who stepped up to the challenge of helping the villages adapt to these changes in january, february, nobody needs water. so the seems flow and going to the in the us and into the ocean . whereas in april, may everybody, all plans, all humans are all dying for water now and then days. acute shortage of water. ah, what i, what does it by using winter water doing it in the form of life and e mails exactly when the next spring problem is solved using winder water into ice that melson spring. and then you said the in the environmental mountain school, he founded in 1988 has been refining and teaching his ice stupid concept for the
3:39 pm
last 2 years. the pipe brings water and then it falls down and becomes a sofa. you know, the next 50 years, the people who be running this way and now in schools and colleges, i want to engage them in these 2 ways to be sensitive towards the environment in the mountain. so then could be in safe hands. and before we go to the, i will see a little demonstration of how it is formula. now that suppose is the mountain and that bucket there is say the stream from the lake or the same water comes in the by which is under down. but here you can see, and there's pressure in the bite, and then it guns like this. so you can see smaller droplets, which means water is exposed to the minus 2 in the minus 30 air, loses its heat and freezes. there is no moving, but there's no electricity. yes,
3:40 pm
gravity, that's the beauty of it. good. when we're heading up to the ice, stoopa is further up in the mountains. first, we have to make a quick strong. oh god. okay. with these for the ice to push the ice form. so this is a kind of bio pies like the skeleton of their stupor if you like. ready i'll go and give them a hand with her day. my contribution.
3:41 pm
ah wow. never seen anything like that before. this is her. now i understand. you know, it's quite a bunk. his idea is quite, is quite crazy. really. on the design of the steeple is critical for his success. he must have a minimal surface area to provide a maximum protection from the sun. this enables it to last long in to spring, sometimes up to 4 months. if the same volume of ice was a flat glacier, it would melt within days, while his claim to talk
3:42 pm
with crampons and ice ex, and he's thrown down this rope and he's is putting them on piece by piece and just adding them to the pile. the prickly buck dorn is added all the way to the top of the stoopa. the water catches on to the thorns making it easy to crystallize in the cold weather. and when you see the size of it, you really understand how that could have a significant impact for irrigation. what you reckon the volume of water is there to 1000000 leaders doing in the bottom of that tunnel? really in the heart, the ice deeper is this large plate. that's the one is channeling the melt water down from the gracie up on the mountain coming down to the base of that pipe. and because i had a pressures forcing it, 15 or 20 me is up at the edge and 2 sprinkler gutierrez, structure,
3:43 pm
spooky, lou, sometimes vision isn't just about a handful of ice to put in one ment, village. hundreds of protecting the entire himalayas in helping irrigate fields in forests or $5000.00 trees were planted in 2015 and irrigated each spring with the water harvested from the ice to bush. he's already one global recognition for this project. was the future for these guys where this is going in. the next is, i think going into different directions, lower and lower towards the people in the villages, higher and higher towards the highest parts of the valley. where you can grow many of them chains of them. so our hope is we could legally share what we have lost do by dying and adapt to changing climate. so it just lost the sun over the hill. it's
3:44 pm
getting cold very quickly. but we've got a plan because stands in intimacy and they've brought some prayer legs to tie up on to the top of these 2. i stupid, and we'll get a sense to more morning how effective they are treating is amazing. struck his daughter in the plate is released overnight when temperatures, which minus 20 minus 30 degrees, i slowly building up these structures until he reach heights of 60 or 70 feet. yeah. if i care oil rig i get struck oil. but if drug boy, ah, the next morning i returned to the stupidest to see the changes happen overnight. ah, well,

3:46 pm
they are gone will be done. and it will be real that with no light people in big city, if they live simply than people in the mountains, would simply live. and the sooner or later it could come to their own doorsteps. so we should be sensitive to see the 1st fine and men our ways ah, around the world sources of fresh water. dwindling and drought is spreading. the investment bank, goldman sachs withhold will to the petroleum of the next century. yet it's already fueling tension on the industry of the system you downs, built by india, a seen by rival protestants. a threat to national security in india. anger boiled
3:47 pm

3:50 pm
techniques and plumbing skills, and is supervised by experts with the lady, the main talk. what happens as a full t top. oh, the parts of the top need to come out in order for them they can go back, you know, to say, the pharma can check them one by one. astonishingly, the to, to last till the kitchen is at least 76000000000 letters. enough to my, the needs is 2600000 people attaching the inlet into the tap and i gotta make sure it's very secure. okay, that's tight enough. okay, good. a good title. so what made you want to go? and of course, i know yet it might have been a bit but not with. ringback women are specifically
3:51 pm
being trained because in traditional middle eastern culture, the husband must be present before a male plan that can visit a being able to fix the problem themselves. states and both time and fighter moved to $3000.00 women around the country landing from the sky. this initiative is making a big difference in some of the quantified or twice women got a job fixing the plumbing and i've been invited to join a piece of metal broken into the time. and if you have any to the water. so they've got to make sure that every drop of nominated ortho about the time or they, we fill it with much more how long have you been a from a been so by the 1015. i love it because it's really, really helpful if you can save something really expensive to us. if the wasn't yeah . oh,
3:52 pm

3:54 pm
getting water to the people living here is a massive logistical operation. carefully controlled with no pipe network, 58 trucks like this one distributed daily to 12000 times in the can almost getting full when the water ones out. that's it. ah technical point of view. we have a bank account here that does not mean resides live. so it's like we are we throwing every new one in weird people? remember, in showing the syrians managed that war to russians is vital for a shock. machine is one of the camps, water promoters, educating the rescue, cheese on how best to conserve their water. the water heater for jordan eats and the quantity it's so small, so they need like an awareness session for them to improve the use it for the water . these awareness sessions to help refugees cope with limited supplies are held
