they are peers and rivals, which is one daring goals to help smart nature. the more likes watching it on youtube. dw documentary for a certain zone for making a slush. but from beatrice to towns and cities. popular destinations are being increasingly inundated. presidents are fed up and taking to the streets to protest the solutions over tourism on the italian island of virginia. the government and the tourism industry happened busy looking for new ideas also, and the citizen fast tracking the baltic nations integration into the u. ukrainian parcel deliveries service making new in roads and europe,

stream of hydrogen future protest much and video cast against the growing numbers of tourists and rapidly rising rents. plus the huge environmental damage caused by clue ships and scrolling. taurus type towns, as in both sedona and venice, people here feel marginalized and say they have 0 benefit from the massive revenues and by the big hotel chains. there's also the fear of the successive tourism will destroy what makes that community's unique. danielle, proud, we are kind enough everything revolves around tourism likelihood savannah danger, we can't find a place to live in the budget for the east in the mediterranean. so denny, it shows that there is another way to do things. the time in islands is home to

1600000 people, while the number of tourists in 2023 amounted to 7 and a half 1000000. doing some figure out what's a manageable one, thanks to the local government, working together with the restaurant operators, hotels and b, and b's to make tourism more sustainable and at least more bearable for the island . it began over 30 years ago when the 1st concepts imaged for saving more to avoiding waste and relying on local food and other products. i was surprised, often called everything we said by the comes from our own garden like vegetables. and i'm also always really locally right here with me. i live at home, so i'm staying with the meat to fish. we bind local when ever we can, with a 90 percent, the welding with animal transportation. i'm guessing you guys, lushly landscaped. forte village result has 1400 beds across its 8 hotels. and dozens of luxury bungalow cause the band from the complex, the vehicles here, icicles and electric studies that powered by solar panels from the buildings routes

because so dania is no show to son. left over food from the restaurants has come posted onto used for the gardens. the vacation result was bill cyprus, 30 years ago by lorenzo general. see, even back then he was thinking about how to minimize the impact of such a launch complex on the local environment. take want to consumption, for example, which adds up to some 1000000 legions. daily drinking morsa is scarce in southern yet to his, especially off to the heat wave eyes of the previous few weeks. the regional government declared a water emergency to some talents of the islands. lorenzo gen, let's see, had a reservoir built specifically for the hotel many years ago. to be as of why been contain up to 350000. so normally during the winter we accumulate enough

water to to fully provide them. we don't need to just to be with the current, the water. we just use our he said why? so we have self sufficient. it's enough to irrigate the trees and gardens to drinking motives, since tendency is far too valuable. the results for that purpose, whether it comes from the main. so the reservoir, which is why the hotel has its own sewage treatment plant. it may not last appetizing, but it's certainly appreciated by the environment. we get to the use the water and really cycle and uh, we use it for uh, irrigation forgot to bidding, so that it said it to, but ation of 700 cubic meter. every day. all the water. well it's of vital importance. i think that you know, the future we cannot to do without that because uh that is uh,

obviously the temperature uh increase the products and that any they sell less and less. so i think that this important not to waste a drop of water on the islands. capital is an hours drive away the charming old town and its range of restaurants, make caligari, a tourist magnets, especially in the summer. and it's an ideal base for trips to the sea. 10 years ago this i didn't, you know, thirty's began limiting access to beaches and other popular destinations in order to protect the islands nature and image. the idea is for visitors to keep coming back and not be patrol by mass tourism the or it was difficult at the very beginning. is that the still difficult nowadays? but the, there's a different approach of from many of our open a door. so enterprises to embrace such philosophy.

