A matriarchal community in indonesia sumatra. And how the city of athens is preparing itself against the impact of Climate Change. First a hot warming study a group of undergraduate students in delhi is working with of ghani women who are refugees in india to make meets booms and boards that are edible most of the 11000 of gandhi refugees in india who live in delhi project but the idea is not only giving these women a source of livelihood but also helping create a society with less up lost. In. The desert but beamish zeon 30 already on their way to work. The 2 women are of gone refute. Hes. Arrived in the indian capital in 5 years ago with her husband and. Her husband is unemployed she is the breadwinner its a job to produce at a very. We live happy lives in afghanistan. Until broke out there and bombs were falling up and. My husband and childrens lives were in danger. Thats when we decided to come here. The students from delhis karim said of the initiative with the help of the you see the United Nations refugee agency. Is basically an amalgamation of script would spot through and. Basically means your pencils and something that you can eat being added with your pencils so when restarted or the project we would looking forward all communities who require that invention are socially as well as economy. And very very had the boys i ran the met with access and you and got in touch with the un and see out of the of gondor. Many of gone refugees live in the district of southern including benish she earns about 1500. 00 rupees a month roughly equivalent to going to do u. S. Dollars. This work is you. Dont know about the concept of edible cutlery yet. Thats why even though i have been working here for the last 3 years the money is not great and we get paid only even. These boys get sold that would be fair its good that we are doing because we are trying to police plastic. And eating from plastic utensils can cause a lot of. Damage a place that weve both made up for example it is a great thing. Not just for people but also for the environment. The basic recipe includes white flour rice and of a protein some of the bones im in flip off the production the kitchen has to be used within 15 days what isnt used can be bad to add the bill utensils decompose within just 2 weeks. Honey you may get him 1st remake the do and put it into the machine and we ship it and put it into the oven to be baked finally we clean it properly before its meat waiting for some. Experienced cooks have had a hand in developing the formula. The food safety of the project has been awfully approved by him in the cold case. Biggest principle that its trying to work on is that i do catering there was a single use plastic and it was an avid in fact that plastic is taking over the void and its high time that you stop talking and start doing and then when your pencils when we go out in the market and tell people theyre mostly shock and theyre. Going to plastic what do you say so. A lot of potential in that idea so youve been pursuing that since. The world beers to be drowning in Plastic Waste in india Online Delivery Services also generate 22000. 00 tonnes of it every single month. The students have enlisted professional help from the Food Industry to ensure they can compete with conventional packaging. Initially when we started out we had a little problems going out there because it was a very new concept to the people but off successful miscreation seminars and we did ring out to people at reduced events and in various qualities we were able to create a sustainable demand for the product. First there were language barriers interest had to grow to be an issue in asean have already achieved a lot of learning to manufacture the your dentals then turning to sales. We have also gone to stones a couple of times to sell before. The team makes all the arrangements and we had. One ball fetches us 100 people. We also get a share of profits then they are sold. By the big. 10 mins india vandeman was one of the most challenging aspect we face with project it was difficult for them to open up that was because theyre in a completely different world completely different country with no identity but then with o. E. Various sessions with the community where we taught them their language a little fun learning their languages and with the exchange of cultures you finally able to do work. On projects 1st customers this discovery in Greater Noida it orders between 250. 00 to 300. 00 bowls every month theyre mainly used to serve ice cream it is a stock. Now weve all seen that heart wrenching image of marine conservationist pulling out lumps of plastic bags from the sea to but have you wondered what happens to heavier plastics like spoons for example so they end up in a landfill lets find out. If youve ordered delivery food today it might reach you with a non edible staple disposable plastic spoons. An estimated 79 percent of single use items designed for immediate disposal accumulate in landfills or are left as litter around us. To understand the Environmental Impact of these single use plastic spoons we need to examine their journey from design to disposal. What is the lifecycle of a plastic spoon look like fossil fuels are extracted with drilling rigs then refined often causing pollution and harming local communities and biodiversity. These materials are then transported to a factory where they go through a chemical process known as polymerization producing small pellets of plastic called nergals. The pellets are then ships to another factory where the spoons are manufactured after which theyre shipped off once again this time to Distribution Centers where consumers purchase them. But even before its been used the spoon has already done irreparable damage to the environment spills and negligent transportation lead to nergals ending up at sea and eventually in the food on our plates at the same time inefficient supply Chain Management means more fossil fuels are burned and more Carbon Dioxide finds its way to the atmosphere and thats not all just 9 percent of all the plastic thats been produced