violence rule over the past 20 odd years since the us invaded iraq. that's been almost continual of conflict among different political and religious groups in the country. poverty and unemployment a wide spread, morales lo, autism. so determined to change that big buckets of pain to the early indications that those change underway have impact. that's no trouble. full to be strapped pools are to become history. thanks to lisa lisa and his office collective with the mysterious name butterfly effect. start on the mission to bring lice to box dots, neglect to districts with colorful murals. nothing's or not, i don't. what motivates me is getting praise for our work. and thank god, so far. we've barely had a negative reaction. it's clearly something new for both older and younger people here, but they all seem to like what we're doing. applauding dr. watson. so
1:32 pm
kind of bits of color really makes a well to back to place. oh, it has an impact on people. ali says he and his colleagues a certain that when people ask them to paint for sobs, it's always about more than just what's on the surface. the every hole, every crack in these wall and stands for a tragic memory. but turning the bullet holes into flowers sends out a message that you can move forward and leave the bad days behind them. and this city has seen too many bought days. 5 years ago in 2019 ali was just a demonstration and creative best me
1:33 pm
a role. one of his 1st to my t was an appeal to the rest of the world. i created the mural in order to as a nation is to do something for us more authentic woman. so at that time there were un observers in the city, but at 1st they didn't really do much. my painting criticize that, and it got a lot of attention and something changed. so the artwork was effective. we'll put them in the in the meantime, many mo, murals like this one have sprung up all those of us dots, ollie's color full. well, the no question about the, the drop city has become more vibrant off can change people's lives enough totally for those who created often also in spite of the people who live around it,
1:34 pm
the collective has become popular. especially women who are often invisible in the rocks. conservative society have an opportunity to put the idea is out that anyone and everyone can join it. so how don't wind your money? well, i'm a housewife and i don't have a degree, but i love to paint it had a set of on as some like this, but it was the i got in touch with the group. and ali said, just come along. i want to beautify my home and bring more color into our streets. that's what we will encourage us to keep going. it will help us feel a life that helps the need to now be street in the city center, the boulevard of august, and create tips. it was shut down for yes. when terrorist attacks cut back down in time or you know, the streets is 20 thing again. even his daily life in iraq remains difficult.
1:35 pm
inflation and the economic crisis of also affected ali. but the alters to finance has his collective 3 commissions and small donations refuses to be discouraged. there he gets during lessons and then if i call, he wants to inspire people. he believes a pencil. oh, frustrated, come, help, change the world. just like the flip to the butterflies wings. yeah, it's a hard rock. you almost the butterfly effect is a scientific term. my theory. every word, every deed, no more, no matter how small and simple has an effect. until the end of time, i must have been such a good deed. something can grow effect last in the zoo and that's why we chose this name and put it back in the alpha districts. alejandra is teams finish them euro within a few hours. the residents are impressed. that is now one painting richer,
1:36 pm
but the mission to make the city more colorful will continue best. so a lot today, the turing temperatures droughts move, discuss the t. brazil has been halted by climate change, mostly shortages are an issue even in the amazon, and that's how they knock on effects elsewhere. it may not look like it, but this is the world's largest tropical whitland. usually green and lush at this time of year. large parts of the content, not in brazil had been reduced to ashes after months of drought. this dried vegetation has turned into the perfect fuel for wild fires. it's normal for the pantano to have rainy periods where the whitland floods and dry periods where blaze
1:37 pm
of spread. but this year's wildfire started earlier and with much more fury firefighters. jose francisco morales says it's one of the worst dr. periods in his career. and panel is upon to know urgently needs rain to see him. otherwise, we're going to see one of the worst drugs ever, and we'll have to fight a lot more wildfire soon. first, i hundreds of firefighters are working hard to contain this situation. some even came from other parts of brazil and neighboring bolivia. they don't want to repeat of 2020 back down about a 3rd of the content of vegetation burned down. 17000000 vertebrate animals were killed and many more injured. but the 1st half of 2024 is off to a bad start. there were many more blaze has been in the same period last year. to prevent the flames from spreading, the firefighters cut a swath through the undergrowth. but much of the ground is pete, meaning fires can continue for days under their feet unnoticed. and at the same
1:38 pm
