discovered subscribe to the documentary to a dairy farm on a floating platform in the netherlands is the 1st of its kind worldwide and more on that later in the show everyone and welcome to another edition of your acts with me, your host negatively. today we are focusing on creative sustainability projects

around europe. let's take a closer look at 2 more examples. but in the finnish capital, helsinki is the nation's 1st in the 0 waste restaurant, the southern german city of tribe, or leads the way in the fight against global warming. but 1st people who live in cities long for connection to nature, the concept of a bio fill. the architecture tries to satisfy this desire includes building with natural materials, bringing light into people's homes as much as possible and connecting of buildings, occupants with their natural surroundings. while the freebooter apartment complex in amsterdam was built, according to this principle, we went there to check it out and ask its residents if it improves their daily lives. noida

instead of concrete curves rather than hard edges, a style of architecture that loves life. the result of building according to the principles of buy and feel like architecture jacket, more garcia know, is the architect of the freebooter or me here in the depths city of amsterdam, one of the key elements of a by you feel if your approach is to create direct connection with nature and we created by using, you know, natural materials that, that simulates or are connected more, that is really an experience should be true to nature. wooden slats, to run around the entire building, ensuring optimal riding conditions and privacy. the sense of movement was monitored for a whole year, so just laughs, good, felines perfectly. another fundamental concept of prior for like, architecture,

is that interior and exterior space should merge into one. as soon as we, you know, we wake up in this, in this room, we can already open up and have a direct connection to the terrace and through the natural element of the water. the freebooter especial construction method, only cost about 10 percent more than a conventional $12.00. families live here each with $120.00 square metres of living space and they enjoy a special indoor climate and a house with close to 0 energy consumption. thanks to state of the art technology especially like this room because the sun around the house you're a day at the end of the day. it ends here and the light is very beautiful in this room. it's not just the light that special. the house appeals to all the senses.

when people come and visit, almost everybody wants to touch this part. it's girl, it's moot people love it. and the concept isn't only finding favor in amsterdam. these days greener buildings are built in many places using wood and other natural materials. owners and architects try to integrate the surrounding nature into their constructions, even if not always under the labor biofilm like architecture. garcia, i know, is already thinking on a much larger scale. as with this current project, my toe, since it involves living units that can be extended at will it has so many benefits. there's

a high demand for those kind of the buildings who are really foresee there in the future. there was, there would be more and more buildings designed with the biofuel approach. the freebooter residents have no doubt that their quality of life has improved since moving it to earth alive, changes, spaces, change. and there's so much more curvy ness. so the whole experience is completely different. i think more calming, perhaps, and more playful. playful. biofilm like architecture provides a green and holistic approach to living space and architectural concept with the future. so there we have a good example of future living. but what about the future of our food?

now, more people than ever are producing food in cities to promote locally grown products and reduce transport distances. for example, everything in these baskets was grown right here in the middle of berlin. well, urban farming is a concept that began some 15 years ago to unique projects in france and the netherlands are pioneering the way when it comes to producing food, closer to home, on the rooftops of paris. phoning in the quarter. he says he sees the future calm and crew of 3 of $31.00, very cow standing on the ground in the port city of rocks of the it's the 1st of its kind in the world and they cannot get seasick that we studied so and used for half the fits an area in the university

days stood if they can get seasick, but no, they said it's ok. so as you can see, the cows are fairy and relaxed and their fur is fairy shining. so dead means that they feel ok. they gave a lovely milk and a great amount of meal produces about 600 liters of milk. each cow to saw its self when she's milk. one goal of this pioneer project is to produce a sustainable is possible you ought to want to reconnect the citizens with food production citizens most. don't have the clue how much energy and loft it costs to produce a glass of milk. and it's important to reconnect them to avoid that they throw away difficult very easily from the city is nutritious food

on the menu or grass cuttings from it. once look at pictures of courses, as well as bread from local bakery floating solar panels next to the foam supplier. the idea for this project originated in the united states. we were involved in a broad take to new york city. and then hurricane say very badly. so after 2 days, there was no fresh food on the shelves anymore because everything was flooded. so no trucks good came in or out the city. and then peter, my partner here realized what's going on. we are in the travel project in rotterdam shows how urban farming can work with much shorter transport distances. the french capital,

