5:30 am
the future of sub and lice big cities on the news for 5 minutes. these places in europe are smashing the records, stepped into a little bit, venture pizza, the treasure map for modern globetrotters, discover some of us record breaking site on google back to and now also in book form the wild animals. and what uh, those are the topics into these echo offer to show our welcome for me. chris lives in the state nigeria, and i'm not alone on the show today. hello,
5:31 am
sandra. thank you, chris, and yes, it is a big hello for me to sandra 3. know, do right to use gunners, capital complex. so would like to ask you to come along and join us on a journey. of course, the confidence lease is what is coming up shortly for the next half hour at a community in gun. this taking care of a habits sense all separate crocodiles of prototype for what a treatment age is. self advocacy drinking more disgusting and a dis. sonya nation planting somebody is supplying house horseback with what the but fost will also is involved with home to some 8 to 3 thousands of on the telephones of to books on it. it has the 2nd largest wild elephant population in the world, bought the on the thread. and odds is so often because the causes
5:32 am
a complex climate change is forcing people to leave the villages instead of close to the la fonts watering cause. and that can lead to conflict between people and the animals and one project instant bobby is finding solutions. the one getting national park in zimbabwe is a power dice for mammals inputs. zimbabwe is largest, the national park is also home to some 45000 elephants. only neighboring bucks, one that has more of the endangered african savannah elephants. philip cooper. oh, god grew up here. today he works for the i f, a w, the international fund for animal welfare, the animal rights activist, advises the park on how to protect its elephants. without the elephant of the snow, a stuff on a cost issue because the funds will equal system engine yes. or equal system gotten
5:33 am
this uh, the bread quotes uh, branches, uh, to create a dress lands independent dress planes. and by that nature, le funds travel long distances. and this is the transverse uh, this equity as teams. uh, the pick ups is. uh, that's the dispatch or the elephants a 100 to down by poachers for the tasks, the pock ranges do their best to protect them, but they have a huge area to patrol. the fox, 14600 square kilometers, a guided by betty $200.00 ranges. that's why the i s a w is helping out. they provide an to poaching training refresher courses and support the work of k 9 units . the organization has provided pock management with the equivalent of 2500000 euros since 2019 a lot of money. that the park is using also to construct
5:34 am
a new buildings and buy equipment such as walkie talkies. but the rain just know that no project can work without the support of the local population. because there is no little community relations between the individual amenities. you'll notice that the issues of 14 will be difficult to, to address. so i didn't put into took it out this much, i even is convinced. but more importantly is to come up with the project. so that the community themselves, or utilize benefits or full stimulus, i would say with the, with one life. but one source of conflict is water. that's because both the animals in the park and the people living in the area depend on the same or of us for drinking water. the elephants are the most dangerous competitors at the but don't the river park ranges have implemented a new plan. the people in the village of my tennessee now have their own full holes for water. that's a huge relief for somebody impala and other villages i that enjoys
5:35 am
that. i didn't just like say it was risk gate. i'm gamma, we avoided fetching most here at the river in the morning and evening. we also tried chasing away the elephants by making noises with telling them. sometimes we would even burn plastics and oil is the none of that helped zim book and the i s a w have so far drilled wells and full villages on the edge of the one getting national park. thanks to solar powered pumps. tanks with a capacity of 10000 liters can be filled around 1200 of the 20000 people living in the one get area, get their drinking water at these bull holes. when they have time, bach ranges reach out to the community to discuss the apply to the animals, but they don't have enough personnel to do it on a regular basis. and they have to little dot about the animals migration.
