when she wants to finish your studies, now you have a sandy's control crane. you can choose to go back or somewhere else. currently, more people than ever on the move worldwide in such a better life. so why do i want to go back to names? yeah. like i do, i have any reason to go by this no reason that's nothing for me that yeah, i believe something great is coming very very soon and yeah, come with gene miller. dont love when nice story in for my fresh reliable news from my friends, wherever they may be a ah. with bill lifestyles of bill then day people require a lot of a they g to produce vot an ag. we've done incredible damage to nature and the

environment, but it is possible to do things differently. welcome to a new edition of a co africa. i am chris, a limbs integral state nigeria. thank you, chris. it is still right there lords of encouraging projects underway to help restore and also protect nature or be showing his some of them in the next half hour. i am sandra, twin over here in camp la gender. on here is a preview of what's in store, passenger boards in legacy help residents circumvent traffic jams. pulpits in germany are transformed into natural or says and solar part is changing rule life in love at garden. going to school every single morning is routine for many children, but for merkel and caesar, it is fundamental to the survival. they are all fund chimpanzees in guinea torching,

and the destruction of habitus have shrunk, she populations, now thousands have been orphaned, and some species are even facing extinction. the chimpanzee conservation center in guinea is trying to help me marco and caesar are leading the way into the bush. they are often to be re chimps rescued from animal traffickers. now they leave at the chimpanzee conservation center. a sanctuary located in the national park of upper major in is central guinea. the country is home to more than 30000 wild western chimpanzees, the largest population in the region. however, the numbers of these great apes with whom we humans here more than 98 percent of our genetic blueprint have declined dramatically in the last 20 years. they now

critically endangered new berkeley, bol cause wrestling. so the main causes of chimpanzee extinction. at the destruction of their habitat, due to human activities and poaching, it was see broken, people kill them with no regard for the law that protects them or solder speak. dylan was in guinea. chimpanzees are often poached for their meat or sold as pets. chimps like michael hoping, seized by the authorities, are brought to the center this sanctuary rehabilitating chimps, and then released them into the wild. around 60 great apes are currently living at the center, which is funded by international organizations and private donors. the teams day gets off to a swinging stacked with a breakfast of fruits and ginger tea to combat the cold,

a routine health and psychological checkup portals since they often arrived suffering from health problems and trauma. then an excursion into the forest helps the young chimpanzees adapt to the wild. la hoarded, bramble w. the forest is important for the cheap ones. either we walk with them through the forest or to local, they can get used to it as it is, their habitat brought out here, they can find food and a place to sleep. very brutal marcus, but full knuckle and his pals to attend to the forest. they need large open spaces to hang out in. yet human activities like agriculture and logging are destroying the national park. the lawful sufficient healthy habitat mean just 20 chimps could be released since 2008 sub because it was on the chimpanzee conservation center, contribute to species protection through rehabilitation and re introduction after over. but i thought by educating the local community,

you know it because it's a community that destroying the environment. so these people need to be educated and sensitized really, and i get on it, don't fish all over it. that's very, very important for a project like this one, represent puerto does that project consistency? doesn't have launch different project. reeves environmental awareness within the communities living in the puck among them is a weekly radio show. i mean, if informed listeners about the box flora and fauna, it's natural resources and how to protect them, you know, do you need occasional program at primary schools inside the park also teaches future generations about the importance of conservation and the threats. chimpanzees faith. since it's taught in 21900, more than 700 students have taken part in this walk. so

vision to the point was the program around this program in schools to teach children while the young, if you truly can, grew up with the idea and also positive information on to others to protect the environment. well, no month to see got the teams, habitat conservation, and education a crucial but saw is providing alternative sources of income that for more sustainable development locally along with the villages and to women's association, the center has created lasting employment opportunities and launched a plastic recycling project which supports more than $300.00 women on this level. and we make so class. and now we also recycle plastic bugs and turned them into laptops. these are little passes. we also saw shopping bugs for the women, so they don't buy plastic bug at the market anymore. in a black or market, it's a win win solution. these projects provide locals with a steady income,

