Participants are able to develop their own plan of action in order to cut their carbon footprint. In terms of mobility that could mean trying things and flying less. When it comes to heating and elektra city 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. Because it was developed by Environmental Organizations and is now available in 36 german cities the workshop is spread over 6 evenings. Must come you know and im going to each of us can make a difference as one of our goals is to encourage the course all 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 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. Athene talk line at a certificate 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 no one in the west so what is being done in africa to change that a young nigerian has decided he doesnt want about anymore and he started doing something about. Lagos nigeria is filmed to a number of illegal dump sites very waste for many local people the refuse is a vital source of income of the taking of poets t. V. s computers and other devices by hand they resell the components as Raw Materials its extremely hazardous work with the air water 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 functional the rest is effectively trash a company in lagos has come up with an alternative solution for handling the waste its called eat tara and was founded by its line or tunnel. Generates 1000000 tons of earth on its way stock worth of what it allows importation into the country the difference between our treatment and the informal harmless if 100 dont have the knowledge they dont have the tools all the machinery to safely take off 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 for 30 those parts that can still be used 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 waste in a way that is safe for the environment and for themselves and exhaust hood is used to contain the toxic field. You cannot lead you can have so many Customer Journey materials that are trapped or sucked out and trapped trapped inside the machine so it effectively detoxified while we dismantle all of the glass and all of the other many of.

Business has been going well for the company so well that the c. E. O. Plans to expand operations in the near future and hes 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 theyre putting it to good use for example to boost plant growth in greenhouses we had to the netherlands to meet some goddess who are welcoming the initiative. Glasses far as the eye can see. This is a ruse Breeding Company in the netherlands. C o 2 is pumped into these 2 shoots greenhouses to help the flowers grow better. The head of the Family Business since the investment has paid off. The local wash the leaves and when the leaves are dark and dark green then we know. How many 1000000 to the. We always look at the size. Of the size. 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. The pressure. Of the bible succumbing to. The air inside is in reach with Carbon Dioxide c o 2 aids photosynthesis and spurs 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. And the crops fetch the balls cut flowers are grown in greenhouses they used to get a better product traditionally they used to fuel gases from natural gas burning. They can stop using an eco gas and create even better products. The Carbon Dioxide comes from the port of rotterdam from one of the Worlds LargestOil Refineries 400000 barrels of oil a processed 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. Its coming from a from the shell or refinery 3 its transported to our facility fired by by. In the past the greenhouses had to produce the Carbon Dioxide themselves by burning natural gas. The use of recycled c o 2 means that they save a huge amount of the fossil fuel the greenhouses are the one who benefits maybe even the most they can replace the use of environment polluting natural gas by. They can shoot to from industry so they are saving the of i meant saving a little bit. And they can use all top of that more shoe to to grow even better tomatoes and better at the flowers. The 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 grow a big big and now we produce in one year about 40000000 stems. The companys booming thanks to Carbon Dioxide commercial greenhouse gardens realized this problem gas can also be a valuable resource. Now what a great idea to reduce c o 2 i keep it out of the atmosphere well heres another one this time from san diego an invasive weed has been spreading fast and in chaos there but some farmers are found a way to turn this past into an os that for this senegalese farmer clarin out weeds has become a lifeline. To the g. M. Plant in order to provide his village with a precious commodity feel. We make time for charcoal we also use it for the roofs of our houses and enclosures for the animals.

Its a big change before we were paying 55. 00 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 have 55. 00 shillings days on. End so we have enough light to get the children ready on the morning its on all the time. Now. Creamy and her 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.

Technologies like mobile banking have made it easy for de light to a stop to it self 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 karim a small solar grid means that you no longer has to buy electricity tokens on her children have enough like to see when theyre drawing. The Clean Energy Source even powers a security light in her front yard it helps deter thieves of nice.
