that people elected long before the pyramid, technical and logistical feet that symbolized the impossible for you see it. the stones tell the story of a powerful resolution. what exactly happened as a 10000 years ago? secrets of the shown age starts december 22nd on the w and the they say the devil was proud to but soon so well as to notes to the fasting label is helping design the spacing vanessa's new mission to the moon. these trips swearing to just be the proverbial leap forward for mankind. they'll
12:31 pm
also bring major business opportunities to the us and beyond. more on that, coming up also on this edition of major data, we use business magazine to come pick some help you fly. we investigate the use of poke 5 in jet fuel oil or the environment of south american nations space and economic di. lemme attending a city into a sponge, how copenhagen plans to protect itself from funding. now it's been 50 years since a human last set foot on the moon, but in 2024. that may well change with mass as awesome as 3 luna mission. if the us space agency has its way, people could soon be taking a residence on us rocky satellites, and it's not just science that he expected to spend often more than 50 years. no, sir, it's heading back to the me and not just for
12:32 pm
a short visit. so the 1st time humans attend lives and works at the us space agencies. multi phase awesome is mission is paving the way for permanent moonbase, and many of next is contracts going to private tech companies. you need housing, you need the ability to communicate a back to earth, but also to other places on the surface. there's all these needs that you have just like we have needed here are there's needs that you have for living on the moon. and that's as looking for the commercial sector to fill that in the fast phase of the mission in 2020 to an on demand space capsule over to, to mean to $25.00 days in 2020 for us to know what to do to make the journey so assess time, russia, china and india, and i would say planning missions. but the moon is an inhospitable place. temperatures hit a 100 degrees celsius during the day and minus
12:33 pm
a $170.00 at nights, plus there's no oxygen. so how will scientists conduct research that you're asking, what are the, the capabilities that are most likely to be developed? i think it's ones that are centered around what it takes to keep an astronaut alive and connected. and that kind of basic range of functions that they need to to do. there is money to be made and meeting the needs of the main checklist. above all, through the infrastructure required to search for war to control of materials. nice, there was investing in the development of unmanned robots likes to invite the noun rates that it's set to tap the large quantities of water found the means pose together with the vehicle developed by the american company, astra bostic technology. the general major is, is also working with lockheed martin on development of
12:34 pm
a battery pilot. the new robots this districts that in the most important element is water. for example, to produce hydrogen or oxygen as propulsion for further emissions. and the launching from the surface of the moon will then be much cheaper than from earth, as well as for launching satellites around the earth. and you have the mic. no, that can naturally important results as regulus noon dust. and there's plenty of is not the plans to extract it using special mining robots which are currently in the 1st stages of testing. the named us will be used to construct houses. 3 d printers will print the building pots initially on us and later on the moon itself to save on transportation costs. and this is what the finished modules could look like. get it out with furniture for like a comfortable house. the community would also need electricity and internet. nokia
12:35 pm
plans to set up a full g network. that space is the ultimate hybrid. it is a, a, a very unique area where countries get advantages from and there is a whole bunch of unexplored opportunities on the moon. is the opportunity to signal leadership, to the rest of the world, saying here, look how strong our capabilities are. but also there's, there's real value in be there. the most lucrative cautious space exploration is space rockets and reading the way is even less company space x. here launch rockets are being built for the said and for the stages of the ultimate mission. they'll be able to transport tons of materials to the main. nasa is investing billions and that development several launch attempts have already failed about success is likely only a matter time moisturizers before
12:36 pm
a moon base. the assumption is you need mass is comparable to those for the international space station or even more in orbit, and they need to be continuously supplied. and you have to imagine the same for the moon. and so that the asked or no. so let's say look stylish on the next me mission . fashion company, prada is co designing the seats. the moon is endlessly fascinating and currently inspiring many new business site is not keeping ours pointed sky with, let's talk about and travel here. the your opinion is that, but it needs to be more environmentally friendly. that means powering planes in a way that small sustainable, one solution that outlines are looking to is the use of animal fats in fuel. so could pigs really help you fly? how about flying from paris to new york with the equivalent of 9000 pigs in your
12:37 pm
tank. one environmental great. what town? lots. what it would take to fuel a plane or was that distance picks, problems, office font which can be used in aviation field. it's some things that you're clean union wants to see more of in the future. we use animal fat because uh below a quality animal fats are relatively easy to convert into sustainable aviation fuel animals, diesel. and the processing equipment that we have is, is a relatively set to. ready with some adapt taishan to to type those feed stocks. so mad i like ryan is going to start using animal fences soon as possible. but no life still can we flow to to field. instead of thoughts is to be taken from meat, industry waste and then added to ordinary kerosene. but why go to the trouble?