raise environmental awareness, and ease of pressure on the ecosystem. and could soon give marco caesar and the fellow chiefs, enough place to go. ape in the wild, preserving habitats is one sink. but what teeth they've already been destroyed, we ask, can nature still be brought back? no, a hunger for my 2 years has devastated landscapes all over the world in germany, a number of regions and having to cope with the gap in cause left by open peat lick knife mines. no one for my industrial hub and nibbling over some hope that transformation and restoration are indeed possible. the east german village, of course. caution is bustling with summer visitors. it's just 150 kilometer south of berlin and not far from the polish border. the bikes offered at

a cat hoist rental are in high demand, with visitors came to explore the region excited to saint saint her is finally going for a spin. it's been idle, old i wikker started his business here 20 years ago. back then, no one believed that this region authorization or allows it's, as it's known and german could attract any tourists at all. the area was solely associated with a bronco industry. it was a moon landscape like this, the locals thought, echoed jolla was crazy. down below to get fog plus must then sykes, the noise. utah, people kept asking, what do you do? shows people the whole. so the mood was different. back then the wall. i was still a lot of the pips from the ivan coast mines, which i thought some ball the from today, locals are proud of what's happened here is giant. i'm sure. the vast open pits are gradually being transformed into europe's largest lake landscape. once complete,

the lu zation lake district will cover 350 square kilometers. it's helping louse, it's transformed into a green holiday region with broad cycling lanes. hotels and landmarks like the rusty nail, which serves as a reminder of the regents industrial passed from the top of a tower. visitors can observe another new lake in the making the forma open cast. mine is slowly being flooded by ground water. this is shown vast biz, unless we are, it's really something special there. guns, i mean, how many people can, shall you come and lightly new landscape hog what's of if everything goes as planned, this will be finished by 2025. god willingly thought the shore has been developed and stabilized over fall. there's still some work left to do over there and all that should take another year or 2 of the one in its prime,

the coal industry and allows its employed 80000 people. but in the late 19 nineties, the energy sector in germany was restructured. dozens of unprofitable mines were closed. 90 percent of the work has lost their jobs. one in 5 people left the region . only full open cars mines remain active in laws. it's today. but the days on them, but to germany has pledged to phase out coal completely by 2000 said he 8 transforming this mining landscape caused the german state upwards of 250000000 euros last year alone. between 199-220-1610 point 2000000000 euros was spent. lime needs to be added to the lakes to ensure they are not to acid, a, quote, wildlife, and full swim us. last year, more than 30000 tons were required to balance p h levels. then there is maintenance and risk assessment work carried out by g. u. engineers like philip's

auto, is his job to ensure that there are no land slides. after decades of digging, the soil is more loose and can be moved more easily by groundwater. if it rises quickly, you an acoustic oscar luther, which is huge wave was triggered artificially so that land areas could be moved in a very effective way. if there's a landslide happening underneath lowering further and further back, and it's these forces that create the sudden wave. because in, at the bottom here we see trees are knocked over like matched egg. there are very powerful forces at work, all of isms goodbye to good customer. officials only one to these kind of land slides to happen in control circumstances in 2010 this area. so a natural landslide, which is why entries now unauthorized back then several trucks were drowned in the zone. army like wave that drive us only just rescued in time. um and gonna this work will take generations. we still have to make 30000 hector's of land

safe as part of the basic reconstruction work. we need to develop certain technologies, like non invasive blast induced compaction to strengthen the soil. the transformation from what the landscape once was to what it is now is radical, and there is no blueprint on how to do this work. another vision that has come true is the transformation of louse. it's into a tourist destination. that combines green space is felicia and in industrial past that visitors want to learn about be it on this old convey a bridge now surrounded by parks, off renewable energies, or honest, guided to a, with people who are born here. like a cat hika. he observed the rise and fall of the brown, col industry for himself, and he's still shocked by the devastating impact that the last few mines left and

now's it's a still having on the land in gordon, the good norm zia, if i, if myself at the landscape was being destroyed, thus i hope that someone will develop better storage capacities for renewables to increase their uses. it was this over exploitation not the future than the mountains between 40 and 45 percent of germany's energy comes from renewables. fossil fuels like brown coals, still play an important role, but the country is now paving the way for life after the cold. gemini, has created a blueprint that could be of use for other countries that still have that path ahead. well, very interesting. vacationing in a former coal peaks. how cool is that? and if it helps the transition from the fossil fuels, then i'm all for it. i agree, sandra, and moving away from 40 feel,

