it's about the arena scares me the most about this state to seem to arise is that someday we won't even see the reset. button what will become of us who stay behind and simply my husband went to peru because of the crisis. if he hadn't gone there we would have died of hunger the last time i don't want him down. just like this we. don't. believe. in the. hello and welcome to a special edition of the environment magazine co-produced by steven in the jamia in germany and m.t.v. here in uganda this is a special edition because it is episode 200 and i am excited to be presenting it i

am sundra to know in kampala and a big congratulations to the entire team and of course to you to me and to indeed thank you very much sandra and thank you also to our loyal viewers this is a wonderful milestone for us and i'm so glad that we're being able and have the opportunity to talk to our audiences here in africa in europe and around the world about the environment and how important it is to protect it but here's what's coming up on the show today. being able energy gone out with surging. bio gas and bent over public at how we can help families build a better life. on forest management in uganda how the villages have been inspired to do more for the environment. so ghana generates oh. lot of electricity more than it needs in fact but the biggest

challenge i was actually getting into the homes and the businesses and it's become a big problem the supplies pretty unreliable the office opportunities to the private sector providers of of great solutions using renewables experts from germany recently went to ghana to hold workshops on how to set up solar energy companies that can help. in accra many enterprises like this barbershop often experience power outages from the slums. we see you see what i've told you the head of ball off again over the hole. and this right drove us in really really excited. about weirdest most people doesn't affect it just

a lot because without the like you can work. with it's more than $2000000.00 inhabitants the gun in capital demands a huge amount of electricity for the last a kid gonna has been experiencing and maybe is it a crisis that has damaged the country's economy a major contributing factor has been they are reliable and overloaded poetry is a problem it was by a rapidly growing population. donna is an important target list for international investors including germany so it's not surprising to me a bull in a g experts flock to the west african clean energy and environmental fill in the suspension washup still offer technical training in various aspects of solar energy to participants who walk in the sectors such as 28 year old engine e r robot. i want updates myself on the new technologies available.

for improving solar p.v. suspence. been walking for 3 years for adoption cool farm from them it's mainly build solar panel systems for large companies in guyana . designing a system for. an office complex and a massive and is a great time system so i'm preparing to you know it's on their roof it's going to be a roof mounted system bosses enthusiastic of both the top potential in the country although private individuals often can't afford to buy some policy since more and more businesses want them to make the a production less dependent on the unstable power grid we almost we feel that we are just at the beginning of the renewable energy markets in and west africa and we are currently preparing ourselves our families and our methodology for the big boom

that we expect in about 3 years time robots feel son and his coworkers was sitting out he's told i'm an accountant his company has trouble finding skilled stuff in robot hopes that more young people will follow his example and see kwok a symphony is in the renewable energy sector he sees eat us a job would be a bible which. doesn't look right so as an engineer my focus for the future. 5 years from now is that he's from africa looking at continental and possibly have robots not just africa back in quasi it was barbershop their electricity program continues he'd love to be independent of the plate but he can't offer their time the teams. are for good don't fall out. over $3.00 various ways to work on more.

as long as the barbershop stays on the power grid is likely to keep experiencing blackouts even when the lights go out altogether the flickering bulbs show that the country's electricity network is struggling to keep up with the demand. now nearly every day there is news about all this for signs that are going extinct do directly or indirectly to human behavior but surely one of the cruelest and unnecessary activities is a neo wildlife trade in extra poor texas a camera to a conservation education center dedicated to helping vulnerable and endangered species i knew a rival texan he surroundings at the libby wildlife center in come you know this african gray parrot was brought in by a local you'd practice the sumptuary encourages newcomers a fast place inquire and. then can

give a key student text him to be examined back to move it so many of the parents they see a really bad condition reading parasites injured on their feet is clipped to prevent them from flying head veterinarian john and young explains how the bugs get here we'll get. to sources see jaw i mean for authorities and a pleasant year or buy the notion if you can have them on this you need to leave one of the comment other than. the vets we the patients and check their vitals. damaging further polluted nebel of nuance to grow. to examination and treatment the bugs are taken care of until they're well enough to be released back into the wild. as many as $25.00 pirates are brought to the

officially banned but that hasn't deterred on poachers. be a weather center was established in 1993 by the come iranian government and the pan religious foundation where the race q. and rehabilitation of wildlife from red tails to crime it's the medical staff he supported be countless volunteers from kameron and the word. funding is needed for food in magazines and there's a shortage of spares there are plans to build a large cage that will enable the pirates to practice flying before being released it's time you were really just one animal it is exciting about this office. but i don't mind a forest one more and more into conservation. many rule communities across africa depend on firewood for cooking and heating that

