and that's all from us, you're all up to date. global us is up next looking at how's climate change could affect your morning cup of coffee? don't forget there's always more on our website and our social media channels. himmel. and berlin, thanks so much for watching. take care the my name is elizabeth, i'm the whole bag said loud. thank you so much for joining in. welcome to don't hold bad. a lot of people do that. it's all about saying it aloud. that's what it being nosy bay like good. everyone to king, to check out the award winning called comment to hold back fast fashion as an environmental 9 a clothing graveyard image of land desert. this is where things wealthy industrial nations no longer need and lightest textile waste gets stranded.

fashion, watch now, on youtube, the living room, single pools green facades, help the heat down the exploited workforce. raise some brazil's coffee conversations, the sense of trouble brewing, how climate change is impacting the cultivation of offering, but comp, the coffee, the world's 2nd most consumed beverage. and so ingrained in our lives that it's made into pop culture. what is confused because there's

a lot of stuff before i go to sleep. i can 3 invest. i always have copy. what i watch read are, you know that this is, excuse me, a damn fine, couple of car. put your morning campus, you know, might not be guaranteed. climate change is threatening coffee, production, drought, raising temperatures, and the regular rainfall are ruining coffee, harvest some studies say the amount of suitable land for coffee production could shrink by half by 2050 without investment in base 6 farms. a productivity? yeah, we're in trouble for mr. brussel has the movie airplane board. are you telling us? absolutely, everything. not exactly. we're also called the brazil vietnam and columbia are the top 3 producers of rock coffee, being biggest importers, the us, germany, and france. today, people drink over 2000000000 cups of coffee worldwide. every day, consumption has almost doubled over the past 3 decades alone. south east asia is

expected to have nearly doubled the global growth rate as western noticing tastes and a rising middle class increase demand. and let's not forget china. starbucks plans to open a coffee shop every 9 hours so it can reach 9000 locations across the country by 2025. which means we need to be growing a lot more coffee. but climate and stability is already taking a huge toll on production. in 2021, a severe frost and brazil's coffee regional administrator highs wiped out vast waves of coffee trees. coffee prices, serge, nearly 13 percent re generation of the crops and ecosystem will take years. meaning the losses will continue, such as irregular temperatures also make the plants more vulnerable to pests and diseases. for the last 15 years, a rust epidemic coffee refreshed arrived in, in strong force across the central and south america. this is dr. vern law. she's ceo will read coffee research, a research non profit funded by the industry in central america alone,

1700000 people last work during that period. so there are human consequences to the challenges. part of the problem is the coffee plants are finicky. they go through a delicate flowering phase and it takes 4 years for a single coffee tree to get a 1st harvest. another problem is that out of $120.00, so species of coffee, we only drink 2 of them are rebecca and robust. or rather because the higher end stuff that has all those several flavor notes, we love the but is a plant that needs the temperature between roughly $18.21 degree celsius, around 30 percent shade cover, and plenty of consistent rainfall. it's more sensitive to high heat disease and produces fewer beans. over 60 percent of global production is a ra pickup. it's sibling robust as a more resilient plant, but tastes not as great and ends up mostly and stuff like instant coffee. and that's it. we're almost entirely reliant on just to varietals. coffee also has a small gene pool and at least 60 percent of wild coffee species are at risk of

extinction. this makes our current supply extremely vulnerable. copy research is so behind relative to what other commodities have. we can do so much with traditional technologies, just taking pollen from one place, putting it on another, creating a speed of something new, collecting data at a global scale, and it's not rocket science. it's very straightforward. what needs to happen. thankfully, there's some good news. so if the new new value is coming up and, and that are some type, it's the 3rd spread by like steve new data, toyota garcia as an, as no botanist who's worked in central america vietnam and you gone to the 30. so q 10 and that's kind of upset by you too because it's perhaps more accessible to farmers and that you see up to did. the starbucks recently announced it had develop 6 new varieties of coffee seats, including hybrids that resist leave for us, then generate higher yield in a short period of time. this is big news, considering the chain by is about 3 percent of all the world's coffee from 400000

farmers across 30 countries. a few researchers are also trying to fish species out of the wild configure a center filler, for instance, is making a splash. it's a rare and threatened species from west africa, tolerates much warmer temperatures and actually taste comparable to rebecca. while the variety that has commercial potential bringing wild species into production can only exist on a nice scale and will take decades. the bigger problem is that at least 80 percent of the world's coffee is produced, a small holder farmers. they generally work on a few heck, there's of land and don't have the resources to buy hybrid c blankets, which are roughly 40 down 160 percent more expensive than a traditional variety. that's what he says the same for them, but they've rustic fights, timing system. and not only having puppies, but also threes or other kinds of groups. you know, that will help a safety net given how hard it is to adapt in our current conditions. the future of coffee could look more different than we think as in your coffee could start coming from some unexpected places. experts say that countries like china and australia

