10:33 am
rather play at home near the end of the nig. lisa, i'm wondering if there's a lot of anxiety about air pollution. especially in jakarta. nothing else needed any jump out of the court. i am looking. unfortunately, we had to resign ourselves to living in a city that has one of the highest rates of air pollution in the world to pick up from the printer. you see the a lot of the demand . yeah. but people with asthma like my son or me need to avoid breathing and dirty air whenever possible. when daddy i gap or does it, we have to wear

10:35 am
country used to have a lot more green areas now they're gone. yeah. because of people seeking profits from new building projects everywhere the ah, you need to now we reco randa home, which we designed and built. it's a combination of a family home and large. and you know, does he and the entire building is covered in education, improving the micro climate around the location. you might see equally micro and it's even possible to lower the room temperature inside the building by around one to 5 degrees centimeter. and at least municipally mob,
10:36 am
sometime just in the wish, we could move to the mountain where the cooler but not too cold. one where there are still lots of trees, like in a village and up upon me if we can create an icon on the face on the environment, we have all of that, all of this in place. now the question is, how are we, you actually reduce the carbon emissions when you need to, to balance all, all of the elements simpler. yes. put that into the city state. singapore strikes
10:37 am
a balance between humans when they're built up environment msl monday, and it's design incorporates in nature and buildings in a harmonious way along in the designs. when years now growing awareness about the issue are getting more and i had taken down to the park as a really positive impact on his health. and it's all the among high hopes for did on monday he was smart and lively from a very young age. i left i hope his asthma can be cured, so he can run around and play with his friends again, mine mine and not get tired so quickly. up on another country grappling with air pollution. is iran with the pandemic
10:38 am
international sanctions, economic hardship, making everyday life a challenge? climate change is rarely tell us the agenda. but in the capital tay, ron individuals pushing and peddling for change riding a bike through the streets of iran is a potentially hazardous activity. exhaust emission levels here up to 8 times higher than w h. safety recommendations. mississippi is also in smothered in smug 57 year old and was not the re wants to change this. she studied abroad and now runs a cafe in tehran. she recently joined the group of young people who call themselves green clubs. their goal is to make the city greener. the bigger problem is,
10:39 am
we don't see the potential alternatives. we're saying that because one has a lot of traffic and has a lot of pollution, it's impossible to write the bicycle or to walk or to rod. but with the fact is, we're running the reduce pollution and does not really say is the meeting point for a small dedicated cycle community twice a week. the group of his re repair services and coffee. many of the cyclists, a women, though they're not expressly prohibited from riding bicycles. a lot of hard line is continue to insist that on this nomic. but according to these women, a lot of iranians differently how much most of the reactions i get when people say me back in a positive and a lot of people encouraged me,
10:40 am
especially women. they kept me from mc how windows hung loudly and call that marcia la, how great for eleanor's knows, the recycling presented a business opportunity. during the pandemic, she started selling sour dough bread. this allowed her to continue earning money during the lockdown. initially one of the biggest challenges was handling deliveries. she asked a few of her sites and soon she had a small fleet volunteer seat korea. the very great. we started with 4 cyclist about 2 months ago. now the club is close to $100.00. 1 of the cyclists, photographers, shantina every week he takes an afternoon off so he can take pos, atlanta, georgia. that was up until now we haven't had the infrastructure for biking those.
