kampala uganda and yet a week of a load install for you to do stay tuned and enjoy the show here's a quick preview of what is coming up shortly. simple minds minds we see but how are things in kenya this protecting both elephants on the forest. we moved an artist in ghana please bring new life into the grounds of cycling can. and thinking be how young and keeping us here in uganda a town in the ideas into the young to. laws of floating on water are unlovely sight bought a 40 lunch can be something of a pissed when they turn up in the wrong places we've caught a few reports on the trouble what a hyacinths opposed to some communities now on liquor also in coming to the local residents of course of asian is a black man with another invested species that is causing

a host of problems there. paddling through lake also has become more of a struggle since the subtle venia plants altered his ecosystem sees richard legally a fisherman who grew up in a small community on the shores of the lake the 1st screwing we block sunlight and depletes oxygen from the water suffocate an aquatic life. the 70 a is giving us a lot of trouble. it is affected my fishing. activity long in the past when i went out to fish i would have a good catch for me and my family by me and i thought now it's become really hard for. this morning a group of local residents from design we have come together to clear the invasive plants from the main entrance to the lake the villages are worried it will spread

to other sections that have not yet been affected lake is cameron's largest natural lake with a total surface area of nearly 40 square kilometers but it's now infested with water most all salvina nearly 40 percent of its surface is covered as a proliferates the plant also threatens the locals livelihoods. a local neighboring model comes invention organization i'm cool regularly organizes the cleanups for 5 years now the team has been striving hard to protect the link from their grass of wheat to find a more efficient solution i receipts to coo cam has set up a research site in the village he wants to find out if they can use a biological weapon to destroy the water most on a large scale you have a political history there chris. this small bug feeds on slovenia tests from last year showed that it can completely eliminate plans cover

in a matter of months i'm cool is already negotiating its deployments with the commute government but they have been concerns in the community due to fears the bug also eats their crops. biological can crawl using this salvia weaver has been used in many countries around the world including in 15 countries in africa and the best example is that of senna god they were able to get rid of that sort of you know within a year using the biological control and the way this weaver works is that if it's specific on this sardinia what happened after eating salvia it just died because they have not to. twice a month the researcher makes the trip from cameroon capital young to work at the leak accompanied by colleagues and students i'm cool also collects data on the african manatee the least studied large mammal in africa they're shy by nature and

active at night so sightings are rare in order to detect the creatures location and movements to kuka muses specialised equipment including. the information gained is critical for the conservation of the grease will animals so the reason my team and i working so hard is because we want to save the african american which is being threatened by poor chain which is illegal hunting of this species and also kryten by accidentally cut short in fishing net their population over or raising and even especially here in it also where these trade offs are venus has combined to the home thing making the population to even decrease cluster the conservation group regularly sends out volunteers to speak to the local community the purpose is to inform villages about the importance of put. the leak and all its natural resources including the manatees they too are struggling to survive.

when a manatee gets caught in a net that eats up all the fish even if it's $100.00. the problem is due to the fact that manatees don't have access to enough sea grass it's chucked out by the survey near survey trish. many of these community members have lost their source of income because of salvina. local fishermen have plenty of incentive to do all they can to remove the alien plant and prevent its break and they hope that aristide to come on his team will soon get the go ahead to introduce the tiny bug that will save the leak by devouring its pesky surface cover for. what an interesting project we know to pay a visit to the sun relatives of the money the elephants look at. me elephants are

amazing creatures. difficult to move because they. can't even destroy entire forests. or a forest passed away. let's take a look. here in france and other wildlife are home free without posing a threat to farm us and their livestock living nearby but because they are separated by an electric fence joseph walks for a conservation. just the fence and oversaw its construction it's sort of powered and has proved to be very reliable. sections of the forest in the great rift valley . we did about 43.3 kilometers and it's done now. and now with their work we are doing now is the meeting now. and also to be.

