percent of the world population. very simple. that facility that's very convenient for the chinese. often the port may be full there, excuse me, but i am the mediterranean as become a kind of great sarcophagus. if anything he was proud of, it was to be a steal worker, like his grandparents and his parents. this is his business to come with your whole life. world, the winners and losers. globalization, where do we stand? starts january 1st on d, w ah, well come to a coo africa, i hope you're ready for packed shook. i'm chris alone, coming to you from ogen state nigeria. hi there. i am sondra twin over to you and

happy to be with you as well from cappella. here in uganda, coming up, we'll meet some of the activists fighting to protect nature. and we lead our very survival also on the shall paul weaving can protect us from too much sunlight. and how co op can be produced sustainably. we are wise sister's friends and also mothers, women of course, the world show the great responsibilities. and many are also particularly committed to protecting mother off bumps because we understand how important i healthy planet ease, afford descendants. i'll fus report takes us to ivory coast while we meet female activists standing up for the environment. oh, good. much lies hidden under the sand

here, but it's not treasure people from nearby villages bury waste on the beach which re, surfaces when the tide comes in, martinez was there. we knew is getting local community is involved in cleanups with her injury over caesar, she aims to raise young people's awareness of pollution. is to be part of august are not enough to have policies and laws, although they're very important and i'm working on that. but how to communities act, what contributions can they make on a daily basis? how can we encourage people to adjust their habits in small ways? bringing about behavioral changes is extremely complicated, were to reduce the activist has invited several media organizations to take part to day. what is unusual, while women are often committed to environmental protection, many keep a low profile and their initiatives remain confined to the private sphere. with only ongoing, from once, a young woman, seeing a woman at the forefront of initiatives already shows that we women have

a responsibility to raise awareness lap, which is our new process they're valuable available. so it also inspires me to see someone so dedicated to the cause of protecting the environment without reload, blah. women are also disproportionately affected by climate change and pollution according to you and report. another important reason to encourage their participation. a b, b t do is or no go is an eco toxicology professor. she says, due to cultural customs, it's women who are often absent from debates on the topic. changes in the air. however, on social media to yeah, we'll call to no positive hon loophole. but there are many women who don't speak up because they're not used to speaking in public into a wall villa lobos of the day sense to themselves and that set. oh no, that's why if you look for them,

you can't find them here was malicious all of them. i think that fortunately things are changing more and more. there are many young women who speak out who defend their rights or who defend the environment, and who are committed to humanist causes, causal. things are changing. fortunately. such hospitals more ha, the growing sense of urgency is undeniable. enlarge african cities like a visual pollution is increasing and the last green spaces are disappearing. women and children are the worst exposed as they often live in rundown areas. plastic waste, in particular, is a huge problem. to create more awareness about pollution and reduce litter artist, moon, or mickely, regularly organizers, workshops or children in the neighborhoods of our vision above rocky edge,

a girl there, child who learns how to take bottles and turn them into a work of art will gather them up at home and be creative with them that his parents won't understand, but he'll say, mom, i want to make something with this. it's fun. am i said the child educates his parents without knowing it. another way to inspire conservation is to go out into nature like into a visuals bunker forest. the ivory and capitals last green lung, the program evey awful, re organizes educational visits. it's found at taylor balls on delay is passionate about nature. to imagine they go home. imagine someone coming in to your house and breaking every thing, would you like that? or would you davina mentioned it's the same thing. so when we enter the forest, we must respect the home of the trees and the animals any more. she wants to prepare the young ones to take over on quarter of a mournful is all for we are really counting on the children to become

a generation of eco responsible adults. that has shown that ego, that's what we want to create a yield with a generation that is sensitive to the issues here that wants to protect the environment. so this is and that is even capable of restoring it to school. think of our 1st marriage was there were a new moon. i may calais and till a ball some delay. these are just 3 of the women in ivory coast who are getting involved and standing up for environmental protection. wall. how inspiring on it find the people in our next report? equally inspiring weavers in spain. are we using plastic bugs to create something extra special? let's find out more in these weeks. doing your beat ah, colorful sunshades. have given this village a whole new look there made of plastic waste, skilfully crocheted by residence of vall, that ad de la veda, the village,

