10:30 am
we say never giving the most exciting to stories about people that happens every weekend, dw, the or is the new young? well, let me explain. hello and welcome on saw the got the body and you all watching equally from fremont, good fashion. refurbished phone and i'm flight or z was in the fatty gee size of the water and that also one of my favorite cents. and this will be yours. ok. great.
10:31 am
e waste is going phenomenally in india, and i think it's time that really considered our consumption factor. should you'll be buying a new phone or repair in your home or maybe buying or refurbished for a better idea. and what is these lights to dispatch you will find the answers to these questions. i'm not a little about and or take that to india is using in new ways to be with this massive problem of you waste in this next report by other fees. as we go, i'm going to place the big tech companies would draw the didn't exist. it's a sunday evening and this market in north debbie is la still 1390000000 mobile phones, the sol globally at all 5000000000 mobiles estimated to be thrown away. but right here could be a solution for much of this waste. i'm in the north indian market and there's really nothing you've con, get to the people are just using whatever they have it on them to
10:32 am
fix what's broken. because changes in the way products are made is changing this market and others like it without even for the 5 o, 62 of us m o u k, the m o u, that one. 0 yeah, i'll shoot you to the demo. and because people are choosing to buy new rather than repair e waste, and they'll mix up the majority of our overall toxic waste and it's happening all over the world. so many people are now working to bring this route, ban mindset back in the retain this ingenuity and the culture of fixing was broken. but also keeping us a, going to me, i'm here in delhi, there is back to figure out how all of this is going to fails. i've done my phone for 4 and a half years now, which is a relatively, very long time to on a smartphone. i'm going to challenge with my so i'll just see how much longer i can
10:33 am
move, get lost, but i've also been very careless, uncompleted reward my display as i looked it up and it costs 30000, refuse to buy new for them the same models. so i'm here to see whether it's worth getting into bed instead of a lot of i'm just not sure whether it's worth being a ton of them getting a new phone with a new buy cheap and the, the, the showroom quoted $16000.00 rupees, which is more than half the price of the phone. so i'm not going to, i'm going to get a few more quotes from a different place. this is an informal and semi form, an electronic deposit. this is a gray area. some vendors may be authorized, the, those are, those may not be registered and not all of them pay taxes. yes. because they told me they can offer the cheapest services by cutting deals over or under the table a find some look around or the other 7000 or are the best thing to get into get out of there. may i be
10:34 am
quite interesting that everybody has quoted me a different single which means that of course doesn't stand out and you have to have one, you have to find the best price which does take a lot of time to think about. india has a long history of repairing, over replacing most street going those ones, how to cobbler, sheila, who fix solid ease of state and families for many generations. but it gets monique, this tradesman specializes in only fixing the economic boom of the 1990 the 2000 and change this color completely with more money in their pockets and things getting cheapest. people started buying mall and something else happened in india went outside digits of every kind of payment is now done online from rick shows to coconut, brought to having a phone is now basically mandatory phones and in the us for cheap and accessible
10:35 am
that are more people with phones than bed all mattresses or chairs electronic devices to became an outlier to the old indian japan culture media because electronics companies don't allow for repair. gadgets have been accused of being designed for the dumb. it's called planned obsolescence companies have been taken to quote over it's, for example this here apple is prepaying to be up to $500000000.00 in the us and settlements in the case of accusing them of slowing down older iphones. the italian government find samsung 5000000 euros in a similar case, but found that updates slowed down devices. as a result of all this, e waste has drawn phenomenally in india, and many countries have had similar results from the stories of development. and after them's very little of this waste is formally recycled. this is where electronics come in. this is the biggest electronics waste from off in the that truck loads of discarded electronics come here every day and i'm dumped
10:36 am
onto local traders. these people separate them and self pos on recyclers or other kinds of strap dealers. they're literally e waste everywhere. look at that here . so it goes, break down the text to recover anything of value the results of this kind of informal dumping. i mean of this by what's meant to be a storm drain, but there's no space for water to flow. we saw a lot of people including and especially children, collecting anything of value. and this scavenging comes at a high price. the lived academy and mobility and e way as has been known to cause skin conditions in the 1st instance. but it's also been linked to problems with the
10:37 am
