On the show, irans president Hassan Rouhani blames israel for the assassination of a Top Nuclear Scientist and balance revenge. Western intelligence official suspected send result of being the mastermind of a secret nuclear bomb making program. And in the bundesliga, the battle for the leaders politics tight this season. Well see if any of the top 3 teams slipped up on saturdays american evanston. Its good to have you with us in the french capital, paris police and protesters have clashed at demonstrations against a proposed security bill that would restrict sharing images of Police Officers. The proposed law all came into focus after a full that emerged, a French Police beating. And racially abusing a black man. Protesters say if the new law is passed, it could prevent similar footage from being released to the public, allowing police to get away with misconduct. The streets of central paris filled with protesters. For many, the focus of their opposition is the security bills close 24. 00. It makes it a crime to publish a photo or video of a Police Officer online that could harm does officer. Frances government says the clause would shield police from abuse online. Critics say its undermined Civil Liberties and i doubt he obviously the ban on recording or dealing video of police a not to be able to film what has happened. That is an attack on press freedom by somebody to specify whats going on in france seems extremely worrying and serious to me. And we cannot let this happen if theres been opposition to the bill for some time. But its the emergence of this video that spurred its growth Security Camera footage of police in paris attacking a black man, a music producer in his own studio. The use of apparently one warranted brute force by the police, led to accusations of systemic racism in its ranks. There was some unrest at the demonstration in paris with small groups of masks, people building barricades. But the vast majority demonstrated peacefully the marches in paris and around france indicate there was a lot of anger at the bill. The question is, how will the government of french president emmanuel mccrone react now by person ahead with the bill as it is for watering it down . Lets bring in. Lisa lewis, whos standing by for us in paris. Hello to you lisa. So we understand youve been out at the demonstration today, we did see some images of fires and tear gas being used on the protesters. What else can you tell us . Well, there were some clashes between what we think are troublemakers people dressed in black and with who had these actually on their head and they were attacking or what it looked like. They were attacking the Police Forces and the police have been responding to that. But there were also thousands of thousands of thousands and thousands of peaceful demonstrators here in paris in tens of thousands, in other cities across the country and from all sorts of backgrounds have been talking to teachers, to students, to musicians and also to journalists who turned up to defend what they think is the freedom of the press. One journalist told me that she was actually afraid to show up at this demonstration, shes been demonstrating all her life since, since she was little. But with this new law that could come into force. She now no longer feel safe, and she said that she would only stay at the beginning of the demonstration and then leave and go home because she feared to get caught up in the violence and that, you know, without being able to feel more in the future that would be more of a threat to her in the future at least. Now listen, to what extent though, is this protest, in fact, part of a bigger movement, a bigger protest against a man against his government. We did see a number of yellow vests demonstrators taking part of them. You also mention a wide variety of people. Where does this fit in into the Bigger Picture of frustration in france . Well, many people here are feeling that the government that im on my car is moving further to the right. There are few other laws on the table that will be will go through parliament in the, in the near future. Especially one actually on separatism on a, you know, the values of the republic has as its core now are supposed to crack down on, on islam isnt. And many people feel that hes doing a lot to strengthen security to strengthen the powers of the police, but not enough to protect against discrimination against racism. And they feel that that might actually be a tipping point. And the government might give so much so many powers to police that in the future if there were a far right of, you know, an extremist government in place that government might be able to use these laws and these rules against the population. So they feel that its really important to stand up now and prevent this from happening. Lisa lu is reporting from paris. Thank you so much. Irans leaders are blaming israel for the killing of the countrys chief Nuclear Scientist and value revenge. Western Israeli Intelligence services have long identified as the mastermind of iran secret Nuclear Weapons program. And Israeli Government has refused to comment on the killing. Meanwhile, germany has called on all sides to show restraint and avoid escalating tensions that could derail talks with iran on nuclear issues. A group of hardliners in tehran venting their anger at the assassination of the countrys Top Nuclear Scientist, mohsin factories a day. They hold the u. S. And israel responsible for the killing, and a calling for irans retaliation to be swift and heart. President has some new warning, was