the 10000000 people in the well, the state may have no nationality and totally made up but everyone has the right. everyone has the right to see the most things in life on 12 minutes. then why try to preserve them or hold it onto the hello and welcome. i'm probably got the body annual watching so many aspects of life nature in austin, rounding with our loss. and maybe even the generation off to the like this ancient . but nature is precious and it is what's presented
2:31 pm
with all the boxes that i saw growing up. i remember watching hundreds of them as this locked out of the roof, sky, human activities and habitat last are a few among the many to have that bugs face today, which have also led to a decline in the numbers. a young man from india as desolate stage overall, just con is walking with an organization to get these bugs back into the sky. the colorful guides are everywhere, and god, just con in january, millions of people fly them to celebrate mockers, and cannot be the human do festival that mocks the start of the holiday season. what is beautiful to look at though, can be very dangerous for books. that's when we bring that up, but i at the steps in for the rescue mission. a boy that'd be up to budget as a bird is with you. right? to take a home loan because we had on the 20, the building the 23 at old is working with the truck shop,
2:32 pm
an organization in j board that specializes in the rescue and rehabilitation of injured boards and the wildlife. they also going to be, have received a bonus, you call from month it'll, at about 5 kilometers from here. they said that a bird collapse in the night and it is not able to fly during the winter months when thousands of my v 3 boards flock here hoping that it finds himself responding to many more calls. he has been working as a rescue volunteer for 7 years and is experienced in dealing with literally patients like this one. go by the bed. did it come here? from yesterday? it's a pretty general that has a deep got in its wing. and what am i going to do it by your mind to chinese mondor is used to fly menu of the guides here. it's a string that's quartered without a gloss,
2:33 pm
despite the band it to use for assist evidence like so. she's awesome and gone to the incidents of boarding duties involving guide strings. yes, i gave you what a lot of total and the and then the house in that it was a tide. you know, i don't this region and um, it was full thrown full of that. you can see the, the, the, so i have to come to visit and i dumped this in, in the study and i've kept some fluids for the basic and say of the morning. so thanks to the new game the morning and the thank you. during the, for the use of the mckesson could id card sign festival. the board rescue was to receive between 700 to 800 calls, hoping that it has been trained to deal with birds. hum, buy glass quoted guide strings. i stabbed them. either them would you be as good as when i joined i also thought how to handle a bug or if i blowed is what i can do. we can fix that. the only thing that on the
2:34 pm
lock will because it's in pain with the land doesn't understand what's going on. i get what we need to cover its eyes. we use those to who are data. what's up with all this is also thought to new learn to use hands to join the check the them to got the shows up, but the new building did up there despite the board, rescuers efforts, not every board injured by guide. strings can be saved. the animal rights group speed that india says this type of string means and kills pauses of birds and will lead the kite string. the mines are now is so strong that even a adult thoughts are flying into a it would just wouldn't break. and then that will cause these horrible traumatic injuries. i believe there's some research being done. and so what time is the dies last slide, it's goes back to be injured. but because roger's donna's a massive pathway from my grocery bags with saying huge numbers into it. so i would just ask people to consider the knock on effect to flying kites. so this time of
2:35 pm
the, for me, it was witnessing such a hot breaking incident that inspired will help us to establish the board rescue and you back in 2003, you are going to get with 4014, i was writing on my 1000000000 and there's a board which filled right in front of me and i couldn't help the board and the board died. so that time i started thing like, i think the board will, you know, going back to life, but it didn't. so i was really upset and i thought something has to be done for this. this is what i taught then by next year we started that extra work the boards and not only access to building the site festival city goal to is also putting even populations under pressure the expansion of the concrete jungle and is encroaching upon natural habitats, leaving boards with limited space for nesting and feeding. our leasing to port on the state of india as boards found around 60 percent of species out in decline. the trend is concerning because birds play a vital role. in particularly cities,
2:36 pm
we have had project loss on areas are being developed, houses are being constructed, big buildings are being, be constructed and of our development, the practice of such that they're actually driving the birds of a very database, very helpful and trustworthy anything. 8 and uh uh they help us and controlling the populations of the insects on so best song. so there are many birds for example, locusts. if you look at the low cost, the low cost school douglas very clear and tired of feeds because of the fields. if you have birds there, the feed on low cost, the damage caused by the lo locust, b kentoria by the birds also structure, save it,
