cool, cool. great. but it's just me of the china is costco shipping company has just opened a mega port on the coast of per room with its face. serious opposition from locals to stay is causing environmental harm. in organizations that say it has nothing to support the global climate transition. at a time when many sports are trying to do everything they can to meet climate cold and be more environmentally friendly. but kenneth expandable to begin with, coming up in our latest episode of transforming business. this 3500000000 dollar mega port just open in peru. it's the chunk chi terminal and it's part of china's belt and wrote initiative the countries and vicious global infrastructure
12:17 am
development strategy part of the quality corporation between from body and china under the belt road. and there's a china state own costco shipping company, owns a majority. 60 percent stake in the port peruse publicly held volk and companion. i mean eta on so read a partnership will get to a bit later costco shipping is also part owner in numerous terminals across europe, asia, the middle east and the america costco says it intends for chunk high to be a major transport time that will connect to china to peru and the rest of latin america. costco says that a direct route from trendkite to shanghai, significantly reduced and shipping time. nearly 2 kilometer long tunnel connect support to the pan american highway. goods from china can arrive and be distributed more quickly. it has the potential to dramatically change, peruse economic reality,
12:18 am
but not everyone is happy about it. a good for you to bump it out at the new. okay . more if you got the money out of state, use us. what number? you know, most data is to what is the now police department associated lucky you pick it on a piece of met alejandro tv knows leads, environmental non profit cool off of that. see on always what's your let me see. i'm going to find somebody to come up with the side of the infrastructure projects towards have the biggest impact risk to a surrounding environment, more than roads, oil refineries, airport power plants and railways. so without sports, global trade and the modern economic prosperity that comes hand in hand with it wouldn't exist in a press statement. costco shipping a couch of chunk high, as it's 1st of green and smart for investment in south america. it points to a fleet of fully electric container trucks responsible for moving cargo around the
12:19 am
port and promises to establish load life rescue centers. costco says the trunk hi aspires to become a hub for in latin america. distinguished by its operational efficiency and dedication to green low carbon growth, but can afford exist in a way that isn't detrimental to the environment or local communities. that's a question that many in the sector are trying to answer. the global maritime industry is responsible for up to 3 percent of global carbon emissions. this may not seem like a lot, but in a global system where growth is central and an economies key measure of success. it's a number that is expected to increase rapidly to 10 percent of global carbon emissions by 25th. seaports have made big ships recently, not only to reduce their carbon footprint, but to be a key driver of sustainability within the shipping sector. even if a ship isn't ready to move away from fossil fuels, there are many other elements of port operations that are like the cranes that move
12:20 am
containers from shift to ports and various utility vehicles. the biggest port in europe and the biggest port outside asia is a port of halter down in the netherlands because of its size. it's also the port that emits the most c o 2 in the u block, according to research agency transport and environment. but here on this 40 kilometer long strong, you'll see more away. several green initiatives are underway, the industrial area. these types, for example, will bring carbon emissions captured from the port into a storage area, complete a gas field under the north sea. through this carbon capture system, the poor defaulted um says it will be able to store 37000000 tons of c o 2 that would have otherwise been released into the atmosphere. we think that there's only one way to develop and that's, that's sustainable. because on to them and from the port of water down,
12:21 am
because that's also the, the only way to get to an economic, sustainable future as an environmental sustainable future culture. thomas position as europe's main hub puts in a position to influence how other e u countries operate. one sort of whole energy does use in germany, bosses grew up with them. and nowadays that's, that's mainly fossil energy. and what we didn't set well as well, if you want to change these into renewable energy, we can offer supply chains for green hydrogen, which then can be transported into germany, maritime industry experts are betting on hydrogen as the fuel of the future. but right now, most of it is made through a process that relies on fossil fuels. this site will soon be planned for green hydrogen, which is made from clean energy. another way that ports are trying to hit climate transition goals is providing vessels with onshore power onshore power o. p s,
12:22 am
