the world in progress pop calls to everyone who wants to know more about this topic . that concerned about this story is beyond the headlines world in progress. dw postcard, the humans that create use of habits is hard to get us to change always. but like you to not, we're going to have to adjust to read the practices. but good news is that many of the solutions out there also pricing was simple and workable, sustainable alternatives, vast of it because of this addition of eco africa. i increase phillips and i have
5:31 am
some drugs co homes that we nobody. oh, nice to have you with us. as we said, we'll be looking at climate friendly innovations in a number of industries. before we get started, here is a brief look at what we have coming up. creating qualities for break from 6. dave rejects quotes, the spots lies out for games and a jeep and roof tiles that lights up your life. international trade has been around for centuries, but globalization has to go into overdrive the upside us a lot more choice on flexible prices. the prism is shipping goods around the world takes a heavy toll on the environment. so, is it really what sweets in the end of foss report comes from egypt with people
5:32 am
looking into clutching inputs of, i mean, we'll see it a solar is an invasive plant on the status of it. that's hardly a good thing. but besides growling extremely quickly as a whole, it contains a lot of protein, which makes it ideal animal photo. it has some quotes on as a feed cross so far. how many they'll top up all we need to skip at the plump by chance on youtube. while looking for cheaper ways of feeding his household animals type of thing. the 3rd thing that if we use the is all up to feed capital, we can save an average of 60 to 70 percent of the feed costs for policy. you're gonna save an average of 40 to 60 percent based on the but i had the 16 for me. i'm clean with a lot of has a lot of the know how to 7 years ago. how many adults, how well began studying, and then planting and solo to feed his domestic life, start with it. and soon after he started selling it to others, his mother took
5:33 am
a bit more convincing. a one time, not the one window. how many 1st customers i used to laugh at them and said to myself, that the world is full of weird, crazy people get ahead of me. but then i started trying. the plant was my poultry. and honestly i found great results. my how many it has since decided to become a full time. it's all a farm on pioneer to grace the plants and several large tanks with a total area of 300 square meters. the middle class started about 7 years ago with the very small from now we have a number of us all the nurseries, something that we've spread, the idea around agents helping to grow the plant on 350 acres, most addiction farms like abdullah ali feed the animals on grain, i'm sorry for the country now, imports about half of its grain and 90 percent of it solely. and the war in ukraine has also further pushed up prices. putting pressure on many farm is
5:34 am
i don't know if i long so on. $300.00 kilos used to cost as almost nothing. but now they cost a lot. today's price is 15021800 years or less than most of i do, but my income has been increased. so i don't make a profit on that. as all, it is much cheaper. and currently the simple, if this war to nearby or you need then is sun and sometimes some force for us to act as a fertilizer. the aquatic fund was long cultivated elsewhere, for example, in peru or in royce funds and trying to put the technique is logically died out. mohammed up delta while is using mold in means to spread the word in egypt. so i missed missed with a couple. it's in the 1st people where i didn't know what to do with my hobbies in the 7th, and then i started using social media i, when i uploaded videos of my channel showing me is all
5:35 am
a planned in poetry eating it today over that. and that 9 detention and people came to see it for themselves. i showed them in the plant, i'm the chickens. when people started to accept the idea you up with a, a button had been name is time to produce some 600 kilos each day. and he has plenty of customers x, but say that the client can also play an important role in the environment. a computer if i were to provide its own nutrients mission. i a full look, a type of blue green algae grows with his own on that island. it absorbs nitrogen from me and transforms it into organic nitrogen that feeds the plum to look them when it also has an co sign. instead of look as antioxidants and is a source of victim in a which increases the plants nutritional value of it, then it comes to this, every rod, that's all. it has also cool eviction agricultural researches. these university
5:36 am
graduates are producing power that as on the feet and hope the plant and help pharmacy to become more independent in other ways. the we want to have a social and environmental engine. he cannot make impact. i teach farms within photo i london water with relatively high solemnity, levels of how to grow the is all a plant in middle of by the hospice from them. and they'll have a decent source of income for the full amount of that is when the test phase is over, the young sciences wants to get that product approved by the addiction authorities . in the meantime, mohammed up till tow up because found another application for surfaces, solar, it works well. there's no chemical road too long. so regardless whether it is for people or animals, a lot of time, energy and resources go into producing food. so it's very heartbreaking to hear that according to the you, when environment program around one fund of or food produced is listed
5:37 am