12:38 pm
there is a growing demand to use animals that india visual sector of within human. this will refuel to you because they will be counted as sustainable allegation, fuels refill you is a political agreement aimed at cutting c o. 2 emissions from aviation across the european union plan using unable fastcase. com. but other industries that rely on unable thoughts for the production, like the cosmetics and food industries, i'm worried that wouldn't be enough to go around. talk through pick stone elementary schools. the problem is that the more you direct them to bass reduction . so the bigger issue you have for these, and this is the have to find the benefits available. since you've done that is our festival on. and these are all notes over the phone. well, um that has the cheapest option available and having the most similar
12:39 pm
appropriateness done and will fits have issues connected to deforestation to human rights violations and many other problems. many environmental risk via palm oil could become the number one alternative, low palm oil means more palm oil times patients, which usually come at the expense of the rain forest. it's important to note as well that the european commission recognizes that and that the regulation being developed for aviation refill you aviation sets a cap of 3 percent of animal fat derived sustainable aviation field. however, this translates according to our reputations, to more than $1000000.00 tons of additional animals. but ultimately flying last may be the only way to bring down combinations across europe. protecting the environment can also maintaining of financial hits in the short term. as many businesses will know and south american economies are also being confronted with
12:40 pm
that fact, the region is in the midst of something of an oil rush, these nations around the world is equal, tentative t training and russian supplies is helped bring much needed income to poor a latin american countries, however, the benefits aren't being felt everywhere and certainly not by the environment. that's why some countries attending that back some of the trend, the bigger houses, bigger bridges, bigger plants. it was ones one of the poorest countries in the region. now, the tiny south american nation of diana is one of the worlds fastest growing economies because of oil. okay, and it isn't alone. countries across south america are pursuing new drilling projects. others are on a different path folders in ecuador, rejecting governments really, plants. columbia says it's done with new fossil fuel projects to focus on renewables. you know, so to those we have this in conjunction of water, sun and wind, at the same time, at the same place in the me model that one confidence,
12:41 pm
2 different approaches to the wealth buried underground. but which one is right? the diana joined the ranks of the world's boy produces for the 1st time on friday as us or company, exxon mobiles said it'd be gone, producing crude off the coast of the south american country, making the i know this video was from december 2019, but changing guy on a really started for years earlier. that's one exxon mobil made the 1st of a series of major oil discoveries offshore. over the years, the findings of total, an estimated $11000000000.00 barrels, new oil wells are now set to come on line throughout the decade. growing guy on his production by hundreds of thousands of barrels at a time. by 2028, the country could be pumping 1200000 barrels a day, making it one of the world's top oil producers. that could change everything for
12:42 pm
the country. guy honest sits on the north east coast of south america. it has roughly 800000 residents in 2019 it's poverty rate was nearly 50 percent according to the world bank. now the economy is growing by double digit figures, and that growth is already visible. every building that's going on is 4 stories or, and 5, every really these you might have seen before is being transformed into for the in the oil boom is also brought new problems, locals, complaint of rising costs. and not everyone is profiting immediately to that has a stop guy on his neighbors from looking at their own offshore projects. brazil is preparing to develop oil blocks along its northern coast. so is there a non, which is working with french driller to tile energies and all of this at a time when new oil projects technically should be, think of the past in south america, many new projects and both offshore drilling. that's especially attractive to investors as the oil, as easy to access, keeping costs low,
12:43 pm
but much of south america's oil wealth is still on short. and overall production there has been falling after decades of lower investment. that's a traditional ex borders like mexico and venezuela, the hardest. their output has fallen in recent years. in that case, how long does it make sense to continue new drilling, growth, and demand for oil should slow significantly this decade, driven in large part by the rise of electric vehicles. peak demand could soon follow. but so far there are few signs that global demand will plummet. we think that the kind of oil demand, the following story play me see if you, whether your way, whether your columbia, whether your so the right of the you are to look, to extract every last spiral from these rest of law. i don't think the demand is going to be that, but there are growing reasons why south american countries might hesitate to drill,
12:44 pm
