the rest of the year long before i was on, when humans came along, the great mass extinction began an amazing diversity excruciating because of the british miles and they are going to preserve this habitat. the aisles starts in a 90 on dw, the hello, and welcome to it's kind of exciting as a sort of equal off. we go focusing more on solar energy and it's on top potential

spots on the doing the slow. and i am to invite my cool present crease alums all the way from nature. yeah. hi, sandra. nice to be with you again. we have an exciting 26 minutes face tool from africa and 0. coming up on the show today. we'll look at houses. they want to introduce you plus, i'll bring in the whole support for seals in europe. and keeping the road suite. although there's so much sun in africa, most of the solar power plants. awesome. what else? like china, the us j pad or gemini, the potential and the offers and come to me is huge. but there are still a lot of major investments. will go to come a route to see an example of off solar energy can transform lives and create jobs.

these days clements in fremont sewing machine homes all day long because she no longer relies on electricity from a diesel generator. the seamstress lives in the village of buttons, which isn't connected to the national greed. these new sewing machine is sold a pilot babble question, i hear them and it's changed my life, a little commuter mine. i can what much faster. so i don't lose customer right. i see that when a customer comes in i can get the jump them very quickly. volusia unhappy, the sewing machine was the knitted, but the green youth association of gun the ruin which teamed up with the company impala for the project promoting green energy. there is a huge demand for energy income, the room. but the supply is unreliable. in rural areas, over 60 percent of the villages are also read but even in the city's power outages and nothing unusual cynthia, we know this,

a lot of communities are off the grid, so that's why we decided to concentrate on provo areas. is it the amount that we're aware that there were frequent power outages and cities to ok so, so we decided to in the pilot projects, one is we would get the selling machines to people based in the cities general areas around 40 of the sewing machine sets what several 100 euros of been domestic mainly to young women. the steps include about 3 of the sort of pano which power was the sewing machine and 3 lumps. is it, does it keep the ma, it's a very innovative set. yes. look, this is the 1st time that something like this is being used and come a written on the 1st time the m power stalking this equipment. of course the steps need to be serviced and that poses some challenges to yet it is not. this obvious thing is done by impala, and the whole project is financed by a finish

n g o. before the young women receive their sewing machines, they've given seems trust training, and learn how to use the machines clements in bid. my is one of the trainers. the scheme is a great opportunity for the young women is when the women we train, especially disadvantaged, the clothes without tech support. the training wouldn't help them much because that families wouldn't be able to afford a sewing machine. the trainings say the sort of pod sewing machines make life much easier on it before that what problems all the time. you've cut out your past them, but then the machine wouldn't. what they do with this one sending is much easier that you should be difficult to go through. the project was lost in february 2022 is to in the pilot phase is but it's expected to continue. so the, the, the environmental great solar energy is good for the environment bills,

but now we can see that it's also good for society. it's improves people start to flipping, even if that's not the 1st thing people think about. so there's on most of the cost on this 17 bill my would agree. she's proud to be a pony village and fraud for new sewing machine the they telling them it's really that bruce don't. so it looks really lovely. wow. shut that nice when i take it home, everyone at mice and then level was that and that means everyone comes over and asks how they can get one to move a safe little of law. and imagine if every household in come through not just one sort of public piece of equipment, the benefits would be considerable. they move that small initiatives created romo, those for others. the better. one example is

a young woman from nigeria. everyone calls the the solar eclipse. this makes a cool hero, not only gives workshop of solar fall off, she also run several small business which out our associates. it is contagious. i do. okay. i do full g isn't easily, don't have the 27 year old installs solar system like he's on the housing set them, you know, will speak to nigeria. she's an expert in solar energy. and the only woman on the team, out of faith in, you know what i say it's difficult going through the climate roof. put santano's on being like it's not the holidays, but the nice thing that i'm nice on. if you love what seems to be able to know the amounts of this literally patel into her boss and meant to is dumber than that

actually known as the solar queen. she found it has so low tech company back in 2007, when only a few with bits and on renewable energy back then she had to convince a customers that's a technology, as well as the expertise were reliable, way attempted to call me at least get the question, do you know what you're saying? can i speak to the my judge? i'm showing you. you can ask somebody to pick up was choose. oh, it is bad because it made me once you actually do more than the chalet, it was determined to fight these kind of pudgy, do send a truck to more women to the sector in 2017. she found that the ash, the academy facilitates knowledge, but it was the man who signed up for the courses we set down until the inquiry mobile made to apply for the training. and this was actually what, what,

what about the select queen selection and the taxes, which actually sometimes of an older percentage collection with a scholarship for women was the answer. she was able to recruit and use companies and the german development agency sponsors. so a queen scholarship windows between 19 and 29 years old and many have new previous experience and was able to do the going to school my classics and also be able to speak english wisely. then you can have to blend in without training. as a class, the rice q is an expertise for you to be able to supposed to be successful. over the course of 3 months, the participants learn to install and maintain photovoltaic systems. at the end, they receive a certificate that tickets to need to. we need to close the gap and even the display, we need to close the gap in the technical space. and we need to have this kid who

