oh, what's it state for the world when americans elect a new congress as us democracy faces, yet another stress test? we're here to renew the latest or the fear of violence translate into action. and what the thief, mid terms mean for the next presidential race in 2024. let us bring the back story across all platforms this week. on d. w. with in modern life, we're always on the move, whether they're getting around or shipping goods across the globe,

a mode 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 some of that a good rickshaws have been around since the late 1800 and are largely accepted. and then in mention of japan, only hand drawn rickshaws be the will for cycled week shows. and later, the motorized worship autos as they're called heard in india on a primary mode of local transportation for many indians, but their heavy f when you to us, even shots can help solve this problem and address others to ah philip m m bertha la begging her when i drive, i feel a sense of freedom. i don't like being cooped up in a house had made a new milligram. the image in there, i used to think women should stay at home had made and now i can't stay indoors for

a single day begging i am full bodied anna. glad. when i make the only way that they're being self employed, affords letter been that freedom. 3 years ago, she was working 12 hour shifts in a storm quarry and learning a bit and see now she has her own electric picture that she has her own boss. to miss a deal for a our garage formerly known as alabama is located at the confluence of the ganges and the yamuna river in the northern state of whatever beach it's home to some one and a half 1000000 people. let our beans life changed when a social enterprise helped her to become financially independent. since 2015, the company s m v green solutions has reached out to people who are marginalized due to their gender cast or class. it offers to don them into green entrepreneurs

as either car owners and drivers might either neglect my vega was finance at her so i didn't have to make the down payment myself ma'am, if we could pay the loan back at our own convenience. im installments of disappears . 2000 autopay, 2500 and my name a good that way. i paid back the loan in 4 months. it would be 15000 in daughter, but i mean until at 1 o'clock if that's equal and off 200 euro's now. lily davina is one of some $130.00 female, either char drivers in author, british who also on their vehicles ah, the directions provided by the social enterprise come pre fitted with cameras and gps tracking systems that are connected to local police station. operating in 550. the know what 10 villages across the state, the taxi service also affords greater freedom to the women who use it.

is customary that women will not move out to a market or to a hospital without a male member accompanying. now they are comfortable sending the women with the women, but i was meant that son joseph, or when to see a woman driver, we also feel better about traveling alone the needful, compact, green quick transport options has never been more pressing in pro garage for example, about 80 percent of all commercial vehicles are diesel. about 2 thirds of air pollution related deaths in india are associated with these illegals. can help counter that provider. they have many advantages. they never refuse to take passengers and either cause no pollution at

all. that's not completely true. electric richard like little beans, have vito emissions keeping the des 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 from cold. still there clearly a step in the right direction, every helix or able to save boom metric tons of carbon by the ear. as i may say, which, you know, done by its competitive products like i see in the patrol arc. 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 and b green solutions is optimistic. it has more than 2 and a half pounds in your chair, drive those across multiple days,

and possibly hard acquired vehicle ownership. that customers have a good return. second, the legal requirements are list. so most of the, the forgot permit free tart. many states are now banning new registrations and permit for the diesel and patrol or toes in the city. yet for the time being only a fuel to drive was switching from petrol or diesel vehicles to electric once habit . and also people walk appear to be the main reasons for their reluctance. what is happening? introduce the market it. there are fleet margins who have a fleet of 10 to 15. 200 exploits are told i am talking about event, i reckon, and then pick to the people on delhi high. they live until it's very hard for us all for a customer or a button from my life community to deal with the with

a stakeholder in the system. so dealing with the vehicle manufacturer, the 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 chair driver. loaded the bean and husband mckendra martin couple. they have a 4 year old son and shed a childcare taking it and turns to go to work. my hands a dies and either shop on a living. he's always supported his wife in her work. but in venice and v green solutions told me that women were driving eating shows these days. when 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, but only if i wanted to. i told him to instantly, yes, i want to drive the hung with helena. most of the was goof on transported by a big ship with the, with 70 percent of them as contain arrived. cargo by the international shipping, industrial produce is as much carbon dioxide each year as a big industrial country, like germany. our reporter done deeper into why shipping remains 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. with the cotton probably comes from lubbock, texas. it's then woven, treated breached and died across the ocean in china, cut in stone into

a t shirt and bangladesh. and 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. so for example, it rains 247 in belgium, yet we buy water is bottled in south pacific fish gets caught in the north sea. it then goes frozen to asia, where it split it and sent back, but there is a hidden cost to these curiosities. the full price of shipping is being paid by the environmental in relative terms. shipping is very efficient, transporting one ton of cargo em. 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 she a distance?

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 z working to protect the oceans. $0.80. it ships abounding heavy fuel. no riches. i really think viscous. pillaging feel it's kind of, it's one step away from tommy he day. 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. find a bass 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 v recently

global leaders, they agree 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

error 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 ministry of transportation. they want to promote shipping aviation and so on and so forth. climate, the environmental challenges that has not been traditionally speaking their domain, that the domain of the climate ministry or environment minister. so this is 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 powerful lobbying associations, electricity, national 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 economist trade. the enabled industries to create one year a big keating's and t shirts that it 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. ah, when it comes to emissions is absolutely no excuse how slow the shipping industry is being to address that. it's just, it's absolutely shameful. mm. but momentum for change is building, it's recognized that we can't. so climate change with that we'll say solving the emissions problem from shipping. the european union is taking

