i know we're open for business but not for cyo. this is the deputy is africa coming up in the next 15 minutes drought. and prop failure a spat he finds more people in africa osce seeing and feeling the effects of climate change. their house everything there's nothing left. we're here to suffer. we're suffering i don't know where we're going to be able to stay right. and the hidden treasures he gets to be and it did i wrote these national museums and i'm catalogued insight into africa's distant. this must come. for them. in. a boat.

the kind of coca that. used to exist jews and got tired. hello i'm christine. africa it's good to have you along climate change is set to hit africa harder than at the continent's agriculture is the backbone off economy in many countries and that makes the recurrence of drought storms and other climate effect is an existential threat to people and economies alike not a survey by the group afro barometer shows off of africans have seen the effects of climate change with their own eye so with africans are aware of the debate on climate change itself and the survey shows many aren't they all went away of what's happening i'll coverage begins in tokyo. along togo's coast just

east of the capital niamey villages a feeling the devastation of rising sea levels only the remains of this fishing village are left standing. kojo and his family had to leave their fisherman's cabin when the waters began to rise. the house everything there's nothing left. we are here suffering. we're suffering i don't know where we're going to be able to stay right now. the sea reclaims up to 10 meters of land on this coast every year entire communities have been forced to flee in this area 500 people made a living from fishing have been offered no assistance to relocate or rebuild. we have no way of finding the money to rebuild our house. climate change is a key factor. for climate change with its warming

effect on the planet due to melting glaciers and rising sea water temperatures is an aggravating factor in coastal erosion. but a glance towards the horizon reveals another likely culprit for the coastal erosion the constant stream of gigantic cargo ships in and out of the port locals allege that after the ports construction in the late 1960 s. the sea level began to rise this dike in the harbor doesn't help it blocks the sand currents that would normally build up the coast in all 3000 people have been displaced due to the rising sea level several 100 others a facing the same fate anxiously watching the waters. ok so the effort also looks at what the group called climate change literacy bets when people have heard of climate change understand it has negative consequences and understand that

human activity is in part responsible for the results were mixed across the continent a reporter asked people on the streets of johannesburg in south africa if they'd heard of climate change. know exactly but what i think. if. i were to quote someone in the room to change the climate changes in the well carbon dioxide or greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and i know that when there's more gases it blocks the heat from coming out so than it is it's because woman side the atmosphere. when people. see these.

changes said climate change is basically when temperatures go hotter than what they mean causing ice caps to melt and ritual seen being the days if you miss my guess a day is a climate activist based in johannesburg simple he works for. 350 africa welcome to africa your organizations mission statement says you want to build an african movement to fight climate change how do we fight climate change in africa. thank you very much christine for inviting me i think there's a couple of ways in which you. change in africa but the way in which the 50 doesn't is that we invest a lot in the community please do and as asians on the ground that are working on telling issues that are created of course passionate change so that's the fact he doesn't in that we made sure that we work with these organizations on the ground

that we know have the expertise not the. challenges that face him because of climate change and possibly a solution so what we do is just bring and support and resources to enable them to actually feel like they can actually reach an exchange right and you know talking about climate change my understanding is that africa is among the most vulnerable of. the global community as a continent that we are very vulnerable to climate change if we're seeing that we're seeing examples of that. but when it comes to our contribution for example c o 2 emissions were counted among the least even as a collective you have talked about holding african leaders accountable to climate justice for example and i wonder what do alligators have to be accountable for all . well i think. you know we as

africa's a continent rianna very unique position in that we feel like we did not create. a unique position we find ourselves in is that region actually create a new energy revolution which it is incompetence is you know to just transition so what i'm trying to say basically is that because we did not create the problem does not mean the problem will not affect us. like you said it will probably affect us the most so the best thing to do for us as africans and our african leaders is to actually show leadership you know transitioning from this fossil fuel. fossil fuel energy systems that we find ourselves internally and start looking at just transition into the nuclear energy future right i mean talking about fossil fuels versus renewable energy on paper it looks like the obvious right why not invest in renewable energy sources especially on account of that africa where we

have you know the sun and all these other natural enemies that help us why is it so difficult to convince african governments to instead go that route offer noble energy versus building a coal power plant for example of nuclear like you guys almost had in south africa . that's a really good question and you know i think in my opinion this goes back to you know that is the poverty that most of the african countries are going through where people do not even ham access to basic electricity and because of that because of their the rapid advance in which we find ourselves in this situation it forces our leaders to think that you know going fossil fossil show which is cheaper is actually the best way to start industrializing in developing our countries well in fact is the complete opposite because we are slowly but surely running out on these resources you know we'll cause your oil and you know you need to really start

right now out in transitioning into and it is you just then that is not only sustainable but becomes cheap but by that you know we've seen that you know renewable energy has gone down significantly over the past decade as far as you know he's concerned you know what and now you know it's right sample of a break at tell me about being goble climate strikes that are planned for september very briefly. so that's what i was trying coming as sort of a spinoff from the your global as asians that's been going on across the water led in part by the u.s. and this is a quote on 2 or the adults you know actually drawing who's using it is not taking this. problem as their own because they know they don't affect them so under $20.00 and to 27th of september we are looking at possibly lunges climate change mobilization and which one involves protest and you haven't anything

that's such a simple bailey and johannesburg thank you thank you very much. the nairobi national museum in kenya is home to one of the world's largest collection are fossils differently and rival in east africa recently the bones of a previously unknown prehistoric on a war turned up in a museum story just one example of a long forgotten discovery in this disorganized treasure trove of a museum deep in the storage of nairobi's national museum this unassuming jaw contains an archaeological gem the giant jawbone of africa's largest ever predator a prehistoric carnival 3 times larger than a polar bear at 23000000 years old this discovery made headlines the world over and is considered essential for developing understanding of the evolution of mammals. it shows the world of africa in terms of. post

systems and what used to be in africa and we can do reconstructions of their environment from the possible from these and what animals they would have interacted with but this important fossil was not on earth this year it actually been in the museum for over 40 years before it's recognized as a new species was using stuff knew the bones were something special they just didn't know exactly what and lacked the resources to properly investigate there are only 7 paid ontologies kenya. and 99 percent of the people working for anus for foreign people so it's important for people in kenya to understand the importance of this to the country. and we venture out of the study. things to do with human origins and evolution the museum

has not changed much since the 1960 s. when famed paleontologists louis leakey 1st started stockpiling his findings the card based handwritten filing system is still in place. these crocodile skeletons are another important asset of the museum which should help to further understand the evolution of animals and the landscapes they inhabited this is. a modern crocodile. in i want to show you it about 3000000 years. the kind of crocodiles that used to exists. between $7.10 new fossils arrive in the museums of the partially every year and the tosk of cleaning and looking each specimen is painstaking. with a bad cloak that could yet take years to work through the hope is that many more unidentified evolutionary treasures lie in wait. and that's an album the diving is
