a 77 percent every weekend on d w. what's the making the headlines and what's behind them? dw news africa. the show that the issues in the continent life is slowly getting back to normal here on the streets to give you enough reports on the inside. our correspondence is on the ground reporting from across the continent. all the trends doesn't matter to you. t w news africa every friday on d, w. a hello and a one welcome from compiler. it is nice to have you with us, with these new edition of equal africa. the environmental show brought to you by

d. w in germany, nigeria, channels, stevie and mtv right here in uganda. my name is sandra. 3. nobody. and with me is my for jose from nigeria. yes. hi dear. i am chris the loans in ohio state. and as always we have a lot of interest and report lined up for you to be include in one about fancy bikes from uganda. also on the show, white eating insects is good for the environment. paul environmental activist in spain want to eliminate to prostate from the mediterranean, and how to make the farming more eco friendly. thank strong at the nigeria. let's start right here in uganda. ginger district wants to become the vast e bike city in all of africa. and what a code of the cruisers already rolling through the city, developed in europe on india. they are intended to make transporting goods easier.

and of course a. so the traffic in the region becomes more sustainable would take, you know, on the right every morning, he's too young, his children are his 1st passengers. walter o'neill is a bike, takes the driver in the city of ginger some night kilometers east of the ugandan capital of compiler. a few months ago he treated in his old like, takes you for in a free cruise e in e by developed for the african market. his passengers attribute, you know, at least come see them. we see now let me good it in the go design was if you're using the power and knowledge using mental cedar throughout the customer, africa. susie was the brainchild of you game person. a teacher from no than jim. more than 10 years ago is he was travelling across africa. he began thinking about how transportation on the continent could become more sustainable. many people

would motor bikes, which are expensive in high emissions, and he realized something else to kids. vandal, if you africa, has lots of solar energy units in the huge mobility of europe has lots of ebay. so why not combine e bikes with africa? solar energy to make a cargo bike? that's one could really help. so how ability problems on the continental mortgages will dream of the problem? to help make his idea a reality, he brought in e bike specialist from germany on board. together they designed the 1st prototype and realize the e bags would need to be adapted to the needs of african customers, including the local, brought conditions to stay. i'm not sure that was a pretty big challenge when it came to designing the bike. the conditions of the roads aren't necessarily like what e bike riders i used to hear eyes like in some of the buy companies that the

industry tends to rely on may not be available in general. why did they mostly carbon come volumes, architects and most box in the wheels and arrange forced frame styled in the look of a more expensive motorbike the after cruise. he was designed to be robust in appeal to its clientele, and it's 600 years. it's quite a bit more affordable than most e bikes in the plan, also called for micro credits to help finance the purchase. patients partner in berlin is part of hero cycles, the world's largest bicycle manufacturer. it's based in india, thanks to advice and la labor cost 0 can produce the african uses more affordably in draw on cross financing with other product lines. for hero is an idea that makes sense. africa could become a major market. whether is e bike, texas e, bike ambulances, or water delivery bikes?

the 1st 100 of free cruises went into operation in uganda. a few months ago. it father the n g or base in ginger, that's coordinating the a free cruiser project. the 1st batch of the bikes already attracted a lot of interest in you wonder energy prices have been rising for weeks. that's also helping to make e mobility more appealing. this comes as an alternative, as at transport or mobility, tentative that people can use instead of motorized transport lay. kaiser's like motorcycle is the fact that it is functional. it is able to carry 100 kilograms of of cargo. so it is function. it is very fast. it is of course, fancy fab, you run small service points to handle maintenance in, to swap out the solar batteries mechanic just from gaia joined the project early on

in now has a permanent position. it tries to save as much of his paycheck as possible. i want to stop and they want to skew. my fellow friends and young people don't dare. i wanted to get them on how to repay. i beg. how'd you bear it? bates. walter, one in also comes here to swap batteries. when business is brisk, he's here twice a day on days when he can make it, he's out of luck. so returning to luncheon, maybe if the battery is not there so you can read it using light because there's no light. so you have to still viewing the d 5. your team also stay in regular contact with technical designers in 1000000000. should the bicycle lights kit a separate battery? does the frame need any update? bit to teams awaken on refining the next generation of a free cruises. the next 640

