share of global emissions. see is designed to change that course by showing that things can work differently inspired by the project dozens of people have got on board. that i'm a boat building instructor from holland and from omaha nebraska in the united states to find the local time for both i'm from portugal my name's russell i'm from the west coast of canada and i'm support crew so i do whatever needs to be done every helping hand is needed the initiators including links from canada want to raise awareness and provide an alternative form of shipping their freighter is to be 100 percent emissions free and that's not all. it's for using sustainable local materials right that are sourced within the region so we also have a clean shipping. business that we're building but we're also also promoting sustainable building as well cargo ship building which is something when you compare it to

steel is a lot more environmentally friendly. the ship which is $45.00 metres long is due to set sail next year powered only by the wind and where necessary solar powered electric motors $250.00 tons of cargo. the vision includes investing in the community by employing and training up local people like you i mean it. she used to live from fishing among the mangroves from on the coast. i never dreamed of getting a job like this or i'm learning things today i love it best i worked on the big ship now i'm on a small accompanying but it's nice to. hear. the workers receive breakfast and lunch here the chefs come from the local town appoint a moralist or jumps a few the food is plentiful and mostly vegetarian in from self grown produce

shipyard offers both jobs and prospects drawing people like logan mcmanus a coaster rican who used to live in florida. it's something very humbling and inspiring. when you've been looking at it from a far from social media to just looks like something from a dream and i'm living it. and simba takes shape manager danielle has been looking for customers interested in using the ship to transport their goods between central and north america. one future contractor is an hour's drive away in the mountains. the organic coffee plantation is small but aims for top quality the farm is relatively new run by people with a vision who don't mind working in the damp humid conditions of the rain forest.

they're targeting the u.s. and canadian markets seeking customers who love coffee and care about the environment. small producers or conscious environmentally conscious producers such as this farm is inherent part of our business model will ship pretty much almost anything but we really want to ship its products just like this and telling stories like that. as yet only the ships framework is complete seba is costing 4000000 euros to build more ships are planned financed by investment partly from individuals and small investors who believe in the project. the 3 mass tall ship is due to set sail early next year the team is committed to producing the world's cleanest cargo ship a wooden ship will last 150 years whereas these big steel ships which are a lot bigger impact on the environment they're going to be beached somewhere after 1020 years max and they're going to be scrapped for metal and some 3rd world

country that. really doesn't need all of that pollution. another day's work is not over. yet i mean that is proud to be employed by the shipyard which is located in one of the poorest parts of coaster reka. she has fixed working hours and good paying. the single mother started out as a cleaner at the shipyard but she received training there in carpentry so that she can work on the ship. i'm so great reports of the save the town and not fishing in the monkey grass. that used to be the only way i could earn money so that my daughter and i could supply. better but. 90 percent of goods worldwide are transported by scene in ships powered mostly by heavy oil saber is designed to show that all the pollution isn't necessary. the company management is appealing to governments worldwide to reduce the emissions from shipping they're

convinced it can be done i don't want to sound like a dreamer but yeah i do think so i think their efforts here have already changed the world we've already invited to speak up 23 in bonn here speaking there few years ago and we have created a growing tension from large companies from other shipping companies from the united nations. see these small compared to the giant steel frame that ply ocean but the company isn't aiming to generate huge profit it just wants to point the way in times of advancing climate change. and slowing down climate change that's what our global ideas series is all about this week we had to kenya solar power given that the high cost ceased to be an issue now though there are some very affordable options.

sent her love of flowers has brought grace near child a long way today she's the proud owner of a flower farm in the town of near the kenyan capital nairobi it's a certified fair trade company with more than $500.00 employees together they grow 20 different varieties of rose. the song then the same but also yes i will from us on this is because of my lawful for us long before even but this you know even if probably someone. with a business done for us for me it is many it was very important that i walked with the product that i like to myself i was happy. for nearly 30 hectares of land are covered with greenhouses full of roses all of the flowers are grown without the use of chemicals once harvested the roses are packed and placed in a cold store ready to be sent to europe both the cold store and the artificial lighting

use a lot of electricity but the power supply isn't always reliable in kenya and power cuts are frequent. gracemere child has often had to decide whether to keep the flowers fresh using a diesel generator which is costly or to let the roses die so for years she's looked for alternatives. renewable energy sources like solar power were always very expensive. but last year she got a solar system that offers up to 150 kilowatts of power financed with the help of a german startup called a colby joe. they can fuss a full 20 get us about the benefits. and the along the way we all saw that it was possible for us since we started with just a few steps and to get to

a place where we can be halfway. she now pays around $2400.00 euros a month to the start up it's a lot of money but still around 30 percent less than she used to pay for electricity after 9 years the system will be paid off and she'll only need to finance the maintenance costs equal egos serves a number of businesses. kenya including another flour company called rift valley roses here they've set up a floating solar system. called leader co-founder marching band has come from germany to inspect the installation he's worked with solar power for 16 years and swears by it companies that use it to reduce their energy bills actually saving a lot of money secondly it's also saving c o 2 emissions and helping us to save the planet. the firm already has rooftop solar panels from nickel ego but more electricity was needed as they had no land free for

