that we are producing waste at an alarming rate and humans gone because we will be left with very few resources in the future. hello and welcome. i'm sorry to cut the body and you're all watching equally. and we need to look at ways as a resource. and we need to figure out ways to extend the life of the things that we use on an a, b, b. and there are many possibilities and opportunities your starting from the water that we use to brush out to you to in the morning. and the short on your back let's start with what the delhi during the fees office, heat wave in june phase. don't want to trace the city. so there's lots of 50000000 gallons of water a day. then what was the flight and then easily only city that has been trying to figure out ways to 3 bits, waste water and expand that capacity. however, that is not enough. so let's take a look at some of the challenges and solutions. that's michael photo we fall in 60
4:03 am
percent of the largest centralized treatment plans in india, cities are not properly functional. that old fully maintained, and often that is a shortage of brain to start off. yet the potential of 1st water treatment is huge . even if they are able to do these cycling views, 3040 percent of what it means that much more water. they live in sort of a sticky. they're good to go. again, but the sort of has been hygiene with the help of sensors and data screens, a number of starter aiming to top, the prevention of face water treatment for women in the sung, behold, area accessing dean voters and daily struggling with over 1000000 inhabitants. it fishes launches on authorized calling me located only 20 kilometers from the indian, found him in the area lies. barkley beyond the cities, but to supply network, the student globally operational on the once a month,
4:04 am
the ground water level is simply too low. the only option for residents is to get water from tankers. that's expensive and also not enough. the situation is desperate. the water is going to be used for cooking. it has high level of sites. the water is so dirty that are water for just good. the water is the scarce to out deadly indian capital can only meet around 75 percent of its water needs. and most of the water is distributed and fed and some heavy as there is more than enough. you know there's, there's almost nothing up to 30 percent of the voters last 2 leaks. what is it spilled and invested? there's no reason why they cannot meet its water supply and provide water to everyone of it. that's good supply levels. one way to do that is with improve vist water treatment. less than half of that is best water is recycling. and only 18
4:05 am
percent of the water treated actually gets use the parts of the $35.00 centralized treatment plans on dilapidated. and a lot of water goes to raise treating the waste water, where it is produced on site could be a solution in some indian estate, decent or life systems, or mandatory in residential and commercial complexes. in google drive, a tech hub on the outskirts of that this upload phase, the 80 percent of the decent their lives systems non functional. one reason is bored. maintenance. the waste water treatment plant in this residential complex processes. 130000 litters of waste water. previously, it was monitored by stuff on site, but no monitoring is largely digital. that's done by w based company digital bonnie. the company uses what's called
4:06 am
a plug and play model, which integrity of machines on side of the modern and digital function. we are not trying to in 5, fully automated 100 percent boosters, assets because the costs and the benefit has to also play for the customers. silvio is proposing a hybrid son of a petition variable ending in technology various useful ro saying the company's technical expos explains the benefits of censor based monitoring the of the mega started, the system used to be a kind of the black box and you had to go and investigate if something went wrong and all we have is starting monday thing sense of and when the system is clean, we notified the operator. we also take the amount of water. if water is lost, we can find out there. let me know that the company claims that the system now purifies 20 percent more of water than before. that of water quantity is better, and energy consumption has dropped significantly. the treated water is suitable for a flushing toilet and watering gardens. there is no need for little cans to buy
4:07 am
extra water, us back and send them the hod, the unauthorized supplement with as it does have to buy expensive water. that is just 45. that is of water available per person per day here. but, but the 1000000 inhabitants a vast amount of best waters dedrick. yeah, to be centralized water treatment could significantly improve the situation according to what he's in study. only half of the supplements wastewater should be treated him daddy's centralized loan. the other half of sudden, normally hard, which is very dense. it's the but it's system. and so mark, this would be connected to the centralized points out sites and them behind in the for the stadium. and it can be an idea and flew the created risk. what a good recharge the small lakes and water reservoir is located around, so i'm going to be hot. so recycling go based water
4:08 am
