europeans regularly feel lonely about 7 percent of the overall population. in japan too many people live in total isolation for years even decades. tokyo a vibrant mega city home to 15000000 people but some tokyo residents find it a challenging place to live they say it's too busy too noisy so they simply don't leave their homes sometimes for a few months sometimes for decades. aga turkey is one of these modern day hermits he hardly ever leaves his room he decided to become a recluse 15 years ago. i was learning french at the time the teacher would always ask us what we've done that will look. i didn't have a job so i never did anything to say i couldn't have a conversation and so i retreated more and more from the world. this remarkable.

morrie often suffer as much as they do they often feel a strong sense of shame publicly admitting that their child has no job and no friends would be humiliating so they keep quiet often hiding them from their neighbors for example in this way they're complicit in maintaining their child's isolation it's a problem that set to become even more acute in the coming year. in japan we talk about the 8050 problem. when the parents are 83rd children or 50. and the older the parents get the harder it is for them to look after their children. traditionally japanese culture emphasised conformity for people who feel different staying within their own 4 walls can seem like a safe option but this self-imposed exile can become impossible to escape now aged 14 or guitar he wonders if he'll be able to reenter society. quite.

4:39 pm
to plant up the whole of the valley with crops eating your mess in the they dug drainage ditches everywhere. then the project was over. but not long after they left we realized the problem still wasn't solved the water just came back with saddam. the adaptation fund is a united nations initiative that anxious to help developing countries cope with climate change rwanda has a high percentage of fertile volcanic soil that means even the high mountain slopes can be used to barrel farming the problem is heavy rain washes the soil down into the valley the solution is to build terraces into the slopes following the example of the incas in south america. for we knew about building terraces the soil on the slopes just used to get washed into the valley. there was no point in using the newer fertilizer. but now whatever we use stays where it's meant to be so the crops
4:40 pm
on the terraces are growing faster and we have better harvest. now all the mountain villages here have built terraces it's a time consuming process the steps in the slope need to be at least 5 metres deep once complete the ground then needs to rest for 3 months sometimes there are unexpected obstacles farmers have stumbled across on mt graves left from the genocide in 1904 which killed around a 1000000 people. we found bodies under this field of people killed during the genocide. so we didn't get any further there used to be a house here presumably there was a massacre and they just dumped all the bodies under there we don't dig terraces in
