stilton, a new petrol, ida and crucially to it means darkness. according to one study, last year alone, 315000000 people worldwide experienced major power outages. why do they happen? poor maintenance of power plants lack of modernization or simply to few power plants for the growing demand. on top of this climate change driven extreme weather regularly brings down power lines and pilots. in south africa pro a cancer of frequent occurrence for years, the state attic tricity supply has struggled to meet demands. they've spent the means to find a way around when it's dark and the power goes out. it's especially hard. 2 and a half hours of total darkness and large parts of so ito, because the national energy provider can't generate enough power and it happens up to twice a day. for no one to love debate,

it means that her scorns won't be ready in time. they need to be banked fresh each day if they're to sell like hot cakes. normally business is good enough for nope, which will do bad and her daughter to get by. but recent weeks have been tough. the power was switched off daily in their district. a state mandated energy saving measure, known in south africa as load shedding. you know, changing duty jo, chugging is driving us crazy. i've seen them. i have a small business and we're trying to grow. but this is holding us back a long time we gazed. sometimes i have things in the oven when they shut off the electricity, and i can't finish baking them in. then they all have to be thrown out. i guess i bet. she's angry at the government. 2 and a half hours without electricity means getting her sconce to market that much later

. and then cuts into her earnings the whole country is suffering as a result. for the past 15 years, south africa state owned electricity provider has had to interrupt supply to certain areas to prevent the power grid from collapsing. however, this winter has been especially hard at it's affecting all sections of the population. janice schechter is an entrepreneur who also runs a guest house and one of johannesburg wealthy suburbs. her life is organized around the power outages. so we have with low f that shows per suburb where we're going to have mckinney that we're going to have stays, went from 7 am to 4 pm, and not every one on the group is going to serve. in the or suburb, the power will be switched off every night. this week. at least there stove runs on gas. so luckily we could finish making dinner. we can, we can,

we can be on live full. on on the hall. usually we actually sit and chat. i hear. there we go. okay, sir. okay, so would i need to do a need to get some lights on? well, yes sir, janet schechter turns on the battery powered lights that were charged during the day and are distributed throughout the house powered by a battery. and this recharge as while the power is her husband brings a battery powered light for the stairs. so no one falls down has been coming down. is this a, this is the darker side of south africa is so that august's of 5, the country has all the raw materials. it needs to produce energy, mainly domestic coal. it's bad for the environment, but there is enough of it. there are enough power plants to. but after years of mismanagement and corruption,

they're so poorly maintained that they're feeling more and more often. the power has never gone out as often as it has this winter. those who can afford it are making themselves independent from the state power grid in johannesburg. many are installing solar panels the ideal solution in a land where the sun shines for 9 hours a day, even in winter. that's crazy busy. it's. we didn't rain the demand to people wouldn't understand. we getting up to 500 phone calls a day. a lot of the people that tell us just how much money it so long take lunch in the power cuts are promoting the use of green energy, but only for those who have enough money. most people here can't afford the roughly 15000 euro investment. for many years ago i to we, we headed the electric stove and we made it a conscious decision to move away from electricity. we had

a nice serene top glass top and we moved away from the the glass top and we went to guess. i would suggest to 2 people out there to look for you. alternate of sources . look at green, an energy look at your solas and, and see what's available on the market. he advises people to have as many different energy sources as possible. that way there's a back up if one power source fails. but that's too costly for people in the townships. not only do they have to live with the power outages, the constant shut offs have damage. no, go to the do bed stove. it's still heat, but only on the highest settings teacher or an offer. yeah, get back to me that i have to go to meeting and i wish the government would listen to us because it's not just my stove that's broken. it's my fridge has stopped washing my tail with keith. when the power came back on, there was a power saturated, and now i don't have a fridge. let a government go tell us when a let this thing and and she just doesn't make enough money with her scans to buy

