i'm sorry, one second, let me just finish this. hello and welcome. i'm sorry with everybody i'm, you're watching recording this. most of us do what i just did with that. we simply throw things away when we're done using the, the comp and or shot or the use factory like we can do a lot better. that's find out how upside thing is a cooling concept. like when we think of slices clothing, we don't really single, anything too fancy. so today let's meet the woman who's done this motion on his head. she is a fashion designer who's making waste wireless and trend, you know, wide web is actually generates more than 92000000 tons of fixed. i waste each year . ideas like this could really make a difference. my name's sky, summer, tiny cod and um okay. i'm going to start again. my name's kind of special on

econ and i'm from india. i'm the found to say that akasha, we will not rate in index tires and high level, and we do a lot of upside. the i was stored by someone in lifetime you because it's an intelligent boy and it was that people also viewed oxford and do something. things were doing life while starting fashion and just does not find the best option for me is we'd be more than just the product that we landed on weight is a box of all the way i would as a country, as well as the world and where we may go to the i would be lying. if i said, i always wanted to verify some design. i wanted to be so needed. some things i wanted to feel like an aerospace of, by an audiologist. i wanted to be a veterinarian, all sorts of things. but somewhere along the way, i had a book which my father said, how does it seem like to drop thoughts?

awesome, well, it's 10 after the movies and i would like descriptions of what they will. i'm not going to do. so my father that i want to be a fashion designer. i'm sorry, the fashion of the okay, was subbing there. like they were talking about recycling, exciting sustainability. so i thought, oh my god, it's so interesting. but then when i, what about, uh oh my god, you know, what is upside doing? what is it a site like at home when, why don't i look for anything? i can get a bunch of people together and we can just create this beautiful product. why and not being wastewater? why same people connect me? why not towing things into the college? can the i think the hardest part of starting the is the just starting. i like being like,

i'm going to just do this. i sound, it sounds like my dad's by me. then i move to my mom's office 15 to say and then leave to go a lot to 5 to fit and take the wife house. and we took another space and we had other issues like 20 the accounts or how would resource everything, how is coming here, all the hiring people like how do you find the right person to get on board the or if there's one easy thing was yeah, definitely lovely with the photo fashion, a 1000000 fashion makes complete sense. i mean, and then assumes that a window is open and we're being somewhere. so from that point of view into, i'm remaining fashion is most vaudeville. if it go down, you will still be able to mix that under, produces a fashion. i mean, so sometimes all make them trust you. and believe you takes a bit of time,

especially when you're like a 20 to 22 to send this out of college. and let's do this on. definitely people who could, you know, we were doing or just like the princess who inside the i actually got paintings. i mean, i was asked to that now because of the name of it we're going to do is because i don't even work so high. so for me that was one time, and i love that actually when i, once i would tell you people, i would expect different things from the i think gosh, i would just about making something that's not going to hurt anyone. we don't say it was sustainable by from us. what we're doing is we're saying that let's this thing good. let's lots to say, let's not exploit and let's make photo sound good for downloading netflix products

that you know, also making it always get on screen plays. let's say for the last, for a long time, the, when i say they put it on me thinking and talking about the children's education like that to me is a very hard for me all when i see them talking, wonder why is now going to walk like that and makes it and i said we're doing something correct. wendy relies that all these things are so important inclusion the i think that if we just stop the motion, if he just needed it, i told him no, i need didn't just it was was because there were times i got this thing that it is a feeling that things have changed quite like, i mean 3 evenings and these are changing. so

why brands like gosh, are changing things up in a great way. it's wednesday is a lot more than the 1st of small labels to address the problem of 6. i was only one percent of the deal with 6 sided waste is actually the cycle and this is the use of them for using this but that or is that is unusual that will sooner or later gasoline just of the fashion industry, roughly 10 percent of a global compet emissions stand from the text on industry. it's also incredibly resource intensive. guzzling up some 90000000000 cubic feet of water annually. that's 4 percent of global fresh water usage. unloading water goes into producing all codes, almost always these and, but he does go through heavy, heavy chemical processes to make them the way they are today. whether it's finishing, whether it's dying, priyanka, qana collaborates with brands and produces to foster sustainable innovation and

