oh yes, yes pursuit. this is to close occurrence with citizens for trying to find out because cynically, no, i'd like to stumble any more just conflict in ukraine. a european war and 10 voices rushes, warrior crane. one year since the invasion began. we take a look back into the future in the new 1000000, slow green in february on t w. d. ah, ah. we can't live without water on a planet. it plays a crucial role in our daily lives. we drink, it, grew crops, generate energy,

and produced its importance extends beyond human consumption, with every peak from wild animals who the smallest flowers in our gardens, needing water to survive. unfortunately, our ground water deserves our depleting, and the world is getting dryer by the d. so what can we do to address this growing problem? that's what we talk about today. hello and welcome to eco india. i'm some of that a now despite being a planet made up of 97 percent water, only 3 percent of this is for to conserving this water and finding ways of using and recycling it is the need of the a promising initiative and bang and who is already working on this, let's take a look. the bengal yuru is a large city in southern india where not all residents receive running water. it's

mostly only the more affluent section that does. but experts lead to the problem isn't a lack of water supply to the city. ready the calculation of the quadrant of a metropolitan city is using certain standards, which i think are outdated. so for example, we now calculate at $200.00 leaders, but tablet upper date. but most european city is not in 400 liters, but catholic or if you take duct figure, bang has sufficient water. it gets 1050000000 liters from the cavity for 40000000 population. and it gets a supplement of between 502600 1000000 dieters per day from ground water. so there's actually no scarcity of water sources. it's a question off getting some water for all and making sure that water distribution systems are moody. quit a balloon, jack. ready the some citizens are working to save water to father. this cause shannon probably lives in an apartment complex when not he and his residence

association are looking for a way forward. we should not reach to that stage where the water is not better dollar for consumption. so we have to start considering the water now, which then our basic concentration was on water consideration. we found that the water, which is used in apartment industrial apartment, is being wasted from his group of residents, fitted taps with air eaters that reduced a flow of water by 80 percent. then they set up a rain water harvesting system to meet their needs for one month. they also recycle their sewage and used it in toilets and for gardening and all the savings added up it comes to are a one broadly rob water. so this much water week would sale in our apartment. that

means one, broadly drove water. we stop extracting from the boardman wise. 10000000 liters of what are saved in a year is significant. the group wanted to do more, so they set up age recharge wells under the apartment to help replenish the water table. they did all this with the help of citizens action forum world of water. it's founder has walked in this area since the late 19 eighties trying to bring more people into the fold. ready one of the idea to bring in lay people, housewives, physicians, charter counters in the body who is concerned about his r huseby. and who wants to see if he or she can make some change happen. while we all understand that there is a crisis on water ah, through bi weekly meetings,

the forum has reached 50000 people. it estimates that these conversations have saved 50000000000 liters of water by jo in bangalore. they've used methods similar to those employed by solace apartments like sewage treatment plants, rainwater harvesting smart meter installations and air it or fitting it's about sensitizing. it's about constantly bringing more people into the fall and having existing people tell more stories of the work that they're doing in a way that such success stories can me hopefully emulated by others another bang glory and taking it beyond residential complex's is god with douglas hottie when she was a teenager, she read that 14000000 liters of water every year are wasted in glasses that

customers don't finish in restaurants. the revelation resulted, the youth lead campaign called glass passport, and the goal was to try to understand what is that solution that would work well for all of us. that's when we came up with the idea of last half was the campaign now has the support of the national restaurant association of india, which help spread its message witness aboard the campaign has managed to change the policies of around a 1000 restaurants. but they also work with volunteers, like the female members of the rotary club, who pay regular visits to restaurants, schools and housing societies, to raise awareness among more citizens in this it up. what is not expected of sports? it's a participate in sports citizen should become aware of alias raised a big impact water positively can me engagement,

