8:02 pm
the, the mountains of a foaming river for the water is far too much. hello and welcome. i am so they've got the body and you all watching you going. yeah. and i am reading them off the lease on this is that you see it on me. when you say, if i take them off for my eyes on the property, my eyes, i think that's all for the equity. 0 right? the pollution of 4 types of draw stability is a huge problem. but what is the solution to this? does is required individual f, thoughts, community action or state. and so let's take a look at some of the possibilities, challenges and opportunities. and now let's move indoors so i can say this muscle. another problem that almost all of us actively form review is waste. india doesn't
8:03 pm
segregate much if it's waste and then the other one has a huge manmade mountains of garbage and the side. the overflowing dumpsters is in trash. i personally try segregating waste at my home, but by the time between each the city dumpster it was all back together. and this is the case with most areas indians here. but sometimes it is all citizens who find solutions not the place. sort of difficult snapshot monica connect without the wants to capture every last detail. cheese offering the ultimate about and google ground photographing in because dumps is a health hazard for everybody who stays here for the low income communities would stay on this side of the road and for the better off people of the city who live on the side of the road the stump is located directly on one of google drums trunk roads. the city is part of the greater denny area and is one of india's major
8:04 pm
financial and technology hubs. monica go out, the finds its existence completely unacceptable. she regularly gets in touch with the city, apologies, and bosses on photos and information. she hopes that the legal side we'd find the bbq had. the desire for citizens is that we want a livable city, something which is 3 or waste. it has cleanest and the whole, so environmentally friendly supporting system which allows people to live a healthy life. the citizen supervisory committee was set up in 2018. monica is one of its members. they come from various areas of civil society, our environmental experts or former government employees. their team used to show where the cities waste management system is still not working. and where detection
8:05 pm
is needed. we strongly put forward association photo monitoring mechanism, which could at least let's see what was being done more than 2000000 people even go to them and yet 85 percent. if it's waste is not salted and recycled properly, the results overflowing municipal landfills. and in the dumps, the biggest problem is post by bulk, waste generators, such as housing estates, companies, schools, or even political parties. anywhere where to please to 100 kilograms of waste is produced every day most and go from the center for science and environment saves the vast majority of them simply don't comply with the law, the legal mandated for them as original data that i see for basic mandates the 1st one is the have to segregate, then was list the source. the 2nd one is they have managed to the organic list
8:06 pm
within their promises as far as possible, which we call institute organically. this management and hardly they have to handle the rest of the list that let's do a list of the authorized risk collector. yeah. oh, get increased is being separated from normal waste and then properly recycled. this blonde to sponsor for housing estate. both ways generate those. don't have to be a problem citizen supervisory committee members regularly visit facilities like this one to monitor how well they're working. residents here have to do their be to of course, garbage collectors can then pick up the separated waste and take it to the appropriate dispose of points to help refine the system. the citizen supervisor, the committee members are in close contact with the housing society. but this
8:07 pm
example is to linux option here, providing efficient lots, gain weight separation presents a huge challenge to the policies. the committees book is therefore, all the more appreciated programs in metropolitan city. so it was number also around the, the 1600000 visitors produce funding funding. so to tackle that, we need a good mechanism and also we need the public school also. so segregation, these, the major issue which we think there to, which is a major hurdle for us. so do i build a time? we do not have a complete segregation x or so the reason we cannot the go for the complete the processing to the ministry of housing and the phase estimates that up to 40 percent of wasting indian cities comes from bunk waste generator is while a few housing societies are already separating waste all those audit square one.
