wood comes from sustainable forestry to create a fine thread from the hard material is 1st turned into chips. they are then mixed with an organic solvent finally the resulting pulp is turned into long strands of fiber. this requires just a fraction of the 2700 liters of water needed to make a cotton t. shirt. 10 years ago a more sustainable production branch was on think about that down there as the textile company in central java was on the brink of collapse the company belonged to michelle chalk such a boutros father after his death she took over the reins she was still only in her mid twenty's and experienced that nearest. that get situations because something might be a crisis so bad by my local fire it was still in the house like a bat that's the place and so it was that we couldn't pay. install windows

fans. we call it category 5 winds in smoke liquid it was challenging and but it also set the course of my journey. young businesswoman took decisive action. took home loans and invested in modern technology significantly increasing the factories efficiency reducing its impact on the environment and. i think. partly responsible for what happened with. climate change and all the ways that. at least from my part how can i be more sustainable. she has also made changes in the company's cutting production all of the material waste is now repurposed being turned into everything from baskets to furniture the upcycling is done by older members of the community as well as disabled people from the region that enables them to supplement their income. down there are some ploys

about $8000.00 workers they work about 40 hours a week get overtime pay until the insurance which is far from standard practice in indonesia. shellshocked also patro wants to motivate people and provide new impetus a businesswoman who takes an active interest in the wellbeing of 1st stuff including training and career opportunities. 35 year old me has been working here for 7 years she performs quality control. if it's nice and the company has supported me. they've been really helpful. they finance my studies the university. and the pain here is better than at other similar companies. that before i started working here i had to jump somewhere else. that's how i can appreciate the difference. to me because some of the food.

is still a long road ahead to achieve completely sustainable production but the boss is confident that she can succeed. change. but the people are still. that there is how do you think. the onset of the corona virus has also led to changes that down there as the company is now making protective masks from production waste even a pandemic sustainability remains an important issue. now we turn to pile and when like in india farmers often lift their harvests billows of smoke since goblin dioxide and other chemicals into the atmosphere contributing to the greenhouse gases wasn't climate change but one young woman has had an enterprising idea about how to make that practice go up in smoke.

after every harvest thailand's rice farmers burn off the remaining rice straw and stubble to clear the land. the acrid smoke carries far and wide on the wind. in the northern province of lumping the harvest is underway since early in the morning women have been out in the fields cutting the sheaves with their sickles. there's a lot of straw left on the field typically a kilogram a kilogram of rice if it's left to rot it will release me fame a potent greenhouse gas but burning the straw emits the c o 2 and creates fine particulate matter that's harmful to people and the environment. one common one wants to change things after completing her studies in bangkok she decided to return to her home village and develop an alternative

meaning. i mean if we're going to. get patients very hard when i grow rice and. it takes a long time and after the. saw it. it's very nice that when i come to my hometown i don't share in that life will rise much i find solutions for. learning for food for the entrepreneur rice troy's not waste to be disposed of but a valuable resource. she pays the farmers the equivalent of $0.03 a kilo. the golden stalks abroad by the truckload to honey or buy factory. here destroys chopped up because the air is full of fine straw particles everyone

has to wear a face mask. then the small pieces of straw a mixed with hot water no chemicals are added but the mixture has to boil for 4 hours. that produces a pulpy mess which is then cleaned and dried. on the factory floor we meet up again with the farmers from the rice field. this is a very good thing that i salute it used to be that we had no work after the rice harvest. but with this factory job i can improve my income whether you want to even go to. the pump is used to make biodegradable paper and packaging but machines to process the pulp are expensive so the entrepreneur exports the raw material to india we have a customer because in india that ason watch off morning and table read no

fresh rolls and they last off the raw material and they contact us and they add their e interesting you know our product because. our product and the special feature of the table way is a fin. coating of rice starch which helps the product resist greased heat and liquids in a 2 hour test with a popeye a salad the dish stayed leakproof. the next day she pays a visit to the city of chiang mai the economic and cultural heart of northern thailand. at chiang mai university they also conduct research into rice the auditorium is designed to resemble a grain of rice. here scientists support thai startups with their expertise. you are one come one would like to manufacture

takeaway food packaging made of rice straw in her own factory she hopes it will become financially feasible that she's especially interested in the research as work on improving the rice starch film so that it takes longer to dissolve. but do people here actually need tableware made of rice straw. as in most cities in thailand life here is largely outdoors the hundreds of street vendors and food stands all use disposable containers. if you want to start up your own production one vendor says and pay attention to the sizes of the bowls shouldn't be too large or the customers will think the portions are too small and the price is important one bought a piece would be ok. he was up to one but is the equivalent of $0.03. off. cuts that somebody.