community action and cleaning up our lives of us bonds and streams. all these are possibilities for citizens can be harvest rainwater. can we get our children to be white about water you? campaign of hope more citizen cooperation can generate a higher amount of water that will reach all residents. austin, glue access to clean drinking water is becoming scarce. the region so on the world due to heat and drought in many of these areas with limited sources of water nearby, like rivers leaks or wealth communities struggle to find a solution. but fog harvesting in areas where the fog is common could provide much needed relief to them. let's find out how them the humidity they bring is a treasure clouds of fog shroud, the mountains of spain's could on canada. it had time of increasing drought and

water scarcity. every drop of water in them is a blessing. here as many as possible of these drops are being captured in nets. monitoring the process is the joke of sour oliva accommodate us. even when there is no fork, the environmental technician has work to do with the lawyer logo. i'm checking if the filters here are in tags. so let me know. and if there is rubbish, all shooter, what do you mean by rubbish and you can get it ernie from sand or leaves was sometimes there are tiny dead animals to 15 collect as when stole tier 2 years ago . it's a fairly simple system which requires a fog location and a bit of wind. when folk moisture raindrops accumulate on the mesh, the water drips down into tank and then flows directly into storage units at

different locations downhill by a multitude of houses. at 1 o'clock on the 3rd with the collectors that we have here, we could catch $300000.00 leaders of water per year. and according to the manufacturer, to date, we have captured 45000 winters. what they seen. we are of course, dependent on the weather which a little lee my young. there are years when i can catch much more nailed, and others when it will be led north through. our goal is to reach $250000.00 leaders per year life to achieve value young. we can't rely solely on this traditional model and, and, but we'll also use newer designs that may be able to harvest even more water. and a more of their bought them by your deficient oliver corporate us and the team of environmental experts. he works with neat, more water loading for 20000 new trees. only a few minutes drive from the fall collect as they are restoring an area that was ravaged by flames in 2019 them of them. it was the worst wildfire on the island of drunken nadia and recent history. the blaze devoured 10000 hacked as the scars that

left us still visible to day. oh, different restoration projects are in full swing across the area, including on this hill side, with 35 factors are being revived to tackle decertification. rising global temperatures make spain's cannery islands increasingly vulnerable to drought and fires. still fragile new trees. seedlings are bedded in a bio degradable cocoon. it insures that the water that was harvested from the collector's won't evaporate too quickly and boosts the trees. survival right? natalia marital abbey light leads the team here to her. this project is more than just a job. open carry one after when you sepia. yeah. i live close by the real opening that i when i saw the fires cloud of smoke from the wildfire palate and kept my suitcases in the car waiting to be evacuated and set it up. what no mythical. in

the end it wasn't necessary for them. nothing. when i bought them, but at least now i have the opportunity to restore the affected area care. the island is part of me. i know that this place in particular, oh good. i meant the symbol ha, whatever the team have already planted. half of the trees for the life near black project, which has received millions of euros in financing from the local government and you the deposits of a fork water currently emptied manually. but research as i trialing a storage system that releases the water autonomously into areas where it is needed . they have observed that the system has already improved soil moisture in areas where they planted new trees. it's giving the team here hope that their job will bear fruit some days soon. for a while you thermal. hm. this is a small pocket of laurel trees and it's a living example of what we want to achieve in the patio area. and believe it's all

thanks to folk created by the coastal climate and clouds ascending to the cooler mountain region. a similar project has also been set up in portugal, and both locations experts are examining whether for catching could be an effective way to protect against drought and fires. in other eric climates across the mediterranean and beyond. similar systems in chile and morocco, supply water to small villages for pharma ferryman cardona, the fuck hitches could be a game changer. his land is in walking distance of a collect us. he lost up to 10 hector as of pair apple and not trees in the 2019 fi of ground. cannady fos. growing ferns have now taken over what was once an orchard or through or a soaker fire burned everything to the ground level. nothing was left on the

