9:30 am
because all the world we make the difference, your w, call the world and also your info is in all the input u, v. w story. now on to the, this is what thing looks like in the city of then lessons away the glorious sunshine. and so i was everywhere. hello and welcome. i'm sorry because the body and you all watching equal. and while the weather seems absolutely perfect right now, it is only a matter of the weeks before the heat waves are upon us and it is not just the city of daily, but cities across the world have. we all such perfect weather, these 2 extremes,
9:31 am
temperatures and extreme weather events. and now we're just or we is hopping from heat. we drought, florida, spies to floods, pale storms and side loans and the 4 weeks and the cycle continue. speaking of psycho the winter in india especially ended in february and the men department told us that these last winter's what unusually warm and despite over on higher temperatures the chord we've did no expense. i'm wiley on saturday to choose some of us. what was to like the auburn for many of whom are homeless ad worked for us to stay in such nitrogen, my volleyball heartache. so look at the other thing that had them would spend the winter of the highest night descends in the city of daily dipping mode to the same rules on the street scrambling full ways to keep warm every night i head out with my account rep, listen to documents,
9:32 am
stories of the homeless and the poor. how are the coping with the frequent bolts? of course we've that has gripped, know that india for the us. ok. the cartoon has been calling district of the bustling road as whole, the whole, a bamboo, slop homes of wonderful food. and it has shown is 118 deal baby. so care there may not have heard of the word climate change, but a nice on the streets is definitely governed by the with the a good day. she says is when the sun comes out to hopefully body hi, 8 year old son to die. he's waiting list of clues, what's new shoes? that keep taking my shoes a week to complete a study by the lights of commission in 2020 but on the phone. that is india, the number of debts for you, linked with ob,
9:33 am
normally port temperatures is more than 600000. not taking into account the hardship, loss of livelihoods due to illness from the port. and it's not just the homeless was suffering. i need to see the dog in the natalie and adjacent to the cities. flashy express, we hundreds like me though, so the city is a lead cleaning, the homes that have dipped included water or the to get onto the shanty quartets. oh yeah. beautiful. what fun to me, what if i sound would be out of i'm a little bit at night, she says she keeps so says boom by dropping many blankets. she's too scared to switch on any sheeting field of suffocation or electrocution. it'd be when i speak to agrees that the window this feel feels harsh. dot from the indian mitre logically, department conforms loopy perceptions. no team didn't states like deleon for job
9:34 am
breach the most to the deep sleep quickly in the last decade. winters they have to come short though. but the density of the chord waves has increased in response to the core with the state government, the daily announced the with the action plan, hundreds of temporary shelters, a set up across the city to excell job. you're thinking municipal solid about large in charge of the action plan. shares. what details? so these uh, $134.00 plus minus 10. so i have their own do you for this window and they will be here too much. there's a large group of i for many fast win cuz people don't want to see them. i don't. yes, they say that. why do we have the should go ahead? yeah, i don't, we don't want them in your government has been different, but we don't want to see it. we don't want to see it with the poor little in addition to shelter for the poor,
9:35 am
these in protection against the cord. i hope to meet the standard government supports and feels like actually at the bottom. so to provide quotes me to the whole. so it's why they don't. one is the village at this time. so by nearly $20000.00 new, i mean for the whole less than daily. with rice mixed on the menu is the kind of a dash of the tea leaves. and the splash of the checking, the data to to know is in touch to dismantle spice's food. step down, i be blash those that don't of actually it pops up to understand how the meaning is up to date seamlessly in this kitchen. they don't know shows or they don't have any house. and they asked in these, we have another, do they have a blessed a cool so far them this me now just a lot. so what we're doing is that the breakfast, lunch and dinner. the mission maybe to eliminate tongue to the organization is also
9:36 am
conscious of reducing this problem for the future, run some fuel efficient stove, and the top of the building is followed by solar energy. once the food is ready, it's sent for distribution in electric heat. as light defense, it's time for distribution side, deceptive, addicted that it's, even though maybe the norm in the future will extreme cold weather in the window for a few days. i've been doing some meetings in the summer. so the question is, how can i have the causative climate resilient? i am on my way to meet 2 individuals who may have some solutions. i don't have a goal sure helps the council for energy environment and water emphasizes a need for high quality data for dimensions. what is needed? fewer is much more hyper local assessment. all of these vis, i'm looking at a district level. and you can generate and update the sub district that i have
9:37 am