dumpling jose protect the environment. in some cases, it also saves money, especially when it comes to indoor heat in, in europe during the winter months. just a few 100 kilometers from geminus border in poland. and old ro house was converted with astonishing results. oh, good. one prefab apartment block among many in poland stands out, but other procedures we have car stop here and the people take photos. it is pretty unusual. it was awful to them about it. i'd also recommend trying this to everybody . i know me, but obviously the buildings residents are quite relaxed about the coming winter a little before. but of course i enjoy looking at the generator. it makes electricity and money up. it'll probably get up a finance up with shit. no is

a small town in southern missouri, a. it has one attraction and 19 seventies prefab at number 12 stone sketch street. the balcony sporting solar panels were added on in september, head of the residence association stickney f. krakowski makes his routine rounds. hello good afternoon. nobody did nobody hello. hello. i just wanted to see if for installation is working properly, but was proven. everything's all right on my end, no scratches it was built in correctly. but right now i'm cold. lauderdale, up of all right, let me go back inside. the facade may be an acquired taste, but in the end, that secondary the former call seller, has been converted into an office for the 2 visionaries. as the residents called

building managers, hoping the idea for the innovative energy system came from a simple lack of cash. for yeah, the apple growth, it was a tragedy hit the exile. the power company put us under financial pressure. believe me, i did asked him to let his pe installments or she never thought they just laughed at me. sh. no, well, you don't have any money. send you much of that. give me the impetus. will i be in the name of the blame you both are in spirits of that was back in 2014. soon, a thermal heat pump was installed in the cellar and a solar power system on the roof. all financed by loans from the void ship and contributions from the residence. they succeeded in saving around 80 percent of the energy cost. they used the money, they saved the pay off the loans and even finance new projects, such as the balconies. now the heat, the water, the residents of number 12 sloan scott street, are as good as immune to rising energy prices. well,

everyone else is turning the heat down. they're staying toasty warm. whereas love ya did recently, i was talking to my neighbor. she asked me, well, have you received the increases or well, i also want increases. well, the utilities increases. i spoke no, we haven't been getting those for quite some time now with the victim, denny, suave, a keeps her home at a comfortable 22 degrees celsius. but she could keep it warmer dish will hero with my son tells me. oh it's always nice and warm feeling even in summer. if the days turned a little cooler now. and then you can just send the heat on. i've already suggested that we trade places work and i think he'd actually do it big me, evan as deputy, may be so involved because they live here in the building. and what started out as a financial motivation has since taken on aspects of climate and environmental consciousness. they're building saves nearly 70 tons of c o 2 more than their

neighbors. so group is facial. if we did this to other apartment blocks, and there are $25000.00 and all of poland, couple more than imagine how much we would save this body shop. he's defensive for some 40000 people, die every year from the smog. i'd still be alive is that of a smoke. generally speaking of krakowski is hoping his fellow townspeople will wake up and feel the heat. he is even thinking about running for mayor and the next elections converting, rethinking brick in old habits. these things though, also happening here in nigeria, driving a car or taking a bus to work doesn't make sense. in lagos, the city is struggling with traffic jams, which pollutes the air and thrive residence, patience. but it doesn't have to be that way. check how this weeks doing your bits. ah,

nobody here is going anywhere fast. it's rush hour in lagos, nigeria is largest city. these vehicles are clocking just 17 kilometers an hour on average. oh, the wallet, bon timmy? true. used to be a fisher. but in 1982 he became a boat builder. he makes both cargo and passenger vessels. businesses steady and demand is growing. rather the road would be the reason why so many people are buying boats these days. so is that water transport as faster than road transport? all because i mean by his biggest boats can hold up to 40 passengers a trip that takes 3 hours in bumper to bumper traffic. takes just one on the water . so can i think everybody was going to walk? i'll welcome buck also. so i will

w street and if more of the 5000000 car owners and legos switch from road to boat travel, it would benefit the environment at the moment, we are trying to reduce our insurance, which is coming well for worker's leticia. it really makes use of what that transportation is going to reduce our mission. going by boat costs a bit more than covering the same stretch by bus. but time is money. congestion in the goes is so bad, travelling over water can save you 30 hours a week. and tell about you. if you are also doing your bits, tell us about his visitor website. both send us the tweet. hash tag doing your base. we shall, you'll still raise on next report is also about

