ah, it is a testament to the quality of the waters one of the, any success stories from a bastion of biodiversity starts may 20th on dw ah, from the gardens of interim to miss support team you to the fields of modern day industrial farms. we've been producing food for millennia, but to the spectrum of consumption and production of how many people on the planet, on this additional pico india, we explore efforts, underweight, help fix appropriate food system. hello,

and welcome. i'm some of that i'm food waste is one example of just how broken the system is. why millions of people remain under fed. more than one 3rd of the food produced robin goes to wrist. yet in india, an estimated 40 percent is discarded. we visited and deli based start up, that's rescuing food destined from the dump by transforming it into feed for animals. ah, it's feeding dying on his dirty farm, and am bol the state of her young farm? jaundra morn has been in the business for 40 years. he's mindful that his cows get new just died. the hell didn't stronger animals the better and more abundant. the milk eater. savannah, did the still keep them gaining, but now we have access to

a good feed supply while we get more milk using it and it keeps our animals heli. it said that a lot of any of this for the, the suspicion it's made from food waste processed by the deli based startup, gracefully the company collect leftover food that it gets free of charge. and that would otherwise be discarded from $700.00 locations. and more than 50 cities across india, the company sees that mix it the largest food recycler in the country. food waste is one of the largest weights, the segments in india. and if you see the last 50 years, there has been work that has happened in plastics, recycling and electronic waste recycling. or when it comes to food, which does not in any innovation the last 2 years, the solution, the most popular solution to food waste that it, that is like, ah, most accepted form is composting or by

a guess. but composter was an unsatisfactory solution for snack manufacturer. to be honest, the company began producing healthy snacks from vegetables. 4 years ago. demand is high and as production has increased, so 2 has the quantity of its nutrient backed graps. if i talk about doing that any, shall it is odd since though volume was not that high. so the visitors were very live. but now they're of your playing in the volumes. now they're 5 percent expose and is there enough volume and which has to be recycled? or, you know, mitigated or maybe put into the best use that again to the company. now bosses, it's damaged goods on to westlake that saved the snack producer or disposal costs and supplies whistling with more of the raw materials. it needs what it feed, production, newtons of potatoes are so dotted due to farmers as big feet. most other food

raised is dried and ground. it's done packaged and deliver to animal food produce. when the ones that i for the facility it, you know, it is offload it. we know we way it by category to make sure that we had accurately available what quantity of what category we have that is punched into the inventory that we receive. and depending on the nutrition formulation of the, of the product that we have picked, we would decide what is the end goal for that goes into catalog poultry, aqua or swine. and then we prepared formulation mixes, but the recycling of leftover food is still the exception in india, even though it saves money and protected again, $1.00 most raised to simply left rock as decomposes it consumes oxygen and releases methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, or g a g for short, ah, so for example, a food lawson based was

a country. it would have been the 3rd largest carbon emitter like gm, gm, and i only after china and usa. so if you look at the problem, it's huge and there is a lot of potential to reduce food loss in vase and all the emissions and everything that goes into its input food produces on suddenly to blame for the mountains of food list, 40 percent of the food produced in india is loss due to inefficient supply chains. huge quantities of spoil as a result of long transport ropes, an inadequate ref address. social habits also play a role. for example, in india, in some cultures, deep preferred food left. otherwise it's like they have not made enough so they would want that they're still food on the table, but that can be taken care of it. but that's again a thank you. the issue converting food risk into animal font is one way to limit

the garbage to date. westinghouse processed 5000 dunn's and the market is growing with almost 51, and 40000000 animals. india has the largest livestock population in the world. demand for dr. feed is greater than the available supply. that's life lead manufacturer shot he has been buying additional feet from recently for the past 4 years to save on gone and grinned. cost in nor does better than oil. also. if you do, said vendor. do some re, luna, in the marysville undergrad energy in foster or neural william. you're doing the oil. we're lou, and then as you're a little don't real yet it's nutritional value makes the feet of winning solution for gender among the farmers. animals are healthy and happy, and the father is cheaper than conventional bronze. well,

