because like, instead of the welcome to echo off recall. i'm chris a lance in lagos, nigeria, nearly 3 quarters of the earth's surface is covered by water, our oceans and waterways, a home to chain. so thousands of species today. we look at how we can protect these species and benefits from all they have to offer. i am sandra holmes, that we know video right here in complex uganda. here is what we have coming to sustainable and 6, the women. we've a better way to how this oil says income be

a flourishing in the drought. merck in pharma is simple to and most videos and sliding fish. performing in africa's might say, like victoria is providing jobs and food security. let us begin the in south africa, tourists loved the cute sues on cape towns printing waterfront, but not many think about the importance of all these creatures play in under the water or how human activity is affecting them. this is a story of a what can happen when we don't respect the wildlife around us and also what can be done to help this dive is not a tourist. she's on a rescue mission one that needs a delicate hand. she's not to injure target. one of the group of seals bosky in the

sun on the waterfront in cape town. so that frontier the guy that has to poke through a gap between the boards and especially design platform to separately look strip of plastic that could have supplicate the same condition accomplished from the sales perspective. these race thing is lying there. he'll pull the plug on his neck, you'll get upset the seal mixed in many a lot down again. so he doesn't even know there is a human involved. almost 2000000 kate 1st sales live off the coast of south africa . and maybe these highly intelligent animals can even make themselves at home in places like cape town. but the voters here are a wash with plastic waste that poses a threat to the sales as a working hava. the is risk of plastics ending up in the ocean with owens in cape town. it just stories, everything in the ocean. so us, we prefer thought, seem like really hard to scruple that out as they discovered it was put nets that

will allow the water that comes down the drains to be captured and then collected and salted and removed from the ocean. but the team from the to oceans aquarium still have to constantly take individual action. in this case, improvising with a fishing rod in 2023. they freight a 124. seals from plastics. this although it's how to see where the seal is. of it, great to risk majority of our entanglements that we remove from off seals of fishing related. so these are we believe to be outside of our harbor. they also use interact with them when they swim out to far to see they get new stuff in them and they get stuck with them and they pretend, ha, ha, this and tangled. a lot of these are bucks, spanned fishing line along quoting island braid. this is an example of one field that had all 3 of these and tongue. one items attached that about 12 items removed from them, which is quite a phenomenal number. the capes, the seals play

a vital role in the eco system of the coast of southern africa under a source of unending and fascination for marine biologist on underwater photographer donald vent. so we've been diving with them for 10 years now. the animals are busy hunting, sometimes eating up to attend some of their own body weight in one day the eastern specie, meaning if you take them out, the whole ecos stem is on the verge of collapse to the top down and buttoned down predators. meaning they feed on animals like fish and squared, keeping the populations in check, making sure they don't. oh, the boom, as well as they are the prey full animals like sharks and all goes meaning that they also help maintain the healthy shop population in oceans. but in a disturbing recent development, there's been a string of seal attacks on people, sometimes even online,

typically in response to being provokes. but while the animals losing the fear of us, scientific analysis of blood samples from such sales. but we're bill toxins trace back to a form of augi, the balloons of the south african coast. the talk since consults with the animals brain chemistry and make them more aggressive. and a separate development. sales have been testing positive for ratings, you know, working with a lot of stakeholders. and together we can, we can in time figure out solutions, but at the moment it's just a way in this off of the disease. while the causes remain unclear, under what the tourists need to be wary when the seals, they encounter no longer seemed just curious, so playful. at cape tongue, diving the schools offerings still encounter to us staff have already begun to adjust the safety precautions. so if we get to an area

where seals are behaving in a, in a strange way we, we re done for times in the winter and we not driving immediately adjacent to the seal hold us where we would previously encounter logic concentrations of sales. we, we, we, diving away from those areas. the capes, the seal population has recovered since the ninety's tanks to bond on commercial hunting in south africa. as for the current conflicts, leaving the seals in peace certainly wouldn't do any harm. ready keyless human activity has been affecting underwater life in other ways. our next story takes us to kenya and the was the same as last victoria, which provides a livelihood for some 4000000 people. the problem is that the fishing has proven don't fish talk. some people trying out a different way to farm in the lake that is most sustainable then doing it on the

