don't know who to go the field, the magic the discover, the world around you subscribe to the w documentary on you to me. the mm. the welcome to these new edition of what environmental sho, equal africa. i am sander to interview here in compiler, uganda. not much of it will cause people to sit in species with the help of fans or
12:31 am
even bring a think on the most back to life. wouldn't that be wonderful greece indeed, it would be sandra, there are people already trying to do just that more shortly. but 1st a be hello to a view of from the here in lagos, nigeria is good to have you with us. here is a look at some of the topics on the program will meet in general. octave is to work in hawk to reduce illegal animal traffic. and see how you're in germany, kenya makes function that we dogs from left to look here how to use social and helping to ensure a clean supply of watch out for the food children you get put in. and the legal trading endangered species are a huge global business targeting everything from right, those to exotic reptiles and pan glenn's around half of all seizures of puzzling
12:32 am
skills worldwide in 2019 could be traced back to nigeria. but it's, that fact is many people resort to hunting wild animals in order to provide for their families and not just here, but in a number of african countries. the got enough with keen red captured the hunters walk off with the plunder. these young men regularly go out hunting with their dogs to sell what they catch at the local market and use the money to support their families. there's nothing unusual here, you know, area. young people knows that the restrictions on hunton rarely enforced, but mark wants to reduce the loss of wildlife. the vet has been coming to this
12:33 am
rural area for the past 5 years, p and the men here have an arrangement founded on mutual trust. i trust for them free of charge and in return because i try not to make extra money as much as possible in return when he gets when he cut an animal, for example, the animal has b v that y'all put the can, it does, maybe it's use that for them usually don't live is maybe today, but the summer on the give them and they call me today to have a young tangle in for the vent. it's a valuable find to get them good money on the black market. but they decided to give it to mark of law instead for him, if i'm marking. yeah, we give mark the animals because he always helps us. but if it weren't for him, we would have lost most of our dogs by now. because of the kind of work our dogs do . sometimes they'll be running. my mom hit his chest on a tree or fall into a trap that we set for the animals. and that can injure them. what is your issue
12:34 am
about? so once we tell mark you take care of the dog and tell it recover much while it after the full hour round trip event had to his surgery on the edge of lagos, it rest examined the young animal in china. pantaloons kills are thought to have healing properties, and the meat is prized as delicacy. missouri plays a key role in illegal traffic and with this model in africa, the small patient doesn't appear to be injured, but it will stay in force care until it regains that strength. it will need special milk to get through the next few months. the vet finances everson with his own money. the snake recently underwent an operation. mark awful has no fear of the reptiles which has earned him the nickname, the snakes man of li. gus is one of the few conservationists in jury are openly
12:35 am
fighting against the trade in wild animals. it often feels like lives in battle. i know i cannot relate. i know i can rest of my orders. i know i helped shalt more. i knew i had to do more. i knew i had to push more. i know i have to see more animal local markets in the outskirts of legacy of a huge range of exotic animals. mock awful. i says officials hardly ever check on what has been sold. he tries to explain to the traders impact that the legal sales have on local wildlife bush me sells well here. abandoned like this is worth $20.00. there are monkeys, large lizards and small crocodiles, insurances as they sold both dead and alive, the traders remain on the ted. i have been able
12:36 am
to convince him when you get these babies, this should not kill them. they should not throw them away. this will call me and i'll come and pick it up there, but it's not just a trade in bush meat and illegal traffic in that impact in bio diversity. desmond, magical to me, is one of the best known environmental activists in our area. it says 95 percent of a countries forest has disappeared and with its a huge echo system that is now last for ever. the scientists are very, very clear about it. we've answered one of the fastest extinction rich ever known to this planet. definitely ever known to mankind and where on rumbling the very web of life. because each of these creatures, each of these animals, they have a role to play. that's why mark of law believes every animal comes when those and it can have recovered releases them into a wildlife park or somewhere deep in the jungle for mock, for the sight of an animal back in its natural habitat,
12:37 am
is the greatest reward possible rescue in animals are releasing them back into the wild, helps to protect and then just this is what us we've seen. it requires a long term commitment and education that is right crease, which is why is spent is also exploring other control wash methods to resolve fishes. and perhaps even to bring back some that have already died out. can you imagine the long golden doodle reappearing again? or the woolly momma is not even a root was 50. this is find out neat, kurt, who's technically been dead for 22 years. you may have guessed it, kurt is a clone, and he's the 1st wild horse ever successfully clone. which makes
12:38 am
him quite a big deal. and he wasn't just an experiment. scientists are now cloning, endangered species to slow down the rate of bio diversity alone, and even improve entire ecosystems. in one word, it's just wow. and obviously we want to say of a species that we can. but how exactly would that work? and how realistic is that? welcome to the very weird world of wild clones, gene banks, and bringing species back from the after life. with the loaning has been controversial around the world with legitimate concerns about us playing god or creating endless copies of species that wipe out bio diversity.
