Hello guys - Ricky here with you this Saturday with some pretty

:00:00.:00:07.

We'll show you the robot that can help with the washing up And

:00:08.:00:11.

find out why they world's uniting to battle the litter droppers!

:00:12.:00:20.

But first to the question of whether people power could be converted

:00:21.:00:24.

A UK company's just built a high-tech footy pitch in one

:00:25.:00:30.

of Brazil's poorest slums that uses the foot movement of players to turn

:00:31.:00:34.

They think it could just be the beginning.

:00:35.:00:44.

The World Cup may well be over but Brazil is showing of a brand-new

:00:45.:00:51.

specially built a playing surface. This is the world 's first people

:00:52.:00:58.

powered football pitch. The more you run, the more energy is

:00:59.:01:02.

powered football pitch. The more you power the floodlit lights. This

:01:03.:01:04.

technology behind it was developed by a UK company and these kids first

:01:05.:01:10.

to give it a go. How does it work? These special tiles laid under the

:01:11.:01:15.

surface turn of the energy of movement into electricity. That,

:01:16.:01:19.

combined with solar panels, helps produce energy, enough to power the

:01:20.:01:25.

lights overhead. It doesn't stop there, it is hoped the technology

:01:26.:01:29.

will be used to help fuel the future by storing the energy created by us

:01:30.:01:33.

as we walk, not just playing football, but in shopping centres,

:01:34.:01:38.

train stations, where there are a of people. It can be used in busy areas

:01:39.:01:45.

where people are walking, safety lighting and football pitches,

:01:46.:01:48.

anywhere where there are lots of people and it can go straight into

:01:49.:01:52.

the local grid as a direct power source. It is hoped developments

:01:53.:01:56.

like this in places like Brazil will help show kids that their dreams are

:01:57.:01:59.

not limited to footballing fame by Brazilian legend Kelly but that

:02:00.:02:03.

science and technology is the future and the mind children that there are

:02:04.:02:09.

other opportunities out there for young people, not just football. I

:02:10.:02:15.

think is the important for the new generation to think not only as

:02:16.:02:23.

football but for science and kids need to be more aware of this. This

:02:24.:02:30.

is a fantastic opportunity. The technology is new and old not come

:02:31.:02:33.

cheap but powering a football pitch is one small example of what may one

:02:34.:02:39.

be -1 day may be fuelling the cities in the future.

:02:40.:02:42.

How would you feel about clearing up some else's rubbish?

:02:43.:02:44.

Today the world unites to reduce the amount of litter

:02:45.:02:47.

The Let?s Do It campaign launched in Estonia and has

:02:48.:02:51.

Today thousands of volunteers will give up a few

:02:52.:02:54.

hours of their day to help clear up the communities they live in.

:02:55.:02:57.

These helpers at a woodland in the North West of England told us

:02:58.:03:01.

We have about 40 clean-ups taking place and are hoping to bring out as

:03:02.:03:17.

many people as possible. I am just disgusted with all the rubbish

:03:18.:03:22.

around being put here by irresponsible people. It is

:03:23.:03:25.

distressing that we have to come together as a community to solve

:03:26.:03:29.

this problem but it is very inspiring if we can make this an

important to us. Playing man city at home becomes a very important game.

:03:58.:04:02.

When you play against a big team, it is a motivated game for both

Strangest. You've probably heard of the F but

:04:13.:04:27.

black bear cub decided to put his dancing shoes on and take the golf
