12:30 pm
the numbers you so much for your technical trying. 3 generations. one jenny, dots july, 7th on d, w. the are for us really do support our existence in closer we like what do we do for them? hello, and welcome. i'm sorry because the body and you are watching we all know how important these photos, software us and how much they do for us from providing sustenance to food, to livelihood, and even the oxygen that we print. but in today's episode, let's find some inspiration on what we can do for them from small efforts to community extra. 2023 was the,
12:31 pm
your wi fi us across the world. human made the climate change increases the risk of extreme, that events like heat, fees and droughts. and these in done become a key driving factor for forest fires. let's have to it's all mulatto is sacred mountain forest to learn more about the communities efforts to prevent forest fires . ready sacred o, as green as it was a long time ago. it still seems like a my number goes to massena money. oh, grew up in the area when you what model? uh and um, when i was growing up, my mother used to go to the forest to cut down trees for firewood, horribly. i would join home. so i called on some money on the hill, it was all about that and which is good, but uh they would only be somebody scheduled here in there. good, good, good. the one, the but that was long ago in fact,
12:32 pm
for the past 2 decades. let's see, the money has been working for the organization for his tweet, which has been restoring the forest on the holy, who in the indian state of the time. and now it's a matter of close to the hot. so the founders are for us to be in particular i don't think about i'm going on. he to grow up here and remembers. well, what the hell looked like without tree cover? and just how hot it was. so 1989 a. this whole idea that this look would be close enough for us to was putting to action. there was no top side, it just costs to hurt people and nothing would suffice because those so much good. anything going on in the hill? the annual forest fires added to the problem, the finished of any siblings. the only thing that really thrive here was lemon grass planted by local residents who once used it to patch their goals. for the past 40 years, people have lived in stone houses. and so the grass has grown unchecked,
12:33 pm
lemon grass contents, a lot of oil and bones like a torch expos. see, climate change is also making them know hot and dry up and why not? because of the fires. it creates both its conditions for them to spread. the frequent fios uh so that the, according to the last feature, many indeed was that i could add frequencies instead of 5 higher than that you levels of fire. i'm because of that board. it has visited is full explanation of so fired thought, living speed, disease such as the limits to get out to the forest we are, firefighters have tried out various ways of tackling the problem. they have finally found a simple method to keep the fires in the control us. and the way we have planted on 10 to 15000 trees where they would stop growing little and after a fire and everything would vanish. and we wondered how we could avoid losing
12:34 pm
everything to file with united. that's when we started creating a fire line to save the trees and let the bolt the trees be planted. and the naturally growing trees started to flourish together on the modem. when you had got it and what i can do seemed to put somebody it's all send a bit different balancing act. oh not you know his is a popular place of pilgrimage, as it is regarded as the physical manifestation of the him to guard shiver. every year, thousands of pilgrims flocked to the festival of got to go deeper in the town of the light. at the foot of the hill. it's a real challenge for the firefighters. i love of people we're getting the people festival. people like plans across the like and anywhere in the hills. we have a team members monitoring the entire place and we put out fires as soon as this start, the organization has been working with the local forestry office. since the outset, the office has not just provided fire engines,
12:35 pm
but also made sure that for us to walk us, had the right equipment to double up as firefighters to fortified go 5, can they, can you ask them to fight fighters? nowadays? we use advanced technologies like early warning systems for the parts of the of india fighter load website to which we get to real time information. i mean, for me. so those can be how well as far as dean then goes to the spot to the thousands, the fire with the local people, but few fortified to go. those good nickel, john nick, i'm good this only to disclose cooperation with the residents and the forest g office has the organization forest. we be able to bring new life to the who of the, the data came back in here like, and the quantity binds and the white board and both spaces. it's dramatic and for the district be able to go to duplicate species or the following. let's go to the but also the, the please have created that splendid like thing like, you know, so,
12:36 pm
