and we saw the albatross approach the boat pass over it's a fly alongside the vessel is observe those and then vanished again into the sea. the birds mainly follow fishing unfortunately 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
2:43 pm
weighted lines which can immediately be pulled down far below the water's surface marine biologists are concerned. about is not a 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 and. so on revived 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 required signal. i think this here is the transmitter you know it has a g.p.s. antenna which allows it to locate the exact spot where the radar was detected. then another one a transmits the data directly to us via satellite. the scientists
2:44 pm
compared the data gathered by the birds with that from authorized 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 operating essentially whatever instruments that were flying the flag. are welcome sure we sure we all of them and all that we are not aware or off there. but the ornithologists trust their research their 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
2:45 pm
and we can prove that with the recent data and that's a step forward from all. his work with wandering albatrosses has turned revive mesquite 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 continues 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. pressure on the fisherman 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. they are. going to.
2:46 pm
daybreak it's 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 organized chaos. 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 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 reach to california for the survivors what they were finished wrongs of laws of michael's or whatever we stood right for the future consumption and when the modernization started when the prawns business started when the dollars came in $1000.00 sixty's
2:47 pm
and seventy's it was all mostly for the exports you know and that is where we started catching a lot for others you know the entire period of change. the nation occupies a 7 generation fishermen who operates 3 fishing boats at the docks. he learnt 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 how she was with the fish you know. couple of walls and good not so strong as in like just a one shawl or something about and then slowly and slowly to do started being greece they immediately like to contribute is 90 days was 5 to 6 days in 20072010 fishing is retained the world is now the tolling 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 and viable for now and other fishermen in
2:48 pm
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 gathering themselves 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. know your fish is the 1st of its kind seafood sustainability guide produced in india. it's a calendar the details what species can be eaten when and which should be avoided in certain seasons. for each fish recollected what they would be awarded which was publicly available. only lister know rich which of the months which the fish know is known to breed the months very recent of particular fish should be awarded. to
2:49 pm
that the months very dark fish breeds or the fish which gets caught along with the fish. some eaten chaya is a mumbai resident who found out about the calendar a year ago and now adios to it strictly when cooking for our family did to you even though i really like my friends 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. 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 end unanimously on the entire menu and bad cans and that kind of makes
2:50 pm
it cool for us 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 office to go not knowing what was. 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 it why like when was this court is this fish fresh. the team behind the calendar looks the behavioral change can someday result in a shift in seafood demand and supply. legen only goes 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 consumer and automatically fishermen can change i want the
2:51 pm
consumer to nor the fisherman as the fish in the nor the fish even though the fisherman i think it can work like that. normal trading has not yet resumed following the crew not related lockdowns 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 just 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 speak to the designer has found a solution and it's environmentally friendly it has still wheels and. both on the water. and dry land. i guess louts it's travels with his unique invention every which way across latvia
2:52 pm
. the designer loves to delve into nature quite literally. having a little camper that you can take in some 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 that's the most most fun about it. a lot being designed this invention is a houseboat cycle just a few quick tweaks on the bicycle times into a boat it's power to buy an electric outboard motor and has room for 2 people under 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
2:53 pm
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 light so you has to be charging ports so it's a little tiny tiny little house on the water so you know there's nothing there's nothing like that i think. 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 planet i think of its growth i think that's the nature of think i think of the piece that harmony. whenever he wants to move on all i need 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.
2:54 pm
so far i've been going through all sorts of like really really hardcore 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 2.
2:55 pm
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 the break his invention is a perfect match for him it also serves as a mini camp or. the captain's cabin can be changed into a little bedroom financial 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 a fashion designer from india and we've traveled to indonesia to see how a company is making the production of thread more sustainable that's all we have for you today i hope you enjoyed today's show and had many takeaways from it we'll see you again next week until then stay safe and take good care of yourselves and your loved ones. the.
2:56 pm
