1:30 am
clearly have the solutions, the future of the 77 percent every weekend on dw, the molding technology is part of our everyday lives. you'll probably usually need right now to watch this show. today we're going to see how technology can help us and environments and how work you would make you can improve for a while lives where it has so much to offer. i'm chris alone. so lagos, nigeria, welcome to ico offrey got caught in the video, but the bible says, sending gold take to social media as
1:31 am
a whole lot more amazing. also nigeria, but what of these fibers? the fundraiser, lay down and adopt into the droughts k f almost straight calls for condos. in the course of while i research for eco africa, it's hard for me to meet so many people working hard to solve problems. some are also building stuff biddable because this is the process, such as in the garden uh with a climate innovation center is acting as a kind of incubator for green stock tops, or ring a lease sort of appeal maze on inspiring as they look. these plans implants, ways are being used to grow, flourish in business. he lives in kilo's after 5 appeal is thrown out every day. they're root, vegetable, east of poplar,
1:32 am
food in gonna says a lot more cool. and these are cool, decided, oh, this vegetable waste was wasted rescue in the last 10 years. they have run a business specialized in growing oyster mushrooms. the cold division process uses as of course, ro waste some of which would otherwise be banned in the fields. nothing is coming to community. i realize most of them is on top of that. it's a ways to dispose of the course of with, with us or they do, it's been the phone lines. we put the line for the next time he says, and when they do that it's cause i'm restricted diseases and lump cancer and even damaged toward life. and i realize because that's really use, of course, always to, for just some, some beneficial, not just only that, it was a good school for it. see what's put on our table and then with income. that's why
1:33 am
i to this new business. and from i believe yet, you also profits from that the business rules, mainly based on who to heck days, misquote, the vision produces a lot of agriculture are arrested. you might say bless, and the business came to a community, and when i no longer been my farmland, like i always had to go nowadays, i gather the waste from my farm and sell it to the last year on company in the village of hawk from paying us that i waste and they sometimes gave us the organic compost from the factory of to production. so we kind of use it as specialize around the farm and don't need to spray chemicals. i g. g, a library is up renee clement williams started a company. the manufacturers products from the maureen got tree, it's leaves contain importance, puts in and $45.00 seats, as well as a wide range of white domains in minerals. graduates of mit in the ways william
1:34 am
funded, he's that top thing years ago making powders juices and creams, but he says interpreters in ghana fees a lot of challenges. we have had situations where, you know, we're trying to get a local certification and we need all the requirements. everything has even been done. there's a letter saying is approved and it takes 14 months, not an exaggeration, 14 months to get the actual physical certificate. elaine c process, that means that the lease and the products rich in the market, but squarely williams built up an extensive and next week of maureen, the pharmacist in the region around as a boy farm is having always seen lorinda as a profitable plant in a month now the wick with the company, the regular custom is for the fresh leaves suited for processing. and the last 10
1:35 am
years farm is i've also planted around 2000000 more of these miracle trees from seeds. the harvest is sticking from the phones to a factory and so on. 56, low make this a wave from gun is cut, stomach try. yet the leaves are dried, processed, and packaged, also for exports. we believe that what's going on. i should also be processing done . so we do all the primary processing of our products. see that it's all here right here and gone now. leaves fresh leaves and dried leaves and powders and teams right here and on. so that way we're creating jobs and i'm happy to share that we've now we not employed nearly 90 people across out about the change or the system level of business, just like he's also receive support from the governor clement univision, st. that it offers red blood trainings and also carpet tiles. first, a tops. i will provide you with the business advisor and how works one to one with you and your team members. so the business advisor works with you on such and
1:36 am
related activities, right, to it, to bring about operational efficiency. but also to ensure that you know, you minimize, you call them footprints like the mushroom growers with the support of the innovation st that they used exclusively, locally source materials for the factory. production is also low emission quality to compose beneficial, double waste is needed for their mushroom soup balls. the mushrooms are ready to have missed after in mind they mine is terry hughes. you're not even able to miss just the cause of that demand. that's uh customers. i knew for every day the company sells around 1000 kilograms of biased and mushrooms a month. this, that tops welcome this difficult means is sold to the farm is. so both in technology calibree how farm is in the fields. i can also help with selling the produce is some of the brand number follows i turned into the social