wastewater treatment has the most role to play, considering and environment guns during the society. now that a range of all these more extreme groundwater, the charge is not very high. according to a decent study, 80 percent of this water in india could be treated and reused. for example, for vacation in the exit comfortable sector, this would leave much more clean water for drink. as we saw in this report, it is important to decentralize waste water treatment. and since we are talking about this, let's have to germany, a country that 396 percent office waste for. so we met an engineer in berlin who has found a way to recycle water within homes. which means the clean water that we're using in our wash basins to wash our hands. gotten busy psycho within the done me of the
4:09 am
house and then use for the for the offices. what's wrong with this everyday scenario? having gemini, perfectly good will to useful bushing and flushing the toilet a needless waste. an engineer from berlin tells us take for 13 waters, are most important food, stuff and food doesn't belong in the toilet to seeing potential to optimize. germany's will to consumption f in node developed a wasteful to treatment facility for residential buildings. in this case, a student dormant tree. yeah, we have these type in here. in this case, we only recycle the grey water from the showers and the water from the sinks for us . so in here in this building for now that's enough to dust in these up yet the rise just for the i was the 1st step is to collect the voltage separately from the showers and things and then clean it. and these tanks in a series of stages without the use of chemicals. instead, the job is done by liquid fame cubes containing micro will conditions that develop
4:10 am
with young welcome buckets area. and finally, ultraviolet light is applied to kill off any remaining pathogens. this dormitory in berlin has had one of note as well to resign. it goes up and running since january 2023 or check the scope to or is a graduate research assistant to move into this to room apartment c and off to what's i see what are as, as, as an essential resource for us to live. and i know that so many parts of not just the word, but even in germany, where i come from in india, we are expected to double the requirement of water by, by 2030. and we're not going to have enough water. most of the students living in the dormitory on to even aware of the recycling set top, including maria from ukraine. despite the high tech facility, her rent is full 100 year rise,
4:11 am
a month far lower than the typical rates and bell. and don't what trees it does meet, but as is seen, the rents are always high. and by letting you guys in. so this was a really nice surprise to me. and that's what i would the, there's a price range recycling. go to a pays off in the long time, especially with new buildings. and not least thanks to of the nodes are constantly improving his innovation. people come to the site, king gray will take over 25 years ago and has since moved up to incorporating heat recovery to that means using the thermal energy from baltimore to for sink. some show is to heat up the fresh water from the mains. these are these hiking on august bounded. i just recycling unit helps us to save 30 to 60 percent of the drinking water and wastewater hydrogen is easy, cool. it has 0 hygenic risk and no loss of convenience. and we were able to prove that it saves not only water, but the energy to find that and that the entire system is more environmentally
4:12 am
friendly. and the usual setup is it's the 1st one's be rehab, isaac, and most of the time the to, to mate trees worked out by the municipal housing association, making them the 1st and the berlin brandenburg region to recycle gray, volta stockton involved investing more money 20 year a small past square meter, but that's an investment that evidently was while with plans for further construction projects of this nature. the unlikely these like, you know, does it delivers exactly what it's supposed to i'm, which is the, as an economic amortization of 12 years bothers can saves drinking water c o 2 an energy by feeding it back into the system that used to, um it, so it's actually a good package all around and is an excellent option for residential buildings. and so you have one left. the system also works in countries suffering from water shortages and pull power supply. and these a very small energy input one and a half kilowatt hours per cubic meter of water. the same amount as
4:13 am
a bicycle light was not kind of the centralized water is cycling is definitely recommended in places with no properly working waste water system. when you're cool, so if the power supply is poor, then we need solar panels on the roof and, and the system could also work at night. and we just need a small battery of these. an ide score one and a half kilowatt hours per cubic meter is a lot, and relatively easy to handle. and tom, the engine air is proud of his recycled fault, his quality microbial tests of showing that it will make as much as not to of drinking water, making it suitable for irrigating parks and goblins, for example, and actually fall to good, the flushing toilets. how can we discuss waste and not bring up plastics, drugs even within plastic, single use plastic straws are a big menace. and we all the way. and now these paperless draws are imaging as a solution. much honestly, i'm not the biggest fan. nobody likes estrada ending into
4:14 am
