2:30 am
the end nicaragua, a dream of revolution, july 20th on d, w. the the climate, all the east changing and there is much we can do to help ourselves a fellow creatures on the environment. welcome to equal africa. i am sandra holmes, that we know what you write to income plot. uganda. we're almost taking the cheap around the world. we view this week. that's right, sandra, a. the quest for sustainable practices will had as far as some remote in the mountains. but one reports at the time, i am curriculums, illegals, nigeria,
2:31 am
this week we will take a look at the blind a, i to, to come back to poaching in kenya. keeping up as we're forestry traditions, and indians mounting those regions. bank honoring a judge in a wide life called in uganda. while we're getting started in gonna we're superstitions abound in the countryside. some people believe that bad behavior influences the weather and that only by piece in the spirit gods will cease, improve. now these believes and the beast and science, which is why a team of young people is looking to transform altitudes and they all want the same thing to do something about climate change. the disaster youth brigade is challenging traditions in their community of non gary because the dry seasons are lasting longer and the harvests are getting smaller. the rain maker,
2:32 am
however, still relies on all rituals. then the 2 bedrooms yakima, we're keeping the tradition of our forefathers newton. whenever there is a drought, we need to perform sacrifices to our ancestors. that's what they were doing. what you get abundant food and rein quotes you. and if you don't perform these rise, if it won't rain properly, we agenda, which i've done before. she is due to human induced climate change weather extremes, are also becoming noticeably stronger here in northeastern. gone up. the normal rainy seasons are failing to occur replaced by sand storms or torrential downpours . in the non neary community. more and more farmers have planted their fields right up to the banks of the river, where the land is more for tile. but during the heavy rains, the river overflows its banks and crops are often lost. this is why the youth brigade marks out the river bank areas that are not to be planted. the young people are volunteers who have been trained by the national disaster management
2:33 am
organization or not know for short. and then when we play the kid task a, have a form of this group, so it will to, to, to our chief and the others. and that's important to us. so to see what the f, what was to do so that if i didn't reduce, how would we see then this? yeah, well how to weigh mesa a limits? i will from that event so that you went off, i'm clearly over at the funding would reduce growing crops to close to the river bed has negative consequences for the environment scientist morning. i, wendy, if i'm close to what top would use the size of the what top would it begins to reduce then also the machines takes place a you have the position of sealants can do that. debate was that what, what do you see reduces it means that the amount of him but we have the 12 fixed
2:34 am
gel model for him for you having an area. rainfall is also affected by ramping deforestation. when harvests fail, the sale of firewood and charcoal is the only alternative source of income. then the villagers cut down even more trim, a vicious cycle. because the fewer the trees, the less it rains. the volunteers, if we're getting discussed all these issues with the villagers, most players a recurring theme. people set them during the dry season to make it easier to hunt game i 0. and if i swung me dig going in, there was all my or outbreak. literally my we go to put it out and investigate the car for you. what is it that of if someone deliberately sent the fire, the person has done that before the elders. and finally get a step. um, oh i see keeping a good environment. they just the best way to enjoy your lives. yeah. okay. so will i see the campaign or is raising awareness among villagers?
