goal. what is one of the most important things when it comes to operating our homes and businesses it's energy and was lee it comes from burning fossil fuels generating carbon dioxide and other heat trapping emissions onto this show we look at in a wish and provide an alternative and help us inch towards a carbon neutral world how welcome to equal india that are let's start of the new badly sandwiched between the himalayan mountains where the biking called pin air and rocky terrain don't live here is very hard so why the often depends on heat and hot water and the aulus of providing this invariably falls upon

the women of the house who are eating into a large part of her day and all that is a shame in the wyly is trying to change this. every morning these women set off for work in the cool valley and the state of him a child predator. collecting firewood for their families is a back breaking enterprise. people living higher up at around 1800 meters above sea level need hot water on a daily basis it's cold in these parts especially in winter and that's becoming a growing problem for the region's forests with the population having increased by one 3rd over the last 20 years to around 490000. or you are dying when the population was watched less harvesting from the forest was not an issue what would be increasing population with increasing now there are

harsh word window and dog there are long spells of rain. and all this is a need to get out of climate change we find that the pressure on politics increased in winter months in summer also the horde want out acquirement was as high as 70. a day. the hard work takes its toll on the women they spend up to 4 hours a day collecting firewood. from a look at. what. we face many problems when collecting firewood for instance our hands often get injured. and after finishing that part of the day's work we have to walk long distances to bring the firewood hired we often have tools to do as soon as we get that but we hardly have any time for ourselves. once back home the women then have to turn their attention to the housework as well as the children and the livestock. pushed now has

a lot more time on their hands 10 years ago she began using a her mom for using up water. made of galvanized steel and the medium the device comprises 2 chambers the water goes into the outer layer of the sin and while the inner chamber is filled with twigs pine cones dried leaves and leftover crops. her mum cost $1000.00 rupees around 11 euro's for pushpa it's been a great investment. to make him a bad member of. the while using the traditional stove we have to keep reviving it with firewood and sit watching it constantly. and now the water also heats up much faster. because i don't have to keep watching it the whole time i'm able to multitask. when you get out of. the 35 year old is one of around 1500 women who own her mum in the kulu valley where they used to burn up to 12

kilos of firewood to heat up 5 liters of today they need just 500 grams of feeling . what small hamam also saves them a lot of time. in doing so these modern heaters make a substantial contribution in the struggle for equal opportunities between men and women. when home i was introduced to all men the men became very active they started not only supporting women in just buying these divisors but also supporting them participate been you know all programs and training programs which there earlier were not coming now there were more you go to send them for meetings so if . people are affected in where there's another aspect of life or what would you want women could never think of. it was the idea of reducing women's workload in the home while giving them an opportunity to earn money that prompted mother chanda

to set up a new engine. to provide power while empowering women in this part of the millennia . jarry t. provides women with funds for buying her mom's. but it also has set up a number of self-help groups where the women can come together and exchange ideas and also apply for micro-loan for their budding businesses. a number of them now sell their own cheese honey and milk products neverland ranch committee is in charge of 14 of the self-help groups an unthinkable notion 10 years ago back then she simply would not have had the time. but the her mom has changed her life and will she hopes change that of others too despite resistance. to some who were the number hardens. the longer me but what about what it's very difficult to change people's minds whenever i try talking to other members of the

community they didn't think it was a problem they name are they believe that there was plenty of firewood that they could keep taking it from the forest and it wouldn't run out they were opposed to using her mom's because of these beliefs the growing use of her mom's cut c o 2 emissions by several tons a year and another benefit to the communities or punch outs is that more women can attend the village assemblies or grams of us they are able to warn you know of the from auditors or in all the places they could not go there in fact their participation in the training programs that reward for women for on various issues has increased so the mobility is in careers no women are also seen as they can also contribute they also have a bit better understanding and awareness of issues in their own hundreds or there's also started attending grounds i was. a modest looking device that's having a sizeable impact on the environment and on the lives of the women.

despite huge investments and new both all still in india it's the world's 2nd largest importer of cool for a decade now the seat of guru in western india has provided a passage of will fritz to feed the steel plants in the neighboring states the government has plans to double the free passage but now a local initiative is taking action cleaning of the coal dust pollutes their air and water. who does go along to the go ins that's what these protesters you know are chanting across the state environmental action groups hold such events almost every day they want to raise awareness of the plans for a huge increase in coal imports and the construction of another set of train tracks to transport the coal into the interior. elements kareena organizes many of these

