gaining up after yet. another storm, a number of cheese have been down for farmers and the john are from what the nation . each tree means a loss of 3000 b. that's it on $37.00 euros or one 5th of his entire monthly income. ah, but that is over katie, mother. though abra it is very being the last farmer always depends on his crops and losses like really cost me or my lip. i'm gonna do that. i got up in the last year, 5000000 hectares, a farmland and india, devastated by storm climate change is making these extreme weather events more extreme and harder to predict. every year, thousands of small scale farmers are driven to despair unable to feed their families. dcc site as the only way out in 2020 alone 5000 farmers took their
2:33 pm
own life. ready the indian government has introduced an insurance system to try to cushion farmers losses. the only problem is because many farmers have had bad experiences with insurance companies in the past. the often don't bother making a claim when a lot of gum to claim that insurance, there is not enough manpower to conduct raise door. if there is a timeframe to conduct the survey, there are not enough people to learn the little there. the so insurance is a popular among farmers only around a quarter of the farm land in india. in short, the government is now aiming to expand that to at least half the land so that more farmers safeguarded from financial losses. one private company could possibly be of
2:34 pm
help you, sky met, provide better for more than 7000 better stations spread across in the records, whether assisted by satellite imagery. this is very useful information for insurance companies. we are having data sets, insurance companies basically comes to the say that during that particular video supposed to be in that particular month. so building a month of may or june, there was a, it was weather condition and we need to set up some our insurance claims in particularity over farm. so they comes to us and we basically sell, lost your di units to them. in sunday panels, home village of deborah around 80 farmers have joined a new insurance scheme. agents document the size of each farm and the nature of its produce in the event of damages, their data is passed to sky met, which forwards it with the relevant weather data to the insured on.
2:35 pm
sunday, brianna is also in the scheme for 3 years now. has feels, have been and shocked humanely draws mangoes. the insurance costs him 7500 rupees for 6 months. that's around $94.00 euros, but it's only 5 percent of the real cost. the state based the rest last year, almost his entire mangle harvest was bite out. do do prolonged drought quoted by heavy rain. thankfully, he wasn't sean. the commander come down on it. i think it was impossible to calculate in front office. i could have own from the sale of the mangos, but jordan, jordan, say god, 322-5000 of these reach at least covered all my cost, but he's got a big ramaya 1000000. ah, so that's around for 40 euros for fertilizer and pesticides, which nearly all the farmers here use. in addition to working with insurance companies. sky mm. it also makes its better data available for users of its app.
2:36 pm
a growing number of farmers are using the app for their walk in the field. the forecast give them a tool to make plans. ready the sky, if i to this comment that we get to know about whether the year we know if it's going to rain or not, and this is john. so we know if you should, to spread the fertilizer a day or so to create a climate change, has massively increase the risks faced by farmers but smart ideas like better apps and express insurance solutions. they can at least limit their losses and safeguard their likelihood. for the future another knock on effect of climate change is a dramatic loss of species around the world. if what's at underwear to bring in the injured species back from the brink. not just to save animals,
2:37 pm
but also to help mitigate climate change. to find out how that is supposed to work, our reporter met a demon bulgaria, dealing with the creepiest species of them all. while chose the vulture has a pretty bad reputation, me forever. chillen, who says like a villain, bearing on a a most evil character. i'm up here in the mountains of bulgaria, where these guys are the central characters of the story and of the good guys around the world, groups are bringing vultures back as well as other wildlife from linquist to beaver's even your region wolf. and the goal is for them to play a key role in mitigating the climate crisis. we're living through what's been called the 6th mass extinction, where up to a 150 species are going extinct every day. around the world, many groups are trying to reverse this and up on that mountain,
2:38 pm
one of the biggest such projects on the way i'm in the for a chance keyboard can nature park in western bulgaria, accompanying a group of board handlers. they're working on a potentially game tuning concept called re wilding. here it involves releasing vultures into the skies. the idea is for this to have a knock on effect on the whole ecosystem. we get to how that could all work in a minute, but 1st meet the vulture man in the spots. christopher chef was doing a ph. d on his infamous birds. so how many boys are like, actually in this area? know? because the birds move cross of the between different or introduction areas between different colonies, you can look never say, but maybe around 100. 0, the project began in 2016 to day 13 young vultures are sitting in an aviary at the top of the mountain waiting to be released, where they come from this her native spanish birth because they need to adapt,
