its members fight for races, state route, by white supremacy. what we're talking about here is not only disorganized violence, it's not only terrorism. it's apologies. founded over 150 years ago. it's repeatedly died out, but always been resurrected. the ku klux klan starts may 11th on d. w. ah ah, welcome to global 3000 bi. catch how over fishing is threatening. the last remaining stocks of shocks and raised in the mediterranean carbon capture per solution to climate change or a dangerous adventure glass waiting for the rain
10:31 am
spot on weather forecasts for farmers. storms, droughts, france, and wild fires over the last 50 years. the frequency of extreme weather has risen 5 folds. one of many shocking figures from the world's meteorological organizations, latest report. over 2000000 fatalities have been attributed to these events and weather related disasters are also inflicting a growing financial toll. the damage wrought world wide since 1970 is estimated at over 3.6 trillion u. s. dollars. climate change is accelerating the frequency of extreme weather events. but advanced early warning systems can now alert people to potential disasters. and foremost, can put such technology to good use to as we see in india,
10:32 am
like millions of other farmers in india, ravi potty, dar wonders every summer. when will the monsoon come and how much rain will it bring? lavish gilbert, can you please and totally dependent on the monsoon burnham holidays man lavish with their money onto him without it, we can't do anything on our farm. kilman fossil was at them. they say by the short b as in we can start sewing seeds until the monsoon begins. debbie wake up in climate change has made monsoons, unpredictable. without the southwest monsoon rains, there will be no harvest for more than 100000000 farmers in the country. robbie patty, dar lives and janet poor a village in the state of madhya pradesh for him. the harvests aren't just crucial
10:33 am
for his own livelihood. the 38 year old and his wife and gaeta sent their son to a boarding school and it isn't cheap. they want him to have more opportunities than they had only had enough. the farmer also takes care of his elderly parents. solo. the clinician with unpredictable monsoons would jeopardize the harvest. isn't media video really, ravi potty. dar needs to know when it will rain at least 30 days in advance. that way he can plow early enough, so the seeds are already in the soil when it starts raining. the countries where the reports weren't precise enough. so he sought help elsewhere online or will well be 30. i thought i searched on google and found one of elena sort of reaction as articles. later i came across your e mail address and wrote to her, she answered and sent me her forecast. britishness next angle you on forward given
10:34 am
elena, so of the atlanta is a russian scientist at the potsdam institute for climate impact research. she developed a simple model for predicting monsoons in central india when they occur. and when they end, the project is financed with money from the international climate protection initiative. rule analyze data, and they found dall critical point on indian subcontinent. if we compare door temperature one in east and gas doing 0 and another one in los pakistan during the year, we will farm said these are temperature course intersect, device one source. it's an onset of monsoon and central india. it's another type is it is doable of monsoon. if unbelievable, fine robbie party dar relied on the researchers forecast and fairly well. the monsoon withdrew in the middle of october more than 2 weeks later than normal. but
10:35 am
elena saw of yacht cannot predicted it would do so 70 days in advance with the farmer planted soybeans that can survive and extended monsoon period, and it paid off his harvest was good for 30 july. the 3 that did it, but he's soybeans with stood heavy rainfall. credidio they suffered no damage and i can have a good harvest. i was able to achieve that by choosing these soybeans and relying on eleanor's forecast and give it a chemical for logan as it and if your dilemma quo, but how many farmers in india know about soviet kenneth forecast. and how did those who do find out about it at this workshop led by the agricultural university in the state of talent. gonna farmers are learning how to survive in this era of climate crisis. they suggest that farmers use more climate,
10:36 am
resilient seats and utilize more efficient irrigation methods. consultants also inform farmers about elena sort of yet can, is forecasts by a what's up or email. there are more than 5 and a half 1000000 farmers in the state of tell and gonna this is the india meteorological department in pu ne, the government's whether agency with their predictions of when it will rain and how much they help save lives. like they did during the maha, roster of floods in july of 2021 though 250 people lost their lives. $350000.00 residents were able to be evacuated. monsoon whisper, elena serv. yackino in germany is very thankful for the work of india's officials, especially for the data on air moisture and temperature that helped with her forecasts. sir of yackino is widely respected among india's monsoon experts.