child's soil. this year though, he planted again, apple trees. and during the hot, dry months his neighbors from life needless supplied water. in the past, herman cardona was dependent on rain falls on you every year the summer's get longer and it rains less when it rains lessen winter to. and it's more difficult to maintain everything. yokohama, diffuse, because without water, nothing worked in here. that's why the fog water is genius. it's the solution or near 11 mucus. here we don't have any way of watering. illustrious jumper has no irrigation and there are no, well, you know, really there's no water. so i know there's only rain that are shown for coaches look, are totally new in preparation for the hot summers he wants to install his own for collectors to make the most of a resource that is right within reach. in the face of the deepening climate crisis,

it is not clear how reliable for events will be, but once the new trees are bigger, they will at least stabilize the local climate and protect somewhat against heat and decertification. a lot of go blah. so see, lock up though in the long run we will remove the collectors because the re forested area will at some point take on the work of harvesting humidity. oh, i haven't seen little public. that's how forest work for chicago. blue book, they capture the humidity and historic in the soil lather. we'll see that in as well enough for south olive accommodate us in the team. every tree met us, grand canada is counting on its fork. collectors to help heal the wounds of the devastating wildfire. and safeguard the island against a future disaster. drinking water is very unevenly distributed around the wood, with horton added regions in latin america,

asia and africa, facing severe shortages when dams are built. miskin was on the water crisis when near by regions and communities like we've seen in and it on china and ethiopia, exporting drinking water can also have serious impacts. let's take a look at how mrs. playing out in little water rich la soto is keeping thirsty south africa alive, but the tiny, landlocked country as paying a high price for it. we didn't anticipate that damn caea in the so to wendy did misery. that is bringing perhaps worn will to the law. i see nothing of the better life that they promised us would grab it if it were up to me, i would decide against that building. madame that is needful water. i saw a lovely car grades high and the soles of such water remains the little islands

were to project. we have been able to divert water. it was how africa, but we are limited by the quality of our environment. phase 2 of the le soto highlands water project started 3 years ago. one of 5 damages is being built here to supply water to neighboring south africa. the entire village has been moved to another location warmer the construction work hit us hard. they had promised us jobs and i wasn't our children are supposed to be earning something from this, but instead they're out of work for about a while. other people in south africans get the jobs we go hungry. one and they also took our fields till another by glasses, the cornfields and grazing land. now, how's construction workers?

far from leading to greater prosperity, the dam has brought misery for residence. driving 8000 people from their homes. the water will flow to south africa's financial hub, johannesburg, 400 kilometers away. for the 16000000 people in the city and surrounding province, la, so toes dams a vital and already provide 60 percent of their water. since the project has financed with south african taxpayers money, union kline hans has been monitoring it for a long time. he works for the organisation outer which seeks to expose corruption and mismanagement urbanized ations taking place and future development. then expansion of business needs more water. the problem is we are only very limited to the water that we have in south africa. we don't have innovative technologies and circulated infrastructure yet to recycle water. and currently we highly rely on the

las darlene's face to scheme to provide future demands. it's one of the largest infrastructure projects in africa and is supposed to benefit both sides. south africa, paisley soto, nearly $70000000.00 euros a year for the water. and the soto uses the dams to generate electricity for its population of the local project manager from the la soto highlands, authority, tulsa, let him 5 years time. the dumb wool bull, stunned bright hair, 5000 hectares of land. will them be flooded? as we are all away, this kind of projects would have social impact and environmental impacts. and i, we as the project template, number of fi programs, which had been there, discussed mac lead vocal amenities are as ways and means of ha ha, mitigating against the laws of land that the laws over there,

grazing earlier and perpetual mer to sea sick. we heard exactly the same promises 24 years ago when the cat saddam was built. all other dams feet that water into this reservoir, from where its pipe to south africa. sick we worked for the se and only legal center. the project was conceived georgia by 2 undemocratic governments of south africa, apathy division, and the military. it is jim in mistletoe. those governments did not have mandate from the people they did that. they said need for the review of basically to the project is also threatened by massive soil erosion. the construction of the dams,

along with overgrazing and climate change. mean the more and more soil is being eroded by the rain and ends up in reference, a sediment. in many places, only by a rock remains totally to say, lay as a consultant for a national project. the aims to protect the photos, rivers, work as hair rebuilding low walls into the hillside to reduce the speed and force of rain water run off and prevent erosion. they also remove invasive shrubs, but what otherwise whitehouse endemic ponds, his roots helped to keep the soil in place with the current erosion, the life of stems would be fairly compromised the lifetime, because in no time there will be more full of sediment done water. so this would be last investment. in my opinion, i read the ring of saving this for letting at the phone.