famous for its historic center, is about a 150 kilometers west of madrid. the group that makes the shades is led by architect head designer marina fernandez. but i am off that over you thought a we tried to repurpose shopping bags of them or other waste from packaging and use that to crochet the sunshades gallery on lobby though they prolong the life of the material and transforms it into something new. the also benefits the municipality, and all that was going to so many people most of the work is done in winter in preparation for the long, hot summer. maria deadra, theo explains how it works. if at the end of that you get a lot my, depending on how thick i want the yarn, i can and cut the strips wider or narrower and data, i cut them diagonally to make ribbon which gets twisted and t on.

and that's what we then crochet with whatever form they take. the colorful sunshades are designed to appeal to tourists. in particular, the many small businesses in by their, their de la vera depend on the money brought in by the visitors. but the ones made from plastic waste provide an added benefit to local residents, tourists, and not least the environment. oh, and how about you? if you 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 of the ivory coast. ganna is the was 2nd largest export of coca cola beans and was they've grown by this more famous but outdated plantations. diseases affecting the cwa trees on increasing

drought due to climate change, a making life difficult for them. a project hopes to revive the fortunes of garner small farmers by showing them how to cultivate debates differently. for out of my food, any is checking the condition of his cocoa trees and removing excess shoot. he wants to get his plantation into shape important visitors are on their way. a scientist from the state cocoa authority i said, you'll be coming by today. i ago was that are all my to day. i'm thinking with just a few glances, are most cordial. why sees what out in my food sydney has done wrong. for starters, this fruit, a squirrel, nibbled on it, that farmer should have chopped it off immediately. now answered eaten the cocoa beans and are threatening the other fruits to. and there's another problem says it

is free. these 3 takes a lot of water from the soil, assuming you cut to the root of it, you see a lot of water coming out of it. is that during the addresses in order, as you said it leaves, which means is very good to provide seat for the coding addresses in. but on the other hand, because it takes too much water from the soil, it is computing for water and nutrients will go plants. the fact that the soils water balance could be a problem is new to adam of whose any he only thought about the shade his coco plans needed. he learned about shade from his father orlando's manu or cocoa farmer who rehabilitated his farm with the support of a dutch and g. o. when he saw his father's farm taking off, he decided to quit his job as a teacher lot and see a lot of enrollment as well. my prize able to get food to feed the family again saturday, food i he says was able to set my son down some small income for,

for the family and running data. and now i mean when i try to do too full fam, almost coach or choir examines the right cocoa pods. it's out of my food and he's 1st harvest. the scientist divides the fruit into 3 groups based on quality. this also let him make predictions for future yielded a ha, okay, and look back with about 84 kilograms. so if it were to get at it of them out from next year on, was as if i'm ages we can predict that their farm is going to do very well. miss our people, however out of my food and he can only achieve this goal. if he manages his farm flawlessly, almost cojo quite shows him how the trees have to be proved to any look so that all the energy goes into fruit production. and to warns against the use of pesticides sadie close to the t. v. now we have taught their co farmers in ghana not to use we

decides anymore, because we decides where destroying the soil is what does making us well heavy? it was killing microorganisms. that's mig, that's way loose and, and good. instead, he recommends applying compost fertilizing the soil with compost alone is not enough though. climate change is presenting coco farmers in western ghana with new challenges because of drought. this farmer waters his 12 acre farm by hand every week dog sustained the google. but i'll as it or die because of the how much i adam of wilson, his father has it easier now. 6 the dutch n g o, as in v, drilled a bordeaux on orlando us manas farm and installed a drip irrigation system, a pilot project for the region. it