met also of approaches in this goals. for example, murphy, olivia, and mary, i any of the company zoom? logitech mostly used to work in sales for the company. and maybe it wasn't makeup artist quite to leap. or is it no, do me need this thing to do was so if you knew i did, i wouldn't know. and a was who included the detailed this call me to fill out a new installation that we can do what 2 days. yeah, installing it sooner. system for hotel, you know, your town, the hotels used to be connected to the public. tal great, there's 4, there's no, there's no pos apply. i know the ones who run this kind of business. we have 2 of another ways to power supply. today we, i still in a 5 k v, a solar panel system, so far around 250 women have completed the solar queen trina more than 9000 tough

taking part in training courses and seminars on. so that technology, we need even more says that we know that the potential for full energy in nigeria is huge. but the switch to photo voltaic systems is difficult, not only because of money, but also due to a lack of skilled worker. nigeria, we have about 60 percent, of course we don't, we don't assist in it's and that 50 percent of the problem, the country. so we didn't want to see the problems kind of solved by one presses. and that's why i definitely know that actually is hoping for more women like to look at the quote. for former students takes women from the sewer looking program along to work with today the a quickly kiosk in the, by the with the minnesota policy, stay for the quote you, it's a routine assignment for her students. it's a milestone guessing solar energy to light up. the darkness

very is firing. now let's move on to an idea that is a set of old and beneficial for farmers and gotten this around a well. it's an ation irrigation back thoughts from kamesia using play dogs to water plants. and it is important involved the behaviors change formless use up to 80 percent of all your tests used in the country. the new irrigation system is simply on it allows, once to twice or less or to it is 6 weeks doing good. but the olive trees are hardy plants that do wetland arid regions up to a point in the past. there used to be adequate rainfalls here in northern tunisia, but due to climate change, it's become a lot dryer. is now farmer mohammad then east maya transports water to the orchards

from a well that is far away. water that's becoming increasingly scarce. so he's feeling old as clay pots that he's buried in the ground. the under the least vessels have pours walls 10 are quite large. if the soil dries out the pots act as a reserve to keep the roots well supplied, the trees, just get the right amount of one. to be this methods better than direct watering because when you pull water on to the ground, the water around the tree above correct and better still push anxious method does the job using around 60 percent less water chemist in olive tree experts you mind quick blanche is carrying out tests on trees here and then it's miles orchard typically pretty much you need to when the weather is humid or when it rains off by, you know, go to sleep, sound to the vessels a little looking,

get let's just because when it's dry and the trees the router, do they have the roots can absorb it directly from the supply in the buried call as well. you bet. i feel the little out of the above till the last 10. there was another advantage. these trees produced around 20 percent more olives, despite the less water being used. the older method dispenses water much more efficiently. until about you, if you also doing your bit, tell us about 2 visits, all websites will send us a tweaks hash tags doing your best. we share your story, staying on the topic of what to rhonda is actually experiencing once too much. what you can do mostly bring full cost trees, to full district houses,

and also the fields and what is the most terrible more than a $100.00 died in recent years, rhonda has witnessed a series of climates related hazards such as floods, landslide and drugs, the top left devastating effects, particularly on those with low adoptive capacity and resilience to climate change. a project in northern run to aims to help people better adopt to a consequences of climate change. coaxing a decent tavis out of the soil as tough here in the mountain is to come. the district of notes and rwanda. eugene hygiene, amanda and his wife worked from dawn to dusk, fields or on steep slopes. so when it rains the what? the flushes the soil down into the valley. if things don't change, the form of fish is family cold faced of a fan. since this is the sole source of income lead you to,

to look at these bananas slaved criteria and we used to harvest banana bunches weighing over 50 kilos today sheets. so looking at this one, you can see we have a problem. okay. and then a situation midwest by climate change have you in for alternating with extreme dr. periods as rented in past the barren meaning they're no longer suitable for farming . i don't mind. it's difficult to find me in these mountainous areas with such excessive rainfall. it causes land, crops, and fields to be frequently washed away, not to mention the loss of life among local people. no, under these conditions, farmers cannot hope to produce harvests without a sustainable solution to all these problems. and how to, you know, you wouldn't that this is where the green to can be. program comes in actually called sex. but is it farmers to show them how to respond to the changing weather conditions and how to protect the soil. it's hope the project will benefit to

around half a 1000000 people across the 800 square kilometers that, that you come. the district covers. it has a budget of nearly 13000000 euros and it's funded by the u. n's green climate fund with no time to waste everyone pitches in to put the expert insights into practice to the hunger, not even end up with today. it increases our awareness of climate change and how to adapt funding, megabytes to it, to a mazda, which was how to restore our a band and line up just to find erosion during the rainy season, and how to so rain water for engaged, and during the dry season yeah, mazda to let, to get it. it's very useful. one key this, the build services on the stoves. this allows maureen fold the seats into the soil and slows down the water flow into the valley. plus the terraces that easy to plants crops on always until the trolls also being created to slow

