some of my sources just because they talked with me facing the guns, can change your life. people need to know what is happening with gardens of truce socially 3rd on t w ah ah. ah, planet tribes on balance. but since the industrial revolution began and the need to 18th century, humans have been encroaching upon every kind of land to build factories, offices and homes. activity is endangering many fragile ecosystems around the world . and slowly leading us to the state imbalance to be on the coin deal. let's look

deeper into some aspects of this problem and find out what's being done to course, correct. hello, welcome. i'm some of that. ok. let's start on you to come island dock. to read in pulley catholic off the be of been gone. so now did by brackish water, this ecosystem boss. so for rich biodiversity of plants, books and animals located just a 150 kilometers from the metropolis of chen line. iroquois island used to be a popular weekend to get to work. but climate change, forest pollution, and government apathy out endangering the lives of the people who live along with the ecosystem may help protect. ah ah, for farmer rama multi. nothing is how it once was. thanks to increasingly frequent

extreme better. psych loans regularly flood has fields with salt water and then there are the extended dry periods that cause his crops to fail. his hovers are further compromised by animals, now emerging out of the woods because they have nothing left to eat there by near la monica with less water in the nearby forest in foxes, come in to the village. burn good. since i was in a photo healing this day and did our crops, we're leaving a lot more remote, he lives on it up, come a small island in the pulley currently in south east in india. it's the country 2nd largest brackish lagoon after chile got the lagoon is a rich repository of biodiversity, and it is home to rare animals such as the sport built pelican and the black stalk . the lagoon provides the entire coastal region with an important buffer against the increasingly intense cyclop. that also includes the nearby regional capital

janae. but the islanders fees, particularly acute difficulties due to climate change. not only the farmers out affected local fishers are also under pressure. the long dry periods have seen traditional grounds disappear. seeds sociologist, gideon, balancing am selling part of the the cutler come legal, who live in the southern massage to frederick officially at the state of thermal. not whenever you went on this new shipment for decent people were fishing and an automated annexing planet. and along the better in the grade level, the island than me, but not to do it because there is no water in it for it to little for only rocky, one or 2 feet bianca. it's become mostly for the modular museum scope for fishes. let's go from here to ship. mm. a lot of people have already left off the 160 families who once lived in drama. mm hm. these neighbourhood just 40 are still there. a local community leader told us that for many catching shed,

fish is the only way to survive. although not as the mining lo, i don't want to let us know if we don't make enough money. how long could christina, or, you know, number one, we have to take care of our children and families. people. we go out on monday, 4 or 5 in a blue metal to collect shelter. lawn de la ward w, and won't, it won't. but it's not just shellfish that people harvest from the bed of the lagoon some time ago. they started digging deeper in search of shell limestone. that's millions of years old. on some days they head out in a fleet of 50 boards, mining several dozen tons of the storm from down below. a practice with disastrous consequences for the local ecosystem explains marine biologist, my to mortgage in the mining suddenly it occurred valinda. when people look for the stone shell, fuller dig out several halls. i then been with the guardian litigant dollar, that is because the children are only just below the surface on that bill. on the sims, this another window water then becomes more turbid. fish and grabs,

stay of eating law abandon the lower groceries in the bottom. would even the prehistoric shells are sold to local factories. they use the limestone in the rock for manufacturing, everything from sugar and soap to cement and lead the product. it's an awful predicament for local climate change is forcing them to look for other sources of income, some of which are destroying the ecosystem. and logos also play a vital role in conserving the lagoons, biodiversity, any can. they wanted to leave to learn that there will be no one to speak up for this. you got to stick with us. and so we are looking at how people can continue to stay in marketing and talking about the challenge and up to face and how they can diversify to ryan ocean, who went on even when i'm with the offering a very popular one idea is soft eco tourism visitors from genay are already of frequent sight, even if just for a couple of hours. and the lagoon is also famed among bird watchers around the

world. a chance perhaps for those living by the lagoon and an especially welcome bon for the time after the pandemic. like it'll come. island germany's forests are under severe. st. trees are dying at an alarming rate. an indian wand research or working in the country is on a mission to save its forest by making them more resilient to the impacts of climate change. the woodland equivalent of a stethoscope here in one of the warmest areas in germany, researches are taking the pulse of the countries forest. today, i want to test how the, the peach tree sampling is responding to different light intensities and also to stimulate it. enrich theo to which very likely bill will be there in the future.

