companies are out to make money. what is the balance there between being more sustainable and and still bringing pounds in? well, the key here is how we can decarbonise and still grow. so, if we can achieve our ambition to be net zero by 20110, we can grow as well, and that decouples those two those two topics. it could be years before we know if the decisions companies are making now will really help the planet. this tech is making that a little bit less of a gamble. and that s it for the short version of the programme. the full length show can be found on iplayer, where we ll have more of the latest innovations hoping to tackle climate change. now, it s going to take much more than those to make a dent on rising global temperatures but whenever we see something that we think is promising, we ll make sure you see it, too. thanks for watching. we ll see you soon. bye bye.
has a lower carbon footprint. so we looked up what risilience was telling us about where our carbon footprints and may be carbon tax in the future will affect us, and we thought, what are the ingredients we can change? and by moving to lower carbon ingredients, things like lactic acid which is developed from fermenting maize we were able to reduce the carbon footprint, and that means it is set up for the future, low carbon, low water economy. reckitt are not the only ones turning to this tech. there are estimates the market for digital twins could be worth billions of dollars over the next decade. but having all the data on sustainability is one thing companies need to act on it. i think when a lot of people think about big companies on sustainability, they probably roll their eyes, because big companies are out to make money. what is the balance there between being more sustainable and still bringing pounds in? the key here is how we can decarbonise and still grow. if we can achieve

earth observation and many other domains navigation being one of them. and i think this is something that has to be seen in a holistic context. and, yes, this debate is needed. very interesting. final point europe s never actually, of course, put men into space flight. the americans have done it, the chinese have done it, many countries have done it, but europe hasn t done it. do you think that s the wrong focus? because it s very expensive and if one talks about getting men human beings, i should say back on the moon and then to mars, vast, vast expense and time frames which are already stretching to 20110, 2050 before it s conceivable it could happen. the alternative is to say, you know that? we re not going to do that any more it s too expensive. we need to focus our resources on safeguarding our own planet, which is fragile and under urgent threat right now, not least from climate change. do you think that needs to be the focus going forward? 0k, today, the majority of
