vent and hope about visions and the people behind them, the inverting catastrophe. climate change, the 45 minutes on dw, the what there's to us that's why we listen to their stories. reporter every weekend on d. w, the a fast growth and maximum profit. the traditional path to prosperity, but now skeptical voices are growing louder. and one, obviously at some point i got the feeling that the return was the top priority and

anything else was very far behind. i just didn't want to be part of that anymore. is being in the black, the only measure of success. what about investments, but also do some good with every euro. every german investor who invested in a project can save c o 255, investing money differently, spending money differently. success isn't to be measured in profit alone, but also in its positive effect on society. the top down in closed economy is not right for us. and we have bigger goals than that. and we're going to roll up our sleeves. how might it look? this new idea of prosperity, the

are the only ones in what all young canes look good. and also here this for the send the stuff where it's good that super and it all tastes good to the guns. didn't really pump ones are down here. this is the juiciest one or i think i have to eat and now you have to eat them yourself. brothers, cloth and andreas, and hang them on have a mission, fruit and vegetables from their farm should taste good and do good at the same time . at their family farmingville a bad s and in the district of hook star, it's not just about financial gain. they are more concerned with other values. nature conservation for example. it's why they rely on organic farming. and they work closely with the regional partners, voiding the scale and that's what we want is all the special closeness in cooperation with the regional food producers. we also supply with our fruit pushed in effect, a profitable business, which also benefit society and the environment isn't just the hangman's objective.

it's also the goal of the economy for the common good. the idea originated in austria and 2010. now more and more companies in germany and around the world are being certified under the common good economy. like the ang amends. yeah. if you want me to combine, would it be done? yes, we've drawn up a common good balance shooting. this is new for the company we have to do. we can now make the values which we've developed and lived over the years is transparent to our customers for the or to anyone who's interested into into seeing the common good balance sheet shows how well a company promotes the common good across all areas of the business the hangman's not only grow raspberries, strawberries, and other fruits and vegetables. they also sell their own products along with that of other organic farms. so they supply regional shops and so at local markets, the julia anchorman, andreas his daughter,

manages the direct marketing. and that's why i know somebody's, our own tomatoes from our greenhouse is all it really says having time for customers to offer detailed information on the products. it's all part of the philosophy of a common good enterprise. i'm at are close to eula, angle months are it's for the societies. i think it's great this customer contact talk. there's a special atmosphere. we came ok of the customers take time and enjoy the experience on come get us some on call. openness and transparency are not only important for customers and a common good enterprise, but also for employees. they should also have a say the i am in staff meet in quality circle to discuss important topics. and everyone has a seat at the table and the cutting volume volume. but how can we and how should we define a precise aflac bone?

perhaps we could build a processing plant as clinton that it could be cold storage facilities, professional who's a lead. the current issue is how to expand a new site the by the bosses could just make the decision and say, here's how it is now, do with it a lot. so it's a very positive thing to be developing it together. i'm going to good people who have a say are more motivated and the whole company benefits from that. with other farmers . the monuments rely on cooperation rather than competition. the close and julia and meet the hair decker on family. the red current harvest is about to begin . the 2 families work together. the hair decor hoff 10 to the berries, while the ang amends take care of the sale of you. but what about the 2 systems that will the, should the content to be ok? how some of us? yes, of course, plus the haired take are ha, family has only recently switch to organic farm exist in the moment. this group are

going to take, you know, transition phase either being single, did live responsible for the whole business alone was that anything is, and i'm not the youngest day though, i'm about to do what we're doing together now to raise that kind of money. i would have needed to find someone who gave me the benefit of the doubt and then they'd be machines to buy all the packaging, code, storage and transport, equip, extra. it just wouldn't have been possible dining locations is, as they are currents are kept in the arguments of cold storage. your freedom to competent cynicism. we combine our services and skills, is that in my, in the joint operation and turns into an economically viable one. good chapters talk fee guy and i told the business success is important for common good enterprises, but there's much more the wellbeing of the companies they work with as important as their, their staff and customers and the businesses social environment including the people who benefit from the sustainable products, the common good balance sheet,

