12:30 am
i'll just stop into that and i'll give you the order. would you be able to order that? i'm jo, media, doctor coverage. the more people than ever on the move world wide in such a base are nice to jump, be able to use many, they can t methyl do it only like goes have you already a female exit for peers and that, you know, does all of pearson menissi school or them was moved, 3 gets expose. go to lunch when you find out about all the story info, migraines, reliable news to migrate wherever they may be. the, [000:00:00;00] the
12:31 am
raw materials are essential. costly and limited supply. one metal that's just about everywhere. copper, if used in power cables and electronics for its high electrical and thermal conductivity. since it doesn't rust, it's ideal for water pipe and is used in pro. we've been, she's making. copper has been used with thousands of years. a several archaeological excavations have shown it has been used to make some of the world's most well known landmarks like the statue of liberty and an entire paris metro station where it is cop are come from. and what does it take to extract it? well, and so that in this edition of made dw business magazine, and here are the other resources we're looking at nuclear energy, controversial get popular in poland, water fighting shortages with creativity and spices. our trend gains,
12:32 am
momentum to pundits and value. welcome to the show. the copper is vital to the energy transition and digitalization in telecommunications. electric vehicles, wind turbines, and solar energy plants securing this metal in europe is increasingly important to wall major produces, china and russia are no longer dependable suppliers. europe is looking elsewhere, including sweden. that's going to be even country has the continents largest copper deposits. and at the i take mine, guntee, excavators and trucks are used to extract the metal. a reporter question for celsius visited europe's largest copper mines. gargantuan trucks are at work in europe's largest, the open pick copper mines located in northern sweden. oversized excavators, loads them up. the mine is hundreds of meters deep and the rock ends up in the world's largest stone mills,
12:33 am
which extract copper to supply europe's high tech industries. but can it be done in an environmentally friendly way? she drives one of the biggest trucks in the world, a caterpillar $795.00 f q in europe such as compromise and run by the company. both of the vehicle is as big as a house, 8 meters tall. tag along with her to load up some rocks. sophie vis through them, drives through the page in this 3400 horsepower vehicle. so how does one actually get a drivers license for one of these mess of trucks? you have to be uh, at least 21 years old. your drivers license for a car for 3 years,
12:34 am
and then the education lights on the full day. if well, i will need to ask, sometimes i'm running stuff or shift is 8 hours the pants down into the mine is steep besides here, so we have to waving is required so that other drivers can see that your away can doing fine. the truck transport $600.00 tons of rock per trip and breaking times are long. i think maybe i don't know, reaction time, rates time bars because this is a big truck and it depends on how we load the roads. how are they? if it's no way it is a waiting to be loaded. now the world's largest excavator vehicle gets into
12:35 am
position the p. n h. excavator. 4100 c 10. 1 load carry 60 to 80 tons of rock. it has 2 motors and can even be operated electrically. massive explosions are a common place occurrence here. every months, new layers of stone are being loose and for transport, the curve routes that used to be there, i'm no longer exist. and that even gets on sophie's nerves, sometimes it when you are free for we do come back to you. it's not sure that you will find your way around here because you always always change your belt . stretched for miles, transporting the top or rich rock to the stone mill. it's also the world's largest of its kind. they use the same amount of energy as some cities. it makes me feel
12:36 am
very small. of the rock is put in water basins where it is chemically processed to separate the cover from other substances. in the end, you're left with this concentrated copper mixture engineer monkey selina works in the preparation hall and is one of the people in charge of the refining process to add another factory. copper is separated from the mixture and they'll sit down, apart from small amounts of silver and gold. more than 99 percent of the production consists of copper factories consume massive amounts
12:37 am
of energy plus the electricity they're using comes from 100 percent renewable sources, such as from this nearby hydro electric plant. that has improved the minds, carbon footprint in the past years. and that's important to the industries customers to the customer, the demand, uh i will say a cup, the product, the test has low call them footprint and also good quality. very fortunate to have mainly high on the hydro power election to have sophie and her colleagues driving 3 shift j in tonight all year round. over half of the 60 drivers here are women. this is usually something that people think is a man's job or something that women can do it too. so why was it like oh,