time, they have to fight strong winds towards you today, the wind already turned around a $101.00 degrees, so we're fighting hard. so the winds will change again and every time it changes, we need a different strategy to stop the engine because these fires are largely started by people burning trash clearing undergrowth and even smoking cigarettes. usually they would be naturally contained by the flooded areas this time of year. but there are several factors that have been making the woodland flammable and seasonally early. one is a natural phenomena in el nino, the water and the pacific is unusually warm as a result with dramatic consequences. in many regions in the punt knowledge made conditions hotter and dryer. then there are the effects of human made climate change, which are also making the content more vulnerable to drought and increasing ramping deforestation in brazil is having an even more dramatic effect. you put that work
1:39 pm
up a single punch analysis suffering from a lack of water. it's because there is less rain coming from the amazon due to deforestation. there was one and there was less water in the rivers because of deforestation, and a so rod, our regions were called at the goods month. i mean to say how the water for the pantano actually comes from the amazon rain forest, some of the water that evaporates there normally drift south and cloud form over the set out of bush savannah to the pontoon. not where then rains. but as large areas of the amazon get the forest it, there are fewer trees to recycle water into the air. the landscape is drawing out was vague to see the score. the winds continue blowing it is, but they take a smaller quantity of humidity with them. and that reduces the volume of rain generated in other regions that puts the punch and all at a disadvantage on these, the little guys will open that up. in addition to the amazon rain forest, the trees of the ascent otto are also vital for the survival of the content on
1:40 pm
their roots. store the rain and slowly release it into the rivers that flow into the pond on, on. if the trees disappear there too, it will have an impact on rivers such as the view of public was an important tributary. at the moment it's about 2 meters too low, but just high enough to protect 0 that those santos, as land from the fire. i built a lot, look how it burned on the other side. the fire reached the shore of the river, didn't come close because it made me nervous, but i heard the crackling such, but that was this that i even though she is safe now, she's having a hard time staying optimistic. because over the years she's had to watch her land become dryer and dryer as ever bigger fires consume this unique landscape. oh, how could i assist you? not a long time ago. my grandfather told me, i won't live to see you, but you will. the world will end in fire and that's what i'm seeing now, or i'm 54 years old,
1:41 pm
clearly swap that's now everything is burning. the roughly 10 percent of a global carbon emissions stand from the text on industry. it's also incredibly resource intensive. guzzling up some 90000000000 cubic meters of water. and really, that's 4 percent of global fresh water usage unload the water, goes into producing all kinds of ways these and, but he does go through heavy, heavy chemical processes to make them the way they are today. whether it's finishing, whether it's dying, priyanka, qana collaborates with brands and produces to foster sustainable innovation and fashion, which is why it is mostly not even the nation, but does andre di biodegradable. and it takes sometimes over to 100 years for these materials to buy it as a degrade in the industrial. and that's
1:42 pm
a big problem because we produce a lot of textile waste. in the us, tex always has grown 80 percent since the year 2000. rachel keeps even stuck in a service, is great, which supports industry and government and reaching sustainability goals is our fastest growing waste stream. we send over $30000000000.00 pounds of tech styles to landfill every year in the us alone. most of our old clothes and in landfill, what doesn't, is frequently bend on sold stock and donated old closing a frequently shipped to the global south for resale, such as here in a crowd counter with 40 percent of what arrives is actually considered trash. the us and so the 600000000 key that is of use closing abroad every year, largely to the rest of the americans. while you are a big sports, i have a one and a half 1000000000 kilos. much it to us again. often it is dumped. bend, old,
1:43 pm
pollutes oceans and waterways. textile waste isn't just old. well warm toes. it also includes excess stock and the scraps generated during production. less than one percent of this material. that's the spot going today. which means all of this is going somewhere. when we collect close there, primarily going to be sorted for reuse, that's the highest value. so some of those clothes may be down cycled and so insulation, some may be sold as wiper racks, and then a small portion can be mechanically recycled. but mechanical recycling has its limitations. in 2020 full mechanical recycling is the best option we have close of chops up and spun into 5. it's, it's way back to the nun fills, but also involves a drop in quantity. and it's read that such materials can be recycled again, but could soon change. there are a bunch of exciting new recycling companies posting new technology and hoping to
1:44 pm