a sole geek loan. possibly 2 bedrooms. so he has an even better solution. these, the scrolls are made from dry coconut leaves as they are all done. it is the single use plastic straws and a 100 percent buyer to get and chemical free. i picked up a few of those leaflets, took it to my apartment, and then i started steaming. and then i saw that it's, it has its own, i to those acts the natural backs of the nation. so it makes it difficult in hydrophobic. and that's why i started, i talked why not big stores out of it. songy with ease and his team are aiming to convert this a good country ways to will eliminate the use of plastic scrolls. plastic in the plastic causes a lot of salt them to goes goats be put into one as it is not in body to do, but it's damages of environment. and that is why we were given the training to make these equal stores in doing it 20 days in india produces of
4:15 am
lock should've developed coconuts, but in the process of dry coconut leaves the mostly good waste. so that's an adult value that i think of the entire supply chain. you know that the lot which was considered as a v, you know, adding value to it. it does increasing though the family's income at the same time, it's not on the tv and for a different lineup production. that's when the team have adopted a so called hub and spoke more to produce dis cross spoke a leave collection centers in the hubs or production centers at the spokes leaves collected from phones on bush and come to the required sites. then the send to the production unit with the machine room, giving the 1st layer of 8 to scroll, the necessary strengthened instructor and often comes to long going back to long duty and strips that stuck up. was it each other and out. so that'd be the, it'd be a good word to me school. so this complete this process. the finally the straws
4:16 am
send to the post processing unit to be sterilized and packaged a beach. a scroll is price between $2.02, rubies around to your sense of depending on the size, the district is going to stay in beverages for 3 to 4 hours and have a shelf life of 9 months. where he says that these are far better for the environment compared to pop lower than it is like different schools. above all, the theme is proud of the fact that it is women who are on the show. there are over a 100 female employees for home rulers employment opportunities and make a huge difference starting them in the beginning of the us to get 2000 a piece of 2500 piece. now, that'd be at expedius and right. and our fostering doing well, we take 4500, you're basically hoping to get more in the future. and i got mattered when i was 18 . i have never worked anywhere since then. i used to be just at home. as soon as
4:17 am
this company opened, i joined earlier, i had to ask for anything and everything from my husband, but now it does start the gays. i don't ask him for anything. i look after my expenses on my own from the money i have owned and i'm very happy about it. then what was it? the theme calling people to use 9000 as gross, but the gross to leave processing centers and 3 scrub production centers that we have in place on that. you know, all the 11 states school can bring series of india. so we see a huge, huge possibility to create employment. our goal is to reach one to go and implement the 1000 members in the next 2 years. with more and more countries restricting plastic use, the company has already been able to win many customers abroad with its sustainable innovation the since we are talking about ways today we partners for things to come here behind me
4:18 am
is decades of legacy least and like any other landfills this mountain of garbage has everything from bio medical ways to deck sideways and because it's all been sitting here for decades. also a lot of guess. so how can this humongous mountain be conquered? and all of this waste roll says, well, you're awesome on says foot scraps, plastic buckles pizza boxes. think about how many things you throw weight each day, depending on how in where you leave. this might different a lot. different indian thought is all 500 trends of garbage every day for the average american troops to point to keels. by the way, the u. s. as the role champion in waste generation per capita. this file growth along with cds and the rising standard of living on the planets right now. we're 8 feet and people producing 2100000000 tons of rubbish every year. according to this new wednes, 3038 percent ends up where it shouldn't some 2700000000 people like
4:19 am
access to basic waste management services. so no protection multiplan disposal due to ramona's, the technical director at the international solid waste association. she's one of the supervisors of this study. so for the lack of those options, what do people end up doing? they take the reast beast, dr. blowing one, dump 8 the one because whole and dump that we spent. and so this is leading to a process on dump site is with data, absolutely new environmental control when it drains the water filters through the waist and fronts leach, it potentially toxic cook, tell us many heavy chemicals and back to re among other things that so called of the trash leaking into the environment, either to your walk a ways your soil is or your air by open blending. and so all of these are emissions that are ending up in the environment that are arming. sure. one hand it's harming
4:20 am
