8:32 am
east of poplar food in gonna to that's a lot more cool. and if it is a cool, decided, oh, this vegetable waste was wasted rescue in the last 10 years. you have run a business specialized in growing always to mushrooms because your vision process uses as of course, ro waste some of which would otherwise be banned in the fields. nothing is coming to the community. i realize most of them is on top of that. it's a ways to dispose of the course of with, with us. all they do is to bend the fmla and prepare the line for the next time you susan, when they do that, it's cause i'm restricted diseases and love cancer and even damage toward life. and i realize because that's really use of cultural ways to produce something beneficial. moses only that it's while it's full, but see what's put on our table and then with income. that's why i to this new
8:33 am
business. and from i believe yet, you also profits from that season is gross, mainly means one has to hector's misquoted vision, produces a lot of agriculture are arrested. you might say bless. and the business came to our community and we're no longer been my farm and i'm like, i always had to go nowadays. i gather the waste from my farm and sell it to the washer on company. and the village of hot from paying us that i waste and they sometimes gave us they organic compost from the factory of to production. so we can use it as specialize around the farm and don't need to stray chemicals. i g, g, a lab really is up renee, quite a williams that that accompany them on to fuck chase products from the maureen country. it's leaves 14 important 14 and 45 seats, as well as a wide range of white domains in monroe's. a graduate of mit in the ways we on
8:34 am
sunday to use that top 10 years ago, making powders juices and creams. but he says interpreter is in ghana fees. a lot of challenges. we have had situations where, you know, we're trying to get a local certification and we need all the requirements. everything has even been done as a letter saying is approved and it takes 14 months, not an exaggeration, 14 months to get the actual physical certificate. elaine c process, that means that the lee and the products reaching the market, that's granted williams built of unexplained safety nets wake of maureen, a pharmacist in the region around as a boy farm is having always seen lorinda as a profitable planned and the ones that are much now there with, with the company. the regular custom is for the refresh leaves suited for processing. in the last 10 years farm is i've also planted around 2000000 more of
8:35 am
these miracle trees from seeds. the harvest is sticking from the phones to a factory area, so i'm $56.00 low. make this away from gun is cut the stomach try yet the leaves i tried, processed and packaged. also for x board. we believe that what's going on actually also be processing done. so we do all the primary processing of our products savings on here right here in gardner leaves fresh leaves and dry leaves and powders and teams right here and on it. so that way we're creating jobs and i'm happy to share that we've now we not employed nearly 90 people across out of valley change just as the number of business just like he's also receive support from the ghana clements innovation st. that it offers red blood trainings and also carpet tiles. first, the tops will provide you with the business advisor and how works one to one with you and your team members. so the business advisor works with you on such and
8:36 am
relates as much which is right to it to bring about operational efficiency. but also to ensure that you know, your minimize, your call them footprint like the mushroom groceries with the support of the innovation of st. that they used exclusively, locally solid materials for the factory production is also low emission quality to compose beneficial, double waste is needed for their mushroom spoils. to mushrooms are ready to have missed after and mines the money. so he was generally able to miss just the cause of that, the month that's customers i knew for every day the company sells around 1000 kilograms of voice and mushrooms and my desktop tops. welcome. this difficult means is sold to the farm is so bold in technology can really help farmers in the fields. others can also help with selling the produce is set to go
8:37 am
abroad. and number 5, as i turned into the social media to reach out to new customers in the seats is now these ad griggs lies, us get to boost that income from that to other farmers and have fun see don't. i'm definitely my main shoots. his latest clinton for his thousands of follow, it's on tech, talk about them. and this is popularity online has grown, so have has sales with if you do, i was just making the videos for fun and i didn't even know the impact. social media was having danielle, but lately i've had a lots of clients with, especially from europe, or even from a distance. i do see what i'm doing. my may is among a new crop of thumb is revolutionizing synagogues, agricultural sick to using social media. it allows him to bypass costly middleman and negotiate directly with customers,
8:38 am