10:41 am
and thanks to our efforts, we can hopefully make officials aware of the fact that there are people like us out there. but maybe then they'll build bike lanes all over the city. and i'll say go sean team and his friend mohammed a heading to touch, reach in neighborhood in the north of the city by claims are still quite rare. his well the leader of the pack is paris, tennessee. the mayor of k run since 2018 that he only cycles with male colleagues. his regarded as a reform oriented politician every tuesday. he rides with them as part of an event known as call free tuesday. talking about it and on the years into iraq, we thought only because we built roads purely for automobiles, which effectively only encourages people to drive them time for us to rethink things and create more public space for bikes and pedestrians in target. and they go to that, his goal is that within the next 5 years, such as will make up 5 percent of the traffic in tehran. currently,
10:42 am
it's less than one percent. already shantina has reached his 1st customer on the day of the day says she uses the green delivery service once a week. it avoids my traffic time consuming traffic and tear on i make new acquaintances. i love having tea with all the people that come here as volunteers, shantina and mohammed makes time for tea for the time being customers don't have to pay for their service. and i really like doing it because i like contributing to my cities development. i mean, it's good that more people ride bikes, but also the companies are supporting our movement. so i know it's not really the scheme is more of a movement than a profit making venture. like many other food service workers during the pandemic,
10:43 am
she's had to fight to survive. but she still stones by her project. where ever leave the one where it says this business. i wanted something more than just the walls and the food and the name to stay behind me. i want it to start a movement, something to be remembered and something that could be continued. listen without me . her goal is to reach as many people as possible. she believes that's the only way the movement will have a real chance in iran in other parts of the world, cycling is a lot more straightforward with high quality lane shielding, right? is from the surrounding traffic, given conditions of this kind, a lot of people will willingly leave that calls at home. in the germans city, admin stuff well over a 3rd of commuters get from a to b by bike in making cycling attractive is also the key goal of an initiative
10:44 am
underway in the city of belo. horizontal in southeast, in brazil, for a country designed with cause in mind. it's an especially significant move for this week's global ideas. all report to be anchor cops went to find out more the streets are coordinate dos and the new speed limits. chinese up able interview is the sustainable mobility officer. with an ambitious mission, she wants to radically reduce the flow of traffic in the brazilian city of below or result. well, because it's not going to suffer that same thing we'll do is turn our blueprint into something tangible so we can start working up the ideas to reclaim the street . that means fewer cars and more kids playing outside though their numbers are smaller than usual due to the pandemic, a group of volunteers have come to help the st artist intended to reinforce the
10:45 am
point in many parts of brazil, a speed limit of 30 kilometers an hour his barely conceivable flowing is devised and i've always dreamed of a slow pace, $31.00 which allows pedestrians and cyclists to move about safely o v. as on the 13th, i told him 30 that says that you know mrs. b, as a way to pursue the stream with his on the air will be monitored to find out what difference the new speed limit has on emissions levels. the volunteers use sand, cement, and clay to create st furniture. it's the same technique that was used to build the great wall of china. simple, stable and and one of them getting locals involved in the planning stage. that was important to everyone
10:46 am
that if this various people took part in the discussions, mothers who use the space talked about their kids needs to paypal express, what they needed. it was very interesting because it was such a collaborative process about the new 30 kilometers own includes a bike path which links both the affluent area of census at asia as well as more deprived surrounding areas with the rest of the city today. evelyn and her colleague are going on in inspection look, the cars are already slowing down the scheme as part of a larger scale project called urban pathways. it's sponsored by an international climate protection initiative. it's a short stretch, but by the connection with one of the main psycho means in the city. it offers a viable alternative to driving a car as fast as you had already been using this route on
10:47 am
a daily basis. but it was very unsafe. this stretch over the vidal was really important to us, was to bother. you also said lisa, now i've been a cyclist myself for years my children are 2. and now i have a grandson who is learning to ride? i mean, i don't know, i'm creating a better city for us. all 3 jewels to bicycle did they don't or result is located in the south eastern state of nina shed eyes and is one of the largest cities in brazil. traffic here is heavy. brazil is a country designed around cars, and that's one of the highest rates of road fatalities in the world. for years, authorities have been investing in public transport and cycle pads, but of the 400 kilometers of cycle millions promised. only a quarter of actually been built prompting frustration from cyclists. this is fibers aren't aware of what we need. the bikes are a viable mode of transport each principal. so that's why the creation of cycle
10:48 am
passed is important to view this, it's moving to discover a new cycle pass. i'm not sure of you know, the transformation is almost complete. just a few finishing touches from the volunteers overall, it's a simple and highly cost effective initiative. ever lean in a team of volunteers are pleased with their work and hope their project can serve as a blueprint for others. so but i thought i'm really touched it, so i'm very thankful to everyone who helped create this is required. time is work day in and day out. it makes you feel like you swimming upstream together. we did it. i'm thank you very much. i used to say it's, but i got my the project is had