2:39 pm
they need to meet the other birds in the area they need to know the area, so they are watching the they are bring here and now they start to think of this place like they're and the their home the vultures on the balcony ecosystem go together like bread and butter. the extensive grasslands, wildlife, shepherds and vultures evolved together here, over thousands of years, supporting each other. every dime a wild animal of sheep or cow dyed. the vultures stepped in the industrialization of she'd farming meant that the ones open, grazing sheep moved indoors and died indoors. and vultures last access to a large part of their food supply. these are still huge challenges for the birds. along with hunting, that population went down from possibly hundreds of thousands of vultures, 19 hundreds to one breeding pair of griffin vultures and 0 scenarios. vultures
2:40 pm
later on the century. so now the team is trying to bring them back to the voters. they're like the local recycling department is very important. they exist to clear up rot, which stop, so spread of disease. and more importantly for the ecosystem. as the birds break down organic matter, lisa nutrients back into the soil that keeps everything healthy here and the bulgarian grasslands. the decline of the vulture has meant that diseases can spread faster and the grass line itself has become weaker. as soil degrades, grass is effected, and this effect knocks on to other living and non living competence in the biosphere. and this is the big problem globally, weak grasslands and broken cycle impact the climate along with forests, crop plans, and wetlands grass land from the you absorbed 263000000 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year. that's about 4 and
2:41 pm
a half times the total annual emissions of bulgaria in 2019. the eel is looking to restore moreland to raise that number 2 over 310000000 tons by 2030. globally. you any p has called for restoring land. the size of canada up over that period. so each release is important. so what i hope will happen to this bird. i hope that will be usual. we'll just release it the to 3 days around knowing the surroundings and then meet the other birds from the cliffs and start to leaf in the ferry. i step away so the bird can have its space to fly. free is the moment we've been waiting for a bit underwhelming, but she's all to ensure the
2:42 pm
survival, the team here have set up vulture restaurants around the country for the now free vultures to visit when they need to, as well as for those stella navy, a michelle on star menu for them, and 0 stars from me. crystal, when i picked up a cow and a sheep that died of natural causes at to near by farms and the restaurants are temporary solutions. the team hopes that farmers will set up their own feeding sites. partner projects, i also introducing read tier into mountains help. so volatiles will have enough to eat without human intervention. someday we don't know what to happen in 100 years. 200 years. one weighs total destruction, capitalism, global warming, and the other ways we change and we start to live with nature. and if they disappeared now, there is no but unity for the future generation to, to care for major. they will have not in. there are now over 300 vultures in
2:43 pm
bulgaria. and last year the 1st to wild vulture chick was born in 50 years in these mountains. but equally dozens have ended up being poisoned or died from starvation exhausted from flying around, searching for food. summer upon those cliffs, new birds are slowly settling into their new home. an older ones are probably meeting offspring, or it could all be going completely wrong. free wilding doesn't guarantee the survival of the species or the systems, but it is a chance to transform entire landscapes and help the climate stayed with lillian. now in many fields, we are discovering the old traditions. this can address modern challenges. the we does our engine scriptures and describe the best practices for him. the way of life among it's applied knowledge literature is this puppet. the amine which demonstrates of will istic approach to building and construction. one entrepreneur
2:44 pm
has developed a product called read the plaster, using some of these principles of water, checked out its feasibility. in the morning and early and in its family home, bol christian is inspecting progress on an extension to the building. the cement is widely used for both indoor and outdoor, plastering and india. bol krishna opted for an eco friendly alternative. a model based product made from organic material. it create a breathable so face that absorbs heat and humidity naturally and releases both evenly. the result is a stable and or temperature. a relief in hot climate. they're going to metal have rolon her softly, or the concrete structure met a concrete absorbs heat during the day and releases it after sunset, sunset give others could release gilbert. cool though it heats up the in tina pill . clearing the need for air conditioning up,