liver and development of the brain, including a newborns it was very hard to film here and nobody really wanted to talk to me on camera. i met studies and ha, a research show of chemical pollution to ask what needs to happen to stop this to both on the production site, autumn consumption site. it will have to make a lot of adjustments on the production site that can see that how do you design products get us? suppose they're going to design the product, which is mardell, letting nature. but that's what a vi a we'll just, we'll just finding a product because you cannot take you to the next level. the 2nd thing is about lowering consumption is also because if we design products, but if it last with me for a long time, i am not likely to desponding, so my risk generation becomes reduces. the thing is about we need to formalize or pass. we need to formalize refurbishments and by law also there is only that. how
10:38 am
do we encourage this? i think that we have not been able to break to this 3rd thing is something the government is starting to work on. it launched a $14.20 to ensure that citizens have the right to repair around 50 companies have signed up sofa on paper. these include manufacturers of farm equipment, consumers, you roubles, and also one both as well as electronics. i meant the man in charge of commerce thing, the highest chunky administrative office, the ministry of consumer affairs who went over the main points in case the product required. zip is a routine maintenance. it shouldn't be expensive, it should be easily accessible. and it should be noted li, available in the system of the consumer. so you put all that together and the a green that i to repair a framework. more specifically, this would include access to information on how to rebecca,
10:39 am
providing cheap and original step ups to consume of i'm fluid bodies and it also includes more specific called so action like that. all charges must be u. s. b c. by june 2025. you don't want to become in an impediment in the ease of doing business also. you know, it's a, it's a tricky thing. so i'm the one hand you want more business name. yeah. you want economy to grow, you want more of the i. so you want to make things simple and streamlined, but you also have to protect the consumer, protect the planet, and these things can be competing. right now there's one main problem. this framework is bought entry. it hasn't been able to past as a bill environment. and that is, it can be a long process. this is on with donia or profess of law at alliance university and manual who has looked into where india's ad with the right to repair. but it's possible at the bottom and also one buffet, right? yes, visible is possible because remember that we are talking about also the interest
10:40 am
of and um let's say produce a groups that are quite powerful in the india they was the case. it was decided to um, in the mean to 2000 and change the government the case. in this case, a lawyer name should cut the 14 com manufacturers to quote, which only allowed for repairs and exclusive repair shops. he argued that these manufactures monopolize the spare parts market and will be using this dominance sometimes mocking up the price of spare pods. 5000 percent. the manufacturer was plugged back in the arguments. was that what would be no? so let's say we think give such an tools because you mostly for allow me more people to repair those costs or those consumer goods we go to, it's going to infringe on intellectual property rights. in that case, the court decided against them mandating that they allow consumers to go wherever they choose, based on what they can access and afford the problem that if you have, if you have more kids with intellectual property,
10:41 am
i noticed but do you mean discoveries investments into that industry, for example, the funds that produce those electronic goods maybe does this, and we have reduced incentives to enter the market. then they, after getting the market because it will say, well, but then when we are using these options for university goes out in different budget breaks is not predicted because of the right to the fact that has already been pushed back even against a simple us b c, charging road, i believe india has asked for an exemption or a delay, seeing if it otherwise struggled to meet production targets. but there are economic arguments for repairs. at the moment, most of the material that goes into making electronics remains on accounting for. these include important resources like lithium, which we will need a lot more off in the future. so these are of huge national value. many countries i'm pushing ahead on this. in early 2024. the european parliament
10:42 am
took the leap forward and voted strongly in favor of strengthening the right to repair. in all 27 countries of the summer, even hanging on her bed vouchers paid for by national group of funds from to setup . what might become a norm across many products. unrepairable to index, much like the one that shows you the energy efficiency of say, a refrigerator to give the consumer more agency. the u. s. has not fall behind them . such decisions would have impacts some countries like india and beyond the some of the products, standard global supply chains. so they manufactured for was so the word has to be done. the same page is a difficult task, the to but then we also engage with you and they are doing from a specific date, they're making expenditures. so reset, okay. uh you plus 6 months is estimated to be a $20000000000.00 domestic market for repair and a $5000000.00 domestic market for refurbishment in india. so start to upset,
10:43 am
