ah, what's the status of human rights and social justice in what's called the world's largest democracy with with is the moment unleash on mileage boss and re imagined these teachings or elements to us. ah, gandhi's legacy starts january 28th on b, w. a . hello and welcome to a new edition of a co africa. the weekly environment show brought to you by daughter bella in

germany and t, v. and uganda and channels debbie here in nigeria. my name is crystal omes are with me, is my charming co host sogba. hello from capella, i am sandra, twin over you. wonderful to have you with us. and hopefully we're going to inspire you. we bit climate heroes and innovative ideas to improve the environment and also clean up nature. coming up on the show. we had to somalia wesley, a drought is making life difficult for the holidays. we also visit farmers in britain while reduced the amount of nathan cole's emit and go to gambia, where researchers of teamed up with local people to collect climate data on the gambia river electron mobility, even starting to take off in africa. many new initiatives are looking for ways to expand the sustainable technology. now in some cities,

among public transport is getting on board. well, we've been living in mobility couple solutions, and kenya is really taking the blank by loans in climate friendly bolts. couple listed on leg victoria with as dusk fools, jared or tiana heads 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 jenny 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 be careful with stubborn. so any throw tapes it might, ought of me get contact with her manila you this past

tree all the gear. so removing you'd have gum cumbersome reviews, one just due to just automatic 3rd come up with him and he only has the electric motor and batteries on loan from a company called or so. boom number. every morning he returns the used batteries, and in the evening he receives a freshly charged set. a sofa, rents out the motors for the equivalent of around $38.00 euros a month. the batteries cost 7 years 50 per day. the dutch startup, as silva 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 their 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. in america, you don't need every new customer receives a free training session. so it depends on the cut is little in just a few days. they learned the most important things, that reversible theory will then practice on the water to get used to the motor. when was the mach, joshua america has been involved since the stars, and understands what the fishermen need? the company re lou lou lou will need to all to do some modification on only the list that i have that the little mortgagee cover. laker our fishermen. most of them

tried to go find the stars. 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, batteries will make them more duleigh 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 chide this rich, i'd feed but, but to the 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 e markets. 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 amos to organize the lobby, urging politicians to promote electric vehicles. people are excited about e, mobility, 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 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 catch 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 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 children know to beat fishing mercy. so these to do their best to another system does, why? now i'm so put in a 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, a 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. it is an encouraging start setting, a good example and spreading the wide ease of gret, which is park a positive change for the environment. absolutely. sandra. other have another example of that from england. the toss family knows that cows don't just supply us with meta milk. the, our digestive process emits lots of the greenhouse gas methane after trying out various ways to reduce those emissions. they've come up with a promise in solution kills, exude a certain calm. they're also very intelligent and a key source of food for humanity. johnny with towers have

a special bond with these animals. father and son, a dairy farm is in northern england. their only concern is that they cows produce large quantities of me thing, a potent greenhouse gas. wheaton solve the problems that we've got within the industry. and it's affecting upon and about way we can't produce milk and people can drink milk. we need to solve these problems as an industry for the industry to carry on because it is not serving the planet well wishing of it. there is some 1500000000 cows on the planet. they produce a 3rd of the world's methane emissions, mainly through their belching. this makes them a climate hazard. so the towers are experimenting with a new type of feed supplement made from garlic and citrus. it influences enzymes in the cow, stomach, and intestine. ah,

the result is astonishing. the kinds of mit left me think the toe is received regular visits from other farmers, an agricultural expert like these representatives from a livestock auction house. the towers want their visitors to recommend the new product so that more farmers can reduce their carbon footprint. is about 50 percent of most farms. carbon footprint is that and certainly if animation so it would then knock your, in fact the knock our product down by about 15 percent in terms of the overall carbon footprint. this is the product we're, we've been feeding. so the galaxy citrus that shot is fairly strong smelling m. if you want to have a low where they don't get too close got. so i'll knock your socks off, but clearly the mole tentative to cow's milk, such as soy oat, an almond milk have been gaining popularity in recent years. that's

a trend the towers find very concerning. their family has lived in lancashire, for centuries. farmers, he is say the soil is too poor for most crops, but perfect for girls to graze on protecting the air is something farmer john towers sees as his spare responsibility. i fail, i am very fortunate to be working with the younger generation of my family, who are probably more foresighted than i am. and there could see the change coming faster than i could see common. and they've driven our business in that direction to face the challenge and to adapt our market to what our consumer is actually looking for. feeding the garlic supplements to that $400.00 pounds cost. the tower

