beethoven is for. the time for is for. beethoven 202250000 of our street here on you. follow me into a unique unspoiled wood in the middle of the amazon rain forest. it's just in the cool song right and you can take flight a while for the 100th this in los of what choice reality experience was created to inform people about the sudden beauties of nature because learning about the world we live in understanding better own welcome to equal india i'm sorry that i could.

learning begins when the a very young we see hear taste smell and experience the world around us as we grew up and environmentalist in delhi saw this as an opportunity to get a sense of respect for the among the city school children and now runs a fund curricular and an extracurricular program so that the children will grow up to be environmentally conscious about us. good morning to students at the bean not green primary school spend time every day in the school we got here that and the vegetables they have planted. broddi just what you give them their dos for the day the lessons are popular the distance i

don't name. the harvested mustard today but you realize that while sewing something new greek must have got mixed in with the mustard so we carefully separated the truth from each other whenever you make a mistake the teacher gives us several chances and also explains things to us so we learn and do better next time that we don't want the. drug he just was going to give birth with government schools in delhi under her program open classroom learning to farming the course is designed to run over 2 year cycle that can be integrated into each school's academic curriculum. this batch of land which the children have lovingly name doesn't farm is a sandbox for the students it is a sustainable space where they learn all about growing their own food living a box and free lifestyle and making their own informed decisions why should

farming environment and education should be separate. if we're teaching the child tables and he's just not doing it whereas in the field he can do the same thing by sowing seeds and understanding the number of seeds that he's going in the field to learn about the environment you have to be in the field and learn from the field because soil and clowns can teach you so much more i know that kind of learning is actually happening though in the it requires a lot of patience it requires a lot of effort responsibility and when he or she is able to do that that's when the connect happens. and vibrant education has been a compulsory part of india's a school curriculum since 2005 but the extent to which it is actually varies just right and others like her are seeking to address this issue she began her program

in 2017. if they are all was that the students are learning several different things from these sessions even things like the size of an area and the petty meter that's because they're doing everything themselves including putting up the fencing so they end up learning so much more from farming $130.00 and because it's hands on whatever they learn will stay with them with that basically they think you can be really learning them but many. runs an advertising professional just well left to follow her calling the program she has developed for the children ranges from harvesting wayne and cooking the food to go to collect waste making compost and converting plastic waste into eco bricks. that never read all sitting right now is the farm this is read to drop everything and it's all natural and organic we make our own compost and that box would then

you know why not. we talk a lot about coexistence in this. the nature environment is not just for us to do anything and everything that we want to do this and that in fact that our birds and then we had farming we'll answer to a life that important. they could example that we saw they were ready to give that entire batch to the butterflies because we have other patches all to versailles so is growing so why can't this batch before the butterflies to lay eggs vision become god to be let in finally again become part of life so once you talk about that to children and explain the logic of going existence they are very very happy about having in fact that on. her own farm in delhi's. so good just was also gives lessons on and by mental events here children from the neighborhood

are given their own little blocks of ground equipped with due to start growing food to stand she also teaches on how to produce daily things like soap or not to lip balm in this way that the just well has reached out. and children in delhi over the last 2 years keeping it fun and innovative is key to ensuring that the lessons learned is to stay with the children for life. growing up a trip to the museum was a day of filled with excitement about this we get to see. so much information about fingertips it's hard to believe that. some musicians are using this new technology to make sure there is a world of all to look forward to if you. like to be

a came swimming in the amazon river. a frog jumping around in this virtual reality installation participants can slip into the 5 different animal. my favorite one is the vampire but it's so cuddly. and the way it's been done it works really well you get to fly through the rain forest by night with the night vision it's fantastic and. you have to watch out for the spiders behind. you know kruger and her team at the interactive media foundation company in bern design the installation they recreated $400.00 hectares of brazil's 2 mcu mark national park in the amazon rain forest it took over a year 70 $500.00 plants around had to be drawn and programs the installation is