fashion, which is why it is mostly not even the nation. what do you does onto the di biodegradable? and it takes sometimes over to 100 years for these materials to buy it as a degrading the industrial. and that's a big problem because we produce a lot of textile waste. in the us, tex always has grown 80 percent since the year 2000. rachel keeps even set kind of services great, which supports industry and government and reaching sustainability goals is our fastest growing waste stream. we send over 30000000000 pounds of tech styles to landfill every year in the us alone, most of our old clothes and in landfill. what does induced frequently bend unsold stove can donate it ok thanks a frequent need shipped to the global south for resale, such as here in a crowd gonna with 40 percent of what arrives is actually considered charge the us . and so the 600000000 key that is of use closing abroad every year,

largely to the rest of the americas. while you are a big sports, i have a one and a half 1000000000 kilos. much of it to african. often it is dumped, bend overloads oceans and waterways. textile waste isn't just old, well warm toes. it also includes excess stock and the scraps generated during production. less than one percent of this video that's expected today, which means all of this is going somewhere. when we collect close there, primarily going to be sorted for reuse, that's the highest value. so some of those clothes may be down cycle and so insulation, some may be sold as wiper rags, and then a small portion can be mechanically recycled. but mechanical recycling has its limitations. in 2020 full mechanical recycling is the best option we have close of chops up and spun into a new 5. it's, it's way back to the landfills,

but it also involves a drop in quantity. and it's read that such materials can be recycled again. but the could soon change. there are a bunch of exciting new recycling companies posting new technology and hoping to taylor in the future for tech style waste. firstly, those chemical recycling tech styles of broken down to the molecular level. and then we built into various materials. while some companies only recycle caution australia is blocked, techs can recycle blended material, chemically separating synthetic polyester from natural costs. and 5 is polyester is converted into pellets which can be used for textiles, orders to wheels and construction. while cotton, cellulose is turned into clay that us uses in textiles, agriculture and even packaging. the flexibility is intentional. i would never want to be beholden to my outtakes just one brand,

because i know how badly those those brands can behave. adrian jones co founded blog, tx in 2018. we prefer block text to have that takes that can be useful to many robs and just be useful to want. i think that's been a real difference for us in the industry. everybody's is preoccupied with making more textiles locked text recently announced it with expands capacity to $10000.00 tons a year. refresh, global invalid also emphasizes flexibility to you. back to you, you break down on sanitized. textile waste, creating 3 role materials. nano settlers, eval on spanish highs. tex, phone, pope 3 refresh cables. pub is these materials? i used to make anything ranging from furniture, to bike frames, to f, an old based cosmetics refresh. global is a relatively new company plans to develop a network at smaller facilities that can be developed quickly and flexibly with

partners. that's quite different to sweden's renew. so one of the world's biggest chemical textile recyclers. it was among the fist to build an industrial scale tech style recycling facility. the cotton tech styles a shredded into a slurry, separated from contaminants and dried into sheets of what they call secular. secular settlers, which can replace virgin materials like cotton oil would in the production of new high quality textiles. going down to the molecular level helps maintain quality. i'm a new cell says it's stuck you. those can be recycled. 7 times. there are limits. the new cell can know you recycle waste is 90. 5 percent of costs are no purist, meaning a lot of what goes to landfill isn't eligible for new cells. recycling pump opened in 2022 with capacity to recycle 60000 tons annually written to expands. to

820000. but in february 2020 full came the shock and the company filed for bankruptcy. just days before and renew sell told the w. they were recycling fall below capacity and fashion brands were hesitant to commit to recycle materials. we could be producing a lot more tricia carries the chief commercial officer knew so many of the brands have goals, search for circularity or reduction traceability waterfalls. uh, you know, variety. so it's, we are a solution to their goals. it's how quickly do they want to be able to achieve those. renew, sell partnered with levi's to recycle production waste and include stuck, you know, send the products h and then became a shareholder in 2017. but still, the plant didn't make a profit in its 1st year. it has been something that has shoak. most of us work in

us has been a relative fixed task. theresa dominic research to sustainability management, and then t. c. l universities, existing business models in way too, most of fashion brands are messed it. they don't really have 40 initiatives 9 renew . so the did really while did to really be able to, to make a while recycling costs reliance on both the hungry cotton and oil based in statics, it's more expensive. it would take some 7000000000 year rates to scale up recycling to hit 20 percent of textile wasted. your by 2013. there isn't enough push from the legislation side to force the investor to, to actually adopt these. my data is so not the investigation required for thing, but if it's going to be more expensive material, if it's the transition with the houses of the supplies, the thing is naisha. with all the brands that they decided and across the board,

