need for mines sometimes a seed is all you need to allow the big ideas to grow. we're bringing environmental conservation to life with learning pass like global ideas. we will show you how climate change and environmental conservation is taking shape around the world and tone can all make a difference. knowledge grows through sharing. download it now for, for ah hello and welcome to africa, the environment magazine corporate used by n t be in uganda. channels tv in nigeria, and did of you in germany? i am sandra tree. nobody and with me today as always is michael present

a crease. hey chris, how are you today? just fine. sandra, thank you so very. a much on the one. welcome to all our viewers out there. we have a lot in store for you on today's program. so let's take a quick look at what we have coming up in our cheerio. we'll meet a young activist campaign in for the environment. any rhonda will learn how to present from land can be restored according to a recent you and report climate change is having a growing impact on the african continent hitting the most vulnerable of the hottest science based climate information can help build resilience a cornerstone of climate change adaptation, what enables people in the villages and communities to understand what climate changes, and at the same time to do something about it. the gambia environmental monitoring

system science project in west africa is also try to involve the local population in the process. with one way to include every change as carefully noted m u h week cardiac to clarity, and at the see not david davis collect environmental data from the aquatic, an terrestrial echo systems in 6 locations along the gumby river. right now i'm recording the parameters. we have here which is their temperature humidity, the wind speed, the wind chill, the air pressure, altitude, do point, and of in direction. the effects of climate change are causing hardship for many who live near the river. for centuries, they help subsist that on small scale fishing and farming man groups, which will to salt out of the water made that possible. but due to the rise and sea

level and extensive droughts, the reverse salt content got so high, it's killed many cheese. that's been disastrous for pharmacy like fat to mata barrow ha, car or data. we used to harvest rice here down, but now the yield is low, am would wend among goose, we're healthy, big nowhere, no problem. so what i mean by they are now dead. and our crops are not doing well when they, when they load up on it. not a lot of research has been done on bio diversity in d environment in the gumbo. so that makes predicted the impact climate change might have on local ecosystems more difficult. that inspired 10 young scientists to launch the gems initiative. just as an acronym program, environmental measurement systems project. and it is a research project whereby we're collecting environmental data along their veneers . understand this is not an yellow fluctuations happening,

but what's away is almost 1200 kilometers long. so the institutes rely on the support of community based groups and locals, like c double a journalist by trade double works as a citizen scientist, 20 kilometers from the capital banjo. my role as it citizen and the other collector is to collect data and then send to them every week and also train some students along with me to also be a gun. know how to collect data i decide to participate in this program because if you look at this area, you will see that it's already dead. here in the lower river division, the di back is extensive, mangrove stamps thought am otherwise empty landscape. live in the coastline exposed . it's no longer possible to maintain fills through title irrigation from the river . the loss of the mangroves also means a loss of habitat and breeding ground. for fish and other aquatic life. the fresh water fish have moved further upstream. with the help

of international n g o z and volunteers and zoom on our double hopes to restore the mongol forest but with a different more robust variety. thanks. did he did as required regressing, should we, i been able to know the salinity level of, of the water and sekoya been able to identify these pieces of mangrove re, half we didn't, our echoes houston, they observed a lot of sort a lag before. when there was not 3 salt in tucson, is that well now, how's the among those are so tara level, the absolve, let or so that has made a decrease in salinity level, which andy woman rice for too much a barrel. was being quin rice here for 20 years. halston newly planted. redman gross will give her crops a fighting chance. y'all,

while we thank god, what a new man gross along the river. asked a grueling less salt. we'll get through cottony, allowing him to wound it. since august 2021 more than 850000 mongrels having planted in the come down river delta in order to conserve the eco system. the symbiosis of scientific knowledge and local engagement is barren fruit . why do we actually need climate activists? what can they do better than politicians and scientist? for one thing, they speak for the our own generation. our generation that has to cope with the world will leave them. but more importantly, the money to motivate other young people. and my compatriots, identical or ludvigsen says, but what lies the head offers in terms of environmental protection. cannot be done

