A new course from Carbon Dioxide and water fish is a basic need but nowadays its become a privilege how can we change that thats what we find up to be on equal india hello welcome im sunk that our quiz. Are exposed to traffic and industrial fumes people in rural areas lives at risk because of basic everyday activities cooking a social enterprise in india is experimented with introducing clean up Cooking Stores to households and. Lets take a look at the impact this has had. In this cramped kitchen shugart is making a family of 6 shes using the traditional cooking stall a julia. Cloud of smoke. On the market its a beautiful the use of mud still we dont have an alternative look at the markets people have cooked with to last for generations their business we dont have the money to buy better fuel. If we did we might be able to use another kind of story like. India over 37 percent of households still use 5 cheap and easy to access liquid petroleum gas. Is a privilege reserved for the. Open fire means long hours are spent. Breathing in kerosene fumes and smoke from. Collecting food is a burden on the environment and a strenuous task for them and. Locking them along they have to go far into the forest to collect wood sometimes very far sometimes we dont have to go so far we jump the good with an axe tight the pieces together and carry it home on our heads for a couple to get a one room.

A social enterprise has been working to tackle the problem of Energy Poverty and the role for india has developed and efficient store it uses voted but around 60 percent less than a traditional stove it is also designed to significantly cut the smoke and box of commissions that are responsible for health problems. The organization distributes the stove student households in india and elsewhere in the hood at a subsidized rate my lunch out again when the coop set up but now. That you have had the project for 3 years and vietnam has seen its benefits. And incentives improving they save a lot of time in the news in this time of life and i love that on the top of that and benefit is sacked and even a drop or an a. T. M. And few trees have been chopped down. This has a Huge Positive impact of us and the more i thought of her the love. Of those who lives in the village in neighboring shrug those made the switch with the help of a Community Led micro finance group many like her cant afford even the subsidized cost of 30 euros and need financial help.

Like sure that some 700000000 people in india continue to rely on solid fuel and traditional cookstove smoking Energy Poverty remains a major problem. Scientists as you the air pollution can even damage the brain tiny air pollutants may cost changes in the brain structure so what kind of substances are present in the plate lets have a. 9 out of 10 people worldwide breathe act containing high levels of pollutants according to the World Health Organization w h o. That has to do with for harmful substances particulate matter ozone night. Dioxide and sulfur dioxide. These absolute terms are mainly caused by industrial activity and traffic. But private households also contribute to air pollution around 3000000000 people around the world are dependent on dirty solid fuels for cooking such as wood charcoal or even waste. A fine particulate matter with a diameter of 2. 5 micrometers all smaller is especially dangerous as it can get deep into the lungs. Of the 100. 00 most affected cities worldwide more than half are in china and a 3rd in india. Pollution can be life threatening. The w. H. O. Attributes 24 percent of all deaths due to cardiovascular disease to air pollution. Every year 7000000 people die from diseases related to air pollution many of them live in poor countries women children and the infirm most affected. The United Nations wants to drastically cut the number of deaths caused by our pollution by the year 2030. This could be achieved in part through Sustainable Transportation such as more public transport and especially electric vehicles. And by significantly reducing emissions resulting from burning fossil fuels by switching to clean energy from renewable sources. Ever since we were little always been encouraged to go outside. And do one thing get some fresh air but not anymore in new delhi for example people live in a toxic for most of the winter months the it is much worse than the upper limit of whats considered hildy some schools in the city are trying to better the quality of air in their premises and clean their flight 2 point we visited once of school take a look. When a pollution mask is part of a Childs School uniform things must be bad. At the audio school in new delhi its compulsory to wear one. As the winter fog descends on delhi children Wearing Masks and an increasingly common sight. Poor air quality affects all aspects of life here. We are so polluted and its having a huge impact on the health of our students and from being the only Academic Institution we are one we are now becoming we have now having to actually think about how to sing and. A deadly combination of smoke from crop burning industrial pollution and unchecked emissions has under the title of the most polluted capital city in the world. School sports lessons now take place indoors. When the air quality index a. Q. I. M. Is poor older students feel responsible for the younger children safety. When being your eyes very high and it started by isabel then the children in their p. C. Lesson then any time come down to your ground floor in place of going out we play our games there are also more during this time were not advised to step out of the School Building all the gates and the windows are shut were told to stay inside where everybody fires up as internet.

