About Sustainable Fashion: How Eco-Friendly Fabrics Could Change the Industry | Shapers of Tomorrow (3/8)

The use of chemical products, water pollution, bulk transport, improper working conditions for employees; this harmful impact on the environment and populations is often brought to our attention. So how can we make clothes without harming the planet? Is it possible to make fabrics out of nothing but natural fibers? What will the clothes of the future look like?

Get slimmer by eating chocolate - how scientific studies will make us believe the stupidest things! Day in day out we are bombarded by all kinds of promises on how to lose weight, almost all of which fail to deliver. Of the millions of dieters, only a handful will have long-term success, and yet there are countless studies claiming the opposite. Leading weight loss companies happily confront dieters with the scientifically backed claim that failing a diet would be their own fault. After all, world-renowned experts of all fields have proven the effectiveness of weight loss programs. Or have they? On their journey through Germany and France, Diana Löbl and Peter Onnecken investigate how the weight loss industry systematically buy scientific research and use it in their favor. Time and time again dubious studies are being published and serve only one purpose: fuelling the multi billion euro weight loss industry. German experts point the finger at a cartel of nutritionists who recommend questionable weight loss diets and promise healthy results based on questionable short-term studies. Similar results cannot be detected

The Architects of Money: Who Decides the Price of Your Life?

The Architects of Money: Who Decides the Price of Your Life? Money looks simple: a number in your bank account, a mortgage payment, a salary, a savings balance. But behind every number are institutions most people rarely think about — and yet their decisions shape the cost of almost everything. This episode explores the power of the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank: how they were built, how they control interest rates, how they responded to the 2008 financial crisis, and why their choices affect inflation, housing, jobs, debt and the future of the global economy. Because modern money is no longer just cash. It is trust, debt, policy, technology and institutional power. And the real question is: who actually controls the price of your money?

Nokia - We Were Connecting People | Documentary about the former market leader in mobile phones

This film tells the rise and fall of Nokia and the Finnish mobile phone industry from grassroots, the point of view of the basic engineers and experienced by those who made the miracle happen and then faced the destruction. Many ended unemployed, some moved to new areas of work, and few found a new innovative entrepreneur in themselves. Today, something new may be smouldering in the ruins of Nokia. A film by Arto Koskinen Once upon a time there was a large Finnish company that manufactured the world’s best and most innovative mobile phones. The company was called Nokia. Nokia’s annual budget was larger than that of the Government of Finland. People who got a job in that company rose to an undefined higher caste in which abundance was guaranteed till the end of their life. They were often envied for this reason. Luckily other Finns were also able to enjoy the Nokia name. Even an Egyptian market vendor would call Finnish tourists ”Mr or Mrs Nokia” upon hearing from where they came. Mobile phones changed the world. They have
