receive you enjoy eating at home with your family, was harvested by people more being exploited. if this were for the, in the green revolution on some, absolutely necessary europe revealed the future is seem determined. now, our documentary series will show you how people, companies, and countries are we thinking everything lacking later changes? you'll have reviewed this week on d, w. ah, in modern life, we're always on the move, whether they're getting around or shipping goods across the globe. a modes of

transportation or convenient, but they're damaging the environment. how can we make mobility more sustainable? that's what we've talk about today. hello and welcome to eco india. i'm fun with that. a rickshaws have been around since the late 1800 and are largely accepted as any mention of japan only hadn't drawn pictures be the we're for cycled week shots and later the motorized worship autos as they're called heard in india and a primary mode of local transportation for many indian, but they're heavy f when you to us. even charles can help solve this problem and address others to ah, let them back up begging her when i drive, i feel a sense of freedom. i don't like being cooped up in a house and mit i know a lot on the image in that i, mister things remained her stay at home, had made
6:32 am
a. now i can stay indoors for a single day and begging a ample body then i couldn't make didn't the rest i being self employed afford the bean that feed him 2 years ago. he was working 12 hour shifts in a tone. corey and learning a bit. and now she has her own electric shop that she has her own bought. ah, the deal formerly known as a law is located at the confluence of the ganges. and the minerva in another state of it, home to some one and a half 1000000 people. little beans, life changed when a social enterprise helped her to become financially independent since 2015. the company s m b green solutions have reached out to people who are marginalized due to the agenda on it. also to turn them into green entrepreneur election
6:33 am
owners and driver doesn't live in glen. my vegas was finance. so i didn't have to make the down payment myself. we could pay the loan back on canadian in installments of just be 2000 auto pays $2500.00. and then that way i paid back the loan in 4 months. $15000.00 in total. but let's look at if that's equal and of $200.00 euro now little b as one of some, $130.00 female extra drivers and who also own their vehicle directions, provided by the social enterprise come brief entered with cameras and gps tracking systems that are connected to local police stations operating in 5 cities and what 10 villages across the state potassium,
6:34 am
this also affords greater freedom to the women who use it. ah, customers that the women will not move out to a market or to a hospital without a member accompanying. now they are comfortable sending the women with the women, but i was meant that some joseph said for when to see a woman driver, we also feel better about traveling alone. the need for compact green quick transport options has never been more pressing in prior garage . for example, about 80 percent of all commercial vehicles are diesel because about 2 thirds of air pollution related deaths in india are associated with diesel vehicles. you can help counter that provider, they have many advantages. they never refuse to take passengers and eating shows
6:35 am
cause no pollution at all. that's not completely true. electric richer like little beans, have vito emissions keeping cities cleanup. but the battery production process m. it's greenhouse gases and an india 70 percent of the energy required to reach out to legals come some cold. still there clearly a step in the right direction. every helix, all able to save boom metric, tons of carbon. but here, as you may sandwiches, you know, done by its competitive products like i see in the diesel and patrol article. and if you see with our customer base alone with 2500 people, we are having more than 5000 metric tons of carbon buddy. eating shows make up less than 10 percent of india auto industry. but s m b green solutions is optimistic. it has more than 2 and a half pounds in years,
6:36 am
drivers across their bodies and possibly be hard acquired vehicle ownership, that customers have a good return. second, the legal requirements are less so most of the permit free power. many states are now banning new registry offense and permit for the diesel and patrol or doors in the city. yet for the time being only a few chan drive was switching from patrol or diesel vehicles to electric ones, habit and also people walk appear to be the main reasons for their reluctance. what is happening? introduce the market. it says that our fleet margins who have a fleet of $10.00 to $5200.00 exploits are told i am talking about event, i reckon, and then rent it to the people on delhi high. they live until it's very hard for us all for a customer or above them from a my life community to deal with the with
6:37 am
