pilot has come to help. he's a professor of biotechnology who has spent years working on creating an alternative to palm oil. and he might well have found a solution that addresses both of jab walls, predicaments. his idea is to turn left over bread into cooking oil on the white untrustworthy eleanor. on the, on monday we met because my daughter and his daughter attend the same school as graceful as an artisan vega. becker ludowici always based certain challenge a little. we got a talking one time and he asked me if i had any innovative new ideas for his bakery . sheer and innovative annoying. i gave it some thought in latin and mentioned our new yeast oil performance to show visuals. are heifer castille. he said he used a lot of palm oil for bacon issue of palmer, and that while there were alternatives 2nd, most of them were very expensive. i was and didn't deliver the results he wanted. in the last on the scanner header. instruction to us king my professor's
5:35 am
resourceful idea was to turn the final ground bread into cooking oil harvested in the lab rather than the field elicits mc. i'll take this with me in a week and a half from now bring back their product in about half off. okay. finish ever of our new ever. every morning on the island of borneo in indonesia, a man goes a li ventures into the jungle to bring breakfast to rescue durango's hands. the animals have suffered amid the palm oil boom. they face displacement and poaching. but here at sambo, childless tyree an animal rescue center, they have a safe refuge. only in a rank hands are an endangered species. they need an intact rain for us to survive . but all around the sanctuary, the habitat is being destroyed. and the water,
5:36 am
so got a lot in it. we're grateful for the play home, but we have a duty to conserve the forest for the future on the law. so that not just the rang attends, but also our children can continue to live here. the baby around good hands were luckily rescued and time discovered in the jungle with no parents unable to fend for themselves. they now have human guardians. once that old enough, they'll be released back into the wild. ruby is having trouble adjusting. she's now 2 years old, but still physically weak and scared of humans. so when mom goes alley, always approaches carefully and with a mosque to reduce the risk of transmitting infections to the animals and how it inter, letting a lot of fun. we found her on an oil home plantation law on these young. i think
5:37 am
she likely fell victim to land clearing on by in the duncan. so she was still very small when we came across her. i think you orangutan mothers don't normally leave their babies on their own. so we think her mother must have been killed caesar. ruby's plight as one shared by many other animals. experts estimate that the orangutan population on borneo now numbers only a few, 10000 having plunged by 3 quarters since 1950. in that same period, borneo lost over half of its forested area. the rank hands natural habitat here. the culprits logging mining and the rapid expansion of oil palm plantations. these alarming developments were a wakeup call for celestial latimer party. although her oil palm plantation is small, she wants to make a big difference. today she's talking to other local farmers about the devastating
5:38 am
impact of deforestation in organ. bye bye. we're happy as you've seen an orangutan before and her in a lab earlier, a protected bcc. if you see one, please don't heard or should it or did them hunting them is not permitted a about by we are we offer on by her audience here in kong? bang. as learning how to manage their plantations more sustainably, the last 3 years, effectively, the quality assurance manager for this cooperative enough of the groups common goal, is to obtain the r s p o certification. now, i know that it's only ordered by the round table on sustainable palm oil for meeting sustainable environmental and social standards. recipients need to have a proven commitment to a range of principals, including no failing of primeval forests, minimizing their use of chemical pesticides, and fertilizers, and knows lashonda burn agriculture. we have that, that, that hang up and small holder to go and tell us to last to you about the common
5:39 am
practices here again and then, and i, but oftentimes the soil is sprayed with weed killers in order to contain overgrown grass. but those toxic chemicals come with consequences. local farmers did not expect them. buckner had thought, while a betty the oil palms dod producing fruit to the hunger. lucille argues, did i dare some sally deeper horn? the branches were broken early, but by the hands or we can, we could see that the trunks became really hard on the inside. then sat broadening the thought, but i knew that us all of it with the reduced harvest, came a reduced profit. and the realization that something had to change. as a result, farmers here are working toward more sustainability and earning arist pio certification means the prospect of increasing their income and other worthwhile reason. and the trees can provide for more than just
5:40 am