also quick to blame israel and said tehran will avenge the death, but only when it sees fit. He told a meeting of the governments that as he put it, all the enemies of islamic iran know that the iranian nation and officials are too brave and zealous to ignore this criminal act. The relevant authorities respond to this crime in a timely and appropriate manner. For terror around the loss of factories a day is a blow. He was said to be the architect of the countrys Nuclear Energy program. Western security agencies believe that from 1900 to 2003, his research was focused on the development of an atomic bomb. Iran has always denied such allegations, but israel claimed as recently as 2018 that he was leading a project to build a nuclear weapon. No one has admitted to carrying out the attack. But observers say bears the hallmarks of a targeted assassination. With multiple gunmen opening fire chief vehicle and also reports of explosions, the defense minister offered condolences to his widow. She echoed the words of the countrys leaders saying his work must continue, and iran would never back down. Lets get a check now of some of the other stories making news this hour. If the o. P. s military says its taken full control of mckayla, the capital of the region, the army says it ceased its offensive and is now hunting for the leaders of the teak, rive Peoples Liberation front. It comes after weeks of conflict which has left tens of thousands of refugees in dire conditions. Thousands of people have held an antiabortion rally in the argentinian capital. Abortion is illegal in argentina, except under limited circumstances, such as a risk to the life of the mother. Earlier in november, the argentinian government said it would introduce a bill giving women access to abortion services. In india, thousands of farmers have blocked one of delhis busiest roads as they demand the government scrapped recent agricultural reforms. The government says the changes create a free market for grain. Farmers say they fear the reforms will push down the price of crops and benefit. Big corporations. Pope francis has installed 13 new cardinals to the catholic church. Be include wilton, gregory, the archbishop of washington, d. C. Hes the 1st africanamerican cardinal. The pontiff has now a pointed 95. 00, new cardinals. They form a majority among those who will someday elect his successor. Well, most Political Parties are holding their conventions virtually this year as a result of the global pandemic. But not the far right alternative for Germany Party known as the dean. Hundreds of delegates attended their convention in person on saturday. Some may have been members are outspoken. Critics of the german governments pandemic measures. And believe the coronavirus restrictions in place are endangering livelihoods and limiting fundamental freedoms. Ok, if the members respecting distancing measures and wearing masks, even if many here dont like it. More than 500. 00, delegates were in attendance, as were officers to maintain order. The focus of the convention was meant to be on pensions and on to finding new policies. But if tiko party leader york mitten ended up ponying in on something completely different, he criticized provocations from within his own party regarding the coronavirus crisis. Is very, is it really wise to speak of a coronavirus dictatorship . We dont live in a dictatorship, otherwise we would hardly be able to hold this Party Conference. He also cautioned members against getting tied in with groups that consider the virus to be a conspiracy. If you will not achieve more success by being more aggressive course and uninhibited, that is not the way to do it. Martin fears losing middle class votes. The reactions at the Party Conference were divided. Attorney shouted, he brought up our weak spot. This is the current problem we face within the party in apartheid the scene of a play. For me, it was astonishing that you have made to strongly criticize the party. And the factions, he hardly said anything about social or pensions policy, because were here to hold a pensions conference and not in a fashion conference. The Biggest Issue for the f. T. Remains the ongoing debate about what the partys future direction should be. In the german bundesliga, the top 3 sides were all in action. In saturdays early matches, the title contenders showed some tired legs. After all of them were in action, mid week in Champions League matches. Dortmund were on the back foot early against cologne. Just 9 minutes in headed enough to being completely on mark for a corner and dortmund again left ski rian marked after a corner in the 2nd half a calamitous defensive performance. As the hosts were twice caught napping. At the back post told ghana sa did pull one back as the hosts ramped up the pressure in the closing stages. But early on hold and was then uncharacteristically wasteful. As he fluffed his lines late on allowing cologne to claim their 1st win of the season. Just like dortmund by him went behind early as stuttgart hit them on the break with a lightning quick counter on the 20 minute mark. Silas were among the 2 cats setting up tongue coulibaly, but the reigning champions hit back before half time. Kingsley commom slotting in this effort after 38 minutes before then turning provider to robert levin dusky on the stroke of half time. The polish strike, a smashing in his 12th goal of the just 8 matches. Cost of put on the finishing touch as he made it 31 with just 3 minutes left to play. His effort remarkably similar to bynes 1st. As they stay top of the league