5:36 am
i just want to send them on the wheels coordinates as what to expect, according to us and the cartridges from box visually to help us up with this quote, it goes out, do identify your quote and 1142 or 11 is what it was. if this quoted, those i open this, what other mazda and full pass through and call, and the comfortable and the equity does that was the independent movement fit in that they have the animal welfare activists face. another big challenge, climate change, less raid and more frequent droughts cause distress for the animals. the i s a w is planning to build water catchment areas to alleviate the problem. we hauled by some of the, you know, 50 feet of engines that we have palo to here, including uh, pens, cooking where we m 12 is to as much natural, remote as possible into, into this. what happens that way, we might have a chance to adapt and mitigates the impact cindy fix or try me change the elephant
5:37 am
population here is driving. it's 3 times larger than an elephant population usually is in an area of this size. what we can do is to make sure that between the do afraid call high because for the funds um you know, projected daddy, as you know, the community areas, we create enough safe space for the animals to be able to disperse much right. the protection program has been a success so far. the officials in zimbabwe is biggest national park say that hasn't been a single case of poaching in 3 years. hello, fonts, a search majestic pieces. and it's possible to emphasize enough how essential they also are ecosystem list on that topic for biodiversity and wildlife. but let's move from punch it down to the time. does right,
5:38 am
sandra makes report is about crooked dials. now most people are afraid of these people land per datas. after roles they commonly dooms all day in the water and then suddenly attack dupree ok like means beat. what? lot in prague, a town in northern dana this is part of the town in northern gone. if you want to wake of the souls of the dead, you need to bring a live chicken. according to the legend, the souls of the ancestors live on inside the crocodiles lurking in the village pon about the local. i'm not. there actually, surprisingly friendly bunch are to go to frontier this in drugs if you talk to it. ready it will hear you. they hear language telephone. if it is moving, and you ask it to lay down, is it when it goes anywhere to and you call it back?
5:39 am
it's individual bad. this is, it won't move again to alondo, doing more than a 100 crocodiles live in the pond. some of them are at least 80 years old, but despite their venerable status, they're not doing well. the pond is full of plastic waste and it's also drying up. visa, how cool my hama has been bringing tourists here for a long time. they come to see the tame crocodiles, the visitors bring in a lot of revenue for the town. but my hama says things are changing. was this the way a lot of place around here, because there were no houses i don't to, that's that there was enough place. and then the place was so a bushy, and then you can see them foreman green by non because of the climate change. and then at the same time, if the queen question did last. so it's like the ballistic change,
5:40 am
like this silly mana, a lead to is also worried about environmental degradation. whenever he has time, he collects garbage around the pond. he doesn't want his ancestors to have to swim . and plastic waste and the clean pond is healthier for the crocodiles. if you're, if you're done during move the plastic wages, the crocodile will think it is food and it will swallow it over the plastic waves isn't the only problem. more and more houses in factories are being built directly around the pond. these once per steam, babbling brooks have turned into a rivers of waste. and the water doesn't always reach the pond because it gets used for other purposes like irrigating crops. even these last greenaway seas are now under threat. the population is growing in need space. a good business model for
5:41 am
some of our chief new like the do you have, you have to separate them through. so this one and these 2 of them. so i still have the fulness, maybe one d, that we may lose here because it's very important to us to move out for you to lose . you see what i see then there's climate change. it's getting hotter and hotter and there's little rain. another reason that there's less than less water in the pond, residents here want to prevent the worst, although the resources are limited in those this the fact that what that for domestic samples above the community, by now what's on on that you cannot come in and fetch water sending to the community the souls of the dead would be grateful to their descendants if the pond is preserved and the survival of the pocket crocodiles is an important symbol of
5:42 am
biodiversity preservation and gonna, which is already lost more than 40 percent of its wetlands. even if the truck dials are teen, i don't know if i really like to go there tal risk. there are certainly some less risky. a code tourism attractions not fall from venice. italy, for example. there was a very special amusement park created by bruno firing. he's bought offers something charlie and 8. it's green in more ways than one of the merlot can via the how back cause the will of day the the just a few of the $37.00 attractions of the amusement tuck ip italian for under the
5:43 am
pulses and it was all built by this man. so very, very, very busy to stretch your legs out in front of you straightened them out. yes, that's it. faith. and otherwise you'll land with your nose on the rubber just because they're not barely. so now the other 1 may know brunette's room is 85 years old. he built his 1st swing here house a century ago. he opened massey from the door. yeah. it's always a joy to come here and see what i built up and 50 years. it's a great feeling to be able to say about your own life. and i made all my dreams come true, that i hope you have imagined match. the me i saw him all exactly the face of his dream began with the restaurant in 1969. bruno serena fell in love with this piece of fine as his wife's of wine and sausages, under the populace. he started building swings. he told himself everything.
