the on the everyday things around us, when did they come from when, why did they have all the time? we can just search the day and take them out where i mean, that's the how do you motivate others to get involved in climate action if it's well making things fun. come be a good way to start. maybe with a game of football or some music, of whether collecting waste or repairing old household items. we can all do audits . welcome to a new edition of eco africa. i'm personal items, illegals, nigeria, great to have you with us. and here's what's coming up. climate action,

football in zimbabwe. tenant waste into energy and gone up at raw, painful change. even the 1st of all though, we had to set a goal like many countries here in africa. so the has a big problem with pollution for road traffic, which is where the call originally express trade comm. same venue rule link, transport the road 115000 passengers every day. it's creek on some vineyards, and it's also have a, a positive effect on quality in the area. the demand is in almost every day about 80000 people have passed through the gates of the clean expect regional. no, not test. the prize of sin a go through

a system since 2021 between has been running ranking the need between the car and the to new science and administrative have such a 6 can know me says a wait, petty and banga is a regular procedure. the government official used to spend over 2 hours a day sex and something. now he's commute is just for 2 minutes and he's doing something good for the environment which he values high. as opposed to other covered with it. i think the test will reduce pollution. i'm not saying you clean any related to complete cleaning, but we have already the seeing fuel cards on the road. one. yeah, i do is i'm in suffolk is small. so now when you look at the highways and start routes, because people are using the test and leaving their cars behind, i think it's making a real impact on the environment. sauzie's the positive island infected lucy, do feel a lot of money. the tab is a flex you projects designed to cut synagogues, c o 2 emissions by around 30 percent by 2030. the country currently produces about

$12000000.00 tons of greenhouse gases each year. and nearly all of its transports, we need to the emissions come from roads. we also have to do, we looked at the number of messages using the tab and calculated the c o 2 emissions via saving sofa. we've transported over $55000000.00 plus inches. if you assume this person just took the test instead of a count or bus, we've saved more than 850000 tons of c o 2 and the economy. and this is, the numbers are rising from $70000.00 a day in the last year to almost 5 times that amount to d, depending on the class and destination tickets costs between a $0.02 and around 4 or the back of the uh, the way to get in today when i go to the car to run errands, i prefer taking the test because i need to be fast. i'm really happy going by train . so i did it that. i mean the up that i thought i'd dig out the default. i used to

take many buses or buses where everyone's jostling, they've never any space. it's really difficult to compared to the test design. again, i did not mind, but i bought a pretty much that i becca. i committed so i'm cutting myself to the car. if i want to get that quickly, i take the test to avoid the traffic jams. it's quite comfortable, cooler, and does less felicia ratio. why? that's where the police, you know, just the air that's clean up. the tub is also committed to sustainable decision to waste management at each setting station. the whole all system do set up a waste floating system with all the sites in the stations maintenance areas. and on the trains of the stations, we have waste collectors and special tons find bins. so we can only tell what's inside of this bins are divided into 2 compartments. for recyclable waste and non

recyclable, left on the left. but full wrist has also brought some new challenges in some areas and success. so she's being dumped on really appropriate to come boxes. the really over i to are organizing came out events and running campaigns to raise public a when you're supposed to be that's your own love. this a when is contains also focused on safety since we deal with a lot of trespassing on the trucks. and that is the issue of sending stations because people are throwing the waste onto a range of properties. we also tackling illegal dumping within our premises along the waste management and sustainable ma, chauncey, the tanner has proven to be a major success by means 2025. the line will extend to the international and apple the to isn't just transporting passages. it's bringing a big ambition into real when it comes to looking

after all, planet, sometimes you just have to roll up your sleeves and get to it. best of all, you know, group, i'm next report shows that supplement efforts work best for when you pull on your football booth 1st, which is what on next report from zimbabwe is all about the hello. everyone here is not just on the 2nd page. this in consent of titan's football club, also trains its young members and environmental awareness. some concerns, is it local n g a that teaches kids about issues like climate change and the importance of conservation, giving them the skills to make a difference and the wells around them is do we meet? we start off by discussing things side of mental issues. like the sick testing side,