country beats to deforestation and greenhouse gas emissions but there are alternatives like bio gas for example made from locally produced guy i mean we're just so under that's true near you know why because then you don't need to cut down trees to generate it on its carbon dioxide emissions tend to be less enterprise besting so many husband to be nice to short term supply there the technology it has developed to provide households with us. by advances both a healthier and a greener alternative to many traditional cooking fields but how can it be distributed sustainably across africa agricultural engineer catchin says come up with a solution she develops the bio gas backpack which is easy to transport as the gas

is very light. started her own company and found african entrepreneurs who sell by or get assistance to farm and. operate the systems to produce and sell the guns should let's police this kind of social enterprise is more effective than development change in the climate what do you mean as a business is more sustainable. to have a burger system to promote values to acknowledge each company can be proud of. she has now given training to business partners from 20 african countries. and how about you. if you are also doing your bit tell us about it visit our website or send us a tweet hash tag doing your best. we share your story of.

what a great project and it is winding partners around the what another great range it is to come up with alternatives to conventional plastics on single use products because they are west of resources and of course an environmental problem let us make to it some one product design is what developing it offering the packaging. packaging that decomposes after it's used. it disappears without causing any damage to the environment. researchers and designers around the world are trying to realize this vision. among them a product designers katia instance ava's. the trigger for that work is the amount

of trash that they themselves produce. 2 years ago there's a view started producing can possible film impacts make from cellulose from which waste which decompose when they come into contact with bacteria in the soil in france italy and switzerland you can put them in the organic waste bin. in the action in germany this isn't possible at the moment we're working to provide evidence that our film decomposes brilliantly in industrial composting facilities and together with waste management companies we also striving to find a solution to the problem of how these materials community in sorting plants so that they can be turned into compost in germany to. another challenge is coming up with packaging that seals in a roma. you just mustard every foodstuff comes with its own challenges in nuts or fatty cheeses bioactive coffee is a roma sensitive so. every product has its own characteristics and they have to be

tested i can't make any assumptions that's the challenge if you have to try everything out and that takes time and it takes money because it's right course material. but the savings have already won over many customers for the single last cellulose phone for example vegetable supply is like sun mom. monica's son months which to box made of composite a bill from 6 months ago as the german waste disposal system doesn't cater for them some mom has come up with an interim solution. that customers can definitely return these bags to us and we'll compost them not all of our customers have compost heaps or a composting bin but they can bring them back to us from post on it just have to sit with. the vegetable delivery from would also like to avoid using conventional plastic for their potted halves but because the thin film used for the leafy greens would come into contact with soil in the pots it would start decomposing too

quickly causing it to rip too easily. xavier's have developed a new film for the application it takes twice as long to come past. avoiding packaging altogether is unrealistic in today's global food industry but there are more immoral turn of tips to conventional petroleum based plastic film and bags. we know head to the salt where local people with the support of the authorities have planted almost 2000000 trees over the past 25 is honest a breezy planting more it is an amazing long time reforestation projects which revived the national park and also helped people in the area to made better life they take responsibility for making a difference a great example to all meant coupled with environmental protection. oh.

feeling the need to see me clear in the bush to give tree seedlings access to direct sunlight so they can grow on me he did she's helping to plant trees as part of a project called face the future it's a forest restoration initiative by the uganda white therefore story to ensure bolli national park connection akiyama 919 game which i don't got a month before joining his project i was announced and so on i'm back in my village my religion from farming wasn't one of our ducks if and that's why i joined here as of he out working on a sort of on a longer course on your own or the model or borne in mind much greater here so now i can afford to pay school fees for my children and lots of offended. calling. in the 1960 s. . to be part of this forest and cut down many trees for decades later they were evicted and reseated by the government since then the aim has been to restore the

forest cover. david way c.g. was supervises the tree planting can still remember how things used to be. nice. how do you think. if the entire place was like. wood for me houses that had collapsed and shrubs and grown all over the place in the east because during the past 25 yards face the future has employed hundreds of locals for 2 gave the house replanted over 1700000 indigenous trees existing trees have been protected i loaned them to regenerate naturally. apart from jobs the locals also benefit from the international carbon trading system more trains means more carbon absorbed from the atmosphere when global carbon traders but they uganda what life authority for keeping the trees it shares up to 20 percent of those revenues with

