or the people shaping public opinion. the key word share is the word fake. we know that where are the right magical battle lines being drawn, the propaganda war for ukraine? russia's war in ukraine. one year since the ship began to take a look back and into the future in slow rain. in february on d, w. ah, ah, human interventions have transformed the world, but many harm the enlightenment, demanding a change in our res. we've proved it's possible after global action,

the yacht was only of is now recovering on e going be already. we look at other damaging habits and ways to kick them. hello, welcome. i'm some of that now cutting the use of chemicals in products like hess, pre and refrigerators, has helped here that was only what would be all reduce our reliance on one of the greatest inventions in history. the electric light bulb, artificial light, floods the night sky, creating problems for people, plants, and wildlife. we took a look in chennai where light pollution is having a big impact. ah ah, as darkness falls across india knight time is when the eastern city of janai is at its brightest. at bonham. i thought i remembered only was at places like candy

bazaar and wrangell nathan street at night. it feels like it's day time. it doesn't feel like it's night due to the use of bright artificial light lights. okay. the use of artificial lighting in chimney has gone far beyond what is needed to see and operate in the darkness. instead, it has become a source of light pollution pantheon money than i want to protect worry moreland only like what to lucia curious when the artificial light created by mankind affects living being he's pretty. are the kind of a are being it other than my really marcella. the late pollution of being a little silly s danella and i, we can witness light pollution in areas like the town i, airport zip codes, monopoly and co m badani in these areas will either have a greater population or more activity over here. we exponential growth of cities has made light levels of problem. there are 4 types of light, pollution, glare light, trespass, clatter and sky glue. if i remember, like village,

we use the bathroom scale to measure light pollution. here. on the moultrie sky 9 is the highest level 6 die, and i records a level from 6 to 8 to the light pollution renaissance. as measured by miranda. it's only in the last 150 years. that earth has seen a light source beyond the natural light sources like the sun and the moon. but it's in the last decade that there's been a massive up surgeon, light pollution. according to researchers studying its growth, usage of light is hitting unhealthy levels. they say, i'm disrupting natural processes. yard order got home and they're not that he murmured. he sees a crow searching for his prey during the night. ha ha. similarly nobody sees a bat searching for it yet, right. during the day there viet guardian thought america. forty's timings are totally dependent on the light to present in the environment there. what if,

if this is known as circadian rhythm, this cycle is affected by the light outside? yeah, morley opening at the light pollution is having a huge impact on plants and animals and can have unforeseen consequences. and i'm a back up when he argued at lee up in california bung with the army number already, turtles. while they're eggs, you now see sure. and returned to the sea, but i got them a billing after a number of days, the turtles had shout direct themselves towards the sea and effectively, but it was due to the bright light at the seashore. the turtles get misled. they walk towards the road of 40 and they get a kill every color, but we see hundreds on lunch getting clear or not. they're going to play it. then i'm a thought on the apartment. you know my, the medical team, it's the same with our flight stuff. all of the were not able to see any fire flies in the urban areas. you're out with a unit of the reproduction process of live flies is completely dependent on darkness availability influence. and these artificial lights doesn't allow males to

meet females either. and so they cannot mildly and that stops the reproduction process that a company entire species could become extinct. high light levels are not only having an impact on biodiversity, it can cause health issues such as eyesight problems, headaches, and feelings of stressed. and humans. studies also suggested light pollution can in fact lead to certain kinds of cancer and people if the rate of pollution advances at an alarming rate higher than m a is an awareness of air pollution and even the sound pollution among the people for the water. but there's no understanding of like with pollution among people helping get a bill. there's an opinion that the right light looks good, allow them a little. we don't realize that we're both troubling others and putting ourselves in danger. what operating it over to one out of a regular light is not just useful in darkness. it also holds cultural significance

in cities like generally here using prominent lighting to celebrate festival events and functions is important. so i format in, i mean we can see many footlights being used on the read from marina to avoid param these lights are important. i don't deny, elena does a flurry of activity over and also for the safety of women and crime prevention is very important. but why do we need lights so much bright swallow, coming away that they are? these are common problems and many cities, regulations on commercial lighting, to tackle pollution exist in some countries, but more can be done. se environmentalists, india learn the marionette to reload such regulations in india directly. so we need to set regulations and a monitoring system for it. so we need to give awareness of like an allusion to the people. i see this as the 1st step to controlling the issue. taking action promptly could help human help and preserve the environment. well up not the