tailor up in the future for tech style waste. firstly, those chemical recycling textiles are broken down to the molecular level and then be built into various materials. while some companies only recycle caution australia is blocked, techs can recycle blended material, chemically separating synthetic polyester from natural costs. and 5 is polyester is converted into pellets, which can be used for, textiles, orders, materials, and construction. well, cotton fellows is turned into clay as uses and textiles, agriculture and even packaging. the flexibility is intentional. i would never want to be beholden to my outtakes just to one brand, because i know how badly those those brands can behave. patriot and jones co founded blog, tx in 2018. we prefer low techs to have it takes that can be useful to many robs
1:45 pm
and just be useful to want. i think that's been a real difference for us in the industry. everybody's is preoccupied with making more textiles. love text recently announced it will expand capacity to $10000.00 tons a year. refresh, global invalid also emphasizes flexibility to you back to you. yeah, breakdown and sanitize textile waste, creating 3 role materials. nano settlers as a know on sanitized tex, phone, pope 3 refresh cables. pub is these materials i used to make anything ranging from furniture, to bike frames, to f, an old based cosmetics refresh. global is a relatively new company plans to develop a network at smaller facilities that can be developed quickly and flexibly with partners. that's quite different to sweden's renew, so one of the world's biggest chemical textile recyclers. it was among the fist to build an industrial scale tech style recycling facility. cotton textiles
1:46 pm
a shredded into a slurry, separated from contaminants and dried into sheets of what they call secular, circular settlers, which can replace the 2 materials like cotton oil would in the production of new high quality textiles. going down to the molecular level helps maintain quality. i'm a new cell says ip sec you. those can be recycled. 7 times. there are limits, the new cell can know you recycle waste. this 95 percent of costs are no pure, meaning a lot of what goes to a landfill isn't eligible for new spells recycling plant opened in 2022 with capacity to recycle 60000 tons annually written to expands to 820000. but in february 2020 full came the shock and the company filed for bankruptcy just days before and renew sell told the w. they were recycling fall below capacity. and
1:47 pm
fashion brands were hesitant to commit to recycle materials. we could be producing a lot more tricia carries the chief commercial officer knew so as many of the brands have goals, search for circularity or reduction traceability waterfalls. uh, you know, variety, so its, we are a solution to their goals its how quickly do they want to be able to achieve those . renew, sell partnered with levi's to recycle production waste and include stuck, you know, send the products h and then became a shareholder in 2017. but still the punk didn't make a profit and it's supposed to. yeah, it has been something that has shoak. most of us work in us has been a relative fixed task. theresa dominic reset to sustainability management, and then t. c. l universities, existing business models in which most of fashion brands are messed it. they don't
1:48 pm
really have 40 initiatives night when you sell the did really. while the degree a be able to make a while recycling costs reliance on both ongoing costs and an oil based and tactics, it's more expensive. it would take some 7000000000 year rates to scale up recycling to hit 20 percent of textile ways to do it. by 2013. there isn't enough push from the legislation side to force the industry to actually adopt these materials. so not the investigation required for thing, but if it's going to be more expensive material, if it's a transition with the house, supplies the thing in nature with all the brands they decided across the board. it really does is a function of information. so have them having access to everything, which is not easily done until legislation usually takes it all. the you have
1:49 pm
monday to stop by 2025 member countries begin collecting checks don't waste separately just like they do with paper, plastic dos, which should improve on the 20 to descend waste. this car would be separated during supposed legislation in the u. s. e, u is in some modeling, a dual requiring produces to pay for the processing of that text on waste. and we have to ensure that these laws don't just charge the producers for one portion of that puzzle. like just collection. it has to also facilitate the infrastructure for both reuse and recycling and the innovation around that right now, recycling isn't profitable. states acktis group, so set the tone by adopting tockets themselves. but us to be successful as a result of that, we have to have committed that takes and that's where governments and private enterprise has a role to apply in saying the government,
1:50 pm