new ones. in europe to the war in ukraine has led to rising energy costs and fee as of fuel shortages. more than 50 percent of the energy used in germany's manufacturing sector comes from electricity and gas. the chemical and metal industries are the biggest consumers, but they also offer the greatest potential when it comes to reducing our overall energy consumption and cutting greenhouse gas emissions. this is the metal that made from modern world tick. imagine life without it. no cause homes. duchess electricity. but this one, the material that alive the built around carry the dirty secret that nobody is talking about. the steel industry is responsible for jaw dropping, 8 percent of the wealth, greenhouse gas pollution. and bizarrely,

we're actually going to need a lot more of it to clean up our economies. so how can we make steel green and what's wrong with the industries favorite solutions? there are 2 reasons. the steel making process is so dirty. the 1st at purifying thine or needed for steel by heating i annoy the charcoal fire though, mixing it with coca cola and big blast furnaces. you can extract pure iron from rock. not because oxygen atoms in the iron ore fly off and bind with carbon atoms in the cold. what's left behind is essentially pure iron known as reduced. i'm and a whole load of c o 2. the 2nd reason steel sac said that it takes colossal amounts of energy to power this process. and most of that comes from you. guessed it, burning coal today. 72 percent on a global level are produced by this productions out. this is vito for touch. go

a steel analyst at german climate think tank a go to in a given the. he says we're running out of time. the investment decisions still make of make to day a crucial because these co fight loft fun. this is have a lifetime of 15 to 20 years and after that need to be repaired or retired. the 2020 is a very critical decay in this regard. because more than 70 percent of the global bloss furnace speech, lou reach the end of day campaign life and require the investment entry investment decision. so what should still make of be doing right now? either j hydrogen hydro jetting hydrogen. wanda's all hodgen hydrogen is a gas and fuel that can be made cleanly with renewable energy. oh, much less clearly with fossil gas. if you reduce ion or with hydrogen, oxygen atoms no longer react with carbon atoms to make c o 2. instead,

they react with hydrogen atoms to make a h 20, the beauty about this concept is yes, you need a new production process. but as a by product, you have water instead of c o 2. and, and this is how we can make the steel making process timing of the 2nd step, but then feeding the purified ion into an electrical furnace, these devices meltdown scrap steel or reduced. i am with high currents of electricity that turn them into liquid steel. and ideally they would be running on electricity made from renewable energy. that's pretty much what swedish steel make an essay be did last year when it delivered the wealth 1st batch of fossil free steel to comic of over europe. steel. make a betting that hydrogen will be the pinch of steel right now. it costs more to make it this way. but if gas prices stay high and carbon taxes rise, switching away from fossil fuels will become increasingly attracted from

a business perspective too. but of course, using hydrogen to learned doesn't make steel, greek. it's a process with several leaves, kind of feels like an onion. this is caitlin wallack. a steel analyst at the u. s. based non profit global energy monitor. the 1st layer is to make sure your electric arc furnace unit is running completely on like green energy. but then you need to make sure that the reducing agent and the direct reduce iron plants is hydrogen. but that's not enough. you have to make sure that that hydrogen is actually being produced through an electrolyzer that's operating on 100 percent green. ah, renewable energy. sir, time for hydrogen. right? well, unfortunately, we're the catch. you need a lot of hydrogen like really loads making will to steal into you out of hydrogen would require about 6000000 tons of the golf. just to satisfy the

steel industry. hydrogen needs. you need almost as many wind turbines that you have to date is not impossible, but it is a logistical nightmare. one of the big challenges is where we build these hydrogen ah, production facilities. it needs to happen in places that have that renewable energy capacity. the problem so far is lots of steel making regions, dirt, habit capacity, or at least don't have plans to build a top anytime soon. and piping or shipping green hydrogen from elsewhere requires infrastructure to do so. and that all means hydrogen can't be the whole solution. but there's a powerful way to simplify the problem. that sounds almost too good to be true. recycling you might not expect it, but still is already one of the most recycled materials in the world. more than a quarter of the steel may today come from recycled scrap steel the new need that's basically because the 1st step of purifying i nor is expensive. nothing else deal?