leipsic were the only of the 3 contenders to start brightly their man in form and hill in yo got his 4th goal of the season and is looking more like a strike a than a wing back. Bielefeld then cost themselves a 2nd, just one minutes after the break. Danny omo pressing high up the pitch, was able to find half time substitute christopher, for an easy finish. The hosts have the leagues meanest defense, but did concede warm slates own as be the field captain. Fabiana cool scored his 1st book to sleep. A goal having been the 2nd divisions, top scorer last season, like 6, remain hot on by his heels in 2nd. All right, lets take a look at all the bundesliga results so far as weve just seen by our munich were too much for stood guard. It was a poor result for hoes, dortmund against cologne, leipzig beat bielefeld when young berlin in frankfurt finished all square work and freiburg also ended in a draw for a simonson bloodbath thrashed shall come on friday. Voss for a big bet of braman in an 8 goal thriller. And on sunday had to berlin travel to play live her cousin and minds will battle it out with hoffenheim. Youre up to date now on t. W. American abstain from meat and the entire news team spirit for a live. Thanks for the company. Literature invites us to see people in particular, to see some fine structure and growth. Right over your books on youtube. The fight against the corona virus pandemic has the rate of infection been developing. Measures are being taken. Just the latest Research Says information and context. The coronavirus a special monday to friday, w. Well, speech be the new intersection between humans and technology. Even twitter is setting its hopes on audio messaging. Now, even twitter is setting its hopes on audio messaging. Now, how well does most recognition work, and what else does our voice reveal about us . Voice, command, and voice analysis. Our topic today on shit, asking the french for recipes, talking to your g. P. S. Or turning off the lights with your voice. Turn off the lights, Digital Assistants using voice command, infiltrating our day to day lives, but why always so keen on them canis is a fan and his berlin based startup. The oval has developed an open source platform that anyone can use to Program Voice apps, which work on all devices. And thats what i find fascinating about. Voice is how natural this type of interaction is when she comes in by even a 3 year old child can ask for a specific song, although i cant read it, you know, im not going outside to tell, you know, and then theres the older generation who never quite felt understood by technology you yet still, i know all of a sudden they see more free interacting with tech. And this had never quite worked before. This example shows just how much its already possible. The 2 people dont speak the same language, but they can still communicate thanks to smart Speech Software, which they was going to let about for such a you know, for the im looking for a place to have lunch before going to the airport. Theres a great place around the corner. You can take the train from there to the airport. Are you going to get out . Wait, that allays pay now with this the marriage . Is that yes, they later put it down. But its not as easy as the advertisement might have you believe. I know this from my own family. My father speaks german with an accent, and the Speech Recognition Technology of the Remote Control often struggles to understand his commands. This has to do with who developed the algorithms and crucially with who didnt pashto and yelling speech impediment dialects, different cultural backgrounds. There are many people who dont sound like the average Silicon Valley coder developer who come european and there are often comprehension problems. Its all tyros out also just from differences between genders, soft women are frequently understood less well than lead. For example, these differences are largely due to the data used to train voice algorithms. The Typical Software developer is a white man who speaks english. In the beginning, developers use their own voices to train the voice assistance, a circumstance which still has consequences to this day. No voice assistant, whether produced by amazon or google, apple i. B. M. Or microsoft will understand every word. But the error rates fall notable patterns. A study by stanford university, for example, found a 35 percent error rate for africanamericans, as opposed to 19 percent for white americans, even though english is the standard language for voice systems. Many languages cant be used at all. Just 8 work across platforms for amazon, google and apple. The Google Smartphone assistant is the most ive ever seen. It speaks 44 languages, but generally the rule for all devices is minorities are not certain time or treatment. If you lend and in many countries, all theres no Speech Software us off because the demand just isnt worth investing in at the most. Im here. So speech Recognition Systems dont work the same for everyone. Plus, lets not forget that there are people with speech impediments and people who cannot speak or hear. A German Research project has developed the 1st tour that enables Speech Software to recognize sign language. Research is also focusing on going beyond the strict sense of for its meanings. After all, its not just what someone says, but also how they say it that plays a big role in comprehension. This is a speck intriguing for companies, as they hope to find out more about their customers. Im in a great time today. I know it takes only a few words to hear what kind of mood