Challenging the government to intervention in effect on people on what was not at least on the actions of. Dick cheney or dick instead of the one who doesnt want to imagine. Every reporter is supposed to produce one story each month. Young people dont know what to do for you and even if they do you cant take initiative because they think that if they dont think the cat so the young porters gives us an opportunity to do that because it makes more young people aware about the Environmental Issues that were currently facing and it makes them want to take initiative and join us so i think thats why its very important. Job boards i trust cool because her parents leave find a way in the countryside for dina the students gather in the big hole to do their homework john is making progress with hunger story she doesnt put you on top of my regular school work but john i doesnt mind.

Young people are realizing that there was a very dumb least wild unless the adults get serious about dealing with the Climate Crisis all of other wild they are demanding action but they are not the only ones or the people want to get involved too in germany and mental going to a barking evening classes for the public on Climate Change and things ordinary people like you and i can do to make a diff. Climate strikes a good way to show governments the people want change but what else can we as individuals do to help reduce c o 2 emissions in Gemini People can take special evening classes to learn more about climate protection. Participants are able to develop their own plan of action in order to cut their carbon footprint. In terms of my ability that could mean driving and flying less. When it comes to heating and electricity a little goes a long way just turning the heat down by one degree makes a difference as do small adjustments at meal times like cutting down on meat consumption. Also apparently if we all ate less meat without having to give it up completely that would result in a huge reduction of c o 2 emissions that was helpful information. Just like the class was developed by Environmental Organizations and is now available in 36 german cities the workshop is spread over 6 evenings. Each of us can make a difference as one of our goals is to encourage the course participants to become eco ambassadors who not only make changes in their own lives but share information and encourage others to do the same. And at the end of the course the participants receive a fit for climate certificates and then its up to them to spread the word. And the how about you if youre also doing your bit tell us about it visit our website or send us a tweet. Doing your bit. We share your stories. Well. Do you do sell a feed hook line medicine if you get especially when it comes to electronic waste what do you do when youre done with your computer or your mobile phone there are reports that africa has become a dumping ground for most of the global in the west so what is being done in africa to change that a young nigerian has decided he doesnt want that anymore and he started doing something about it. Lagos nigeria is filmed to a number of illegal dump sites very waste for many local people the refuse is a vital link. Of the taking of poets t. V. s computers and other devices by hand they resell the components as rule materials its extremely hazardous work with and wall to and ground severely polluted by heavy metals and toxic chemicals some Electronic Devices come from developed countries in the form of the nations unfortunately only a fraction of food and functional the rest is affectively trash a company in lagos has come up with an alternative solution for handling the waste its called eat tara and was founded by if klein or tunnel my dear you generates 1000000 tons of our product way stock less of what it allows importation into the countries the difference between our treatment and the informal harmless if 100. 00 dont have the knowledge they dont have the tools all the machinery to safely to copple and dismantle the. Device. The terror collects discarded devices like laptops speakers and mobile phones which are then checked over at the companys Material Recovery facility those parts that can still be used i restored and mostly d. N. A. To this charity the rest is dismantle the terror has invested in the range of machinery it allows the workers to dismantle the waste in a way that is safe for the environment and for themselves and exhaust hood is used to contain the toxic feed. Your very not you can have so many carcinogenic materials that are truck sucked out and trapped trapped inside its our diminishing search affectively detoxified while we dismantle all of the glass all of the on a 1000000.

Business has been going well for the company so well that the c. E. O. Plants expand operations in the near future and his happy that the items he recycles will not end up on the legal dont sites like this one. Carbon dioxide is a major contributor to Global Warming but did you know the gas can be a valuable resource scientists have developed ways to capture c o 2 from power plants and factories that would otherwise escape into the air and they are putting it to good use for example to boost plant growth in greenhouses we had to the netherlands to meet some gardeners who are welcoming the initiative. Glass far as the eye can see. This is a ruse Breeding Company in the netherlands. C o 2 is pumped into these 2 huge greenhouses to help the flowers grow better. The head of the Family Business since the investment is paid off. To look almost through the leaves and when the leaves are dark and dark green then we know the leaves are. The flower we always look at the size because i wake at the size whether the selling the business has to work very efficiently with high tech heating and cooling systems automatic irrigation and fertilization. But whats really special is the c o 2 ventilation equipment. Coming out of this pipe over here. And. On the question. And out of the bible says coming to see you through. The air inside is in reach. Carbon dioxide c o 2 eighths photosynthesis and spares plant growth the Company Harvest 8000 roses a day. The gases brought in virus subterranean pipeline from rotterdam. Now and again the supply of cools by. Bloomberg has 600 greenhouses on his books. The crops fetch the balls cut flowers growing greenhouses they used to get a better product traditionally they used to fuel gases from natural gas burning. And stop using the natural gas and create even better products. The Carbon Dioxide comes from the port of rotterdam from one of the Worlds Largest Oil Refineries 400000 barrels of oil a process each day and hundreds of thousands of tons of c o 2 generated each year as a byproduct. Ok up or organic c o 2 for assimilation by plants we use is some of that. The company has a plant in the dutch poort and supplies half a 1000000 tons of c o 2 to greenhouses so do the suit or its coming from or from the shell or refinery 3 its transported to our facility fire the service pipeline. In the past the greenhouses have to produce the Carbon Dioxide themselves by burning natural gas. The use of recycled c o 2 means that they save huge amount of the fossil fuel the greenhouses are the one who benefits maybe even the most they can replace the use of environmental polluting natural gas by taking shoot to from industry so they are saving the environment saving a little bit. And they can use on top of dead more c o 2 to grow even better tomatoes and better thats why our. Roots grow is no longer need a combustion plant to produce c o 2. That means they can concentrate more on that cool business. My family started 40 years ago and we start that theyve been a Small Company and me grow a big big and now we produce in one year about 40000000 stems. The company is booming thanks to Carbon Dioxide commercial greenhouse gardens realized this problem of gas can also be a valuable resource. Now what a great idea to reuse you its you i keep it out of the atmosphere well heres another one this time from san diego an invasive weed has been spreading fast and of course in chaos there but some farmers are found a way to turn this past into an asset. For this senegalese pharma clarin out weeds has become a lifeline. Tof a plant in order to provide his village with a precious commodity few. We make try for charcoal we also use it for the roofs of our houses and enclosures for the animals.