by the few echo africa visited her. ah, my name is ally, decide indicate i'm an equal feminist. climbing justice up to the senate reporter using a video blog as her fighting to orlando to dinner is one of africa's most vocal environmental activists. having studied agricultural, the 27 year old has always had a love for the environments, but it was after meeting greater to look at the 2019 cop conference in madrid that she was inspired to take further action. standing alone, she started the fight for future movement inland. jerry, all, what we want is to have climate. justice is where we are going that mike has the most irrespective of the call to where we have from all the oh i read. we are

all in the same thing one year into protesting every friday and giving talks, allowed us to realize that there was a lack of knowledge about climate change on the continent. so she started her own pan african climate just this movement. and website where she writes about how africa specifically, is affected, just like the classes between the for my son, it's min, the survival issue. for full resource control, the strength they had. and they build our crisis up and we didn't, africa goes on hot. let people get so in this turn that we have a problem in our society, and we need to solve this problem right now. as an echo feminists, orlando sues work also focuses on how environmental rights are connected with women's rights. she regularly visits female farmers to teach them how to care for

their environment and adapt bitter to the changes. her greatest passion is inspiring children and getting them involved in climate activism. right at schools she teaches about recycling and planting trees at valley santo ha, and i know the importance of plants, enough trees i lecture is bird me to stop cutting down she iron plants and see when i grow up our plants trees in my house for me to stay. 1 arrows for our lab, osu climates. education is the only way to secure their future in thickets, to call it they'll be in the am lead that will be the one at the forefront of the climate. and i'm just this movement to be advocates in depth, different perspective, orlando, so beneath that everyone, regardless of age can and should do something to protect a planet. oh,

good. so why not start right now? climate change is needed to set the necessary changes in motion. only a combination of all of them can slow down the increase in global temperature bit by bit. but crease even if we stoped and meet in greenhouse gases today. the rise in global temperatures would only be going to flatten after a few years. there is a time long between what we do and when we feel the results. this is why it is urgent to ok now and why other plan is a walking, a new mobility concept that can be implemented quickly and sustainably. there's animation shows what the host clarkson hamburg would look like if all the cars and traffic signs were gone. making room for trees and grass. it could be a square paradise for cyclists and pedestrians. but it actually looks like this,

much to the displeasure of hamburg graphic designer, yan kaminsky. he would like to see fundamental changes, which is why he began making animations of how he believed streets should be been on farm out of point. so we're going, the project got started with the beginning of the cobit pandemic, marson, which i looked around and thought of. i don't want to just sit and wait for the changes we need. i want to contribute read august i. and as a visual designer, i can change urban spaces or the friend on young commands. he thinks great streets and dreary squares should be transformed around the world for at least an animation . to start, like here in new york city and in belgium's capital, brussels and germany's capital berlin. the graphic designer, launched social media accounts under the name utopia. for bicyclist. as paul may up

tops was father. we need more space for bikes and more bicycles so that their genius can take effect for some follicle, their low emissions. so i didn't take up little space compared to other modes of transportation flux, and forgot and can be used for many things. on us. a few studies in that spot. young kaminsky vision is already reality in germany's neighbor, the netherlands. for example, in the countries for largest city attract where a 125000 people cycle daily, whatever the whether that's more than a 3rd of the city's population. communication expert chris franklin works for the dutch cycling empathy, a network that advocates for greater use of bicycles. ah, he spends much of his time on the bradenberg the most heavily traveled bicycle path in the netherlands. a good 33000 a bike writers use it every ah,