as it snowed in the industry, is kind of like a giant club for ships providing power to the vessel the same way. the charging station does to an electric car. the port of stock home and sweden recently inaugurated its own ups for cruise ships. the systems on board, the ship slip need to be maintained, and instead of using the excel excel away engines and the fossil fuels, they use green electricity from the port shop. lots of soluble leads environmental strategy for the port of stock home, where o p s became available to cruise vessels this year. the idea is that o p a systems will eventually allow all ships to use green energy while they're birthing dock. because auxilary engines that are kept running well for of release toxic, pollute, like soul for and nitrogen dioxide. you legislation requiring that member states meet certain climate goals by 2030, or 2050, or a big part of why ports across the continent are making changes. they have to but
12:23 am
these kinds of changes come with challenges. they require quite a big investments, both in the ports and also when it comes to, to the ships they need to retrofit, to be able to connect to the o p s. this year we received some e u funding for, for installation of the o. p. s, for, for the container ships in the 4th of august of ne. so that's the great news. it's certainly a start. but according to the european c ports organization, the you will need to invest at least 80000000000 euros in reading for infrastructure in the next 10 years. back in peru, the shortage of funding to make rate changes in the absence of climate transition policies are making it difficult for ports to make sweeping changes to how they operate and then putting nothing else. yeah. unless yes, happening way schools will. oh, but what do you got going to say?
12:24 am
usually i get in the process of the other ones. i feel that's sony rodriguez cross the director of safety environment sustainability at the m or audi company. d p world. it operates the guy out terminal about an hour south of costs goes chunk high ports. she says that despite the lack of regional regulation, the board is on the mission to reduce carbon emissions by at least 90 percent by 2030 s. and this is the shop when you decide you want to go, i go and pay for lindsey this last as long as the orders. if i'm just gonna send you out, gets sent to you as opposed to interest. i feel kidding from you and you are you last the i'm also going to be in the field in shanghai. the for just more than just breaks in the relationship between the 2 countries. it gives china direct access to peruse valuable minerals, which includes copper, silver in think experts say this is one example of how china is tearing transport
12:25 am
and access to natural resources in a way that ensures its own strategic growth and control of the global minimal supply chain. china is very heavily invested into the production of these channels as well as the refinery and further processing at home in china and to further products. lay at home is an international security and china expert. so what we're seeing now is that china is linking these 2 things to improve their becoming a trend porter through the opening of chunky ports. but those living next to chunk kite sate their efforts to make sure the port met environmental standards faced serious opposition. and so let me see what that got for is does accept this for math in a professor, and to call them him for his b. o. nancy, so me some last you so that means that for the neutral then you'll be feed line easily. he star medium lives next door to chunk chi, literally the walls of her home or adjacent to the chunk chi porch. nancy little
12:26 am
style know me to know is a center level that's for next z in this inductive. so i'm assuming that the metal springs that may have to use those associates for more or less the neil. so for the in the you have to see on this order how the would have done this. that's the thing that they say the so this is not not see it's in the us and a few minutes close up the basis for the family. we've reached out to costco for a statement, but didn't hear back by the time this report went to air. and while the construction phase for this project were probably, critics often claim that china is not doing enough to make sure that it's overseas infrastructure projects are in line with the local time, but not everyone agrees. others have pointed out that by 2021 more than 50 percent of china is grant and loan finance infrastructure project portfolio, and low in middle income countries had strong environmental and social safeguards
12:27 am
in place. by to see, we will see both upticks and these positive factors such as employment trade automation, for example, at the port which ultimately will make this more for creating board. every industry is looking at ways it can make its future more sustainable. the ports themselves are on the literal frontier of extreme weather events induced by climate change. so as a gauge to global trade, the catalyst economic growth and development, it seems critical that ports are developed not only to withstand climate change, but not defeated as well. what are your thoughts? let us know in the comments the of the they kept repeating, please, please don't close. we hope they will not close at least these last truth, because otherwise they told me panelists will be torn apart. the bone of between norway and russia is with one exception. the many bus from kicking is in no way,
