[000:00:00;00] the respect, it's all about what can we have and texting nature. that's right, sandra, respecting nature, studying aids. i mean it's about being up to date with current ideas, technologies. i'm trying to fully eat co way of life, the environment magazine, the co africa next on p w. not just another day. so much is happening all at once. we take time to understand this is the day in depth look at these events analyzed by experts. and critical thing is this is with the weekdays on

w w. this is ebony also is available to them and it has made up in some sense to me in the a human activity is driving climate change while menial force don't know exactly what we personally can do to minimize our negative impact on the planets. in fact, we can do a lots such as reducing the individual carbone footprint, or we're using results as we can also learn from others. was such a good example. i will meet some of them on this week. so i have proof of loans in lagos,

nigeria. good to have you with us. here's what's coming up. turn in plastic. wait for the 2 children to convert a vacant offices to solve the global housing crisis. and how are you getting done? raise your manager has worked to 1000 kilometers to clean messages without press report takes us to know the gun. now with the period between and the july late august is the link the season is a time when put starts running low and many face hung up for the security is on the west. and by the kind of severe drugs that the region is koren lee grappling with, what farmers needs are a zillion prompts, and they've, they have high nutritional value to that's even better.

thankfully the us to feel cold. so for minutes left, as it is all duty way libya, lumberton has to feed her grandchildren and that's how many somebody is in june by the northern gunner in the same position. the mainland girl mays arise the next obviously still a few weeks away and supplies are running low. then there is the prolonged draught . many peanut plants of we did. some of the mays to we rice is not much worthy. of the largest pulse be told in the region the baptist medical center in the letter cool. many patients my noticed a cs. so my law is expecting a baby son and like half of the pregnant women here, she's suffering from anemia. blood has to fuel red blood cells because she doesn't have enough to eat. don't want the info and when a new day breaks, if i am lucky,

a 3 times at worst, only once you're pregnant women, we've anemia luck. important new trends. so they often give birth to my notice to children. 2 years old, this months health has watson over the past 5 months. he's lost more weight and he's always tired. he's just one of the 15 children being treated, he a full acute model. nutrition. is this marcus? not as me, and the me, the a bomb, simple phrase is 9.2. we sure that he's i can, this is really my model number and multiple guy and he's funny, a doing all the con to produce more fluid. wait either from us to helping the amazing survive the draught is funding is already harvesting. that's because the planted problem, millet, it's phone, all of the maze and these more resistant to draw it. now the number i go

some of that according funding these copies. good. it really has any household around this time of the those who refused to grow millet and all regretting that decision on quite a while. a lot i look at the bulk of my oldest depend on neat every year and it never fails to be honest. and i was told by them by the local and i mean the 7 point gentleman was down with that of the canadian government as a long promoted the code division of amazing rise. so the expense of meal it, this is because they use a heck to a significantly higher for mays. for example, the country only produces around $200000.00 tons of mill it under this. and more than 15 times as much mays as recommended by the government funded a dummy. yeah. hi. yeah, gross resumes, but he's water that he's use will suffer due to the draught. he's also tried me that but because he feels are in constant to use the sewing is to depleted for me that he will have practice this wise thing we assume that is also dealt with here.

so you've got wanted to me is some of them later when we do, but it's not all of our case studies for this, but if i do this, not more like it used to be. so let's, let's go out on the ice. the nice and some of the, the new varieties of piled meal it could solve the problem that being propagated. here in the test feels a disadvantage agreed. cultural research institute, northern gunner varieties that contrived despite depleted size, and that's even better adapted to draw it way again with the written by as well as will be that to be able to do with where miss will not stand levels come in is it does require very little quantities of the inputs entails or front laser. you does prim, elect feels within it, then this new variety is going to be stored at a causal of the institute. right now,

it's almost empty because the new meal it is being on the lives in the love of the samples. i've already been sent to some 5000 farmers across more than gone off for trials. the feedback has mostly been good. meanwhile, i'm one multiple guy and he's for me to have almost completed the task list, they're still using a traditional variety of positives. and yet the published did 600 kilo's in 2 weeks without the use of getting calls more than enough to bridge these short lean season where there is no means for me to come even. so the millet and in the meantime focus on mays which will need to be caused by the lives of don't dont go babylon dunbar putting out it. we finished harvesting the millet and of just planted some of these on the same fields, a bigger liquid dealer in 2 weeks time will apply for the lives of them. yeah. and

