shashank hello this is you new balls speaking when i come to the show with a ding dong ha i am to concerts. with the most reviews give us. a sound. and an incredible location. truly great every week on t.w. . you. up for sort of the lead to stick knowledge in nearly every aspect of life has been tremendous but what we often forget is that our ancestors try to do with the knowledge they had access to big traditional farming practices for example they

promoted biodiversity and defined climate change to hundreds of years the forgotten power of traditional knowledge that's awful but today welcome to eco india your environment magazine. coming to you from mumbai drug use is the most cultivated green on the planet and 50 percent of india that's roughly 600000000 people consume rice for sustenance but a need to ensure food security in the my $960.00 s. led to a decision the fee is the diversity of rice the country has traditionally bolstered off a small group of farmers and carola is trying to revive this let's find out how. this is a work of art johnson. blah. entered one paddy sapling at

a time. for only a poem and other farmers in the van and district of cattle are cultivating paddy is not just a means of living it is a view of life that has existed since before they can remember. when i 1st started cultivating native berry people were very curious about the color of the crop they wondered if they got burnt but if medicines were used local i was added soon people started coming just to take pictures of the colorful body which very encouraging on the corners and often. only open arms field art is a glimpse into the vast and diverse bank of the over 100000 paddies trained need of to india a country where rice is the staple food for more than half its population. things

began to take a turn in the 1960 s. and policymakers struggled to address a newly independent india is growing hunger problem under the green revolution program farmers were asked to forego their indigenous seed varieties and favor high yield hybrids. the policy makers are that if you change the practices of the fatherless you can improve the productivity and that and they got the seeds from a rational basis such institute and they are called holding by case in the last 50 years almost 7580 percent of biodiversity from that because the field is gone which includes agro by the rest of it's mean certainly for seeds of farmers and also that a lot of biodiversity around the traditional farmers face. when biodiversity is lost the soil becomes weaker the ground go. as much water and

it becomes harder for crops to desist best. but a few farmers have fought to hold onto native seats which are deeply rooted in a culture. like shade over a year old roman a member of the tribe who has been able to conserve 50 to one ideas of indigenous body some of which were passed on to him as. a matter of when you know i'm going to argue that in the same vein be identifier children i'm able to identify all the seats that i take care of in the beginning i had 6 types of seeds which are 100 down from my uncle to me in 1909 and i. only vaguely and gender lou or carnage are nearly 200 were lower than baldoni and i started with all those from 2000 i started hunting for similar seeds.

yet. a lot of what by authority says. john has sold for i'm preserved as many traditional grains as he could find that are on the verge of extinction like to adam at a gun top challenge the main ingredient of the famous model by a very i mean. it is getting better by the way and this is. part of indian born new nirvana. and this is the shyly. in the olden days this was the rice which was eaten by ok things it was truly fit for kings i don't i give it out that commodity going on out of the. indigenous seeds are more best resistant in addition they are best and opted to the local climate and that means they are best suited to withstand climate

change. this is especially significant for get it up over to toad's of its land underbody cultivation has been lost since the 1980 s. a movement called save our rice has been working at farmers across 7 indian states to help guns of indigenous train's off rise and improve the quality of the land. blackstone yes maybe but i believe that especially you know climate change is also is it's a ridiculous good thing so you need to put a lot of resources for far less in the field. starting from production to look at that ability by india in a in a sustainable manner than. the governor going to develop and that is likely think. up out of 3 months farm land has been resolved you can't do it each without the without the use of any chemical fertilisers on pesticides he also believes it's all about sharing and encourages his fellow farmers to exchange and experiment.

that america was a movie this is not meant to be sold this would be passed on from one farmer to another by hand with alligator with it out of all the knowledge i have is what was passed on to me and what i learnt by seeing and doing and understanding things that only it is not something i've learnt to read in books or by researching on the internet and then years. for his enduring gonzo ration book chattaway yale drama and was awarded the blonde genome savior award by the government of india. traditionally. plants animals human beings and other organisms on earth interact with each other can make a significant contribution to sustainable development today but it often comes down

to adapting old traditions to new conditions. many small farmers across the world. to make for typhoons releasing the last amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere but they're not projects aimed at getting farmers to give up the slash and burn methods in belize for example in the trees are being planted to make the ground for type and the tops of trees form a canopy and the fallen leaves create a rich nitrogen soil. many indigenous people preserve important and useful knowledge about whole plants like in the amazon region equals in the region as communities are bringing the today forest gardens to good restaurants. even all construction methods of getting new attention in india an organization.

