measures are being taken. as the latest research says. information and context. the coronavirus of data the cause of special monday to friday w. . humans and every other living being on earth is a part of nature we all come from nature and back to return but up past actions have been extracted and have caused harm to the planet we called who are the fault of actually working in harmony with nature on today's episode we look closely at how we can build and encourage

a symbiotic relationship with me about it i will welcome to equal india sun about our. let's begin to be as sure with forests that importance for the health of the global climate is undisputed yet deforestation is a bit of reality in today's world invest in maharashtra and organization is trying something interesting there incentivizing planting trees so that farmers not only have a steady income but also contribute to the local forest for a region that's the norm to be extremely prolonged droughts how does this really work let's take a look. and. get . these women are planting saplings of native trees in western maharashtra it's not just a reforestation project. they're planting the trees on farmland which otherwise stays

barren the idea to dawn abandoned land into forests came from the organization follows for forests if you really think about forests i think you know they're not just sort of you know carbon storage powerhouses right they provide a range of ecosystem benefits you know everything from being governed sequesters to you know providing ground water recharge you know soil conservation you know habitat for bio diversity our markets our systems don't put a financial value yet on such you know the services that these ecological systems provide. that's the market failure that payment for ecosystem strikes to correct. muscle forus is approaching small scale. he leased out of his unused land in 2020 to the organization they went on to plant 8000 saplings setting

the groundwork for growing a thriving carbon sequestering forest. as the owner of the land the hov lane will now be paid quarterly cash transfers of around 100 euros for the next 5 years by far most for forests for ecosystem services that the trees will soon provide. then you should have lain many runs a small garage business the 23 year old belongs to a family of landholding farmers in western maharashtra but agriculture alone he says has become financially and viable to support his family of 6 and it was imperative that he find a paddle means of livelihood. many people have quit farming they have become industrial laborers and some have a started their own businesses because farming is not the same anymore which is why i started my shop of the ghetto farmers and. have become very erratic in the

last year if this continues farming region will disappear. mrs vanishes land. ogram family so far as has been piloting the payment for ecosystem services o p s approach with 2 objectives in mind to protect existing forests and grow new forest on degraded land. within a year of starting operations they began receiving institutional grants from indian n.g.o.s and from doing as. they've already been able to plan $20000.00 native trees as part of a 5 year pilot project. for every piece of land they try to plant as many trees as possible. because even. when we finalize a piece of land we have to measure its length and brett i curriculum the device the market this is done using this device is. doing this is very important because the

draft of the plantation is made accordingly you can as a reason ok so we have to do our work very accurately. now. through g.p.s. tags and satellite images the team closely monitors the health of each tree after planting. and the project also supports women farmers and laborous. they're working on this 3.5 acre plot of land belonging to shindig. currently works part time at a petrol station he hopes of the cash transfers from the p.s. project will help him get back into farming he's convinced that if he benefits from this project more farmers will follow. him that day and then if the have their

investment will also benefit the next generation that had been in the forests has planted all the creek the rights to the land are entirely ours despite the 5 year rental agreement that the organization and everything that grows on the land. the fruit. in the years to come and the timber they will provide all belong to us. even if the project ends in 5 years fall most of forests wants to attract more donors in the near future. this will allow forestation in this region to keep progressing helping local farmers to become less vulnerable to the effects of climate change. now working in sync with nature even if some of us might act otherwise brings big rewards they can always fishing industry for example the biggest in europe when they find

a new species in their water king crab which eats everything that crosses that spot and multiplies fast they decided to use the signal to get a bond to each let's take a look at how this was possible. did loves the arctic ocean the german has been living in norway's high north for 12 years. he takes tourists to see the sights along the coast near the russian border. he brings up one of those sites from the bottom of the sea for this took root. he only set out the trucks the day before at a depth of 180 meters but one day was long enough for him to pull up. thousands of king crabs a delicacy all around the world yet the crabs also a growing ecological problem the crest stations multiply like rabbits. job and the water you're good he. grabs right over your. harvesting the king crabs has brought

an unheard of prosperity to norway's economically constrained time nor including for the remote fishing village of big guy nace. in 1989 residents ran an advertisement offering their village for sale. young people were moving away because there was no work. now the village has been revived complete with bed and breakfasts and even a bistro. on there and it's all thanks to none other than the king crab. fisherman life in the lair was among the 1st to discover the non-native species of big a nice. piece of it researchers had released them in the barents sea in the 1950 s. . but there was unaware of that when he found the monster crab in his nets one day. crabs we caught we tend to.

