and just diffraction of them recycled the mountains of plastic waste or expanding steadily. the majority of plastic trash is dumped, burns, or ends up somewhere in the environment. around $25000000.00 tons of plastic waste and has already sions that's around one truckload per minute. if this continues in 10 years it will be 2 truckloads and by 2054 per minute then that will be more plastic than fish. in this see me plastic need centuries to decompose so many future generations will have to face the repercussions. the value of it today. series unseen ames to open our eyes to environmental impacts, which are easy to overlook this week, we had to malaysia me

. this is just both. now for the final ingredient, the the, you'd never use plastic. you see, he, chances are you already doing stuff is the the food has always been the part of my life. it brings my family together and i love it so much. i've made a living out of it. i am the host of the number one food show. emily's

dimmer organism, so human have, but what we can call it is not a good thing for us to the effects that has entered into our system of much of a big problem, the policy makers or the government itself, actually a very important role in reducing last big waste the ends up in ocean that it's mismanaged. the law. plastic for produce the mon, michael. there will be contrary to popular belief. michael patrick's chest. the

we know had one of the most of the book in turn. daniel, and we would like to investigate the apple and michael bus to release this up for one home. the ah, this is what we have right now. we have several types of my school bus cases, such as a filament strip light in some fragments. this is what we read about reading the really stopped breathing while we breathing in plastic right now the i think one of the things that we should do is useless gothic 1st use blasting. the use must,

thanks me. you think we have to do our part to ensure that the plastic goes into the oceans, because what goes into the ocean goes into the animals, goes into the very environment, goes into the bush to the water. right back to us found out in your toilet. michael plastic permits as well. we can do something about it every single minute of every single day. we can choose how we buy and we choose what food we eat. and we can also choose how we threw out or manage our waste. and by finding out that we can actually recycle or up cycle, at least we can prevent the cycle from, you know, repeating. i do want to sound too preachy. but after learning what we've learned, we really have to put the message out that every person should have the

responsibility of. when we leave this earth, going to leave a little bit better than when we found it. if every person on the we would leave a better for children, children. sure. so at least, you know, we've got to do right. in renewable energy still says that gradually gaining ground over the past decade. the share of energy generated by the sun and wind globally increased from 8.7 percent to 11.2 percent. that's the good news about the same time global energy consumption is also rising. the bad news is that within the energy mix, the proportion of energy generated from fossil fuels remains constant in 2009 electricity gain from oil, cold and gas made up over 80 percent of the global energy use. and it's still, it's 10 years later in 2019 as energy demand increases. so therefore does our

consumption of fossil fuel. it's time to step up, the shift to renewables and in the dominican republic and vicious energy transition is well underway. frog global ideas, theories are reported. catchy, went back to find out more the market day in savannah. rio and villages are coming together to little mountain village lives in the west, the dominican republic right on the border with neighboring haiti. mm hm. i see that mountain over there where it looks pale. the ground is totally dried up. that's part of a t. v i have he is one of the world's poorest countries. by contrast, the dominican republic economy has been booming for years. yet little of that prosperity makes its way to the border region in the west of the country. just

leave that money. i'm a community leader responsible for the development and progress in our village and fighting for them because many people are leaving due to the lack of help and work one of the most pressing problems here is that the villages have no electricity. well i think that if the yellow one i've been doing laundry for 3 days, it rained, which is why it's taken so long. washing clothes by hand is pretty tiring. my back hurts. if i had a washing machine, things would be much easier. but i have neither light nor washing machine. josephina center is also worried about her children's education. the school is closed due to the corona virus pandemic. so they need to learn from home online. but how is that supposed to work without

a computer or the power to run it in the next month? all going well, major changes are install forced upon a real claim. and since i've been from the german development agency, g, eyes that is working on the dominican republic energy transition. now he's bringing renewable energy here that you don't, i don't get beaten the government after to support them with a small centralized photo voltaic facility for supply power to the village in the us to meet there's room to us walking definitive, have had some experience with soda energy, they pooled their money to install solar power street lights. building roofs were also equipped with many solar panels years ago, though most with stolen sold or no longer work. but that should change in the future thanks to improve technology,

essential life. so the power plant will deliver electricity right to people's homes . so binary oh, will have its own power. grant is a solar john, just like it has already been built in another vintage a few hours drive away in the south of the country. thanks to the sun, 50 families here will soon have electricity and internet access got farm leave. you have an idea about each family will pay a monthly fee and this money will insure the system sustainability if something needs repairing or replacing. they'll have enough resources to restore the entire system over time. but i don't want to deal with all of the annual renewal energies are gaining ground throughout the country, but it's just the stones of a long journey. 85 percent of the dominican republic energy still comes from fossil fuels. for example, the coal fired pointer,