a scientific assessment of the way the experience might play out in this very narrowly defined area. yeah. now let's map it to bundle both of those origins. that is not just about providing susan blitzer stuck jolts, but also the creation of social infrastructure. whether it's to the soup kitchens, it's not just a near fabric, but you're also provided in your boss technologies like had mittens and electric over codes to reduce exposure to the quote with all these things quite well. my next stop is at the office of architect bonkers cook top. he's up to view that climate resilience for the pool can only be achieved by a more equitable view of city designs on with i think one of the challenges of modernity and of modern his docket extra is when you're throwing the same set of tools that or problems, they tend to be obscuring the actual root cause and the other routes causes when. therefore, getting that off on that killer traditions have been climate friendly language
9:38 am
changes in using i know about subjects with a default. functions advises that city planners need to go back to the basics, to the in the e pulse of building with the nuclear materials. that as well suited to local federal conditions on my last day of chronicling this story, i need to, that'd be all. she's been living in the attempt to the shelters for almost a month and they get a trouble seemed big. but she has enough garden this in the heart to provide refuge towards the dining and kitchen dropped in her showing was on supported historian. reminder that e, without as was times the human spirit can be storm, resilient, human spit. it may not be enough to come back to the climate change. what is needed is community care coordination, smart use of technologies to and wants early warning system and is eating capacities such that they can. so the many people i have met on this story
9:39 am
that we just bought a glimpse into the lives of the oven for a lot of those who migrates into big cities often end up working. i've been a construction sites or as we speak us in harsh weather conditions. one of the major health pets that'd be face is ethel use. and the majority of these walkers are women on who these in fact i'm much was this is the place where a landfill at about 20 to 50 is. it's the 2nd largest dumpsite in the us capitalist, new daily. more than 200000 people live alone. it's fair to meet us for the last 25 years chemo has lived and worked here, as we speak, a pyramid company that the p are used to go to work, then come home that send my child to school and do all the chose to go to excel, but for the boss you my hope haven't been good. ok,
9:40 am
so i stopped going to work as often. thank you my i used to walk 2025 days a month, but now i work. let me put out the cut. i will know what else a minute with them i make, i bought the piece for people who live this close to the line. so even the ad debrief is toxic in a city that has some of the most polluted ad in the was improper waste. dispos that makes things much worse table is bought of a group of fuck the women who have been learning about this issue. and the reasons for the has problems they're planning to reach out to the thousands of other women who do similar work. the group meets regularly with local rep as natives and conducts public hearings and social medical and environment. police who was think this is extremely important to have this kind of community level engagement because typically what happens is that, you know, people are not aware of the reason they are unwillingly exposed to high level up air pollution, heat both outdoor indoor. uh. so the 1st step definitely is that, uh, you know, fitting. i learned this among them. and you know, some of these,
9:41 am
our nest programs i am aware of are also providing some individually i live in, you know, a strategy to really add up to the situations. few people. i'm more of it of the need for the strategies been, looks on a she grew up in a family of ways because it has fullest hand experience of the health problems these by the women. things that are such as also seen in medical test. that in these b a, this is, it tells the primary function this we found that this big of a main road about 3.6 times more likely to have a voice in lung conditions and stuff like, um, charities will 6 times likely to have worse and long functions, ask them back to me and because the cooking indoors and the cooking on bio biomass, fluids or to we highs is equal. it looks on a and the theme audits into an environmental action. and research group has set up
9:42 am
a quality monitoring devices across the neighborhood. this helps locate them in land, they walk and daily activities they avoid working in the waste of rent. the monitor flashes red and fig precautions like reading box, even outside of book. back at home, the women have taken steps to cope with mr. newton fuels. jessica or this up to the women here use bio mass jobs. but then be heard about the government program to provide for you guys to lenders. we looked into how to access the scheme of part of the v had details to do to $35.00 people in the call in the update and gas and interest gas bill idea. in 2022. the was air quality to both designed debbie ford in a list of the boys 15 most when you did cities. all the evolution affects. everyone woke up in the informal sector suffered the most major in perspective, projects and construction sites, rely on loopy workers who have literally to no protection for pollution on the job
9:43 am
