the government owns much of the land but has been reluctant to provide basic services such as sanitation of waste management so residents are taking things into their own hands. or guiding principle is quite simple you have to build with the programs in the communities fast cause all the folly before they need to do this all the human waste comes from the community nor of upolu to itself. the clean up work is mostly being done by local young people their main focus is removing west from him and out on the roof he biro generates around 200 tons of trash probably. a nanny for asia i am happy because it's clean and like before when one couldn't even stop and rest by the side of there never got back on brady was after clearing the snow but. they couldn't get near here before but now you can because it's clean and you can rest or even. get away there. after the garbage is removed

collect data on the pollution levels the street was remodeled in partnership with you inhabited. so our main motivation was can we use this as an entry point into a brand regeneration into a bun transformation can you make it a place where people want to be can we transform can we revolutionized have. one ambitious project aims to do just that tattoo city is an urban development in the north of nairobi with housing schools offices green areas and manufacturing districts it hopes to ease the burden on the crowded capito. such a city is mixed use mixed income development and so will have residential properties available for different levels of income so we'll have a lot of affordable housing middle income as well as a high end developments the 1st 48 affordable apartment units completed solar

city dwellers the chance to get close to nature once again. if you don't use your own you can over time i realized that i missed nature and that i needed to reconnect with it. actually just the events why i decided to leave everything you know but my job to give up my apartment and experience reconnecting with nature in places like this interrogate humanities did you see i was some time in. the at this valley in the south of france this is where the association ted human easement has set up a model enterprise for agro ecology on a form live in yet the garden is where workshop participants learn about how to apply green principles to agricultural processes the idea is to move away from industrial agriculture and towards natural cycles.

we realize that plants are like us need a healthy environment they need to do well in the soil and then and there and if that's not the case they want to belive as well we're being productive don't if you're karimov the family a bit like human beings so there's a very close connection between us and plants. as a neighboring plot the soil has been exhausted but also official 1st eliza's their own garden is being 1st realized with compost and plant mixtures. it is to improve this structure so that nutrients are more available to plants so that the soil retains more water and is less depleted a source of the challenge of what seems to do this if. there are lots of microorganisms we can see the earthworms in it there are lots of little routes this is roughly the objective of the agro ecology that we promote more of

a culture to get these kind of soil. to the bone you know to do sort of what is the opposite of what we saw on the other plot you know where you couldn't even push the shovel in a few centimeters had to hit very hard. for the new takes on established thinking person is regarded as a very fast spreading and persisted weed but the plant tastes good and is easy to digest the workshop leader even says that person could be a substitute for fish since it contains nutritionally valuable i'll make a 3 fatty acids. here this afternoon we talked about plants medicinal plants all the issues with things like what to watch out for when you start or when she become more of an expert do with them how they can be used and how they benefit us. the group now know more about plants and have come a bit closer to nature on an old vineyard which sets

a fine example of sustainable land reuse. now let's head to the shores of lake victoria here in uganda residents are repeatedly opt-out and injured by 9 crocodiles the reportorial come out significant families and along the death each water and fishermen complaining about broken legs little donkey walks with a gun to wildlife authority to capture and really look at the crocodiles in his career perience to crocodile culture has captured more than 190 crocodiles impressive isn't it. the fear some site over a mile crocodile the largest species of d.n.a. in africa while tourists cruise the nile hoping to see the imposing reptiles from the safety of a board along the shores of lake victoria the 4 rushes predictors pause a deadly threat to people living in the area drilling fish stalks and shrinking

crocodile habited have led to a worrisome rise in attacks in recent times many victims are children who go down to the lake to play or fetch water fisherman are also a target peter is a crocodile expert with the uganda wildlife will for 80 he and his team have come in response to reports of a sighting they ask the villagers for further details before setting off to search for the animal when we receive information with quickly rushed to this. form with armed with a couple of. locals the lead the team to the areas favored by the large reptiles. they really are trapped made from a piece of meat attached to wire. or not for the die so that the word of god i love comes in the grabs the baby. and then the wire will die

the lord your order by your when it is right. there wired by jesus but in this instance the crocodile squad needs to adjust the trap the predator smells a rat and escapes. in one village the crocodile hunters have more luck fisherman have captured a crocodile themselves or gone steam is here to take it away safely safe not just for the people but the crocodile too. after a 7 hour drive the team arrives at the crocodile farm on the outskirts of kampala and the animal is released the facility was set up by the uganda wildlife or $3000.00 partnership with the private investor. this one has reportedly killed 7 people the predator permanently lives in captivity now since its judged to

dangerous behavior. visitors pay to see the creatures which helps finance the farm that ensures aggressive crocodiles a safe haven some of their offspring will be returned to nature but the program was set up for several reasons $1.00 to breed them we want them to lay eggs and then we later incorporated the eggs and then we created the young one which will do for one reason pop was for educational purposes and for such a uganda where level 3 t. puts the country's crocodile population at about $1200.00 most of them are now living freely in national parks in uganda. you can always count on the most to do the trick if you want to generate strong feelings and