the plans that are already looking good out by the to locate that the the nearby gym by this may be the amount of straight food because no have enough meal. it to cook traditional deep fried balls made from meal. it was unlikely sugar. it is a popular, decent, affordable at around 5 bureaus. sense pulse, the reach of mute, friends like ion and mug museum. and that's multiple so yeah, you will, it is a healthy meal. sounds when it is a gun, you know, once praise chemicals will need that kind of so it's good for a healthy guy. you probably mail it to me still be the and the dog i'm on, gunners, crops. but it has the potential to really improve the countries for security and turned up to the challenges of changing climate next to move to south africa for this week's going,

your bids. it's pretty amazing how much time to move from recycle plastic bought 2, such as bricks, clothes and funny to all sorts of things. in cape town, we found the company that those 10 in the very to children's boys. it's a great example of a false like you like kind of me words. the little boy in my driver's seat is mckenzie makoto. he's 5 years old and quite somethin. as you can see, i'm a toy scooter. what you can see is what i used to be. i was once plastic bottles and no containers like the waste was destined for landfill. all the i can see south africa produces $92.00 and a half 1000000 tons of plastic waste each year. around one 7th of it is recycled to about the recycling fantastic plastics. in cape town,

the waste is shredded and formed into the elements on nato. on a warning, it's about to get complicated. we'll put it through a process of analyzing it through the small daniels. then it gets wash. it gets a dried, it gets you the top. it gets shipped into a concert. it's new to help us. it gets excluded. it gets pin size or depending on the system is put through view. that was the last time for a show right to play a $180.00 degree 10 is one of the country's top tricks is in the meantime, the pilots still have to be meltdown. then this cool mold shapes my individual pond. somebody thought to a used to import choice from china, but it was too expensive. side of the company started making their own speeches from recycled plastic and using solar power to,

to save money. what made me use the cycle material was cost or these need, but just purely based on cost. how do we make our product as cost effective as possible for the market to accept all product? the repurposed waste is off the price of new plastic. my kind of wheels do you need fresh plastic? they wouldn't mix bryant's otherwise. apparently i'm at least 90 percent recycled. and i'm proud to say i can be purchased an advocate launch a supermarket chain. i cost between $9.00 and $20.00 depending on the model. incidentally, my design is based on the scriptures that deliver groceries in many south african cities. what can the hasn't been bored since we've been playing together these past 3 years? and that's happy to be loved it so much. he's always. if i did not around, i think he to be experience or for he's 50 caught truly driving

a car for you the to a completely different topic. now, empty buildings these days, many office buildings around the world have high vacancy rates. this is partly due to the number of people working from home since the global covey fund demik. and i the same time there's a housing prices, insights is everywhere because of verizon rigs was, felicia could be to convert those on use offices into homes. if you live in a city, there's a pretty good chance are living through a housing crisis. rent in the major cities are skyrocketing, and this is happening all around the world. at the same time, housing has grown scarce. some buildings stand empty,

downtown signed for it looks like just about any other big city central business. plastic leaving high rises to hide and alarming facts. nearly 10 percent of the cities offices are facing. other major cities around the globe have vacancy rates that high or even higher. so why don't we just convert empty offices into housing for people worldwide? for many of us are back in the office, working from home is here to stay. for instance, 35 percent of us workers who can work from home and still do, and plenty only come into the office on occasion. but if they can, workspaces are entering new problem. long before the pandemic eating officers were already becoming less desirable, hasn't been for about the last 10 years and the trend of the cold flight to call it to you. stephen painter, in architect that one of the world's biggest firms, focuses on adaptive reuse. people when, when you're in

a lease is an older buildings are going to the new laws that will be built because they offer that kind of amenities, the kind of locations people, and all these empty officers aren't just to waste of space. they mean less rent for owners, lower tax revenue for cities and the decline of entire neighborhoods. we have beautiful buildings. we have a wonderful plaza as we have sort of all of the physical assets. we just have vacant buildings. and so you don't see that vibrancy used to, you know, kind of look down these key car doors, and you would see just streams of people, you know, coming down the street. and you don't see that as much anymore. literally along the leaves of planner in san francisco, another studio dressing high vacancies almost 95 percent of our tax revenue comes from business tax from downtown, about 80 percent of our g. d. p. came from from downtown companies in 2021. it is our economic engine and so it needs to thrive so the city can thrive. roughly one