. this homes that are also near the construction site, so they get little respite from the pollution. that's a good little pouring cement, always created a lot of dust under the effect of them, went into a mountain like that. we had no choice to move on to the the construction sector. workers here are also organizing and retraining to work and see for jobs. many large, depart in an introductory book shop, run by and n g or to learn how to use the proper safety equipment. she says it made a difference. we will pick a not that of the model but i took part in this training for 15 days on august 21st and foremost what safety equipment i need to protect my health is the my goal on any with the efforts of women like fema looks on on many, maybe a drop in the ocean would be cool that over time, the will help raise awareness and promote better working conditions for, for informally walkers, in debbie. as we have seen in this episode, so far,
9:44 am
extreme temperatures are increasingly becoming a major problem. and this and telling me that now we need more artificial cooling and heating, especially in those spaces. the downside, so this is any sort of as envisioning what keeping us when he consumes our lot of fossil fuels, which is done increase is global warming unformed tribute to more extreme temperatures, unexcused weather event. so is that a cleaner way of stocking this problem? let's find out nothing required small energy worldwide and keeping houses warm and providing to industry. teaching accounts for half of the global energy consumption and 72 percent. while heating comes from binding fossil fuels long story short to limit global warming. we need to bring heating emissions down. my name is the mid sized city of about $300000.00 inhabitants. it's 6 directly on germany's biggest river. right. and you guys, right. the river plays
9:45 am
a key role in this story. the magic is happening in the local energy providers producing electricity mt thing through a mix of fossil fuels and cold was until today the region relied heavily on the most climate timing source for heating cooling. this is felix ok. he's energy manage it. energy company, mtv. the magic machine we're about to show you is his baby. this single thought plant is responsible for about $6800000.00 tons of c o 2 every year. it's almost one percent of germany's annual emissions, but this is changing for the better right now. the thing that i'm f meg, and all the details of the water flow down the run that covers manheim, seating needs several times over them, even touch cold temperatures. so now it's about 6 or 7 degrees celsius from the
9:46 am
physics point of view, and thus it's the enough heat within this deafening done is in fact a heat pump for this by pushing from 800 meters of where the water per 2nd. it can provide heat for $3500.00 households audio rooms. so this is where the wind going to comes in and goes to the lot sheet changes you get per right to. but it's, it's pass the heat to the foot tubing. okay, wait a 2nd. let's take a step back. this is what happens in all those pipes. the what that seems co to us, but it's easily warm enough to turn a liquid refrigerant into graphs as this kind of upward. extremely low temperature is the gas expense, and electric pump then compresses this gas. this generates heat. this mechanism is so efficient. you can generate 3 times as much heat with the same energy as with a gas for that. it doesn't just work with river water and you get the same effect
9:47 am
with heat from and the ground, or ideally the electricity for the pump comes from renewable entities. but even if it comes from fossil fuels, it's still more sustainable. so now we're going to see that he started from wherever over the entire at the moment by far the largest proportion of this is still heated with cool. only 3 percent of the heat comes from the river, but that was soon changed as the coal fired power station will probably be shut down by 2033. as energy efficient and sustainable, every of the heat pump is taking heat from the river means that the water is being discharged 3 degrees quarter after the process with potentially negative impacts on a larger scale. however, due to the small quantities of water being discharged, the temperature and the river only changes by less than $110000.00. it's of a degree according to mtv, but now i mentioned one of them, the river, right and will be made just city. so they're wanting to cover that high heat to
9:48 am
month, including industrial tons such as the s s or could extra punch the rhine. we'll use ball to mid that might use water for, for heat pumps, for the processes. and suddenly you get, uh, you get an issue with another issue, all the refrigerants that can be terrible greenhouse gases. there are alternatives on the market which have less global warming potential. but some of the issues such as being easy to ignite and manufacturers tend to produce business as usual. in my name, the generated heat is distributed by district heating over and across in germany, around 15 percent of all buildings. i know he does in this way, and most of it could be meant by large heat pumps, cutting out cold and gas. they asked of a nice but installations have started to pick up the phone can exec energy from almost any say? yeah, way for to see people from the ground, they don't have issues because it's pretty small to be used in almost any
9:49 am
residential building like this one a by 20. so the heat pumps could save as many emissions as all the costs and you have produced a year with smaller units taking a central stage, especially as heat pumps can also turn from heating into cooling mode at a more energy efficient than classic air conditioners. but there is a catch, of course, it's the money, a particular one, installing office heat pump, switching from a different heating system is always going to be more expensive as we are right now . right now in 2024 heat pumps can cause $2.00 to $4.00 times more than natural gas because it's a big outlay, especially for low income families. on the other hand, long term they could save you money as heat pumps need less energy in europe. households currently save on average $900.00 per year and in the us $300.00. but the advantage of fossil fuel heating depends highly on. yep. energy prices is full . the recent energy price cost is when prices became unpredictable and fall the
