more than 30 percent of the world population, very simple. that facility that's very convenient for the chinese after all the portal before their exclusive use, but i use the mediterranean as potomac 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. we have all that life. well the winners and losers. globalization, where do we stand? starts january 5th on d, w. ah ah ah, welcome to global 3000 pollutant free fishing electric boats on lake victoria. the big come back,

bison a returning to the american prairie and catastrophic di, off coral reefs on the brink of extinction. the latest report on climate change has the un sounding the alarm, many echo systems that at the point of no return now and checked, carbon pollution is forcing the world's most formidable on a frog, march the destruction. now, the facts are undeniable. these abdication of leadership is criminal. the intergovernmental panel on climate change is latest report off as a sharp wake up call. around 3.6 of the almost 8000000000 people on earth live in regions severely threatened by climate change. temperatures continue to rise. 2021 was one of the hottest years since records began. global heating has dramatic consequences for people and wild life. extreme weather is becoming more common. aah!
12:32 pm
our oceans and sees a heating up becoming more polluted and ever more acidic. can we still saved these ecosystems? we hedge beneath the waves. coral reefs are unlike anywhere else on earth, their home to mind blowing, biodiversity, the world's reefs are shown here with red dots. they cover less than one percent of the ocean floor, but they actually support over a quarter of all marine life considering these staggering statistics. it's easy to forget that they're actually built from tiny animals, coral polyps, corals oh, a great deal of their magic and their beautiful color to a complex cooperation between organisms. algae live in the polyps, tissues and provide nutrients to the coral in exchange for protection. but this delicate teamwork is under threat from climate change. c o 2 emissions dissolve in
12:33 pm
the seas, making a waters more acidic and weakening coral skeletons. and that's not all. as global temperatures, sore, coral reefs suffer through ever more frequent and intense ocean heat. waves. extreme temperatures caused the algae to produce harmful chemicals, prompting the coral polyps to kick them out. this is coral bleaching where vibrant polyps turn white from heat stress. a process that can eventually prove fatal and global warming is already driving vast, bleaching events to day. my son is far as i told you, it's possible that his kids may never see a car reef. it really scares me to think of a world without coral, reese, sherry constantine of the nature conservancy has established a large scale conservation project in the eastern caribbean. the goal was to protect corals and other ecosystems while still enabling some tourism and fishing
12:34 pm
in specific areas. the fact that the community was so involved in the designation the design of these areas, that is why it was so successful. there are also plenty of ways to enhance conservation efforts. like these take playing underwater sounds to look back. fish for one slightly surprising example. and they're is evidence that by shielding reefs from local stresses, marine protected areas, build resilience in the face of ocean, a certification and rising temperatures. so we have to have multiple strategies in addition to marine protected areas. this is lizzy mccloud whose global coral reefs lead at the nature conservancy. researchers like lizzie mccloud, are going one step further in the quest to help reeves resist climate change by investigating how to actually toughen coral reefs with. and so some of that
12:35 pm
the strategies people are using is, are taking corals that are, we call it stress hardened, so they're better able to deal with ocean warming and actually transplanting and moving them from those areas to other areas with the hopes that they'll pass along that trait to their offspring and help the corals in that new area be better able to cope with warming. one way of doing this is to find naturally heat resistant quarrels that have survived hot waters before into transplant them from one reef to another. and these aren't the only cutting edge techniques other teams are also hoping to toughen up the individual corals themselves. in my research, we are mostly focusing on increasing the tolerance of corals to heat. this is ecological geneticist, madeline van up. and she's investigating a range of approaches to make corals more resistant to rising temperatures. for
12:36 pm
example, selectively breeding, to toughen up the pall of animals. or alternatively, tinkering with the algae that give coral their colors. the micro, i'll get a lift inside the carl tissue. we can, they come out of the coral and most of these can be cultures in the lab. and in the lab, we can increase the rate by which these al gate evolve. madeline went up and used this approach to create heat resists in algae, which when put back into polyps, created more heat resistant corals. so if we combine all of these approaches, is that it will we be able to save these unique ecosystems from climate change? if we implemented every tool in our toolbox today from marine protected areas, reducing pollution using some of these more active interventions, stress hardening or manipulating the genetics of quarrels. it will not be enough to save cor, reeves, if we do not reduce emissions that is absolutely central. the truth is that coral
12:37 pm
reefs are incredibly sensitive to warming waters in 2018. the inter governmental panel on climate change warned that even if the world limits global warming to $1.00 degrees, coral reefs could declined by 90 percent. if temperatures increased by 2 degrees, that figure is 99 percent or higher. but the world could heat up by even more than this, given our emissions path. if we don't bite to stop climate change, the fight to save coral reefs is doomed, not in the distant future, but within just a few decades. coral reefs could be the 1st ecosystem entirely lost to the climate crisis. our environmental decisions around the world, whether that's reducing plastic use or limiting global warming, could make all the difference for the future of the world's reefs.
