how it cannot. while. during a delicious romance. in 60 minutes. i'm david and this is a climate change brags that sex. happiness increase books. this is the book for you. you'll get smarter or free to go where you go on youtube. hello and welcome to africa the environment to show co-produced by n.t.v. in uganda china's t.v. in nigeria on the data in germany i am. on time with me as always is my co-host

crease in nigeria greece how are you today just fine sandra thank you so very much on the welcome to all of us out there we have a lot in store for you today on today's program so let's take a quick look out what we have coming up. that the company booking afonso is reliant on the power of the sun in order to avoid foresee feels. we meet a student from germany who has found the source of the book solution to be you would hold blue jeans and we'll talk with pioneers in genetic engineering which claim what you do when species die out. but 1st let's head to rwanda we know the plastic bags have been banned in gali for several years but their use is even criminal offense is not all or has the country gone even farther to reduce plastic in everyday life well not exactly steal very ideal for cycling is

becoming more popular let's see how plastic is being turned into a room much area to make other things. with. plastic in a country where the material is supposedly for. some a school creative point to speaker incidents when steve plantation rwanda is one of the 20 biggest t.v. producers in the world more than 800000 hectares of it an area twice is not just the city of paris spread across this green hills the t. harvested here is very valuable but it all plastic it wouldn't do was nearly as much pollution them would. the whole while pulling in is we need to sidley bags and plastic covers with denny becomes difficult to get the desired quality because the seed leaves depend on the moisture to grow to get delicious treat

a train it's like a mushroom you more the members of the 4000 strong corporative use more than 2000000 plastic tubes and other plastic materials the chair and the capital kigali the government is waging a war against plastic the punishment for the production import and sell of single use plastics is now up to a year in jail ever mentally jinsa remedy recognizes that the journey to a future without plastic will require a lot of creativity and predators and as we move on we act when you have more tentative when we still have to look for better or tentative we really are always preferable but every quarter need to play with a framework for dealing with. back to use of prosthetics. intelligent to care for their. plants is one of the company is looking for an

intelligent way to deal with excess plastic waste they employ 11 teams that regularly travel the country collecting it they use what they get primarily to make fun paradox after all teeth are in the only one having difficulties finding the right tubes for their siblings. we talked to with the dead did one die environment i john. on do we agreed on week each type of plastic needed any i'd be cut off. and that's where we started making i've got to 2 being. which is used to me we need not sorry. we produced also plastic sheeting. since then they've been manufacturing plastic materials from those reviews but the point isn't just they were meant to be friendly production once the process started it's meant to be sustainable.

what do you do we've money talk it out we know there we have the then located. after using and if they are necessary our product we go back they on you would bring back they're there they're used to plastic waste and also we do the same the same or. the furnace from the us if i could pray to have a part of the cycle the middle have the conditions storing training courses and sis and remind all of you that the plastics you are left with after planting to seedlings are not meant for other uses must be returned also whenever you see plastic please don't even think this is a way to increase the productions from our farms and to save god the environment. they're cool for ever been to a protectionism just empty talk the corporative us committed itself to the cause pledge incidents whatever it purchases to be recycled to use

a deal that's been else. every farmer who gets the silliness must ensure the return plastics corresponding to the number of silliness each to their 4 will make sure they are all trucked and delivered back to recycling plant that is also a benefit because a plant pays us for the amount delivered and they end its progress for the environment more business for the co-operative and another milestone on the road to rwanda becoming one of the environmentalists cleanest countries in africa. yes created really food new planes from used materials this is what a secular economy could look like in the future now with that in mind a young student from germany wondered what could be done with the millions of bottles of clothing that are no longer wanted at least for blue jeans this instead

of father nancy let's start with. piles and piles of used clothes a loss ends up in the trash. that paul the dutch design student tim founded lure so together with a charity band you know start missy on he set up a used clothing depo. text also sold for $2.00 to $4.00 euros per kilo it's also we have had to do it came up with the idea for his new blue jeans. he has the denim shredded and processes that in his workshop when mixed with water the father was born to form a soft fleece the passion is embroidered right on to the fleece which strengthens the fabric and eliminates the need for paper pattern when i started to. through small part until it was very important to me that i focus on the concepts and ideas

of circular economy that everything is regenerated. when the new denim is moistened the excess bits can simply be plucked off these leftovers added to the next batch of clicks. on a joyous received an award and various grants for his idea now as part of an even innovation program he's working on a sustainably died and process pressure time after that he can get down to designing most likely a commie fashion. then how about you if you're also doing your bit terms about it visit our website and do so. week. after day doing your bit. sharing your story. and lavi when these bonds one out they can be turned into his solution to it's a great idea to keep things out of the sockets i'm very impressed peace and