1:37 am
media to retail to new customers in the seat is now these ad briggs was us get to boost that income from that other from us. and how fun see don't i'm, that's not really my main shoots, his latest clinton for his thousands of follow it on tick tock. and this is popularity online has grown. so have has sales. if you do, i was just making the videos for fun. and i didn't even know the impact social media was having danielle. more likely i've had a lots of clients with, especially from europe or even from a distance. and i did see what i'm doing. my may is among a new crop of sam is revolutionizing synagogues, agricultural sick to using social media. it allows him to bypass costly middleman and negotiate directly with customers,
1:38 am
cutting costs and providing that personal touch a magic. but if it, if i decide to make my own videos, because you don't have to pay to do it. so the 5th on what do you do? you are a marketing. so you guess out what's in selling g right. gets out what you've been working on that be able to present that to say for me if it was much more natural and people are much more receptive to it. and they mentioned, even if it doesn't have the quality, even if it doesn't have the image or the sounds that people like, what's natural, you show what you've already done without editing them up or doing anything that they have. the more that's not fair yet. some of these so called ad grow influences have now set up their own consultancies. no guy is one of them. she, she is videos and self is online, offering tips on how to grow and have as crops and manage funding projects. so i started using social networks in september, when i set up a been a agribusiness. it's about getting more visibility and finding people in general,
1:39 am
the customers i work with, i find on social networks, they contact me directly on instagram. so i give them my number and then i visit their fields and those, and now i help them with production. current lease, then it goes agricultural sector, makes up only a small proportion of the countries ged pay, but it's new government wants to cut imports and a cheap food sovereignty in the near future, offering fear child ground for this new generation of tech savvy farm is to thrive and grow as follows are used to working with nature, but those are for those who leave and cities awful find ourselves far removed from mother nature. many cities don't even have much of greenery or trees that leads to pull a quality. rising temperature pushes out wildlife with more and more people move into cities around the world. these need to change what, how we cross the gemini now for some possible ideas. concrete,
1:40 am
every last gray has replaced green. we constantly building more higher. foster concrete production is responsible for around 8 percent of c o. 2 emissions worldwide. and impressions of a full send us way using a dwindling results, namely sound and various other fossil results is that we can't use forever. we have to think about how we can build most sustainably on the cross. we absolutely need more greenery enough to use because they are overheating by some developers, reddick us us. it's a cool if you think about it architecture and nature, diametrically opposed. we build primarily to protect ourselves from wild life or the weather for example. and that means the ways destroying nature in some way when we build through attempts and it was just a, you know, that's what's us for them to develop. but what if we were to at, with nature, you know, building rather than against an exhibition in berlin,
1:41 am
they showcasing projects that seek to do just that. how do trees grow together to form a structure? this question has fascinated architect fetching and looked big for 20. he wants to connect buildings with trees and is constructing a kind of tree house in the city. ready cost to the corporate, so you have to work a lot with others that it's interdisciplinary. will tell you what his botanists, forestry scientists, civil engineers, ecologists, we'll work together to pull on knowledge from different disciplines. so it can be used in the design in process. i'm going to let project in the southern gemini shows what the building made of trees could look like of to 12 years. the plane tree team is i've a 10 me to sign a tour to then the neighboring can to go. the children use the shady space inside to play. otherwise, it's home to insects and that the, the trunks of the young plane trees have branched out in grinding together. the
1:42 am
architects check the gross regularly plain trays mccloud tatum on all 6 levels. at the same time, each in its own box has to say, appealing to areas of the plane trees outside of that plant. as an inch connect with the plane trees further on. and it goes from from the then screwed together to i'm glad you the grabbing to one unit. then they can remove the boxes. ready they prompted more than 1000 plane trees because like with many oven trees, some of the seedlings died from disease or frost. in the years to come, the tree tops will grow together to full memory. a quick a option might be fungus. this igloo hot is made of wood and fungus tunnels, the surface itself, the touch that the panels are right bust. so how do you get the hot materials from soft fungus? here to nature is the inspiration. the tend to fungus likes to grow on deciduous
1:43 am
