it's spreading through our society. expects people to agree on ethical guidelines or will this technology create deadly you want thomas weapons systems. robot collapse stores focused on t.w. . the. hello there and welcome to the latest edition of. notes i mean from lagos nigeria now there's so much you can learn on the show if you haven't had any questions about the environment and what you can do on your part just a chance but for now let me introduce my colleague from the show from south africa high end see i hope you're fine and greetings to all you've us out there as and he

said we have a lot in store for you on the program today here's a quick peek at what's coming up. how to charge your fun by riding a bike. why recycle tiles are good for more than just artistic creations. and why the disappearance of wild dogs in zimbabwe is a threat to the environment. we stop the show in south sudan a country that banned the use of plastic bags following kenya's example the country's government says the plastic bag ban has already reduced pollution in the country's capital city by up to 50 percent. but there are still big challenges ahead many say more needs to be done and are continuing their campaign in the country's markets. south sudan imposed

a ban on the important news of plastic bags some time ago but there are still plenty around that's why juba's former deputy mayor neil majak talks to the people directly about the hum plastic bags because while the number of bags used has health since the law was introduced there's still a lack of awareness about the issue he say's my dream is to have every citizen in juba realize that a cleaner environment has greater dividends for all of us and that we will have a cleaner job or. reusable bags are intended to replace plastic ones but some of the market vendors here say that change is bad for business for the prez of one new usable bag they could purchase 20 single used bags for the time because when we used plastic bags we would give them to our customers for free. but now we charge them for the goods themselves and for the bags that they use to take the

goods home. and that means everything is more expensive. but i know some of. the operations. and in fact many residents still use plastic bags something quite evident on the streets no fines have been handed out that's another reason that so many people have been searched and there are others i prefer using these black one because you saw my revolver to me because i can feel i have my items inside here and you can help. prevent. them from making what is inside a web well as this one cannot prevent that so this one i can keep in my mind as you can see i'm ordering a. small sum of money so even if i walk by the wendy's wonderment ok south sudan became independent in 2011 and became its capital city over recent

years the population has increased steadily more and more people are moving to the apple center in search of work that has led to congestion and increased sanitation and ways to disposal problems managing the refuse generated by the capital's 400000 people is one of the biggest challenges the city faces plastic bags form a sizeable portion of that waste to move the bun forward once the environmental awareness raising phase is over bill thirty's will start imposing fines on those found with the bat when it is when it is prohibited it is prohibited and the next thing is 0 tolerance policy that we are going to do is that. we are going to make citizens who are carrying the plastic bag or small good in a plastic bag responsible for that crime juber city council also wants to stop any

plastic bags from being imported into the country but that will require the involvement of several administrative channels that i cry that this place should be clear that we must not litter once this behavior become part and parcel of the citizens of juba that they would be telling themselves littering is a crime that is when i would go home and. south sudan has been in the grip of a crippling civil war for over 5 years now but that peace treaty was signed several months ago raising hopes of an end to the conflict as a result people who fled cities like juba are now returning to what should be increasingly clean and green places comes to the country's plastic bag ban. searching to germany now many people here ride a bike to work even in the winter but the murder from what is now so popular that some people even push pedals for fun you heard right not only on the street but

also in the library and they have a nice side effect see for yourself in this week's doing your bit for the environment. do you know the feeling. you're out and about and your phone battery is running low. or even worse you're at the library. and there's no way to charge your smartphone. a public library in berlin has come up with a solution. that is books of course but it also has an indoor bike. a built in airco meter generates electricity. enough current

to charge a phone or other small device it's. cycling also has a positive effect on concentration. so you can charge your brain and your phone at the same time. a little bit how about you if you're also doing your bit tell us about it. visit our website or send us a tweet. during your. we share your story. in many places in africa apes are threatened that's because there's large scale deforestation in many countries but also due to the spread of farming the animals have found one of the largest sanctuaries in uganda why is that n.t. well that's because there is an expression the hard density of primates and kibali

national park 13 different species so now the park has become one of the country's most important tourist attractions we joined a tall and has this. you have to head deep into the forests here if you want to catch a glimpse of key barely national parks for the most inhabitants such as the red color was monkey no where would you find a higher density of primates then here in western uganda it boasts 13 species in all not including humans. but where are the chimpanzees chimp trackin is one of the park's most popular attractions of prio we have a list but nest the chimpanzees butte each night is the 1st sign of their presence so far and making mists is really a very point done on different places because these are one way of avoiding the enemies. bred or predators and also can in this for human

beings work rooms we can send in blood feuds on our beds over night but you keep changing this after more than an hour of tracking the group discovers the chimpanzees or rather the chimps discover them. and they call out to notify the argos. for this group of having to eat animals it's not deferred contact with tourists they get and. still they could be dangerous so visitors have to follow the rules like maintain a distance of at least 8 me says. chimpanzees eat on sand termites but also fruits and even meet us.

