oh, oh my friend habitat ended go listening place of longing. the mediterranean sea have almost heart and to follow up do korean drift along exploring modern lifestyles and the mediterranean meeting. people are hearing their dreams ready to eat journey this week. do you w ah, we live in a world of plenty, yet more than 800000000 people don't have enough to eat. but you one wants to achieve 0100 by 2030 climate change and i'm going population. make that

a tough challenge on eco, india, to be me, explore reason, bridge agriculture can make a difference. hello, welcome. i'm son that i'm agriculture is the main source of livelihood for more than half of india's population. most farmers are poor and many struggle to survive . new techniques hold out the promise of improving their productivity and income. one is aqua phonics, a resource saving system that marries fish and vegetables farming. we visited india's fost aqua phonics vintage, which aims to become fully self sufficient for all its full needs. ah ah you distorted the cold you fun for lydia and she then began going back to lose on the site. then when she heard about an

under farming matter, being promoted in our village, she knew she had to put a shock up a coil of aloe. far out there, i started a young lady to learn to eat her lunch case, active lansdale for my fiance. and it, so i live in arlington, but when i was told i love it, we love me, exposure. that's why i said we're on. i don't have those are the, i want it. i signed up, are not the day has become successful with. and i wanna fuck fuck with law. she knows who lives by the aqua phonics system that she set up in 2017. it allowed to grow almost all the food for her household of 5 lost. she gets to sell the surface to others. and herbal aqua phonics is an organic hybrid falling system. it combines aquaculture the cal derision of aquatic animals and hydroponics which is forming without soy. simply put,

it revolves around the continuous floor. what are between the fish tank and a plump? there is more science to which than meets the eye, the fish and that dang excrete in the water. ammonia and exclaimed is getting through a bite to the blonde, the bacteria and the bed converts and mooney, and deny creaks which serves its nutrients for the plumps. the water, which is now free of mooney. it's bump back done for the fish to grow. aqua bonuses hill voter efficient, forming metal. studies show that it uses 10 times less what than traditional agriculture. since the plant a non cronum soil, this technique also keeps oil when diseases and make use of pesticides is due out because they would condense the fish the story of how luigi and, and you came to practice equip on wants of the studio of india's 1st echo phonics

were located and kept her home down to rawlings, it goes to efficient community whose economy for centuries has relied on got from the scene, not fish swamps, but caroline fisher stalks on the threat from over fishing pollution and the effects of climate change on land over cultivation has impacted crop, eats in response officials launch nick upon exp, palate project in 2016. a local bank provided interest, free loans of 20000 rupees, or 250 euros along with technical training. that has helped close to $200.00 families set up their own systems at home. now, demand is growing. and everybody in john allan allan, i know what i, you know, what can the cell number that i found your new community by an ard on him and one of the young a lot of research, none of it. i think the general us, i'm one, i'm not going to dig into that. it is

a mission the shore komatt has stick into hoth. the who died chorused off of it was one of the 1st to set up an a co op on a system on the project was long conceras. now, 7 years later, he not only grows all his food would also run screening courses. some bombings, not only ensure, but in other parts of cadillac, as well as a mistake, like tom will not one go. what about you? and i wanted you to look into it also to go along a janae little it out to melinda. my name is jojo nelson. amount, you know, you saw a 100 glenda pertains available on this sunday. i was looking on my own feeling pretty, pretty long. that evidence is sufficient. i will go to lunch with him and his book of anywhere. so they are going to read it out of in a more normal unit with these workshops offered technical assistance that can be hard to come by and from national avenue vertically. and that is because there is still ambiguity over which government bond he's actually

responsible for this new hybrid method of farming is other might feel like it. and it, and then to me, this is a street and, and then the linda, this one of each are do entire apartment. i don't know much about the literature or your godly culture department does like a distribution of a dig. i sure did i lose your life or is not the harder you know, what are the little i just a 1000000 challenging, blocked upon order, then no hold apart from constant maintenance. there are other limitations that could prevent equip onyx from being widely adopted in india, potatoes, carrots and group legends, gym, which need more space in a blond that can offer and can not be grown. ease of use investment. the cost a 2nd and the need to continuously bother the system are also considered disadvantages. but experts say the benefits outweigh the dogs. and i get