10:49 am
a far reaching effect. not only has it reduced traffic and benefited the environment, it's also boosted social cohesion, all the more significant during a pandemic. local residents keep the area clean. for those who are involved in the conception of the project, it's especially rewarding. the children's relations have really come to fruition. it was an interesting process and amazing to say how the whole thing became a reality right here in our neighborhood lot. and this is become a communal space more and more people coming here, which in turn makes the area safer. and that to brings more people here. it's a psycho focus there only a few areas in which a speed limit has been introduced. it's a fresh way of thinking about public space. i think the whole city to do with a re thing. evelyn has also brought her family alone to check out the
10:50 am
project. but i did, i did. this is what i work for so that kids can play safely on the street. we want people to be able to enjoy public space safely. well said, what if i started this project may seem small, but it changes perceptions and culture. and that makes me really happy, though you could be fairly the success of this project in beta or result. you could form the basis of positive changes all over the city and beyond. tim children's one giant problem. and we would be invited to
10:51 am
how will the climate change affect us and our children learn more d, w dot com slash water. plastic packaging is lightweight, cheap, and practical. according to the un, some 400000 tons of it produced every year, much which is used just once before being tossed in the trash the pandemic, because only exacerbated the problem with disposable masks, gloves, and other medical waste, polluting the environment. we find out how people in gonna a tackling the issue. this leads to the east have gone as capital a crime is drowning and plastic trash, richmond, clark. oh and his friends are collecting it. well aware that in a couple of weeks it'll be just as bad. again, we just have more than the dumpster. this is the little pod. i prefer to keep it safe. and we believe that collective action or responsibility was,
10:52 am
should move the was authentic. the packaging solution. they've carried out over a 1000 fleets altogether and their battle against the global plastic tsunami. they pick up everything from the supermarket bags to fishing nets. now, even waste from the cove at 19 pandemic is washing the shore. yeah, but anyway, we can, we will find some medical phase, which of course came out on the outbreak of the fund damage gift. i knew streams of weight, it will be great for both reports. re double my to reduce this because the single use my is really becoming another, found them making the find damage. the activists get modest financial support from a variety of organizations. even the you there alarmed, especially by series of new studies, would say that over the next 20 years, the amount of plastic in the world's oceans will double to a total of $600000000.00 tons. the maritime plastic deluge has taken on a life of its own. doctor emma, who of crawley university,
10:53 am
is studying the damage done to the ocean. it takes hundreds or even thousands of years who plastic to decompose that it gradually breaks up into ever smaller ponds . the smallest of them, the nanoparticles now found in fish. r. a huge problem for going a in plastic that made i did see sally and little chemicals. these flat plastic gets in the fish and then we consume the fish . and then what happens? we end up consuming the chemicals into our own bodies. it's a big challenge, not just for the ocean and the eco system, but also for human. one more reason forgot to press ahead with recycling. plastic manufacturer minutes last has grown to be one of the country's most important plastic suppliers. it produces 2 types of plastic, plastic made from fresh materials and recycled. plastics.
10:54 am
is something that came out of necessity. the cost money was expensive. we found out ways of recycling the matea we're talking about almost 20 years ago when recycling in guy. and i was very little. we have 50 percent of our production as a result of recycled material. and we also produce and sell to other factories, but not only that is that we believe that in the next 10 years there will not be a single drop of virgin material. restocking trash means revenues for the company and jobs for its work has the tasks of collecting and processing plastics provide a valuable opportunity to earn an income in a country where jobs can be hard to come by. off to the plastic has been segregated by type and color. it's processed into a molten mass which is converted into granulated plastic. the approach has many benefits. recycling have lots of jobs and a well,
10:55 am
this is something that is very needed here. we have developed 3 plans that collect for us, shred and recycling. and those are fed by smaller plans to whom we give always trainings and financial help through ourselves. and sometimes through g, i said, from your country and other organizations, many plans is especially environmentally conscientious, getting 2 thirds of its power from the sun. however, where the beach meets the city of across the activists from plastic punch, se recycling is good, but waste prevention is better. so they also want people to think about how they live community might change the mindset on how they all handled these items in the daily life. so that's the essence to do some form of hope that we are messing up and we deserve to make it better for them as generations. this is
10:56 am
a message about ways, prevention and reciting. it'll take both to tackle climate change and not only in gonna that so from us that global 3000 this week. don't forget to write to us that global 3000 d w dot com until next time. take care the me the news, the news