we were taken completely by surprise. really or does the crabs hadn't turned up. any fish processing in town. the explosive spread of the invasive crab is a boon to the fisherman but norwegian environmentalists and scientists are loaned the crabs eat almost anything posing a threat to native ecosystems and they being spotted father and father self. we found that the crabs are able to adapt to water temperatures of eating degree celcius that means they can survive in the mediterranean. wherever these crabs become established they have devastating effects on the other marine life on the seabed. some species mussels and starfish have disappeared completely. along with.

the king crab also known as the monster crab has no natural enemies fishery authorities have made the quotas generous in an attempt to keep its population under control but mark. says his guests after only a short time in the kitchen can otherwise be had only in europe's and asia's finest restaurants norway exports over 2000 tons of king crab all around the world and many. locals the tourists alike enjoy the crabs flavorful meat for the norwegian authorities it's a balancing act they want to preserve the crab population that brings so much business to the region while ensuring that the invasive species doesn't spread. the people of northern norway hope this lucrative source of income will last a while longer they've already built a money went to the king crab. if you move into the cities you're no stranger to the greens to point 5

a particular point 5 feast mosques that block the spot tickles from entering have been a reality for a long before. but back to going to matter is norton local phenomenon it's a negative environment of influence that exists everywhere on the planet to all cities unsustainable cities we met a group of people in berlin who are working to solve this problem. middle berlin a livable is best achieved with the help of people who live here. using new technology to contribute to a better understanding of traffic. i would like to see the city authorities and the general public taking care of the trees. this park in berlin is a green and

a popular destination for people getting some early morning exercise or a breath of fresh air before work. berlin is not a city plagued by major traffic congestion and its industrial sector is relatively small. but some residents still complain about poor air quality and it built and set up their own sensors to measure particular matter with a view to making the data. contraptions air pipes are easy enough to make with d.i.y. store. has a little infrared gauge inside to measure the tiny particles flying by. it relays that data to a little processor. yes long fight hasn't gotten here we have another sensor that measures the temperature and humidity before the days are measured every 2 and a half minutes and sent to the database. on a missile or shipped us on

a dock. is installing a sensor on the roof of this art center. there are already $260.00 of the devices up and running across the land on apartment balconies at traffic junctions and in backyards. volunteers his free time to help others build and set up their own sensors. funguses or yes. i love the idea of collecting data and making it available to the public there is official data gathering in a couple of locations around berlin but it's very limited. as a former smoker i know how dangerous particularly matter can be and i decided to get involved with. the project began

a few years ago in chicago where activists created this website prompted by the diesel emissions scandal. individuals register their air pipes on the site where their data are constantly updated. the project now includes measurements in $71.00 countries 3 people based in southern germany run the website on a voluntary basis 'd. i spent 2 years in china and i'm very familiar with the pollution in beijing and shanghai. i could see how it affected my own health. i was fairly sporty beforehand but then i had to shorten my role myself and play. berlin based artist. has turned the data into a virtual reality installation it's on show here at the city lab a nonprofit foundation for innovation. the installation visualizes what the sensors

record because particularly matter cannot be seen by the naked eye. just. remember these are the this these circles show current conditions in virtual reality and. of course when it's my year tomorrow morning if i go over to the other monitor i can see that same section on a bigger map beason pushed on jets vanished in virtual reality and if i now put on my view your visor it puts me right in the middle of the particularly matter. over at the they've been working on green projects for more than 30 years now and are now building sensors for particulate matter. the aim is to increase public awareness of air pollution. and it's with a bit of a type hopefully we'll see people getting involved similarly to wikipedia and that

days are being made available to everyone. this innocuous looking sensor has now been replicated hundreds of times by people in berlin the hope is that the data can be used to make information about air pollution public and not just in the german capital. not air pollution as many free since in india when you don't come not only from. power plants but also from something as basic and ubiquitous as a cooking store for millions of people the daily chore of cooking poses a real danger a sea level. is providing the much needed. you know in this cramped kitchen shugart daughter is making buckley's for her family of 6 she's using a traditional cooking stall a junior which blows out clouds of smoke. on my feet it's