events she's on a mission to stop the passage of coal for the state. she says the coal goes to steel factories and power stations up to a 1000 kilometers away in the neighboring states of karnataka and maharastra it's not even for the go once themselves. you want them the next day we meet her at the railway tracks she says the freight cars lose a lot of coal and coal dust because they're not properly sealed. you can see this on the tracks in the month on that goes into groundwater that sits into our wealth into our drinking water see you go to school you see 4 years ago she discovered the dust was threatening the health of her family. my son use of concrete is kickoff. and i took him to several doctors they did several tests. he had to take the neighbor lice so he was also put on steroids. but due to his

education he had to move to the city. kind of in the no month my son was fine. over $10000000.00 tons of coal arrived at the port of every year it's then transported by truck or train across the central government has approved a plan to increase coal imports over 5 fold to $51000000.00 tons a year by 2035 the coal is imported from australia south africa and indonesia by 3 companies. heading east into the interior the trains pass through in a forested area rich in biodiversity international studies have shown that up to one per cent of coal is lost for each 500 kilometers of transit that's at least 300 kilograms per wagon and there are 3 trains with more than 50 wagons per hour. yes

shows us where a 2nd set of tracks is to be built so that more coal can be transported she says houses here are solely by the dust many of also sustained damage because the ground shakes when the trains go by they now face demolition she tries to reach out to older people in the area. many feel trapped and helpless. to the colas dr don't even have a big problem not pollution and even if sometimes those things are not colored. i know. then you have been killed problems you have any chance in months in future i could be less. the bad one might have your wildlife sanctuary is part of the western ghats a mountain range recognized by unesco as one of the world's 8 hottest hotspots of biodiversity nonetheless nearby thousands of trees have been felled to make way for

a substation for the power line to serve the new railway tracks krishna's or who's tried lives in the protected area fears the land trees animals and water sources are in jeopardy yet of what it there once the what the missiles for why should anyone is gone they start coming in at all that we need this. weekend right now we can see the monkey with. all of it is that they don't allow us to grow by 99 stuff so they eat. protests alone won't help he says. the how fired up british and hoping that one legal system the court they've been looking to. it's often up to the courts to block projects that have been approved without proper public consultation the youth and goa are hoping that will be the case here as we go is facing a lot of destruction projects which are coming in goa and it is very wrong to go on

there and is not listening to the people at what cost they don't want to double up and they don't want you know mr bones of what the don't want the cutting off trees which is going to effect us if we develop today and if we are down 20 to 30 years if it is in danger what is the use of this development there is no point and i got projects not certain solomon miranda fears that the mega projects that are coming will lead to a total destruction of go 15 different protest groups formed by people like miranda and mustering us are trying to stop the expansion of coal transports in order to protect both nature and the health of go with us. this is how the protesters here sum up the problem pull magnates are coming to go it to bring disease and destruction while the government turns its back on the state government was not available for an interview meanwhile work on the coal

related infrastructure projects continues as do the protests. in the i might be depended on called for now but you remember that some of the was the largest solar box are also looking at it in india where there were 2600 hours of sunlight on average every year it's no wonder there's huge potential but even in germany with an average of around 1600 hours of sunlight annually solar power is in huge demand specially because the acknowledged he has become much cheaper. the country is now building its largest solar. these panels are pretty easy to install but there are thousands of them still to go. in the countryside near berlin germany's biggest solar park is taking shape to us and the project manager.

sector has been growing significantly in recent years between 20102012 there was a big expansion and then 3 years ago there was another major increase in terms of rooftop systems but also on the ground operations big solar parks are really taking on. germany is aiming to phase out coal powered by 2030 days and nuclear power will be switched off soon 2 so will solar be able to meet the country's energy needs and how will it change the landscape. half a 1000000 modules built on metal frame. 100000 mounting posts. 250 kilometers of cable. 150 fisher is working on behalf of one of germany's biggest energy companies.

we definitely have the potential to complete projects of this scale but rather than size it's the viability of the project that counts for you. this solar park is the size of $225.00 soccer pitches facilities in europe tend to be smaller because they compete with agriculture for the. arab areas of india for example some solar parts can provide enough electricity for half a 1000000 households. but solar parks alone aren't enough here in germany there are 19000000 apartment buildings and houses for a lot of roof space. and an ideal place for solar panels. on entire industry has been built around installing them. now adays the systems are very affordable and economical to run since you basically don't have any maintenance costs on the wattles calls the installations have become so affordable to install that they quickly pay for themselves. out.