them coronel over, in order to take and requires a very living to them, or a lot of pallets of obesity. lascola electricity that in latin solar energy and so tenuous bother on the recommended pretty there is listed in the the hardware not only are there any the law, it's the entire year. i think we're looking at about level to begin if you can't get more order to live it away and loaded the city they were in by let despite challenges, interest in their klafonya seems to be picking up in india with farms now in monroe street with roxanne and her young back to jerome, more people from the boss of gun boring to watch and learn from the villages emission success the past few months have been. the busiest focus shall come on her since the beginning of the pendant for him and of the residents. here it is a sign that the book has only just begun. now from

crops in the fields to animals on the farm and strategies to meet a growing global demand for meet with already milking the more start to fall. life's talk through selective reading and gene editing side to say we could use the same methods to make me to production more sustainable. the question is, should we manage their monthly hands there, the pride and joy of their breeders with squeezing as much as we can out of our animals. the world is getting ever hungry. f a meat and milk, but by pushing animals to their limits. when doing the same to our planets, but if we can turn our animals into food production machines, couldn't we also breed them to be more environmentally friendly? this is hardly any ecological nash. we're genetic fuel generics and can't come up with a solution. scientists are working on designing more sustainable animals spice,

selective breeding, or even by artificially changing the genetic code. revolutionary ways to make food production more sustainable or a dangerous manipulation of nature. for more than 10000 years, we humans have optimized corn and rice harvests and engineers. the key needs to be non toxic, sheep, stronger, and wolves, more obedient. we've been doing this very successfully. this is professor john, do pray. he's an expert on the ethical aspects of animal breeding. i mean, you know, if you, if you compare the growth rate to the sizes of animals. yes, as of the last 2 decades, i mean this lead enormous increases in productivity. the hunger for more and cheaper meet him milk has led to chickens that seemed fully grown at 20 days. double muscled cattle and pigs, born with 4 extra ribs. in 1961, a single cow in the u. s. produced 9 liters of milk per day to days. cows produce

an average of 28 liters. that means that 3 breeding the carbon footprint of one glass of milk is a 3rd of what it was many decades ago. cow, still burp and font greenhouse gas is, but they also produce much more milk. however, a far higher milk consumption worldwide negates these savings in emissions. and as a brutal flipside to such food production to animals that live in horrific conditions or grow far faster or heavier than their bodies can cope with. and one factor is driving this to ever greater extremes. meat consumption is booming around the world, while the global population has roughly tripled in the past 60 years. meat production has increased 5 fold, with richer countries devouring most of it. livestock farming requires enormous quantities of water and agricultural land for animal feed and contributes more than

14 percent of all man made greenhouse gas emissions. and regardless as to how productive our livestock is, the way we produce al food is disastrous for the planet. that's why some research is trying to improve livestock sustainability, either by selective breeding or by artificially changing the company. aqua bounty from us is that they're genetically modified. fish is more sustainable than traditionally produce salmon. they introduced genes from other wild fish to create what they call aqua advantage salmon. the super salmon is supposed to grow twice as fast as usual, salmon, and require up to 25 percent less feed. this is not about an sustainability. this is not about producing better animals. this is about when seen a genetically engineered product to the profit of the company. this is donna pulse from the n g o friends of the us, who advocates against this practice. and we can't seem to be there's

a lot of things that is, that is confidential business information. we asked the company for a statement and access to their scientific data, but hadn't received an answer by the time we made this video. the us food and drug administration approved the fish and safe to eat in 2015, but the decision saw heavy backlash from civil society and environmental groups. they took the company to court. there's evidence highlighting this to be genetically engineered salmon bleed with wild salmon. that within a couple generations piled salmon and not only are ecosystems at risk, the potential benefits of artificial genetic engineering can come at a price undesirable mutations and side effects. in 2020 a u. s. court ruled that the f d a had failed to sufficiently investigate the environmental consequences of approving genetically engineered salmon. but what about less invasive selective

breeding? that's when animals with the desired features, a cross bred with each other to boost or disable certain traits. their genes are not directly modified, or this shape has won an award, or rather its creators were honored for their contribution to mitigating climate change. and where else could the sheep have been bred than in new zealand, where she pout number humans, 6 to one greatest sustainability in its meat and will industries is key for the country's own net 0 target. we basically discovered that we can, we can breathe full unless we think this is dr. suzanne ro, for years she has looked at how she could burp out, fewer climate damaging gases. we can change the, the bugs that are in the stomach that break down the feet. and we can change the amount of methane that's emitted. every generation of sheep bread here emits slightly less methane than the previous one. an effect that accumulates over time.

