owns of urine in 1669, we saw on files for us, the 15th element, and the periodic table contacts. he was trying to find out how to make anyway, what is false for us. all organisms need fast persist, tennis, essential nutrients by the central composite of life. this is barbara came on. she's a renowned soil scientist based instance casual in canada. it's had a dna, it's hard as part salvas considered us let betts it's part of our, our and i today roughly 80 percent of the world's phosphorus is used for agriculture because it's a structural component of cells. it's essential for cell division and plant development. without enough of it, plants are stunted and don't yield as much. he's been increasingly using these chemical fertilizers on farms since the post world war 2 period. together with crop engineering, it's for the green revolution. the some massive increases in crop yields, especially in the global south and places like india and nice in 16,

a less than production was like, yeah, it will be the medium dens nasty or what would be the next? the production which dep route $315.00 with the sedation are about to tarry a as a scientist at the indian institute of swale science. and definitely they give this credit for foreclosure application because before it was there was no knowledge about the world. but fertilizer use increased 6 times from 1950 to 2000. so where do we get all of it from? stay answer that question. we 1st need to show you the world's longest conveyor belt system, which can be seen from space. it's transporting the raw material phosphate rock from the blue chrome line across the western sahara desert. roughly 70 percent of the world's reserves are in the western sahara, heavily disputed territory currently controlled by morocco, which the un size has been unlawfully occupying the area. a rebel army has been fighting for its independence. the largest preserves are spread across north africa, followed by china presented south africa and saudi arabia. less than 20 percent of

the phosphorus using agriculture actually ends up in the food we eat. that's partly because phosphate fertilizer is new tori. sweet. inefficient defines easily with other minerals in this oil, which makes it unavailable for the plans. and they get 950 off costs with us to apply this. it was do get don't. they didn't get some but people to get us to work and body, but maybe 80 percent of that would be best if you didn't inside. that's why the industry solution is to just chuck more on the soil. faster suppress, relatively cheap, adding a bit as good as a marble guarantee profits. this accumulated phosphorus is come like a see phosphate. how much phosphorus, as lost in the soil, also depends on the cell. 2 civic like in white climates and it will bind to iron and aluminum to alkaline. it will react calcium. this has consequences. the use of chemical fertilizers increases to run off with nutrients like nitrogen and

phosphorus, and to bodies on or at least future if occasion, which kills of oxygen in the water. it also causes massive alco bloom's, which can be toxic and producers wondering nothing when they die. and it's not just the police from agriculture, and that's wrapped in pos vs everywhere in our food or tap water. so if we consume a lot of phosphorus, then that means essentially what's coming out is the same. this is janice on a call. she's a researcher at the swedish university of agricultural sciences and also started a company that turns urine and seizes into fertilizer. one out of 10 people are like that and then and then took nutrients that are in urine is enough to grow a 500 grams of weight. so basically it means your urine. you can be grow, you can be producing a loaf of bread every day. she and her colleagues designed a system that essentially boils down or exclude and routines as nutrients. how to the urine diverting toilet. the solution is starting to gain traction in the west.

but the upside is that it's particularly adoptable for places that don't have plumbing since it doesn't need water. unfortunately, household p is just a small fraction of all the nutritious waste on earth. there's also phosphorus and sludge and industrial waste water, not to mention the newer from lives can dairy farming. what are the most scalable solutions is to figure out how to get all of it out and reuse it right now. so its treatment plans to get the water cleaner, get it. we're not looking at it as a extracting resource or, and i think it was mine and these are 6. but why not? the industry is still figuring out how to improve existing technology is to make large scale removal economically viable. there's also been advancements and the methods of extracting phosphorus from animal maneuver. there's no shortage of technologies. it's just right now, it's still more cost effective to ship box than it is to try to get it from all these other sources. we can also start earlier in the process and how plants absorb