but before it used to be a mountain lane road with heavy traffic, like the one found in all cities. unfortunately, a lot of cities cycling is still just for the fit in the brave and the really risks taller and people that are willing to rub shoulders with motor vehicles. but that's not the vast majority of people that live in that city. they want to be able to tune out and just enjoy their commutes and, and when you provide safe, sag separated space for cycling. you're going to attract more of those, those casual users. a lot of women, a lot of children, a lot of the elderly people with physical disabilities in 2019 to run the biggest parking garage for both cars open to the track displays, tell cyclists if any spaces are freed up to 12500 bike riders can park here right next to the main station? chris franklin, test the garage was another reason why the netherlands can be described as the bike friendly in fact,

the country has become known for its bike friendly and aesthetically pleasing solutions such as the daphne shippers bridge, which passes over the roof of his school and connects to neighborhoods for many new tract cycling, it's more convenient than char is just so much more convenient to travel around the city on a bike and so much quicker and more fun. hamburg is still far from being cyclists, paradise. but young minsky hopes to at least bring attention to urban mobility question. nearly 2 thirds of africa is a working population are employed in funding. so the 5th, as economic importers can't be overstated. it also provides food for millions of fundies, of course. but climate change pauses a growing threat to agriculture, drought streak and soil that has been leached over each nutrients cannot produce a decent harvest. so how can food security be maintained?

here is one also from render coaxing. a decent harvest out of the soil is tough. here in the mountainous chicken. b district of north and rwanda. eugene hi. gina manor and his wife worked from dan till dusk. their field are on steep slopes. so when it rains, the water flushes the soil down into the valley. if things don't change the farm of fears, this family could face starvation. since this is their sole source of income. the only thing he thought you look at these bananas liked watching and we used to harvest banana bunches weighing over 50 kilos insulation. so looking at this one, you can see we have a problem. look on them. a situation made worse by climate change. have you in full alternating with extreme dr. periods has rendered entire slope barren, meaning they're no longer suitable for forming your mother. it's difficult to farm

in these mountainous areas with such excessive rainfall. if it causes land, crops, and fields to be frequently washed away, not to mention the loss of life among local people. no, no. under these conditions, farmers cannot hope to produce harvests without a sustainable solution to all these problems that you know, you wouldn't it. this is where the green to can be programmed, comes in agriculture experts visit farmers to show them how to respond to the changing weather conditions and how to protect their soil. it's hope the product will benefit are on half a 1000000 people across the 800 square kilometers that the deacon b district covers. it has the budget of nearly 30000000 euros and it's funded by the u. ends. green climate fun with no time to waste. everyone pitches in to put the expert insights into practice tools or hunger learning. we end up with

a it increases our awareness of climate change and how to adapt our farming methods to his family. we taught how to restore are abandoned, learned how to fight erosion during the rainy season and how to store rainwater for irrigation during the dry season. yamazik to let you know it's very useful up for you. he's one key this. the build terraces on the slopes. this allows more rain fall to sleep into the soil, and slows down the water flow into the valley. plus the terraces, the easier to plant crops on horizontal trolls also been created to slow down and divert fast flowing run off water. that water can then be collected and stored in under down tanks to be used later. i regain there at the thought process has her double impact has impact to reduce the soil erosion daughter tain. in the side. contributor doctor, the productivity,

and the also the physician, a applicant, all different sizes going where do to did establish those benches? terraces out on the terraces. the farmers also plant additional trees. their roots will over time, protect the soil from erosion, while their leaves will provide shade during dry season. for the soul, steam, mice for longer. mays, beans, and potatoes go far better, and the farmers can improve their yields. many tracts of land they used to lie fallow and now flourishing again. the variety of vegetables leading to improve nutrition amongst the local population. ill salary survey. the harvests that were expecting this season is a miracle for me. from this land was no longer usable. but since the arrival of green jacoby climate change is no longer stopping us from growing crops, ha, ha,

ha, ha, ha ha! just look at what we have in these fields shown in the further boost to the farmer's livelihood. new t plantations are being used up on that land. they had long ceased to be fertile, and there are more wide years in the pipeline. we can little comment any area in throb, which is appropriate, appropriate for put that before it's free. appropriate for such a for a 3 appropriate for conservation and look across the valley and beyond reveals the dividends of the green to can be project. the arid brown of depleted slopes is gradually disappearing, replaced by lush greenery and farm land. with some depend on healthy soil. others depend on an intern marine ecosystem, but there is only

