11:43 pm
century. there are several reasons for that. it needs light to survive. so processes that made them water, murkier will impact on the sea grass. so some of those could be m direct processes . so maybe like a building of a pool. other things like changes in water temperature in some areas, even they've been dredging out of the beach, is because they think that the tourists don't want to have to walk across the grass . they want to go swimming on like a pristine white beach here on the west coast of scotland, these environmentalists one to reverse this trend. to do so they're plunging down into the cold water. the goal is to harvest, see cross with fresh seeds and then plant more of it. this helps to restore the original ecosystem while simultaneously storing c o 2. in fact, c grass does exactly what plants on land do, absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. at the moment obviously do that
11:44 pm
before the main or carbon cessation schemes are people grasp ration and a tree planting. but we live at a relatively small island here. so those are not only so much space that the can, that can be done. and i'm so people are starting to look towards the sea now and, and try to find opportunities so far they've planted about half a hector of c grass. their goal is to eventually have ac hector's. more importantly, they want to encourage and teach other communities along the scottish coast to do the same. this could have a significant impact on reducing c o. 2 in northern great britain, ah, bosnia and herzegovina is eager to become a member of the european union. and that means carrying out a series of reforms, including the functionality of state institutions, or many communities, including kac and you don't have proper waste management systems. garbage has
11:45 pm
become a part of the landscape, spoiling rivers and green spaces. it's one of the leading environmental challenges facing the nation. the multi ethnic state is home to bosnians, serbs, and creations. and they're coming together to tackle the rubbish one piece at a time. when suffered cuba calls from of the activists answer over 30, this time aged 7 to 77. he's often surprised at the success of his initiatives while yet yet all this was opera was not. for the most part, the people have organized themselves for says don't go pick while pick up no institutions or citizens, action groups or companies are involved here. it, okay. only citizens of every age and that in the city. i thought it serves croats, posley acts, and others. you said by for ortho bush, nocka, your stolley this time they're working on the banks of the bars. know the river
11:46 pm
that gave this country it's name. it's an idyllic slice of natural paradise, at least at 1st glance. but a closer look reveals old tires in the water on the bank. opposite. nature swiftly covers over almost everything, but underneath the trash remains for a very long time. the longer it remains, the harder it is to clean up later. countrysides littered with waste are a huge problem in bosnia and people here are fed up las vegas as i star by video. anal with is a really dirty lobby, comma polluted by factories that dump everything imaginable in to them. i used to talk foisy, people to like they just tossed their trash straight on to the river, his daddy guy, louder all nationalities here from every country you, the people are waking up to this hullabaloo for years, soft. cuba has been battling the garbage and it's everywhere. he says,
11:47 pm
authorities aren't taking enough action yet, i don't, i that she probably marbles. one reason we have so much trash and bosnian hits a go vina is that we don't have waste disposal services everywhere. neil, especially not in the countryside. father. my father has another reason is that the authorities don't penalize illegal numbers at the school. the either lack the means or the necessary information is alma ilene emory though and does not know the what i did that could make his thought. and so soft, cuba has been setting up hidden cameras. they record the offenders and deliver crucial evidence to the authorities. hostile panel poll, 3 of them, a garage on a postal pump. we take action when citizens inform us. good morning will. oh, and whenever we catch someone who has dumped garbage illegally, she'll, we try to penalize them to the maximum extent possible, nor does what an nestle me god. last thing, we're still a little cynical that's not always the case. according to suffolk hubert. his
11:48 pm
principal means of raising awareness is the internet's in 2020. he started the facebook group, be the change. the list of accomplishments is already impressive. so far there have been more than 3500 clean up initiatives throughout the country involving over 20000 participants. and what's new for bosnia is the reach across borders and ethnic groups. people everywhere organizing themselves because they believe the state has dropped the ball. they have to fema with huge one is nature and the environment are beautiful again with people can come here for a rest. if western europe can achieve that, why shouldn't it be possible in bosnia hubert? now others are beginning to join in local waste disposal services. for instance, many here have been struggling with insufficient funding and outdated equipment, with some help from suffolk who but the service here got hold of a trash compactor. the next step is separating the trash did a little dog. so dog,
11:49 pm
one result of our cooperation with the facebook group is that we've introduced 2 different bins to trash can be separated right now, but it's a start. i suppose you have to remember now. so there's just too little environmental awareness among the citizens and across the country. in general, you see grudgingly ah, yes, i called vision deal, michel darrel and he doesn't have to look far. for example, a parking lot close by is littered with trash left behind by a flea market held there. they come to clean it up every week, but soon after it looks just the same book, walk, beaten. i was, i, yes, that we have to put more work into raising environmental awareness. so the population will understand ecology on these that the, and the humans i have this problem better capital. and especially what it means to care for the environmental problem. he stops does not, she does not eat this. they got to go for the along the bosner. they've been making good progress. young people are putting lots of energy into it. every piece of trash is another small victory. it doesn't take long for them to pile up quite