10:37 am
her predictions are welcome, but only as an input to the media. ology officials own models for predicting rainfall for they think publicizing them as a separate monsoon forecast would be problematic. a bit of a be confusion among the you, the which one to pick. so we're pick gender, do no one single output and agenda that one single output. i'm sure to know. there are many really nice and we need i said in many lean us in the contribute this type of information during a pause in the harvest robbie party dar has a zoomed date. hello annie. hello tony. how are you? it's so nice to meet you. i would like to tell you thered, ma'am, are you a dealer ones when we return sort long done without majority. so i have been serious and aid survived that in and micro outside sales. and my, i am about to earn my living. so would, so want to hear this. thank you ma'am and
10:38 am
can you but while the monsoon forecasts help people adapt to climate change, they won't solve the underlying problem. as in lean problem of climate change, his english and m. o, the neat to reduce the emission and a safe our blank all together. this is our main goal, and it's our, it is from civility in front of our children with robbie party dar and his soybeans have done well the season as they did last year. with the help of a scientist in germany. the unpredictable monsoons are a bit more foreseeable there is a constant stream of carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere from below. the main source is our burning of fossil fuels, such as oil, cold, and gas,
10:39 am
primarily for heat and electricity. some scientists say climate change can only be curved by removing c o 2 from the atmosphere and storing it on the ground. but is that feasible? we know we're currently pumping too much carbon dioxide into the air. but wouldn't it be amazing if we could find a way to suck it all up and send it back deep underground. turns out this seemingly cutting edge idea to capture carbon is actually decades old. the u. s. navy use capture as a way to clear the air inside submarines and space shuttle that filled up with c o . 2 from the breath of soldiers and astronauts. modern carbon capture technology is basically this c o 2 scrubber on a bigger scale like this plant in south india, 1st to polluted is sucked into the industrial system through internal fans after
10:40 am
being cleaned for impurity as it is transported towards the absorption plant. where it is cooled and then sent to a liquid solvent that absorb c o 2, which is then move further into the plan for processing. while the clean air, which is mostly only water vapor, is now released. the seo to his later stripped out of the solvent and can be used to make other products like so the ash oh, i did use the heat, greenhouses, or even as a fuel you can capture c o 2, right at the source of the pollution like the indian factory where the bond coal and strip the c o. 2 out of the emitted small and diverted to the adjoining. so now i factory. this is called point source capture. hundreds of pilots and small scale facilities and over 50 large scale plants around the world are currently doing this . then there is direct air capture where big fans sucked large amounts of polluted ad directly out of the atmosphere. 15 plans are currently doing this worldwide,
10:41 am
but experts say the potential is huge. the better thing to do for the environment of course, is to prevent emissions from ever entering the air. so companies are now working to inject carbon deep into the ground in a process called sequence creation that can preserve their indefinitely. this is considered carbon negative, as it actively removed carbon from the atmosphere. we know from the arithmetic of climate that we need all of these things and we need as much of them all as we can get to the next 30 years. have to start removing about 10000000 tons of c o 2 every year. currently, direct air capture companies worldwide capture $9000.00 tons of c o 2 per year. but at the moment, it costs over $200.00 to remove a ton of c o 2, to direct a capture to scale up the industrial company said that need to be better financial incentives. these can come either in the form of credits offered by the government
10:42 am
in exchange for removing the harmful substance from the air. all went captured, carbon can be traded at a good price on the market. does. it could also come from taxing companies that allow their carbon dioxide fumes to escape. in the absence of large incentives from governments, all capture and sequestration companies are collaborating with, paradoxically, big oil companies. what do you need to take restoration? you need someone that you can store the carbon dioxide and one of the best places to store that is owed oil and, and where the owners of those asset, hamby oil and gas companies. well, that's a very strategic rate for them to go down and use their existing asset at the same time, putting the captured c o 2 into the ground, builds up pressure and makes it easier for even more oil to be extracted in
10:43 am
