wealthy industrial nations no longer need and the lightest textile waste gets stranded here. all about the final stuff in the global fashion industry. fast fashion. watch now on youtube. the looks delicious, but what's the environmental impact of our favorite foods? where are they produced? have they been transported halfway around the world? shouldn't we be eating food that stores locally? takes potato this. they are grown in europe, but for how much longer. what would happen if climate change put a stop to european potato production? we take a look at research initiatives, making potatoes fit for the future. this is more coming up on tomorrow today.

welcome to the show. the great thing is being placed in these tiny flowers. could they eventually produce new climate resistant varieties of potato? eustace boom is one of germany's biggest potato grow its work done in his greenhouse plays a big role in decisions about which spots make it onto the nations. plates 1st then determines what properties in new variety should have, such as heat tournaments or long shelf life. then to plants across point and aging the flowers of the mother, plant who's pulling in the fall into hundreds of thousands of seedlings produce new varieties, like the lesser or you'll receive a decades can go by that. due to the many selection steps and characteristics that

are protect, it needs to have content to use the cutoff. there are lots of considerations. a potato i buy in the supermarket should look fancy and it should be uniform. so you should have nice skin thinks it's your taste good, and there are other complex issues as well in the complexity. so we basically need to reinvent the potato and a specific formally of fitness. and the types of plans have lots of enemy, pest pathogens, and most importantly, the climate crisis could have situations didn't arise, light disasters that occurred in the mid 19th century. back then, especially in island, blind sled to corrupt failures and fun and driving integration. one reason why potatoes, what road in monona coaches and genetic diversity with low is that an issue today. ready a visit to the company cut off at home and in the town of boots and here potatoes suited wash. unpackaged supermarkets throughout gemini,

the long strong summit of potato farm is hauled in 2022. the harvest volume in the country style by over 5 percent. due to the climate, even though the overall acreage has increased, when ground water level strong invocation becomes a necessity and it's expensive. so far breeders have mostly succeeded in creating varieties that can come with less rainfall, but the environment is changing rapidly. as one of these and programs and not the least not to exceed much, a huge problem in the current climate. chrysler says both the high temperatures and the water shortage is called 1000, were in temperatures rise above 40 degrees. stocks collapse because we need to develop varieties that can handle that kind of heat and are also drought tolerant. mason so that those potatoes also have to be able to endure heavy rain or the occasional thunderstorm to could new genes saves the potato. this is the i p k like and this is the chief thing god has labels. here i have

a cultural scientist. money made a novel because it's samples from a 2000 potato varieties frozen in liquid nitrogen minus 196 degrees celsius. the genetic material comes from view ripple south america. it gives new potatoes tend to skins, or the live is high yields, the french fries and potato chips. and the crow tanks also still genes that make potato smoked around resistance. this goal is to put inside of the great potential in cryo preservation is that you can store this enormous diversity with all its resistance, tolerance and diversity in one place, compactly in a container. and if needed, make it available to breed is, and scientists or even private individuals. so that is one. so for fuel state and kind of before freezing the plants that propagated in test to money way to knock

a has developed to global strategy. so preserve potations diversity. she's working on behalf of the crop try an international organization seeking to preserve crop adversity. to do this novel travel to south america, to the particulars on festal, haines potatoes as being cultivated in the caribbean. and these, the 8000 years, even today through has the greatest potato diversity in the world. red ones, blue ones, some with very different taste. these are fee for how many here we just don't have that much diversity here in europe and that's fine. the 1st potatoes came to europe and 1562, and from then on potatoes with bread from that gene to you. 5 is which means this enormous diversity state in the and these has. so that's why these great treasure of genetic diversity is which we can maybe use to make potatoes resisted to diseases, pests drought, and heat stress us. this is tensile sign on. it's not just the genes of previous

cultivated potatoes, while south american specie saw, obviously being served for the future. will that mean a rejuvenation of the tuba? potato, james can be frozen in the crier bank for over a 100 years. but the potato is not an easy candidate to bring. the plant is what's called a tetra floyd. it has full set of chromosomes not just to like humans, whether designed traits and much from cross breeding is therefore much more a matter of luck. the potatoes complex t name wasn't even decoded until 2020 to the genes in the car event. our treasure troy for breed is cool, but the cryo bank simply offers the chance to conserve varieties and very specific genetics over the very long term. because today we don't necessarily know whether there's a resistance at one plant or another that might be needed 50 years down the road.

