. more and more people have recently switched to 2 wheelers. only this route is to become part of a cycle expressway, for the capital over the next few years. how do we want to travel? how do we want to live? i'll be looking into these questions on my journey today. sustainable travel. how does it work? and what can you discover when you're away from the popular sites? that's what i want to find out. so i made appointments with experts here, but also in the small town. nearby because there they have a university that's completely focused on the topic off sustainability. well, i'm curious. the future of travel is also a concern for amsterdam. a city very much affected by mass tourism explains how you can discover a tourist magnet like venice in a different way. nature profits from visitor management as the game's even world
5:32 am
heritage site near berlin shows you the great weather where you taking me to the temple of the field. one of my favorite places, i'll tell you why it is in ecology and feels yest, she give tourist on the topic of sustainable gorilla in the 1st stop on our route is the huge area of the former, temperate off airport in the middle of the capital globally, how did you get into sustainable tourism? how did you discover the topic? first of all i study did as about my real interest in actually developed right here in berlin. but people don't generally associate big cities with sustainability.
5:33 am
is such a melting pot. and so many creative ideas take shape here, or this is where sustainability is being redefined and where it needs to be. i've come across so many great projects and i thought this has to be spread to the whole world. let me read what you said. this is one of your favorite places in berlin, why? you just can't find anything like this anywhere else. it's a great example of how enormous open spaces can be used. so they offer something for people, not always just for profit. this is not just screen space. how is this field used today? as a for everything to do with recreation, an exercise as a place to get together, you can meet friends in the fields and during the coronavirus time, social distancing is no problem here. if it is a huge gap, then you've got
5:34 am
a community garden, one of the 1st pioneer projects, and it was laid out in 2010 and really kicked off this whole wave of gardening, urban gardening. so it's a place for people to get together and learn to get closer to nature. sustainability and tourism is a big challenge and it applies above all to major populous cities in europe, such as venice, barcelona, or amsterdam. sure, because of the travel restrictions over tourism declined anyway, but how will it be after the crisis will cure isn't change. for example, in amsterdam for years residents have been complaining about party tourists. but when the lockdown was imposed in the spring and eerie quiet fell over, amsterdam came almost a ghost star in certain places. and it also showed how dependent economy the city center had become only tourism. i think that's really unhealthy. so it's also
5:35 am
a signal to say this has to change the city of them. stew dampers took action against mass tourism in 2018, prohibiting offers of tours and holiday apartments at the tourist hot spots. the tourism tax was raised and no more souvenir shops were allowed to open. but martin would like to see even more steps making use of the enforced break. he and some friends launched a petition before it was a good time to say ok, of course you want to be economy to recover and tourists come back, but there need to be a better as we don't want to go back to the situation before the crisis and that's why we started a petition to say ok, we don't want to go back to situation. it's evolved by 918, but put a limit on the number of tourists coming through the city tonight and state $30000.00 citizens of amsterdam agree. now the city council is obliged to look at their proposals and the city has already announced plans to seek new cads in
5:36 am
managing to raise them start to 3 different effects of the visitor economy that have a negative effect on the livability. one is the anti-social behavior that is caused mainly by bigger groups that come here to drink that make a lot of noise. don't respect the locals, the local estate puke on the street. that is a certain group. thank you. have to manage differently. the other part is that in the old city center, in some spots, the pressure on public speech has to be. so there you have to invest in crowd management and also invest for the long term to make much more parts to see the interesting part of the solution for crowd control might involve directing visitors to less popular areas of amsterdam, but no concrete plans for achieving sustainable goals are yet in place. will there be any real change once the crisis passes? stephen code does doesn't believe so. he worked for years as a tourism manager in amsterdam until he was left with no doubt the city could not
5:37 am
carry on with its current approach to travel. i changed my perspective, the world has changed. i promoted amsterdam in the never lived in new york and director of the board of tourism and promoted it as much as i could until i realized that i was busy to destroy what i think was of value. and therefore i changed. but i'm seen as a traitor by the industry. is he a traitor or a visionary? either way, he doesn't think much of the city's current proposals. i've seen for the last 30 years of them saying we're going to distribute tourists in time and then place 30 years and 30 years it's not been able to achieve anything. and the reason for that is people follow people. people go where the masses are
5:38 am
small, hidden places away from masters and that's what clouds berlin, tourists are all about. why are you taking me to this place? i love the mist because to me this embodies the noise district sustainability scene . in this shop in the she like east area of berlin to fashion designers and a photographer have come together that shows us her collection on the ground floor, clothing made from surplus of leftovers. usually this stuff is thrown away, but here it provides the material for a completely new clothes. this is pretty cool, isn't it? but that's not our clothes down here. and if
5:39 am
you want special, i'll give you special photographer the here and now us has her studio in the basement. she specializes in santa type and environmentally friendly photo printing process with a traditional handicraft that she also teaches and to show that sustainability is also possible with everyday products. clothing shows me the surplus shop on back money us in the district of quotes back. there's a salvage still, he can become a salvage genius self. everything you see he would normally get thrown away, though it's still perfectly edible. there are goods here that are close to their best before date or just beyond. there are now 6 of these salvage stores in berlin . here to waste products are being reduced.
