11:17 am
a world to future generations that's worth living in on. and it biotechnology helps achieve that. then i'll use it to that entity, feel image, recognize that it's 6 am, and ludovico jaguar has been mixing and needing dough for hours already. the artist in baker honed his cr austin, france, and germany is bakery doubles as a laboratory. here he invents new and original treats, such as his trademark, forget made with algae, the al, get the sophistic this. it's important that people note, this is a natural product for him is making something like this. uh huh. which simple ingredients makes me happy. ah,
11:18 am
ah, me, and over the past 12 years, he's been making a lot of customers happy. here in the village of morning, outside unit jack walls, unconventional concoctions and use of regional ingredients have won the hearts and pallets of locals, his alligators, a big hit mama, i live, we've tasted everything. whenever there's been something new, we've tried it as one should with me are gay. nevertheless, at the end of every days a while is faced with a problem, familiar to many vegas piles and piles of unsold left over bread. some of it can be used as bread crumbs all mixed into doze, throwing out the bread as a last resort, due largely to the financial component. both the ingredients and the energy costs were baking or expensive. germany's food and agriculture ministry estimates the nation's bakeries produce more than $600000.00 tons of surplus baked goods per year
11:19 am
. packed on to a column of trucks bumper to bumper, they'd cover the distance from frankfurt to munich. and there's another issue that bothers ludovico jaguar, the use of palm oil and pastries and cream fillings. you think that? yeah, we probably need 10 kilos of pam oil per week, then it's everywhere and it's in her arm. so you don't realize all the products that intellect, muncie, destiny, stuff. this is new product. it's time to grind up the stale bread and thomas book has come to help. he's a professor of biotechnology who has spent years acting 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 line toaster. the eleanor on the monday we met because my daughter and his daughter attend the same school as graceful as an artisan vega. becca ludowici,
11:20 am
always based certain challenge. little we got to talking one time and he asked me if i had any innovative new ideas for his bakery. sheer, an innovative anoint. i gave it some thought in latin, and mentioned our new yeast oil on this to show that it was a heifer. so he said he used a lot of palm oil for baking issue pioneer, and that while there were alternatives 2nd, most of them were very expensive. i was it and didn't deliver the results he wanted . in the last, on the scanner heter stops on the us. king, my professors resourceful idea was to turn the final ground bread into cooking oil . harvest stood in the lab rather than the field unless it's met. i'll take this with me in a week and a half from now bring back the product and a lot of them. okay. finish her. of our new ever. every morning on the island of borneo in indonesia. and ma'am goes a li ventures into the jungle to bring breakfast to rescue durango hans. the
11:21 am
animals have suffered amid the palm oil boom. they faced displacement and poaching . but here at sambo, charles tarry an animal rescue center. they have a safe refuge. bonnie, in a wrangler hands are an endangered species. they need an intact rain forest to survive. but all around the sanctuary, the habitat is being destroyed. and the what it will go, which i will not is a lot in it. we're great all for this play. on but we have a duty to conserve the forest for the future in on the law so that not just the rang attends, but also our children can continue to live. here. these baby wrangler 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
11:22 am
adjusting. she's now 2 years old, but still physically weak and scared of humans. so when mom goes ali always approaches carefully and with a mosque to reduce the risk of transmitting infections to the animals and how it and letting a call one day, we found her on an oil home plantation. a she likely fell victim to land clearing on by end of another duncan. so she was still very small when we came across her orangutan mothers don't normally leave their babies on their own. so we think her mother must have been killed. seesaw ruby's plight as one shared by many other animal experts. estimate that the orangutan population on borneo now numbers only a few. 10000 having plunged by 3 quarters since 1950 in that same
11:23 am
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 off morality. 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 impact of deforestation in again, my bible, we're happy as you've seen an orangutan before and her in a lab or a protected bcc. if you see one, you don't heard or should it hurt them? hunting them is not permitted here, but by we're 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,
11:24 am
is to obtain the r s p o certification. now i've had it, it's only would it 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. that, that, that i have had a small holder to go and tells to last year about the common practices here again and then in a bit, often times 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 or looks like you did. are there some sally deeper horn? the branches were broken early,
11:25 am
but i the hands are we can we could see that the trunks became really hard on the inside. then, sir, 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 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
11:26 am
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, hust, turning them into the raw material for a new type of packaging material. he and a team of experts spent 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 and cloud 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. alice fuzzy online, co, everything you buy online needs packaging on bottle. but where did the raw
11:27 am
materials come from? that was our starting point. that's why the answers were made, vapor gone home. here the plant waste is further processed. the empty fruit bunches are loaded onto especially developed conveyor washer next to fiber. bundles of further separated the individual plant fibers provide the basis for the new commodity there, hollow light and easy to reprocess in a process lasting several hours. they are boiled than washed again and separated again until all that remains is a soft plant pot. and after a 22 hour drying process, the result is a crumbly material. other companies then use the product to make paper and cardboard products that are will to prove principal and come possible
11:28 am
well done, the guns watch, hulu. this is at the sophisticated and 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 has to be an we've developed a material that works and that's great motion on his function yet was washer. it's a win win situation. the oil palm waste is put to good use, and that's the source of income for local farm. a key ally in the ideas development was an entrepreneurial family and thailand, selena cook canoe to porn has already won a major award for sustainable management. what we are doing with them is the market and this project is them help us to create if there are sustainable values. shane from my in businesses and to make the farmer i can ah,
11:29 am
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, hyphen cloud, and has partners grant licenses for the innovative technology, only to sustainable palm oil producers. okay, and gratian clowers, continually perfecting the production process, which inevitably involves troubleshooting issues with new machinery, aradonda armstrong. we thought we were done on one of the egg newson, but we still have to make further improvements. does finance? it will probably cost us 2 working days. yes, this good on this is also the issue of employee safety. i need solutions that have no loose ends. there. gonzalez,
11:30 am
i am the own 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 loss of amish live, the little the hill, returning organic waste into cooking oil is an idea that the research is here have been working on for over 7 years now. dr. mac mood, 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. board read as a fantastic raw material because it dissolved so easily. when i mentioned, if we humans can dissolve starch and proteins for food, which often microorganisms definitely,
11:31 am
oil runs off to the left. over bread has been ground into powder, special enzymes are added to break it down into sugar and other compounds. next, east 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. no, no, it's only day. one of that it is what there is that drop of oil. oh yeah. through so can for them, would you say the black vessels? no. this is on concerning, but let's say 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. angelina, they don't look very healthy and it's, and we've seen them in better condition before sunk is then he isn't. and these are, these are the oil droplets inside the cell 5 in 2 days later on. so they have a 90 percent saturation and also exactly the right point to harvest them.
