and we are reducing waste as an alarming 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 the waste as a resource. and we need to figure out ways to extend the life of the things that we use on an eva. and that 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 price the city side of like a 50000000 gallons of water a day, then what was the flight and then easily only city that has been trying to figure it out with the 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 with
9:03 pm
60 percent of the largest centralized treatment plans in india, cities. i'm not properly function of the old, fully maintained. and often that is a shortage of printing the stuff yet the potential of fist 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 us taking the good to good sector again, which is important sort of has dental hygiene with the help of senses and data screens. a number of started 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 beginning and found him in the area lies. barkley, beyond the cities, bought a supply network. the student globally operational only once
9:04 pm
a month. the ground water level is simply 2 level. the only option for presidents 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 science. the water is so dirty that our 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 or does it feel invested? there's no reason why they cannot meet its water supply and provide water to everyone of it. that's good supply level. one way to do that is with improve vist water treatment. less than half of that is best water is recycling and only 18
9:05 pm
percent of the water treated actually gets used. device of the $35.00 centralized treatment plans on dilapidated and a lot of water goes to race. treating the waste water where it is produced on site could be a solution in some indian estates, 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 a plug and play model, which integrity of machines on side of the modern and digital function. we are not
9:06 pm
trying to infer fully automated, 100 percent distorted assets because the costs and the benefit has to also play for the customers. so bureau 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 center 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. no, we haven't started money, thing sense of. and then 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 quality 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 locus to buy extra water back and send them the hod, the unauthorized supplement with,
9:07 pm
as it does have to buy expensive water. that is just 45. that is, afford the available per person per day here, but the $1000000.00 inhabitants a vast amount of best waters, kendrick, g, a to be centralized water treatment could significantly improve the situation according to what he's in study only half of disagreements wastewater should be treated him daddy's centralized plugs, the other half of sudden normally hard, which is very dense. it's c, 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 so the created very smart, a good recharge the small lakes and water reservoir is located around, so i'm going to be hard. uh, so uh, recycling go based water wastewater treatment has the most road to play uh,
9:08 pm
considering an environment constrained uh, society. now that uh uh, range law is more extreme. groundwater the charge is not very high. according to a decent study, 80 percent of this water in india, it could be treated and reused. for example, for vacation in the ugly, comfortable sect, 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 draw many a country that 396 percent off is wasteful. so we imagine engineer in berlin who has found a way to recycle water within home. which means that the clean water that we're using in our wash basins to wash our hands, gotten busy psycho within the is done is allow me of the house and then use for the for other purposes. what's wrong with this every day scenario and having gemini,
9:09 pm
perfectly good will to useful bushing and flushing the toilet a needless waste. an engineer from berlin tells us take for us everything. waters are most important food, stuff and food doesn't belong in the toilet tool. seeing potential to optimize germany's water consumption f in node developed to waste water treatment facility for residential buildings. in this case, a student dormant tree. yeah, we have the side in the, in this case we only recycle the gray water from the showers and the water from the sinks for us all in here in this building for now. but that's enough. does in these mean up yet the rise just for the house? 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 literal fame cubes containing micro will conditions that develop with the young. welcome back to area. and finally, oh,
9:10 pm
to find the light is applied to kill off any remaining pathogens. this to me, it tree. and felon has had one of note as well to restart goes up and running since january 2023, which it does go up to there is a graduate research assistant to meet in to this, to room apartment c and off to what 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 had expected to doubles the requirement of water by, by 20 type d, and we're not going to have enough water. most of the students living in the dormitory onto even aware of the recycling set top, including maria from ukraine. despite the high tech facility, her rent is full 100 year raise a month, far lower than the typical rate,
9:11 pm