it really does is a function of inflammation. so have them having access to everything, which is not easily done until legislation usually takes that o. d u. s. monday is that by 2025 member countries begin collecting checks don't waste separately, just like they do with paper, plastic gonzales, which should improve on the $0.22. waste is currently separated during proposed legislation in the u. s. e. u is in some modeling, a dual requiring produces to pay for the processing of that text on waste. we have to ensure that these laws don't just charge the producers for one portion of that puzzle. like just collection. it has to also facilitate the infrastructure for both reuse and recycling and the innovation around that right now, recycling isn't profitable, stays active, could also set the tone by adopting tockets themselves. the us to be successful. as

a result of that, we have to have committee that takes and that's where government and private enterprise has a role to apply in saying that a government the chicks is very large procures of products. meanwhile, swedish reflects every new cell has phone to buy. a private equity investor also has bought the company's remaining assets. also invest in industries that helped to reduce comp and emissions text. though recycling is one of them. the company is now to be renamed suck, you know, it's like it's fiber. but despite the progress in tex dollar recycling, there's still more to be done. recycling is to sell only one part of the problem of a current consumption backend of cannot continue if you want to move to what the most sustainable of investigating that is a huge amount of over production in the industry and to whoever is responsible for

that. it's just a lot of the debate around that. bottom line is that a will production needs to, to reduce the 100000000000 governments. we produce each, it means volt teams that every person in the world, if we couldn't convince function victims to stop buying the body weight in clothing, at least we can ensure that as much as possible of what they purchase is recycled. dealing with waste is the same house as last problem across the hill. that's half of the southern said to sell mulatto. so what josh center web garbage is being done into something very useful and it is helping new life noon in a garden, and they aren't just on demand to establish it trusts visitors from far and wide. the military mountain really is one of india's oldest bossing to the military. his income and not the town of good news is

a major stuff on the way the tourists are very welcome here. in addition to the ruling t plantations, the holidaymakers are key source of income. but there are downsides. 16 tons of raised are produced each the by the tones $45000.00 residents. then there's the garbage left by the tourist. partnership 192000 but more than 10 years ago in 2013 after the festival of the wiley, i saw a facebook post written by one of my friends stating that they were going to clean the waste through an order by the tourists as another point joined, so i decided to join in la nadia slowly. many other volunteers joined us do. then we started to dream about cleaning up the river that runs to canada. and it was while cleaning the river that we started looking for the place i need to dump the waste to quickly and go corporate long through pot the law nadia on the some of it . there was no model lance in sight and could nor at that time. so the idea of

processing, the waste was born, the volunteer garbage collectors, set up a clean for new organization. they're able to keep the mountain screen for themselves and the visitors. the 1st step was to separate the garbage into dry and which waste the wet garbage is made up mostly of animal and salon. twist though not made to base 2 out of the one that we collect. all the lead weighs in one place inside the width waves found it. then it is shifted to work on veil solid, organically, whether or not organic impurities are removed from files, but i after the ition, it is then mixed with other vegetables and food waste allow me a lot for them. expanding this mixture then has to dry. during this process, it gets regularly over to the end of the 40 days. the dry moss is then shredded and crowned. the result is high quality for the laser that is bought out by local

summers. the, all the flow of thumb is a regular customer to the full government in the city already put all these flowers, why we need a value of $6.00 to $7.00 and our fertilizer is the end to because this fertilizer has a lot of flowers growing vasquez's, but it's also the nitrogen, fos, sort of production machine and its contents, mike the nutrients do. and 2nd to the nutrients like magnesium, sausage and gotomeeting, it will be a full service move. all these tell the plans to robo kind of looking quantity and quality with the top as us and a lot of the vs life of the plants has also increased. good news now for recess is 2 thirds of its garbage, which weighs its don't into for the lives of an 85 percent of dry waves is recycled . let's roll it over a little bit because we are successfully managing ways and within the small town, the limited number of people, resources and marketing as well. if we can do that, sure. it would definitely be possible in larger towns or not have

