comes to flashes, our design is just our tools, our tools to gauge everything to be taught. that's the message from the younger man design in eco africa. what secrets lie behind being discovered new adventures and 360 degrees. and explore fascinating world heritage sites dw world heritage 360 yeah. now the we all know that it is important to make a good impression on the close issues

a lot about what sort of positive you are. i am under 3 know do and today on equal off because we're going to be looking at the topic, but he's very close to my house function and to mine, to sandra as he can see. so we've been looking into what happens to all the use of fluids, especially the thousands of phones. so ship flush and that's of thrown away each week. i am truth lives as this is what else we've got for you today. all the show. the read discovery of the miracle plans can ask the fossil tell role material a surprising solution to the waste from to the shows fully oil hobbits and the high tech ways, in which salt oper guys protected? hundreds of shots species. recycling clouds is big business. as most people

get used to changing the loop, often. one problem with these cheap fost flushing is that it is often so poorly made that it cannot be reused. what takes the trade desk and gone off, but millions of old clothes, impulsive from lily. western countries are often more rock. some reaches almost top, gets thrown away, which is clogging off the land, feeds the cheese and the ocean. we met some people who are finding ways to stop that populates of these sessions from the day in capital a young ovens the above. oh, mega hit you can look good. i'm take responsibility. that's the message from across young design is like in the softball field. and the idea behind the non profit enables the revivals. yeah, you're at football. and so i made that does the voice, and our design is just our,

to our tool to engage every individual you know, every global citizen to, to wake up as and see and question everything about the cost that we, with all the things that we have quite a few mean as a studio and across the 2 men mix different materials and 3 and up governments to create something new use. so it's that arrives and gone out by the ton from the us, europe and asia, our source of inspiration. as we all know, what yours use, including on, on by to credible most of them, and then the have a very negative impact on the environment when it's being dispos. so we are trying to deconstruct the idea of what ways to really means when he comes to test when he comes to flashing. and this is where the men from the revival source they materials

come from onto the biggest market for 2nd hand clothing and gonna end across west africa. here's some $30000.00 trade is by source and re sell around 1000 tons of clothing each year. more than 15000000 items change hands each week though due to the poor quality, roughly half of them end up in the trash. we get the london winds, the china, why the flu? i want that kind of that was and that we get a grease. we get a, we get b as not all that good here. so you open, it's not over the, you get rocks that's given rise to flourishing up selecting business, intensive on so many text i'll mention still try to find, take is within the pharmacy with some local initiatives as a dash of color to faded fabrics to attempt to potential bias in

china is workshops all those i used to make new ones as cheap, so everything becomes more available around the globe. the mountains of secondhand tech styles keep growing and gone to what stops as fast. fashion soon winds up here, often strewn on the beaches and embassy. and because most synthetic 5 is being used in governments, the materials with the chemical residues may link it here for centuries. it's a threat that worries session activist and environmental research a harriet and jumping. i am concerned about the environment. i'm concerned about everybody within the 2nd hun business supply chain because fast question and 2nd hungry honey hans. so yeah, i guess and it's for you to add up our employee. so these are just the things that

we should stop seeing a lot more attention to, and start consciously developing business more tools that actually puts pressure less pressure on them. but she says, we really need to get to the roots of the problem. the donnas quality controls the 2nd hand closing impulse are an urgent need to know everyone sees con, some on to as if it have for this hosting all through all materials. so as you holding their brands, the 1st question, burns accountable in looking at it's looking at the big picture of how i mean the regulations could actually contribute to national associates and they'll make developments to dates and gone to it's been mainly active as office like my co guy who's given much thoughts to how to use the closing waste that's already in the country. i saw it as

a business around the people i know buying. so i took it upon myself to also buy them to create my pieces. i'm not totally for, for they beauty. i'm also a regional awareness for the environment because these are some of the, um, there might you is that you finding that in their beaches, us waste and visual god got us to. so i'm also creating our awareness for people to be eco friendly, cheap, so this can even be transformed into ok. it's one of the creative ways of dealing with the waste from foss. fashion impuls please biodegradable fabrics such as cotton and will, will eventually decompose. but these days the most used fabric is pulling the stuff

which has surround, doesn't waste on these hots to recycle. you can burn it, which is not good or scientist. anything that hoping you can find not throw chemical compounds that can each of the plastic gloves and i turn it into something really usable. again. in this laboratory, in the british coastal city of portsmouth, researchers are deep freezing articles of clothing. the experiments with liquid nitrogen and polyester shirts are being conducted to deal with an ever worsening problem. obviously, with the growing population is a growing demand for the tech styles. and we have a, a budgeting, waste problem with those tech styles when they reach their end of life. so we, we very rapidly need, uh, solutions to, to deal with the recycling issue. worldwide. consumers are turning to fast trash and close manufactured at low cost and with

