4:34 pm
all part of the philosophy of a common good enterprise. a matter close to julia angle months are tied to it, even though i think it's great this customer contact attack, there's a special atmosphere we came ok if the customers take time and enjoy the experience on come get us some on call. openness and transparency are not only important for customers than a common good enterprise, but also for employees. they should also have a say the m in staff meet in quality circle to discuss important topics and everyone has a seat at the table. v couldn't volume one, but how can we and how should we define a precise flight phone? perhaps we could build a processing plant as constant that it could be cold storage facilities, professional who's a lead. the current issue is how to expand a new site. the by the closest could just make the decision and say, here's how it is now do with a lot. so it's
4:35 pm
a very positive thing to be developing it together. i'm going to good people who have a say are more motivated and the whole company benefits from that. with other farmers . the monuments rely on cooperation rather than competition, the 12th and julia, and then meet the hare digger hall family. the red current harvest is about to begin. the 2 families work together, the hair taker, hoff 10 to the berries, while the elements take care of the sale. yeah, the, what about the 2 systems that well the show the content to be okay. how some of us, yes, of course, for some of the heritage or ha, family has only recently switched to organic farming because it's in the moment this group are going to take, you know, transition phase either being single handedly responsible for the whole business alone. well, i don't even is, and i'm not the youngest day though, i'm about to do what we're doing together now to raise that kind of money. i would have needed to find someone who gave me the benefit of the doubt. and then they'd be machines to bite off losing the packaging code, storage and transport equipment,
4:36 pm

4:37 pm
step in an i t specialist has been committed to climate protection for years for a long time. you searched in vain for environmentally friendly investments. tell us moving here so and also will be i tried out all kinds of things. i started with savings plans, funds and shares, but at some point i got the feeling that it wasn't right for me because that the return was the top priority in anything else was very far behind. i just didn't want to be part of that anymore. i thought you might be investing money, profitably, and protecting the environment. at the same time, stephan had to us found what he was looking for on the internet in a project in kenya, there in rural areas, in particular, most people still coke on open fires and consume large amounts of charcoal. a canyon company has now developed a new type of cooker that uses less fuel, beating overland stuff. last few as about is it less what is burnt,
4:38 pm
which is great. of course he's torn and people are saving money. see mentioned. so of course, that as optimal as not to the shop to model the couple, put their money into the african company through the crowd funding platform, better invest, crowd investing a type of crowd funding allows many small investors to support a project such as more sustainable cookers better best managers, these projects in frankfort and mine, alongside the traditional financial giants. yeah, and then yes. and the next point is you probably will notice that i'm trying to come now as a manager, olga dickman is planning a trip to the stove company. she overseas the implementation of better west african projects and has lived and worked in kenya for 4 years. all projects are chosen based on their positive effect or impact the selection. we finance those that use
4:39 pm
not just fluid to say that it reduced to c o 2 emissions. but i do have to consider that there are lots of people in kenya using the sort of the highest every stove cells contributes to c o. 2 reduction of the 2 that are best was founded in 2012. the platform finance is sustainable projects all over the world. with many small contributions, even large projects can be financed they have, i lived and we have the gray box which represents the total amount needed for the project. and the blue gong shows where we are at the moment blower, but it moves to the right. and when we get to the far right, it says we've done some on the project is funded, it's longer comes and thousands of dollars on the display of disk of funding stuff and had to send his wife, have invested a total of 4000 euros through better best spread over 6 different projects. ideally, bill receive up to 8 percent interest for them. investing in this way is ideal,
4:40 pm
is released quantity of course gets good for the environment and the climate. so we'll do the last but not least towards this also for your own while elizabeth and for your conscience. it's a great feeling to know that your money has invested wisely good as things and just helping to do something good for people and the client. and i want them chemo a school. this is olga dickman has arrived in kenya. the company burn is located in really rupe ne, if the capital nairobi, this is where they produce their innovative stove production managers, oliver malice, burger, and alan jo marissa the, explain the company in detail and how investors money is being spent. the founder of the company is american. peter scott. at the weekly meetings, all the tech man learns about the current state of production. god has been researching environmentally friendly stoves for developing countries. since the late ninety's, his motivation is simple,
4:41 pm
