ah, welcome to talk to him about hackers and paralyzed me to your societies. computers that oh sure you and governments that go crazy for your data. we explain how these technologies work, how they can only go wilson for. and that's how they can also go terribly. what you know, new to ah, ah, welcome to global 3000 pollutants, 3 fishing electric boats on lake victoria.
12:31 am
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 ecosystems that at the point of no return now and checked, carbon pollution is forcing golds will formidable on a frog, marched to destruction. now, the facts are undeniable. these abdication of lee, the sheep is criminal. the intergovernmental panel on climate change is latest report off as a sharp wake up cold. 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 for
12:32 am
our oceans and sees a heating up becoming more polluted and ever more acidic. can we still save these ecosystems? we head 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 o 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,
12:33 am
o 2 emissions dissolve in 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 konstantin 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 am
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 there 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 reefs resist climate change by investigating how to actually toughen coral reefs with. and so some of that
12:35 am
the strategies people are using is, are taking corals that are what we call express hardened. so they're better able to deal with ocean warming and actually transplanting and moving them from those areas to other areas. with a hope 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 corals 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 mit corals, more resistant to eyes and temperatures. for example,
12:36 am
selectively breathing to toughen up the pol up animals. or alternatively, tinkering with the algae that give coral their colors. the micro get a live inside the carl tissue. sweet. 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 l gate evolve. madeline run up and used this approach to create heat resistant 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 tool box 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 am
reefs are incredibly sensitive to warming waters in 2018. the intergovernmental panel on climate change warned that even if the world limits global warming to $1.00 degrees, coral reefs could decline 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 fight to stop climate change, the fight to save coral reefs is doomed, not in the distant future, but within just a few decades. coral reeves 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 am
ah, they're small and made of plastic sashes. these little packets might be handy, but they quickly land in the garbage bin, and they don't ross. in all web special, we chant the journey of such a sashay from the origins of the raw materials it's made from to its ends on the rubbish heap. we find out why the number of such haze 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 ets, 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 reporter eulley america, headed to kenya while local fishers are using climate friendly boats.
12:39 am
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. auto renew is 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 run it through tubes. it might order me get contact with her manila, this 1st tree, all the gear. so moving you to gum cumbersome reviews. one you just do just automatically come up with a mac. the fishermen use soda lamps to mark out the area where they plan to cast their large net. with the lights slowly attracts the fish to the surface.
12:40 am
then in the early morning, they pull up the neck. the nights are long on the lake, only after 12 hours due, the fisherman returned to me again. a beach in the town of m. b t r a t n a share the proceeds of the cat with the other fisherman, after deducting expenses, he only has the electric motor and batteries on loan from a company called a softball liberty. every morning he returns the used bachelors, 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. martha challenge rubric on the guitar lessons for piano, expecting jeremy to the 1st page to go back to the school. so we have to look new
12:41 am
for the advocacy about to come 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 call the rescue number that we can resolve on encore. 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 his keyboard to go pull them back or maybe change something a component of the engine for that matter. the batteries are equipped with gps, track his so that the boats can be precisely located in case of emergency a. so we'll 1st started testing at system in 2017. but everything was delayed by
12:42 am
pandemic. in the meantime, more than 15 fishermen have signed a contract with the company. in america, every new customer receives a free training session. so it depends on the capital 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 motor was it got closed. joshua america has been involved. what since the stars and understands with the fishermen need. the company, lou lou lou will need to to do some modification on only the list of that. the little mortgagee cover. luca, i'll official, man, most of them try to go find the stance a silver is working to improve the situation, but 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,
12:43 am
batteries will make them more duleigh. so that also we might, 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 the lake you want to go far. we give you full batteries, you want to go shut our 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 in 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 e mobility in kenya. the aim is to organize a lobby urging politicians to promote electric vehicles. people are excited
12:44 am
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 $25000.00, close 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 silva cypress from the lake. and there catch quotas have also declined in recent years. jared or tina is wife and mother take care of the cat every morning. first drying 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 am
fees for their, for children. and i've even managed to build a 2nd, but derek atlanta wants to equip this one with an electric motor too. he has a plan for his family. get my father on so selfish a month. then now he's mere fishing. then one of my children saw out of this one. i'm praying, god really that my children know to be fishing was so be suited of us or another system. that's why now i'm so put in the do cushion provide a little additional from bare b if they're employed, they can change my our life. jared, atlanta has already persuaded some other fishermen to switch to electric mountains . but he and a syllable as still among the pioneers of e mobility and it will take many more like them to see a benefit to like victoria and its fish.
