really possible to pay for a demo site bay the reputation and need to look at it in the business. look forward to what the future holds for all of the 77 percent. 60 minutes on d, w. these places in europe are smashing all the records, stepped into a bold adventure. it's the treasure map for modern globetrotters. discover some of you up to record breaking sites on your back, youtube and now also in book form. oh, germans drink over 133000000 cups of tea every day. and they're often more discerning than they used to be because they want to know if they're really holding a good cup in their hands. people actually making the feed in the factories,

they don't almost get anything tea drinkers ever more exacting demands are pushing producers to get more creative. we always take a step further and ask that that available in germany too. and many companies show how climate protection and production can go hand in hand. that could also reduce might the production cost by 15 percent and more and more tea drinkers want to have a positive impact with . ringback oil, i will be surprised if they make 7 a 6 or 7 kilos per they think they want to go to the other pro later a aah!

in western georgia, christina may hick from estonia and thomas cats, leon us from lithuania, r reinventing te, production and getting a fresh start themselves. for years ago, they tried their hand at farming for the very 1st time and began a new life 3000 kilometers from home. well, if you want to take only highest quality leaves, you have to do it by hand. oh sir, old, it would be impossible to cut it, sir. mechanical yonder this to leaves under but level if, if it goes mechanical, it takes everything, those hard and all leaps as well. and as dounia, christina may have used to work as a marketing expert for a bus company, but now she heads a t plantation. is the best way to be in a connection with the nature actually. so you can actually you see them growing

like girl, like in the spring when they actually start to like the 1st more ones start to start to grow. it's really like her memorizing feeling and te has a long tradition in georgia in soviet times. 90 percent of the t for the gigantic multi ethnic state was produced here using machinery and pesticides. but the t production at the foot of the caucasus mountains ended up collapsing along with the soviet union 30 years ago. and the once flourishing business gave way to poverty. a few years ago, christina remembered the georgian t. she used to always drink with her parents. and then she wondered why no one drank it any more. and miss arthur is like, what's up until the 17 georgia, and they understood that it's has collapsed completely bloody. so this kind of late for me and sparked this idea. so it's good for an interesting good. and we

contacted the people here, of course, didn't believe us 1st. so like historians went to brody. oh like that doesn't sound like very like logical or real. but when we got to them, they were like, ok peer. serious along with a few friends, christina, may hick and thomas cats, leon has decided to take the plunge, quit their jobs and start new lives. look, i was quite successful in corporate business. i didn't have a feeling that they, i'm actually creating something sec, so tables, those meetings, present point presentation sentence and so on and so on. but i didn't have a feeling that actually make something that woods well left a footprint in this world. and when i heard about this idea, i saw po, this is it's, it's either now or never here at the border of asia,

the damp sub tropical climate and acidic soil are ideal for teeth. but also for weeks it took months to clear the old feels. they finally read this field of ferns just 3 weeks ago. i think we never actually thought about it like people kept telling us like, are you stupid like, put something on it like or like go think there was even like a joke. like some person like said the look like a burger, like just put something. no one will know who then. yeah that's, that's how it goes. so. so it's like in our, in our minds at the 1st like member an option. and they're part of a real trend in germany. the amount of black and green tea farmed organically rose by about one percent to 12.9 percent in 2020. while fruit and herbal teas increased by 2.5 percent to 13.5 percent. msi a kid, so she really and the other tea pickers are benefiting from the new organic t idea. they worked on plantations as young women and their back at it again decade

later, 34, and 3 or a little bit of their child. so beth, the 69 year old works 6 days a week, making about 20 years, a shift, dollar amount of money i said to watch. yeah, i really like the setup is jonetta mac. i'm retired, but i can't make ends meet with my pension eyes. so that's why i'm out here until project autrand, and i'm really thankful you guys did it by. i'm very happy to do it because this job gives me enough money to buy bread and i can feed my family, mark more shocked. commercial my child. i'm with the young plantation owners had to get creative to figure out how to pay the t pickers fair wages. tea may be in, but it shouldn't give consumers

