all the rest of the classify as disgusting, w series about our complex relationship with animals. the great debate, what's, you know, on youtube, dw documentary. the, let's say boss without it, if not from the goodness of our heart and our foresight in this, then let's just do it for our own selfish needs. hello and welcome. i'm father got the body and you are watching equally. and the connection between the wireless, the fox, vantage and our own well being is more direct. that'd be then to be nice. the i p c . c has also said the c. so in today is episode. let's explore more ways of helping the nature unimed on helping ourselves. the magnificent roy's been going to die. g
11:31 pm
a is the national animal of india. and as of july 2020 feet that are over 3 and a half 1000 dies as an in depth, which is the rise of 24 percent in the last 4 years. and while a species continues to be endangered on size. 8 are on the brink of extinction, w w. f says that there has been an uptick in these numbers. and definitely we're seeing a positive trend in india, especially in its center. most states of monday for these it's 6 o'clock in the morning in the bench diag. good is of in my paper these, the big guides are out there. some of that here in this on themed wilderness nice and the area is anita conservationist. no one knows the tigers as an, as he does that, the immediately sports, the tracks the tend to be close to streams and phones to diagnose uh,
11:32 pm
water babies use. i don't see them far away from that in the waters. and so they are really indicate the of the has the photos. if the photos is degraded, you will not have any other water bodies in the streams with dry out. and therefore you won't have a heightened so deeply. and therefore, you don't have that goes a large part of the tiger's habit that has been lost due to schuman activity. 3 quarters of the was white tigers, still live in india. but the population has drastically degrees from more than 50000 in the 19th century to less than 300 in the 1970s. that's when the government stepped in and launched project diag uh, setting up protected areas. mostly the core followed by go to those out. i those actually go national fox, so by law,
11:33 pm
you've gone to have human disturbance. this the, in the initial stages, people were just lifted in mode. and at that point, you know, there was violation in human rights and all that. and that's early in the seventy's and eighty's. things look very different today. the indigenous communities can remain in the forest, where the ancestors once lived, and they play an important role in died good ones, the recent efforts should fall and what the belongs to the going to drive and lives in a village. and that is a, he's been working for the, for the street authority since 2006 and owns around 12000 rupees a month. the equivalent of around $130.00 utilized his job is to federal the died area and educate little close about tigers. and that had with that gone with, and i'm not so much to go until i got to tell them to be to me why not in the past,
11:34 pm
the villages didn't know any better and put up electric fences to keep out somebody or other animals. but then bikers would get trapped in them that were bad accidentally. sometimes they would even put traps out of boys on the water bodies and not even 100 that i guess because of the. but since i've been working here that have been fueled incidents, and i'm like, i'm in the jungle every day. and i've seen tiger numbers go up or i mean it needed them to remember the pin and i select tickets. i got them all as well as the local communities have always been dependent on the forest and what was in it, binding them from it would mean cutting them off from their livelihood. in the 1990 the ministry of environment, forest and climate change in monday for these set up so called equal development committees, or e d c's. the goal was to integrate locals into wildlife conservation projects, which would also help supply them with an income of the sin based i that is, oh, i have a 100 for the disease. and what they,
11:35 pm
what they would do is i'm going to renew vision rate in a year. one 3rd goes to these communities. they also been employed in most of the activities which we can go inside. so some of them are like, you know, if i wanted to go with us and many of them, a huge number of them do this casually wildlife door to them and my different, these makes us significant contribution to the economy shot the buy has benefited from its good old. with the help of funding from the forest department, she set up a small guaranteed many lo clothes. we used to fear the tigers. now pre grateful to them of how to solve it. every a we get diagnosed. an offering of chicken and coconuts we worship them and we keep a rock as a symbol and worship it for the bossy. the tiger is a gold and now they even provide us with livelihood. is it one for people coming here from all over the world to see them?