the chicks is very large procures of products. meanwhile, swedish reflects every new cell has phone to buy. a private equity investor also has both top that companies remaining assets also invested in industries that helped to reduce carbon emissions. text though recycling is one of them. the company is now to be renamed suck, you know, it's like it's fiber. but despite the progress in textile recycling, there's still more to be done. recycling is the only one part of the problem of a current consumption backend of cannot continue if you want to move to what is the most sustainable of industry. there is a huge amount of, of production in the industry and to whoever is responsible for that. it's just a lot of the debated on that. bottom line is that a little production needs to, to reduce the 100000000000 governments. we produce each year means 14 for every
1:51 pm
person in the world. if we can't convince function victims to stop buying the body weight, including at least we can ensure that as much as possible of what they purchase is recycled. the changes underway include the blocks and previously unimagined opportunities are turning the labor market upside down when i'm no $200.00, for example. never thought she'd be working on a fly farm. stuff and covina set up his own business for years ago in urban agriculture. and even the phone is learning to set up carbon projects in the forest of the interior of the country. as part of a pioneering project in cookie. why? what did these 3 young people have in common? they're all working in the green economy as part of the country's ecological
1:52 pm
transition. when linda 1st started at the fly farm, her days were difficult. she hated being around the maggots and flies that are bred for animal feed. to dick i'm saying ever but i was so afraid i didn't want the flies to touch me. i said it was going to wear long sleeves. but the hardest part for linda was dealing with her family's prejudice about the unusual professions she had chosen to see, they said it was bound to affect my health. the maggots are a dirty thing that everything we do here is practically nothing but dirt to disclose. since we use waste, it was a bit difficult at 1st. they didn't really accepted. exactly. i said that instead of staying at home and being a burden says it's better for me to learn and discover something new. because this was in today, the young woman is proud to call herself an interim ologist and is even convinced
1:53 pm
her mother to join the company, different covina also dare to make a new green start. after studying geography, he couldn't find a job. so he began offering horticultural courses to individuals and schools at the, on all our advisory job, he set up his own business to cell phone. is there me personally? it was a way of not depending on the traditional employment system in court as well, which is if you leave school and you look for a job in the public sector, there was a way of showing that you can create your own job. it'd be financially independent volume at all to them. you know, so i've been, you know, little deaf on, and linda are on a green career path. but they are still in the minority with many green job opportunities going on, claimed the ivory and government is keen to entice more school leavers profitable by the green jobs are not what you might call sub jobs. maybe it's this aspect that
1:54 pm
we don't manage to make clear enough to those looking for work going on. and i bought a new film put on an up to 60 ship so that when my direct them towards green jobs to do many refuse on this because they think there are many jobs going and seems, but they're actually normal jobs. so this was on, this was on the block, so there's upfront this loan in 2020 to the ministry launch. it's integrated strategy for the promotion of green jobs and cookies. why? in an attempt to promote these sectors, even the full has come all the way from europe for this. the 26 year old wants to learn how to carry out a forest inventory and cookie, why. she's currently being assisted by an experienced agricultural scientist. and so i see the aim is to calculate the forest c o 2 uptake the mississippi. this is obviously still do shows things i've never done to forest inventory before. it's
1:55 pm
all new to me. i've never done this kind of studies bitching. so we need to have work together, i'm wondering the quinn is so i know all about carbonate and the carbon market. if i just would not at all about the field we're going to have. so we really need to work hand in hand to achieve our goal. and most of the stuff on also wants to raise awareness of the green economy, but it will be 80 kilometers from be john. he wants his expertise to benefit people in smaller towns as well. it won't let me go into a new file in minutes of the people who live in the interior of the country. you do not have the same opportunities as the people, and i'll be john, couple more samples. that's why i think it's important to create a new ecosystem in my area to gives them access to employment that's beneficial to their environment. like you saw it on your, on the green economy include the wire, is giving young people the chance to work towards
1:56 pm
a better future. the, the,

1:58 pm
versus modernization? we're asking applicant cultures at risk of being erased in the quest for globalization africa was that tough to, to get it started. so this is all i have told us, nothing else has been sold to us. okay. okay. well, can you, do you speak to contributing to this piece of interest in the 77 percent in 90 minutes on the w, the manuals engine? you belong to the 77 percent to come to i don't good, i'm 65. follow us. while those top 5, and here's 3 reasons why 1115, we're here to help you make up your mind. we are here on please find your mind. so, all of the topics, i'm just,