12:39 am
but kurtz purpose is the exact opposite to bring diversity back to his population of wild shrivels good horses. so how is a clone, which is an exact genetic copy of another animal? supposed to bring back to bio diversity, me all 2000 shrivels keys. horses alive today have descended from only 12 wild and festers to clone curt. research was used to unique gene that was frozen years ago. why don't other my last from the pool? they used to domestic more as a surrogate mother. kurt is not the 1st endangered species to be cloned. there's even been a clone of an extinct species. but with limited success appear in the an ibex was clone 3 years after when extinct using an old frozen skin sample. researchers impregnated over 200 domestic goats. only 7 became pregnant. one needed to term,
12:40 am
but the baby died minutes after it was born. less than one percent of wild clones ever survive. and the lack of research and access to wild animals makes the entire process especially difficult. with curt, looking healthy scientists, tope, he will be the 1st clone to directly increase the genetic diversity of a population in the wild. no longer reacting to crisis. but we're getting out and being preventative. that's been novak one of the scientists who cloned curse and has been pushing the idea of cloning for conservation. the idea behind it is that we can use cloning in multiple ways to help endangered species, either by increasing the size of their populations or by using it strategically to maintain genetic diversity. let's take
12:41 am
a closer look at that. increasing population numbers can help species recover, but scientists only have a limited gene pool to choose from. but the method being used here is to add to the strength of the and a pool by bringing back genes that would have otherwise died out. this could make population more resistant to the effects of inbreeding and disease, and even make them better at adapting to climate change. biodiversity of loss is an extension threat we face since the 1970 species populations have declined by around 60 percent. today, we could be losing up to $150.00 species each day. geneticists around the world have taken notice and are collecting and preserving whatever genetic material they can in lamps, zeus and gene banks. tomorrow is too late. i mean, today is too late for many species. i'm sure. so, i mean,
12:42 am
storing the dna is like a last resort before they're gone. so at least we have the genetic heritage. ad lewis co founded a british gene bank run by public universities, museums and zoos. their consortium has collected over 40000 samples so far over 1000 zoos and research institutions around the world are working on assisted reproduction of wild animals, including 4 projects devoted specifically to cloning for conservation. the race to conserve genetic diversity is on and cloning may well save some species, but with costs and long term effect, still unknown. conservation is saying it's much more sensible to focus on protecting the bio diversity we still have but until the move, generally in the benefit nature,
12:43 am
it is best to stick to conventional solutions. what about, for example, giving a 2nd life to the tons of used clothing and textiles to africa by the industrialized emissions? not all them a sold or given a weight. in fact, a high proportion ends up on landfills or incinerators, dont be a more eco friendly option. ah, yeah. rosen rose a printed fabric when textile companies in europe dropped designs from their product lines. the material is discarded, burned or supported to africa where it ends up in places like this. open markets in none. yuki in northern kenya for fashion, innovator, sidney amaica. it's a gold mine. this passion is to give new purpose to the rejected curtain fabric. maker takes the cloth, he buys to a local tailoring studio. there his fashion designs are made into sustainable
12:44 am
clothing for environmentally aware clients. people who are asking questions, people who want to wear something that has a story behind it. and people who know already a little bit more about about the fashion industry about the text. i always make this creations don't come cheap. a suit cost nearly $400.00 euros a jacket, half the price is that only tourists and can you can afford or western customers that visit is online trap. but for ecological mind, discerning shoppers and make this fabric up. cycling idea is both smart and sustainable. and how about you? if you are also doing your bit, tell us about his visit our website. oh, send us the tweaks. hash tags doing you oh, we shall yours to raise hers. they say you are
12:45 am
what you will include, what you put on your fits most of the twin, brilliant shoes produce every year, a made of lead or think practice areas which will have a sizable environment to put free leather production involves the killing of a letter to make one brilliant animal. synthetic materials tend to very low recycling rate, making them long term. but they're also issues been made from natural resources such as plants and even harder much areas. these shoes are made with stone, with flexible slate themes tear apart, typically made from let them they belong to the sustainable luxury brand is next to
12:46 am
for munich. sebastian teas, this forswear brands, found. his family has been in the industry for 6 generations. but even for him, working with stone was one of the middle and yadda, hundreds of millions of years old. all natural in each pair is a patient, because technically speaking, it isn't superior to leather because some of the shoes are a bit less robust. so you shouldn't wear them and siberia at minus 40 degrees celsius, but they're perfect for normal day to day purposes. and the process of making stand flexible enough for shoemaking starts with huge blocks of marble or slate. using a special technique. very thin slaps. this one off, which are then viewed onto a flexible material submitted was invented by burnin based company, wrote glenn, who's the best in teeth, work with flexibility. the stylus man. i included the money and the stone becomes flexible. if you make it very, very thin, we're talking less than one millimeter thick, and then combine it with something,
12:47 am
stabilizing them on this list that can be fiberglass or cotton. please on both muscle, either will stabilize the slice of stone and hold together the stone particles. even when the slab getting bend on the stone is then exposed to heat and cold alternately to make it even more flexible. but that process isn't trademark secret . by the end, it can even be the next tissues. there are also stone belts, sunglasses and banks. but their own limits to the usability lifestyle as, as when it comes to stone, t shirts, jackets, in fact it gets complicated. we've experimented with those kinds of items, but other materials offer different readability and range of motion by under them. but it's also going to stay expensive and labor intense, so it will probably stay more nice than math market. sebastian