pollution, the plague, the capital is notoriously in the air. belly is the worst in the country with stock since climbing to poisonous levels. winter after winter to tackle the problem, the city is banking on a shift to electric mobility. we had a look around to see how it's going. new santos. mr. i was getting ready for his 2nd shift of the day. this morning. he delivered milk across delhi, this afternoon, its packages for a large delivery service. as always, he gets that owned by electric power breaker or a lease l. i for an electric breakers much better than patrol driven bacon and merchant also renter missionaries, one of around $1800.00 diverse employed by electric bees. logistics providers, single. the founder said the art on a mission to electrify last mine delivery services. that refers to those makers

that delivered products from milk, bread and gadget to pretty much everything that can be purchased online. right through the doorstep. lashmar, leonard ecosystem was one of the significant contributors for this air pollution crisis and all the majority of that renewal. and you really don't do any kind of that as you know, carbon emissions. they have no common dioxide emissions outpouring demand for faster delivery dimes is growing and businesses are rising to the challenge with many aiming to deliver products within a 30 minute to one hour window. india, as farmers market, is expected to go to a value of 5 and a half $1000000.00, or $5100000000.00 euros by 2025. but the trend is taking its toll on the environment. in non profit research group standard recently conducted a survey on the last my emissions of the 6 largest global delivery company. it found that total last mine delivery emissions in india equaled and estimated $500000.00 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent to the animals you do emissions of

more than $100000.00 federal passenger vehicles. ah, 80 percent of transport emissions is the actually emerson's emissions in our breathing soon. so which is eyes haven't been the st. john's for their missions. it could be, you know, commercial transport, personal, private transport, but mostly is commercial transport rate which, which is what is affecting us mostly for, for the fuel combustion. me quality daily, the vast of any major city in the world. the cities government has introduced campaigns such as switch to tackle the problem the state has now given companies in the cab, ford, and e commerce, delivery sectors and deadline, they need to convert entirely to electric by april 2030. we have had very, very positive results on the uptake of electric,

regular decisions last year, 2020 to 10 percent of new decisions re electric. and in december we touched a point of 16 percent. and in fact, the biggest change is coming in the commercial vehicle segment. for last my delivery of goods in 2020 to 60 percent of a because it is turned way electric. so it's a major shift that we are seeing in not districts firms. ingal is considered a formidable plan in the green logistics sector. the company handles almost half of the deli base business of grocery giant, amazon fresh and gowns, almost all major e commerce companies as partners. but it's not all plain ceiling. i think the broad challenge that everybody feels right now is the lack of infrastructure in the market. so when you talk about judging of marriage, when you talk about electrical connections, right?

and dealing with this comes, let us tell us nag daily plan to do on our 30000 charging point in the coming years . currently just under 2500 ad opertitional ah, my interaction to bill, lot of tv lo drivers have been though the lack of charging access where they live drivers who have talked about difficulties in having charging points either installed in their homes or in basements or within their, the places they live, even if it is not a gated community. one company helping to build a workable energy infrastructure for ease is mobility. to solve the charging point problem, it offers up be as you go model, which allows drivers to swap battery that designated swap points. around 250 points in this a d ah vase in people. we did that,

the battery from the waco from the electric waco are discharged back 3 comes into the station. he puts it into the station and hopefully by 3 comes out for the last 2 and a half months, minute off has been using some mobility slap points. weiss, a d at the water more metro station. his daily earnings have gone up to about 1000 peas. that's around 11 euros from when he used to died who spectrum and to show why and how wide a lot of. busy are no issues like the need to use the cables or wires charging it might be normally just come here to teams, points and use the talk and we'll be judging by then we have a josh by 3 already and i think i can talk to between just 10 to 15 minute my god in this one, the reason why they put in here. but there is still a long way to go. india as energy mix, which includes $75.00,

which in fossil fuels means evie cannot be completely off. andy, but there's still better for the environment than federal power breakers and the daily authorities are optimistic. the ambitious electric brake policy launched in 2020 to ensure that a quarter of all new registrations by 2024 our electric. and meanwhile, e v drive was like some tours, missouri are leading the way on the city street. ah. more than half the world spoke to listen, relies on advice as a daily source of calories he, autumn, india. the staple can be on the menu up to 3 times the b. no growing rice may be good for our health. it's surprisingly bad for the planet. our reporter wanted to know is that a better way to produce it? bryce is not light on the crops. it was domesticated on 3 separate continents and