a person is it, whether theyre happy for angry ai program can filter out 6000 parameters from someones voice, including pitch and tambor. Developers from the start up, my dear and munich, are hoping that their smart voice analysis, one, able to sneak a peek into peoples hearts. The software has already been tested in call centers, where it has been used something coming calls to analyze the callers, as well as the Staff Members is this useless distance for control. Using the software, i felt as if i were automatically looking at things from the outside model. When i was in that i thought about the customer a lot more happy customers are loyal customers and Companies Want to keep it that way. But theyre also critical voices in increasing creating voice space profiles is problematic when you get detached, lecture and digital ethics. And its going to be a lot about my mood or my house phone bill was fixed. Those are very sensitive private status, and when they should be, i know im surrounded companies and at least not so long as i have not given my explicit consent. But thats what Companies Want to find out as much as possible about their customers from their voices. Since 2018, amazon has a patent on effort ties meant for people with illnesses or conditions. In other words, alexa is supposed to tell from a persons voice whether theyre ill or even depressive, and then recommend products accordingly. But how is it that this technology can work to speak . We need our entire body, the longs, the trachea and the larrys with its vocal cords in total, more than 100. 00 muscles, a part of creating sound and several parts of the brain too. And that the reason why our voice can reveal Important Information about illnesses like parkinsons compared to a healthy persons voice of someone with parkinsons voice was some chappie. 7 7 young showed up as a Computer Scientist into steamer working on detecting parkinsons disease. And its very early stages. You know, if you can are concerned theres a neurodegenerative disorders. It which specifically attacks the motor functions of the ghost. Or since it can be detected some very early on the muscle, which we have here, you generate sounds and voices in concert in the future. It may also be possible to detect other conditions like autism, depression, or currently cope with 19 through voice analysis. Incredible, whats become possible with Artificial Intelligence and digital voice analysis. But its worth bearing in mind that this technology also comes with wrists back in 2017. The canadian startup lie a bird, cause a stir with manipulated voices of politicians like donald trump and barack obama. I am not a robot. My engine nation is always different. Im not a robot. My information is always different. Well, that doesnt really sound bad real. Is that why a bird has since then been bought and now its part of a software for transcribing and creating pod casts. The integrated ai makes it possible to edit the voice recordings. After you have finished recording like this, for example, i should probably get in shape this year. Ive changed this quickly. I should probably watch t. W. Ship this year. That sounds pretty good already, but it only works on line and so far, only in english, but the technology is developing rapidly. Take the example of this french company, which is already working on manipulating voices in real time. French software company, candy voice has specialized in cloning boys. Since he home on of well off, youll do our technology can synthesize a voice with just 80 words. We can then let that persons voice say whatever it wants to the porter to demonstrate the way the Software Works. The voice experts need samples. Im going cochrans Football Team achieved the expected results. 500 sentences contain all the typical sounds of German Defense familiar clips. And in the early afternoon hours in southeast china, an algorithm disassembles the recordings of the small fragments. The meaning of the words is completely irrelevant here. What the program is after is the sound of the individual fragments so that it has numerous sound bites from both speakers. Now the algorithm can start comparing the fragments, thereby also comparing the tambour of both voices. The more words are given to the algorithm, the better it can train on its own. Once training is complete, the software should be able to convert every sentence spoken by the male voice into the female voice and vice versa. But how well does the Software Work . Can voices be manipulated life and im already on a, im 29 years old and im from germany. Im speaking in maxs voice and it sounds very real. This conference a mish knob. I was pretty close to what i recorded voice sounded like mckenna and the other way around. I macs, but im speaking an area known as voice right now. Thats pretty convincing. But also quite a weird feeling. Pretty impressive, but it doesnt sound good enough to really be able to deceive you. Scientists are working on using the human voice as a type of passport. The idea behind that is that register customers would be immediately recognized by their voice when they call a growing number of companies, including european banks watch for a place Identity Verification for security questions, fingerprints and pins with voice i think to cash in on this as a pawn, hold for the institute and dom start in southwest germany. Project head on q. Is testing such a voice id system minded. My voice is my password. To a company, for instance, a bank has his voice samples just as they would for a customer. The companys software created