oil, marco's montage curve on guy from clowers. seizing this potential. oh, it's now to fall on. it feels great. and sure enough for the lovely product with a nice color or manner really fresh smell the product earning his praises, a new raw material made from waste. lou thailand is the world's 3rd biggest producer of palm oil. but every harvest also generates huge quantities of empty fruit bunches, traditionally seen as waste and disposed of accordingly. but that surplus material from palm oil production is precisely what interests the german businessman. his company recycles the fibrous fruit husks, turning them into the raw material for a new type of packaging material. he and a team of experts spent
5:41 am
a long time devising the complex production process, with a lot of trial and error. it took 12 years to set up a production chain that was both sustainable and economically viable. guys from clark found the ideal partner in the tie, eastern pulp and paper company. it was while reading an article about paper shortages that he had the idea of creating a raw material from oil, palm waste. do i lose fussy, online, co, everything you buy online needs packaging on bottle, but where did the raw materials come from? that was our starting point. that's why the answers were made vehicle no. here the plant waste is further processed. the empty fruit bunches are loaded on to especially developed conveyor washer next to fiber. bundles of further separated the individual plant fibers provide the basis for the new commodity there. hello, light and easy to reprocess in a process lasting several hours. they are boiled than washed again and separated
5:42 am
again until all that remains is a soft plant pulp. and after a 22 hour drying process, the result is a crumbly material. other companies then use the product to make paper uncalled or products that are waterproof principal and come possible well done, the guns were food. this is at the sophisticated an alcohol in japan. they have very high standards. when it comes to packaging, as was introduced yourself, i'm proud that our material is being used there for high quality packaging like this. it's not an album instead of in, we've developed a material that works and that's great motion and its function. you still should it's a win win situation. the oil palm waste is put to good use and it's
5:43 am
a source of income for local farm. a key ally in the ideas development was an entrepreneurial family in thailand. selina canoe to porn has already won a major award for sustainable management. what we are doing with them is the market in this project is them help us to cree, if there are sustainable values, shane from my car and businesses and now to make the farmer i can ah, earn more and generate more income. our business, this one is the also to bring the sustainable intuitive power industry in thailand . views received lots of support because thailand wants to be at the forefront or sustainable agriculture. there are plans to build several more factories to produce the new raw material client cloud and has partners grant licenses for the innovative technology,
5:44 am
only to sustainable palm oil producers. ok. and gratian clowers, continually perfecting the production process, which inevitably involves troubleshooting issues with new machinery ever docking the armstrong. we thought we were done on monopoly ignition, but we still have to make further improvements. does photons? it will probably cost us to working days. yep, that's good on this is also the issue of employee safety. i need solutions that have no loose ends. there. gonzalez, i'm on co meanwhile, and the technical university of unit thomas book is investigating where the leftover bread can become a genuine substitute for palm oil supply . that one's pretty good. this one is a lot of amish live. the little that the hill returning organic waste into cooking
5:45 am
oil is an idea that the researchers here have been working on for over 7 years now . dr. matthews, missouri is a constant source of ideas. the principle is the same as with fermentation using ease to bring about a chemical conversion. just like with brewing beer, violet, not foolish. it board read is a fantastic raw material because it dissolves so easily. when i mention, if we humans can dissolve starch and proteins for food, which often micro organisms that are not like, well, we're honestly a face off to the left o. the bread has been ground into powder. special enzymes are added to break it down into sugar and other compounds. next yeast cultures are introduced to feed on the sugar and form an oil inside the cells. the oil is extracted sent to the bakery and used to bake bread. a prime example of a circular economy, but there's not much oil here. it's only day one of that it is,
5:46 am
but there is that drop of oil. oh yeah. through so can for them i would you say the black bicycles listens on concerning, but let's sail of a muslim act as the other. and it's also unusual that they're all in the division based on the wound we subjected the cells to especially stressful conditions. i'm galicia, they don't look very healthy and it's, and we've seen them in better condition before sunk is in. he isn't on visa, these are the oil droplets inside the cell, not fly in 2 days later on. so they have a 90 percent saturation and also exactly the right point to harpist them. another type of woman, unavailable harvest in this case means to solving and extracting the oil and rich cells to produce cooking oil. in 3 days the team can produce up to 70 liters. it's very thick. the palm oil substitute now goes back to baker ludovico jaguar. yeah, he's going to try baking with the oil that was produced from his stale bread. and it's very curious to see how the results will taste.
