In the state of hamilton, Police Efforts to club local emissions him to save the glasses that have a major water source and broadest attraction. Ah ha. Without them, via farmer yogi harper couldnt bring his apples to market an iron bridge that once connected his village of so long in the himalayas with the quill. Normally valley was recently swept aveena landslide, after heavy rains. Now the villagers may do with roadways and temporary wooden bridges worked a bridge gradually gone up by emergency gregory, we had to build a temporary bridge for emergency. We didnt have any other choice. Melanie eggs, this bridge, is the only way we can transport an injured or sick child, or an elderly person in an emergency room on colony guineas for akin juggle, of job a bridge, even on our by the indian steed off he might help. Reddish is home to a number of big him, a land lease. Yes. They melt water feeds into the regions 5 main rivers. The co, nominally valley lies 1800 meters above sea level. This year saw unprecedented heat waves. And in the month of july alone, more than pretty heavy rainstorms. The resulting floods led to landslides that killed 140 people. The extreme red there isnt only down to Climate Change. Local factors have also played at all. The volume of traffic has increased massively over the past 30 years. As hill stations draw increasing number of tourists local residence like yogi ta corsi, the landscape is changing before their eyes and well go rid of dracula. This year we went for a winter dreadful friendship via cambridge, and we love the temperature was very unexpected in just a span of 2. 00 to 3. 00 days. Quite fleming now, we witnessed a snow melting cycle. I was very surprised to see that at austin. There are a lot of fluctuations in temperature. Theres no balance any models, jo, balance the balance because hes not a regular wife. There is now less no fall and that employee just rising. But other factors are also driving the lease. You melt scientists, food from food fired power plant, forest wires, and diesel firewood makers is making normal pasta. One problem is that it says that emitting black hoffman and the black card one gets the ball. The date on the seasonal snort made a death suspended into that, marcia their f. Solve the salon edition because they do them black in color. They have perfect, i saw sion property it and death saw disallowed it, asian and in the process they have the atmosphere. And the impact is huge. Reports on the World Bank Shows the black carbon deposits could be responsible for more than 50 percent of the actually think leesha and snow melt in the region. At the bus station in monopoly, conduct the hunter dodge issues a last call for passengers. His bus is about to leave and its not just any bus. The fully electrically good is one of 25 e bus is serving the monopoly valley. Hunter rod has been working here for years. He too, has noticed changes in the mountains and therefore is 15 years ago there was a lot of snowfall between december in march. It was hard to spot land and i know him thinking he will have to take my kids on the bus to see the snowfall. David, the electric vehicles have quickly become popular among passengers. The recalls cost and pollute more because of that local school, even with longer to travel in any buttons at the local transport. Corporations land to buy another 300 electric buses and by 2025. 15 percent of its fleet is to be lecturing. But not all the buses can use the theme charging point that limit their operating for or be job somebody. Some of the biggest challenge right now is that in the bus from beckoned infrastructure is Vehicle Company specific . The kind of classes in shimla, any space are different from colo or dom sharla, jessie gardenia, until charging infrastructure is standardized by the government. This problem will continue. Leonard, i you should offer. So setting up your vehicle specific jotting stations, are you sure is a problem . Walmart level been hailed the get the got the hage. Nevertheless, electric lakers are definitely a step in that i direction. Scientists say the idea off you the electrical vehicle itself is a really useful thing. If we cant do, an earth significantly can affect the black carbon emission into this region, an upgrade strength, it can control audio cut in half the livelihood are in half d o d. Do they believe you have snorkel . Electric lakers could certainly help reduce the damaging black salt emissions in the region, but that will take dine. Still. People are already benefiting from the new buses, which reduce noise and contribute to cleaner mountain air, up in the himalayas. The Southern Italian city of naples is the notorious capital of clim little class known as the camera. One district left for decades, has lived in the shadow of the mafia. Gravity and unemployment has become the unlikely center of the cities transition to clean energy. Its a project that demonstrates the uplifting potential of going Green Residence called the brooks, the per district of san giovanni, or to do cio and the Eastern Suburbs of naples. The district is grouped by poverty on employment and the mafia. But its here that natalies Energy Revolution began thought paranoia thought it was good to start from dinner because we want a socially fair energy transition. That course to be do started out. We must fight Climate Change and social injustice together. When he gets back on in fear, and thats what weve done here last year for sharlack, we did a lot that it is a william sam. Italys 1st Energy Community was created on the roof of this building. 166 solar panels produce electricity for 40 families. Energy has become part of a social project here. The former or frontage of the familiar d. Maria foundation is a drop in center for families. A place where children can go to save them from exploitation by the camera. But there are risks involved. 