5:30 am
the, the when it comes to environmental protection, one of the biggest challenges is how to balance competing interests. all too often there is a conflict between nature conservation out. it kind of goes bought, taking auction on climate change, come and look new opportunities if it is done right. so welcome to equal off because i am a son drug of homes that we know video right here in comp. hello. uganda. on
5:31 am
today's show will be seen what doing it right can look like i am. chris allows coming to you from lagos, nigeria. good to have you with us. here's what's coming up. are you got the climate positive? is it takes tree hugging very seriously. why mix forest hill, the forest every use of the comment for you hoping to national or ship it brought what but gain on salt offer. it goes west coast in the coastal community that plays a key role in the luxury sea food market because it is home, the one of the world's most expensive shell fish. but that leads the local fish of people come between the needs to make a living. and the needs to protect marine life in the watches of doing by on south africa's west coast. dive is not on
5:32 am
a mission to protect what they call white goals. the wealth most highly prized shellfish beasts on health and could be mistaken for a muscle. but the perfectly common flushed evident, is in fact a snail with grazing habits. good help to keep the count equal system in balance. its population is on the brink of extinction, due to poaching and illegal trades with asia, where it is a lucrative delicacy enduring by people are trying to provide alternatives and we are having 2 people on the farm currently in gordon's by the end of diving school training to become commercial davis, and then we will take out another another to people from the communities to do diving for us. and it will also help us to come to the approaching process. samuel central unit is the c e o. during by abalone farm, the company strives to provide the sustainable and legal alternative growing dis,
5:33 am
nails on land and in the ocean. an f alone snail takes up to 10 used to grow to size before being harvested and dried for x. so the customer loves you have a loan safe, especially the farm is the main employer in the small fishing town with a permanent workforce of 52 people breeding growing and preparing this nails for markets. the company is 35 percent community owned through the, during by development trusts. the idea is to keep local residents on board with sustainable fishing. if you steal from your, we'll share at the end of the day when you'll save will be declared will be, will be smaller. and then i think people stop, stop understanding their bus. and those are all as a shell, the outside in the community. so they stop protecting also,
5:34 am
so she lives now the fate of the other known as closely linked to socio economic inequalities in south africa here and handbook and k, tell people have been living off the sea for generations, but the government reductions of quotas to protect the remaining stock, left small scale fissures, as was close to nothing fissures like warren and his colleagues continued going out to catch up alone regardless. it's dangerous, but what can we do when i saw a live system for, you know, families. i a good day, i can get maybe 2000 in the day even get on maybe 40 or 50000. yeah. so what about cooking multiple times? i've considered the only thing that's keeping me is that i don't give a shot at them. yeah, we don't think we, we don't like no one. we just they. why do we think it's going to sustain us? the poachers and just a tiny share of the legal trait. but over the past 17 years,
5:35 am
the total value of illegally harvested as a known from south africa was estimated to be 819000000 u. s. dollars. regular one forestman has not to manage to stop the trade that's become increasingly violent and corrupt. came on display of is a journalist and researcher who says other known poaching has reached an all time high. that obviously has somebody come logical impacts. generally, they aren't super well understood because of the client happy so rapidly and the ecological functioning of abilene wasn't something that had been sort of closely monitored before. marine biologist and south africa would be focusing on the fisheries or the ecosystem dynamics nova. i think practice such as climate change has impacted the kelp ecosystem, making it hard to pinpoint the effects of the declining abalone populations. sustainable farming is one way out of the crisis, but so far it is not competing with the blooming illegal markets. customers in asia
5:36 am
pay up to 2000 hong kong dollars more than $200.00 euro for one single avenue. and so you won't find many local restaurants here without the known on demand. among the precious few is fine. in cape town, we get an avalon from atlanta today i filled out the west coast. yeah. oh, they farming practices and everything. so see the sustainable. we can get them in life and michelle, we can use the live a and the entails and everything. there's a 0 way we're going to face the avalon intel look natural blue to my spring out there. mommy's negative. this attached to it. and i think it's sort of jumped to educate to the general public. and i guess as to the most sustainable farming practices that we do have high enjoying level of faces back on the doors in the afternoon from meet ashton, who provides
5:37 am
a glimpse into how important this sustainable solution can be. i have present for myself i, i love what i'm doing. it saves my life in a lot of ways. you f buttons for it and so you know, things and, and so on. when i, when i get this job, i used to separate myself from them. and now i'm a little guy. i'm a family man. they deal with my of my family big deal. my kids hopes are high that the other don't farm will grow and free invest in the community if it can develop the i think the do it without create jobs for more people in the community didn't. and so, so we didn't, we didn't know we can go further and the prospect of fishing communities, having more secure livelihoods, should also bring dividends for the afternoon population. all of you
5:38 am