and as the saying goes the rice farmers of lump of learned how to turn straw into gold. because burning it would be a terrible waste. now millions of children are employed. in the textile sector in india this is just one of the many sicko's would be made to work in leaving me to help sustain their families from one day to the mixed a more profit organization in mumbai is making sure some of the city's poorest children have the right and the chance to please and not to get what are you about the realities of life. the pilot of the is not is not just didn't let it stimulating the mind but it's also very powerful in a way that it's breaking so many baddiel is that a comedian and kids are allowed to be kings again just plain simple enjoy their childhood.

i just believe that working with these kids and you know what they. truly need and it's not about deserve the you need there's a danger in. a very young ages you're likely you can mourn them we keep grieving about why the world is such a bad these and it's filled with such bad elements and you know why is somebody at a criminon and all of that in this world but if you trace it back it always goes back to their childhood. with kindness and love and empathy i think the theory levy the way this whole world functions.

became more challenging for us still people about. the power of believe what is right to believe what's meant to evade being leveled all of these things of any. and because there are still many of the problems is still evolving i do you ever then i mean who talk about believe in a child is going on we saw it became it becomes even now many challenging for us to articulate this but having said that i mean congo of the mind is even worse if you ask me because i can get of a dolphin he says. it's like i'm reaching today you can't see it but it's happening all around us mental health and mental well being is very similar beat the can't see it so if you don't see if you don't think it's a problem you suddenly want to in a bad mood you fight with your husband mother or father whatever whether it will be a pretty much in a bad mood the rest of the d. just imagine that d.

is your life many of these kids have had a bad stock life. and it just goes on for the rest of their lives. and then in my life and. i don't believe in the mention those things there are people believe it. is full of belief systems. it wasn't that how lucky for me the allowed me to be you i am as long as i was financially independent. judging came on you when we realize that you don't have any money because you are nobody finds. is a very easy. that's the one word concept is one even. so it becomes a game and it becomes very challenging for us. we walk with almost 55000 good everybody and unless and until these kids are mentally not. able to understand was right from wrong by themselves. and nothing is going to egypt.

press it trying till between the e.u. and u.k. is done a latest say it's fair and balanced the british prime minister calls it a small christmas present. and latin american countries began ambitious immunization programs but the worst hit among them has yet to approve the coronavirus back saying to find out why brazil is lagging behind. i'm rebecca ritter's welcome to the program we start in the u.s. city of nashville in tennessee where a large explosion has caused widespread damage emergency crews are at the same it's believed a pocked vehicle blew up in the downtown area i witnesses say they heard a loud boom early on christmas morning followed by black smoke and billowing flames on social media local said the blast blew out windows and damage surrounding

buildings police say they believe the explosion was intentional. let's go straight to nashville now a journalist mike saliba is following events for us mike police saying this was intentional what do they mean by that well it's right about 630. right here we had all the stores on the scene were investigating a suspicious recreational vehicle. and just after the recall reported to the hazmat crews the explosion happened so it looks like it was intentional but there's no other motive this still too soon to say i mean this picture is quite alarming lot of damage done can you give us an idea a sense of the area i mean we know it's a business to district the c.b.d. but but to walk us through events and how they happened. well it is

a business district it's more of an entertainment district this is right off broadway which is kind of the main honky tonks and different entertainment district but there are just a minimal amount of residents residences there in some of the overlying apartment buildings. does the timing of this event early on christmas morning tell us anything we i believe as high as we know there were no fatalities does it does the timing of the event tell us anything about the motive. thing about the motive at this point we don't know but fortunately the streets are pretty empty it's 30 this morning we do have confirmed that there were 3 injuries 3 people take kerry to the hospital but nothing significant so i guess it is a good thing that there was not very few people there. police why that this i mean the area is being called an office where we've been told police worried that they could be other explosions. nothing nothing known at this