helping companies do good, but individuals can do good to read thinking business and investing differently. that's what's happening on a small scale in this apartment building stuff and, and theresa, how to want to put money aside for their children's future. step in an id specialist has been committed to climate protection for years for a long time. you searched in vain for environmentally friendly investments. tell us moving here. so on almost will be. i tried out all kinds of things. i started with savings plans, funds, and share see, but at some point i got the feeling that it wasn't right for me because that the return was the top priority and anything else was very far behind. i just didn't want to be part of that new model is i thought you might make investing money profitably and protecting the environment. at the same time, stephan had to us found what he was looking for on the internet in a project in kenya, there in rural areas and particular,

most people still coke on open fires and consume large amounts of charcoal. a canyon company has now developed a new type of cooker that used as less fuel vw stuff. less fuel is about is the address. what is burnt, which is great, of course is point and people are saving money the mentioned. so of course its optimal as not to the shop to mind. the couple put their money into the african company through the crowd funding platform, better invest, crowd investing a type of crowd funding allows many small investors to support a project such as more sustainable cookers. the better best manages these projects in frankfort and mine, alongside the traditional financial giants. yeah, and then yes. and the next point is, you probably will notice that i'm trying to come out as a manager, olga dickman is planning a trip to the stove company. she oversees the implementation of better west african

projects and has lived and worked in kenya for 4 years. all projects are chosen based on their positive effect or impact refinance. those usually that use not just fluid to say it reduces c o 2 emissions. and you have to consider that there are lots of people in kenya using these stairs. the 5, every stove sold contributes to c, o. 2, reduction of the 2 that are best was founded in 2012. the platform finance is sustainable projects all over the world. with many small contributions, even large projects can be financed. they have a large and we have the gray box which represents the total amount and needed for the project. and the blue gong shows where we are at the moment blower, but it moves to the right. and when we get to the far right, they've session with done and the project is funded. anger comes and comes into the doors on the script of funding stuff and how to send his wife have invested

a total of 4000 euros through better, best spread over 6 different projects. ideally they will receive up to 8 percent interest for them. investing in this way is ideal, is that the release quantity of course, gets good for the environment and the climate. so what an and last, but not least towards is also for your own while elizabeth and for your conscience . it's a great feeling to know that your money has invested. why so many good things and just hoping to do something good for people and the client. and when did chemo ask, what is the to olga dickman has arrived in kenya. the company burn is located in really rupe ne, if the capital nairobi, this is where they produce their innovative stove production managers, oliver malice, burger, and alan jo marissa, they explained the company in detail and how investors money is being spent.

the founder of the company is american. peter scott. at the weekly meetings all the techs and learned about the current state of production. god has been researching environmentally friendly stoves for developing countries. since the late ninety's, his motivation is simple, less firewood means fewer forest clear. let me really saving for us is the thing that drives me right. the last remaining rain for if you go to madagascar, people are cooking these 3 meals a day on traditional charcoal stoves, and it's destroying the force of madagascar. the fact that we're liquidating these like a truly important tropical rain forests just for cooking is banana. the stove can cut fuel consumption by nearly half. the company has already won several environmental awards for its concept. right, so this is, this is our main bound warehouse store are still here

the stove that already saved 6900000 tons of wood from being cleared. the burn needs new capital, crowd investing can provide people invest their money overall longer fixed period of time. with this capital, the company can expand. and at the end of the term, the investors get their capital back with interest. but it's not without risk. if a company goes bankrupt, the invested money is usually completely lost to protect against the experts, always recommended investing smaller amounts in different projects for and has already reached this crowd funding goal for its initial project with better best a win win for investors. and the company is now began a new crowd funding project to expand into even more african countries with

every euro. every german investor who invested in all projects can save c o 2, the investment support companies that reduce c o. 2 and you do some good with it and support the african companies each. coker can reduce c o 2 emissions by up to $2.00 tons per year, which is roughly the amount of c o 2, a german household produces annually for electricity and heating. in germany, an entire municipality is investing in the wellbeing of its citizens. don't use my dad's while you're here now for your 1st climate training. and my colleague here will give you a little introduction today and must push that. deana. bell man is a climate trainer. she was trained for one year by city council and how to make