says the toilet some people from s in v installed this water from forming. it was free. i didn't pay anything, not one city, and i didn't have to worry about food or where the workers would sleep. when they were finished, they just handed me the soda machine. i never would have expected anything like that. when i asked for an estimate of the costs, i was told $21000.00, so i wouldn't have been able to come up with that. even if my family had sold everything household dollies, orlando us, mano has to take care of the maintenance of the wealth and give some of the water to his neighbors. in the capitol acro, the state cocoa regulator, cocoa bod, knows irrigation is critical. officials want to increase annual yields by $50000.00 tons to a total of $1500000.00 tons without clearing more jungle and without using boar holes. ball whose during the dry season, it doesn't yield much list. i'm going to use streams and perry now, what tussles and we're going to do for now. $4000.00 actus says intern. round 500

kilometers away in silver crone adam of hussein, ease, home village. the farmers are discussing how they can benefit from the program and anyone wanting an irrigation system from coco bad who has to pay back the costs over a number of years, which can be a big challenge for one individual. we're all of our youths here. those are who farmers, i so does that as you put out the asif into groups, it will help us creating a cooperative. but until then, adam of who seine is trying to get as much out of his plantation as possible. we have just seen how the correlation of cocoa in gonna can be improved, but in the wider cocoa industry, there are still too many examples of ecological over exploitation. so what about giving up chocolate? from time to time?

we made some innovator then germany, who are found to st. alternative a well without chocolate, simply unimaginable from many people. the average german eats almost 13 kilos of the sweet stuff each year. but what you see here on the conveyor belt isn't really chocolate. close to munich suit technologist anna alina cook is hard at work. com producing nicola, a vague and chocolate without coco either hopped on that he had bounced on the main difference with our nicu. or is that we use oats instead of cocoa being havana and on what the in terms of the process. it's very similar to using coco warner, the 5 based fermentation of him and then drying, and then the actual roasting process items to her. so the outs are fermented using specially cultivated yeasts, then a co chocolate also contains out flour, sugar and ground erroneous berries. shade butter helps create the smooth texture

this combination and shows no co as environmental footprint is 90 percent smaller than that of conventional chocolate. that's because most cocoa is grown in west africa in ghana and ivory coast, in particular, producing just one kilogram of conventional chocolate generates up to 45 kilos of c o. 2. the outs used in the production of nicola can be sourced locally cutting out the need for shipments from africa. but could this v inversion threaten the livelihoods of african cocoa farmers? and most of all the other i probably won't be the reason coco farmers, peters fewer beans in the future are called that will be caused by climate change. because of it gets $1.00 degrees hotter events and up to 50 percent of that is growing years will cease to exist because it will simply be to drive to cultivate cocoa popular for columbo. but if only half as much coco can be produced. will chocolate become an expensive luxury for the few traditional chocolate

manufacturers idle is not taking any chances their testing whether the fake chocolate can be processed in the same way as chocolate made with cocoa and are coming up. i will say here you can see that there are no fatty edges and no streaks, so we can actually continue to the next step in the process of the bottom. mcmakin, even the green button. yes. the green feld. pray lines, shaped like slices of cake and one of his idols best sellers. nicola scores highly in terms of sustainability and health. the staunch contained in the outs means that 30 percent less sugar needs to be added to the mixture. if you haven't, you still see a vehicle from all. i don't think that it will push a trop, laid out with the market, and that's not no co his goal either. but it's

a good alternative for people who are looking to reduce their carbon footprint to, to or not, even if you're looking for a young, environmentally and health conscious crowd got any sta in munich, is the place to go at least half of all coffee or does he a request out to or almond milk is the perfect place to test nicola on it's target demographic. hi. hi. can i offer you a piece of coco, free chocolate, amanda, and what's in it then? you saw it's made with, oh, this push. i never say no to chocolate. it fagan dental, shlomo. it's surprisingly sweet. yeah. really sweet. i didn't expect that in class. what there's a type of butter in there. right. so she che butter. how does that? does it taste like macadamia you who was like shay butter? smells and body lotion, taps on. i tried a lot of vague and chocolates and i'm usually not

a fan because they're made with rice and i can taste it. i went but this is really good. the things make to me, that's why i like it. i always drink goat, malcolm, which i was like, it's your taste good. i'd like another piece. can i have another nicola is still in the testing phase, but in early 2023. the sustainable chocolate should be available in stores. back in africa, we had over to ruin deaf after the 1994 genocide boosted to run the refugees. what fled the country? returned home. fossils of damned so i tube in the arca, jiro national park because they had nowhere else to go. they also brought their life stock with that it became a big problem for the park and eats protection much of the forest was cleared to obtain land for agriculture and also embracing. now many animals were hunted on