so here we can preserve the full genetic diversity of talking about the development of new varieties, could be accelerated, find methods like crispin, a kind of genetics visits that could be used to specific agents. the resistance beings from peruvian, cultivated on what potatoes into the varieties that could allow individual genes, the heat resistance, for example, to be combined for easily with blank resistance genes. the innovation within the field and greenhouse becoming increasingly important in the common climate crisis. say what ensure that all stays with cuba will continue to land on flights well into the future. the great thing about the types of farming is that it's climate friendly. the crop has a low carbon footprint, much lower than right? so for example, the trouble begins when but take says off processed se into fries. this can seems

a lot of energy and if the full carbon intensive it's time we saw it to pay more attention to the environmental impacts of what we what we eat directly impact global warming. global food production is responsible for 15 to 30 percent of all c o 2 emissions. experts don't completely agree on the number just yet. but even at 15 percent, that's a higher number than the emissions caused by all transport worldwide. this creates an immense strain on the climate every food has a different climate footprint, which changes, depending on how it's grown, produced, packaged and transported. this footprint is calculated a so called c o 2 equivalents, intended to standardize how different greenhouse gases effect the climate. in

addition to c o 2, there are other greenhouse gases and their impact varies greatly. when a greenhouse is heat at a warehouse is cool for a food product is transported. this causes c o 2 emissions. when cal is digest food, they produce mesa or c, h 4, which is then released into the environment as a greenhouse gas. me saying it's $28.00 times more powerful than c o 2. and there are over a 1000000000 calls worldwide. when fertilizer and the new or used in the soil, agriculture produces a 3rd problem at cas nitrous oxide or n 20, which leaks into the atmosphere. nitrous oxide is 12 times worse for the climate than me say, and 300 times worse than c o 2. when combined, all these greenhouse gas emissions are called c o 2 equivalence,

abbreviated as c o 2 e industrial meet production is bad for the climate, and that's driving demand for alternative plant based sources of protein. for example, the june such as chick periods. these can also cope well with climate change because it's a crop that doesn't need much water. but farmers in germany are still working out how to ensure conditions are just right for check p cultivation. these farm is preparing check the seats, the sewing since the palms is not native to central european soils. the menu only adding specific bacteria that help pick caption nitrogen and reduce the need for fuss and lies in the process. the form is who as simple measure will allow them to grow most sustainable protein rich plants from the lagoon family. by the 20th,

must be a couple of them with crops like broad beams ortiz, which are native here. the bacteria are already present in massage oil, but with soy beans and check the the bacterial strain isn't there yet to see that between them is like you stand out in the plot, weld the being able to produce that and fuss, eliza with the 8 of those special bacteria, that's why in europe krupps like keys and beans will lumina favorites, with farmers, because growing them actively improve soil policy, rather than depleting it so of nutrients. so the chip piece of ground without also official fertilizes. and if all goes well, the farm is can also do without also official irrigation. the check p plans evolved and dr. middle eastern climates and can get by with little rain for the ones the often we try to plant them around 2 and a half centimeters, deep and voice starting to get the germination process going. but the advantage of this legume is that it loved drysdale royalties at 12 and leaving chick piece and

not grown, often here in germany, but that could change in the future. ju, just human and cheese climate change, which is causing halter and dryer. whether there's an image, legal, main, olson, d, via, we're looking for like germs that we can easily more catch it and ones that are more acute and drop resistance and broad beans or keys. that's why we decided on the chick page. it wasn't good. it's got a lot of uses and it's nutritious and this and alex is a little this quote. the next top list is already sprouting. will tell you to load the surface so we can already see the 1st rives in multi. it's calculating as a corrupt scientist. what does it mean northern lights? so we want to find out if legumes can help make on agriculture more sustainable and adaptable to climate change. and we also want to see whether or not they can make it to affect less extreme bias was a sort of climate protection if you, well,