affecting the environment and the possible solution or suggestions or anything that we can do to keep those fig tests. then we proceed to us supporting activities, helping them to fully understand the, the inside of mean. and it's not just these kids who have benefits in the so good environment program runs across 20 schools in and around to rory with topics towards ranging from recycling to this rest of extinction facing some animal species. since the project began in 2012, moving 500 young people have taken part, their learning practical skills. like how renewable energy through setting up how it comes can keep gotten like this green and thriving, even in times of drought. for how planting fruit trees can reduce greenhouse gases

in the atmosphere. plus those same trees make a great habitat of various wildlife intermountain the board. what was it just a couple of guns of water when we play soccer. as soon as we get to the field trip, so we 1st pick up all the plastic melissa on the ground. it's the same piece that you've seen of this is where we're encouraged to collect. so the waste environments, this was where like if and because we do this every day before playing soca much, i've started taking a look good habits away with me to keep my environmental clean every way this weekend to much what i'm doing with my friends of the yeah, now freq, uh, it is very normal to repair, broken, household and electric goods, what's in euro. the tendency in percent decades has been to just talk things out. that creates a lot of waste. now there are efforts to encourage more people to go down the repair routes, including some financial incentives we had to germany. we

have so much stuff in europe and create more e waste per capita than any other region on up. once the problem is when this stuff breaks, i have no idea what to do about it. for the cases like bowling want to get one step ahead. as part of it sustainability initiatives, belinda is working to fix the big gap in the circular economy and convince americans to be a pull for the repair of a product. bullying we give up to $200.00 euros per year to people who repair that own broken household items. and the you hopes that such schemes with a drastically reduced waste produce 2. i mean, ultimately the info start to do that like this nice of refurbished and factory is saying that the the big question is though, the schemes like this to steve us reading goods or do they actually do something to tackle so much waste nowadays it's getting more more complicated to get things done

. that's been the rapacity, a member of germany's social democratic body who's working to push to policy change . he's talking about how the complexity of gadgets has gone up. remember when you could just take the battery out of it or phone into the k switch. we also know mix resources more with electronics. now when i shoes, for example, and we need so much more raw materials that are growing energy needs. when it breaks down how the e u is pushing back hardware there. so some coffee machine producers may need a special key to open it in order to repair. in this case, i have enough available, i would expect, is not allowed anymore contractual. if you go with your phone to somebody else to repair it, you lose your contractual guarantee, not allowed anymore. and the last thing that to introduce is to be a request from the member states to introduce support measures to austria from a couple of states in germany. have now introduced a repair bonus where you can get part of the repair paid for a research group. calculated savings from the scheme and the state of tutoring in

from 2021 to 2020. and found that more than 13000 subsidize, profess avoided almost 400 tons of electronic waves and almost 3000 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent molded. i'm told of use a said they would not have you, but the product is not for the cash back scheme. so many regions, including berlin, a, giving it a go to the state here was no subsidized. 50 percent of the bank costs for a long list of household items. when he was send your bills in. and this gap, the $200.00 us, per you. this is all thought of when you direct to the e will prove to see that each member said was item to law by 2026. it'll live just companies to increase the minimum warranty period and lower the cost of spec box. we have this examples that a part of a dishwasher, for example, simple plastic part and the dishwasher. if you use 3 d printing, it would cost you $0.50. if you purchase it from the producer, you have to pay $200.00 yours. nobody can explain this. this is ridiculous. that's what we include, of who the price has to be reasonable. consumers can request the check off,

the price is from judges can single repack to face. but the municipality offers a free repack, a face that people can get help in order to get the product sting repair. so to prompting tire repair. and by that we get a whole boost for the repass. let's check it out. belinda listed, so they just said rebecca fees online. i'm adding to one that's set up inside of 2nd hand malls run by the cities waste management authority. the authority collects waste and preserve specials things that they think deserve a longer life than rivera didn't want to be friends. because in trubenstein, his, i like his group, believes in the messaging over the individual. this is broken and i'd like to repair it. as it does as well. so i'd say this main robot pot here might definitely shouldn't be used anymore. i don't know why that's through. i've been in business