land and it's bringing other benefits to today's catch has just arrived. louise macaulay works as an agent with juliet fish farms on lake victoria, africa's largest fresh water like a a mother of 3. she's glad to work for a company that believes in empowering women. i believe you like the village that i have in july. it is the fact that we can sit tool and share a meal with my bosses and other companies you might allow to voice your opinions short the early hours of the morning or the best time to collect the fish you no sweat a and to somebody found to do that, to fish farms over a decade ago. today it's specialized in cage fish, foaming, and selective breeding. we've grown as that made. yeah. hi teddy. i live in high

city in pena. so this the $1200000.00 seemed that means by month. when does that, it would be $150000.00 thing. i mean say do let's fish tom squared is primarily nile to lafayette, which isn't growing demand. crucially, it has a high tolerance to changes in water quality, which are governed by environmental factors. informational most equality and other parameters such as fish stokes is provided by the canyon. marine and fisheries was such institutes, which has an office on lake victoria. as we look at the environment on the organisms like leaving it. and we want to talk the environment there. what uh, what i mean does our, the change all the time and space. and also we look at the how that affects the

fish and the people that depend on the lake for somebody, one of the is the lakes. fish stokes have been badly depleted by over fishing and illegal operations. dropping by 25 percent in the last decades at quick coat to reduce the impact on the lakes bio diversity and also improves food security. and comparison cage foaming allows for the best to control of the production environment. the institute identify suitable species for agriculture and also office training to business is focused on sustainable fish breeding. you need to have people who understand this fucking density is like home inefficient kind of a mess up in the area. how to feed them, what type of food they need to grow. and also how do you, my name's this, is this because uh with the crowding status of

a plus friend on the see if he knows where it has a most is in at quick coach. yeah. and recognized its potential early on the know shows his expertise in an at quick coach academy a training program at corporate and as in east africa. his company ends to have at least 60 percent female employees, the set to can drive social change in local communities. he believes we have our women that i was, that we tend to live directly because that was the number of our flush. how do we mean they get enough money for themselves and for their families? they can get into school. some also have seventy's as abuse in this besides, so that's working for the unit as an agent for the company. the reason because a is supplied with ice to keep the produce fresh. in the past, she goes around with motorcycle taxis,

but now she can use the company truck. she regularly deliveries to 15 to 20 female market vendors. they to a hunting. well, thanks to to let's payment system another company, another companies you buy, cash on deliver is way one. that's why they come to do that because you get fish on credit. what will that you well known? and then if i buy a sustainable business model, a sustainable industry, agriculture is helping ensure that lake victoria can still provide millions of east africans with a likelihood what type self is a precious result, of course, which you meant cause climate change affecting whether parton's water is increasingly in short, supply across north africa, farm us having to get smotts to cope with ongoing drought air as well as alicia and from a roco that's helping to save or to boost the harvest a

fine. so tom sees orchard is appearing fruit despite the drought in the north american town of maintenance. this opinion audience are also growing beautifully phone with just a little water for around 14 years. find sitarski has been growing fruits and vegetables always using drip irrigation, but she's often had unreliable results in terms of her harvest. giftedness of faith, when the additional watering we cannot precisely observe the plants condition. so for example, one tree may have produced fruit while the one right next to it has not up. and these are also still green and have fruit law, but the other dreams are damaged as far as she can add folsham nashua. and this did i saw with the house of a computerized system findings the time. so you can now water each type of plan precisely according to its needs. a sensor measures the soil, moisture, and sense the data directly to her mobile phone. next, what's called

