on 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 comes on production of arable land and buy of 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 and even a lower calm talk i think was as so why is it so hard to change the status quo? oh, 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 a and many american cities, it's actually illegal to build anything other than single family homes and certain places. in san jose, california, for example, 94 percent of residential land zone for single family houses in los angeles. it's 75 percent. almost half of jakarta is still zone for low rise buildings. the

majority of which are single family homes. most of bangkok was owned in a way that pushed housing to the outskirts of the city in the us, the government and banks shape cities by excluding non wide populations from mortgages and a practice called red lining, which persists to this day. redlining basically says will will guarantee mortgages in certain areas based on who is there. basically if the error is predominately african american, then we're going to rate this neighborhood and we're going to downgrade it and consider it red and not guarantee mortgages here. but then in others where they were, the question strongly white, they would guarantee the mortgages. similar exclusionary zoning already existed in cities like the highest bird taca in jakarta. as the legacies of colonialism, creating funds and siloed neighborhoods, ad zoning often creates housing scarcity, which today is pushing city runs to an affordable rate over the world. so fixing zoning laws would be huge, step towards more equitable housing, minneapolis, minnesota. i got rid of single family zoning in 2018, for example,

and san francisco is also planning on it. but we can't just blame zone in full stop . a lot of plan or say what's needed is to build up in this in the middle. this means other types of single family housing structure. it's like duplexes and townhouses that support walkable communities with local retail and public transportation. as every planner will tell you, housing is about so much more than just houses. is about improving public transportation, investing in schools and developing under used urban areas to increase density. we also have to examine our consumerism and actually confront systems of oppression that sustained the interest of those in power at the cost of the marginalized. if you could take um, so full difference and you know, and just as out of the equation, it would be a lot easier to reach consensus on what we have to do. the city state of singapore, which was a british colony for a 144 years, is often touted as a golden child of urban planning. over 80 percent of the population was in mostly

vertical public housing with di, centralized neighborhoods designed for pedestrians and supported by mass transit. if you want to buy a car, you'll have to pay some huge taxes, so that discourages auto ownership. that single part is a small city state island. the government owns and 90 percent of its lands. and all these measures happens because of richard state regulation. every place has its own particular history and culture, geography and demographics. so what makes a good house is a really relative definition, and one that's always evolving the close battery. there are yet another choice that we made with the big carbon footprint. a whopping 10 percent of the total global carbon emissions come from the fashion industry. where is the fabric drone? how is it growing? who is making these clothes? these are all concerns that the fashion brand in indonesia is trying to address. whereas the price that work for, and that's going to turn away money in village is depressing. a new job. while

taking care of our farm, i'm my name is janice on and i'm the father n c o. off. not only do we want to change how close are made, we actually want to change also how it's being grown. everything is really difficult. we use social media and love to live in order to reach consumers on the global level. really, it's about clearly and simplifying the process, such that people can get certain motional attachments as well. the process behind cloud, away from all of this coming calls away from this dig fueling that really hurt out in the barn. and so actually healing the point my background actually has nothing to do about fashion. i'm on development economist and my work took me through religious across in asia, and there for the 1st time i saw how are clothes are made by women. when

i was in the villages, i start realizing that there are women who flies are impacted by our everyday choice of what we wear. and i realized that i wanted to then build a bridge between people all around the world to care about this issue to care about where to close, come from. with the very women will actually make it very, very month to the plan that are used to make everything we make all the colors has actually made a plan of indigenous indonesia knowledge that has to exist through generation. but if lost in the pursuit of lowering the cost of fashion, we have to really work very hard to make sure there is enough awareness and therefore the man for all these products. basically, i'm actually very happy because we manage to ship our product to now over 30

country and that managed to sustain all the field work that we do on the village level. we're not another fashion run. we're not another business, but we're a model for change. we're here to show that there is a different way that you as a business can grow, you can be successful. but at the same time also making sure that every choice literally empowers those will. previously these i have a choice we have managed to in the past 6 years, bill. wonderful. well, 1st farm clauses, fashion supply chain. and our hope is actually to really significantly scale this. so our goal is that within the next 5 years, we want to scale this $1000.00 hector's. scattering the slides is of course, i'll call it intensive activity. but there is

a french inventor who is using solar panels to make this more sustainable. it's my dream to travel as far as i want without polluting our plant. and i feel like we're on our way there. it's wonderful. the shop up to you was a ne, has been in the air for 5 hours, and he's covered 220. can nominate his to us as a is on the 15th leg of he's able to of defaults. he's landing in go, yay! in the south of the country, the tourist intended to promote his project, wings for the planet. what a flight. back edward, the adventurer and engineer quits his job to focus exclusively on his solar pilot

glide to wherever he goes. his invention, tools curious under his who want to know how it works, mike, lighter takes off on its own with his propeller. it may seem small, but it's a meter across in diameter. it's powered by batteries and they're charged by the solar cells on the wings. not only, but this is not much of it. for some reason. does of course look through it was the last been 3 years looking on the glider and put all his savings into the price of time. and of course when they come from feeling i'm impressed. single, it's very smooth. he completely integrated the solar cells into the wings. it was some children younger. i'm an engineer and pilot and i have an idea how much work went into this. it's fantastic and it makes you dream of a dream of climate forensic flight without a missing a single gram of c o. 2 is already happening. so you can fly off the wall

because his preparing for the next leg of the to the blow from what it says. oh, the swell either i'll fly to move to the 2 peaks on new or overflow. best probably not the engineering, that's nature and technology. he used to work designing underwater robots, ones near the south polk he watched a young albatross in flight, leaving the business albatrosses in flight are fabulous. some of the news they inspired me. as i said, i wanted to fly like them one day. the concern of many and the aeronautics industry think he's not the most. it is convinced even jumbo jets will one day fly power slide to sunny loan emission, free zip. good morning. of course, it's hard to imagine a boeing or air bus with solar cells. but modern photo voltaic cells harness just 20 percent of the energy in 10 to 20 years ago. it might be 40 or 60 percent on performance. but that's good lanes might be traveling just 400 kilometers an hour

instead of $800.00. but that's enough for domestic flight. i suppose my no major city of this was i feel during takeoff ingle yates lessons a demonstrates his invention. conventional light is need wins or a motorized pertain to stock and the loss of energy. but because the name makes it happen to be it on his own, the where my toyota falls is almost over. vision pioneer is already planning his tour of europe to get even more people on board with the dream of flying with the power of the sun. if we could, for a little more talked into what we do, i'm calling to see pick and choose sustainable, tentative. we will realize that plenty of them are available and that'd be good to

only make a difference. but you would let me know what was your take away from today's episode. you can email us or reach out to me directly on vita, i will see you next week until then take care goodbye. know us gosh, the