have ramped up coffee being production and recent years and could become bigger players in the future. but for now or a coffee, addictions aren't going anywhere anytime soon. and the industry strategy to keep its pipeline is technology technology, technology. we are really focused on the technology, you know, needs, i would say in the next 5 to 10 years, we'll see a flush of new varieties. this will require work from scientists, governments, and everyone in the supply chain, but is consumers the best we can do is pay attention to sourcing the company. supply chain often lacks transparency, is it's bad for business. so what we can do is work with smaller suppliers who get more information on the origins and production conditions. their policy pays. the same must've been here just minutes ago. my side of compass goes from one row of coffee bushes to the next,

where the women who work here double fuzzy and they were just here. we want to find them and talk to them to understand the situation. we were accompanying inspectors from the ministry of labor, the public prosecutor's office, and federal police to coffee plantations in the brazilian state of minas rice, they want to track down day labor is believe to be working on the slave like conditions. the inspect does have discovered to women hiding in the bushes they've been working on, paid for over a month without any protective clothing, food, water, or access to a toilet the workers of afraid of the officials. but it's their employee is that the authorities, i'm looking to punish them both by just saying, just over a 100 years ago, workers here were slaves, objects, commodities, you buy, you get to the country with the history of 300 years of slavery. as

a patriarchal culture, now that neither values nor respects workers, right? so it was your day to this. the headboard is the team is investigating anonymous reports, things referral to most of the campus needs to keep a level head level, but yeah, i just got a police here. we were comfortable by the federal police involved because what we're doing can cause a lot of problems for the plantation owners. and in some cases, they might react violently. all those guys get it has heat up, says clones the next target. looks like a sole mail box. there's a coffee plantation in the teams suit and find what they're looking for. this mine is working with that protective clothing and follow from earning money. his debts amounting that he think about it. i mean, i have to pay for any tools i use. there's no way out. i have to work to pay the debts that just pile up and they make slaves out of us. i work and pay to do so. i

don't earn any money to buy food for homes and gets bad. i click on show out doesn't have a contract. i that he works 12 hours without to break. he says. the men sleep here on the flimsy makeshift beds. there are no closets for the few possessions, no privacy. the owner of the firm is not on site, only the foreman. he now has one week to respond. he has to let the men go and you have to pay the maximum rate for the work they've done. the fulman defends himself . the men wanted what they go say it's a mocking building by light scully. i don't see any slave labor. do you suppose this thing? why don't you go to their house and see what it looks like you like as a must have come post says that's a typical response. brazil is the knology is coffee exposure in the world. and

coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world. few people us themselves if it's harvested, in fact, conditions in humane working conditions and not only found on coffee plantations. last march inspectors fried 85 work is from a farm and southern brazil. they were hired by a sub contractor producing seeds for gym and company b, i ss, one of them is 15 year old daughter is a total. he was seriously injured on the job and had to wait for health. how is he says it was his mother who took him to a hospital. one of his toes has no power lines and all this. so hopefully we should have had proper shoot as a place to eat protection from the sun. coming in 40 degree temperatures, workers could only rest on the background, some of fainting from alaska volta. those who will of sick receive no pay didn't

waste. when we heard that the staff was behind the seed production, we were shocked because a company of this size should take an interest in the workers employed by sub contractors on the seals. going to be a set of condemn, unless the human rights violations, but says that had been no evidence of them. it also says there was no direct contractual relationship with the wilkins and says it's sub contract to sign agreements obliging them to his spec human rights. in the supply chains, yvonne entirely paid out 1670000 euros in compensation to the workers. and the social projects unimed tends to increase monitoring in the future. however, for us as a company, it writes working with more than 90000 direct suppliers and a corresponding the knowledge number of indirect suppliers in complex supply chains . complete, permanent monitoring is unfortunately not feasible. 5 con coffee

plantations in minnesota, rice the team of investigates, has faces numerous obstacles. and it's what farm is, are often elected by cell phone in advance. they know, inspect is that coming the owner says there are no workers here. we don't believe him, and we'll take a look. only been since our shops. the instincts were right. work is of just been picking coffee cherries in point contact requires a lot. the water is still cold. the workers were just here. sam, kentucky. you know, i've seen a lot, i hope. well, suddenly we see someone the man stokes reluctantly climbing. he was just out for a walk. but then 2 more work is discovered. no, not yet. you took me as a man. does she know the mine over this? does he what quintet?

