7:33 pm
been attacked and i would get an. awesome district. the lives of some of the largest populations of violation elephants and here they live mostly in the plantations monocultures and paddy fields around the town's. conflict with humans began to get serious around the 19th seventies when this district that used to be largely forest began to become organized the forest is now highly fragmented and largely replaced by human habitation as. well developments have blundered into the villages of. villages please be vigilant please be vigilant. the forest department must stay on their toes to keep elephants and humans out of conflict. every time. there are human. damages. i thought as a partner and as also
7:34 pm
a lot of pressure. so. under this pressure. and every time. there has been an influx of new. fields in plantations or truck elephants who are wide ranging species that migrate year round in search of places that will allow them to eat and breed exercises like relocation has largely failed in the past sometimes increasing the confidence humans. krishnan the spawn of a conservation organization that has been working in the area since 2015 to develop technology solutions. locus of elephants presence as a gentle way of ensuring no lives are lost on either side.
7:35 pm
in this study. in the last 10 years. and most of them more than 60. people know that they don't have any friends in that area and. probably if they had information these incidents could have been avoided. in 2017 and launched an early warning system the 1st efforts going in the region that covers $220.00 villages in hossam district. it is a free service for which locals can sign up by to just bring their mobile number with the organization. group meeting. separately this is a public service announcement why didn't fins have been sighted in the villages we
7:36 pm
recruit. to be vigilant at all times in anything that you know. and you wonder just to receive alerts in the local language governor about the possible location of the elephants as well as additional warnings and things look especially risky this is done through bulk s.m.s. is voice messages as well as a digital display bode's and. likes. because of these interventions. in the last one year. which has never happened in the history of. rapid response team suppose and.
7:37 pm
this group of 48 people are mostly locals who have been created by the forest to physically track the elephant herds so that there is constant and obviated information about the locations. this integrity the communication system has brought about a broader change to the relationship people and elephants shifted i would say the more remarkable change that i would see. they were. doing the day. i think it's. because they have.
7:38 pm
warning system has helped produced conflict in the hudson district but as more forest land is set aside for development the future of human elephants coexistence remains fragile. and the digitalisation of daily life is already responsible for so percent of the global carbon dioxide emissions every single source squarely on the internet consumes energy a company in burnley has decided to make search queries environmentally friendly when you use the platform the profits generated are the best to interview for the station programs farmers in the provision 6000 kilometers away are benefiting from this too. farming is a view of life here in the vested not a british legion but practically all of the forest have been felled to create this

aerial land. bunker hill from the village of the seine he also used to cut down trees so he could plant more crops. we used to have dense forests here it was completely green with lots of green but all that in a good minute deforestation that's the religious we're not planting 1st sacraments then they felt that we are being suffocated adam we're going against our environment and nature. now the g.i. bill is taking a new approach but the project for reforestation. this earthlings were donated by the sustainable green initiative to meet the needs of local farmers to end you chose fruit bearing truth despite them absorbing less carbon dioxide.
7:40 pm
in the initial stages when we started in 2002 and we were just planting regular trees what i would what we would call timber trees where i would your trees sometime in 2013 our elders told us hunger malnutrition. challenges and they convinced us that our shift should be towards trees because fruit trees can actually change many many lives fruits from these trees can be done for nutrition within the family extra fruits can be sold to create income. because here is a small company based in berlin that is funding the project in the way. the team here have set up their own internet search engine owning money from. 80 percent of their profits are invested in before the station projects in countries all around the world. google is the market leader in search engines we
7:41 pm
saw the need for an alternative player that's committed to using green electricity for its service and protecting the data users and instead of getting rich or paying our dividends profit should be used to give something back to the planet and to people who use those search engines and that's why we're using our money to plant trees for. the project in the back but the reason was the 1st of its kind in india for the german team they chose a reason due to the decline in biodiversity here over many years. the project involves planting 40000 real fruit trees. regular income is the equivalent of $700.00 euros a year as a farmer for him and other small scale farmers here the extra money from harvesting the fruit is most welcome. my role is to see that the plants are.
7:42 pm
not using any pesticide are going to. also look into the marketing so we get decent returns for these really are. each tree will generate some 12 euro's like this but by local farmers will get around 200 trees the plants will bear fruit publicly in 15 and 20 years. this will get plant 1000000 tree youth. by the british. are going to india. on an average around 80 percent of the saplings this project helps reduce poverty and protect the environment. the planet. has been declining alarmingly intrusive scientists are

