asked her see, says on the potato ram to read a, not the turn on. well, it gets more ridiculous from there. you don't you literature list 100 german most recent. mm hm. what secrets lie behind these walls? discover new adventures in 360 degrees. and explore fascinating world heritage sites. d w world heritage 360. get it now. oh. oh. a round the one. the races on to transition from fossil fuels to clean energy. in the process, even small steps,
7:31 am
when help us reach the finish line on this edition of a coin get, we discover how smart ideas can keep us on track. hello, welcome. i'm son of that uncle. pink of agnes. yet. and chance is up. it's a gleaming white she device that comes to mind, but from the high out to the himalayas, the was bliss is ahmad by a black wind blown dust that contains foot from fires and fossil fuel consumption. in the state of hamilton, police efforts to club local emissions him to save the glazes that have a major water source and broadest attraction. ah ha. down this live via farmer, yogi harper, couldn't bring his apples to market an iron bridge that once connected his village of so long in the himalayas with the quill lumen. ali valley was recently swept
7:32 am
aveena landslide, after heavy rains. now the villagers may do with roadways and temporary wooden bridges worked a pretty bizarre dog and i would buy emergency gregory. we had to build a temporary bridge for emergency. we didn't have any other choice. elemy. this bridge is the only way we can transport an injured or sick child on an elderly person in an emergency room on columbia commission for akin juggle of job bridge going on over by the indian state of who my child. reddish is home to a number of big him, a land lease. yes. they melt water feeds into the regions 5 main rivers. the co, nominally valley lies 1800 meters above sea level. this year saw unprecedented heat waves. and in the month of july alone, more than pretty heavy rainstorms. the resulting floods led to landslides that killed 140 people. the extreme red there isn't only down to climate change. local
7:33 am
factors have also played at all. the volume of traffic has increased massively over the past 30 years. as hill stations draw increasing number of tourists local residence like yogi ta corsi, the landscape is changing before their eyes and we'll go rid of dracula. this year we went for a winter trek for friendship via cambridge, and we love the temperature was very unexpected in just a span of $2.00 to $3.00 days. quite fleming now, we witnessed a snow melting cycle. i was very surprised to see that at austin. there are a lot of fluctuations in temperature, mental, there's no balance any models. jo, balance the balance because he's not a regular wife. there is now less no fall and that is just rising. but other factors are also driving the lease. you melt scientists, the food from food fired power plant, forest wires, and diesel followed makers is making normal pasta. what problem is that?
7:34 am
it says that emitting black kaufman and the black card one gets deep all the data on the seasonal snow. i made a death suspended into that, marcia there, i've solved a lot of issues because they do them black in color. they have perfect. i saw sion property it and death saw the solid asian and in the protest they have the atmosphere. and the impact is huge. reports on the world bank shows the black carbon deposits could be responsible for more than 50 percent of the actually think leesha and snow melt in the region at the bus station in monopoly. that the hunter dodge issues a last call for passengers. his bus is about to leave. and it's not just any bus. the fully electric lea girl is one of 25 e bus is serving the monopoly valley hunter has been working here for years. he
7:35 am
too, has noticed changes in the mountains and therefore is 15 years ago there was a lot of snowfall between december in march. it was hard to spot land and i know him thinking he will have to take my kids on the bus to see the snowfall. david of the electric vehicles has quickly become popular among passengers. loosen the wrinkles costs and pollute more because of that local school. even with longer to travel in any buttons at the local transport corporations land to buy another $300.00 electric buses and by 2025. 15 percent off. its fleet is to be lecturing. but not all the buses can use the same charging point that limits their operating for a b, joseph somebody. some of the biggest challenge right now is that the bus from beckoned infrastructure is vehicle company specific?