so, so much on is the name of gets absolved. the co founder is also going to share his interest e as in for the transformation. once a week, he takes students from a nearby school to the him, to demonstrate that walking to prison of nature really can fail from time a lot or less now had to spin in europe where why fi is destroyed, housing is a vehicle or is of land in 2020 t, as it is, that is the spanish state forest fire campaign was put in place. we met a firefighter and his team for now becoming ever more skilled in dealing with by fires. the roads are dry and dusty and it's hot. $35.00 degrees celsius enriques up his is scouting the cadillac and forest with his special unit on a mission to prevent forest fires. so let's take
12:37 pm
a little heat waves are becoming stronger and more frequent alone. we can only try to stop fires from spreading by observing and responding fat 7 buena vista in the 1st half of 2023, almost 70000 hector's of force breakdown. that's an area greater than all of madrid . of all the land burnt by wild fires in the u over half is in spain. and weak is very concerned. he checked the soil from moisture and keep finding the same result of such as yeah, so yeah, it's dry down deep into the earth. meaning fires can break out at any moment to go to so they have to take action with local massage, simply add to the sum of the car that protects you. instead, i think we've created a strategic protective strip here. and it was, it include all the brush from the 4th floor, the month. oh yeah,
12:38 pm
they will get hit the days they get the how do i mean if a fire does break out, it can't spread and can't reach the tree tops you get it. go to that as a comparison, we left everything over the day or the way it was going to start, i guess we're going to sell in the other the firefighters back at the station are also on high alert at even the slightest sign of a forest fire they head out in nearly done mile is specialized in these kinds of disasters . and he says, extreme climatic conditions are straining the 4th best plan is that still san mateo. the plants are really suffering summer dead. others are losing bio mass. the low gap has got it on that, which creates better fuel for a forest fire of people in them via fillings. and it's a fire starts under those conditions. it's all the more violent from the outset within those. yeah, there's that any c o in late june,
12:39 pm
a fire broke out in the back country around time we're gonna, firefighters fought the blades from the air and ground bottles immediately monitor the operation from the station without marking. uh, recall uh about harvesting machine caught fire and set lights, seal people from there, the flames quickly spread to the adjacent for as well as the, the special unit conduct the regular aerial surveillance, also to observe harvesting activities. and enrique cents fire trucks to the fields, just in case there's an activity that they will be eligible because of the harvest, the thing is dangerous instead of to death because it takes place from the heart and from the building send you in a fire, can start at any moment, it's done with the support of it and that's why we stay close so we can respond
12:40 pm
quickly and we'll get it out. and if i would almost have the them into use that to me is actually give them the farmers are thankful to have the firefighters around. tomas, sorry, has been in too dangerous situations, but manage to extinguish the fire on his own in the nick of time. it is covered at one of the owner. there was a sudden bang and the exhausted and a sparks flew out onto the hay hanging from the machine. yeah, it's because you've been a fire broke down, goes into, into your the firefighters, anticipate things getting tougher in the future. emily sees climate change as the primary culprit. last and most of it ask you the name on what's going on, dental color. so the intense heat is making the atmosphere increasingly unstable, basic as you know, when that causes higher wind speeds and those wins make buyers way more destructive than normal remodel. enrique and his prevention team are also concerned about their
12:41 pm
humanities, climate footprints. they say prevention alone isn't enough and better policy measures are urgently needed. but oh yeah, i must go to me now though. so that's not good and i still put it in the other way . and then when the world is transforming into force or burning everywhere and get them out of going through and the other countries need to realize we can't leave this kind of heritage for our children scorched or the stress forest has made it through yet another hot and dry day tomorrow and recon his crew will head out once again to try and prevent the worst from happening when we left off. 8 to spanish, one of the major impacts is desertification. 32 percent of in dallas land is being created. why is 25 percent is undergoing desertification here in and out. this also contributes heavily to dust storms, which i'm
12:42 pm