catalina palace station produces one 3rd of the country's energy alone. but the dominican republic is trying to switch to cleaner forms of energy, and it seems to be on the right path. the biggest soda phones in the caribbean are located here, including the monte christie solar pump, which covers an area of over $200.00 hector's. at 115 such projects. by the year 2025, a quarter of the country's energy is expected to come from renewable sources. like it's 9 wind farms including met a phone, go with it's 17 turbines. the wind is a powerful force in the caribbean, especially during hurricane season. so we most who say yesterday we had a wind speed 11. me just can talk more about it. and now facility was going at full tilt with more monumental hurricane the turbines will switch off once the

wind speed hits 25 meters per 2nd. it's a self defense mechanism, and they haven't, i feel a little bit but wind is hard to control. that's one of the laws of demand refer to renewable energy's as an non gets to nobliss energy sources that are unmanageable. and they are full and reliable ticket. and vinegar in cups and stuck into people's heads a bit. i'm so especially at the start of this project that was clear resistance to this variable, renewable energy operating and because of the fear. but the impact on the quality of the power network takes of dish that old let's teeth in the capital center domingo base. now essential control center which helps provide a better overview of the energy supply. how much energy is currently being produced by the big coal and oil power plants? how much by carbon neutral facilities. the biggest challenge, if you calculate the power being generated at the big solar parks,

will now blank for now with one minute solar power plant can be producing a lot of energy and then a cloud comes in. suddenly there's less and there's nothing the operator can do to controller square allowable. the more data they receive, the smaller the difference between prediction and reality. little by little trust and wind and solar power is growing. ah, binary, you know, people are already sold on the new solar power plant. the village elders have already picked out a place for it. because if folks have electricity, they won't want to leave a village, says nelson. when will give us a good we be in this area because no one wants to leave the community. there's no better place than here. thing, it's quiet and free, that pollution of all we need is a better quality of life. as many as 300000 people in the

dominican republic still live without pallet. soon 50 more families will be enjoying the benefits of electricity. is this week global snack? we try something sweet from south africa. ah. ah vocab. lived at the foot of signal hill in cape town. the muslim influence quarters or nouns for its colorful houses and steve valley ways. ah, it's home to cooper my. how much are auntie cooper? she's known in the neighborhood. her speciality is cook sister, sticky, spicy deep fried pastry among the sunday breakfast invoke up. ah, the cook. this done from those years when the

you place them all over the show and then this one who me is from myself, my life, he's the police. the cobra can sell up 2000 cooks. this is on sunday mornings and winter a few less and summer. ah, because south africans loved them so much. september 1st has been official world cooks history day since 2019. ah. c that's all from us that global 3000. don't forget to drop us a line to level 3000 d, w dot com. to check the sounds on space that sees the w global ideas. the the the

discover the world around subscribed to w documentary on youtube. touched forests and dying trees. germany is feeling the heat of climate change. what can be done to help plant trees, for example, the pan african green belt movement has long away and can medical research be conducted without laboratory mice. all us, i'm all coming up the to tomorrow today, your science show unbeatable. use the mice on

by far the most common and oratory animals especially bread for this purpose for around a century. without them many medical breakthroughs wouldn't have been possible. for instance, lab might have been used to study the immune system, as well as in cancer research and drug development. in the russian city of novels appears, a monument has even been erected in their honor. so there are no alternatives. lab mice, us to indispensable to scientific research. ah, this me, as does invaluable work at the max planck institute for molecular genetics in berlin. it helps the scientists here gain insights into congenital malformations. today it's due to be inspected by professor stefan mont los and his

team. at 1st glance, it looks just like any other regular mess. but then you notice that the 4 of its toes are missing. it was also want to find out what causes this kind of developmental defects or the most the mouse is a useful object to study because of how closely we can track its development, of course. but ultimately we're investigating a human disease and a human phenotype, as we call it, the placement. it's about patients who exhibit similar developmental defects in leisure and becomes the researchers use genetic engineering to create the defect altering mass genes. so their offspring are born with abnormalities. the mice now have the same genetic defect as the professors patients of the sherita university hospital. they way we can see how similar the changes are when the to