e bags are about to go into production in india. they will be headed to toggle vinny picking of fossil tanzania, and other countries. soon a few competence are slated to be produced in uganda. york and passion is happy that he's africa cruise. the project is taking off and full to annette and his family. the e bikes have made the day to day life that much easier. this wall, that him self upgrades out doesn't a love to take a ride. students from robot in morocco, abuse a cavity is not only vice solar energy. it is an unusual project for the country and the team behind it sets their goals on international compositions. so let's check out these weeks doing a big ha, it's time to hit the road. mm. at speeds of up to

a 120 kilometers an hour. in a car powered by the sun. this solar race car was designed by 16 engineering students in morocco. their goal is to develop technologies that one day could be used in ordinary cars and eliminate that climate killing emissions. pick it up in a while and there was a v i. d came up in the context of expanding our years of renewable energy. and especially now that our country has decided to go grain in many areas. not got that about the project allowed us to put our theoretical knowledge into practice and then got that on. the team is now optimizing their 2nd prototype, the aaliyah dora, to which means gifted the sun in greek. the team from rabbit spent nearly 2000 hours working on the vehicle. the chassis is made of lightweight carbon fiber. it's

batteries and tell him at true system have also been improved to visit about offer letter. this is the 1st invention of its kind in north africa and it meets solar power standards. we've collaborated with companies that provided funding. and now we're hoping to bring others on board to help complete this project and may be launch a new one more or less than a little pause. you will have the 1st a plan to enter a li adora to in some major international competitions. oh, and how about you? if you are also doing your best, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us a tweak hash tag doing your bit. we share your stories. what a great idea. changing the topic now feeding the growing population worldwide ease is such a difficult task. box, baby,

the answer pioneers all over the world are developing sustainable product made from the lobby of blocks. so jeff lies in germany. it seems there is just one sticking point. standing in the way of success, governmental red tape. it could be so easy. reading harmless little flies to lay eggs which turn into maggots with a voracious appetite for food waste. and the larvae can be turned into tasty, high protein burgers. good for the climate and the environment, though it's not quite that straightforward yet. but 1st things 1st. welcome to the love shack of the black soldier, fly, a creature by the name her media. in lupin's heinrich cuts is a superstar among fly farmers. he'd love to expand his farm and be part of the insect protein revolution. and the larvae are up to the job. they have

a racial appetite and gobble up everything from food waste to animal excrement, and true glutton fashion. their body weight increases 6000 fault and just 3 weeks. the problem is, you regulations forbid the farmer from feeding them food waste. when were last snow? yes, mark. if you're a pioneer doing something new or you're going to really enjoy what you're doing and be enthusiastic about it, what often you do, bumping the challenges in a lot, especially in the case of disruptive innovation, as you might find yourself facing regulatory hurdles. avi jensen. this is why they're currently fed on pink feed was they will dish this up here is a kara, which is great for our young larvae. acora is a by product of tow for production for yesterday. this isn't less. but there are more session solutions available, like in kenya, we're handling can't says also set up a fly farm with indoor plumbing, a rarity in many poorer districts. a startup has set

a portable lavatories and selected places, but the excrement is later collected and mixed with food waste a blend that's perfectly suited to the black saunter, fly larvae e. loudon von gunch. while the larvae are then fed to pigs and chickens aloft if we've had this system up and running for a couple of years now with 0 problems, and no cases of animals getting sick, i didn't leave office. michelle toms before waste can be used this way. the e once proof that as a safe product as his own clark that we know that we need to deliver empirical evidence that it safely hunger synthesis wookey feel. but the e u is basically making that impossible because they won't grant us an exemption. snohomish naming off your greek, so we're being asked to provide evidence while being denied the means to do so. it was the community guys gave him. we can only hope that will be granted exemptions at the local level. and that the you doesn't put a spanner in the works the whole from the, just on the course attrition her college. for now,

i know chances ground fly larvae can only be fair to dogs and fish, but it all goes well. larvae could be the next big thing in the food industry. will have a look at farming, which as a reputation for being a lot of hard work. but you don't have to do all the work yourself. why not in versed in eco friendly farm in a woman in nigeria came up with a brilliant idea. see for yourself. ah agriculture is a big business in nigeria. whether you're plucking peppers or harvesting tomatoes, the something for every once table and taste. but farming is also cool and become in tech savvy. now, you can even manage acres of land using nothing but your mobile phone. and rebecca, i'm old, is the brains behind the operation for causal and just come on,