trees. touching itself to the wood. biologist visa, that's the health. welcome, the fun guy house cultivating tend to fungus and the live or a tree. she needs a source, it comes through, it's on the tree. so halt if is i, mrs. is this song? this is great for building just to says, because through the, my cell in the root struck 2 of the fungus that grows on the ground residues are brought together and that into linking creates a most stable material instead of extra beautiful scottsdale, that makes it ideal for the developers of the fund guy house, the collective of scientists, architects and artists, gross fund, guy coaches, and mixes them with various other materials, always including organic waste, like wood, shavings, own minutes. then they press the mixed it into shape. after a few weeks, they kill off the fun guest by heating, it's the material, then remains solids. it's already used for installation,
1:44 am
but building with it is nice. scientists in the maybe a, a further ahead. oyster machines trying, fha, using a similar process. they've used the remains of the mushroom as a compass it material building blocks from the mixed together with architects. they've used them to build the 1st house. the whole climate hand makes it possible that the team wants to facilitate affordable and environmentally friendly housing. african countries are also ahead enclave construction. traditional month homes with large knee replaced in cities during the colonial era. now they're making a come back, especially in west africa. in government launch house is a bank builds with compacted modules. they provide a good indo climate and stay cool in money. the traditional nubian volts has also being rediscovered it's spelled with money breaks, put it together with motels in europe, and the a few plan is a working with much like austria's mouse here. nicole who even produces larger
1:45 am
projects with round us wills, but must break buildings or otherwise, ret here, from the side and business. and so it's a g, b as privilege at the west and well we no longer build with much during the industrialization of construction in the 19th century, much was replaced mainly by concrete. in other parts of the world, it still use turn around. 40 percent of the global population live in my towns is today. we've just forgotten how to build this way around. how was the visit to see i'd like to live in the future? in a fun guy house, a month house, or a house made of trees, technician, or company the actually like a combination of all 3 month breaks for the load bearing wills, fungus installation, and trees on the outside. but the tree house when you're buying that, it's almost a cost that takes nick color instead of big machinery. you can just use crumbs to
1:46 am
build with trees, something very simple and cheap, but in the long term, i think we need to be more daring. and it's auto monthly. i'm looking at holland. well, this is difficult. i think this is the future. we need to what much more with nature and also against it. and you can give that to that nature of as a number of other materials like c weight which could also be suitable for construction. even if for such is still in its infancy. the projects on display show how all could tech to and housing could protect both the environment and us humans. we've looked at ideas for new homes, but what the of all the buildings that already exists all about grid, the re or roof tops to improve a quality. i reduce about heat. that's just the sides. we stay in euro. well i next for, for that had to dot city offer up to them, were experts i explored the vast potential of roof tops. okay,
1:47 am
me on the fund rent some looks gardening and his workplace is this roof of a rush or dumb office building is commitment to looking after plants and smiles up here goes beyond the joys of gardening for the state. it isn't to prolong cycle, but it's becoming increasingly important for cities to store walter helping more and more water is flowing in the city office told me walter, them floods frequently for low and the sellers. the street are in the tunnels, are full because we have to find ways to store walter with green smart roofs and it's we actually madonica, divide her up to find it. like on this office building the 1st of its kind to our tanks under the roof. that can store rain water, guarding the sewer is against flooding during heavy rainfall. the roof this ex, as a sponge, doesn't clip it, others evolve here at the flu. i've gotten a device to communicate automatically with a weather server and checks whether there is enough capacity for more reading. walter, i guide if not to open up, what's your history and also
1:48 am
a better thing to take. but it's not uncommon about the better through a piping system on the buildings exterior. in the future, the water will be used for the garden or to flush the toilets in the building. but the system is expensive and too heavy for many buildings. so for now, the roof tongues are still the exception for the new box, it just didn't require me to do anything with the roof. so if new buildings, but even just on existing buildings, there are around 400 square kilometers a flat tories area. plus the picnic ring cells and so we could connect tool to build insect hotels, to bio diversity or to solar collectors. there's a numerous potential that isn't being exploited yet or feel more innovations such as lighter materials are needed for the project on this plan is clear to have more smart roofs become a sponge city. when we come back to africa now, and it's often said, beauty is in the eye of the the old up. well,