a bad conscience. and that's why the berliner is on moore ho when buck and lay on franken launched their start up karma, collective its mission is to help customers make a difference. and best of hello people ideally or to see their wallets as a sort of ballard paper. yeah, it lets them proclaim, i choose to support this so that company understood so, and that includes stops amy to achieve new positive things at 1st. and i think that's what sets them apart. has dropped us as canada until she to the young entrepreneurs plan to expand their range of products. their idea is to market very regional natural cheese in returnable bottles of developed. plenty of, i'm often told things more work than it was and that's what so appealing. so new trying things that aren't supposed to work about like making bottle drinks on its own. people always say no way without sugar and preservative. substitute on that, but it can work in our approach is to include regional ingredients, yields to i'm bought brandenburg is close by 4 berliners. and the german capital is

full of organic food enthusiasts. so that's why i one more whole got in touch with yog usta who's cultivating 40 heck, tears of fennel. and that's just one of the flavors of our own models, new t's depending on what the weather allows. you can keep harvesting it for 3 or 4 years in a row, and it tastes good question. on one of them, he's nearing his goal of producing tea regionally. government of the situation. of course, it's really an almost emotional experience. because i know at some point my things will be running like clockwork. bonham did not so nice. so my chin, ah, his positivity is contagious. ah, the i've done better. he often caught in between we farmers working here at this hobby farm are actually pretty cut off from the final processing step of our

products on for the difference toilet. does it? no, i think it's great how this new company is tackling organic products and trying to sell them regional legal life, mach lester. that makes them a good partner. we're really happy to collaborate with. feelings. doesn't vomit in we had mucus gallops is on low. i know they only harvest the seeds of the funnel, it takes them 2 days to dry, and then they're ready for herbal tea. with some of some things, it looks different from the egyptian varieties last and it looks great in glass and he's planning to pick up 200 kilos of fennel seeds to day them on. on this one isn't him. if you're new to the business, you 1st check where you could get fennel elsis and that was through a vendor in egypt. then we approached the farm and they started supplying us in las vegas, but they were still ultimately located in asia and clayton. and then i thought it's all okay, but it will also grow here and brand number one,

walk. and ever since then we've had brandenburg fennel here font melissa offensive owns they're still working out the final new t recipe. but wondering, producer nearby has committed to their experiment and they've had their share of failed attempts. so they have to stay focused on the kinetic off. of course, things can go wrong last month and we won't know until we tasting it from us. so there's always some tension on going to and it's about to get hectic and hector, because everything has to be just right still, including the brewing timed in seats on puzzles besides fennel, the t mixture includes hibiscus, spearmint, my take, blackberry leaves and nothing else. where juicing machines used to make organic juices. there are now t strainers. what an intense smell? my goodness, i viscous. i'm facing, a pastor rises his juices at 80 degrees celsius, but that's too low for

t. it needs higher temperatures to release its substances. for amazon, or if you don't have a makeshift take it like this in front of you every day. and the process is a different. you 1st have to learn and get a feeling for how everything works and how they learn their lessons from their failed attempts. so far, all internal looks good. hopefully it tastes good to the bottle. t is supposed to be launched in stores as soon as possible for one euro, 79 or 2 years. it's slightly a city from so that house make it really refreshing. i will go on to farm. the color is great. i think we can be satisfied. good job. the contents of the t strainer, used at the juice, producer end up in the compost bin to make fertilizer for the next plants and the next experiment. and there will be a next 1. 1 of the world's best known

t cultivation regions is awesome. india, but are some has a terrible image. it's name is tarnished by starvation wages and over exploitation of nature. but there's more to the place than that ketone patel is the 3rd generation owner of the drilling that he estate. he produces $800.00 tons of tea a year. his organic t plantation is the biggest of its kind in india for me, or it has been a very exciting journey um, because of my overseas exposure with various travelers, exhibition participation in action with customers as well. and sustainability certifications. i've always been motivated and always taken learn learnings from

