and said to help with reconstruction. but the end of the dream of revolution does july 20th on d, w. the if we humans work with rather then it gives nature, we can help us valves, our environment, and our fellow creatures. welcome to eco africa. i'm chris allows illegals nigeria, well, every living creature has a role to play in each ecosystem, and sometimes they can do even more than we actually realize. on the switch show, we'll be looking at the many sizes that nature provides. i m sandra, go, holmes,

that we nobody else. right yet in complex. uganda is. yep. yep. how rooms are transforming west being too well? saving maybe seen a blonde on stopping of bullshit in burundi. the rest of scale up solar pallet in ivory coast. but we start right here in uganda. when lunch lights are becoming increasingly coleman. now changing renfield pots and on deforestation are at the root of the problem as in many parts of the wallet. so what can be done to secure the hills and the mountain sides? well, it's all unlikely, but one answer is, be keeping the lamps, light is still fresh. so is these families are on the slope of simply being gone for the last 2 weeks. fortunately, no one will change it,

see the launch labels an alarm signal, not for the 1st time here on eastern new gunners. mount outgoing is freely remains as of the identity to protect our environment. restore the degraded landscapes. but the most important to the empower pharma is to ensure that the agriculture they are practicing is sustainable to reduce the claimant's related news us does. but also once a beauty to the library couldn't lock on file, must have got down trees on mount and going to make fools of fields a quarter of the forest on the things to will kind of slow past be lost over the years. even though a large part of the area is actually a niche every solve the consequences at our ocean and damage to the ecosystem. the n g o b's entries once to reverse the trend phone does. stephen bright software has brought siblings of the native trees. free of charge enjoys mainly for the month by

dimensions, behaves though so given the weight, a reason to be happy because everyone benefits the people and the environment. what we are doing is to motivate from others during done grid, the trees in the funds. and how are we being these with fundraise? give them more then behaves as well as trees, which advertise for age, for the bees. and now the bees are on you sent to you for the farm eyes to planted trees because they know for the beast to make honey they need next time as well as pulling from the flowers as they had by the trees. but this autumn was the best day i could do to do your kind and do it. if any of you will have it to a capital jim directly, the new trees we'd help to an additional income suck well wants to convey these to the villages, a change in mentality compared to the mindset that led to the environmental crisis

. the consequences, offline slights can be seen everywhere in future. the new 3 should help to better hold the us in place when we planned to lose please the error of binding sales to data with plants, the trees, and we don't just blanch them. we can quote them with money to them. we tried to them, we map each and every tree, that's a plant land slides. often during heavy rains, the deadliest incident was in 2010. then i met the slide claimed the lives of more than 300 people. many people lost their homes and fields box and, and some of the most effective gusting waiting for a goes was they bring it down. that one was the, the nonce i've gotten if they can keep us on the, or finance, or full housing, be better equipped for it. what do they, to me that the press could be a facility on multiple goods contains

a lot of clay and therefore, i'm such a lot of water together with the deforestation. this is a fatal combination. so 2 things come to play. the natural bottom. it does or the this accord uh, the nature of this lips, but also the pressure that come from the communities themselves. now, everything is supposed to get better with the help of these around 60 households in the village of key and the surrounding region upset and be keeping the being trained by these countries and supported with the equipment free of charge. what an adventure putting on a protective suit for the 1st time, all coming the beesley, the spacious smoke in the middle of the forest, the bees come on, gets mixed. so the hun, they make a path which they will and start forming behind me. so those things, the trees and the bees go hand in hand. without that tree, you can't have a be that we need to protect the forest is growing. to the extent that families can

make a better leaving from the keeping. stephen bride suck west and you also have them with marketing with body to honey from them and value and sell to find no punctual might as the market price for honey have to finally get is $18000.00 shootings, then that shillings? yes, but for us we buy it from from us at $25.00. our then so that needs them. and i that incentive and, and what division we need to change the main to said we have to support to be is the local communities to appreciate the only environment for us and then give them the, the innovations that really they kind of appreciate and take what that's going to be on the innovation period. they consist in them until the future. more than 5000 threes have been re, far as the amount of going into the past 2 years. that's not much compared to what