12:46 am
oh for 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 are working together to revive some of that old traditions. and that means bringing back the bison. while rounding up these bison, robbie magnon needs to move fast. he's responsible for more than 50 bulls cows, yearlings, and caps. turkey dog, good girl trying to think you can hardly think of background
12:47 am
before their journey to their new home animals have to pass one last health test. i work these guys every day. i know how graff with them here at the ford pick. reservation in montana. ranchers are preparing the bison for distribution to indigenous tribes. for years, magnen has been working hard to ensure they can from the prairie. again, they're vitally important to many native americans. ah, he'll, he'll fight everything in here. some more get nervous for you. they, they, they, they had stressed out very fast so you want to work on quick as possible. so you know how a heart attack, how do you try unit test m u m out? lemme go. the reservation has invested a lot of money in this facility to comply with the regulations
12:48 am
only after up to 3 years of quarantine and many blood tests are the vice in permitted to be transported to other states. though the still wild animals are reluctant to let that happen. they. oh oh wow. the oh boy. yeah. got it to a high viewed as it is. yeah. very very. they're telling you what you wonder, they, what they're testing the vices bud for brucellosis bacteria. a disease originally brought over by candle from europe, which infected native bison to a conventional cattle. don't have the bacteria, but farmers feared 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, has a vein that runs down the sale of it. okay. the then and, and you,
12:49 am
this has one not yet. not yet. i'll say any would. yeah, no, yeah. each animal is meticulously documented. biologist, megan davenport of the inter tribal buffalo council says there's no evidence that by st pose a threat to cows. they've gone through 15 or 16 tests at this point in their life. there is never been a positive reason. after the 1st phase of quarantine, which is literally just like the 1st female, this program in there on your 3 year. 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 licences. the other is a cultural herd. only tribal members are permitted to hunt up each herd as 10
12:50 am
square kilometers of land bordered 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 crater put us on there. we were done, were, you know, 100 survive as humans. so, he had to buffle 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. their re fear that buff all take their grazing honor, which is not really true. because buffer all was they call all year out for food. they do in one day with care who were not really in competition with them. and this
12:51 am
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, yeah. oh, yeah. bob, lori, except of all 4 of the old overtures and hot with 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. 2 native american tribes hope to
12:52 am
establish their own herds with these bison. the cattle truck is the final, her muffler really is wild like just a year now. car and every other of these large north american animals do that. they have to be moved on tracks this way because there's no tolerance for unity walking their 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, target we're done. oh yeah, dr. on journey local they should be good
12:53 am
with a traditional blessing for a good 20 hours of non stop driving. every few months they transport more by seconds. one more step in its slow return. global. i have 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 i have
12:54 am
a little brother and sister. i like to play with my little brother and tease him, but we close the tell him everything is super is are you happy with a generally good? i like school, especially my new and good. is there a song? i feel good there because the teachers listened to me. these are gone on thursdays, i have online classes which helped me improve my computer skills. i don't have that before going spicy. ah. some work done in my free time. i like to watch youtube videos of funny ones,
12:55 am
or dance videos to dance and exercise to in with secure if i food makes me sad in visual i seeing all the st. kitts southwick, 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 while. ah oh, thank you so much. gotten better is that there's more freedom to express yourself by feel my gum on me and my grandmother wasn't allowed to express herself or where what she wanted to know by this have you. but i can dress how i want miracle and say what i think you were doing when i get to schedule.
