of good farms and destroyed sides. what is the legacy of this wide spread races, depression? today? history. we need to talk about here, the stories, shadows of german colonialism. the oldest is the new young. well, let me explain. hello and welcome on sounds like everybody and you're all watching equally from fremont, good fashion refurbished for and i'm like that board the was in the settings, the size of the water. and then also one of my favorite cents. and this will be yours. not only on the
12:31 pm
e waste is going phenomenally in india, and i think it's time that really considered our consumption factor. should you'll be buying a new phone or is it better than yours or maybe buying or refurbished for a better idea? and what is these lights to dispatch you will find answers to these questions i'm none and looked at about and or to that's india is using in new ways to be with this massive problem of you waste in this next report. but obviously you guys are going to place the big tech companies will draw the didn't exist. it's a sunday evening and this market in north debbie is la still 1390000000 mobile phones, the solar globally at all 5000000000 mobiles estimated to be thrown away. but right here could be a solution for much of this waste. i'm in the north indian market and there's really nothing you can get to the people are just using whatever
12:32 pm
they have it on them to fix what's broken. because changes in the way products are made is changing this market and others like it without even for the 5 or 6 of us m o u m o u, that one. 0 yeah. when do you to do that? that one. and because people are choosing to buy new rather than repair e waste, and they'll mix up the majority of our overall toxic waste and it's happening all over the world. so many people are now working to bring this route, ban, mindset back in the retain this ingenuity and the culture of fixing was broken. but also keeping us like going to me, i'm here, i'm daily. there is back to figure out how all of this is going to sales and then my phone for 4 and a half years now, which is a relatively, very long time to on a smartphone. i'm going to challenge with my so i'll just see how much longer i can
12:33 pm
make it last. but i've also been very careless, uncompleted, rewarding my display as i looked it up and it costs 20000 refuse to buy a new phone on the same models. so i'm here to see what those, what getting into bed instead of a lot of i'm just not sure whether it's worth being a ton of them getting a new phone with a new buy cheap and the, the, the showroom quoted. $16000.00 repeats, which is more than half the price of the phone. so i'm not going to, i'm going to get a few more quotes from a different place. this is an informant and semi form, an electronic deposit. this is a gray area, some vendors may be authorize the, those are, those may not be registered. not all of them pay taxes. yeah. because they do, i mean they can offer cheapest services by cutting deals over or under the table. i'll find some look around or the other 7000 are the best thing to get in to get out of the navy
12:34 pm
sky and hoping that everybody has quoted me a different single. which means that, of course, as will stand there, then you have to have it and you have to find the best price, which does take a lot of time to think about. india has a long history of repairing, over replacing most read, gone those ones, how to call the other cielo, who fix solid ease of state and families for many generations. but it gets more nice. this tradesman specializes in only fixing the economic boom of the 9090 the 2000 and change this color completely with more money in their pockets and things getting cheapest. people started buying mall and somebody else happened. india went outside digits of every kind of payment is now done online from rick shows to coconut, brought to having a phone is now basically mandatory phones in, in the us for cheap and accessible that are more people with phones, then beds,
12:35 pm
all mattresses or chairs electronic devices to became an outlier to the old indian debank. gotcha. mainly because electronics companies don't allow for repair. gadgets have been accused of being designed for the dumb. it's called planned obsolescence companies have been taken to quote over it's, for example this here. apple is prepaying to be up to $500000000.00 in the us and settlements in a case like using them of slowing down old iphones. the italian government find samsung, 5000000 euros in a similar case, but found that updates slowed down devices. as a result of all this, e waste has drawn phenomenally in india, and many countries have had similar results and best stories of development. and after them's very little of this waste is formerly recycling. this is where electronics come in. this is the biggest electronics waste market in the front. the truck loads of discarded electronics come here every day and i'll
12:36 pm
jump on to local traders. these people separate them and sell the parts on the recyclers or other kinds of strap dealers. there's literally e waste everywhere. look at that here said was break down the deck to recover anything of value the results of this kind of informal dumping. i mean of this by what's meant to be a storm drain. but there's no space for water to flow. we saw a lot of people including and especially children, collecting anything of value and this scavenging comes at a high price, the lives gagne and mobility of an e. we as has been known to cause skin conditions and the 1st instance. but it's also been linked to problems with the liver and development of the brain,
12:37 pm