12:38 am
i think it's attractive because it's fun. now it's time to fill up the fuel tanks with over 7000 leaders of diesel of it's as much as the heating oil needed by one house over a year. the truck can go for 32 hours per tank low. then it's also set to change. less diesel and more renewables are truck isn't electric hybrid with one diesel engine and one electric motor. so now we're going to connect to the trucks, drive on renewable energy coming from the electric cables above them, the by 2030. all the trucks in service will be electric, then the company will marketed as green, copper,
12:39 am
virtually c o. 2 free and powered by 100 percent renewables. poland wants to reduce this dependence on fossil fuels, which is still a large chunk of the countries energy mix. the government is investing heavily in nuclear energy to change that. it plans to build 2 large nuclear power plants and construction for one of them is set to begin next year. but well, many in poland, support and nuclear energy. not everyone is happy about the site. the government has chosen for one power plant. a reporter mark who is in sco, was there switching from code to the action. that's the cost that poland is taking. today 70 percent of poems energy mixed comes from domestic t mind. mcknight, cold, the coal fired react trip. they had hacked off is, you know, just demit to risk greenhouse gases. the plant nuclear reactor is meant to be part
12:40 am
of the solution. and then i get to get back to like 204075 percent of our energy mixture consist of non fossil fuel sources. dr. isn't a good half of that should come from renewable energy sources and a quarter will be from nuclear energy. only 25 percent will be from gas and cold. just in the hall. jones, this is guys will ease the thing. last by $24036.00 units with a total capacity of $6.00 to $9.00 gigawatts will be built at 2 locations. the 1st site has already been chosen directly on the baltic sea viruses. i don't use taste as far as i can tell. this location is conceivably the worst place for a nuclear power plant and to because of all the nature here is the chief level. in general, i'm not opposed to building nuclear rafters, but this location is
12:41 am
a terrible choice. by 20 says he for the 1st react to will go online right here at the beach. the position is growing. 19, the activists want to stop the construction. the group is organizing protests and public forums. we know the residents in the area, the an excellent and cut touching a tree bush of which moved here 3 years ago and rent out some of the cartridges. then not just against nuclear power. they have other concerns to do chips is who if they build a nuclear power plant here, this area will be a construction site for 20 years and i'm up and looked at that will killed tourism
12:42 am
in the area. agriculture. clean a and hardly any industry. that's what makes this community on the coast so attractive, perfect conditions for the tourist industry. katara she knows a hi david. she has been running a small hotel. he, if assess, he is. she's against the plans for a nuclear power plants. push the button. i concentrate on renewable energy sources like foldable tags out, wind and hydrogen. nuclear energy is all technology. i st. bennett from poland. it's a beautiful country here, and we can really use all of that. nature gives us lots of die in that folder. so if you can nominate as a way these ruins from the eighty's was supposed to be payments 1st new p a pallet town and then the 10 level does off destruction on the plans with scrapped. now opponents government is still seeing a new pay our offensive grow. you finished your project a nuclear power plant. so i just have to finish the reactor, but i'll do that in school activities. same as the reactors. the most important
12:43 am
part is that's where nuclear vision takes place, and that creates a huge amount of energy. you know, the full 1000000 euro pro nuclear campaign comprises posters, radio ads on tv commercials. now, 86 percent of opponents population is full. the government's plans and the post because that's great. we should have nuclear power. it's to clean as form of energy . besides the sun will next couple days or some other layer. power is the best solution in poland. we don't have any other energy source, so we should be protected. we should wait because we don't have a train workforce to run it. yeah. but it's a good source of energy product. i'm all for building nuclear power plants in poland. it's a good transitional solution to renewables, upsets up to 1000. unfortunately, we have to have nuclear energy to some of our tests. the produce government is planning small marcela pumps. at 7 locations,
12:44 am