2:37 pm
saved more than $13000.00 birds dislike at any hospital. the theme forest assess is the patient's boons and determines whether surgery is necessary. once recovered, the birds are set fee, again on the lease check. so generally it's under the lease. yes. will be generally check more, tied the bodies lying. is it able to budge? it's going, it's a exhibiting, it's naturally videos. this bird of prey has already covered well and is now ready to leave it on the child's shut up. it's always a moving moment for the board. rescue was to see one of their patients spread its wings, antique to the skies again the around a quarter of the water. so i is degraded among other things, this means that it's lax, critically new to you and so that we need to go off which one of these nutrients is fox sports, a chemical elements that the was,
2:38 pm
is running out of. so how do we replenish it? was the answer lies in our new rigs that you had. that's right. find out fail says what's in her bones. dna and feeds a 1000000000 people foster. it's an essential element that sustains all life on earth. it's also in your p more and that later the vast majority of it goes to making fertilizer. why? because without it, we wouldn't be able to grow no food. the problem is that there's a finite amount and roughly 70 percent of it comes from one place. the bigger problem is that we're wasting most of what's already there. every individual is just throwing away it left the bread every day. for countries like india, which is 90 percent dependent on imports, the dwindling access could be alarming. plus phosphorus is also causing some massive algy issues. but if the world's food security depends on it, what can we do about the potential shortage with alternatives to we have and cut our own p. save us. thanks to
2:39 pm
a german scientist boiling hundreds of gallons of urine in 1669, we found foss for us. the 15th element, and a periodic table from dr. q was trying to find out how to make any right. what is phosphorus? all organisms need fast persist, tennis, essential nutrients, and an essential component of life. this is barbara k manager. she's a renown soil scientist based and schedule on canada. as part of our team, hey, it's part of our south was concerning past let that's. it's part of our, our and i today roughly 80 percent of the world's phosphorus is use for agriculture because that's a structural component of cells. it's essential for cell division implant development. without enough of it plants or stunted and don't yield as much, we've been increasingly using these chemical fertilizers on farms since the post world to period. together with crap engineering,
2:40 pm
it spread the green revolution. this on massive increases in crop yields, especially in the global south and places like india, n 1916, a less than production was like, yeah, it will be the medium since last year. i would really like to production with step 315 in 2 days and i'd like to share yeah. as a scientist at the engine institute as swale science, i definitely will give it that it does look like that application because before it was there was no knowledge about that. worldwide, fertilizer use increase 6 times from 1950 to 2000. so where do we get all of it from? or to answer that question, we 1st need to show you the world, the longest conveyor belt system, which can be seen from space. it's transporting the raw material phosphate rock from the blue cross line across the western sahara desert. roughly 70 percent of the growth reserves are in the western sahara, heavily disputed territory currently control by morocco, which the un size has been unlawfully occupying the area of rebel army has been
2:41 pm
fighting for its independence. the largest reserves are spread across north africa, followed by china, brazil, south africa, and saudi arabia. the scarcity mix prices extremely volatile during the global financial crisis in 2008 shortage and foster as fertilizer shop prices up 500 percent and field riots and places like india, kenya area unpackaged on fussy rock is a non renewable resource. and we can substitute it integrates for gas and some scientists of one that we're approaching peak phosphorus barbara seems to think otherwise. iris child seventies. i remember, hey, kyle, and yet have we actually reached the cloud with as a crisis now because it becomes economically feasible to find alternatives. in fact, less than 20 percent of the phosphorus used in agriculture, it actually ends up in the food beat. that's partly because phosphate fertilizers, notoriously inefficient. it binds easily with other minerals in the soil,
2:42 pm
which makes it unavailable for a plant. when they get 950 of costs for this, the apply to this, it was do get don't they didn't get this from what people do yet us to watch and body. but maybe 80 percent of that would be best if you didn't inside. that's why the industry solution is to check more on to the soil. faster, suppress relatively cheap, adding a bit as good as a marble guarantee profits. this accumulative phosphorus is called the legacy phosphate. how much phosphorus is lost in the sorry, i'll also depends on the cell page to set up like an work climates, and it will bind to iron and aluminum to alkaline. it'll react calcium. but this has consequences. the use of chemical fertilizers increases the run off with nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus into bodies of water. if it's huge, if occasion, which kills of oxygen, it also causes mass of alco plans which can be toxic and produced 1st warming nothing when they die. contaminated water is lagging through southwest providers.