is about 20000 euros here. it's how is that the milk will be a part of emissions trading and future, allowing farm is to offset the additional costs. he has many more plans for the future. i want to put solar panels on and i want to have electric chances. and i want to let you know, however, have a career vill again so that i can capture them a fan and use it for instructors all and things cost money. and if we do them all at once, run out of cash. and i'm, we're a terrible example even more than ideas we're going to work. and so it's a case if sometimes raining in your ambitions or making sure you got partnerships with other companies also have the same kind of values issue. john, how is says many farm is our old school. i'm reluctant to change, but father and son aim to do everything in their power to make other dairy farmers more climate conscious. and they have one good argument in their favor. their milk doesn't taste of garlic at all. according

to the european statistical office, they are brit european generated. just shy of 180 killers of pocket in waste. in 2019 figures varied from each country of course as the to rate of recycling. in many places, a big contributor to the waste heat comes from the food, the lever sector. but business is a starting to take a proactive approach to the issue. here is the 6 doing your bits ha, pizza boxes, beverage cubs, and other takeaway, try spill out of the way. spins in many cities. it's a huge burden on the environment because next to none of it can be recycled. $770.00 tons of such packaging is tossed out every day in germany alone. but some restaurants and startups have started providing customers with re usable

alternatives. our regular customers love it. they pay us more deposit, get their food ready to serve and bring back the teams the next day, circling and elsewhere. both containers like these can be both for feed ryan app. after you use customers have up to 14 days to return them. the hester account, yet it is the manufacturer guarantees 200 cycles. miss munos when they get worn out there, recycled into a new materials here at a grocery store in cologne. an app releases a bowl from a dispenser which customers then fill up for themselves, only the content await and paid for. after being returned to a collection point, the containers are picked up and taken to be cleaned. for now, initiatives like these a voluntary but very say to change as of next year, restaurants and cafes in germany will be required to offer their customers

reasonable containers for food and beverages. mm hm. and how about you? if you are also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us or tweet hash tag doing your bit. we share your stories. the u. n. word suit program says that somalia faces the very real risk of famine in the common months drought conditions in the whole of africa have grown afo worse. over the past 3 years. millions of large storks of perished in somalia. 30 percent of households of lost at the a hertz since meet 2021. even haughty heat, resistant carmel said died not some her this i had in for some aaliyah's biggest city in the hopes off saving them. it is breakfast time at the bed

a camel farm. on the outskirts of the somali capital mogadishu, one or 2 animals, have found something to chew on, but they are all pretty hungry. all eyes are all the activity at the edge of the enclosure, in the heaps of freshly cut grass leaves, and 3 tis to morsels for the english, but also vital to their health. these nothing to grieve on the cindy ground. a son of did our man, so beer is the fund manager a head. his size typically is more room to room, but space here is limited. there are a lot of the regularly or a couple are you face so many challenges when you bring candles to the see children or not. and also has the animals need to be trained to leave on the small area your cobra. so that requires a lot of patients in experience. the all the other challenges are finding enough

food for the camels in the city and ensuring we are provided the things build get from the dealers. see the nerve, who were all our life. finally, the gate is opened year in the enclosure, the is more than enough for every one. that wasn't always the case when they had had to scrounge for food out on the open plains, just as camels here have done for centuries. where one king good or you will give anybody or when the draught struck the countryside? where camels traditionally leave, there was nothing to graze on and a short fall offering. it forced us to move our animals here to the city on sir la, jr. no, actually. so malia is one of the country's heat, particularly hard by climate change. persistent drought is slowly destroying the traditional grazing length. the vegetation is dying back and water holes or drying out even camels, which can survive long stretches on v, belittle a dying from thirst or hunger. the despair felt by whose st ibrahim was seen in

other head as is growing. by the day their flocks are shrinking. become old simply cannot find enough to eat in the bushland of the lot of billy region in eastern somalia, running february we had us talk a lot about how to get our camel's away from here and find new grazing areas because it hasn't rained in so long drought is everywhere. if it gets worse and we can't feed our camels, we have to abandon them and go to the city to civil children and ourselves. callaghan, the milan, many somalis are moving to the capital to escape the effects of climate change. mogadishu population has doubled, 2400000 people over the last 20 years. it was in that growing market that her son abdulla months, abriya recognized in opportunity. soft alcala, in then cool. not another reason we brought on camels to the c. t is to provide

fresh milk to the people who live in mogadishu and it's surrounding areas. in the past, people have to go to law areas to get it out. i now we can deliver it freshly, milt right here in the ne board annual about his own obama on his looking is done every day in the bed, a camel from much to the displeasure of the young calls. but business takes precedence. the seattle is low holligan level dollar. we sell one liter of our com, no milk for $2.00. and i saw how the album by here we'll see that i, we normally produced 900 to 1000 liters of come know milk every day of school. the 9 unclean on by the lawyer, and this is normal. if demand is high, we increase all new production to meet the needs of our customers and clean on layla come later said al, am all the other. the fresh milk is immediately loaded up and taken to the city.

