and for cents, the platform for these issues take care. i did a, you know all this time i'm not afraid to ask you. and then it keeps talking. young people clearly have the solution. the beauty of the 77 percent, every weekend on dw, the old habits die hard, but some habits need to die sooner or later. for our own sake, or for the sake of applying, how do i come, i'm sorry to go through body annual, watching ico in them. and today's episode is more fund guide o one on one, on the habits that we can change. the alternatives that we can choose and how to go

about doing it. and why we, are you thinking that habits? the 1st thing that most of popped up in your head must have been how? because let's be honest, it's not a very easy thing to do. but often we need some inspiration to push us this farmer glass door to villages, which is now a smart city where to address that for us from children in schools to families in housing societies. everyone who is producing minimally waste this is been breed since like one of indiana's most industrialized cities. it's budgeting. factories have attracted thousands of migrants, many of whom live in informal settlements like this one. every morning where it goes from the men's group here in dalinta to settle for the small gods to collect garbage. it's more than just schedule. they want to change the way people hand deliveries. i'm sorry. 6 can you be collect nearly $350.00?

there was a break for you from to communities and almost $505.00, because most of guy we have like paper and a class 3 times through the effort telco says that a group residents now know how to segregate the garbage and keep it ready for pick up blue for dry and green full but based the waste is then brought to this collection point read this further sought by other group members. they got one of the it was hard to convince people to get that separately to try and vic based they don't try and see where are we supposed to keep separate things like dining, how this should be done to protect your house? is that it's, i'd say, well if that's what it takes to keep the community clean that's been done. and obviously that's my how the light is on monday group was set up in 2015. it's team is to generate income for them and to well, that helps improve living conditions in that community's today. the municipal cooperation phase, the salaries. that's because it sees that look as

a valuable service to the city. they are doing something which is good and something which is quote unquote, on rebels and not something that has to be looked down upon it as also to validate in to a cleaner slumber. it does it, as i said, into a more segregated way. it's coming out of the slums and also helping the guidance from the ways that gives ended. he was talking about the, the menu or that gets updated to what, how the brand. and then also sending that the brand in one gives you 2 gives you 5 gives you the bags as well, of the women's work selves of why they're going to don't fits into the, into a 0 based city as an industrial hub, governed by one of india's which is municipal bodies, it has the funds to achieve that goal. it strategy has brought grassroots activists on board this, i'm excuse me, maybe with the, even the classrooms were full of little students with just about um the garbage

behind the door. so i decided to set up a dedicated garbage area inside the school. and that's how i started creating more awareness in schools about the segregation of it at the drive and has a displacement for jet. so you're locked into that. so congress it up. i team the tools into collect all the plastic separately and store it in one place and they cool so that it can be be cited in plastic to yes, very thoughtful. but if this is a market, normally devised fun ways for kids to keep this going. with the, like drafting a so called one step bought to collect plastic 0 to train teachers to continue to work with pupils in the classroom. for many southern trash has become 2nd nature. vanilla i eat chips this good, so instead of doing them in the spring, i remember the exact opposite end of the doors or do we don't have the to it in the dust when they have the tool. it's in this once you bought the car back by the

local government, general motors efforts had now been extended to 7 other schools and been beaten for amongst them is this one that efforts by students and teachers when the school the prize for being the cleanest in the city and why the sizes that i have the vet this, that this happens to include in the lead time is the bottom from the trees on the collect everything and put it into co, forced upon me, provided by the city of the desk. i'm putting in my there, i mean, it doesn't have it this turns into a faulty eliza m b i to show the children 1st tend to benefit self organic, oppose to tongue lateral. good. last thing and we'll learn i'm, it's something that can be used for our schools, kitchen gardens, debbie girl, various kinds of vegetables and flowers. the gotcha part of my day followed by diet experts become such initiatives like one that it would take more than grassroots efforts for the city to make the transition to 0. based by considering the risk

management as a fully municipal category, as a property of the municipality, from which there is a single transition, which is happening for things of risk as also a. so sites in this one, somebody be met on an agenda data. and so these are also responsible for risk management. i think that is the floor plans ition, which one sees happening in indian cities which is positive. and i see the development symptom pritchens like as a very much in line with this. and the transition presidents, young and old, are changing database disposal habits a small step in the bigger picture. yes. but it's making a difference. nevertheless. whatever the 51 i work for the vice project. when i go back to me, i really need my produce what i tell them not to, to trash outside or any. but as i see, if this can work in the city,