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, green hydrogen, or getting hydrogen bays, fuels can fill that gap and fully to common eyes effective. but it takes good timing and effort to turn a tanker around. and the i m o has displayed neither shipping has been showing that it can move swiftly when it comes to reforming itself with thing that is possible. it is doable, but it's not gonna 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 a german conservation group has worked out that those $499.00 t shirts would then cost just $0.02 more. sometimes small changes can lead

to big results in kenya, for instance fishermen, but offered the chance to swap the engines on their boats from diesel electric powered. let's take a look at how much of a difference it's made to their work and their surroundings. ah as dusk fools, jared utter know heads out on to lake victoria since he started using an electric motor, he and his team no longer have to breathe in exhaust fumes. and it's not as noisy either. or cheney was 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 with the propeller turbine. so really through tapes, it might order me get contact with her manila you this

1st tree all the gear. so removing you'd have gum cumbersome reviews, one just due to 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 lights slowly attracts the fish to the surface. then in the early morning, i 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 them better. a gina shares the proceeds of the cat with the other fisherman, after deducting expenses. i'm sure he only has the electric motor and batteries on loan from a company called or salvo lab worker. every morning he returns the used batteries, and in the evening he receives a freshly charged set, a sober runs out the motors for the equivalent of around $38.00 euros

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 call. but sometimes when their 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

customers because it's made contact with companies in kenya and uganda that refurbished used batteries. these could be rented out to the fisherman at a cheaper rate. in the 2nd life, batteries will make them more duleigh. so that also we might, we mimic the current operations of our customers. but if we were castlemont war fall, we give them more bodies. then we tried this rich, i'd feed but but see like you don't go far, we give you full batteries, you undergo short distance. we give you one or 2 batteries and you pay for what you are used. a soho, as the 1st company in kenya, to invest an e, mobility on water and one of the few in general on the countries e markets around $25000.00. both are out on lake victoria every day. and many of them belong to kenyan fishermen who used combustion engines, which pollute the lake and home the fish population. often the fishermen only get

small silver sigh printed from the lake. and they catch quotas have also declined in recent years. jared aquinos, 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 use the money to pay the school fees for their, for children. and they've even managed to build a 2nd, but jared 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. listen, so the sooner the better another system does, why now i'm so put in a do cushion provider who did wishful from bare b if been employed to become turned my, our life. jared aquino has already persuaded some other fishermen to switch to

electric motors properly, 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 bang blue was breaking stereotypes and paving the we for more women to be independent, one drive at a time. 99 percent of the drivers in india. i'll meet the now i'm one of the few women, let think it my name is lee john seen when i'm to wendy 2 years old and i'm a taxi driver can get at everyone stairs at me when i drive by dancing alone with

up on them. but different people react differently mighty wrap up. some people are amused, my thumb smile by some will purposely overtake and cut me off and then in the ward that what's important. i've been with them as i'm curse and tell me to drive by door and some as if i even know how to drive a yellow down, whatever like that with ah, ah, going on. i heard about an opportunity where women could take driving lessons. even if i wanted to progress and live. so i thought this would be my best john didn't a little bit. so i learn how to drive me now and i leave at $530.00 to pick up the gog that i on a fixed amount every month. oh, and if i ended up like that, but if i miss a day,

i work on sundays to make up for able a send employee on the account with oh, let's not talk about traffic. it's so bad with in a good day, i only pick up female passengers. i don't drive men by the way, men look at women, it doesn't feel comfortable or speak with my date of ultimate going to school. when the driver is female, women feel more relaxed in when it goes into like the thing. oh, she will get us there safely and with money with ah, would they even i be scared if it is a long trip. dark at night, yet,

women coming back from the air toward field, particularly scared a man to take them anywhere since that line might not know the way to her destination. we'll go on, look, ah, there have been stories in the news about the driver who took a woman somewhere off the main road and raped her. that's why i'm all the men are becoming gab drivers. ah, now he had been a part of monotony. everything is controlled by men at the moment, and we may not all press got into another. you be not just when it comes to driving, a beautiful brother neville and let us be equal. we are all human being uh, letting out a lot of money shanda and has dinner with ah, i live in a slamming bank and all here. there is

a lot of alcoholism among manno dane, this lemma. women who live in this lum work se read burs up in mind. vegetable sellers and garbage collectors opened up at a later gotta minnesota come, there's not much money to me in the lot and there aren't many opportunities for improving your situation. either a if you are a sleeper, you will probably the us, we bought the money or maybe you will end up selling tomatoes or other mobile payment been indicted by bending many bags. when i look up. but anyway, after i finished the 10th grade, i started to wonder really why i had so few choices. they were that long. i only knew what it was like working at home of the metal, filling up what i said,

i never did either. my mother would like me to mattie, but i don't really want to live. my dream is to put my sister's little parlay, but she held my older sister. get married and buy a house with dish. when when if my father will yo. i think he would be brown, that if i let her go, whenever a girl has that problem, whether it's been her mother in law or husband, the adult, she shouldn't just sit back and or nothing. the she sure to stand up for herself. we are capable of so much, nothing is impossible for every body. all can be broken down land when b down in our homes during the fantastic each of us. a lies the value of being more

by what we must take care of now is that i need to be on the move doesn't harm the and by much think about that and i'll see you again next week. good bye. and thanks for watching. ah, [000:00:00;00] ah ah ah,

with who the realm of the amount in guerrillas living in africa is wildlife sanctuaries,