a view of the use of mud still. we don't have an alternative let's look at the markets people left who twitchy last for generations their business if you don't have the money to buy fuel. if we did we might be able to use another kind of stalling and i guess he's. in google india over 77 percent of households still use fiber cheap and easy to access liquid petroleum gas or l.p.g. is a privilege reserved for the. google with open fire means long hours to spend a hot stove breathing in kerosene fumes and smoke from and on. collecting food is a burden on the environment and a strenuous doest of it. each

year almost half a 1000000 people die prematurely from illness attributed to household air pollution in india. traditional stoves are the main source of the problem and vim and young children are the vest affected. these kuka stoves are so inefficient that the vast up to 90 percent of the unity generated and require up to one 3rd of the family's income for food they'd also responsible for a quarter of the world's black carbon emissions. on. a social enterprise has been working to tackle the problem of energy poverty and the role for india has developed and efficient thermal cookstove it uses void but around 60 percent less than a traditional stove it is also designed to significantly cut the smoke and docks

the commissions that are responsible for health problems. the organization distributes disturbed student households in india and elsewhere in the hood at a subsidized rate my lunch out of government equip set up in a way that that you have had the project for 3 years and vietnam seen its benefits up in a possible insulters improving they save a lot of time in the news in this kind of life and i love that in the paddock and benefit is that they live in a joint prone area and fewer trees are being chopped down. this has a huge positive impact they're more thought of for the love. of those who lives in the village neighboring shrug or made the switch with the help of a community led micro-finance group many like her can't afford even the subsidized cost of 30 euros and need financial help.

might it is what there is there was that when we used to need more than 10 kilos of wood now we need only 5 and cooking takes half the time but used to take our is this they had to be like there's a lot of. doctors still struggles with health issues resulting from a smoke inhalation she can't afford to buy one of the new store. orders are cut by ice borne the water continuously the older i get the less i can see i have frequent bouts of called and cough on my neck and back hard from the piles of food i have to carry any. like sharda some 700000000 people in india continue to rely on solid fuel and traditional cookstove smoking energy poverty remains a major problem. evolution and killer

traffic are almost synonymous in urban societies around the what there are many projects underway for tackle this problem and eliminate it from b. to the life you need just capital jakarta like all major cities in the world is no stranger to the effects of increasing traffic congestion and the air pollution it gives rise to an expert in the city is experimenting with hydrogen as fuel for a mission model of transportation. congestion. the major problem faced by big cities around the world including jakarta it's typically caused by the lack of a good public transit system with a growing number of vehicles on the street because air quality is going from bad to worse. energy based on hydrogen is one of the solutions for creating a transportation system with less noise and fewer emissions.

professor any i'm with yani dewey is among the leading experts in this field since 1988 she has been conducting research in alternative energy with hydrogen fuel cells. we did research on producing hydrogen become be obtained from waste or from methanol but the easiest way is to get it from water. and here the end product is again water that we can use the electrolysis method to produce water from water the hydrogen goes into a fuel cell it becomes water again and later electricity this is current energy storage. the 2nd way is to source it from natural gas as is done in the fertilizer industry or thermal power stations because it's cheaper. the 3rd method is to get hydrogen from renewable materials. fuel cells work in a similar style to batteries the only difference is that while producing energy

fuel cells continue to work as long as a fuel source is available they can also contain 10 times more energy than a lithium battery. so bad but that's something they can be used for transportation. at home. as a backup power for machinery. or for energy storage to start their lives back in. one application is this motor with a 500 watt passably the fuel cell technology developed by professor any alist yani duly. requires an average of one leader of hydrogen gas to produce one kilowatt hour of energy the production costs however are still far higher than with fossil fuel based energy solutions here at the agency for the assessment application of technology any honesty i mean do we try to enhance hydrogen production to be more efficient so one of the breakthroughs in the fuel cell field is discovering

a new catalyst in electricity producing generators for the future the scientist is thinking of an overall energy concept for the city. my dream is to build a hydrogen city in indonesia it will have a hydrogen based economy. that's the best so if we apply it to transportation it will mean an environmentally friendly satins at that that's one thing going on and in people's homes it will have 0 net emissions 0 and. that i hope we can do this in indonesia said. the professor will continue her research on creating hydrogen fuel effectively to create transportation that is comfortable and without pollution or emissions the more efficient the fuel cell is the more likely it will be possible to use it on a broader scale. if we allowed the benefits that major

provides us with our enormous i hope of these should give you the information and inspiration to work in sync with nature if you haven't already started to do so i'll see you again next week from all of us in between.
