3:35 pm
was, the one who made it happen that will that will, that will, that with, with you to do is consent not only with saving existing trees, but also with reforestation. so far she and her fellow campaign is have planted more than $15000.00 new trees. but ever longer dry seasons make it difficult for the young trees to survive. my little eastern india is feeling the consequences of climate change on a mass of scale. it can be, look up fine, there's oh, no, 20 years ago. we still have long periods of rain phone during the monsoon season. that's the optimal some. but now we're seeing the impact of deforestation in the eighty's us and it hardly rains during the monsoon season. it is no longer cold in winter, but what's on the changes to the climate are very noticeable and come back out to
3:36 pm
the time that they hold of the autumn of the year. they celebrate a very special event in the forest. at the rocky ceremony, the women of the surrounding villages meet and tie the so called rocky around the trees. in that way they strengthened the bond between man and nature. it's an ancient tradition practice tearful, centuries, hugs and kisses for the trees upon us of the so many. 2 in the middle of high for that coupon that we tied the rocky around the tree because for us it is a kind of brother. with this act, we promised to protect it like a family member. this we also promise not to let anyone damage the tree for it, cut it down, i could, i could bump good one, go for the tech i make. it looks like a living at the conclusion of each rock, he owes it traditional dogs. the women form 3 rows symbolizing a protective rule. for years they rarely celebrated the traditions,
3:37 pm
but since jemina is commitment to far as preservation, more and more women gather su. in the future life and hearts eastern india will be possible only within the 1st year once you've sofa to do and has been able to convince of a $500.00 villages. and more than 10000 people lift the lid in some sunnier villages, found at the own group to protect the forest. much has happened since then. what have been, i'm not as i'm it, we in our village have received very little age from the government. would love to me, but since we started working with jemina, things have changed that to look for the water supplies better. no, let's get by and we finally have a proper root and thanks to her, i'm unique order. let's give out the even a part of the house outside of the lady tells in a life of protecting nature going,
3:38 pm
where does she find the strength to find on them? if i'm looking to hire table, the, can we have the buses have scared little kids, or i am a tribal woman bold. hi, i'm look up. nature is sacred to us was hit with the plan squared are gone for a half of the a head. i think god gives me the strength to protect the forest and make it in the trees and the plants give me the strength to go on the forehead of his soap through the the lady tells and wants to get the younger generation excited about her work to the 43 year old knows that protecting nature in easton, india is possible only if every generation gets involved. the muscle and season leading the way to the bush. they are often to baby teams rescued from annual traffic because now they leave at the chimpanzee conservation center. essentially located in the motional bulk of upland nyja and is central guinea the
3:39 pm
country is home to more than 30000 wild west tension funds these the largest population in the region. however, the numbers of basically shapes with whole we humans here more than 98 percent for genetic blueprint have declined dramatically in the last 20 years. then now critically endangered. the presley finally cause it aspect so there's a main causes of chimpanzee extinction. at the destruction of the habitat, due to human activities and pushing st. lucie brooklyn, people cuban with know they've got for the load that to protect the site or speak to illinois. in guinea, gene policies are often pushed for them meet or sold as pets. seems like local hoping, seized by the employees are brought to the center this century rehabilitate streams and then releases them into the wild. around 60 great apes,
3:40 pm
a country leaving at the center which is funded by international organizations and private donors. as. c the 2 d gets off to a swinging step with the breakfast of fruits and ginger tea to combat the cold, routine health and psychological checkup portals since they often arrive suffering from health problems and for months. then unexcused pushing into the forest helps the young chimpanzees adapt to do was not for the 3. and for example, the forest is important for the coupon season. we work with them through the far as our tool so they can get used to date. obviously as of tuesday, habitat to but i thought yeah, they can find food and a place or something. okay. through the mines is what for michael and his pals to return to the forest? they need lodge open spaces to hung out in yet human activities like a guitar to and logging destroying the national park, but also sufficient, healthy,
3:41 pm
happy to mean just trying to achieve could be released since 2008 split. some of the closer to us on the cheap ones, the conservation center contributes to species protection through rehabilitation and re introduction of it. but also by educating the local communities. feel it because it's the community that's destroying the environment. ok, so these people need to be educated and sensitized really and i get on more adult fish all out of provider. that's very, very important for a project like this wednesday. so i set the example on the project. come st lucie minutes, you need this into have launched different projects to waste environmental awareness within the community is leaving in the park. among them is a weekly radio show, isn't phones listeners about the pox flora and phone up, it's natural resources and how to protect them your do you need additional program
