the world's steel industry emits as much carbon dioxide as all the carbon—producing emissions in thenomy. well, in terms of the aesthetic, it is taken from african sculpture, arm, and so, specifically from the mbulu ngulu, which is also known as the kota reliquary. the techniques and the materials that are often used in that type of sculpture i'm hoping will resonate with ethnic minorities and other groups in terms of familiarity and the way that we tend to be resourceful, but unknowingly so in terms of how we recycle and how we re—use things that we come into contact with. and a prime example for that is african sculpture in how they re—use and repurpose materials. steel is a massive polluter, partly from the energy needed to raise temperatures to 1,500 celsius, but also because steel is formed by baking iron along with coke, a fuel derived from coal. that baking process creates even more co2 emissions. in lulea, in northern sweden, there's a world—leading breakthrough in the quest for zero carbon steel. this is the current technology. ok, so, monica, what's going on here? this is a

extremely carbon intensive. -- industries that are extremely carbon intensive. you can provide other educational and retraining opportunities. but i am strongly of the mind that this process of transformation, this green transition -- either in a managed way or a disorganized way -- it will drive our economy ahead. the type of jobs that will come out of that process are not the same as the i.t. revolution for instance. creating an app does not create meaningful productive work in west virginia, or in tennessee, or in texas. but building wind farms will -- or solar, necessary industrial shifts -- that does. the states with the largest amount of wind power are not in blue, democratic states. it is texas and kansas. it is real jobs, real income, real developed. it is one that can be more equitable than the paradigm that we have been living. >> migration. this is potentially one of the biggest threats in the abilities of countries to tackle climate change because when you have large migration flows of a great number

but because of our commitment to fight climate change, we are working very, very hard to de carbonized and develop other sources of energy that we can rely on. and that we can share with the world. what russia's invasion of ukraine has done as 2 impacts. one in on the global energy situation in the short term. it has made it imperative that friends and allies of canada like germany in europe reduced their reliance on russian oil and gas. but in the medium and long term, it means the world needs to accelerate its ending, if it's dependency on oil and gas in general. so we are in a situation in the short term where we will do what we can to contribute to the global supply of energy by increasing our capacities in the short term and explore ways to see if it makes sense to export l n g. and if there's a business case for it to export l, n g directly to europe. and that's something that you can make conversations going on between businesses in canada and in, in germany. but in the medium term and long term canada can and will position itself to be a key supplier of energy to the world in a

carbon removal., versus a tree that's planted which may extract carbon for 100 years, but then decay. we put charm's idea to two climate change experts. first, mike mcguirk from the colorado school of mines. i think this concept is conceptually very powerful. itjust comes down to efficiency and costs, and unfortunately that's not unique to them whatsoever. when it comes to carbon capture, the questions have always been efficiency and cost. and then the carbon removal expert, robert hoagland. from what we're seeing and how they're approaching it, they're doing in a very responsible and safe way so that you're taking carbon and you're actually storing it permanently, i would say there's very little doubt about that. it's solid tonnes. the question is more, is this a pathway that we want to see on a very large scale? charm wants to build thousands of these units on farms and forests. they have lofty ambitions. however, angela has heard grand ideas like this before, but she's not convinced. i think sort

the by a sphere of f landmass, stores some 2300 giga tons of carbon. this way, but c's and oceans fill to far more carbon from the air around 38000 kicked tons are stored under water. the humans released too much c o 2 into the atmosphere, and the system becomes imbalanced. the earth heat's up a recent study has shown that elvis fishing oceans could cause additional damage to the carbon cycle. but how could this be? it's taking just a matter of decades for industrial fishing to spread from traditional fishing areas in the northern hemisphere to cover all the planets oceans over the last 70 years, the amount of fish caught by humans has more than quadrupled to over $90000000.00 tons a year. add to that 38000000 tons of bi catch marine wildlife captured incidentally almost 30 percent of all fishing grounds are considered over fished with many populations now an able to recover. in addition to the impact on our marine ecosystem, this development might also be a contributing factor to climate change. a survey conducted by scientists at the university of ca

by capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. through photosynthesis, the trees transform it into bio mass. mixed forests sequester more carbon than monoculture stu, ah, today, i could do. the thing is in a forest, south, east of bon. he's carrying out measurements on various trees, a trees height, the diameter of its trunk, and its age are an indication of how much c, o 2 a tree can remove. conf. forest trees absorb less. c o. 2 than deciduous. one's a 40 meter spruce where the trunk that's about 60 centimeters in diameter, removes about 4 tons of c o 2 from the atmosphere. a pine tree of the same size removes only 5 tons an oak of similar size removes 6 tons of c o 2. and the front runner is the beach at 7 tons. ah, this is a beach tree. heavies hidden and i've measured the diameter of this tree at about chest height, about 1.3 meters from what was ground level, embody the adobe flash of of a key. we have about 2.31 meters for the diameter for that would be about here. on summit on dorothy verizon with it. yeah, i need seal so

the researchers focus is on changing the genetics of carbon metabolism. they then placed the manipulated fungus in a bio reactor after between $3.00 and $5.00 days of growth and a few additional procedures, the team checked the results the amount of scaling produced has now increased 10 fold. but the team want to further improve their method. in longer laboratory scale, we do have the very effect, each squealing production in each cells from another one, but 2 or 5 liter scale today. but obviously we're interested in increasing that went into just real scales. well, also improving the extraction of an squeeze on that will enable us to use least squealing to replace the animal latest version. so as it's generating large quantities of squealing in the bio reactor would be a major success for the researchers in austria as well as on the conservation front than to conf. disqualify rebecca here for what it is. then being able to use brodis to produce wally in white means some miraculous and to shark fishing. then it's not there. it is dull too many other produ

that way the carbon stays sequestered. so the overall impact his positive form via impulsive, i, english, transformative, back in australia, the focus is on scientific research and the hunt for the perfect future forest. at the australian plant bank, near sidney emerick, mo, do wants to figure out which seed mixture works best for drone reforestation projects with botanist graham erington who matches seed mixtures with soils and ecosystems helps the work the weekend by going yeah, and collecting nice aids is helping to understand not so much now we might be able to establish here it is as substitutes with blockers, but to supplement what we hackers and to assist, let bye diversity to my science. so i think those are way as well to integrate, due to so the to could work together. the better suited the seed mixture is to local conditions. the more likely it is that trees will thrive. but what's the best way to bring a new forest to life? emerick mo, do and his team are planning to test that in the blue mountains near sidney.

this one for oxide to carbon dioxide. what they come from combustion to that's cars, car in this gina industry. these are the major pollutant that can be destroyed by this. what kind of impact are we talking about me? how much pollution is being sucked from the air as we speak? yes, these are 9 pounds and the square meter of these concrete active concrete, this can clean their alpha equivalent to exhaust gas from $100.00, these at car or almost $300.00 for on gasoline cars. so i think is a significant impact. and this is the impact of just one building, one person who would greatly benefit from a city made of the cement is resident laura tournament, laura chow, chow. or, you know, she suffers from severe asthma due to the heavily polluted air here, which is now affecting her mobility for laura. you are a true milanese woman. you've lived here your entire life. celia. so go synthetic with. when did you 1st start to notice that the pollution in the city was really affecting your health? my queen the showing me fine for me j

so we are a huge carbon sync, and therefore i chose to use the would carbon negative we don't have a choice, but to come together as well world as one people to addressed d, escalating threats of climate change. it is urgent that we use the technology, the wisdom, the resources are combined resources to tackle this global problem once and for only in error. i. some might not be the largest island in the world, but in a fight to talk carbon emissions this unlikely. environmental champion is punching well above its weight. it's unique volcanic geology doesn't just creek breathtaking scenery, but is enabled 100 percent of its electricity to be generated by renewable sources . much of which is do some eisen is the only country in the world to the t. i'm here at the edge of the arctic circle where scientists are combining geothermal activity with a new technology to try and help ice and become carbon neutral for good for this is cute and const eh, if they're very famous restaurant in these parts, they apparently they cook on geothermal energy and i've been told the kid is randa back. wow,

the government has set the year 2050 as the goal to achieve carbon neutrality.n the budget allocations for next fiscal year, the ministry plans to request %10 billion or about $73 million to help smaller businesses acquire technology that will reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide. that is more than double the figure for this fiscal year. the ministry also plans to ask for more than $10 million to help companies draw up action plans for assessing and reducing their emissions. in total, the ministry is that request $5.4 billion in the budget framework for fiscal 2023. that is up by more than $600 million from its initial budget for this fiscal year. source pierre part plot in western japan has become testing the use of carbon dioxide recovered from exhaust gas for agriculture purposes. workers at the power plant installed a system which cools exhaust gas and collect co2 of high purity. about 300 kilograms of carbon dioxide is collected per day which is then piped to greenhouses in the compound. co2 helps vegetables and fruits such as tomatoes and strawberries