a biometric profile from his voice sample with more than 100, identifying characteristics such as pitch or rhythm lynched. And when logging in be a voice, the program compares the voice speaking with the stored profile. If they match, the customers granted access. But what if somebody uses a digitally manipulated voice, kenai, or birds or similar programs have not yet reached a level of protection to be able to accurately recreate a vocal melody and all the characteristics of a human beings voice. But not all experts are convinced voice verification systems are safe to air and see a current way i see voice is an interesting addition. Its just, its not just concepts, its interest. Now i wouldnt use my voice for banking and so on and survive. But actually in the studio, and i just know that technology is only just Getting Started on the home so at their wrist, well, doubts. But despite these, the tech giants, he voice, command and analysis as the next major intersection between humans and machines. And the technology has already made it into our homes. Researchers expect that before long, our whole apartment or house will be equipped with microphones and speakers. So that smart speakers might even become redundant. I have to say that i have some concerns about this. To mean my apartment is generally a really private place, and i dont want to feel like someone or something is listening to me when im at home. But what do you think about this . What do you use voice command for . Let us know on you tube or facebook. I buy and see you soon. Turning trash into treasure is a massive challenge. Even if we should know better, the amount of electronic waste produced worldwide is greater than ever before and what could the Solutions Look Like . Were in now most of all we need to gets Climate Change. We decided to get picked up. Household client alternative uses africa become scarce. Climate change has put traditional agriculture under massive pressure all over the world. Researchers are searching for solutions. Can high tech songs help secure our future . 30 minutes on d, w to bring you more conservation. How do we make signals, greener . How can we protect habitats . We can make a difference. The ideas fundamental series of them global 3000. 00 on g. W. And all mine did you know that in 29 war than 50000000 tons of electronics did the want, but sadly, hardly any of it was recycled . Well, welcome to this special edition of focusing on electronic waste. I am here in ugandas capital come and i am now coming to you from nigerias Federal Capital territory. Yes. Electronic waste is definitely an issue that needs solving in search of answers. We traveled across africa and europe. Heres a look at whats coming up on the show today. South africa looks for ways to enable countries to mine, Precious Metals from military waste. In germany, we follow the debate on electronic ways devices and what theyre calling the right to repair and in their own design, our matilde, our pain, shows us how one persons trash really ease another persons treasure. What happens to be environment when we fail to use our resources sustainably . At the major theme here on eco africa where we try to present not just the problems, but some possible solutions to. Today we turn the spotlight on electrical and electronic waste, meaning this crowded refrigerator, cell phones, Televisions Computers and things like that. But 1st, here are some facts about the impact on the planet. From consistent to kitchen, t. V. s and smart phones every year we throw away more and more electrical appliances. According to a u. N. Report, the world produced over 53000000 tons of electronic waste in 2019 equivalent in weight to 350 cruise line. This year, it was the area with the highest volume in per capita income growth, urbanization and increased mobility leading to a constant increase in demand for electronic products. Many of them have a very short life span. As a result, the waste is growing faster than any other kind of refuse just 17. 4 percent of the waste was recycled. A sizeable proportion of phased out, elektra made products are exported illegally and end up on unregulated landfills, dumps and scrap yards in eastern europe, asia, and africa. The un assumes that the vast majority of nonrecyclable waste is not disposed of appropriately. Electronic waste contain significant amounts of Hazardous Substances that contaminate the land and water and can cause Serious Health problems. Up to 50 tons of the highly toxic heavy metal mercury are released into the environment every year. Theyre joined by chemicals that are used to cannibalize old equipment, 2019 also saw a major increase in the number of discarded and Conditioning Systems and refrigerators. There just those who cools the release of around 98000000 tons of Greenhouse Gases into the atmosphere. Devices also contain valuable metals such as i and many im as well as gold and rarer in total. The value of Natural Resources in a waste last year amounted to 57000000000. 