entrepreneur at a specific goal to build the best optical instruments in the world. ah, did he know that devices bearing his name would one day feature in the moon landing through science into new realms? the rise of a global company with 175 size starts to maintain pond d w. ah, ah, ah, well, couldn't think label 3000 hunted survivors on the maybe as hyenas, loved by anyone. seated clouds,

making rain in the united arab emirates, and hope for peace in columbia. why? one former member of the fog as ditched his weapons for paddles for more than 50 years. columbia was entangled in civil war. it left 200000 people dead and more than 8000000 displaced in 2016 the government and the falk rebels finally signed a peace agreement. the falk laid down their weapons in exchange for promises of political participation and better living standards. now, 6 years later, what is the state of things in the country where the promises caps? hello i. when he's out on the water potter

forgets all of his problems. it's as if his boat become one. just like in the old days, as a former fark rebel fighting government troops, he was often out on the river. pato was actually his cover name. it means duck. he knows virtually every stone here. today, he shows tourists around the former war zone, part of an initiative aimed at integrating former rebels back into society. not out of the embry, i'm a be sure we always say that we've swapped our weapons for a paddle. i don't know who seen it, but this is one of the best examples of transitioning to piece. yes. bowen? i love my how to handle the piece is always better than war. the empress had, i'm a heart only a crazy person, which was wor, over piece. i wound up at 1 am we locally that is that yamaha like the regular path . the beauty of the khaki to region is breathtaking. it was previously a dangerous red zone. pato explains how former farmers took up arms as far

guerrillas and began fighting government soldiers and paramilitary groups. here in this area, 5 years ago, the gorilla signed a piece deal and laid down their arms. since then, the tourists have been coming. come here and experience in person with people you 1st had witnesses to that incredible history it's. it's incredible. the rafting project is one small success story in a sea of problems. many farmers were happy to see pato rehabilitated as the fark were fighting for farms interest. but others here still call them a terrorist. pato spent time in prison for planning a bomb attack. many still want nothing to do with him. and while he's out rowing, he says the current president is busily undermining the peace treaty signed with the rebels. the look is donald popella,

what was agreed upon, sounds good on paper battle and but it's not being implemented off. one of those, no lot in the government is not addressing the root causes of the conflict. there's a lack of investment in rural areas in education. the problems that led to the conflict have not gone away, but it was a scope of kennedy and i don't really see. the unrest is also escalating a yellow. the fox, former beast lies in idyllic surroundings, closely guarded by the military. but the area is unsafe. other armed groups have emerged. drug gangs are fighting paramilitary groups and other glimmers. some are also seeking revenge on former fark rebels who are now vulnerable. your lane is husband is one of hundreds who have taken up arms again. 300 former fark rebels have been murdered so far. the peace process is on shaky ground.

this is jill fleming. when i look at my son and feel sad, i thought the peace process would bring change. at least that our family would be together again to nothing more than 50 years of civil war have left their mark. the peace deal has not brought peace. instead, the power structures are more complex and the outbreaks of violence more unpredictable. many of the victims of that violence come to civil rights activist, seduce dowdy garcia to day. once again. she's accompanying a group of farmers during a visit to the authorities and the provincial capital armed men drove them from their land and they need accommodation. such cases are common in kochenda. oh, isn't butler fuzzy? no, this isn't a peaceful country. these things happen every day. people are just driven from their loni. very for, from here. often land disease to form drug trafficking, or cocoa plantations. it's not clear who is behind this attack. there may be

guerrillas, or government forces, or maybe former fark fighters. the farmers have lost everything, even that m. all people came all dressed in black with mast faces. they said we had 24 hours to lena my laddie, but i'm gonna be nemo, with both of you since the peace deal, other groups have come. they drive out entire families lose. 30 gossip is also taking risks by criticizing the state for its lack of action. $171.00 activists like her were murdered last year, and more than 70 so far this year. we asked who she think should be the next president. angela don't come answering questions like that has a price. i mean, it would cost us our lives to say openly that our president is not safeguarding our rights simple, but nothing has been done. we continue to live with the same conflict of the same name as if there's been no restoring of human rights that are there as far as him advantage of the month. so is there a chance of

a new star ex rebel pato is hoping that columbia's future president will take the peace process serious that the president will fight social injustice and poverty. in the meantime, please heading back to the water out rafting with the tourist. he's where he feels free. you get the content that i didn't you just forget the rest of the world though you forget problems with bank accounts and sofa went on everything given left. ah, pato has no plans to take up arms again. he says he is committed to peace once for all the amount of rain that falls from the sky depends on where you are on the planets, the season and the local weather patterns. in the united arab emirates,