yes. they are fairly safe because the local people benefit from their being protected. 20 percent of the pac entry and all the fees goes to the local community. and residents get controlled access to the forest. grasses and other provoke come forth from the fox for specific trees species we come right through the management of the right. and must be. given and given protection going to harness. once. this is end the leader of the chimpanzee troupe. their mother when you were young and was brought up by strong. first in the higher

ranking and they speak in a manner but it comes as a surprise to many so men that chimpanzees hunt and eat other primates. is one of them would be content when it comes to the chimps starting their markets fighting for their greed for a bus monkey. block on the way to total bust. they hunted bubble and for their big. big target 2 stories to grab the babies then they need to meet with a $150.00 tracking fee tourist an important source of income for the national pack and when after their tour they understand the try to species better they are more likely to take a stand for their protection. for the better experience this give back to the look at us they relax in their trees like we do at the beaches at home they help forward they're given from a good which was

a great experience to know i didn't know that and the other thing is. the next holiday party they keep making funny noises they're going to get to themselves. as 1450 chimpanzees are uganda's not just population of this endangered species the closest living relative of humankind. so we go from the beautiful forest in uganda to recycling business in germany where the cars bikes or tractors most stars have to be changed regularly long before the rubber starts to crumble and becomes news and to the owner but rubble is actually extremely long lasting material and that's why recycling ties has great potential all the things that can be made from then you can see in our next photo. is this

the end of the road for these tires that trade has worn down and they're no longer safe for driving but what others throw away is a valuable commodity for one company based in eastern germany danny shelby is particularly interested in large truck tires take of it i haven't larry tires consist of rubber natural rubber and wire by a wire right here in the tread and along the rim and those are 2 components that can be separated easily when you remove the wire with a magnet leaving the rubber. in the time manufacturing process heat is used to compress the rubber making the tires firm and heavy. so special machines a needed to shred them. they use as much energy annually as 1200 households. danny felber gets the tires for nothing. but his recycling company near to speak o.

does have to pick them up from carriages entire dealers. and because the truck tires the so bulky only $100.00 actually fit into a container. i really have to keep the driving in the transport costs down we try to source our tires locally but as we produce 20000 tons of rubber granular it from the truck tires alone we sometimes have to travel hundreds of kilometers to get enough of the offensive with. colin based design to catch a van or doesn't have quite as far to go she gets her old material for free from bicycle shops in her neighborhood. a lot of her products are made from in achieves. as a. right i look for inner tubes with specific wits because i need them for various products happy and full of and i tend to focus on what i call prized pieces

which might be in past or patched up or have a manufacturer's branding. i pick out the most interesting ones 1st. year. as well as expensive handbags and other one off creations such a vendor also makes wallets and key fobs that sell a prices similar to those of commercial products. in comparison to other materials the designers says that rubber has many advantages. as a child i mean much someone great thing about this material is the supply is endless there's more than you could ever need it's also waterproof it's terrible it's completely begun and for many it's a good alternative to leather you know but the tire recycling company is no longer any sign of the original form. the shredded rubber is molded into everything from

small mats to large sheets weighing 80 kilos. is emitted into the compressed with a force of a 1000 tons so they're pretty tough business. over them with tanks you have developed a new process that allows us to use the maximum amount of recycled rubber some products integrate natural couch work or other substances. but we don't we only use old timers. customers like the recycled rubber when used as flooring the sheets don't have to be glued down and they can stand up to the elements. that build in fell's castle they're being used to protect the granite slabs in the courtyard. once the restoration work is finished the mats can be cleaned and used elsewhere. this robust material last for years. the idea behind. the energy in the sun to power our homes is gaining ground in

africa and indeed in nigeria when it is all being used how do we maintain this resources how do we manage their homes that are part by solar and all of that well a certain idea and decided he wanted to do something about it so he set out what he calls a solar academy is teaching young people how to manage solar plates installations and all of that is also taking young men and women off the streets by this let's go to this academy. how to properly installed. repat and maintain solar panels that's part of the basic curriculum at the a steven renewable energy academy 40 kilometers north of lagos the educational institute opened in october 27th and so far around $145.00 students have received instruction songwriters from the south who was driving home so that when you get to be prepared for the sun like tonight well i