a limited amount of fish in our oceans. and those resources are being depleted quickly. does right sandra, according to the w. w. f says tomatti over fission, an illegal fission of valuable fish talks is to blame for the destruction of many marin echo systems. with the help of digital technology, a project on south africa's cape wants to end the suffering of local fishermen there. 5 30 in the morning at the port of cape town, while most of the city still sleeves skipping geoffrey fraser and his crew prepared to put out to see the 10 member crew are going hand line fishing for kate green. they're hoping for a good catch today. they did have been with also the patience of whiskey. a good skipper, you know, get you. i think there might be some truth in that, but it's

a little fishy to lay all the blame on the skipper. conditions for art is an old commercial fishing on the cape, have grown tougher over the years. possibly climate change. over fishing of the bytes. change of current young plenty reasons i can give you they also struggle with fishing quotas and market access. jeffrey fraser wants to improve conditions for his crew and has found the solution in the upper lobby app of a lobby, which means someone who fishes in a local language connect small scale fisher's directly with consumers. daniel smith helped found the app and the n g o of the same name, which began as university of cape town, re such project in 2017 karen's on africa. the under, on the world's small scale fishes have been excluded and struggle for access to

market a below be came about recognizing that there was this need. and there's an opportunity to then connect these small scale fishes digitally and to markets. and for them to be able to access and own their own data. in practice, this means jeffery fraser and his crew consolidate daily cats to restaurants and private directly through the upper lower be cutting out the middleman. labor love is quite a good out for us. that we know what we are going for and what they're getting and the price is much greater than we get from the local buyers. so for us, it's a big out. we're good with crew member, reggie shrank, says middleman only pay fishes roughly a euro. a kilo for kate breen are worth on of a lobby. the crew can nice over 3 times fat. that means they can generate the same revenue with a smaller catch,

a below be as financed through donations and outside funding. the n g o behind the app helps the fishes with infrastructure and logistics catches go by refrigerated truck to decentralized refrigerated storage facilities. short holes help reduce the carbon footprint. a below be employee. hon goliath confirms the ways of the catch. he comes from a fishing family and wants to help his community by missouri and i want to remain your future role, your district or work board or fishing, or do or thing for as long as are in victor from the fishing industry. what are will all be duly do? just a sure starts to work toward the approaches between after we get the fish in the end consumer, which is a driven for generations rule. and that's exactly what happens the catches from jeffrey phrases, boat and other, a below be fishers go online and become available to customers on the apps market

place. page chef neal swat is co owner of a restaurant in cape town. he is one of over $400.00 ships and $8000.00 private customers registered as buyers on up a lobby. last night, the shift placed an order on the app. this morning, hunger life delivers it 5 kilos of cape bream. the proof is in the pudding or the fish fish for that matter, like that. the quality of the fish we got is just that something we haven't worked with before with the apps q r code, the restaurant. and his guests can trace exactly where a fish comes from. the fishes name, the species, and where it was coat. jeffrey, i love knowing where the money is going. i love knowing that the money is going to the fisherman and not some massive companies just amusing the sea and the customers

also enjoy hearing that the money they spend there by us goes directly to the fisherman. and we can see exactly how much they get. since its debut, applebee has put more than 500000 heroes directly into the pockets of struggling fishes. similar projects are already up and running in other countries, all aimed at preserving fish stocks and ensuring local fishing has get a living wage. arming ourselves against climate change and its consequences, as well as gaining new knowledge to educate local populations and apply new ideas and methods. i hope visitation of the show convinced you how important, caring for environment is for now. good bye for me, chris. the lamps in lagos, nigeria, we hope you enjoyed a great mix of topics coming through from africa and europe. and of course, we look forward to having your company once again next week. i am sandra,