dr. roe says that apart from burping and floating less methane, the sheep are as healthy and productive as their high emitting companions and even meet the criteria for organic farming. to selectively breed the low methane shape. the scientists 1st had to find the nest, gassy ones. so they put the sheep into a special high tech chamber and let them get windy. the sheep here are only used for research purposes, then not sold. the institute is traveling the country, measuring the methane levels of sheep regardless of breed. this means farms can select the more sustainable animals themselves, the so called font chamber, potentially also be used for other graces too. currently, the only genetically engineered animals approved for consumption are found in the us and canada. the u is still far from making such a step, but environmentalists and consumer rights advocates fear that could one day change . meanwhile, the u. k. government has already proposed legislation allowing for the commercial development of gene edited livestock. it seems to me likely that this, this,

these could be on some of our plates and in the next few years, ah, let say within the next 5 years, genetic intervention raises questions about potential risks to the environment as well as undesirable side effects. selective breeding could be a safer and more viable alternative but would demand more effort and time. what's also clear is that the problems that come with milken meat production won't be solved by simply altering car animals. the same type of intense hot spills that plague farmers in india. i'd also wreaking havoc on crops in europe. scientists, for instance, have leaked the halter conditions 2 or 3 voices. look austin vision on the italian island of sardinia. farmers. there have found a jewel take hooks. the best hope of combating the swans need

with a barren landscape. and the last stragglers of a recent locust swarm the insects left a trail of devastation in their wake. also on farmer, anton hello, browse pastures. lou on the market, there is nothing left. look at the soil and wonder. they devoured everything. what look, look here. see how many locust there are? quite like one to cover the shallow. the slurry tank is full of locusts. anton hello had to move his 800 goats to the surrounding countryside as there was nothing left for them to graze on here. the insects even ate the hay for the winter, which will mean higher cost on a job that's already hardly profitable craft. but normally it's impossible to calculate. the damage is the constant. norfolk, we've had locust invasion since 2019 recovery, but it's never been as bad as this year. so like was to live in liquid ton north.

brookfield and estimated 50000 hector's of land in sardinia have been effected. the epicenter of the plague is the tier. so river valley. so not that it's only been fed, but this whole area has been ravaged by the locust oscillate. the gallow figure, the spunk element they. they moved along the river with the flood plains below this mountain range, offer ideal conditions for local seal ali. a soap talk was that got they? nothing like that. a little more beginner cavenella, fabio worked for the regional agriculture agency. part of their job is to try to gain control over the past. really kick with thought here this female is lang, are eggs, me the grid that are femina, but she digs a whole. clear said outside of an all clear then and go the eggs we met they leeward for every female deposits up to 30 eggs 3 times each season will take talk with shuttle fair. these are the pods they laid their eggs in africa, 3 next to each other called the internal dish. inside that the eggs of the loca.

secondly, aline. their life cycle last from april to july. how long mr. lulu? they lay eggs 3 times, and then they die that but one of but that evolved if we more you, locusts will even eat other dead locusts, fabio says proper plowing of the land is an important tool for combating invasions that it would have an effect. but it may ploughing is important in order to get the eggs out of the ground that went on to the surface. they, because only there can they be eaten by the natural predators that burns pigs wild boys or other on the force from earlier to the chatham public. any mileage shall neely arturo cocoa from the university of sorry, research is locusts. he explains multiple factors contribute to locust investigations which began on sardinia in 2019 sequence man. they can be, i mean the climate change plays a big role you mall because we now have long, dry periods eatable receive. on top of that,

on the more and more land has been abandoned, tanya called him. it's no longer being cultivated or managed to lock, will give us your net, the very thought. mm. the use of chemicals is only effective against young locusts . plus, there are large areas where pesticides cannot be used anyway because they're devoted to organic farming. researchers are therefore relying on natural predators. first and foremost, this beetle malebranche variable us up on that, but then also a boat that we must do whatever it takes to protect and propagate the locus natural predators sooner and their la had that. but i thought the only way we could control this infestation would red linkedin seat dowdy quest. they'd be questing for us. that's your garvey, no one fabio collect the beatles as they are currently the most successful weapon for preventing future locust plagues that bonnie lew over arlene, this is a delay. its eggs in the hole where the locusts have their egg salad, that when the beat love, i eat the locusts eggs. they lay. they were tried to capture as many beetles as