cutting costs and providing that personal touch a magic. but if it, if i prefer to make my own videos because you don't have to pay to do it. so the 5th on what do you do? you are in marketing, so you guess out what's in selling g right, gets out what you've been working on that be able to present that to say for me if it was much more natural and people are much more receptive to it and gaming even if it doesn't have the quality, even if it doesn't have the image, all the sounds that people like, what's natural, you show what you've already done without editing them up or doing anything. the more that stuff you haven't yet. some of these so called ed grow influences have now set up their own consultancies. no guy is one of them. she, she is videos and self. he's online, offering tips on how to grow and have as crops and manage funding projects. so i started using social networks in september, when i set up a been a agribusiness. it's about getting more visibility and finding people in general,
8:39 am
the customers i work with, i find on social networks, they contact me directly on instagram. so i give them my number and then i visit their fields in those and now i help them with production car, at least in a gulf agricultural sector makes up only a small proportion of the countries g, d p. but it's new government wants to cut imports and a cheap food sovereignty in the near future, offering fear tal ground for this new generation of tech savvy farm is to thrive and grow as follows. are used to working with nature. but those are for those who leave and cities awful find ourselves far removed from by the nature many cities don't even have much of greenery or trees that leads to pull a quality. rising temperature pushes out wildlife. with more and more people move into cities around the world, these need to change what, how we cross the gym the now for some possible ideas. concrete,
8:40 am
every last gray has replaced green. we constantly building more higher. foster concrete production is responsible for around 8 percent of c o. 2 emissions worldwide. and as i said, there's a full send us way using a dwindling results, namely signed and various other fossil results is that we can't use forever. we have to think about how we can build most sustainably on the cross. we absolutely need more greenery enough to use because they are overheating by some veterans is ridiculous, as it's a cool, if you think about it architecture and nature, diametrically opposed. we built primarily to protect ourselves from wild life or the weather for example. and that means the ways destroying nature in some way when we build through with us and it was just the, you know, that's with us for them to develop. but what if we were to a, with nature, you know, building rather than against an exhibition in berlin,
8:41 am
new showcasing projects that seek to do just that. how do trees grow together to form a structure? this question has fascinated architect faded and, and looked big for 20 years. he wants to connect buildings with trees and is constructing a kind of tree house in the city. ready cost to the corporate, so you have to work a lot with other associates, interdisciplinary will tell you what his botanists, forestry scientists, civil engineers, ecologists, we'll work together to pull on knowledge from different disciplines. so it can be used in the design in process. i'm going to let project into southern gemini shows what the building made of trees could look like of to 12 years. the plane tree team is i have a 10 me to sign a tour to then the neighboring can to go. the children use the shady space inside to play. otherwise it's home to insects and the, the, the trunks of the young plane trees of branch towns in grand together. the
8:42 am
architects check the gross regularly plain trays, the planted on all 6 levels. at the same time beach, in its own sounds of dogs. they say, appealing to areas of the plane trees outside of that plant as an inch, connect with the plane trees further round it off and from the then screwed together to i'm glad you the grubbing to one unit for walk, then they can move the boxes. ready they prompted more than 1000 plane trees because like with many of and trees, some of the seedlings died from disease or frost. in the years to come, the tree tops will grow together to full memory. a quick option might be fungus. this igloo hot is made of wood and fungus tunnels, the surface itself, the touch that the panels are right bust. so how do you get the hock materials from soft fungus? here to nature is the inspiration. the tend to fungus likes to grow on deciduous
8:43 am
trees attaching itself to the wood. biologist visa, that's a health. welcome. the fun guy house cultivating tend to fungus in the bar. a tree . she needs a source. it comes through. it's on the tree. so halts. this is, i meant this is this song, this is great for building just to just because through the, my cell in the root struck 2 of the fungus that grows on the ground residues have brought together. and that into linking creates a most stable material. how that introduced extra beautiful scottsdale, that makes it ideal for the developers of the fund. guy house, the collective of scientists, architects and autism, gross fund, guy coaches, and mixes them with various other materials, always including organic waste, like wood, shavings, own minutes. then they press the mixed it into shape. after a few weeks they came off the phone, guessed by heating, it's the material, then remains solid. it's already used for insulation. the building with it is nice
