the m s r and jeff are up to carry in x during modern law styles and committed to amy and the where he left his trees. amazing people chewing victory this week dw, the how i remember in the past, like 20 years ago. they're like, no, but now they're here. what are the big templates advisor, which on every single day to get i was here kind of the rest of was drawing out will be left without energy. they used to live a good life. now there is no farm to plot the rivers dry. waller. how many good. it's no nasa. what can we do to save all the time?

the 2023 is on track to be the hottest year on record. the consequences of climate change can no longer be overlooked with heat waves, droughts, and floods, destroying livelihoods around the planet. and one thing is clear. planetary heating can only be limited by rapidly phasing out coal, oil, and gas. so this man was perhaps not the obvious choice as president of this use. un climate conference, top 28, taking place in dubai. white stilton, i'm at l. java as minister of industry and advanced technology in the united arab emirates. and also happens to be head of the states oil company video, but energies the notes and cannot be the on the,

on more than $130.00 political representatives from europe. and the us have demanded to be dropped as president of the climate conference to no avail. saudi arabia is the 2nd largest producer of oil after the u. s. u, a. e. iraq. iran and kuwait, also in the gulf region, are likewise ranked among the world's top 10 oil producing states. between 20162020. the fossil fuel accounted for over a 3rd of gross domestic product in the gulf states. that revenue helps pay for economic development, but it's also funding the transition to renewables. at the same time, the goal for reaching has already been impacted by the consequences of climate change from drought to flash floods, and rising sea levels, saudi arabia and the u. a. e. have seen huge expansion and renewable energy use in recent years. just recently the emirates announced their net 0 target for 2050.

those plans involved new clean energy investments totaling $54000000000.00 by 2030 . that's a positive move. um, but we see that the policies to actually meet their target are still not there and we see they're actually planning to increase. so for example, fossil gas consumption and they're still massively planning to increase their oil and gas production, which will also lead to higher machines. but the gulf states aren't the only ones investing massively, a new fossil fuel project. in fact, almost all of the top 20 fossil fuel producing countries plan to produce more and 2030. and they do today. the international goal of limiting global average temperatures to $1.00 degrees celsius above pre industrial levels could be buried once and for all. that's despite both the oil states and fossil fuel companies, not being short of money for more investment and clean energy. exxon mobil for

example, reported record revenue is a 399000000000 dollars this year, and profit so $55000000000.00. the company is continuing to invest in oil and gas. so what's preventing more active climate protection? you ask, what is it that's that's in a way the imperative of status? well, the way money works, the numbers of people who are pressured, some of the oil and gas companies because they weren't doing as well as the ones that weren't doing stuff on the climate. look at the pressure, you know, a bunch of asset owners and managers in new york and elsewhere in the world of been under to make more money. so put it down, degreed. g r e, you do agreed. instead of phasing out fossil fuels, companies are favoring investments and carbon capture and storage systems, or c, c. s, comp president job or is also promoting the technology. c, c,

s will definitely be needed if the world is to reach net 0 because the systems can remove c o 2 from the atmosphere. but the technology is still very expensive and not yet sufficiently scalable. critics like use oil producing countries and other proponents of green washing, the aim to secure our profits, while smoking hopes that efficient climate protection is possible even without a quick end to fossil fuels. it's clearly a distraction and we think countries, you know, sort of bearing their head in the sand, you know, behind you know, the promise of cynthia when actually it won't solve the problem. and we do need to focus on other, you know, solutions that can really reduce emission no international climate conference to date has ended with an agreement to phase out fossil fuels. in the long term. the issue is set to take center stage and this year's political debates. while the policies of producing countries are headed in the exact opposite direction,

the oil co gas fossil fuels to make up a wandering, 80 percent of the global energy mix. and despite the glaring downside, so many countries remain firmly committed to the sale. so 12 in southern poland population around 50000, many of its residents knew tearing the 1970s to work in the power pounds and the mcknight, coal mine these days 1st belong to the po miss energy group. pga. pilots cut off. now as i'm know, the power plant behind me is the biggest demetria of greenhouse gases in the anti europe in union. so gomez pumps out over $30000000.00 tons of carbon dioxide and the almost done with an cool it's a symbol of proteins. traditional dependence on calls and you define,