7:44 pm
interactive media foundation company in berlin designed the installation they recreated 400 hectares of brazil's 2 mccormack national park in the amazon rain forest. it took over a year 7500 plants alone had to be drawn and programs the installation is now touring museums around the world. and with the knowledge 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. far. the project required extensive research the artists needed input from scientists they worked closely with
7:45 pm
biologists that berlin's natural history museum. biologist yano 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 and it's in the. 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
7:46 pm
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 game for scientists worldwide but also for visitors to the museum in space on the especially for school groups it's great to bring in this digital exhibit 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 mike flying with the harvey you go through the amazon in

virtual reality. a flock of birds creating fluid patterns against the expensive sky is. one of the creators phenomena of nature scientists cbus flocking mainly to protect themselves from birds of prey there might come a day soon. ultrafast coordination skills to program trolls better allow an artist to create a beautiful digitally manipulated photographs inspired by these ever creative patterns. images that resemble a tornado taken over the latter at a valley in catalonia. they serve a flock of airborne vultures that live south of the peyronie's. they were captured by spanish photographer charge. plaintiff in the 3rd i wasn't trying to take just ordinary pictures of vultures
7:48 pm
seen before you know i wanted to show another side of nature's beauty a beauty that's created by patterns of movement. in the form of fashion photography lives in barcelona he has devoted 18 years to his photo project titled only telegraphy from the greek word for birds and for writing. his 1st graph so world mind. is that there were 4 of these patterns of always being invisible to us. a perception is limited to the moments of somebody else we see here is a few seconds compressed into a single image as if you could see those seconds as a single moment. but so windows that's not possible except with this technology the former speaker poem was about. to create one image he meticulously cases hundreds of photos on top of one another. in rapid succession following the
7:49 pm
principle of the krona photograph the presses developed in the mid 19th century to study motion sequences. in 1878 english photographer edward my bridge used it to show that a galloping horse actually leaves the ground for a few milliseconds. individual beds can hardly be identified in charge of those images. look at the good that is going what's important is the pattern of motion. so people see a d.n.a. strand a wire a computer graphics and that's what interests me is that what do people see when they view an image like this for the 1st time. when there was a child the bird watching with his grandfather he's been fascinated with butts ever since and he doesn't have to travel far to find his my teeth he says can be found everywhere for example in this park in barcelona.
7:50 pm
momento right on their own or surrounded by birds that are making all kinds of different sounds. but we're always so wrapped up and ourselves that we don't notice that. they want to appeal to people's curiosity so they look up for a change listen and enjoy all this beauty even if you know if i was going out on their own in that if without the 3 f. or. without of high speed photography condenses time and makes the invisible visible. there are so many mysteries of nature that still need to be explored look at the all of ridley turtles for example they're known for their behavior of synchronized nesting in boss numbers females return to the scene where they hatched to leave their eggs one of these beaches is an only shop after discovering their whole of
7:51 pm
the marine ecosystem here the local fisherman are safeguarding the hatchlings day and night. well you haven't really thought tools like to leave the eggs at night. here on india's eastern coast there are masses of them. every year during hatching season locals from going love our village collect the eggs. they do this to protect the olive diddley's which i an endangered species. during nesting season the fishermen work day and night. we patrol the beach every night to recover the ailing the injured totals and recover the eggs we bring these eggs to artificial hatchery and put them in the holes before they hatch off to about $45.00 days. thereafter we put them back into the sea. every year hundreds of
7:52 pm
thousands of all of really totals arrive on the indian coast delayed the eggs. the event usually draws crowds of tourists but this year lockdown measures mean the beaches are quiet and as a result fewer eggs are being disturbed and the animals can get on with nesting in peace. for more than a decade the villagers have taken part in an initiative led by an organization called action for protection of wild animals the n.g.o.s set up in 1909 after the coast of or do show was devastated by a cycler. the organization works with the locals to help protect the environment the fishermen take care of the turtle eggs by placing them in protected nesting sites so they can hatched safely. well today we have seen 4 totaled laying eggs we have recovered $480.00 eggs from
7:53 pm
the nesting sites and believe that almost 80 or 85 percent of them will vote in to have. just one in a 1000 all of. many perish in fishermen's nets and climate change poses an additional threat. you cannot hold our climate as the sea turtles are affected by climate change in many ways the next thing we're generally used to happen in the month of february has now shifted to march. we were hit by cycling phony last year the floods excessive rains and high temperatures are also affecting the nesting. the warmer temperatures lead to a higher number of females and increased nest failures. protecting the eggs becomes all the more important. the villagers actually used to each them but once it became

clear how important overall the dawdled play in the marine environment they stopped . it dr who could be a total is also known as a fisherman's friend as they act like scavengers and eat carcasses you know what they are you going jellyfish a natural predator of small fish. if the number of totals decline there would be less fish to catch as the jellyfish will consume the other fish affecting the livelihood of the fisherman. going to be some bother to the. many local women are now contributing to environmental protection by collecting plastic waste from the beach. dawdled are less likely to breed on polluted beaches . did a video card he is showing them how to set up artificial hatching sites in the sun little. experience he asked reading awareness to establish a successful model of
7:55 pm
a community based on live really conservation. we train the locals to patrol so as to collect and relocate valuable eggs to the artificial. as they are released we protect them from stray dogs and poaching. cubbie reckons they've released around 260000 baby turtles into the sea over the last 10 years. they haven't been able to monitor them so it's unclear how many have survived or even returned. but they hope that the future years will bring as many eggs as this year. that's all we have for you today i hope this show has shown you that technology like everything else can be put to bad and good shoes it's the choice we make on how to use it that really matters we'll see you again next week until then stay safe take good care of yourselves and your loved ones good buy. it's.