including a newborns it was very hard to film here and nobody really wanted to talk to me on camera. i met studies and have a research show of chemical pollution to ask what needs to happen to stop this to both on the production site, autumn consumption site. it will have to make a lot of adjustments on the production site that can see that how do you design products that us suppose they're going to design the product, which is mardell, letting nature. but that's what a vi a we'll just, we'll just starting a product because you cannot take you to the next level. the 2nd thing is about loading consumption is also because if we design products. but if it last with me for a long time, i am not likely to desponding, so my risk generation becomes reduced. tow thing is about we need to formalize or pass. we need to formalize refurbishments and by law. also,
12:38 pm
there is only that. how do we encourage this? i think that we have not been able to break to this 3rd thing is something the government is starting to work on. it launched a $14.20 to ensure that citizens have the right to repair around 50 companies of signing up sofa on paper. these include manufacturers of farm equipment, consumers, rubles, and also one bios as well as electronics. i meant the man in charge royd commerce thing, the highest chunky administrative office, the ministry of consumer affairs, went over the main points in case the product required. zip is a routine maintenance. it shouldn't be expensive, it should be easily accessible. and it should be noted li, available in the system of the consumer. so we put all that together and we are doing that i to repair a framework. most specifically, this would include access to information on how to repair,
12:39 pm
providing cheap and original step ups to consume of i'm fluid bodies and it also includes more specific call to action like that. all charges must be u. s. b c. by june 2025. you don't want to become in an impediment in the ease of doing business also. you know, it's a, it's a tricky thing. so i'm the one hand you want more business name. yeah. you want economy to grow, you want more of the i. so you want to make things simple and streamlined, but you also have to protect the consumer, protect the planet, and these things can be competing. right now there's one main problem. this framework is bought entry. it hasn't been tables are passed as a built environment. and that is going to be a long process. this is some way donio, profess of law and alliance university in manuel, who has looked into where india's ad with the right to repair. but it's possible to the bottom and also one buffet, right? yes, visible is possible because remember that we are talking about also the interest
12:40 pm
of and um lets say produce a groups that are quite powerful in not india. that was the case. it was decided to either meet to 2010, but that's the case. in this case, a lawyer named shaun should cut the 14 car manufacturers to quote, which only allowed for repairs and exclusive repair shops. he argue that these manufactures monopolize the spare parts market and will be using this dominance sometimes mocking up the price of spare pods. 5000 percent. the manufacturer was pulled back and the arguments was that what would be no. so let's say we think give such an tunes because you mostly for allow me more people to repair those costs, or those consumer goods we go to, it's going to infringe on direct to appropriate you, right. in that case, the court decided against them mandating that they allow consumers to go wherever they choose, based on what they can access and afford the problem. that if you have, it has more kids with intellectual property. i noticed,
12:41 pm
but do you mean discounts investments into that industry, for example, the funds that produce those electronic goods? maybe this, this may have reduced incentives to enter the market, the me of the legal market because it will say, well, but then when we are using data, not just for universe because all the different budgets rex is not protected because of the right to the fact that has already been pushed back even against the simple u. s. b c charging rule. i believe india has asked for an exemption or a delay seeing it, but otherwise struggled to meet production targets. but there are economic arguments for repairs. at the moment, most of the material that goes into making electronics remains on accounting for these include important resources like lithium, which we will need a lot more off in the future. so these are of huge national value. many countries i'm pushing ahead on this in early 2024. the european parliament
12:42 pm
took the leap forward and voted strongly in favor of strengthening the right to repair. in all 27 countries of the summer, even hanging on her bed vouchers paid for by national group of funds from to set up . what might become a norm across many products, a repair ability index, much like the one that shows you the energy efficiency of say, a refrigerator to give the consumer more agency. the u. s. has not fall behind them . such decisions would have impacts some countries like india and beyond the some of the products, standard global supply chains. so they manufactured for was so the word has to be done. the same page is a difficult task to, to. but then we also engage with you and they are doing from a specific date, they're making expenditures. so reset, okay. uh you plus 6 months is estimated to be a $20000000000.00 domestic market for repair and a $5000000.00 domestic market for refurbishment in india. so start to upset,
12:43 pm
