a country that faces many challenges engines, people are striving to create a sustainable future clever projects from europe and india, india on a d. w. what secrets lie behind being discovered new adventures and 360 degrees and explore fascinating world heritage sites. p w, world heritage 360 yeah. now the everything that we do have an impact on our environment from the clothes, the way to the place that we eat the on and even look all that's the drive. hello

and welcome. i'm saw the got the body and you are watching equal india. and if our choices have consequences, then there must also be sustainable. often it's why use and that's what this episode is all about. eating and play it's made out of leave is an is all in addition, but now we can only be found in very, very few places. because plastic, despite all it, see those has crept in every way. but people from who much of a dish and not indian mountain state are going back to their routes or it's a process that for them has become sole 2nd nature. it takes no time at all bible them and his wife and daughter are making, but those are eating plates out of door leaves the musical concern when we eat on plastic plates and some parts see these plates become split

deep. but when we use these thought plants that are naturally available, except it's phase, this also optimize push them in the out in the mountains of the much the, the, it's a hard spot of biodiversity. but nature here has long come under that. $13000.00 tons of plastic waves accumulates here every year and a decades to decompose in the landfills. in 2022, the state government imposed a band on single use plastics. since then, people hood has been turning to thor leaves as a substitute that especially in demand at community celebration, yard and the rest on him. i last conditions for thought or, or could bland on will affect. it feeds diag at home, at 40 cubes, off to, to 4000 feet. the city of georgia,

you go to the body. so its leaves are huge and smooth toys. and that's why because it's nice for making funds, and it's a multi purpose gone both along with food and fiber. it's a source of food and count those border or salt for dar to we medicine, et cetera. the traditional way of making. but those is laborious. 3 to 5 leaves are needed for one plate and their phone together with 10 them will need to. since 2016, a machine has made the work easier of them and so it's has rule financed it with donations from the business community. today about 20 families use the machine earning some 400000 group as a month the equivalent of around 200 and told to utilize both harmony. fuchs and she broke highlights is completed by the may be 2 police, but those have a shelf life of 3 to 5 days. light off the rich, the develop a fungus. when these leaves are dry press,

best goodness. the great advantage is the lose moisture and can be stored for 6 months. below it can restore for 6 months. the family of 35 we had always, but mom at the have been producing but those 4 generations now that also using the machine and with it can make up to 1000. but those are the. 2 and you just haven't, since we have gotten these machines and they've got me have profit doesn't know these plays have a better look. good. so the following, the bad on single use plastics. demand for a lot of plans has been booming when india was under british rule. the plan suffered for the use, the colonizers planted huge commotions bodies for the construction of the leaves and ships. all you how you, b dot is a creeper lines on other trees. so it would stop the growth of the commercial trees

when it would also then it was declared that a site to grow and was chopped and cut the bed on to look no longer searched her daughter could be clog pod couldn't come to the new began to find the commotion for us in his room line over 40 years ago. in 1984, the movement around the environment, the list succeeded in having human is fine and you can up this trees. removed and replaced by traditionally varieties. shortly afterwards, the planting of fine trees near villages was band he's convinced that the communities efforts have gone to boot it to the revival of the fast growing dawn in the market itself. imagine for these, but those have increasingly established themselves as a sustainable plastic alternative. showed in monday the states commotion,

hub creators say they sell at least $10000.00. but those every date, no wonder that many, that agent home that the use of dollars would become more widespread and established uh yeah, i'm gonna come on pretty lucky guess. so we have to look at how to increase its manufacturing and increase the planting of calling station gets people's what engage victoria is need to be given modern machines time, so that more but those are manufacturing for gaming. so this way too much of the will be able to be sustainable, okay, or provide for itself at least for me to consider them. hey, molly kemp and fi appraisal. and then now that's been difficult. the mountains make finding extremely hard work, but our tribes here and even underneath is valuable nitrogen into the soil, making it more for time. and the advantages don't stop the use still pity as it goes on slopes. it plays a very important role incoming,

so it will be about the bingo vine routine which leaves it plays an important role on slope intervene. we've got it, but it slows down the vein and for the reduces, sorry, it shouldn't been convicted. all part of part of the cytoplasm, simple fix, cutting young dog leaves. i'd go by the people up here in the mountains, seeds at eton like buses. the long branching twines of the blind are made into ropes, marble. i'm as happy that the leaves which you processes and says with his family are now more into mind than ever. and then they always really love frank. all our food source office that are not just poking or it is often discarded, which is not very good for the environment. back and watches this you squeaking noise could be used as viewers for august. well, seems like it can be done. video spends more than 15 years looking in other

