change or station in the rain forest continued carbon dioxide emissions have risen again. young people over the world are committed to climate protection. what impact will because change doesn't happen on its own. make up your room, mind. w. made for minds with, with, it's been a football world cup like no other ma, many have been on the attack, accusing host casa, of disregarding human and civil rights. the hammer,

it has been defending its own seat ability to host the tournament. they also claim to be putting on a carbon neutral world cup. you good to be true. i will take a look. also coming up, treasures from trash, how old clothes are getting a luxurious new life. danger on the doorstep. what does war in ukraine mean for neighboring, moldova sport, and moving to gemini here one woman's experience adjoining the german workforce. welcome to mate d w's business magazine. now the football world cup in cutter is the most expensive of all time. continuing the upward trend of ever more costly tournaments back in 2006. the world cup here in germany was comparatively modest over all costs amounted to a little more than 4000000000 euros. next, it was south africa's turn in 2010. it became the 1st african country to play host, spending a little less than germany, around $3500000000.00 euros. then brazil really kicked things up

a notch in 2014 spending much more than the 2 previous host. combined. nearly 14 and a half 1000000000 euros. the 2018 world cup in russia didn't cost much less than that . but all of these totals are in a different league compared to the amount spent by cutter in the run up to 2022. it's costs are estimated to have reached a world beating 212000000000 euros beef assess for that money cutter is delivering the 1st ever climate neutral world cup. can that be true? tight dinah care reports is broke up will be something else. oh. common neutral one carbon neutral with 7 completely new stadiums in the desert with air conditioning, millions of people traveling to guitar, mostly by plane and a country running on 99 percent fossil fuels. yet they are calling the world cup

carbon neutral count. miss. ready that's because it is before we kick it off, we know this woke up has a lot of issues. thousands of workers with died. human rights violated corruption scandal with in people serious stuff. we're here to talk about a more overlooked aspect in 2010. could top ramos to deliver carbon neutral world cup foot, are they keeping it? let's start with the stadiums and their construction and the build up phase of the world come guitar built 6 permanent stadiums for the world cup renovated one and build one that is completely deconstruct to pull all of this within a radius of 50 kilometers. looking at the foss, greenhouse gas accounting report, the construction of the 6 new permanent stadiums is responsible for about $4500.00 tons of c o 2. and you can take a closer look. something is off, let's say these are all the emissions for building the stadium according to fi thought. the stadiums are going to be used for 60 years. so that can spread the

construction emissions over 60 years of usage. but it is only taking responsibility for 70 days that the world cup and the prep matches last that in this regard, 59 years. busy and 10 months, so you're looking at just 0.3 percent of the total emissions that are associated with the construction met maggi. and basically we get that number by can keep us owen estimates of the emissions associated with the construction of one stadium. this is judy france from cotton market watch. he and his colleagues recalculated the new stadiums, carbon footprint submission from one stadium. it's about 270000 tons of c o. 2 for one typical fed him. and so because there are 6 stadiums can keep the total, but maybe it's also unclear how the stadiums can be actually used for 60 years to of plans on paper for local teens or as event venues. but even big sa connections like brazil with 70 times the population of gotta have struggled to reuse their

prestige work up stadium is just a really, really good question mark over whether guitar is going to be able to do that. the devil is in the details with this route cup. this is also true for the fully deconstructed bill. ross abu a boot stadium spread out. it may from containers more durable and can be reconstructed in other places. so few are trading would need to be built over all, but nobody knows if that will actually happen. there are no plans for it. nothing. and because of the more durable materials, she initial emissions are 65 percent higher, but the green washing doesn't stop here. and for the fans and all that traveling for face to the world cup itself, by people's estimates, this traveling will account for 52 percent of all the world cups, emissions, the most absurd thing is that fever, calculated the emissions with one way flight tickets. so everyone flies to the well

touch, but no one is actually, that's so ridiculous. some pants will be even flying back and forth because there aren't enough terrans in katara love. i could go on energy transfer. the food you probably got the idea. disneyland has a huge carbon footprint, cheapest, and it will be $3600000.00 tons of c o. 2 common market watch says 5200000, if you and for the actual emissions of the stadiums. and it could be $10000000.00 tons of c o. 2, according to a professor from lancaster environment center, who recalculated flights and accommodation emissions for comparison. 10000000 tons of c o 2 is every one in the world watching youtube for a whole year home after you get that to 0. common offset. so fif up buys cabin credits for the c o 2 day emit and support projects that lock up c o 2, there's just one tiny problem. many projects don't alter that additional carbon.