paris he's proving this is possible with an area equal to 20 soccer pictures. the largest urban farming project in the world is taking shape on the roof of the train . paris is a city with lots of enthusiasm for and the city administration has launched several projects as part of the program. on about one quarter of the space, over 20 minutes of the unimpressive planting some 30 cartons of mainly regional fruit vegetables. and of course, without resorting to pesticides or other chemicals, they relied on 2 special growing message that the 1st method is using vertical columns. the roots are completely out in the open air, sprayed with nutrients in a closed system. and system is hydroponics.

we have horizontal cutters, along with the coconut pine substrate. as an arrow panix, the nutrients reach the plants water cycle. during the peak growing season, the roof the fresh fruit and vegetables this week reset to increase project completion in 2022. in order to supply this is already the case in iraq today several times a week. and electric vehicles used to deliver hundreds of liters of milk. but milk isn't on the agenda, so we are designing and the fella paying the next farm on the water next to this one. and that will be a farm with fur to go farming, but also with chickens. so in that way, we create a kind of floating forward strip over here at the moment from local unhealthful

products, as was driving the organic way. along with the fact that today a half the world's population lives in towns leave. it'll be 70 percent by the 23rd and that presents a challenge to society as a whole innovative concepts like the ones in paris and rotterdam, restaurants all over the world produce millions of tons of waste every year and how much of it is actually avoidable. and it cost the industry hundreds of millions of euros. well $1.00 restaurant in finland aims to reduce its waste output to basically 0. the owners do this through creative cooking and recycling. so how about an ice cream from beer residue? here's a closer look. probably dishes here appears with sustainable ingredients,

and without that is the concept of helsinki's mill, a restaurant. the name means 0. waste. none 0 was criminals. 1st 0 waste. restaurant 3 european cooks founded it in 20181 from serbia, one from spain and one from portugal. they continually come up with new ways to avoid waste on the waste by your product and heat them by the cost to morrow. and after being used to most of the times on 95 percent of the times being compost. that's why make us different. 4 to 6. horse kneels are created in the kitchen. among today's dishes, grilled romaine lettuce with black currents and a spicy fish sauce. it is served. sturgeon on marinated

tomatoes. the food is also a feast for the responsibly produced ingredients. the dishes become an epicurean experience. in the process of growing a star jones to produce cars, that is a lot of byproduct, males are sturgeons, but they are perfectly use of both for our consumption. it's like a really beautiful mean, like a really beautiful place, but normally traditionally they just like being thrown that way. the planning the menus for is there restaurant can be quite a challenge. always bearing in mind how to prevent waste of any kind our memory of some on what the produce a hostile for where among the ones there munging to the producer what we've won. so every week the producers inform us on what they have available. and then normally, every week already couple of weeks we change like 3 items. fundamentally,

these are all structural growth on coffee grounds. the cooks turn the mention mushroom that gets put sugar syrup, made the restaurants interior, the employees, clothes and even the utensils are all part of the sustainable concept. everything is made from recycled materials. the idea of restaurants without waste has moved spread to many other european cities. britain's pray at is germany's 1st 0 waste restaurant to serve exclusively beacon dishes made with locally produced ingredients. just as in finland, anything left over goes into the restaurant composting machine to be turned into a soil substitute, and returned to the farmers. there's 0 waste,

a west restaurant in milan, italy focuses on old, nearly forgotten italian recipes, simple traditional dishes, elevated to form a status such as pumpkin marinated in vinegar for the apples filled with chestnuts and caramelized nuts. back in-house inky restaurant manager and evaluates to day's scraps. he uses an app to measure the miniscule amounts he recommends they have for conventional restaurants as well. a very useful, truthful tool for the russians to actually save money and give the understanding. so how much their money you throw away the restaurant has its own microbrewery. during the beer production process, grain breads, and use of humility in some ways product this in turn becomes a dessert. blueberries, on ice cream from the grain residues with a coffee,