the amount of rainfall total is only around 78 liters per square meter per year. in tropical colombia, meanwhile, that figures for hire 3240 latest climate change is making such differences. even more extreme studies at the potsdam institute for climate impact research have shown that put simply what regions are likely to become wetter. and i read regions dryer. in our next report, we learn what people in the united arab emirates, so doing to generate to more rain under smart is busy fitting his plane with an unconventional pay little salt cartridges in the hope of making the clouds crying, disconnected to the electrical. he's a rainmaker, and today he fancies his chances. the 57 year old swede makes one last check before take off. he has just 3 hours to get his charge into the clouds above the arab

emirates, a challenging task. the clouds seating valuable, unusual from person like me because i spent most of my career trying to avoid clouds for the comfort of the passengers. where us now are fly madness starting out inside of the cloud. but just start the edge of it. and it can be quite disturbing. lift off from the desert into the clouds, with hazy visibility and a temperature of $35.00 degrees celsius. it's a mission with an ambitious goal. water is scarce in the emirates, but consumed in abundance and glitzy metropolis as like to buy the construction industry is booming, and every year around $800000.00 people moved to the oil rich federation. despite rising temperatures and falling ground water levels, crop cultivation in the emirates is becoming increasingly difficult. santa

r hummadi thought he try his hand at farming when he retired. 5 years ago. the 63 year old grows fakes pomegranate maze and dates on his small plot of land on the outskirts of to buy. he fetches the water from a well 300 meters deep. every year the level drops further. he can water his fruits for a maximum of 3 hours a day. one month. he tells us that many wither in the blazing heat and it cannot be sold. santa al hummadi often looks to a higher power for hell of a little further, but we pray for you must have hunt them for the almighty to provide us with water. the doom without water man is worth nothing so much for sure. at the national center for me to urology in abu dhabi, scientists are trying more down to earth meth and also

a sharpie. augment al kamani presents the current weather data to the team. and venture is a forecast as to which clouds will appear when and where, which will be. ready with no clouds are by no means rare over the emirates, but far too often they don't bring rain with their for propeller plains. the scientists therefore shoot sodium and potassium chloride into the clouds. the salt particles bind water become heavy and rain down. interestingly, the scientists say their activities don't lead to less rain elsewhere. they say the results from 15 years of practice or encouraging. we has done recently a study about the the enhancement of rainfall. and it has turned out that the cloud seating actually in the u. e. increases the rainfall of about 23 percent on an average. on best situation it can reach up to 35 percent off

and harassing off rainfall. heavy clouds are gathering in the sky of the golf. it's important that things now proceed quickly. you'll look, man, i'll kamani radios on this month and gives him the coordinates of a promising cumulus cloud. the pilot picks up the trail and steers towards it. timing is everything now. there's so many things going on at the same time. i have to fly the airplane. i have to navigate the raw, the cloud so that in time and space you're in the correct place. but you must also navigate in relation to the actual cloud formations. one command, unders maud fires full rounds, slowly turning as he does. so. in the control room, the meteorologists are already looking for the next cloud that he can head for he

seeds up to 20 in 3 hours. success often follows very quickly happy moments for the whole team convinced this technique works and i'm not saying that there might not be some other method that is conceived in the future, which is possibly a better method. but at the moment, i believe, and what we are doing. oh, rain is often seen as a blessing in the desert, where the phenomena have fascinated solar al hummadi since he was a child. whenever he can, the farmer from dubai, films reign the devout muslim, consider it legitimate that man, not a law makes it no roman as will allow him. yeah, the koran doesn't forbid science hall lexia. on the contrary on it's important that people find ways to invent things that have benefited humanity by le insomnia. in

the past, home, people didn't really think too much about clouds netherland. much up to day to necessity. we have to look for ways to get more water on john dunn's williams, a room above critic say the emirates multi $1000000.00 seating program is unscientific and that its apparent success remains on proven claims rejected by the head of the national meteorology center. he also points out that desalination seawater is many times more expensive than cloud seating. not only because it is success and we encourage yeah, a lot of people will be involved with the world methodical organization or all the other, the outward of this project will be, as i'm good for them. many countries know they are to try to approach us and get benefit of this year. out of this, this project on this mark climbs out of his plane listed, but happy. he fired of 40 of his cartridges successfully seating full clouds.

