ongoing quest for the, the spring began in 2011 people stood up against corrupt, rulers and dictatorship. the hope for more security, more freedom, more dignity, have their hopes been fulfilled. 10 years after the era spring, rebellion starts june 7th on d. w. the news in every pink around trees, plants, animals, even, uh, computers, and kitchen appliances. it all comes from be we add our own schuman dutch, to process it to consume it. but after we're done,

it doesn't all easily go back into the. we're left with mountains of waste pump boxes and guesses. it is possible to change this on today's show, we introduce you for the people who are working towards the school. hello, welcome to going the 1st let's head to delhi. what is becoming increasingly difficult for workers and traditional industries to make a living? weavers are finding themselves forced out of jobs that have sustained their families for generations. but one on the printer is combining a love for tradition and the environment to a photo sustainable pollution. the me once a thriving of prosperous, we was to be this neighborhood as the story of a dying industrial.

ah for these days the glare, if we but are the watchman, he's better off than they probably earn. $30000.00 will be the month. we don't learn more than $500.00 will be like this, like now. got yards arm is one of them. 100 weavers who live in the beaver's colony in sunday. lucky day. it's one of the few weavers clusters and the capital that have existed since 19 fifties, when the central government declared the trend. this new production border, saudis, doughty and bet sheets, but to be made exclusively on hand ah, but the lifting of both restrictions and increased production of imitation hunger might by power loos,

weekend and dust. today. bob looms produce more than 60 percent of immune textiles . according to the textile ministry, ah. but some graphs people are holding up only a few kilometers away from, from the homer. no shar, is working on a soft furnishing company. it is 5 meters long, $46.00 inches wide and made completely of silk. he's moving it into a chevron design button in mama nor sha belongs to a family of registers. denny with his wife and child in 2019 to be part of this stood a salary job means he doesn't have to struggle with the uncertainties of the crate yet. then suddenly i have job security on i need to do is come here and here the fabric. back in my

hometown, i had to worry about every little thing. suppliers, how to utilize fabric and delivery. meaning that my focus here is on leaving and creating new design is equal. that's all it is and it's going on in one, the studio gets his name from the phrase, even blog mean to catch up or repair in india. it's aim is to breathe life back into the dying craft of handling employ traditional and make the textile industry more sustain. founded by fashion design and social entrepreneur. she to think the studio of cycles topic raised into flag young to be sold back to design houses for making new government the

when it will be collaborated with the design. how did a fashion gun it isn't came to massage production gallows inside, but it has been cut into strips and then we'll run into a new fabric. the folk with fabric isn't solar back to design or sell at a higher value so that they can create the sustainable range from the atlantic. so the process is a source overall material is all to find new flying winds. customers in got his student an oil product in discarding, so they can be rebuilt. in the last 2 years, the studio says it has a cycle. 1500 kilograms of scrub produced over 3000 meters of, of cycle summary. and same, more than 3000000 letters of what it annual turnover is around 50, lax bees or 56000 years for me, designers about solving problems and the biggest problem days of climate change.

and i thought, and fashion lay contribution towards what you should, you should and consumption and non pollution bay one water is only useful cleaning purposes. and since the company only uses waste materials, it can avoid dies and chemicals enticing. the bigger challenge is converting waste into well designed for up medical. i enjoy creating fabric samples the most. it's challenging, which is what i like about it. it's not easy to design with scraps, but above all, this work is useful before the tests protect the environment. can, ah, today we will have 6 hand looms and 5 be creating the sustainable business model with customers playing an active gives hope and also provides a blueprint for either colonies, likes and or not. me. businesses

like bear one up part of what is known as a circular economy. but what does that really mean? conceptually, it's about making sure that what we have and create is least detrimental to the environment to us for fighting and our businesses. let's begin a little deeper into this. me, what do you do with your and bustle, or your cell phone when it dies? and what did these 2 things along with many other every day i tend to have in common part of what's called the linear economy. this is the approach that modern day economic systems mostly follow. it involves extracting new resources, making products and disposing of them usually to the detriment, the environment as mountains of waste pile up and finite resources. one else system