has fed hungry civilizations across asia, africa, and south america for thousands of years across the world, right farmers land, a common technique. they found the grain grew better in wet soils and dry one. and when they flooded fields, they found weeds di need, but rice survived. that's why even today, farmers keep fields flooded for months at a time. and here's what makes rights. one of the dirtiest crops we grow. when backed hair in the soil break down dead plants, they usually release carbon dioxide. but in a flooded field where i can't get in, there's less oxygen to react with the carbon in the organic waste. that encourages the growth of bacteria that make a gas called methane instead. methane doesn't last as long in the air c o 2, but it hits the planet 80 times more over 20 year period. what's more, the nitrogen in the fertilizer means paddy's bew out nitrous oxide, which is $270.00 times more powerful than fear to if you look at emissions per

kilogram, a bowl of rice itself isn't worse than a pork sausage or a block of cheese. but the sheer amount we eat means fixing rice could save a ton of pollution the most obvious solution is to drain field, so bacteria dirt make me thing. across east asia. farmers have drained the paddies in the middle of the growing season to save walter and its waters growing even scarcer. the trying a method of alternatively wetting and drying the puppies. so the rice still has enough water at its roots, but you're just reducing the amount of water that's sitting around and not reduces the amount of methane not being produced in the fields. this is mossey buranski, a scientist cleaning up rice and thailand. so in principle, it's a simple technology and doesn't require any special machinery. you

literally put a perforated tube or even a soda can into the ground which shows you the level of the water below the surface. and so you let the field drain naturally until it reaches that level, which is the bottom of the roots of the rice. and then that's when you flood the field. again. this simple trick is half methane emissions on some farm and it saves water that's going increasingly sca. but if intimate and flooding a so great wind farm is growing, all right, this way. the 1st reason is changing habits and policies in bangladesh. a recent study found the ultimate wetting and drying has failed to take off because thomas didn't have an economic incentive to save water. they pay for the area of land, they are good, not the amount of water they use. so they see little benefit from using that. the 2nd problem is nitrogen fields where the water content varies the season produce

more nitrous oxide than fields that are the wet or dry. that's because wetting and dry and create cracks in the soil that let him oxygen which react with nitrogen to form nitrous oxide. using left flatly, that can help avoid this, but trying to still trying to work out how to stop it entirely. but the problem is that you get less rise, that the soil gets to drive. one review, found yields fell 5 percent in field that were repeatedly drained and flooded. it doesn't sound like a lot, but it can be life changing for farmers. a simple way to fix this is by wetting and drying fields any sparingly. instead of flipping from bone dried. so this means you get the same amount of rice but can still save one quarter of the water. another solution is to boost youth with other techniques. one approach and the system of rice, intensification that has spread around the world. it creates a better environment for growing rice. by doing 4 things. found has taken any the healthiest seedlings to plant in the bodies. they space of other parts of it. it

might have been nutrients, they wet and dry fields, and the chun soil to kill wheat. oh, small hold of farmers have started using the technique which has gained support from governments in countries from india to indonesia. lot. the growing right clearly is just one piece of the puzzle, the hundreds of millions of tons of farm waste as another and the weight vomit usually deal with it is toxic for both people and the planet. there are only a couple of useful things you can do with rice dro, like turning into animal feed or using it in packaging. fact, these are very small scale obligations, but i store what you need to do is somehow use it to make either energy or some who i am a product that can be used on the farm research. this is an a booty bhatnagar, a scientist trying to walk out what to do with the straw daneen and that is only 2 weeks. i'm big window, harvest restaurant and the next group say good. so bidding 2 weeks after both

collected transported and use it somehow, otherwise it 8 d grade that tight window mean the cheapest option for the farm as is to just burn it. stubble, dining of the practice that bloss pollutants into the air and chokes entire cities . the biggest problem here is even climate change. it's a deadly gases that everybody breathe. one way to pick that is to spray the field with bacteria that break down the straw into mulch. farmers can mix it into the fields to improve the fertility of the soil, but it's crate the crops that breaking down the straw. take 3 full weeks until scientists can speed up the process. it'll eat into the planting time. another option is to take the straw out of the field and heated at high temperature to turn it into a dry mass called by your child by a char, the porous carbon rich substance that can be mixed into top. so it has tiny holes

that trap water in fat, lighter in the soil, the longer reducing amount farmers me to out and it can even be chucked into power plants to replace dirty fuels like cold. it's promising i did. but setting up a buy a china 3 is tricky because the quality of rice drove very so much that makes it hot for the earned of the reactor to actually sell by your child with consistent properties. when you're talking about any industrial process or any commercial buses, we need to ensure uniform quality. like every day, they're day run, the reacted i need to get the same quality or better. but if research as i now these technical kings, they could create a powerful alternative to binding rice straw. for now though, breaking it down on the fall, maybe the more promising solution. fixing rice, it a no brainer. it keeps apart from heating. it saved wiggling water supplies, it cuts air pollution, and it makes a global food system more secure in the face of increasingly extreme weather will

