in the standings lead this is dw news live from berlin coming up after the break. shift living in the digital age looks at how green architecture can make a huge dent in c o 2 emissions unexpired. thanks for watching. enjoying the view and come to take a look at this tv highlights every week in your inbox. subscribe now several dead and wide wing extremist. this writes regression again, world movie and couple weight and burned in south africa with disabilities. more likely to lose their jobs in the pandemic black lives matter. shine a spotlight on racially motivated police violence, same sex marriage is being legalized in more and more countries. discrimination and inequality are part of everyday life. for many, we ask why?

because life is diversity. to make up your own mind d. w. made for mines ah, shifts special saving energy and buildings with smart technology and smart ideas, buildings and it's a large share of the world's energy related greenhouse gas emissions, to reducing their energy demand is an important part of tackling climate change. we took a look at a housing project in indonesia and one in the netherlands taking 2 different approaches to achieve this goal. this isn't just any old building. this is one of the new sustainable buildings in the world. the edge olympic in the dutch capitol

amsterdam. to it's smart technologies, the workspace is energy consumption has been drastically reduced. this window by dutch start up fee even produces energy, very smart window solution, which is making use of reflecting light through the window through foil to then actually put solar panels in the frame on the sides. this window and the sunny day has enough energy for me to be able to charge my phone on this little connection that much right here. sounds gritty works in the building for the real estate developer edge. she explained that every user here can contribute to saving energy by adjusting their workspace to any one of the features that we have in an application for every use in the buildings to change light and temperature settings . as a default in this building, we have the temperature, the light a little bit didn't because you don't always need maxim lights. that also saves a lot of energy and then we allow individuals to increase or decrease the light as

they want. so here on my application, i can press light but, and then for example, put the light up to maximum possibility or even, you know, totally dim off if i'm doing a presentation. so also on temperature, i can also say, hey, i'm now connect to this room, and then in this space i can make it 2 degrees warmer or 2 degrees cooler, depending on what my preferences would be. energy clinician from the same time w, r i t s technology that can be adjusted to the environment is important. instead of designing lighting levels and comfort levels for the worst possible case. by adding flexibility and giving people the ability to adjust their environment, it safe, significant amounts of energy. so technology is a key enabler. and this is truly a scalable technology, not just in the global north and in modern major cities. but this technology can be brought anywhere in the world. edge lynn takes collects is variety of data to gain

an understanding of where energy is consumed and where it is wasted. basically is created as an i o t enable building. so i would use the internet of things. we have thousands and thousands of sensors in this building, which measure everything from and temperature, a quality presence where people in the building. and then we all put that together to what we call ip backbone. it's basically the spine which goes to the building and connect all this data into one point and then brings that into the cloud. some of the senses are integrated into ceilings. the data is collected in a cloud and visualized on huge screen. but understanding what's actually going on in and around the building, we are able to make sure that the building is using a minimum amount of energy that is needed when it is needed. and not too much when we could actually say, for instance, it helps people find a free workspace that suit the needs, such as with the right temperature and good ventilation data collected in the building is continuously analyzed to gain more knowledge on the actual use of the

space, a lot of energy is being wasted while nobody's using it. so basically what we're trying to say that the building should adapt to the use the building should understand. when are people in the building, when it's cold and warm outside? is it really a warm summer or cold summer and not just a scheduled one? actually take a look panels on the roof to produce its own energy. thanks to its energy saving measures. it uses 3 times less energy than comparable office building different floor. i was counted on the rooftop to reduce the heat, flux through the roof. inside the green bio finnic workspaces provide a healthy climate and actually pick was built with sustainable and re purpose materials and with many such aspects. further method to save greenhouse gas emissions just kind of to expose clean if there's a lot of greenhouse gas emissions in the materials of construction. cement steel

glass are very energy intensive, the manufacturer and typically used fossil fuels in their manufacture and steel. and some men also produce greenhouse gas emissions through the process of creating them. the material used in this building could be recycled and up, cycled in the future. if the building is dismantled, at some point, we can easily find all the information of what could be reused and where could it be resold? so that material gets a new life phones or a gritty edge wants to inspire people to live sustainably. all the plans, you see the atria, you see the, the facade which has been reuse of the floor on the ground floor. there's so many elements in there where we try to basically make people aware of it and make it a conscious mindset on sustainability with the food and beverage and everything which is happening around here. that you almost cannot help yourself, but live