1:49 am
we're about to meet the man who was loved to see beauty and all use you objects and then make it visible to others. i mean, does that it's is done in fashion. just take a look at this week's, go in your bits. this is not your every day clean up emission. blinking you cool is collecting, discarded cons on this new shots. each of them, extreme districts is going to turn them. it's a piece of off log scale, images of iconic because instead of going use this dive ridge gauze. and i believe is bought both ways. he's going to come by this office of at one day. if mike was tom, well what to live? it's gonna cost um $2.00 a month. the assets uses up to 1000 fragments of trend, depending on the size of the artwork. first, reading system, disinfect the con,
1:50 am
the selected ben cox 70 to strips. i'm nice there, mr. fulcher, some 50 to 60000000 tons of aluminum waste generated globally every year and several 100009 jared alone. but it's also one of the most recycled materials to be case out as even a truck that attention within the drinking history. this full of traits was commissioned by the managing direct so if you live in ghana, chris will see that is supposed to be case of cycling mission. as a way of reducing waste. con, need to be disposed of while they are using the right way. and so please do not just lit up the environment with it. please dispose of property a cheap week a if indeed you cool describes himself as an environmental artist, unrestricted process, as
1:51 am
a for most of the diversity with the suffering of the planet. to pop on the journey depends our environmental policies are taking. i'm thinking it's the safety environment. well, what a talent. now as you are probably aware where the apartments are changing all over the world and becoming more predictable, that's close to likely by use of fossil fuels. repeated droughts in northern kenya, which additional cut to farm and extremely difficult, so far most of finding new ways of adapting to the changing climates. in the heart of central kenya, this site is becoming increasingly common kennels wandering across the once capital dominated landscapes of like keep us so hudson and like 65 year old of july, he mohammed, these kennels, are lifeline. corporate. can i see the company before the drought?
1:52 am
i and heard of the cattle, but when the drought head. oh, but one of the cattle died and now i'm on the left with one second. the larger the 2020 drought was one of the worst kenya has seen in decades across the country, thousands of 100 is lost. the capital as cost is disappeared, leaving families devastated and without the main source of livelihood. up to 2600000 capital perished. these codes the need traditional live stock, the up to allow he's family has left a now mainly has camels. very number one day where and cattle is difficult when the pastor is destroyed and some candles are easier to rear. they feed on trumps and survive. and how shall conditions when the passage rise out in the castle di and the light is feeling the impact of drought spreading south unpredictable rains all turning its one screen passages into barren land,
1:53 am
neighboring some brewery faces. similar challenges as the ongoing drought means families have to travel long distances to fetch all set for themselves. and the animals 26 year old team lasagna has been false to adapt. the hudson has also switched from capital to camels. say again that you know when the draft came and we under a 150 capital, we sold them in both 5 camels and ones on the camel's will help us survive until it rains again of a which was that you could decide on the site like many in the region, lasalle, yeah, has learned that camels with their ability to survive on this was and feed on tough vegetation a best associated to the new reality. they can lose 30 percent of that body weight and survive. and they also have a high, a milky open cows. but the move from capital to camel heading is not without
1:54 am
challenges. cartridge. yeah, if there's an fidget, this limits to companies that you're searching video this uh, 11 to 14 months. so to multiply cummins a to declare a longer time compared to cutting and so it's may not be possible to get to it. let me cut the comments as quickly as possible. so how does in central kenya, the connection to the traditional livestock remain strong? let loose it then i you, it was the range retard and we cannot sell 2 or 3 candles to purchase a cow the purchase of milk ill. but for now the switch, the channels is helping them build resilience for the future to be there. and they talk to you about the reduced assessing the communities and we can do to manage with the processes they,
1:55 am
they can do little additional glazing where they can handle because who it is so easy to judge isn't about today telling you that this, that to the in the communities i don't at atlanta community point, it's the traditional pastor list way of life is to continue. communities have to find ways to share their results is and find climate tricity and alternatives. camels can provide them with much needed stability. so it's amazing demos, and that brings us to the end of visitation of eco africa. i hope you've enjoyed all stories as much as i have if you'd like to seals reported on any particular environmental issues there rights to us at ico a d, w dot com for now is good by for me, chris, a lens, a nigeria the