a little information of color coded so i can easily see the areas that need water and those that have had enough. okay, so the device helps me ration my water free back then. uh, what comes up at all the system was designed by a startup and stuff through not far from maintenance, that usually focuses on solar powered systems for agriculture. it's inventor, csa and 3 seats showed us the brains of the operation set of hock us up. and that's if we can get back to spirit data. thanks to this function. because i think about us, i can tell us about temperature with humidity and atmospheric pressure, but because you by adjusting your irrigation amounts accordingly falling sitarski says she has been able to reduce water consumption on the farm by around a 3rd. hadn't been since had the time started using the device this i've had a life that i need less water and fewer resources, you know, it's very beneficial at all. it's financially beneficial to in a year of service,

the system has already paid off the investments of roughly $1100.00 zeros in the forms of bountiful har. let's head now to nothing you wrote with some people say on the wall to find me in hopes a lot of from is of course we don't mean just annual crop ocean say we can be used for fertilizer oxygen until. so that takes, honestly, one can see that the super food, like trees see we'd store coupling dias. items we'd use is the main dream goss that's drive in climate change. the one the cabassos see weed. hospice thing is booming off the coast offs. court land solutions to the climate crisis will take many forms. one of which is algy. that's according to shift color monroe. he comes down to the coast every other

day to collect seaweed. here on the scottish aisle of sky. i think you may be twice or 3 times a week. i should have become a. yeah. see this one here, which is as i would say, probably with the best of the see spaghetti. and you can tell it it's called cecil gets it because it's just like there's like this. again is a quite a subtle flavor. but you can use it just as even spigot 2. together with climate active is shona cameron. the 2 are trying to bring seaweed back into the kitchen as a renewable alternative official means. seaweed is the best of all of the sea and is available all your round. they're sharing these ideas with schools and with recipes for the children to learn. how to me because humans change the climate series and bibles are a huge part of culture. here for centuries, millennial people living in these species, but we've kind of lost ties with that low,

but and higher. can we start reconnect people with that tradition. shona cameron and visions the coast as a garden somewhere with that we can cultivate and use in a responsible way on maybe higher small scale community enterprises could start to use that as a way to support their local economy in math as in to wants to capitalize on the iowa sky, seaweed by growing it. he's a trained fisherman, but for almost 2 years he's been farming, see it as a sidekicks. it's more sustainable, he says. but 1st he must find out which type school best in these waters the. to begin with, we're using this for, but by of the me one and, but we need stand off for testing 1st. see what kind of a nutrients and minerals that has. and then once we fade discovered that we'll, we'll know what we want to do with the after the e and matheson and other

entrepreneurs founded the farm on an area spanning 40 hector's will repeat again, hoff this whole thing for media. i'm not, she produced a right and $200.00 tons of a kelp in the 1st year. and then the following year we'll put in the other half of the grid. so we'll be up to 400 tons in recent years. more and more count farmers have settled around the island. some farms are already producing. the seaweed sky can grow to over 2 meters long, and that's completely fertilizer free. until now, processing has been the bottleneck. a gap in the market, but allison baker is intense. on filling for startup eco cascade is supported by the scottish government. they've just invested in a new shredding plans to see where it is going to

go into a research project for animal phage. but it's oh, sorry, this particular variety of health is very good for, for bias. stimulants is a style improve. allison baker and her colleagues are like our banking on the small industries potential to grow quickly. but so far, large scale commercial uptake has been slower than expected we want to be able to process a lot of see ways that can go on to a commercial market. because that will provide the growth of the industry because farm is, will be able to grow to order. that'll be able to increase the size of a firm. and probably most the way people just have to get used to it. we discovered such just color monroe like that, like any other vegetable and the other thing, but it just goes into see that. yeah, there's a definite, maybe

a shift and mentality that might need to happen. but hopefully it's more people trying to see tablets and things like that that will become more on the see is truly a treasure. and seaweed farming might just go some way towards saving it. the is another very popular underwater crop with an important ecological function is always those on extra pulled. brings those back to going to be out on the western tape of africa. it's atlanta coastline has an abundance of these prize shellfish oil as to how investing in gump yet is usually done by women. but it can be hard and dangerous. so it was great to meet a team of women. we're working hard to make way is to have this thing not only sustainable box safer as well, or it's just flourish in model for a tie. type,