a many advantages or us plans for problem in large stone, or there are no problems with drugs available and there's a lot more got to be able to, to point to here. we have to do everything by hand, but it's not that drones what to manage with. like this log. it would also be a great success, a little bit more and a lot. it can be a great selection of taurus or against looking to the down this your drawn by the famous really and because good nor is a picture. histone which has got its waste problem under control moving on. so anyways, let's talk about matching as easy is or electric vehicles, staples, there is one big question. what happens to the use batteries of the rising number of electric cars, less types of germany when you, these are gaining traction, reciting back. these can be a complex process, but this can be done on your part or checked out a new battery, the slicing launch. you have the in the event of any emergencies. and electric

vehicle battery has to be dropped into water as quickly as possible when recycling these 2 safety requirements are enormous. a warehouse like this one has to be flooded with foam within minutes. the batteries are extremely flat level or explosive. that the since we opened, we've been an interesting journey that it was pretty excited and even at the beginning the employer is the 1st company to do recycling could make a huge fortune. that's because batteries contain valuable metals, like cobalt and nickel flights. all we expect 15000000 electric vehicles on german roads by 2030. when the 15000000 is practically the day after tomorrow. i think you're not likely stadium, or which is a weird visiting europe's largest recycling plant for electric vehicle batteries, which opened just a few months ago. the be seeing you were standing here in one of the most expensive floors in germany. the implementing safety 1st doesn't necessarily mean saving

money. you'll be at ease in the floors and absolutely watertight so we have several major stick also stand equipped with a sensor that would notify us immediately if any substances were to sleep into the ground, giving them the batteries delivered, have issues and have been pulled out in the car factories, however, only a few are still coming here to clean it off more with our focus is primarily on testing and implementing new technologies and then using them, we're focused on learning as much as we can to be ready for when the old batteries come out the high volume suddenly arrives. uh i was coming up i'm, i just wouldn't even come that high volume will arrive when the batteries of the 1st generation of electric vehicles fail in a few years. then big business will back in with the so called black masks and the metals it contains the initiative on from a launch. what our goal is to recover 95 percent of our nichols,

which is the most expensive, most valuable or including live them and cover. of course, all the world is turning to electric vehicles and the demand for these metals for batteries will grow significantly by recycling them. manufacturers could reduce the need to source them from mines with or working conditions, visits, or to dependent on raw materials from 3rd countries. if the material from the german recycling plant ends up in a pilot plant in northern europe, the battery is shredded and using a chemical process turned into what's known as black mass, the black gold of the recycling industry. among other things, you can extract this green mix of nickel, manganese and cobalt from it, which is used in this form for new batteries. but is the price right now with prices? it's difficult to give exact prices at the moment because the business is still in development and what's more world market price is fluctuate great life. yeah,

that makes it difficult to calculate the concept. see the fest. so that's when operations get ramped up, much of the process will be automated. however, the batteries still need to be improved for high recycling rates. with the also with car batteries, we can clearly see that the german car manufacturers are now focusing more and more on optimizing product design for a cycling design. so they want to work with us and because they are just as interested in a raw materials as we are and the wholesale, they also want to close the cycle and you're often chi self sneezing and high recycling rates, such as for aluminum, have another advantage in the end, they're also good for the climate the, the toner, meaning of every ton of aluminum that we can return to the smelters. for example, we will save 95 percent in energy and therefore c o 2 l 2. these are the real heroes of quasi raw materials compared to raw materials that we get from the minus to the balancing needing to come. the operators of the recycling plant have

invested 1000000 and see what they believe will be a safe bet. so many better ways to deal with josh, we will do you with the trash in your home in any unit with the address? no, you can email us already talked to me directly on my social media handle. i will see you next week until then take care bye. almost got the hunting for treasures ocean. scientists are diving into

a world of endless possibilities which animals or plants might cure diseases. which raw material might psalms, our energy problems, see treasures and how researchers hope to find them tomorrow. today, the next on d. w. human in the grips of business, he knew this 10 years of misery, destruction. and what role does that play in the car? in the middle east conflict, we go into jeremy through the country to stop in to oh is on d w the

jesus are welcome. definitely use your portal to hand pick trainings on this side and in this story. so just to take away the, what's the discovery fascinating chases to great idea. compelling, confused. thoughts? your offline the

35 years of to the full of the been in the mood, november 9th. the to you are what you eat. each cell in your body is made from molecules taken from broken down food. and it's also the source of the energy that keeps you alive. but eating is about more than just nutrients. so it is also culture. what we eat has a lot to do with where we come from and the groups we belong to however, stories about food and about who want how and why we like to. we can also spread racist stereotypes.