today was a rainmaker. yes, i can proudly say so under smart sorties might not be able to stop climate change or resolve the lack of water, but they can at least generate a little more of that precious commodity rein. creditors that beautiful, fascinating and dangerous. and people have always lived alongside them in namibia. these animals a tourist magnets that they often represent a big problem for many farmers. most predators now live in reserves state run national parks or protected zones run by local communities or to rest organizations . for a long time, many of these animals have been despised and hunted, my p, including hyenas,

the skeleton coast and northwestern namibia is home to brown hyenas, also known as strand wolves. i know is a very important in the ecosystem and i've got a very important role to play at lakewood jade as the bad guys. and that's what people think about i enough in general, who if we're giving a roach, you'd always like are the ones who can do nothing about it. but if, if i must come of lindsey, we are killing though we have been green though. owens, an assembly with us and we are now living in a nature reserve among side wild animals. we can earn as much with them now as we do with goats and sheep, so i no longer shoot them immediately. the hyenas are perfectly adapted to the extreme desert conditions, an icy cold ben gala ocean current

biologist mc favey has been studying the animals here for 7 years, and it's still fascinated by them. she's the science coordinator for a tourism company that supports conservation projects in the region. i've got a lot of respect why nashik was to survive as a large scavenger in the days it, it's, it's no mean feat m and it was a re social. when the out they, they sonnet g. so you just see the single are you not out there, but when they back at the dean when they are and cups at the been there is a lot of social going on days. a lot of time spent with the cups playing with cups grooming the cups. fairville discovered a network of dens off the coast where packs of sand wolves gather to socialize and share their catch. they carry carcasses dozens of kilometers through the desert to fi to their comes in the dens. oh scavenger, and was like these prevent diseases from spreading, making them important for livestock farming. but

their reputation as predators means they're mercilessly hunted. oh oh people we put out poison food, lions for liquor to cheat us and in the hyena suite b by catch of that just people are afraid of fighting. i. so people don't appreciate the value of brown. i know us and they skate of 9. i so people would, would throw stones at them. they would chase thing with course. ah, ah, 7 years of drought have ravaged the region. the animals here have to travel ever greater distances in search of food. this means they cross paths with farmers like a manual gallery, rob who are now losing more and more livestock to predators. that

is again, 2 places. and he'll quote, the ego couldn't reach it last week went to lions, june sixty's goals 8. and she deal going to farmer in i looked it up as a result of the lion attack guru rob. last half of his heard a sizable financial loss for the farmer. the government compensates farmers after such incidents, but at a rate around half of market value went to go to the wild animals from the desert. the lions, the elephants causes a lot of problems. we'll get graded, our quotes are one t, it's getting well, we don't gained anything from having wild animals here. they bring us nothing but horde mark. ah, he went to a hole in our livestock, our, our income. how we earn our living, the hold work with our whole near his stall. gary rob has discovered fresh hyena

tracks. animal brown hyenas don't hunt goats, but the tracks could have been made by spotted hyenas through a more aggressive species, globally liquid conagra, where if the government doesn't take care of the hyenas, again, we have no choice or google play the dumb. cuz i mean, we have to shoot them. that's the plan on the mazda. ah, when he was a cattle, her phineas casa owner, also killed hyenas in lions. today, he protects them. he's a ranger, a member of the unable community reserve. since the ninety's farmers like casa ana, have joined neighbors to create their own nature reserves, which now cover about one 5th of nearby as land mass. last night, elephants rated neighbors vegetable patch. so for the next few nights casa, ona will stand guard. despite the problems they cause the farmers still want to

protect the animals. you're like, oh you know, i think things have changed book. i mean i my younger she yet for back in the day. if a hyena took one of your animals out, you hunt it down and killed it open, going yet pullman via or the today we live in a new world. i'm with laws that protect wild animals and good you. how can we get? we're mon, within b, and if we take care of them, we can even live from them. so we should try to live together, work in no bible. got to hoop it, but we do better then we come back to local you one, then ohio. farmers have agreed on limiting livestock, so that both wild and farm animals can co exist. since analog populations increased attacks by wild predators have gone down. lou, back on the skeleton coast arranger informs fair bay that an elephant calf is missing. the biologist fears the worst. she finds the cat half way to a watering hole due to the ongoing drought. the mother couldn't lactate.

there is no hope for the young elephant. it's part of life out yet if you wonder if you live. but she was born yesterday. so it seems such a waste toys not to ever life out yet. yeah . so i love oh animals. and you do what you can. but the ancient asian life mosquitoes. this is part of it date this bottom of life. long periods of drought have made the fight for survival, even harder ear, hyenas, and other animals must search for new living environments. but with the help of researchers like mc fair bay and community based conservation efforts, there still

a chance in the media for people and animals to re adapt and for july out of the desert. i oh oh, but i am a global team this week are global team is john malloy, m e from 10 years. he lives in d cooney, a district of campbell. he has full brothers and the system with my faith dame. i like watching, but i doing bike and watching cartoon visiting friends and mickey
