w, happiness for everyone. human penises are very different from primates. we have a totally ridiculous romanticize view nature. and david, and this is climate change, regular sex, who happiness in 3 books, you'll get smarter for free w books on the me, the, the depending on where you leave the world can feel crowded at times, even out in nature. but in some cases, just a little careful planning and coordination can make a big difference in quality of life for all creatures. both big and small. welcome to visitation of africa. i'm chris alone, illegals nigeria high the grease out. nice to see you again. i am sandra to

interview here in compiler, uganda, and yes, today will be looking out a couple of ways to get low from lace. have a quick look out what is good for you install on the program. we will see how core points can be used to produce energy as well as the delicious lung, how forming og, a fish together help produce better food and visit other centers that adjusting to changes in mobility. did you know that fresh water mixed up less than 3 percent of water supply, but at almost half of all fish lead in fresh water lakes, rivers, foods, on wetlands. some people think what to little attention is paid to these fishes to the detriment or fish, the varsity of us report, texas to south africa, where walk is on the way to raise awareness on behalf of local water dwellers

the on a mission with a wet seed and an under was a camera, marine biologist, jeremy shelton from cape town, wants to bring people closer to the fascinating role. the fresh schools had fish and warm them of the risk of losing all this i'm passionate about bringing some of these amazing creatures and these amazing stories that i see unfolding underwater. up into the public eye, to hello and interest and why their friends lived up red or why they get these little bumps on that's not to spock. a curiosity with in south africa, the public about the because systems that have remained pretty hidden until recently south africa's cape region is home to many species of fresh water, fish, half of which are found nowhere else. but the presence of predatory invasive

species like bass and trout, as well as the use of river walker irrigation purposes, have placed many strain on these ecosystems. and the creatures which call them home globally, freshwater fish have become one of the most threatened groups of animals on the planets. a group of organisms that are becoming more and more scarce foster than just about any other on earth. and here in south africa, the situation is no different. according to a recent report, a 3rd of all fresh water fish globally are threatened with extinction. the actual use of cape nature are trying to save species in the western cape. their top is to preserve biodiversity throughout the province. they collect and analyze data, as well as work with local landowners. however, fresh water environments present

a unique conservation challenge. protecting fish and placing rivers is so difficult because that they're the long, you know, longest you know, systems and they've always upstream and downstream. and it's not like a ratio conservation where you can put up again, things and say, you know, the species we want stays on this side of the things, the ones we don't say on that side. and the information collected by k nature and other organizations has not been collated in any way. now the team of jeremy shelton's fresh water research center hopes to improve access to this vital data by a single platform. you've been bringing data collected by a range of different organizations from across south africa and making those data accessible for decision making for conservation planning. with the end goal, a beta conserving of freshwater bought every city and ecosystems. but for that to happen, it's necessary to raise awareness of the problem in a small urban park and cape town, facilitators from the french was

a research center showing students how to run a basic scientific health tech on the river here. and it's not just about the face. the project is teaching young people to gauge rivers health by looking for other indicators. species such as dragon flies and cat is flies when the idea is to show them just how interconnected this species are in this ecosystem generation. as a generation that's going to have to do these, this well right now. so we have to understand how the stuff was done, how we can fix it, and how we can, i think, doing these kind of things make you like, realize how important it is and realize how important it is for your mental health and how much you love it, and it just gives you more, dr. task isn't going to get any easier in the future. in addition to all the other threads global warming could also endanger these ecosystems and lead to the extinction of species before the end of the century. so where we're actually

sitting right now is one of the last lowland rivers in this part of the world that still has healthy, fresh water, fish population that still has enough clean water in summer to support these fish. and its places like that that i think are so important because they can remind us what a healthy river looks like. and they can inspire us to promote healthy rivers here in south africa. and throughout the world. as a semi arid country, it is essential for south africa to conserve its fresh water ecosystems and the unique species within them. all chris is a need adequate space in order to thrive, not just on the water bottle lunch too. but suddenly, humans often how be own ideas about what constitutes proper long to do through sandra. we're all to see an example of that in kenya. but after what seems like

decades of commerce of tons of vision, could the be the tables that turning elephant traversing humana sanctuary. a crucial wildlife corridor close to amble. silly national park. this land is communally owned by local messiah rising in the distance. mount kilimanjaro africa. the highest p, someone, county family have lived here for generations. he and many of them a size support, a local conservation program. they leased land to the program, so the elephants can safely follow their establish routes as hers. the messiah benefit by maintaining access to large areas of grazing land for their cattle. but last year, so much by sold their plots to an agri business, specializing in eval cato cultivation. one was jeremiah lush. it's