in 1950 has been recycled. Consumers typically only use plastic spoons once. After that they become a solid waste that finds its way to landfills oceans or incinerators. Since the plastic isnt biodegradable it can remain in the environment for hundreds of years we need to avoid Plastic Waste in the 1st place and improve the recycling system. Having seen that the 1st question that pops in my head is is there a way to avoid plastic use all together one of my tools friends or try to replace plastic day to day life tells me they are just possible but not easy to designers in general seem to have found the solution after much trial and error they have bio plastic sheets and bags made of samuels which can be put into a compost heap once youre done with it thats it well lets take. That decomposes after its used. It disappears without causing any damage to the environment. Researchers and designers around the world are trying to realize this vision. Among them a product designers katia instance avas. The trigger for that work is the amount of trash that they themselves produce. For the couple have long been aware of the issue. But despite their best efforts theyre aware that avoiding packaging altogether is still extremely tricky. For about 15 years ago we were standing in our pantry wondering why a 3 person household generates a bag full of Plastic Waste each week. Even though were very careful this is. Every day food items cooked meats cheese coffee and tea it all has to be packaged partly 2 years ago theres a vis started producing composite of all film and bags made from cellulose from which waste which decompose when they come into contact with bacteria in the soil in france italy and switzerland you can put them in the organic waste bin. Indictment of my in germany this isnt possible at the moment were working to provide evidence that our film decomposes brilliantly in industrial composting facilities and together with Waste Management companies were also striving to find a solution to the problem of how these materials can be reconciled in sorting plants so that they can be turned into compost in germany too. Another challenge is coming up with packaging that seals in a roma for half a year now spend savers has been working on a multilayered composite of all coffee packets. Just like a plastic packet coated with alum in your it protects and keeps the coffee from going stale the new product is currently undergoing laboratory testing. Well you just do you must every foodstuff comes with its own challenges not serfaty cheeses bioactive coffee is a roma sensitive so every product has its own characteristics and they have to be tested i cant make any assumptions thats the challenge you have to try everything out and that takes time and it takes money because its right because of the orchid. But the savers have already won over many customers for the single last cellulose phone for example vegetable supply is like sun mom when the organic farm packs its way as an open crates the heads of lettuce and other salad greens wilt if they arent covered monicas son mum switched to box made of composite a bill from 6 months ago as the german Waste Disposal system doesnt cater for them some mom has come up with an interim solution. That customers can definitely return these bags to us and well compost them not all of our customers have compost heaps or a composting bin but they can bring them back to us. On it at times that some of. The vegetable delivery farm would also like to avoid using conventional plastic for their potted halves but because the thin film used for the leafy greens would come into contact with soil in the pots it would start decomposing too quickly causing it to rip too easily. Xaviers have developed a new film for the application it takes twice as long to come past due the new film decompose this in 12 to 15 weeks in Industrial Facilities in natural conditions it takes longer to break down than the original cellulose film so it can come into contact with soil a moisture we can package plants with it without it breaking down straight away. Avoiding packaging altogether is unrealistic in todays global Food Industry but there are more and more alternatives to conventional Petroleum Based plastic film. Box. Shifting focus now indonesia is home to the voice of the largest me to think of the 2 the mean i think about people here property family name and land boss is gone from the mother to the daughter just like in matriarchal communities in kid in law for example our team visited best on sumatra with 4200000 minnows continue to live in practice is centuries old tradition. Shes the boss. So is she. And so is she. Among the mean and kaberle people of sumatra the women are in charge. About women are strong because theyre not tradition and culture they hold a strategic position but no one leader has the moral guardians that the pillars on the foundation for the women have authority. What makes this matriarchy even more unusual is that its in a country where the majority of the population is muslim and the power that women hold isnt just symbolic unlike most traditional communities around the world with sons inherit from their fathers here it all goes to the women are born. Its the woman who owns everything. She owns the house the property the fish poems the rice fields. Every segment of the movie arise out of my chemical one. High as one of 2 and a half 1000000 women she lives on the island of sumatra where she produces the most expensive coffee in the world. Also made coffee beans come from coffee cherries that have been eaten in definition by the asian palm civet its a highly specialized product and popular all over the world. So i also bought another yeah i actually started this business on my own without help from anyone not the government or anybody else so. I started my separate coffee production from 0. To accept of the. Going up also. I just thought if other people can do it why cant i. Thats my motto thats why ive survived in the civic Coffee Business to this day. Business. Its typically dominated by men. Who is the only daughter