has to build earthquake proof houses using local building materials. traditionally construction techniques to build hof timbered houses have been used all around. half timbered houses are undergoing a revival in popularity they've even started bollywood. this picture backdrop looks like something out of a fairy tale but old have tempered houses can be found in many european cities. even bollywood seems to a phone and over them several movies that featured their stars dancing in front of german have timber houses. the tradition dates back to the 12th century buildings are constructed from a wooden structure filled with brick or loam that made sense wood sand and clay were all freely available materials.

this have timber houses not even one year old yet it was built using the old methods have timbered inside and outside for owner nor but it was important to have a low energy home equipped with the latest technology but the roof too is based on a historical design it's a so-called cold roof which is well ventilated. that's an old building technique in the sense that in the past they were only called roos and you notice that in the old buildings where attics are not insulated but in the summer it remains a quite pleasant temperature at the top of the house but that's all it down to the way it's constructed. at the same time the heating technology in the house is cutting edge of fuel cells supplies the building with electricity a solar thermal system provides warm water on the ground floor and underfloor

heating system is being built that uses brick just store the warmth the windows are made of smart glass that darkens when the sun shines keeping out about 90 percent of the heat in summer the house was built by construction company owner heiko schultz for more than 25 years he's been building have to bring houses based on old designs but with the latest technology inside. it's a real challenge people used to build very differently centuries no one was concerned with energy efficiency and cetera these days we have to work with significantly thicker walls and accommodate very different things windows have to be fitted completely differently and it all has to be done so that it's not visible outside. the wooden skeleton is constructed in a carpenter's workshop using only timber grown in europe spruce fur large douglas

fir or oak. just as in olden times no nails are used. instead the beams are connected with joint secured with opec's in keeping with traditional methods. this is a joint that has been used by carpenters for centuries only wood is used. the advantage is that it expands in the same way when temperatures fluctuate that's not the case if you use wood together with metal and that can cause damage in the long term a joint that only involves would avoid this problem. but. about 12 cubic meters of wood are needed to construct a house with an area of 200 square meters if you place the timbers end to end they would stretch almost one kilometer it might sound like a lot but wood is a lot more sustainable than other conventional building materials like concrete and

cement the hard family is also building a have timber house based on historical design originally they wanted to build a wooden house but they couldn't because of planning restrictions for them that have tempered house is a successful compromise but if. you have a specialist always we hope the mix of wood and load will create a healthy living environment 1st thought was wood and the idea morphed into a half timbered design the entire house is built without a single stone in. today's new have tempered houses don't show their youth they've got several centuries ahead of them perhaps even provide a backdrop for a bollywood movie someday soon just like their historical counterparts. it's not uncommon to hear that knowledge is being lost due to the effects of modernization and changing lifestyles sometimes knowledge doesn't get passed down

to us and can die out as little as possible this is a loss for society as a whole but there's good solutions can help italian grandmas share their skills and attempt to christopher. meet the. pastor grannies web page introduces italian grandmothers their traditional recipes local noodle shapes and personal stories from all around usually. the intention behind the project is to preserve the centuries old past a tradition. the site was founded by british food writer vicky venice and she's been living in central italy. only for the past 12 years i noticed that young women had to go out to work and simply weren't making pastor anymore it is only the older women and i thought someone needs to make a record of that so it is not just about learning about pastor which is a universally loved food it's also. a grammy the residents were

grandmothers and everybody loves their own. today she's visiting a past a granny from a neighboring village. vickie benison films and interviews heart while she makes past her innocence she's been living in central italy for the past 12 years i noticed that young women had to go out to work and simply weren't making pastor anymore it is only the older women and i thought someone needs to make a record of that so it is not just about learning about pastor which is a universally loved food it's also. granting the residents with grandmothers and everybody loves their own. today she's visiting a past a granny from a neighboring village. vickie benison films and interviews heart while she makes past her. one thing.

and when did you start making this particular pastor. do you remember. if. she did or you know you're making this pastor since i was about 10 all the stuff that you all know. my mother taught me and my sister's me to a. video rolled out to joe finley down to 2 millimeters thickness. then she cut it into little squares. today she's making cup electee here in the marquee region this field pastors. popular on holidays. the mayor has nimble hands when it comes to shaping the pastor. is it difficult not at all in fact it's easy all you do is folded and press the ends together at. the family to do 40 move there. well

it didn't take long to persuade you to take part in a project. i think it's great in this way others can learn our recipes and the tradition won't die out the fact is that. vicki benison has already visited more than $200.00 paster grannies. hardly any of the grannies can actually name precise measurements but years of experience have talked them how to gauge the right proportions. africa command is homemade pasta dough i don't quite and this is how it should look there and solution as well as nice and even. to pass the grannies are on instagram as well. sandon you choose. i think it's important to celebrate all the women's experience. celebrate

its and just have fun with it really because it's quite often women often a bit shy and stay in the background and it's nice to kind of push them into the center. she hopes her project will inspire other people to visit grandmothers in the countries they live in and preserve their recipes and charms for generations to come. now remember my grandma used to drink water out of an old the pot she used to see who are in the water and did not require electricity storing water in these ports was a common practice across india before the wide scale use of refrigerators one man in delhi is bringing back this practice and ensuring that everyone in his neighborhood has access to clean water.