our right to move from the one on instead of leasing this cultural land to construction people because they, i think how can my quest 61 by you? i'm going to be paid and i printed out and you have a funding. i want to get to go to just kind of get another nice little human missing need. so if you knew agriculture, you can make a lot of money. but i've got a farming requires a huge amount of water critics. one, it could upset the balance of the local ecosystem and deprive them aside the livestock and wildlife of the water. they rely on gimme more stuff. i do work with farming where only benefit a few people. it will only benefit which companies like with and why that are worth billions for amanda. they can afford to purchase a car worth 20000000 kenyon settling. unlike them a sigh. who can bally afford for whole kenya's environmental agency has since

intervened and pulled the agree businesses license. and while the company has challenged the decision, conser and his face such cultivation could be devastating. dennis harvey, this is that we had a place in it. but there's another family come up with the same and the moment that polygamy is closed, we just count 11 institution and most for when you can. but it may never come to that. the company's lawsuit has been rejected relief for the conservation of hold on. and the holding there in that initial was most important. this is a will be fine. it national, one left. not the same way. people buttons like it because elephant defined a do move from that you lose to say to,

to my dental national back up there. and we have a few, a few investors within the area, what they're willing, told him not sending. and we have potentially the ruling protects, not only the future of the elephant and the moth i heard. it also proves that active conservation programs can both stand up to and win against economic interest . now that certainly encouraging and not just for the elephants, there are plenty of people will also tend to keep pop was open and fluid in cities to the believe about mobility could be more efficient, more sustainable, and certainly held. the next report comes from the german capital berlin. their vehicles may vary in form and color, but these multi wheels demonstrators in berlin have a common goal. they're calling for more car, free cycling, bruce,

more pedestrian zones, and generally fewer cars in the city. it's been for that i think there's enough infrastructure for motorized transport via and. # that's what we need is to make more provision for cycling. we need to fight for a greener berlin. know the liberal in government has adopted some new transport policies in recent years, adding cycle lanes and converting some streets into bike and pedestrian zones. c c with some activists say, it's not enough to improve the quality of air and life. they organized a petition to allow berliners themselves to decide the future. a city center traffic in a referendum. you can do all the 10s of thousands of people who live here could have a say in development shiana history in addition to things being much quieter and greener with more. but it would also be

a public space the paper could use and not just jammed full of harness which the dentist stays. so it's missing out on in many parts of the world, urban centers are already being transformed. the increase in online shopping in recent years has led to a drop in business for many retail stores. a trend exacerbated by the pandemic. a lot of commercial space and parking lot now stand empty. that's prompted architect to reimagine urban planning and mobility. lied cited most of those lines. it's important to cater to both living and working in the city. some get done. that's the only way to reduce the amount of commuter traffic and in penn, if a cat this former department store in the center of one german city was converted into an apartment building with shops, comprising a pedestrian friendly zone. and in berlin. this building was

likewise designed for people who don't use cars. it has shops, studios for artists, apartments, and offices to all designed for living and working under one roof. passers by can see inside. flower beds are also an intentional feature. cities like copenhagen have shown it's possible to exclude cars from city centers, reserving them for pedestrians and cyclists. only in the times square portion of new york's broadway has been converted into a traffic free zone. with st cafes designed by danish city planners. and paris wants to plant hundreds of trees on the shore and around the arc de triomphe while also taming traffic. and there's still a long way to go for berlin, but activists there do have some clear goals. what we want to do is we want to

create the world's largest auto reduced area in the world so that 85 square kilometers. and really it's about asking people what they want to do. environmentalists are also fighting plans for a highway running through the city to be extended because that would take the city a step backwards rather than forwards. thicken with mobility, cos sharon was held up a step in the right direction when it was 1st introduced on the largest scale, not so very long ago. now a group of people in another, german city have picked up the idea of taking a to on even more eco friendly level. here is this week's doing your big news? the c o 2 emissions from cars are one of the major drivers of climate change. so

finding alternative means of transport is vital for our planning. people from the germany initiative transition town bought are doing just that. the provide cargo bikes to any one free of charge. most of the bikes work with them. electric motor people reserve. the bikes via an online platform, and can pick them up at 6 different locations. and kind of for me, it's a small way to help combat climate change to have an alternative to buses, trains, and cars. people always talk about how hard it is to do something for the climate. but with this project it's actually really easy. people use the cargo bikes instead of cars when they go shopping or need to transport larger items. the members of the initiative are all volunteers and the bikes are mainly funded through donations. the 3 wheelers are now much seen and love sight in the city.