9:50 am
tile on average, of course, your electricity was around $33.00 times more expensive in gas. so you can see if you having especially heat pump getting a 300 percent full 100 percent efficiency, you might be saving some money back in the u. k. where, oh is, is before the press cost is electricity was 5 times more expensive in gas. so you can see that, that you would really struggle to be saving some money. so if heat pumps, almost sustainable and economically viable, depends highly on your government's energy policies, whether they've favor cheap green electricity over fossil fuels. in man, i'm the prospect of high to texas low climate targets and states subsidies for the construction of the plans with the size if in the switch to read the heating that target is to provide almost 100 percent clean heat by 2030. the funds will cover all of that with one important component to eventually shut down the dirty coal
9:51 am
power plant behind me in the near future, might of smaller scale, deep problems, almost sustainable, and can make regions more independent from fossil fuels. let's have to wait for me . i know can be on the bus stop by to and fashion. the country is increasingly becoming a fox thoughtful climate change. while nearly 300 explain that events were recorded in 2009 in 2019 over 1600 such events were recorded, which is almost of 5 for the increase in nearly a decade. last year the country that guarded 2 devastating floods and the steam off to a long period of city are dropped. i'm much like in the off almost nittany are struggling as well. let's speak to one such pharma to find out more a. so andrea, my lender is the floods last spring, worried disaster. his 25 heck to farm was completely submerged. he lost huge costs of his harvest of kiwis, apples and peaches, a loss of move in half
9:52 am
a 1000000 yours. he said there's only finishing, but half us drop it floods are any one menace. italy is considered particularly vulnerable to climate change. in recent years. my laundry says he's grappled with droughts, hailstones, tornadoes and coal snaps. middlebrook about to put on the, on the own. i did not before i was worried about it already and i told now i'm more floods or am i up to border going early on. i cool jennings at this, i the about then to the but it's nothing for the to see pension. the, the ends of getting it isn't just climate change that played a role in the flooding. some of the reasons seem to be main. and media romania is one of italy's most fragile regions when it comes to flux and then finds mainly because of use of unchecked construction in the field, plains ceiling and tie a areas already proven to flooding over 200000. take tons of land have been paved
9:53 am
over encroaching upon forests. if you only thing that at least 3 rivers are squeezed into ever higher and narrow banks to give space to houses, industries in agriculture, we need to reverse this approach. pretty the 6 years ago, the regional government austin ambitious, the roland consumption bill, but it was never implemented by any sense. piracy flooded areas have long be well mapped. blue lines clearly indicate when nothing should be built, but they kept being ignored. and then when i worked in the local administration, so counselors sometimes came and asked me to move the lines to allow their friends and such to be. this is the problem. when politics does things like that, it's not looking out for the public interest or the interest of future generations . you know, to say that i simple because eliza said that i said that it was going to get out of
9:54 am
here on this. many of the canals and streams of amelia romania is extensive irrigation infrastructure of us that banks meet urologist p allergy. randy says, because it's only face 2 years of extreme draft before maintaining the regions, waterways and river banks was no priority. or what are the calls? it could very well find. one of the things we need to do is to restructure and remodel the land for a new climate company. my case, what i want, can i look at the more we have to take charge and invest in infrastructure and that can bring us towards adoption. booked out of and they all we will have to adapt which is the name of the daughter that is also evident in the town of mo, deanna. it's recorded over 200 land slides in may 2023. local authorities say, well, the priority is to rebuild the dissolve to shows it comp simply be business. as unusual request 3, we have to rebuild with respect for the natural landscape entering salma. andre,
9:55 am
i'm a lender. he doesn't know how long he'll be able to hold out in the face of increasingly frequent, extreme weather events, fido and you know, because the queen the farmer today has become almost a role like enterprise for me, but as at all. yeah. a. but i'll ask you to this whole thing because usually it's going to be tied to the really tough while i media romani, i had to deal with the often math of the floods. the question of what amplified this tragedy and what can be learned from it is growing ever now to sol menu, if you will watch actual from different spots of the was i'm come from such a way the cultures and contacts and yet climate change. in fact, all of us solve possibly doing more than the others, but no one is on. just let me know how do you feel about this? i'd love to hear you can email us or do you talk to me directly on my social media
