6:30 pm
was to share the you could share your own with children with just $0.50 and a tab on your smartphone. together we can end global hunger. please download the the fly contract, maybe it will be lucky enough. bottoms won't get wet and nothing had done. but there are muddy feet in any case. that's how it is when you're walking across the c bed can includes and does it for fun. off of germany's north sea coast, he is probably the only much let milman in the world. i know you're a lot of times she delivers to exactly one family for noticed like a family member and principal for all of us father. the
6:31 pm
regular water level reports are critical. less tied low water for $31.00 today at 3 o ac. and i need to discuss how the water was 3 quarters i bought in the nice yes i'm from now. we've got 575. that's still a whole lot on it. and what from yeah, so it's got to be about 5 made is then you can make it through the narrow channel and that's when it's not too stormy and the waves are a bit higher. but i'm optimistic now. stop this. yes. what can you see? a 69 year old clued clinton in his post office in his home on the island of telephone. the mail doesn't move when low tide isn't low enough. newton can't deliver then. the tide, such as ours. as long as it looks like this outside, there won't be any mail. 6 hours later, the mud flaps also known as the spot in german. i'm mostly out of the water to see
6:32 pm
bed as possible, and the mud flap. mailman begins his rounds. his load is heavy and he's been officially commissioned by german. he's postal service, georgia post. so i think the final and i always pack it in plastic while it's in case it rains. the. the backpacks on totally would of course the but the me take what i can take and sometimes i strap it on. it's a little bit bulky on offensive. this is debbie guys. gosh, yes, cool. and the refrigerator. yes. to bring them on a shipment. the weather app helps him decide what to wear and wish to avoid it. today. maybe we'll get lucky without getting wet home a foot from the sky. yes. from the sky. whenever possible clips and goes topless. that's his style. we'll take a jacket now, but normally when the weather is good,
6:33 pm
i just go like this. 7 kilometers away from home is the agreed meeting place on the embankment. renewed regularly takes vacationers along his route. people with local knowledge rarely come. the guess scan the horizon. they ask themselves, where are we going now off to the tiny island of leader on the mountains. when we make it come like this, we don't walk straight towards the island. we make a big look is excellent. it's about 6 and a half kilometers long. then how many still and then we stay for now and go back the same way to that. and we'd like to cover these 6 and a half kilometers in an hour and a half high on the cabinet shop. for like maybe we'll get lucky and wanting to end up with what both of them definitely had done. usually only think tank of data on community likes walking in the walk alone. let's put it this way. he doesn't ask
6:34 pm
people to join him when he doesn't, or do i like to go to the village not, or if one of you turns around, that's okay. i get it and i'll tell them we're coming. very cool in small, i'm a then a surprising order is sent from the embankment to the mudflats. who like coffee, page feed, 350. how do i got his hi, whole guy? it's good not to use in here. the metal some know tweak to not. it was, it was a tough, active one day. and once that one off have all by give one odd mit then save me one second. what do you do? so on germany's northern coast, people speak the country's only regional language, called plaque deutsch. the group booked a hike across the mud flats and now they're walking into the north sea. your 1st impression there some uniform calls
6:35 pm
so yeah the here it's a bit data fits and p 5. as he said, the low water isn't really that low. low. no, we're still waiting through quite a bit of water. but it's doable. it's difficult. and we still have a way to go. so let's take a closer look at the root. the island of code one is located off the german coast in the mud flats. it's a unesco world heritage site, a tourist magnet and home can you can it's and there's no question the island is flat cows down in the meadows and the lighthouse is important for shipping. deal of houses are located in hamlets with curious names. there's lots of wind and even more sheep. by the way, there are more sheets and people. plus, there's a 13th century church with
6:36 pm
a broken steeple. and historic oregon from the 18th century. starting from 12 on the roof goes to the tiny. i lived little dog, delivering the meal on foot is partly tradition, but it's also more practical. how would a boat be able to get here? for the group? land is finally within sight, but they're also thinking about getting their wet feet on solid ground to meet to minutes and passes the time we discussed by reminiscing about telephone in days past been general one i was born here have, i mean there was still a midwife back then i'll go back and i grew up here to almost when i went to the mainland for a few years, but i always landed here again, cuz i'm the head of all. i'm used to be much more beautiful. the office and the people home, but the ones who come now they've changed for good act. then the guests who came would get a boy go down to the beach and would be satisfied with what while they came to feed