now touring museums around the world. and. we wanted to create an emotional experience that you can dive into and enjoy and that enables people to identify with the animals and in this way to awaken interest in them and in the way they experience the world. and it's working we've had lots of people asking us is it really true that the poison dart frog sees those crazy colors that. how do you know that and how can we find out more. the project required extensive research the internet provided the initial information to decide which animals that are native to the amazon would work best in the installation but the internet alone wasn't enough the artists needed input from scientists they worked closely with biologists that berlin's natural history museum the ones i would issue let's take another look at these wonderful to ranch alerts with eyes on the top not underneath

the eyes don't point upwards it's looking straight ahead. biologist yana hoffman initially found a few mistakes to correct in the virtual reality installation. yeah i just had that is right the 1st time we saw the prototype of the island we noticed there were a few plants that don't exist in south america and certainly not in the amazon does it and is in. it so we have to tan ical experts to give us a list of plants that are found specifically in the amazon and that aren't for example from another part of south america. and then i stopped. staff here at the museum in berlin and understand the importance of using digital media to appeal to a new generation of visitors. here for example you can see what food the dinosaurs ate and how they moved around. first grade

student layla nor like approves. it because they're so colorful and were alive so many years ago. the museum recently began a project to digitalize most of the 30000000 objects on display here some are photographed which requires great precision others are scanned using the world's 1st 3 d. scanner for insects this involves moving the object $396.00 times so it can be displayed fully in 3 d. it's a huge gain for scientists worldwide but also for visitors to the museum in space on the especially for school groups it's great to bring in these digital exhibits we're also developing our own educational apps that allow users to discover the local flora and fauna here in berlin so we're trying to use these digital formats to appeal to the next generation and it's making many areas more accessible to younger visitors. raising interest and wildlife whether it's

putting existing museum exhibits into digital format or using modern technology to create a whole new experience like flying with the harvey you go through the amazon in virtual reality. let's give you a skill snack doctors are amazing creatures they date back to the time of dinosaurs and in 968 a pair of russian authorities is even went into space of unfortunately some 60 percent of all talk toys and talk from world wide are endangered in some cultures that even and hurston traditional medicine side to supporting a lot of effort to preserve the species and most its population. this one. margaery. this one if. you can see.

a one to one to go. mouth and the tortoise baby's live at the anchor center for conservation of biodiversity or a c c b in northwestern cambodia mahler's the caretaker here and starts work at 7 every morning with a quick walk to make sure that everything's in order $79.00 elongated tortoises hatched here 3 months ago today they're going to be weighed and measured. 3233. are the. searched right of. the tool box contains nail polish in all colors of the rainbow the caretakers paint the shelves of the young tortoises to help identify where in the conservation center they're being kept. the tortoises live in special

enclosures that are open to the sky but with nets to help prevent them from predators. that's essential to their survival not long ago elongated tortoises were upgraded to critically endangered on the international union for conservation of nature red list. misha meyerhoff is the a.c.c. these director he came here from germany more than 5 years ago to work on animal conservation projects especially ones involving birds and turtles. there are about $360.00 different species of turtle including the land tortoises what many people don't realize is that when the next red list is published about 60 percent of all turtles worldwide will be listed as threatened endangered or critically endangered there's a worldwide turtle crisis right now elongated tortoises are rarely sold in local markets anymore only one of the 14 turtle species in cambodia is not endangered

turtles are eaten in cambodia and used in traditional medicine live turtles are also sold as pets. in cambodia turtles and tortoises are believed to bring good fortune releasing one year a temple is believed to bring a long life just. but a lucky few turtles and tortoises end up at a.c.c. be like this one it was also released at a temple. carving inside of. you know. something. that. the team is about to operate on the turtle it has an injury inside its shell for the moment the animal gets a painkiller. next day ma and her colleague prepare food for the animals