2:35 am
laptop. yeah, i know that and we've been getting fewer rains in recent years and it's been severe storms that destroying our homes. that's why i believe the young people, what they tell us to plant trees instead of cutting them down, it's better than our own practices store. so my island ushio is proud that his messages are being heard. the villagers used to regularly cut down trees here. the landscape was bare until they started re for us thing 3 years ago. or the villagers no only take individual branches for firewood. instead of cutting down the whole 3, the youth brigade receive support from both national and international sponsors. together with the villagers. they weren't able to plant 5 more heck pairs of acacia trees new. they gotcha fucked, loud as we started doing the phone, cutting the trays for fire file if i would, and also a brand new chuckle. so we, we, we brought that these guys. yeah. for the next 3 years or 3 years coming. ok,
2:36 am
they're gonna get files out for for find out for the local organizations, project managers regularly for sitting on your a to find out how things are going. they also give tips on how the villagers can protect themselves from storms or floods, such as plant more indigenous trees to create when brakes. after 3 years, the program manager makes an initial assessment. we believe that this is funding part time strategy and initiating that should be adopted by ada access. one community at the time we come on each climate change, it's all about that efforts together that will show that out environment is safe for us and for future eisen generations. this also includes regularly collecting plastic that would otherwise be blown around by the wind. such use brigades now exist in 5 communities, the northeastern gonna 20 volunteers are always active. they're taking the many small steps together with the villagers to at least counter act. anthropogenic climate change on
2:37 am
a local level. young people are both compacting loans held superstitions, but they are also of the full frontal preserving ation traditions. let's go to the present in forest, around in some remote villages in northeast and india. a region with a sizable tribal population on indigenous communities. beth, what in danger of losing the diversity of the food systems due to high demand for just some groups, but young people from a slow food n g o helping to revise the strength. oh, uh mm hm. yeah, mm hm. by the name of your yeah, seen the key some by that ancient cause these folk song describes the close borne between humanity and meet them. your richard zondaway belongs to the 50 or so
2:38 am
families who live here in the mountains of cheat up wednesday in northeast in the us make on yesterday for my the song asks me to put her get like the white lawns doing on the flower bed saw so so to me by making them can hold him, can you come all these are garlic, china along which we eat about and ship long. this is why and then we have bonded pals which we cultivate providing for them. come not the we don't know nail fuck during the month of september and the half of the ready to have is so when i and because of it by not provide on the edge of a lot like you open when you're new. so i don't how many to hack and we have 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
2:39 am
real life. they make an important contribution to biodiversity, 3 quarters of migalia, as far as that. so people here go the crops among the wide trees and shrubs. cindy, agro ecologist got the good works for the ne, slow food, an agro biodiversity society, or net spots for shots. 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 have manage the food system, you will see a component of diversity where you will see there is in the system in any of this system. there's mostly cropping where a variety of 12 see if we do uh, to a mapping exercises we have found that a community have about more than $202.00 foot loans. just
2:40 am
a few years ago. there was more diversity according to service by nest us. but slash and burn florida is cleared and i'm increasingly heavy. the info is have both, they can be sold on the soil. in the 1990s, deluca samuels of non co started calculating bluegrass to own living. it's useful lives to feed, to make blue and fuels. but this mono culture has severely degraded the soil. nobody so football, i brought it to where he got caught up when able to walk me a little bit. but it is a highly competitive blonde and you have gone to lunch with the other crawl, just because of the damage i took up and finally got home. but when do i leave? i'm getting to the plotted because of the most and lot one graphic. let me know, model by as market price is for bluegrass rules, almost calculated more and more of it to the detriment of biodiversity in the region. most foss has launch programs to revise what's being lost and now supports
2:41 am
more than $130.00 villages in northeastern india. and with the help of the ancient knowledge from the region. agriculture in the mountain for it is becoming more sustainable for future generations. so long set a cool love living and how many we've nature knowing all about gone. so trees like those indigenous communities we have just seen this is knowledge, but more than city dwellers how to often last or never not. but if possible to find what plants even edible ones in the biggest cities as well, and it's report shows coming wide from the bridges copy tony london, he's a didn't get beat basic at the talent homeless senate tree park in east london, an unexpected trend, this flourishing sky said around the graves of many edible, wild clouds,