a lot of things contribute to major health concerns for thousands of people up in the northern and albany mountain drains. citizens have bottled an idea of building the green water to protect these mountain photos. but will these great green was actually walk videos like these are popping up for the social media. they show colossal dust storms raging to delhi and the surrounding states. but this isn't a freak weather event. the storms are becoming seasonal. the desk comes from the thought doesn't like the sahara and the go, the it's expanding and destroying vitals, living space, africa, and china. i've responded with, i'm fishes, prompting project. great green pools of trees to try and stopped as though to vacation in india. india is lucky, the north has a natural green bar at the arrival of mountain range, which is held back to thought as it for centuries. that is until now the mega dust storms and hot winds blowing in from the desert
12:43 pm
a correctly min lives of millions in the national capital region. in 2019 india made a promising announcement. it would be planting its own quite green when they arrive at least help fight design to vacation. but as we're about to see, was of trees have shown mixed results in other parts of 12. and the revenue mountain range is facing some serious threat to that side. so who can india do better? and will it be able to slow the advancing? does that the powerful dust storms have led to a spike and bronchitis, breeding difficulties and lung disease. they also destroy soil and damage crumbs, but this is not just the fault of climate change. direct human actions such as the legal mining, deforestation, and of and screw eating with the mountain barrier and turbo charging deserved vacation in the wider region. the mining is happening to us such a big extent on that hill often units being raised to the ground. there are
12:44 pm
millions and millions of people living your without the in albany in the desert is going to completely engulf entire on northwest into a 2018 government's study. estimates that at least 20 percent of the arrival of hills and broadest on have all ready been lost in mining important ground water systems have been disrupted, and many rivers have disappeared altogether. the robberies h and for us to also in trouble. scientists calculated that since 1975 over 1000 square kilometers of trees have been cut down, replaced with housing and farm land, and taking into account illegal deforestation. almost 6000 square kilometers a 3 carbon has been lost. that's the equivalent of more than 3 180000. cricket bitches. in 2019 after season of especially punishing does storms become a proposed solution in his ministry of environment. forest and climate change would create a great green gold. 1400 kilometers long and 5 kilometers wide to restore 1500000
12:45 pm
hectares of degraded land and the revenue region and stopped the expansion of the thought as it would run through the states of good rot, raw just on cardona and delhi. worked as building a great green will actually mean, the concept was made famous by the african union in 2007, as a way to collect to the re green the saw. how does it region and create livelihoods for the people living that the original tree will project started off stretching from senegal in the west, to booty in the east, pulsing through 13 different countries. but of course, the progress across the continental is being sparsely distributed. you know, some countries have done much, much more than other countries, and it's not just the idea of planting trees because you know, it could go out and boundaries. but what's really important is just an ability, how do you ensure that these things route to maturity. so we have to be creative
12:46 pm
about the type of trees that are planted, you know, and make sure that there's some sodium education, altering the trees, proved a tough challenge. but impulsive lessons will on to results suggest that the most successful re greening on the continent has actually been achieved by thomas planting trees alongside the crops and countries like me. sharon malawi, one of the things that i would advise to any country embarking on on these the project to ensure that the people, the communities are part of this right from the, from the get go and the participate and have a clear understanding of what is the benefit of the project will be to them, so this is going to be the incentive event reading work towards the success of the project as well. ok, because great greenville is aiming to restore 100000000 hacked as a degraded land by 2030 but saw fault well on the hosted the restoration target has been achieved. un estimates the project still needs about $33000000.00 of
12:47 pm
investment to complete it. the question is, the, would that be money? well spent a great green walls around the world and particularly the ones in hawaii in west africa, algeria. ready ready and china that have recently been reviewed in depth, do not have a good track record at all. but here's the desert, application desiccation drying. things like this are happening. they're happening primarily because of global climate change patterns. and the idea that you know, trees are going to stop a desert advancing simply doesn't, doesn't hold water. trying to start it's prompting. it's great greenville known as the 3 north shelter belt project over 44 years ago. since then, the government has spent billions on tree planting. the plan is to plant in airy or forest, colorado as big as bronson italy combined by 2050. so there's still a lot to do. but can china is large scale, planting power, set it apart?