5:40 am
as you know, that looks nice. 100 percent elements of eagan excel, vist. i feel really good buying this one. the last stop on the tour through sustainable berlin is the mock illinois in fights back here, you will find regional and artie's in the products. there are bakers who produce their goods locally and fresh produce from the surrounding area. historic 19th century market building had become a desolate place for cheap discounters in the early 2000. it's now the market hall is again, a place for small traders. and for people who want to be inspired that
5:41 am
looks good. so do what has to be done to make sustainability, even more popular? whatever this is, i think it's very important. his to stane ability to become the norm was it would be great if we no longer had to talk about where the doodle, sustainable hot spots were sold. rather as a tourist you could just think, hey, cool, i'd rather go to these great little shops run with lots of love that the individual and we'll have a totally different experience on course, i mean the gowns and so instead of rushing off with all the masses you can come here and take your time and look around, you don't just type on corpse we're talking about. but that also means that you have to plan before the trip and pick out the individual spots. oh yeah. yes of
5:42 am
course. but that's the nice thing about it. it's fun to plan a trip, but i was a little slow down a little, which is an issue in general. and you have to put a little effort into it. thank you very much and thanks for your time. if you like those, as i got a very welcome, i hope i was able to give you a couple of insights and get you interested in what's going on here of in for c.n.n. . but there is hardly a city in europe. there is suffered so much for a master as we, as venice. how things look this year during the pandemic? that's going to show us john paul most said he's the head of a company that offers boat tours around the city. so it, today's meet the locals. we're going to take you to
5:43 am
hi. i'm j.p. and we're in venice and i live in venice. and right now i'm going to show my face just a little bit. but because the regulations, i have to keep this back on so well. cover up my ugly face right now. we're or in canada. i just and i live here in this, in this area. i'm going to show you a different kind of venice, not the tourist venice, but my event is the venice that i like to participate in. we're going into the out tonight, which is one of my favorite places because we're talking about boats and everybody that works here is in love with boats. you can't be in venice without loving boats, because part of the history and what we're in right now, this at one time, is one of my favorite places to be was the biggest shipyard in the entire world.
5:44 am
the 1st kind of factory lines started here in venice. everything we're on the island of those are now where we're based and where a lot of our fun happens. it's not just we work here, but we also on my off days, i like to come here to, to hang out because it's just a really beautiful island. it's an open area where there's lots of grass and you feel nature here. you can this is where the lagoon start savannah's and where i think the fun happens because you are not allowed to skateboard at all in venice so that i work in this beautiful island. it's amazing that i have all this space idea behind classic boats. venice was to create
5:45 am
a company that was offering sustainable choices as it pertains to the marine, the marine industry, so to speak in venice. so we thought to take classical craftsmanship, traditional craftsmanship that was venetian, and in particular a boat like this, which is some people thought which is a traditional venetian sailing boat and rowing boat. and to convert it instead of with an electric engine so that we could rent this without driver. and so that gas could come to venice and experience the venetian lagoon in a sustainable way. but also in the traditional way from this year, from 2020 looking at venice has suffered a lot in terms of tourism. but on the flip of that, we had a lot of guests who are looking for sustainable tourism, which was incredible, which was a big blow for us. and the cleanliness of the city definitely improved. it
5:46 am
was a pleasure to welcome you inside venice to the day in the life of someone living in venice. and i hope to see you soon. and now we leave early and i want to go to the town of the bus, but it is only about 50 kilometers from here. and because we are already on the subject of sustainability, of course, i'll get there by public transport. but we regularly show you your videos from all over the world and this one on skis through the austrian alps. maybe it's a little inspiration for your next winter vacation. after the pandemic
5:48 am
i'll be there in just half an hour of us, but is a town shaped by its industrial history. a good place to find out more about sustainability because there's a university beer that deals with the most diverse aspects of sustainability, including tourism. i have an appointment with my he's a research associate at the center for sustainable tourism at the university of utah spider. how did you get interested in sustainable tourism? sympathy and yeah, i studied here at the university avenue and my master's in sustainable tourism management management. that's always been an interest of mine. i've always enjoyed travelling and i've seen what kind of affects tourism. and that's how i 1st got into the subject to him. or he,
