i think it is still worth it if you spend 10 percent more or 15 percent more and after 5 years it pays for itself and then after that it runs virtually free of cost and you are giving back to the future generations you're giving back to the environment we're now coming into the concept of you know 0 carbon exit or buildings which are going to you know give back more than they consume i think that's the need of the are right now. at the moment india has around $1400000.00 modern homes built with the green concept which amounts to less than 5 percent of all residential properties. the indian green building council hopes to take this number to 10 percent in the next 2 years and some states have begun providing more incentives to green certified construction. however these figures do not include the countless houses built by hand in rural

india traditional 12 that are often green in their own right. we are always inspired by all instructors that history has to be studied because historically what people have big naturally it is normal that they are the best structures and that what we do is we can temporize it. but while renovated his own house in 2000 he was inspired by the traditional methods of environmentally friendly construction. i used all the broken payload that came out from the toilets so all that were broken and used in the form of a back burn and since a lot of them were laid it reflects a lot of heat as well. more people can now afford the initial investment and more indians are growing aware of the impact of their choices on the

environment. they strongly feel that just inability has to start from and you have to adopt a 1st in a below before you want a system that will lend green building so i think the consciousness has come in and pandemic or not this will really pick up but i am sure that this. situation we have been receiving a lot of calls from clients saying that does simply fire homes now does give more open areas let's reduce the build up area let's go in for more green measures let's going plant more trees because they help in you know taking care of pollution as well. is green building designed the way for the future in india architects like milan john but while hope so and are ready to play their part.

rethinking cities is a mammoth task with heaps of challenges how for example will we keep the cities of the future. in 2016 the world's households produced 2000000000 tons of waste by 2050 estimates suggest there be 3400000000 tons of it 80 percent from city. so most of us rubbish it's just a pain it looks bad smells bad and yet it has huge potential clever recycling we can make it stream really useful products from it like in the netherlands. we're using natural resources at a very fast pace some are finite others renewable but nature can't keep up with us . we also generate vast amounts of greenhouse. cities account for 70 percent of them. the dutch capital amsterdam is aiming to create a circular economy by 2050 that involves kid tailing the use of new rule materials

avoiding waste and reusing as much as possible by slashing emissions. the city sanitation department fishes $42.00 tons of floating plastic trash out of the canals every year a lot more probably gets through. we never got around to ferrets of all the plastic in the ocean actually traveled by reverse towards the ocean and quite some trash that you see on the street or that this is there and up in this rivers and then of course the rivers flow to work to see you so it's one of the kind of transport and magnus magnusson plastic pollution and that's why we would really like to stop it there a memory of elaine's is behind us start up the great bubble barrier and it's ineffective technology here's how it works a chub is laid across the bed of the waterway air is pumped out of poles along it the bubbles drive trash in the water to the surface towards the bank and into

a receptacle. tests have shown that on average 86 percent of trash in the water can be collected in this way. the garbage that ends up in the container is removed 3 times a week. for now only one bubble barrier has been installed in amsterdam it's a pilot project but the potential both in the city and world white this enormous. you have multiple factors that have interest in this for example you can imagine that companies that have a benefit of tourists coming by they want beaches that are clean they want riverside's that are clean they want to have terraces very nicely and on the moment to install such such a system. and you can you can make it make sure that it looks nice to visit again

the firm has received financial support from the government it's also working on ways to recycle all the collected trash. cities also generate lots of waste water as unlikely as it might seem the water flushed down our toilets contains valuable resources that could be retrieved. scientists in the netherlands have developed a new waste water purification system to do just that. one of the end products is a gum may call cow mera which has many up locations as a glue opined an agent in the manufacturing and construction industries. but if you want to have a circular society to make sure it's a cycle all our waste streams and waste water is a very important way streams and nowadays what happens if you are in the end produced by a gas whether it's with bio gas a relatively low failure application and then producing this got me i just don't know we can use just before i fell you i think there are ships so what we want to do in the end the bones of produce i show you building material for ships using

waste far from the sorts of. standard industrial planes are made from oil which is not good for the environment. in the new process bacteria purify the waste water. comair is a side benefit. a single plant can produce up to $800.00 tons of ice a year. and this research is a working on new biodegradable materials. they mix cow marrow with recycled toilet paper and various combinations of peach pits and. shells. so far they've made great signs undeveloped architectural cleansing material made out of 80 percent organic materials. more r. and d. is needed before this new composite based on cow merit and toilet paper can come to market the prospects look good. for instance tropical hardwoods that's beatable by

this material and also elimimian and i mean i see huge markets but aluminum has a very very high c o 2 footprint and a good thing of this material if you can beat it's all mechanical properties and also you have 2 properties you anyway so then the price will be the challenge and i think the co-op coming to new years we will try to replace by discover me to accomplish that material. recycling and up cycling organic waste and construction waste could be a money spent and would certainly be good for the environment. i'm saddam spend known as a great place for emissions for recycling for decades it's still a long way from achieving a circular economy. the plan is to make that happen by 2050 and ambitious goal for a city determined to be a pioneer. and

now we leave technology behind us and head out to the mexican countryside. to meet a family living much like the generations before them. hello my name is a daily. battle i spend most of my time here in the kitchen. it's where i like to be. this is my mother in law and this is my sister in law. i like it when they come visit. me my eldest daughter is 16 her name is maria guadalupe young. my other daughter in law is 15. you know that's miguel.

the latest trends in here hello again just looking at relatives this is how it came to come on baby once you reach the country of st lucia you want to the making up and up the pose a little dick to listening to the thousands of people that already plugging and nothing a lot of fun and the phrase that these goofy. 60 minutes on w. . every day counts for us and for our planet. global ideas is on its way to bring you more conservation. cow do we need to see the screen or how can we protect habitats what to do with all our waste.

we can make a difference by choosing smart new solutions overstrained said in our ways. google i do know some fundamental series of games the phones are going to double down on line. the little guys this is the some in the 7 percent. the platform for africa suit issues. are just sad out of touch and delicate topic. and young people clearly have the phoenician. 77 percent.

this is deja vu news live from berlin germany's chancellor warns that existing. may not be tough enough. says that if the 16 regional states do not fall into line she may have to intervene stricter measures such as curfews could also be on the table also coming up. world leaders condemning the bloodshed in myanmar the united nations accuses the regime of committing mass murder against since own people. and the formula one season starts with a bad.