killed, some wildlife species even went extinct. poaching on numerous conflicts with the local population, only made the situation more complicated. now things seem to be changing. we paid a visit to the park and also it's people with an elephant. so buffalo's a decade ago wildlife sightings like these were re un wanders, a car garage, national ha janvier she's a mana, enjoys find in animals to shoot visitors. black rhinos and lions were also re introduced in the park until 2010. it was open season for coaches here, cattle heard as like the animals grease, the grassland cleans and killed any lions that attacks their life. between one and time zone, you are the one over the porch us. i cannot say why i

can say that i did to side the store, but we did my father on a bus. we used to, to italy, to select bush from it's as we so as we are sitting tomatoes by. but by this time to see someone sitting bush mit, it's like it possible in the aftermath of the 1994 genocide, many tootsies who fled to uganda, tanzania, and booty returned to rwanda and settled in. i can get the live from hurting. and the seal of bush meat at a point when 2 thirds of the park was inhabited and porch was rampant. the government finally stepped in to protect the wildlife, the other 3rd, roughly 1120 square kilometers. was fin stove before and then there was a lot of pushing and pushing means killing animals. the puzzle to disappear in one way or another. and that's where the government could appoint african box to come in to restore it to manage it effectively. the pock management included the

returning tutsis in the plant from the very beginning, about $650.00 of them work us park rangers entre guides. 250. how full time positions like john via, she's a monopoly. locals are allowed to fish in the parks. large leaks. but only if the joint cooperative. in return. all members receive a monthly stipend. john ve. she's a mana, has we launch a call for its years? we used to book the, the fishing in it, which can cause cause more fish the me themselves, fish, actually big fish. so that to conceal dislike emptied by now or by using the appropriate fishing. and else we are catching the fusion which are much white enough. and then this more fish kind of passed through,

then it's the fish is then sold to the community at reduced rates for about one you repeat killer instead of the usual for euro's that makes illegal fission less attractive. in addition, the cummins is living here, share 10 percent of the parks revenue in 2022. that amounted to about $470000.00 units. that money can be used to build schools, hospitals, and wells. this gives locals including the fisherman and incentive to care for the environment. a martin, the kritisha total, the hon. huh. we have practices in place to protect the environment when we efficiently lakes the fishing sites are spread out like lima has its own. it was only cash or bigger fish and in the limited amount of time you do with a grid care to maintain the environmental delay on the nature of hawk. if it was only one destruction here own highly cool, the hun omnibus saw honey tongue. environmental protection is,

as he talked to schools to ensure such devastation never happens again. teaching the kids is a label of love for job, eat, and yet quick learners. but he has no suitable where the thought on you idea we go many products, you were from families of cultures. and we thought that how life is that this awareness has really changed on the signing of environmental protection. you owe us a few days ago. i saw boucher taking an animal from the heart of a cordial socrates right away. that was impossible by default. why lockwood, if you are not formal here in the past decade, oh chin has dropped dramatically. it's a clear indication that the conservation efforts are succeeding. it's my responsibility to teach my neighbors, to sure to show them the goods of the nature to show them why we have to protect the nature. he sees the results every day. wildlife populations are

group to day. there are some 100 elephants. i could get right is currently the only parking rwanda that is home to africa's iconic big 5. and that attract tourists this year. the pock welcome to 40000 visitors almost as many as before the pandemic. and now the animals have no reason to fear humans. only seeing, as you might being to rec, die they would escape run for life, but now cause the packers were protected. no 40. they feel safe. although it's not the size, it once was preserving the area of the national park, as certainly been beneficial to both wildlife and local residents. maybe this park could become

a road bundle for other national parks too. i'm impressed with what they've done. well, that's all for this week. thank you for watching. bye bye for me in nigeria. don't forget to check out our social media channels if you want to know more right to us see next week and do take care. bye bye from uganda. in a with 03,