therefore, it is very important for us to know when this sapling is growing on the soil. whether it is it has enough water to do that level of photosynthesis. indian bone research summit saw has put together a team of young scientists from various countries and disciplines. the group called sylvania se to the ancient roman god of the woodland. and worldwide, some excel houses, those woodlands under threat also from sprawling urban is asian and rapid population growth. including in his native india. we have to make our forest covered there in india intact, but also the high quality forest which means highly dense forest. natural forest are getting declined, but the plantations and the plantation. coffee plantation, or eucalyptus plantation, or acacia plantations,

the rubber plantations. these are increasing and go home and sometimes also consider plantations as a forest. so you can see that sometimes they all, we have 21 percent forest in india, and that's the huge amount of compare if you look the size of india. but out of this 21 percent, there are huge amount of plantations and high quality forest which can provide heavy to, to, to endanger 3 species like tiger or other animals is actually low active deforestation to make grateful, farmland and timber production is one reason for the large scale loss of woodland and then there is climate change which has taken a heavy toll on our force here in germany to, according to governments study the proportion of unhealthy trees. and the country has risen to 80 percent. and that in turn makes them vulnerable to pests such as the box used. and normally barbie doll is

a part of our ecosystem. they are always there. but nowadays they are kind of destroying so many trees because trees are actually weaken 1st by drought. and then when someone is already weakened then the 100 ability to disease will be increased and that's like human. at the same in the trees, germany is home to almost 12000000 hectares of woodland 2 thirds of which are used by the tender industry. spruce, pine and beach trees are grown in mana cultures. trees that are particularly susceptible to drought conditions. the reset is a planting new saplings in an attempt to keep 3 mortality and check with moderate success. this little beat tree never got off the ground. when you know that that 3 species is dying, then however we should blunt it again. but in my opinion, we should be very careful here because the trespass is also has

a capacity to do evolved. if you dig out completely from the system, then you can loss the species. but at the same time, you should try with the species. witcher may be neal to this environment, but not invasive. native trees are being rapidly and permanently displaced by invasive species, such as this poisonous perennial plant american poke wheat. so how can reset his find out which non native species can be planted in german forests without endangering them the landscape gardens of cause, who a palace fitted trees from all corners of the planet? many of them over 200 years old. my recommendation is that we can try to study the exotic species which are already here for centuries, rather than you know, bringing some new species from anywhere in the world and planned them the american, red oak for example, has integrated perfectly in central europe. it cuts well with heat drought, and rising concentrations of c o 2. and it's adapted to local conditions without

displacing native species. here the red oak somehow get adopted to the new condition. so any and that went to one direction that they can actually survive under shape and beer. so the red or ears are also growing foster. in this commercial timber forest, amid can read x were planted among european horn beans. that competition has encouraged the us to grow quickly and relatively straight resulting and exceedingly high quality timber. it's 10 point, high timbered ease, actually, e e, renewable resource, and it is an eco friendly resources. we should have a goal that the requirement of the timber of our region should be fulfilled by the trees which are cultivated in our region. ok. the direction as far as the research is, hope they work will foster

a revival of germany's ailing forests by mapping. and measuring the way to greater resilience against climate change. now global warming has increased the risk and severity of droughts worldwide. the desert state of roger's town in india is no stranger to these conditions. the changing climate is having an ad was impact on local, went to tissue, and as causing grief problems for farmers was livelihood, depend on it. to count on this, a local initiative has been distributing traditional fruit trees. seedlings in the range of rogers done in northern india, temperatures here regularly shore above $45.00 degrees celsius and the heat waves are getting longer. a consequence of climate change says she comes under gianni. for years, the sociology professor has been alarmed by the excessive loss of water in this

desert state. scarcity of water is a big concern of beds are because they don't have groundwater because it is in very deft and also are not good in quality. it is not usable. and as far as the end is concerned, every year of year to see you, minimum rainfall in this area, she and zoomed gianni didn't want to sit back and do nothing. so in his spare time, he travels to villages to give away free saplings of ancient indigenous fruit trees . these plants can thrive in the heart climber today or the car. oh, today he's visiting the school at bunder on village. he urges the villagers to take care of the trees so that they grow to provide shade and fruit much stops after

plantations. but generally people can see that better than we did blunt vision. it's all that, but the, the, me say that no, no, i responsibility starts from that point. so i requested them to consider that no other responsibility has in is, and we have a little all siblings as a get in my middle family. big money with the limit these trees will give us fresh air to breathe and for 2 years we've learned that trees need to be treated as members of our family. only then can they say my planet child rotors that i will to day, the binder on villagers are also being given a tree each to take home once planted their water with waste water. she em cinder gianni named his organization for meal you forestry after the idea it was founded on it all started back in 2003 when she em cylinder gianni was a young sociology professor working at a college and because the few trees on the campus grounds were almost dead along

with his students. he saved them and replaced them with saplings. from then on, the students cared for the trees. the next step came a few years ago in 2013. they started no lament mr. do snow for us, then. we started plantation over there. you can see busy this exact date of land and having more than 3000 vehicles. oh, well then when i 100 different, when i did it is most davis is seduce, none put us in any education institute of and i just on need madonna. she comes under gianni, pays for the seedlings out of his own pocket. he often ends up spending a large portion of his salary, while his peers focus on advancing their careers. he invests his time and energy in familial forestry. the dedication sometimes makes things hard for his wife karita. she often has to look after their 2 daughters alone. my money is often tight

at the end of the month. that's proved a sacrifice for his family, but it hasn't been in vain. familiar forestry has planted more than 3000000 seedlings in roger sunny villages. these efforts long went unnoticed, but in june, familiar, forestry won the united nations land for life award, thrusting shams under genie's organisation into the media spotlight. recognizing efforts to prevent to certification world wide, it's bestowed by the u. n. c. c. d. i seen many activities that you're donate a tree and then somebody else takes care of the tree on your behalf. but the idea of a new year for us is i see a tree as a member of the family year. will cultivate that careful in the tree. therefore,

