single use plastic per my call of. and then there is some portion of it which is bed boxes. it's g, b, l, d, b. some of both standards clippers, sometimes weird stuff like in a chronically be found tv, the tv sets in judgment as well. so actually what has become so far looted with garbage, that it is now called the a c. now law, or se drain, it is estimated that nearly $215.00 tons of plastic raised equivalent to the rate of $79.00 elephants and up in that were ganges each day. plastic waves dumbed into the ganges and it's many smaller debris. damages that he was marine ecosystem and the health of millions of people who live along this 2500 kilometer length. but the damage is not limited to 30 but itself. now on in micro plastics are generated because of the rig donald, the plastic that we use. so for example, if you throw up on it in back or use or plastic bucket even to break down into
12:35 pm
smaller box. and, you know, kind of, if you look at the, got into, you know, kind of the soldiers of happened much plastic has been found in air. what those mean? human bodies in a vegetable plastic fisher says that it's trash rooms collect between 200 to 300 kilograms of plastic from the to reverse. invite honestly, each date the company's trying to address the bloom of plastic dumping it began. distribute trees. these tend to be much natalie than the main river, which make strapping waste easier. the littering issue. i mean there has been constant effort from the government and from us as well. we do every sunday, we are doing this in a drive on the banks of variable ganga. about 100 people participate. the event is raising campaign does more than pete about pollution. while india speak trash from
12:36 pm
the bank of the ganges, which will help them understand the extent of the problem and cleans up that bank actually has worked for the german firm for 9 months. doing so has helped change his views on his own household. i have change and i keep a garbage can at home. i sweep up my trash and throw it into the garbage and only give it to the garbage collectors will come to our home and validate the garbage collectors thought and be in the trash, then ship it all through the recycling partner for cardinal recovery. plastic fisher says that since it's dark in 2021, it has collected $47.00 tons of plastic leased from bought on a c, all of which would otherwise have ended up in the ganges. such small scale solutions can prove crucial for me to getting the growing presence of micro plastics. and again, just beasen, as well as the oceans. while you might think of green energy scalable,

12:38 pm
the glass fibers bonded with residence, which gum up the kiln and the ash and i so quite apart from the environment. loomis ankle and it's just not an ideal solution. 0 you lose old. and recycling is only just getting off the ground. it's only recently that wind turbine manufacturers have had the wind to waste problem on their radar. that often leads to situations like this on this green field decommissioned turbine lane or dismantled for the scrapyard. one company near the polish city of rod suave has come up with a solution unmet takes own turbine blades from germany and turns them into furniture. the plains of 12 meters long are 1st thought intersections, sanded and painted. they get a new life is outdoor furniture, chairs, benches,
12:39 pm
and tables. accented with top quality march would all students from the university of shalana guna, come up with the designs. they're thrilled that their products are being bombed by customers around the world. of course we can use it inside, but i think outside is am, is by the right to to use this material. because it's water proof is damaged grove, a foot bridge, another of unmet novel recycling ideas. the rotor blades were transformed into the support for a pedestrian bridge. it's the brain child of engineer on j. r. done show. for him, old blades are not hazardous waste, but a resource spout. shamiqua news me ions go to the for example, we don't try to change the shape of the rotor of year. we turn it into

12:41 pm
repurposing. why? the new generation of wind turbines are bigger and more powerful. modern turbines are temples of high tech filled to the brim with electronic components. and they promised to help solve the wind to waste problem. in 30 or 40 years, when these turbines go offline, they'll be more easily recycled into valuable raw materials. alanon ha, yesterday about the all big manufacturers are working on producing their components and so that they'll be easier to recycle. meaning in a way that's environmentally sustainable energy saving and cost saving energy intensive costs. 100 percent recyclable turbine blades are the wave of the future. germany, for example, plants to install $1500.00 new wind turbines a year. in a few decades, their aging blades will be mined for valuable raw materials,

12:47 pm
revitalization has filled the gap. it goes directly to citizens tanny's municipal commission of a bon chapman believes that public private partnerships can help the city to do so it's trash. i think in put his progress he would laws on what enabling them more in enforcing. so it's always citizens participation which makes a loss accessible on unsuccessful summit that'd be us. beat also regularly holds bookshops for school children in tani southern estimates about $60000.00 children have attended workshops at his integrated waste management project. i think our uniqueness it. but what's unique about our approach is that we go directly to the people and tell them that this is our collective responsibility, which we have to take care of done if they think of the environment as theirs. while things can change, it's almost me. but if, if that's our law of southern smoke has gone out interest from neighboring cities
12:48 pm
like the industrial down of be monday, his team is already at work. setting up the new plunked. the city has provided special trucks to help, but the pick up process, the mondays residence still have to learn to segregate least at home. and then little by little southern stacks of sort of dry beast ready for recycling. with steady, negro it's not just about what we do with what we truly education and awareness raising are important in combating the world's waste problem. in qana office, i using garbage itself to get the message out. typically, with for 10 years now, musician david hubbard, c. wilson goes by the name took me gonna, has been trying to mobilize people to clean up a crowd, get picking kitley. i

12:52 pm
no grew up not to really understand and loved environment. absolutely, bunton sometimes takes the students on field trips to day, they're paying a visit to his gallery, where he presents his own works. some of them have suit very well now. yes, david chromarty and contrast can't make a living just from his music meeting, but he has made a difference in thanks to him and other volunteers across beaches are a little bit cleaner now. oh god, god, no, no, no, no, no, but didn't do it about me not now there was no good with from art profession, one of the world's most polluting industries. it's estimated to be responsible for around 20 percent of global clean water pollution. but by recycling and finding innovative new materials, next ties can also become more sustainable. let's take