munster households more climate friendly from cooking, the heating to shopping it to your own going to get to hand out like this one in a moment. this is the training so cold in that would be great if you could bring it with you to the next meeting. it's a kind of to do this. so i already my reminder that your request disappeared to this project is the 1st meeting. the participants are a mixed bunch of teacher, fatty and ram. coast expectations are high about 20. the expectation that i'll get my ass kicked a bit as the saying goes. and those things that i already know i can improve. i'll be more likely to finally do. do i have to introduce some kind of steel helms at 70? jenna bulk men is here to help. she passes on everything she has learned in her climate training to the participants. she works on a voluntary basis and the climate training is free for all. my gosh, all that knows a thing or 2 about how to achieve

a more climate friendly household. she owns 20 waste shops in munster, specializing in environmentally friendly alternatives to ordinary household items. and you know shampoo box which is really shampoo pressed into solid form the whole christmas thing you apply it to like so. and if he's life or small changes in the household with a big impact in a model experiment wants to residents, we're able to save around $2.00 tons of c o 2 per household in one year through climate training extrapolated to all households in the city that would be the annual c o 2 emissions of around a $170000.00 cars. this is not finished, thus we've got to do something. next, we come to night climate change, animals and something just it has to be done. that's result. and it makes sense to the local authority has to take the range of it and because they're in a position to reach a lot of different people, guns can see to proceed and a pencil and supervisee all, all the threads of the climate training come together. here in the coordination

office for climate and energy for clint, go for sure. okay, okay, let's move to the point. the state of the projects climate train is let me know. contain of munster, has been a pioneer in municipal climate protection for decades and has received several awards for its ideas. mathias pack is ahead of clinical and he has big plans instead of municipal directives. he wants to encourage citizens to become active themselves through projects like climate training. he's doing the same with the cities, businesses, but couldn't be a muscle. what can you do to contribute to c, o 2 reduction of us? and how can you change production processes of ve cracking you save results is, are we provide advice on such topics and the companies are usually very grateful to because of course, they can't be expected to have this knowledge. and they completely unrelated and 2nd cabinet. busy for example, at this glass and mirror or company, it starts with a bit of detective work. energy consultants marshall student has examined

everything that consumes energy and considered what could be changed. you've taken a magnifying glass to the entire company from basel satisfy those, and from the base year 2014, we had about $9750.00 euro is an energy cost per unit here. and we're now at a constant 781-6000 off to one of us. that's a cost savings of almost 20 percent of the new pellet heating system. thanks the company almost 2000 euros a year and heating cost pellet instead of gas heating. just one example, the energy audit, which company boss and go naked mind had commissioned, identified one of the company's biggest energy gas alerts this table. it needs a lot of compressed air pressure. it comes from age generally,

so that we can move to gloss the surface. here nothing would work without a pressure on that this costs money was clear about the men city of the cost effective was $1.00 of our largest expenses that we weren't aware of. the mirrors and glass can be extremely heavy to move them, they are blown upward. and however slightly over the table. as a result of the audit, the machines are no longer controlled centrally, but can be switched on and off as needed. one of the many savings measures recommended by marcel steer with impressive results in um, so the costs have been reduced by 30 percent of the funding starting with over $11000.00 euros and electricity costs per year. and we're now at 7500 year olds when i don't know what else to hit the numbers, speak to themselves. young around 90 companies from monster have already opted for

the free initial consultation. all of them were able to save cash, but also c o 2, up to 20 tons per company. the city is on a new pass. turning the economy around for the common good is a state goal in some countries about a 1000 kilometers away to the northwest. for example in scotland. what, here's the flanagan and sharon and ross have set up in this small warehouse is part of a much wider change because in scotland, the economic system will fundamentally change in the future. according to government plan, the, the 2 women live in the glasgow suburb of lynnwood. decades ago. many people moved here to work in the small town. but the big companies closed down and people were left behind to improve life. in linwood,