the survival rate of the trees in that region where familiar were history planchet . it's significant, significantly higher. he's hoping the award will attract donors and financial support. he sees the indigenous fruit trees as crucial to stop arid desert areas expanding and keeping villagers from malnutrition. and he points out yet another benefit. his work brings food, beerin, these are groups, biodiversity, it increases biodiversity also because these 3 is at red butterflies, small insects, while in it, earth, even boards. so by this way, we can increase and we can protect our bio diversity. also she em sunday gianni has another idea that he's trumped up for a long time planting trees among roadsides in india's sprawling cities. where space

is scarce, urban populations are in need of clean air and more vitamin packed fruit, as well as to you. now, it's not only the biodiversity on land, but biodiversity under water too, is at risk. the marine ecosystem is sensitive and can be gravely influenced by human activity, as we've already seen in many instances around the world. on portugal schools, researchers are investigating how c grass meadows can be protected and what advantages this has in terms of carbon dioxide storage. what conservationists see grass meadows are heroes of the ecosystem. home to many different species. they grow in shallow coastal waters and harbor. huge benefits for life under water and on land. that's why

team of scientists is studying the meadows of portugal, southern algarve coast. to day the team is preparing to dive down to the sea grass beds of $34.00, almost a lagoon to collect sediment samples from barbara corker. 3 we can be made with out of koran in the federal in a time of climate crisis. carmen santos research is more crucial than ever for months to come, she and her team will be coming back to the lagoon. each trip usually spends several days. the field work includes mapping the approximately 10 percent of wetland that's covered by c cross, which is one of the lagoons most valuable assets. they are very efficient carville scenes, which means that they can sequester and the store

a huge amount of carbons in their biomass. and in the say, the one behind where they roll. and this is very important because when sequestering their seal to and the carbone that is store in their sediment, they are a helping us to mitigate the climate change. scientists estimate that coastal ecosystems like c grocery store 3 times more c o 2, then forests at no cost. ready ready sharman santos and the team from y'all golf, sent off marine sciences. want to find out exactly how much of this blue car is stored? india formosa they've taken about 80 sediment samples over the past 3 years. they slice up the samples and then analyze them by burning them, the scientists can calculate the amount of carbon they store the team. hope that

their research will convince policymakers at c. g ross's need more protection because of their potential to absorb you to their insides could also help on the local level in coastal development planning. and on the global stage, the findings could aid efforts to reach climate neutrality goals. see grass meadows world wide on the threat from the incessant traffic of boats and damage caused by angus in europe. the scene said, since it sixty's we have lost one 3rd of the secret males that we have. one of the major threats to see grasses is dead, the amount of 4 of bolt that we have because go 1st the it travel very fast with just create said beat waves. that he, it's the markings of channels and day it roads there because the lug there while

the settlement was there, some large under secrets are growing. water pollution also threatens see growth species around the globe. stricter legislation has served to improve water quality . andrea formosa, which in turn, has helped to see grass bates to recover. and that's benefited one of the lagoons, most iconic inhabitants the see horse. their numbers have dropped by more than 90 percent in recent years. primarily due to illegal fishing and the destruction of the habitats protect to zones and artificial structures like these have been set up to help see horses need something to cling onto. i jones is the driving force behind the c horse project. he's studying the relationship

between the animals and see grass as well. those areas are highly productive in terms of food and as a, as an appetite. and even if the sources don't use it directly, it was in the indirectly as it produced the food that later on. they will feed on like small frames, the small and people in all the food that is also provided by the ponds at the research station where george palmer works the it's feeding time for the c horses that a team breed here. palmer has been studying them since 2007. some of them will be released into the waters of re a formosa. it's a starch. hopefully it won't be a futile measure to support what's left of the current population.

all of them are considered as flex ship species, which mean that i species that represent there. i bit that so few what we are studying seahorses and trying to figure out what's happening with their environment is that bio diversity is decreasing. you should be thought to be going to be graded, that will affect all the by diversity, all the animals that leaving that same abbey, that the degradation, not the sea grass ecosystem threatens other wildlife 2, like these spoon bills at low tide. they feed on the meadows of 3 of formosa above all carbon santos, and had chain planted. seek ross in the summer. now they're trying to track it down to see if the plans survived. though cameras can't capture them. divers can spot them within naked eyes. he will vase doing this and it's great to see that they it works. so we'll see how it happens in the winter. and hopefully, sir, it goes well and we can see plaza growing and his grading from

across the globe a conservationist sa, focusing on replanting c crosses. like here near the spanish island of my georgia. it's tedious work. the young plans are sensitive and the growth is slow. but recent studies point to a reversal of the decline of secrecy and europe assigned that protection and restoration efforts can make a difference. you wish the health of our planet can be gauged by how rich our biodiversity is. each organism has a role to play and contribute to this dynamic health. if we don't abuse our rules and committed to protecting our ecosystem, the earth, when he'll and thrive, i'll leave you with that thought and see you again next week from all of us in india and germany. good bye. and thanks for watching. mm.