yes, she says he was here this morning. to mock so much and there's no food, no toilet, no protective clothing. must a tempest shows us a poisonous snake that the work has just killed coffee. bush is called the workers . i'm more afraid of i'm doing the boss than snakes like going on the maya. if i had complained about working conditions in a court of law, i, i'd never work on farmed here again. my name would be tarnished. it would be as though i was a thief or worse model, be your name. the team is satisfied with the days with the mentality. if the plantation owners has to change, they say penalizing them is the only solution the climate change is a global issue. and one that will only be solved if we all work together. and on

the last, when it comes to costume solutions showing this is a key focus. it's responsible for around a set of global c o 2 emissions. and despite pledging to be climate neutral by 2016, still investing in co. how does it adopt solar panels as far as the i can see here and the does it in the northern positive and i'm on go to china is building one of the world's largest solar power plants, orange and you request is accepted, which doesn't happen often in this country, we even get a special tool with various representatives from the local government. as an official shows us what's already being completed and what is still to come on to

a different all the are. we will have completed construction of 8 gigawatts of capacity by the end of 2025, bringing the total to 912, which is the area is expected to increase. find fold in the next 2 years. around 28 percent of electricity generation and china comes from solar, wind, and hydro power. the country is aiming to be climate neutral by 2060. so it's all the most surprising that that's currently increased investment in coals. capacities are being expanded and new coal fired power plants being approved. a few hours drive from the new solar font. we were at one of the largest open coal mines in asia. production is reaching record highs. tons of, does he, coal, all turn spotted around the region in these red trucks? here in china is biggest coal producing provence and new mine is being developed.

underground mining is being digitized with less personnel and improved occupational safety. that's what this minus tells us. he doesn't want to be recognized for safety reasons. he's been working in mine since he was 15. i stay because i have no choice so far i don't have any better options that applies to most of us. there are a few alternatives around here. apart from coal mining, the only industry is agriculture. now the coal mining is ramping up. the local economy is doing well. stores have opened up. residents tell us, restaurants are also benefiting so high. see, oh, i can call you my business is doing wow. the zip code and the on the now the recall lines operating here. there's more business, there's a lot of people passing through to many of the people who work in the mine um

from the area. they come from other places ready to go off in its heyday coal mining made in among earlier prosper us in order. for example, the city government commission, the development of a lavish centre, a number of years ago with the population and 1400000000. china is hungry, the energy coal lives in extra kimberly, linked to its decades of economic growth. but china had being reducing coal production today, coal still accounts the 63 percent of electricity generation but now is this map compiled by an energy research institute shows new projects, upland all over the country, even in places where that is already lots of coal production. my june is probably

china's best known environmental impact. although coal power can support the integration of renewable energy into the power makes, he advises restraints with all the new projects and backs innovation and renewables . whether or would you add to the course, there are other ways to try to help them better integrate knows that into our power grades. one of that my basically energy storage and the other is, is about to all these different regional power grades. we can better coordinate those in the last 2 years, state media has reported energy shortages in some parts of the country. the fact that this is a consequence of man made climate change is usually it node hydro power plants have been hauled, hit by drought for china, energy security and independence, all the top priorities and it sees coal is the least complicated option. susan,

by protecting energy security is always our most important task. me. we will strength and fossil fuels of security and backup on the cold will play and the central role caution. true. but the all structural challenges the regional electricity grids and not sufficiently insight connected many parts of the country now, one coal to ensure energy security. and there's the lack of storage capacity for renewable energy's. my dream is worried about excessive coal capacities. now there we have to find our innovative ways to try to deal with this problem problem. otherwise, you know, the now just carpet emission will go up. our local emission will go out and will have an impact on the, on the air quality which matters to the public health. so this minor coal is both a cus and a blessing. it creates jobs, but it also has its risks. me because i had a few accidents in the mines,

i no longer want it to work in the industry. then i tried to start my own business, but it didn't work out during all tour, if the mega soul of hawk, we land, the energy generation here has so far remains and in among go to. yeah. so the transmission possibilities i'll be explode. clearly there are still major challenges ahead. if china is to make good on its commitment to a clean of future, the all cities are becoming as a whole to the left of the rest bikes to make life unbearable. if we keep pumping c o 2 into the atmosphere at the current rate, up in temperatures could rise by up to $4.00 degrees celsius. 2100