it can also keep the village clean. we show that everyone next to this, we don't have the to garbage and event on the drawer. this is a healthways. well, us and for the, for you just to so in the field to and so it would be very easy for us. there is the no pollution, nothing. so it will be very like natural thing. so you can see that's it, and that's will be i guess when the doors that 1st tool up sided oaks, it goes situation which is hard to escape from. like the appliances that we use. for instance, we use an air conditioner to escape from the heat. but the emissions from this ac in don't contribute to the heat that created the need for them in the 1st place. the more you use your ac, the more you wouldn't need it in the future. but how do we escape this vicious cycle? then? the answer is sustainable. cooling to take

a look at this building for thoughts and single floor and use a new delhi. new york and hong kong. noticed anything in these parts of the world. life without air conditioning can be uncomfortable or downright dangerous. more than a dozen people have died and then during the last 2 months, due to a severe heat with this heat wave waste heat rate. but that brings us to our dilemma to technology needs lots of energy. in fact, cooling, building accounts for 10 percent of our global electricity consumption, and that's bad news for global warming. but there are solutions, some traditional, some modern that don't heat up the massive amounts of energy. so can they help us break out of this visual circle? the, the story behind this conundrum begins in new york city in 192. that's where the engineer will as carrier, leave the foundations for the modern air conditioner. he designed an engine to control the humidity in

a printing class because it was warping the paper. nowadays, americans are still some of the most prolific if the users globally 90 percent of us households on an air conditioner and some of the hardest parts of the roof. it's not even 10 percent. but other countries want to catch up. just look how much more energy some of these emerging economies are projected to use in the coming decades to colder homes and buildings. this is 2016 and this is 2050. you see in the air conditioning market is going in double digits on good. clunky is working to open up the global market for high efficiency. air conditioners in the us population is growing is getting even more of like a, but also a large portion of the indian population is one of the nice thing is moving to cities. and all of dr. good, a wants to do is do a huge demand flooded conditioners because of trends like these global energy demand for space cooling is projected to triple by 25th to the question is how to

meet the soaring demands without exacerbating the heat? because and much of the world, the energy because when technology is powered by fossil fuels, these are the lots of greenhouse gases which make the add the scanner hotter. and nowadays, is these have refrigerants running through their coils to absorb heat from the warm air? some of them are literally greenhouse gases. you don't want those leaking out of your unit on top of that air conditioners, cool indoors basis, by pushing out the heat, that refrigerants absorb. that means they make the immediate surroundings hotter to, and people who can't afford to suffer most from that. so you go to 3 for the effect as a result of air conditioning on that my skin and be able to reduce it down to either efficient, holding or to cooling without air conditioning is really a smart solution to get that this is per side by the an expert in passive solar design, he says there are 3 steps to cooling, sustainable here. first, we need to reduce heat at

a city wide scale. you may have heard of the urban heat island effect. it's one urban areas like these get warmer than the surroundings because all of this concrete absorbs and retain seat, creating more spaces with shady trees and other plants less than a specific. like here in berlin. and minimizing heat, expelled by cars, also makes a difference. the next step is designing buildings that aren't as reliant on air conditioners. and this is where we can really learn from traditional architecture. before technology or piece runs awards, phone solutions to, to show by the preferred chunk of, of dime leads bio climatic architecture projects and countries like vietnam and more attain yet. that means that designs take local climates into accounts. some modern buildings are already doing this, such as cut the university which uses wind power, so keep its buildings cool. this method has been used in iran and other middle eastern countries for centuries. the so called wind cultures are designed to

traverse fresh air and directed indoors. the hot air it gets pushed out. you may also have noticed that houses in hot climates or some light. some countries like india are bringing back this approach by painting grooves with line based whitewash, which absorbs less heat. this can reduce indoor temperatures by 2 to 5 degrees celsius. knowing the wind direction is important to design openings that encourage cross ventilation. other features that can help save off heat or shading devices to keep the facade cool. and insulation prevents heat from traveling through your roof . for example. issues may still need to be used sometimes, but to a much lesser extent, the problems in many countries going to a construction boom, new buildings often look like this. but it does tend to bid them with floor to ceiling glass. and that's of your love problem because every time you put a glass into a building, you've done it basically into a hot box. it's like