well, that's much cheaper. we have a pricing stock, global steel scrap. because whenever a car, whenever a breach, whenever, if it's lifetime, this deal scrap is collected sorted and then can be melted in electric, oxygen to produce new still recycling, more steel can massively help in cutting the industry of energy demand. but there are limits each time you price a steel little impurities, like copper and nichol can sneak in and we can the metal. that means you can recycle it forever. a 3rd solution has to keep the blast furnace as we're already using, but catch the emissions before they escape into the atmosphere. that's what advocates of carbon capture cooling for. fossil fuel companies say the principal, as simple. stick a box on top of the polluting pipe and suck up the c or 2 that comes out so you can use it in industry or start slightly underground. the reality is trickier. today,

capture rates are often low and costs are high. what's more, the fossil fuel industry has used the promise of carbon capture and storage ccf as an excuse to keep on polluting. but when it comes to be caught by the heavy industries, analysts do broadly agree that ccf the vital role to play alongside hydrogen. we're way behind them where they're going, and this is largely down into complete inaction on the policy level. this is a panel from the cleaner hospitals. it's one of the few environmental organizations calling to put money into capturing carbon. one of the reasons why we, you know, we don't know answers to questions like calculate the how would it work in a commercial scale is because your companies have hunter actually reduce their mission. the international energy agency expects carbon capture to cover half of will steal production by 2050 in the climate friendly scenario. if it works, it would free up hydrogen to be used in other processes that are also hot clean.

but to date, we don't really know what sharon emission sees. yes, can actually capture from steel. if steel make a stick to blast furnaces, but c c s doesn't quickly become cheap or efficient. the cold, a bird will just keep on polluting. we console steel by giving up on it, but there's a huge amount policy make then companies can do to get the tech solutions working access to education, a shared learning environment and a group of peers barely anything is more important for children. but the corona virus pandemic turned life upside down for around one point. 5000000000 children worldwide with school was closed. homeschooling and remote learning became the reality for many education was already a global issue. even before the pandemic, the 258000000 children worldwide had no access to schooling,

the pandemic made the situation much worse. for months, 463000000 children found themselves out of school. and even in early 2022, millions of children were missing from classrooms. most schools have reopened, including and brazil, but many children are still staying away to i, hey, victoria, lima loves to slew the route she wagner and gabriella have tough cases to solve. together there for school detectives on a special mission lies. now if you go back and i l u vomiting got that was c as in nancy, where detectives, because we look for missing students and bring them back because he just came on from him. but when this school in rio de janeiro re opened a year ago, almost half the students didn't return. during the pandemic, homeschooling was an illusion,

says principal carolina taylor. a lot of students have no smartphone or internet access. they stay away, but schoolmates, track them down with a penguin, asian with asian life. it's good for the children themselves. to play a major role. you think they can motivate their classmates in the say, i'm here, learn any come and join as lucky that they are the leash law. the school sleuths are inspired by budding detectives from tv shows and the principal found their outfits in carnival collections. dressing up makes the paperwork more bearable. together they pour over lists. students who are often absent or fail to hand in assignments will get a phone call later or personal visit 1000 students. one goal visitors don't cancel in the wrong things on the street and they should come to school and learn something valuable. every one should go to school that i have in my school. carleen taylor looks out for his students. here their days are structured and they

receive a meal and moral support for to annie. her principal is a role model and confidant. i wish this isn't my fault, martha. the children need to change their reality themselves at age. now the school is open and waiting for them as quiet that may i for by wild only. yeah, they are planning to pay a surprise visit today. katie, though not far away from the school. cutlass edwardo is also looking for missing students. known as car do, he's one of the few who venture into the fabulous insert of them are to lose my place that socially invisible visibility, that's what people don't talk about a video for. but if you will grab, there's nothing here after he me present it of forgotten place. dorothy, now i got gauge garcia, students are older. so instead of studying many of them work to help support their families. will he find missing students here?