7:36 am
what the kind of in shimla needs are different from color or dam sharla. jesse, until charging infrastructure is standardized by the government. this problem will continue 100. i use of setting up the vehicle. specific charging stations is a problem or myrtle ever been here with the good because the hage, nevertheless, electric lake us are definitely a step in that direction. scientists say the idea off you the electrical vehicle itself is a really useful thing. if we can't do an earth significantly can affect the black carbon emission into this region, an upgrade strength, it can control audit cut in half the livelihood, or in half d o d. do they bluetooth snorkel? electric lakers could certainly help reduce that damaging black salt emissions in
7:37 am
the region. but that when take dine, still, people are already benefiting from the new buses, which would use noise and quantity build the cleaner mountain air up in the himalayan. the southern italian city of naples is the notorious capital of clim little class known as the camera. one district left one decades has lived in the shadow of the mafia. gravity and unemployment has become the unlikely center of the cities transition to clean energy. it's a project that demonstrates the uplifting potential of going green residence called the brooks, the per district of san giovanni. i to do cio and the eastern suburbs of naples. the district is grouped by poverty on employment of the mafia. but it's here that natalie's energy revolution began thought paranoia thought it was good to start
7:38 am
from taylor because we want a socially fair energy transition that ought to be doing that. and we must fight climate change and social injustice together. when he gets back on in fear, and that's what we've done here for, shall acquainted a lot that it is a way yansa. italy's 1st energy community was created on the roof of this building . 166 solar panels produce electricity for 40 families. energy has become part of a social project here. the former orphanage of the familiar, the maria foundation, is a drop in center for families. a place where children can go to save them from exploitation by the camera, with our risks involved. 3 out the home up on this whole comes from a bullet fired in front of the entrance at the foundation, yet hit this wall with all a blatant sign of organized crime. one of the big problems here and the group is that they want to show that places like this or not wanted a cd because we educate the children to respect the laws. i know about timing any
7:39 am
are weapons or books or musical instruments, and even solar panels when the v for the attack. gennaro is 11 years old. he comes to the foundation every day and it's made him an environmental activist. children play an important role. they're the ones who persuaded the parents to participate in the energy project. crash her came on. we installed more solar panels here by and over there now. and also on this side shed with key. it makes me happy thought, because at least we're doing something for the climate. cham. i told my momma that it's good for the environment in death. and you also save money. i guess old pasquale cheery loan has been working for the foundation for 20 years. but for him, it's about much more than alternative energy. if you're cutting that out, i got seductive. we try to give these kids a chance that at that we tell them that, okay, this is a difficult neighborhood. there are many ugly things that she's on,
7:40 am
but there's also something beautiful or was i've been no it. we've had a place where you can do theater and music and she's all of it were. there are people who will listen to you and the ones who can help you when you have opportunities here. one more point for me, doc, whether it's for football, environment workshop or making music over a 100 kids come every day in all seasons that are on that can show us what you've got. yeah. wow. i thought he was able to go home, but we dying of getting a solid on it. we want the electricity project to show families that we care about in senior. the 1st energy community was not created in the city center, but here anybody in naples, east me, were the 1st to do it or plaintiffs. finally, the residents no longer see themselves as the last ones, the forgotten ones who always get the leftovers. not know, but this time we are the 1st time we'll get the money we're south isn't paying the north. the facility cost $100000.00 euros, financed by the canal,
7:41 am
sued foundation. the families are now entrepreneurs. we not only used electricity, but also sell it for several months now. the facility has been producing green electricity at the foot of a service antique with several more than that of daddy, this energy community represents a new path with this district at no, not yet. there are still many unsolved environmental and social problems, and the mafia is still present that happening, but this is fine and then a positive story. following their example, in the next few months, dozens of new energy communities are to be set up all over southern italy. well, rooftops are one place to store solar panels. but as the world strives to transition to an emerson's neutral future, the thought is on full space. to put all the for to water systems,
7:42 am