side completely different, which is typical because the physical expression varies widely. or you can see several thing is missing here. the other 2 are missing. on the other side, they're only partially developed and they're also partially fused or don't know where the fresh medicine that nanda, when does this, in contents quite similar to what we see appear in the mouse. but i'm also genetic comparisons of sick and healthy might help the scientists figure out the exact cause and frequency of the mouth formations. ringback busy the max planck institute lab has its own facility for breathing. the animals. the 1st laboratory mice were bred in the early 20th century. they've since been involved in various medical breakthroughs, such as the development of insulin, antibiotics and cancer treatments. like their counterparts in the wild, they have a natural curiosity and a rapid reproduction race. what makes them ideal test subjects are their genetic

similarities to human. scientists use genetic scissors to alter a message, genetic makeup by switching particular genes on or off, or introducing new genetic material. over the decades, the institute standard lab mazda spawn hundreds of new genetic lines, including my so the predisposition for diabetes, obesity, and breast cancer. ah, the aim is to decipher the genetic causes of malformations and diseases that might have been key to a host of nobel prize winning research projects. the mice at the institute for molecular genetics are used for basic research. as are almost half of all test animals. the other half are used to develop drug treatment or vaccines. each animal experiment here has to be approved and deemed essential for resolving scientific questions. but the moral dilemma remains. is it right for us to conduct

tests on animals which result in pain distress and even death? currently is often no effective alternative stefan mon, close feeling a come on love, which are a lot of tests can be done using cell coaches these days. it's measuring the toxicity of various substances. for instance, normally covered when it comes to developing new drugs, you have to see what it does to an entire organism booked. and some of those effects are hard to predict. the effect had to be montgomery for years, and that's why there isn't really a viable alternative. it does. and of course, when you order tissues, it's a spin off developed at the berlin technical university. it's teams develop chips that could take the place of animals and drug trials. they contain miniature versions of human organs. by this is chip queue, which currently has liver and bone marrow cells. we hope it will replace animal experiments in drug development. we also have chip for where we can test organs and

we're currently developing a chip for 10 organ, sits in oregon. the scientists isolate human cells, for example, from human blood, bone marrow, the intestines are the liver, and use them to make tiny organ emulators for drug testing. researcher louise old myers check into quality of liver cells that have been ordered by a customer for tests. ah, computer kind of mentally about and right now i'm using a microscope to examine my liver cells, which i keep in different media. now on day 7, i'm looking at how they're doing and they look quite lively. and so i'm happy of the slide miss me. that supervisor alexandra lawrence, shows us how the chip works. has a micro pump that conveys a blood like nutrient solution from one miniature, oregon to the next. this simulates processes that take place in the human body. ah, they can, those maybe can,

we can put some of the junk into chip. and because we use human cells, we can gauge the effectiveness far better than an animal experiments. some of them and animal experiments. yes, this is more effective. the organ ship is placing an incubator as a temperature of $37.00 degrees celsius. the start of hope, these chips will soon make drug trials and many other animal experiments redundant . but the multi organ ship won't be able to test the impact of genetic mutations. for that there's still no alternative to lab mice ah. ready i, if i was let, is read, why do you have a question you'd like us to send it in? if we featured on the show, you'll get a little surprise from us as a thank you. come on just this week's view question comes from

veronica in mexico. why is learning to love yourself so important? feel health. take babies. what do they have to do to be loved? nothing with practically hard wired to find them lovable. but soon were expected to be great at school. then learned an amazing job that pays heaps of money. when to turn it off, we supposed to look fabulous to people make demands on us. we make demands on ourselves. we set our expectations, sky high thinking if we liked, and myers will feel good about ourselves. but often that's a house of cons. when it comes to self. esteem varies and study says that young people tend to be very critical of their appearance because they compare themselves to others or believe that others find them ugly. banner x

in alcohol, abuse, burn out and depression. many people who suffer from mental health is use also find it hard to love themselves. why? because something's missing. and that's a good relationship with ourselves. so relationship in which we're aware of our own needs and treat ourselves with loving care. loving yourself doesn't mean that you worship the ground. you walk on it's about excepting yourself. as you just like we accept the people we love the way they walk turned all so how can we do that? step one except how you feel and how you look, be okay with this right now in this very moment. therapists also recommend we

reflect on the amazing things our bodies do for us every day. you might end up feeling something like gratitude. enjoy in the moment, which is a good step on the path to learning to love yourself. ah, you can find more fascinating stories from the world us times on our website and on twitter, the every year. millions of hector's of rain forests are lost in 2020 even more disappeared in the year before. many products contain tropical wood. but where is that from labels on certified goods are supposed to make their origin more transparent. but does that make them green it to me? another tree is being cut down and one of the world's primeval forest,