12:38 pm
this small and made of plastic sashes. these little packets might be handy, but they quickly land in the garbage bin and they don't roles. in all web special, we chant the journey of such a sachet from the origins of the ro materials it's made from to its ends on the rubbish heap. we find out where the number of sessions is growing and why they're so lucrative for businesses and so disastrous for our planet. find out more at d, w dot com slash plastic lake. victoria is the biggest lake in africa, around 30000000 people live near ritz, and many of them depend on it for their livelihoods. but population growth has contributed to over fishing and pollution, threatening the health of the lake. but there are solutions for global ideas. our reports are usually america headed to kenya when local fishers are using climate
12:39 pm
friendly boats. as dusk fools, jared utter know, hits out on to lake victoria. since he started using an electric motor, he and his team no longer have to breathe im exhaust fumes. and it's not as noisy either. or tina was one of the few fishermen here who started using an electric motor last year. it's much easier before he was constantly having to change gears or so. you have to route careful, robert or bella dublin. so really through tubes it might, ought of me get contact with her manila you the 1st tree all the gear. so removing you'd have gum cumbersome reviews, one just due to just automatic 3rd come up with the mac, the fishermen use soda lamps to mark out the area where they plan to cast their
12:40 pm
large net. with the lights, slowly attracts the fish to the surface. then in the early morning, they pull up the neck. the nights are long on the lake, only after 12 hours do the fisherman returned to me again, a beach in the town of him better. a gina shares the proceeds of the couch with the other fishermen. after deducting expenses, which he only has the electric motor and batteries on loan from a company called a softball laboratory. every morning he returns the used batteries, and in the evening he receives a freshly charged set. a silver rents out the motors for the equivalent of around $38.00 euros a month. the batteries cost 7 years 50 per day. a lot of money for fishermen. here . there's a challenge with regarding the guitar lessons for piano, expecting them to the stress, to pay, to go back to the school. so we have to look new for the advocacy about to come
12:41 pm
pick up. the dutch started a sober, had to do a lot of math to develop this business model. they saw the batteries and motors from germany. here in kenya, they have technicians who take care of the repairs and maintenance. they also offer a 24 hour service. if there are problems on the water, the fishermen have to calling their rescue number that we can resolve on court. but sometimes when their technical issues are not in a position to be solved during that time, we have to, we have to send out as to what to go, pull them back, or maybe change something, a component of the engine for that matter. the batteries are equipped with gps track is so that the boats can be precisely located in case of emergency a so well 1st started testing at system in 2017. but everything was delayed by
12:42 pm
pandemic. in the meantime, more than 15 fishermen have signed a contract with the company. in tamaqua it, every new customer receives a free training session. so it depends on the coffee table in just a few days. they learned the most important things. that reversible theory were then practice on the water to get used to the emotion. when was it got closed? joshua rocha has been involved since the start and understands what the fisherman need. the company we lou lou lou will need to to do some more difficult on only the list of that the little nobody cover alaska, our fishermen, most of them tried to go find the stars as silva is working to improve the situation that it's made contact with companies and kenya and uganda that refurbish used batteries. these could be rented out to the fisherman at a cheaper rate. in the 2nd life batteries will make them more duleigh,
12:43 pm
so that also we much, we mimic the current operations of our customers. but if, if a customer want to go far, we give them more bodies, then we charge this rich, i'd feed, but, but to lake you want to go far. we give you full batteries, you want to go short distance. we give you one or 2 batteries and you pay for what you are used. a sobel as the 1st company in kenya to invest an e, mobility on water. and one of the few in general on the countries a market. electric mobility is still in its infancy here. there are some electric cars and buses and even some e bikes. warren, on don gay rides, one of them. he's a member of a e. m. d a, an association that provides a platform for the nearly 20 companies investing in emer banassi and kenya. the aim is to organize a lobby urging politicians to promote electric vehicles. people are excited
12:44 pm
about immobility, endo petite, that he brings. it has tremendous environment of benefits. but unless we have the right incentives to allow for the final price and the value to the customer to be affordable than immobility might just as well be another illusion that will struggle, that gets towards around 25000. both are out on lake victoria every day, and many of them belong to kenyan fishermen who used combustion engines, which pollute the lake and home the fish population. often the fishermen only get small silver cypress from the lake. and there catch quote has have also declined in recent years. jared or tina is wife and mother take care of the cat every morning. first drawing it and then selling it as quickly as possible. the fish are the main source of income for the family of 12. they also use the money to pay the school
12:45 pm
fees for their, for children. and they've even managed to build a 2nd boat. darren atlanta wants to equip this one with an electric motor too. he has a plan for his family. get my father one source of fishermen. then now is mere fishing . then what of my jewelry saw out of this one? i'm praying god willing that my child i know to be fishing nursing. so these to do their best to another system does, why? now i'm support in the do cushion provide a would additional from bare b if they're employed to be can change my our life. jared aquino has already persuaded some other fishermen to switch to electric motors. but he and a silvo are still among the pioneers of e mobility and it will take many more like them to see a benefit to like victoria and his fish
12:46 pm
ah thousands of years. the indigenous peoples of north america inhabited a vast region from coast to coast to day native americans make up just 2 percent of the us population, a small number of on reservations, most of them in poverty. now some native groups a working together to revive some of that old traditions. and that means bringing back the bison. while rounding up these bison, robbie magnen needs to move fast. he's responsible for more than 50 bulls cows, yearlings, and caps. for kid gold gazelle trying to think you can kind of think of
12:47 pm
a little background before their journey to their new home. these animals have to pass one last health test. i work these guys every day. i know i'll grab a view of them here at the ford peck reservation in montana ranchers are preparing the bison for distribution to indigenous tribes. for years, magnen has been working hard to ensure they can roam the prairie again. they're vitally important to many native americans. ah he'll, he'll fight everything in here. so morgan murphy, the daisy that he had stretched out very fast for you, want to work on quick as possible for you know, how a heart attack, how do you try you and test him? get him out, let him go. the reservation has invested a lot of money in this facility to comply with regulations.
