the corona outbreak has reduced travel and industrial production and resulted in a dip in carbon emissions so in that sense it's actually improving the health of the planet but the environmental impact of animal agriculture for example from a massive. in 2016 global greenhouse gas emissions totaled $51.00 peaker tonnes of which more than 7 gigatons were caused by meat and dairy companies. to meet the targets set by the paris climate agreement global greenhouse gas emissions have to be reduced to 13 gigatons by 2050 but if the meat and dairy industry continues down its current path its annual emissions are expected to exceed 10.5 times with devastating impact on the climate in new zealand.

sheep farmers are coming under increasing public and political pressure. as far as the eye can see and what looks like boundless freedom for randall aspinall he's the 4th generation of sheep farmers a new zealand south island. farmers have always been valued in new zealand are the backbone of the country's economy. farmers appreciate it should. see it as being part of a national audience a. favor chatter around. seem to mount. climate change is shaking up this rural paradise sheep and cows are major producers of meeting they generate one 3rd of all greenhouse gas emissions in new zealand suddenly farmers are seen as environmental sinners randall can see growing misunderstanding between people in the city and in the country. as most people in

the cities knew had cousins had a farm had friends that had a farm so most people probably spent holidays on farms. as. the includes new zealand center left government and this for example sheep and cows wading through rivers and possibly fouling the water doesn't fit with new zealand's clean image so many farmers now have to build fences along the waterways on their property. which farmers have become a political pawn says randall. in terms of. how they actually have been in opposition for more news centers of how they actually run a country and actually run a business strategy from chinese. experience for me and so it sort of feels right. there's

a lot of stuff when. the aspinall's farm is located near one of the main hiking trails in mantra spiraling national park it's a unesco world heritage site. i promise wife allison sells ice cream of this press so from a food truck here the family are trying to move into a better economic position. or one of the. right timing as the coming there are more constraints environmentally and really just like things so i just looking at the ice to an alternative and common. this is just a really small stash towards the. from the breathtaking mountain regions of new zealand as a major export the government wants to cut retain emissions from livestock by 10 percent by 2030 otherwise farmers will face penalties but how is this supposed to

happen randall asks a c d y m says she use elance farmers are already producing in an ecologically sustainable way that would be hard to find anywhere else in the world. the fortress is gone for about a little what people know is really shaky as i tend to like them and a bit more into call of the year is quite a bit more work on. ageing quality of the paula. i'll give. you people just want to be a bit more and some of them born into stuff and from the wealthy stuff and we just want to provide. them with the system on a beautiful day. for the market. this afternoon the aspinall's are taking a break from the sheep the family including grandma are having a day out on their own farm this is a playground of over 2000 hectares. as for the 2 children even has

a waterfall with a natural pool this is how johnny and josh are growing up typical in new zealand the next natural wonders never far away. this is not saying that shit. just give you time to thank and just enjoy life and i think little bit yeah. it's going to be around all mine you get a waiver from my boss i used to every now and then but if you do just. that you see a day every now mean used to look around and all of that's a pretty cool place to be living and working and we're operating well below probably the opposite of good absolute joy. it's not all rolling sheep pastures and games of frisbee in the natural pool. for this new zealand farming family there are many new challenges but with views like this everyone can see why they choose this life.

and in our global ideas series we go to the andes in south america in colombia our reporter culture dinner met the indigenous music people who are determined to protect that cultural identity and their tradition of nature conservation. when the knees act indigenous people have important matters to discuss they always sit by the fire. as 27 year old nestore explains is the most important place in the home. placenta is cast into the fire after our birth. but at the ritual which joins us to the earth. so you know we're going to leave you all leave for the cities rather than staying here to be no one who protects this area. and then our beliefs our language the entire me suck cult. sure will be lost

