7:35 pm
over to you. hello and welcome back to the 77 percent in his 1st inaugural international address . kenneth president william brutal vowed that climate change would be central to this government. while we're here in through cana, in the north of kenya, to find out what challenges lay ahead of him for this from is, and i have some lovely people here to try and explain what exactly is happening in this region. i'd like to start with althea, she's an agronomic engineer, but just to give us an overview of the climate profile of this area, what is of the nature of the earth, the weather patterns, and how has that changed over time? so this is a cone to which is an i didn't send me an area and the communities of livelihoods is highly affected by the climate change. because when we have the change in weather patterns, that means that we look, visitation cover for them livestock. we also have challenges with water because for
7:36 pm
crop production we relay a lot or now bore holes or that is for irrigation. and when we have a extreme with the conditions, that means that the water live was also good. don't. well, thank you so much for that summary and i want to come now to a mamma here who lives in this area. she's a native took on a woman and i just want to find out from you mama, what have you seen changing over the years? i'm on burial on kidney, we've been having a serious drought that has killed our livestock. our people are now hungry, especially our women and children. donna, we're only living by grace of course. he knew they're cutting like a map cut in can go mulberry. jenny lincoln. so drought is obviously a front and center issue here and you can see that he is already having real consequences. this, by the way, being the 5th consecutive failed rainy season. that this region of the great han of africa is experiencing. so claiming to want to come to you,
7:37 pm
how bad is the situation statistically? since 1969, the temperature intercom account of increased by 2 degrees. since don't worry up to now. we've got experience in the rain. so the 0 to crane are in for it, but i need to come a county as compared to 15 years ago. i'm just trying to figure out, you know, looking around it might be difficult for somebody to imagine how do you survive in this environment and why stay in this environment if it's so harsh, i think are, we are pastries came here and her. we sat here and i those are the way of living for our self. so are we can move from may be here to get i li, order k new because i did that aspect to find security also. okay. so you brought up something really important, which is one of the impacts of climate change been conflict, but i want to come to you dominic because is another phenomenon which is a climate migration. and i know parts of your family have been forced to move from
7:38 pm
one of these areas into another one in such of literally greener pastures. at the moment we are talking about our pasta least moving back from china across the border to going to a place called cupboard in such for pasta. so when the, when the you, when, when the other community, it's gonna community, now there is moving, that is moving to, to their place inside for poster. it creates a situation where, where by the they want to, we're the ones. what are the animals the want posture away? the sim community also wants to see him. so let me come back her to mamma here will like to day if you wanted to get water. where do you go and find it? how far is it? and what do you do on a daily basis to sustain yourself to feed yourself and your family, lemuel, new ashburn, cullman, we get water from far away. whether not, this village has no water. we fetched drinking water from the pool area, about 10 kilometers away. and once we fetched water, we go looking for wild fruits in the bush along the took while river. yeah. only there the while. the knuckle. my, the gunny. ha,
7:39 pm
i older like the wagon. oh yeah. i thought a dog of the body. well, so risen. we're hearing some very dark things on the other side that these food insecurity malnutrition, and may be under nutrition. where do even begin to resolve this? a good question. the debate on climate change, sometimes i said a professional debit that only serves the needs of a few clink of people or, or ames to gain and profit from this claimant for the bit. because if this debate was meaningful, then this debate would be translated into the local people's lives. so i want to ask the people who are sitting at the back then maybe you can help me. ah, can they remember the last time a local leader came a sat be them about climate change? if they can remember, just raise their hands. who put on an area, ma'am? no, no. oh there she actually looks disgusted. i guess because of the state of leadership . so coming to have to come back to you there, so many policies, these even
7:40 pm
a beautiful climate change act and his county. and yet people are still feeling disconnected from the leadership. how is that possible? initially didn't of remarks in class. we need to have structures which will include actually communicate with the public to the masses, or mottos through the clements, into the ceilings of up to sean and even early warning. can you give me examples of adaptation and mitigation? things that are being done, which are actually working, county government is doing water project. for example, we've drilled over 1900 boards. you're still crit, resilience to ensure people are getting water. we are in program so and improve improvement of breathes saba to come off climate resilient breeds intercom, county and so many other innovation, but we are doing. okay, so lucille, we've heard what government is doing when you look at countries like egypt and israel, you get the sense that we could be doing so much more asked. we're gonna go into these a lot that we can land, but also we have over one those and bo,