was lost, but at least it does that. and now from uganda it's easier for our next story and from these to ones they 2 might be small bonds, but in point is really should not be on the estimates it absolutely sandra. they are incredibly useful coworkers. according to charles darwin, the 8th, many of the miles that have played such an important part in the history of the wells, and the us is teeming with them. so what all the super powers, the site to for really good ones might be on please some to some. but we'll need to be sure that things. it's beautiful. she's a farmer in the village of a room, a need for us, the demo region, the warm she keeps out on us that to ha and they're the months of modest. she fits

them for this crops, leaves central gun request, which the intentions formed into viney compost. this form put that to me to be sure to have this one unusual pets, is an excellent and environmentally friendly fertilizer, which she uses on her own crops. it's on a buckle. no. uh, but i'm a compressed typically used vehicles for these masefield today. even though there is not a lot of free, and at the moment it is going well not going to, if i had used chemical fertilizers out of needed to spend up to $25000.00 building, which would be more than $400.00 euro. i missed this just about have missed this numerous other. i know that's a lot of money but to buy making and using the composts for my rooms. but i can make a profit and provide enough food for my family, research and 11, because i let me come with a husband. and she's not the only one coupon in the village. a minute or

gunning. going to click on ports in on when the rainy season starts. i use my own gunning fertilizer. in fact, i don't think that i would need any false chris, or you ran for the lives of from ugly cultural office. i told the c a not been in the in the legs in law allows allison, divine me, complex project to no room. i started in 2016 with just 4 participants, including us. if i'm able and i'll meet to be sure to know the local, not good cultural office as trained over a 100 from us to produce upon the compost. but it took a long time for people to accept one keepers and realize the value of these creepy crawlers is what the buddy. oh, let me get some people take away from me just because i keep homes on my home phone in there too, but you haven't brought it also asked the so be touching the ones with my hands. and so some of them even told my husband looked to each my foot anymore. but to my

husband supported me the whole time or the mouse is f o as well. basically. yes, i had a gradually people started to realize the benefit of these creatures around 60, for most of the students asked me for one supposed to have and i have supplied them all. austin saw i'm instructional design. it's of those for plus to, you know, my left and the one what keeps spreading and that we got your last yourself from the neighboring model. got district has now come to a room to learn more about the ecological project. what go by doing that goes to the owner. they're gonna and we are very keen to extend this initiative to our village tumor as it is very cheap on simple solution. the problem is, i say they want to make the own complement instead of having to buy can be qualified to lies. and then that's not just spending this. i'm not sure that's other than said. what is the restaurant is that the ones on the valuable product are getting

more and more funds in the region. meanwhile, us, if a maple and other local one, pioneers are adding a study income from studying the organic spots. eliza and one spoke. a kiddo grumble's pond costs the equivalent of 8 zeros. well, 100 kilograms. so finally, compost. these 25 euros the funds are benefiting from the training they've received and no less dependent on chemicals. such a license which can be very expensive on the home phone to the environment on the side portion or so. oh, protects the files in fairly cool push for samantha. that's nice. any for do you think they did? you easily manage breast become fuzzy. so i would even bottom of this for the federal and it's fully fuchs due to its success. so the local level, the project has now be extended to the entire c demo region. so the next time you attempted to recoil from these little creatures,

don't think of them as the funding. think of the bombing compost. as much as 80 percent of people use off the hiring, not for to rely on have a med same as the primary form of health care on this for full takes us to burn the we have for additional he lives of long used herbs and plans to preach diseases, yet the 1st station on the loss and by the diversity is put the nature of medicine, chest up, the risk. one woman's efforts to protect dates all the focus of this week's doing your bits. the fruits of the un nato bush. it's seed extracts are sent to alleviate infections, environmental activist, and entrepreneur, jeanette kyra kenyana wants to bring the indigenous medicinal plants back to the people of the room. indeed. and at the same time, bring the destroyed woodlands back to life. like in the heavily the forest and blue