3 out of the home, up on this whole comes from a bullet fired in front of the entrance of the foundation, yet hit this wall with all a blatant sign of organized crime. One of the big problems here, then the dish that they want to show that places like this or not wanted a cd because we educate the children to respect the laws. I do about timing. I mean, our weapons are books or musical instruments, and even solar panels can be for the attack. Gennaro is 11 years old. He comes to the foundation every day, and its made him an environmental activist. Children play an important role. Theyre the ones who persuaded the parents to participate in the energy project. Crash her claim. We installed more solar panels here by hand over there now. And also on this side share with key. It makes me happy thought because it least were doing something for the climate chum. I told my momma that its good for the environment in death. And you also save money. Fizzled pasquale cheery loan has been working for the foundation for 20 years. But for him, its about much more than alternative energy as yeah, cutting that out. I got see locked in that we try to give these kids a chance that at that we tell them that, okay, this is a difficult neighbourhood. There are many ugly things that shes on, but theres also something beautiful was ive been though weve had a place where you can do theater and music and shes all of it were. There are people who will listen to you and who can help you when you have opportunities here. Why not for me, doc . Whether its for football, environment workshop or making music over 100 kids come every day in all seasons. I had her on that didnt show us what youve got. Yeah. Wow. I had with him i said with a home. But when we dying of getting a solid on it, we want the electricity project to show families that we care about in senior. The 1st Energy Community was not created in the city center, but here anybody in naples, east me, were the 1st to do it or plain this. Finally, the residents no longer see themselves as the last ones, the forgotten ones who always get the leftovers. Not know this time, we are the 1st time will only money south isnt freeman roth. The facility cost 100000. 00 euros, financed by the canal, sued foundation. The families are now entrepreneurs who not only used electricity, but also sell it for several months now. The facility has been producing Green Electricity at the foot of a service and take a 2nd. Weve done that already. This Energy Community represents a new path with this district today, known that there are still many unsolved environmental and social problems, and the mafia is still present to that. But this is finally a positive story. Following their example, in the next few months, dozens of new Energy Communities are to be set up all over southern italy. Well, rooftops are one place to store solar panels. But as the world strives to transition to an emissions neutral future, the thought is on full space to put all the for to water systems, the future will require. So where exactly can we put our solar cells . Our reporter explore the options we need less of this and more of this to stay below 1. 5 degrees. But time is running out. Solar still only accounts for 3. 7 percent of Worldwide Energy production. We desperately need more. But where can we put the solar panels they need based on precious land land. We need 4 towns, houses, and st. Intact. Ecosystem and food. Here we have a serious space issue. Were already using a lot of our soil to grow food. But what if we grew crops and generated energy at the same time . Its time for agri voltaic, the idea behind it, double the harvest. To do this, modules are built in such a way that the soil beneath them can still be used for growing plant. What potential types are there . One is sola offensive. The space in between the fences can be used to grow crops for livestock or for flower strips. Or the modules could be built in a way that gives the panels enough space to rotate towards the sun. But how the plant fair growing under or near the panels. Weve been growing lots of different kinds of perhaps things that you would see at your local farmers market. So tomatoes, peppers, squash abra, gene. All these different types of props have seemed to do really well. So the plan still get in a flight to matters and chili peppers even doubled their yield when shaded by solar panels. Thats because if they get too much done, they get stressed and stock photo synthesizing, which means they stop growing in a while that is getting hotter and hotter the modules ensure that less water is needed for irrigation. Just think if you spilled your coffee or your water, your tea in the shade versus the full sun, where will it stay . Were longer in the shade, were finding that every time we irrigated it would stay wet for 2 days instead of 2 hours. But yes, there are few, but not everything can be grown under the panels. Crops like we to millet require full sun to grow. Well, researchers are looking into which panels and set ups would be best for which crop. Some plans need bigger gaps between the panels. Corn and wheat would need taller ones, while shrub soybeans will be fine with a more squat variety. But the trend for the coming years is promising. According to a Market Analysis institute, the Global Market has anticipated to grow by almost 40 percent and the next 5 years in dry regions, or those that rely heavily on agriculture like india, indonesia, and many african and south american countries. Agri, well takes, could save a lot of land and water floating photovoltaics, or float of all take might just be the next big thing. The idea, solar panels are mounted on raft like structures which float on a body of water on the pimples, in coverage. All there is awards which are available on the room, the neural group give about 23. 00. However, what installed capacity, this is thomas finder. He evaluates the economic and technological feasibility of large scale floating p v system. With to put this into perspective on these 23. 