less firewood means fewer forest cleared. i mean, really saving for us is the thing that drives me right. the last remaining rain 1st . if you go to madagascar, people are cookies free meals a day on traditional charcoal stoves, and it's destroying the for us, the amount of gas cards. the fact that we're liquidating these like a truly important tropical rain forests just for cooking is banana. the stove can cut fuel consumption by nearly half. the company has already won several environmental awards for its concept. all right, so this is, this is our main bound warehouse. store our seats still here. the stove that already saved 6900000 tons of wood from being cleared. the burn needs new capital, crowd investing can provided people invest their money overall longer fixed
4:42 pm
period of time. with this capital, the company can expand a at the end of the term, the investors get their capital back with interest, but it's not without risk. if a company goes bankrupt, the invested money is usually completely lost to protect against the experts. always recommend investing smaller amounts in different projects for and has already reached this crowd funding goal for its initial project with better best a win win for investors. and the company is now began a new crowd funding project to expand into even more african countries, the with every euro. every german investor who invests in all projects can save c o 2 investments supports companies that reduce c o 2 and you
4:43 pm
do some good with it and support the african companies. each. coker can reduce c o 2 emissions by up to $2.00 tons per year, which is roughly the amount of c o 2, a german household produces annually for electricity and heating in germany, an entire municipality is investing in the wellbeing of its citizens. sonya is my dad's while you're here now for your 1st climate training. and my colleague here, we'll give you a little introduction today and must push that. deanna feldman is a climate trainer. she was trained for one year by city council and how to make munster households more climate friendly from cooking, the heating to shopping it to your own going to get to hand out like this one in
4:44 pm
a moment. this is the training so cold in that would be great if you could bring it with you to the next meeting. it's a kind of to do this every my reminder that your equip disappeared to this project is the 1st meeting. the participants are a mixed bunch teacher, fatty and ram, cuz expectations are high about 20, the expectation that i'll get my ass kicked a bit. as the saying goes. and those things that i already know i can improve. i'll be more likely to finally do the thing for this. i'm kind of deal helms at 70. jenna bulk men is here to help. she passes on everything she has learned in her climate training to the participants. she works on a voluntary basis and the climate training is free for all. my gosh, will say, knows a thing or 2 about how to achieve a more climate friendly household. she owns 20 waste shops in munster, specializing and environmentally friendly alternatives to ordinary household items . and you know,
4:45 pm
shampoo box which is really shampoo pressed into solid form the whole christmas thing. you apply it to like say, and if he's life or small changes in the household with a big impact in a model experiment wants to residents. we're able to save around $2.00 tons of c o 2 per household in one year through climate training extrapolated to all households in the city. that would be the annual c o 2 emissions of around a $170000.00 cars. this is north of and stuff we've got to do something. next we come to night climate change, animals and something just it has to be done. that's result. and it makes sense for the local authorities to take the range of it and because they're in a position to reach a lot of different people, guns can see to proceed and a pencil and supervisee all, all the threads of the climate training come together here in the coordination office for climate and energy for clint. go for sure. okay, okay, let's move to the point. the state of the projects climate train is, i mean, not contain of a monster has been
4:46 pm
a pioneer in municipal climate protection for decades and has received several awards for its ideas. mathias packet is the head of clinical and he has big plans instead of municipal directives, he wants to encourage citizens to become active themselves through projects like climate training. he's doing the same with the cities, businesses, but couldn't do it by what can you do to contribute to a c, o 2 reduction with us and how can you change production processes on vehicle? how can you save results is, are we provide advice on such topics and the companies are usually very grateful because of course, they can't be expected to have this knowledge and they completely unrelated and 2nd kind of. busy for example, at this glass and mirror or company, it starts with a bit of detective work. energy consultant, marcell student has examined everything that consumes energy and considered what could be changed. you've taken a magnifying glass to the entire company from basel satisfied old,
4:47 pm
and from the base year 2014. we had about $9750.00 euro is an energy cost per unit here. and we're now in a constant, $7800.00 seem tall is enough to enough as that's a cost savings of almost 20 percent of the new pellet heating system. thanks the company almost 2000 euros a year and heating costs pellet instead of gas heating. just one example the energy audit, which company boss and go nick, a man had commissioned identified one of the company's biggest energy gas alerts this table. it needs a lot of compressed air pressure. it comes from age generally, so that we can move to gloss the surface here. nothing would work without a pressure on that this costs money was clear,
4:48 pm
but the immensity of the cost effective was $1.00 of our largest expenses that we weren't aware of. the mirrors and glass can be extremely heavy to move them, they are blown upward. and however slightly over the table as a result of the audit, the machines are no longer controlled centrally, but can be switched on and off as needed. one of the many savings measures recommended by marcel steer with impressive results. um, so the costs have been reduced by 30 percent of the funds starting with over 11002 years and electricity costs per year. and we're now at 7500 year olds when i don't know who else. but here's the number of speak to themselves. young. around 90 companies from monster have already opted for the free initial consultation. all of them were able to save cash, but also c o 2,