7:41 pm
who's as derrick to had mentioned dealing a book is a huge, huge investment because you have to drill, you have to equip entity. so said that so many of this boy who is currently do not have water. so that means our efforts are actually diminished because like, what more can we do right now other than have emergency response is i'd like to wrap this up. so if there's anybody who has some solutions for me, this is the moment, one of the things that people need to do is to, to move this discussion. so now from new york, a divorce of brussels. these are, is a very big debate to the pasta released communities we are, we almost hit by the drought. we appealing to the wild leaders or to bring this discussion home to where the problem is really, this was never going to be an easy conversation. it's not an easy one globally, it's not an easy one locally. but one thing has come up pretty clearly from my panel here that we need to do more talking and more talking to each other and not at each other. i think the local guys here who joined us today, i think the panel for breathing,
7:42 pm
the heat. and i especially thank you for watching. bringing young people on board is absolutely essential when it comes to policy making. they view the issues with a different perspective and can offer solutions. that's exactly why we go to many parts of africa and make sure your voice is a heart. if you want to watch that whole debate, do visit our youtube channel. moving on, it's no secret, but africa is a continent with a pardon me locally young population, which has taken securing the future of the planet. but many young people still remain unaware of the exact extent of the issue. climate change is the biggest threat our planet is freezing, and each one of us needs to do here or how beat to make sure that the mother of so wise for all of us,
7:43 pm
from job to disrupted rainfall patterns to dry up lakes and flooding. africa accounts for about 4 percent of all global greenhouse gas emission, but it's already disproportionately bearing the brunt of climate change. how exactly we know the science, but do you know how bad the situation really is? in africa 2021 was the 3rd warmest. dia, on record. as the mercury rises agriculture, but activity growth in west africa has fallen by about 34 percent. more than any other region in the world. over the past 50 years, jobs related has its, have claimed the lives by the half a 1000000 people across the continent. entry get to $70000000000.00 in regional economic losses. by 2030 water threats is estimated to effect about 250000000 people on the continent and displace up to 700000000 for young people across the continent. but have we've done enough cop 27 was recently held in
7:44 pm
egypt, but did it deliver cop 27 in egypt brought together more than 45000 people from around the world. the conference ultimately agreed on establishing a loss and damage funds that will compensate countries, he'd hardest by climate change. it also kept alive the goal of limiting global warming to $1.00 degrees celsius. but the latest field doesn't include any new agreement on cutting fossil fuels or setting new targets to reduce greenhouse gas emission. is that enough? are you happy with it? what do i think if you feel about the whole climate issue and what would you like to see? right. anyway, wait a minute, wait for it. we need to figure out what to do as an issue which has been substantially talked about across the globe. a young people are taking center stage to demand
7:45 pm
change in policies and business practices. but many feel that the action still phone short of what's required. one way to help the planet is to use its resources back up and that takes us to tennis, most northern and possibly most off weed id campus on the shores of lake to cannot call founded by breeze unwary, who you also had from in the street debate the campus acts as a training center, as well as the stats of incubation hub. it drains young people and supports them in building their businesses in the field of i t web design and branding. we meet 3 young start founders and find out how the compass is paving the way for a ton of to you lively. who know in the north of kenya, a stone's throw away from the world's largest. that was lake lake to connor lives. the learning lions tech hub in the region known for its harsh environment and where
7:46 pm
most communities are depend on their livestock. the hub offers new opportunities. it's an ice city hap, where best in they're not them part of kenner. and the idea is to fight poverty using digital opportunities. while we get young people from this region and really equipped them with high end digital skills designed by bulky, novice, docutech, francis carry the campus stands out in the landscape that otherwise has little infrastructure built using locally for materials. it's adopted to it surrounding the campus itself. as both training sometimes started incubator to date 27 classes have completed its curriculum. many of them are run by former students with the help of external trainers. so and we joined the, the 3 months basic training where we, we learnt about web development. this is in graphic design,
7:47 pm
basics in music production, photography, filming business, 4 years later, maureen with many hats, she teaches managers the school and farming projects and runs her own business. sell in traditional took on a craft. my interest was creating and marketing to kind of products because i feel like it's going to was not really were presented. i've lived in villages, aunties, and me with my family. and i see the kind of walk into the kind of kid utilizing the campus of facilities and international connections also formed the backbone of the digital lines. a company founded by former students, offering branding, web development, and design. the p now have clients all over the world. the entrepreneurs come from a nearby town and neither of them had any formal training before the box on the adventure. so i think right now we need to change the