a high turnover. a cherished material polyester, this clothing fiber accounts for 60 percent of what we, where it's a fast trying, durable and above all cheap fabrics, making it very popular in the fashion, moving clothing industry, but fast fashion clothes are discarded by the tongue in the landfills like this one in kenya, and polyester, a synthetic fiber is practically impossible to recycle. but the scientists and portsmouth are harnessing the power of enzymes. so we have a engineer at enzymes as to be capable of tackling the poly in a single use. plastic buffalo such as this one here, and what we want to do is to see whether the enzymes that can break down these prostate buckles are also able to break down the polyester in fabric such as this. once throws it into liquid nitrogen,

the material is ground into tiny bits. next, those particles are placed in a bio reactor where they're mixed with the enzymes. so we can think of an enzyme is like, almost like a power says. so when we take our plastic x, i just saw a very long string of different molecules. and then we use our ends on this to cut that string in specific places. so when we do that at the end of the reaction, we have like the sink of different parts of the plastic, which we condense or separate austin to different things. and then we can react size 3, the make a new plastic, or they can be used in other chemical industries. the researchers in portsmouth have already identified more than 70 enzymes. that can breakdown polyester of development that will hopefully lead to more sustainability in the clothing industry.

let's move now to overall material that is used in many different ways and goes by many names and kind of these are the best noon we are talking about a plant which has been used any eagles and form for hundreds of years for textiles, pep, pub, maybe seen energy an oil bought the rise of the drug trade caused him to be demonized and criminalized, bought dues to tune these miracle plant is making a comeback. and that has also its benefits for the environment. a close by many names. 10 kind of best buy the one that we got and then just as diverse it as names are, it's uses. we made our take styles, pay per medicine, energy, oil all the time until we start to demonizing and criminalizing.

we've hammered it down into uh is humanities has the this is an illegal and massive leave that plans have cultivation start to 12000 to use a going china and from their human submitted every bit say they're used highly durable him for data ropes and sales. so they took the seats with them everywhere because of the root. hemp of the 2nd most used materials on the ships. it's flowers have been used as medicine for thousands of years, as well as in spiritual practices or just simply for pleasure. but then came to that, okay, just for kind of us new technologies were invented for cutting, which boosted supplies of fiber trees, replace 10 bits of paper source and the date, their sales enrolled. there may be petroleum based synthetics. now the make offense is making a comeback. scientists as slowly discovering that it seizes can go

valid beyond what do they have known so far and would help us clean up a lot of industries. the big one is construction. the building and housing industrial produce has almost 40 percent of all carbon dioxide emissions. might have changed at the company is already in use as an installation metrics. but now more and more sustainable construction companies use the template create to build the walls and floors to like this 12th floor building, maybe 10 paintings. how the homepage is basically a mixture of hem shows and line line pick defies to him. so it doesn't degrade or break it this life, but strong. it is bringing the boat. so it regulates moisture in temperature. but that means lower energy builds normal and basic in non toxic environment. it is fire resistance and due to its flexibility in which sense major credit gets

installation properties that also have to check it where it's it's heat sound and humidity installation. and after it's lifetime m creve can be reused as fertilizer, as it does talk to the organic piece, moles nothing to produce less carbon then concrete months. they're actually carbon negative. that means have good stores more c o 2, then it through cars to make and transport. that is due to hands, carbon storage capacity. remember fiber and installation stores on the net base. more than 50 kilograms of carbon dioxide burn cubic meter of insulation for your reference to production of plausible or ruffled insulation, emits over 250 kilograms of carbon dioxide. but bill particularly is in most countries construction regulations that are very straight and introducing the new concept for mateo can take use of testing and bureaucracy is at the

beginning of federal and in many countries. we need to give it a new chance and start putting all these regulations on him. we need to free this up entirely for the industries to really need for him. can also help to reduce deforestation until the late 19th century. most paper was made of hemp of the bible's and even the dress of the u. s. declaration of independence and everything on him, but to day papers made from trays. and it is one of the biggest drivers of deforestation every year. village forest, the size of particles. 15 percent of all trees be chopped down are used to make paper. global demand is expect the least doubled. and in some cases, almost triple violet losing the forest. some companies are more willing to reintroduce temp into the paper production. dixtel industry a so they've been holding grill, the gymnast leak.
