,This week's top stories of the week include: 0:14 Wind turbine repurposed into home – It’s built from the control box of a Vattenfall turbine which stood in an Austrian wind farm for 20 years. Most wind farm nacelles today are much larger. But a team from architecture collective Superuse Studios, working with Blade-Made, chose one of the smallest to prove that the concept of a tiny turbine home could work. 1:57 Robot makes its conducting debut – The 3-armed robot performed in a concert in Germany, leading the specially written Semiconductor’s Masterpiece. The piece features 3 wildly diverging time signatures. The orchestra’s artistic director says the robot is not intended to replace humans but to perform complex music too difficult for a person to conduct. 3:41 Europe’s largest Marine Protected Area – It covers almost 300,000 km2 of the ocean floor and encompasses several vulnerable marine ecosystems. Half the new MPA is fully protected, meaning no fishing or extractive activities are allowed. While the other half is highly protected which restricts activities like fishing. 6:41 4 ways to maximize cybersecurity – Cyber insecurity is one of the biggest risks facing the world. As technology evolves and spreads, cyber resilience becomes more important than ever. Cyber resilience is an organization’s ability to minimize the impact of significant cyber incidents on its primary goals and objectives. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

CLAWS uses AI-powered image processing to identify the crops, then targets weeds around the crop with blasts of concentrated light. This gets rid of unwanted intruders without damaging either crops or soil. 1:52 5 ways bioeconomy affects daily living – The bioeconomy uses renewable resources from land or sea to produce food, energy, and other resources. It focuses on leveraging nature's processes and products to create sustainable economic outputs. The bioeconomy is already a part of our daily lives, influencing various sectors and industries. 6:08 Iceland sees benefit of a 4-day work week – The Nordic nation of 380,000 is rolling out a new way of working. Between 2020 and 2022, 51% of Iceland’s workers accepted an offer of shorter hours, such as a 4-day week for no loss of pay. The shift has had a positive impact on work-life balance and personal stress, new research shows. 8:17 Restored Amazon ecosystems beat logging – Amazon Sacred Headwaters Alliance is fighting to safeguard 35 million hectares of rainforest through a collaboration between 30 Indigenous nations of the Amazon basin. There’s an economic case for protecting the Amazon, says Atossa Soltani, Director of Global Strategy, Amazon Sacred Headwaters Alliance. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

How can the world responsibly manage this shift and the risks it presents? First, we must prioritize efficiency says Melissa Lott, Professor of Professional Practice, Columbia Climate School. 3:20 5 emerging technologies – The World Economic Forum has published its Top 10 Emerging Technologies of 2024 report. It draws on the expertise of more than 300 leading academics, researchers and futurists to discover the technologies most likely to impact people and the planet in the next 3-5 years. 5:44 Lab solution for rice emissions – The University of Miami’s SUSTAIN Lab is one of a kind. It’s the world’s most powerful wind-wave tank and the only one that can model Category 5 hurricanes with winds of over 250kph. The tank is built from reinforced acrylic and lets scientists study in forensic detail what happens when hurtling winds strike a coastline. 7:45 How AI can empower the disabled – New technology can advance medical breakthroughs if used responsibly. Christopher Reeve became an activist and advocate for people living with paralysis at a time when spinal injury research was known as the ‘graveyard of neurobiology’. He was also an early adopter of assistive technology. It may one day help people with spinal cord injuries to walk again. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

,This week's top stories of the week include: 0:15 This steelmaker is investing in fusion energy – Fusion can generate 100% zero-carbon electricity and could help decarbonize steel manufacturing. Steelmaker Nucor is partnering with fusion start-up Helion to build the plant. The steel industry accounts for 7% of global CO2 emissions. Largely due to blast furnace steelmakers which use coal as an essential ingredient in the steelmaking process. Nucor uses electric-arc furnaces instead, a recycling-based circular method. 2:12 The green revolution depends on these 5 materials – Globally, renewable energy capacity needs to triple by 2030, according to the UAE Consensus, agreed at COP28. As clean energy technologies use large quantities of minerals, demand for them is likely to soar. To power the energy transition, the world needs to secure a reliable supply of critical minerals while avoiding the threats of irresponsible practices, geopolitical tensions and price inflations. All while avoiding a delay in the adoption of clean technologies. 4:06 What's the state of global cooperation in 2024? – Global cooperation is showing signs of strength in some arenas such as collective commitments on climate and nature and trade and capital flows. However, it’s falling sharply in the arena of geopolitical peace and security and risks going into sustained decline. leaving the world ill-equipped to cope with challenges. 5:59 These practical actions can save energy – They could save the global economy up to $2 trillion per year. If applied to buildings, industry and transport by 2030. This would also avoid the need for 3,000 new power stations. These measures can be put in place today using existing technologies and without reducing economic output. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

