the story in the end, the end of a tooth cafe in japan, the most is people with dementia, new role, the save, the do go in india suffices onto protects the gentle giant and was his mom's single poll shows how to tackle to sure, which is the welcome to singapore vibrant, multicultural city state right on the equator,
1:31 am
densely populated around 6000000 people live on this tiny island. it's an international, helpful trade and finance. it's clean, safe, more than wealthy green. basically it has a lot of everything you'd want this just that one think cigna pool has no natural, fresh water resources. and the way its economy and population are growing. total water demand could almost double by 2060, but think up was on it. none of what they've done is magic. so that's peter is like, he's an award winning what the expert he puts think of pull success down to what he calls the soft pass approach to their problems. so the salt water is in contrast to what we have done over the last century in more, more than a century. look with a hard path to build hard infrastructure to take more and more watering out of nature to ignore the consequences of our water policies. for nature to build narrow institutions and the soft path tries to turn that around and say,
1:32 am
let's use water efficiently and carefully. let's stop wasting water. let's look at new sources of supply. to understand how single pole can pull this off, you 1st need to understand where they're coming from. the single floor, the story starts with world war 2. that's don't charge the guy for water at the united nations. singaporeans would argue that the story goes back a lot longer. but 1942 is certainly when the issue rep there was attention. that's when and i troops, namely british australian and indian forces with best thing. specialists depend on single island, which at the time was a british colony. dns depended on imported water, which was a bit of a problem when japanese forces blew up the pipes from supporting that water. the rich, the connex, malaysia, and singapore was bones. the result was lack of water in the city, a terrible episode of water scar city. the allies lost the battle of singapore.
1:33 am
but after japan's overall surrender, the island remained in british. hence, it took more than 20 years until it became fully independent. but politically ration didn't precinct it pulled from its walter quizzes. walter reckoning catastrophic sanitation and regular floods continued with its fate now with its own hands. seeing a pool begin planning for the long term. to see that the, to spend almost 3 decades researching what the policy and innovations around the world. and it's estimated busing, a post pos. let's see number beginning the base that they're going to be watching the band as well as putting the band in energy independence. but they are going to have she stance up kinds of things as tracy. that was in 1965 for 2016. the initial master plan was fine tuned over the years into a water strategy, which they call the full national taps. first, what the impulse,
1:34 am
a 2nd, diesel, the nation. 3rd, local catchment. and 4th, something they call new water. let's dive into it. firstly, singapore knew there was plenty of water rights. 2 deals to input water from malaysia in the sixty's. got the types running again. it's cheap and millions of fleet is pumped over the board every day. but buying have a fuel water from your neighbor, isn't sustainable long term. on the country from the stock malaysia, i made threats to cut off the supply and argued over its price. the tensions have even led to warnings of the military conflict. single polluters know that weak spot, so they want to stop importing water by 2061. so it's all more important that the other 3 types become more than a drop in the ocean. water planning is very important because they have so little water, they must single, there must make sure that this waterways use the lice me. and the objective of this
1:35 am
master plan is to make the most out of every single drop of water. these means keeping rivers and drain screen, investing billions, starting to collect to mobile, to cleaning it, and use what the island state singapore already has. for example, this, the ocean this underground facility, for example, is state of the art. normally it treats use water in terms of the drought. it diesel in nancy water on top. people use it as a park today, 5 to send a nation plans provide up to 25 percent of the entire islands water supply. single floor plans to increase this capacity to meet 30 percent of its needs in 2016 at which time warranty was expected to have doubled. but that's no way near self sufficiency. so what's next? bengal, right. a lot of it and cigna is a master of mixing that out to a 3rd of the entire states surfaces use for rainwater kitchen. that's an extensive
1:36 am
network or for those canals and drains channels the what the interest 17 was of was the biggest this marine over us with an area of 10000 texas. it was back fresh water from flowing into the ocean and helps to control frequent floods. so does this underground tank that catches fluffed well, it's an extreme cases when the drain spill over. even this was i could potentially be treated and reused by 2060. the government wants to use 90 percent of the atlanta area for rain catchment. catching rain, water is one thing, but what about the water already in circulation? o drainage water is, is collected and, and, and 3 just and reused as much as possible. most countries they do not invest, not even a fraction of what a single pores invest in the water authority is billed to 206 kilometers, 2 inch pipe highway, costing $10000000000.00 that guides the city sewage into state of the reclamation
1:37 am
and cleaning facilities okay, seeing a post by some as the 5th, which is country in the world. so it kind of faults, especially i would like that. it's also a lot easier to push through such projects when you have to sort of control democracy, run by the same party that single plants had since independence in 1965. anyway, the entire cities underground is basically one big sewage network. but the pride of single pool is water strategy is what happens after collecting the water. the treatment. you'll 30 call it new water. it's produced by microphone ration with us as most as into view radiation. the some of that water is so high quality, singapore is using it in their chip manufacturing industry, which requires all for pure water, which has an indication of how good a quality of that water is. did you know that around the world?