whoops. we did a whole video on why offsets don't work out, in many cases, check it out on the planet a youtube channel. in the case of renewable energy, you can sell electricity that generates revenue that in many cases these days can cover their costs. i knew when farmer solar panels installation, for example, derrick breck off has worked on carbon offset policies for more than 18 years or so these activities might have happened anyway. and if that's the case, right, then you paying someone else to do something they were gonna do anyway. doesn't make a difference in terms of where he and his peers, he is globally. and so the world would have been better, he would simply reduce your own emissions. so what architect offset projects. so we have a wind farm. we have a rooftop solar power project, another wind farm water, palms, and it's just renewable energy, renewable energy, renewable energy,

energy industries on renewable energy. and it's just 6 projects that are listed here, which is the offer joke, isn't it? when you add up those carbon credits, you get just over half a 1000000 tons of c o 2. remember fif us as it's emitting 3600000 and we asked them about this. and they said it already secured. 1.5000000 tons of c o 2 and calvin tenant, they didn't tell us which ho offsetting can work, but we need more transparency. no one knows or can follow up if these projects are actually legit. it's also striking that instead of buying carbon credits from established international markets, katara decided to set up their own standard. and on top of all that the country in the desert with shit loads of sunshine is running or 99 percent fossil fuel. they've managed to build 11 solar pot in 12 years. they've obviously tried really hot force, massive one off international sporting events are going to cause

a lot of cavities, but you can keep the footprints down. what you should do is use more renewable energy to build the infrastructure if necessary, serious offsetting not just corporate window dressing less construction so hosts in countries where stadiums exist, or are likely to be reused in the future and less air travel for participants and fans. to say that the world cup will be carbon neutral, isn't blatant greenwashing, i mean a plus full p r. effort, but you need to take way better. action, staging, global sport events responsibly, is a challenge. no doubt. but you wonder whether, if i gotta really of amendment militia or the german city of munich showed how things can perhaps be done a little bit better when hosting the european athletics championships. instead of building any vast new stadiums,

it just made to do with the facilities built for the 1972 olympics. about exporting venues can be recycled. the same absolutely goes for clothing are thirst for fast. fashion means the world is over flowing with excess clothing, but we have met one design. i'm trying to turn text out trash into treasure. ah, every year 100000000000 pieces of clothing are produced worldwide and 92000000 tons of clothing, land on garbage dumps. effectively one truckload of clothes every 2nd. only one percent of textiles are recycled. this small studio near munich makes use of waste fabric from the fashion industry. even fabric samples from trade

catalogs are re used. they get turned into cushions or blankets. the shut off of a comma for we get the fabric from the fashion industry and foreman the on shown on various companies. just call us and ask if we can pick it up, offered to give elton phone not to school, but for them it's great because they don't have to throw anything away. i think they know that everything the order will be used in some way. we the full, the up at around but getting material in this way is expensive and time consuming because not everything can be used. and fabric that's unsuitable then has to be disposed of appropriately. the studio also buys left over fabric from the textile industry and uses it to produce it's trademark monster cushions. each one is made by hand by the install finishes with out of that. these fabrics are often relatively small pieces, so they all have to be cut individually as a does if i can't stack them altogether to cut like you'd normally do in the

fashion industry. i increase lag. so of course we don't have a machine to measure and cut everything to size. i which i'll, we do everything by hand particle. and then there are other challenges along with the unsuitability of some fabrics. in other cases, it's not worth it financially. and some island issues take. first of all, there are those technical constrain i don't understand, but then you also have to look at how durable and robust the fabric is yearbook that and the higher the quality be, the more densely woven it is where the finer it is. if i cashmere, the more valuable ass, if i know the issue this kashmir, that's where it makes sense it without a so it doesn't make sense for me to up cycle inferior quality fabric like to give out a to ob, citing either to through the net and that's reflected in the price of the studios products, cushions can cost up to $350.00 euros. wow. throws that blankets and hand woven rugs. may be over a 1000 euros. these are definitely luxury goods and

