5:30 pm
the science gives rise to don't really have to go see starts january 27th on the to hello and welcome to a new edition of a co africa talk lean to climate crisis. take skills on the modulation. it means transforming the way with think about everything. and for that we need people with vision and people with know how i am present lives coming to you from lagos, nigeria, and our own sandra, the homes, the 3 nobody will joining you from composite. well, we've got some great reports from across the continent this week. long explore what
5:31 pm
it takes to change the getting. here is what we have coming up. how or what culture is listening to the security and living standards in nature. yeah. how the chute industry in brazil is going great. find out how an island in somebody is fighting energies poverty. but we still do the show right here. in uganda. we are heading a little east all the coffee. so to visit a fema somebody who is showing just how much can be achieved with self confidence expertise and a function for showing it, allow me to introduce this week for equal hero, a woman who has good energy. and so many ideas to spam is not just stuffing. the potential view gunned us young people bought the quotes and exploitation to feed them while the
5:32 pm
my name is not in my inbox, i'm a bit more proficient on the mazda. know what if some of the new kids on, on for the 3 years old oh yeah. wearing up village district. can you got the new stuff we talked that is probably just to put food on my table. but what i did, i did it so well that i had more than i needed to eat, then i said it's sending. so i became successful in that when i'm like, okay, wait a minute. what if i pass on this morning to my community? no, not, this is not going to be more of the like, know the people. that's right.
5:33 pm
so the open did so many people and i'm happy that i've been able to print as many pos possible use women. the children have opened a school ever since. you and your school and this tories, if so satisfying, it's very satisfying. when someone called you saying i came to you from, you told me this, now i have this by many people, close boxing, they have put in that table. and i'm part of that. the i love animals, so i take, i don't know, i listen to the care for them. being at home. it's a noble job because you as a farmer, i don't keep my animals, i don't keep the calls and get me in front of them. i don't think i don't get
5:34 pm
vegetables and everything. the new people wouldn't be able to do the the job. i wasn't too sure about. it was cool. actually in this school we do a lot of practical. it's still m. s. virginia is closed for my son, protected almost all the vision is to make sure that every child top it shows potential sort of funding. it's almost cool with the breast of recall so, so we use that. we talked about the switch some fuel often. so we're not sending them to become fond them, but we're giving them skills because farming mix to patient. this is so much like a farm of being a farmer is something that i don't know that so many skills that so many vitamins
5:35 pm
there a team building responsibilities. they have this plan, they're going to look after they have this chip. they are looking up that to the, in the i see what was going through with the children that what we not to them, the confidence they touch, they feel they understand the if i have to pause to make sure every school is like less cool of what shape so many i'll call it and know what. as a family, things i've never thought our best form on 2014. when i get back to my last bones, there's no fault. so i've just come on to voice $3.00 to $3.00 days out of hospital . i receive a phone call from for the job assigned you think wow,
5:36 pm
you own the office, a full price 2019 and a month or so on. this is something, you know, it's not a complete issue and you don't know they are watching you and you know, so it was something nice i believe in myself and i have this thing, but sorry for man. about one and one can do. one can do 3 times a bit, so what i mean for a simple mind and one with a clear message, there is simply no way around it. we need to become more self sufficient if we want to reduce or ecological footprint. that means adopting to the current climate
5:37 pm
conditions, node links to assure ourselves healthy and simple food supply does right, sandra. yeah, you know i to area there are efforts under way to do just that some regions of set of domestic fish funds. it's a way to not only reduced the needs to import supplies, the shop to transport the routes are also much better for the environment. these caught fish needs to be fed several times a day. still, i know has been razors faced for a decade, and now has 4 phones full of them. and he's not alone. is south west an idea we're not far from land goals. some $1200.00 farm is well together to operate the launch everywhere fish farm. for them. reading the popular caught fish is a solid business. we actually spoke about. nothing is on 5000. this is an important . so i'll stop with the points. we'll make sure that we do feed them like 3 to 4 times in a day to keep costs those. the collective processes waste that he buys from me
5:38 pm
produces the farmers use the waste to produce, wants to thousands of fish food each day, or up to 6 times during the peak periods. it's cheaper and more eco friendly. 74, just seen the west products. we use a gulf kitchen, we just purchased from a flat spot to buy from gun notes. we don't byproducts from butcher's, which is what you knew it was gotten when what you were supposed to prove. those are process of the they haven't posted the pool on the i was in the process. we have to push out, which is good thing for me. we ask us about the law. you just go, go to inform us about to use a simple sustainable method that benefits everyone. that was also the idea behind the fish farm when it was funded 20 years ago. everywhere from vintage began as a project of my journey over the state and local communities to come back poverty
5:39 pm
in the regions and help people on a stable income. and it, what the fish farm is now make a good live in the water in the ponds is changed every day. but that doesn't pose a problem. there's enough water in the region to go around a while. the waste, what size beds directly into the everywhere river. it's not yet clear whether or not it's having an impact on the local environment. see every where fish for themselves around 5 tons of fish, every day of the month is wise and denied us continued. population grows. experts beneath apple coaches could play an important role in achieving food, secure to hear enables the community to produce variety of food items. item of 40, which is the fish. so that can enrich the food bids for