1:38 am
half of all waste water is released untreated, and only 11 percent is actually reused in single pool. about 30 percent of the entire drinkable and non drinkable demand can be met by recycling use water. and they want to increase that to 55 percent by 2060. most of it is used by industry. only a fraction of it is mixed into the drinking water supply. because we also squeamish it's controversial because we're taking waste water, which you know, we goes down our drains, we flush it down our toilet thing, just redone. so waste water. and we typically think of that as of a liability is something to get rid of. so how do we get people on board using the flushed save assistant back and said with every flushed, make, saving what the pay produced will to consumption, save up to 10 liters of water per dollar. nationwide campaigns encourage people to install what the saving fittings and nicely, if you install those fittings to get the discount votes as part of the sustainable product. just to what time the district each household's water consumption and
1:39 am
detect leaks and pipes, that's all the single pull comes down to an incredible 5 percent. what are those from leaks? which is 1st class globally, the average is estimated to be 30 percent. what they've done incredibly well in my opinion, is on the side of water education. they've educated their community about their water situation about their water challenges and about the solutions that they've chosen to put as good as sing up was doing. it has the big advantages of other countries besides being rich and the type of the controlled society. the city only has a tiny agricultural sector and can focus almost entirely on oven and industrial waste water. so they have one problem less as food production fluids and consumes enormous amounts of fresh water in many parts of the woods. despite that, they've shown a lot as possible. the
1:40 am
country music is often seen as a white music genre, even though almost a surge of african americans listened to it regularly. but country office of color receive less than 2 percent of ad time. so is the country music industry, racist. this is bill cody, from the grand elaborate plaza, it's nashville, tennessee stage, the 8658, w. as in nashville, tennessee, music city. if you want to make it in the country, music business, you have to come here. the julie williams moved to the city 5 years ago, hoping like many others for the big break. the bolts i did go, i knew i of the total in case news meals to
1:41 am
school. i grew up listening to country music. my mom played country music in the car on the way to school. i always loved the story telling not all said, oh no, she tells her own stories in her songs like this one about her after. oh, she carries her mixed race heritage proudly. but a record label agent deals with the song is too specific for the majority of country friends or whites to oh, okay, i know southern julie can't seem to get a foot in the door neither with record labels nor on radio stations. 96 percent of all country songs or by white artists. it's easy to feel discouraged and to feel like this the steps that people have taken before you to say, hey,
1:42 am
you should do this this, this you're like wait, i don't think that's gonna work for me. cuz i can try so hard and, and, and really work to, to go about it the way that white artist, mail artist go about it. and just, i'm not gonna find any success in downtown nashville at noon. you can already hear live music playing everywhere with rock and country alternating randomly. country music fans have always been predominantly white, is that my black artist has few opportunities in this 1000000000 dollar business. scott collier is always on the lookout for new talent every week. he books, 400 shows, 4 kid rocks, honky tonk if they believe, and a newcomer here that talent is promoted all the way to a recording. we teach them how to address. we teach them how to saying we teach about what to say. all this stuff. so we build our artist from the ground up, you know, because most of these kids, you know, so most of these kids have come in to town. they have no clue. the talent of new
1:43 am
comers scott has gathered today are almost all white. but he says that skin color doesn't play a role in scouting. mean i just listen to their voice as they blown me away and they look like they're marketable. and there the next best thing in their ard work, or if they listen to direction and all that stuff, we have no problem, put them on stages. fingers have to be marketable. that's how the music industry works. and know john wright has grown faster than country music in the past years. holly g had given up hope that the industry would change and become more inclusive . so she founded an organization that promotes black artists in the country. music industry. she finds, have been used for them to perform at ad helps make them visible. when you look at the things that move the needle and country music, there's still not black artist being played on radio. they're still having
1:44 am
a really hard time getting like prominent spots on festivals. they're still not getting science and labels that are in nashville. and so are goal is to kind of build our own ecosystem. so we don't have to wait for this slow moving change that the main stream keeps promising. s w s, and the heart of the country music still beat strong and radio stations like this one. bill cody is something of a radio legend. if anyone can explain why country is still considered white music by many, it's him that we would try to recreate that moment. the music of the early days was the, the farm families, those farm families far primarily white. now there were lots of black folks working on those family farms and they had their own music. that's where the blues came from. and ultimately are in be his station plays more and more songs from black and latino artist he says, but change takes time. so i think every station is you know,