the future will require. so where exactly can we put our solar cells? our reporter explore the options we need less of this and more of this to stay below $1.00 degrees, but time is running out. solar still only accounts for 3.7 percent of worldwide energy production. we desperately need more. but where can we put the solar panels they need based on precious land land we need for towns, houses, and st. intact ecosystems and food. here we have a serious space issue. we're already using a lot of our soil to grow food. but what if we grew crops and generated energy at the same time? it's time for ag, we've all take the idea behind it. double the harvest. to do this,
7:43 am
modules are built in such a way that the soil beneath them can still be used for growing plants. what potential types are there? one is sola offensive. the space in between the fences can be used to grow crops for life stock or flour strips. or the modules could be built in a way that gives the panels enough space to rotate towards the sun. but how the plant fair growing under or near the panels. we've been growing lots of different kinds of perhaps things that you would see at your local farmers market. so tomatoes, peppers, squash, auburn, gene on all these different types of props have seemed to do really well. so the plant still get enough light, tomatoes, and chili peppers even doubled. they yield when shaded by solar panels. that's because if they get too much done, they get stressed and stock photo synthesizing,
7:44 am
which means they stop growing in a world that is getting hotter and hotter the modules ensure that less water is needed for irrigation. just think if you spilled your coffee or your water, your tea in the shade versus the fall sun, where will it stay? where longer? in the shade we are finding that every time we irrigate it would stay wet for 2 days instead of 2 hours. but yes, there are few, but not everything can be grown under the panels. crops like wheat or millet require full sun to grow wells. researchers are looking into which panels and set ups would be best for which crop. some plans need bigger gaps between the panels. corn and wheat would need taller ones, while shrubbery soybeans will be fine with a more squat variety. but the trend for the coming years is promising. according to a market analysis institute, the global market is anticipated to grow by almost 40 percent in the next 5 years
7:45 am
in dry regions, or those that rely heavily on agriculture like india, indonesia, and many african and south american countries. agri, well takes, could save a lot of land and water floating photovoltaics, or float of all take might just be the next big thing. the idea, solar panels are mounted on raft like structures which float on a body of water on the pimples, in coverage. but all there is awards which are available on the room, the neural group give about $23.00. however, what installed capacity, this is thomas finder. he evaluates the economic and technological feasibility of large scale floating p v system. with to put this into perspective and these $23.00 parallel group generators much electricity is the whole world of needs to be in a year. you can already see what that could look like at one of the biggest floating
7:46 am
solar farms in singapore. here the solar plan floats on the surface of a reservoir and produces enough energy to power about 16000 forum flats in the city state. the biggest floating farm in china even produces 5 times as much energy. the water also cools down the floating panels, making them more efficient. the panels and structures have to withstand wind waves and corrosion. so father, multiple studies have not found any severe impact on either water quality or ecosystems. experts expect flow to voltaic to expand by up to 30 percent annually over the next 5 years, with markets, mainly in asia. but europe, africa, and the us are starting to invest as well. so any other places left to put solar
7:47 am
panels up in space yet getting as close to the sun as possible. here the sun shines 24 hours a day and you need 0 land on earth. so why don't we put solar panels in the earth orbit? the you caleb space energy initiative with around 50 partners from industry, government and science is planning to install a solar power satellite in space by 2035 the us china and japan are also taking part in the solar space power quest. and this is, oh, it might work satellites in the us g, a stationary orbit, which is around 35000 kilometers from earth, collect solar energy using huge solar panels. they convert the energy into microwave radiation and beaming down to earth on the ground. a net of receiving antennas, or rec, tenors, collect the microwaves and convert them to electricity for the grid. each satellite
7:48 am
might produce 2 gigawatts of continuous power. as much as around $700.00 utility scale wind turbines, they'd be huge around 1.7 kilometers in diameter. and we'll wait several 1000 tons. the satellites would start to beam energy to earth 24 hours a day. the beam is considered to be harmless for animals and humans. it's about a quarter the strength of the midday sun. but energy is lost during the transmission and the conversion process. and the cost of getting the modules into space is well sky high. even if we manage to build in finance, solar power satellites in the next decades, we need more solar power to combat climate change now. and they are already far more realistic ways of generating solar energy quickly without losing urgently
7:49 am