a group of women set up their own foundation and ask residents what they want to keep a warranty of some, we also split at the could show that this will course, the high quality a purchase of certain sage, the voice of anderson, at that point in time, in language, it's a much insane to also slaves. you know, most of the shops of shots are over a period of the, you know, 15 years when it comes as a surprise area and on this and the social scales. and so people can struggle as long as people are watching people, but living on wind comes. and so it's difficult to, to manage jefferson. now the foundation runs the delivery service for fresh fruit and vegetables. they supply the neighborhoods where there are no shops anymore, is particularly welcomed by older resident finished to do it just the usual monday night. you have a nice day about the county. lisa scotland supports many such non profit

projects that benefits people and nature. they want the economy to be more than just profit oriented. the government aims to transition to what wellbeing, economy, and economy for the common good. to this end, they're promoting local investment, local jobs, and shorter supply chains. in linwood, they've got a lot of ideas on what can really help the community. one of the most important, a really good football pitch. yeah, that's the goal is to just go, i can't believe that. hey, yeah. what are you laughing in front of our toilet and your boss? a place for sports fans without the cost of an expensive fitness club? the women's foundation run the facility itself. i'm like a private sports club. the income flows right back into the project. at the same

so basically most age barely just as i talked to in the local pines. so if you spend 2 at most age, the money's comp shop. tidmore said he doesn't wish more sage, and it goes on to future in front of the development of the site. the women's initiative is already working on the next project. a new community center being built next door. the idea was born when the old community center had to close and the village lost its meeting place. planning took 10 years, and now it's about to open. there is even a theater hall for performances, for example, by the initiative supplier. the project received over 1500000 pounds and funding from the state. and i was in the front of the next comes from the scottish government of governors, a lot of funds and for the center for the, for that one of the same time. and for the same sort as male and just the reduction in funding for things i'm unable to apply to me. the plan is

to spread the concept of the wellbeing economy throughout the country. the political scientist, catherine tr, back from the organization, wellbeing economy alliance is working towards this in glasgow. an international project was launched in 2017 here at glasgow university. a group of academics and politicians from around the world huddled in this little room, talking about forming an alliance, a group, a partnership that has eventually become known as the wellbeing economy. governments, partnership. 5 countries have joined forces to align their economies with the common good. in addition to scotland, finland whales, iceland and new zealand has signed on. catherine has also been advising the lynnwood initiative for many years, this building,

but the work behind it. and that's the organization that people behind to just embody what a wellbeing and corner me is about. because it's paper same, this top down imposed economy is not right for us, and we have bigger goals than that. and we're going to roll up our sleeves. the new community center also has a small restaurant, so that local residents can eat well and cheaply. in addition, the cook trains young people, so they gain skills for the job market and we're just kicks it's circulating, just give some money here and then it sparks small businesses and it just says, yeah, beautiful, virtuous soccer. thank you for catherine. true back. such initiatives make the difference that business and politics have until now, barely considered. because in most countries, what they do for the community is to measure pain, white smile. if people are coming to a sense of what she makes kids pay full child setting to a friend on the sidelines having a coffee supporting someone who's maybe going through

a tough time. none of that will add add up to g d p. but all of that makes such a massive difference to the quality of the community and people's lives in the sense of whether they can co that's why this well being economy in scotland wants to measure not only finances in the future, but also whether children are growing up happily out, just society is education, environmental protection, and much more all this should be accounted for. interstate balance sheet. these new indicators will be another component of the scottish economy in the future. lynnwood has become a confident community with prospects, and the football pitch is just one part of that. me oh, i've seen. yeah. and the gail austin, kia and bella to players across and the at the football. and that alan kent, the money for good

causes instead of growth at any price, many small steps can make the difference on the way to a prospect already from which everyone can benefit the the

stopping climate change. that's what they're aiming for. we want to achieve re thinking and society assume about commitment and hope about visions and the people behind the verb and catastrophe. climate change,