a single idea is also becoming increasingly important when dealing with many in the same species some of these plants on being used on a school struction team. are being processed into fish food oh you know a case here in bed as tonnage into a delicacy in the restaurants they call africa takes you to know that you have to know a. hauling a trap in from the ocean bed do it hi chad i had only set it out the day before had a depth of 180 meters but one day was enough for the tour guide to almost feel the cage with king crabs a delicacy all over the world yet the christie ations also pose a growing ecological threat job in the water you get eaten from the ground we have crept right over your. leader no to catch we need only from the

front door the back 15 centimeters. harvesting king crabs has brought unheard of prosperity to norway's economically constrained far north. it's even enriched the remote fishing village of digger ness so destitute in 1909 the residents put it up for sale in an average. young people then were moving away because there was no work. now the village has been revived hosting bed and breakfast and even a beast wrote all things to the king crab. fisherman late was among the 1st to discover the non-native species after their names. soviet researchers had released them into the barents sea in the 1950 s. . but was unaware of that when he found the monster crab and his nets

one day. don't call me the 1st crabs we call the i weighed all 10 to 12 kilos. we were really all completely by surprise i think about. going to the crabs hadn't turned up we wouldn't have any fish processing in town to go nor any fishing boats or at most 2 or 3 but today we have 15 or 16 boats. the explosive spread of the king crab is a boon to the fisherman but environmentalists and scientists are alarmed the races predators are being spotted further and further south they're expected to reach the scottish coast soon and can even adapt to the war mediterranean waters. and wherever these crabs become established they have devastating effects on of the marine life on the sea bed. some species like

mussels and starfish have disappeared completely. the king crab is also known as the monster crab it has no natural enemies and poses a threat to every other living thing on the seabed so fisheries authorities have made the quote as generous. see him we have the right to capture 10 crabs for our own use a free person per year. on crab is worth $900.00 kroner. 90 euro's right in our pockets multiplied by 10 and you know for a 1000 euros you're reaching a look 3 delicacy for free that's. what. services gas after only a short time in the kitchen can otherwise be had only and europe's and asia's finest restaurants norway exports over 2000 tonnes of king crab all around the world annually while environmental concerns about invasive species continue the

tourists savor it spicy meat and the norwegian authorities hope the high fishing quotas will help keep its population under control. keeping nature's healthy balance is not easy often there is too much of one thing and too late to over another these sought and t. is the case we've been neatly extant in northern white rhino today the only 2 of them left an off and both female now people are finished looking for ways to save the species from extinction for german and italian santas on a plan could be the debt of success for the koreas. the future of an entire species is suspended here in liquid nitrogen cooled to minus $196.00 degrees the contents of these contain is that the life it's institute for zoo and wildlife research in berlin will determine whether or not the northern watch rhinos will

become extinct so we did all cycle action where we harvest 14 always hearts of course the highest number of you ever got form rhino and we were extremely happy about that outcome and on christmas eve 2 embryos for photos and so that we at another 2 and boost to our already existing sphere because i think all p.j. took conservancy in kenya and internet. team of researchers led by veterinarian thomas here the plant collected immature eggs from far to one of the last 2 remaining northern why dry nose in december. far too and their genes are females the last male saddam died in 2018. the great stone in this century commemorates him his sperm was preserved this has allowed researchers to create embryos a crucial steps says chairs that

a girl lay of the oven taya biotechnology laboratory incremental where the expert fertilized with sudan sperm. we normally or we can maybe embarrass is a map of the world or every 3 or 4 months and we know we can produce a medicine list from. the embryos are now waiting to be transferred to a surrogate mother. the researchers plan to use southern white line is a subspecies with about $18000.00 animals still surviving now gene and fast who can no longer carry the embryos themselves because of their age but they already grazing together with the possible surrogate mother taber a southern white rhino female the centuries ranges can't wait after years of fearing for the species survival so it is a he would hope at least in the near future we'll be having some baby not only trials which is

a watery of paying for. the researchers are doing everything they can to ensure that the 1st northern why dry no calf can be born in as little as 3 years that would be a start to building up a larger population and bringing the animals back from the brink of extinction. hopefully there was. something else but they are you me just a bit crazy. what does that mean. thanks to the bacteria to the seed for planting. to help. in the fight against the past an initiative is trying to. get. here in the northwestern part of ghana mainly cultivate soybeans. in the

