Scripts
But can we really feed a population of 9 billion people which we will have by 2050? And it will
peak according to the United Nations median projection at about 9.2, 9.3 in about 2070. But can we
really feed that number of people? Well, at the moment, we need a large proportion of the earth to feed
6.9 billion people. So if we add another 2 billion people and we enable them to eat chickens and pigs and
all these things we like to eat, then we're going to need a lot more land. Now it would be nice to do all
this organically, but the problem with that is we're going to need a lot more land for the cattle whose
manure is going to be used as fertilizer, etc. So we're going to need even more land. If we were using the
mostly organic farming technologies of the 1950s today we would need approximately twice as much
land to produce the same amount of food as we produce today. So let's not do that. And let's treble
yields. If we treble yields in farming we could actually feed 9 billion people from a smaller acreage than
we feed 6.9 billion today. So can we treble yields?
Well we've just done it. In the last 60 years we trebled yields. This is the yields of rice, wheat and
maize, the big three cereal crops which provide about 60% of human calories. And they trebled over that
time despite taking effectively no extra acres under the plow. Nobody thought this could be done. We
3
were told repeatedly throughout this period by environmentalists such as Lester Brown that it could not
be done. And yet it was done.
And how was it done? It was done by getting dwarfing genes into wheat so that they put more of
their energy into seeds rather than stalks. It was done by the use of machinery and chemicals and
fertilizers and all these things that raised yields in farming.

Scripts
Interviewer: Today, we’re taking to marine biologists Gina Kelso and Thomas Lundman, who you will
recently have seen in their award-winning TV series about Antarctica. So, Thomas, what’s it
like to suddenly become a household name?
Thomas: Well, we’re being interviewed for all sorts of publications and programmes since our
television series about the wildlife on Antarctica won a major award. I’m often asked if I’ve
always been interested in marine wildlife, and I find that hard to answer. What about you, Gina?
Gina: That’s an easy one for me, Thomas. I grew up on African shores, where my father worked for
an international company. I could swim by the age of four, snorkel at five. I guess I was
destined for marine biology because I’ve always been as happy in the water as on land. I
remember a particular evening (1:40) when I was about eleven. It was dusk and I was
snorkeling, and I came across hundreds of stingrays entwined together. It was extraordinary;
another world, and that was the moment that decided me. Although I later went to school in the
middle of England, I’d lie awake at night dreaming of the ocean. Fortunately, I got into
university to do zoology and went on to do research in marine biology.
Thomas: And, like me, you’re been in wildlife filmmaking for how long… about eight years now?
Gina: Yeah, I knew it was what I wanted to do, but instead of following the normal route of joining a
TV company as a researcher, I was lucky enough to be chosen to take part in that first wildlife
programme we did together. Do you remember?
Thomas: Yeah, where we made the first ever live broadcast under the sea. The practice run was
very funny. I had to dive into a swimming pool and give a running commentary on some plastic
plants that had been borrowed from a studio to make it look more realistic. Fortunately, the
programme itself was a success and so one thing led to another after that, and we both moved
more into the production side.
Gina: And, it was tough making this latest series in Antarctica, wasn’t it?
Thomas: Well, the series is introduced by a well-known naturalist, dressed in a thermal anorak with
the hood drawn so tightly that you can only see his nose.
Gina: And you get an idea of what conditions were like, but he was only the presenter – flown in to do
his bit a flown back out again. We spent eight months there filming with a team of cameramen
and researchers, living on a specially adapted boat.
Thomas: I didn’t think I’d stand a chance of working on the programme, because I imagined they’d
be looking for rugged types and I’m more the quiet academic. So I was quite taken aback when
they asked me. We went for spring and then returned the following spring, because the winter
would’ve been too cold. Even then, on the Antarctic peninsula it can drop to minus fifteen
degrees.
Gina: We were involved mostly with the underwater scenes. It’s a lot of warmer in the sea, but we still
had to wear extra-thick wetsuits and thermal underwear. The thing about living in the remote
research community was I missed hanging out with my friends.
Thomas: But the Antarctic’s a place of incredible beauty and even after working sixteen-hour days,
there were still moments of peacefulness.
Gina: But being with the animals for so long, we got to see things the other scientists hadn’t. One
guy’s been studying fur seals for years – knows everything about them – but he’s never seen
them eat. He was thrilled when we were able to tell him about it. And if we’d had his input at
the time, we would have realized the significance of what we’d seen and focused more on it.
Thomas: Absolutely. And the highlight of the trip was the day we entered a bay carved into huge
glaciers to find around forty humpback whales feeding. It was very quiet, and we heard a soft
4
 explosion. It was the noise of the whales’ blowholes. What they do is dive down, and as they
start to come up again they release air bubbles from their blowholes. Then they swim round
each other, trapping the krill they eat in a curtain of bubbles. So it’s an extraordinarily effective
piece of teamwork that really increases their feeding efficiency. We filmed them for ten days
because we wanted a shot of them as they finished eating. We waited and waited and then one
day they just suddenly stopped.
Int.: And that’s……

Did you know that your hair,
0:01
or even your pets fur, can be used to soak up oil spills?
0:04
Well, one nonprofit is doing just that.
0:07
They're collecting hair
0:08
that would typically end up in a landfill
0:10
and through a simple process,
0:11
making, well hair mats, that are being used
0:14
to keep the planet clean and you could help.
0:16
How so? Stick around.
0:18
Because that's what we're checking out
0:19
in this week's episode.
0:20
Why hair? What makes it good at cleaning up oil spills?
0:23
And how can you help make a difference?
0:25
And we'll talk to that one nonprofit
0:26
that's upcycling all of this, into this.