owns a house with their roof tops solar system in many cases the system actually produces more energy than a household needs. as one of the things that makes it financially worthwhile is that the costs of heating your house or heating your water are pretty low. the equipment paid for itself in just a few years. after the off the electricity produced is essentially free. all germany's proved to generate solar power they cover the country's energy needs. it's a company that builds solar parks across europe. and solar

systems are important but they won't cover our energy needs on their own you have to set priorities 1st you have to figure out which roofs are technically suitable and then you have to figure out which ones of those are financially viable. solar energy is expected to see significant growth in germany. by the time the last coal fired power station is switched off and 2038 there would have to be 5 times as many rooftop solar systems on parks as there are now to cover energy needs. solar energy would then account for a quarter of the country's power i would post. the number of orders for new solar parks is growing fast what's behind the boom. in the last decade solar modules have decreased in price to around

a 10th of what they were originally we can now produce. electricity in germany for $4.00 to $0.06 per kilowatt hour you can't do that in a coal fired plant or nuclear power station even after the initial investment has been paid off. back to germany's biggest miller park project 10 years ago the operating company was one of the biggest nuclear power producers in the country. they still run several coal fired plants but that will soon be a thing of the past. these new energy sources will have to fill the gap they've become a central pillar in our portfolio. 2012 we've seen growth in all new and renewable segments including wind both offshore and onshore as well as solar. energy these technologies will account for about half of our output by 2025 i name in.

the solar panels made in china just keep on coming day in day as it's hoped to the park will be in operation soon. reducing carbon emissions is one of the key factors to show that the planet's the wipes and no one verify that the people living in a small town in southern india the government 7 admissions to make the town. will be provide a model for the rest of us let's take a look. evening stroll around his coffee plantation the organic shape grown robust a coffee grows is a speciality in the southern states have care and. why not this is why and. we count the number of clusters on each branch 12345678914 the best coffee harvester. 13 of these

clusters on a broad. plantation in the quaint town of mean a special it's on the verge of becoming the 1st carbon neutral certified coffee plantation in india. but that involves more than just the plantation the town has set itself an ambitious 21st century goal. as the world confronts global warming and climate issues we've started a carbon neutral program people tend to think of development in terms of infrastructural development like building roads bridges and airports but we're including the environment. since 2016 he has become something of a climate science lab the local government here is working with a wide range of groups to figure out how the town's net carbon footprint can be

brought down to 0. this is significant for india a country that is the world's 4th largest greenhouse gas emissions. when the project began many of the 34000 residents of mena god didn't know what global warming even meant but they knew that things were changing. we've all been affected by climate change weather pattern isn't why and ours are not what they used to be when i used to have a natural ac but now we can't sleep without using electric cattle. the emissions produced by transport and households and industries in the town are already being partially offset by this forests that surround. that was revealed by detailed study conducted to determine the town's carbon footprint at the time.

the study concluded that an additional $15000.00 tonnes of c o 2 needed to be put back into the ground each year for the town to attain net 0 emission or carbon neutral status volunteers and workers began to reforest the area. they have to do their bit to buffer the average temperature rise of between 2 and 4.5 degrees celsius that is predicted for the region by 2050. such a rise would cause rice production to fall and devastate heat sensitive crops like cardamom and coffee. the study found there were other improvements the town could make for example waste management. separating different kinds of waste and recycling plastic would contribute to attaining the

goal of being carbon neutral. residents of mena goddy have already taken the issue to heart says the manager of the town's recycling facility. making 1 dollar people carry their own bags now when they go grocery shopping they stopped using plastic sold in stores so plastic consumption and households has dramatically decreased it's decreased in my own home as well before this happened plastic bags were widely used by shopkeepers but that's gone down most of the people i'm in gardi have changed their ways a lot of my thinking on that and. that even before the carbon neutral movement began here. the headmaster of a local school had begun working with his students to offset c o 2 emissions. out of this other one would be will. learn about because they are 90 percent of the

children studying here belong to local tribal communities. most of them belong to the lowest economic groups but they are the most sensitive to the environment. they don't need any lessons on how to plant and nurture trees and shrubs to get ample knowledge of. from their own homes and villages. other than merely school on that but. together they cultivated bamboo plantations at the school as a valuable sing for carbon storage in this region bamboo has the potential to offset up to $400.00 tons of c o 2 equivalents per hectare. not needed in a bit of animal you are shared if i have these programs are implemented properly then we might just be able to achieve some precious objective. we hope that the number of new trees we've planted be enough to absorb the excess carbon. that i am about a younger you. often carbon neutrality is

a goal that can never be entirely or completely achieved but even getting the community together is a success in itself and this could certainly serve as a model for many cities in india. reducing our carbon footprint is a macro as well as a micro for us as a species while governments and policymakers tackle the larger questions in backing our planet it falls upon us to address on a smaller scale you know individual lives as well what are you doing to reduce your carbon footprint levers mord eco india. we'll see you again next week from our entire team good buy.