a process called enhanced oil recovery up to 88 percent of carbon captured and sequestered at the moment is used to extract more oil. and this makes investing in carbon capture financially viable for these oil companies. fossil fuel companies can continue to admit, and we just suck up some of their pollution ways. there are many other problems with fossil fuel industry in addition to greenhouse. yes, there is local air pollution. there's water publishers permanent justice. and so finding way to extend the life of fossil fuel is essentially finding a way to continue poisoning. to keep the technology going, we need to ensure a clever combination of incentives for non oil companies. taxing polluters and pricing for you to hire sugar is a key ingredient in many favorite traits. that's too much is bad for our house and
10:44 am
its production to also causes damage to the environment. one young woman from cra in ghana has moved to the countryside to help locals learn new and better methods of sugar cane farming to audrey as darko would never have guessed that one day her work clothes would look like this. she grew up in garments capital. arkwright and studied business administration. now she lives in works in the countryside. lighting. how are you doing? it's been an amazing journey, but one that has been a roller coaster as well. and our journey started about 4 years ago, where i came here as a researcher and also asked a tourist just in the hopes of finding more about what sugar cane is all about, what are the benefits of it for communities within gonna ship if it's
10:45 am
a major crop in the south eastern volta region, and it's here that adrienne darko has set up a small production facility for a cannick fertilizer. that's ok. the chief component is sugarcane waste, which accumulates in great quantities during harvesting. farmers often don't know what to do with it. first, the waste, just dried that charge and processed into fertilizer. the name of a product here is 7, tara, and that means to make the new again. and here at testing poll, our goal is to empower pharmacy to grow food organically and also improve their soil health using more accessible and available organic. so blend or input during farming workshops are held at the small model farm next door. 30 farmers belong to
10:46 am
the network. here they can learn about sustainable farming. not just growing organic vegetables, but also that healthy soil is good for the climate because it stores carbon. instead of burning air sugarcane whispered out on farm. we decided to a use it as organic blend, which helps improve the soil fertility. so with this aspect, i believe that as a farmer, i have a middle role to play, which is fightin. climate change. this is our main focus. it's mainly farmers with just a few hector's. in the land who cultivate sugarcane in ghana, they sell the product at the local market. it's often used to make sweetener and alcohol. 40 years ago, sugarcane production was still an important industry in ghana,
10:47 am
but all of the bigger factories have since closed down. one of the principal reasons was miss management. andreas darko wanted to find out more about it. she specialized in agricultural sciences and decided to go talk to farmers directly. i realize that the culture was different. they had been used to conventional agriculture making use of a lot of chemicals and how they planted, how they prepared their land, burning crop residue in the fields is also a common practice. despite people here feeling the effects of climate change. at 1st hand, there's been a change in the amount of rainfall and harvests are diminishing. the fires put a big strain on the already severely depleted soil. nature and supposed to work with us and to better our life, that theme of human big rating it on a daily by burning it by destroying the biodiversity and engaging in bad practices
10:48 am
. um that put, put um that put the phone on the floor in, in extinction. is, is just frustrating for me because we should be appreciative of what nature gives us. this community is located directly on the avo lagoon, an important wetlands. the canals are used to transport the harvest and growing sugar cane itself requires a lot of water. it's an area rich and biodiversity, but the use of chemicals in farming is damaging the environment and there are fewer and fewer fish. phillip thomas low and his father are noticing that to they own around 5 acres of land and have a big family to support all the more reason for them to rethink things may be north africa. as i google, my fear is that if we continue applying chemicals on our farm lands,
10:49 am
our children will suffer. and they'll find it difficult to cultivate sugarcane in the future. then go via wanna, audrey a star co, occasionally takes a break from the countryside for a trip to accra in gone is cities. urban farming is a new trend, hastened by the pandemic. ha, audrey knows paulina from her university days. the software developer is one of 150 or so city dwellers who have their organic fertilizer delivered to their door. i pluck some feet and prevent across the you with that and it was like, i mean i plugged about 15 or so of them and profess you with that and i have that feeling that a key. i am eating something i planted like it was that good. the countryside might be a world away from the city, but adria darko enjoys her new rural life. she's the only member of her team to work full time for the project,