in the community so that they can be able to call it must citizen is a forest beekeeper one of many here they belong to a good community which has practiced beekeeping for hundreds of years the bees are kept in traditional wooden hives and the honey is extracted by hand beekeeping is still allowed in the forest chopping down trees and hunting are not. now and. should come out if we took care of why the animal lives in the same way they must look after their cattle or other communities into their livestock crops so we live honey and bush meats and live here in the knowledge that this was like off on a quiet night when your to do this into it and was in a fairly. lot of order to protect the forest the indigenous community has been given land and access to water outside its use of karaoke has now turned to tom

a little funny. when you have one of his own we don't depend on this is us anymore it used to be the kiss this time of the you wouldn't see any greenery here more than the ground would be patched up there with me so i was a anybody is one of the biggest changes are going to test. now it's green everywhere then vitamin task really changed there you member women to me claim that these things are supposed to protect key areas of forest where in full feeds can as regards the product which receives support from government agencies charitable foundations and the corporate sector has proved a great success and now ariel martin would land in other parts of the country are being fenced as well. i know me if you. see. forest being. there for the animals and for and firemen so and i'm quite happy to see such an electric fence set up to protect the sound was from

going outside to the community. and that in turn has protected the community from damage caused by wondering why life. vince's are giving the forests the animals living here in the nearby communities to feed them to flora she . went on town to an enchanting art form still focused today last moment after learning the technique in new york an artist in ghana now creates all sorts of new typical things in his workshop. just write songs and says there is no professional glass recycling as such in gonna find a way of clearing off some of the waste by turning it into other useful objects here is this week's doing your bits. we. want want our goal with our delicious fruit. or hard.

the materials used to make this glowing molten blob came from the garbage. when we were. a lot. nicer glass. governor doesn't have a formal system for collecting and recycling waste glass so a lot ends up in landfills the only certified glass blower in west africa michael taytay works exclusively with recycled glass his craft requires a lot of patience on experience let down grow a little. a little bit off. the mark would push it but if. you prove me wrong to my work group numerous steps are required to complete each unique object which takes a makes you know wide variety of colors hatton's shapes and sizes is i catch in

creations of sold in a gallery for around 11 year as each. of these pieces are tina made you can give them any design in the specification and you make it on the color for you also has products. and we like the fact that he's to waste into usable artifacts and to ensure that sustainable glassblowing has a few cheering ghana michael to take also teaches this traditional craft to young people in his workshop passing on his sustainable methods to the next generation of artists. then how about you if you're also doing your bit tell us about it visit our website or send us a tweet. after doing your bit. we share your story. pretty much the world over

these are known to be industrious creatures in english we've been used to chair busy bees well like many other insects they are under threats others are for ticks or stalk overbought region of kosovo is sold a new rope there calls official is still working to protect a good lick not through a habit with important pollinators plea a key role. it's usually men who wear this kind of outfits in kosovo they are hardly any female beekeepers in the country sheep or shyla is one of them the beekeeping season might be over but she still checks on her charges. regularly. and electric fence protects her hives from the bears that still roam this area near preserving kosovo's 2nd largest city. the shar manton's national park just to the south is

a refuge for balkan links this species of wildcat is critically endangered there are only a few dozen of them left. sheep or shall or has 150 beehives she's the boss and her husband works for her that's quite an unusual set up but it works for them. if you want to be all we like to do things systematically. i start from one and. my husband starts from the other. we like to compete. it's kind of a game to see who can check more beehives. today it looks like a tie. once the inspections are done charlotte takes care to extinguish the coal in her smoker which is used to come the bees a forest fire could have disastrous consequences. she doesn't have any trouble

finding buyers for her organic honey. it sells for twice the price of the honey sold at street side markets beekeeping sheep breeding and she's making are an important part of the economy in kosovo the youngest and smallest nation in the balkans. shallow went abroad to study organic farming methods. nowadays environmental activists come to see her to learn how she applies organic methods to be keeping. the aim is to raise awareness across kossovo of eco friendly farming practices. i attended a workshop in germany i learned a lot about animal welfare which nobody here knows anything about i'm now giving courses to pass on this knowledge i hope people will come to realize we have to protect. and that includes b.s. they are so important for the environment. nature conservation can be an

uphill battle. in kosovo and neighboring albania hydro power plants are still widely considered an eco friendly way to generate electricity but building more of them alongside illegal timber felling would further shrink the habitats of endangered species such as bess lynx and wolves. sheepish alice says most of the people don't realise what is going on they're just not aware of the issues but she wants to change that. we have to pay more attention to our natural environment especially in the national park this also affects my business. if forest clearance and everything that goes along with it is allowed to go on i will eventually lose my beliefs. because of it gained independence in 2008 it's only natural she says that it will take a while for such

