The Design Edition
An Afghan refugee is using drones to save other refugees' lives
A former refugee remembers his sea crossing. Now he wants to help others, by making a drone that collects life-saving information about migrant boats.
Also, we learn how a brewery converts waste into clean energy, and about the impact bike sharing programs have on their cities. Plus, Roberi Parra, a designer from Venezuela, tells us what it鈥檚 like to be on Project Runway, a reality TV show set in the US. And muralist Mona Caro tells us why we should pay attention to all plants, even weeds.