jumping in by setting up repair and refurbishment units. cdb. i am buying the and gadget wouldn't know. i know examples board with huge foreign investments have been written, been proposition for the consumer for the guy who's looking as and get some employment and the company expensive and the club because we want to get some benefits because it's cheaper and accessible. and the guys being able to make a living. but this all still existing pockets in very early stages. the big challenges, the hundreds of thousands of people whose livelihood depends on the best, formalizing such a mass of informal economy, developing skills, registering, and ensuring the paid tax is not going to be an easy task. even if the government says the intention is that it's also going to be a challenge to keep account of all these resources. but that is the whole, the thing i've decided
10:44 am
not to change the display of my phone because it's about a part of the costs of buying the new phone itself, which is just too expensive, especially considering. i don't have a guarantee that the new display will last for long enough time to make the investment was that? so i think i'm just going to wait from my phone to the dice and buy a new one. but if and when that i to the bed does come into play, my decision might be quite different. developing countries like india have a unique opportunity to still tap into that college of renewals and repair and retain them for a most sustainable and equitable future. and there are more he goes on oswald than ever before. and this means of the dia, manufacturing industry is growing. and that means that more and more dials are ending up in i'm not to saddle what, what was a lot of times these are exporting their disorders. ios watkins, i'm dealing with them is a major challenge because not only are they more on biodiesel or the ones, but they're also very, very hot. so is that i need to acknowledge that can help us with this problem or of
10:45 am
knowing of stacking all of it. let's find out is find some money, has no shortage of lines right now. his company, but he's not far from home by specializes in reciting. diet, he started out in the business for decades ago regarding the fact that with the funds for companies that the 1st choice. the 2nd one is the uh, data for it goes without knowing this printer wireless. so be going so as buyers from them, the amount of these values, the says buy is my theme is almost doubled over the past 5 years. his main customers are replay. most companies just like the booming market diet recycling is a growing business in india. last year and it gave new life to some one and a half 1000000. dias, industrial split se,
10:46 am
but it could be more, the majority still end up being refused dumps in order to have safety schools. a strategies come up from the government or from the industry side. this important that we don't dump it to mentions because that could cause problems such as the infestation of the tests on to be tires or even if you're in some of it, the international tires can actually be very definitely to be in by his budding, most tires can pollute the environment, is to put it into landfill. that's also damaged ecosystem. the sound of nevada, 75 kilometers outside moved by is home to one of india's leading style recycling. the company uses the waste my data to produce a material uses as far as reinforcement enroll construction or the boss can use it as up. so i could or was 6, maybe, and used tires toby. and with
10:47 am
a lot that how many i add them recommended, although we started as a gift, if they are down there, they are then process to the machines. your 1st, the 1st one is called a dias, hurt or ash, or no say that the tires are suspended 1st in 50 millimeter pieces before being sentenced to and now they're measuring colder respond reach for the reduces them to a size of $25.00 millimeters. these are also called the tire size in size and $25.00 and the size length of protective to the next step involves chopping up those chips into even smaller pieces and then fucking them up for delivery. the fine granulated is lita mixed with drugs to stones and put them in to create as all materials cause crumbs. it makes road surfaces more robust and do that, but the government policies and in fact, the lord engineering policy saves the surface of world,
10:48 am
shouldn't have a better product which would handle the good uh, you know, which sort of wave. in fact though, you know, at the higher temperatures, richardson lives with the water also which can carry the highest terrific loads. so i think the number to the bottom in the book to mean what, what comes with it in the head and weaknesses? area. the material is being used in the construction of a 67 kilometer stretch of the denny chapel highway. the contractor on the project says the modified benjamin boost the performance of as far as concrete. he's got ben, if you're to be a char, i would that will improve the right quality of the ruined or when compared to regular as far as the to, to be smoother. and the more traffic that old gets off, the more able to help reduce frictional scars or your present it or died or back. i'm about experts. see that the recycling scrap tires for new roads is
10:49 am
an environmentally friendly alternative to all those 2nd life options, such as binding them to produce industrial oil. the production of crum rubber modified benjamin, however, is extremely energy intensive. due to the high temperature was required steady compared to conventional us, but it didn't reach considerably newest c o 2 emissions and yet, despite the positive is all construction companies in india remain reluctant to use this up a bit too much. i believe there is like a vacation mode to be in the street to use or to shred the rubber into the site to the product number one, which also means that you have not get a stop to use the robot in good right? sense number 2 is there is there still demand?