don't hear enough to have connected all. the while down here for positive or negative the training is broken down into units it begins with a classroom session where the students are taught the basic principles and applications of solar energy that is followed by hands on experience outside the classroom here the students learn more about the competence of the solar energy system battery charge controller and solar converter and most importantly how to successfully markets to solar park it had been able to understand and know how to talk to a plank and how to make a conditional properly it almost. solely. because sometime. on the capacity of the system where you clank coyote identical he's a recent graduate of the renewable energy academy he recently installed

a solar energy system for the shop now more and more people are turning to solar palm. i thought i moved. it was during that training and now go to know that a lot of things. we have been doing one way or before but now i'll never go back and we keep. a stephen academy only sonny a portable and his team for the summer training free of charge but the company also sells packages to people in the rural areas it is a win win situation. for all to be able to create more jobs for africans where we. saw many of these students graduate house to be taught how do i do designs of a solar system how do i install it and how do i maintain need for soft inability

a stephen renewable energy academy wants to expand its educational program the team is planning to build another academy in the niger and capital abou jobs. did you know that african wild dogs are extremely successful hunters they are kill rate put chases of around 80 percent and that's far more than loans and that's just one example the pack animals are key to calling heavy of all populations once helps to keep the ecosystem balanced but there is a problem for the. land and sea they're under threat believe it or not wild dogs used to be a common sight on africa's savannah's in the mid 20th century they were around hoff a 1000000 of them but their range has grown more and more limited and their numbers have been decimated and this week's show we had to southeastern zimbabwe to visit conservationists working to give these unique animals

a future. as the day cools down life in the bush and southeast and begins to reawaken. even. the african wild dogs spent the hottest part of the day sleeping in the shade. now in the late afternoon the pack comes together ready to go out hunting. it's the perfect time for jessica water maya to check up on them she heads a conservation project for wild dogs in the survey valley conservancy. it's a protected area covering 3000 square kilometers. but they are incredibly social pack animals so it's just the way that they interact with each other the way they take care of each other where they take care of the pepe's opec members pull together to look after each other and very different from other social convoys for example line when wild dogs either kill the adults one at the pepsi 1st they will

look off to the into they will take me back to the injured wild dogs or among the most endangered carnivores in africa with population numbers of around $7000.00 at most the southern valley conservancy provides a large area for them to roam freely which is exactly what they need to survive. they prey on gamers such as in parlors. the survey valley conservancy was originally formed from an amalgamation of large private ranches that finances itself through tourism and controlled sustainable hunting. outside the conservancy little of the original bush remains the local population has grown on more and more land has gone over to farming leading to increased contact between wildlife and humans. victor chibuye of the african wildlife conservation fund is responsible for the school based education program. whatever the education

was by a teaches the children about the food chain and explains what happens when one species dies out the idea is to help the children learn the importance of conservation was no photos example i think it's great to learn about protecting the animals no we're not going to go no no i know that if poachers come i need to report it to the police or my teachers when they are going to do you really see that even if you see snake it is. they will tell you that. doesn't lead to these things they see ready music leave this think it's good to leave because it's clearly easier inputted for the it was just. doesn't do this school we have been here for it. is that for pussy but african wild dogs are still exposed to danger even inside the park as we discovered the next day

2 dogs got caught in a snare trap jessica water my is at the scene when the ranger arrives. so we rushed just soon as possible and got it within 20 minutes of the report but on 40 bucks on the gotcha the dogs had already strangled themselves and suffocated. it's a senseless killing the dogs won't even the poachers target. the traps were set to catch antelopes. the dogs had tried to free themselves by biting through the wire but the copper was too tough we're still it's the alpha male that's been killed along with another adult dog the best hunters of the pack. why a snare traps are almost invisible in the dense bush and the area is vast but the rangers have still managed to find or around 50 of them. as conservationist working in africa we have a duty to protect them to make sure they stay for future generations and they are completely distinct species and once they're gone they're gone the rest of the pack

will stick together until the juveniles are fully grown fortunately the alpha female wasn't lost otherwise the pack would have broken up but with her mate now gone hopes of gaining a new litter of puppies this year look slim. i'm that's how we come to the end of this week's edition of africa thank you so much for being a part of the show i'm doing and show you join us again same time make street. from before sleepwalking lagos nigeria so you same time next week and it's also time for me it's say farewell from joburg in south africa but remember you can always check in with us on our social media platforms or our eco africa website so long for now but by. oh. oh.