2:43 pm
shores. and francisco bay area is experiencing a toxic eligible. and it's not just the waste from agriculture, if it's rampant foss versus everywhere in our food or tap water. so if we consume a lot of it, then that means it's essentially what's coming out is the same. this is john, a son, a call. she's of research or the swedish university of agricultural sciences and also started a company that turns urine and feces into fertilizer. one out of 10 people are like that in the amount of nutrients that are in your end as enough to grow as 500 grams of weight. so basically it means you're, you're and you can be grow. you can be producing a loaf of bread every day. she and her colleagues designed a system that essentially boils down her ex grid and retains its nutrients towel with the urine diverting toilet these toilets can get expensive and it leaves the problem at the individual consumer the agenda. so she's been approached by building
2:44 pm
companies interested in installing them in new houses. and her company already has a partnership with speeders, public toilet frontal firms. if we were to pre circulate of our year end and we could actually replaced 8 percent of the global demand of foster. unfortunately, household p is just a small fraction involved in nutritious waste on earth. there's also phosphorus and sludge and industrial wastewater. not to mention the newer from livestock and dairy farming, one of the most scalable solutions is to figure out how to get all of it out and reuse it right now. so treatment plans to get the water cleaner, get it. we're not looking at it as extracting waves are serenity is mining resources, but why not the industry? so figuring out how to improve existing technologies to make large scale removal economically viable. there's also been advancements and methods of extracting phosphorus from animal manure. there's no shark technologies, it's just right now,
2:45 pm
it's still more cost effective to ship a box. but it is to try to get it from all these other sources. we can also start earlier in the process and health plan to absorb more phosphorus. recent research has shown that certain types of fund guy induct syria could be used in the future to improve copy, old and soil health in find j. did these other estimates group of funds a bit of like very good uh, fox sort of categories and it can extend that high cm scab inch of 1st. what else from the 5th, i'm just going out to the scientists are still researching how these microbes could be used for large scale farming. however, transitioning to such organic agriculture takes time and could result in your bosses risk. farmers are hesitant to take or the legislation could help move the market along. the you recently legalize the scale phosphorus recovered from slides as fertilizer, and is working on laws that will require more of us for us to be removed from
2:46 pm
wastewater. space is actually quite easy to recycle. the government of the 2nd says you have to recycle 15 percent of that process. that's been your wastewater. and then innovations finally have a chance to come to light and start the implement. frankly, the cost of it is going to drive a lot of innovation when it was chief thought value that i add up to the best i can at that maybe i'm to stop mr. content, all but space that's i technician that fits there. are talking about it and maybe it will trigger the p revolution dump. the odds are not just a problem, wiley exist, but they continue to be a problem even yours after they're gone, broke 6 substances legion to the ground. i'm almost completely destroyed. but there is a group of women in the southern and then say to somebody louder, what, not just cleaning up these dump yards,
2:47 pm
but also reclaiming the land and turning it into something beautiful. until a few years ago, this was just about an wasteland. now it's a beautiful garden. we are in a residential area, impede, i mean, on the eastern edge of gwen but do in southern india. the garden was created by daily moving, moving komatt. she moved to the area so that her daughter is good study here. to find the balance of the money and not in these places exactly opposite my house. it was just used as a dump yard just uh, when i asked people about it. and they said it had been like this for 36 to 37 years because they even found it quite scary to walk past this block. and a lot of the good buy am, although you called think of the money on this one. the one who most inspired her to address the problem was her mental c r. so i mean not to the former c e o of to him, but to his b. s. g college. he supported her idea right from the start but they,
2:48 pm
within order. but within 20 days, he passed away to stay his board diligently to change this place seemed to my determination and all that i know. and the general her 1st step was to do some research. it soon became clear that the land was a so called reservation owned by the state. such it is often live raised and quickly become a dumping ground. and i wonder if people start dumping garbage some that it's hard to stop them so many what against me. okay, and did randomly let me go to ira's valid beaten long they were just waiting for me to face. but i took it as a child in technical to challenging out into the a. danny moody, moving komatsu, used a lot of that data before she could get permission to redesign, but area. after that, it took just a few months to transform the wasteland into a garden and her neighbors love it. the less i think
2:49 pm