a lot of work went into them. ah, they sell both online and in interior design stores like this shop in munich. here customers are looking for great design and sustainability and aren't too worried about the price tag. the practice of turning old into high quality new is growing in popularity. i used with toxic kitchen young. oh yes. these days more people want to know where stuff has been produced and what the working conditions. ally when i model it was dish on may believe in buying quality that will last long. so for ice of it, it vis beula has spend over 30 years working as a design of for the big german fashion labels. she knows the industry and its shortcomings and wants to see change. ah,

a particular household. good. i have to say, i feel quite guilty now if gift of escripts, there were situations in the past where i need bad decisions in the forgotten high . if for example, should we use the organic cotton and pay $0.20 more? the purchase stick with ot, we've always done obama oil could sign about fancy. and in the past we most decided to just stay with the status quo dash licensed in china. get final math with law right now up cycling is still a niche market, but the growing demand for sustainable goods offers a huge opportunity for small companies like this one to get in on the action. moving on now and since its invasion in february, russia has been waiting a brutal war in ukraine, but other nations in the region are all so fearing for their futures now moscow has already cut off gas supplies to moldova after the country made it's e u ambitions.

very clear moldova as also provided an essential route for deliveries in and out of ukraine. it's key strategic position means that moldova is port is looking ever more vulnerable to russian pressure ah trains arriving at the port of jeered you lashed with coal for the winter. a continuous stream of trucks loaded with artificial fertilizer and grain and scrap metal headed for turkey, kidney olive oil, i know everything that's going on here and i identify a 100 percent with what we're doing. just like in many of my colleagues were very proud of what we've built up here. we could have was in this material from to her is originally from germany. but he's been managing most of us only port for 9 years now. it's just 460 meters wide and on the river danube right near

the border to water ukraine. this is the border fence. the front line is a few 100 kilometers away. but could the port get caught up in the conflict? could a new front, open up here fonts as a free mold out for us is a mold over what happened in the ukrainian york city as odessa. we'll the terminal fight years, the opinion here in moldova is that if russia doesn't manage to take odessa, then moldova will be safe to mend them, like the mold asi here. after the invasion of ukraine, there were fears that the criminal also had mould of her and its sights. mathias, vancouver is proud that he's helping to stimulate commerce in this former soviet republic. one trade a has started to export scrap metal to turkey by the port. a major breakthrough in a sector previously dominated by organized crime. i 1000 fancy would it up to 2020 . the scrap metal market was to be frank controlled by

a local gang. what scrap was collected and sent to a metal processing plant in trenton history up here in 2020 the market was opened up and since then it's possible to export scrap from moldova. oswald all trans mystery is the breakaway region in east. in moldova, it's controlled by moscow. russian troops are stationed there. casino is molded as commercial on political capital. the country with its population of 2600000 people was recently accepted as a candidate for future european union membership. oh, on the edge of the city, we visit the factories of a company called monocle. it produces dried, fruit, and nuts. in this area, staff are busy turning fresh plums into prunes coming

of be called, took over the running of the business after her husband died in the pandemic money cold sauce is the raw materials for organic products from its own orchards in moldova. lots of camino because organic produce is exported to the e u via truck. she's also hoping to export her goods directly to asia on the us through the port on the down you but her greatest challenge is retaining enough stuff. all too often good workers choose to emigrate with many heading for the european union people law indian they are leaving. they are looking for better health areas where trying here to improve the conditions, to increase salary multi not because we could not be competitive for was the level of the seller is high in europe in union. worries are shared by many businesses in moda bucket. the port

a g u lashed their i normal cues of trucks outside the village. it's a bottleneck for cross border traffic with goods destined for ukraine offer romania and the rest of the european union. other trucks are seeking to access the ports of goods to be transported by c at the town hall, the mayor is making plans to expand the port. she wants new roads built and the port turned into a modern logistics center. the big question mark over everything is the warren ukraine. she isn't english the instant the mantles on day. we were at risk here tomorrow. at the a mom, we have to border crossings, one to romania, the other to ukraine bottle. then as a railway station and the port of call to see below, she know still a lot of fuel is being transported, my son and all kinds of goods are being brought into and out of ukraine. awful, which helps ukraine was somebody dental dental,

