in the global corona traces you can find more information online f.t.w. dot com d.w. social media channels. welcome to global 3000. in colombia the indigenous me sank people have set up a school to protect their traditions and their natural environment. in india a village community plants $111.00 trees whenever a baby girl is born a custom that benefit society and the planet. but 1st to new zealand where sheep farmers are fed up with being blamed for climate change.

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 remains massive. in 2016 global greenhouse gas emissions total $51.00 gigatons 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 gigatons with devastating impact on the climate in new zealand.

she farmers are coming under increasing public and political pressure. sheep 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 side island. farmers have always been valued in new zealand are the backbone of the country's economy. families appreciate i should. say. nationals. but there's also a favorite. around the farming seemed to mount. climate change is shaking up this rural paradise sheep and cows are major producers of methane they generate one 3rd of all greenhouse gas emissions in new zealand suddenly farmers are seen as environmental centers 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 and friends that had a farm so most people probably spent holidays on farms. that much as. the includes new zealand center left governments in 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. farmers have become a political pawn says randall. in terms of. actually have been in opposition for norn years saunters have had actually run a country run a business strategy from strange. experience for me and so it sort of feel.

there's a lot of stuff and. the aspinall's farm is located near one of the main hiking trails in mind to spiralling national park it's a unesco world heritage site. i brought those wide allison sells ice cream of the spread so from a food truck here the family are trying to move into a better economic position. or learning about what. is right timing as coming there are more constraints environmentally and really just liason and things so i just looking at the ice to an alternative and common yeah this is just a really small stash to would say. i'm from the breath taking mountain regions of new zealand is a major export the government wants to cut meat and 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 c she use elance farmers are already producing in an ecologically sustainable way that would be hard to find anywhere else in the world. the ford says about a little but people not trying to run as reshape as i can write them and a bit more into call of duty is quite a bit more work on. ageing quality of the. them. i'll give. you a bit different 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 head. tears for the 2 children in even has

a waterfall with a natural pool this is how johnny and josh are growing up typical new zealand the next natural wonders never far away. this is nice and that it. just gives you time to thank them the joy and delight and i think little bit yet. so much to be around and you get away but like i used to every now and then but if you do just. that you see a day every now and then you say look around and are all ages it's a pretty cold life debate of loving and working and whopper they will very probably be up to get up and enjoy it. it's not all rolling she postures 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 me sack people who are determined to protect their 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 it's the most important place in the home. or placenta is cast into the fire after all. but at the ritual which joins us to the earth. 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. then our beliefs our language the entire culture will be lost it's

been said. nesta 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 circle the peds around to here they cultivate plants that back and rest is 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 that yes this helps us against the cold. this is a coal plant that's why when i use it to tackle a favor. and this is common 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 an acrostic the members of the association also want to pass on the 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. the group with my lot of one of my heart theatre 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 animal our plants and mood as best as. some of the children play music people fighting against environmental destruction.

and. you know you. look 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 remiss 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. an armadillo i'm going to kill it and sell it but i will. gradually all of the plants and animals are killed by the children who are playing the role of modern day individuals. 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 74 station. members with. a lot of communities are destroyed by transnational companies and also by the expansion of industrial agriculture. the land around them 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

calcutta valley still suffering from the fallout of the colombian conflict the decades long war between the government paramilitary groups and communist guerrillas fock drug cartels at the tension one 3rd of colombia is indigenous territory deadly violence is widespread in november 21000 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. 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 community space solidarity and cooperation between indigenous groups is crucial. because i was giving. you part that is you 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 but then we've got the general government check back in the mes act 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 act brings new seeds for plants and breathes new life into the animals. the people are given a 2nd chance this time the plants and animals have a message for humanity. just say look i'm

a condo or i'm the messenger of the sun king of the n.d. i dream of freedom please let me live. from i'm the woodpecker and if we birds die there will be no more bird song and no more joy anybody. gets a lamb i'm the butterfly and we want to spread our wings please don't clip. goes like i made an armadillo please don't kill me. this week we find our visit to our living room in kenya.

your welcome. home. this is my main area this is where i spent most of the time in. after they had they walk my t.v. it is the work of my hands and i really do that and i mean i love being with iraq that's why my house mostly black. my 1st bond movie my 2nd born andrew is that my bon journey my 4th one is. really grateful to god for.

interestingly with them they make me feel more stronger and stronger every day. this is bad. and the leg has so good she votes and part of our family and over that i'm in love with my. very very much i'm a little technician but i also do other thing with this. beauty trip and . i worked very hard 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 happy to overcome my game and that game. 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 pickaxe soso ranch but 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. it is was that a man when i was born my mother and father were very unhappy that i was a go today we're planting a tree 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 to. you maybe it is in there the audience would get a bit admittedly been the go a lot has changed in the village of people on tree thanks to shine on sunday polly 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 isn't fieri or as worthless children. he continued into adult it used to be that women weren't allowed to leave the house alone you had to hide behind a curtain 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 luxury is good fortune has entered our home now we deposit 150 euros into a savings account this 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 planned the trip to bali 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 talk. thing 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 a tree as a memorial and as a way of coping with my grief but i soon realized that one tree wasn't enough. if that's why we started this program $111.00 trees for each girl it has to be as many as that. this area had become a total waste land and now you can see the result. but 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 bloom 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 paul explains why it

often looks rather different in the rest of india. boys get an education and the girls often don't that's seen as a burden that's also why so many females are aborted killed right after they're born that's led to their 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's 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 cannot be. what they have been if you made him look good this is a look at it the trees give us wood and best fruit. we plant them because they're useful. now that things in a sense because our mothers planted them we see them as our brother. it's because

am i to buy what is only love and i'm go under 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. moving to the congo but inevitably. 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 that it would become such a big thing for with regard to people are coming here from everywhere. but many of them come to get ideas and they want to do the same thing. it's gone gold it's a great mix of them or 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 its daughter would certainly have been proud of her father. this week our worldwide 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 a breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains because it tends to be pretty cold for most of the year but swastika feeders a small restaurant where you can warm up and enjoy the local speciality soup in a bread bowl. tiësto this perfect place for this we call this like yesterday it was raining apples to cool soofi now was cold so. you're also