the environment. and when i talk about your with health, essentially, if you have contaminated waste is going into a fluid systems under this mountain of thresh, where days, no oxygen, something else is happening. material breaking down organic waste and producing me think one of the worst greenhouse gases in the short term is over 80 times more potent attempting to plan it than carbon dioxide. landfill operators use several ways to tackle the problems of dumping thresh to protect the ground from toxic chemicals. they start with a large hole in the ground line with giants impermeable layers of synthetic materials. kind of like a huge into swimming pool with a big plastic sheets in it. at the bottom, there's a drainage system to remove the lead shape that's generated. sensors can also be placed at the bottom layer to detect any possible leaks after delete to district that it is turned into a usable water nowadays and engineered land. so can also capture most of the meeting to meet it by making
4:21 am
a kind of trash livonia. that stops most of it from going to the atmosphere. as the garbage is dumped, heavy tractors compact it and then cover it with an impermeable layer. dump compact cover. repeat over and over again. then it kind of system of pumps. 6 out most of the gas is generated, including the mid thing. the me think capture can be important for process called flaring that turns it from a super harmful greenhouse gas into a regular home for one c o 2. but this is a huge waste. the 2nd option, me think can generate heat electricity or renewable natural gas compar vehicles. for example. this technique promised to reduce methane emissions by 60 to 90 percent. however, not all solutions and distilled need to be so high tank that be sees recommendation to reduce methane emissions from landfill is much simpler and more straightforward . reduce the amount of organic waste in them because the methane emissions from
4:22 am
landfills are produced when organic matter decomposes underneath a pile of garbage without oxygen. in countries like india, where around 50 percent of the garbage is what waste avoid them using landfills can be really effective and some places are being quite successful in implementing this policy. take my sewer, for example, with a population of more than one median. it produces between 40500 tons of waste daily . the 3rd is designed a decentralized system in which trash gets collected, segregated, and composted inside their neighborhoods. here it is important to remember that composting is primary anaerobic process with oxygen, or micro organisms breakdown organic matter. it can relate small amounts of meeting if it's not properly done. if there isn't enough, be ration. that is white. quite often you'll see people turning the compost regularly in mice to about 50 percent of all waste is combusted for that the collector goes from door to door. residents, them properly separate their trash,
4:23 am
do be find. officials say only 5 percent of the trash goes to landfill, their goal is 0 waste. the compost produced is sold to local farmers and the horticulture department, closing dump sites and making landfill better is a challenge and come to a long process. but it can be done look at this graphic, it shows regions that's to have a huge number of open dump sites. in this case some experts suggest it's moving from dump sites to lentils would already be a step forward. on the top of that, separating at least organic transfer before sending it to the landfill. like in missouri, is something we can do when a global level of test reducing waste is the top priority to can also be reached worldwide. let's face it right now. we're producing more in more trash worldwide. the bottom of smart waste management is that it can reduce costs in the long run and to more ways to collect in a controlled way,
4:24 am
the less hum interested environments. and the less money is needed to clean up this mess. the utility is great. but can we see use to create something beautiful? well, yes, it's can you and any that us 7 and fox design is own up slices waste. and the culture was that i'm many office will use waste as that choice is almost so creating. we met an artist in hungry, who was never on auto wrong with you do this for har dot because we generally it's me, i need to $1000000.00 or 6 sideways you to all which also happens to be hard choice, offer all materials for creating something. every year it's an integral part from greece and zora a festival. a rich kaleidoscope of colors comprising lenses of fabric, arranged in large scale patterns, and what small the old thoughts from use materials,

these days, the majority of people's clothes are not made of cotton or other natural materials of the best of your lives in this hazardous waste. integrity is mostly the items are made of synthetic materials to a nature cannot take that can still in the fabrics processed by re take steel at the native by local residents plus a 2nd hand store in the area. hands are the items, the consol interested parties can place orders for the new items buyer and online shop. they often come with information on the proportion of use fabrics and the amount of manual labor involved. it's about quality and respect. every year re text deal process is several 1000 key looms of used fabrics, materials that we typically end up in a landfill, a given a new lease on life here, the