a song ok, architects and engineers say this, acetic is popular because it's perceived this week, modern and left a natural life. changing that would require more rigorous building regulations around energy efficiency and a map of cultural shift to actually get them enforced on the ground. another big obstacle is that this approach tackles new constructions. so what about all the old, badly insulated buildings that already exist? this takes us to the next solution, more efficient air conditioning because there's no technological reasoning for a these to use as much energy as many commercial models do now. but what if we thought about efficient mechanical cooling on a much larger scale system like this is already functioning, and singapore here and underground air conditioner towed it as the largest in the world quotes, residential buildings, bags, malls, and this iconic hotel. the technology is called district cooling and it can save up to 50 percent on energy and dimensions. that's because having one big plant cooling

an entire district makes it super efficient. the water is chilled 25 meters below the ground before its pipes across different buildings. so these, like toronto, paris and hong kong have already taken on the colossal task of cooling thousands of buildings with one system. in some cases, district cooling makes use of networks that already exist. both of the system and perez runs through the cities to which networks. but for the most part, district cooling is better suited for new constructions. for example, would you write international finance, tech city, also known as gift city buildings and you hyper dense engine district. developers had a blank canvas to implement any cooling solution they wanted their choice. district cooling because it's more efficient and cheaper to maintain this may sound utopian, but like all other solutions, it requires lots of upfront capital. know how and of course awareness,

the good news is cooling doesn't always have to look like this. but if we don't move into a more sustainable direction, fast enough, we risk thing trapped in a solution that is actually part of the problem the, the solar panels. what do you think they can do? provide electricity was no fine. so guessing that because they can do a lot more, that innovations that are combining the science of photo. what dates, parking lot thing, lights into energy and agriculture. up to create interesting sustainable outcomes for both the sama and the fees. the surface and the accommodation are excellent, the fresh feed every day and plenty of space and sunlight, chickens, and ducks are kept in natural conditions here at the company's sun, farming and the manager. let me show you like a gift to collect fresh eggs of the

unit produces energy to boot. the roof is made of solar modules haka or stuck hail or extreme weather, such as heavy rain window. snow is less severe under the modules, and it has to be up to us until to unlock it plus get also in 10 sunlight to the cows. don't get sunburned when they're outside on the meadow in the summer. and so my thoughts house enough divided, leaving the angry voltage company. sun farming has been experimenting with combining photo volt, takes and agriculture for 2 years now. fruit, vegetables, berries, and herbs. nearly anything can be grown under the solar modules. they're positioned at a height, but let's in plenty of daylight blocks, potentially harmful direct sunlight to come from the another advantage of the

system is that the building components can be recycled to shift on this new economy of just stealing glass 100 percent and it can all be recycled on the structures can be dismantled and resold as time goes, the material has good salvage value and is always in demand or steve is always needed for the materials in the modules can be used to build houses or storage sheds. that's good and kind of thing to understand. the high a drip irrigation system collects rain water and funnels it into channels defend distributed evenly across the ground because this makes the drops larger. they can also penetrate deeper into the substrate and keep it moist for longer. thanks to this irrigation system, the plants are less likely to become diseased. in improvement, in tropical regions, phone go in for stations are coming in because the leaves flowers and fruit get

where it's just missed via the on here, under the modules, the plans grow between the drip rose. so that means that they have dry leaves and only observe moisture through the roots. when you're moving, you bought a new party cut off now as your home. as a result, they have 80 to 90 percent less fungus. and that means you can spray 80 to 90 percent less and still get the same yield. i'm just trying to get to you, you know, when you come in combined with water efficient irrigation. the silver ray can also be used in regions. that's the little rain. and i certainly important 90 percent of the plants growing here are supplied by drip irrigation. the energy required is barely one percent of the energy produced by the silver modules. the students from the brandenburg university of technology are also monitoring the project they're using sensors to study how the

micro climate under the modules compares with a normal area or to if they measure light intensity humidity and the temperature both in the air and the soil around the plants, roofs you're to into some debts and to really tell them is that he fits all at regular intervals and then they also measure the rain that's been collected in these containers. i am the produced and come to them on the desk in the notes of the difference is aren't clear, right? was that i must be my own d. c. i'm 50 state and we've discovered the in the cold a times of yet it's much will not under the modules and in the open um, on average one to 2 degrees will not let me find out the drink dry spells. it's significantly dumped under the modules and out in the open flight. the effects of to oftentimes they have there are different sills arrays for different purposes. the panels are designed so that the top of the plants get more light. but at the