those and come back and implemented that in geneva. india is 2nd only to china in te cultivation and the country's potential is enormous. and plantation owner ketone patel doesn't intend to rest on his laurels. his ambitious plan is to make the plantation c o 2 neutral the number one climate killer is the black. coal traditionally used to dry the tea leaves and then there are the harvest remains. that release climate damaging methane when rotting regarding the car bama that we collect. we felt obviously that this could be used for a benefit to create energy, whether it's pellets, whether it's composting good for a soil fertility. they produce a ton of pallets a day enough to substitute most of their black coal, and they soon plan to replace it completely which could help lower annual c o. 2

emissions by 2300 tons. i think and fi the output is slow. about what has to be much faster organic energy instead of waste. that's just one of the many ideas ketone patel is implementing to make his delingo t a state more climate friendly. the reason is one is like the green alternative. it is in wyman friendly, but the 2nd also is that it will also reduce might be production cost by 15 percent . so basically it's a win win for the industry as well as the environment and to protect the environment even more he aims to produce his t gardens, c o, 2 emissions by another $1000.00 tons a year. t picker, shank, harry koala lives on the plantation with her family. and she's been cooking over an open fire so far, but that's bad for the climate and the people. so the plantation owner is getting

1500 families, a little gift with a big impact. you're lucky to le ricka. luckily, this is for you to cook with the book. the sufficient would oven doesn't smolder, and it's good for your health. one offices politely with climate protection starts small and every little bit helps i despite having to learn a new language and writing system, christina may hick quickly felt at home in georgia. i mean the estonian has new ideas while mizzi akin. so rush villi has old stories from back when georgia was still part of the soviet union

entering daily, changed ref i only, she was very important back then i get that the smell. so good luck on that. her is chase. she was exported abroad a chinese sugar. we got bonuses and had great working condition. if you have several of did working on the key plantations, you were financially secure. i said, oh, i'm actually about to chase blended. it was a happy time for ms. dia kinslow, she really that was over 30 years ago. i shall not affiliation with somebody else, will not recognize when the soviet union broke apart. we had no more in common chemistry. it's i with the plantations became while i was downtown, and because we weren't earning enough anymore, my son went abroad, guides of the day me see, we've only managed to make ends meet for his financial support to a toilet a somewhat, whatever the t producer pays above average wages during the 5 month

harvest season. and that enables employees to make a living for the rest of the year. one of the been so far in the 1st year they harvested 10 kilos. and now in year for the expect 2 tons, 100 tharpe who from estonia has tough work days. but he says it would be too harmful to the environment to use machines to dry the leaves. the fact that is the result. so like those machines like ready to put like a lot of these on things like force like air of installation and, and also be sometimes heat. so for example, run me base for us like, well, we performed whether maybe 15 all were to strengthen all worse than in those big factories. it takes maybe 2 hours, 3 hours and the leaf is ready to go. green black and white t r made from the same plant, camelia finances, they're just processed differently. and the staff to everything themselves here from drying and rolling the leaves to packing and shipping the finished tea. that

way. the money stays at the farm. i comes in the beginning of their prices start at 6 euros for 50 grams of t. ethical production comes at a cost when we started to look into the industry and, and how it works. but for farmers almost don't get anything, the people actually making the theme in the factories, they don't almost get anything. and, and it just turns her off. because like if you like this mass market for these, they are sold in the global market, maybe $3.00 a key lot for dollars, a killer. only blocking cost for us like that. those ladies were harvesting the leaves, awe about 86 percent of the sales price in germany goes to the supermarkets and t production companies. while workers in the indian state of awesome, for instance, receive just 1.4 percent according to an oxfam study. the owners of the plantation