5:47 am
so lusty ultima was, he has been up since to a m. she has a lot to do. before heading out to the plantation, she takes care of her 4 children. her income goes towards feeding her family palm oil is an integral part of people's lives in this area in big and small ways and, and family. hm. okay. of course, the palm oil is really important for us, but then it has a positive impact on our society, myself included in my share that almost 5 years for people. it helps our economy laid them long bundle for economy. and the last also has silver flop of the products like this cooking oil. one book got a really useful in our daily lives. scorely will be found in the summer,
5:48 am
did the idea, and if it were gone or fall, i can't imagine how we would make do without i'd be my mom's. her plan today owns her the equivalent of $200.00 euros a month. while the cost of living is relatively low in indonesia, that's only just enough for her to make ends meet. so last tree is aware of the problems that the plantations cause for both humans and nature. but the oil is central to many people's livelihoods. there is no real alternative to the controversial plant. soybean farming, for example, would require a far higher number of plants and a lot more land. producing one ton of palm oil requires just over a quarter of a hector. but it takes to hector's to produce a ton of soybean oil. that's almost 8 times as much space. but there is
5:49 am
a way forward sustainable farming practices on the land already and use without the need to clear more rain forest. among the people pushing for this change as our day k art, he works as a project leader for germany's main development agency g. i said he's working to help local producers meet arist pio standards. oh, so as there are said before, doesn't mean that everything perfect. as you can see here, right above we have this process certification process not the on the b o, o helped them to get thing beer, but also connect them with other are small hoarders. ah, with the same objective so they can talk, it's either they can, they can learn or it's other, at least this is the best way. it's not perfect, i understand, but that's the best way that we can see at the mormon r. s p o certification does not mean a green eco label. what it does is ensure small but important adjustments to the
5:50 am
system. it's also a way to motivate people on the ground to voluntarily do more for conservation. today's the last 3 years, getting insights from my noon. another small holder from a nearby co operative the mother of ace is eager to under certification and hopefully increase her income. the death of her husband a year ago means that she's dependent on her oil palms, to support her family. chemical fertilizers or pesticides aren't in her budget via, via the ethnic. i'm ethan medical us. i see me mando lulu. i used to grow vegetables and res, lifestyle. in these i didn't, and that's when i started using only organic fertilizers, daddy daddy duluth, when my animals didn't produce enough about some extra gold manure. for example, we are on that. so my mic us up is i will let them into will be i don't really use any chemicals. not i'm being a little thunder my mother and before. gimme am
5:51 am
a mother. look around like, how's grazing under her oil? palms. keep the grass and weeds short, in addition to providing milk and a natural 0 cost fertilizer. so last read off my water in my you noon are among the 5000000 small holders world wide who are dependent on the palm oil industry. together this group of farmers produces almost 40 percent of the global output mar in noon, used to use to make a living from vegetables, cocoa, plants, and livestock. but she didn't earn enough. so she turned to the more profitable palm oil production. as a gardener, she knows a variety of ways to save money, such as producing her own plant fertilizer, from whatever ends up at the compost. and she has a special trick, brown sugar onion, it activates the bacteria and accelerates the process. or fertilizer is produced at low cost and with no chemicals, a sustainable and affordable solution. so last 3 years impressed and will be
5:52 am
introducing the idea to her co operative the hope is that the small holders will finally be able to get r. s p o certification. just a few days later, the last 3 has come to the co operatives office to compile the work schedules for the coming week. she's now received the long awaited news that all the hard work of the last 2 years has paid off. the group was granted arist vio, certification, and money from berlin. yeah, it wasn't easy for the farmers to understand everything, omni book, and we had to explain the programs every day and tell them what they need to do and what this will mean for them in the future. but we showed that getting the certification is possible. i thought that difficult as fail. what's the last 3 and her co operative do with that endorsement, will also have an impact on the future of the rain forest. over in thailand, mark was my tuscan truncation cloud and his team have worked tirelessly to get the