11:36 pm
we wouldn't have an income, a lot of them that goes, i tell you the forestry officer side out on federal every day tracking that diagnosis, routes the use by life cameras to record and document their movements again and again. they observe that towards a huge problem. slicing directly to the animals hybrid that we have seen, the females that lived on the other side. seldom ever moved on to say males would cross once in a while, but largely these populations was aggregated. so this is how animals, though, the color does get fragmented, and once fragmentation happens, that it impeding on both sides plus, it can be, it can escalate conflict. because if animal movement stops in 11 site in any of the pretty, a population on the other side was down because there is no moment then that goes with going to start hunting. got to that would increase conflict underpasses like
11:37 pm
these protect the animals natural roots that are 22 of them in my depredation alone . and the ad urgently needed bought it at a total of india's most important diag. the car doors run through the speed. but the conservation efforts benefit other species to or it's not that that goes on more important than the birds or the monkeys or adult might. but tigers become up, be looked around, which all the conversion efforts can be focus. so if you want to protect them, you really have to protect lodge areas with ample water. and if you do that automatically you will be able to protect so many different species. project di, good was founded in my different these 50 years ago. pangs to its hardwood died, good numbers have recovered. there are now over 2000 of them. in india.
11:38 pm
it's not just animals as the salt loans to are very valuable. but what can we put a price on? let's say what the tree is? well, for us, what it does is out we can, and it's a pretty big number 2. yet another reason for us to cms of nature, because now it makes business sense as well. let's head to our reporter who would help us evaluate the price of me to imagine a world where we saw nature for what it's worth. while we would recognize the life around us for more than just its beauty. because almost half of the world's economy, $44.00 trillion dollars depends on natural services like pollinating, capturing carbon and purifying water. these are all valuable to our economy, but they aren't valued in our economy. nature like this is being left out of the equation. it is easy to tell when the living thing is valuable. like with this tree,
11:39 pm
it's actually huge. it's old and gorgeous. and since the one of berlin's most beloved part, but it's hard to translate that into a price. how much do you think this tree should be worth? words, money. no idea. no price. it shouldn't cause anything. it's a federal case. several, definitely. several. most people have no idea how valuable living trees and why should the nature usually doesn't have a price until it's dead. this is often a huge problem. let's say a logging company wants to come in and cut down these trees for timber. we know super well how much these trees cost once they're caught. so we have 200 oak trees worth of timber on one side and basically huge question mark on the other. we don't know the cost of chopping down a forest or how much value we've lost. that's because there's so much of plaque forrester, unbelievably complex eco systems. one way to estimated trees value is to add up what good it does for the environment. this website's in the us does just that we
11:40 pm
need to put in the diameter of the trunk, where it's located and what kind of tree it is. except i don't know what kind of trade is the value is calculated based on how much carbon dioxide the tree captures coming. ok, how much storm water runoff it stops or you condition? okay, it looks pretty excellent as well as how many pollutants like ozone and carbon monoxide heat removed from the air. now we gotta measure, i feel super weird doing this. it's estimating so estimating this tree, this here is where the $109.00 over the next 20 years. it's worth $2207.00. doesn't seem like that much for such a beautiful tree. the values are really conservative, though, because they're based on things like carbon pricing, wastewater treatment, pricing, and improved human health outcomes. so $200.00 log trees would mean $454000.00 in ecosystem services loss over the next 20 years. a lot of the cheese value isn't it included in that calculation?
11:41 pm
so it isn't perfect, but it does put nature into the equation and it applies far beyond logging. green economist like ralph shami, think pricing natures absolutely necessary in the fight against the climate change . it's not enough to sing songs about the way it's in the gold has the same come by . uh and right. one more pull him about the way you let a team at the international monetary fund to the 1st to put a price tag on a blue. well, with a guy, and if you spoke to a way to say, hey ralph stopped crying about me, leave me alone. go in peace ma'am. and by the way, you owe me money cuz i'm saving you, but i am a team valued a blue. well, a $2000000.00 visa and its activities in the ocean that capture carbon well swoop at the surface. and well, who contains exactly what fido clinton need to grab a bite of clinton and turn produce at least half the world's oxygen? noel's no fido plankton. no oxygen, why do way to repay the wells and the other nature is using that price tied to know the benefit of conserving them. this is already happening in the form of carbon
11:42 pm
credits that individual their companies can buy to protect an area. here's how it often goes. let's say an island wants to profit from protecting it. see grass. someone's like ralph shami goes there and calculates a value for the sea grass. similarly to how i calculated a value for that tree based on that value, a government or company sets up a carbon scheme through which those looking to offset their emissions can pay to conserve the sea. grass and valuations are starting to include more aspects and just carbon in the future. we could also see credits based on how much bio diversity to see. breast supports putting a price tag on nature can also help underserved communities. it's estimated that indigenous communities manage nearly $1000000000.00 half pairs of land globally and nearly 80 percent of the worlds about diversity that living nature and intact about diversity are worth money that's ignored in the global economy. the people who conserve them are working for free. one way to change that is to payment for ecosystem services. we are leaving in some of the most probably these 3 can and we
11:43 pm
should then remind decisive that we should be left alone believe that way. because that's also not fair. many to go on is kochenda igor, at people indigenous to the philippines. she's working on ways to make carbon markets more equitable, many community sites struggling, and they need an update at the source of income instead of paying the carbon offset to a company or government payments are made to local communities, preserving their local eco systems. so hold on, this all sounds pretty good, but there's one huge thing we haven't talked about. the idea of putting a monetary value on a tree is just weird. do you think we should put a price tag on nature? no, no, no, absolutely not. it's habitable. have to there's an ethical dilemma for communities to say that we will get money theory benefits from funding for us. when we have always looked at the forest and some beeping equity stuff, how do you put the value, for instance, on the fact that these forests are the resting ground?