sustainability again is a saving something for the next v z evidence that the concept is lacking. well can be found in many places. hardly any holidaymakers. now we look across the jews that protect the beaches from erosion due to the sign and 6 dining the function and of course, disruptive, substantial finals, and the fleming goes nearby. likewise, remain on the staff at the hotel complex. we meet marilyn eletta, she shows guest how to make traditional sardine and tough to specialities by hands using old family recipes. so not that that allow me more the course to preserve the memory of all tradition. so any coupons that you 2 generations, i said these things are positive on a lot of reset the history jordan,

and i know sort of many more than i have the deposit amount of the amount that i'm on that no fall. i go but the we can also show total risk, so heritage it kick westoff. i popped up with all the notes that i storia, maryland. and that makes her living from that heritage. she's also in austin and decorates, posted in dishes using traditional techniques. she also embroider as codes and textiles in this identity and style together with friends, performances in hotels and festivals. she says also introduce visitors to southern and traditional people. the duties ma, eh, you might have yeah, this type of tourism also ideal for us on it. but, you know, sort of every, the audio packet because it takes you to a way of life that plays a role here. yeah. the thought eloquent because it enables authorities to integrate, i think they're gonna understand, will say, i mean these are the live in southern yeah. because the cars did everybody's sort

of then under range of finances related to sustainable tourism. so dania is already doing better than other popular tourist destinations around the globe. but the southern and ministry of tourism says this, the middle of what to date. there's no planet b, there's no such the b and the commitment is that of increasing the areas of, with the protecting natur, just dimension seeks are there and protecting my, the navy asset to national marine parks and that 3 regional box. so to mean that the territory of so the now is lovely and affected or at least upside and more and more to risk. so taking a positive view of assets to promote sustainable tourism. one reason alone, many of them to resent

rein travel is sustainable. of course, as well as the low stress way to travel and fund to for the expanding real way networks does an expensive enterprise. take. this project currently underway in northeastern europe and building a new line linking the baltic nations to poland and beyond the objective to boost productivities and reduce the regions reliance on russia. photos, you know, ski is on his way to meet the challenge of his life. he's working on the biggest infrastructure project and the history of a sonia lots the in this way and yeah, the rail baltic, the tracks have to cross several rivers, including the delcava and we got to be feel the bridge of our dog away. it's not happening every day. it's on sign in the lights up of doing it. the. so this is the biggest through our in the last 2. yeah. 870 kilometers of track. they come with

architectural, financial and political challenges. the line is set to run between telling and or so, the builders have to buy up land, cut down for some plan, the exact route. sometimes that is, that comes and you want me instead of transport says okay, i need to provide new connections there. and there, i need to provide what say some, some kind of decisions to be there was, uh, for example, or all the expansion projects. and oh, okay, i can understand from governments to the perspective, but there is a limit of how long you can do it for the project engineers. every change in policy means the tracks have to be planned and new, usually with costs. rising rail baltic goal was expected to cost 6000000000 euros. most of it comes from e u coffers. currently 24000000000 see more accurate and work will take much longer than expected. up until the 2013, we will implement the parts of the project which are really necessary in order to

get the train running from full and up until telling and some of the aspects of the project we will face out to be on the 2013 the planners have learned to make do with what they have, instead of 2 parallel tracks, just one track is enough. for now. critics agree, the government they say has to focus on what's absolutely necessary. so we have to stop doing the nice to have things like the for example building that we go central railway station as a huge station, we should actually focus on the number of priority to build a line that it's that it's connect 3, g a villages talon to bentley and then an ortho. as of yet baltic trains up and running on tracks left over from soviet times. they have a wider track which means that trains on the baltic states have to be switched on to the car. so the european track system to get into poland for lithuania,

connecting the old system to the r p. contract network is a heck union effort. battelle tested inst, because as the engineer in charge of the route between count us in between you and the board is who lot to you, he feels rushed ever since rush us, when you train makes fail baltic a more urgent project. basically that's changed the supply chain because from my deal is that usually was brought from uh, russian, the billing rush for, for example. now we cannot buy it. so for example, the steel, the rebuttal. so it's m, m to now we are with that as the are buying from, from the polish or from uh, another company and that's increasing the project. the price adding to the pressure is nato. they say that rate of baltic could play a major role in moving military goods and future a civilian project, but with a huge submitted terry implications because it will increase the ability is for