3:42 pm
a to primary school inside the park also teaches future generations about the importance of conservation. and that's where it's to funds these fees, since it's taught in 2019 more than $700.00 students have taken part in this workshops to that point for the program that we're on these programs and schools to teach children while they are young. so they can grow up with the idea and also pass this information on to others to protect the environment. well, we've got the teams, habitat conservation, and education a crucial, but so is providing alternative sources of income that for most sustainable development locally along with the villages and to women's association, the center that has created lasting employment opportunities and launched a plastic recycling project which supports more than $300.00 women, a it's
3:43 pm
a win win solution. these projects provide locals with a steady income. these environmental awareness and ease the pressure on the echo system. and could soon give my coal cesar and defend a cheap enough space to go 8 in the wild. the human beings have already drained and so destroyed 10 percent of the world's motions. but when it's time the store 5 times more c o 2 than forests. so it's high time to refill the swamps. deep in the house of virginia as much as with a manager of this nature is of course slowly. he's trying to undo 2 centuries of destruction. back then, the swamp was supposed to be made usable for logging on foaming cypress and pine
3:44 pm
trees with valuable building material, and with cut down the tops of the woodlands were drained. the protected area is 500 square kilometers in size. and chris larry's task is to bring back the water. lake drummond is central to this. it must maintain its water level . always had a storm coming on. if we were to allow the lake to be drawn down and then that means it's going to bring more water off the land into this bowl of the lake. and so by keeping the lake level up to a level that will hopefully keep the ground water level for freight around the perimeter and the lake 250 years ago, slaves had to dig a huge network of steps. canals was it from the surrounding? marshy pizza, oil flow down to the area into the depressions. the peach dried out. and pete is
3:45 pm
the plan, that's best c o 2 reservoir, but only if it's under voice. and chris says that the last 2 mates of bias here alone released over 6000000 tons of carbon dioxide equal to that's emission by more than 1000000 costs and a year. and so they are trying to raise the ocean level again. chris and his team regulate the water flowed using simple muscle structures and wooden boats. they want as little rundle from the marsh as possible. what we're trying to do is restore some of the hydrology, major wetland to wetland again increase habitat diversity by bringing back some of those historic forrest communities. so that as it goes in the future in the face of climate change. and if we do continue to have those natural events that occur, this system will be more resilient to great dismal, swamp,
3:46 pm
and impenetrable. stick it in hospitable to human. that's why it wasn't important refuge for people who did not want to be discovered. people dislike the horrors of slavery, ran into eric, shut it's ancestors, were among them to escape from. he says that altogether 50000 escaped slaves had here hoping for freedom and he invites visitors to take to us and his work tenaciously to uncover the history. busy sometimes i used to walk the grey of where i knew my ancestors had walked in this case where the bones still on the dismal swell. and i would have moments when i said, tell me where you are. i'm looking for you. it was, you was in the energy space where you felt like you were connected to something that was lost in your soul. the lakes was,
3:47 pm
is also saved people's lives back then. the canals began to start in trade and escape routes. eric ship hits guest, karen wilson and her daughter a. t p moved the one who created the heavens and earth always provides a way of escape for his people. and so when i see the waterways, i think of deliverance. and i just it, it's a message of hope for me. the motion stretches for hundreds of miles along the atlantic coast. it is always been difficult for farm is here to eat house and living from the swampy soil training. it seemed the only option the carolina rawlins was doing things different from manage angie to the ones to combine ecology and economy, requesting the dr. pete and turning it into cash. the most c a to they bind here on the water, the more money they get from big c o 2 produces like airlines to use it to offset
3:48 pm
their c o 2 emissions. and she sees more opportunities to profit in their so well there's so there's, these are the healthy microbes. um and basically this is what you put this under a microscope. and you'll see things that create cosmetic pharmaceuticals and things like that. east carolina university researches scientifically monitor the fx noting measurements. what was the levels so conditions and making sure the goals is flowing property, they want to help ensure that private landowners have a financial incentive to restore moses to fight climate change. our cost is full of the mom and pops and the small amount of acreage is they can't afford with this land are put into the research and development. i'd like to be able to create