a young country to sort things out. for one remains optimistic. back to africa now to meet a man here in the large area who believes that farming should be both sustainable and profitable something or bully has declared war on the concept of soft cisterns farming where farmers plant a small plot of land and just about make ends meet a few years ago they launched a training campaign aimed at revolutionizes small scale farming with hydroponic agriculture. samson or bullis sees agribusiness as the root of sustainable development and job creation the head trainer at farm that in a good state southwestern nigeria believes agriculture must be business minded technology driven and climate smart the 38 year old is also keen to pass on his knowledge to others. remember if you practice like record show you before practice

i agree business you're on the on the road to wealth so what is. grandfather and. how rich was your grandpa. how rich. you know if they are not wealthy how can the poor sister make you rich. over the past 7 years has trained over 10000 young nigerians for him agriculture is no way to make a quick buck and requires a hands on approach. on a lot of people and i realize not everybody has the amounts to pay for training now you don't want people to going to agriculture without being properly trained if not they would waste money time with the resources so i figure out front i am setting up more farms what if i give people the opportunity to walk. at the same time so

instead of looking for money to pay for your lesson fee for your lengthy fee and all of that. for free and actually set up a form farmers like gloria oil lobby you hope to scale up their agribusiness using the hydroponic method this uses water rich in nutrients instead of soil this makes planting and harvesting possible regardless of season. why because it is less. and to. create almost as quickly not quickly will almost. always. students built this growing patch during a one week program they learned how to set up a soil a sterile panic from nutrient laden nourishes the plants which makes maximum use of

area and fertilizer. from an apples to be a principle if you follow the principle you can apply to many plants you want to develop on your farm so for the trough system you will you want to set up the trial for the plan. i always great about the way for workers to do for obviously. samson agoa and his farm team are convinced solace farming could be a blueprint for sub-saharan african countries to feed themselves sustainably and profitably. with the number of students increasing daily plans to grow his training program across nigeria. whoa amazing what they're doing on that report is also about training young people 1st time not far from where you all sundra. what's going on there well the program is meant to show how business opportunities and jobs can be created while on the same time

protecting our planet and its resources we've visited london cab that encourages young people to turn their visions if you reality and we met some pretty inspiring entropy. our house collapsed will only be empty when mother died from the injuries from suffered so i turned in my opinion food passed into motivation i never knew that what i'm doing would turn this big to me until environment. i thought and out i thought discriminated because of my often falling sick from malaria i am now part of the solution in my country 2 people each of the vision joy another got produces some wouldn't send that propels mosquitoes according to the un every 2 minutes a child under the age of 5 dies of malaria. even if i'm not saving all the kids

have found jobs. one of the solutions latest to come paula we're plastic waste is a huge problem 350000 tons of trash accumulates in the ugandan capital every year and only half of it is disposed off. much of the plastic lands on these trash dump recycling isn't common here john miller government pays young trash collectors to gather both to use that you can use to build houses. every time i come here and i do like give some money to other people for example if locally all keeping our environment to gives me a lot of hope that even the future then that is what will it hold the planet that we we have done all we have protected from plastic with. us is pressed into plastic bottles to make bricks many women work for governments

business giving them the chance to on here own money. government say's their house is a cool inside even on whole days his business has already constructed more than 100 buildings using over 3000000 plastic bottles in the process. due to the coronavirus pandemic commissions of slowing but there is funding coming in from abroad we are revising different solutions on the way we can be able to start a company and we've also got it. some people who support for example. some funding for care for men that decided to support us and especially. to. show another guy has brought a few bars of soap to one of the women who supply her with the land grabs a key ingredient. before the coffee $1000.00 crises none of the guard charged tourists on hold. but another day are hardly any tourists she's expanded

had business on line i have a vision to make. it become a base i have a vision to make africa into it of running away from it to make it a better place. for my grandmother huppenthal see me know i know it will be productive. i'm sure she would it is good to be reminded that looking out to the environment you should well that's all we had for you today thank you all for chaining us so long for me thunder to be nobody here in kampala until next time. but for the el sun dress always it was a pleasure most of the show with you if you also remember you can find out more about of protection and sawston ability on our social media platforms i am chris sign you know from lagos see you again next week.