nato reinforcements to flow into the in this way. and yeah, but not only the 3 and a but also the rest of the phone to countries rust. one ukraine has opened the west for the baltic states independence or most color is more important than ever. and rail baltic is benefiting from this new sense of urgency. the challenges currently facing europe go beyond the sustainability from a partial delivery service of helping to reconnect millions of ukrainians reflect their homeland. some of the russian invasion nova post is the largest logistics operator in the country, and it's now out to shake off the european market. the logo on display is not very well known here, but that could all change soon. so far, the company is set up branches in 15 european countries where they go by the name of nova post nova posts potential. i'm european market is huge,

with close to 6000000 ukrainians. presently living in the u. like this woman who was sending a parcel to her mother, it was choose because uh, as soon as her birthday and i just wanted to send small gift with them. and level courses feels like it from when it comes to live the quite fast it was sending things. and this is like a small piece of ukraine. employ of a load of mir tells us the items that customers send to ukraine the most are food and clothes. but these days it's also power banks and charging stations being shipped due to blackouts after russian attacks. never post prides itself on being fast and customer friendly with the clear until until you're very customer oriented . for us,

the fact that people are satisfied with our services is probably the most important thing about a 1000 kilometers to the east purpose. know that post in central ukraine. this is their largest logistics hub. 20000 packages are processed here every day. 800 people work at the site on a daily basis. but most of the jobs do not require human workers anymore. or but dice and spies old. you're being logistic, that's why is there are people the i just loved came off as one of the co founders of know the post. the company started in 2001 with 2 friends, making deliveries from the trunk of this car. a pause, very difficult to deliver all goods at all around

ukraine, especially for business, especially for small and medium businesses. and they decided to create some ukranian did show, or you create in fedex, a today, nova post employees, more than 32000 people, they make around 1500000 deliveries every day. their strategy, according to the founder, is the key to their success. the form of all follow up post office is, is very close to starbucks. spend on this, please. yeah, uh, you could see, for example, uh, our post office these uh, these 2 sides on, on cross road. the meaning no, the post and ukraine's like starbucks in the u. s. is almost everywhere. customers don't have to go far. with countless took up a spot spread across the country,

including stores and lockers. never paused ames to be customer friendly and digital . their app has 7000000 users in the country of less than 40000000. after some 2 decades of continuous growth. it seemed like a success story might come to an end. in february of 2022. we had to close a lot of our post offices, especially on occupied territories, but maybe in one or 2 months, we understood that to the still life the had strong financial position in, in finance. so it was the point of freestar, let's say for company. but i remember our dashboard 3 days after invasion. visa, 2 percent of our revenue nova post continues to work in

all parts of you created can reach getting access to frontline towns where they provide a lifeline to many in the fall of 2022. they were among the 1st companies to move back into the dx by territories and has own and hockey's, but their proximity to the front lines also puts them at risk. and mark branches close to the combat zone have been attacked in the past, as well as large logistics arms like this one in hockey even june. but despite the challenges, the company says it has managed to decrease delivery times within ukraine from 26 to 24 hours since the beginning of the war. no, the post and many partners are no longer entirely focused on ukraine. they have for great plan for these expansions, our next step we'll be providing this the saturday is to be e commerce player. so like, uh, uh,

alibaba or amazon. but of course now and in the future, do ukrainians in, in the europe will be our key segment of customers. building a bridge to ukrainians abroad is the long term goal. entirely self sufficient? without any help of external partners, the which energy sources should power europe's future. sustainability is key. so hydrogen has been touted as one of the main alternatives to oil, gas and coal. and ambitious plan. but is it a realistic one? you're just getting pretty ambitious about cleaning up. it's economy by 2050 that comes in in plants to reach net 0 emissions. to achieve this, the continent dispatching big on hydrogen,

the miracle fuel slash password and the world of energy. let's unpack why that's a mistake. and who's tends to profit from it's on the surface? hydrogen sounds pretty great. you can make it from a new bill that expressed it to you with no greenhouse gas emissions. and then the originally use it to clean up all kinds of things from cars and trucks. and planes and ships to steal making and electricity production to heat thing. this is in print, suppose is a good story from european perspective. it also has the benefit that we can most likely produce of domestic in 2022, this became even more relevant. russia invaded ukraine and ended up cutting much efforts, natural gas supply to europe, brussels lifted to titles and titans. this was 10000000 tons of renewable hydrogen, produced annually in the european union by 2030 and another. 10000000 tons an annual import. but despite those targets,