good shape it's a part of the body we tense time to estimate even though it's so important for the arms of a man more than a get a credit card and the coefficients an ice cube to change a coat nice well. what effects are intestinal flora. and how can we keep it

healthy. and good shape. next. residents can finally party again in china where things are almost back to normal it was from listening to the corona virus spread over around the world. now it's considered defeated here china's crisis management seem to perform well. but the roic tale has many flaws in a. global 3000. meter 60 minutes long time. w. . it's about billions. it's a power power. it's about the foundation of the new world order the new

silk road. china wants to expand its influence with this trade network also in europe. china is promising news partners rich. but in europe there's a sharp morning whoever accept money from the new superpower will become dependent on it china's gateway to europe. starts feb 19th on d w. welcome to the health show on t w here's your host dr costin laid out hello and welcome to a good shape he'll never guess where i am in the colo. why many people will know how it works some of you may be wondering how i got here

. if the model and its stance in berlin in the next dead center fall molecule madison and in today's show you will learn everything you will need for healthy digestion i'm going back into the colon and i'm a little bit afraid that it will be boring so i invited some competent support. this time on in good shape we meet dr on gillick appearance tickets to enter our just heads the internal medicine department at the elizabeth clinic in berlin she'll tell us all we need to know about healthy and. testing this is just a model that is really about this constantly in motion for him. and this is called peristalsis. up to 30 tons of food passed through the colon in a person's lifetime this is as much as

a big truck load. which of these enters the body and what is extremely again is determined by the color it is many millions of nerve cells. our so-called thumb in the brain that only organizes our gesture it also has a big influence on our psyche. if our colon were smooth on the inside its surface would only be one square meter brick of the approximately $10000000.00 things i vill i increase the surface area. our digestion is partly done by the intestinal flora which is composed of billions of funny intestinal bacteria together they wake up to 2 kilograms the intestine the big curio are also there to build up the defensibility of new immune cells that the intestines produce every day over 70 percent of the immune systems defense cells are located in the intestine and that's

a great thing because many toxins and pathogens enter the body through food and we need to get rid of that. i meeting dr and gillick of beers here in the bower this is a very special place to meet not for you because your guest central it is so this is your daily life isn't it here it was quite obvious to here right right so what can you see here if you're doing a kind of musketry you can see all those things we can see the model so well yet yeah 1st thing right next to me over here is the pancreas color and test. colmes that's a. good plot quiet the cubs are ok so this is novel which obviously this is not now that's not that far left worse because it's just a long. tradition from just my cousin a few a muslim week after power and it's just been he can and most of the patients who

have to particular they don't have never sometimes ok so this is a lie we don't have to worry about this so it's about what about this year it's. rather scary as strong inflammation close to the divot you can love. inside of it that's called cured why it turns around it's bacterial infection and you have to treat it back to the attics ok so so this is infections so what you can see here this is a lot of the fiction this is something coming off the wall here back to the live. perforation of the macos are they are small and usually they have been nicknamed. the bigger they are the risk is increasing to cancer ok so even if it is still behind it can grow to a cancer yeah ok so what about this year this is apollo guess where there are many

many many. close together. they have a disease called police poses there's always a genetic background suffering from hundreds to thousands whole lives holds quite so those polyps come in different shapes and colors so this is more looking like what is it a mushroom or and here in the silicone. start here you know why they can't grow flat on. the plaster. rely on because you can cut it out very easy just to kind of deal with her really so those are you just look at the last couple years just kind of here and all those things which worry you about them so this is what you see here yeah it's already cut but you advocate so if you don't cut it you're very worried that it grow into

a full cancer like this you hear and that's cousin that's a co-director of carcinoma. well it's quite often on germany's say are 6 per cent off people they became a common cancer in germany during the lifetime you could really tell the difference that it has no one looks differently to all those nice normal cold in the cosell and you won't have any symptoms like legends if you're from the macos or if you called treats are nice and you have to teach are called a nice as well. no matter how we eat whether we relish each mouthful. well wolf things down greedily. whether we're concerned about the taste of our food i'm focused on what we're eating. or just shoveling it in without

a 2nd thought. our intestine fast to process it all high time to consider what might make it happen here so 1st of all we should perhaps avoid what our gut really doesn't like being fed practically nonstop for example we may breakfast then have a piece of fruit an hour later followed by a press on in the late morning. and then see the candy in between times if we do that the gut never gets it's much needed breaks. so the number one tip for a healthy intestine is a balanced daily routine if you eat breakfast at 8 am then it's best to wait until around 1 pm to have lunch on the gut likes to have an afternoon nap before dinner at 6 pm as well as meals at regular intervals the gut also appreciates routine in

terms of getting regular exercise periods of relaxation unsufficient sleep our gut loves dependability and doesn't like surprises. tip number 2 our intestine likes to be warm at like 31 can gently in the morning for example with a glass of warm water all herbal tea or any milder alternative to coffee which is a stern taskmaster and really cracks the whip. if you want to give your gut a break just very simple hot meals for a day playing rice for example is easily. i'm relieved of the gut. equally you could choose to eat boiled potatoes. porridge. or steamed vegetables. to number