a stakeholders in the system. so dealing with the vehicle manufactured a, dealing with the department dealing with the insurance company from facilitating bank loans and insurance to helping with paperwork with the regional transport office and also offering smart battery swap system. the social enterprise is trying to make it as attractive, uneasy as possible to become an easy driver. loaded the bean and husband, my haines ra, a martin cup. they have a 4 year old son and shanda childcare, taking it and turns to go to work. my enroll drive and either shelf or living, he's always supported his wife in her work. but in my benefit, the green solutions told me that women were driving, eating shows these days and i checked with my husband. he said yes indeed they were . and he asked me if i was interested in learning, and that he would help me,
6:38 am
but only if i wanted to. i told him to instantly, yes, i want to drive to hong with atlanta most of the was goof on transported by a big ship with the, with 70 percent of them as containerized goggle by the international shipping, industrial produce is as much carbon dioxide each year as a big industrial countries like germany, our reporter done deeper into why shipping jemine's on go to ward to transport goods between countries. take a look at your standard t shirt. where does it come from? the label says made in turkey or mexico or bangladesh, but that's only part of its epic journey. the cotton probably comes from lubbock, texas. it's then woven, treated bleached, and died across the ocean in china,
6:39 am
cut in stone into a t shirt and bangladesh sent back to the u. s. a couple of clicks later. it's traveling across another ocean, say to berlin, where it sold for for euros. 99. it sounds like madness, but it's actually shipping. shipping is so cheap that some aspects seem absurd. for example, it rains 247 in belgium. yes, we buy a water and the is bottled in south pacific fish gets caught in the north sea. it then goes frozen to asia, where it splitting attendance at bat, but there is a hidden cost to these curiosities. the full price of shipping is being paid by the environment in relative terms, shipping is very efficient. transporting one ton of cargo m. it's 16 grams of c o 2 per kilometer. it's over 10 times that by road and by air it's a lot more. but in absolute terms, it's an absolute nightmare. is the she a distance?
6:40 am
is that mean that is a mission stack up and become a problem? lucy, gillian works for sees at risk and association of n g o's working to protect the oceans. $0.80. it ships abounding heavy fuel. no riches. i really think viscous pulling to feel it's kind of, it's one step away from tom. and, you know, the industry emits as much as all the coal plants in the us and just a bit less than aviation. but somehow shipping escape scrutiny. shipping is the only sector it doesn't pay for carbon pollution. fine. a boss off leads the shipping program at transport, an environment and enjo campaigning for cleaner transport. it's the only sector that doesn't pay taxes on the fossil fuels uses. it doesn't pay the 80 percent the
6:41 am
global leaders, they agreed to impose 15 percent global minimum corporate taxation rate that was on one second. that was exempt as shipping. but how can that be given the scale ships handle some 90 percent of global trade? then there's a strange little enigma. imagine something going wrong on a japanese built american owned tanker. sailed by a philippine crew, managed by a cypriot sailing from china to canada. can international waters. who do you blame? well, maybe panama, panama, marshall islands, liberia, bahamas, malta. this 5 countries, which you don't really hear on our, on a daily basis, right? they're not really big powers in the global politics or even economics. they are the king makers when it comes to shipping. that's because of a system called flag of convenience. the practice began during the prohibition era
6:42 am
selling alcohol in the usa was illegal, so passenger ship owners began registering their ships in panama, so they could serve drinks on board. the international maritime organization is the only body that can set policy for the entire sector. it's a un agency task with, among other things, fighting climate change, but as done the opposite. there are multiple reasons. first of all, at the imo members, states are normally represented by the ministries of transport. they want to promote shipping aviation and so on and so forth. climate, the environmental challenge that has not been traditionally speaking their domain, that the domain of the climate ministry or environment minister. so this is a kind of structural problem and policies are rarely put to vote. the i m o prefers to rule by consensus, which gives louder voices, a de facto veto power, and number 3, industry has power for low being associations. they literally fit in the national
6:43 am
delegations, and in many cases put pressure on the governments. 30 percent of its representatives are not policy makers, but business people, the highest number in any un agency. ah managed build as a big ships to exploit economies. trade, the enabled industries to create one year a bikini and t shirts that had just said cheat the people, think of them is disposable. and that's been facilitated by cheap shipping. that doesn't pay for it please. sure. oh, when it comes to emissions is absolutely no excuse how slow the shipping industry is going to address that. it's just is absolutely shameful. but momentum for change is building. it's recognized that we can't solve climate change without also solving the emissions problem from shipping. the european union is taking
6:44 am