in the family so she inherited the house and fields she employs farmers from all over the region and determines the prices herself passed down from one generation of women to the next the 1st land of western sumatra has been a source of wealth for the people for centuries. But im. Going home younger so i think theres a lot to learn from me about women. From their selfreliance. From the respect for other women. And from their independence in the bend. When mean and care about couples marry the man moves into the wifes house and whats in her fields most men come from other families in other villages opinion about inheritance is divided. From the guy at the embassy for i havent really thought about marriage yet. Thats still a long way off from a many. People and it said my poor would have to go i think we should respect the traditions inheritance should go to the daughter of one. Of the like mickey mouse if you like men should be leaders they should be men. But in our culture its the women who have the privilege and thats not trying to get to. That i connect religion says it should be the men who lead because women need to be protected thats their privilege and. Thats the way it should be im not the only person with this opinion you can satisfy now. As i am. I often get into conflict about this with my family. Were going to do our own theres a woman in my family who says men have no rights. Its not that i have no rights we have duties among its just the inheritance that only goes to the woman what. They mean and care about certainly safe from the threat of male dominance the women are in control they have economic power and authority because of what they own. Every man on what about us and dreams of having a daughter. And i gave birth to 3 sons are. Now in india extreme heatwaves during the summer months have huge step with cautions theres a loss of life in many of the genes in the country Climate Change is not to me anymore and is not exclusive to only some parts of the planet dick athens for example the city has to deal with drastic shifts between extreme drought and hiv aids the new idea stablished office for resilience and sustainability is starts with looking out for Nature Based Solutions to make athens climate resilient lets take a look at how its going so far. The renowned athens acropolis seen from the top of nearby mount like a better house for athenians like a better choice is even more important nowadays because it still has traces of woodland 80 percent of the metropolis is a densely built cauldron of cement with summer temperatures easily hit 38 degrees celsius Climate Change is also aggravating conditions in the drought plagued arid landscape linear mirror valleys had enough their rising heat and a long period of heatwave creates drought and we have problems because also we do have. A different type of rains these days also due to Climate Change we have shorter periods of time that we have enormous amount of water coming down in a very short period of time so this creates flooding and flooding creates erosion so we have this double phenomenon of dryness and a lot of water which also. The land and creates land there over 3 years ago 40 percent of the areas annual rainfall gushed down here in only 5 hours and washed away most of the topsoil. Athens is one of the european cities most at risk from drought and fast fires the deforestation of the slopes of mount like a better has disrupted the areas microclimate as well the downpours of recent years turned roads he into white water tolerance now athens is responding were replacing all the asphalt of the road that goes up and down the hill which is a proximately 3 kilometers taking it off and putting a special type of material that is what the permeable water is a key element when it comes to cooling athens down thats why the head of the citys water works is showing a linear average antiquity the final stretch of a fully functional aqueduct dating back to the you 125 it channels 5000000 tonnes of water a year which until now simply drained. Unused into the at and su is we tried to use it in the 80s but the quality of the water then was not that great so now that we have a very good serious system we can speak again about using the water of the hundreds architect not for drinking but for other nonportable uses like for example watering plants irrigation also washing roads or washing. Waste bins so these are things that we right now often use drink of the water to do things that is actually a great waste the aqueduct is still intact here because it runs underground for 20 kilometers its unique in europe groundwater trickles into it along its entire length which can be accessed at over 200. 00 locations downstream the National Gardens in athens is not only in a way says of retreat from the hot citys bustle its also important for the local climate the aqueduct is already irrigating the gardens that in turn cools the surrounding area. The National Garden has Just Launched a project aimed at cataloguing its entire inventory all 7000 trees and 5000 bushes with photos latin names and trunk sizes. Sensors will also record temperature and humidity. The projects findings will be transposed across all of athens. It will help to improve care of watering of trees pruning and to replace city plant stocks we have about 90000 trees in street lines and we want to have for each one of them date their regarding their health their height and what kind of eco systemic services it gives the city syntagma square with the Greek Parliament sits is the beginning of one of athens main shopping thora fans will also play a key role in combating heat linea mirror village is having 16 water fountains installed. You need say you need room areas to give them protection then you need water like then you need to have probably water fountain. So that people can drink water. Water and woodlands to cool baking cities in athens and around the world. I hope you had many takeaways from previous short well be back next week with many more such stories to help you make an informed choice for a Climate Change<\/a>.