ever, how did see research shows that it has many health benefits for us. it helps us to relax, improves i moved and lose all hearts rates and blood pressure. and most importantly, it connects us with nature. donald is right, crease and this is why an activist right to a new gun to realize that it is a good way to raise awareness of how trees also contribute to the health of the environment. patricia, are your quotes, spend 15 hours hugging decency when these us, that's truck like me. so i can follow got ended while direct quote attempt but that you've done enough to be student div up in january 2024. patricia, how these treat for more than 16 hours straight, and is now officially registered to get his book of world records. the what looks like
5:39 am
a funds done does a suit. his background though, and patricia wants to draw attention to reach the problem of climate change is huge. and at least now the world is just looking up to it. it's about to have a not minding to replace them. statement that is particularly true for you can the, which is one of the was before the session rates in the world. according to the online truck and photo global photos torch. the country has lost more than one median, hacked as of chica between 20012022. the a patricia this last needs to be addressed. she says, freeze up, keep refreshing our claimant's challenges. so you have a very, very know much advantages at this very moment. i'm bringing the freshest oxygen
5:40 am
for the cause i'm getting it. there. it from a tree out of the same time. it's sticking in, mccullen. dick said, just talk to you about trees is not enough for patricia. she wants to help bring them back where they were lost in uganda. for these she needs the help of upcoming generations. and a good idea to get their attention. in this case, it's within pencils filled with the 3 seats with these plentiful pencils in her luggage. the active use regularly mixed community l . features mainly in schools in eastern uganda. so today the education is on the time table put these class it's very important that they understand the jenny, they're about to take one,
5:41 am
which is trip planting. and i want them to send the process for my c. and so this particular thing. so for me to test seems insight and they're using it to study it . at the end of that, it's going to try switching to a tree, a tree was cut and the tree is going to be planted. and that is what i want them to basically understand from this. so you'll pay for the up to these hopes she can help students to evaluate trees, may say. and when it took a plan to condense desk, which then the sold in for you go and he's supposed to what in the school, but she's just g and planting. education was received. she has come at the right time. when i read you on, on the country, i flags is in need of a mitigating climate change. for we all, we all know how much about communities displaying that, pres, hands, questing drumstick climate change. so it is
5:42 am
a really good day. it takes the kids until a seat has reached the size of these trees. all the more reason saves patricia to begin impressing them sooner. rather than later the wayside destruction would be that the 1st victories, things that we should love to should protect and eventually plant. so you're seeing need 2 of these, maybe it could take something in your mind as well. you know, the trees could the precious things that we can live very, very well with the trees are also the topic of our next report. the future of forests, ease aqua, san in phos, to high temperatures on a regular brain for i'm going problems, and experts say they will only get was in the coming tickets bought the also we do think that they might have found a safe way to help build forest resilience,
5:43 am
and to ease how it walks of the tree on the right. it has hardly any leaves left and will soon die, while the one on the left is doing well for the time being not a good sign here in the media and sieve. foresters are trying out a strategy to cope with the effects of climate change. this is what's called a mosaic forest, made up of all sorts of different trees, including purchase folks and turkish pines. oh, that's what it was a see the bill on the other side of the mosaic forest is 1st and foremost a legacy of several. sylvie, cultural methods. let's continue to use the same regular high far as the regular high forest on is of old was positive senescence unrestored have a talk see receiving their dental and they also an ultra nation of landscapes and the mix of species. oh no, definitely. that's what we need to remember about the most
5:44 am
a far i should be destroyed. it's a mixture of vegetation estrada. that boost is the resilience of the force of the day on the approval of tomorrow. on 4200 heck, there's of land. the french forestry agency are facing us, you know, they for k is trying out solutions to climate change. they're basing their experiments on a predicted temperature increase of 4 degrees celsius. by the end of this century, climate stress is like a silent storm. the experts say causing as much damage as forest fires, and it's one that is in stopping there. diversifying the forest with conifers, the citrus trees and southern trees species they've planted style. oaks, for example, which originated in southern france under mature oaks. this protects the small oaks in very hot, dry summers. the foresters use a net to collect acorns to be used in their program. they hope that the introduced
5:45 am
species will hybridize with native oaks so that both of them was a thought of the importance of the mosaic, far east in relation to climate change. i was to always have one or more solutions is easy to avoid deadlock and to continue to help you far as to adopt what you know from what we can see. the climate change is happening very fast. on the far as the ability to adopt the speed of climate change is limited. they've already shown came . i think it is, and that's where the force this contribution is important. in helping the far as to adapt to climate change more quickly led and more efficiently meant to accelerate the french foresters are pending their hopes on a mosaic of trees species instead of a monoculture. it's more difficult to manage, but it's also more resilient to intensifying climate change.