2:42 am
a treasure trains of some natural ingredients. anyone keen to explore a none a growing number of people attending courses? the a is a is to add to people's knowledge. so nice people have done some think, but they be just 8 and wild garlic, but they want to learn more, so they want to learn how to identify problems more confidently. they want the recipe ideas, and they want to experience a range of while problems in college full. but so got your guide, kenyon, greenway towels the participants on as far as getting calls about the edible plants here, including a flowering concord, honesty, the tastes much like must. it is almost a wild strawberries of wild rock. it is what is nettles and buckboard? we can't do enough for it and toes that very probably popular. and i guess the reason such an interest is as a result of the race and pun demik with a lot more people spending time in pox. thinking about problems wondering what they
2:43 am
can do with them, and it is crated and interesting for which in which is linked to a growing interest in self sufficiency. the united nations estimate 66 percent of people will live in urban areas by 2016. locally, sol, food can help based food security, the cost of trucks, people of all ages. it wasn't mother's day present april if a have because we do a little gardening and we've spoken about it before wanting to like be able to eat food that we can just go so. so i thought it was a good empowers you, but it also makes you feel your really parts of nature and you can use nature but wisely. you know, i think this thing about the rules of foraging is really important. so to be with spiteful to be respectful of the plans and what you pay. green spaces also play a critical role in built up areas. foraging tools can help raise awareness of their
2:44 am
importance and the need to conserve them. so i way fostering for diversity as well as say to new pounds and punching new things. we want to see the full range of our opponents here that we can foster and encourage bought of we can now what you've done. that is getting tough with coaches twice because on wildlife products smugglers with a life senses, ivory, possession, and other convictions, i think it's possible to try wildlife crimes husbands as the police in complex and judge a lot is going to send you is these weeks equal here all the less solve them way trying to, to roam free in uganda was to by pushes in 1983 these huge, but don't say anymore. couldn't leave to be 45 years old. but here it was hunted
2:45 am
out of existence by people wanting to sell its own illegally. vicki less rarely fish justice gladys come a send you from us because 1st space show what less quote wants to change or that. and then more who is a victim? in the wildlife kiss, it does not have a son's report that's wrong, full of slip has been okay then to them even when said the survivors, they don't have a chance to report them. have a chance to follow up on that. cuz then love a chance to appear in court to tell the story to show us the pain, like where a human being is a victim. since you can just wide lift, quote was established in 2017 and compiler. just come as such as, dispense justice in more than 1000 cases. the loan gate goes on, then we'll come a 2nd is determined to help cover
2:46 am
a legal wildlife trade. i realize how much depletion going on. the law says that are all they all. i keep getting up and they get to know all these a big role, those additional fees have, but i really have to play to save nature, not for me today. but all those who come off to me then will come a sudden is determined to help cub illegal wildlife trade. how about 11 percent? so if you've done them territory, even legally protected quotes sufficient areas encroaching on the natural resources . how mean killing any of the most is punishable by laws that with tough and in recent years. but it's not always enough between 20212022. your almost 3000 documented cases even in the funds a spit using these kind of p as the buffers the he pause. and when you look at the
2:47 am
people who use this p, as some of them consider these p as a distance of a set that for them it does. and for you, you will, you can't even throw either. this is a 5 me test, and these are older people. it will have been in the poaching activities. that item titled, lease mind was arrested after killing a buffalo with a spear such case is used to fix delays and be with, you know, really good system. and really resulting steve sentences, but toilet crimes. now get special attention incumbents and use court. in the land my case in 2022, she sent a repeat offender of a very trafficky life in prison. the judgment was white and welcomed by cloud solutions. we started to see some procedures on the bank that
2:48 am
considered yesterday because and now it is a special court who are bringing the suspects from photos of the country. and so it was thought that the good thing is that incentive people wants to commit to play when they, you know, that once you commit to this claim, you wouldn't be taken to come out. there is a special court and you kind of be given the hash punishment. so i think to me that towards a very good thing. it kinda said you've seen was that some suspects presented to harcourt to best times the importance of consolidation and predicting endangered species. so beyond types, judicial role, she has found it and then proceeds, organization to educate communities, especially the young generation use, the little ones can be groomed to be the future. once the vision is most who can solve the environment, mitchell took care of the most of the we i labor and take care of. and if we left them for example, and we didn't care to catch them. yeah. and they kind of as well become the