4:49 pm
up to 20 tons per company. the city is on a new pass. turning the economy around for the common good is a state goal in some countries about a 1000 kilometers away to the northwest. for example, in scotland, what cares the flanagan and sharon and ross have set up in a small warehouse is part of a much wider change. because in scotland, the economic system will fundamentally change in the future. according to government plan, the, the 2 women live in the glasgow suburb of linwood decades ago. many people moved here to work in the small town. but the big companies closed down and people were left behind to improve life. in linwood, a group of women set up their own foundation and asked residents what they wanted
4:50 pm
people, warranties, some we also split at the could show that this will course, a high quality, a for just a certain age, the voice of anderson at that point in time, and language, it's a my time same, so i had office slave, you know, most of the shops have shut down over a period of, you know, 15 years when it comes as a surprise area and on this and the social skills. and so people can struggle as long as people are a lot of what can people but living on when comes. and so it's difficult to tamani jefferson. now the foundation runs the delivery service for fresh fruit and vegetables. they supply the neighborhoods where there are no shops anymore, is particularly welcomed by older residents finished to do it just the usual monday . you have a nice day about the county. lisa. scotland supports many such non profit projects that benefits people and nature. they want the economy to be more than
4:51 pm
just profit oriented. the government aims to transition to what well being economy and economy for the common good to this end, they're promoting local investment, local jobs, and shorter supply chains. in linwood, they've got a lot of ideas on what can really help the community, one of the most important, a really good football pitch. and that's the goal is to just go, i can't believe that, hey, you know what the heck in front of our toilet and your boss, a place for sports fans without the cost of an expensive fitness club. the women's foundation run the facility itself. i'm like a private sports club. the income flows right back into the project at the same. c so basically the most age barely just of the top 2 in the little pines. so if you spend 2 that most age, the money's top shop, tidmore said he doesn't wish most age and it goes on to future in front of the
4:52 pm
development of the site. the women's initiative is already working on the next project. a new can entity center being built next door. the idea was born when the old community center had to close and the village lost its meeting place. planning took 10 years and now it's about to open. there is even a theater hall for performances, for example, by the initiative supplier. the project received over 1500000 pounds and funding from the state. and a lot of the funding comes from the scottish government of governors, a lot of funds and for the centers for the for that one of the same time and for the same time as well. and just the reduction in funding funded springs. i'm unable to apply to me. the plan is to spread the concept of the wellbeing economy throughout the country. the political scientist, catherine trev,
4:53 pm
back from the organization, wellbeing economy alliance is working towards this in glasgow. an international project was launched in 2017 here at glasgow university, a group of academics and politicians from around the world huddled in this little room, talking about forming an alliance, a group, a partnership that has eventually become known as the wellbeing economy. governments con the ship 5 countries have joined forces to align their economies with a common good. in addition to scotland, finland whales, iceland and new zealand has signed on. catherine has also been advising the lynnwood initiative for many years faced building, but the work behind it and that's the organization that people behind to just embody what a wellbeing and corner me is about. because it's paper same, this top down imposed economy is not right for us. and we have bigger goals than
4:54 pm
that. and we're going to roll up our sleeves. the new community center also has a small restaurant so that local residents can eat well and she blinked. in addition, the cook trains, young people, so they gain skills for the job market. it just keeps it circulating, just keeps the money here and then it sparks small businesses and it just says, yeah, beautiful, virtual soccer for catherine. true back. such initiatives, make the difference the business and politics have until now. barely considered because in most countries, what they do for the community is to measure pain, white smile. if people are coming to a sense of what she makes kids pay full child, chatting to a friend on the sidelines having a coffee supporting someone who's maybe going through a tough time. none of that will add add up to g d p. but all of that makes such a massive difference to the quality of the community and people's lives in this
4:55 pm
sense of whether they can co that's why this well being economy in scotland wants to measure not only finances in the future, but also whether children are growing up happily out, just society, it's education, environmental protection, and much more all this should be accounted for. interstate balance sheet. these new indicators will be another component of the scottish economy in the future. lynnwood has become a confident community with prospects. and the football pitch is just one part of that. me oh i've seen. yeah. and the gail austin tier. and i like to play with kaufman c at the football and that kept the money for good causes instead of gross at any price, many small steps can make the difference on the way to