all. we'll have to get a new rubber part. when we turn know when i kind of applied for the bonus yet, but when i come back with my new talk next month, i would i wonder the what happens in places, but people lack access to places or schemes like this. does your plan always make sense? one study compare the price of buying new wasn't understanding, washing machines and vacuum cleaners for such expensive products. it found that in every instance, it was significantly cheaper to repair over replace until the very end of life. at which point, the blue switch, a group of european universities, found that overall, why is recycling has stolen the glory route? that is the most important below of dyslexia, that economy, you could save several times, the energy required by repair in household items rather than recycling and which would include breaking down to devise, separating a spots, changing the form and sending each back into a stream of circulation so reset infrastructure really needs to catch up. and to do

that at scale, we need big players. we've driven across the border to portland to visit one of the biggest factors in europe. the buyers and refurbish is all things re by says the country receive a 1500 packages a week to the post electronics books. i pads, game consoles and watches the book about the here they took them for quantity and send them back for a longer warranty period than the original. as part of that policy to make things last longer. without the price being low, gotten to believe that model $1.00 for which aligns with buttons repair bonus idea which he sees of the next big market over the past is we also expended into the areas we pay off. and so we have our own repair facility, and we do display changes, battery changes and other repass,

and then obviously has an additional impact on saving you waste. and that's an additional area where we see quite some potential. so we are going to see a lot more of this. i'm clicking on the consent. it was like the one in berlin which have proved to work. and some member states really do it over a large enough part of the population. and when industry truly catches up those huge mountains of waste, certainly make you think we have a good number of them. the garbage is so bad for the soul, walter, and as well as for roast people and gone the efforts to come back. the growing truss problem of led to the development of a high breed wished to edit your plans so far. the pilot project is very promising . this weight salting facility is still something of a novelty in gun. but the plants here does even more. some waste is used to produce

electricity and complex facilities like this come out to be able to help us and be able to able to collect uh weighs and make good use of the widths in a way you realize that one of them has to do with drop creations, so people want people in the community who will not be engaged in the collection of the ways which will actually be sent to the community to actually be utilize the facility is having a crucial purpose gun as waste problem is huge. $14000.00 tons of garbage generated every day and only 10 percent of that is collected. it's a problem that's result in greenhouse gas emissions. the spread of disease and even contributes to flooding. and in fact, waste is a valuable resource. once it's processed. someone and rhetoric is a salma. he and his son now use compost, made a forgotten request on the me field. a movie brought out by me using the

company before i started using my call. most of my crops about my yield was very last year. i know, but assuming your significant by the office did a lot of mates this year. last year i had about 10 bags, but this year it's increased to 20 bags. yeah, yeah. so the accomplice has been helpful to me. i'm on a content intent intent on the list is made in the hybrid waste energy plants near the city of kumasi, where waste is also used to produce electricity from bio gum. the solar power plants produces 400 kilowatt in after supplies 500 household. the 1st of its kind in gun it costs 5800000 euros and was mostly funded by the german government. the plant was also developed with the help of government know how there's no shortage of waste that can be used. it's brought in from the town over can copa so in a day because i spent phones,

and then at the end of the day we expected to obtain about 50 cubic meters of gas. the plants doesn't handle metal, but plastic waste gets shredded and sent elsewhere for cycling. the organic waste is used to put you cycle guess the help of material in this react to the yellow building behind it by august is converted into electricity, but a generate to the plants will eventually employ a team of 50 people. for now, 20 people walk here, including local ex, puts in waste richmond to getting further training and vital gust technology from the gentleman partners. for the time being the energy produced here isn't being fed into the mass. you've read the amount of power produced by the plant isn't to yet enough for the national transmission system coming well, yeah. okay, that's good enough to production of an easy for me to bargain aspects. so how much more the energy produced from the bag spits us compared to this tool that we have