a leading role to force companies to reduce emissions. and innovation can be a huge help or believe technology such as batteries for short, distance vessels, grain, hydrogen, opening, hydrogen, bays, fuels. can i fill that gap and fully to come in either sector? but it takes good timing and effort to turn a tanker around and the i m o has displayed neither. shipping hasn't shown that it can move swiftly when it comes to reforming itself with thing. that is possible, it is doable, but he's not going to happen on his own. then it's the regulations that mandate switch to those sustainable behaviors. sustainable technologies on the shipping companies need to renew ships would be far more expensive, but at german conservation group has worked out that those for $99.00 t shirts would then cost just $0.02 more. sometimes small changes can leads
6:45 am
to big results in kenya, for instance, fishermen were offered the chance to swap the engines on their boats from diesel electric. but what, let's take a look at how much of a difference it's made for they work. and they said on dings, ah, as dusk fools, jared or tiana hits out on to lake victoria. since he started using an electric motor, he and his team no longer have to breathe im exhaust fumes and it's not as noisy either. auto renew is one of the few fishermen here who started using an electric motor last year. it's much easier before he was constantly having to change gears or so. you have to be careful rebid propeller turbine. so really to tubes. it might order me get contact with her manila,
6:46 am
you the 1st tree all the gear saw removing you to gum cumbersome reviews. one you just do just automatically come up with the mac. the fishermen use soda lamps to mark out the area where they plan to cast their large net, with the light, slowly attracts the fish to the surface. then in the early morning, they pull up the neck. the nights are long on the lake. only after 12 hours do the fisherman returned to me again. a beach in the town of m, b t r a t n a share the proceeds of the cat with the other fisherman, after deducting expenses, he only has the electric motor and batteries on loan from a company called a softball lab worker. every morning he returns the used batteries, and in the evening he receives a freshly charged set, a silver rains out the motors for the equivalent of around $38.00 euros
6:47 am
a month. the batteries cost 7 years 50 per day. a lot of money for fishermen here. the dutch started a sober, had to do a lot of math to develop this business model. they saw the batteries and motors from germany. here in kenya, they have technicians who take care of the repairs and maintenance. they also offer a 24 hour service. if there are problems on the water, the fishermen have to call their rescue number that we can resolve on corner. but sometimes when they technical issues are not in a position to be solved during that time, we have to, we have to send out as to what to go, pull them back, or maybe change something, a component of the engine for that matter. the batteries are equipped with gps track is so that the boats can be precisely located in case of emergency. more than 15 fishermen have signed a contract with the company i saw as working to improve their offer to get more
6:48 am
customers. it's made contact with companies in kenya and uganda that refurbish used batteries. these could be rented out to the fisherman at a cheaper rate in the 2nd life, but it will make them more duleigh. so that also we might, we mimic the current operations of our customers, but if we were come on to wolf fall, we give them more bodies. then we chide this rich, i'd feed but, but see like, you want to go far. we give you full batteries. you hon, short distance, we give you one or 2 batteries and you pay for what you are used. i saw as the 1st company in kenya to invest an e, mobility on water. and one of the few in general on the countries markets around $25000.00 bows out on lake victoria every day. many of them belong to kenyan fishermen who use combustion engines which pollute the lake and home the fish
6:49 am
population. often the fishermen only get small sylva sy printed from the lake and they catch quotas have also declined in recent years. jared or tina is wife and mother take care of the catch every morning, 1st drying it and then selling it as quickly as possible. the fish are the main source of income for the family of 12. they also the money to pay the school fees for their full children. and they've even managed to build a 2nd boat. derek atlanta wants to equip this one with an electric motor too. he has a plan for his family. i'm praying god willing that my children know to be fishing was so be suited of us to another system. was why now i'm so put in education provider who did wishful from bear b if they're employed to become change my, our life. jared atlanta has already persuaded some other fishermen to switch to
6:50 am
electric motors problem. but he and a sofa, a still among the pioneers of e mobility and it will take many more like them to see a benefit to like victoria and it's fish to be more by is a gift for each one of us. it's our ticket to participate in social life. our team met a woman taxi driver in big blue was breaking stereotypes and paving the we for more women to be independent, one drive at the time. 99 percent of the drivers in india, i'll meet you know i'm one of the few women thought it. my name is lee john. see when with me, i'm to wendy 2 years old and i'm a taxi driver and we'll get at everyone stairs at me when i drive by denson and