people the wildlife fund when they were money and sex and thought about that and came up with a competing for protecting the country they have population it is called bass leagues you know not to the well known to get a feel stream platform and it walks in very much the same way he is doing good deeds this week. there flexes turning binge watchers into their watchers it's a new streaming service for wildlife fans launched by the w w f romania. subscriptions to the site help support orphaned bear cubs in romania the country is home to around 7000 bears but animal welfare activists say the largest bear population in europe is under threat. more and more carbs being the point that one day

seriously check out this. keeping bees and working as a d.j. are normally activities that most people would see as related in any way but not to be and he said his music comes from the buzzing of bees produces cool beats with it and has a message for his listeners as being harassed of loss of a set during the time i was trying to make a performer some audio piece a state cracker jack bass 6 weeks of silence people connect it's a great trip through things it's. the only sense of studied art and design and the japanese experimental music while he was still a student he calls it insect tech. c uses a special software to isolate the different frequencies of the bees

a minute. there are 3 types of being a high this is the queen group is the draw it's only charge of their own frequency right. so the crane has a high pitch piping sound high workers economy midrange sound drunk by all being asked to produce paintings so. he uses a scanner to record the sounds made by the police the frame he built is fitted with microphone use and a digital recorder which can capture hours of buzzing in libya a high of. being nice always tinkering with new instruments for his music. once he's filled the recorders memory and the london park bearly sept takes it home to his studio he analyzes the bee sounds and arranges them through various synthesizers to create a track and when you put sounds all of this they become carnival lastic community

crew. the interface for this synthesizer is to be flying into the flour. be any samples taken his sound installations all over the well it. always takes to the stage in a beekeeper suit he wants to remain anonymous he wants the listeners to concentrate solely on the music. but this year his performance as a concert. during lockdown i've looked really being able to come here to my being is just meditate. you know regardless of the pandemic in lockdown i receive the bees just carry on as normal. and that she that happy that it is

not as much pollution. this year. defense bees are happy being any semblance to his sounds or hate especially with young audiences at the same time they raise awareness of the world wide decline of people p. nations. what a strange idea and after us report from kenya we saw how illegal waste dumps can be dealt with but south africa is approaching the problem of thoughtless waste dumping in a much more radical fashion lots of towns and communities have been declaring war on waste recently the idea is to turn waste into an integral part of a waste base so shaken omics isolation collect more recycle more and raise people's awareness easily done many have already had bad experiences with the trash heaps piled high outside their doors to. waste strewn on the edge of a township in south africa it's

a common sight when bend toxic fumes fill the air. that motivated the government difference form 50 illegal dumps into punk's and playgrounds as part of its war on waste but into benzene nicky from the municipal authority says such projects route succeed without the help of local residents so frank we're having a challenge of any kind of dumping where we are. trying so hard is our mess pushing messages and talk to our communities to make them understand that you own your own neighborhoods you know where your neighbor wants not government. to say it's a bad message between us and you have to take care of your own name by which it can work for us if you don't work with us wilma township home to 60000 people off as one example of what can be done. here kalani see one launched

a little feel a project with the help of a nonprofit organization right here transformed and he literally dumped into a vegetable garden the income from cells and now still to employ 5 luke men the produce sells well in the neighborhood. the 1st of all this garden helps to keep the environment clean because people no longer dump garbage here but it also helps the community by providing jobs in order for the garden to grow and succeed i need people to help now the garden provides a source of income and food. and we need other community based initiatives are also striving to keep the township from drowning in rubbish like we train a social empowerment project that works with waste because like. he and others collect recyclable waste from around the township each can sack. points if you can exchange for food clothing and other items mary had. found in the projects and will

help in the community so people think that thrown away means that it just goes away but we have a lot of people that live in those away places that live close to tips and places where garbage collectors. but it isn't a fair living condition for anyone central africa we're really trying to change that because our our informal housing is very close to those areas so we want them to be the best areas they can be if people are going to live in them. things to retreat collecting recyclables has become a really nice job in the area provided a link to provide all the income. that you grew up around me my neighbor and. mother. who. look after the business. back up the garden. in unpacking vegetables for hundreds of local families the coronavirus pandemic has

left many in the township without a source of income so they come not only to date. and the n.g.o.s that help them set up the garden are working together to assemble and. the cap packages once a blight on the neighborhood this area is now in lifeline and while south africa's war on waste is far from over the success of projects like those in walnut township sure that at least some of the battles are worth the fight. as you know here at eco africa we never tire of highlighting just how important i will ation ship to nature and that i will be back next week with a new edition of our environmental magazine i am now it's a way signing off from then to visit kind of park in lagos nigeria and by advice of my colleague in uganda by new york and goodbye to you know a deal of the us do not forget to check out our social media sites get involved let