they will be close to industrial centers to provide them with power for the growing energy needs. as well as in largest cities like more solar and crack of the responses in pennsylvania. there's growing interest in the industry for small modular reactors that provide steady emissions. free energy on your uh, now we uh will do. i think they'll provide a few 100 megawatts that keep locals and industry will benefit from it to most of the most of its practice. and you then them to move in a key. and then the big reason, the polls to at least support you clear energy is that many feel it's the only way of quickly achieving a c, o 2 free energy transition. water is an increasing leaky scares resource in many parts of the world. that's why we're seeing many innovative solutions to talk with shortages, most of which are also being adapted to the needs of various populations across the
12:45 am
world. and one would all have been tried and tested. i'm sure you'll be left inspired by the innovation and the next report. let's take a look as exacerbated an ongoing crisis in the us water gas city, water shortage has become a never ending issue with an approaching global war, causes the liquid, fresh water is not the future problem. half of the global population experience is what the scarcity of doing, at least some parts of the over consumption. he thinks that it, in fact, water management training, all ground water, rivers, and lakes, was white. by the middle of the century, every 2nd country was struggling with limited access to water. to tech of this problem, we need to manage all what's a better. we need to reuse it and figure out ways to use less of it. but that alone may not be enough. scientists think that we need to look beyond use it lots of sources like rainfall, snowfall river run of around for to frozen ice seats in the arctic stone is 70
12:46 am
percent of all fresh water resources globally. thousands of square kilometres of ice breaks, falls as ice books every year at the males into the ocean. fresh water that is wasted beauty such has demonstrated that this. busy opportunity that supported prevention start printing water from the northern hemisphere via defendant water to those 80 yards via the need this month. so it can be as easy to scientist at the united nation. so university and also have to both unconventional water resources from a technological point of view. i spoke to already told today, ships from the oil and gas industry up pulling small chunks away from the drilling platform. to provide a city like cape town with fresh water for roughly 10 weeks. we need some think a lot bigger than ice mountain wing around a 125000000 tons. in comparison,
12:47 am
a large cargo vessel weighs around 200000 tons. and instead of pulling it just a few 100 meters, it would have to be checked thousands of kilometers. it's a huge fetes that's computer simulations from 2011. have shown that this is possible. well, theoretically, it's still a long way from luxury 3 d animation to reality one, emerald, to company the national advisor of euro s pets and to the technology to eventually put it off. but they select the funding to start the pilot face. for now, the eyes book idea is proving too big and fee to solve today's problems. so let's look to something lights up, something that can be found pretty much everywhere. like there. you know how in the morning everything is covered with a small droplets. guess what? these what before? exactly how to fuck humidity and it becomes liquid when it cools down. that's why i called glass of beer. this wet on the outside, even though no
12:48 am
d a spilled over nature. this usually happens in the evening and at night when the temperature is dropped and it's possible to take advantage of this phenomenon and have as this humidity. so fog harvest team has been practiced by indigenous people on virtually every confident this is rebecca funnel. she's a consultant and research at one of the most successful fuck harvesting operations globally. you've got some kind of material. this one is nice and 3 d 2 got a lot of physical surface for the water to get stuck on. and then as far as passes through, it's just the cloud, you can kind of see the spray coming through in front of the other, bigger net. and then it gets caught on this not put into practice. it looks like this on the edge of the semi area, i bump from region to morocco. there's very little rain. but for 6 months, a sick folk hangs over the region. in this fog passes 2700 square meters of mesh
12:49 am
which makes it the largest for canvassing operation and that was for condensers and trips into large underground deposits from where it is distributed via pipes to people's homes. the nets collected on 35000 feet is of water every day, which fulfills the needs of more than 1000 people. and it's even used to what the crops today, the big folk harvesting operations and cheating morocco gonna. they would try a seal in south africa. but the potential is much bigger. this suitable size, almost everywhere. a 40 square meter on that. the deal is about $200.00 pages, but they costs roughly $1.00 was in the $500.00. so it says the communities that would benefit the most from this particular technology are also those who were kind of most marginalized within countries. so getting the attention there and the kind of start up capital where it needs to be is an uphill battle. although capital is needed for ca, this thing is fairly cheap and scalable and a great solution for people living in remote areas. but it's not an option for big
12:50 am