go out and shut it down about $30000000.00 tons of harmful c o 2 each year, making bell hot, tougher loan, bigger producer of greenhouse gases, the island also the vakio, a situation that green piece wants to put them into to decades it's been cooling for the closure of coal fired power station. lots of other people got tons for months improving. we have to phase out called by 2030 if we really intend to implement the power. so greenland, thank god, using center with another look at what's happened over the last few years is human . so should that us uh, j. yeah, the energy transition away from fossil fuels has completely passed the government fine as well. and that's what i'm not saying that a good that's now your biggest brown coals fi plot produces about a 5th of polish energy needs the upgrade to a p d. so that will be shut down and stages under the coal phase, out between 20502036 that were also close to close. open cost binding has shortly afterwards up to now pylons has nope that hits the climate policies opt out. so if

enabled it to continue subsidizing its cold pumps, pg refused to talk to us on camera or left us visit the power pump hops because of the environmental pollution and its impact on local residents. health. tall soap said, well yeah, man, looks as a alex we've noticed unimed visible enemy in the area that is shortening the lives of people who live, hey, hope and get elected albany, which is something we have spent. the dust itself can spread over many kilometers. get this being so it's taking years of people's lives was go increasing the incidence of asthma as well as the number of heart attacks and strokes. little bit protect us. my bill got back to the photo but by law. despite the health risks, the majority of residents and bill hotels remain opposed to the shut down of the ground, cold pump. or for the for the number, we are very much against the mind being closed. it accounts for lots of jobs here. the economic situation could deteriorate. was i'm interested in something without the mine they'll have to of would be a village with 2000 people. is that much of

a gun? so, you know, it's a bad idea. what about the people who came here to each other? i'm worried that no one has a plan for the future of the town afterwards. that a some yes, i'm one of the minds very 1st employees lives here. they owned for no escape. now retired, he devoted his life to the coal industry. the engine as story began with the ticking of the coal mine and 1974. is that all one of sugarloaf out to the potatoes microphone will the engineer talk then? a group of young engineers got together from across poland. the concern is that they were full of enthusiasm for the project. them no loss rentals. yes, he still has a passion for mining today. and so the community spirit and customs such as the annual pay of festival with it specially designed bellmarks working at the mines

was the best time of his life. but jimmy's as a zip code on the it makes me sad to think that the customers will vanish when the mind close. the vertical voltage is, or isn't there a bunch of articles and there were very few concrete pounds for the future of both of 12 and it's residents. this much is clear. one big company will not be able to replace the mining industry and attracting new businesses to the area costs money, which is why the e u has been supporting the transformation process since 2019 the private sector official agencies and n g a is need to work together assist to be a success. how is currently being discussed in a house to watch all the versions of so we work with young people with business people with local officials and community organizations, the board improve transport infrastructure from the environmental issue. so and

social cohesion are all important to them if you could log you or else i'd like to support. one problem is that the jobs and the coal industry paid so well that many families and bell hotels could afford to run several calls with public transport by the use. the train line was muffled. not we'll have to change as new companies to move to bel cutoff. you please is one of the major investors will only move a if the very good transport link so that without trains and buses we load a truck and a new stuff, a highly specialized sector. slide i t i t 2. why was it the lick night 5 po, blantan bell, house of do support the coal industry? it's not for ideological reasons. many have started a panels on every. the solar energy business is booming. also thanks to state subsidies because a couple this mom sells photo voltaic systems with revenue doubling every year end

to the 100. but almost everyone around here was bought a solar power facility, including those who look in the mine or the power plant, or is it just makes economic sense. so now that will have to still depends on your biggest industrious power plant. brussels wants to get people here on board with the use climate policies. it looks as though they come be persuaded the this i said like this blue fire on these couple rings all exist because of one element sofa. the yellow substance can be both completely homeless, unexpectedly poisonous. it's found in our bodies of food and also in volcanoes. if you've ever smelled a rotten egg or a fox, the culprit was sofa, but unfortunately, he can't up. also, it makes a highly toxic gas. it's also responsible for acid rain. it contributes to millions