tricky, because nobody is forced to report their own emissions. scientists take estimates of the carbon pollution from an activity or product and combine them with data about how often you do or buy it. that's hard enough to get right for yourself, but when it comes to billionaires, this is even hiler, because you don't have that much information about them be at least borrows, worked out the carbon footprints of 20 billionaires in 2018. he had to work with what we had, we had to work with, then millionaires who, who's lifestyle is glamorize, who often appear in the media will show and show off their yards, their private chance. that meant they ignored some of the richest people in asia. but in europe, in the us, they found plenty of material to keep them busy. take romana brockovich, a russian oligarch, steel magnate, and former football club owner. his 162 meter long yard has to help heads and kind of unnecessarily for the boat to swimming pools. powering this single ship with diesel makes up the bulk of his colossal carbon footprint. how about microsoft founder bill gate? he's a bill

if you _ carbon capture. the science is clear on this. if you look - carbon capture.f you look at. clear on this. if you look at the leading authority on this, the leading authority on this, the intergovernmental panel on try —— climate change in their studies, they say we will not achieve our climate change goals unless we capture carbon. it's not going to happen. i've worked long and hard to try and bring down the price of solar and wind power, but solar panels and wind turbines are not going to decarbonise aviation, they are not going to decarbonise heavy industry. we need revolutions in a lot of different places and i think we're going to need carbon capture and this legislation does as much as anything to help with that. how do you perceive fossil fuel companies? are they part of a necessary evil? i companies? are they part of a necessary evil?— necessary evil? i think this is one of the — necessary evil? i think this is one of the biggest _ necessary evil? i think this is| one of the biggest challenges we are facing today. as we are seeing in europe today and ar

the scientists say that some amount of carbon capture may be necessary to -- to pull out carbon that's already been emitted. it is entirely different for the gold company something that they can just keep on extracting -- oil companies to think that they can just keep on extracting and just swallow a magic pill that will make the emissions go away. i, too, would like to swallow a pill that would make me after eating chocolate beautiful for the next 30 years. kristen: president biden certainly supports it. it is in the inflation reduction act, with subsidies for companies doing that. i understand the argument, being able to capture it, put it aside may extend the lives of these companies by saying, we are not that bad. but do you see this as an all or nothing? do we not need to do both, as we continue to cut emissions and move to clean energy, do we not also need to support the capture of emissions and say we've got to do both? >> we needed to get that bill passed. we had to throw in some billions of dollars in political bribes, let me just be blunt here, bribes to senator manchin and s

a see grasses are incredibly efficient at storing carbon. some studies show that they capture carbon $35.00 times faster than tropical rain forests. the more deeds underwater initiative is currently involved in a global study looking at exactly how much carbon the maldives meadows could sequester. once we split our sediment core into the different that profiles or we will weigh it dry it and then weigh it again. and we will send it off to a lab for analysis. and they will be looking at the organic carbon content inside each of the depth samples. this is really important because it will help us understand how much carbon these marine ecosystems are storing, which would help mitigate against climate change. c, gras meadows also act as a nursery full small fish, including economically targeted species such as snappers and groupies by educating local communities about c grasses. she ha, ha, seem hopes that both nature and the community is relying on these ecosystems will benefit in the long term. now really know how important it figures because

this valuable ecosystem also absorbs carbon dioxide. for our series global ideas, we dived into the fascinating underwater worlds of the mold eaves. all the islands assholes of the multi. it's unknown world wide for that crystal clear waters and coral reefs. they're also home to another, incredibly bio diverse and important ecosystem. c cross meadows. shahan shame is amal devion, ocean conservationist working to bring this overlooked ecosystem to light. looks like there's a big, a huge patch of c grass actually segmented. dumping have a look 1st and then we're going to do a rapid assessment of the meadow. this is to understand what kind of species there are, the species composition and whether the patches healthy to do a more in depth. so is very little scientific work has been done on the country, see grass, meadows, and new sites are still being explored. secret meadows plan important role for the climate as carbon reservoirs, there are 8 different species of secret found throughout them all deeps. the root system of these plans close

another key part of this bill is the carbon capture.echnology that enables you to capture the carbon emissions as they burn and coming out of the powerplant and the industrial processes. the united nations has widely acknowledged that the technology is needed in the coming decades to get the globe off of fossil fuels and a transition the world to cleaner energy. especially if they can develop it, right now it is still working through cost concerns and deployment issues. but the 10 year of the tax credit is really critical for helping get those costs down and getting deployment down. if they can do that, we can may be continue burning some of these fossil fuels and continuing to use natural gas in a way that helps renewable energy. it can act as a backup option as long as that carbon captured it can help. host: mike in houston, texas. caller: i find it interesting that the caller from alabama engined germany there is a case study in what is failing them for the quality of life there is deteriorating and i'm sure he's a great guy, but he