as that report shows, food rest for many of us is an invisible process. that doesn't start in our kitchens. when we throw out anita left or was a spoilt produce, it begins out on the farms and in the fields where food is produced. that's where an organization and spin is focusing is efforts. it harvests perfectly edible fruit and vegetable rejects and billy was them to food banks, adding nutritional value to handouts for the needy. it's all hands on deck in this spinach field just outside barcelona and i could ask and the team of volunteers are collecting all they can to day their efforts will supply many needy people in the region with fresh food. but that was k. wow. there's so much i can't really gauge how much. yeah. but it should be enough to feed $100.00 families or even more on the quote a month. and i could ask works for the sb gallegos, the glee nurse,

the non profit organization collects left over crops after the commercial harvest on many fields in spain's catalonia region. this practice was more common before industrialized farming and the introduction of strict regulations. now it has been revived here by the s b will adults around 8 percent of the world's crops, i believe, to be lost at harvest time. the european union fruit and vegetables are rejected to fed too big or small and don't comply with appearance standards see out as done was in god, but they were in the field of spinach that hasn't been sold on the market because there was not enough demand for it under, in don't they see? not the we, it was cool he in though. so if we wouldn't be harvesting the spinner generally element, it would go to wayne asked her to be in there. okay. bassetti of the farmer would simply plow through the field here with his trying to get her to prepare it for the next harvest. but update, but audio got. so what we're doing here is removing the spinach is not to give it a 2nd opportunity. oh, but oddly enough,

they will know what the lead up last year alone, her organisation saves over 600000 killers of fruit and vegetables. in this way, the water and c o 2 emissions invested in their growth were not in vain. the rescued produce arrives in this warehouse. it's then distributed to charities across the region. avid the economic fall out from to pandemic. demand that's feigns food. banks has at times doubled. now rising prices and economic uncertainty caused by the warn, ukraine are putting more pressure on the vulnerable current enough on a phone to coordinate the deliveries at the warehouse in barcelona port a lap lackey on getting, am i from the people who are most in need have the poorest diet, what company now, because in the end, the cost of food determines what they eat theater, but at ensuring that they're supplied with a minimum of high quality. my basic producing is very important for these people's health. if they in let me finish how they qualify the volunteers activities helped

build momentum for the drafting of a regional bill to prevent food loss and waste. recently passed, the legislation promotes the practice of cleaning as a solution. a similar law will come into force nationwide. as beagle, others found our media barava is proud of that. she started the organisation in 2014. now she also runs in operation on the outskirts of fossil luna, that produces its own brand of preserves, made from food that otherwise would be thrown away to day. they're cooking a pumpkin recipe and apple sauce. people who work here come from disadvantaged backgrounds and have struggled with exclusion. now rather than we begin yet, this is only a small factory left with nascar and a geek. but unlike in an industrial sized factory of people who work hair, get the chance to try their hand at different jobs idea in every step of the production process. backing up with a socket though,

would it have if they they can prepare fruits and vegetables and cook them their money, but i can learn how to come them or how to rush on them. then bessalo, they the 5th gather it's a spring board to few to job opportunities that alina morales moved from honduras to spain, hoping for a better future. for years she struggled. the job here is a lifeline. media bought by and her team helped to obtain the work permits she never had before. now she has a steady income or more meet on that with an immigrant. you don't have a lot of opportunities to work. you either work on an hourly basis without a contract and they don't pay the same. or you just take any job whatever comes out without documents at all. very complicated. not only for me, but also for my daughter. but i almost gave up and went back to honduras, city planet alonzo to san mountain that in the past few years around 50 people

found a job here. financing is generated for the sales of the preserves and state funding committee. obama needs more soon. she wants to expand grammar for more. they don't embrace of yeah, we created a social business model that has 3 amy. so here let's get the reduction of food loss mainly of vegetables on free element the right to healthy nutrition for every one. but especially for those in a vulnerable situation, the but i pulled that off before and we also wanted to offer job opportunities for these people out in it out of what may have, how would i left off, but invalid went from i to miss projects as a model that can work not only on a national scale, but also internationally that did one though because in every city there were these 3 necessity as it which of the reason we exist at the, on an existence that depends on plenty of helping hands. the people here are happy to be contributing to a circular economy and social justice was that all had people in the long run with