now in japanese research recently published the result of the large study on how much water human need every day. according to this research and bio individual amity, please, a big choice, which means water intake needs to read from person to puzzle based on the habits of post has been monetized by the beverage induction, which is dominated by large corporations for decades. small local producers get abroad in, even though there are more sustainable when it comes to water use. let's take a look at an example of this in tommy now. pull up the bottles, put them in place, cabinet and chin. in a nutshell, that's ha goalie. so does make a 65 year old superman, he has been making the sovereign in the city of harold and tom allotted for more

than 50 years using salt water through juice and flavoring. and i to navigation was the least of my interests since i was 10 years old. i was so i got into the business of making cub juanita drinks early. it took 17 long years to learn. the nuances of the business of this experience gave me the confidence to start up my own car when he did drink business. well, i began at the beverage has been popular in india since the 19th century and my monthly friendly from the get go. the so dies all natural and the bottles of washed and re used, super money, some phase. it's a lot of, but the effort base off in taste. boom number put it, but the non product have a today shall fly because their chemical free are signature pin. your soda are most unique flavor tastes like pure rose and it's very popular. any wrote, we offer a total for flavors. ginger orange cola in our signature penny or soda fordham.

super money used to sell to local businesses, but he stopped with advancing age. now he has his own shop. every day he sells up to 200 gully sodas and as many as 600 on weekends in the distinctive dented bottles . there are other goodies, automakers in the road who have their own online presence. use machine production and offer a brought to paulette flemish with super monies in the front of the competition. these committed to doing things by hand. what is a small beverage factory use of the money also supports other local businesses fins . all of his ingredients are locally sauced. he doesn't use preservatives, unlike most of the international software, produces that gali sort of competing against money, small sort of manufacturers fear big names will squeeze them out of the month and a stress, the regional water supply dose

concerns of fuel political activism, including protests in 2017. the original trigger was a ban on traditional bull damon, a decision that outraged many people here. but another issue emerged. goals for more protection of local market from international beverage produces a little bit can on the order. not every one demonstrated against foreign carbonated drinks, as while during the jalap cartoon protests. and i'll get a gun with the allowed amount of traitors. we supported that because we never sell the foreign beverages. but we still see how a lot of people prefer it. go on them in the know really low if our shop didn't offer foreign beverages people which is go to other shops and be crease to get them in out there today to do. i didn't learn. typically it doesn't evacuated from madison in a sort of pessimism. the recipe that for von and his father believe will help them in the future. goalie sorta has always been about recycling and selling locally

desired traits. today, after all, avoiding waste and reliance on distance supply chains is becoming more important in the ear of climate change. and then i'll only local out, i'm a bit of fella engelman bundling model. i come again. yeah, i want to make sure that out if our so the products are available in all the local shots and villages either on england either on the body, anita, colonel, michael allowed to go get it, you know, putting in on, on the some other one. he ended up, but i am confident that my son bill one did equal with the family business and run it successfully. his goalie sort has proved that sustainability doesn't necessarily to quite a revolution. sometimes he only need to uphold every day tradition. it's up to the younger generation to recognize those traditions. a mundane that we exist, because water does, i hope this has been your take away from today's episode. consulting water is

imperative for the survival of foss, species and other living organisms on it. i'll leave you with that quote and see you again next week. good bye. and thanks for watching with we're happy with

you. me can i hold your hand? mm. looking we have a lot in common. can this become love of? i don't got vulcan eye on me take that made,