needed land. and all of them are cheaper, faster, and much more promising. often, it takes a creative mind to think outside the box, or in the case of our next report, the solar cell. we met a dr designer who integrates full of technology into her work in a quest to lead to find that relationship with solar power and promote energy efficiency. for dutch designer marianna, fun elbow, the sun is her inspiration. so all started with this is something, it's a small and beautiful as this is harvest energy, solar cells take center stage and her designs like in these illuminated window decorations. so here i try to make, instead of like making sol invisible, that it really becomes like the future and it becomes an aesthetic addition to the
7:50 am
work that is, is a self powering artwork. these solar window panels look like stained glass. but they also have a function and their solar powered hanging lamp called santa is designed to mimic sunset. the sun is like this beautiful thing. we're like all know very well. and i mean, is this moment when you're on the, on the beach and you see the sun setting is magical moment? that's kind of like what i want to use in the lights. so when the sun goes down, a son that goes on, and that's like i have, everyone has his personal relations with his son, but it also like that it the fact that it's powering objects and his light is super, super fascinating. murray and fun album works out of this studio in amsterdam. she collaborates were scientists to create objects with a double function. they promote energy efficiency, such as this table, which is also a docking station. it captures daylight and it's you can
7:51 am
plug your phone or light or you can charge your device. this from this one of her bigger projects was for the dubai expo 2020. she created the colorful solar panels for the dutch pavilion. the solar roof provided power for the pavilion and also allowed in enough sunlight for the plant mario and design show how diverse solar panels can be. these are organic photovoltaics which is like, they're printed on pets and they don't use any like a very heavy metals which is about for environments. and they are completely circular. so their super light weights has kind of like a new generation of solar technology. marion has also come up with a solution for food production in a self powering greenhouse. it's currently on display in the netherlands at the
7:52 am
florida, yada holder culture exposure for creation enables the production of food in places where there's a lack of electricity for farming space. this is my creation of the future of farming and it's called power plants. and you basically can grow your food everywhere on your rooftop. so you don't have to fly in from the other side of the world, but you can really grow it within your own home. so it's uses vertical farming, and this is all powered by solar glass. even though she is a designer by trade, scientific developments are important to marian's work. solar shelf has so much since most dikes and their invention. and i think it's time that we start looking up in the sky where we got all the potential. instead of digging down into grounds, i mean, if you could live in balance with nature and use sources that are coming all the time and are in abundance, i think. yeah. then the worlds can be very beautiful place for my infant elbow,
7:53 am
the future of solar technology certainly looks bright. i love the sun, isn't the only thing in the sky that we can harness for energy. a german start up is using air. it says it's developed a synthetic fuel that makes use of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, and exciting prospect for our reporter who found out more why filling up at berlin petrol station. hey, have you heard about this? you can fill up with the greenhouse gas, see or to and use it to drive or fly or power to ship. crazy. fuel made out of thin air. no need to burn fossil fuels any more. using something that is c or 2 neutral? impossible. asked him. he makes this kind of soft. hey tim, how does it work?
7:54 am
you turning the combustion process on its head in a what we aim to do is take energy, water and c o 2 and turn them into synthetic fuel. so that closes the seo to cycle and we can create c o 2 neutral fuel austin. ok. it worked the other way around to really understand it. i think i have to go to a lab then please correct me if i'm wrong. you say you take water, it's 2 o an energy, lots of energy in the form of electric power. that electric power splits the water molecule into hydrogen and oxygen. no need for the oxygen. we only need the hydrogen. and here it comes. you combine the greenhouse gas t o 2 with hydrogen, and what's her good is fuel group fuel that recycle c o 2 instead of
7:55 am
emitting it? oh good. is it really that isn't good. i just put your synthetic fuel in my car instead canal than the sun in. and if we can deliver sufficient quantities to gas stations, then you can fill your car with it. that's a major opportunity provided by c o 2 neutral fuel monkey. you can use the existing infrastructure. oh, looks and cut. oh, okay. got it. synthetic fuel makes dirty. god, it's me. as long as the whole process is powered with green energy. well, that's a lot to think about. it's a lot to think about, indeed, joining the conversation about going vien can be overwhelming floss you may not know where to start. that's exactly why we're here. eco,
7:56 am