3rd of offices are vacant in san francisco. the 3rd most expensive housing market in the us. at the same time, the ongoing construction of new housing is causing a whole different host of problems in order to meet climate targets, but also other sustainability targets. we will need to actually stick with what's already built printer, the hug that researches urban sustainability at stock homes, royal institute of technology. even if this new production of housing and buildings is done with very energy efficient and an optimized technologies, this won't be enough. we will also need to reduce the total amount of new production. and this is what brings us to frankfurt. i checked out an ongoing conversion project. an office tower built in the 90s will soon be reborn, us around $150.00 furnished apartments. then you mean all brush the developers

regional european head is excited about adaptive reuse? the data for the environmental factors obvious since the building show is already standing and i'm a show alone usually accounts for about 50 percent of emissions during construction . it's a, a fairly significant portion of the course a long time, but it doesn't only save on emissions. revamping and office building can be up to 30 percent cheaper and construction can be done in half the time. that depends on the project. this one wasn't much cheaper than a new build, but speed play the big part of the tide for i think the time factor is really critical. yeah, it allows us to start generating rental income through the property pretty quickly . a repurposing an old building, disturbing new function. it's called adaptive reuse, and can extend to structures like think of turning old factories into artist slots or warehouses into ubiquitous street food holes. retrofitting and existing structure is a lot more complicated than planning everything from scratch. as developers have

found out, apartments and officers aren't always a $1.00 to $1.00 fit. it depends on when in where they were built. modern open plan offices were built for living in. first you must divide up large areas while ensuring rooms get enough sunlight. and you can't just have one big bathroom for a whole floor. each room needs a ventilation seating and power to, to end up with shiny new apartments. many conversions essentially rebuild everything except the existing foundations. and besides these constraints, make many offices just too much work to convert. according to painters research, roughly 30 percent of offices are ideal candidates. if you look at the us market, where we're doing a longer slack is about 100000000 square feet of office space. and if you come by just the vacancy of about 70 percent of that you can create between 6 and 7000000 new homes. but just turning offices into apartments isn't going to be enough.

neighborhoods that are just office box can be a bit inhospitable calling with finance barrows by day, poor thing. it's a ghost towns outside of business hours to turn people live, not just work. there could change that this neighborhood of frankfort, mito god, which developed as a sprawling set of offices in the sixties and seventies. given the wild be creative nickname of the people stop for office city, but by the mid to thousands. nearly one in 3 of the offices were sitting in in 2006 . the city began converting the mt office powers into housing creating through mixed use development. now it's still other places to live shop and go to school instead of just places to work. for rezone area and turn the parking lots and the green spaces in kindergarten. it brought in developers to build apartments and shots. when they're done, they'll be 6000 apartments here. there's other stuff that may lead now that the

areas lively or the offices that actually become more attractive. so it's easier to rent them out. you know, this has to have meetings as best on the canadian city of calgary, started working with painter to revitalize its downtown in 2021 calorie had about 30 percent. but you can see in their office market and i was assigned one of the worst in the world and a very quickly actually for our program together. which gives you $75000.00 square foot to combine the building and move forward with the red tape out of the way to make these projects move more quickly. and the 1st 5 projects and now under construction, represents about $750.00 new homes. and they have 10 more approved painters as much of this housing will be affordable and built with families in mind, thanks to the financial incentives provided by the city doctor for use often has even more red tape. the new builds that will have to change it for going to use has potential to curve emissions. so if you take turns around as an example, there's a role in the downtown you cannot renting office space is protected as employment