7:48 pm
mentality of going to school, trying to learn and get their white collar jobs. i think if you get an opportunity like for us, if you get trained as long as you have your laptop, an intimate, you can walk anywhere in this world. you can be a digital norman. with that start up, they've even managed to make a small profit. self reliance is another key value of the hub, but unlike the start up for learning, lyons still receives funding from abroad. prison and his team have our ever launch their own game changing projects, like producing chicken feet from the left overs of local fisheries. so the idea is to really not to live in want to behind a village whereby the community is empowered to exploit the available parties. and some former students, like maureen, have bought into the vision serve the future, holds opportunities for her here and to connor. that's exactly where she wants to
7:49 pm
stay. let's now head over to a landlord, eastern african country, to boost environmental awareness, see and wonder. the biodiversity conservation organization has launch a project for young people, aka the future caretakers of the regional pristine forests. it is aimed at students in school will from early childhood to university. let's see what they've been up to. these youths belong to an environmental club. he teaches them about wild animals in the hopes will help protect species diversity and poo peaceful coexistence between people and their fellow creatures. you have to protect the environment around in the you. but the, when you find in many more in the community, you can advocate 40, don't kid the animals, don't this tub or cut the trees. always think that when you are protecting the
7:50 pm
environment, trees, animals, you are protecting your sales of wells. barbara, new england, national hon. that is a treasure true for biological diversity. the 1068 plant species have been counted here, and many of these grasses and trees and found in any of the forests or parks. you wonder? what is not just the greenery that's unique? the park is home to 322 species of birds and making it a great spot for bird watching. ah, bucket school, they learn more about what they've seen. this project is part of the rwandan government initiative in the you guys, you did me back over, did a little bit of glow. you're the future of this country. would you move that teaching you? it's getting you into having you taking that stick. tulsa, that is the promise over the future the peoples take their mission seriously.
7:51 pm
they're assuming responsibility for the environment, my preserving plants and animals, longbow co, our mandate, and these environmental clubs is to be right on the front line for environmental protection. it's unacceptable for people who am their varman, to be left to their own devices. they must be shown the right way of reporter to the authorities. if they refuse to change your attitude, aka about that, it requires that the teachers with more than $400.00 people per square kilometer rwanda's population density is very high. so folks keep encroaching on nature. so on weekends, school groups visit villages to spread their message. careful, wild animals don't set traps or chopped down cheese. often they propose a treat. villagers can receive farm animals in exchange for giving upon tim when i
7:52 pm
give them as i used to hunt antelope and eat them with my family. but through this awareness sunday, opportunities offered to awesome. i've stopped coaching since we've been given domestic animals. this no need to hunt in the park. i couldn't just several of rwanda aesthetic districts take part in the environmental club project, but that couldn't change you to make up some 2 thirds of the country's population. so that help is key to preserve the species diversity of now over to south africa, a one man sure in harry is putting the environment centers. in the theater piece, an act of mun, irene divina is forced to examine past traditions and future events to come to terms with his personal misfortunes and the impact of natural disasters. i could do no. i could
7:53 pm
do no. good. ha, actor the send zonati gives the suffering earth a voice with the actor uses comedy a drama to teach children about environmental protection. with the story, an act of man is about the life of a rainmaker who's lost his powers. i learned that say, and then the other time i met tant, she's and her, everybody to and keith, for the teachers. the show was a welcome addition to the lessons in which they emphasized the importance of environmental protection. it is important to incorporate that into our an aspect and doing a performing at performance because they understand it more so it's out of their
7:54 pm
formal education in class. cincinnati has been involved with climate protection for a while now for a 2nd job. as a farmer, he uses climate friendly farming methods on his own land. traditional noted systems late at all in the past years in that science ease playing a role now, but how best can we make these 2 especially contending issues of climate change to keep adults entertained at the topic as presented with a touch of humor. but it's quickly get serious, is that we have improved for either cindy or def to it in your system. and your prob, pulling and says, though, has definitely made an impression. we are happy that we have poked people that you able to know how and we are hoping that by poking them instead of them doing