that's pretty much what's in fact, thanks to the bacteria on that root nodules, chick peas and all the games contribute. so much nitrogen to the soil that even the next pond square and on that field benefit, that means future corrupts could meet little to know also official 1st, eliza legumes, the army grew known about 2 percent of german crop land in recent decades. cone, grain and rate seed has become so widespread that many lagoons are imported solely beaten. some particular that's little mind if there's one that was tough for me. i'd love to see a so establish that like use are formed on 10 percent of the airable land here. and it does all the if it's economically viable for the farmers and there's a market for and upsets neck to get in real wanda, for example. the beans are grown on a large scale because they're a stable for that's used in many dishes there and making soil for them easy to find . but marketing is still praising a challenge,

the band hops on them of its. he's still trying to sell the organic chick piece from his best 3 years of farming and called, and i think that's like it's, it is not easy to sell this stuff right now. the price still isn't quite what we need it to be to break even. but we know that it's pioneering work. yeah. why? it's uh, the system to all, many vague not is also something of a pioneer. a few years ago she found it and checked piece next company in leipzig. she says she's glad to have found the climate friendly business model. mission the all that came up on the climate change of the lease, me feeling helpless as the old you as a here is. oh, for the everything is going to be a new really get any specific ideas, the solution of homestead and then also concrete, the concept. so wanted to have my fun something with my business floor, i feel confident was that i'm on the right. oh, okay. that's on the promotion, a group of times that has the potential council that climate change at the fulton sales have been to my lender and digging. so the next batch of crunchy climate

friendly chick peas is on its way to a big german supermarket chain. if demand keeps increasing, it will in turn, help pharma sustainably transform that feels if you've never tried them, that delicious and us, we just found out chicopee cultivation requires very little irrigation. that's a major bonus because worldwide agriculture accounts the 2 thirds of all fresh for to use. and in some places, drinking was it is in short supply, including and you're a why, which is currently going through. it's west drowsing over a 100 years or in southern europe, which is seeing rankled high temperatures. both his gas achieved there and other places is a growing threat. even the swiss of starting to protect that will sure sofas bases of water reservoir in the village. when grand quotes it begins to rent, no,

it fills up again, not to i suppose that and all of the shilling to see research in grandma to this been a shortage of it in this region for decades. aquifers like these could help replenish supply, enjoy areas, positions, daughter who so we definitely need to anticipate bottlenecks. we're already dealing with those. now let's say it's, it's a today occurred during the hot or summer months states civil. it happens where ground water is not readily available. that it's slowly growing more scarce. switzerland in general, has enough ground water because it's wrecking to the website is by slow and rain. when it runs low, rid of all take and make up the show for us that this river does impacts to make it fit for use middle water. it gets this pumped into a startling basin where it's passed through gravel filters from this. it drains into what's called a re challenge base and then subsequently seeps through the filtering sun into the

ground water in the future to mount the ground water will rise, especially during dry up here. we haven't the notes. there are of course, conflicting interest just sitting across that is ground water is used for many purposes as drinking water. for example, some entirely the loan about climate change will become more of an issue along with crop irrigation of the, especially when it comes to vegetable products, which are water intensive. because there's more ground water needs to be available, make the investments are free. because if they've asked city scenarios, reveal the us climate change progresses, demand for which is a good rise play as much as the food, especially in agriculture. but the example in spanish shows that even with all the official ways to top it up supplies of special to a no n v. as in the don't let me think that and sir

is the run off from the b is itself also during the dry summer months in some parts of the river, only transport 2 cubic meters to 2nd before the cool and then it's also so it's cool that limits how much can be pumped hourly between the fish and the river. also need water to us to be faxed it into the future water supply model of the snow for a completely different topic. food is about so much more than just getting in the true see need. they can also, they still nude, but delicious isn't always good for us. it's all about getting this science right. the fresh, crusty bread rolls. we wanted to know what makes a good role. and so are any of them actually housing?