8:08 pm
between 20222023. the center for science and environment developed a portal for the registration of bulk waste generators in google chrome. that i said to be around $3000.00 of them. but only $200.00 separate their waste and dispose of it properly. environmental dispute, the a who helps develop the portal. yeah, idea is to map the be the abilities completely. give them a unique identity hack up to their full details and also on a weekly and monthly basis. understand the segregation and for assessing level, making them accountable for the last big that is being generated. to finally find and recalled and waste produces and set up a professional refuse disposal system everywhere. nothing would please monica,
8:09 pm
come not go out to. she hopes the expansion of illegals dumps can be stopped and the sites quickly cared for this to a long way to go before the metropolis of google, chrome can get its garbage problem under control. what do you know about the sofa? maybe not much, much, not next story. you wait quick clean on that. this chemical element is actually present every wish. it can be useful, but this can also mean hum, sofa pollution is yet another outcome of burning fossil fuels. it can contribute to evolution and acid chains. so how do we deal with something that's only present that's find out of this? i said like this blue fire and these couple rings all exist because of one element sofa. the yellow substance can be both completely homeless, unexpectedly poisonous. it's found in our bodies of food and also in volcanoes. if
8:10 pm
you've ever smelled a rotten egg or a fox, the culprit was sofa, but unfortunately heating it up. also, it makes a highly toxic gas. it's also responsible for acid rain. it contributes to millions of debts every year. extracting and funding fossil fuels means we're spewing it into the atmosphere. the story a sofa is both the lumen crisis and an environmental success. so far is one of the more abundant elements in the universe. you can find it in the oceans, the crust, and the talks they've got must be a venus. it's also the 3rd most common mineral in our bodies. they contain around a 150 grams of sofa, and it's sort of pill form. it's both tasteless and odorless. compounds of it are found in broccoli, cauliflower, eggs, and onions. sofa is actually responsible for the strong smell that garlic makes
8:11 pm
when it's crushed. and the sofa compound gives broccoli and color flowed the distinctive tastes. and if you find yourself with a particularly smelly onion, that's because of sofa to is also found in water from wells or springs. another place you'll find the sofa is in the sky a little bit so, so for doc setup may have missed here. can serve as what we call cloud condensation nuclei, essentially little platforms for clouds to build around. the kaos fonda is a climate scientist and reset you clouds that can be more reflective and inbound smartlight back to space. so sofa actually slows down global warming. but sofa also has a docs side. is one of the most reactive elements on the periodic table. so it changes form easily when in contact with other elements. it's also super flammable. the sofa coaching is what keeps matches spinning long enough to light a candle. burning sofa can look like a health scape,
8:12 pm
like this indonesian volcano. ready ready mighty a much creates a small quantity of a sofa gas, and this much is a mini version of the sofa pollution problem. those gases fall into by the sofa molecules with other elements, a toxic, one of them is hydrogen sulfide salt vote with 2 hydrogen atoms. it's found naturally in wetlands swamps and hot springs, another nicety, salt, the gases, sulfur dioxide, something we've been, how many ourselves with on a large scale for a very long time. so software relation is meant liquids by bidding fossil fuels, edwin's function, jada researches, chemical pollution in the environment, and also industry. if you'd be such as refining petroleum and snow to mid thoughts, fossil fuels naturally contains sofa there. extraction leads to some of the sulfur escaping and forming those gases. toxic gas is also released when fossil fuel was
8:13 pm
a band. another source of self of pollution is from metal production. some metal oles contain sofa purifying. the metal can therefore release sofa into the atmosphere. fossil fuel use took off around the 1950s before all this information was available. but in the 1970s, people started noticing that the rain was more acidic than it used to be. too much cell for in clouds can react with other elements to form. so pure across it and i said, right, oceans, lakes and rivers become more acidic, hunting, aquatic life. it also affects the ph of soils. we know plants, the creator use since it think september jane ph regarding all ph. he's also going to affects how the plans i want to add, so the nutrients that they need to grow. but it doesn't need to rain down on us to have devastating health effects. if you light a match a couple times or if you like, sitting around a campfire, um, you know,
8:14 pm
they are placing it for you. there's a good for you, but if you're not doing that all day every day, it's not going to be that bad for your health. whereas, you know, if you're living in beijing and your air looks like a piece, oops, that's where it really starts creating various severe medical problems. and a lot of thought self of pollution is caused by burning coal. it's responsible for most of the pollution than any volcanic eruption when found in power plants, the sofa can be removed from the emissions by devices cold struthers. but in sufficient money or infrastructure, that means that often doesn't happen. worldwide, china has been the largest emitter of sulfur in recent decades due to its heavy reliance on call. the resulting air pollution is responsible for over a 1000000 deaths per year. china has recently taken major steps to reduce sol for emissions in other countries. the amount of coal being button is actually going up
8:15 pm