a 2nd solar system the owners came up with the idea of using their farm reservoir from which they irrigate the roses it's kenya's 1st floating solar system it was set up by technician. he's installed a number of solar systems for a call the go since the project 1st began in 2017. but this here was quite different. well the floating system has a lot of different issues compared to a lead mounted system. as you know it has to be a resistance you have to now understand how to move things because you're talking about something that floats and we don't know any of these items so we had to rely . on the technical team at equal legal. the start up now operates in 6 countries eco diego has an unusual funding policy to push forward its energy revolution because bank loans are usually slow to come through the company operates

only with crowdfunding the money comes directly from private investors individuals or families crowd investing has a few advantages it's flexible it's fast and it helps people to actively do something against the climate crisis by using that capital for sustainable energy projects like this. especially the fact that it's fast and flexible helps us to use it for these kind of projects. the investment has definitely paid off for grace near china and it's encouraged her to keep aiming higher and in the future we can only hope that there will be less power cuts but i am myself is that we may get to a place where we were a 100 percent but to crowley with. that would be using sora. that would take her one step closer to her own timid goal to sell flowers that are not only fair trade but also grown on

frankfurt airport city managed by from. this is speed of the news live from berlin deadlock in israel's 4th election in 2 years long serving prime minister benjamin netanyahu claims victory but exit polls suggest still fall short of a majority and will have to open tricky coalition talks also coming up. emergency services rescue residents stranded by the worst flooding in eastern

australia in decades one has a dangerous devry lurking in the floodwaters. and a paralympic equestrian who fought back from losing her legs in brussels airport bombings now is ready to compete at the summer games in tokyo. come told me a lot of why it's good to have you with us israel's 4th election in 2 years appears to be deadlocked veteran prime minister benjamin netanyahu is claiming his right wing likud party has won a huge victory but exit polls suggest hill fall short of securing an outright majority and will need to enter a coalition talks with rivals early results signal the electorate shifting broadly towards the right. celebrations everywhere

yet who has won within hours of the polls closing prime minister binyamin netanyahu claimed his right wing likud party and its allies had won a huge victory the result is likely to fall well short of that claim it appears that as in previous elections netanyahu will be forced into tricky coalition negotiations in order to form a government the centrist lesh a tea party led by your love pete may have done even better while counting is still going on netanyahu is confident. the state needs a stable government. not a government of bits and pieces based on personal disqualifications on ambitions of a stable government for the state of israel that's what the our demands that's what the challenges in front of us demands and we must not under any circumstances drag the state of israel to new elections to a 5th election we must form

a stable government now. so. netanyahu ran for reelection despite being on trial for corruption israel successful coronavirus vaccination program has seen more than half the country already inoculated that may have boosted netanyahu standing among voters but not by enough to secure an overall victory. the much smaller yamuna party also right wing and nationalistic led by enough tali bennett could now hold the key to power bennett is a former ally of netanyahu who could well work with him again mustn't call from a coup. netanyahu has been in power for 12 years making him israel's longest serving prime minister he's also the 1st to be indicted in office but denies corruption the 71 year old campaign not just on his handling of the pandemic but also played up how he normalized relations with 4 air. states. called.

for some more analysis on the elections i'm joined now by g.w. reporter shiny resigned his shiny good to have you on the program prime minister binyamin netanyahu is right wing likud party emerges as the strongest force in the exit polls now will netanyahu be able to form a government at last it doesn't look like it actually we still we still have to wait for the final results what we see now is based on exit polls so we see many shifts happening through the night every time there's more and more real results coming in but basically we see the same picture as we've seen the last 4 results we see quite quite of a time between the 2 main signs of the prone ateneo camp and they are the camp that is trying to defeat and change and to now be thrown him and it's not point clearing he has enough of the numbers lined up on his side yet and even if he does

have that it's quite clear it's going to be very very narrow majority going to be a very difficult. coalition building process that we're facing yet once again the 4th time in 2 years in israel and still in those exit polls what do they indicate about the distribution of seats when you compare this to previous elections. it's interesting you know where we are after a year of pandemic that hit israel very hard to know we are mentioning how the rollout of vaccine was quite supportive but we don't see changing much of the poll numbers if you look at it wouldn't win his supporters have gotten now comparing to what they've gotten a year ago or 2 years ago we see this tie remaining so you know when. it's like they're condemning never happened it's a little bit corona never happened and in that sense the success that we all have had with the vixens doesn't really count the goose thing him up which you very much hope for above the threshold of 60 seats which he needs he needs at least 61 seats

in order to to make the majority that entitles him to have a primary murshid been a very comfortable stable coalition he didn't manage to do that this who's of the vaccines there is no doubt they did have an effect but only in the sense that they have maybe stopped him from the 2 year waiting we know that polls about a month ago showed him we can mean so he regained some of his bases but he doesn't manage to break through and neither does the other side basically and we're still in another state where we'll another very frustrating result for all citizens and politicians in israel like. shani resigning to resign is thank you for explaining this to us. huge swathes of eastern australia remain underwater after a week of relentless rain emergency services which last year battled on presidents had bushfires and now rescuing residents from flooded homes include dangerous debra