air conditioning units. are you big cortes and singapore, to help cope with the hot and humid climate. but these appliances are part of the problem because they contribute to rising temperatures. through e june yolanda studies architecture and sustainable design. with the help of a thermal imaging camera, she's identified a vicious circle as well for a small key to the increase the higher sheet. so it's not what further exacerbates the situation in single port is the rapid growth that's underway. there are more and more residents and more and more concrete. in recent years, temperatures and singapore have risen twice as fast as in the rest of the world. data set, good on has lived here for years,

but dealing with the heat every day is challenging. even for him you can see right when you saw me even a walking in and i'm still little it for sliding here. it's actually 10111011 o'clock in the morning is over cost and the humidity is picking up. data set around is an architect and box and list, affectionately known as the planned, pushed by. his weapon against climate change is as simple as it is effective. vertical green space is on the walls of buildings. you can feel when i'm standing here. just close beat by right. i can feel these heat reduce significantly because the plan's up was a respirator aspiring and photo synthesizing when the plausible to synthesize to release oxygen. and they actually basically picking away my compound off site for 4 percent. this is so when you have got that biochemistry going around in the city, you'll realize that c, o 2 level drops, the immediate heat actually drops. and that makes a big difference. 30 different plans species are growing on this wall of

sophisticated irrigation system provides the necessary nutrients. workers trim the greenery twice a month in the long term. it even has financial advantages. yeah, air conditioning costs inside it's actually cheaper and lower. so that's costs your saving as well. so spending a few dollars to spend a few, a few dollars to save a few $1000.00 is actually a very good business. new e junior's on the shows. i sent another building that illustrates what a difference green and we can make. this facade is partly covered in plants. the other surfaces, steel and concrete are completely exposed to the sun. the difference in temperature is a whopping 5 degrees celsius. but singapore can to combat rising temperatures with greenery alone. it's also promoting sustainable buildings and allowing more spaces in between them. the new university, for example, has solar cells on its roof,

hoping ensure net 0 emissions. professor vater set good on teaches here the shows us how simple ceiling fan is enough to keep students cool. of the it's all very open plants allowing a gentle breeze throughout the premises. the building is actually quite similar if you're going to forest this. i'm treat some buildings to a very tall, some trees. there's every, it's all the different layers as well. so trying to bring back for us, i could picture the city escapes is very important to try and involve designs of the future as well. so nature base solutions off pod in fossil of that and they look spectacular to this hotel and the center of singapore has won awards. it leaves and rings with flourishing green terraces and gardens single pour subsidizes sustainable architecture and is pursuing and vicious long

term goals. 1000000 new trees are to be planted by 2030 and so plan is to have so many parks that no one will have to walk more than 10 minutes to be surrounded by nature. this project is called cooling singapore. the researchers have programmed a digital twin of the city. this allows them to simulate. cold temperatures can be lowered with individual projects. a thermal image showing to these daily temperatures and single port is shown on the left. on the right, what it would look like if all buildings were energy efficient and sustainable, the whole city would be $1.00 to $2.00 degrees cooler. single power sees itself as a driving force for southeast asia in the fight against rising temperatures. and is investing billions on like other developing countries. however, the wealthy city states can afford to do so

the, the, the,

when i was younger, kind of the best one of the most part of choice. it was stigmatized my generation, these cannabis as a part of our culture. no, we're not doing that. he is a marijuana co, strongly conflict, but sometimes to unexpected reason. we the new young generations want to change our region lucky, older generations, equal rejected legalization. and then when generations class in 15 minutes on d, w, the one of main kinds, oldest ambitions could be within reach. what do you see?

it really is possible to reverse the researchers and scientists all over the world for you know, race against time. or they are peers and rivals with one daring goals to help smart nature, the more likes watching it. on youtube dw documentary, i tried several times. i went on 6 times to greece. is that all i have to spend life from 500 to 600. currently, more people than ever on the move worldwide in such a progress in life. you know, it's a very difficult journey. and one is very hard. they beat you, they think everything on, you know, stuff,

find out about some on story. and so migrant reliable news to migrate wherever they may be. the more than 33000000 people effected one 3rd of the categories of mushed. the 2022 floods and focused on what devastating the south asian state is responsible for less than one percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. but it is disproportionately impacted by the effects of climate change. 18 months after the heavy flood, many often struggling to rebuild their lives. dig it up the night before the flooding started, we had everything. today, all we have is our house. you have nothing else remains. you saw it's cold. you. i'm worried about what will happen besides god we don't expect help from anyone in the.
