africa d, w. well then progress pop calls to everyone who wants to know more about this topic that concern us about this story is beyond the headlines world in progress. the w cost cost. the hope you have a one did what exactly mix of green and sustainable city? well, lots of these question on the north one, we can also in 25 minutes, not on this week's edition of equal africa will be exploring as many aspects of the question as possible. so welcome to the show i um, sandra holmes, the tween of you,

right to e, you've gotten to the more people move to speak to is the more important it is to make sure they are livable of future proof that involves everything from social and environmental factors to autonomy to build the options i am present loads from dodge area. here's what is coming up. why so low power debate goes, maybe innovation will soon be found in other applicant countries do what just so called a heat offices do to help us cope with extreme temperatures and how bicycles i've taken over the streets of compiler. i've you noticed that groceries of become a lot more expensive recently. you'll know the older one climate change, the one you cray effects of corporate dikes in our re conflict between escalating

food prices. and so what about growing your fruits and beds? we had to join this burg checkouts prior to read and got mean projects. missiles up to the highways offices of downtown johannes, but lies lawrenceville, but it's no high income neighborhood. in south africa, food prices are used by 14 percent this year, and residents here, a barely scraping by every day and tides. sometimes they don't. and as you can see, the papers i see last time i usually buy the books. big 5 ran last week i go to the, i see the books, it was 75, run the pep on the waiting up to fulton shortly. go up. there's a little short little app. so hes managing nowadays. if to cut one way out until the predicament could be urban agriculture, the victoria yards present in lawrenceville is just one example of what could be possible in john is that this revamped industrial sites much the piece of market

bonnie wants to motivate urban dwellers to grow and process their own food. just beautiful. this is mean. it's very good. you can even put it on tv. i'm seeing one tv in new i choose. i love to so much. here john is book self proclaimed green lady. it's the green business college. a place dedicated to inspiring people to get their hands dirty in the soil. and we can live in from it. the good economies, big. so as a college, much as a cover, all those sectors that, that i mentioned was touch with a new food. and then the fluids. we started the beginning and the beginning is food for about $75.00 euros. the college offers a 5 day workshop teaching skills to grow organic food, cool kids, and preserve it today. my company's teaching has students to be paid, sharpening on how to pick

a which device will storage. it's done with household staples like vinegar, sugar also. but the green business college also goes beyond plants in cooking on preserves. and we cut part of this training with business. you have an exposure because we're a business coordinates and do also want them to be and up into us who does go beyond doing this hudson's for themselves. i attended a consult class that told me that you can also have make a garden on the head stuff. these. you cannot see, i don't have space, they've got these also tires. actually, that's what i learned, that we can actually convey to allow waste into something for dad to south africa can produce enough to feed its population within 2021 in full. how soon wins hungry? because of the rising cost making healthy food. affordable was one reason can offend the pool. cool. got into agriculture was that since he graduated from the

green business college 4 years ago now runs a small urban farm in the north of johannes. but yeah, the trained musician believes that people in cities like i need to re learn how to grow their own food on his plots. he regularly teaches young glucose, basic farming principles. i hope to see everyone not complaining about how to guide the more you know, customer take this to big get guidance and so that everyone has a smaller as well as more than a piece of what we have, you know, and, and then the is this pepsi opportunities that costs you know, 100 cards of stomach outside does a lot of oil put you into teasing of this so much money. you can pull good offers these cookies for free from today. another local roman has come to show how to make self watering planted out of all plastic boxes to grow vegetables and herbs at home, valuable green skills and hard times. okay, all right. so with this group,

let's say that that you did and that would be heavy. and for this, do i after training more than 2000 students, it's success stories such as be stuck in spam. that's the piece of my company to spread the green message thing. what is everything that's right, that's everybody has to corporate or no corporate. lemme turns over to the images pop up to him to provide to people that have to it. and everyone is including the president. each new guardian filters and every garden mean listen much more than just help people to meet the needs. at the same time that we gain from in skills, boost vital insect on prompted by diversity on air quality in urban areas. while spreading the seats of local empowerment to have been the guardian says, bringing up all over the world. and that makes sense for several reasons. for

example, it help reduce the amount of goods transported from elsewhere above cuts, carbon emissions. so let's talk about the tremendous traffic. well, i say the last week is, what can we do about it? we found out what city shown into the ship. here's this week's doing your bids. the congested streets are effective life and shooting is the capital of chain is here and that means lots of pollution. decisions center is teeming with delivery vehicles. if they will sell the pallet at quality would be vastly improved. a gym and junior, the install top has taken note and as manufacturing, so that's how it's 3 wheelers. there's no need for charging stations because the

