the signage, research and the i, c d, w the extreme weather conditions are affecting almost every parts of the globe. we are in these together. so why not lawn from each other and pulled on knowledge to address real problems. welcome to a new edition of equal africa, i and son, drug the homes that we know video, right to income. hello. you've done that. i sandra, i agree. one area we help is certainly needed is an agriculture. how can we improve our food security more on thought lead time,

chris olives. coming to you from lee goes nigeria. here as well. it's coming up a modem, a 3 environmental lease. then can you 6 to rescue the iconic ball about almost his pain. show how vegetables can flourish despite the drought and the uganda pharma aiming to ching, to wells the help of the slow food movement. as you know, we'll roll about solutions here on a co offer car. so how about these 4 a great idea? the human development program got his up inventions from all over the globe that promotes sustainable development. and they shows them just where they are needed in getting a one initiative is targeting remote, rural communities who now stands to benefit from a whole catalog of solutions. a cheap to some of the most remote

areas of getting this is a 1st for the team from the you in the px and event to not equipped with the digital them up in the database of sustainable projects. they are here to implement local people about potential solutions to problems. so they may be facing the 1st top is the village of could be on the fuel on luck and at a loss to what he has got to run through. there are $91.00 of these accelerator lab teams working in $114.00 countries across the globe fed dollars. so today you can access and learn from people who found solutions to problems all over the world. i saw some problems who have to wait for a solution, but there does seem to be a potential and so forth to supply issues. thanks for the digital map, which is accessible online. says it i'm on time. they say they're not for me to

be on. i'm in the follow up, but as long as you know, we don't pretend to have all the answers, but what we did share with them right away lot. the 1st solution that we presented was a water collection base, a little run off base. and uh, this is already used in booking a fast, but it hasn't been introduced here in cold. yeah. do you see? okay, yeah. most of tomorrow spend 2 years talking don't innovations across the country like be some from, but the equity voltage by the 80 cycles plastic with breaking it down into particles. and then building solid puddles, which are then used to make a bo day just to like these blue balls. it is used to be called fossil gutted with creating a fertilizer, as well as we think gus, which can be cut to unfold, to use. second, what we're asking for is help with getting our patented us, which have almost been filed. in fact, some have been filed for and secondly thing. and we'd like reassurance that our products won't be duplicated without our consent. 5 different to sound low cost on

for a month or most, a commercial lease since and asks questions for you needs to ensure the product fits like celebrate and labs criteria. he and his team are looking for ideas that are innovative, community oriented, easily transfer about their country so sufficient that democracy move approved accelerates, and love with health, but typically will get up to an important on find. funding in extends innovation will be integrated into a lot that the best so that it can be shared with the communities who would benefit from it. once most like a model receives free to an agreement from an innovator, he adds the solution to a global map which users can access online. they know who in the these days a lot of decisions are made at the macro level. so cool, but many of our communities fall through the cracks because these decisions don't reach side. okay, so at the bottom of life, or even if they do,

they don't take the communities aspirations into account bennett. and so we have to play that role not in for is, was so all together with a team of volunteer engineering students. let's look them out or you times to with the, to visit the village. i was traveling to see to get her lunch due to rising temperatures, her job a dumb, taught god. the yellow is keen to see if the ronald, this in which she discovered on the online month during the recent meeting might be a solution. she shows the team 2 possible places. it could go the sometimes i don't know, but we thought we could do it here. the team needs to conduct a facility assessment and then find a way to implement the solution. i roll that out. that's how fast will one day they won't be able to. they'll go up and pass on the information set you up on a fits accepted the don't let us know. next,

the team hits to upland station which is suffering from an institution. one of the volunteer engineers showed the farm as a naturally insecticide, which has on the academic on lots smaller companies composed of got a cheated paper, lloyd. and so it is both simple and cost effective functions that really does cost just $1.00 euro, as opposed to 5 euro's for the same amount of okay, because you the 4 months with no share the knowledge with other local people. and she only if you, even if we're in kind of crazy, we can call them and they'll be able to help. even if they're not agronomist, then can you shut on file, is that going on? and now it's time for the lot team to move on together with precious problems beating information the the hope to share with as many people as possible. amazing. we think that help local knowledge and corporation can provide real help at the local level, which brings us to our next story. this low food movement was founded nearly 40