and tell about you, if you are also doing your best, tell us about this. this is all websites send us the tweet ah hash tag doing you open with yours to read those cargo blogs look really robust at a great way to give you lakes a workout. now another thing i like about the project is that it is community based and operated. you own a co op rica, we've seen quite a few examples of just how much smoke will pretties can accomplish if you need crease. one of those in either course, the world's biggest producer core beings, but the reason much profit actually goes to the core foremost. although the market for plate, it will make a woman school party fit to bring more balance into the business model. and the weeping incredible results,

happy lead to the environment is profiting to typically considered the domain of men. there used to be no role in the cocoa harvest for these women. but now they're farming and producing themselves. juliet glossy found it a cooperative with women in her own village in the southern part of ivory coast. its aim is to produce cocoa being more sustainably, and to use them for making more than just chocolate them in that i was. this is it almost nothing is thrown away. you see that we start with the sticky pulp which is never used in cocoa production. we add flavors and spices to it, which is unusual and innovative. the women use the juice from the palm to make products just flavor, cocoa beans, and the husks to make tea to 40 local women who have joined. the co operative are now earning an income for themselves and their families

not feel power. my part, i used to only work occasionally that people didn't make much money long and i'm a bit since i joined. the co operative that's changed. i can and the equivalent of 4 heroes 50 every day. i'm happy because thanks to the co operative, i'm now independent of the majority of ivory coast 26000000 population work in the agricultural sector. 40 percent of the world's cocoa comes from the west african country every year, around $25000000.00 tons of shells and bean husks end up in garbage dumps are more, are burned. producing more goods from is good for the environment and enables families in the village to earn more from their harvests. we focus. this is key for fairport. i believe we need to increase the value of our cocoa and i want to give it more credibility overall. with my approach, it is the women who are involved in this aspect of their inclusion will make

a real difference here. they will improve the cocoa value chain. yeah. something bad until now was the province of men. it julia glossy is making a delivery to a small shop and be sure that sales the cooperative products, the flavor to cocoa beans, spice mixes, and t. the german development agency, g. c, helped to establish the contact among the organizations activities as supporting sustainable initiatives to secure farmers livelihoods across africa. she can be a role model for other women when it comes to expanding that coco processing and developing new products. so julia, coffee has an apartment and i'll be shown in the kitchen. she cooks up her products and experiments with new ideas. the inspiration strikes when i'm in my kitchen. when i start one recipe and idea for

another one pops into my head. i don't know why it just comes naturally. and juliet colossus idea of getting more from cocoa pines is catching on. the ivory coast government is in the process of building a bio mass power generation plant that will turn the country's abundance of production waste into electricity. now that is what i call efficient putting organic waste. good. our next report offers another take on how you can accomplish 2 things at once. if you put your mind in. but in this case, it's not about using was produced energy, a couple of enterprise and people are gonna have formed a way to make something treat even with the help of a simple organism. these mangos, a looking good joyce meant there has been treating her trees with organic

fertilizers made from gay. she grows herself the plants and now less susceptible back to black sport diseases and their food is tasty. a, to changing their lives as to get water. we see that is good and it gives us much more food and much more healthy ones because we are no more using the chemicals. many farmers here in south is that gonna rely on at the official specializes in pesticides. so did joyce mensa, until she heard about an equal aqua clinic system, developed in the voltage region by to west africa and entrepreneurs. each of the $24.00 pools on their farm contains its own small ecosystem. these aquatic plans plans that the fish know from nature. so because use them voraciously,

and they are very healthy. now, is significant the part about the aquatic plants, because that is what makes the alga we produce unique and powerful. because these aquatic plans provide the bees nutrient from which the algo is call to veto civil serve a dual purpose to grow all gave a fertilizer and rates fish for food. and frederick come fast as the waters clean. i really don't have a problem getting concerned about does this if occasion and so degradation in the region, the business partners spent years developing their idea. we have seen that soil be in to read it using on wholesome nutrients for, for farming. and it's causing a huge problem for the environment as well for the quality of food. but it had to

be affordable enough to make going organic, attractive to farmers. the fertilizer which sells for 50 percent was a roughly 7 years sense inexpensive. yet. many farmers still need persuaded if i'm in cooperative in a nearby village, has a serious problem with sol degradation. matthew de, when new talk to members about the organic method, but many a skeptical. they mentioned that difficulty of transporting heavy canisters to water. the plants once a week, by the way, new insist that the pros outweigh the con. you log blood dummy. yeah, throw the, come across the wash into our what i'm going to switch off. it's a while. the, the fishing, the water, and also people do doing the thing what the do live in polluted by doctor teeth of

the father. so it is having a lot of problems and difficulties in the environments. and we do have lindsey's where some crops don't come. i thought because of the comic house was not far from the farming co perceive marine biologist called yachts he has spent, he has conducted his own research. he believes the al serra eliza has the potential to turn ghana and africa as a whole into hopeful organic agriculture production of argue that is integrated with fish a very cost effective way of producing sheep and red d available for laser, for crop reduction. ah,

it could in future be on alternative to the constant conventional to lays this out. the light joyce meant is completely sold on a new approach. she started producing mungo juice since she now have more and better quality fruits. at the moment. the juice is only sold locally, but if all goes well, she hopes to be able to expand our market in the future. i'm afraid the time has come to say good bye. we hope you had an amazing time with the program. and of course, be sure to join us again next week, for now. i am sandra tree over here in compiler. you gone to the ticket and the been so long sandra. and to all of us out there, if you have any comments or one to find out more about environment issues. take, i'll also shoot me the channels. don't forget to send in your feedback. will always happy to hear from you. this is 1st elim signing up from lagos. mm
