we're going into the odyssey now, which is one of my favorite places because we're talking about boats and everybody that words here is in love with boats. you can't be in venice without loving boats because part of the history of what we're in right now. this at one time, this is one of my favorite places to be was the biggest shipyard in the entire world. and the 1st kind of factory lines started here in venice. pretty soon. we're on the island of chad closer now where we're based and where a lot of our fun happens is 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 starts of venice and where i think the fun happens to a little or if
11:16 pm
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 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 experienced a venetian lagoon in a sustainable way, but also in a traditional way from

this year, from 2020 looking at it. venice has suffered a lot in terms of tourism, but on the flip of that we had a lot of guest who were looking for sustainable tourism, which was incredible, which was a big plus for us. and the cleanliness of the city definitely improved. it was a pleasure to welcome you inside venice into the day in the life of someone living in venice. and i hope to see you soon. now we leave early and i want to go to the town of the bus by the it's only about 50 kilometers from here. and because we're already on the subject of sustainability, of course, i'll head there by public transport. we

11:19 pm
from berlin to us by the it takes an hour by car. the train is faster, i'll be there in just half an hour. give us by is a town shaped by its industrial history, a good place to find out more about sustainability. because there's a university there 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 madiba. how did you get interested in sustainable tourism? sympathy?
11:20 pm
yeah, i studied here at the university and earned my musters in sustainable tourism, attention, and management. that's always been an interest of mine, and i've always enjoyed travelling and i've seen what kind of affects the tourism. and that's how i 1st got into the subject or view. how would you define sustainable tourism in and that children as not had to go towards war? sustainable tourism is part of the overall concept of sustainability. it's about keeping the impact caused by tourism to an absolute minimum. giving the americans not only through impact on nature on the environment, but on the local population. often prefer call for use a negative also for negative effects have to be reduced. so that tourism can be used as a positive factor for the regions. the local populations and for what's a lot more of what can viewers or travelers like me pay attention to in order to be
11:21 pm
as sustainable as possible while travelling to with them. but it's design i though this through there, it's actually not all that hard for a traveler to behave sustainably on a trip. it's the 1st thing, of course, is to consider where you want to go. your own region can also be an attractive option. doesn't always have to be a shopping weekend in new york. you can also have a great a shopping trip and it's easier than you'd say for lots of money. so why get the second thing once you've decided or you want to go to choose what kind of hotel or lodging you want to stay in your family run operation were certified to business. if it's your own or you know quite a few, as you can tell, there are days by the booking sites. it's a target. then when i get off, it's a question of what you want to do at your destination. there are good and small
11:22 pm
restaurants get around on foot or public transportation of a month to full forecast. and i think none of these things are to do even before they got experience things, i once learned something about the culture of the people and the same time you're doing something good for the environment, the locals for the before. there are many insider tips around here. for example, beach forest. it's been the world heritage site since 2000. well, as is the case with insider tips, they don't stay secret for long. and then the problems start a normal weekend in the summer of 2020. cars lined the streets, and people have come from berlin live station, even as far away as munich to see the gloom scene, forest part of the biosphere reserve. that's
11:23 pm
a natural world heritage site. in their village there's basic, he would 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, as go declared the balloon scene forest part of the natural world heritage site. tourists have flocked to the beech 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. 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
11:24 pm
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 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 worry when 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 and safety with

no end in sight of the tourists streaming to the ancient beach forest villages hoping for more support from the state government. he shows us what sustainable tourism looks like. if you give us credit, he leads us to the family garden, a landscape park on the side of a former rolling mill. we clamber up a crane once part of the industrial fabric that shape the of us by the york at 1st glance. and i only see in the street here, what does this have to do with tourism? they are giving us, well, we're working on making the connection. we want to make wasn't just that 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 crane. you can see it's been
11:26 pm
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? well, we have no beach. no see. here we have and this is basically where everything got 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. other spots that we have in the region. meaning 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