. still wants to do something to prevent that together with his friends from the village he's a member of the associates. that's an association designed to keep local cultural traditions alive. everything in the garden is planted in. the beds around to here they cultivate plants that their ancestors also used aloe vera and many others every plant here has its own special purpose. when women are menstruating we take the seeds and through. this helps us against the cold. this is a coal plant that's why i use it to tackle a favor. and this is kind of it helps her stomach aches we also make an on it meant

to treat arthritis for example but. the medicinal use of cannabis which is being legalized in more and more countries has a long tradition among the muzak people though they don't use it as a narcotic the members of the association also want to pass on their botanical knowledge to children in the village to teach the younger generation what properties the plants have and why it's important for the means act to cultivate them themselves. it will put doubtlessly on my lot of one of my our theater group is called the magical tree and their play is about how we're destroying our environment over then you know it's about how important it is to protect our animals our plants and mood this land does this mean. some of the children play means that people

fighting against environmental destruction. and. you know. here you can see some symbols this is a belt symbol it stands for the moon and here is the spiral it stands for the pop that re misako tread. that. the group was set up about 15 years ago. in the past nestore used to perform himself but now he directs the children. then is of course an armadillo i'm going to kill it and selfish but it. gradually all of the plants and animals are killed by the children who are playing the role of modern day individuals right down there.

afterwards the association members meet in the communities heart they come together on a regular basis to sit around the fire and talk about old traditions but also about new developments in the community. that means that manage 70 heads of land a vast area most of it is beyond the settlement and consists of pristine jungle they are determined to prevent deforestation. with. a lot of communities are destroyed by transnational companies also the expansion of industrial agriculture. and. the land around the means that community has already been cleared nature has been devastated by large scale cattle

farming and also by gold silver and coal mining. many indigenous communities in the kalka valley a still suffering from the fallout of the colombian conflict the decades long war between the government paramilitary groups and communist guerrillas fock drug cartels add to the tension one 3rd of colombia is indigenous territory deadly violence is widespread in november 2900 there were 19 homicides in one week alone. those. leaders have been murdered there are threats you are using violence to hound people out of their communities. a school in the region of and below. in a condo is visiting as a representative of the autonomous indigenous university. it brings together students from various ethnic groups to bolster their cultures

and join forces to improve their communities learning takes place in small groups. the seminar participants discuss what they can do to tackle the threats that communities face solidarity and cooperation between the indigenous groups is crucial. was that. we could put them see how can we make our community a stronger so that we can't be forced out if we don't have a strategy we'll lose everything and that'll be it. back in the music territory at the moment the situation is calm but while the threat posed by armed groups has receded environmental destruction is a growing problem. the children's play is almost over. and it has a happy end and means akbar in this new seeds for plants and breeds new life into

the animals. the people are given a 2nd chance this time the plants and animals have a message for humanity. just like any crime the contour of the messenger of the sun king of the end i dream of freedom at least let me live. on the i'm the woodpecker if we birds die there will be no more bird song and no more joy if he. gets a lamb i'm the butterfly we want to spread our wings please don't clip them and. he goes like i made an armadillo please don't kill me. this week we pay our visit to a living room in kenya. we

went around. and. this is my main area this is where i spent most of the time in after walk after they had they walk my t.v. it does their work with my hands and i read it and i mean i love beads black that's why in my house mostly to block. my fastball maybe my 2nd born andrew is that my

backbone jeremy my 4th one say i'm really grateful to god for. interestingly with them they make me feel more stronger and stronger every day. this is that me. and me lead has so good she is also part of our family and. that i'm in love with my table very very much i'm a little technician but i also do other services in beauty industry and . i work to be had to get it that i treasure it very hand it is one of the most

expensive that i have been this fit in the room. bye bye thank you for visiting me i'm. going to come again and again. this is like your home. in india women are responsible for the family and household and play key roles in education and farming but families still value sons over daughters and sex selective abortions of widespread the result there is a gender imbalance the country is missing 16000000 women one village is bucking the trend. a grandmother wields a pick axe. so so ranch put is planting the 1st tree for her baby granddaughter all

of the families here follow the same ritual there are $111.00 trees for each newborn girl. when i was born my mother and father were very unhappy that i was a goal today we're planting trees because we're happy when i got one if my parents had experienced this and i'm sure they would have been proud of me too. maybe it isn't me or the audience i get a bit of maybe even the go a lot has changed in the village of people on tree thanks to shams under polly while he came up with the tree planting idea 13 years ago back then and he was mayor today when proud parents introduce him to their newborn girl he can barely believe that things haven't always been like this but 13 years ago girls were still regarded as inferior as worthless children before he continued into adult get used to be that women weren't allowed to leave the house alone you had to hide