11:44 pm
so if i were, i'd say stories that definitely wouldn't make it into a price tax. in fact, most of the price tag is based on the price of carbon. so all the benefits are in valuing nature, basically rely on global carbon markets. this website takes scientific data from this tree and multiply that by the price of carbon to determine the value. the websites from the u. s, where the price of carbon is cheaper. if the website were from the u, this tree would actually be more expensive. this is one mass to whole in carbon pricing. it can be different everywhere and changes over time. carbon markets also make it easy for companies to continue business as usual. selling carbon can also reinforce inequalities in order to put a price on a protected area. remember that someone like rout shami usually comes in to do the evaluation. this can be a problem that owners are incentivized to plan to not need a 5 species instead of indigenous species because it creates a new type of landscape that could back carbon faster. june robust research has major conservation from an indigenous perspective. critics that use terms like
11:45 pm
carbon colonialism to describe this new wave of capture enclosure meet you at a by capital indigenous in local communities can end up being told how to manage their own land. and often benefits go to governments where the company's was just a small percentage reaching the actual communities. and so, one thing that's never going to go away is the discomfort and wrongness of putting a monetary value on something as majestic as this tree or a blue whale. for now, many decision makers only speaking the language of money, not majestic nests. until that changes valuing nature could make it more visible to them. so should you put a price on nature? in many places we already have, but just how it depends on the circumstance. when we know the value of living nature, it's easier to protect it. and if it's destroyed, finds a way easier to calculate when it comes to carbon credits or paying people for taking care of eco systems. we need to carefully examine who's doing the evaluation
11:46 pm
and where the money ends up. because in the end, we're still relying on market mechanisms which are exactly what got us into this mess in the 1st place. interesting to for, to upper ice on data. speaking of prize is one of the most expensive and ras spices that the nature gives us a section that was a dye, one suffering was worth its weight in gold in the picture that squarely use of gush me read it scars off on these pop with la was with that 10 and this is between that is what knock that he's at. but now things are changing for the was a vibrant pebble as far as the i can see. we right made a puzzle. no, no, live with the world as the sufferer on tone of kashmir, around 30000 families here and then living by growing stuff from focus. it's a tradition often coming back generations. photos, estimates,
11:47 pm
family is no exception. when the crocuses, a harvested in the full, his young daughter helps, and just like he used to help his parents. but for all of his worried about the future of stuff from now he is case. so if we check in for football 100-200-2241 kind of glad you were to get the one k g of this up. but if you check, no it is. you will get the only one digit for the 15 and then i'm in 15 cannot as of the end. so you can expect the home, which it has been declined. what it is. so a lot more land is needed to produce the same amount of stuff from the indian institute of integrative medicine instrument ago. the development is also raising consent reset to nashua. and ashcroft is working to safeguard the future of stuff from in kashmir. here in this mountain, this territory, the spice is not only
11:48 pm
a cultural us, it is also an important source of income. so since last 13 years, i've been working on different aspects of sap from biology. and the feedback read to seed from farming community was that there are 3 major reasons for declining combat from production. one is on developing the deals quality, planting materials. second is called broad disease and todd lack of education facilitates molding 10 years ago. she created a large gene database detailing over 60000 sequences of stuff, wrong, carcases. the aim is to develop a plant that can withstand the new conditions created by climate change. of you have identified the genes, we are in the process off for a grow um and coming up with improved, smart cetera, turned it into drought and many other, if i pick stresses and call it in to conduct as india is the world's 2nd
11:49 pm
largest stuff from producer of to run, it takes skill to remove the statements of the flower that all the precious red spice for just one kilo of p, o son from, you need between 20300000 crocus flowers. that's why this place is so expensive, around 2000 euros akilah, no shame on us of, of is visiting the catalog region of nodes and cush me. it was the quote because tube is here in the field. well cultivated by her team and the board tree to help them with done climate change. the plans should now be able to come well was known periods of drought and sudden heavy rain. and they should be resistant to the notorious comb route to meet gross after and successfully northern districts. but at this time the thought extend spend the vehicle uh,
11:50 pm
collect flowers from head and then be able to do quality analysis. and now we're doing the analysis division. so that we see if the compounds, if it's a cellphone, is known, 5 are presenting equal amounts in san fran grown here. no software own has grown up here for a long time. but the new climate resistant folds, authorizing the recent heavy rainfall has not affected the plants, and they also remain disease free. it says the price, even for the work is on the test field, not yours. that's what we do. we never imagined this crop would be so successful in this area and this has been a successful trial. the blossoms are excellent as well. who loves. busy very tough pull over the crowd, provides better economic returns for farmers and other crops, which is why nearby farmers are also coming here to express interest in cultivating the crop kid. i've talked to why do you know about you do the best way to go?