years ago in italy, and is now a global organization. a lot is why crease a bond to its vision is to its a gave every human being access to food that is produced locally. that is one big reason on last year assignment. and i'm going to miss the right to in uganda. took over as the new international president. so let's me to he knows his way around the local market of edward mcb state here in the italian city at the slow food university. now he's heading up the movement. brad, i helped also for me to interact with the coach as other people, but also to understand the historical back place of skill, food, and weight or the gun. the slow food movement started in italy in 1986, a country known for its wine and hazelnut, as well as

a plethora of other delectable specialties. right from the start. it was a grass roots movement. it's visionary founder, carlo pit training, took up the fight against fast food chains, along with a group of activists. in 2022, edward mckenzie took over. it's a challenge to take a of a lead us it from such a big thing that i cut up at the beginning. but to me it's also i look at the details, the lining up. what unity i feel like i have a lot to offer. i have a lot of experience to share with the road from my communities, from my country, from my continent under that we, this is the only way we kind of breeds that if i'm growing up between the north end the so the slow food movement promotes local produce and fair trade, rejecting the trend towards fast food. farmers seek to preserve bio diversity in their fields. they work with traditional crump varieties and farming methods and

respect animal welfare. traditional methods are also used in food manufacturing. over the years, the organization has expanded its reach to a remarkable 160 countries to me as an african from uganda. so for the means address for the network that is supporting and working with local communities for beautiful suffering it. we walk with the communities of pharma as communities of young people communities. sylvie, indigenous people slow food came to uganda in 2006, 2 years later, edward were keeping joins in network. his own family lives from farming, like many in his village she, saga. as a child, he often had to work in the fields. i was forced to do a good cottage as a punishment at school. a lot of his punishments turned out to be my

lifetime passion and driving force to make a change. he knows all the slow food farmers in the area like know, well, and then you and john. she mostly gross vegetables, including rare varieties, and takes care to avoid. mano cultures flow for good been so we embraced the, the rusty and our guidance. we also make sure that we try to protect our plants. so we to the risk of extinction, and do they provide food to security? slow food, uganda has over $30000.00 members and is active in many areas. the organization has different facets, including slow food gardens, as low food use, network farmers 1st markets with local produce and a so called alliance for chefs and cooks. during the big cook saelens, the 1st thing is, uh the cook should have is the design. yeah. and they're waiting this to make it

change in the fluid system, like bedding, a condo. she runs a catering service per journey with slow food spend 7 years during which she is focused on the art of crafting traditional dishes, traditional foods that really helped us to really em verisk to more of our culture . and to give us a sense of belonging. i really sound good for this low food that they are trying to views, culture to empower us in foods, to have that to go to that. it's not to wash that with. it's passing on this culture of local produce and organic farming that edward mckee sees as his main task for all restaurants, through products uh, funds uh through uh, software guidelines in africa. so many of the initiatives like uh, the software do you talk? are they means we are able to reach out to so many people because the only way that the, i know they doing the, how the food we eat under the system under which it's produced is affecting the

planet. now i have is when we got to make better choices, many of the slow food farmers and you're going to have achieved more food security . thanks to adopting this ecological method. and edward will, katie is happy to help them in making their choices what i'm used to i should have di, growing food sustainably, and says go hunting food security is becoming f, a motion, aging formless, especially right here. i'll forget having to cope with extreme pink and long periods of dropped. the situation in solve the new is not much better, but fall most in one part of spain, of finding ways to beat the drought and still see the base dibels twice. pete and route. spain's agriculture was once again left high and dry last year.