currently on the site. so that'd be kind of when it had to degrees because of the width in the projects. so the fact that we have with that is from the bad guys us, but that is being converted to the meeting. and so this office office is what i'm looking for. that's we have more energy that will be put used in the coming months . food. that's a company going to touch the grid. until this happens, the electricity produced is used in the waste energy plant itself. and the plant makes via composts from organic waste, in a closely monitored process that's take such as these via consult has have some exciting one and with from, well, eco friendly adult. the need for chemicals for tonight is, is, and he even saves money as, as why not, because enough, it's a, you know, this organic compos, i'll have to spend a lot of money to buy other types of fertilizers. and that's very expensive. if i was indeed knew what the bag costs, the equivalent of it was always

a 30 year old. so using the organic compost has helped reduce my cost of production . most nadia of little waste to energy plant near kumasi is a pilots project. if all goes well again and government plans to finance 10 more across the country. well, it's amazing when you can make something useful also something that has been discarded. what 1st of course, the waste has to be collected in the democratic republic of congo, a wide spread available was the issue, lead one young woman vet to push for change. our aim is to help the environment and at the same time improve the lives of those around.

at this events, the music has a clear message. environmental aim is to meet young people understand that through music, we can lead a real revolution and shape the vision of our environments and the climate crisis. streets paved with rubbish, clubs of books, it every day. nice inc. in chester. it's time to turn around says kids see a point me in my past says there's 2 of them is terrible. it so much rubbish is collected in such as small street. there's a huge lack of awareness about waste management that's done every with the roads on the spins down. they fix this for formula. so somebody could see it on the past who heads up finding you an association working to protect those, the environment and children's wrong today. the 20 year old had a team of collecting rubbish with street children from the district. oh wow. now

it's time to do some planted was because we want to shift people's perception of the environment and lead them to understand that we can all take action. however small, with a sense of responsibility, applause is like a child. we want to see a grow, we want to see it in the phone. it gets here autumn, up in here in the dark capital, she was aware of the issue of pollution from an early age. when she was 12, she joined us. the young people to this program and began writing about the water pollution on children's rights. in 2021 could see i became a human self use and back to the for the environment. since then, she has continued raising awareness among authorities and the general population about children's wrong, about access the drinking water in lentils protection. she takes us to the district where she grew up. it was here that she 1st noticed the damage

in impact of trash on the area. i know the call goes eva. well, i guess, well my commitment stems from the fact that i decided not to accept the situation my country was in, but to see is a problem. and that's the biggest challenge. how do i and all of us manage to encourage communities, individuals, young people to get involved and say, don't forget to ask for this stuff. what's going? i enjoyed most about my work is passing on new knowledge and a new vision of the time. at issue that i get to commit to say that the capital of the democratic republic of google, kinshasa has been growing rapidly for decades. it is that the largest city in africa after cairo and me so it's population of around $15.00 to $17000000.00 producers around $10000.00 tons of waste every day. a vast amount, especially in the city without a centralized waste collection system. during the rainy season,

can shesta is regularly transformed into a river on rubbish tipsy and her team wants to encourage people to reduce waste. they don't just focus on children with everyone in the community. in the cities must, in that district, they meet with the child, the rock group, as disposable qual, laptop. she found the truth that there is in him. can see it has found an online public isn't easy, but we set to a sales that with time, they'll understand them. they look down. it's a question of time and learning how to get the message across. the more present way all the mo, mo, make them understand what our vision is. and i think the deal is what people say, the music during music, we can lead

a real revolution and then we can impact the vision of our environment. the vision of the climate crisis, and that's something that's going to happen over time. little by little. it's about changing mentalities about understanding that it's fine to wrap, but it's better to rep for the real message. voice by his determination and supported by friends and i clicked through them wrap it gets the continues to sow the seeds of change and construct this little by little choose building hope for cleaners and the community committed to tackling the challenges of climate change. that's all for today would love to hear what you think about the show. so please reach out to us of eco, a. d, w dot com. you can also find more inspiring stories by searching for eco africa online. thanks for watching. so now it's good bye for me, chris, a lamps and illegals. nigeria. see you next on