complete check arab flavor. our goal is not told it's 1st cycle. it's through to reuse. and kind of reduce the usage of the new energy to create something new. so so for us, the recycling is the last part in our operation heroes waste the compromising endeavor to make 0 per cent. the rule rather than the exception. and if you want to see more reports about food and your favorite recipes, then be sure to check out our you tube channel galaxies. stories and doozie has the smell amazing. the best chefs with their fast chips, from meat dishes, to decontaminate, and all the recipe secrets. europe's diversity is

a smorgasbord of my list. i mean, i subscribe and enjoy d. w. food it's not enough to simply buy clothes anymore. many consumers want to know how their clothing is made while this jacket, for example, is made out of an old sleeping bag. well, up cycling and recycling are growing trends in the fashion industry. the italian company project to quit, for example, applies waste not want not principle. it makes clothes with discarded fabrics from high end fashion houses and style doesn't have to be compromise in the name of sustainability. this is a pressure point, a with a social conscience. these clothes are made by pressure to acquit a company that prides itself on producing clothing in a way that benefits the buyer. producers in the environment. in general.

we produce fashion for women, fashion collections by recovering leftover fabrics come from their luck story industry. and by employing these advantage where women are disadvantaged people, especially women, but we create fashion, recall elections, and for winter. this is the current collection for fall and winter. each piece can only be made until the fabric runs out. production takes place at the company's factory in the italian city of verona. the company employs around 150 people, many of them women who were given a 2nd chance through working here 70 percent come from. i will now board background, for example, or things of violations of human trafficking. and we also what we did on that on

out with inmates and former inmates, the label of fires and of series fabrics unsold stock or materials donated by prestigious and tying companies which prefer not to be named our process is upside down. so based on what we have and based on what we find, we can give to our clients a product mark open, nancy is in charge of obtaining the founder. he travels throughout italy to find the main thing about 5 fabrics that are made in italy, which is something really, really typical of the lot of the likes of brands and receiving those leftovers makes our brand very, very special. other european designers like dutchman to run lunching are also

joining the sustainability trend key to recycle is hiding in materials for his clothes. french israeli designer, bunch of member morning out up cycles of old video and concert tapes and weaves them into colorful fabrics and then their spanish label. eco house, which recycles plastic from the oceans. for kids this year, project to create received a prestigious green carpet fashion award. in the past, the event has hosted a listers like sophia loren valentino caravanning, as well as calling for one to say a word. because of our way involvement into an attic or fashion with the social and environmental values. and we have been desiring 4 days a word for

a long time. and so we were very happy to hear the summer that we have been meaning to do to receive these very important awards. and it cheeseman for style and sustainability which are set to carry on into the future. the southern german city of freiburg is 900 years old. but it's still the most ecologically advance city in the country. thanks to solar panels, car, free zones and creative urban planning. well, freiburg has become a leader in sustainable living. so we went there to find out more and yet extremely modern and progressive is a 6 year contract with europe's largest public. net 0 energy presence in space for the great barrier on the historical merchants placing from the middle ages, traditions, and a view to the future,

a combined in the city of 230000 inhabitants. and the ecological thinking is almost a matter of course. the sustainability manager of the university of fraud. all she shows is the so-called james bond, the $250.00 metre long on the ground system, cools the university buildings using ground. it's a simple system that saves on the cyclical system, uses the groundwater for cooling. it gets warm and then it's punch back into the ground groundwater as running here. for example. it saves a lot of electricity at steam for the cool that she came to for it will just probably environmental management on the roof of the university library. there's a huge solar power plant. the university's focus on sustainability in the next thing, you know, in recent years, there have been really committed students demanding more and more effort from the

university and more transparency. now the university will no longer invest in companies that make weapons or that pursue the exploitation of fossil or nuclear energy sources until also studied in fribourg, the travel and food blog, and knows the most beautiful corners of the city. she's proud of her environmentally conscious adopted home sustainability is a top priority in fribourg. i think everyone here has a bicycle or 2 every year, tourists flock to the city in southwest germany, or enjoy the regional wine in the picturesque, narrow streets. in summer there's a very special way we call these tiny streams the fiber. there are a quintessential part of fribourg. the water comes from the river, devise and flows practically through the whole city. legend says if you step on one