5:40 pm
requirements whereby the community who have an ari of a valuable food materials to make this kind of agricultural sustainable and widespread various international projects of launched in the country everywhere from vintage. again, taking parts and one such project in 2020 twos and holes trading sessions on site. the focus is on echo from the farming methods and offering alternatives to commonly used chemical antibiotics. thoughts on some of those things. uh, some. uh, some vegetables, some leaves. uh, good antibiotics um, devices that the natural it helps. so it shows us that we are not doing something towards it to the environment and to the fish on to the people. it shows no one's age to become an accountant for being the fish. pharma has proven and lucrative
5:41 pm
alternative for him. and many of those, i mean future, the collective would like to use it's waste water for crop for me. making uncle culture even more sustainable to africa has a problem with this called the tech styles st here from other parts of the world awful . a full quality the compass. so done. markets and pilots, ilang seats full was having c. yeah. environmental impact. what can be done with all those shirts, janes and plows as well? a start up in south africa, may have the solution. these young entrepreneurs are on the missions to defend the environment against never ending textile waste. they snatch up off, coats fabric and a role pieces and sold inventory and sold and rejects and give them
5:42 pm
a 2nd chance at life. yeah, this is an example of some of the one way to recycle. and she said right now, so these are the products that we actually eventually want to me. the global self is becoming the textiles dump of the global north. every day, almost $200.00 tons of textile waste a dump a landfill was an african countries. these $200.00 tons are equivalent to more than $10000.00 applicant elephants decomposing fabrics release comfortable greenhouse mustaine gas, well toxic chemicals and dies slip into the ground water and soil. ringback what is say to st, go and her friends have vowed to do their beat with we will been inspired by their own hometown and major manufacturing hub. we have about $300.00 as so closing manufacturers operating in south africa and a half of them on the list in case so you wanted to set something to solve that
5:43 pm
problem, but at the same time create jobs. but at the same time. so create an innovative solution. their initiative, make sure be what textiles, end up in landfills by collecting clothing tended for dump sites from manufacturers and selling them to recyclers who process the material into fiber and thread for fabric production. we will then also uses the fiber to make footwear and different kinds of tech styles. the company collects 70 tons of tech, so waste a month is just one percent of western cape waste. the teen safe finding recycling missionary in south africa is a big challenge. sealed plans to expand to other provinces and continue to clean up the pollutant textile industry to hold. doesn't love a new pair of shoes. what have you ever thought about that? the logical foot prints from south africa. we're heading out to south america and
5:44 pm
brazil, where the footway industries making big strikes to with substance ability. the 1st step is bitching, let made from optimal heights. for now 99 percent of the letter produced worldwide is from livestock. whether amo alternatives that may have a, these materials come from some very unexpected sources. let's find out more casual, comfortable, elegant leather foot where many of us can't imagine life without it. the brazilian footwear sector alone produces around $800000000.00 pairs each year. it's a huge branch, but how sustainable is that? the tanning process requires vast quantities of hazardous chemicals such as 10 in chromium and aluminum. 10 or east can leave workers with health problems and they take a heavy environmental tool. there's a big disconnect between what the market wants and the market doesn't want to model
5:45 pm
the destruction people on shoes. you want to have that they don't want started amazon, but the environmental organizations stand on earth as a stablish. the major international brands are partly responsible for the destruction of the amazon. it examine the supply chain, have $100.00 companies around the world. in 2020 to around 12000 square kilometers of amazon rain forest were cleared primarily for cattle ranching for beef and leather production. the so the incentive and that's why we did just to punch and study was to connect the dots to the actual brands. because the brands couldn't make the strong demand of their suppliers and trickles up the supply chain eventually to the ground around. so one of our sales leading footwear manufacturers is keen to prevent deforestation
5:46 pm
. a few years ago, the company launched the alma brand, which replaces mother with cotton and synthetic materials. all right, so it's still uses leather for its other brands, but it's probably just a source of the stain of li mei. so we have the writing project which runs until 2026, 2033. it focuses on level traceability that to ensure that the lights are used by a rep. so it was agreed ramos is not involved in deforestation, and research into alternatives to leather is booming of vague and hide grown with the help of bacteria because already been produced in the laboratory. it takes just 3 weeks to produce it, and no animals are harmed in the process. fibers extracted from food, such as pine, apple are also being used to make products that have a texture, very similar to leather fund guy fashion. shoes made from mushroom leather. it's been growing demand. the material is made from my sylium,
5:47 pm
which is basically trans from the root structure of fungus to the production process. doesn't even require chemicals. real rando, so just presume shoot many fracturing hub. the industry generates $83000.00 jobs efforts to make it more sustainable are underway. the company, urban flowers, for example, doesn't use leather. it makes high quality v can footwear le. let me 1st opened the factory, breaking into the footwear industry was very challenging. that same thing, it traditionally uses level that's made from various animals. this is my duty i school while we don't. but we broke with that and created our own business based on a new id is quite as long as it is, all of the footwear is hand crafted. 60 pairs are made each day. in addition to
5:48 pm