a yes indeed. sandra, lock of refrigeration and pull distribution are 2 big reasons for that. but some folks just have a short shelf life like break, but at least one bakery gym these tend, it's dr. bread into another valuable commodity. take a look, a sale, fred in germany around $1700000.00 tons of a good officer and a weight each year. some gets fed to animals or times into bio gas, but much ends up brushing away the dumb faster kindly because we're a small, big 3 like us. it's about 10 percent less, but at industrial bakeries and supermarkets, roughly 30 percent just gets tossed, expect that they can do to evict ship, why has found a way to recycle his old bread? p does it using the bakery ovens risk that you will heat? so he doesn't waste energy either. the roasted bread is then ground. it's now
5:38 am
a valuable commodity. just what professor thomas book from unix technical university needs. a broad depressed supplies solid and liquid from student don't think simply use them for donuts. it's the season doesn't look good. i made for you this about the wonderful i don't think it's with me now. for some x, electronic fi at the technical university of munich, biochemist must mood mastery has developed a method to extract oil from old bread. first the ground bread is mixed with an enzyme to trans phones, the starch, and to sugar places, especially east fund guy will be added the feed or the sugar that you said it would be smart at the beginning. and it's of odd shape when it's stuck to eating more
5:39 am
sugar, it would be more around and a community, it's something of the oil inside some small bodies, quite a bit bodies we have now or, and then the next step would be to destroy that said, was and get the own people has been employing this method for close to a century the they needed toxic solve and it's to access the well. then missouri discovered an enzyme that cuts openness. some will the beast, the enzyme derived from an mushroom, this enzyme is completely non toxic. the goal of his research as to find in the eco friendly alternative to palm while it's using almost every product, every 2 brothers on the ship, that one of them point in on one in certain separate ingredients and to find alternative effects. 10 not effecting or is that in deforestation more? and that's the main interest of the process. homeless, both heat resistant and an expensive some $77000000.00 tons of it all purchased
5:40 am
each year. that's what makes com while the top selling vegetable oil on the world's market ahead of sweat under 8 feet. but palm oil is only cheap in financial times. the cost of people in the environment is high. oil palms. many grow in tropical regions. that launched ways to bring forest chopped down to accommodate them, contributing to climate change by contrast, blonde is not required to produce e style. all it takes is a fermentation tank, like the ones used to make b a and it works with things other than old bread. this isn't complex, but we'll start, we're completely self sufficient. when it comes to rule materials, we can use almost any food lice, including rice costs of uh,
5:41 am
sweet potatoes and call and this cup of the you can use all of implant. i'm not just the edible pencil. so i'm even the coolant stores out by mice. does on the solely beast oil tastes very mild, so it can be used in almost anything the bakery when do to evict job one works can meet its needs a fence almost entirely with dale bread. but how could all the bakeries benefit from this discovery? mainly because high twenty's several bakeries couldn't get together to buy a film and taishan saying, can you see how much east oil they can produce from the lift, the bread. that way the risk isn't so great. and at some point, everyone might be able to use their own bread to make french fries at home. why not? i even let me, let me just get back on the phone. this new to the big ship blind uses the fresh east oil to make a special east to treat the recycled oil is used in the dose plays. i'm filling of the chocolate brioche. so if you're going to succumb to temptation at least,
5:42 am
do it sustainably. valdez. pray to face the fading gym, the for now our next report shows us another promise in greenville, tennessee. but these one has to do with energy production. also step away from falsely feels the future looks bright for business. both those like these one a. there was a revolution underway on the roof tops of germany because by cornelius power, these devised and all new roofing tiles system that in addition to protecting houses, also incorporate solar modules. and they produce electricity in abundance. more than enough for the resident family provide the sunshine and then on i talked to anybody as an example. if those and titles on a roof mean a peak of 10 kilowatts, depending on where you are in germany, that's around 9 or even 10000 kilowatt hours. per year. yeah, that's the i'm is offering to understand the long term and pays for itself is in around 20 years, revealed to solar panels,
5:43 am
roof costs around $40000.00 euros in total, a few 1000 more than a conventional roof with added solar panels. revolutionaries always face challenges because they're usually charging new ground palos next level tiles involve a lot of individual workmanship at the factory in eastern germany making production for now relatively expensive of further hurdle is ensuring the new product is super dependable and functions flawlessly, over a period of decades, the ease of law would only be eliminated. solar modules are made on the basis of conventional processes with materials tried and tested in billions of units to date . so like not wanting to talk about from your kindness organs. can you use pause company also introduced robots recently to increase capacity and lower cost? originally and electro technical engineer?