. when you electrify you wrote it, they need to be some energy source in what is the weak image source that is that it . so that's called sulfur pollution from coal contributed to the near constant london fog of the 19th century. people died from us, more on bronchitis which still playing those living near oil refineries and coal plants today. and sofa particles also formed pm 2.5 fine particles that are significant part of global air pollution. a. but it is an old bad news in recent years that has been a very big asset to stop us, a drain on sofa gases. much of the sofa is removed from oil and gas during the refunding process before it's sold to consumers. the extracted sofa is tended to pesticides fertilizers on. so if you're accosted as a result of symmetric sofa gases have decreased significantly and regulations getting 20 to 2020. so the 1st restrictions on shipping fuel
8:16 pm
but in now the last 8 or 3, there's been more studies about the health impacts and burning the steel in ports with a couple studies suggesting that somewhere in the range of 20 to 60000 people globally, you may die prematurely you do to exposure to suffer docs, i pollution from shipping. removing solver from fuels has cause the dropping world wind pollution, but the still more self in the atmosphere than that should be. so while regulations are important, shift away from fossil fuels is the only thing that will tackle toxic sulfur gases for good very few things in the can match the beauty of watching the sunset at the delelake industries. but now the natural beauty of the sleek and the livelihoods of those who call it at home are both on the tech and yet again, but you should is to blame lucian and vis disposal issues. house clean the
8:17 pm
ecosystem of the slick. and now scientists, activists and residents have come together to make the leak beto to restore it and to protect it. but will it be enough? chicata, is that a popular photo motive? front door to somebody on the small water cab scotty vacation, noticed that accommodations in the house votes, which have been one on the banks here since british colonial. go back then. it was folded in to build housing belonged to what the british left. but the house voted state right now, things that are been comma on dudley. it's off season and missouri that much show up. then take a much needed read the for generations. he and his family have lived off to doesn't feel they can buy that. the honey, i mean nick, me, why? hey, i was born on this lead, that'd be well but and all the people here depend on it is to make a living. take a 1970 for the 90 need to go with people. use the walk on here for drinking and
8:18 pm
cooking low, but i never since and 1991 a steady rise in human negative but has let doing created pollution when you like, a liquid leak is located in the special lead value at an altitude a foot on 1500 meters between the double bond mountains and the mega d. i've seen that that's more than 44000000 liters of waste water flow out of the city into the surrounding area every day. there are also around 50000 people living around the lake itself, who dispose of their based on the shore. ankara and her father have come here for a vacation from ireland. disappointed with the state of the lake. i think there's always this conversation with a likes that it's going to be nice and blue, but i think very different because they're living on it. and obviously you can see there's a lot of rubbish and a lot of plastics that are still just throwing in
8:19 pm
a 65 year old kilometer sooner. has long had enough of the situations every 20 days or so. he and other residents of his village set about collecting the garbage left behind by both local people and tourist. it is, but he knows that more needs to be done. the influx of waste water into the lake has to stop, he says. and so for several years now, he has also been working to develop a local sewage system. you use the tenure drainage system you are looking at to you was inspired by one. be billed print to yours, or what would you call them? with house family dug trenches for 21 houses you belong with and the drainage flows down to a deep bit. we may want to got tons of trust you. first, when i took the initiative to stop the sewage run off in my own home,
8:20 pm
using what i knew and on my own volition bottle for them, or when the local administration saw what i had done, it decided to build the green system. you'll see here now connecting the whole area, do it. yes, that is still some work left to do so, but it will be finished. so what do you want to print from there? what advantage network runs right around the area to actually mon, subbing the entire neighborhood, which is home to around 120 families. see, give us a quote of 6 of the following on from the success in his own village. while i'm a student now wants to build a sewage network in other villages too. many of his neighbors grow their own fort, lending money to the sale of cabbage lea, look at us and load us roots. they're all interested in having a clean or leak. and so they get together regularly to look at it. this is just too big, just in addition to those dollars is nation, is another big problem. i'm going to take months of that. we tried to tackle it ourselves using traditional methods like dredging to knowledge and removing the sit
8:21 pm
out said all of us, and then using it as for the laser, enough fetus to shauna bush on his end. and so working together to see if the late of the, if anything happens to a, just want to wait on, you will lose everything. i'll go to. yep. yeah. so other residents, including families, load them in the other league, but those belonging to each community, right? we'll need to get on board and worked with that all because the, i'm sure it's true or what community on a few years ago, the government decided it had to a radical quick solution to the problem. is it reset it or on the 10000 of the lead specimens, moving them to the other side of scene of the but they have no vehicle ending their living there. so they come here during the day to own money. the government has undertaken other measures to it has invested it on $30000000.00 in judges and fielding sewage systems in order to prevent the untreated info of the seas. always insult from the lakes house boats and it has