600 turtles and tortoises live here all of them from endangered species breeding them in captivity has proven difficult but the elongated tortoises appear to need just fresh air and food the rest they can manage for themselves so far hasn't been able to release any elongated tortoises into the wild. it's too dangerous the animals would be captured again in short order. that's why michelle meyerhoff is hoping to bring the elongated tortoise here this woodland is home to the last 5 large siamese rosewood trees in all of southeast asia one tree can fetch more than 100000 your o's this patch of forest is under guard which could also offer protection to the tortoises. teary i was with him because we'd like to release the animals that are sexually mature into the wild the ones that are 5 or 6 years old will probably spend the next few years carrying out research to

answer various questions for example about their use of habitats then we hope to launch a pilot project with 20 or 30 tortoises that will tag with a transmitter and release into the wild so could we have. for now though the tortoises still need the shelter of the conservation center and they need mao who is tending to them. they like to come in even in camp they still have a good food even in camp yet plenty if they don't they like to play. perhaps this tortoise will be among the 1st released so that one day soon a new generation of elongated tortoises will be born in the wild. and there's a long road ahead to fully understand the effects of global warming some on so scientists are trying to find a lie at the bottom of the ocean a german driesell frequently organizes research cruises for stories while these

floating summer schools are helping ward and train ocean exports of the future. a floating university in the middle of the atlantic. on board are students and scientists from 23 countries the german research vessel dan is on a journey to study the condition of the planet's oceans and what kind of impact climate change is having on them. some of the students study aquatic bio science. marine biology. on the ship they're learning things like how to take samples from the depths. teacher us how sample. from the device but. we have no idea how to proceed. the probe is lowered to 5000 meters below the surface where it takes water samples

in the oceans cold water sinks to the bottom and stops mixing with upper layers the water they retrieve in last saw the surface hundreds of years ago that makes the samples very valuable for determining whether climate change is already having an effect far beneath the waves the aim of this research trip is to prepare the young scientists for climate research in their own countries the students learn things like how to calculate climate models how to determine air pollution based on the reflection of the ocean and how to analyze micro plastics polar research have pay to lead the on board seminar on climate models he says industrialized western countries have a special responsibility when it comes to climate protection. you know i wonder when you started causing climate change 150 years ago and or still doing it it's

not my admitting c o 2 and of course we have to do something to try to prevent it and we can only do that together teaching is such a joy because the younger generation has to and wants to know more about this. in the poll last stand labs the students' test the samples for oxygen and salinity and identify microorganisms all parameters influenced by higher temperatures in the past 50 years the ocean has warmed by 0.8 degrees celsius with no end in sight most of the students come from countries where climate change is being felt mohamed atta met hussein studies c. and lake science in belgium in his homeland kenya many regions are already too dry so along the coastline did a lot of soil erosion. there's also a lot of work talk of sea level rise so help people living close from the sea saw the homes mobile unit but at the same time look at sea surface temperatures are too

risky country where people come to me to see the beautiful corals and climate change kind of affects coral reefs in terms of bleaching. cheering their voyage together on their palash down the students have learned that climate change doesn't stop at borders and many have become fast friends they'd love to meet up again one day on the research ship next time as fully fledged climate researchers. there's a slow but steady shift in the world to bring back traditional knowledge in architecture construction methods and craftsmanship young artisans are now being reintroduced to local and natural materials and techniques much of which were bedded in the past with the advent of new technology. foundation gives these artists a better future and the world climate friendly it's. all.

about. you. know the man. for the left school after the 9th leap it didn't bode well for his future prospects you know but today he teaches students sustainable cup and. with my previous jobs i would work all day but never have a sense of achievement a feeling of pride in having i mean something there was no sense of purpose i was a deliberate and i had constant sense of disappointment today i'm a carpenter and the pastimes i'm skint after years training are to god because i can now make anything i must for. ruth anything. but here. are the other 3 were on particular you on.

my history now works as a trainer act. as skills odeon did residential school in in the western state of gujarat. carpenters from around the country up dreamed here and sustainable craftsmanship often bought from traditional indian wood work and construction. at the artisans live eat and study together for one year the school attracts dropouts from the formal education system. over the year they learn carpentry and me century alongside the skills needed to negotiate decent prices for their products.

technologies and materials that we use are inherently more eco friendly than processed material because there's no processing involved there's no. carbon dioxide being released by users. so there are 2 kinds of eco friendly. indicators 1st is while producing that material how much resources are abusing and how much i missions of carbon dioxide that is happening. the 2nd is a violin you've reduced our technology or the material or just the energy consumption of the building itself. the whole notion of foundation has helped build close $250000.00 homes and vogue with many disaster affected communities in india including in goods that are jammu and kashmir the heart and that british helping rebuild homes that are an environmentally friendly sustainable and disaster prove. to
