8:31 pm
welcome to singapore vibrant, multicultural city state right on the equator. densely populated around 6000000 people live on this tiny island. it's an international helpful trade in 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 doubled by 2060, but the thing 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 single pull success down to what he calls the soft pass approach to their problems. so the solid path for water is in contrast to what we have done over the last century and 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
8:32 pm
and the soft path tries to turn that around and say, 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 that coming from the single floor of what the story starts with will work to. that's don't judge 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 a tension. that's when and i troops, namely british australian and indian falls as well. the 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 bridge, the connex, malaysia, and singapore was bones. the result was lack of water in the city,
8:33 pm
a terrible official, the water scar city. the allies lost the battle of singapore. 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 a pull from its watercress. what direction in catastrophic sanitation and regular floods continued with its fate now in its own hands. seeing a pool begin planning for the long time. to see that the ta spend almost 3 decades researching what the policy and innovations around the world. and it's estimated blessing a post past which she never beginning the beginning to be watching the been as well as for the band and 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 what
8:34 pm
a strategy which they called the full national taps. first, what the impulse 2nd, diesel, the nation, that local catchment and forth something they call new water. let's dive into it. firstly, singapore knew there was plenty of water rights. 2 deals to import water from malaysia and the sixty's. got the types running again. it's cheapened, millions of lease is up pumped over the boat every day. but buying have a fuel water from your neighbor, isn't sustainable long term. on the country from the stock malaysia and made threats to cut off the supply and argued over its price. the tensions have even left 2 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 licensee.
8:35 pm
and the objective of this 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, diesel in nancy water on top. people use it as a park today, 5 to southern nation plans provide up to 25 percent of the entire islands water supply. single pro plans to increase this capacity to meet 30 percent of its needs in 2016. by 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 seeing is a master of mixing that out to
8:36 pm
a 3rd of the entire states up as is used for rainwater catchment. and extensive network of rivers, canals and drains channels the what the interest 17 was of was the biggest is maureen 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 war that could potentially be treated and reused by 2060, the government wants to use 90 percent of the land to area for rank catchment pitching rain water is one thing. but what about the water already in circulation? o drainage water is collected and, and treated and reuse as much as possible. most countries they do not invest, not even a fraction of what a single pores invest in the what to authorities. build the 206 kilometers,
8:37 pm
2 inch pipe highway, costing $10000000000.00 that guides the city sewage into state of the reclamation and cleaning facilities. okay? seeing a post by some as the 5th, which is country in the world. so it kind of faults a special 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 series on a growing is basically one big sewer network, but the pride of single pose water strategy is what happens after collecting the water the treatments go 30, call it new water. it's produced by micro situation versus most of the n u, v. radiation some of that water is so high quality, singapore is using it in their chip manufacturing industry, which requires old for pure water, which has an indication of how good
8:38 pm
a quality of that water is. did you know that around the world? half of all waste water is released untreated, and only 11 percent is actually reused in singapore? 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, but 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 toilets industry dumps 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 flush save assistant bag and said with every flush, make saving what the pay reduce water consumption, save up to 10 liters of water per dollar. nationwide campaigns encourage people to install what the saving fittings and nicely,
8:39 pm
if you install those fittings who get the discount vouchers for all the sustainable products. just to what time the district each household's water consumption and detect leaks and pipes, that's all 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 port as good as sing up was doing. it has the big advantages of other countries besides being rich and the tightly 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
8:40 pm
country music is often seen as a white music genre, even though most of the 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, randall elaborate plaza if nashville, tennessee stage, the 8650 a w. as in nashville, tennessee, music city. if you want to make it in the country music business, you have to come here. and the julie williams moved to the city 5 years ago, hoping like many others for the big break. the voltage
8:41 pm
to age. mom's no, don't kiss me meals. 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 but 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 who are white 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,
8:42 pm
you should do this this, this you're like wait, i don't think that's gonna work for me. because i can try so hard and, and, and really work to, to go about it the way that a white artist smell 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 have 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 the say, all this stuff. so we build our artist from the ground up,
8:43 pm
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 comers scott has gathered today are almost all white. but he says that skin color doesn't play a role in scouting. i mean, i just listen to their voice since they blown me away and they look like they're marketable and there the next best thing and there aren't 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 no 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 found 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. where you look at the things that move the needle and
8:44 pm
country music. there's still not black artist being played on radio. you're still having a really hard time getting like prominent spots on festivals. they're still not getting signs and labels that are in nashville. and so our goal is to kind of build our own ecosystem. so we don't have to wait for the slow moving chain. 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 the istation plays more and more songs from black and latino artist. she says, but change takes time. i think every station is, you know,
8:45 pm
you need to be aware of who your audience is through your research and then not be afraid to diversify that audience in cro, 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. 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
8:46 pm
a lot of what people are like 123 is that like country music is changing a lot like comforting to show come wash what we're doing. and you'll see that it is the countries like that, that you love. it's just, you know, break loose, the why i have to be so vocal number. and the reason why we have black and the name of the organization is to ensure that that space is see. i mean, a lot of these artists have had times where they'll get books for show and show up in the state. 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 del 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. of the

waiting up to 400 kilos. to go play, see related to amenities of the only true habits was among marine mammals, imposing but gentle in language that's written with extinction. there's nothing to them loves more than 2 brazen c for us are on 2 meters long. these learning memos also known as c colors, cleanser chinos and key will fit the material in the falls, my area of seminar population. so depending on when i was a kid, i so many do going to see and i found my grandfather and i 30 or 40 years ago, and i used to catch themselves along those days are long gone environment to degrade nation along those lines because destroyed the habitat of to go all over

8:49 pm
i think we make these frames and put them in the water so that the sea grows, throws, do guns have enough to eat. we tried to do this as we count, fee to do things by hand. yeah. but we can feed them in directly to make this work and i live out of it. by helping the store, the cost lined the fisherman know how the regular income again they go out to see in the morning with a more c brush schultz for the friends the foundations here. ideally 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 2 guns. we're not just talking about saving mess creature, which is protected under the wildlife cut on sort of like it is about protecting an entire marine ecosystem being able to and conserving the marine ecosystem by
8:50 pm
restoring. see, for us benefits fishermen to a number of leaving me. united and fishermen won't have to cross international marine board as efficient. so a line can watch. it has to be a lot in order to protect the results in our oceans. we have to protect c gross. i'm already in ecosystem, probably yet, the overall animal father. but it's a race against type in some parts of the wall and 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 protected the, this is new sort of stuff and depends restaurant industry. i'm the organizer and this are right. here's the good cooperation. this elderly lady tells us a bit about herself for things and it says here that my name is kim schon. okay. i