including opposition in their own country, every single time that i know most people have been going through the reverse. it goes through all of these a consistent impact of the community. jorge espinosa as part of an organization in ecuador, that opposes government truly in yes. so need national park. yes. and he is considered to be per square meter, one of the most by diverse regions on earth. it's also home to several indigenous tribes. the block and dispute has been estimated to hold 1700000000 barrels of oil . and the government has been drilling there for years. in august, protests restored a major victory with voters across i could work clearly rejected the drilling in a referendum. it's not just equity where we're public concern over drilling is growing. brazil state oil, producer plans to drill in an offshore region known as the equitorial margin. it's right next to the mouth of the amazon river. the protestors in the country have pushed hard against the move. no south american government has become as vocally opposed to oil as columbia, as president gustavo pittsville has moved to band fracking and suspend new oil gas
12:45 pm
and coal exploration. he's called oil an addiction and said that his country needs to focus on the transition to renewables. instead of the how to model. i see why they let the jungles burn. while hypocrites persecute the plans the convention most to hide the disasters of their own society. to see that they ask us for more and more coal mine more and more oil to come. the other addiction to new york that of consumption out about that of power. other that of money, little while they have them live in the middle. columbia has around 7 years of oil left at its current production, the country says, and they will likely depend on that revenue for some time. and it's no small amount of money. in 2022 revenues from oil exports added up to about 20 percent of the government's planned budget for the following year. so guitar says tourism and clean energy exports can make up more of that revenue. but even with
12:46 pm
a solid base of clean energy, much of it hydro power, columbia has imported more electricity in recent years than it's ex, ported, and tourism figures would have to jump dramatically to begin to approach fossil fuel revenues. and this is the tricky part of the global transition away from oil, the obligations of individual countries, especially those that are poor to countries, there have the same responsibility to limit fossil fuel projects because of climate goals, or maybe even a greater one because of the amazon basin with local c, resource extraction as a scourge or as in guyana, an opportunity to improve their lives that they won't be lectured about. that is a big position, a government here that is, we don't want to hear from the 1st or the developed countries said we must restrain, want be done because they've been pumping through those uh, you know, hundreds of years and producing, destroying the far as we have a right to be able to develop our resorts is even if the consequences of continued oil drilling on
12:47 pm
a global level are quite clear. for south american countries at the oil cross roads to different directions. no simple answers. the many thoughts of the world are having to reckon with the effects of climate change. the prospect of a will know what the future means. cities, the pricing themselves for dry, some is and flooding. when the cold weather comes, the day is capital. copenhagen knows all too well the devastating impact of inundation. the city was completely flooded in 2011. tens of thousands of people lost their electricity supplies, and the damage amounted to around 800000000. your rose. the collective sense of trauma has led to a dramatic re think of how the city operates in the hopes the history would not repeat itself on the 2nd of july 2011. this is what copenhagen looked like. dead draughts floated in the stormwater after the wants of the powers into your kind of brain, a quarter of the foundation locust of sick in the aftermath. and one even died of
12:48 pm
blood infection. but it didn't still fit in full out of the last 6 years. the city has seen i've known the cloud bus, but it's conventional stormwater system con, do with news. some are on the wall is full of similar stories, and it's getting was copenhagen of leading several cities around the world that getting a redesign as climate change is making rain for less deductible and more dense. sometimes a brave, like designing playgrounds to flood went deep into the heart of copenhagen to find out how exactly you flag proof of city of this scale. if i was, it was 5 years ago. this 3 who don't have been to, but instead they may have been an s u. v stuck in congested traffic. they square as one of our own $300.00 spots in copenhagen chosen for me cofer. it used to be a busy round about that it has now become a wooded area in the middle of the city. it's one part of the plans don't
12:49 pm
copenhagen into a kind of giant's sponge for the next 100 years after the devastating 2011 fletch is here that i met a young joshua, some of the head of the cities cowed both management plans. who do i mean that they wasn't able to wake up, call the position to decide the at that time that's read a need for getting a lot of out of the city very fast. they ask for a pay. how to do this in a table weight. it could be expand to sewer system or could we do it in multiple way? maybe they had the rain bought at surface and at the same time, make a decision to be the waste from or reinstate the mall by diversity. and so didn't mom meet and these are facing in the city. so you on scheme worked at the sound about into what it caused the green component of the code was punishment, klein invisible side control in plain sight, that's a small con. mm hm. because to all the way more than i mean if the water continues to come and the cost is. ready road here in a lot of ponds for hers in the, in this connected to the see these little link phones being built on across the
12:50 pm