5:44 am
everything remained valuable. he made a go, i only ever went to elementary school, but i've always understood numbers. it comes naturally to me working on weights and counter wait for my attractions happening. it wasn't, might have worked with the horse. i make mistakes at times and have to adjust that right. that there too heavy you before the slope isn't right. probably 90. okay, so what we're behind a normal is that, is there any special about preventive means punk is that none of the attractions required electricity, they use the laws of physics and the muscle power of visitors. so the newest attraction is the carousel. he has the idea for it of to watching a tv repose about a training facility for nasa astronaut. this carousel is powered by these bicycles operated by visitors. when you peddle the carousel spins, the faster it spins, the more the centrifugal force increases, causing the seed frames to move backwards from the center.
5:45 am
the well other amusement pucks face case due to rising electricity costs putting out for when is forging ahead. i'm planning for the future for summer is the energy energy prices are through the roof profit. so i'm thinking of installing dynamos on every right to harness the energy from all the equipment moving around. that's my plan. if i applied on the large scale that i do would follow the strategies of some will lead . is apple, do you wouldn't be very happy on a part like mine. i mean, because of everything looked like this. if you could no longer sell gas to italy, no one else. yeah. there's been no accidents in the decades long history of his punk who knows who in says nothing escapes him. so i don't want to sit down young man to come on there's nothing you need to sit down because it's
5:46 am
dangerous. yeah. he knew you maybe they don't read the science really. that's how it would tell you. ins are several years in germany, science or last, but here in italy, they're optional. maybe i'll read them. maybe not. that's how it works in italy. why is that? yeah, they go around $50000.00 visitors, come to the park every year. it's open only on weekends and entry. he is free for and if we're in believe it shouldn't matter how much money you have, everyone should have the right to have fun. most visitors buy something to eat and drink, and his restaurants making the business sustainable. even at 85, he's still pitching in every way he can. he says the freedom to do what he loves has kept him. yeah. but it may be very, it's a beautiful way to live. depending on my mood each day. i decide what to do. isn't
5:47 am
that great? my dear. that's the poetry of life. that was the one that he's devoted to his amusement puck the. now back to africa for this week, 2nd big topic. water is essential for life on us, but it is becoming increasingly squares due to climate change. both comes up in brick and water. i'm finding new and different ways to obtain a will be key when it comes to adapting to the changing situation. it did crease take self africa, for example. since 2015 repeated drones have caused a major water clients to stay and keep tone drumstick was to retain meshes hot to be implemented, to stop the city from running dry. think our eyes started looking around for
5:48 am
tentative solutions. and basic thing, did you hear thoughts? story are the natural resources such as gold, diamonds, an iron ore have made south africa rich. but after the mines have been exploited and abandoned, they slowly fill up with ground water. it's a huge problem. toxins released the pollute, the soil and water in the area. but in fact, all this acid mind drainage as it's called could still be used a synchronous dog, south africa, chemical engineering boy tumult and cut low. because working with the university of johannesburg on building an advice that will turn to minds poisonous waste water into clean drinking water, the prototype and cougar's dog can produce $20000.00 leaders of drinking water per day. the waste water undergoes a multi stage filtering process in which metals are used to remove poisonous
5:49 am
compounds in the water, but the process is still in its infancy. so it will be serving availability of water since you know that we have experienced in south africa will touch this productions. so this can save about a 1000000 people, especially difficult to touch on his big, which is very close to 20 percent population of thoughtful of john inspect. so that's, that's what the advocating for south africa is home to some 550 active minds and an estimated 6000 abandoned ones for tumult and cod lowe's. invention could help to alleviate the points and legacy of south africa's minds until about you. if you also doing your bit, tell us about it. this is how websites will send us the tweets hash tags doing your best. we share your stories.