5:46 am
oh and that's we pulled ease about another french and you should see the foster hydrogen paula cheap to see around the globe. a jenny that went up to 70 is in total. it is said to return to france later, these salma does ride sandra, about 80 percent of global trade is carried by sea and mar time transport is normally highly carbon intensive. but now the into the still mart time organization is a mean to hate. next, 0 emissions by 20 to 50. so these project has really been making ways or this catamaran might look futuristic, but it's already sailing the sea is today. the energy observer is on emission to show that one day shipping could be environmentally friendly and emissions free
5:47 am
goals. that's how you set up on this. we are 200 well, me tells. so the symbol there is an urgent need for such a clean solution from fishing vessels to cruise ships and cargo freighters. international shipping has a huge climate impact accounting for around 3 percent of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. the industry has made some steps towards sustainability. the 1st container ship to also run on green method all made from bio gas set off in september 2023. but that still can't hold a candle to this 0 emissions catamaran, which already has more than 60000 nautical miles under its belt. the energy observer boasts too high tech, fully automatic winning sales, which can rotate 360 degrees to capture the most wind and can even help produce electricity. below deck, hydrogen fuel cells can generate power even during unfavorable weather conditions.
5:48 am
this is a short survey to produce electricity to a charge of all $400.00 boards. but the energy absorber 2 is already in the works of 120 meter long cargo ship with a capacity of 5000 metric tons powered by liquid hydrogen. it may seem like a lot of high tech put the crew of the catamaran hopes their innovations will become standard in the future. we use a to gentle, challenging, but with in a world in the sun, we say it's in no bold losing bodies. did you know more than 50 percent of people who are involved in agriculture in
5:49 am
africa? most of them don't have john fields to work with the plant the crops india got in so around the homes. but you need to know how to do it right on initiative and gone on to just people how to cultivate the our own tomatoes on ends. peppers of the crowd of women is gathering to get some gardening, tips, grown and fresh produce isn't hard. and the benefits are enormous. coming out here in northern gone are about to close, the injured team are showing local women how best to create a backyard vegetable garden. the small organization started out as a social media project together and soon gathered momentum, attracting a growing number of female followers. we had seats at the office,
5:50 am
we had some small guiding tools. so we sort of advocating putting on social media. that's if you want to at buckhead garden does contacts us and it's was and the way that you the way to preview those. clearly i agree with before within a week, 700 volunteers signed up for the one household, one garden program. many of them were women who had gotten out of the habit of gardening pork whose husbands didn't once them working in the car. but during the pandemic, food prices rose dramatic. 1 and many people decided to go back to growing their own vegetables. it has an impact on the entire community. and it's time we supports, we mean we realize aspects of multiplication. we've over the years supported women's problem is we meant processes, women, my kid says we do swells things of finding out pregnant women and single mothers and realize that it's extended beyond the families with the
5:51 am
communities, changing livelihoods and being that needs to be wishing and sub enough men says even within your communities, once they complete training, the women are awarded seeds and a pair of rubber boot shot to death. i'm be going home to plant tomatoes, ok, onions and peppers see if their vegetable patches flourish. don't even have enough produce to sell. so. now finding yeah, didn't, those would have learned to you will benefit me a lot. it's got some guy can make some money with what we've been trying to do is of every thoughts in a school, it will also help mothers feed the children up to every how they just why this could be very good business for me. got these and it's only in recent years, food prices have doubled even at the local markets. the corona virus crisis has caused ongoing supply chain problems are bad to close, it is keen to make agriculture a more stable sector. she believes that
5:52 am
a lot more locally grown, produce to be sold at the local market. gonna is up for trial country. that's rich in resources, this type of thing. so then the cvc and the one from got my, all of this on for the wow. so like you are looking at transportation costs here and all that's going to waste. now, $41.00 that goes that hits the organization. she originally wants it to be a journalist. now she's in active is traveling across the country with their team. in the last 5 years, they've trained up to some of the 26000 women. this is i was wanting to console tennessee when i started my car. yeah, i ended up have been if past, which made me move to the field, and that's as sharply nicole, the, the country di, looking dining with women farmers is mobile. the farm is then seeing what's i
5:53 am
can do in my own small way to support agriculture and gonna is a struggling sector. a growing number of farmers are giving up the driving principle behind agra. house foundation is that cultivating vegetables should be profitable. the project also promotes healthy eating. it has the support of local governments and overall, it also will raise their controls and resolve peoples a winners and seeking to meet the environment clean up by having news and guidance . so it is a concept that the, for me, you said a whole is taking terms of getting the right to nutrition, getting the environment clean and more important for timely. also insinuating people's interest in the practicing that because of that level of the cause a follows up on her training courses visiting participants use later to see how they're getting all the ideas that same plan gardens that are sustainable. they
5:54 am
have to last longer than just one season. the experts give tips on how to get the most out of a small space to reach that i expect my garden to be able to feed some of my neighbors around who will be my from me. because if i have more people around me, you can also benefit from it. so that's what i'm hoping for. the women learn new skills and hopefully start to earn an income too. but not everyone approves that up or down. close a 100 teen make a point of talking to participants, husbands and the village leaders to convince them that it's in everyone's interest . every thing that we do, i want to say we are very positive about this uh group. and we know that they would the wind to main. since i didn't do, we want to see them more empowered. we want to them to be proud of themselves as women seeing women learn to take pride in their achievements is what drives
5:55 am
a cosa today? she's just shown over $100.00 women. how to be more self sufficient, hopefully besides their gardens, their self confidence will blossom and flourish to what a beautiful sight. that's the it's for visitation of the go off.