people's restaurants kitchens before deciding to do it. today. she serves up popular fast food, fit in her own j night each week. now on the surgical on menu centers on bogus and you good. and on the deep side for me, so we need a daily supply of special, ideally, let me buy at, i'll be happy need to send the landlord and i looking for the long walk before opening of the jump, your best menu and refreshes the cooking for a step, she didn't always take as regularly as she does to day. i've used the way across india, restaurants and street vendors frequently. they use their cooking voice a block. this studies show produce deductions that goes inflammation. the key cause of diseases like obesity, heart disease, and diabetes. in 2019, in the us food safety take, you need to introduce rules to code the risks to people who adds to the environment

because the improper disposal of cooking or choke sewage systems and produce rivers, lakes and ground water. the agency also started the repub, was used clicking on initiative to collect and convert use squeaking or into biodiesel. people in that we know fox, one of the orange for us. i mean we now make money on the visa, the a dummy model start up. good. next pages used or unfreeze her 45, rubies. that is $0.50 for every liter. it's the 1st step in the oil is upside into any water. so they generally provide hotels of concern of actually for the used oil leak. then every vehicle for $10.00 to $15.00 days, depending on demand we've collected or if i looked at what is the light and bring it to offices, and then what would be, what the company collects close to 100000. it does a point 4 months. i'm brings it to pacific line such as this one. first it is

suppose to to remove particular motto. then the own quantity is tested. i'm find in the next step, i would say the funding and that's what this is where we store the useful thing going from here. we take it to the plant, what it's heated, it's 17 degrees celsius. this is the reactor. after that, it moves from circular dry over in the dry it again. he took up 225 degrees one at that state solvent and moisture. we've been removed and the result is cleared by with the water fall under the water video and the every container. oh boy, that is a step down. agreed on this done into biodiesel. can have got the use of petroleum diesel on at home from images. video has profited from the initiative on his now trying to persuade others industrial to join in of the work i have begun engaging,

hold in on those to sign up. dig around the you slowly though, i explained to them how it works and why it's a good idea to provide that restoring to this and we can help the environment local in the being. so the level sort of from the deep fry of bridges, restaurants, kitchens into a clean, a few weeks. the following week goes up. so i goes cooking or is micky invalids here in selma, not my entire family would think that i'm going to dallas in the true sense. the day i get married or the day i buy my own house. well, that's how important buying one's own house is a place to go to india for us. but like i said, of the start of the show on our choices have consequences. so what are the consequences of this life changing decisions and what are the items it's do we have before we jump in, what is a single family house?

generally speaking, we're talking about a detached house on its own piece of land that doesn't share walls, utilities, or entrances with any other residences. in the us, the post world war 2 period meet the house with a yard and a white picket fence and attainable middle class fantasy. millions of veterans had come home from the war and the government guarantee generous loans for white families to settle in to newly constructed houses outside city centers. almost overnight, suburbia was born. a half 1000000 homes sprang up around the country in 1946, nearly a 1000000 and 1947. the re housing boom for the government guarantee generous loans for white families. it was white families who settled in the suburbs which led other white families to also these city centers. some of that anti urban kind of instinct was actually tied to the, you know, the now the tail end of the great migration and movement of african americans from

the south into central cities. this is dr. hardley h. m a professor of urban planning. underneath all of this, it is all sitting on a bedrock of the unspoken racism and not wanting to move to the center of cities that created a really particular vicious cycle of this investment in cities. but then, you know, the investment and suburbs and expansion of the centers, this exit us of white people into suburbs was eventually dumped white flight. and since the public services are largely funded through property taxes deprived inner city communities of funding and social services. l squared at the end of the 2nd world war emerged independence for many countries in the global south. and a lot of those places modernize their cities based on western examples. even in places like thailand, which wasn't directly colonized the west, was still a benchmark for aspiration in more it's 80000 a day. i also got the pattern. i need you to sign off because house

is a dad to me how to motto to enter a is a is associated with just use research focuses on housing and thailand. like what in house are english. yeah. which julia? well actually and that's the single family house became a global trademark for wealth and belonging of the 140000000 housing units in the united states. roughly 85000000 are single family homes in croatia. almost 70 percent of the population was in detached houses. the highest percentage in europe . these numbers are terrifying for the planet. construction alone i'm, it's tons of c o 2 from the raw materials themselves to the transport as well as energy needed on site. the studies have shown that building a single family house and it's roughly $385.00 kilo's of c o 2 per square meter. not to mention the carbon footprint of all the things you need to put in the house and the equipment to maintain one, the garden,

the landscaping and the driveway. did you know that a lawnmower and it's as much emissions as a car. but really the list of damage goes on. production of arable land and bio diversity because of land use. and worst of all social inequality, does it make sense for a single person to live in 5000 square feet? when so many people live on, you know, so much less you think about kind of dense housing in manila or hong kong dot com in think was ash. so why is it so hard to change the status quote? well, for starters, housing is deeply political. zoning is the set of laws and urban planning that dictate how and can be used and what can be about where and who makes those laws. politicians, and many american cities. it's actually illegal to build anything other than single family homes in certain places. in san jose, california for example, 94 percent of residential land is known for a single family houses in los angeles. 75 percent. almost half of jakarta is still .