vehicles have panels on the roof, which was a 3 wheeler because of the windows very efficient. and the they don't consume a lot of energy and the weight is very long. and we the, if the weight is very light and we have very small, multiple, very small, it makes it month of, of $1500.00 watts. uh, if you put $500.00 to apartments, it fits together. it's an ideal solution to admin lose. who has a wholesale business? he's bought one of the vehicles and has calculated that he's saving the equivalent of about 150 years and fuel expenses a month. and then what the key thing about the was the electric imagines also maintain and this is very easy. i knew quite and you know, there's no reading or no boiler chain. yeah. almost nothing that needs the service center is on and the engine is robust up into a very good quality. uh,

it'll this to the tennessee, the gem and she knew the install shop has sold a $146.00. so that's how it vehicles in gina's here. and is now coming to open branch is in saudi arabia and then lake sauce nigeria flat. hopefully they'll soon be helping reduce pollution just to say on here in june, this the end. how about you? if you're also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us a tweet. past a doing your bit. we share your story. it would be or look a little fun to get to a wrong child in a code that easy and adding more pollution to the air would be going to be great to see solar pause 3 wheelers replacing all the delivery baycove off

a sofa. new board piece bought faulty consistent, you know, main buy, caught and uses. think how much m p a as says that this would, this is awesome. on this. from here. jesus, i'll walk you through sunday mornings, open helpless stuff in composite an opportunity for rosy. my way just to have a variety to see the 9 year old is the youngest member of fun cycling. you've got a group of lucas, frankly. if there's this driving way. i know class, it's fun and you can move by trading where they are class. you can't move on, you have to send you like an affiliate of critical must you can find cycling has

about a 100 members the group bridge you let it meets once a week to promote cycling as a sustainable fitness and clean them up. really to option, are you placing all cycles because when ever you cycle, you're not putting your team back at us and meeting the environment. there is no gas or any emission, the bike is putting out. it's funny, your body, your legs and your mind fits. what circling side by side really heavy traffic on narrow roads can be dangerous. to address that, a bad plan is what city authority see, invest more in member to raise trustworthy infrastructure. to push the need to drive around the neighbors to go from home to charge to work from home to a shop, to the supermarket. these are journeys that can be easily made with none with arise transport even in the central business district. i think it's, it's the rest of the people creating smarter cities more beautiful cities. but here's the population. compulsory is now quite low to this city is 1st conference

on the so called in m t zone street useful close to me just strictly for circling and put this to as well. so it is already seeing its benefits, roads and woods. douglas started to move because voters, apple instructed to move people the one in rods focus on that one because i need to know what people didn't download. so that's why we're saying, you know, or being technicians we are making as a government. that must be what you for an empty facilities. this tubs, rosie my wages. heavy traffic pushes on the very, very, i saw stead a bad thing. we should have to do that done, but done still and that should complete how to do. let me test for the day. what

would your wishes that infrastructure can be improved? so that's what people concern her for a right thing on the topic of traffic. gemini, is possible, once the public emissions use these offices for the environment. so what can be done? make it more sustainable. what are the associates? we sold some existing ideas as examples e euro of the, this is a delivery was a different with just a reckoning sound accompanying the hallman as he navigate spellings, canals. every day he transport some 350 packets from the outskirts of the german capital to its central best house in port the solar power. both is a trial by global logistics company, d h l to get freight of the roads. are the center type work that's my i think it's

great that the company is running real tests and not just planning according to calculations. we're actually trying something out to see what the logistical problems uh, visiting for example, this morning there were some technical issues at the low i'm the forklift operator was late. the idea is eventually to ultimate loading and unloading. it's the sort of trend that fascinates and you're asking me the bottle and professor researches how to best move police goods around with cities, old lives of the world, pulled up with road traffic. the idea of cutting pollution and transport noise makes perfect sense to professor to me. how does not have to tell me simply until now we haven't made the most of waterways as traffic and transport routes. uh, we can do a lot more. so what do you tell is currently doing is the right way to go in the order of police to go emissions free boats that are very quiet and don't make

a lot of waves. can be used both in cities and in the country side. and we don't have any shortage of waterways of, of any kind of you to make the loan. there are some 200 kilometers of navigable both ways that could help reduce road traffic. is a strategy that could work in many other cities to transport produces a 5th of greenhouse gas emissions in germany at just 150000000 tons in 2022. that's a long way of the 19000000 to get maximum. the gem government says it's required to help slow the effects of human energies. climate change in the german environment agency is left for calling for speed limits of 120 kilometers power on the autobahn and 30 kilometers pallet and build some areas by simply reducing vehicles speeds, germany could cut 6000000 tons of greenhouse gases every yeah. but what is standard practice around the world remains

a very divisive issue in germany and they've been in.