restaurants in hotels are important. customers come milk is very nutritious impact with vitamins making popular, not just in somalia. with business to me, the better criminal thumb can afford to buy concentrate feeds for the animals. it's an important way of making up for drought related food shortages. being the camels to the city has turned out to be a good move. but not everyone can afford to do the same. so instead, was st. ibrahim was sing plans to move on with his camels, in the hope of finding enough food in water elsewhere, or from somali on the east coast without hurts to the west coast. and cambia was wallace country in midland, africa there 2 people are struggling to adapt to climate change while drought ease a major problem. in many areas, people will leave any rivers may seem fortunate, but increasing me salt water is sipping into fresh water sources. which of course

disrupts the natural ecosystem and even the ability to farm basic crops. now, one initiative is bringing together scientists and the local people to make a very big difference. ah, and one, when he thinks of every change as carefully noted, m u h week cardiac to clarity and to see not david davis collect environmental data from the aquatic on terrestrial echo systems in 6 locations along the gumby river. right now i'm record in the parameters we have here, which is dead. temperature humidity, the wind speed, the wind chill, the air pressure, altitude, due point, and the wind action. the effects of climate change are causing hardship for many who lived near the river. for centuries,

they help subsisted on small scale fishing and farming man groups, which will to salt out of the water made that possible, but duty to rise and sea level and extensive droughts. the reverse salt content got so high, it's killed many cheese. that's been disastrous for farmers like but to mata barrow ha, car or data we used to harvest rice here down, but now they yielded low ambled, went among gross, we're healthy, big nowhere, no problem. so wondering why they are now dead. and our crops are not doing well when they, when enrolled on it. not a lot of research has been done on bio diversity india environments in the gumbo. so that makes predict the impact climate change might have on local ecosystems more difficult. that inspired 10 young scientists to launch the gems initiative jazz's aleck, learning program,

their environmental measurement systems project. and it is the research project lambires colliton environmental data along there were gamez understand this is not an yellow fluctuations happening. but what's a way is almost 1200 kilometers long. so the institutes rely on the support of community based groups and locals, like c double a journalist by trade double works as a citizen scientist, 20 kilometers from the capital banjo. my role as a citizen data collected is to collect data and then send to them every week and also to and some students along with me to also be a gun. know how to collect data i decide to participate in this program. because if you look at this area, you will see that it's already dead. here in the lower river division, the die back is extensive mangrove stamps thought an otherwise empty landscape. live in the coastline exposed. it's no longer possible to maintain fills through

title irrigation from the river. the loss of the man gross also means a loss of habitat and beating ground for fish and other aquatic life. the fresh water fish have moved further upstream with the help of international and deals and volunteers. and so mana double pops to restore de mangrove forest. but with a different, more robust variety, tungsten dead as required, regressing, you should really been able to know the salinity level of, of the water and secondary. i've been able to identify a dispute this of mangrove, re half within our echoes houston. they observe a lot of sort a lag before wendy hours, not 3 salt into sunnyside. but now how is demario ross? i saw tara level, the absolve, lot or so that has made a decrease in salinity level between the woman rice

for too much a barrel. was being quin rise here for 20 years. hawks, the newly planted redman gross will give her crops a fighting chance. y'all, while we thank god, what a new man gross along the river. as they grew less salt will get through gardening, elaine, and while wounded. since august 2021 more than 850000 munger was having planted in the gum down river delta in order to conserve the eco system. the symbiosis of scientific knowledge and local engagement as bare and food quality water is indispensable. and is fisher to life as other people walk hard to protect it? that is all for this edition of equal africa, it is time for me to be do farewell from complex. i and sandra tween odeo and i will definitely be seeing you again next week. and i just like to remind you that vase and other additions of a coup, africa can be viewed online, drop us a line,

and tell us how you like to show or share some of your stories and projects that support the environment where you leave. for now i am chris alam, signing off from nigeria. ah ah ah, ah, with