Recovering every year the stubble bombing by farmers in north india is a major cause for air pollution affecting some of the biggest cities in india its clear the banning and filing solution is not quite working Creative Solutions for farmers are in high demand and the indian startup is working with farmers on the outskirts of delhi to reimagine the agro east lets see how. Winter is coming and the farmers of a small village in sunny but just spotty kilometers from new delhi are busy planting new crops. d at the end of the paddy harvest every year farmers in the northern states job often burn the crops that is left behind. Only limited by hand it will take around 8 to 10. And they would be higher labor costs and the process is very time consuming. 20000000. 00 tons of agricultural waste is burnt during this period causing a severe of equality in the region. Are going to become very watery. There are problems in a very and there was a lot of noise around us noisier than a lot of people were going aboard crop stubble boarding and pollution causing so reports really really going to. Their canard really how were going to mars and. Why you can hardly lose something when the crop stubble reds with you actually are born and called english. Korea labs was set up by uncle kumar. And that in 2014. Incubated at the Indian Institute of technology in delhi korea labs is working with farmers in how to honor and punjab to make crop residue profitable and prevent it from being burnt the startup has developed the technology to manufacture tableware like plates and balls from the crop stop which in its original form has no market value the end product is eco friendly and cheaper than its plastic counterparts. After collecting that a straw from the fields has to be job done and. Then it is the main where it will be washed the garden the sound that comes along with it will be washed over. So far the founders are doing most of the work on their own to clean the rice straw the use the normal washing machine. Some chemicals added in order to loosen the fibers. Then the rice straw esteemed and turned into a paste. The founders call the beast. This is what gets processed into table with. Labs is working on another innovation to decentralize operations and manufacturing and put the onus on farmers to recycle the crop arrestee. Our model is basically that. Machine will sell those small manufacturing owners who arent interested on the panels so there are people who have. Farms and they are willing enough to spend money. So the business. Will provide to them and whatever. Will buy back. Korea labs innovation could be one solution to the air pollution problem in india. Every one of us has a cup of tea daily which is made from a pile now if. You can. Read the market on the supply side of it so our technology. Will actually connect the. 2. And provide. The farmers as well. If the technology is adopted on a large scale 20000000. 00 tonnes of residue could be turned into eco friendly plates and bowls. Engineers and scientists around the world coming up with Creative Solutions on how to clean our air more frequently some of them are almost artistic and some get inspired by nature. Bubbling currents of water with micro spirulina swirling around in it. This was the alkie folliot expo in milan 2015 designed by the italian architects Marco Paoletti and cloudier per square all. The hollow structure was home to countless micro which function as photosynthesis machines they absorb c o 2 from the atmosphere and oxygenate the air in return the same team also collaborated on this curtain installation at the climate Innovation Summit in dublin last year each model captures about a kilo of c o 2 per day just doing the work of 20 large trees dirty city air enters at the bottom and comes in contact with alkie that store c o 2 molecules. And air pollutants freshly photosynthesize oxygen is released at the top of the facade into the air. Researchers at Oxford University have discovered that spiders web covered in a glue that attracts and keeps hold of electrically charged particles in the air. This could form the basis for a new technology to tackle air pollution. This 7 meter construction smog free tower by the social design lab of dutch artist and innovator dan rosegarden cleans the air around it it uses positive Ionization Technology to capture fine dust and transform it into course dust. It cleans 30000 cubic meters of power and uses a modest amount of green electricity. It provides a local solution for clean air in a radius of about 60 meters in public spaces. Towers have been tested in poland and china as well as the netherlands. Regulating traffic is one essential solution to improve quality in most cities the expansion of the board system has not quite kept up with the growing amount of traffic in the city of hamburg germany. Technology is now being used to veg unit and control the traffic in order to avoid congestion and to improve quality in a sustainable manner. As our cities become increasingly congested with more and more people on the move governments have to come up with new solutions to improve traffic flow and these days theyre digital this brand new software is helping hamburg to improve the coordination of its construction sites. Were very pleased weve had some astonishing results. The program is very intuitive its very similar to a smartphone or tablet. Anyone can use it its very own problematic im missing a big improvement in coordination as along at c. S. This software shows where a construction site is planned if it looks like the plans will cause traffic snarl ups building what can be postponed or opened with other projects. Beefed up for a lesson. In how bad traffic lights and signals are already coordinated digitally with technology that optimizes signal timing to create a succession of green lights the city buses the Traffic Control centers software shows how best to keep the rest of the traffic flowing in the mornings there are lots more cars and motorbikes heading into the city as opposed to out of it so signals a program to optimize traffic in that direction as were frighted to ficus was not up to me at. Hamburg is a pioneer in the field of Smart Mobility in 2021 the city will be hosting the Intelligent Transport SystemsWorld Congress over the next few years the local authorities will be taking action to ensure residents spend as little time as possible stuck in traffic is also a bit of your fertility the main focus is communication between traffic lights and cars signalling to motorists when lights are green before the green wave concept will be replaced by a system providing information on traffic lights including a crossroads. So that approaching cars dont have to stop and start. With the most dependable way to avoid traffic jams is by rail. Those who dont have a station on their doorstep can travel to and from one with 4 wheels. Hamburgs overhead rail system is also linked up to car sharing schemes. Is good moments and i have an app for hamburg that shows what public transport options are available where the nearest carsharing station is the nearest underground station overground station and the distances between them. Have been and outsourcing influenced and we want to create a platform where the entire process is seen to from leasing on to registering and paying. Long complex big and. The inhabitants of big cities need to be able to move about efficiently and also get along together. At the hamburg hafen City University researchers have developed digital models to analyze behavior patterns such as where people tend to congregate. New hope 1st of all we research how public squares work we track people who are out walking their dogs shopping hanging out to see how Public Places function and we collaborate with companies and other Research Institutes who also have an interest in Public Places working well and attracting people to know the things go to dog and office. Building contractors can therefore see if their projects meet criteria and compare potential sites in terms of advantages and disadvantages proximity to a Research Institute or an airport for example digitalisation give city dwellers new opportunities to enhance the urban experience.