1:45 am
that you need to be aware of who your audience is to your research, and then not be afraid to diversify that audience in crow, that audience. we have this bill if you would consider inviting julie to his show. he says his producers will look into it, but so far they haven't been in touch with julie. yes. i am. the lipstick lounge is a bar in east nashville. julie and holly liked to come here to listen to live music . they look for their nations also in their own music, but julie would love to become mainstream listen to by the majority of country fans playing music and talking about love and life, and family and, and not human ness that we all have. and no i, i think that that a lot of what people are like, 0123 is that like country music is changing. all that like come to the show. come
1:46 am
wash what we're doing and you'll see that it is the countries like that that you love. it's just, you know, more increase. the reason why i have to be so vocal number is some of the reason why we have black in the name of the organization is to ensure that that space is safe. i mean, a lot of these artists have had times where they'll get books for show and show up, and they, it's only realized once they get there, that they're black. and then it's uncomfortable. the julie has just released for a 2nd, download them on her own. and is relying on streaming platforms, but she still dreams of a record deal. and of one day playing on the big stages of nashville. the, the
1:47 am
waiting up to $400.00 kilos to go play see related to amenities of the only true hub it was among marine mammals. imposing but gentle in language that's written with extinction. there's nothing to do them love mod, done to praise on see for us or on to me does long these marine mammals also known as c goes, funds you chinos and key will fit the but you in the balls my area of seminar, of the population. so dwindling and the when i was a kid i so many do going to see it. i found my grandfather and i 30 or 40 years ago . then i used to catch themselves on those days, are long gone environment to degrade nation along those lines because destroyed the habitat of to go all over the world with vast amounts of sea for us. and that it
1:48 am
was built in recent years, including anthem and no body via the origin is the founder of old car. and, and you the aims to restore these equal systems over the place a shipment. before we start to the conservation work, we went to fisherman and local villages and told them that we were going to grow salt brush. but anything else why we needed to? it's everywhere in the sea, they set and everything on the i told them the in some areas degraded. so we want to manage the role again at that point, but it was skeptical and said it wouldn't work. no, we can at least try, i replied. and i'm one of the, one of them. the diverse collect, see gross from meadows that are still intact. then the speeds are attached to frames made by fishermen out of band bowl and ropes. these we will then be positioned on the sea bed of an effective an in devices. and i
1:49 am
think we make these frames and put them in the water so that the sea grows, throws out a, do guns have enough to eat. we tried to do this, we con, fee to do things by hand. yeah. but we can feed them in direct and each one of this work and i live out of it by helping restore the cost lined. the fisherman know how the regular income again they go out to see in the morning with more c brochures for the friends. the foundations here are ideal. the water is shallow. so the sunlight reaches the sea bed, and the sea draws grows quickly. any possible way by the well being today, we have to say to going, so we're not just talking about saving mess creature, which is protected under the wildlife cut on sort of like just about protecting an entire marine ecosystem being able to and conserving the marine ecosystem by restoring, see, for us benefit fishermen to a number of only be mean i'm doing fishermen won't have to cross international
1:50 am
marine board as an efficient sort lanchen, warranties in order to protect facilities in our oceans. we have to protect c gross . i'm sorry, an ecosystem, probably yet the but it's a race against time. in some parts of the ones such as china, the cfo is close to extinction here and some of the whole f as the species can still be saved. and it's have it as protected. the, this is new sort of stuff and depends restaurant industry. i'm the organizer miss her, right. here's the good cooperation. this elderly lady tells us a bit about herself for being so it says here that my name is kim chan. ok. i like

1:52 am
of humor, ben, it's all no problem. john suddenly finds her annoying walker quite useful. but which meal was meant for which cast? oh, well, let the customers figure it out themselves. the waitress is probably forget their job and what they have to do right away. a lot of think what it is, but they might remember that guess smiles in the long term. chun certainly brings a smile to everyone's face. even her family, her son in law and her daughter, they ordered drinks, but they don't make it easy for her. and they don't want to mix up the cafe olay. do you understand? give a plus to coffee certain and don't forget the game. john is so absorbed by her work that she forgets for walker.