for the last year was allowed not large and has. been on a mission to make sure no one in his neighborhood goes thirsty i start my base of 5 o'clock meaning to deliver the 1st round of water for the market and then i come back and i like plug my system starts and he takes over and he starts delivering water. might cause arden parts commonly used across india to store water and keep cool not transient as popularly called the much comment because he has installed nearly a 100 water pots in his neighborhood for public use he fills them 3 to 4 times a day. everybody is more concerned about the b.m.w. and the most abuse of that i phone 8 and that i phone lines you know when you don't really need the i pointed in the eye of one language what is more a ball is making sure that your guard is velcro oid of.

cyclists security guards daily wage labor those rickshaw pullers and pedestrians they are greatly benefited from the service he provides. a staggering 162000000 people in india don't have access to safe water. initiated like now tragedians help improve the situation and. i think the principle people should allocate some water for the public also the house and it's a lame excuse saying that it will encourage all kinds of people all kinds of people make the community and i think really belongs to us everything belongs to the community. it will mark or 30 host and whatever you do is good sincerely. for long now traditional camel herders of which have struggled to make

a living. the community lives on what the councils provide them with transportation and load bearing but with increased urbanization the utility is diminishing the hotels are now looking at sustainable alternatives to preserve their culture a lot importantly their livelihood. this region is india's largest so it's plain and home of the cut i am of their name cut i mean salty in a good get out the these gammas out a special breed that has successfully about that transitional areas of vegetation course among growth and grasslands their diet includes various blondes shrubs and mongrel but if they don't eat mongrel for long these animals get sick i'm going to eventually we story. the heart is in the catch dejan who have been living with the camels for generations are struggling nowadays

to find a preferred food product come and. go to the biggest demand groups are much closer to us so you use a tick tick a moose or to greece and be back within an hour on the way out of that than about 30 on the megas about right now we need to go 6 to 7 kilometers deeper into the desert to look for grazing ground trying to buy the united i'm going to read out of now where the source argument on that i don't want to sign for direction and processing is joining ordinary groves and. sort of what am i going to get there that you're going. to get i was going to. the. as the heart is i called our traditional pastoralist to live on the camels using them for transport or by selling them. but today there's livelihood is threatened the once thriving mongrel forests are fast disappearing giving the.

salt bans for big manufacturers. in 2011 with the help of a local ngo the camel how does organize themselves into the catch. on the turn to fight for their rights over the years they have filed a case in the national green tribunal a special court that deals with the gazers related to and vironment of issues to disallow salt manufacturers from operating in the region and ensure better implementation of the conservation plan of the highly threatened. in 2013 together with the ngo they came up with an idea to secure their livelihood . for years they only use camel wool for their own needs to make seed rests while riding camels are bags for their belongings taking this practice beyond the image it community could not only give them a new more of livelihood but also help guns are the carrier. is

a matter of pride we're. in really here. for this one doesn't require any sort of. that's a lot of chemical buying process. and there is a possibility of getting really beauty products out of this. this one. the engineer coming here has been helping the holders of cards to set up an assembly line process the gallons are sheared once a year just before the region's harsh summer season occur a camel produces about 300 grams to 5 kilograms of oil per year depending on its age that's enough to provide a viable source of income to the camel herders. the women are spending the sheared wool injury on the whole community is involved in the processing of

shearing the wool spinning by hand and weaving the plot. traditional rivers like high lanka are also benefiting from the use of gamma wall as a 3rd generation river he sees immense value in leaving with this wool instead of sheeple for example. their income had genes now they get no. money on time. proved alongside me since we have come together to figure out which has been a market value and how it can benefit us.

to do that only $6000.00 come in the car but with the common herd taking a big step towards reinventing their traditional craft and fighting against the father the spread of the salt industry a sustainable future for both the common and the holders might be possible. collectively we've always been a forward society rarely looking back but examining traditional practices who help us in not to leave inventing the wheel each time we're faced with a new problem we hope we've encouraged you to think about that or even reach out to your grandparents about how be found solutions to their time we'll see you next week until the good but.
