no one asks help me or doing. a quick. i need to stop there's something wrong. do social networks have any social responsibility at all. the cleaners social media's shadow industry starts june 18th on g.w. . a very warm welcome zico africa big environment magazine co-produced by charles to be here nigeria detail being germany and t.v. in uganda my name is and they'll try co-hosting the program from the other side of the cup didn't even my dear colleagues on the low side of the. thank you near 10 on the album welcome to you all of us i think people are doing this today i am

somebody nokia from kampala here in uganda well here's a quick look at some of the stories we'll be looking out for today. we will show you how random ease of political slanting and harvest most is by putting off sources we will also see who counted syria is supplying schools and green energy state using the solar energy to plant how one man in a slum in kenya east of breaking up the fall of what took the toes. we start the show in south africa where a very special body is a tree is the southern brown one bill also known locally as the front of bot because of its belief that its cry signals the coming of summer rain the species can be found in grasslands from kenya and if it all the way down to south africa however humans are driving the bus into decline well its goals of vision is are now pulling out all the stops to save these much loved iconic in the tons. of good

there. even when fitted with tracking devices some amorphous can be hard to find. lucy kemp going to do through that she's trying to look at certain ground 100 bills large could never as bad as found in sub-saharan africa. in hunting have left the species vulnerable to meet and that their numbers in south africa how fall into under 1500 the population is definitely still declining over the last couple of years we've been developing conservation tools but they've still been in the experimental phase and you know always sort of trying to expand it so it makes a really meaningful difference to the population over the past 20 years the my bull a grand one bill product has worked on developing various techniques and preserve the wild habitat. mounted on a tall poor will eventually provide

a live stream folklores i'm wondering one of the biggest threats is loss of of mysteries it's really got 100 square kilometers if they lose they missed it can take up to 20 years before they reflect refined replacement so what we've been doing is putting out these what we call super miss artificial masts and then also we need to actually protect the ministry's from elephant impact and the elephant may come along and want to knock the street dumb which means we'd lose the mist but the beehives protect them and keep the elephants away because they really don't want to get stung by the bees. a few hours further east there's a center that the kid exclusively through reading something grand on bills. tends to the. feel that judges in the wild something grown one bill late 2 eggs but only raise one cheek abandoning the one but i just 2nd. the rejected and 100 as them.

when this project started i mean years ago the success rate of hankering was big and with time the race has been perfected and now most of the chicks actually survive and were able to supplement the program i feel that hand-wringing is really important to the conservation of the species because this allows us. 3rd class stock that we wouldn't have otherwise and this helps us both the population in areas where they no longer could but he starkly used to. 100 is complex and time intensive care must be taken to ensure the bugs don't become tame that's why the team also has another more natural method of raising chicks. has just received an egg that was found in the wild using a method called kundalini she determines that the biggest fight tile before placing it in a nest in one of the. so

even though our facility is well equipped for hand-wringing we prefer to actually give to our one of our breeding see a mouse such as the one behind me and hopefully she will being natural incubator as opposed to trying to artificially incubate the egg and when it had to she can then parent or it which is 1st prize for birth that we would like to release back into the wild which is the actual objective of this thing. is just one step the put it conservationists or 2nd act educational outreach programs across the country. these children have never seen a man. today. sharing some interesting facts about the but also. gives the kids ideas of what they can do to help save god these rare creatures we get quite a range of people. we started with a lot of the young kids in the baby they say or.

bend. and that's what we're trying to educate them while they still young and they love and appreciate. both as well so when they are older they can teach their own kids having made significant strides in south africa the ground one of the product would like to collaborate with similar enterprises in the countries so they can preserve. grasslands and ensure that it never disappears. what. good luck now for this week's doing it comes from. that's right sandra has devised. a mix. fit for human use by topping nature's

resources this. clean drinking water is hard to come by in many parts of the world. and consuming contaminated water can lead to illness or even death. waiver an innovative product developed by a german company in floater could provide a solution it's a water purification system that has a triple filter and can be anchored in a river or a stream. one unit can produce up to 2000 liters of safe drinking water a day the clean water can be pumped to a holding tank on land give you a little we made a conscious decision to use only standard parts available across the world with standard sizes if say a pipe is damaged or missing you'll be able to get a replacement wherever you are including africa that's called. the system is

powered by the river current and needs little maintenance making it suitable for remote areas without a power supply. waiver currently costs around $15000.00 euros but the company hopes to make it cheaper when it goes into mass production. martin davies is now also working on a person that can be used to purify standing water. 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 bit. we share your stories. education is key not just in the classroom but also in the field like what's behind me and sometimes people wonder if the students really learned all that they need to learn for