of debts every year. extracting and burning fossil fuels means we're spewing it into the atmosphere. the story of sofa is both the lumen crisis and an environmental success. so far is one of the more abundant elements in the universe. you can find it in the oceans. the crust on the top. so got mustang of venus. it's also the 3rd most common mineral in our bodies. they contain around a 150 grams of sofa, but in its southern pill form. it's both tasteless and odorless. the compounds of it are found in broccoli, cauliflower, eggs, and onions. sofa is actually responsible for the strong smell that garlic makes when it's crushed. and the sofa compound gives broccoli and color flour that distinctive taste. and if you find yourself with a particularly smelly onion, that's because of sofa to it's also found in water from wells or springs. another

place you'll find sofa is in the sky a little bit. so, so for doc set up, map missed here, conserve is what we call cloud condensation nuclei, essentially, little platforms for clouds to build around. the kaos fonda is a climate scientist and research and clouds that can be more reflect is an inbound smartlight back to space. so sofa actually slows down global warming, but sofa also has a dock side. is one of the most reactive elements on the periodic table. so it changes form easily when in contact with other elements. it's also super flammable . the sofa coaching is on, keeps matches spinning long enough to light a candle. burning sofa can look like a hell scape, like a dis, indonesian volcano. ready watching a match creates a small quantity of a sofa gas, and this much is

a mini version of the sofa pollution problem. those gases fall into by the self of molecules with other elements, a toxic. one of them is hydrogen sulfide sofa with 2 hydrogen atoms. it's found naturally in wetland swanson. hot springs another enough to be solved a gas is sulfur dioxide. something we've been, holman, yourselves with on a large scale for a very long time. so software relation is meant liquids by bidding for sealed fuels. edwin's son, gun jada researches, chemical pollution in the environment and also industrial activity such as refining petroleum. it's not made. totes fossil fuels is naturally contained sofa. the extraction leads to some of the sofa escaping and forming those gases. toxic gas is also released when fossil fuel was a band. another source of sofa pollution is from metal production. some metal ols contain sofa purifying the metal combat for released sofa into the atmosphere.

fossil fuel use took off around the 1950s before all this information was available . but in the 1970s, people started noticing that the rain was more acidic than it used to be. too much cell for in clouds can react with other elements to form. so pure across it and i said, right, oceans, lakes and rivers become more acidic, hunting, aquatic life. it also affects the ph of soils. we know plants, the free and reduced density inspect temp of june th, regarding all the cheese or supplements of fits how the plants are going to up. so the nutrients that they need to grow. but it doesn't need to rain down or nose to have devastating health effects. if you light a match a couple times or if you like, sitting around a campfire. um, you know they are placing it, but it isn't good for you. but if you're not doing that all day every day, it's not going to be that bad for your health. whereas, you know, if you're living in beijing and your air looks like a piece, oops,

that's where it really starts creating various severe medical problems. and a lot of the sofa pollution is caused by burning coal. it's responsible for most silva pollution than any volcanic eruption when burned in power plants, the sofa can be removed from the emissions by devices cold struthers. but in sufficient money or infrastructure, that means that often doesn't happen. worldwide, china has been the largest emitter of sulfur in recent decades due to its heavy reliance on call. the resulting air pollution is responsible for over a 1000000 deaths per year. china has recently taken major steps to be, you saw for emissions and other countries. the amount of coal being burned is actually going up. when you electrify you wrote, you don't need to be some energy source in what is the image source that is that it . so that's called sulfur pollution from coal contributed to the near constant

london fog of the 19th century. people died from acetone. bronchitis, which still playing those living near oil refineries and coal plants today. and so for particles, also form pm 2.5. fine particles that are significant part of global air pollution . a. but it is an old bad news in recent years that has been a very big asset to stop. i sued rain on sofa gases. much of the sofa is removed from oil and gas during the refunding process before it's sold to consumers. the extracted sofa is tended to pesticides fertilizers on. so if you're accosted as a result of symmetric sofa gases have decreased significantly and regulations of getting 20 to 2020. so the 1st restrictions on shipping fuel but in now the last 8 or 3, there's been more studies about the health impacts and burning the steel in ports with a couple of studies suggesting that somewhere in the range of 226-0000 people globally,

you may die prematurely, you do to exposure to suffer docs. i pollution from shipping. removing solver from fuels has cause the dropping world wind pollution. but the still more suffering atmosphere than this should be show while regulations are important. a shift away from fossil fuels is the only thing that will tackle toxic sulfur gases for good. the so expanding renewable energy sources is key if we want to have a safe, clean future. the shift has already started europe and asia, in particular, a building more and more involved. so the funds assembled in 50 sweat and how much is insights comprising millions of solar panels? that size isn't everything.