the wood harvested from them qualifies for certification by the forest stewardship council. even though old growth forests are crucial to the health of the planet, the fee is an international organization committed to sustainable forest management . them also proclaims 1st for all, for ever there is the man who to the bridge to make sure the healthy a lot of customers who buy f s c certified products, choose them because they believe it's for a good cause. it is actually true. nature conservation expert, it has carried out a scientific analysis of the f s. c set vacation system. does f, a c z state feel whole. the label stands for words that has been harvested in a variety of ways. it might come from huge, clear cutting in old growth forest from eucalyptus plantations in rain forest areas

could be in a logical terms. it doesn't necessarily mean responsible forest management for those. so consumers shouldn't be led to expect that they get pushed the, the accuracy is made up of the 3 chambers, each with an equal voice, but very different interests, indigenous peoples, environmental organizations, and the timber industry. me. but why do you logging companies have a say in the f s these management criteria? we couldn't get an interview with the f s these global h q, but talk to the head of it's german bronze face kind of told her that she is not a conservation label. label to try to take the realities of our world into account when it comes to generating this valuable resource would as

a renewable raw material that entails maintaining ecological standards, while at the same time, respecting social concerns. as far as the f s. c is concerned that only works the lumber industry also has the same. and that's why even tropical timber from the peruvian rain forest can get the f. s the seal of approval. the stipulations include cutting down no mold in one tree on an area. the size of a circle page every 20 years. the conservation group say that even selective logging is harmful to the delicate rain forest ecosystem. on that still is brazil. the wood harvested from these eucalyptus plantations is also f. s c certified. in return. the timber companies have to meet the various commitments, including preserving the last remaining old growth forests in the region. the eucalyptus is native to australia is fast growth makes it popular. but plantations

like this are harmful to the ecosystem. they reduce diversity and extract more, was it from the soil than domestic trees. the timber is still f s t certified because the industry has pledged to mitigate the negative impacts and in the science ecological standards, there are socialist use, such as indigenous land use, right and workplace safety. there are also environmental issues like safeguarding waterways and ground water and reducing pesticide use and prostitute middle and said sweeten is also home to old. very forests, the trees here and mainly harvested by clear cutting, the timber they supply terms to be far as valuable in tropical woods. and that's why the focus here is on quantity, not quality areas that were until recently blanketed in trees, hundreds of years old. a stripped bare, ah, an old green forest, clear cut, but even this timber is f s c certified. why?

because s s t rules are designed to also take the host countries economic interests into accounts. in return, the login companies must meet ecological requirements that the f s c has deemed reasonable to determine whether the f s p system helps protect forest, pierre and his team travel to an old growth forest and russia. and 1st, the certified clear counting is also permitted in the candles greek and the research has compared areas with and without the f s. c label. they found that clear cutting in line with f s. c criteria brings no ecological benefits, and it has a serious impact on old growth forests. is in, in the region we're studying, we can say with relative certainty that the old growth forests will eventually be depleted. the next inflation leon,

as don flayson areas left where the forest might be able to grow again, giving them fights to its available land, grows hotter and dryer. we may end up seeing lessing damage to the ecosystem not initiated to go. this route was the same. some scientists like p f, e bish, and many conservation groups are opposed to any logging in old growth forests. they want the priority to be sustainability. the current f s c. rules don't meet that demand. that's why pierre says that certification labels aren't enough to protect the forests. and listen, we have to reduce wood consumption, companies, cutting down primeval forests in russia, paper, tissues, and toilet paper is completely unacceptable. was this whole and sustainable

forest management also means asking what the wood is used for flushing old growth forest down the toilet is anything but green even if the wood is specified in many parts of the world, the impact of deforestation can no longer be looked it increases global warming and contribution to soil erosion and desertification. for more than 40 years, the green belt movement has been fighting to preserve forest. it was founded by kenyan scientist, one got him a tiny, w series african re tells his story in a very special way. this is canyon biologist, one gary my time during a visit to our home village in the 1900 seventy's. and she noticed that local women have very little firewood and water to cook with them in