a better future from the schools in the can build innovative huge as well there is an elementary school not too far from where we are today on the outskirts of lagos in liking to be precise where the children learn some very important lessons about everything including when you will energy they say 1st time the advantages of solar power because a school generates its own and that's all. living in the southeast and what these kids have lots of ideas about what can be done to combat climate change burn fuel for still feels ride a bicycle use solar power discussions of this nature are giving high priority at the school who want our children to problem solve most who want them to be people able to move and the environment and not do things where you know we school principal because the is leading by example she runs the abbotts heart school the private elementary institution not far from lagos the principal has had solar

panels installed on the roof of the building. time well such that we have. already done that for a lot and they'll. each of them return i couldn't afford to buy right. the. supply and be viewed in. an r.v. the iffy the dust the air conditioning the lights in. the barn i'm without in order classroom. but getting to this point wasn't. a sizable investment required but the school was only able to get a bank loan so part of that money. to at some make it up with our own person now the nancy's and the school finances so. we have issued by challenge of financing and we also have a challenge all from get same route mom power you know trained to manage our

own will understand the setting up of the projects the automation parts of the project and then the main demands also. the students of land that everyone can do their parts to ease the burden on the environment. instead of going in for sue for music are news in your book any sources. like sun up i will snuff on those wind energy and had you to mention tried our best to save the planet like the car took some danes we felt he was in the. choir my friend he says he only retards for only 2 days the rest of the day suso upon this i think that was all humans should try to do on days where there is little direct sun the abbotts hard school is dependent on reserve solar energy stored in batteries it then has to

limit the use of electricity they will turn down the air conditioning or ton of some of the lights but by generating its own clean energy the school is saving money and producing electricity without producing harmful c o 2 emissions we are way behind in nigeria in. bringing up creative and innovative ideas so protecting our environment from protecting the future of the nation one of the greatest lessons we have to teach our children in this day and age is how to make them better mentally better and safer place the example set by the school is teaching the students the importance of protecting the environment a very practical way the hope is that they will now share the a new insights with us. nature's energy can be used to help us as we have seen in that nigerian school but its paws can also be

destructive and rwanda heavy rains often make farmers lives a misery leading to flooding and erosion streets are submerged villages are cut up an entire harvests are lost and climate change is making things worse now in the north of the country a co-operative is taking measures to reduce the effects of flooding in this hilly country. you know how all the families if they could team you co-operative distraught what looks like a lake is actually potato in cornfields everything's under water the harvest is lost and that shouldn't have happened measures had been taken to protect the valley against floods. first of all a project manager from the adaptation fund came to see us this and fog than other people came to prepare the construction we're going to get an idea of the terrain. so. once they were finished with their work we were finally able to plant up the whole of the valley with crops eating your muslin though 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. the adaptation fund is a united nations initiative that aims to help developing countries cope with climate change. has a high percentage of 1st salvo cannick soil and that means even the high mountain slopes can be used. 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 income and south america. we knew about building terraces most soil on the slopes just used to get washed into the valley. there was no point in using the newer fertiliser. but now whatever we use stays where it's meant to be. the crops

on the terraces are growing faster and we have better harvest. is the cabbage green village it's one of many so-called green villages in rwanda that are helping to promote sustainable development the houses here are designated for victims of the floods each family is given a plot of land to farm. i've planted potatoes beans and corn on my land. i've also specialized in leafy vegetables. there especially good for the children to ensure they get a balanced diet plus charge and spinach sell for a particularly good price. the profit to his selling his fruits and vegetables has allowed him to build up a flock of sheep again. he now has a few chickens to. members of the.

all. hard at work. anyone capable of holding a shovel is out in the fields doing that bit the hope is that if enough mud can be moved out of the way the water will drain off. the women dig out the big stones and then carry them to one of the many small water channels. the stones are being used to build dams designed to filter the water and prevent further months. finally there's relief all round as the water starts to drain away. still it's too late to save the harvest. and while the situation has been improved and now what the farmers really need is a more permanent solution. let's get back to you more and more europeans are beginning to question the heavy consumerist lifestyles mosse protest against