our goal is to disappear daily. but that would only happen if problem with the food loss and the other social challenges we face and were solved as if it was so that might be a bit utopian. he annoyed the galenas of r. sedona are likely to have their work cut out for years to come, because there are still plenty of fields with an abundance to share. sign to see the global food system is harling the planets towards the climate disaster. not least because it's responsible for a ton of all greenhouse gas emissions. capital and other livestock produced the same amount of carbon emissions as the combined output of all the world's vehicles, trends, ships, and airplanes. many people have quit meet with the aim of reducing their individual footprint. but as that report are discovered, dairy products have similar effects on the environment. though, there may be valid pleasing alternatives. to make cheese,

you need milk and to make milk, you need animals, the emit loads of greenhouse gas emissions and use lots and lots of water. i mean, i really love cheese, but we need to talk about it. how hard is this piece of art freely on the environment? do i need to stop eating cheese and how the alternatives any better? and the best way to find out make some cheese yourself. cheese makers, paul and eula, have agreed to let me look over their shoulder for the day. paul used to work for large scale dairy operations, but gave it up to create his own cheese. and here comes the milk. we just need a couple of minutes for about 250 leaders. how many liters do you actually need to make one kilogram take out? that depends on the cheese recipe. so it also depends on the composition of the mill where quite lucky here we are working with a note for jesse cares. these carriers produce no very high solids.

the amount of milk that is use is actually extremely important because depending on which study you're looking at between 80 and 95 percent of cheeses, greenhouse gas emissions come from the milk. so the more not to use the worse for the planet. more than half of those emissions come from the farming process, because kaos other mil for using animals fart and breathe out methane again. that is $84.00 times more potent than c o. 2 at heating the planet. but milk from different kind of animals have different carbon footprints, cow and buffalo milk have the lowest with 2.8 and 3.4 kilograms of c o 2 per kilogram of milk. goat and chic milks impact is more than double that with $5.00 and $8.00. point 4 kilograms of c. o 2, herb o mega animals, pollute the planet. less per kilogram of milk. that's because cows or buffaloes

just produce more milk than a goes or shaped, for example. and because all these animals are ruminants and pump out methane, jesus covered footprint is actually bigger than that of poultry and even pork. more emissions than meat that is absolutely insane. but anyway, now that we got the milk, we need to heat it up and at some bacteria the go to day turning this into a gummy socrates. what we're starting here is a process called fermentation. the bacteria feast on the sugar that in the milk and break it down. after a while, we add a liquid called rennet. this is what turns our concoction into cheese as it restructures the case in it, a protein that can only be found in animals melt. and yes, it really works, our milk is suddenly solid just for me to cut it into pieces again. and so neil realised that 200 leaders of more can quite screw. now we have to work

quickly. the current needs to go into these molds while it's still warm and be flipped after a couple of minutes. after another 2 or 3 hours, all of these molds go into the ripening room, a cheese make his treasure chamber. the processing accounts for between 2 to 18 percent of cheeses, final c o 2 emissions. of course, the longer you need to keep it at a certain temperature and humidity for it to become really tasty. the more energy it uses, new day, another cheese maker. but today we are producing the vague, in our tentative and here cash use are the main ingredient. yes, that's the wonderful thing about cash. yes, we can make a nice mill from them if we soak them, clean them and crush them. yet this produces a smooth milk that can be processed into cheese alternatives. the way animal milk would be for normal cheese production up either. for ob, i did that in con. and after i've ground down, all these cashews bacteria cultures will be added to stop the fermentation process,

just like you would when making cheese from animal milk. they're all thought of ingredient forces alternative. su now man, oh boy, and even olive oil and even on the radius abundance of the progressive to calculate the greenhouse gas emissions. water and las vegas alternative vegan cheeses are fairly new. so there aren't a lot of studies on there and via mental impact yet, which is why we can only compare what it takes to grow the most popular ingredients, cashews almonds and the new kid on the block. oh, it's the dutch national institute for public health and the environment. compare different environmental impacts. other studies claim different impacts, but for easy comparison, i'm sticking to this one. making cheese emits way more c o 2 than vague and alternatives. one is the bacteria have started their work during the fermentation

process. the herbs and spices are added to this version is what the company called chuck calico to become as delicious as possible. it goes through a similar ripening process as real cheese, where the bacteria continue their work. looking at the science though, it takes quite a lot of water to ro cashews. the dutch study found water consumption to be as high as 2000 liters per kilogram of cash use. but it's not just the number that's important. the impact depends a lot on the region where the cash use are ground. does it rain a lot or is it a waters cast region, for example, in vietnam, caches are mainly grown in areas with relatively little water stress. but the opposite is generally true for brazil or bulky now fossil. alrighty. and now i'm really curious how that is going to taste.