reducing emissions. when anti villages are not yet connected to the par grade, residents often have to rely on diesel generators and toxic kerosene lamps. and that is very right, crease around 45 percent of the rural areas in ghana and not connected to the national park leads the residence in the north of the country have come up with their own environmentally friendly solution. reading and learning at night is finally possible in the village of delingo and the upper west region of ghana. the light from the solar lamp extends to dana to evening for these boys. people here say solar lamps on the way of the future until now. so regina honey lucy at to rely on garrison or harvard or lamps? light, which is the suddenly weaker and old star lamps of other disadvantages to the kerosene

lamp produces smola. i'm not too concerned in using the smoke mixes. i. solar lamps are better. so i got those ma'am stuffer, the man who supplies a solar lamps. he found the and geo socialize world wants to replace fossil fuel, lambert, the villages with solar ones. it's all financed by donations from students from new york, develop the technology and lucifer and his fellow campaigners and gonna supply the housing. he assembled most of the lamps himself using simple means a discarded cream, jaw, or handle, made from bicycle, spoke about for wasting, completely changed, and it gives light about 200 r weiss. if it is light lew and gives 40 hours if it is on the high. ready ready it has to be repulsive. it's been used in a countryside. the lamps are built to be maintenance free. have

a long life. the people in the community, this light and a unit, sometimes more than a week before they go to judge by we normally insist that this luncheon is charge wise route so that the battery life will be maintained. the energy for the villages lamp comes from this roof. a solar panel feeds the 12 solum at volunteer. so one ra comfort has been trained to run the system. 12 lamps can be recharged simultaneously, but enough electricity left a charge of fuel cell phones. i t killed the solar system and the luncheons in this community, when someone wants to recharge, they bring it to to do it. when i would, i'm ready to it goes villages around half a dollar a month to johnston, so lamps and cell phones as them tears in marvin lamps. even those were short of

money benefit from the news technology drove. it also helps to protect the environment and we take any pru just like me. so yeah, being so gum i even charcoal because not everyone in the village has ready cash for renewable energy from the sun, wind and geothermal energy make up just one percent of gone as electricity. but the west african country wants to achieve 10 percent fossil free energy production by 2030. according to use a hot rubric, one of gunners lead in experts on renewable energy is going to require a major effort, especially in rural areas. he advocates focusing on simple solutions, most of the innocent finance and why sophisticated like both areas. so we to 12 or system or 2024, we can meet your needs, like lighting in for entertainment,

and then for just the quality of service in washington, it's the same to me. in europe, when the batteries are especially when charged electricity is useful, simple pleasures. once in a film and absolute highlights with our system that also charged in concert cinema . we have a project that we add to the system, but depend on the community request we added and we can show him move in the night . we can use the facility to also inspect him themselves for the solar lamps and most important moment. fancy villages have been equipped own solar systems, which now supply a total of 2000 households. a shining example in more ways than one. and then breaks our show to a close. i hope you enjoyed it and, but we'll see you again next week till then. take care. i am chris alone from

oregon state, signing off time for me to say good bye as well, but be sure to check us out on all our social media platforms. so we can stay in touch. that's all for now. i am sandra tree. nobody bought by. ah, ah, ah, with ah, ah, with

who oh, no of human kind here drive in south africa, more of our ancestors blossoms can be found here. anywhere else on earth. researcher joseph drug, i asked the question when the importantly,

why did human beings come into exist a in 75 minutes on d w. i discovered stories that could change your mind just to click away. find out best documentary on you to see the world already subscribed. now t d w documentary, a lot of contrast of ambitious inequality

75 years ago. mahatma gandhi can fully lead the country to independence provide you with what is the remainder his vision. think what's the status of human rights and social justice in what's called the world's largest democracy with with the moment unleash on mileage boss. and re imagine these teachings or elements to ah, gandhi's legacy starts january 28th on b, w ah,

ah ah, ah, this is the w slide from berlin. hopes of finding more survivors are fading off the russian missiles, destroy an apartment building in the pro ukraine. 35 people are confirmed dead, but thousands of residents are still on account of all.