climate change and in favor of sustainable farming combine i'm more and more people are seeking to change that when you do the hard drive yes i mean it's a even more something country sustainable if you want to see the buying of the land item rather than a new product in britain the reason more that he's dedicated to 2nd on items the clones got it's not even funny and the sides love it just last year the most made $1100000.00 euros in filth and something many items for ending up in not fields tickled. welcome to the world's most sustainable shopping mall. and everything on sale is secondhand which means the items are more affordable limp around new ones almost every article is one of a kind. i love that kind of book whiskey you can find things to the

doors not that not everybody has something special something unique recycling we like recycling we don't want to buy new clothes new things. with. the electronics shop like everything that has computers televisions and maple phones at our nation's. 3 to no shopping mall in the swedish town of a school tonight is located next to a recycling center. people bring unwanted items of all kinds here anything that can be used overhead goes to the mall. or. everyone who comes here they have an object if they come here to see. very vironment and help others to make some money like the rich want to hear through the retail it won't work with all this would all be understanding or like responsibility. every day brings

a new find. this is something my colleague would have a look at. in the workshop the team brings defective electronics like this television back to life. of the syrian born shop manager because work is about more than just earning money. we have a responsibility toward this environment so if you're poor so it's not good for my kids my grandsons and the future. to reach you know a shopping mall has 14 shops each one specializes in different kinds of 2nd time goods like fun books. sustainability is a major topic here more and more sweets want to know where and how the products they use and consume woman eat but most consumers have still prefer new products to used ones. one of the main focuses in trying to reduce the climate impact is

to reduce the level of production i thought getting things to sort of be reuse to. being put into recycling process where they you also need fossil fuels. to produce new things alex returning to teach is one of the many workshops organized by the more participants learn upcycling techniques and how to use various waste materials they can also learn about production conditions in other countries and how to consume more sustainably. even if we're apart in a consumer culture or. what we consume also makes a huge difference and what impact it has on the environment dumping a few hours later in. the electronic shop the donated television is ready to go on sale. tomorrow hopes that the idea behind 3 to no shopping mall will catch on everywhere and cause model problems of the awareness the will you

need to know about the work of everyone and as i said i hope that it will spread all over europe the war and when that happens more and more people will start to appreciate the value in things that have been used before. while choosing 2nd 100 goods is a cautious choice in a rich country like sweden. one of africa's biggest informal settlements on the edge of nairobi it is often the only option even getting clean water can be a struggle for years gangs have had a monopoly on the water supply that meant that only the people paid the gang bosses got water and even that was of dubious quality but the efforts of one man wrecking their clout on this precious resource. oh.

this is kibera slum in nairobi pipes with fresh water run through sewer tunnels for a long time residents have been suffering under these and i geni conditions but there is hope now a connection of blue pipes run above the slums shanties they provide residents with clean and hugh porter all thanks to kennedy or did. growing up in this community it was a tough life of all what i was was i remember looking to connect. to go and fetch water you know cutting it on my shoulder having grown up in kibera an experience the effects of unsafe or to face hands kennedy or did they founded the n g o short but he would soon face fierce opposition from the so-called water cattails . idea of water also the beautiful to me it was a little bit dangerous at the same time because people who makes a lot of money because the very powerful powerful men in this community

the cartels run their own want to sustain selling of uprising and i genie quarter my dream was to bring clean affordable water to the community. but my pipes were cut to pieces. although he was afraid of the cartels kennedy decided to approach monday of back then he was a gang member and leader of the water mafia were talked a little bit and then after the public want to play you he really quit a really small amount of money or not that's how it started and nobody ever touched the water. for monday it was an easy decision to switch sides and went for the ngo instead of a cartel. but now he's happy with his new job. i feel very proud. because i'm doing what i said due to the community reaching

out to former gang members like mandela who was the key to making this community service work the price of war to reduce to one 5th of the former price and the quality is better to ensure the water meets the safety standards kennedy installed a water purifying system is the only one in the kibera slum. the water come from the water while it's power to the row water tank our side which is 24000 liters comes in to be now to be treated so now the water is no drinking book and then we pump it now to the big attack from here the water is then distributed so this is our clean water or a drink of to show you that. is clean. tested good. that is sometimes i feel because well treated water. kennedy

truly inboard is the spirit of the saying what is life he and his employees i helping the beloved community one drop at a time. it is pretty impressive what one month can achieve he's a real hero with us all from africa for now with more amazing environmental stories from across africa and europe it is a good bye for me from kampala here in uganda. thank you sandra and goodbye for me to see you next time for more stories on information you can visit our web page and also show media channels drop us a word and please contact us with any comments all the feedback you might have so long from the fossil balkan lagos nigeria.
