1:35 pm
over to you. hello and welcome back to the 77 percent in his 1st inaugural international address, kenneth president william router vowed that climate change would be central to this government. while we're here into kana, in the north of kenya, to find out what challenges lay ahead of him for this promise. 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 see me or in 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
1:36 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 our mamma here who lives in this area. she's a native to kind of woman and i just want to find out from you mama, what have you seen changing over the years? i'm on burial lauren kinney, we've been having a serious drought that has killed our livestock help of our people are now hungry, especially our women and children. donnelly were only living by grace. of course, he, me, they're cutting like a map cut in guy's go, mom. very keener laquinican. 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 supplement. i want to come to you, how bad is the situation statistically?
1:37 pm
since 1969, the temperature intercom account of increased by 2 degrees says don't worry up to now. we've got experience in the rain. so these erotic rain are in for it putting 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 hush, 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. no, 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 being 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 one of these areas into another one in such of literally greener pastures. at the
1:38 pm
moment we are talking about are possible is moving from china across the border to rent a place called cubic in such for pasta. so when the, when the, when, when the other community, it's gonna community. now that 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 mama 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, galvan, 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 truck while river. yeah. only there the while, the knuckle by the gunny. ah, i old like the wagon. oh yeah. i thought the dog of the body. well,
1:39 pm
so reason 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 say it's a professionally bit that only serves the needs of a few clink of people, or, or ames to gain and profit from this claim of 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 would of nora? the mob? no, no. oh there she actually looks disgusted. i guess because of the state of leadership . so came in to have to come back to you there. so many policies, these even a beautiful climate change, acton this county,
1:40 pm
and yet people are still feeling disconnected from the leadership. how was 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 matters 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 come to government is doing what up for the for example, we've drilled over 1900 bonds. just occurred resilience to ensure people are getting water. we are the program saw and improve improvement of briefs. so about re come of climate resilient breeds intercom accounting 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 as to how can i go into these a lot that we can land. but also we have over 1000 boards as director had mentioned
1:41 pm
dealing a boy who is a huge, huge investment because you have to drill, you have to equip entities. 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 discussions or from new york or divorce of brussels. these are, is a very big debate to the pastoral is 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 out 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 gales here who joined us today, i think the panel for braving the heat. and i especially thank you for watching.
1:42 pm
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, its no secret that africa is a continent with, pardon me, not the 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, from job to disrupt his rainfall,
1:43 pm
passions 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 productivity growth in west africa has fallen by about 34 percent. more than any other region in the world. over the past 50 years, drug related hazards have claimed the lives by half a 1000000 people across the continent. entry 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. ominous. but have we done enough?
1:44 pm
a cop 27 was recently held in 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 hit 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 agreements on cutting fossil fuel or setting new targets to reduce greenhouse gas emission. it's bad enough, are you happy with it? what do i because you feel about the whole climate issue. and what would you like to see? right, you know, anyone way to any fame in wait for it, we need to figure out what to do as an issue which has been substantially talked about across the globe that young people are taking center stage to demand change in policies and business practices. but many feel that the action still phone short
1:45 pm
of what's required. one way to help the planet is to use its resources backed up. and that takes us to tennis most northern and possibly most off we'd id campus on the shores of lake to cannot call founded by breeze unwary, who you also had from in the st debate, the campus act as a training center, as well as a startup 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 of ponders and find out how the compass is paving the way for a cognitive livelihood. in the north of kenya, a stone's throw away from the world's largest lake lake to cannot live the learning lions club in the region known for its harsh environment. and we most communities
1:46 pm
are depend on their livestock, the hub offers new opportunities. it's an ice city hap, we are based 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 a high end digital skills designed by books, novice docutech st. francis carry, the ip campus stands out in the landscape that otherwise has little infrastructure built using locally for materials. it's adapted to it surrounding the campus itself as both training, sometimes a startup 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. this is in music production, photography, filming business 4 years later,
1:47 pm
maureen with many hats, she teaches managers the school and farming projects and runs her own business, selling traditional took on a craft. my interest was creating and marketing to kind of products. because i feel like going, i was not really well presented of lived in religious aunties and me with my family. and i see the kind of walk into the kind of decrease utilizing the competence facilities and international connections also formed the backbone of the digital lions. a company founded by former students, offering branding, web development, and design. the team 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 their venture. so i think right now we need to change the mentality of going to school,
1:48 pm
trying to land 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 the love to it, you can walk anyway in this world. you can be a little moment with that thought up that even managed to make us more profit. self reliance is another key value of the hub. but unlike the start up for learning land still received funding from abroad to prison. and his team however launched their own game changing projects like producing chicken feet from the left over 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 for the future, holds opportunities for her here and to connor. that's exactly where she wants to
1:49 pm
stay. let's now head over to a landlord, eastern african country, to boost environmental awareness in winder. the bio diversity conservation organization has launch a project for young people, aka the future caretakers of the regions pristine forests. it is aimed at students in school 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 pulled peaceful coexistence between people and their fellow creatures who up to protect the environment and on the new. but as the, when you find in many more in the community, you can advocate 40, done to keep the animals don't this tub or cut the trees. always think that when you are protecting the environment, trees, animals,

1:51 pm
they're assuming responsibility for the environment, my preserving his plants and animals gone, bo amended, indeed, environmental clubs is to be right on the front line for environmental protection. it's unacceptable for people who am their barman 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. arca america coin using digital 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 up hunting when i get them on,
1:52 pm