Oil Spills
0:37
5
Throughout your life, you've definitely come across
0:39
news reports of massive oil spills,
0:41
sea creatures covered in oil,
0:43
and the ocean waters covered in thin oil slicks.
0:45
In fact, according to Statista,
0:47
there were approximately 1000 metric tons
0:49
of oil lost into the environment
0:51
from oil tanker spills alone in 2020.
0:53
That's not even counting for the other ways
0:55
in which the fossil fuel gets into the environment.
0:57
Oil spills are mostly the result of accidents,
0:59
breakdown of equipment, natural disasters,
1:01
acts of war or illegal dumping.
1:03
And as sad as it already sounds,
1:05
these large spills are devastating to the environment,
1:07
killing thousands of marine animals, destroying habitats,
1:10
and having huge impacts on local
1:11
fishing and tourist industries.
1:13
And that's where you come in.
1:14
Yes, you. Your hair.
1:15
Your own hair from your scalp
1:16
can actually help pick up oil from these spills.
1:19
Want to hear more?
1:20
This is Lisa Gautier, who's made it her mission
1:22
for more than 20 years to find interesting ways
1:24
to turn waste into usable resources.
Matter of Trust
1:27
- You can turn waste into resources
6
1:29
if you have a pure feedstock of a certain material
1:34
that makes all the difference in the world.
1:36
- So that's what they set out to do.
1:38
In 1998, Lisa a co-founded Matter Of Trust,
1:41
an environmental nonprofit headquartered in San Francisco
1:43
with her husband, Patrice Gautier.
1:45
The nonprofit implements transformational programs
1:47
that promote renewable resources,
1:49
recycling, reuse, and repair.
1:51
11 years after Matter Of Trust was founded in 2019,
1:54
Lisa encountered an oil spill in the Galapagos Islands
1:56
that spilled 600 gallons of oil into its waters.
1:59
Taking interest in this spill,
2:00
She was inspired by a story she heard about
2:02
Alabama salon owner and inventor, Phil McCrory,
2:05
who came up with the idea
2:06
of using fiber to clean up oil spills
2:08
while shampooing an oily head of hair.
2:10
In 2000, she and Phil partnered together
2:12
and began Matter of Trust, Clean Wave Program,
2:14
which felts fibers, like hair, into mats
2:16
to soak up gas, oils and other petroleum products.
Clean Wave Program
2:19
- It just sort of clicked for him
2:20
that here he was shampooing an oily head of hair,
2:23
on the floor of his salon was all of this hair.
2:26
And he's like, we shampoo because hair collects oil.
Hair Mats
7
2:30
And my garbage is just 99% hair.
2:34
And we could take all of this
2:35
and recycle it and do something.
2:37
- So now it makes sense, right?
2:38
Those greasy hair days some of us have to deal with,
2:40
are because your hair is really good at,
2:42
well, absorbing all of those oils
2:44
and holding onto them until your next wash.
2:46
So now, instead of these fibers landing in landfills,
2:48
they're made into hair mats
2:49
where they can have a second life.
2:50
And it's not only human hair
2:52
that gets felted into these mats.
2:53
Fur from pet groomers
2:54
and fleece from farmers are also accepted.
2:56
So your furry best friend can make a change too.
2:58
But how does it all work?
2:59
Well, when oil comes in contact with a strand of hair,
3:01
the oil clings to the surface,
3:03
through a process called adsorption.
3:04
That's with a D.
3:05
And a lot of oil can cling to the surface of hair.
3:08
Researchers have found that each hair
3:09
can hold three to nine times its weight in oil.
3:12
Which means one of these hair mats
3:13
can remove a whole gallon of oil
3:15
from water in just two minutes.
8
3:17
Pretty cool, right?
3:18
But how does hair become a hair mat?
3:20
Good question. Let's get into it.
3:22
The first step is to collect donations.
3:23
We'll go over how you can donate
3:25
your own hair a little more later.
3:26
But the hair and fur is received at one
3:28
of about 30 donor felting sites around the world
3:31
where it has left alone and stored for at least a month.
3:33
- That just makes sure that we don't have any,
3:35
you know, lice, from the animals we don't have any fleas.
3:39
We don't get any ringworm from the alpaca.
3:41
And you know, all of that good stuff.
Making Hair Mats
3:42
- And once all of that good stuff is gone,
3:45
then long and short hair are sorted and separated.
3:47
Any hair over four inches in length
3:49
is put through a needle felting machine first.
3:51
This creates a scrim,
3:53
which is like a sort of fabric mesh.
3:54
Then in between two of these hair scrims
3:57
is filled with the shorter one to four inch pieces of hair,
4:00
forming a sort of hair pillowcase.
4:02
Then the edges are folded over to make them strong.
4:04
And the whole thing is run through a needle punch machine
4:05
and a completed mat pops out.
4:07
Once complete, the hair mats are shipped to individuals,
4:09
9
government offices, or people in public works.
4:11
The mats are then ready to be used to clean up oil spills
4:14
but that's not all they're good for.
4:15
The mats are also used to keep storm drains clean,
4:17
to collect oil spilled in auto shops and a lot more.
4:20
What happens when all that hair
4:21
has three to nine times its weight in oil?
4:23
Well, they've gotta be properly disposed of.
4:25
And the people or organizations who use these hair mats
4:27
are the ones that are actually responsible for disposal.
4:29
Hazmat pickup sites either send the hair to landfills,
4:31
or they incinerate them for energy.