simple and don't. what trees does need surprise is seeing the rents are always high and balanced the pricing. so this was a really nice surprise to me, and that's what i would the surprise me resign can 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. a cubic i'm recycling gray will tell you for 25 years ago and has since moved up to incorporating heat recovery to that means using the thermal energy from baltimore to for sinks and showers to heat up the fresh water from the mains. these are these hiking on august bounded, i just recycling unit. it helps us to save 30 to 60 percent of the drinking water and wastewater hydrogen is easy, cold. it has 0 hygenic risk heat and no loss of convenience. and we were able to prove that it saves not only water but energy to find that, and that the entire system is more environmentally friendly than the usual setup is
9:12 pm
. it's the 1st ones we have, isaac, and most of the time the to, to my trees without by the municipal housing association, making them the 1st and the palin, brandon bag region to recycle grey. walter stockton involved investing more money $20.00 a year, a small past square meter without some investment that evidently was while with plans for further construction projects of this nature would be unlikely. these like, you know, the fit delivers exactly what it's supposed to. how much is the as an economic amortization of 12 years, while this 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 with 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 a bicycle light was not kind of the centralized water is cycling is definitely
9:13 pm
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 school 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 lights and now these paper straws are emerging as, as the news. much honestly, i'm not the biggest fan, nor would he likes the strong arming into a sole geek clump. possibly 2 bedrooms,
9:14 pm
so he has an even better solution. these as girls are made from dry coconut leaves, they are all done. it is the single use plastic straws and a 100, but some body to get up 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 has its own, i to the backs the natural back, so the nape itself makes it difficult in hydrophobic and that's why i started, i talked why not a big stores of it. sonjee 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 stopping to goes goats be put in so long as it is not body to do, but it's damages our environment. and that is why we were given the training to make these equal stores in doing good 20 k. as in india produces of lock shoot of the world canada,
9:15 pm
but in the process of dry coconut leaves the mostly good waste. so that's an adult value that i think again, that supply chain. you know that the lot which was considered as a beast, 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 line of production. that's when the team have adopted a so called hub and spoke marketing to produce destroys. spokes, a leave collection centers in the hubs or production centers at the spokes leaves collected from phones of bush and come to the required sites. then they send to the production unit with the machine room, giving the 1st layer of 8 to scroll, the necessary strength and the structure and often comes to a long building back to long duty. new strips that stuck up was it each other and out. so that'd be do that though, it'd be a good word to me school. so this company, this focuses the front of the straws center,
9:16 pm
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 popular than it is like people scrolls 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 whom brutal employment opportunities and make a huge difference starting them in the beginning. they used 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 this company opened, i joined earlier,
9:17 pm
i had to ask for anything and everything from my husband, but now it is not the case. 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. don't look a shit. the theme collin, people use 9000 as girls, but the girls do leave processing centers and 3 scrub production centers. 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 teach one to pro it, implement 1000 minutes 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 is decades of legacy least and like any other landfills. this mountain of garbage
9:18 pm
has everything from bio medical ways to fix 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 fluid 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 us as the roll champion in waste generation per capita. this file grows 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, you went study 38 percent ends up where it shouldn't some 2700000000
9:19 pm
people like 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. blown on, done paid on because whole and dump that we spent. and so this is leading to a practice on 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 read among other things that so called of the trash leaking into the environment, either to walk a ways your soil is or you and by open blending. and so all of these are emissions that are ending up in the environment that are harming sure. one hand it's harming the environment. and when i talk about your own health, essentially,
9:20 pm
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 meeting 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 trash 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. now with days and engineered land, so can also capture most of the mid day to meet it by making a kind of trash. livonia. that stops most of it from going to the atmosphere as the
9:21 pm