5:53 am
new machine operational. they ended up making and welding on brackets for the pressure pipes. the signal is still needs insulation, it heats up quite a bit. so next comes full insulation. what then will be back to 20 hours a day operation park refill. and just in time, there's considerable interest in his raw material. so he needs everything running smoothly. ah, with the growing bars in southeast asia, the factory in thailand has a steady stream of high profile visitors among them as the country's biggest producer of disposable paper towels. the owners here in person today accompanied by 20 of his most senior managers and engineers,
5:54 am
the company promptly signs a contract to buy the material and bulk together with a relevant licenses. the many years of work are really paying off. the she asked if you are happy, i years. what i see here. i think now what we're doing here in the i saw her and in the eyes on the world, i think the beginning is on the end of a smile. we're making a change for the better i guess with, you know, making money is one thing, but then doing it in a way that brings real benefits, including for people who don't have anything to do with the paper. the forests are preserved. it feels great. but cool, if you were off to creating a rule material for the future, the next step for guy from clown has partners is to expand into other countries. and there are already interested parties formula put it all back in germany. baker ludovico jaguar and his daughter are experimenting with the new oil . yeah, well, as it does with amazon,
5:55 am
the last few months have been full of change for jaguar. a shortage of qualified staff meant he had to close down his bakery. he's pivoted to working as a product developer and test baker. 13 year old mom dean shares, her father's passion for innovative baking, with both the new yeast oil and the super food al again, nationally is all it tease life slightly nutty. but not like when to see in sol, touch it tastes really good. ah, and the lab produced oil works nicely in the pastry cream. it's easy to incorporate and tastes good. i. so come and fill so much pdf. you can use it for a gush or a glaze for all kinds of bread products, destiny men like rosa and pretzels, bag and even loaves of bread, tooth,
5:56 am
and no red sail. and my knowing what even to another hind to him in concert could use it for any kind of dough. normally made with butter on them are of the season i'm on deem has a create of streak herself and is fascinated by new ideas, like the yeast oiled. she's even designed a t shirt illustrating the entire cycle, saving the rain forest and a rank. it's hands with the help of some smart solutions and a lot of left over bread taps might, as all i drew the picture, there's a baker. and in this illustration shows that nothing gets thrown away, but what does this and if you think about it and it's a good alternative and could really make a difference contest, russ working, no one was and us, we need to transform the whole system and we need a better world for her children to happen on that bit by bit. we can change things because i can't go on like this and i'm on versus get this right on the east oil
5:57 am
passed the tests conducted by the artisan baker and is in no way inferior to palm oil. professor thomas lucas, eager to spread the idea and pays a visit to pastry. chef alfred dos, ludovico job was also there to provide practical tips. oh, hello. for normally, like most bakeries, doors has a lot of leftovers come closing time. young. how about a more sustainable set up instead of throwing out all that expensive bread to the call from the yeast oil could offer? an hannah says it seaborne does not zag with, from scenario from infect eyes should sue, in fact, we're now cheaper compared to conventional vegetable oils illegal. and his take tom oil, her $1500.00 euros per ton. oh, the toner right now, our price is probably $1000.00 euros. hold on a moment. i'll make them do it. basically,
5:58 am
tastes like regular fat momos for dental women without any after taste. it's just there's no way that i would have done it myself. had the idea occurred to me, i'm going feeding surplus spread back into the cycle is not just good business for local bakeries. major chains generate food waste on a massive scale and have now also discovered the savings potential by they were also talking to large industrial bakeries with 6080 or a 100 tons of leftovers lion, didn't. they get returned deliveries from numerous supermarkets, doesn't there? oh gosh, play, shoot, and it doesn't stop there. he's also had interest from food retainers across europe . the new cooking oil fashioned from leftover bread could be a viable alternative to palm oil. and in the process helped to conserve all rain forests.