oh yeah, it has years mail and tastes a lot of herbs. the consistency is actually pretty similar to like cream cheese. what with her pin star as really read. all right, all right. all right. that was pretty good even for cheese love a, but if you want to go full out on saving the planet, go for owed based options, but they are just starting to hit the supermarket shelves. now, real cheese will always be my number one, but i'll try to switch it up with some tasty alternatives. so if we can get me on dairy, what can me eat to save the climate? and in short, food security bugs may be the answer by any, as all over the world are developing sustainable products, made out of the larvae of black soldier flies in germany,

it seems there's just one sticking point standing in the way of its success. the red tape of bureaucracy. it could be so easy. breeding harmless little flies to lay eggs which turn into maggots with a voracious appetite for food waste. and the larvae can be turned into tasty. high protein burger is good for the climate and the environment. though it's not quite that straightforward yet. but 1st things 1st. welcome to the lum shack of the black soldier, fly a creature by the name media in lupin's heinrich cuts is a superstar among fly farmers. he'd love to expand his farm and be part of the insect protein revolution. and the larvae are up to the job. they have a racial appetite and gobble up everything from food waste to animal excrement. and true glutton fashion. their body weight increases 6000 fold in just 3 weeks. the

problem is, you regulations forbid the farmer from feeding them food waste. when were last snow? yes, mark. if you're a pioneer doing something new or you're going to really enjoy what you're doing and be enthusiastic about it. but often you do bumping the challenges in a lot, especially in the case of disruptive innovation, as you might find yourself facing regulatory hurdles. avi trends and the e. u is concerned about the sanitary conditions of the larvae which live in their own feed and feces. in 6 live in their feet, they live in their own feet. so you have to make sure that there is no risk of contamination between the feet which day if and the insect protein, which is the final product and which will be consumes. this is why they're currently fed on pink feed because they will dish this up here is kara, which is great for our young larvae. acora is

a byproduct of tow for production for yesterday. and this is melissa. but there are more efficient solutions available, like in kenya, where highly con says also set up a fly farm. with indoor plumbing, a rarity in many poorer districts. a startup has set a portable lavatories in selected places. the excrement is later collected and mixed with food way, a blend that's perfectly suited to the black saunter. fly larvae he lost and found on july. the larvae are then fed to pigs and chickens aloft. if we've had the system up and running for a couple of years now with 0 problems, and no cases of animals getting sick, i didn't even office show them despite its concerns the use as it wants to promote larvae farming, which could be a sustainable source of protein and a meat substitute. nearly 100 percent of the maggots can be consumed, either by livestock or humans. there is far less waste than when pigs chickens or

cows are on the dinner plate. plus the maggots shelf can be used as a fertilizer or for making cosmetic products and even medications. you know that you've been has a doctor action plan for a circular column, and we have adopted the for the farm to for strategy where we want to develop resilient and sustainable food supply chains. and one of the things which are being assessed there is whether you feed substrates for insects are focused on former food stamps. could be considered as a source, a future. before waste can be used this way. the e once proof that as a safe product. as his own sklar that we know that we need to deliver empirical evidence that it safely hunger synthesis wookey feel. but the e u is basically making that impossible because they won't grant us an exemption

nomic naming off your greek. so we're being asked to provide evidence while being denied the means to do so. it was the community guys gave. we can only hope that will be granted exemptions at the local level. and that the you doesn't put a spanner in the works you hoping to just on course patricia college. for now, i know chances ground fly larvae can only be fair to long and fish, but it all goes well. larvae could be the next big thing in the food industry. food has cultural, religious and societally are plastered on it, and it may not be possible for all of us to make the switch to sustainable alternatives immediately. but the solution to every problem starts with an acknowledgement and acknowledgement from each one of us that the way we produce food to be is broken. change begins, he'll think about that and i'll see you again next week, goodbye. and thanks for watching, ah,