is becoming increasingly unsustainable. a growing number of consumers and producers are turning instead to the circular economy. it's inspired by nature's cyclical systems. for example, health make soil moony attrition. it's a system that means nothing is wasted. economists are cooling for everything. so that things we see as waste today can be recycled to become the raw materials of tomorrow. for example, use plastics can be turned into wireless. and parts of phones can be used to make new laptop or tablets. the most stakeholders get involved like design is producers and consumers. the easier it is to close the loop by grandmother often told me stories about how she and her siblings will get new crowds only once or twice a year. but it's been very different for my generation. the ones that follow for

the fashion have made buying clothes, cheap book, and accessible. but it's terrible for the involvement in germany. businesses are looking for ways to move was a circular model in fashion. new t shirt new pants, another t shirt, a new hoodie food, and maybe another pair of sneakers on special offer. most likely, all these new garments will end up in the trash sooner rather than later. just like $92000000.00 tons of textiles, every year, only one percent of that gets recycled. the true price, so fast fashion. between 200-2015. the clothing production. meanwhile, the amount of times places being used for that individual items have been used for actually decreased by over this sort of facility and eastern germany takes in a lot of unwanted clothing. but here it's treated as india resources every day.

work resort up to 200 tons of items based on their condition style and type of material. it's one of the largest facilities of its kind in europe. garments come from all over the world in store collection and recycling containers. they're either sent to 2nd hand shops or sold to recycling firms to create new fabrics and some $500000000.00 us dollars could be earned every year worldwide. if the close industry would shift to a circular economy, valuable resource a found in our clothing. and it is, it is, it would be a shame to not re utilize these resources. we are creating value again because we are identifying items that didn't have the demand of the customer and previously own it anymore. nonetheless, other people who are demanding these types of government and that's how the value is created, the need for more recycling is growing due to past fashion. now,

power boss is partnering with my real mild suffer from a berlin based initiative called circular fashion. seeking to move the industry towards a more sustainable market. we are dealing with also very high, valuable product like kashmir, for example, which we are able to identify by simply touching it. and this isn't a way is a showcase for what's about to come with regard to mature of recognition because this we can identify however, when we're dealing with various mixes, we need more precise information, find a future as will be relevant if it like 80 percent 90 percent a little because the recycling tank. great. what's different quantities if you know exactly this is one on the percent war or you can combine material percent, all 80 percent. so that the, the output of the recycling it's really usable for the freshman. is reagan,

many of the items that end up here are no longer wearable, around to 60 times daily. right now most of that goes to the automotive industry. but it's impossible to utilize the full potential of these check styles while sorting everything by hand. this is where the technology developed by your mild soccer and just colleagues comes into its own. this is actually and tell us that or think station which is equip perfect scanner and fruit it gather. as soon as a garmin comes to the table with an idea and size, so clarity id. it's automatically read out and we get all the products, but the cation i with the product, with the case. and we can calculate, well this the right reuse case for this or what is the best recycling case? workers still have to decide whether the item is wearable or not, and the rest is shown on the screen. truly circular products will one day contain information from the whole value chain. the conventional textile industry is

resource intensive, relies on oil chemicals and 93000000000 cubic meters of water every year. the difference in a circular model starts at the very beginning of the product. it's all about from the outset, from the design principles, ensuring that you are eliminating waste and pollution that you are keeping products for materials in use and you're generating actual systems dying. the conventional approach uses water and chemicals. one reason why fashion is responsible for 20 percent of the world's wastewater. this dutch company is different. it's facility and vietnam dies polyester without process chemicals or water leaders of water just to die. and there's only one t shirt. so if you look at a t shirt, it will be 150 meters of water for kilogram of every you need to dye textiles. this is what you said. we don't use that. ah,

they work with reclaimed carbon dioxide instead. fabric is loaded into the dying vessel. c o 2 is added and brought to the right temperature and pressure only pure dyes are used with no additional chemicals needed. clean di is currently producing around 10000000 liters of dyed fabric a year. that's not much compared to global demand, but all of lola hooks to skyrocket production as interest. and this sustainable method grows. this is also allowed to the rest of the barrel industry, but also to the consumer and, and the solutions on there and stocks of items. you're a consumer retailer or brand it's it's, we're saying there are solutions. it's not already ours. there are more, i think we're one of the important solutions. so let's, as everybody helps to make his senior place, which resources becoming more scarce. many businesses are reconsidering waste in a circular economy. clues are designed to be warned for