fields to care for full hectares of land. 4 years ago for dealer took part in a training session for sustainable agriculture since then had crop yields in a profit have increased. in addition to farming he shares recently established a 2nd business she sells for additional textiles and the communities around her village. i used to have. a use in the lands it's 7 to 8 bucks. there she learned how to inoculate seeds during a training session conducted by the company greenie today the farmers in ginger also taking part. in the met that is simple the seeds together with water and sugar before dr bianchi had bacteria added bacteria keypads the way

each cow pct must be more just. dried the seeds must be so precise distances to one another thanks to this method the farmers no longer have to use chemical pesticides. more than 500 farmers have been trained by the company so far. mahomet's the cheap who came up with the idea for the training sessions he actually studied business but soon switched to agricultural philosophy. his team instructs the farmers of how to run their farms in more sustainable ways such as by using the plant remains for compost or bio coal. the families of kidnapped plants for example i especially well suited to enriching depleted soils. and then the war so how produced by you which is very good soil progress all properties like you know what

to hold in a bucket and this oil remediation and also pollution so you got a point i mean it had would have been a pass like i mean i use that to remediate. the farmers can even test the make up up in soil if needed the samples that then sent to the company's own lab. although the training sessions for the small scale farmers are free the sole analysis comes between one and 30 euros depending on what exactly is being tested for farmers it's worth it because they learn exactly what the soil needs and prevent the use of sex if you know anything made this preventing the leeching of some of these excesses and i doubt what our bodies run off into surface whatever these core simple lucene says at the source of what that form and in mass and i don't believe in a kind of sense since having his soul tested family just show conlan really uses

fertilizers anymore before the analysis he found exclusively soybeans but now that changed. 10 years ago when i started self testing with. i produced maize as their commander to me and then my results doubled i got 70 bucks more. from always good to fold and this has helped me to be able to acquire. from tractor which is help in my production. john should come learn expanded from small to medium skill and culture for the he isn't quite there yet but she's well on her way. and you technologies can sometimes help the environment and healthier so why shouldn't we use them and this also applies to the energy supply but you know about the screens sure sundra one

example is blocking a fossil the country has difficulty reaching its letters the needs schools and medical centers in rural areas are especially hard heats are few years ago our european union reports highlighted decentralization on a more sustainable energy mix as possible solutions and now things in the west african country seem to be moving in that direction. see. this in a kitchen this roof is reliable and doesn't inquire much maintenance on my glasses 2000 you're doing vestment was money well spent for him and his family he had to save up for a very long time to be able to afford it home are. you why i installed the solar panels and literally years ago now we have lights a television set a fridge so we can drink cold water out of fuel. it is very useful since we never know if or when we will be hooked up with it being returned to solar and causing. a

call that a sample of only 15 percent of the population are linked to the national electricity grid in between so could go by so like you instead they can now be found at small local shops and the streets light and made also solar powered know what. he had in one of the world is countries in africa a local business the fossil energy company has set up a plant to produce dishonesties jim says it is because in west africa them in the budgeting equipment and components of the solar system imported from europe the government waived import duties. the production equipment is the very latest it is very complex and enables us to make high quality products the panels we make are basically the same as the more does that have been certified in germany we couldn't keep it on the plane much of

a manufacturing process is isolated but some steps down by 170 people one at the plant when all behind and we meant this in a self help to be sold out to the panels manually to create them would you and i. place the antenna system has to be robust enough to withstand high temperature as it can be 45 degrees such as in the. should we. also. this is where we test the panels when a panels comes out of the machine we check all this oil does and see if there are any cracks anywhere if everything is ok we wear the strings in this house together finally we attach a serial number to prevent counterfeiting. the company has talked on company and can supply chains that interrupted the event of competition in the market which in west africa is officially some companies if you

feel so imagine not only the domestic market but neighboring countries to feed. their production line and here this is where we store the finished products. last buy out what we produce is a 200 barrels a day the cleveland of 30 to 80 may go as annually. and. the company's main customer is the government which aims to build this year of renewables in the missioner imagine if it wants to do it for you to inform and that can begin to give the generators to produce close and minimize. the energy ministry launched the backups really program and i didn't see is implemented. enables citizen as well as small and medium enterprises to buy

solar panels by providing them interest free loans. since we started the program in 2019 more than 4000 companies and people have been affected from it because. as it shifts from generating electricity with fossil fuels. the government is promoting song that with renewed vigor is planning to build 16 led to the harms over the next couple of years to provide clean energy to entire city neighborhoods. we have reached the end of this technology pocked edition of i could offer as you've seen there are so many innovations that can help us protect the environment on enhance our lives but for now the time has come for me to say goodbye chris celebs signing off from lagos nigeria by priests i look forward to seeing you again next week and goodbye to all

of you view as all of this but do be sure to tune in next time for more amazing stories here on a quick offical and till then it is a good bye for me sundra to no deal in complex.