same time, wine and fruit plants are protected from too much solar radiation for livestock farming. there are modules at different heights for capital, poultry and also sheet form or, or the kitchen is keeps $250.00 cows that spend the whole year outside their cars are born in winter. the i agree photo voltaic system has obvious benefits in florida as being the solar system would also be a good source of income with the crew of using the uh, salt lake. how's it kept on send the raw, the pool soil in nature conservation areas, and they help maintain the soil. so the solar system would be an added source of income in addition to the capital. oh, we can also use it as a dry place to store. i hate that the cows feed onto it for you and it's also

a protective roof for them into their to you. the few of the farmers cattle already gone to try out their new accommodation and they seem to feel right at home. well, the good news is planning on installing the system as soon as possible. how's it been? oh yeah. you know, one that we are you what, what do you do after you're done using your some of us might be placing this inc, strong. like most of us, we just throw the or ping away on several bands. i'm like this one. don't even have the option of replacing this extra. but what is your benco do more than just head rule, the tree of knowledge, difficult to actually girl ality. i agree when i'm watching the whole think would be cited as well. ok. no more. it is you will find out for yourselves

the sewing the seeds of change. see the balance who comes from the village of am pulliam income and i do came up with the idea of creating a green, been mechanically by most qualified mechanically the total height grew up in the remote village, very close to nature in the cities. deforestation has been a lot of use, it's a side of high boston, i wanted to find a solution. and even if it's a smaller scale, going up on the slide design, what they call up the. but then when you divide that by a degree degrees i made a recycle people all depends also contain captions filled with seats. seats that flush and locus, sorry, and don't need much looking after the people that has kept the deluxe connect to the crew from disappear. and i mean, so i to a few of the use spent in the ground in front of my office and local school. the students did the same like they have grown into planned support and many people said they enjoyed seeing them kite. the people fence has got plastic usage to

in india up to $2400000000.00 plastic bins are sold each year and more than 90 percent of them do not get recycled according to the national green tribune to the young entrepreneur also holds his bands. can make a difference in his community or even the now if i knew the production couldn't be done by one individual alone a couple and then that's why i got a group of, i'm unemployed women together in my village on entering them. i don't want to like they have benefited from the do the income when people in this opinion be do training program other than nearby villages to and the political and the the buttons of my fund. i don't care, don't know. i'm understanding and that's really funny to look back. so maybe we can own an income, what taking care of our families to it's much more convenient and, and on the job somebody can combine this work with a family like family,

another. but i don't see that balance on his team meet around $800.00 to $1000.00 pounds a day, according to demand domain customers of schools and colleges defense cost, $5.00, rubies. each photograph where we take the paper and down the middle and it leaves the line of gone and placed the increases. but after that we fold it and put it into a paper rolling machine. once the pen is dry, we add a cap to, to the back. and phillips with c odds, and then we pasted with gum again, an added cap and packaging this defense i meet with the machine originally designed to manufacture fire crackers, see about bottling found a way to convert the model. he now aims to make a smaller woods into says he also wants to refine his bands and use organic materials to make inquiry books to columbus. how long and my challenge here is gonna make the product a 100 percent organic and nobody haven't been able to do that to you at

a 0.0.5 percent of it is the last day. we are trying to improve that a bit odd indeed. biotics pretty melting the things like peacock feathers which was used to write an inch in times and allowed me to leave for an item the other needed to go the now what out in the plastic but as an individual not i can not bring changes just with my paper pen, either one to everyone, needs to take the sponsibility the fund and try to use such products to get lost to use the small changes all add up. yeah, i don't. like i said at the beginning of this episode, it is a one on one on the small habits that we can change to make a big distanced lot in mind. and well, i'm already thinking quite a few of my habits, including my 5th. but you let me know it today is episode inspired you to change any of your habits. and what story is, would you like to see more off? i, we keep bringing more such stories to you. you can email us or do you talk to me directly on my social media? i will see you next week until then take care goodbye the most gosh,

it's 300 year old idea is be responsible for today's problem. and could they help us solve them? i believe our futures in our past. the americans of the beginning of mcdonough, the series of the great philosophies to our present and future. the enlightenment says, progresses in our hands and that means so it's really, it's up to the series project and the soft services on dw the

this is b w news coming to live from berlin. gunshots reported in the garden. a car box. presidents accuse of somebody's jobs violating a cease fire has taught us on the future of disputed territory wrap up. 2 days of finding gave us a place you on a swift military victory of the regions separatists. also coming up pulling pins, its flow of weapons to ukraine may not be guaranteed, keep appears at risk of losing the aid of one of his strong.