a long time. after that intelligence solutions can ensure the recycled for maximum benefit to the transition to this mentality is slowly getting underway. now in the concept of circular economy, there's a very tiny amount of ways, if at all, one organization in the northeastern state of offend, is imbibing the values of this concept in a unique week by making paper from rhino down. let's find out how me this material has a very special structure and each sheet its own unique composition. it's used to make lampshades notepads, and even clocks for a global clientele. the paper manufactured by the woman in the small workshop in san is chiefly comprised of rhino and elephant droppings. a notion that may have some turning their nose up. but this done is actually ideal for making paper as entrepreneur michelle explains. some of people making point of view,

these are the 2, i mean most was done is the most fibrous. they eat long grasses, they have bought these animals have a weak digestive process. so with different case for fiber is available to us to just boil and basically get the fiber, the bulk and go, unlike a lot of other animals they would, they just said there would be not enough fiber available, which is why you work with the 5 of the animals besides the fact that they're from bali and functionally good from a paper point of view in valuable. and there's no shortage of dung in these parts. the woodlands of the state of a som, are home to around 2400 dryness. and at least twice that number of elephants for 10 territory for an innovative concept reciting by less extra meant to make paper was in fact an idea born out of necessity, animals and people live in close proximity here. the road villages and farms are

increasing. the interesting on the habitat of local by life, not to mention the sprawling plantations growing to famous of some to many of the animals live in the protected natural park. and when seasonal rainfall causes the river to flow twice a year, there is an additional problem. yeah, my cart, well, what here is our village more bought and just over there, less than one kilometer is the there are a lot of wild animals living there that i know. so the liver diagram and what about when that even birds bang on the animal know they are in danger and end up roaming through our village and via seeking refute. they also look for food rice harvests here. i regularly devastated by rhinos an elephant. i mean, i grew up near probably daughter, but we don't i me,

we will always find the animals on the street. everywhere they go to get money home . during the rainy season, they will come and forage for food in our farm lands. and when we walk up, they will be out in the field. so by the one you have to me daily, the whole the idea for employing local villagers to turn dunk into paper came from neesha father, the retired cool mining engineer. wanted to give something back to nature. and that undertaking had been a boon for local communities, creating new livelihoods where most people had no regular jobs. among them as model be cut up. because they were all at the time now planned to save up and by attractive for our farm. we have to pay a lot of money to hire tractors to tell our land. and if i want to buy one of our

own on the some sort of the dung is combined with natural fibers source from farm waste, such as jude food peel and cotton. the resulting product, therefore, also better for the environment than regular paper. people making use of lucy was the most water intensive industries in the world, and it's responsible for a lot of what we've seen. a lot of work goes on around this. we use a, we don't use that kind. the water would be also the walker that we use because it has no chemical. if we just use a basic filtration closer, going to get back into the because we also recycling on what the past year was a tough one for the company at demand committed to, to the corona virus pandemic. over the next 2 years, they're planning to break down production into smaller units to enable their team to work from home. the enterprise has provided

a welcome source of jobs plus he's turn off the company's product, save $27.00 trees from being failed to make conventional paper and with the rhinos providing the paper manufacturers with the raw materials relations between the villagers and the animal neighbors have also improved, ah, now one place you can find a lot of in a way the ideas about circular economy is the dutch capital. i'm to them, scientists, an entrepreneur, have been looking for ways to deal with the cities, plastic, and waste water problems. let's take a look. the dutch capital amsterdam is aiming to create a stock killer economy by 2050. that involves curtailing the use of new raw materials avoiding waste and reusing as much as possible that 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 know that around 2 thirds of all, the plastic in the ocean actually traveled via your 1st source, the ocean. quite some trust that you see on the street, or that is, is their ends up in this reverse. and then of course, the reverse flow to works to c. so it's one of going to transport magnets the mechanisms of pollution. and that's why we would really like to stop it. they're unable to reach ever lanes, is behind a start up the great bubble barrier and its innovative technology. here's how it works. a tube is laid across the bed of a waterway pumped out of holes along it. the bubbles dr. trash and the water to the surface towards the bank and into a receptacle. tests have shown this on average 86 percent of trash in the water can be collected in this way.