8:22 pm
installed sewage treatment plans on the shores of the league, but profess someone's wood and much of a button this that the from university says such solutions don't go far enough. it has been a system which has been laws you so far to manage it as an engineering system to and you're gonna get books. just go for dredging for these pipes. for these addition systems, we have to understand the ecology of the science of ecology or the system, and it's still valid. in recent views, the leaks water level has dropped, destroying the habitat of some native animal species. we invited invasive plants, species that spread, humming the legs equal system. but that are possible solutions to size. we're trying to find some value. for example, try to find some dies. rex is deep and i submitted some
8:23 pm
of these uh uses species. and if we will get a break to it is a 0 investment volume us plenty of them all the and you can easily use it. the button is also suggest implementing a 5 percent tax on taurus based income to the resulting revenue could be put directly towards recovery measures for the lead months. we were that much shuttle very much hopes that the liquid regardless, it's the only way to ensure that doris, we keep coming here. and that in done will enable future generations like that of his children and grandchildren. on live we often it takes the heat or to make things better and usually they don't really where to keep such a lead. not talk next one from somebody locally and one of the kneeling man, he'd show us the trees around him are healthy and protected. he's so much more than
8:24 pm
hands on approach are inspiring a larger movement towards the oven. cheap ones of ish left me this man who is doing all of this. i don't side his visual of us and it was there's a policeman with across the street of there. i'm a not the small town in the southeast in the, in the state of thomas. and he's on a special offer out of the mission soon enough. he has found a code not the tree, but one of the account is nearly used to pin up advertising, bolts. very small, but they do serious damage to the tree. the sub inspector tells us, so he makes short work of the friend the dollar and drum one of the 2, then you won't find a single increase without ads noon on, do it. what i do is remove them and they increase our lives, stay, but they give us oxygen and it's unfair to hom, them by how many item names into them just for the sake of act on one of the other
8:25 pm
just as our bodies are protected by our skin trees protected by their buck, so kneeling, advertising blackouts degrees damages that out at issue. and those wounds could eventually destroy the entire tree. save district for this officer. campbell, at the s let him go to law and he had to get another well kneeling, a tree, damages the bob, creating the one that makes it susceptible to infections and diseases or even during the rainy season, there is also underscore fungal infection. that's. that's what i did with the good other kind of life of a lot on by the to us. so bosh is doing great work. the kind of actor with the, the 5 should be doing because ask for the constitution of india. it is the duty and responsibility of every citizen to protect nature we but preserving nature is not only the do 2 of the for us department, but also the responsibility of each and every citizen. it is usually important that
8:26 pm
receive fees in one environment. the most. oscar removing the main screen to us and apply the medical face. me to, the medic says, meals and mean it helps prevent infections where the police have been breached to where the molding all when i go to other places like tonight, or tru tv or my daughter. i like getting my 2 lives with me. so in my leisure time, i'll do the same drug there too. i usually circulate in a van this, notice i'm in the locals and i get involved in campaigns about the importance of trees on which the mother puts out a little button on the trees. that's so important, it's impossible for us to stop breathing for just 5 minutes. so even if you're not breezy and the protecting them, we should at least not be harming the more before, but learn about all of the kind of what are the, what are the kind of the 20 years since he begins to adoption of us and has run a series of bones for his cri saving efforts. and
8:27 pm
that's a rep for today's episode. community, if us individual action, an innovative ideas are bottom owned in our fight against what you should. we'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas. let's keep the conversation going. you can email us or reach out to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week until then daycare, goodbye. now most gosh, the to meet the worker of the future. if name such a box,
8:28 pm
it's qualifications the tennessee and it goes, oh, modest says he wants to, then it is wanted to revolutionize i have in traffic. so when could i get to work tomorrow today? next on d. w. shock, so often july, when fin europe is the largest ex fulcher of shock fins. although this brutal act is illegal, coaches continue to prostate feeling poses a danger to the shop population with harsh consequences that the waters, the predatory trade in shocks. those up in 2 hours on d. w, the
8:29 pm
crises around every single connection mapped out shows the geopolitically odyssey be on the board, is what makes things the way they are. all the solutions mapped out, navigating a changing world. now on youtube, if you like, history, but with the side of culture, travel and control the see this one i'm ready to see what the book us that will for the wow side to back into your everyday life. every a we encounter so many things that we don't even notice and i just got a straight into the background, but it is self. i'm trying to spot my own them. what you say might just surprise.
