with me, your host megumi. 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 wave crests, trucks and 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 a connection to nature, the concept of bio fill. the architecture tries to satisfy this desire, includes building with the natural materials, bringing light into people's homes as much as possible and connecting a building's 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 asked its residents if it improves their daily

lives. would instead of concrete curbs rather than hard edges. the style of architecture that you love the result is building according to the principles of buying a philip architecture jacket. more garcia know, is the architect of the freebooter, or you could be here in the ditch city of abstract out one of the key elements of the body. feel that your approach is to create a direct connection with nature and we created by using, you know, natural materials that, that simulates or are connected with these really and experience should be true to nature. wooden slats run around the entire building, ensuring optimal riding conditions and privacy. the sense movement was monitored

for a whole year, so the slats could be aligned perfectly. another fundamental concept of trial for like architecture is that interior and exterior space should merge into one. as soon as you know, we wake up in this in this room, we can already open all and have a direct connection to the tyros and to the natural of the water. the freebooter, a special construction method, only cost about 10 percent more than a conventional $12.00 families moving each with $120.00 square metres of living space. 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 move around the house during the day and

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 graphed. it's moot people love it. how 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 label biofilm, like architecture. garcia and i was already thinking on a much larger scale. past with this current project,

my toe says it involves living units that can be extended at will it has so many benefits. there's a high demand for these kind of the buildings who are really foresee there in the future. there was, there would be more and more buildings designed with bio fuel approach. the freebooter residents have no doubt that their quality of life has improved since moving in your life 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 play play 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, from the rooftops of paris. in the course of history to see the future calm and crew, all 3 of 31, very cow standing on the ground in the city of

it's the 1st of its kind in the world and they cannot get seasick. we studied so and you would see after the fits in area in the university study, 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 mail produces about 600 liters of milk. each cow of the sorts herself when she's no one goal of this pioneer project, is to produce a sustainable as possible i don't 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 easy to farm recycles waste from the city is nutritious food on the menu of grass cuttings from nearby us. look at beaches and go forces, as well as a bridge from the local bakery, the floating solar panels next to the farm supply. for this project originated in the united states. we were involved in a broad new york city health 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 could came in or out the city. and then peter, my partner here realized what's going on. we are in the trouble.

the 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, taking shape on the roof of a train. paris is a city with lots of enthusiasm for a and the city administration has launched several projects as part of a program on about one quarter of the space over 20 minutes of done an impressive job of planting some 30 cartons of mainly regional fruit vegetables. and without resorting to pesticides or other chemicals, they relied on to special growing methods that the 1st method is using vertical color. the roots are completely out in the open air where they can

be sprayed with nutrients in a closed system. is a 2nd 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 tops with the fresh fruit and vegetables. this week to increase the project reaches completion in 2022, in order to supply this is already the case in iraq today. several times a week. electric vehicles used to deliver hundreds of liters of no milk isn't the way of designing and the fella paying the next farm on the

water next to this one. and that will be a farm with fur tical farming, but also with chickens. so in that way, we create a kind of floating food strip over here to put the demand for local and healthful products is what's driving the organic way. along with the fact that 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 now much of it is actually avoidable, and it cost the industry hundreds of millions of euros, while $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. dishes here appears with sustainable ingredients and without wastage . that is the concept of helsinki's miller restaurant. the name means 0.0 was him and his 1st restaurant 3 european cooks founded in 20181 from serbia. one from spain and one from portugal, they continually come up with new ways to avoid waste on the waste product already eaten by the course tomorrow. and after being used to most of the times on 95 percent of the times being compost. that's what makes us different for just 6 course niels are created in the kitchen among today's dishes, grilled romaine lettuce with black currents and

a spicy fish sauce. it is served with sturgeon on marinated tomatoes. the food is also a feast for the responsibly produced ingredients. the dishes become an ethnic purity, an experience in the process of growing a star jones to produce cover your plate is a lot of males. a sturgeon's burford reuse of both for our consumption. it's like a really beautiful me of like a really beautiful slice right normally. traditionally they just like being thrown that way. planning their menus, corazon restaurant can be quite a challenge, always bearing in mind how to provide of any kind our many of the produce the has to offer where among the ones that money into the produce or what we've won. so the producers inform us on what they have available

everywhere. we change like 3 items. fundamentally, these are only strong national grown coffee grounds. the cooks turn them into mushroom that gives it sugar syrup, maids. the restaurants interior, the employees, clothes and even the utensils are all part of the system. the concept. everything is made from recycled materials. the idea of restaurants without waste has most spread to many other european cities . villages pray at his germany's 1st 0 waste restaurant to serve exclusively beacon dishes made with locally produced ingredients just says in finland,

anything left over goes into the restaurant's home composting machine to be turned into a soil, substitute and returned to the farmers in the 0 waste to 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 helsinki, restaurant manager and evaluates to day's scraps. he uses an app to measure the miniscule amounts. he recommends the out for conventional restaurants as well. this is a very useful, truthful tool for the russians to actually save money and give the understands of how much their money you throw away. the restaurant has its own micro brewery, during the beer production process,

grain residues of humility. it's a waste product. this in turn becomes a dessert, blueberries, on ice cream from the grain residues with a coffee, complete child care about flavor. our goal is not told it's 1st cycle, it's to reuse and kind of free deuce the usage of the new energy to create something new. so so for us, the recycling is the last part in our operations. 0 waste, the compromising endeavor to make 0 percent waste 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 doozy has a raising the best chefs with their fast chips from the need to

a social conscience. these clothes are made by pressure to quit companies 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 disadvantage, women, disadvantaged people, especially women. but we create fashion, quite 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

a one hour board background, for example, or became so violations of human trafficking. and we also work with some of that on our we've made former the label of fires and of series fabrics sold stock or materials donated by prestigious, the tying companies which prefer not to be named our process is upside down. so based on what we have and based on what we fly in the a week or 2 out of a product is in charge of obtaining the founder. he travels throughout italy to find a main thing about fabrics, maybe mentally, which is something really, really typical of the blocks of friends and receive