make the task either that or like me to a dairy. there's no big rice industry lobbying against change and holding back progress. busy challenge instead is to change the habits and traditions of farmers around the world who can afford need a low a yields no more extreme weather from one staple to another. that's indispensable to french cuisine, butter studies. so it's carbon impact can be more than 3 and a half times higher than plant beast equals. so good a wiegand crossel make the cut. let's get the one from batters. can of begin croissant without butter. when over the french. never go to the no butter . no, no, no, i don't want to live without butter. no worries them so that surprises me. paris. his 1st beacon pastry ship bernice lake count takes on the croissant challenge.

just i bet you can cra, sounds can match no more ones. but did she place her bet without considering french butter fans with 8 kilograms per capita per year? there the world champions and butter consumption? 60 right, that's part of our culture. we love butter like a must have in french cuisine knob to come to letters. french, just like the my get about, i a butter with everything all made don't do with rise with pasta, we put butter and everything at the small bottom of the bill. the ingredients are the same as in the original and val uneasily cons. beacon recipe, except instead of butter, she takes vegetable oil and saw drink instead of cow's milk. the croissant is considered the supreme discipline among beacon bake goods. let al develop to nicholas. this is the taste of butter is unique and difficult to replay, and the vegetable oil makes the pastry dry out more quickly. okay, so you have to adjust the moisture and the yeast del accordingly. hot it in as

a slice is ish. when the dough is rolled out, the star of the show is usually butter bernice that can't take marjorie instead. then li rolled out it's placed between the dough. the dough is folded over and over again and then rolled out. this is how puff pastry is made. in rela, bob, i'll close like one to get even classes. we use a cross song catalyze, i think you don't learn that in training, but it just is vast end of it. the class across on shape, however, is still done by hand and into the oven. they go, let's see whether the beagle version can convince the butter connoisseurs in paris . baron is laconic, opened her store in 2017. it was frances burst, big and pastry store at the time. she wants to appeal to as many people as possible

. doesn't edited again, but people who are happily vague and may still miss classes long. all forget eltic children with an egg. allergies can discover pastries with that and entered the bathroom. sometimes people throw their arms around me because they haven't had pastries them so long. all like they have, i'm and we have them with no dairy and no eggs. well, i follow up with you to see if all the modified classics are on offer here. macaroni with moran made from chick the water instead of beaten egg whites or lemon tarts with tumour. rick instead of egg yolk for colour. stay on that. as i've asked again, what attracts me to vague and baking is the challenge. i got a phone call when we opened 5 years ago, there was almost nothing there. now there are innovative methods and new, vague and product. it's odd. the at the challenge is to keep the recipes evolving to try manually fall fiscally. and it was that speaking of a challenge, the croissant are ready,

butter versus no butter. we're good in which one's better to admit as good news or lessons that are included anymore. it's less doughy and crispy, or i prefer this one. did it? this is better. what can we finish them? the result, 5 to 5. what does the pastry chef say? i said i have to 50. well, i'm relatively happy with that. uh huh. so it's a draw. perhaps the french are less butter crazy than they themselves believe. well, when intention meets action, even are deeply had beliefs and practices have the potential to change for the better if you have keep them all inhabited to help the environment. tell us about

it on eco india at b w dot com. i'll see you again next week. good bye. and thanks for watching. ah, with ah, ah, with

ah, ah, he's trying to stand what's behind them. d. w, news africa. the show that was the issues shape in the continent. life is slowly getting back to normal. yeah. well, in the streets to give you enough reports on the inside of our cars fund that was

on the ground reporting from across the continent and all the trains doesn't matter to you in 30 minutes on d w. wow. wow. wow. car is made in germany for decades, they were a symbol of excellence and reliability with what they are glamorous image is getting its blemishes are cost cutting measures and a focus on efficiency affecting quality german cars. when will they lose their sterling reputation? read 90 minutes on d w. sometimes 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

a documentary series about the future of food with the great debate this week on t w. ah . ah, this is dig up, didn't you? like from berlin to night? one year of the russian invasion of ukraine, ukraine's president sending a clear message away does not leave our territory withdraw. stop selling us, stop killing civilians, stop destroying our infrastructure for stroke daughter.