maintaining high quality standards, reducing waste is a key priority. se, the savings, the fabric, we use, industry surplus, you know, so we using materials that would otherwise go to way a sign in. we collected and we use it to make our shoes call that out. but the glue is what the base don't want to know. so it doesn't have chemical components, the environment, it also means it's easier to clean the foot way and makes it more durable and somebody doesn't mind myers. but i believe that urban flowers, customers are making a conscious decision not to buy leather, a choice that's becoming more popular all over the world. the more sustainable the footwear industry becomes, the lighter our environmental footprint. we operate to use the charging of phones, wayne lorenzo, when the 2 bought the margin leaving on an island with no electricity,
5:49 pm
what would you do when your battery runs out? so that's just one of the challenges people face to lock access to energy. it's a major problem for marginalized communities. around the world. vows is a very true crease. our reporter visited the lowest of bell region, a somalia, to find out how an innovative solar installation project is talking energy poverty, and making the lives of low cost, much easier. i estimate those monies please, especially since she's only drawing water from the swell today to show how hard it used to be just to fetch the precious resource for use at home on the i b and the we used to walk more than 3 kilometers from home looking for water and i was using it and we bring jerry cans to carry it now. so the water was
5:50 pm
susie and dirty. like on that, on the food wash, clothes or the well the ask me, what are you in a big changes. i've come to the little village of a buy ducks and the $1000.00 residents of the spinning slot at the gates of somebody's company, total mortgage issue. finally have electricity. it's even sold a pallet or wireless charging our phones used to be a big problem. i knew we'd walk a long way to just 0 to charge them and pay $50.00 us cents. some of the poor couldn't afford that 50 and i. but now our homes have power 24 hours a day. most people on the peninsula leave from fishing. like mohammed double up, the hardy is got used to spoiling the heats before he could take it to the marketing. mogadishu, the solar pod freezers, house the feast, stay fresh, low. now, how do you go? then?
5:51 pm
i don't worry about the 2 fish icons. and because the solar company tomorrow so brought the freezer where the fish will remain until the driver comes to pick them up. but they have also had a look. i'm sending them to market and expect to sell them for $30.00 each of those to the electrification program here would serve as a model for positive changes in the country. on the horn of africa, somalia was long viewed as a field that this is a developing country recovering from the security on the civil war around with it. yeah. so it's somebody is sending and this needs to be exploited. there are a lot of companies, so money private companies that have already started to invest in solar energy. the company tar muscle is not promoting one of these projects in the bi ducks. and these many groups sort of plant with
5:52 pm
a 10 kilowatts capacity life of the hot feats it should provide all of the roughly 150 houses, we can increase the t. and she is making sure that the to goes to plant 100 is a trained electrical engineer. the plant provides the village with electricity around the clock, even if the sun is in china during the day it would be tucked into. but there is an give on energy to the coordinate system that we support the show on the for sure to the people and nobody to handle it and do it on the night. it will supply the village with electricity. that's we have been used, you know, the but that was using, but there is no, it's even easier to get to water. and electric pump draws water from this well on the mainland to the peninsula, where it's select cindy's water tongue and is distributed to the household. no, the water comes right out of the top. i estimate the ultimate no longer need solution, lift it all the way when she wants to cook for how many of 7 and
5:53 pm
what is the that? is it a 5? now i can get some rest and have tap water in my home. hum, buy solar power used to fetch water and carry in here from far away. now i have clean water to drink. okay. i like on to the next installation. the many good companies for technicians plus a method skeptic to some doubted where the solar power was as good as conventionally generated electricity. although they was superstitious and see it, though the technology was from the uh, this was simply worried about the cold. and that's why when the 1st 2 months, we didn't have a lot of people, the of the best we decided that we want to take on is finishing money from the people who would just take the monthly expenses, such as $10.00 per month. this family decided to jump on the bundle of a lifestyle is being installed and a fast and efficient is new horizons. well,
5:54 pm
in the last 30 years, we didn't know what was going on in the outside world. but after we installed solar power and started watching tv at home, that's changed to the mini grid costs about $70000.00 us dollars international. don't us contribute 60 percent via africa enterprise challenge fund. the world bank covers the remaining 40 percent of the loan. the many good will turn a profit quotes from us. so in 3 years time, we look at these training, you sort of technicians for the company, such experts i didn't, they needed us to money a 48 years, increasing the counting solar energy at sundown, socializing out. those used to come to an ending of a duck some but thanks to the electricity is towed into many groups, fit feet. there is no lights up to the dock and a lot of activity. wow,
5:55 pm
let's look at the top now tomorrow. so it gives us electricity, uninstalled lights on the roads, all of our children and old people are playing and chatting out doors the way but shadowing. we are grateful to them, but we best that are not. the solar project on update duct see is something as an example to the region, 300 more households nearby and not getting the until apologize. many great, thank you for joining us here today. we hope the program give you something to think about. i am sandra, go home is that we know view and st. good bye. from here income. paula, you've gone to by sandra. see you next time. add to all of us all day. do you have any thoughts or ideas on ways to build a better future? right. share them with us. well, always love hearing with you. i'm chris alone saying so long from lee goes by jerry . yeah.