in germany. this is either a delegation from a law. we is visiting an agricultural project and how to know a town outside berlin. growing on this farm crops are being grown under solar panels of the visitors from africa are here to see exactly how it works and we have the model for measure. but that just depend on uh, using the whole, you know, so we can't do much because we don't have the capacity to have machine out of the and everything like to put up to see. so i feel like if, as a government, if we can, uh do, uh, you know, the sort of from me can 10 things for beat the i agree bolt a company son farming has been cultivating fruit, vegetables, berries, and herbs here for 2 years now. so nearly anything can be grown under the solar

panels. the modules are positioned at a height that lets in plenty of daylight, but blocks potentially harmful direct sunlight. another advantage of the system is that the building components can be recycled, a new economy plus it's a 100 percent steel and glass enabled the last 50 years in africa. and it can all be recycled because the structures can be dismantled and result of the material has good salvage value and is always in demand. steel isn't always made to all the materials, and the modules can be used to build houses or storage shelves from baldwin high. and i'm good, that's good. i'm going to send you. i'm just trying to find when water slows over the modules, if it's raining or if they're being cleaned, it collects in a gutter system. this distributes the water evenly in the ground. it also enlarges the size of the water droplets, which allows more liquid to get into the subsequent. so the ground stays moist even in dr. periods after i'm assuming you offer 10 africa. we also have to use drip

irrigation to a vegetable cultivation to and you know, it will help companies because certain regions are now just completely arid. and so we collect the rainfall there is and dispenses in small doses using a pump powered by solar energy and all the summers are also getting dryer in germany. here. 90 percent of the crops are grown with the help of a drip irrigation system. that saves water, the electricity needed to power the system is less than one percent of the amount produced by the solar array. the students from the brandenburg university of technology are also monitoring the project to learn more. they're using sensors to study the micro climate. under the modules, they measure light intensity humidity and the temperature both in the air and the soil around the plants, roots us into some debts and see at regular intervals. they

also measure the rain that's been collected in these containers, wisconsin. so how can see how much the solar panels expand, the surface area protection rainwater will do in the i'm 50 state and we've noticed that in colder times of year, it's significantly warmer, under the modules and in the open air, on average, it's $1.00 to $2.00 degrees warmer, under the modules, and we found that during dry spells, it's significantly danver under the modules in the open air voice. the effects of to oftentimes they have animals also feel comfortable in the shade of the silver modules. the piles are driven into the ground and are sturdy enough to withstand changing weather, so there's no need for a concrete floor. the structures serve as airy, light field sheds for the animals sheltering them from rain hailstorm, birds of prey and scorching sun. the visitors from allow we are impressed with the environmentally friendly set up. that's why it has good fresh water like throughout

the country. one 3rd of the country is what, what, but when we go to a neighboring countries, for example, between that one i don't even have like. so if we're going to do a lot of this kind of for me who will be able to sell to a neighboring countries and make money into both cell economy in the supermarket and punch of strong south africa, customers can buy vegetables and herbs produced by some farming split for now only small quantities are available as they come from a small facility built for research purposes. it's located only a few kilometers away. here sun farming has been exploring how food, cultivation, and solar energy production can be combined. the researchers have been experimenting with different soil bases for the plants, yet it is an image in italy,

kitchen. we were plenty. it's the readings totally. because it did because she knew up into wonder flow. and here we are using quick afraid of us, and then raising the solar energy ended lent the boat. we could get a combination no need for diesel generators to produce power. here there are 2 vegetable seasons. a year in winter, broccoli and cali. flower are grown and in summer tomatoes build peppers and cucumbers. herbs and spinach are grown all year round. but drought is a growing problem in rural south africa to winter's in the northwest region are dry and cold while in the summer, violent thunderstorms and hail storms. rec, haven't gone crops as does the increasingly fear sun here? agri, well takes or angry p v can make a real difference. the
