save the do go in india, suffice his own to protect the gentle giant and was a small single poll shows how to tackle roots to show which is the 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 double by 2060, but the thing up was on it. none of what they've done is magic.
1:03 am
that's peter's like he's an award winning what the expert he put the single 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 water 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, 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
1:04 am
when and i troops name of the 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, transporting that water, the bridge, the connex, malaysia, and singapore was bones. the result was lack of water in the city, 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 it pulled from its walter quizzes. what the reckoning, catastrophic sanitation and regular floods continued with its fate now with its own hands. seeing a pool begin planning for the long term scene. i took the father to spend almost 3 decades researching what the policy and innovations around the world. and it's
1:05 am
estimated busing, a post pos c number beginning the days that they're going to be watching the band as well as putting the band in energy independence. but they are going to have systems that kind of thing straight. that was in 1965 for 2016. the initial master plan was find to an over the years into a water strategy which they call the full national taps 1st, or the impulse. second, diesel, the nation that local catchment enforced something they call new water. let's dive into it. firstly, single put new. there was plenty of water rights. 2 deals to import water from malaysia in the sixty's. got the taps running again. it's cheapened. millions of fleet is 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,
1:06 am
i made the threats to cut off the supply and argued over its price. the tensions have even left 2 warnings of the military conflict. single pollutants 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 sold it to water. they must single there must make sure that this was use the licensee. 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 to use what the item state singapore already has. for example, this, the ocean this underground facility, for example, is state of the art. normally it treats used water in terms of the drought, it diesel, the nights, the water on top. people use it as a park. today,
1:07 am
5 to southern nation plans provide up to 25 percent of the entire islands water supply. single floor plans to increase its 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 a 3rd of the entire state stuff is, 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 $10000.00 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 atlanta area for rain catchment. catching
1:08 am
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 reuse as much as possible. most countries, they do not invest, not even a fraction of what a single pores invest in the what the authorities build, the 206 kilometers sewage pipe highway, costing $10000000000.00 that guides the city sewage into state of the reclamation and cleaning facilities. okay. single post by some as the 5th, which is country in the world. so it kind of faults especially 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 class 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
1:09 am
treatments go 30, call it new water. it's produced by micro situation with us as most as n u, v. radiation. the some of that water is so high quality, singapore is using it in their ship manufacturing industry, which requires ultra pure water, which has an indication of how good 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, or. 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,
1:10 am
we flush or 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 flushed save assistant back and said with every flush, make saving what the pay reduce water consumption. save up to 10 liters of water per dollar. nationwide campaigns encouraged people to install what the saving fittings and nicely, if you'll install those fittings to get the discount votes as part of the sustainable products. just to what time the district each households, water consumption and detect leaks and pipes, that's all single 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 been educated, their community about their water situation about their water challenges and about the solutions that they've chosen to put as good as thing it was doing. it has the
1:11 am
big advantages of other countries besides being rich and the type of control 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. and normally the amounts of fresh water in many parts of the woods. despite that they've shown a lot as possible. the country music is often seen as a white music genre, even though almost a said if african americans listen to it regularly, but come the office of combat 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, the stage, the 8650 a w as nashville, tennessee,
1:12 am
music city. if you want to make it in the country music business, you have to come here. the julie williams move to the city 5 years ago, hoping like many others for the big break. the full time mama code on case means 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 astro. she carries her mixed race heritage proudly built. but
1:13 am
a record label agent deals with the song is too specific for the majority of country fans 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, 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 going to 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,
1:14 am
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 walks honky tonk if they believe and a new comer here that talent is promoted all the way to a recording. and 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 art is to bring 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 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 as they blown me away and they look like they're marketable and they're 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 stage is fingers have to be marketable. that's how the music industry works. at noon jaundra has grown faster than country music in
1:15 am
the past years. holly g u had given up hope that the industry would change and become more inclusive. so she found in 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, they're still not black artist being played on radio. they're still having 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 mainstream keeps promising. s w s and the heart of 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 could try to recreate that moment. the music of the early days
1:16 am
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 our 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, you need to be aware of who your audience is to 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. i am. the lipstick lounge is
1:17 am
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 123 is that like country music is changing. all that 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, why the, why i have to be so vocal number. and the reason why we have locked 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
1:18 am
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 or the weighing up to $400.00 kilos to go place the related commodities are the only true hub it was among marine mammals imposing but gentle and 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 learning memos also known as c goes funds you aquinos and key will fit

the foundations here, ideally the water is shallow. so the sunlight reaches the sea bed and the sea draws girls quickly got any particular farther. well, we say we have to say 2 guns. we're not just talking about saving mess creature, which is protected under the wildlife. i don't sort of like just about protecting an entire marine ecosystem being able to and conserving the marine ecosystem by restoring. see, for us benefits fishermen to a number of only be mean i'm doing fishermen won't have to cross international marine board as an efficient sort lanchen, warranties in order to protect results in our oceans, we have to protect c gross. i'm sorry, an ecosystem only yet. the but it's a race against type in some parts of the ones such as china, the cfo is close to extinction here and some of the whole thing is that the species can still be saved. and this habit of protected the,
