7:48 am
trend. a grandmother wields a pick axe soso ranch but is planting the 1st tree for her baby granddaughter all of the families here follow the same ritual there are $111.00 trees for each newborn girl. it is those that a man would have made when i was born my mother and father were very unhappy that i was a girl today we're planting trees because we're happy when i got one if my parents had experienced this and i'm sure they would have been proud of me too. the maybe it is in there that would get a bit of medieval ago a lot has changed in the village of pea plant tree thanks to shams under polly wallace he came up with the tree planting idea 13 years ago back then he was mayor today when proud parents introduce him to their newborn girl he can barely believe that things haven't always been like this but 13 years ago girls were still
7:49 am
regarded isn't fieri or as worthless children. to be continued into adult it used to be that women weren't allowed to leave the house alone you had to hide behind the curtains for that was a man's doing they were afraid something would happen to the women but this is changed dramatically. and it's not just thanks to the trees now parents pledge to not marry off their daughters before their 18th birthday. they're also required to educate their daughters in return the village community opens a savings account for each girl. when my granddaughter was born it was if the goddess luck schmooze good fortune has entered our home now we deposit 150 euros into a savings account and she on sunday or gives us twice that amount this the little one can later pay for her education of course we also plant the tree as to what was an. idea for the trees and the education fund has
7:50 am
a very personal motive 13 years ago his own daughter died he doesn't like talking about the exact circumstances afterwards the businessman fell into a deep depression he thought a lot about how girls in india are often harassed and disadvantaged he had a monument put up in his daughter's honor but it wasn't enough he wanted to do something more. but then i planted the tree as a memorial and as a way of coping with my grief but i soon realised that one tree wasn't enough. why we started this program $111.00 trees for each girl it has to be as many as that of this area had become a total waste land and now you can see the result. but you know the region around people on tree is full of marble quarries this is how it used to look 13 years and 350000 new trees later a dense forest now surrounds the village it's
7:51 am
a blessing for the microclimate and the hot summer and the village of 5000 is now more prosperous because the forest is cultivated local see the boom is directly connected to the support for the girls things are changing now there are just as many girls as boys in the classroom 10th grader. explains why it often looks rather different in the rest of india. but boys get an education often don't they're seen as a burden that's also why so many females are aborted killed right after they're born that's led to that being fall fewer go than boy. 13 years ago coal mines mother was one of the 1st people to plant trees for her daughter even though komal was already 2 years old at the time her mother wanted to take part when komal goes into the woods today she knows that some of the trees bear her name it's a great feeling and they cannot pick up. what benefit me i'm
7:52 am

7:53 am
but many of them come to get ideas are gone they want to do the same thing. it's gone will be it's a great mix of them or the little guy getting it on men and they. when it all gets to be too much for him he withdraws to the forest this is the tree that started it all the tree that he planted for his deceased daughter. she says that at least her death had a positive effect his daughter would certainly have been proud of her father. this week our worldwide search for tasty snacks takes us to iceland. the icelandic landscapes are spectacular and you don't even have to leave town to enjoy them even from the center of reykjavik there are breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains because it tends to be pretty cold for most of the year but