garbage is dumped, heavy tractors compact it and then cover it with an impermeable layer. dump compact cover repeat over and over again. then i kind of system of pumps. 6 out most of the gas is generated, including the mid thing the me think capture can be burned to a 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 vehicle, for example. this technique problems to reduce methane emissions by 60 to 90 percent. however, not all solutions and the skills need to be so high tech because this is recommendation to reduce methane emissions from landfill is much simpler and more straightforward. reduce the amount of organic waste and them because the methane emissions from landfills are produced when organic matter decomposes underneath
9:22 pm
a pile of garbage without oxygen. in countries like india, where around 50 percent of the garbage is what the waste avoids me is the landfills can be really effective and some places are being quite successful in implementing this policy. take my sore, 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 primarily any aerobic 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 p ration that is white fight off and you'll see people turning the compost regularly in my through about 50 percent of all waste is come posted so that the collector goes from door to door. residents don't properly separate the trash do be find. officials say only 5 percent of the trash
9:23 pm
goes to lens, so their goal is 0 waste. the compost produced is sold to local farmers and the horticulture department, closing dump sites and making lens feel better is a challenge and come to a long process. but it can be done. look at this graphic. it shows region steps to have a huge number of hate and 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 trash before sending it to the landfill. like in my search is something we can do when a global level of test reducing waste is the top priority to can also be reached worldwide. so let's face it right now. we're producing more and more trash worldwide. the power of smart waste management. instead, it can reduce costs in the long run, into more ways to collect in a controlled way, the less harm it does to things harmons. and the less money is needed to clean up
9:24 pm
this mess. the utility is great, but can we see use to create something beautiful? well, yes, it's can your, into any that are 7 and fox design is own up slices waste. and the culture was that i'm many office to use waste as that choices for 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 festival. a rich kaleidoscope of colors comprising lens of fabric, ranged in large scale patterns. and what small, the old thoughts from used materials, mostly discarded clothes. the majestic installations were come to the by,
9:25 pm
i'm gala tags from the city of page in the southern part of the country. in 1997, she tend to love with spinning nothing and weaving into a business concept. and 2 years later, she started recruiting stuff for her company, retake steel, many of her employees or people with physical or mental disabilities for them. it's a welcome opportunity to join the workforce. that text to go. i know we're kind of doing it with a pool that i rework materials and use them to make cop. it's under the item of form push better. that's important because we'd otherwise be drowning and trash would more than you could say. we have recycling the fabrics. you know, horse motion to europeans, throw away 11 kilos of close ahead every year with just one percent being recycled
9:26 pm
these days. the majority of people's clothes are not made of cotton or other natural materials. let's do this here. loading this hazardous waste integrity is most clothing items and made of synthetic materials. read names you cannot take that can still in the fabrics process by re tech steel. the native by local residents plus the 2nd hand store in the area hands of the items. the consol interested parties can place orders for the new items buyer and online shopping. they often come with information on the proportion of use fabrics and the amounts of manual labor involved. it's about quality and respect. every year, ray tech, steel processes, several 1000 key looms of used fabrics, materials that we typically end up in a landfill. a given the usually slice hit the
9:27 pm
so much can be reused. the side code upside cooling basically prevented from turning into waste. are there any such things you do to prevent waste immunization, or did you will see it in your homes or in your offices to let us know you can email us or reach out to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week on to then take care. good bye. lemme scott, the of knowledge thousands of years. what's kinda tell us about our future

how many platforms can you handle single attain usually without having the feeling that is just too much you might see me. how much can we do simultaneously? multitasking diesel, modern. because if we do too much, we get it all wrong. we mess things up, risking brain damage. so let's stop this self sabotage humans and multitasking. watching our new to v w documentary is the most important stuff can be used across different geographies. real tonnage sauces needs to be incredibly scarce. waste. what the heck us booming business is leo media and

lots just green washing. what's now on the to the structures, having coleman exactly that will made of clay. for thousands of years, people built the homes from natural materials, found floods, find construction with a sustainable and efficient and it's the right technique for use. these buildings can even withstand, of quakes. how you go about making them exactly as a nearly forgotten research. as an architect, i know, thinking about the role ancient building techniques took place in the modern world that and all the efforts to decipher the secrets of and.