aroma region, the inhabitants need firewood or want to plant fields. but without trees, the slopes collapse which can cost human lives and for town swell women farmers in the region one to learn how to improve things. jeanette car kenyana recommends reforest thing with all the trees, for example, whose roots bring an extra income. but apart from seedlings, she has some words of warning. is what i get done will give you the many of you are cutting down the trees and you're destroying the environment. this is something you must absolutely give out. at the tree nursery, women farmers learn how to raise the free seedlings, the farmer, maria, and duly mona. takes home jo, trophy end artemisia's siblings and plants that next to one of her fields. the

active ingredient artemis, that can be used to treat malaria, the senior. chad, well, we can already see the effects of this activities where this trees are planted. erosion is no longer as mad, and the soil is no longer being washed away. oh calabria, to be the bitter leaf shrunk or of your knowing you on mcdonny not can also be use medicinally jeanette higher. can yonah has the leaves processed into a powder and a small factory which is later dissolved in water to help with menstrual cramps. the herbal and fusion is sold together with other therapeutic natural products and one of her company stores. she says, part of that proceeds to finance reforestation project succeeds a ton, i have hope that replanting these last 3 years will lead to seeing them and households in the future a quarter maybe a week and provide sustainable solutions to protect the environment because we've

well they will not keep that this solved on european country or spain is suffering from more frequent droughts, like many places on us by 2025, around 1800000 people are likely to suffer from absolute will to us. cuz the, according to the us food and agriculture organization, and spain has already seen some unusually high temperatures, b, c. it, with extreme weather events on the rise, lakes and rivers are disappearing. wells of running dry. adopting is expensive, but crucial of the water. that's good enough to drink, and that's what work is here at the tobacco, the some of the nation plant in northeastern spain, a testing center. the region is increasingly looking to removing salt from ocean water as the solution, so that will to problems levels of acidity, conductivity,

chlorine content. everything is tested here in the bronx laboratory. and it has to be just so because if not they've been that about or depending on which bad you, it is, you know, that part of the process isn't working properly. you act on that incorrect value out of the, on the, in other words, the laboratory. people communicate with the operator and then the upper right to internal x on the process on their property. so it's a painstaking process, but essential move in house of ocean to process that the plant becomes the salty brain pumped bus couch into the sea, the rest of the types to the surrounding communities. that's part of the code come all garcia's job. he's worked at the plant since it was built in 2002. since then it's doubled as capacity as the phone. that's what i thought, this is a really to raise the area. and as well as being interesting area, it's a very comfortable it's so for you so much then for the river, that is quite

a bit of chemical industry that needs small to do see i can make, i can see that i was the regional government plants to triple the plants current sized by the end of the decades to come back on going throat. but the still a nation is expensive and there are other problems. so it's a good thing to consider. lunch is to obtain the same amount of water or more. but with less energy consumption. so by improving efficiency, not the most modern plans have already made changes to increase efficiency, but it is quite complicated. they don't, as best of their company go to the neighboring to odessa refund is dried out as far as the i can see almost full years of less than average rainfall is devastating. the region of catalonia reservoir levels have dropped for more than 90 percent in april 2020, to less than 20 extension. 20. 24 was just taping restrictions on, residents have gradually been ramped up. this will lead to the fact that makes us

more aware that the impacts of climate change of the climate crisis is most severe in the mediterranean region. then in other parts of the world. and the most of it, i can know that as part of the young lady that i know i see him have always been episodes of drought in the mediterranean, into the generation of the now the drastic rise and the temperatures investing. what of these conditions are unprecedented? tony found this is wanting precedent. it's early in the season than you'll get them . uh, but hotel yeah. use a bracing themselves for an impact. around 19000000 people visited catalonia in 2023 and taurus to lodge consumers of water using up to twice as much as residents by some estimates the some hotel also as a potential solution to save water. when it was renovated around 25 years ago, the hotel installed separate pipe, gray water, water used in fossil shy was,

for example, is pipe box we use in the toilets. it's both treated in the basement. the hotel claims to have saved around 15000000 liters of water and made substantial economic savings. and so basically ok, so okay. i think it's something where the hotels to, to already finished. i need to take advantage of a renovation situation here. um that it should be mandatory for all new hotels to be built with this system installed. the scenario is uh at the nearby katelyn institute of water research scientists are investigating the impact of counseling news, dr. to how river eco systems, for example, cope with little wolf to the black community that i see said the organism community with extensive quite well. that is because it is a community that is about adapted to the conditions of the mediterranean climate.