but this is also spring. it rarely rains here, but there is water and even plenty of tomatoes. why is that in, on the field trip and the relatively dry conditions that we have in spain, especially on the mediterranean. i think it's quite advantageous to grow through doing greenhouse esynthier. she'll go through all of them in other. oh dear, how awful? the classic reaction when it comes to the vast plastic landscapes of hell, maria. well, oranges, olives, and greens, dried up elsewhere, vegetables for europe ro here almost all year round. this region has always been dry, which is why farmers together with the engineers make the best of what little water they do have, including with the help of sensors and software. so the. busy maybe i guess what we achieve here in the greenhouse is, is a 20 to 30 percent water savings. 20 percent less growth, eliza and 30 percent less electricity. no doubt. all that they see a technology helps farmers on the whole region to be more sustainable. and yet i go,

might have got a sandwich on my so things in the greenhouse is farmers do everything they can to save water. this tomato grower, for example, doesn't use sensors or even soil. instead he puts the plants into a substrate at them all. and now this way, we save 20 percent of the water that we would otherwise have wasted, plus the fertilize events. and now they do it 1st. the sunset could be any the irrigated greenhouse is, is an idea from the 19 sixty's franco dictatorship in a region where hardly anything grew. thousands of families tried their luck on a single hector of land. it's done, it's slow pinado. his parents were among them. together with his wife on pyro, he still runs his small family distance. the green peppers are currently in demand instead of a c, c that i bobby the movie and we and we, it's a pretty good living. the all the green houses have improved the lives of atl,

90 percent of all marines. and the way that i ended up getting ready prosperity and less water consumption to good reasons for the greenhouse is. but so far, farmers have been growing more or less the same things. field vegetables such as medicine, broccoli have yet to thrive under cover. but there's one exception. this firm, which grows punctually under plastic, highly automated, with a closed water cycle. it seems 50 percent on water and fertilizer compared to growing the vegetables out doors and it's a little bit. i'm off with a full full head. we have 3.2 heck to so yeah. if possible. and we have 9 harvest spaces, but yeah, i mean, in the field they managed 2 or 3 phases on the same area. my, by this greenhouse is efficiency, regardless of which vegetable is being grown, is crucial to you by now, most be still going into the base at the building. the greenhouse is costs around

a $150000.00 euros, but heck to those is not a whole bunch to both sides. can recruit those costs for the cost. the auto stores still there are attempts to grow larger crime center plastic, such as these baton is. and these applies for scientists. this is just the start getting been a little and i think that the control of claremont, the conditions on those tests will ensure a better production on quality. that's why i believe that more profit will be made and therefore higher profit debility in a few c o. a for the open w, a one scarce commodity is crucial for success under plastic water. even if you need less than you would growing food in a field, still growing more than $32000.00 heck, there is one of the vegetables requires a lot of water. in this case, it comes from a seawater desalination plant, which has to work 24 hours a day. out of the meanwhile, the other we see

a lot of development on production in the region would be unthinkable without this planned work. it because the ground water at the pharmacy used to use a salty hand and i want to ask how many follow by expanding wind and solar power and stain more, more sea water may be the celebrated affordably and sustainable in the future. but that only works on the coast. if water prices rise overall greenhouse, this will also become more interesting outside of the l maria region. wow, just a simple idea, but what difference it makes? well, the reason will, there is a way on this per ton dentist knows all about that he's a volunteer fighting to help nature cope with the dropped on the other side of the mediterranean. it may be a kit is these weeks doing a bit of the trees if the hallmark of florence nearly

b as coastal city of outcomes are healthy, even though there's been almost no rain here. it's all thanks to who's seen been saucy, an environmental enthusiast, who cares for the trees personally. ok, that happened that some of you i've noticed in recent years looking at this one was that there is no follow up after trees are planted and i don't, i wouldn't the saplings are not water. do that. i need them. so i decided in 2019 and you know that we need follow up the needs to be for a station campaigns a lot. when once the trees have been planted, the be, can we take care of them so that they survive? the libya is badly affected by climate change from extreme rain fall and slides to drought and deserted vacation. the north african country has seen it all. the hallmark of forest was in a poor state to on to whose names and saucy and other volunteers began watering the trees. and that's how, yeah, do you have the hearing the voice been able to bring life back into the source to

