needs to clean up its act. is that even possible? and low current house, south africans cope with an erotic energy supply. without electricity, a modern world would grind to a halt. no power means no. mobile phones, no internet access fridge is no heating, no cash machines trains at a standstill. and no petro either. and crucially to it means douglas, according to one study last year alone, 350000000 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, no accounts are
1:32 pm
a frequent occurrence for years. the state attic tricity supply has struggled to meet demands. things with 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 pseudo. because the national energy provider can generate enough power. and it happens up to twice a day for no, to love debate, it means that her scans 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 the do bet 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,
1:33 pm
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 in, 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 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 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 against house and one of johannesburg wealthy suburbs. her life is organized around the power outages.
1:34 pm
so we have of logo f that shows her 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 zoom in the or suburb, the power will be switched off every night this week, at least there stove runs on gas. so luckily we can finish making dinner. we can, we can, we can be on line full fun on of hoff. usually we actually sit and checked. i, 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
1:35 pm
a battery powered light for the stairs. so no one falls down with coming down the stairs. they said this is the darker side of south africa is so that august 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 because it's a fixed rate in the demand. 2 people wouldn't understand. we getting up to 500 phone calls a day. a lot of the people that tell us just money with so long
1:36 pm
paid 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 serrano 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. alternative sources, look at green, an energy. look at your sailors 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,
1:37 pm
the constant shut offs have damage no, go to the do bed stove. it still hates but only on the highest setting future or in aflac it back to me that i had to go to a meeting and i wish the government would listen to us here because it's not just my stove. that's broken. it's my fridge has stopped wash, nato will keith. when the power came back on, there was a power surge. and now i don't have a fridge. let a government tell us when a legacy 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
1:38 pm
energy consumption and cutting greenhouse gas emissions. this is the metal that made from modern world tick. imagine life without it. now cause homes dodge electricity, but this one, the material that alive the built around, terry, the dirty secret that nobody's 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 processes so dirty. the 1st is purifying the iron or needed the 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. that's like an oxygen atoms in the iron ore fly off and bind with carbon
1:39 pm
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 our this production develops. this is vito v touch co, a steel analyst at german climate thinktank acorda in a given the he says we're running out of time. the investment decision, steel makers make to day a crucial because these co fight loft. vanessa have a lifetime of 15 to 20 years. and after that need to be repaired or retired the 2020s are very critical. the kate industry guides because more than 70 percent of the global blast furnace fleet,
1:40 pm
lou reach the end of day contained life and require lee investment and re investment decisions. so what should still make of be doing right now? either jim hydrogen, hydrogen, it only jim's a wonders of 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 iron 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 2. 0, the beauty about this concept is yes, you needs a new production process. but as a byproduct, you have water instead of c o 2 and, and this is how we can make it, but still making process ton of the 2nd step and then feeding the purified eye and into an electrical fairness these devices meltdown scrap steel or reduced ion with high currents of electricity that turn them into liquid state. and ideally that
1:41 pm
they would be running on electricity made from renewable energy. that's pretty much what swedish steel make a s s a b did last year when it delivered the wealth 1st batch of fossil free steel to comic of over europe, steel makers, abetting the hydrogen will be the pinterest steel right now. it costs more to make 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 learn doesn't make steal greek. it's a process with several levels. the kind of feels like an onion. this is caitlin wallack, a steel on the list of 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
1:42 pm
. you have to make sure that that hydrogen is actually being produced through an electrolyzer that's operating on 100 percent green. i'm renewable energy, sir. time for hydrogen. right? well, unfortunately there was a catch. you need a lot of hydrogen, like really loads, making all the steel into you out of hydrogen would require about 6000000 tons of the gulf. just to satisfy the steel industry, hydrogen, if you need almost as many wind turbines that you have to date, if 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 for the problem so far is lots of still making regions, dirt habit capacity for at least don't have plans to build a top anytime soon. and piping or shipping green hydrogen from elsewhere requires
1:43 pm
infrastructure to do so. and that all means hydrogen can't be the whole solution. but the, the 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 made today comes from recycled scrap steel. the new d need that basically because the 1st step of purifying iron or is expensive. nothing else deal? well, that's much cheaper. we have a rising stock, global steel scrap because whenever a car, whenever a breach, whenever a building beach at the end of the lifetime, this scratch is collected sorted and then can be melted in electric oxygen to produce new still reciting. most fuel could massively help in cutting the industry energy demand. but there are limits. each time you price a steel little impurities,
1:44 pm
like cauffron nickel can sneak in and we can the metal. that means you can't recycle it forever. at that 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 company said the principal, a simple stick, a box on top of the polluting pipe and sack up the c or 2 that comes out so you can use it in industry or start safely 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 or ccf as an excuse to keep on polluting. but when it comes to the company that heavy industries, analysts do broadly agree that ccf the vital role to play alongside hydrogen. we're way behind where the department is going. and this is largely down into the inaction on the policy level. this is about panel from the clean at hospitals. it's
1:45 pm
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 how to raise the, how would it work on a commercial scale? is because your companies have an hunter actually reduced 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 chair of emission cclc can actually capture from steel. if steel make a stick to blast fantasies, but c c s doesn't quickly become cheap or efficient to cold, a burn. we'll just keep on polluting. we console steel by giving up on it, but there's a huge amount policy make that 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 schools 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 of 463000000 children found themselves out of school. and even in early 2022, millions of children were missing from classrooms. most schools have reopened, including in brazil, but many children, a still staying away to i have a toria. lima loves to slew the route she wagner and gabrielle have tough cases to