3 a little tender loving care. if your gut gives you grief be patient maybe your body can no longer digest certain types of food that for years were no problem experiment leave out any food you think might be causing the problem just for a while then try it again and see if your hunch was correct. so be kind to your gut after all you're a team. so we heard a lot of what you can do good for your colon so is there anything interesting doesn't like yefren you shop for example of why it needs to. be. exercised less than 3 hours per week. something that they're. also. smoke. or to eat. a lot of my patients complain about stomach grumbling bloating and fletcher

so to what degree is. well they have some cure some time now problem. if this were. sheer quite often the reviews of the quality of life of the patients there are some terms should the patients should contact their pay their doctors many of my patients say that their intolerance against months of concern kind of fits so is this a problem for them and hard to diagnose and that's not a problem if you. don't hurry for. carbon markets you can live without eating that's. just stupid of the real growth so what kinds of symptoms are you and i should definitely see your doctor but you have to go to the uk to if you have signs of clipping if you have been on this in the studio you have to get to the doctor

immediately you can sign that's just have to have to look after it even if you know that you've got him yeah definitely yeah we can be the reason for it. saying you should go to the doctor if you have. pain. change in your difficult haitian habits for example i used to have constipation now you have to really you should contact your doctor because there could be some truth behind this like a calling you know on the floor to leave the rest in many cases is just a reach of about syndrome which is behind those kind of complaints this can take the joy way of life. pain and cramping bloating gas and constipation words opposite diarrhea the symptoms of your a tubal bowel syndrome or i.b.s. often start out slowly and increase in frequency and since other diseases can cause similar symptoms diagnosis can be difficult many people with i.b.s.

have undergone numerous medical examinations including blood tests stomach and ask a p. and common are skippy and ultrasound exams to rule out other conditions where no other cars can be found i.b.s. is the likely diagnosis but even then the search for causes and treatment is usually just beginning happy month for me i'll have someone in my office who her symptoms and is looking for help if the diagnosis ends up being i.b.s. then we can begin looking for a treatment but it can involve quite a bit of detective work. we try to figure out what is causing issues perhaps look for food so that aren't being well tolerated for a time food intolerances often play a role in triggering symptoms figuring that out requires keeping a food diary patients need to write down exactly what they eat how much and when and what food additives were involved they should also record what symptoms occur

afterwards one thing after another with us and it is often patients can tolerate a small amount of specific foods but then be unable to tolerate larger amounts of it and that's when it can be useful to consult a nutritionist someone with experience if you can help you navigate the process and help you figure out how to have a very to diet is possible. if you could not stand drastically and perhaps unnecessarily limiting your diet isn't a good option since that can lead to nutritional deficiencies one solution is on women having a specific category of food to see if that helps stress and emotional factors can also play a role. that special and least bendish twice of course when someone with i.b.s. is experiencing stress or pressure or even when they're suffering from an infection or other kind of physical stress they're much more likely to experience symptoms

any physical or mental strain can play a role here. to help counteract that i.b.s. patients are advised to get enough rest plenty of exercise and fresh air. i walked in the fresh air the only thing you can do when you suffer from i.b.s. . have a lot in there are perfect because you exercising in the fresh air in the shining that's quite good for you. they're marked up a strategy you can follow you can change. and you can think about your sleeping so let you know and you can't think about things which are good for you so the new symptoms are quiet individual but is there some general advice you would like to give to patients with i.b.s. . patients there. and though we are living in a digital camera just tracked it's not a machine and it's not perfectly every day. you

cannot have techs have some discomfort. if the discomfort is too often then you should contact the doctor or or if the quality of life is reduced by the symptoms so try to relax or bar were next to death. so let's talk about colon cancer which is kind of a common disease which mainly affects older patients but sometimes even younger patients as well so why is there. how they're sound next how cancer is caused by genetics changes their families. for example. the high incidence of colorectal cancer so keep an eye on your family. there are colon cancer or breast cancer ovarian cancer or curing and if it's like that than you should contact your doctor and ask him for clinical

this could be accommodations now we drop with professor start in about colin farrell.