12:48 pm
china is, is quite different from these other cases. and the primary difference is just the way china is governed and the way the chinese government gets things done. so come, india is government, get the great greenville done. the initiative was officially launched in march 2023, but since then, no prompting is yet being done. the ministry of environment forest and climate change says it's still preparing the state by state plan and identifying vulnerable hotspots. no one from the ministry agreed to be interviewed. local communities have responded to this government in action by experimenting with the own replanting strategies. we decided that we're going to plant or the new species because an export on high re, uh, we reached out to o. exports to you about what it needs to take on that obviously flores. i'm the guys 1st project trunk boomed and old mining site into what is now the roughly
12:49 pm
biodiversity punk. ready the team collected seats from the roughly for us to recreate hundreds of native plants increase species. the planting projects also made use of indigenous will to capture techniques to support the plants. they were generated an old good, and that's an environment and ditch structure i used to channel to during the monsoon range. and they also cleaned out. several jo had small phones that helped to recharge ground water. very, very clear that no water from our projects would go out and be those fine risk of taking water from the road, or really it would because get except water into the fall into our projects. so kind of great greenville helped to restore india is a roughly mountains. well, probably not. the way things are going. the government doesn't actually take steps to protect that naturally one from minding from real estate development,
12:50 pm
strong promotion activities. then are these kind of teams on knoxville we uh, you know, they're just going to be cosmetic, with communities, taking the lead on localized, replanting the responsibilities now and the indian government to make good on it's great greenville promise enforcing legal protections in the a, rob alea's would be a good start, a lot smell had to the pristine sort of system makalya. in the northeast. the states have a sizable shylie population. indigenous people here shed a very close relationship with the environment and the phone systems. they are now losing the diversity of these plants and trees. but technically, you know, how and ancient knowledge are helping them build better or sustainable ad receive. who uh who. yeah. mm hm. bye bye. mean m your yeah,
12:51 pm
seen the key some by that ancient cause these books on describe the close born between humanity and meet them. yeah, i see richard johnny where it belongs to the 50 or so. families who live out in the mountains of teed up. lindsay in northeast in the us make on yesterday for my the song asks me to forgive. like the wind plants growing among the flower bed. so so, so to me, by making them can hold him, can you come all these are garlic, china along which we eat about in ship land. this is why i get those. and then we have bonded pals which we cultivate for buying for them. come not the name for the month of september, the half of their ready to have it. so when i and because of it by not provide on the edge of apply you open when you're new. so i don't somebody to hack and re
12:52 pm
johnny's home. village of nobody else is remote, and anyone who wants to visit has to escape 2 and a half 1000 steps. the inhabitants here are an indigenous people to the traditional real life. they make an important contribution to biodiversity of the 3 quarters of mongolia, as for his did. so people here draw their crops among the wide trees and shrubs. agro ecologist got the good works for the north east slow food and agro biodiversity societies, or the nest boss for shopped. the n g o wants to preserve the agents traditional kind of duration nutritional practices. so if we look at the, with the indigenous communities, half manage the a foot system, you will see a component of diversity where you will see there is in the system in any of the
12:53 pm
system. those must be cropping where a variety of corrupt, see if we do uh, to a mapping exercises, we have found that a community has about more than $202.00 foot loans. just a few years ago. there was more diversity according to service by and that's fine. but slash and burn forest cleared and i'm increasingly heavy. the info is have both taken their tools on the soil. in the 1990s, the lucas on most of non co, started calculating dress to own living. it's useful lives to feed, to make room and fuel. but this mono culture has severely degraded the soil. nobody so football about it to where he got caught up. we meet, we don't, we don't walk me a little bit, but it is a highly competitive blonde and we've gone to lunch. i'm busy with the other crop just because the damage has to crop. and finally got home. but when do i leave? i'm getting to the closet because of the most and lot one graphic. if i let me know,
12:54 pm
model by as market price is for bluegrass rules, almost calculated more and more of the detriment of biodiversity in the region. miss fox has launched programs to revise what's being lost. like at the moment the logo primary schools with these new dishes, are now back on the menu. ottomans have been replaced by the traditional jink up in venus by pretty low seats. and let us buy the comedian plot the bunk adapter day. i'm adding new drill out with bump data garbage, but with the seeds may rise and wide edibles i find the world really days deep. my absolute favorite is the pumpkin vision, with the ingredients supplied by local farmers. most fox has also had to build a garden at the school. we do
12:55 pm
a competitive study of the local food with the government, a common be available for an open time. we. we try to promote that. uh, the nutrition to uh, content off of tradition of food is very much more higher than the uh, the food that we buy from the market. miss not now supports more than 130 villages in northeastern india and with the help of the engine knowledge from the region. agriculture in the mountain for it is becoming more sustainable for future generations. so lot instead of clues slopes, we saw the flats that for us in india and in europe are facing. and it is what is, what is the state of the forest where you live to 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 a good bye. almost gosh, the