vision of dental kay in grain grown in ukraine is currently being unloaded in the port. it's going to be sent from here to egypt. grain and some foul oil are among mold of us, most important exports. the port manager is expecting grain exports from ukraine to increase. he's been keeping a close eye on developments in the war yard yard. margaret tried it. oh, we have more grain. you know, i can't put an exact figure on it, but we can see that we have a significantly higher volume because the grain traders who export the grain from here are buying it from ukraine. this gets hightail. so quite so i don't have a separate set of statistics, but as well as grain, we also explored a lot of sunflower oil from ukraine, also krajina mateus from to her as expecting exports to keep growing. his port is gaining more and more strategic importance as the war and ukraine drags

on all of it. but even though the conflict is so close to him, he staying optimistic and continuing to expand the port facilities for they are watching, made they do is business magazine from berlin. and here in germany, there's a great need for workers, skilled workers in particular in every sector, pretty much from engineering to nursing. germany's own population appears. unable to fill the gaps and that's why the government in berlin is planning immigration reforms to help attract more talent from abroad for those who arrive many challenges lie ahead, not least learning the language, but we've met one woman. you haven't let any of that data. ah, and as i have, my name is camina r. motus. i'm from francois. i'm 37 and work as an innovation manager at

a s. m. l. berlin. but on the answer, it was a coincidence that i chose germany. this is, i was at a lecture in poland and the professor was talking about a project in germany. my mind was elsewhere and i was looking out the window and then he yelled, why are you scared of going abroad? but i came to i thought, i'm not scared of the show. would you up with them? yeah, yeah, gosh invoice a button. i didn't know any german when i arrived when it was tough at 1st, i had to learn it and i did it go program. okay, else when i tell my family about my work, they don't understand much about it because it's quite an abstract field. my principal of um, shit and i work with very different people from different departments about those in the middle. and i like the collaboration marie and thus will, but i like different cultures as that as much of what the buyer will though. so going give us a model of his a s m l is an international company available,

and we have employees of different nationalities that of the wa studio as smell, supplies the wells leading chip manufacturers with the machines that make the chips . we're looking for international technical talent to help us develop and produced systems. i'm not even sure that i as a a, it seems to me that homes can easily get jobs as engineers or technicians. but to have a career, you have to put in a little effort. i've thought that that probably isn't units i compare learning german to snowboarding in the beginning. it's difficult and complicated. i let it also hurts a bit, but then it's ok after you learned the grammar it gets easier and easier to wattsey . ah.

but i could get those of musky, but andreas specific as a woman in a mostly meal industry, you boat, you have to learn certain wheels less, come around, thomas get away. i felt a male dominated industry in the us mail roles of ocean all to a churn of. i had to get my elbows on a little bit of warm. it's tough guy. i spoke with aditya shuttle co. i also had to speak with a bit of a lower voice law and the show than i wanted to send, not pay so much attention to emotions. we threaten you, but to logical thinking. we have that up as we walk that more than i am authentic about of about dialogue. it's not a little more vanya. my hobby is ty boxing the what's on here for thought the 1st training session, my adrenalin serge shuttle and i got her but other than you, i'm for him not flipped yellow with my skin books. it's all i like that you have to give it your all 5th solutions. just you have to come in. scorpion at the lucas on the here and now he he perform and then to the practice while the awesome

intricacies starting at every stage of my career. i've written my goals uncolored, note cards, i have always achieved them for profit. initially. i did a ph. d in chemistry. well, palmer and then i did a post doc on the phone book and then i decided to study management as i from danya of i studied her mom and switch to innovation management tommy like that one after the other. those are the exact at the sometimes i find an old piece of paper like been at in a drawer somewhere. that's good issue. then i feel proud that i would she goals up close that them up so they go from world cup goals to korea. gall a, see what we've done that once again, it's been a moveable feast here on mate d w's. this magazine. thank you so much for joining us this time around. if you want to re watch any of these reports or our previous fissions and dave to head over to d to we dot com,