a situation that had their thinking back to her own childhood back then, the surrounding hills were covered with forests and the streams flowed with water. the trees were later cut down to make way for you, farmland, wreaking havoc on the ecosystem. quan gary, my tie decided to take action by planting trees. to prevent thought erosion, i keep the areas, water sources from drying up her work held revitalized the mansion regions and benefits of the entire country. oh my tie was a member of kenya's national council of women, and they also got on board in 1977, she founded the green belt movement. their tree planting campaign went on to attract high profile support in 1998 and a protected urban forest in the heart of nairobi was to be cut down for commercial

development on gary, my tie was ag raged. she and other women from the green belt movement took their protests to construction site that side career, a forest which had been set up on orders. the president, daniel, are up moy, they spent months mobilizing public support, other groups joined to protest. president moy refused to budge and sent in right police. the protests turned into violent confrontations. several protesters, including my tie, were injured. eventually, president more relented and ordered construction be stopped. and the activists made plans to restore the foreign norie when gary, my tie was convinced of planting trees, helped secure people's livelihoods. in 2004, she was awarded the nobel peace prize. when one gary my tie,

died in 2011. she was honored with the state funeral and more and around the world . her legacy is a green belt movement whose message is gone, global. the in honor of one god, metalli a tree was also planted in germany after head back then it was purely a symbolic test. but now germany too has a problem with drought and erosion in 2020 was classified as being the countries drought in a row. cut, planting, trees, and farmers fields help save german agriculture. no time at all. it's a couple 1000 trees. from this $25.00 per bundle stick to

real human as has big plans. she's hoping to see each of these cuttings grow into a fully grown tree in the middle of her parched fields from me. with the help of tank or cultural engineer michel might. she'd already planted some pump on or cuttings 2 months ago, but they didn't survive the spring time drought. a frustrating sit back. that was. it's unusual. this 50 percent failure rate right now as tough and absolute ended up happening that had a thing. we've never seen that before. not even the extremely dry summers of 20182019. then in the spring at least the ground was moist enough to force this type that this is you can see rush way that it's just too dry. it's like a sand bulk was on book, so let's say it's nothing to see. so now we just plant them deeper and using shoots that definitely reach down to the lower and moisture layers of soil and enforced on boarding systems. and the dried out samplings will be replaced the concept they're

following is acro forestry, incorporating trees into farming systems, to mitigate the effects of drought. this part of ne, germany is among the driest in the country. maria jimenez wants to be sure she's prepared for the likelihood of even dryer weather to come off. if everything turns out as we hope the trees will help us to store water in the fields of flesh by deployment. what's in the tree? sit down very deep roots and extract water from the lower layers of soil and with the evaporation. the entire area is cool down somewhat q and that makes it more likely that the crops between them will thrive. the trees will also help create humorous and protect the soil from erosion which also benefits that crops agro for a street or a mix of agriculture and forestry is

a promising concept in the fight against climate change. experts say that germany, for example, is likely to see not less rain, but 6 percent more. but in the winter, trees can help store that water for the summer when it's really needed. but agro forestry hasn't caught on widely yet. and part because it doesn't receive government funding kansas enough, but when you are applying for assistance, you can get funding to plant trees on farm and. and if you plant too many trees, you'll lose your farm and status. there are all sorts of disincentives that discourage farmers from creating agri, forestry systems. everything we're doing here is possible because we're not farmers where outsiders have been fortunate enough to acquire some land land. because maria hayman is, is an artist by profession, but also manages this farm, just south of berlin. so far without state support in 2007 agro forestry was

included in the european union's rural development program. but germany hasn't implemented it yet. in contrast to france, where the number of trees planted on farmland has increased significantly, studies have shown that 100 hector of agro forestry land produced the same yield is 140 hector's of conventionally farmland. so adding trees does make fields more productive if the saplings take root and about the saplings do get stressed when there's a summer drives that could happen here. if we don't get more rain, you think of them. so will the little poplar trees survive this summer? this time around it's been 5 weeks since they planted the pump, our cuttings in the sandy soil, south of berlin. so how are they doing? hadn't met in recent weeks. we've had more rain than in the last 2 years. a lot by

our standards. but it's still not enough on the ground, it's still as dry as in a desert. but it was enough for the trees. almost all the new ones we added have growing leads. they've been growing very nicely. decent. i look at the show of oxen . all that stands in the way of the young trees now is couched grass, but they don't use herbicides and instead do the weeding by hand poplars grow quickly, though these still need a few more years. but eventually, maria minnows hopes the poplars will provide her fields with much needed water and shade, even when there is no rain. ah, that's all for today. we'll be back next week with another addition of tomorrow