jumping in by setting up repair and refurbishment units cdp. i am buying low and gathered with a noise examples board with huge foreign investments, the vin, vin proposition for the consumer, for the guy who's looking as and gets an employment and the company it expands to defend the 12th. because we want to get some benefit because it's cheaper and accessible. and the guy that's being able to make a living. but this all still exists in pockets, in very early stages. the big challenges, the hundreds of thousands of people whose livelihood depends on for fact, formalizing such a mass of informal economy developing skills, registering, and ensuring the paid tax is not going to be an easy task. even if the government says the intention is that it's also going to be a challenge to keep account of all these resources. but that is the whole, the thing i've decided not to change the display of my phone because it's about
12:44 pm
a part of the costs of buying the new phone itself, which is just too expensive, especially considering. i don't have a guarantee that the new display will last for long enough time to make the investment was that? so i think i'm just going to wait from my phone to the dice and buy a new one. but if and when that i to the bed does come into play, my decision might be quite different. developing countries like india have a unique opportunity to still tap into that culture of renewals and repair and retain them for almost sustainable and equitable future. there are more where he goes on our roads than ever before. and this means of the tie a manufacturing industry is going to shopping. and that means that more and more dials are ending up in our ads nor to cycle, but also all the time to use that exporting dad to solve this ios watkins. i'm dealing with them is a major challenge because not only are they more on bio, these are the ones, but they're also very, very hot. so is there any knowledge that can help us with this problem or of
12:45 pm
knowing all staffing, all of it that's find out is fine. some money has no shortage of lines right now. his company, but he's not far from home by specializes in re sites issues, tires. he started out in the business for decades ago regarding the fact that so the funds for companies that the 1st choice. the 2nd one is the, uh, bad because we don't own us, but instead of wireless, so be going saw size from them. the amount of these values, the says buy is my theme is almost doubled over the past 5 years. his main customers are replay, most companies just like the booming market diode recycling is a growing business in india of last year alone, it gave new life to some one and a half 1000000. dias, industrial exports say,
12:46 pm
but it could be more, the majority still end up in refuse dumps in order to have safe disposing. strategies come up from the government or from the industry side. this important that we don't dump it to landfills because that could cause problems such as the infestation of the tests on to be tires or even if you're into the rate. the international bias can actually be very difficult to be in by, by the most tires can lead the environment that is to put it in the landfill. that's also damage speak, assisting. the sound of nevada. 75 kilometers outside moved by is home to one of the leading styles recyclers. the company uses the lease. what do you do to produce a material? use us as far as reinforcement enroll construction for the past 10 years. it has upside goods, over 6000000, use tires joby, and with a lot that how many i had the article it, although we just, i,
12:47 pm
as have kept it the don't to do. and then process to the machines, your 1st, the 1st one is called a dias, heard a password to say that the tires are suspended 1st in 50 millimeter pieces before being sent through. and now they're measuring, call the rest of the reach for the reduces them to a size of 25 millimeters. these are also called tire. see 5 in size and 25. let me get a website linked to the next step involves chopping up those chips into even smaller pieces and then fucking them up for delivery. the fine granulated is little mixed with drugs to stones and put them in to create as all materials cause crum, it makes road surfaces more robust and you remove the government policies. and in fact, the lord engineering policy says the surface rolled should have
12:48 pm
a better product. richard handle the good uh, you know, richard sort of live in fact, so, you know, i'd be higher temperature advocates. i live in the water also, which can carry the highest difficulty. so i think the number of the between the between well what them, when it's in the head and weaknesses. the material is being used in the construction of a 67 kilometer stretch of the denny chapel highway. the contractor on the project says the modified benjamin boost the performance of as far as concrete. he's got ben if you're to be okay, and that will improve the right quality of their lives when compared to regular as far as for the to to be smoother. and the more traffic that road gets off, the more a to help reduce frictional scars or jump fix on it or direct. i'm about to explode. see, that's the recycling scrap tires for neutral,
12:49 pm
isn't environment please send me alternative to all those 2nd life options, such as binding them to produce industrial or the production of crum rubber modified benjamin, however, is extremely energy intensive due to the high temperatures required steady compared to conventional us, but it did reach considerably newest c o 2 emissions and yet, despite the positive result, construction companies in india remained reluctant to use. the benjamin, as i believe there is like a big dictation i'm gonna be in the street to use or to shred the rubber into recyclable product number one, which also means that you have not get up to use the board in good. right? sense number 2 is there is there still demand?