10:50 am
it can be standard guidelines for the specifications that you should start using the recycling products. the government has introduced rules under which style manufacturers and importers must recycle their products. companies have been too slow to respond and are demanding financial supports to implement the regulations. scientists mean by going through a range of opportunities for using the psycho styles. we've also, uh, used to the mean for bidding pictures inbox. so if you want to do better dikes or ports that could be used if you want to use it for some other purpose, i think that is a good number of uses of rubber in, in, in similar to structure as well via the tires of 1st use it takes 15000 scrap tires to produce crum benjamin for one can normally do
10:51 am
a fluid with the network that spends 6700000 kilometers. india is old who is immense pretension of psycho waste diet. plastic is not good for not in line. and we annoyed so on environmental list informed us that he decided to clean up all the beaches and read them or forcing the news. but he did not stop there. he decided to turn it into something more useful and beautiful and teach others how to do the same. for example, or 2 does not end up on the short. but instead, it's sean phones into something like this. i got seen even useful. i need to key from josh. what is jody beach in seminar is a force in plastic waste. substitute eigenvalues used to hand pick the rubbish and dispos adults in garbage bins onto. he'd realize that that didn't make it disappear
10:52 am
. today, he was plastic. josh, as a result of rome, what do you do that he don't into attractive items inspired by the years he lived and worked in australia, when moved austic is recycled not to know what is left the funding to live on the 3rd party cargo. i spent my childhood here in products, everything and i went to the quote here for 10 years on the time you and i loved the beach and i am phones of the see almost every day, almost every day i would come and play by the sea shore well, i know in the middle, so i have lots of memories from that time. i and i go to amazing beauty to be a lot to me. and so i returned and i think i the not gonna be. but after i came back, i noticed lots of things with into the same buying them out there with piles of garbage on the sea shore. i sense the urge to try to change something i foot for knit the plastics problem. especially multi layer plastics, like potato tea bags. for example, i can be recycled. that's
10:53 am
a huge board and one out environment, but nobody at nothing either. busy video, but he's no focusing on his skills to people in and around for bucetti in the book . but it's in that article mode, the plastic garbage unenrolled. it's not affected him d p s, there is no proper solution. instead of collecting and cleaning the garbage to create cost products, it wouldn't be easier if everyone separated the trash at. so some of that be we could do the software from the 2nd to using what it is used to package metal either legitimately previously find the alarm about on the via the item, whichever the optics can be sold. the environmental activist advice has them and about how to make money with big trucks outside these items, like this box, for example, was sold as a 0 waste customer input to chevy. it's a win win situation and, and i'm from, so now you're putting down the problem livelihood. so based on the slick on it,
10:54 am
but these, these low describe it as being washed ashore like plastic and other trash. they had no idea of what to do about it. but no, we use it to make baskets, 10 bags, and other cloth to create hello my name in mississippi. g comes to collect the product, please. it's $200.00 and then 2 piece for small gasket that's mode. then 2, your earliest about 300 to peaceful, big bus gates on 80400 bucks and 900 for children's. and the important thing is now of a village is very p. there is no plus 5 another for the le let you put in a lot of good as the leaves let in the changes alone. then i saw those village them and making a living. doing this, i got inspired to whole empty out of, of the are all very happy about and get up and put them both on the a lot of your loved ones to spread a certain sort of sponsibility from my side. didn't know. i didn't know step. this