in georgia wanted to avoid such conditions in their own business. that's why they thought up their own special business model. here in awesome plantation owner keaton patel distributed 4000 of the new climate friendly wood ovens and the families of the tea pickers are trying them out. will they become well established like the ingenious plantation owner hopes that she did? he of gold cannon buck on his sister, you like cooking with this stove. roger obviously went, forgot the owner. nana, this stuff is better than the old one. it takes less wood to cook and cooks foster . we need 4 kilos of wood for this one. and we used to ne, 10, how can it at any level and that lowers c o 2 emissions. and even for the chart would left over the plantation owner has an idea the families

can sell it to the plantation. and then the charcoal can be used to dry out the tea leaves, instead of the climate damaging black coal with $25.00 kilos times $400.00. that makes 100 rupees 8. you had 4 air con artist new stove helps us in some money by selling the left over coals to the t. planned to ashley pack ran through our mission, nevada, and my family benefits from the additional income body. that bush me, little paragraph g. 10. patel's ingenuity to lower c o 2 emissions knows no limits. the plantation is already preparing for its next project, sponsored by german climate organization. atmospheric for different compost mixtures are being enriched with environmental bio coal. so what mix makes the best fertilizer project manager so much data is hoping this effort

will boost to yields by up to 30 percent. will see the competition. how doc, soil is been developed in terms of what are rolling up as it is highly policy b and the ph window of the site. and when compared with that, each and every block is old with our 4 blocks, which is which one is giving up as better as i'm there ambitious goal is to only consume what the farm produces itself and for plantation owner ketone patel. it's a question of survival. that's the only way you can do organic in a competitive way and having a long term perspective in terms of climate and, and bombing. there are thousands of t plantations in india, but climate visionaries like he 10 patel still have a lot of convincing to do

ah. in their adopted home of georgia, the baltic t farmers have thought up an unusual business model. they sell plots of their land online, and there are already $169.00 virtual buyers from $21.00 countries. the demand is so enormous that they constantly have to clear new parts of their soviet era plantation. when i see people are basically buying car part of our plantation, like a small plots and her full they do not become owner of the spot. but if they get her half of the tea, which is produced from that block for 25 years. so we feel, for example, produce like 20 kilos of tease them. the owner of the spot gets sir dan kilo's

of tea. at the end of the season, li, encourage customer loyalty by adding personalized name signs in the middle of georgia. christina may hick and the others name their farm renegade to emphasize their alternative ways to help the people with their own feel bushes sir, feel kind of part of it. them sir. and the field closer to nature, and they actually get this really personal experience that they know who their own to. farmers are fill it be neck from germany, works for a humanitarian foundation in courtesy. and he gave his parents their own t bush. now he's taking a look at it. okay, i think i thought it costs 75 euros to sponsor a bush and an exchange. he receives 3 different packages of tea

a year so people can donate to support a great idea and promote a kinder economy. it's an investment, our country has had dollar mark nazarene via we could all pitch into some extent and help food and drink businesses. take a look outside the city a bit. right. and there are many options in germany and internationally. him, so be a lot to better understand the work behind it. oil and how it's about more than just a tea bag. i love an inch mazda, if you drink it fast, and then throw it away fast. but when you see how it comes from italy's and all the work that goes into it and who did it, you may be, enjoy it more and be less weight than others. these idealistic visions have many supporters because the renegade farm gives them a look behind the scenes of the t. and they can see just how hard it is to compete with low cost t brands. ah, this makes also sure that the connection if they are workers normally because really go kick out the middleman basically who,

who are you shouldn't take the the money. so i hope that this kind of a system not only in t, but then ford in general, would go either. so people, of course, the products are more expensive than but the, i hope that the, in general people with maybe consume less, let's consume, like more high quality and sustainable for a lot. you can do for a good cup of tea. ah ah ah ah, ah, ah, ah ah, with

you in may of 21, both the german and american governments finally struck

a deal on what to do about atrocities committed in this country by the former colonial power. the question be asked to do is, is it really possible to pay for a general i spade, the reputation in you to look at it in the dizzy look forward to what the future holds for all of the 77 percent can 30 minutes on d. w. o, a live and demand comcast and language courses with video and audio. any time, anywhere. the d. w media center the resurrection of jesus christ. is obama go bavaria,
