An innovative plastic upcycling machine is one promising device made in Taiwan. But can technology really save the planet?

Sometimes it seems like a bad dream: floods, air pollution, traffic jams. Sometimes it feels like we’re surrounded by eco-monsters. But they can be defeated. YouTuber Alex Lin presents state-of-the-art devices. Arthur Zhang builds machines for upcycling plastics. And Japanese researchers are even working on mirrors in space.

DW presents: UNSEEN (Five-part documentary series)
Invisible guests in your food, your hometown sinking, unhealthy dust hiding in your lungs. Discover heroes with amazing solutions – and inspiration for a better life!

Keeping your kids safe from air pollution / UNSEEN (1/5): https://youtu.be/KrsGQpSv5Co
How to avoid microplastics in your food / UNSEEN (2/5): https://youtu.be/acMYHAmNLlE
Fighting the floods: how not to lose your city / UNSEEN (3/5): https://youtu.be/9BTrzAGhy8U

How technology makes life easier – and what’s still up to you / UNSEEN (5/5): https://youtu.be/EJi3Vxdyqv0

UNSEEN opens your eyes. We travel through Southeast Asia and discover stories about people whose lives could be yours. In Indonesia, children suffer from air pollution – something doctors, architects and entrepreneurs are fighting with innovative and original concepts. Then we head to Malaysia for an episode in learning how to deal with microplastics in food. We follow a fan of great cuisine on his own personal journey. What’s safe to eat and drink? Which products are good, and which don’t measure up? Next up is Thailand’s capital Bangkok, one of Asia’s sinking cities. Its inhabitants prepare for future floods, adapting their city and seeking tools to make their homes safe. In Vietnam we get caught in gridlock. Nothing new! But this time, we’re stuck with some cool rappers teaching people how not to go crazy in traffic. And finally, in Taiwan, it’s all about green tech. Learn about the hopes and limits of the new technologies being developed to solve life’s challenges. Join us on an exciting trip in five episodes – one that will open your eyes to beastly challenges and promising solutions!

Digital trust and cyber security are crucial for digital business. Who controls our digital identity?

The bits and bytes can serve our interests or be used against us. More than ever before, we have to trust computer systems. In terms of internet usage and social media penetration, Thailand is growing faster than nearly any other nation. How do its startups deal with personal data, privacy settings and cyber security? Our digital data can help or harm us. Without digital trust there can be no digital business. As the digital revolution unfolds, whether we like it or not, we leave behind trails of data. It has become nearly impossible to remain anonymous. Using algorithms, scientists and businesses can now interpret ever larger amounts of information about us. ‘Big Data’ is being utilized in new ways – to make our lives easier and solve our problems, but also to earn money with our personal information. In terms of internet usage and social media penetration, Thailand is growing at an incredible pace. According to a recent survey, Thais spend an average 9.38 hours per day online, but privacy and data protection are not widely discussed in the country. Young people in particular tend to trust more in technology than in political institutions. Our Founders’ Valley host looks at how startups deal with personal data and cyber security. How is social media changing us and the societies we build? And how can we retain control of our digital identity while continuing to reap the benefits?