5:44 am
he got investors on board to help finance the price. the material acquisitions. their commitment represented a big vote of confidence in his fledgling enterprise. as of yet how we started out in 2011 with 3 people. so you know we have stuff already 70 it's by you. last year we doubled turn over 5000000 euros towns. and this year we hope to increase our revenue 5 or 6 fold power. this confidence that the energy crisis will see more german homeowners wanting to generate their own electricity. plus the government recently increased funding for solar roof conversions, which need to be as uncomplicated as possible. to spend the slide, there will be 2 penetrations in the roof. they are having over the plus and minus cables will run inside the conduit, done to the investors. it's about simple desktop for
5:45 am
now, the roofing revolutionary is a relatively minor player in what is a $1000000000.00 market. but he's convinced that his innovative solar trials will soon be in demand across the country. skipped from familiar one. i'm from you. germany has 50000000 detached, and the semi detached house is missing and that will require energy related to modernization over the next 30 years. so i'm just hoping that the, if you project that figured out, we're talking about half a 1000000 roofs a year on a moving $2.00 to $300000000.00 solar tiles to be installed the system. and we're looking forward to making a contribution for that target threatened us adults and i talked to last week but with the germans known for being very price conscious, they might still need some persuading. time is however, on his side, if the panels produce the right results, they're down to gain and popularity in the future. so le, tells what
5:46 am
a clever and efficient way to both cover your house and your energy needs. see what's in his sleep. and one that seems taylor made for africa because if there is one thing we have in abundance, it's sunshine, or, you know, what else africa has an abundance of discarded textiles sent to you from other parts of the world. and that is creating a lot of environmental problems. so my soul does uganda, president's unity and so many the glad i'm back on impulse of secondhand clothes. but what can be done with what's already here with us thought of instead of half ago, may have the solution. and these young entrepreneurs are on the missions to defend the environment against
5:47 am
never ending textile waste. they snatch up of course fabric and a role pieces and sold inventory and sold and rejects and give them a 2nd chance at life. yeah, this is an example of some of the one way to recycle. and she said right now, so these are the products that we actually eventually want to me. the global self is becoming the textiles dump of the global north. every day, almost $200.00 tons of textile waste a dump a landfill was an african countries decomposing fabrics release comfortable greenhouse, missing gas. well, toxic chemicals and dies slip into the ground water and soil. ringback what is say to saying go and her friends have vowed to do their beat with we will been inspired by their own hometown and major manufacturing hub. we have about $300.00 as so closing manufacturers operating in south africa, about half of them on the list in case so you want to to start somebody to solve
5:48 am
that problem, but at the same time create jobs. but at the same time, so create and innovative solutions. their initiative, make sure for you, what tech styles end up in landfill spike collect include intended for dump sites from manufacturers and selling them to recycle is who process the materials into a fiber and thread for fabric production. we will then also use this the fiber to make split where and different kinds of textiles. the company collects 70 tons of tech, so waste a month. it's just one percent of western cape waste. the teams, each finding recycling machinery in south africa is a big challenge. still plans to expand to other provinces and continue to clean up the polluting textile industry. and how about you? if you're also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us a tweet. hash tag doing your bit. we
5:49 am
share your story to using was to make something useful. that's central to some of the most exciting innovations that we have seen today. and before we say good bye, would like to introduce you to a month right to in uganda. we used his background in aerospace engineering to develop sustainable solutions for areas that are very much down to us. and the results are impressive. oh no more darkness in helen young, whose house it has been about a year since a home was connected to electricity and since might then well, but they haven't seen and it's just that was this last time for them to see. but they could not believe a village of good, good, good power. at the same time,