anyone who wants to enter this for vale and needs to know someone like silver people year work without contracts or future security. and as brazil social inequality grows. so do the fabulous. without it to cation car do, says it's impossible to get a good job. suddenly high school dropout, gabrielle shows up nice all up, but me on which what i know, savage air conditioners of the scrapyard was this. i watched up on the meal of us if you dropped out before the pandemic. right. right. and phonology, and i've done that in a couple of st. lunch. gabriella, let's go before the panorama looks like so many. we weren't able to reach emily about. he's one of those who dropped down. i mean, free of us can do hope gabrielle will return. and that schools won't have to close again due to cov, at 19 each quality shows and cools be no safe space, no food,

no education. meanwhile, carleen taylor and his students, suwannee visit marlena, the faces pacheco when school reopened, the children didn't show 3 missing kids with the same last name, the detectives alerted the principal the one when the student in the area. so me, they all shouted principal, kara lina, then everyone knew i was because you to put up everybody who do back then she puffed by in person because marlena didn't realize school has started again despite all the news in the papers and on social media. that's because marlena is illiterate, you don't wish you can get past. i don't want my children to be like me. i can't read and write and i want them to go to school and have a future color. wonderful, thank you, ma'am. a lot of students will need years to catch up back at the school, the 3 detectives are handing out documents for the new academic year. after the

holidays, they'll be moving on to high school. they all plan to keep on studying. boy, you know, things on the preferred. my dream is to be a teacher and a principal though. so i need to work hard by stoned my some of them the bow. latria will have to be replaced by 3 new detectives as they have accomplished their mission. by the end of the school year, almost all of the missing students were back in class. i don't, it is a person's best friend on there. certainly one of the world's most popular domesticated animals estimate suggest around 470000000 dogs accept his pets worldwide. but the picture is not always is rosy as this one. millions of dogs a cast out by their owners every year. they end up in rescue centers around the streets as strays. exact statistics are hard to come by,

but animal rights activists suggest as many as 202500 1000000. and the pandemic st . made things worse. taco has a new sweater. something he could have only wished for when he was still living on the street. but now when he has a new owner, they're not as i did me a buck before more amid ice. it was love at 1st, scientifically. when i saw him, i thought he so beautiful is will believe that what he also seem incredibly old. holy cow. cool. but i'm pretty sure he was abandoned renella carter. i've been back to likely doesn't remember much about his former life. he was probably left on the street by his previous owner at the beginning of the pandemic in los angeles . almost the alley below thought as was there. and he couldn't see out of one eye. and the vent suggested surgery to remove it is keesa. they thought he'd been beat were very badly for the war. so he underwent an operation and they say to hear your

thoughts. animal rights activist, andrea galindo was the one who found him. that when i said he does this during locked down, rumors circulated that post a threat to every dog in bogota. yeah, they just hear if what that really but okay, it was horrible that people thought the dogs were spreading cove it go, don't know. people just abandoned them. no matter how long they had the dogs to what i have even 7 years in coffee at their those tanya, it was just merciless and terribly hard on the animal and we thought, oh my daughter, oh, what they weren't used to surviving on the streets outside like i did suddenly they were alone. i did with rosie and those hill lip about for over 2 years, volunteers have been working to care for the strays they collect food and trying to provide veterinary care. but there are just too many dogs.

info says that the almost everything yes, we receive donation with o n people. hell, but i don't. there is a lot of solidarity young echo more by ease i as but people have to be able to afford it and it gives us yellow, fun. good. on this and there's a lot of social inequality in our country affect cons. ha, and that means that we can't take care of all the animals, any mileage. some of the dogs are lucky and find a new home like pocket did. the son of paco's owner is really happy about having a new family member. he and polco. clearly he's pretty happy to. i want to put up that there are too many stray dogs running around, but we can improve their lives. yeah, thank you. for animal welfare activist, andrea galindo, paco's new life is validation enough for her work. she has lost count of how many dogs she's helped, and every animal she finds has a place in her heart known as had been filed fione. it's hugely gratifying. i

always tell myself that's one animal of humor that suffering but too few strays are as lucky as poco. his new owner says fate led him to her. is legal. these i, because the pandemic gave us pocketbook kennels, i was case a give to you. we have no idea how much you change your life, that they, they cannot feel. i think he was predestined to find us. so look at 4 more. it just take him 3 years to find ourselves wirelessly fun. this is his hope, but it does look awesome. there are still over 60000 stray dogs in bogota, each one also hoping to find a forever home and that's all from us at global 3000 this wing do drop us a line to global 3000 at d,