10:50 am
which she found it in 2018 together with other students from the university of akron. they also developed the fertilizer in the university lab. she wants many more farmers to become aware of its benefits. it would transform their mindset about, seen waste as a resource and giving them more knowledge and more um, urgent zeal to pass it, pass this information to their children and their grandchildren. andreas darko knows how to get her points across and has gained the respect of the farmers. now she just needs to find financial bathrooms in order for the sap on sack a project to flourish in its full potential. oh, with staying in africa, we go now to to new zia, where fishermen are in trouble toward his according to an e you study, the mediterranean sea has seen fish stocks drop by
10:51 am
a 3rd over the last 50 years. the vast majority of native species and now threatened by over fishing visitors entering the town of r c. s. will notice a work of art that looks more like wishful thinking than the reality on the ground . precious you fishers and tunisia bring in a decent catch these days. many simply abandoned their boats and young people are leaving. but miss linden was looking at the current situation. i have to say that there was no future in fishing. i can only tell young people to consider a different line of work training job fisher these days is a waste of time. you can't make a living theme of you at the moment. if you have a room biologists from the national institute of marine sciences and technology and fox are looking for reasons behind the dwindling fish docs. the prime suspect toxic algae, which repeatedly turn the see water read. climate change high water temperatures
10:52 am
and rising phosphorus and nitrogen levels provide a perfect environment for the algae to flourish. nater, species such a c, brain suffocate and are dying off in huge numbers. on her, i will not take her said his best. we discovered that a toxic species of algae is responsible for this phenomenon. although indeed enough in 2019 there was a very high concentration of the algae species called korea bravest full. on the need of all astir, said cassandra, in 2020 it stocks this like he loa or i need to be blood enough if or so but this year that increased again in eva eva, it was live us yonder luck, especially in the area around the port of galvez, when you are the father, this to make ends meet with fishers, frequently resort to illegal methods, such as catching fish that are actually too young and small to sell like this
10:53 am
swordfish. at the fish market in fox, you'll also find cartilage in his fish like raise and sharks, which are in fact endangered and protected species. let us in there are more and more sharks on the market here in the past. there was little demand for cartilage in his fish, but in the meantime, people hewn sparks have become accustomed to them. and demand is especially high among younger people that release the go button. on the bench here saw edi, a neat ultra belfy are trying to reverse the trend. they want fishers to stop catching sharks and other endangered species. there. part of the project med bycatch, which was launched 2 years ago and began with extensive data collection. oh, nice though good. we've collected a lot of data up key which will used to make proposals on how to reduce unwanted by
10:54 am
catch up of endangered species. and we're luck up for all of tenicia, the vin, the up lot, all the thought, the law thin, easy need us rebel, see, has developed a good relationship with the fishing community in the port as are these he tells them about the research results and provides insights into the concept of close season. this is when the different species lay their eggs and can't be fished . oh, the evaluation of the samples makes it clear that fishing in the mediterranean must become more sustainable. one solution would be using different fishing methods. trawling can be replaced by long lining, which involves long plastic lines with sardine bated hooks attached at around 6 meter intervals. met by catch plans to recommend this type of fishing line fed up
10:55 am
with long line in and hook line fishing. laura, the fish, i have the choice for larry barella and then the fish that go for the bait wouldn't get caught the, the can in the others don't. it's completely different to trawling in am, which basically catches everything in the scene that was a hiccup. us at deborah mcgrew last at ben shoemaker is an advocate of the long line method. but today he can't go fishing. the wind is too strong and the waves too big conditions are simply too dangerous. so he heads back to the harbor, preserving the ecosystem in the mediterranean will also require more fishermen like las had been shoemaker, to switch to alternative methods and not only in se, but across tunisia and along the coasts of other countries bordering the mediterranean sea.