we spoke to 3 food chemistry experts to get their opinion on the matter and visited baker, heidi slots on to see how she works. her magic. she's going to show us how to make bread rolls at home. we're trying to recipes, classic roles made from wheat flour, and as an alternative ones made with spells and dried bose look good, but is spelt and dry roll healthier than a classic one made with white flour. what are the experts say to the comp, say, roles made with wheat flour spelled so? riot was imagining a healthy or unhealthy, you know, don't want to send us. and the type of flour is more a matter of taste unless you have a specific food intolerance friday float minds 1st, secret from making excellent roles. that's what's known as a free furnace, which is that portion of dough that's made in advance. water, salt, and g. these are mixed with flour, the vehicle,

and then for tags, we need the pre image to give the time to grow and allows us to use very nice topic and then the choose all night. we test the big advantage that we don't have to add so much ease the next day that improves the aroma and makes the roles more digestible. down to the bottom portion, the east works overnight. it's enzymes breakdown the storage and the flower sugar, alcohol, assets, and c o 2 are released in the process that creates flavor. but this whole process takes time to continues the next day when more flour and water are added along with milk and honey, which also boost flavor while needing. i just don't mind as a mixture of seeds to this felt and dried out, including sunflower. so this gives the doe

a more crunchy texture. during meeting the mixture can't be allowed to get to warm . the ideal temperature is 24 to 26 degrees celsius. the window test is important. gets higher, the seasonal felicia is that the structure has been needed really well. last. it's nice and smooth the last day, which will put use of left the wrong slate jerome to bark after needing the tow needs to arrest again. now with added ingredients, it continues to rise. but in pollution, the way the rolls are prepared is crucial. the flour doesn't give them too much flavor, the moist flavored during segmentation and the salt is also important to develop a good overall flavor under roma event. i'm sure not a whole mountain construct signed book always visit catalina shell from the karlsruhe institute of technology has studied the properties of various bread recipes. it's not so much the type of grain that determines how healthy

a role is. wheaton, spelled, for example, are closely related. what makes their own more healthy because when whole meal flour is used, told me, or flour contains the grains nutrient rich husk gets germ, which contains fat and its endo sparks. white flour, on the other hand is made only from the endo sparks which consists largely of starch and gluten infliction common. it's always true. the whole nail rolls healthy and rolls made of white flour high for me. yeah, that's just because of what's in whole meal flour for, for me, it contains more minerals, movies, maintenance and also know fiber, which are very important for a healthy diet. didn't feel any concern to any of them. just extent a white role also causes your blood sugar to rise more quickly and fall more sharply afterwards. withhold the flour, the fiber ensures that you feel full for longer and the curved falls more slowly.

after about an hour of resting the dough, heidi chanel sun forms the rolls. dragging them across the table, firms up the surface. this helps the buttons keep their shape later. the dough has been left to mature for another hour. it's now been a total of 20 hours since the process was started. even many large bakeries are starting to allow longer for the dough to rise. this makes the bread more easily digestible. researchers have also found that it stays fresh for longer and the minerals in the role are more easily absorbed, and diseased can break down sugar molecules and the flower more effectively. these include so called font maps, which are sugars that control their food intolerances is on the 5th just as then what we found that if you take it relatively quickly, like every concrete book tells you today, let's do that with

a site and let the dough rice a half an hour, then bake it, then all of fuck them up. so it's done in the even after an hour of rising time, all 5 maps are still present in the dough. but after 2 and a half hours, it's just over 30 percent. at after 4 and a half hours of rising, almost all 5 maps have been broken down. only 10 percent remain. normally the sugar molecules are digested in the small intestine, but in people within tolerances, fod maps are not properly digested here and enter the large intestine. instead they are, they are broken down by intestinal bacteria. this process produces gases among other things which can lead to flatulence, abdominal pain and diarrhea. people with a certain form of irritable bowel syndrome are particularly affected. so for a role to be more digestible, it needs to have more time to rest. ask your baker if you want to know more details

. our roles are finally ready for the cutting them down. the middle insures they split open in a controlled manner during vacant for the vacant process itself. it's important to add water. as it evaporates, the vapor settles on the surface of the doe, keeping it elastic. this later, it creates a good, crossed an extra step in the process, but definitely worth while. the. it's the moment of truth, the rolls are now fresh out of the oven. heidi slowed mind has invited friends to her bakery to try them out. they are especially keen on the spelt and dry recipes. sure, nice and crispy schmidt and then also taste the seeds that are rented kind of house, you know, in the engine. it's good. it's good enough for the seeds, the better with a little practice anyone can make their own delicious and healthy bread rolls at