12:50 pm
it can be kind of guidelines for the specifications that you should start using the recycling products. the government has introduced rooms under which style manufacturers and importers must recycle the products. companies have been too slow to respond. and are demanding financial support to implement the regulations. scientists mean by going through a range of opportunities for using the psycho styles. we've also, uh, used to the inter betty bitches, the inbox. so if you want to do better dikes or ports that could be used if you want to use it for some other purpose, i think that is, i'm thinking number of uses, of rubber in, in, in similar to structure as well via the tires of 1st use it takes 15000 scrap tires to produce crum benjamin for one can normally do of root
12:51 pm
with the network that spends 6700000 kilometers is old, who is immense potential of cycles. we stiers plastic is not good for not in line. and we all noise, so an environmental list and when did you already decided to clean up all the beaches and with them or forcing the news? but he did not stop there. he decided to turn it into something more useful and beautiful, and each of those hydrogen to say to a drop order to does not end up on the shore. but instead it transforms into something like this. the i got seen even useful need talkie from dress. what does jetty beach in seminar is a horse in plastic waste? substitute a device used to hand pick the rubbish and dispos adults in garbage bins onto. he'd
12:52 pm
realize that that didn't make it disappear. today he was plastic. josh, as a result of rome. what do you do that he don't intellect octave items inspired by the us. he lived and worked in australia. when moved austin is recycled? not to know what is left the bonded to. they live on the 3rd party cargo. i spent my childhood here in for the to everything and i went to the quote here for 10 years on the time you and i loved the beach and i am phones of the see almost every day, almost every day i would come and play by the sea shore? well i know of the many, so i have lots of memories from that time. i and i go to amazing beauty to be a lot to me. so i returned and i think i'm not going to be. but after i came back, i noticed lots of things with into the same buying them out there with piles of garbage on the sea shore. i sense the urge to try to change something foot for knit the plastics problem. especially multi layer plastics, like potato tea bags,
12:53 pm
for example, i can be recycled. it's a huge board and one out environment, but nobody at nothing either. busy video, but he's no focusing on his skills to people in and around for bucetti in the book . but it's in that article mode, the plastic garbage under control and not affected him d p. s. there is no proper solution. instead of connecting and cleaning the garbage to create cost products, it would be easier if everyone separated the trash at so summer. and that's being could do the software from the 2nd just using what tedious used to package metal, which is pretty recently on the line about a lot of i is item whichever the optics can be sold, the environmental activist advices them. and about how to make money with their trucks outside these items, like this bag, for example, was sold as a 0 waste festival input to chevy. it's a win win situation by the time from now you're putting down the problem livelihood
12:54 pm
. so based on the slick on it, but these, these low describe it as being washed ashore, the plastic and other trash. they had no idea of what to do about it. but now the use of to me baskets, 10 bags and other cloth to create hello mississippi. g comes to collect the for the visas, 200 individual piece or small basket. that's more then to your it was about 300 to peaceful, big baskets on 80400 bucks and 900 for the children's bags. and the important thing is now of a village is very p. there is a cost plus 5 another for the le let you put in a lot of good the lives let in the changes allow, man, i saw those village them and making a living. doing this, i got inspired to whole n t r o. the are always very happy about him, get up and put them both on most of your loved ones to spare. a sense of responsibility from my side. i didn't know i didn't know step. this is
12:55 pm
a small step from my side. if we are old, so minded to make some effort, and then we can protect our environment to be chosen and ready to meet to alaska. perfect. but the biggest trip to pieces is the belief that someone else will see that i am totally on board with this idea of designing maximum value. i'll just see whether it's just too recycling or reusing or something else. what do you, what are there any such habits that you incorporate to me on the life? do let me know. you can email us or reach out to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week until then take it good by the