8:44 am
. scientists in the maybe a, a further ahead. voice to mushrooms trying, using a similar process. they've used the remains of the mushroom as a compass it material building blocks from the mixed. together with architects. they've used them to build the 1st house. the whole climate hand makes it possible that the team wants to facilitate affordable and environmentally friendly housing. african countries are also ahead enclave construction. traditional month homes with lots new, replaced in cities during the colonial era. now they're making a come back, especially in west africa. in government launch, house is a bank builds with compacted modules. they provide a good indo climate and stay cool in money. the traditional nubian volts has also being rediscovered it's spelled with money breaks, put it together with motels in europe, and the a few plan is a working with much like austria's mouse here. nicole who even produces logic
8:45 am
projects with round us wills, but must break buildings or otherwise, ret here, from the side and business. and so it's a g, b as privilege at the west and well we no longer build with much during the industrialization of construction in the 19th century, much was replaced mainly by concrete. in other parts of the world, it still use turn around. 40 percent of the global population live in my towns is today. we've just forgotten how to build this way around. how was the visit to see i'd like to live in the future? in a fun guy house, a month house, or a house made of trees. profession there comes the actually like a combination of all 3 month breaks for the load bearing wills on fungus installation. and trees on the outside, but the tree house when you're buying that, it's almost a cost that takes nick color instead of big machinery. you can just use crumbs to
8:46 am
build with trees. something very simple and cheap, but in the long term i think we need to be more diary and it's only 20. i'm looking at holland. well, if this was the to cause nice think this is the future. we need to what much more with nature and also against it. and you can give that to the nature of as a number of other materials like c weight which could also be suitable for construction even if for such is still in its infancy. the projects on display show how all could tech to and housing could protect both the environment and us humans . we've looked at ideas for new homes. but what the of all the buildings that already exist, all about greenery or roof tops to improve and quality, reduce and heat. and that's just the sides. we stay in euro. well i next for, for that had to dot city offer up to them. were experts i explored the vast potential of roof tops. okay, me on fun, rinse them, lives,
8:47 am
gardening and his workplace is this roof of a rush or dumb office building. his commitment to looking after plants and snails appear, goes beyond the joys of gardening for the state. it isn't to prolong icon, but it's becoming increasingly important for cities to store walter helping more and more water is flowing in the city office told me what's your down floods because the whole low and the sellers, the street and the tunnels are full because we have to find ways to store walter with green smart roofs, and it's the actually my doc, the voucher up to find it. like on this office building the 1st of its kind to our tanks under the roof that can store rainwater. guarding the sewer is against flooding during heavy rainfall. the roof this acts as a sponge doesn't clap. you said others evolve here at the flu. i've gotten a device to communicate automatically with a weather server and checks whether there is enough capacity for more reading. walter guide, if not to open up what's your history and also a bit of english take,
8:48 am
but i'm on the on comment about the better through a piping system on the buildings exterior. the future, the water will be used for the garden or to flush the toilets in the building. but the system is expensive and too heavy for many buildings. so for now, the roof tongues are still the exception. for the new box, it's just required to do anything with the roof. so if new buildings, but even just on existing buildings, there are around 400 square kilometers. it's flat tories area, plus the pit triggering cells. and so we could connect tool to build insect hotels, to bio diversity orange to solar collectors. there's a numerous potential that isn't being exploited yet or feel more innovations, such as lighter materials are needed by project times plan is clear to have more smart roofs become a sponge city. we come back to africa now, and it's often said beauty in the eye of the beholder. well, web ball to meet
8:49 am