12:48 am
t has been looking for a nation again again, he had tested using unusual materials issues like that are made from 10 to fungus. a tree parasite tool from the very end, but also coffee mill, wood, and fish can have all been tested as potential sneak materials. and my father developed the 1st pair of compost, double shoes back in the ninety's. so natural material have always been a big topic for team i guess. nowadays, so much more is changing because people are more aware and that of course leads to more innovation in this area sooner than the natural rather to vegetable tend. never talk in. so even less prominent parts of tease issues are mostly natural. so on the not has the stain ability is
12:49 am
a must for us and not just the way the media is propagating that term now and woman . the bottom line for us is that if it isn't sustainable, you can't call it a quality more luxury product. it's kind medicine. now, how it seems the best in t's will keep walking the initiative line in his shoes made with stone. 10 years ago, the united nations declared access to clean water and sanitation is a fundamental human right. but in many parts of the world gets him said drinking water still is most simply a matter of on this up. according to the un, over 2000000000 people are still lacking those basic facilities. that's a truly shocking figure, crease on in all too many cases, the water people do have access to is contemplated. it is a problem, seeing here in uganda, but also other possible africa. what we need is a simple and sustainable solution. oh,
12:50 am
been good. this is a knock the volley refugee settlement in western uganda, 130000 people live here. 6 years ago, dean and i've been to fled the democratic republic of congo after rebels killed her husband. in knocking bonnie lake is the source of water also for drinking for livestock as well. but the water is full of germs. every year, 20000 children under the age of 5 die in uganda of dire real disease. one major reason is that they have no choice but to drink dirty water. heat kills germs. so dean and i've been to boil the water, she fetches from the lake. she has 5 children and i think we will drinking water using charcoal, and if we don't have it, we use firewood. otherwise we would be drinking very dirty water. that comes at
12:51 am
a cost to the environment to make charcoal trees are cut down. forest also had to be clear to make space for the settlement, but there's another way to provide safe, clean drinking water out of the room, g and henry of the run to sufficient a social enterprise that makes automated low cost filters. this setup costs $1200.00. the money was donated by somebody in the united states. you did supply enough water for about 900 people out of 130000 in the settlement. but it's still, let's start there. what does that is to our field that is from the lake? you can see this is a really know what from the lake and then after you press it through the filter, this is there is out that we get out of the wound. he lost a brother to colorado. he drank contaminated water, access to clean water is a human right to sufficient aims to deliver what the state fails to provide. it
12:52 am
also developed a small water filter for home use. use this grenade. to purify the water. we have 2 buckets, that bucket contains the grenade and then the la bucket is a reason for this step forward. so they forward down the bucket. and then the whole filtration happens in the greenwich when the water is get through their granite and only see what that goes into. there is for, for that that shows people how to put together their own water filter. the granite needs to be cleaned every few months and then it can be reused, dean and have been to isn't treat if you filter water this way, you no longer have to boil it or by charcoal,
12:53 am
which means lower emissions and costs. and there's another advantage. every time we saw an institution filter, we train that women around the community to make sure that they have access to safe drinking water in their homes. we can also entry other people or also make these what are fools as then so them an extra income for them. so how to be woozy and henry diego installed the 1st large filtering system using granite in central uganda, in a school near the capital compiler. several 100 pupils now have access to clean water and fall sick. less often. this will take safe, hasn't have anything so has told me a lot cause i'm suffering will pay for dave and stuff i would say for you. then i'd like, i don't even go to school to sufficient. quantify the impact that use of filters have on the environment in terms of trees protected, n, c o 2 emission
12:54 am
t. yeah. we serve mostly over at least 240000. so about new york said for each field. learning got 3 separate plans whenever to sufficient installs a large filter system in a school. the teen plants marine ga trees with the pupils about a 1000 in all over the past 2 years in the marines as absorbed carbon dioxide at an amazingly high rate. 20 times the rate of general vegetation but to sufficient aims to do more than just replace trees that have been filled. we need to begin writing these ideas over protecting the environment into the main. so provided that to young, the tradition in the event and min african countries is that you've got to read to purify what we want to change that tradition. totally knock ivana dina. and i've
12:55 am
been to, had since acquired and started using a water filter. she put together herself my, you know, the water from the filter is clean and usable. you know, i'm very surprised that this is the same also, which was originally dead. cows and people have contaminated. my thanks to the, to sufficient filter. she and her family stand a better chance of staying healthy with less effort and at lower cost. however dirty, the water in the lake continues to be what a good idea. hopefully it will inspire others of course, africa to launch similar initiatives for the sake of people and the environment. jennifer gate junior again, next week for another exciting edition of equal africa. it is a good buy from the sender to over you here in compiler, uganda. by sandra in the meantime, you can stay in touch with those, and so we should be dea,