,This week's top stories of the week include: 0:15 This is the connection between your gut and the soil – We rely on healthy soil for most of the food we eat but there’s a less well-known fact about soil. It’s a key source of micro-organisms that are crucial for gut health. These help regulate our health, hormones, mood and even our memory. 1:57 AI gives parents and caregivers paid leave – PaidLeave.ai was designed for caregivers in New York. The state offers up to $13,019 a year to care for a child, ill family member, or yourself. But every year, millions of dollars go unclaimed because time-poor claimants get lost in a forest of information and often give up. Users can ask PaidLeave.AI about their eligibility for financial support and PaidLeave.ai responds with a clear action plan emailed to their inbox. 3:29 These clothes are dyed using bacteria – The process uses a special microbe which secretes a pigment as it grows. The hue depends on the pH of its medium so designers can tweak it to produce a navy blue or a vibrant pink. Through synthetic biology, they could expand the palette even wider. Faber Futures is the company behind the process. 5:01 This company makes zero emissions cement – CemVision recycles by-products from mining and steel instead of quarrying virgin limestone. This means its kilns use less energy. They’re also heated renewably. Cement is the second-most consumed ingredient on the planet after water. It’s also a major contributor to global warming. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

,This week's top stories of the week include: 0:15 The EU just agreed a landmark deal on AI regulation – It’s set to become the first world power to enact a law of this kind. The new law will govern uses of AI such as in government surveillance and in publicly available models such as ChatGPT. The deal will be finalized in the coming days. It’s expected to come into force early in 2024. 1:36 5 ways to cut food waste – One-third of the food produced globally is lost or thrown away every year, while more than 800 million people go hungry. Food waste also has a huge impact on the climate, accounting for 8% of global greenhouse gas emissions generated by the production, processing, distribution and decay of food that never even gets eaten. 3:48 Natural forests are the way to tackle climate change – Natural forests are essential to tackling the climate and biodiversity crises but mass tree-planting must not be used as an excuse to avoid emissions cuts. This is according to a new study co-authored by Professor Tom Crowther, which updates a 2019 study that found restoring the world’s forests could store 200 gigatonnes of CO2. 7:12 Women's sports are more popular than ever – Women’s sports will cross the billion-dollar barrier in 2024, says Deloitte to generate $1.28 billion in revenue. A staggering 300% growth in just 3 years. Soccer is set to comprise 43% of the market, followed by basketball at 28%. 52% of revenues from women’s sport are in North America. Sponsorship accounts for 55% as a new wave of megastars forms. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

,This week's top stories of the week include: 0:15 This start-up has redesigned the wind turbine – It’s designed by US start-up Airloom. Which says it can generate the same amount of energy as a traditional turbine but at a fraction of the cost and size. It’s much smaller and uses far fewer materials, making it almost 10 times cheaper to build. Its design can generate electricity at one-third the cost of standard wind turbines. Its turbines should take up less space, too as conventional turbines have to be distanced from one another. 1:45 Cutting salt works as well as medication – Scientists have found that reducing salt intake by just 1 teaspoon per day can lower blood pressure as much as specific drugs for that purpose. Researchers put 213 people aged 50-75 on either a high- or low-sodium diet. After a week, the two groups swapped. The low-sodium diet led to a swift and pronounced drop in blood pressure roughly equal to a ‘first-line blood-pressure medication’, say the authors. 3:27 What is climate justice? – Climate change is a global crisis, but its impacts are felt unequally. For many, it's not just about rising temperatures and melting glaciers, but about the very survival of their communities. 6:11 How AI will open the world to disabled people – Victor Pineda, a Hispanic man in a wheelchair and using a machine to help him breathe, shares his experience of growing up in a world that wasn't designed for him. Denied education in his home country due to his disability, he found an opportunity in the US, where laws protected his right to learn. He sees AI as a chance to create customized learning experiences for diverse learners, a stark contrast to his exclusionary past. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