5:50 am
that's a really interesting approach to accessing drinking water. once the blemish crisis means that it can only be one part of a patient strategy. if we could use water from an ocean for drinking. they think cooking and a good culture with good auction, eat dramatically old to the lives of millions of people. this report from somalia hospital securing a day supply of drinking water is high book increase your a c t t own somalia as cost the wells are up to 200 meters deep and holding up the water, connie's does is tween yes. seems rain for discuss fresh water east to sol towards the from the nearby ocean in food fits and contaminants the woods do because of the opposite. and his neighbors come here most every day. they have no other choice
5:51 am
but it's still not listed. it's exhausting to draw water from the deep well and it's salty tool, but they cannot afford to buy it clean. what's the issue? let me see if with i think i can do it back in reason to. yes. so maria has experience, have a role failed during the seasons. the loankey smile is playing out for residents. each disaster busy to grazing, loved the lift, and on the most dying of cost, the ground is so patched. it's hardly what from over 2000000. so many guns i've already feeling the effects of climate change. a bundle, sand from somebody else, maybe strip energy and water resources is worried about the future. that other can supply. you know what the drought has advocacy affected people and the legs stuck
5:52 am
into smile on this one rounding in is there is a severe what a shortage into smart when much, even without any rain, help has arrived in the form of a want to be selling nation planned, it was built by so many business people who wanted to improve the quality in the woods. so they found that they own from highlight level. it's the one key. we establish the, i'll see what a supply company in case scenario in 2014 of till we sold. there was no clean and drinkable water into some iowa. so the big or cancel. so when we double the plows, we not said that the water was sort of high and so we bought machines to be selling it the one time it done, it was a couple of i can't, i'm a cannibal. it'd be, i combine this 40, not really. this would be the government's responsibility, but so maria has been politically timeline for the kids the fall.
5:53 am
yeah, sure. the government does not collect enough money to taxation towards it. so these know public investments and building i'd be selling nation plans requires mediums of donuts and vs. the 1st i just wanted me to hear some were on, on a little dog at the last climate change conference. so money us to industrialize nations for funds to cover such costs as it produces just a fraction of the waltz couple of emissions baby. so the nation plants used to be powered by a diesel engine every time. it is expensive to operate and environmental the home for much. no, the company is using green energy, big solar collectors and the other plants replace much of the need for fossil fuels system and also look, i'm look, i'm kind of nice and found the using 15 barrels of these as a day, which cost a lot of air pollution from a part of the highly of till we is told the solar system. so we've got these are
5:54 am
consumption, they 80 percent of all of them did the oil. we use visa motors at night by 20. how the know for to night we run the motels, i think of the city of what to production has increased and we have low and it's caused by 16 customers so many so i look so sad to keep behind that well, walk on a baby. so the nation plant has been a blessing for people here supplying fresh water to around 5000 households. and because solar energy has reduced the cost of clean thinking, what's up even poor russell mondays cannot afford it. people look here too bike a sales total fraction of the former price. now for the him of how much comes he a regular to. she sees by good motel for her so and he'll send me the, the late i used to work to, to meet those, to get to, to get on with this. and then it was not good to drink because the water was
5:55 am
so sort of team that all went exit all for you know, off you brings clean and bring people will tell me right here, close to me. hun it's and i said a total of a sentence just cause then i got dynamo as applied in july and that's mid her life . much easier because despite the assistant about, she still has access to plenty of thinking. what's up though if somebody is delta gets was even slow to will vote will be in short supply. so the head of the water company is to build a plant that will be sending it so to tax straight from the ocean instead of the slow to vote from the web. it's amazing what's possible. and that brings us to the end of today's echo africa show. i hope you enjoy that and found it inspiring. that's all for me. chris alliance from laguna state nigeria. see you next time. so to get in touch with us on social media channels,
5:56 am
tell us about any projects you know that i hoping projects on climate would love to hear from you. so from now, it is a good buy for me, sandra 3, nobody writes yet in comp. uganda the . 2 the