5:49 am
how would you define sustainable tourism in and that children as not had to go towards was sustainable tourism is part of the overall concept of sustainability. it's about keeping the impact caused by tourism to an absolute minimum and giving the americans not only through impact on nature on the but on the local population of the prefer call for the negative also for negative effects have to be reduced. so the tourism can be used as a positive factor for the region's local populations. and for some not all of what can viewers or travelers like me pay attention to in order to be as sustainable as possible while travelling to with different design. i was through there, it's actually not all that hard for a traveler to behave sustainably on a trip. the 1st thing of course, is to consider where you want to go. your own region can also be an attractive
5:50 am
option. doesn't always have to be a shopping weekend in new york. you can also have a great, a shopping trip in berlin. it's easier than you'd say for lots of money. so my dad, the through the 2nd saying once you've decided are you want to go choose what kind of hotel or lodging you want to stay in a family run operation were certified to business. if it's your own or you know quite a few as you can tell me how it is, but the booking sites then when i get off, it's a question of what you want to do at your destination. there are good and small restaurants. get around on foot or public transportation of a month, forecast. and that's a lot of these things to do. even before that i learn a lot of experience. things learn something about the culture of the people. at the
5:51 am
same time, you're doing something good for the environment, the locals, for the before. there are many insider tips around here. for example, in beech forest, it's been the world heritage site since 2011. well, as is the case with insider tips, they don't reform. and then the problem starts the normal weekend in the summer of 2020, cars lined the streets and out of people have come from berlin, life station, even as far away as munich to see the gloom scene, forest part of the biosphere reserve. that's a natural world. heritage site village. there's basic one big intersection and sometimes drivers will park in it so carelessly that nobody else can get through, including buses, fire engines, and farm vehicles. it's a big problem we've got around here. since you know,
5:52 am
as go to clear the gloom scene, forest part of the natural world heritage site tourists flock to the beach trees from all over even more. so during the coronavirus lockdown, the villagers aren't the only ones affected. the conservationists have had their hands full as well. fixing damage, warning signs, and trail markers. is not only south. of course, it's a lot of work expensive too. if you have to keep renewing signs in an area this large, it's also an indication of anger and frustration. but i can't understand why anybody would be face the science. it doesn't help anyone. it's just being destructive or some people don't want any tourism here at all. only the bare beginnings of the infrastructure for it are popping up at the forest dead. a parking lot for 10 cars and the natural world heritage bus that runs 5 times a day. when somebody were always blocking my yard to our
5:53 am
parking in front of my house, it would eventually get on my nerves. the villagers would like to see fewer cars on their streets. but the increasing bike traffic is causing problems for the community to seem growing numbers of cyclists. and it's very dangerous. when i travel here on the rural, i waited one a winding road with a 100 kilometer an hour speed limit for families on the road with children. it's an untenable situation and we need a cycle path so people can reach the natural world heritage site in safety. with no end in sight of the tourists streaming to the ancient beach forest villages hoping for more support from the state government. other monk shows us what sustainable tourism looks like. he needs is to the family garden, a landscape park on the side of a former rolling mill. we climb up
5:54 am
a crane once part of the industrial fabric that shape the of us by the at 1st glance. and i only see in the street here, what does this have to do with tourism? and they are, yes, we're working on making the connection. we want to make wasn't just real heritage. we've got the buildings here presentable and available for people to use. and we've already made a start with the family garden, for example, where we're standing now here on the cross. as you can see, it's been a success every year 150000, people come here to the garden to see what there is to discover old and new. and what is the idea behind it just showing industry from the past, or is there more to it? you have no beach? no. see. here we have industrial culture. this is basically where everything got
5:55 am
started. i wouldn't want to work with what we've got. we just have to get what's already here and we're working closely together with the university in the field of tourism. and we're trying to integrate the family garden as a tourist hot spot with other spots that we have in the region. all the aiming for sustainable tourism with sites that can be well accessed by public transport, bike or on foot. we're also trying to bring in sustainable astronomy with sustainable products. the words sustainable tourism is an overall concept and we're trying to do our bit yes, sustainable tourism is possible in the big city and you may