1:47 pm
solve together there for school detectives on a special mission lies them. if you go back and i l. u vomiting got that was sci fi t? as in nancy, where detectives, because we look for missing students and bring them back because he that's going on . so when there's school in rio de janeiro reopened 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. but that when each with age in 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 us like he them say activation last. 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
1:48 pm
pour over lists. students who are often absent or fell to hand in assignments will get a phone call later or personal visit. 1000 students, one goal. what is 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 in bush. oh, oh, carolina taylor looks out for her. 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 much for martha. the children need to change their reality themselves. so age, now the school is open and waiting for them as quiet that may i but by wild only. yeah, they are planning to pay a surprise visit today. have you though? not far away from the school. carlos, eduardo is also looking for missing students known as car do. he's one of the few
1:49 pm
who venture into the fabulous insert of them are placed. socially invisible is a bit about fulfill. people don't talk about it if somebody, if you will grab, there's nothing here after he may present it of forgotten place. dorothy now will guard 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 or 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 occasion can do, says it's impossible to get a good job. suddenly high school dropout, gabrielle shows up nice all up, but on which one would apply? no, savage, air conditioners the scrapyard was this,
1:50 pm
i watched up when the meal was. if you dropped out before the pandemic, right, right, and phonology, and i've been in a couple of lunch, gabriella left 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 for you, i could do hopes gabrielle will return and that schools won't have to close again due to curve at 19 each quality shows and cools be, you know, safe space. no food, no education. meanwhile, carleen taylor and his students who on a visit marlena the faces partaker when school reopened, the children didn't show 3 missing kids with the same last name. the detectives alert at the principal don't want to long when i re assume me, they all shouted at the principal, catalina, then everyone knew i was tell you that. but if 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
1:51 pm
papers and on social media. that's because marlena is illiterate. you don't wish you can look at basking. 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 detective, they're 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. i feel like you know, things are going to profit. my dream is to be a teacher and a principal though, so i need to work hard. i don't my, some of them the bow. latria will have to be replaced by 3 new detectives as they've accomplished their mission. by the end of the school year, almost all of the missing students were back in class.
1:52 pm
a dog is a person's best friends. well, they're certainly one of the world's most popular domesticated animals. estimate suggest around 470000000 dogs, a kept as 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 or roam 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. bako 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, then give me a buck. if one more only made ice, it was love at 1st. scientifically. when i saw him, i thought he so beautiful as will believe that what he also seem incredibly old.
1:53 pm
holy cow. cool. but i'm pretty sure he was abandoned renella quite a bit. backer 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, gomez. the only allowed thought as was that he couldn't see out of one eye and the vent suggested surgery to remove it is keesa. they thought he'd been beaten very badly for the more so he underwent an operationally signal here is that animal rights activist. andrea galindo was the one who found him there. that when i said the death during locked down, rumors circulated that post a threat to every dog in bogota garcia. they just her, if what that really. but okay, it was horrible that people thought that dogs were spreading cove it or don't know, people just abandoned them no matter how long they had the dogs to. but i have even 7 years in course, yet they those hanging on. it was just merciless and terribly hard on the animal
1:54 pm
and my daughter, my daughter. but 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. a belt 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. and those as well as the emissivity and yes, we received donations out and people help us out. i don't. there is a lot of solidarity. young echo more by ease i asked but people have to be able to afford it. yes. yes, i can get on this and lose a lot of social inequality in our country seconds. ha. and that means that we can't take care of all the animals on the 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
1:55 pm
a new family member 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 yet. the mute for animal welfare activist, andrea galindo, paco's new life is validation enough for her work. she is lost, count of how many dogs she's helped, and every animal she finds has a place in her heart known as i think i've shown you. it's hugely gratifying. i always tell myself that's one animal of humor that suffering but too few strays are as lucky as pocket. his new owner says faith led him to her. is legal. these i, because the pandemic gave us pocketbook giggles. i'm was gays to give to you. we have no idea how much you change your life, the daycare left feel. i think he was predestined to find us. so look at 4 more. it
1:56 pm
just take him 3 years to find ourselves. the goal is to be fun. this is his home, 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 week and do drop us a line to global 3000 at d, w dot com and check out our facebook page d w global ideas. see you next week. ah, [000:00:00;00]
1:58 pm
consist of trash. boundary dust is the main recycled material away. ready product from muscle production, which is usually dumped into nature, mixed in a bit of plastic waste and it's done eco, ah, in 30 minutes on d. w. ah, how many flu? so now in the world right now, the climate change. if any, off the story. this is lifeline. the way from just one week how much was going to really get we still have time to go. i'm going all with flux. if his subscribe along with like sometimes
1:59 pm
a seed is all you need to allow the big ideas to grow. we're bringing environmental conservation to life with learning pass like global ideas. we will show you how climate change and environmental conservation is taking shape around the world and how we can all make a difference. knowledge grows through sharing, download it now for free, lee or eternal political dynamite, and the pillar of sticking and society. a symbol of arbitrary rule and crucial tool in the struggle for justice. taxes the right to levy taxes and the obligation to pay them both in, in the sovereignty of nation states and their citizens. but what happens when the power of taxation is undermined