the garbage, the ends up in the container is removed 3 times a week. so now only one bubble barrier has been installed in amsterdam. it's a pilot project, but the potential both in the city and worldwide is enormous. i have multiple sectors that have interest in this. for example, you can imagine that companies that have a benefit of tourists coming by, they want of beaches that are came that one's riverside that are clean. at one pep there is where you can fit on nicely. and on the moment you install such a, such a system, you can, you can make it clean and make sure that it looks nice to visit again. the phone has received financial support from the government. it's also working on ways to recycle all the collect to trash. the t's also generate lots of waste water as unlikely as it might seem, the water flushed down on toilets contains valuable resources that could be

retrieved. the scientists in the netherlands have developed a new waste water purification system to do just that one of the end product to the gum, they call co mera, which has many applications as a clue binding agent in the manufacturing and construction industries. it was a circular society to insurance cycle, all our waste streams and waste water is a very important re streams. and now what happens in the end for june, bio guess with it with bio guests, relatively low fail you application and producing this got me and i just do we can use as new for high value applications. so what we want to do in the anti welcome produce, i fell, you're building material for safety using wastewater for certain standard industrial please. i'm a true oil which is not good for the environment. in the new process, bacteria purify the waste water cameras. a site benefit,

a single plant can produce up to $800.00 tons of us a year. in this lab, research is working on new biodegradable materials. they mixed marrow with recycled toilet paper and various combinations of peach pips and almond and pistachio shells . they saw they made great signs and developed architectural clothing material paid out of 80 percent organic materials more r and d is needed before this new compet based on comb era and toilet paper can come to market the prospects look good for interest. tropical hard watch. that's beatable by this material and also elimination and elimination is a huge markets. but the aluminum has a very, very high c o 2 footprints. and a good thing of this material is you can beat it on mechanical properties. and c o

2 properties, you'll beat it anyway. so then the price will be the challenge. and i think the upcoming 7 years, we will try to replace aluminum body, discuss your accomplish material, recycling and up slightly organic waste and construction waste could be a money spent and would certainly be good for the environment. dumbs been known as a great place for emissions recycling for decades. it's still a long way from achieving a stock killer economy. the plan is to make that happen by 2050 and i'm bishop goal for us to to determine to be a pioneer. we have only one and we need to do all that. we can to protect it from becoming a jain spirit of waves. i hope you had many take away from our show on circular economy to be an important solution to and saving our planet. i'll see you again next week with many more sub solutions until then from all of us in india and

germany, goodbye. and thanks for watching the news. the news. the news news. the news,

the news. the news, the, all the news every journey begins with the 1st step and every language of the 1st word. niko is in germany. why not learn with him? it's simple online, on your mobile and 3 d, w e learning course,

nikos vague. german made easy. me in the of climate change the what's the people who hear what ideas do they have for their future? d, w dot com, african megacity, the multimedia. click and enter. any flavor that is me. go back to me.

i do a whole month. mm. i why i say i i yes hi, yes i this. hi ellen. megan i i, i just need to know what what i need my,

me ah, the use, ah, this is the w news line from the atlanta germany admits for the 1st time that they committed genocide during its colonial rule of namibia, up 210-0000 herrera and now mac fee for the murder by germany period forces. berlin says it's not ready to apologize. and to set up a $1000000000.00 development funds, not everyone's happy with the deal. also on the program, european regulators give to go ahead, corrode a virus,

vaccinations for children over 12, declaring the found tech buys the vaccine safe and effective for young people. under 30 year old family business destroy overnight report for many railey town this months, flat up and the conflict with the skinny and the stuck to violence between communities. ah, i'm so gay. welcome to the program. germany has acknowledged for the 1st time that it committed genocide during its colonial rule in what's now namibia and southern africa. german troops massacre tens of thousands of herrera and nama people at the start of the 20th century. well, it is to apologize and fun projects in the maybe it was more than a 1000000000 euros. the small clock in berlin's nikon district remains the only

visible memorial in germany of the violence committed in the media. now the german government says it is looking for real reconciliation. 1.1000000000 euros will be given to support development and namibia focusing on projects for the ethnic groups once targeted by german colonizers. and then we will now also in an official capacity call these events what they were from today perspective a genocide focus. we thereby also acknowledge how his story cool, responsibility demolition, and in the light of this historical and moral responsibility of germany, we will ask and maybe a and the descendants of the victims for forgiveness between 1904 and 19 o. 8 german imperial forces in what was then known as german south west africa, violently suppressed uprisings by the nama and herrera ethnic groups, and forced them into the, does it tens of thousands of herrera and nama was shot,