2:49 am
official for $0.10 to close sufficient if thoughts then no more than such a way try nose in uganda, judge, come, i said you hopes of the countries was soon sent to the right. so if i knew most when dealing with pushing and trafficking, van creatures like the sold on like trade, no. me once again leave long lives in freedom. what unimpressed the woman i am so proud that we have such a quotes here in uganda, but as important as this walk ease, it wouldn't be even better to present poaching in the foster please. the 1st step is to know exactly which species room all for us, and that's what a group of young people in kenya is trying to do. they use moving technology and even artificial intelligence to account undetermined spacious wildlife conservation . 3 point, oh,
2:50 am
some. well good. you is looking for goods the going to college useful can use national museums heads to the field because usual tools, they know kill us a finely tuned in and lots of patients. so like proud grubbing chat. see it's a space kinetic color. yeah. but some of those is not just here for and work in the woods, is helping to collect the data for the forest, since he looks for species that can help identify threats to the eco system. today he hopes to find a bit cold hot cloud to that cool. so, but it's like those uh for us dependent cuz they do rely on indigenous for assistance for the food and breathing and foraging areas. so when we lose issues
2:51 am
like the hot collab store, cool, we know that the forest health is in decline and maybe will indicate that we need to do something about that in terms of maybe reduce into fietta around. so plentiful, indigenous fruiting trees in the area. but this data collection method takes a long time, spectacled weaver, when that's calling true. and when it comes to deciphering bedclothes, even professionals make mistakes. luckily, a local university has developed a device that can help researchers like somewhere else. ok, so this is an acoustic sense. i'm at 2 different looked on this into, for an adjustment. in addition intelligence, all right, for i would do data collection with the goal of 20000 ecosystems using so we have a follow up on the do tags the by chance. mm hm. summer is excited about this invention. he believes it can help him in his work of even being out here for
2:52 am
a couple of hours now. almost 4 hours and not being able to see the bed itself. and can show you how important, uh, uh, acoustic monitoring, such as these, these devices and how important they are to ecological studies. because it's not every single time you go to the field that you get a chance to see a study subject. actually having acoustic monitoring programs like these that uh, remove the human aspect, can maybe give us a better picture of what the ecosystem looks like without too many interference machine learning powers. the technology, as well as most official intelligence recorded audio is converted into visualize data, which has been analyzed and used to teach the system to recognize bit calls and
2:53 am
other acoustic met. cuz the recorded and processed audio data from the field helps researches and ecology is job conclusions of what for his health. this data can be very useful when it comes to environmental decision making when it comes to equal systems such as far as uh, buds. uh, good indicator of the forest health. when we are getting list submitted from those areas that i've seen declined in reporting rate of this for a specific species. we are able to see that although maybe the forest might not be completely destroyed, we have seen a decline in that equal system health of that area that could probably leads to find that destruction. this can help to launch you for station projects in areas damaged by human activity. like here in campbell county's key in the district.
2:54 am
more than 30000 indigenous trees were planted in a happy to do credit by chuckle, production, and of the cultural encroachments. the cheese, i'm when you touch and tricked overtime, but manual monitoring is time consuming. so these scientists chooses a special tool in a power to this and we've got to dream it is of trees. and it is possible for me to images to sort of acquired the depth of the points on the scene, you know, just know how far the points, uh, how to the out of the ground, the inside thing. so it gives us sort of a 3 dimensional understanding of the scene in front of the camera, citrix machine learning based software. the vision, it's a miracle image is tree height width in the future. the data collected can then be used to project the amount of coupling that can be stored, but
2:55 am
a growing patch or forest, just like the designs with a bio acoustic microphone, the code for citrix, of to ease up in so. so other researches across africa and beyond can freely adopted to help keep it consistently intact. you learn something new every day. fascinating techniques with these we and today's show, i hope you enjoyed it as much as i did. i have chris that lives in lagos, nigeria. thank you, please, and thank you to all of you of us with joining us. don't forget to head to an equal offer. go online thoughts, vince boys firing stories and if you want to share with us, please do drop us a line at equal out to do the come see all again next week i and some drug a holmes that we know do with a good buy from complex right here, you've got the, the