11:51 pm
it's encouraging news for nash human. i should have more test fields that you to be added in the next season. and this is the gen via traditional crop of course me invalid. so we don't have to lose the screw up. we have to do every bit offer over a foot to preserve this growth. in 2019 india produced 22 tons of stuff from only a fraction of that. when for export, that amount could increase significantly. if so, from crocuses throughout the region, can be made more resilient. so most people here that would be a dream country. i mean, they could soon increase the earnings as we've been seeing in the story so far. one of the biggest ways to help in a job is to end all you will not do with these that destroy out in language. and of course, a lot of the biggest problems that man has created is trash. i'm. we need to find
11:52 pm
the audience ways to stop this problem completely. and so let's head to the bank. so somebody londo to explore one such approach. actually did i say a bang? i mean trash bags of the, the dead on the street always infuriated my lot of a me too. and her daughter in law a judge of anita jeep. they thought that people might not throw the garbage on the street if they could get money for it instead. and that's how the idea for the garbage bank was gone. either way to come to 3 us in 3 years, we separated and recycle nearly 150000 kilo's of garbage before it got taken to the dump and got infinity. did that and put it to recycling fund that looked at that the women basics of bees. that's 7 euro cents per kilo, of least the by plastic bags, paper, cardboard clothing,
11:53 pm
all materials that they are recycling partners can process lead to the customers don't even have to drop that based off of the garbage bang themselves. the projects eat employees, collect the separated reese from some $700.00 houses, invaded another line along the initially we didn't separate the garbage and it little dodge speeds would be followed the projects advice and started handing in garbage. now we separated people, plastic cardboard boxes, and our garbage is collected every friday one. so 5 you've handed in 242. notice i got the receipt and once a $3.00 to $300.00 close, with an extra amount, i repeat $3000.00 rupees. look at this one, so that's the lead from the 2 onto promoters have divided, but it didn't go into 6 collection zones. once the east has been picked up from customers across the down and dig into the garbage bank, it's properly sorted with plastic paper cotton
11:54 pm
boxes make a box of separating garbage into plastics, papers, cardboard boxes and metals. the garbage bank also separates 66 other types of ways to take a juice back it as an example. reset, put it into outside, drop off the inside, already renew for it. and the cool recycle us be a good money for separated garbage. and that means we can make our customers happy by giving them better value for the garbage to the client that cannot love it. then all the god because the god res bank has already paid out over $200000.00 rubies for trash. it's founders whole bill inspires similar projects but they know nothing. yeah. so you know, the boat should step up and do this sort of thing. if my mother in law and i could do it in this small area, are those who buddy about god, basically the thing, the streets can also do something about it. the garbage bank should be an example. that's what we hope the model are more likely to come to business solely on the set
11:55 pm
based recycling can be a profitable business. not only does the cash for trash more just heads, protect the environment. it also contributes to circular economy. today is episode has with a johnny across india from the bank was the i go to the community stuff in until the very important that if not as, as particularly pleasing trash bags or something like that. you would like me to have that out any, as far as being made to hopefully to a new all part of the was that you would think we should know about. you can email us already talked to me directly on my social media. i will see you next week until then take care goodbye. unless gosh, the