12:48 pm
just only after up to 3 years of quarantine and many blood tests are the bison permitted to be transported to other states. though the still wild animals are reluctant to let that happen. they also offer your boy to a high if you do. yeah, very very. they're telling you what you wonder what they're testing the bison bud for brucellosis bacteria. a disease originally brought over by cattle from europe, which infected native bison to a conventional cattle. don't have the bacteria, but farmers fear their cows might come into contact with bison and contract it. so there are strict rules and lots of testing. this veterinarian has a routine vein that runs down the sale that okay,
12:49 pm
did it and anything happen when hearing all just had one? not yet. no, nothing would. yeah, no, yeah, yeah. each animal is meticulously documented. biologist, megan davenport of the intertribal buffalo council says there's no evidence that by saint pose a threat to cows. if ontario, 15 or 16 tests at this point in their life, there is never been a positive reading after the 1st phase of quarantine, which is literally just like the 1st feeling in this program. and they're on your 3 or so now. robbie magnon knows what it's like to wait for the lab results. the director of fort peck's fish and wildlife department shows us the reserves pride and joy to herds of bison. the commercial herd brings in money through hunting licenses. the other is
12:50 pm
a cultural herd. only tribal members are permitted to hunt each herd as 10 square kilometers of land, quartered by a fence that can withstand the basins brute force. though macklin calls these creatures buffalo, claiming only politicians or scientists say bison or the greater put us on there. we were dumb will you know what are survive as humans. so he had the buffer come up and take care of us. and they also survived many native american, c, bison, as 4 legged family members who are vital to their identity. but from the cattle industries point of view, they are bad for business. there are a fear that buff all take their grazing honor, which is not really true because bottle was they call all year out for food. they deal in one day with care who were not really in competition with them. and this
12:51 pm
was big enough for both of us to live, but people won't see it. it's the big deck. and it's minus $25.00 degrees celsius. these base and come from yellowstone national park. when huge herds were slaughtered in the 19th century, a few 100 animals found refuge there. that's why genetically pure bison still exist today. oh, oh. yeah. oh, gloria, except of all, for a hold of a jury and a judge, a lot better than life. the results have come back negative. no bison have brucellosis bacteria. the 1st truck is going to washington state. the 2nd to oklahoma. there's a whole family and each one with bulls, cows, and calves. it's stressful for all concerned to native american tribes hope to
12:52 pm
establish their own herds with these bison. the cattle truck is the final, her muffler really. it is wild like just a year and now car and every other of these large north american animals, they have to be moved on tracks this way because there's no tolerance, realty walking there and their own 2 feet 4 feet robbie magnon, dreams, that one day bison will roam free across the prairie again. he knows it's just a dream, but he's taking big risks to make it happen. in the end, they're all safe and sound man and animal ha ha. took over. we're done. oh yeah, a doctor on journey joke. all that should be good with
12:53 pm
a traditional blessing for a good 20 hours of non stop driving. every few months they transport more by said one more step in its slow return. blue. i am a global team who this week our global team comes from ivory coast with my name's i should get to the re, i'm 15. i come from molly, but i live in ivory coast. ah. with her i have
12:54 pm
a little brother and sister. i like to play with my little brother and tease him, but we're close. i tell him everything and supposedly happy with a generally good. i like seal, especially my new and good isn't his own. i feel good there because the teachers listened to me. these are gone on thursdays i have online classes which helped me improve my computers because i don't have that before going to pricing. ah,
12:55 pm
somewhat boy, in my free time, i like to watch youtube videos of funny ones or dance videos to dance and exercise to in with secure if i what makes me sad in visual i seeing all the st. kitts gothic some have no family made others do but live on the streets since they have no home or money by the amazing or by the way. ah oh thank you sir. was gotten better, is that there's more freedom to express herself by feel my goal. now my grandmother wasn't allowed to express herself or where what she wanted to buy this vehicle. but i can dress how i want me to go and say what i think should be done in when i get
