long term help cut fossil fuel use and climate damaging emissions scottish companies sustainable marine energy built the platform german firm shuttle hydro made the turbines and rotors they merged during the project to help deliver on its title energy ambitions the shuttle group specializes in marine propulsion systems including water jets like these. this old pebble steamer has been fitted out with jets built by the company. it s in service on the rhine river here in germany. the steamer regularly passes by shuttle headquarters. engineer needs is building on the group s proprietary propeller technology and this newly formed sustainable marine energy company says its title energy power plants have huge potential especially if the conditions are
cheap squeak i can afford. or to cover that for the robins this late night food drive has been well worth the effort but the knowledge more needs to be done. to find people is gone i think the number is there it s going to be. i wish it was not. doing this because there is a problem like that you just wish this problem was not there. until then the robin hood army is staying true to its model taking from the rich and redistributing it to the poor. shifting focus now a scottish and german company together have developed a floating tidal energy power plant hydro kind of take energy is a valuable resource but it takes advanced technology to harness it all scalable and sustainable can it prove let s take a closer look. it s winter and icy cold out
option because to fully utilize the overall of all resources the rivers that are there all this technology is a perfect fit for what we needed now africa to meet the electricity demand but first more research is needed recently the platform was shipped to nova scotia in canada the developers are evaluating environmental impacts and performance of the technology they hope that their power plants will soon replace diesel generators and many remote off grid locations. plastic is a top contender for the worst inventions in the twentieth century because of the massive scale of palm it has begun to cause the planet is specially the oceans not surprising as it may sound a french company has found a note on a fifth of plastic that could be produced with algae that grow abundantly in these
video shoots let s see how. every hour more than three hundred tons of plastic are tossed into the world s oceans and it will take hundreds of years for the plastic to decompose. but there seems to be an alternative that comes from the sea itself. it s the source material for an eco friendly plastic made by algo pack a company in southern france. using a natural polymer found in brown algae they produce granules that is then used to make everyday items. but the good thing is it s completely biodegradable. the not so good thing the bio plastic costs twice as much as regular fossil fuel
let s look at how a poor need based professor has lived without electricity for almost seven decades how an army of volunteers and demi is making sure all the city s poor don t go hungry. and how a french company is making an eco friendly work done to the plastic. box first one of my favorite stories on this show electricity use such a basic need for all of us in cities today we may not always know how it works yet we ve gone to really imagine our lives without it but if we don t have any professor in the city of whom we invest in india has never used electricity in her life in the twenty first century how does this really work let s take a look at this fascinating story.