6:37 pm
me with me for from boy doing today. everyone has to be entertained with them. i mean, we get that and on. well i guess it's just what happens with timely offices for the last side the there is no marked cash, nothing refilled for miles. but to meet newton news, every inch of this route one is if you want to put them back on, if not, you can leave them here by coming back this way. if you go for 5, the, the group comes to a stop. we're approaching one of the highlights of the walk in the mud flaps so you're not gonna be as only going to make your turn here a for alpha pseudo dog. and that's when there's
6:38 pm
a light colored mix of sand and shelves are given this. that gave me those links, the image i left around the islet for a while. whatever room 10000 plants and animals bases live in the mud flats. many of them in the sea bed need is fascinated by the strictly protected floor and found out of the box. when his predecessor suddenly became ill and the job was much let mailing and opened up. he didn't hesitate to take the job almost 25 years ago. you have found there aren't any cars here? yes. there's no traffic noise. we can really hear the birds here up close. how? so when this thinking what makes this miracle possible? that new to newton and his guest can stroll on the sea bed? there are times all over the world, but it's rare for sea, but to be as exposed as it is here. the baltic sea is almost completely closed off and water can barely flow. in the north sea is the opposite. it opens up north and
6:39 pm
lots of water flows with the tide. nixon is causing the loss leaders and arriving at the is less there's no big fanfare. just a terse, northern german welcome. hello. all your. it's more like if it's the guests are exhausted, but glad to be their final. they're super. it was a really good height above a once in a lifetime experience crossing the mud flats to get to an island. yeah, i'm just, yes, it was a little strenuous but otherwise very nice. have you been to the lot before? yeah, yes. regularly. we go up to the north sea every year, regardless of result. so northly, the farm house was the only building on the island re i'm a bit so we brought a bit of some of the low your
6:40 pm
a lot of that it was really good. yeah. can you breeze the mail into the house himself, then stopped to rest for a bit. during that time, the guest get a short presentation about life on the i'll it guy he often here on the land that 60 hector's and 40 hector's, our pastor land with cobra. fox is cheap on the top. we have several hurts like raise all of this because comes to us. so besides the sea for people live, i'm 0 dog, a mother or father and 2 children. and 3 times a week to meet as part of the family to something like a part time grandad. it's time to report on loss, teeth and swimming exams to take them off the all states. it said that i could see this in principal canoe, just like a family member for all of us is full time and it's completely clear when there's something happening. when the children have birthdays, notice there to pick up after christmas or other holidays. if i tag
6:41 pm
a know you're all, well, i don't have any children. so as far as that goes. yeah. of course as well. absolutely. can i see there's no difference whether we're related or not. it's nowhere yet. so i, if it was just business only not, this wouldn't work just because i would just be coming here and putting a post in the mailbox that the fed like this. the nude already fell in love with 0 or all decades ago. as a young man, he was here working to build the coastal conservation works. since almost all summer i was during the wake and at this fee i just have a connection with this. i left it so now it's time to go back. a brisk southwest wind has kicked up and the clouds are sticking, and they have the march back across the months left ahead of them. then it happens . they end up getting wet, bottoms,
6:42 pm
and wing don as well. how many kilometers have you done? how does off way around that light? which doesn't like 25000 even. how many more will there be your comfortable farm? it depends how long i stay fit, live, say, and yadda village. i want to do it for 10 more years. now i'm 70 years old. i hope to do it as long as i can, like the dipping independent, arise to society is full of contrasts and inequality is
6:43 pm
a big many problems can only be solved by working together. yes, i think i pretend as a new slaves and what is home how do we talk of the major issues about time to because there is a significant risk of human extinction from advancing our systems. climate changes the new frontier assistant our series continues on d. 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 current use events analyzed by excess increase. the