go and show people could for their basic needs for their home. but currently we have a class of people wanting to be part of the fun for me for the program. currently we have over 10000 subscribers. rebecca, it's actually a computer science graduate. she wanted to find a technological solution to form an inefficient after seen her mother and other families battle for many years. she originally founded way and more forms in 2016 to solve the post hobbit waste problem. during code it should witness many nigeria struggling to buy food. we found from your phone program was launched the 5th called greek of the covey. 19 funding was created, the support and youth interest in cultural. and we'll also create empowerment for the masses, especially dudes and ensuring the end of a studio from the photo gallery from rebecca, who found that the african wealth initiative with other young professionals to

create the program that allows everyone to participate in forming and with the benefits i put in because my morning walk for me having a reliable team do something and i get the benefit out of it, which was lovely. i tried to find from your phone because it is that try me is the for me, i can easily from my group from one p and then i'm getting my hinkle or need and if it's still been in the market for remote for i mean is booming. and rebecca is making sure that quality control is a top priority. for instance, she and her team for keeping the use of pesticides to a minimum. terry house, sorry analyses. what analyses responding i wrong and the climate and the diploma condition over please. that helps us understand the balance in di, environmental,

already. so that's how shows us and neuro the kind of an organic process to follow . so what we do the whole test on thing for productivity and that's how you go farms to market in the 21st century. rebecca and her team have made it easier than ever to become a farmer with a swipe of your finger as that of a fickle on next report takes us to the mediterranean, the sea of the coast of sol done europe. another africa is littered with plastics and other debris. that's about the pores in well above all, it's bad for marin life in spain. volunteer divers helping with cleanup efforts. shorts now did see horses. soft corals, neptune grass groupers and a wide variety of seaweed inhabit the mediterranean waters off more. seattle in southeastern spain,

with 73 kilometers of coast in the biggest salt water lagoon in europe. it's a paradise for recreational fishing. but many fishermen use lead thinkers. they can end up on the c bed where they pose a threat to marine life fung, i'm afraid castle them based. let's take the case of a fish feeding on algae growing on a piece of lead when that fish approaches and begins eating the algae. it also ingest, so lead meant it, it becomes part of the marine food chain, the small fish me eaten by the bigger fish and so on. if you like me to let, is pass from one to the other more control. finally we as seafood consumers, wind up with that lead on our plate, ah unrest, robledo. some fishers are starting to use alternative thinkers made of ceramic, or think for the un estimate some $640000.00 tons of fishing gear,

including hazardous metals still ends up in our oceans each year to combat the problem, volunteers from hippocampus and organisation focused on the conservation of shorts now did see horses have launched the plume boom project. google ish or ny there. boom, boom is a project born after so many dives eunice, where we saw so much rubbish made from metal whip as if he got from lead and without use and sport fishing and professional fishing. they bought the way big ha nets loaded with lead sinkers, for example, it had category team and they, they pulled to remove the metals from the sea. the project relies on a vast network of volunteer divers like fail ex arleas haddocks. today he's joining a cleaning expedition, a couple of the puzzles, a seaside village in one of the most bio diverse areas in the mediterranean basin, balsamic. okay,

global. we're going to collect lead from the sea floor. it may marine wave sent hooks from fishing here. you've only one, i will small pieces that settle on the bottom of it and get half buried. let's see if we get lucky. with the help of metal detectors, divers can collect between $4.45 kilos of lead at each cleaning. the results are registered on a website that monitors their efforts since 2017, more than 14000 metal sinkers equivalent to one ton of lead have been removed from the mediterranean. but plum bomb doesn't just remove the metal. it also contributes to the circular economy by giving it a 2nd life. thanks to public funds and private contributions. 200 containers have been distributed at diving sinners and yacht clubs along coast here. all divers can deposit pieces they've salvaged. yeah, uh huh. yeah, give

a label to them. what have bravo. we put the lead here government that them you. so c, asian collects it and takes it to the companies. we have an agreement with that they can recycle the metal. so it can be used again in batteries, for example, admiral promo for i've offered it here at the death once the containers are full, the project coordinators bring them back to the heavy metals recovery center. to date, they've delivered more than 900 kilos for recycling. apart from lead other garbage such as plastic cans and glass is harming the marine ecosystem. normally, only divers see the damage 1st hand. so colombo members also organize photo exhibitions to raise awareness and reveal the underwater reality. it can also, they're not shabby sheet. people who don't dive can imagine what is under water,

honey, but they don't really know leak. so if we show them photos and explained to them the consequences of, of having garbage in the sea, they become more aware. he dumped it. a shake on cynthia must. in addition to encouraging the use of sustainable sinkers boom boom is working with governments to implement eco friendly marine policies. and it's appealing to all people to stop throwing trash into the see. ah, well, what's a great project? without them the message to radio would be in a much worse shape. and think of the birds that pick lita out of the sea. all that wastes poses such a danger to them. yes. a bunch, especially the c bonds need a bit of protection keep body is home to one of the main breeding fights of the railed build tropical. but in west africa bought the hud patent is under threats.