point but. seasoned local authorities are on scene and do we know if any of the businesses in the area perhaps have received threats in recent days or the anything else that could give us some hints there there's no real motive towards that but yet still it's a developing story we're going to find out more as the hours progress into it all right mike sullivan thanks very much for the update. after months of uncertainty the united kingdom and their pain union have struck a last minute deal on their post relationship the long ago shared of agreement mains trade across the english channel will remain tariff free despite the breakthrough not everyone is happy. much of the british press held it as a breakfast mous the deal itself more important than the details after months of missed

deadlines intense talks the prime minister to try to reset the e.u. u.k. relationship i think this deal means a new stability and a new certainty in what has sometimes been a fractious and difficult relationship we will be your friend your ally your supporter and indeed never let it be forgotten you were not the one market reactions to the new deal have varied from relief to despair it feels really good to live in an independent country again i didn't put the brakes a i have really guides to not be part of you to put it more well i'm delighted we've got to be. met in what we view of history have come to read between the great . david. fishing rights had been one of the slipperiest subjects the final deal left the u.k. fishing industry disappointed european boats will still drop nets in british waters

our correspondents in london and brussels big mouth and alexandra from naaman welcome to the both of you big prime minister of bars johnson has achieved what he promised when he took office finally getting bracks it done how has he been selling this agreement. he sold it as the big christmas tree he pulled it out under the christmas tree for a video on social media and was that encouraging britons to read it after a long christmas lunch in case anybody had time for that 2000 page document on a day like that but no seriously it's really all about him keeping his promise he was elected on the brick sedation he said i will have this deal with the european union and he is able to keep his promise not as easily as he has said this would be bought britain does have control of its money borders laws and still has

a de deal with the european union and business reactions a sign of who is a sigh of relief however people also know that this is the 1st radio in history that actually erect barriers instead of taking them down but nevertheless for birds johnson is a day of victory or how 7 much of a victory is it really i mean for him personally politically it is a victory but he did have to make some concessions have backed down on demand such as overfishing. he had to make some concessions but he started out with a pretty big office and it was all about symbolism about britain being this independent coastal state about sort of patriotism and he had to give in somehow on the other hand british fishermen are now able to to fish much more in their own waters and after a transition period of 5 years there would be you negotiate sions so even when it comes to fishing there there is there are tradeoffs spots altogether for what

council was johnston is that there is a deal and there are no terrorists and creators are on on on british goods and also that there is this understanding to cooperate with the e.u. on many issues where alexander tilting to the e.u. commission president sort of on the line announced the deal with saudi more somber statement calling it fair balanced and right is the e.u. happy with this deal. well this still was only possible because both sides were willing to compromise and the european union certainly had to to make a substantial concessions one example only the you wanted the european court of justice to decide over future disputes it's not going to happen instead both sides agreed to establish an independent. tribunals but overall i would say that the european union was able to achieve its main goals remains united during this

very difficult negotiation process it's stood up for a small member state arlen's who had most to lose from the u. case departure and it made clear that axis to the european union single market concert a prize with obligations the u.k. has to agree had to agree to binding constraints and this is definitely good news for the european union or 8 united during the negotiations the said but how have member states been reacting to the deal. overall no very positive way i would say the german chancellor angela merkel described this deal as a deal of historic importance. german cabinet is going to decide on the agreement in the next day days next monday and merkel said that she is very confident that they would have a good result the french president emmanuel mccall was also very positive on

twitter saying that this deal is essential to protect the rights of the french citizens fisherman and the french producers even though friends across the country who had taken the hardest line on fisheries so know all the governments of all the member states they have to scrutinize the legal tags and to do it quickly to make it possible for the agreements to be provisionally implemented before the end of the transition period all right alan found a phenomenon in brussels and big mouth in london thank you. and i turn to some of the other stories making headlines this hour pope francis has made a christmas day plea for authorities to make covert 19 vaccines available for all the 1st in line should be the most vulnerable and needy he said this time francis delivered his annual irby at all the speech latin to the city and to the world