6:44 pm
cool thing here is not just another new, so this is the weekdays on d w. the from the prior into the fuel tank is used cooking oil, the environmentally friendly solution for old combustion engines. i always say there are more restaurants than fuel stations to land rodolfo rod. it certainly is convinced that this technology and already use it to power his camper, van visa convert if i feel i'm doing the right thing, i'm protecting the rivers and protecting the environment and getting his mission with the camper. to educate people about recycling is gold. a pre cross border transport solution. it's almost like we're in a key of frontier 4 by 4 from 2004 with
6:45 pm
a 2.9 liter diesel engine on your it runs flawlessly. in seats 6 people, big guy, we're living together. we've converted it into a camper. what makes this camper special? pit runs on recycled cooking oil. this vehicle is called the edge you camper who comes to the edge you can't per, has to fuel used cooking oil and diesel tv and it has 2 fuel lines. but also use this a small onboard computer to switch between the 2 fuels. this computer shows him a lot of data, like the temperature of the oil, which is critical information. it from them in this system only works with 100 percent vegetable oil. and what's essential is that it's heated remote 1st i use diesel until the water from the radiator one's up. and once the water is hot, that heats the oil within the oil tank was a coil system or
6:46 pm
a water heater system. it's been thrown by heating the vegetable oil in a separate tank. the alternative fuel requires a viscosity and burning properties. similar to diesel vegetable oil is not suitable as a fuel for gasoline engines. folder diesel engines on the other hand, can be easily converted since the technology used in the injection systems and the mission systems. it's very robust, not the, even though it's not an oil vehicles can be converted to run on oil just to see many can be one that there are some specific motors that are believe to not support oil as a fuel some way not, but of my faith and perfect, so you definitely have to do a little research before adapting a vehicle, a bit of an indian. but if there are specific simple motors that also always work in the same way with you and. and then i mean more money to the onboard computer helps rodolfo switch from diesel to oil very easily. even while driving
6:47 pm
this opens a solid annoyed valve that allows oil to enter the engine. and when i press it again, it closes the oil solenoid valve and opens the diesel solenoid valve. then the one of the biggest advantages with this system is that you can refuel wherever you want. and it's free of charge. all you need is used cooking oil from the kitchen and a filter. there's much more attention, i do the oil mazda the longer my engine will perform, because i have to filter the oil. yeah, it's been decanted for a long time. the impurities will have settled at the bottom where they forget to go, but if this is oil i collected a short while ago. you might have particles of french fries and been yacht as a chicken or anything that has been cooked in it too much within the system with
6:48 pm
a my oil fuel line. there's another field to that. again, filters minor particles in your web. so here at this point, i really try to capture all the bigger particles. pass over capture the 1st field tracing process, but also looking for the oil straight into his 10, which is located at the back of the camper. its capacity is $100.00 leaders which lets the vehicle travel around 800 kilometers. so the going to be good if i'm going to cover long distances, i can carry several drums and filter the oil anywhere. i say i use 100 percent oil . when i use oil, i use 100 percent oil. i don't mix it with diesel, and i don't make biodiesel either. and i don't need method all. i don't need to do any chemical process has to have a fuel. i get to a restaurant and i can filter it outside the restaurants and use it for that. use that look. but you can't just use any oil from the kitchen. if the oil is mixed
6:49 pm
with water, for example, it doesn't work. since the process of separating the oil and water is too complex, plus palm oil is too hard to thought that the if i heated up to a high temperature, it will liquefy a federal visit, but it needs to be very hot. the music there might the to my system can withstand sheet to 40 degree celsius, more in and in my vehicle need an oil back dentist can't be used to then. so the technology itself is not new in the 2 thousands, some cars and europe ran on vegetable oil. at gas stations, you could sometimes even get rate seat oil. and full rodolfo. it's not a 1st for him to have a vehicle powered by recycled cooking oil between 20082010. the 41 year old drove
6:50 pm
