is no longer need and lightest textile waste gets stranded here. all about the final stuff in the global fashion industry, the fast fashion watch now, on youtube, the living room, single pools green facades help to the heat, the exploited workforce race and 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 still ingrained in our lives that it's

made it into pop culture. coffee also, there's a lot of fun and i can dream fast. i always get a copy when i watch radar. you know that this is, excuse me, a damn fine cup of coffee. put your morning campus, you know, might not be guaranteed. climate change is threatening coffee, production, drought rising temperatures, and the regular rainfall are ruining coffee harvests. some studies say the amount of suitable land for coffee production could shrink by half by 2050 without investment in bass fix 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 out of coffee. 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 results. coffee region of amena she had eyes wiped out fast waves of coffee trees. coffee price is search 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 pest and disease. 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 as a plant it 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 rob ago. it's sibling robust as a more resilient plant that 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, as 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 in that of some type, it's the 3rd spread by like, sheets, new toyota, toyota garcia as an, as no botanist who's worked in central america vietnam. and you gone to various acute settings that's and that's a failure to because it's how smart 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 coffee. a center filler, for instance, is making a splash. it's a rare and threatened species from west africa to tolerates much warmer temperatures and actually taste comparable to rebecca. while the variety oh 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 10 to 12, but they've rustic fights, 5 minutes use them. 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 copy 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 costs you pay, the same must've been here just minutes ago. my set of compass goes from one row of

coffee bushes to the next, where the women who work in the courtyard cuz 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, on federal police to coffee plantations in the brazilian state. has minnes rice. they want to track down day labor is believed to be working on the slave like conditions the 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,

even by you skipped david to the country with a history of 300 years of slavery as a patriarchal culture. now that neither values nor respects workers, right? it was pretty, it was due dates of the board is the team is investigating anonymous reports, things referral to most other composts needs to keep a level head some example, but yeah, i just got a police here, but 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, eldon's gods get it, has at 1st glance, 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 without protective clothing and follow from earning money. his debts amounting. let me think about it. i mean, i have to pay for any tools i use. there's no way out as 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 then 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 farm is not on site, only the fulman. 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 foreman defends himself . the men wanted what they go to, it's a mock. i'm building the lights valley. 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 them 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 daughters potato. 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 to lose, 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, somewhat fainting from

a lack of will to 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. one of the sales going to be a staff condemned to human rights violations, but says that had been no evidence of them. it also says there was no direct contractual relationship with 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 work is like suppliers and it corresponding the knowledge number of indirect suppliers in complex supply chains. complete, permanent monitoring is unfortunately not feasible. 5 con coffee plantations, administer rice. the team of investigates has faces numerous obstacles. and it's

what farm is there often elected by cellphones in advance. they know inspectors are coming. the owner says there are no workers here. we don't believe him, and we'll take a look even since our shops. the instincts were right. workers have just been picking coffee cherries in quite an quantity park where is that a lot of the water is still cold. the workers were just here in kentucky. you know, i'll see you. i hope well, but suddenly we see someone the mind stops with lots of things climbing. he was just out for a walk. but then 2 more work is discovered. don't forget, you take me off, man. does she know the man 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 work is a more afraid of undoing the boss and snakes like going on the maya. if i had complained about working conditions in a court of law, i, i'd never work on a farm 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.

nonetheless, 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 comp. how does it adopt solar panels as far as the i can see here in the desert, in the northern positive and i'm on go to china is building one of the world's largest solar power plants are interview 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 to a different all the are. we will have completed construction of 8 gigawatts of

capacity by the end of 2025. bring 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, a being expanded and new coal fired power plants being approved. a few hours drive from the new solar font. we're 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 are 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 minor 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. hello. hi c o. i didn't call you my business is doing. wow. now there are coal mines operating here. there's more business. there's a lot of people passing through to hire people. 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 gully, a prosper us in order, for example, the city government commission, the development of a lavish centre, a number of years ago, with a population of 1400000000, china is hungry, the energy, coal is inextricably linked to its decades of economic growth. but china has been 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. although coal power can support the integration of renewable energy into the power makes, he advises restraint with all the new projects and backs innovation and renewables . whether already and the course there are other ways to try to help them better integrate nose into our power grades. and 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 and some parts of the country. the fact that this is a consequence of man made climate change is usually a 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

strengthen fossil fuels as security and backup on the cold will play and the central role jobs, how central, but the all structural challenges the regional electricity grades and not sufficiently interconnected. many parts of the country now won't coal to insure 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, either now just carpet emission will go out. our local emissions will go out and will have an impact on the, on the air quality which matters to the a big house. so this minor coal is both a cuss and a blessing. it creates jobs, but it also has its risks. because i had a few accidents in the mines,

i no longer wanted 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 solar puck, we learned that the energy generation here has so far remains and, and 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 of a hotel. the left of the rest bikes can 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 cortez and singapore, to help cope with the hot and humid climate. but these appliances are part of the problem because they contribute because they, in temperatures and the studies architecture and the level design would that she's identified a vicious circle as well. but she a situation in single pores that's underway, their residents and more and more concrete. in or have risen twice as fast rest of the world for years.

but even for him, you can see right when you saw a little bit for sliding here it's it's all the costs and the humidity is picking up as simple as it is effective. as of building you can standing here, just close, be it by right. i can feel these heat reduce significantly because and photo synthesizing the engine and actually basically 4 percent of the way that biochemistry going around in the blood drops the immediate heat actually drops. and that makes a big difference. rolling on this wall, as of june system, provides the siri,

nutrients were the twice a month. and the natural advantages especially cheaper and lower. so you're saving as well. so to save a few $1000.00. but this is another building that illustrate here we can make this put implants are completely exposed. temperature is a whopping 53 celsius, but combat rising temperatures with greenery alone. it's and allowing more space between them. the new ample has solar cells on it's at 0 emissions, which is here. the shows us. it definitely keeps students cool.

it's reuse throughout the premises. the building the forest. there's some truth, some building stuff, very tall. some trees. so trying to bring back for gates is very important to try each other. so nature base solution to this hotel boards, the leaves and green terraces and got the single floors chewing and vicious long term are to be planted by $26.00 and the plan is no one will have to walk more

than this single poor the reset. this allows them to be lowered with individual a thermal image. single port is showing up on the old buildings were energy if the whole city would be one single policy per se, asia and and isn't that. unlike other both the city state can of the city state can afford to do so the,