11:32 am
candidates, hypo who would annoy 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 jab juan. 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. so lusty optima was he has been up since to am. 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.
11:33 am
evans family. hm. okay. of course 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, but the it, it helps our economy related monthly economy and that was also how silva, the products like this cooking oil. one book are really useful in our daily lives. scorely for the fall of the soviet did her death and if it were gone that far, i can't imagine how we would make a do without a. c re manambra her plenty, and 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
11:34 am
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 a way forward sustainable farming practices on the land already in 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 our s p o standards. oh, so as there are said before, doesn't mean that everything perfect. as you can see here, right above with this process certification process, not the on the o. oh,
11:35 am
help them to getting 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 moment. our s p o certification does not mean a green eco label. what it does is ensure small but important adjustments to the 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 minute. another small holder from a nearby co operative the mother of 8 is eager to under certification and hopefully increase her income on the death of her husband. a year ago means that she's dependent on her oil palms to support her family. chemical fertilizers or
11:36 am
pesticides aren't in her budget via, via yes and your family, the media scholars, i se mondo looked at a used to grow vegetables and res lifestyle in these i didn't. and that's when i started using only organic fertilizers. yeah. do that or do loose when my animals didn't produce enough. i bought some extra gold manure, for example. we are on that, so my mic us up is i will let them and you'll be, i don't really use any chemicals. not i'm being a little thunder one month and before. gimme i'm in month i had to go down the cows grazing under her oil, palms keep the grass and weeds short in addition to providing milk and a natural 0 cost fertilizer. so la street, off my water and my 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. marty noon used to make a living from vegetables,
11:37 am
cocoa, plants, and livestock, but she didn't own 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. her fertilizer is produced at low cost and with no chemicals, a sustainable and affordable solution. so last 3 is impressed and we'll be introducing the idea to her co, operative the hope is that the small holders will finally be able to get our 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 a long awaited news that all the hard work of the last 2 years has paid off. the group was granted our s p a certification amount of money. and yeah,
11:38 am
it wasn't easy for the farmers to understand everything. honey. again, 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. were thor, have difficult at fail? what's the last 3 and her cooperative do with that endorsement, will also have an impact on the future of the rain forest. over in thailand, mark was my tosca on cation cloud, and his team have worked tirelessly to get the new machine operational. they ended up making and welding on brackets for the pressure pipes. as food not is, it still needs installation. it hits 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.
11:39 am
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, 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. if you ask, if you are happy, i years, what i see here, i think now what we're doing is i think the beginning is on the end of us months, 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. cool. if you would,
11:40 am
after 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, the last few months have been full of change for jaguar. a shortage of qualified staff meant he had closed down his bakery. he's pivoted to working as a product developer and test baker. 13 year old, our 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 is life slightly nutty. but not like when i see in sol touch
11:41 am
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 must be there if you could 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, and no red sail among 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 oil. she's even designed a t shirt illustrating the entire cycle, saving the rain forest and a wrangler hands with the help of some smart solutions. and a lot of left over bread caps might, as all, i drew the picture, there's
11:42 am
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, it 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 phenomenon versus get this writer. these oil 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. hello. hello. are 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 at zag with things soonest of em. fogged eyes
11:43 am
should sue in fact, we're now cheaper compared to conventional vegetable oils. legal 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 i give you it basically tastes like regular fat momos for dental without any after taste. this list is no way that i would have done it myself had the idea occurred to me. oh, boy, feeding surplus bread back into the cycle is not just good business will local bakeries, major chains, generate food waste on a massive scale and have now also discovered the savings potential buy. 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. it doesn't bear
11:44 am
all english issue 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 help to conserve all rain forests and enjoying the view and come to take a look at this tv highlights every week in your in box. subscribe. now that has been promoted. you do the full, i'd have to channel. fantastic. ah, she survived auschwitz,