starved, and tortured to death by german troops. it is estimated that 3 quarters of the herrera and half of the non people were wiped out. it took an entire century for a german politician to even recognize it happened. i asked you to forgive us our trespass. precipices and our guilt. but the german government of the time, back peddled, saying the minister had spoken as a private pass and herero nama groups, have consistently demanded an official apology and financial reparations from the german government. for what historians consider the 20th century 1st genocide, germany has insisted on negotiating a reconciliation deal with the namibian government, not the victims, descendants. germany is just beginning to reckon with its colonial pass. this reconciliation deal is one step in that direction. pick this up with joshua quite

the akins, there's a political scientist at the university of a castle. welcome to the w. germany. foreign minister says this is a 1st step in the right direction. herero, a non representative say they've been excluded from the process. what do you think should they have had the greater voice? yes, i definitely think they should have a greater voice given the fact that the borders of what is the nivia have basically been drafted right here in berlin, in the famous africa conference of 188485. so to now limit, you know, these negotiations wouldn't be in government, and a few select individuals is really not good enough. it actually continues a colonial hierarchy and the colonial construction, right? so the people who were affected should of course, have been at the center of these negotiations. the german government would say, well, as a government, we have to deal with a government. we just deal with individuals who say they were this battle or the

other. so surely, it is legitimate for the german government to deal with the government of namibia. of course, it's legitimate to deal with the government of namibia, however, not at the cost of excluding the descendants of those who have been wronged and they are historical precedent for this, germany has been able to negotiate, for example, not just with the state of israel, but also with the various groups of the jewish they asked from, right, we also would like to remind everybody that there is a declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples, which also at the u. n. double, right. which also offers a framework that enables governments to directly be in touch with and include indigenous peoples in such negotiations. precisely because of the recognition that many borders are colonial. and therefore, many governments do not fully represent the interest of everybody who find themselves in the territory today. it's interesting if you bring a photo session with israel, because it to people about to ask how much has

a race been a factor? and the german government's a long refusal to acknowledge this genocide. i mean, is it legitimate or indeed instructive to compare germany's adult image of its genocide against black victims a 100 years ago and thousands of miles away with a treatment of jewish genocide victims? well, i think it's important to recognize that there's history and their historical connections between these 2 events of martha biden's, each of which of course needs to be on the life you know, in their own context and their own merit. however, it would also be wrong to eigen it, to ignore the fact that they are, for example, personal continuities. people who did racist science, including the maybe a later rose to high positions in the national socialist regime. and were also instrumental in designing aspect of the schwab and the genocide of peoples that the nazis deemed to be, you know, unfit for life based on science that had some of its origins in color,

namibia and so live. yes, there are connections. there's continuity, i figured probably better nice talking about funding projects worth more than a 1000000000 euros in namibia, but it is clear that this money is not reparations or compensation. why is that distinction important? well i think the german government is still afraid of the legal ramifications of a full recognition of the genocide. and this is where we heard for mister moss, you know, using this language of saying that, you know, it would today be considered a genocide. here again, we have un precedent. there's a double declaration that germany signed saying that mosse atrocities and crimes against humanity committed during colonialism should have counted as such at all times. so, japanese, actually, we need to mean, you know, falling behind its own standards here. precisely because, you know,

of the fear that legal action could be taken, which could lead to further reparations. now, of course, it's clear that so called development assistance can not be classified as recreation to any shape or form, simply because there are conditions that come with this money. and of course, if you say, you know, the wrong has been committed and he has recompense conditions can never be attached to such money. and so therefore, it's of course, correct to say that such money is not reparations, but it's also this ingenious to connect us money in any shape or form to some kind of recognition of the genocide which again is incomplete as we speak. and so just just so i'm clear, what do you think is behind the german government, the various german government's refusal over a 100 years to, to, to acknowledge this genocide. why does it take them so long to get here? all i think on the one hand, it is a eurocentric perspective on history that,