2:45 pm
or what the skinny cool can make an important lover. but with this plaster you don't need any additional cooling. good actually has a cooling fact, a bought extreme beer. the bought a chuckle gregor. the blast was manufactured, 480 kilometers from delhi on the outskirts of beacon chemist. shift urgent molig, a studied mot. houses around the world to devise a whole pallet of alternative building materials. escobar care were give me up and i got kinda 4 other ones while i was leaving inside my house. and then roger bower kind and i woke up in his witt, what's in and then i remembered my ancestral holly. i never got miss hog during summer. doug, i gotta go gotta make in that ethan. i gotta neither. was it been gone during winter? yes. who so i started thinking about like modern houses and warming up miss and what is missing from them or in court exhibits? i guess his ethic that what was missing, he found what natural materials like soil,
2:46 pm
gout, dumb clay, gypsy, cluster beans, and limestone, drawing on an inch, an indian holistic approach to building molig, launched his company, vedic bluster in 2018. it doesn't just produce bluster but bricks and paint made from natural materials, as with smart veil for leaving wait, our ancestors had a video smart way of leaving school today. we should be relying on modern technology, but we also have to look at the v. our ancestors use go coexist with nature. when you come in, i'll get back to produce to plaster base. kelsey knitted gibson is collected from nearby field. it is then mixed with codeine, soil, and good gum to improve the texture and workability. finally, citric acid is added to prevent mold and fungus for the company's eco friendly. brick soil is collected from surrounding areas and cow dung is procured from local funds. ah,
2:47 pm
the materials office weight and then mixed. the mixer is put into a machine with water and line. once ready, it is set aside to rest for 24 hours. on the next day, the mixture is molded into bricks and left a dry out in the sun for a week. this drying process eliminates the meat to burn bricks in a foot and that helps cook gob and emissions. so do, does the fact that these bricks can be produced locally, anywhere in the country. on the way out there, bernardo or i live in beacon in to see if someone wants these bricks in janai instead of transporting them from here. that is, i wonder and raw material there which can be used to manufacture debris exhibit. so you'll save up one car, one nameesha anyway, bill scrub, one on us. little bit about the companies regularly should use workshops and how to produce these bricks. manufacturing locally also helps cut down costs.
2:48 pm
that is key to promoting sustainable construction in india, which next year is projected to surpass china as the world's most populated country . explosive growth has put immense pressure on the existing urban infrastructure, forests and agricultural land have given way to street parking lot and buildings all built from concrete studies show cities like delhi have witness to temperature rise of due to 3 degrees celsius in the last 15 years. expert fe concrete is largely to blame because it absorbs he during the day and releases it at night. a phenomenon known as the oven heat, ireland affect montezuma. one is a professor at the india answered use of technology center for atmosphere sciences and delhi. she used the satellite bid to study the difference in temperature between urban areas and, and outskirts. so on one heat island effect for tropical and sub tropical cities is
2:49 pm
important. because a, we can, you lot of cooling, energy. so higher than play chess, it really contribute a lot in energy consumption, the climate change and increasing temperature is concerned across the void and the increasing temperature is more sleet. now it is very well recognised, is also mean caused you to these administration processes this year. parts of india experience not just one but a series of serial. hitler's average maximum temperatures for maybe the highest 122 years in cities. concrete only intensified the sense of unbearable sweltering heat calls are going for a fundamental re think of how india builds cities and traditional materials like mud miss bluster on a step in the right direction. a $25.00 program bag of vetted cluster covered up to
2:50 pm
2 square meters and costs about 5 years. not dissimilar. the price of $7.00 plus a but billed of say it face to use monthly is martina, you decent, yvonne, time cost and we lost the lifetime which got the last of using video. gloucester is similar to conventional bids on material, but it won't cost you more than the samantha and deity who's actually they will cost or even less eco my. the global climate is changing and the world is facing more frequent heat waves done in the previous decade. the excessive use of concrete is only versioning the crisis. while the existing of in the structures will continue to aggravate the heat, using technology to improve traditional construction practices and help mitigate the problem. changing ones we'll fly can be hot. but when even a small change can benefit the health of our planet and ensure that our future generations continue to enjoy it, like we know it's worth it. think about that and i'll see you again next week. good