the amount of roots of covered by the what to the or says attach themselves and through e p. nourished by marie dembo and how similar or is this one was what inspired but this natural to abuses when they set up the cost of funds on the gumby and coast there, constructions, use bumble sticks and ortho shelves to imitate natural conditions. now you said the oil says it says, well, i'm processed. ooh, from like bubble wrapped and tied them with the most inside the see that leave us side to really yeah. where by these, this was a or stuck on just attach 130. if asked if this i'm going to be uh, oil around 8 months. in fact this i'm outside the village. of course, tom is near the bunks of a titled visit. so it's relatively easy to keep an eye on the voice to

the women used to go into the monger forests to have this was oysters, which they really do today was always to a how does to connect, they are smaller and the damages the trees in the process or what's most title as well as can i make it very dangerous for the women? for marie, them to the new farming technique, only has advantages when it is time to have as well just for the dental, you put it inside the baskets, then you come on with you, your body. then sunday process. my real number is one of thought to be many in the community. you have set up 2 funds. they always lock together and also share the habit. plus the women cook the oysters, then they remove the meat. what's the funding is part of a 5 year food and agricultural organization project that's ends in 6 weeks, right?

it is designs to get people here. sustainable sources of income until now, coastal inhabitants have often encroached on demand for fishing and looking. sam, 26 studies have shown the crucial ecological role. that's one group of forests play long group. i was the most one of them would play spaces on the one of us being on the loss of mung roads. you're going to have a huge effect on the biomass today. we didn't the, the for us. it was an s to any one of the in the box we're going to have is that in a long move, they are going to move into chris that and come on. so when we lose the money was initially i wouldn't have moving out effects, reducing coupling dioxide levels in the actual c will snow global warming. that's why a sustainable relationship with lungfuls is vital always to apricots of phones having to get pushed on the incomes yet. but the hope is that what of mouth will boost

interest in these high binding houses. the projects also include the regular training for the women in full, be setting up the fob, or how to sell the oyster. and they have access to a solar powered fees to store their forties to read this as me some, as i'll put capacity building showed on there. kind of how the associate economic benefits of why did to the data being because that benefits really well. unfortunately, because the system is not that much organized, they don't know. what day is investment use and lucrative industrial? the women not only benefit from the project, they also give something back by planting mangrove seedlings. i think you go to mothers. plan treat. yeah. okay. but we are more focused on mangroves, but i do not have well, it's harvesting oyster is we pay attention to the main groves going out from time to time. and we also go round to find out if people are cutting them or not. i give

you for moving you to the room and of course told me that have not another code division method in which the ortho is google in. net but, but using apple coaches instead of explosion, demand growth, the remainder of the on to protect the local environment. they are building their own lives. they allow us to funds have another way to benefit we will have to take target for destiny by and showing the decent waste to read, you know, in conditions that i should have went to us is going to help in improving uh the, the production as well. and then we'll be able to fit a set of with the fees on a quick question on the bundle. now that we won, so yes, the know i'll quote quote you as an official for assess sufficiency. i still married them, but on the other women, they can already do more than just feed themselves. and that's how the, that of the notice of business is very nice from e. have you

a home cause of some discrepancies. meet the, the order on board line for themselves. the 2 people, homes, cons, i'm trying to. it is a very good business because to project great examples of how environmental protection can succeed is to people effective. but it's also beneficial or if you like that story, or if anything goes in the show, hold your imagination, then please write to us on equal at data be the com. would love to hear what you think. now it is a good buy for me, sandra holmes, that we know do right? yeah. income prolong uganda. and from me, chris alone in lagos, nigeria, thanks for joining us. don't forget to head to equal offer online for moist pirated stories. so you all again, next time the

legal workers and call themselves the blacksmith to a neighbor away, it'd be a lengthy construction site. now they are fighting for their rights to obtain a visual status to get all the training session prussia, because they know is was to find no style. in 15 minutes on the w, the movie, i'm sick talking to the goals house