months that was created in the seventy's and then just never got it because it, there was no need to change it on. now there's a desperate need to change and that's, that's kind of holding up. these products happening. such arbitrary regulations are quite common. and approval for conversions often takes as long as it would for a new build, even though the structure is already in place. since that are 1st office conversion, projects have gone well, then you mean ultra thinks it's verbal, focus more on adaptive for years. many developers have shown interest in these projects in cities like san francisco are supporting office conversions. be kind of support offered to me determine the type of was increased, get slipping, offices into housing is clearly no quick fix and it's not gonna solve the global housing crisis overnight. footprint per in calgary, do show it can make cities vastly more livable and it can drastically reduce the environmental impact of relying solely on new build. the

active as the next report is a re do model you come paula, uganda. but joseph, the young guy is best known for his company, but to improve is for its safety, especially for children in those ups. thoughts with changing all the tubes and the ideas and getting away from the idea. the driving is back to that, walk it up because city is getting more and more crowded by 2050. the number of city 3 less is 6, almost people to 1300000000 and the city traffic to us is growing along with that has last season trucks a big looked everywhere and go to those fumes. lagos, cairo. i'll try. and john spikes are among the most pretty to african cities. it's rich due to a, a police shooting ethic is twice as high as the global average. any cities on the

continent, a having trouble finding a solution. you can just copy to comp, i wouldn't mind. joseph b and guess he's tired of it. the traffic indeed city has cost maybe like last year alone. someone 1600. it is, teens died intrinsic accidents. in addition, many have died. well, gotten sick from the party today or we have very many vehicles on the road. most of them not in a good condition. they put thing, got fumes, which are not a good for even the people who are working with living in a city whereby we are kidding people. every day. we need to rethink improvement. design is city that is so full of there was here, so gonna position was that come from as the way he's not reading safely this. so this morning, joe woke up as he is known as social media, is joining authorities, income product to promote non motorized transport as a way of reducing emissions. decline as

a pilots in template added cost reasons. so we failed to twice that if we can promote the 90 more to $40.00 per us, but 60 and then we're setting credit and getting for what people didn't give them. how did the benefits so doesn't anymore. today is the kind of press petition have become good, more than half of companies will finish of lots on site because this is probably the searches for more motorized transport into the tool. but it was more than 29 years later, the pilot freeze on was commissioned income pine. it's tricky is for closer to me just being consistent enough for the cities, but the nature of more than 3000000. 1 of the things i would love to see in a company is read from the influence of the cbd, just the, the busiest zone,

call free zone. it should be cost free. if you're going to come into the city, the most you can do is cycle just sec. i'll finish by just cycling plus the us just cycle into the city that is very stiff for everybody. that is still for people who are cycling. it's safe for the people who are within the city. many of gardens associates driving with status bengal wants to change the minds it got to working on cycling is only for the poor or he's reading the message in schools. i have an accidental out to me with that code crushes who have an accident. and so many students, good in that, that somebody's petitions like my kid a university know introduced clean. i'm ability to replace motorized transport on campus. i just wish how it would be, how to look if this breaks where in the city imagine, oh, come part of the beautiful come power not to be choking component to be having the

depths. yes. yeah. oh no, no steroids. the end is always competing for clean systems as a professional broadcast, he knows how to use the media effectively. other things, each one of us has a good something to do. the way they can do it based is awareness. raise awareness point the issue that needs to be done and let somebody do that. innovation being done will be less concerned citizens in bucklin, at 220 kilometers activism. walk to the east of composite the 6, the jenny was his 2nd attempt to complete hundreds of kilometers on foot. participants enjoyed plenty of health benefits in the process. i thought it was kind of interesting close to pick mean sick, but also working helps me for my health, a busy clarity of mind. but when you,

where you identify with people what they like or how they behave, what they are putting any to the likes being that you probably never have boobs up in your driveway to jo. okay. he's convinced small strides to take the message from one step at the time he hopes to lead. you can get a safe, bright, and clean upon us. well, good luck to him. if you liked the reports or ha, something you would like to share about anything else in the show, then please write to us at eco, a. d, w dot com would love to hear what you think for now it's good bye for me. chris lives a nice area. thanks for watching. don't forget to head to equal offer online for moiz byron stories. so you again,