5:50 am
electricity is changing lives in prison. for getting electricity, my customer used to return to the homes early due to doc metal. but pres, power, we can sell up to midnight. good, good is a remote finding community located about 300 kilometers north of you kind of capital it borders and what you sent for special pops. you find this largest conservation area and home to engage and species like elephants in 2009 when you're gone to an aerospace pita nichol visited the allstate village in the district of new what he saw in need for clean energy festival. it was near the national park to say if we could do something in the way of which would reduce the pressure on firewood. so it'd be interesting to have concept of national park. secondly, no, i had a lot of agriculture which means whatever we could do with agricultural waste,
5:51 am
we could do it in noise. so in 2012 p 10, you go set up a private company. today they've gone in costco, generate 64 watts of renewable energy from other cultures by a mess to a process called justification. uses the shape off the gas it by just a spock is enough to get the material to heat up to 1000 degrees celsius. at that temperature, it breaks down from rice tasks may scrubbing glass shelves, coffee husks into the same and hydrogen rubber fuel. while those gas is light, they rise to the top. this fucked out and go to power the engine the miss hall. this has just ended, after removing the criminals for food. the woman used to throw waves, it's called, nowadays apply them to peter michael as
5:52 am
a raw material to produce the energy to be used at their homes. and this month lease, we sell it to them. they bite, we get money or most the time we get money. this one, then we get the money in the rice has the company also use us the waste from the guess if occasion during the process guess is a separated from the soul of by your mess. it leaves behind tons of solid rest and you called by ok. there are a micro pause form in the bias. how does micro pause off perfect for bacteria to flourish? us, when bacteria flourish in the by chime, the soil then released nutrients into the ground, automatically fertilizing the ground. so by char, improved soil moisture reducing the need for irrigation by char helps keep
5:53 am
the sofa type, reducing the need for non organic flow devices. during the planting season, he gives the bio co opt for free to about a 1000 farmers in the region. helen younger also get so the forms of this benefiting from their own waste delivered to the company. it's so the cycle is complete and keeps on going. it's a virtue, a cycle which takes us from the vicious cycle of poverty 12 to a cyclist prosperity. every year peter nickle can produce up to 100 tons of bio cos . he only use those houses that as fertilizer. the other house is used to make key cooking fuel in the form of pilots. he also gives an offer fee to families to avoid cutting down trees for firewood. so far the company has offset over 50000 tons of c o 2 annually. pop up with them, but i know it considering i only use
5:54 am
a few pilots to cook now compared to the big volume of firewood that i previously young's pace. and even if i light a few pellets and cooking as far as timing out in the back lawn chair, maybe. but at the in the last decade, peter nickle has said a 5 minute group plans and you kinda costing some 4500000 euros res. mainly through venture capital, his hybrid models back so power from bio mass with solar, another clean energy source. the plant generates a total of $500.00 kilowatts powering more than a 100 household businesses and institutions. in the evening. we can switch on our biomass classify and run it by daytime. we have the solar running and we have a small amount of battery capacity to balance that load. so we have uniform electricity 24 hours a day. every day of the year. on top of that,
5:55 am
you turn your course started a new project, electricity mobility among the rule community. he has already 5 electric vehicles running in court. in the near future, he wants to expand his p. m. s, the model to zambia, but china and south africa and even federal way to speed in the united kingdom. that's quite a project. you can get much more circular and sustainable than that. i'm afraid we've come to the end of this special edition of echo africa also has tenable alternatives. we hope you enjoyed the program and will come back again next week. i'm crystal, i'm signing though, from lagos, nigeria. and it is also a good buy for me, sandra, to homes, that we, nobody will write you an income to let you go. and don't forget, you can always check in with us with our social media channels. why not send us an e mail on tell us about the different projects in your area dedicated to protecting