one way to solve this is a carbon tax. raise the cost of flying to reflect the damage it does to the planet . sound simple, but it also makes find this thing that's already only accessible to a small group of people, even more elite. you would have to set up blanket carbon tax extremely high to deter the frequent flyers and business travelers. that same added cost would be felt much more by a middle class family. wealthiest, specifically, the one ascent will always buy their way out of common texas, just because the care this is jeff and you're selling a sustainability researcher, who says we should focus on the super frequent flyers people who for instance, take more than 12 flights a year. it moved there, just one percent of the worst population of this little group will account for more than half off all the asian emissions that the system is causing a year. one way to address this is to increase the cost of flying for every extra flight you take. this is known as a frequent fire levy. it would cut demand for air travel without pushing the activity further into the hands of the ve

that's because oxygen atoms in the iron ore fly off and bind with carbon atoms in the coal. what's left behind is essentially pure iron known as reduced. i'm. and a whole late of the year to the 2nd reason steel sat said that it takes colossal amounts of energy to power this process. and most of that comes from you guessed it, burning cold today. 72 percent on the global level are produced by this production . this is vito, a touch go. a steel analyst at german climate. think tank a got any given the. he says we're running out of time. the investment decision, steel make of make to day a crucial because the co fire glass furnace of have a lifetime of 15 to 20 years. and after that need to be repaired or retired. the 2020, very critical became in disregard because more than 70 percent of the global blast phone of sweeps will reach the end of the campaign lives and require reinvestment and re investment decision. so what should still make be doing right now? either j hydrogen, hydrogen gym wonders of hydrogen, hydrogen to the gas and fuel that can be made cleanly with renewabl

, went completely carbon neutral. in other words, from a carbon point of view would be equivalent to america ceasing to exist. then global temperatures 80 years from now will have been reduced by 3/10 of one degree fahrenheit relative to what they would otherwise be. and this is not my analysis. this is according to the u. n. climate model. so feel free to estimate the impact of a few more rich people buying teslas. i know my democratic colleagues sincerely want to reduce greenhouse gas emissions anyway. well there's a way we can do that. there's one thing that has made a dramatic reduction in the u.s. greenhouse gas admissions already. it's american energy production . between 2005 and 2019, the u.s. led the world in emission reductions largely due to transitioning from coal to natural gas. david butterworth is worth is with us today. he's a business manager for the pipe liners local union 7 98 representing 6400 union pipeline workers. he's been a member of the union for 25 years. mr. butterworth will testify to the

first, they are doing this because they are concerned about carbon initiatives.s added to carbon initiatives, and -- if you are actually worried about that, what's the first thing you would be thinking "private jet travel, obviously, it emits a lot of carbon. in just 60 minutes, it emits about 60 times more than an average household emits in three months in one flight! private jet travel's are responsible for more greenhouse gases than the nation of denmark. commercial planes -- private planes collude -- so you would think that most people who fly private our affluence by definition, and the global warming cult is most popular with the affluent, that these same people would have given up private jet travel, but just the opposite: it's become more popular since the pandemic. it's up 22% since 2019. more than 70% of all private jet flights take place in the united states. what are they doing? ferrying politicians like gavin newsom who doesn't fly commercial, and celebrities like taylor swift, who is jet famously 8,300 tons of carbon this year so far. if you are loo

not because oxygen atoms in the iron ore fly off and bind with carbon atoms in the cold . what's left behind is essentially pure iron known as reduced. i'm and a whole lot of c o 2. the 2nd reason steel sucks is that it takes colossal amounts of energy to power. this process that most of that comes from you guessed it, burning cold today. 72 percent on the global level are produced by this production developed. this is vito va touch, go the steel analyst at german climate. think tank a go to an a give and he says, we're running out of time. the investment decision still make us make to day a crucial because these cof, i'd love to run this with, have a lifetime of 15 to 20 years. and after that need to be repaired or retired. the 2020s are very critical. the kate industry guides because more than 70 percent of the global blast furnace fleet will reach the end of the campaign life and require the investment and re investment decisions. so what should still make of be doing right now? either jim hydrogen, hydrogen, it only, jim's a wonders of hodgen. hydrogen is a gas and fue