00 us dollars only a small fraction of annual waste is recycled. This means that the quantity of extract it to keep up with ever increasing consumer demand continues to grow shoulder. A problem that we need to perhaps than mining could help. Its an expression ari 1st, in the process of recovering valuable metals, mechanical and chemical treatment. That doesnt just apply for i am a copper these days you find some very rare metals in your Electronic Devices, which is right. And in cities, you often find huge quantities of electronic Waste Recycling. These materials saves time and money and it is much better for the environment at the university of cape town. One professor wants to introduce that idea, not just in south africa, but across the entire continent with its resembles a meat grinder, but this machine grinds subcircuits broods instead of pork. Beef is sent to the spot of an innovative Research Project in south africa. Finding out how to recycle the precious bits of circuits broods can do when judging peterson from the university of cape town, figured out anyway, we were trying to flush the Circuit Board so that we can access the in the lives of the copper that sandwiched in between these layers within the board access in the metals like copper, all move valuable. Gold is difficult and costly. Most of south africas eat waste is purses to overseas by companies that operate. Huge ferns is also a realisation that we have in south africa. A lot of people who just collect a few boards and take them to recycle, just crush them up and since them overseas. And we said walk, we processed material here, create jobs with that, the challenge for the scientists finding a method that works at a smaller scale and price point. That also does not contaminate the environment. They developed a Chemical Extraction process for copper. A fiend, ammonia solution trickles through to ground 0 circuits. Over the course of several days, the solution extracts the compound, indicated by the blue coloring. The a menu mixture can be used several times which makes it even more environmentally friendly. The concept of recovering brad metals from electronic waste is called urban mining. Like many african countries, south africa only recycles a minority of its waste. So far more than 50 percent of it and sub in landfills or as in the case of waste is shipped overseas. Monitoring waste streams experts say is one key incentive to up recycling . You wouldnt recycle wise just for the goodness of god. The people who need to earn an income ideally make it at least a small profit on it. And so the idea is to say what is valued as material. So if you can extract a value, then it is worthwhile taking small and medium skill businesses such as Circuit Board manufacturer tracks where the Research Project is set up, could make a profit while reducing waste. There is a social responsibility for all businesses to try to look at the ways to produce and Circuit Board manufacturer saying, look, you know, boards that end up in products that become obsolete. How does one recycle them . You can really use them. But if you can reclaim the copper from them, then the commercial very in the moment you can give something a commercial value preventive ending up in a landfill. The idea of the Waste Recycling project was developed here to hide your mythology lad of the university. Currently, the team is still in the Research Phase through day terkel lection. They want to refine and demonstrate the effectiveness of the Chemical Extraction. Not only for copper, also a little retrieve in gold, of parts from lower energy in such a costs. The method has another, and what excites me about this project is the fact that we are trying to develop technology for our local in uses for the african case where were dealing with very low volumes of electronic waste relative to what other countries handle but still being able to buy Green Technologies that can help us recover from it without doing much harm to our environment. In cape towns Industrial Area judgement peterson visits a local recycling company that is still exporting eve waste. Peterson is looking for new good material. Up until now, the resurgence of used identical model foods to make results comparable in future. The method has to work for any type of circuits. The project could reach pilots face by 2022. The approach is not limited to south africa. The scientists are convinced it is transferable to every other country on the continent to europe. Now, if youre struggling to repair on household appliances, but is broken, do not worry, you are not alone. They are sometimes surprisingly difficult to fix. One problem is that a lot of modern machines and other devices cant be repaired, not even by professionals. In many cases, products are designed to wear out after certain period of time. This is expensive for the consumer and a waste of valuable resources and energy. So the right to repair movement is growing in many countries. We joined a global gathering of repairers, tinkerers, and activists in germany. Take a look. Electronic goods are the Fastest Growing waste stream in the world. In less than a decade, the lifespan of a television in germany dropped from more than 10 years to less than 6. Of the best ways is the ways that you dont produce. But when you look into the container, you see is a really old laundry. Machines are some really old dishwashers, which i could not be repaired which consume so much energy, then makes sense to have a new one. For example, can be repaired, has discarded in products account for less than 10 percent of all municipal waste in the european union. But extracting the rare earth metals used in many devices typically requires sulphuric acid and create small, toxic waste. Activists like your highness to do a calling for a radical change. The social costs and environmental cost a completely externalize, theyre not integrated into the price. Thats why Raw Materials of every 2. 