le, instead of feeling good if the interruption last a long time, then that could be serious impact, practicing 4 times in the same institute to young luigi booty, larry is working with water from the hotel, some book on new solutions. filtering the hotels gray water 3 ponds and soil to clean it. a system that's already been tested the but it's now being tried with edible plants like this mint researches estimate costs for such a solution could be recuperated in 5 to 6 years. as something like a most, they want to find out if it is safe to use the plans for human consumption. we don't get know that it would be to have to investigate it further or not. it's a research topic for the future, but it would be really good to be able to principal to be able to reuse it. and at the same time, so do use plans for human consumption and other uses the data, but it was still not on the order, but i would also associate, kept the selling nation plan. what goes on with climate change making conditions of

drug work? solutions like those being used in this region are helping now to how much longer bought to africa. now it's one next story in ivory coast. the government, the house on beach has targets for increasing its share of renewable energy use. in april, the government announced plans to build another new solar plant in the north of the country. no sooner paula especially can be a source of clean, low cost electricity. that is suitable even for very remote locations. so this taps is a life saver every day it gives people from nearby village is clean water, something that can't be taken for granted in this rural part of central ivory coast . okay. yeah, by little by see there's no water in our village because there's no, well, yep, that's why we come here to get the water. i mean,

the little southward is tell jenny c for click on the water has to be pumped from under ground. but the area is off the electricity grid, instead, solar energy provides the power for the pump. so to be, if it can fill out in the beginning, there was only one unit test. so because there was only one house to supply this one play, then came the girl center of monday and after that the settlement expanded. okay, with 3 new buildings. we partner with that and there were 2 more large buildings. and as time went on, we completed the installation and that's why there are several solar panels arrays here. it's not just ivory coast rule of good settlements, but also its urban areas that can benefit from renewable energy. the challenge is how to safely build up infrastructure and ensure reliable supply. in 2022 full professional associations joint forces to form a federation. so they could speak to the government with one voice. for example,

when it comes to dealing with surplus electricity. no sweat on one would just have to we would like to see the sector authorize to feed electricity into the national grid to come up with these when you weren't able to consume all the solar energy you produce and you can't diverted to the grid, you lose out and that reduces the added value of solar investments velocity and then this is the amount of money that's a pressing question for invest as, as ivory coast has pledge to increase the shape of renewables in its energy mixed to 42 percent by 2030 in the north of the country, the, the solar farm is the 1st of more than a dozen projects aimed at reaching the target. the 78 heck to facility overseen by the state of the c i n a cheese cost 14000000 euros. it was made possible by a load from jimmy's k f w development bank, and doug drunk from the european union with aiming to

produce 5100 megawatts of electricity for cookies was including around 400 megawatts of solar power. we have a number of projects with private sector partners, but the bungee any power plant is the 1st to be built by the state. building the power plant is expected to generate $37.00 megawatts of power enough to supply $30000.00 households per year. and such projects create more than just electricity . they boost employment. john says, although women under represented in the green energy sector, the german development agency g i 's, it has set up a mentoring program to counter that. this energy project manager has taken a young student under her wing and is helping her to find an internship for one of you have to take these courses seriously and make the most of them by asking lots of questions. the electrical engineer says she remembers what her career thought was like and really wants to see change as an dump. i mean, out of 15 engineers,

i was the only woman that's already a problem right there, from what we need to raise awareness more generally to tell women that it's possible to do this g funk cuz it simply seemed to fit in the pro fed mentoring project names to increase the proportion of women in the renewable sector from 25 percent to 40 percent in the near future is another great project, but he's talking several issues at was that's it from us based week i am essential to homes that we nobody from right to in complex uganda, it is a good bye for now, and i am chris l. as in lagos, nigeria face to join us. don't forget to head to equal offer, go online for boys, byron stories. and if there's anything you want to share with us, drop us a line up, eco dw dot com. thank you for joining us as see you again. next week. the the