a sustainable life when you're in this building. could a building like this also be built in asia, africa, or latin america? every single claim its own has its own way of doing things. what we do see is that digital know how censoring understanding, what's happening in the buildings is probably the most universally applicable thing that you can do across the entire globe. because it's independent of how your building is built. the state i can help you to optimize its operations for companies such as edge cutting edge smart take is the foundation for saving energy . but there are other alternative approaches. i think we have a lot to learn from other parts of the world which are taking other approaches. and in particular i, i have been very interested to see the development of 0 carbon buildings in blood global south which use passive measures such as pools preschool, clues to indonesia, capital jakarta. despite the tropical climate,

the school has no air conditioning. as this, with the yellow one, quantum cnr senior conditioning actually consumes a loss of energy and buildings such as schools and other public buildings is scarlet and bone and public lane. yes. so the challenge is how wells are mccree good ventilation and good lighting? friendly lassie? young, her bike than been around, i'm young, pay this strategies called passive design. it uses natural light, heat, and air movement to reduce the need to light, warm, or cool, the building using artificial power, hungry methods. natural climate control can save lots of energy, something the building sector is in dire need of says e one, pre john to chairperson of indonesia green building council and just got one in our one your the carbon dioxide gas from the building sector contributes to 39 percent of all the carbon dioxide gas in the world. wonderfully, that is

a little bit earlier at the yeah, which means is the largest sector responsible for global warm at the am which leads to climate change and gallop us process by madison global. and it will become worse in the future, and under that, i'm going to knock on mocking. i can walk in, but we can, we are not in. so it's not just agriculture, the clothes, industry, and transport that significantly home our climate. but how can buildings be designed to save energy? for architect adeep will know lou cross ventilation plays a crucial role. he studied the existing environmental conditions such as the direction of the wind and to plan the buildings, alignment and wind openings accordingly. there in the new de la mancha mumble the point to loosen a try to read the paths of the sun hung in poland and the paths of the wilson fellow, which are always eastward and westward by that to the orient. as the class glossy

naggie. as these classroom sita are eventually aligned, going east to west go, but my, my son or one up to that in the school designs in the law, they don't door remarked at the when windows are open, it'll get his passat. it that he gets a little hon. unsung anemia. fans with low wattage are used only when there is no wind at po a preschool. the pants on the walls also help keep the building crew. in addition, grass grows on the rooftop to cool the classrooms underneath. each of these measures makes a difference of $1.00 to $2.00 degrees celsius. when it comes to light. the roof has been designed to let natural light in to receive the reta is posed preschools, project director. her vision is that students learn to adapt to their natural climate. instead of being in air condition, surroundings all the time. or actually iowa, the initial reaction was that some were very strongly opposed to this school,

especially to it not using air conditioning. some said that that child would constantly sweat and prestige also played a role. they said my child has always been an air conditioning from when it was born in the hospital to leaving the hospital to going home. and now it's going to school without ac blowing up, a gas it that after a couple of months, the parents attitude changed it in my calendar. again. they started to realize that their child really benefited from the positive side of choosing air conditioning, like rarely getting c a when it comes to air conditioning, changing people's minds. it is an important aspect, says entity expert tobac tobacco energy efficiency is not only that movie, but it's also the behavioral behavior issue. for example, you know, not the not using light in the place. we need the not,

the air conditioning got hallways or the on the places where we don't need it. so, you know, making yeah, this air conditioning unit should hold up people but, but good. but not the plaintiff layer of the world. resources institute sees the whole preschool model for the future. that is a great project. it includes many of the elements of the best in passive design. so they've done everything necessary to eliminate the need for air conditioning. plus, you know, that building is going to be very, very healthy because of all the fresh air going through. i think that is the future, or at least a key element of the future. combining those passive elements with smart technologies . we're on site renewable energy. allows us to achieve what we been looking for, which is 0 carbs built out in 0 carbon buildings. the amount of energy used

per year is equal to the amount of renewable energy produced on site or off site for the buildings energy to move at yahoo, a preschool. the plan to cut energy consumption is working. polar need 50 percent less energy per square meter than an average indonesian school. did. he said patrol yet? i think the project demonstrates that a green building. it doesn't have to be an expensive building to. i decide to buy one onion monday. my, as you can see here, to see me, the design can be a very simple in the end, the solid solid set that hannah, whether it's too clever design or smart technology, these buildings are doing their bit to tackle climate change. ah, ah,

vision of fully autonomous driving is closer to be realized thanks to a new technology by mercedes benz. the drive pilot is now an option for the new s class in the completely electric e q, and it's designed to take the pressure off of the driver as especially in traffic jams. oh, he took it for his been rev. next auntie w. a climate event. what could the future bring in 45 minutes on w o. d in for life and on demand

on gas in language courses video and audio any time anywhere the d, w media center. so right now i don't have to do anything. i'm just here as the, let's call me safety driver who's we are living during the most extraordinary time in history of transport. we'll go pull the electric with read the audio mobility show lou.