not much is actually happening. what cust out to don't only a few pipelines, for example, in the pull it up for lots of them. and in terms of production capacity. in 2023, the way around 213 megawatts of operational electrolyzer, according to an industry study, to produce the envision 10000000 tons by 2030. we need about 600 times more. reality is lagging behind the use big plants and there's a reason for that. hydrogen is not the miracle solution is your lead us would like it to be as we've established green hydrogen is made from renewable electricity. this means that we need to also build a lot to moderate more in your books. we need to have lots more solar panels, wind farms being puts in place. the problem is this, though, hydrogen is not the most efficient way of using this energy. it's relatively expensive process compounds to the diet use of electricity. so where possible

directly using electricity is the way to go where it struggles we can pull back from hydrogen, but we should use it as possibly as possible. hydrogen as being defined as an addition pain of energy, something expensive. it's not for every day. it's for the special locations. this makes the use plants look pretty overblown. but it's not the only problem with them . another is that switching things over to a hydrogen is called the hardest and a something very small molecule on that car costs, charlie and cheese for pipeline materials. in fact, it's the smallest molecule of that means that can slip into tiny cracks in the pipeline. steel, make it more brittle, and the worst case crickets, you might have heard the term h to reading in relation to this, but also to other pieces of gas infrastructure like and then g terminals or power plants. it suggests they can be easily switched to run on hydrogen in the future.

but they're actually huge difference is how much hydrogen they can handle. they might need substantial refitting off the roll before they can carry pure hydrogen. like you, you have a diesel car. you wouldn't cold, that's electric ready, car just because you can use to shut up the car issue as have to end up. got gusting the entire car and that's the same principle. also that's close to no green hydrogen available. and that's not likely to change soon. across the repeating unit, only 0.2 percent of dedicated production is made from electrolysis. almost the entire rest is gray hydrogen made from fossil fuels, mainly natural gas, which creates lots of c o 2 emissions. meanwhile, europe keeps building gas infrastructure that's supposedly it's true ready. but since there's no green hydrogen available, it could end up getting used to natural gas or different types of hydrogen. it's a very high risk that it would be using hydrogen which is either great or not properly do. now,

blue hydrogen is also made from natural gas. and what's different is that produces claim. they have to come in on a massive scale before it reaches the atmosphere and then store it will cause it not properly because the technology behind this hasn't been truism to properly work . and scale at this point in time is very, very limited. it's technic uh capacity to tips up um uh carbon into it to produce through hydrogen that is acceptable from account protection perspective. the meaning if we rely on blue hydrogen, we extend the life of natural gas and create emissions in the process exactly what hydrogen was supposed to help avoid. it's the natural gas industry that's been loving for building more infrastructure and making glue hydrogen. clearly, the pictures important part frontier observatory and, and joe come through lobby registers. they found that out of the 100 because loving

groups in the you $25.00 path in one way or another, advocated for hydrogen and brussels. among them you find many fossil fuel matress, but also some trade groups and organizations. european decision makers commission that they're very, very happy to meet with them. in the general, excuse these. they have the expertise, does stakeholders, we need to talk to them. but of course they're there to serve their own interest. they see this as the perfect way of continuing their business. so way to solve that, leave us. well, hydrogen is part of the solution, but no silver bullet. if it's ro gets over hyped, it can lead to expensive, inefficient, and even climate damaging choices at the european commission does seem to be back tracking. and the most recent climate scenario that predicts 3000000 tons of green hydrogen will be produced in the u and 2013, which is a lot less than the 10000000 tons by side of the official target. this could be assigned that the hydrogen hype is starting to crumble and reality is taking over.

that's it for this edition of made, looking at tourism and innovative new concepts, benefiting local visitors and the environment. so much time for you as the the the