i'm the one plus about the garden is that the plaza drag different but ideas off butterfly on the good maybe, but also there are 6 that's and that a bit better. so the kid slow coming here, they call it that, that box. this box stands out as everything is integrated here because of the mallor. it's entirely different from other children's boxes of a tube in spots and either on the autumn initially before you go to see what the splits would become either block or whatever. okay, let me run it to name is henry is determination and hardwell cuz changed it into a beautiful garden and then the one of my kids come to put on. yeah. there are many on use reserve areas including but do that belong to the state that embody move and come on has now been commissioned, done them into box to any other than sites in the modem. any residential areas including but don't have fox that are not been deemed people in those areas who didn't read for cooperation. so in use or even some strangers to take action. the
2:50 pm
presidents for join forces and change the place that would benefit that entire so don't lot of the, let me use logical ones then embody moving composite daughters have finished the studies she most of it again, her hope is that local residues will then continue to maintain the garden from a garbage dump. let's head to one of the most scenic cities in the world, which has been celebrated in hollywood bollywood and was sent them off for decades . the romantic city of wenus. but as the world heats alicia's mode, the future of the city seems shaky. more and more of the city is sinking, each bossing the and it is becoming a big challenge to keep the city afloat. venice has fascinated the world for over 1600 years. and for just as long people have been scared of floods or worried that the city could sink into the sea. this is the latest attempt to
2:51 pm
protect venice. 78 metal barriers that can be raised to separate the sea from the laguna. the system is called mos at signalfx triple symbol. if we hadn't had mos, the dentist would have been irreparably destroyed. on november 22nd of 2022. it was the 2nd highest cut in history court, but nothing happened. we were able to protect the lagoon and venice of del, provide long ebony, so, or elizabeth to spits has already given the order to raise the barriers over 50 times, less to compare, search, see, and she's having to do with increasingly frequently. so the jeanette authority the most that we now know that the most it is a flexible instrument that does not always have to be opened and nor at the same time, sec danville. so today we know much more about black than wind. so we're in a position to act again for flooding that out. within 15 years, the most
2:52 pm
a system only partially to guarantee the exchange of water between the sea. the goons, very easy to go for the amount of them. does that mean venice can be saved? climate experts predict that the sea level could rise by 60 centimeters by the end of the century. the oceanographer gate arc when the keys and says that most it is just buying time right? the most house and he's most the enough to see fence game, a man, yes. at the moment seen so definitely in the next 1020 or 30 years. but if the sea level rises by 50 centimeters, and it will have to be used 300 to 400 times pass once a day 1st, i mean it won't manage to shop that. it moves, it won't be able to cool as a structure. but nora will the lagoon manage it because it's the exchange of water . uh, did i want it, but often house gosh, marco single vinny from the venice institute of marine sciences is researching the
2:53 pm
lagoons ecosystem. he says the frequency with which most of is being used has not yet had any major consequences. but this could change if the lagoon is separated from the sea more frequently and for longer periods of time of the remainder of the time. okay, so in minnesota state couldn't be that at some point, we'll have to decide whether it makes sense to maintain the lagoon is a salt water lagoon or not that oversee the long closures interrupt the cycle between the sea and the lagoon, which is fundamental for venice and we're also open to them, you know, it's what creates the laguna floor so that which determines what plants and animals can live. there are the 2 were going to face talk decisions because they could understand the future whether to save the lagoon or the city. the nations would ideally keep both the sun marco is the lowest point of venice, and the 1st applied work is currently under way to raise the square
2:54 pm
the get on my buddy now were raised to a 110 centimeters in the square would no longer be under water because it would manage up to a $110.00 centimeter with like flooding. and that over a $110.00 centimeters come and most of system would close. so in other words, there will be no more flooding on the san marcos. he believes we need to have faith that people often forget that venice has sunk 30 centimeters in the past 150 years too much ground water has been pumped from the city's awkward verse, but ground water could also help save the city from disaster response that is not only for the water, the stream pump coat is pumped up by the end in venice could rise by 30 centimeters again. to start asking you'd be the exact, the 30 centimeters that we've lost in the past a 150 years. so the one i'm going to, let's move it up so we will be going back the button this starting at 0 again,
2:55 pm
so to speak, for most of us are he says that venice, as we know it cannot last forever. in any case. at some point the lagoon will have to be separated from the sea and the venetians will be forced to decide what kind of a body those cannot be rescued. we have to decide what to save some vent investments. there is only one ben, and it keeps not. i'm been in a difficult decision. one venetians hope they will never have to make or was without doing this the, like i said at the beginning of this episode, some things are just too precious to let go. what is threatening the nature around you when? what do you think can be done to preserve it? let us know. you can email us or reach out to me directly on my social media handles. i will see you next week until then. take care. good bye. now most gosh,