a continuous follow up of irritating the trees and how long cubs what it says saved and let them grow some, some 3000 or 4000 trees that up the 65 year old has been involved in numerous reforestation campaigns and loves to pass on his knowledge to the next generation. he's busy watering hundreds of trees and has no plans to retire. if he's your do for you more, i know you had there is effort involved. it's a struggle. sure and exhausting work. and when i see a tree growing, this motivates me to continue watering the tree and use them both inside and outside the forest. colorado kind of staying on the subject of cheese, the bill, but it can be found in large parts of off again for many these trees. how deep speeches, significance, so often a full point for gatherings,

the foods seeds and leaves also solved as a source of healthy food. indeed, both tragically climate change is having a devastating impact on the ball bob's on. that's no. the only threats they face. we had to kenya now where environment to least are working to rescue these beautiful tree a ball bub tree you can store from allowing me to survive long periods of ground for centuries. the so called cheese or for like, play the key role with the new village communities along the canyon coast. now, so they have threatened by kindly change and also locus. last year, each valve up to full several centuries schools were exported to georgia for planting the pop built by former georgia and prime minister. this led to public outcry in can yeah. how new come to upload something, but there's more than $2300.00. yes,

i'm ticket that way. what are you actually saying to us? beautiful, well, hard to ride that grew up here on the coast. you can least decode too much in your life without bo bonds. all the trees in particular, the weight, i mean, fortune to rule for the music in the community. this dream is several 100 years old . it has spiritual significance for local people. if we have this out, um, if we have a lot of these will come on the mac address on the above up see as big as this one. it is one very important element. but as i said, symbol is a place where we communicate to go on. many of the problems that we have been solved and the above up to environmental activist l. fig. tulsa is on the mission to protect bob up trees for years using,

fighting to ensure the survive. the double 3 is one. see which other countries call it the chief of life. because one of the 3, i guess maybe see not the lives i usually for the fall and that is just to put everything on that tree is useful on something else. it has moved it just on ages, which means it is very nutritional on. it is not like uh, then any color more defined. hopefully tuffy is show that the a be exported. well, he says, the real problem is form is and investors sending bob up cheese along the coast to make room for i'd be culture and construction. he regularly talks to people about the trees importance. they stole carbon dioxide and provide nutrients where a wide range of species, insects, and back thrive on the flowers while making different. hence the nickname won't

keep bred tree. farmer mcdonald knew that was not aware of any of that. when he had several, a few streets filled a or to not a good for somebody regret that we weren't told anything by the government kindly. they don't inform us as follow bob own plus all the benefit for the trees. you know a, b, c, this. yeah. so that we can understand better abc the book. i do watch one guy depending on its size. if sales tree comes such between the equivalent of 502-1100 euro's good money for a local phone, but a living tree can on the form of formal it's which contains a large range of vitamins and minerals in powder full. it's in high demand international, the super from the food cell, so popular in kenya. betsy cuts so can new music teacher and sells them on the side that burns an equivalent of $69.00 euros per month. a considerable boost to have

a teaching salary of 200. you lose a little cooler level by the food and also opportunity as for earning money to me, i need to get done budget that lit the base. i don't think the little money that we are given for cutting down to tree cut in any way compared to the benefits we gain from it. you know, the left for you done was it from the old plus, else like to see also visit schools and cubic feet to raise awareness of all the trees. i'm only giving people. he tells them about the significance with a new quote because the statement on choose how to present them correctly when to have a community that on that stands bit above the environment. how community that most that they can be able to make a living from environmental uh, fix the the do i see? yeah. focused implanting $1000000.00 for trees and funded exclusively to county what a future that uh,

schools indicate the county how foot or saturday it send them visual supply in which the activities is pursuing with determination. together with students, he's planted more than $200000.00 trees. so far, and we wish them all the best of that. it's time to say good bye. thanks for joining us today. do take out the eco africa online full grid stories and ideas and personal ends in lagos, nigeria, or by keys is see you again next week and all of you agreed to hobby alone will be back next week with a whole new shell. i am sandra the homes that we know do site and go from complex, right to a new gun to buy the,