a man who was loved to see beauty in all news you objects and then make it visible to others. i mean, does it, it's is done in fashion. just take a look at this week's, go in your bits. this is not your every day clean up. permission to bleak it. you said you did you cool is collecting, just called the cons and best know shorts. each of them, extreme district is going to turn them into pieces of off large scale images of like conflict because i'm selling this don't use this bridge because um, i believe is bought both ways. he's going to call body saw face off at one day. if mike was tom, well what to live? it's gonna cost um to him on the assets do use this up to 1000 fragments of crimes, depending on the size of the artwork. first reading system, disinfect, the con,
8:50 am
this is collected ben cox that meets a strips. i'm nice, there me support from 50 to 60000000 tons of aluminum waste generates a globally every year and several 100009 jared alone. but it's also one of the most recycled materials to be case out as even a truck that attention within the drinking and st. this bull street was commissioned by the managing director of union live. i ain't gonna increase. will caesar is supposed to be case of cycling mission as a way of reducing waste kind of need to be disposed of was they are using the right way. and so please do not just lit up the environment with that, please dispose of property a cheap week a if they do to cool describes themselves as an environmental artist on the streets
8:51 am
of process as a for most of the diversity with the suffering of the planet. to pop of the journey depends our environmental policies are taking. i'm thinking it's the safety environment. a well what a talent. now as you all probably aware whether apartments are changing all over the world and becoming more predictable, that's close to likely by use of fossil fuels, repeated droughts and northern kenya, habits additional cut to farm and extremely difficult. so far, most of finding new ways of adapting to the changing climates in the heart of central kenya, this site is becoming increasingly common kennels wandering across the once capital dominated landscapes of like keep us so hudson and like 65 year old of july, he mohammed these kennels are lifeline. corporate can i see the before the drought?
8:52 am
i and heard of the cattle. but when the drought head oh but one of the cattle died and now i'm on the left with one second. the larger the 2020 drought was one of the worst kenya has seen in decades across the country, thousands of 100 is lost. the capital as cost is disappeared, leaving families devastated and without the main source of livelihood. up to 2600000 capital perished. these codes the need traditional live stock, the up to allow his family has left a now mainly has camels very number one day where and cattle is difficult when the pastor is destroyed and some candles are easier to rear. they feed on trumps and supplies. and how shall conditions when the passage rise out in the castle, di? oh, i know the light is feeling the impact of drought spreading south unpredictable rains all turning its one screen passages into barren land,
8:53 am
neighboring some brewery faces. similar challenges as the ongoing drought means families have to travel long distances to fetch all set for themselves. and the animals 26 year old team of santia has been full to adapt. the hudson has also switched from capital to camels. say again that you know when the draft came and we understood the fiscal capital, we sold the dead bolt. 5 camels, one from the camels will help us survive until it rains again. love a. we floss a be this up on the site, like many in the region lasonya has lined camels with their ability to survive on less water and feed on tough vegetation. a best associate to the new reality. they can lose 30 percent of that body weight and survive. and they also have a high, a milky open couse. but the move from capital to camel heading is not without
8:54 am
challenges. cartridge deficient, puget, this limits. but for companies that decision period this uh, 11 to 14 months. so 2 months to play cummins a to declare a longer time compared to custom to the so it's may not be possible to get to the cut, the end comes as quickly as possible. so how does in central kenya, the connection to the traditional livestock remain strong? one of the bit loose of the what is the range retarded? we cannot sell 2 or 3 candles to purchase a cow, the purchase of milk ill. but for now, the switch, the channels is helping them build resilience for the future to be there. and they talk to you about the reduced assessing the communities. and we can do to manage with the processes that they can do with additional crazy where
8:55 am
they can handle a few a to so usually, you know, just isn't about to 10 minutes you that do. so that to the, in the communities i don't at atlanta community point, it's the traditional pastor list way of life is to continue communities have to find ways to share their results is and find climate tricity and alternatives. camels can provide them with much needed stability. so it's amazing the most and that brings us to the end of visitation of eco africa. i hope you've enjoyed all stories as much as i have if you'd like to seals reported on any particular environmental issues there rights to us at ico a d, w dot com for now is good bye for me, chris, a legs a nigeria. the