cities. there's simply not enough bulk and cities need more water than that's can catch all up solution does not seem very crazy at 1st. but what's crazy is the amount of water we could safe by implementing it. i think pipes are the reason we lose nearly 30 percent of all fresh water globally bits of staggering 346000000000 leaders a day. to put that in perspective, that's 30 times more than german households consume for a day or more than 2000000000 desktops. a yeah, perfectly good water. we could use to drink, wash, clean, grow food, fits just being wasted. my son called me the full space, so we'll basically thomas, that was the time. this is lauren guy. he co founded the tech stuff. a sterile lum us is a bit off and on the statements us throughout the checks, lots of weeks, from space. they make satellite images with the help of microwaves. the microwaves
12:51 am
are reflected differently depending on which medium they hit, fall space we can get within the sci fi, underneath the us slide into the soil, into the pipes the am. so i'll go things actually gain linking what we can say form space, even the water on this bottom for like for example, based on that, that was from rain or something else. they're looking for the composition of the water. if it's drinking water, they assume it's a leak and mostly there, right? the result. so take this, every adult on this met, for example, is a leak. and here to at least of over a 120 meters per minute detected in proud to italy employed in bangkok or in chinese cities. estero sells those maps to utilities globally. so they know where to fix makes and save money. locating leaks is only the 1st step in a long process, fixing one the, my trip new ones, because it can affect the pressure within the pipe,
12:52 am
improving and renewing pipes and infrastructure is key to saving water. and then every $40000000000.00 that, that going down the drain globally do owns here. how do you like your fluid? i like mind spicy. and apparently i'm part of a global trend. the demand for spices is booming. the global spice market is projected to grow 37 percent this year, making it worth a whopping $44000000000.00 euros. and the trend is expected to continue over the coming years. spices can be as expensive as cards, vanilla cost 2000 euros per kilo, and stuff. one is even costly or 14000 zeros a kilo, but nothing compares to i g type i p top a peruvian surely that sells for 24000 euros. a kilo beast outgoing prices on scaring off customers is not great in marble runs, but
12:53 am
a treat for the eyes and the tongues spices. the market. this booming and dozens of new companies that's profiting like ok. so heinrich phones, it's top selling blend goes well with german bread. that's a little something to spice, some feet, otherwise land taste, butter. as it uh, booms. i think we're seeing a boom because of the movement towards healthy your home cooking. and that's cool. with that, but there are a few other factors like the trends towards vegetarian food. one tends to be just extreme budgetary news often require more suffices. different spices involve unbelievable exit. people are also traveling more so there's more global trade, more personal exchanges between people. i've talked to
12:54 am
a 160 and that means the way we eat is becoming more diverse. chris, you've had a few said you got to start up is located in the old warehouse district of hamburg . the german ford city is the world's 3rd most important trading center for spices after singapore and new york. these young slice farmers from uganda are visiting hamburg their association, sent them here to get to know their marcus better. so are they also benefiting from the boom? hub, see because i needs this kid. yeah, i, i know if i stayed after the prices would be much more because now, so based on demand subsidized, if you cannot separate, i too much of it. you kinda know how much more price is most of this finds is growing in the world, come from small farmers like this one in pennsylvania is joined horses with other
12:55 am
farmers to be able to sell his clothes for higher prices. going it alone usually means having middleman dictate the price is true craftsmanship for a new spice blend at another industry. new comer in hamburg, oriental spices like human are being added since they are especially popular right now. the ingredients come from farmers and developing countries who are paid fairly . that's part of the concept. so home, you know, kind of as high as, who have a direct connection to the plantation on the farm. is that before placing an order, i take time to consider. what's the philosophy on how important is it to them to maintain a fast supply chain from paying the work? cuz all the way to how the actual product is growing. i know how to feel the town on this. this will be to expose the product for a company also offers tastings that are attracting premium customers. mostly young people who are willing to pay 18 year olds for
12:56 am
a blend and are always on the lookout for something new. hot stuff, and it and cheap. that brings us to the end of today's edition of made. thank you so much for watching. and to join us again next time until then from me and the entire team here in berlin is good by and take care of