the communities really fancy used to strain to people's farms and destroyed crops and trees the project used income from the forests to dig long trenches around the national park then they donated beehives to the communities. they sense there is a member of the blue. so bill can't even remember the growth of about 2 from that point so they have to look for and always to monrovia but when the new model bought the unfriendly. reported prince so it's clear they can't jump so that out will go by habitat which is the force local farmer must yes charter agrees that's the intervention was successful the elephants now stay back in the forests and the honey from the bees as also supplemented he's income. chatter received training as

part of the project and is now growing trees alongside his food crops he doesn't need to go to the forest for firewood so often easier it is also better because the trees of helps to reduce soil erosion. grandmother after we go to training what given trees to plant i used to manage without realising that trees are going back and old planted microbes by the soil where your orders are for more hungry for. widespread and some locals who own land of started restoring forests only our own john inherited more than 20 kinds of grazing land from his parents he decided he would prefer forestry to cattle farming and about planting new trees and protecting the existing ones 2 decades later his land is now we have been for wildlife. you know in time joe torre's providing him additional income. on solving

and this is premised on the animals that were. protesting for just this get to know that somebody is there to give them shelter somebody is that to give them protection they'll be here and i think the work of course of a should continue to post becoming in would be coming in moment to be coming in visitors to achieve ali national park they have to $100.04 days palm beach to see i mean it's like pansies in the end that you have been taught but has not gone away you're going to has a rapidly expanding population so there's a reason need for firewood and i because she learned meaning this rate of encroachments is very real but the 1st steps have been taken and she by live forest is no better protected than eva before. more and more young women are going into science and that's a great development let's go visit norina recently who has been working and

studying the national park in mozambique indeed it's an excellent place to study wildlife and our specialty is ads they may be tiny but the very important part of the ecosystem in our sad let's say you know we now tell us why. when know enough you senti sets out on an expedition into go down goes our national park she often head streets for the fever tree forest chances are good that a young scientist will find what she's looking for there she says research and adds with the help of an aspirator she gathers specimens of every species she finds. a lot of people was. a big thing. so why. and. i really want sure the people not just the big animals any importance in our system but

also small one and so because they provide for your. ecosystem would look very different without that the performing port on tasks such as spread and seeds eating digest and plants and distribute new trends within the forest by decompose in large quantities of organic matter. one of the world's most light sets for animal families their presence in almost every habitat and have developed in an incredible variety of ways percent estimates that go to a national park alone over $300.00 different species. why it's so fascinating because as you see we have different what we do we have different learned skills and also have to contribute in terms of

diversity offer and. not enough incentive belongs to the new generation of female scientist in gotham goes up the park wants to see more women working to protect its wildlife u.n. figures show that countries with greater gender inequality also have greater levels of forest cover loss air pollution and other environmental problems. dissenters can lead louder carmel it's part of the d.n.a. barcode study aimed at analyze and identify in the parks types. the work done here is part of the world wide undertaking to catalogue all even creatures and decode your d.n.a. the global genetic database will better understanding of the diversity of life on earth and the different functions of species that 2 women hope that will inspire girls to consider careers in science and conservation the work we do we do and it

is i don't know if you know this but the communities around the park want. to get married and the cats here. they make up the family. even before they can have a chance to finish it's important for them to have models. community development essential to go in goes on national parks conservation approach it's authorities want to turn local residents into nature conservation allies using education clinics economic development plan c yet it plan a stamp the key element in this is the girls club led by 2 mentors girls meet in the village to learn and discuss problems c melody is the leader of the program for hair education is the basis for everything here and on. the goes clubs was basically to encourage parents to send their girls to school and because women

generally do not have a value in this communities and also they are not empowered and nobody gives value to the education of women. for the package to this is the long term strategy it will hopefully guide people out of poverty and generate opportunities for young woman to lead self-determined lives maybe someone even joined the sentry and her colleagues on google goes a scientific team. in recent months not enough sente has already identified $200.00 species she's the 1st female scientist to map this type of a city including goza and said to be one to be the last. with come to the end of this week's episode of. but don't worry they'll be plenty more focusing on what you and i can do to kill for the wild we may have it good bye to all our viewers on to you it's good to know that you have been working with the team for

such a long time thank you sandra and i've enjoyed every one to 2 under the edition of the show where yes we've covered a lot of ground already but this deal so much more to explore and so many fascinating stories to tell so stay tuned to see you next week but bye for now.