from canada too late in a b, w golf using cooking oil. the leaders the allowed out i had a 1987 vw golf, a 1.6 liter diesel named laura visa and one of them that also ran on oil. yes, it, that expedition from canada to chilly lasted 22 months going on. is it ethics, place you on that kind of, we covered 17 countries and we have 11 people who bordered and disembarked at various points. it was like an uber, savannah, is there a 100 and for one over at that time for adults will have the idea of using the car to educate people. the securing funding for the trip. he visited, schools displayed the car and explained the concepts of recycling. give hello, what was incredible was meeting very remote indigenous communities throughout latin america and in between us and to our maybe can reaching all the capital city, the scarlet. that'd be dallas and collaborating with everyone with the messages of
6:51 pm
caring for the environmental zone we. i'm being that we helped highlight the importance of rivers, you know, we use the in the struggle to take care of and defend the rivers and they need to educate people about environmental issues related to rivers, a, b, e, a. u, i didn't know who got you, but also most current camper isn't just for his own use. he also tries that to schools in the south of the country and provides environmental education there. he carried out most of the modifications needed to make the camp or run on oil himself . with the help of a mechanic friend a month to see to cause units harder to co pay than to install an oil system in the car. in the end, it's adding an extra few lines and bringing hot water to the system. you have a layout. what can the and say, i say that the original engine was
6:52 pm
not disturb during the modification. there were merely a few parts added into the radiator, has an extended water circuits in choir which we take to the external tank at the back. extend mazda. now we have the main engine idea tiers. the injection part you said says here you can see the injectors and you've been able here we have the water after it's run through the cooling system, cools the engine model and look at the one of the. busy busy road before it gets to the radiator, we take it out there most ago. i worked at the end and send it through this hot waterloo that was extended to the external oil tank and the back i was i didn't feel since you got it. thank you. the hot water from the engine compartment comes here to the back of the oil tank that is drained off for the extra water circuit. and with the help of this spiral of water, the oil is constantly heated. another water spiral was installed in the engine
6:53 pm
compartment where there is a filter imbedded in this way. the oil arriving from the tanks is kept warm until the end and is filtered again in front of the injection. there were some teething problems at the beginning of the july and shrugs up concerns that lines filters and injection pumps. could break the we take into these all the people say all the injectors are going to fail to visit and if you them all diesel cars need the same maintenance you then you had a diesel car without oil see and i say you still have to make changes come you, you still have to do maintenance on injection thought to save them by. and so with oil, it's the same. you mean, and the more you take care to filter and decamped the oil, the longer you can maintain it and guide is a month. you also can recommend this type of converted drive train to many people, especially travelers and long distance drivers. but he also thinks the mugs makes sense for school buses and garbage trucks. in
6:54 pm
addition to the technical upgrade for adults, okay, the camper, a new color photos of the page i feel like i'm doing the right thing. even though i drive slower and i get dirtier because i have to filter the oil and collect the oil. but i'm protecting the rivers and protecting the environment. paper. and i'm helping to let other people know that they can also do so. and they can do it by recycling oil and converting all old diesel engines to vegetable oil is never going to happen. not all engines are suitable for the conversion offers no benefit for short journeys. and the time it takes to collect a filter in the oil, as well as the slower drive it is likely to determine many people. but for those
6:55 pm
who still want to enjoy traveling in a vehicle that runs on recycled oil, but also may have the right solution for cross border inter continental transport. the when the, your view of when i say i want transport from kind of going into alaska to be intercontinental public transport. i'm thinking there would be some vehicle. yeah. yeah. for vehicles of equal always criss crossing, the american lady got see. and the aim is to spread the idea that began here at the foot of the act of the week of ok now across the entire western hemisphere. rudolfo rod at will travel many miles to achieve this goal. and who knows, maybe one day he'll find himself on a bus running on recycled cooking oil from patagonia to alaska, the