city to hold excess water from land phone. but it's not just on some projects, a smaller, but still hold water like green roof. less noticeable, a wide spread climate inlets that look like ordinary janes, the bigger and in areas with the higher risk, all based on the map, young steam device of how the city is likely to flood in a toad. boast event. on march of the 2000000000 euros given to the water department is going 20 me does underground into the backbone of the projects, the tunnel with this kind of dense of an area you cannot solve the problem. just been green solutions. this is jessica 1000 costs. we look for the city water department on a giant tunneling project. 500. you can do all sort of things on the surface and all of this you can remove maybe search a 50 millimeters of rain. but if you're getting 150 or 200 millimeters of writing, you need to pick system. so really transport water away. there's no wave also
12:51 pm
couldn't get into the hava without making it tell me like this. the new tunnel network is 3. me doesn't die meter and drums from 18 to them. it goes across the city. the tunnels would carry water from the bones and the roofs to us the harbor. but they still have another function, so the rest of the are to walter can be stored here instead of in the sewage system and slowly release into the hub that keeps the water quality in check. and so people in copenhagen can swim in the harbor and the canal system through the end of the tunnel step. and again, in a storm, if you have a heavy storm wave stop cutting funding industries, we just opened it up and the can, the transport all the water through the pumping station into the, into the harbor. okay, so it was of the empty, the strange that will still be was the industry. and so i mean, it's not completely dry, but we'll go from from half between half and one meters down to, to 10 centimeters sensing the dispatcher. mm hm. and how much water can this whole
12:52 pm
system deal with the, the, the amount of water that can be transported and the system is determined by the pump station to have at the end of the pumpkin to live a 20 cubic meter per 2nd. l 20000 meters per 2nd. know, however you will, expressive, and as soon as you have it, have a storm allowed and you stop getting was in the streets, it will stop and it will just keep m to the many cities are in the process of measuring that on sponging is not every city has as much free space or as business or post some, a much more dense and still developing. so many are calculating out of time. it proved themselves based on their own differing needs. beijing, for example, has a water shortage problem, and if designs relies on retaining water, a china is actually leading the world with over 60. or if it's all the 600 cities planning a redesign, john joseph deallocated, the only 800000000 euros for the project over 5 years. and has been green roofs and
12:53 pm
rain gardens. but it's still struggling with flooding and 2021 because it's not easy. the indian city of, of chan name on by and what to you, i holding against the studying during the month. so i'm water shortages for the rest of the of the 2nd part is not a problem or i am copenhagen has is really high what the table i'm so that's what the, every way that's why i'm on a bus that's about i'm on my way to an old block in the center of the city, calling hobbin park and the integrateds both green and great infrastructure. this bob walks on 3 levels. the 1st is the rose garden under which water from the surrounding areas is storage. disorders can also function that as a result of water resource during dr. periods for the cost to keep the kind of the product clean. if this store is saying is field, we'll stop feeling this thoughts brown. see over here. this is at a lower level than everything else, so it can receive water easily and be filled up as soon as the water starts to overflow. when it could look like this. and then there's the one.
12:54 pm
when it is a mess of code, both a wall comes up here to close off this compounds. and this thing behind me would go into a giant basin that stalls the a few of the projects have been financed by taxpayer money. but most of the funding is linked to consumption, to a levy on the water bill of tombs and companies. and if it costs explodes too much, then we'll say, okay, we don't do it, but then there might be some more damage is locally. mm hm. and you informed the citizen that they have to protect their feelings. but even with this much investment adapt ation to changing reinforcement only go so far with this done is kind of be able to handle the worst case scenario. in terms of flooding and stumble, you have to decide what kind, what size of storm, and that will always be a storm that is bigger. so that's it. so is the probability and the protection of
12:55 pm
climate change. so how often will this happen? but there's always will be a rain fall that could be even bigger so, so you'll never protect it. 100 percent. but it gives us having protection from front of a sudden probability and then you would lose so much. so your investment is compared to the risk of loss and that's the size of investment we're making. that might sound like resign pragmatism, but copenhagen's been implementing it's cloud based management plan for more than 10 years. other cities or know does watching very closely. we hang up the cost of investing now to lower the loss in damages, climate change, it's likely to bring around the world. so they have a, we're taking you to the klaus and well beyond. that's it for another edition of maids data. we use business magazine, you can find more episodes on our website, and if i don't see you over that, i'll catch you next time. again the
12:56 pm
12:57 pm
the, actually we don't have a choice thing. so we have little time list to save the planet. so we have students who become as fast as possible. can we abandon fossil fuels completely? some are pioneering the energy transition today. for them, the future is already here. their renewable revolution. in