3:49 pm
a pool where we can help incentive us doing the right thing. and make it exciting. back in the great dismal, swamped with things are moving in the right direction at their own pace. the chris larry has to turn back time to move forward from the natural in, in the face of climate change. it's going to be a healthier system if it's a weather system and that it can serve as a wetland. it can serve as a buffer between all the one and a half 1000000 people that live around us. climate change is happening faster than eco systems can evolve. so we're trying to adapt now for what the conditions are forecasted to be the future. so that's even under extreme conditions. millions of tons of c o 2 are safely sequestered here in the most of the
3:50 pm
top speeds, considerable horse power and the smoking exhaust. not so much, don't get a mobility is taking over this. yeah, every fixed cost sold worldwide will run on electricity. and the trend is up. great . trump, there's a catch. let's see m b, these come from without search, which means we need a lot of this stuff. within a few years, demand will hit 240000 thomas k yet, plus 1000000000 the subsidy to support clement if florida is, is normally very friendly and laid back, but mention lithium, antique ro, serious almost high rate agents. and oh, so they're using fresh water and especially salt water because there's literally a minute video just a minute. if they keep doing that, we can all pack up and leave because everything here would die more than the
3:51 pm
clemente is on his way to a protest. he wants to show that people here in the north of arch and tina, or against mining lithium for industrialized countries. this region is home to many salt water lakes which contain lithium. but extracting this metal, known as white gold, consumes millions of leaders of fresh water and salt water. and that's raising fears. the ground water levels could sink. the mind has been a source of conflict for years. clemente is destination is the village of all far see told the people here live from what nature provides so they never take more than what they need for generations. earnestina has made items from the world of her. yeah. most she's passed on her knowledge to her daughter, maria. they sell their handicrafts to tourist, though few visit this area. but they're fine with that. what worries some is that
3:52 pm
water is crying scarce. yo de gills is we have no what we see here in the mountains . i must look really high up to find some of the low a stream once ran right by her door. now there's fairly a trickle. rain is rare in this region. so if the ground water table were to sink any more, the whole pico system would be at risk. locals belief that the drought caused by climate change and lithium mining are only making things worse. so the, the $38.00 or nicholas were destroying the regions. eco system with all its life. okay. so people elsewhere think this is green energy. yeah. but it's not the 3 and then of course it, but i'm just drawing something to get something else. it could involving green energy is also a business in the here. people have come from all over to learn about their rights
3:53 pm
from environmental activists and lawyers. once they say that no one else will tell them, never mind, ask their approval, that they feared, losing their livelihood simply to quote, international companies and the government rake and profits of the city of tons of lithium is exported to the income more to go to our community or argentina, that would be fair, but where are the proceeds or did they all go abroad or the sanctions horse and german government subsidies have boosted the sale of electric cars. 1000000 eaves have been registered in germany to date, and that number is suppose to rise to 15000000 by 2030. car maker bmw already sources, lithium from argentina. but all industrialized nations compet the metal. well, it will settle us on a or nature company sacrifice just so every american has a test left or if you're a p and a bmw, this consumption overburden to the planet. there's also not enough lithium rethink
3:54 pm
is needed, or nature must be sacrificed for the global, not energy transition at all. that is not to tackle the climate and energy crisis. germany is looking for partners and german investment would help argentina combat is economic crisis. and so fully providence, they fear a mass sale of raw materials. a cool? no, i no indeed. i'm not sure. so i just, you know, as far as open it's door to the mining industry, major players will come. i mean, i, but there's no strategic plan. no awareness, that's really wiring with a move request. so together they're setting an example. they plan to launch a balloon to get their message across. it says, we're protecting the water. everyone is pitching in. it doesn't matter whether they live in the village like maria, or come from far away. like clemente, the,
3:55 pm
the in the whole world will see there are lots of us all working together. the the balloon will be powered by the wind and sun alone. for clemente, florida, this is about more than environmental protection. it's about social justice and co determination. there's a strong headwind and the delicate balloon can barely get off the ground. maybe it's symbolic. clematis says that he's not giving up. we're gonna need to us a, it's a small step towards raising our visibility in showing everyone there's a life here and, and i, the people here want to fight climate change but not by explaining nature as long as the risks remain unknown. they're not prepared to handle for control of their