ah, the marvelous a red build. tropic bird. these migratory birds spend most of their lives at sea flying thousands of kilometers across the atlantic, and only coming to land to breathe high up in the rocks of a find holes to make their nests. but not much else is known about their habits. researchers from cape bird, have only recently found one of the largest colonies in the world. here on the island of south r to a low passions, a field technician with project biodiversity, a local organization at trying to learn more about the species, to help save the birds from threats and linked to growing tourism. they monitor more than $500.00 nests on the island. they are very good. they have like a big deal and they have, like i said, i got a woman on the,

on the walls like you believe. and they've been, there is super nice. today they're out tagging and taking samples from the birds. they found an unwilling participant here in the side of the cliff. the bird goes into a bag to help calm it down. first they'll take blood determining sex. reco. we think it's from the 5th. you can see like a live in is coming from there. the weird we clean it for is in a very big of the way that the samples they collect, help them understand more about the birds habits, diet and migration patterns, as well as can eminence. they've consumed that also shows how the health of their environments is changing. feathers also provide some clues, like of the change in through chic, like a when, when is the that time of the year later they tend to the feller and particularly of

the feeling. well, so toxins build up in the feathers, evidence of how many patients the birds are ingesting and therefore indicative of the health of fish populations and our oceans. of course, there's also another way to find out what they've been eating their wound warmer. after returning the bird home safely, it's time to check on other nests. this baby is just 2 weeks old. the only check his parents will have this season. that makes the population especially vulnerable and red billed tropic birds are up against an increasing the dangerous worlds. not far from their nests. taurus soak up the sun and sand construction along the coast, erodes natural habitats and light pollution. disorient the sea birds during the night introduce species like stray dogs prey on the birds. not to mention plastic

pollution, which gets into their diet through micro plastics in the fish they eat. but it's a balancing act tourism a means more economic opportunities for locals on the island of project. biodiversity co directors, as human activity, is pushing seaboard collies further and further away from their breeding sites. our tour is back at the office, preparing samples to send to the university of barcelona for processing, where researchers are discovering new insights by crunching the data he's collected . the team hopes his finals will lay the groundwork for saving the red, wild, tropic bird. and that by understanding their fragile ecosystem will better understand the health of our own worlds. wall, how beautiful hope you enjoyed the shoe. i will chew then next week for another episode of aco, africa, time to say good bye from england state. he nigeria. and it is a good buy for me to hear income follow uganda. don't forget to write or send us

your comments and all our social media platforms. remember we or is open to your suggestions ticket and see you next week with a new exciting episode of eco africa. ah . oh. oh oh ah ah, with

who was making the headlines and what's behind them. d. w, news africa. they show the issues in the continent. life is slowly getting back to normal. yeah. well, the street to give you in the report on the inside our cars, funds is on the ground reporting from across the continent, all the trend stuff, the mazda you 90 minutes on

d. w with diversity, and anything unusual, no mountain is too high. no road is too long. in the search of the extraordinary we are the specialists of lifestyle, europe. ah, on d w. ah let us is she? when i arrived here i slept with a sick of people in a room as a 9th fema. it was harsh, fair. i even got white hair, is adding lemming, the german language healthy. i love this kid to me and craig opportunity to

interact with you want to know their story in full migrant verifying and reliable information for migrant co. mike, how can this passionate hatred of a people be explained? your goal tongue go? a history of anti semitism is a history of stigmatization and exclusion of religious and political power. struggles in the christian christianity wants to come for that is why christianity use the figure of the gym. as a guitarist, it's a history of slender, of hatred and violence. a 3rd of our people were exterminated $6000000.00 jews, like microbes to be annihilated even 77 years after the holocaust hatred towards jews is still pervasive. history of antisemitism. this week on