00. Another important aspect of the debate is the planned obsolescence of half products. The american bernard london came up with this time in 1932. He thought it would be a good way to boost the economy because it would force customers to buy more all the article when its incredibly flawed, because what were seeing is a type of innovation that actually does not put meat on the planet, nor people at the center who call valerie is a cofounder of the restart project, a u. K. Based organization that supports repair initiatives. The European Commission has recently ratified a new set of regulations that will make repairing easier from 2021. It will force manufacturers to make spare parts available to repair shops, but crucially not to customers. Now, that doesnt make any sense, and thats why people want a rio right. So its not something that is designed to limit what people care, but the pressure is mounting for, right to repair, based on 3 key pillars. First, access to spare parts for all of the products for everyone. Secondly, to access to repair manuals and start to sign up products so that very easy to take apart. While our devices are increasingly complex, the solution to the problem doesnt have to be a comprehensive right to repair, has the potential to benefit both the customers and the environment. Staying with the theme of repairing and reusing, we head back to africa now. Runner is one of the leading nations here on the continent for digital technology. But the increased use of a look for nick devices has also led to a massive increase in waste. Now with the help of the was bank, the one in Government House opened a state of the, the west dismantling recycling facility. In addition to benefiting the environment. It also created jobs. And given that you to kitchen system, to each of the 450 pupils in this school in biggest sarah really does have a lot to fulfill us. Not all of those and many are recycled older models which breakdown get prepared with a good season. This is up to you because to help us to expound on the whole country is committed to recycling dommage and discarded Electronic Devices in hospitals, schools, government offices, and companies picked up by employees in virus of an International Recycling company. Their hardware is taken to environs, salves, plant syrah, 60 kilometers from the country, told here its recycled and restored. Its one of the biggest plants of this kind in on of africa, one to have the horses to go by system 4 and of 20 west management established in london. Thats. Thats all im in our main target and we want rhonda to be a model for, for other countries. Not so many countries have this kind of facility in viruses. Business model is to sell their refurbished equipment more than 50 people in walk here. Showing him ever since he started walking with one virus of collecting ive been able to support my from line up and they get no insurance and had no problem doing it for me. Childrens education for your with rhonda is seen as the i. T. Innovation hobby in east africa. Thats why this sector is attractive to the younger generation. It attracts, people like that if we are all right eric. He left school early but begun collecting electronics 1st when he was 17. Now he has his own company employing 35 people to go to buy these electronics from different places and from people who dont need each year to. But for us, these electronics are valuable. After collection, we saw that electronic equipment to separate the ones which can be reused and resold after being repaired. If you take away mark, the government wants to make sure the countryside doesnt get clogged up with the west. So it has imposed strict regulation. As one day set up, the horrible technology we want to see do developing in a sustainable way. Wed be green. I hear the environmental Friendly Technology because we want to see our countries developing but with minimal impact in terms of environmental consequences. Back at school, the laptops are given to pupils for free. Since you have started using computers than stand, many things has changed. This shouldnt have started to knowing that he did this source of information is and is not only they did a pretty big can no longer imagine life without them. And they know these laptops wont go to waste or to be recycled. So most to dance can defeat to electric vehicles, a growing popular in europe. They are hauled over to switch to renewables. And he, weve also looked out many examples. Thats right, sandra. The problem is some people say electro mobility is good for the environment. Both points to the toxic substances contained in the car, batteries until now, only about a 3rd of those chemicals could be separated and reclaim it. But now a company in germany has this come about a way to push up the recycling efficiency considerably. Germany is car country. Statistically every 2nd president owns an automobile. Christiane harnish does to. The engineer also knows that when old cars end up in the junkyard, a mountain of scrap and waste is created. Harnish wants to salvage and recycle as much of the old cars as he can. And hed like to make a living from it. Christiane hunnish founded a Small Company that the cycles car, batteries. It specializes in batteries for electric vehicles which contain a lot of valuable Raw Materials, especially metals. But its not easy to extract them and it can also be dangerous. But that didnt discourage the businessman. The batteries are already out there, so it makes sense to extract the Raw Materials and reuse them. We saw the huge potential in that 10 years ago, the process engineer founded the dos and fed company. This special shredder is at the heart of the firm. It shreds the scrap batteries, turning them into a granular. Theres