behind the curtains that was a man's doing they were afraid something would happen to the women but this is changed dramatically. and it's not just thanks to the trees now parents pledge to not marry off their daughters before their 18th birthday. they're also required to educate their daughters in return the village community opens a savings account for each girl. when my granddaughter was born it was if the goddess luck shmooze good fortune has entered our home now we deposit 150 euros into a savings account and she on sunday or gives us twice that amount with this the little one can later pay for her education of course we also plant the tree as to buy was an. idea for the trees and the education fund has a very personal motive 13 years ago his own daughter died he doesn't like talking about the exact circumstances afterwards the businessman fell into

a deep depression he thought a lot about how girls in india are often harassed and disadvantaged he had a monument put up in his daughter's honor but it wasn't enough he wanted to do something more. then i planted the tree as a memorial and as a way of coping with my grief i soon realised that one tree wasn't enough. that's why we started this program $111.00 trees for each girl it has to be as many as. this area had become a total waste and now you can see the result. but i've you know the region around people on tree is full of marble quarries this is how it used to look 13 years and 350000 new trees later a dense forest now surrounds the village it's a blessing for the microclimate and the hot summer and the village of 5000 is now more prosperous because the forest is cultivated local see the boom is directly

connected to the support for the girls things are changing now there are just as many girls as boys in the classroom 10th grader come on polly explains why it often looks rather different in the rest of india. that the boys get an education often don't. that's seen as a burden that's also why so many females are aborted killed right after that born that's led to that being fall fewer go than boy. 13 years ago mother was one of the 1st people to plant trees for her daughter even though it was already 2 years old at the time her mother wanted to take part when komal goes into the woods today she knows that some of the trees bear her name. it's a great feeling when they come out but. what benefit i'm coming to that good is a look at it the trees give us wood and bear fruit. we plant them because they're

useful. now that thing in a sense because our mothers planted them we see them as a brother. is bogus am i to buy a way is going to let them go she is now famous in india politicians and entire university classes come to him to hear how he succeeded in improving living conditions for the girls and the entire village but the many trees and with little money. the comfortable but i. since he appeared as a guest in a celebrity special on india's version of who wants to be a millionaire the whole country knows him so. it's not going to be any sort of argue i never would have thought it would become such a big league where we've got people are coming here from everywhere. but many all of them come to get ideas are gone they want to do the same thing. it's gone it's

right next up in the order of the little guy getting it from men and they thought. when it all gets to be too much for him he withdraws to the forest this is the tree that started it all the tree that he planted for his deceased daughter. she says that at least her death had a positive effect his daughter would certainly have been proud of her father. this week our search for tasty snacks takes us to iceland. the icelandic landscapes are spectacular and you don't even have to leave town to enjoy them even from the center of reykjavik. there are breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains because it tends to be pretty cold for most of the year but start a coffee there's a small restaurant where you can warm up and enjoy the local speciality soup in a bread bowl. tiësto this

a perfect place for this we called it like yesterday it was raining it was too cool soofi now was cold so we're. here also a few days after the ship's name is unpronounceable for anyone who doesn't speak icelandic servery one calls him sick to his restaurant is a small family business the 1st opened in 2003 with the same concept it still has today. we have 2 kinds of soup we always say as in there's always one with tea and one meat so for today we have a marshal soup as a both of them a cream based sauce over for all the wonders of hunger he needs to make you hungry and his life more like a proper curfew on unit and next best of all freshly made every morning soups are served in a bowl made of bread. in his sleeve you know. he is our choice because he is also going to have it hard so the soup doesn't you know

i'll tell you to stop if you get home safe. yeah. right. now the soup was unsafe fixed costs around 14 euro's fairly cheap fi icelandic standards and one reason why this little cafe is so popular with both locals and visitors. secu serves about 600 soups a day in winter the weekends get very busy you can see the faces of people who are you need to slag me to do it and then makes me happy that's you know one of the reason i'm. studer ok the below a.