00 parallel to generators much electricity is the whole world of needs to be in a year. You can already see what that could look like at one of the biggest floating solar farms in singapore. Here the solar plan floats on the surface of a reservoir and produces enough energy to power about 16000 forum flats in the city state. The biggest floating farm in china even produces 5 times as much energy. The water also cools down the floating panels, making them more efficient. The panels and structures have to withstand wind waves and corrosion. So father, multiple studies have not found any severe impact on either Water Quality or ecosystems. Experts expect flow to voltaic to expand by up to 30 percent annually over the next 5 years, with markets, mainly in asia. But europe, africa, and the us are starting to invest as well. So any other places left to put solar panels up in space yet getting as close to the sun as possible. Here the sun shines 24 hours a day and you need 0 land on earth. So why dont we put solar panels in the earth orbit . The you caleb Space Energy Initiative with around 50 partners from industry, government and science is planning to install a solar power satellite in space by 2035 the us china and japan are also taking part in the solar space power quest. And this is o. At might work satellites in the us g, a stationary orbit, which is around 35000 kilometers from earth, collect solar energy using huge solar panels. They convert the energy into microwave radiation and beaming down to earth on the ground. A net of receiving antennas, or rec, tenors, collect the microwaves and convert them to electricity for the grid. Each satellite might produce 2 gigawatts of continuous power. As much as around 700. 00 utility scale wind turbines, theyd be huge around 1. 7 kilometers in diameter. And well wait several 1000 tons. The satellites would start to beam energy to earth 24 hours a day. The beam is considered to be harmless for animals and humans. Its about a quarter the strength of the midday sun. But energy is lost during the transmission and the conversion process. And the cost of getting the modules into space is well sky high. Even if we manage to build and finance solar power satellites in the next decades, we need more solar power to combat Climate Change now. And they are already far more realistic ways of generating solar energy quickly without losing urgently needed land. And all of them are cheaper, faster, and much more promising. Often, it takes a creative mind to think outside the box, or in the case of our next few bought the solar cell. We met a dutch designer who integrates full of technology into her work in a quest to redefine our relationship with solar power and promote energy efficiency. Her dutch designer, marianna, fun elbow. The sun is her inspiration to all started with this. Its something, its a small and beautiful as this is harvest energy, solar cells take center stage and her designs like in these illuminated Window Decorations till here i try to make instead of like making sol invisible, that it really becomes like the future that it becomes an aesthetic addition to the work, it is a self powering artwork. These solar window panels look like stained glass, but they also have a function. And their solar powered hanging lamp called santa is designed to mimic sunset. The sun is like this beautiful thing. Were like all know very well, and i mean this is moment when youre on the, on the beach and you see the sun setting is magical moment. Thats kind of like what i want to use in the lights. So when the sun goes down, just son, it goes on. And thats like i have everyone has his personal relation with the sun, but its also like that it the fact that its powering objects and his light is super, super fascinating. Murray and fun album works out of this studio in amsterdam. She collaborates with scientists to create objects with a double function. They promote energy efficiency, such as this table, which is also a docking station. It captures daylight and its you can plug your phone or light or you can charge your devices from this. One of her bigger projects was for the dubai expo 2020. She created the colorful solar panels for the dutch pavilion. The solar roof provided power for the pavilion and also allowed in enough sunlight for the plant. Marians design show how verse solar panels can be. These are organic photovoltaics which is like, theyre printed on pets and they dont use any like very heavy metals, which is bad for environments and theyre completely circular. So theyre super light weights has kind of like a new generation of Solar Technology. Marion has also come up with a solution for Food Production in a self powering greenhouse. Its currently on display in the netherlands at the flory out a hold or culture. Exposure for creation enables the production of food in places where theres a lack of electricity for farming space. This is my creation of the future of farming, and its called power plants. And you basically can grow your food everywhere on your rooftop. So you dont have to fly in from the other side of the world, but you can really grow it within your own home. So its uses vertical farming, and this is all powered by solar glass. Even though shes a designer by trade, scientific developments are important to marians work. Solar cell has evolved so much since most dikes and their invention. And i think its time that we start looking up in the sky where we got all the potential. Instead of digging down into grounds, i mean, if you could live in balance with nature and use sources that are coming all the time and are in abundance, i think. Yeah. Then the worlds can be very beautiful place for my infant elbow, the future of Solar Technology certainly looks bright. Ah, now the sun isnt the only thing in the sky that we can harness for energy. A gentleman startup using air. It says its developed a synthetic fuel that makes use of the Greenhouse Gas, carbon dioxide, an exciting prospect reporter who found out more white filling up at a berlin federal station. Hey, have you heard about this . You can fill up with the Greenhouse Gas, c o 2 and use it to drive or fly or power to shift crazy. Fuel made out of thin air. No need to burn fossil fuels any more using something that is c o. 2 neutral, impossible. Asked him. He makes this kind of self. Hey tim, how does it work yet . Do you turning the combustion process