a good reason for the thick steel plates in the machine. They protect the inner walls from the liquid components in the battery electrolyte, which is highly explosive. Finding a way to separate the electrolyte from other components was the biggest challenge. They took harnish 10 years of drawing, calculating and testing. Now the pure battery fluid flows into a steel tank. This is the electrolyte fluid. No one else can do that. The Company Sells it to the chemical industry, the granular from the scrap batteries lands in the sorting machine, which results in a raised powder. At 1st glance, it doesnt look like its worth much so i dont be fooled. This is the fuel for electrolytic. It contains lithium, cobalt, nickel and manganese, and thats what we want to extract to do that tarnish needed experts on chemical processes. He found them at a University Close by professor toby s. Albert knows exactly which assets can be used to extract the Precious Metals without dissolving them. But isolating numerous metals from the grain powder is a challenge even for the specialist in hydro metallurgy. He was so taken with the idea that he became a partner at does in fact eventually a method was developed that breaks down the great powder step by step into its components. Cobalt sulfate, lithium carbonate, nickel sulfate and manganese sulfate. In this pure form, the precious Raw Materials can be used in the production of batteries. 50 i wanted to keep the impact on nature as small as possible. Its naturally desirable to keep the cycle of Raw Materials as small as possible. The dusun failed company has proven that it can extract Precious Metals from batteries, albeit on a small scale. Soon though, these special shredders will be placed at various locations around europe. The aim is to sell not the recyclable powder, but the Precious Metals for that. A specialized chemical factory is needed and i dont hear that, and im a lot of thinking about it all, but its wonderful when you see that what you come up with is being put into effect. Duzen feld has already reached a recycling rate of 91 percent per battery. The standard is just 32 percent. As a pioneer in recycling, christiane hunnish has shown whats possible. Thats a Promising Development for the even more belligerent sector. Its encouraging to know that people all over the world. I working hard to reduce the amount of how we do to nature are not environment. I might report creature of the woman in ghana who is able to see beauty in things out. Others do not read, seymour . Oh, pretty cool earrings right . Well theyre made from either west leaves. Country chairs are also called just like these funky coffee table design. A painting turns trash into treasure. She finds tyrone material and books dumpsite for electronic waste. Its the place where Old Computers and keyboards wind up along with stacks of car tires. The smell of burning rubber fills the air. A lot of people here upon the trash to recover pieces of coal power that they can sell on. But much to the pain, its not hunted for copper. Shes on the lookout for inspiration. Voices get the positives for you. So we try to find a solution to this problem. So in all small way to need to get Climate Change, we decided to come via the house for wings. Prime ministers, holy. This scrap yard has an army, nice nickname and camera. Its about the size of 20, so capell 2, which means theres plenty of material from ikea over to sort through. She can show us several times a week and this time abuse computer Circuit Boards have called tom i would cut to work with anything, whether its broken or is new or is all those . Thats what i was about to be calling them once in a while. Cmon, mr. Fine, im all for the cool story. The 1st stage of the transformation is a good clean. Then the material is cut into smaller pieces and sundered down to make smooth ages. Finally, matilda paint puts the finishing touches to how unique earrings matildas projects require time and teamwork spaces obvious challenge. We dont have a bigger space so we cannot employ more and we can do more for us on the 2nd one is machinery. As you can see around, we have just simple tools that will work with the team certainly isnt lacking imagination. They can try on all generate electric scrap into lampshades tables or clocks. And matilda paint regularly exhibits have designs of conferences, objects, not only they are opening to, i think rather than take all this amazing stuff that all this money has been poured into and just put the world with it. Why not turn it into art . A lot of places across the world were having a problem with an increase in ways. Id like managing the ways to getting rid of it. Pain has won several awards. A creative way of doing her bit for the environment. And she has even bigger things planned for the company. We are looking not being able to and therefore would like to train more women too, which are into what were doing now to be able to do your own. Businesses would also like to empower the youth expression, which we come into produce like us for every item sold already donates 5 percent of the money she makes to the education of people aged young girls. She doesnt only want to bring peace candidate. Id back to life. She also wants to give Something Back to society. A great idea for the environment and for education too.

I just want to repeat one number from our show before you go 57000000000 u. S. Dollars. That is how much the wild electronic waste was worth in 2019. So remember that before you throw away your old phone in the trash, it is a good buy from me.