more. the phosphorus. recent research has shown that certain types of fund guy induct syria, could be used in the future to improve crappy old. and so how am fun, j did these other estimates group of funds, a data lake? very good. uh, fox sort of cabbage that he's been sick and it's been that high cmc cabbage plus what else from 80 of the plan to come out to the scientists are still researching how these my groups can be used for large scale farming. however, transitioning to such organic agriculture takes time and could result in your losses or risk. farmers are hesitant to take. the legislation could help me with the market along the recently legalize the sale of cost for us recovered from sludge as fertilizer and is working on laws that will require more. fos for us to be removed from waste water. asbestos actually quite easy to recycle. the government of this then says, hey, you have to recycle 15 percent of the cost 1st. that's been your waste water. and

then innovations finally have a chance to come to light and start to implement. frankly, the cost of fitness would drive a lot of innovation. when it was cheap, don valley that i am optimistic, kept at that. maybe i'm just optimistic in general, but space, but the technician that fits there and we're talking about it and may be able to cover new revolution. see this bernetta? well, the plan that is comes strong, contains water quality text. i agreed fiber, which was legal to waste. but what good can come out of this waste bible? you get off. however, the community of marginalized women in so i'm in law goes monday, the 6th we're making beautiful, fashionable items out of this waste fiber. transforming but on a fiber into boss gets them in here. individuals. beautiful. going to them in my day, in southern india,

i thinking of materials once considered please. i'm going to get into something they can use part of them in school today to say we started working here after her husband was in prison. the job offered her and her children, a lifeline. a put us in and out of the to put down that a more than a week after the incident. i was losing out to him for a few days days and preventative helps me during that time. if you'd let me know how i loved it, eventually the day by day my kids are getting older the same and i didn't know what to do. an opening, nobody can. we can embed critical situation and i came to this job and then a lot of got into this in the city, i'm and what is the salary and the women. i'm looking at the model, the international, the center for aut amico. they produce over 20 varieties of boss goods and more than 50 other types of handicrafts. the project aims to empower windows and single women providing them with book, but serves as

a source of monthly income for them. the initiative was founded by johns. he has been leading it for almost 6 years and lived in nevada. when i was a kid, i used to give me a gift to my friends. i would get everything from trees including raises and create a small homes and those items. i received a positive feedback from my friends, but i believe it was during that time that i realized i'm not going from interest, rudy. with this realize there's some like me to consider making things out of them . naturally. medina isn't race now, but the obviously didn't. the india is the was largest producer of the non us growing more than $30000000.00 tons of the food every year in summer, not to the 4th largest, but not agreeing states around $10000000.00 tons of waste is produced. the but not least for the mika project comes from pharma. see, he cultivates a fees of what on 2000, but not fees. the growth cycle of the plans spends approximately one year. within 10 months, the trees bear fruit,

and after how listing the i got down to make we for the next crops of the miss any of the was due to i'm going to be surprised. but recently we haven't started using it for multiple purposes. in particular, we use it yet as a drama duty or to make some baskets. this has been very useful for us kind of the the mika baskets and other products are mostly exploded abroad to countries like with knob on the usc, the women make around 8 to 10 boss gets every day they are sold for around 2000 a piece. just who would want to utilize the room and get around $150.00 to peas on one euro. 6540. it might not sound like much, but the see the income brings them comfort and there are also other benefits and what not. a lot of them are they finding every women working here faces how to spend and trauma issues from their families. these tries to give them hope for

financial independence and the chance to support their children when we come together and work as a team or to all up being seems to feed them now. and the best thing is that the women say nothing from nature is based it, they believe their work benefits the environment. but more importantly for sylvie, it also brings her closer to her dream to empower women, just like how to support themselves and their families. i would love to get my hands on a hand bag made out of, but i don't know if i was who would have thought, what did his ideas like these that actually only making the decisions to the farmers, to us. i'm to the planet, but you let me know what did you like the most about today's episode, and what would you like to see more of? i will see you soon until then take a goodbye. now, my gosh. the

a pulse. the beginning of a story that takes us along for the ride gets to perspective culture information. this is the the news w. mine's good mauritania is here on mark track. we know is this one of