Iraq now knows he can turn the weed into a year round income after joining a cooperative run by women in a nearby village and once the bundles are dried gian takes them to the top of a charcoal Processing Plant and the women take over.

Would discuss because villages in this region of cut down almost all the trees were used as fuel. Is a sustainable answer for cooking in a place where electricity and gas out of reach for most santa go doesnt only use tougher charcoal it turns out the weed is a perfect material for a cooling waterproof roof to. Abraham was racking his brains to think of a senegalese alternative to the catch reefs he had seen in europe the answer was right on there is no use. To people really brutally i have ahead of time for sure i put in my suitcase a ticket to france to show them the said was possible and so it started. In a bill to school and holmes from his touched heart and has overseen training of the local artisans to take the method back to the villages around 15 men have become traditional factions through the program. But of myanmar grandmother bravura the process. We were to of course less the traditional stroll also allows us to circulate in the hot season that by. Going through. Our trash roofs can last 20 or 30 years. But usually entrepreneurs. In the region pressing by Climate Change and ravaged by different sation cooking on tougher charcoal under its hard for relief has given the village a sustainable means of tackling Serious Problems for as long as tougher thrives along senegals largest river group people can take this nuisance plant into their own hands and build their future with it. Its amazing but almost a 1000000000 people still dont have access to reliable supply of electricity that means they have a hard Time Lighting their homes starving food using all charging their phones all the internet and so on are improves the quality of life. It does indeed and weve all got a sense for in a just to suffer many homes in africa need in the hope all the solutions daylight is a Global Social enterprise that makes us all a product of all changing lives in kenya the stick on the. Radio. The charging station. Im like this these are all now Standard Features in favor karim is home to many other households in the area still rely on kerosene lamps which are dangerous and on healthy. Favor karim regenerates or electricity from solar panels she has a small home grid. She had the panels installed after seeing some on a neighbors house when i didnt its a big change before we were paying 55 shillings a day for electricity wed have power for a while and then it would be cut off but with the solar panels when we pay 55. 00 shillings days on. End so we have enough light to get the children ready all morning on its on all the time. Now weve got to. Creamy other husband are paying for the Solar Energy System in installments every month they use a mobile phone to transfer of the equivalent of 15 euros in 8 months it will be paid off. Although more than 70 percent of kenyans have access to electricity in semi rural areas like here and only 40 percent do. But just as elsewhere electricity has become essential to daily life. To close the gap a Company Called de life has set up stores around kenya that sell solar products for homes and small businesses. Esther new york runs one of the stores she Sells Everything from lamps to t. V. s and solar home systems. Today one of her technicians is going to install a system on the outskirts of could jato. John as a local pastor he decided to equip his new home with a Solar Energy System. So the technician explains how it works it can be installed in just a few hours. By contrast getting connected to the public grid can take months and in just 2 years well have the environmentally friendly system paid off. Full of electricity. And is 10 percent the rate. So this one. Is the quickest to me of getting to the light it up to 30 is not. Something that was really in the know. In this area and i need from the front of the town sometimes we are going to miss it when life was not. The lights canyon offices are located in nairobi cofounder ned toes and has come from the u. S. To discuss future strategies for africa the social entrepreneur is now focusing on helping people who have recently lost access to energy sources. It is an injustice that you have 1300000000 people in the world who still burn kerosene for lighting when the light bulb was invented more than 100 years ago this doesnt make sense and we set a goal of getting 100000000 people off kerosene by 2020 and weve actually achieve that goal as of january 2020. Technologies like mobile banking have made it easy for d. Like to establish itself in kenya its the worlds 2nd biggest market for solar energy after india. Chosen and his colleagues are now hoping to expand into other markets in africa so were seeing a real change in awareness in general in the Public Sector with governments around what distributed solar energy can do and how if were going to provide universal Energy Access solar is going to be a critical part of that equation. Favor careen the small solar grid means that she no longer has to buy electricity tokens on her children have enough like to see one theyre drawing the Clean Energy Source even power as a security lies in her front yard it helps deter thieves of nice to have that happen in the evenings we leave the outside light on and all our things are safe that even if we leave the washing outside because when the lights on people cant tell if were at home or not. Access to solar power has made her familys life a lot easier and unlike other sources the suns energy will always be there. Thats a very cool indeed bringing electricity to People Living in remote areas i hope youve enjoyed these workshops it is a time for me to say goodbye i am tsonga here in company in gun death and of course i look forward to seeing you once again very soon.