possible in places where they're not needed. they had to waddle and used a lot where we need their help out only over magole to national or international. the meno. in 2021 sardine as regional government made a plan to and bath the locust plague smith. this includes an app for reporting swarms, organic pesticides, and farmers being required to plow their land even now gabino and fabio are working hard so that next summer their native island will be spared from the insects noon. there's a different trach to farm land or on santini as neighboring island of sicily. farmers are selling valuable crop land to make way for solar plants and wind farms . that's good news for italy's renewable energy targets, but it's jeopardizing the regions we tears. while the area around tra, pony in western cecily is so rich in wind and sun, it smoking, a wave of gold rush,

fever architect, and nina masada said it's an el dorado for renewables to india. vivian, rebuild, prevent every one's lining up. today's kianna, french give german, most americans, not just italians, living rooms only that and then hawaii e let international companies want to invest in the production of electricity generated by our wind. little sign wants to so you're bound. so when the wind turbines are turning, that means business is booming for the sicilian mazata broke as licenses for wind and solar parks. that includes fields where green ones screw fell, the tortoise and angelo still farms his land. here in east in sicily, his family has been growing wheat for generations. he wouldn't dream of sacrificing his land for a solar park or wind farm that had been availability on him. that would be tragic in the end of a naturally grown product, the yamuna,

glad they went to the doctor. but right next to his field, there are markings on the road, electricity pylons will soon be built here for a solar park further down in the plane. and there who is here on site, wanted to see the project stops or you know why they were going to the top of it down to the lab difficult, top lake antonini. and the investors are exploiting the farmers financial difficulty of the city where they receive relatively little money for their crops, hardy, but a lot of money for their land o u t carrying de la who would say no to back to the local stream g. but it would be the end of the tradition and identity of farming here a lot or a lot of rain theda. even the italian state is encouraging farmers to profit and the opportunity that the salvatore st angelo is green is his life. with the on ground or not, this is all natural, untreated durham, we'd shine, you can tell by the find flowery powder that sticks too. it a lot of that way. back in west and cecily antonio, my father and his son,

just epi, are looking for land. they still maps and scout around for locations suitable for photovoltaic power plants. they're looking to require at least 60 hector of land sale to renew it warner. elura and orange is o r 3. only tourney is the terrain as good, and there are no legal restrictions. all the purchase price can be $25000.00 euros per hectare gilchrist and rule of indian gay miller. your aid dental for the owners . got a really great deal. no cause yawning. the missouri's use a drone to inspect the sight of the future. so le park, they checked the soil fe erosion which could hinder construction. if all goes well, renewable energy could soon be produced here. comparable diary. ha, what? right? 30 of indian grandma. you can get a 100000 euros for selling for hector's of land. but

a former mixed has $3000.00 euros a year for hector, a best cultivating, graeme and isla amin arrows over the left bay. that when the warrior english saw more so how many years of work does it take to make as much money as i can get from us straight away love. we love you a little bit, a little bit of renewables instead of farming. many sicilians fear that due to the war in ukraine life on the island could quickly change if the russian gas needed for energy production were to stop flowing. but that creates a conflict of interest. since italy is currently unable to import supplies from the bread baskets of ukraine and russia, italians need to grow more wheat themselves. because without grain, this bred or pasta. what been solid okay, shall be always on the can't be acceptable. the to hover our future energy. nance, we start turning the greenfields of sicily into rows of windmills and solar panels lining it up into space from the landscape. gentlemen is not boiling debbie doyle, local mass, and farmers are demanding fair pay for cultivating grain. and they say so the power

could just as well be produced using rooftop panels without sacrificing fertile farmland and tanina. my thought it doesn't understand their concerns. he wants renewables from sicily at any price, with the ordinal lovario diesel to the credit union. we have to provide the capacity now because we're running out of rushing gas veteran energy dodge of all the have clean energy away. you just have to harness it with that electricity or bread, renewable energy, or farmland. the warm and ukraine is forcing people in sicily to make tough choices to tough choices, like we just saw when only get tougher going for what each one of us is bound to be affected by unsustainable agricultural practices. growing population and climate

change, the time to speak out for change is now. i'll leave you with that and see you again next week. good bye. and thanks for watching with ah, ah, with