you know, focuses on certain aspects of history. and you know, forget about others are conveniently ignores the importance of others. and then again, there's also the issue of legal cases that happened brought by various or number organizations, for example, in new york. and there is legal precedent where for example, victims of the nazi regime specific, specifically people who have been forced into forced labor by various german companies during the nazi era house successfully sued these companies and the german government. what is legal precedent? and there is grounds to actually fear that any full recognition could and should actually lead to further claims for reparations. and we thank you for your time, joshua kweisi agents, political scientist and the university of castle and france and germany. i was seeking to help south africa boost vaccination production to tackle the code of

ours pandemic for president emmanuel macro met the south african count about to run the pose. the emperor toria, france is a proponent of waving pain rights and kind of in 1900 vaccine. and health minister against bond is also in the country. germany does want to boost south africa that domestic cove in 1900 vaccine production south africa has been hon. hit by the can pandemic with more than 55000 debt. the european medicines agency is approved to cope in 1900 faxing for children. the m a says the bond tech fires of axiom is safe for young people between 12 and 15. highly effective. germany says it will start offering vaccinations to children. the 3rd is the 7th of june. other countries like the u. s. kind and china and canada are already in connecting children from the age of 12, get more from dw corresponding to bob available in brussels. welcome, barbara. what's behind this decision? now and of course, the european medicines agency has looked at the clinical data that were provided by

pfizer by on tech. there was a big clinical study big in this context means about 2000 adolescents. they didn't have a single case of infection. so they came to the result, they said the action really is 100 percent effective in this young age group. and they also didn't find any noticeable side effects. so the may said it's safe for teenagers to use. and you can follow the example of the united states and some other countries that are already doing this. and so now it is up to the member states of the european union. and of course, up to the individual parents to decide whether they want this for their children or not. there were some politicians in brussels who had really and some help experts here who had really pushed for this decision to come as quickly as possible because they say, who knew this is really important for is young people,

teenagers with certain underlying conditions, for instance, was down syndrome are some respiratory illnesses that predisposed them in a really dangerous way to get over it and to get very severely ill from cove it. and so particularly decision decision was sort of geared towards them. but of course many, many countries already have been waiting for it and i want to be ready to go very soon. i thank you for that. barbara w correspondent, barbara fatal and brussels. this month's plan of violence between israel and palestinians as the stone tensions in israeli cities where jewish and our communities live, side by side. the ladies conflicts of fame, neighbors in some places turn against each other. the w correspondent, tiny kramer said, this report from the town of log where residence trying to pick up the pieces while the flames made their way quickly. services tire shop on the outskirts of a lot of money where he is still in shock. his father's family,

business of 30 years, destroyed in just one night a lawyer. i feel a sense of loss being lost and we thank god we have our faith and we believe that god will restore our rights. and we hope that all will be rebuilt. it will be a period that will pass or follow, subtler had more angela. the flames didn't stop at his store. they also burned down a computer repair shop next door belonging to the father of us, but now the young jewish is really video game developer had spent a whole year creating a new stage of a game. now it's all gone. both respect, the shop was targeted by extremists from outside the city, but there's no evidence to before the riots, some young people came and looked around, checking out which businesses are jewish, which are era leaky. and for me personally,

and it reminded me of terrible times in our jewish history because it hurts, it really hurts to see so much fire and hatred. but she was both a residence or a town in the center of israel, which has seen some of the worst violence in decades between jewish, israeli, and our israeli citizens. the violence about that not just and luke, but also in many other like cities in israel, protests but also parent to revenge attacks by arab and jewish mops. fueled by long standing issues, but also recent tensions over jerusalem. israeli police responded forcefully for us, where he d and you know, there's only one way forward. there are in it together through a crowd funding campaign to help to rebuild their livelihoods. the vari remains the same. yes, we're scared. i worry the jewish extremists are looking for me and will tag me as someone who cooperates with arrows as if that's a wrong thing to do. who lima v me,

she's a q and ask met is also worried that he'll be singled up by his community. but enough is enough, we need to say what we think and not be scared. we don't, we have a choice that i get that much. of course, we also had the future looks uncertain here and across the country, violence within communities and israel has left everyone in shock. that's the job today. it's more world news and the top of the hour. what's your business updates? next? good news . me species and expedition

look into the secret language of wales.