This innovative technology offers a promising solution to the environmental and ethical concerns associated with conventional animal agriculture. 6:33 Sugar prices are surging. Here's why – Sugar enthusiasts face a grim reality as global sugar prices have skyrocketed by 55% in just two months. This surge stems from severe droughts in India and Thailand, the world's second and third-largest sugar exporters, respectively. 8:11 Climate disaster insurance for island states – A global insurance scheme could protect 100 vulnerable nations against the spiralling costs of storms, droughts and rising seas. Small island developing states face losses of 50-300% of GDP to hurricanes and other climate events. Until now, small island states were seen as untouchable in insurance terms but new research from Cambridge University and the insurer Howden shows coverage remains possible by modelling the likely risks they face and using premiums funded by ‘donor’ countries. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

,This week's top stories of the week include: 0:15 The world has an antibiotic problem – Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), also known as antibiotic resistance, is a major health concern. It occurs when microbes, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi, become resistant to the drugs used to treat them. This makes infections harder to treat and increases the risk of death. 4:48 Indonesia's giant floating solar plant – Indonesia has made a significant stride in renewable energy by unveiling a massive floating solar plant, the third largest of its kind globally. Situated on the Cirata Reservoir, 107 kilometers southeast of Jakarta, the plant's 13 expansive arrays cover 4% of the reservoir's surface, capable of generating up to 192 MW of power. 6:06 2024 Smart Toy Awards – Moflin, a palm-sized AI pet, is among the winners of the Smart Toy Awards. Just like a real pet, Moflin's AI has an "emotional model" that allows it to react to the way it's treated. This interactive play experience fosters a connection between the child and the toy, creating a sense of companionship and responsibility. 7:58 Clean air projects attract global investment – In 2021, international development funding for air quality projects surpassed that of fossil fuel projects for the first time, reaching $2.3 billion, an increase of $800 million from fossil fuel projects. This significant drop from $11.9 billion in 2019, the peak for fossil fuel funding, suggests a potential shift in the global financing landscape away from fossil fuels. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

They include practical changes, such as ‘pay-to-throw’, a scheme in which households pay a fee for the amount of landfill waste they generate. Other measures include recycling collection ‘islands’ around the city, discounts for shoppers who bring their own containers and banning disposable products at all city events. 1:33 Gender balanced companies outperform others – According to a BlackRock study of 1,250 of the world’s biggest companies. Over the past decade, the companies with the most equal gender balance achieved a 7.7% average annual return on assets (RoA). Those with the highest share of men delivered a 5.6% RoA, while those with the highest share of women returned a 6.1% RoA. The study concluded it was ‘diversity that counts’ rather than the dominance of a single gender. 3:08 US wants to convert empty offices into homes – The government will offer funding and technical support to help cities turn unused workspaces into affordable apartments. US office vacancy rates have hit a 30-year peak as more staff clock in to work remotely. Meanwhile, rents in the country remain at historic highs after a surge during the pandemic converting offices to apartments can be challenging. 4:48 Rwanda and Kenya open borders to other Africans – Rwanda and Kenya have made significant strides in promoting African unity by opening their borders to other Africans, enabling visa-free travel for all citizens of the continent. This move positions Rwanda as the fourth African nation to remove such restrictions, following Benin, The Gambia, and Seychelles. Kenya is set to join them on December 31, 2023. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.

Formigas-de-embaúba is a Brazilian NGO that creates mini-forests in public schools using MapBiomas’ technology while educating a new generation of conservationists. 2:15 How Bangladesh builds climate resilience – Bangladesh is one of the world’s most climate-vulnerable countries. The country is prone to disasters such as cyclones, flooding and landslides. But in the past 50 years Bangladesh has made a lot of progress on climate resilience. Its journey began when it was hit by the deadliest cyclone in recorded history. In 1970 Cyclone Bhola took the lives of 300,000 people. Today, cyclones of comparable intensity cause 99% fewer fatalities in Bangladesh thanks to decades of investment in climate resilience. 4:24 Why young people want to volunteer differently – Numerous global causes continue to need volunteer support from humanitarian crises to food banks, care for the elderly and mental health support. However, the way people offer their time is transforming, according to International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. 8:00 This coal mine is now a sustainable energy source – The UK’s coal industry left behind an extensive underground legacy. It’s thought that 25% of UK homes and businesses sit above coalfields. After decades of disuse, many of these tunnels have filled with water. This water is warmed naturally by geothermal energy and can then be used to heat buildings above ground. _____________________________________________ The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation.