down and the vet fast flowing run off water. that water can then be collected and stored in underground tanks to be used lights, athletic ation. then i have to put that off is, has the double end bucked, has inputted so this, this we don't, it doesn't do it down to 10 in the side contribute to the, to the productivity. and also the 5th edition. pick a whole different sizes. so going with do to establish those benches deficits out on the terraces. the farm is also plants, additional trees. their roots will over time protect the soil from your ocean, while their leaves will provide shape during the dry season. for the salt stain mice for longer. mays, beans and potatoes go far better, and the farmers can improve the yields. a look across the valley and beyond reveals

the dividends of the green to can be project b, i would round up depleted slopes, has gradually disappearing replaced by last greenery and farm land. from rhonda to the coast of vanya, the salt, a new open country east, experiencing a boom in torres, and on the same time santas researching the country, so population which leave and kids find this thing exactly. the sales line hiding buildings or com environment to keep best to the pumps. while they're happy to us is shrinking all the time. and now they find themselves on the and then just specialist would follow the research as to what the albanian coastline is. still having to launch the untouched nature. these capes might be one of the last refuge. as of the mediterranean monk sail reset to us at the cover at

the renaissance on national marine park company. sure. there were very few steals left and centuries of fruitful hunting have made them extremely shy. so to reset, joseph installed time or trumps in the caves, helps them track down some of the few remaining specimens. you'll can you hear some kind of product wrapper uh, and the cameras installed and the caves have helped us with our scientific observation and that's kind of both of them. and that was give me what i think we've counted as least 4 individuals so far and going to the and then you can give it to a spot in, in the bay of laura and a couple here in the western part of the cut a boat on preventive out, i got this, got a good one is me that some people to get our feet, but that's the lowest recordings of the monk sales was taken in january. they haven't been spoil if there's any wes, since once found all over the mediterranean, the species has now threatened with extinction. the reset to the gathering data to

prevent that because they can already protect what they know. one reason for that decline is the extreme, is the fishing and baseball cuz we'll go see a photo. shoot me a picture of the seals feed, mainly on fish squealing and show fisher thought it less fish means less food for them. but the best from apartment c from time and that's a great threat to the seals is mass tourism. hotels have been springing on pull over the a drastic coast line, including albania, is once peaceful marine areas are now overrun with water spots leaving less and less space for nature. the mediterranean sea itself is also changed, is getting wilma more polluted. the reset to is one to provide evidence of the changes with data to initiate the conduct monthly targeted monitoring the sea water quality of 12 different sites. because the coastal ecosystem has a direct impact on flora and fauna. and in that way on the threatened green species

and one thing i know that the fast results confirm this is climate change has already left its mark on the floor and phone of the marina area. the woman who has allowed invasive species from the tropics to infest the area brought in by the global shipping trade. native species have been disappearing as it becomes too boom for them. this combination has upset the seas natural balance. the she must whom i think can be kind of climate change directly or indirectly affects endangered species. it modifies the rhythm of their live cycle. it threatens fish docs and disrupts marine ecosystems. of the mediterranean monk, c. o is one of the species affected by these changes and by global warming selection, if you might think goes to the full kind of sale of the 10s of thousands of mediterranean monk seals that once populated the area only around $350.00 or less to twice again, the sea levels need large protected areas along the mediterranean coastline where

they can live. i'm just stopped. wow, great. now also a tiny fishy. that's so fine, repulsive and all those fine, cute and cuddly. know mazda your point of view. they deserve to be protected. i'm talking about totes, is south africa. octave is the searching for 2 nights. we went alone on via quest to find the center of phoebe and on rainy nights like this, most creatures seek shelter. but here, near cape town, it's when toads make their way from gardens the bodies of what to, to bring the genies has of this. that's why susie cool, cool, funded, the organization towed not she and other volunteers spend night after night tilting the doc rhodes to make sure the toads gets across safely.

this is a waste and lifted as an endangered species is also a flagship spaces for the by the versity in the area that we live in. and you only find this creature in cape town in the whole wide world. so that's why it's so special. the word go, so it makes for some incredible contact with these apparently trusting creatures. the volunteers use an app to record data on the toes, 6 size and the direction they're heading dynamos. then release near the ponds where they breed icon. make a difference with all of the things that go around in the world and all of the animals that die and the extent. but i can make a difference in my own backyard about an animal that is going extinct in analyzing data from multiple sources. cape tons of mental education trust designated several sides for the construction of told tunnels, underground passage rays that keep them fijians safe from traffic. so we've 9

phone number of years. that's right. mortality use of wisdom if, if there's a one of the biggest uh, impacts cuz on, on the populations and the pilot projects, it was based on width and in europe. and the intention is to channel tides through the tunnel as to the other side. and it's already in the last couple of days, we've had a tides moving through many of the toads reading ponds scott, to, to out suburban areas. even. that's why it towed not co found the fish allison fire days, once locals to be aware of the animals like mine and then cause it just one of the threat cause they faced around swimming pools and family pets. that also has a desk. as we approach towed season, we'd like to do populations events to educate the public as to the migration that's happening on the noses during winter. and it helps people to really have a sympathy and the kind of intimacy for this animal frogs onto memos. so we really

do have to encourage people to identify with the frogs as if they are and for them to conserve them in the, in the gardens and in the suburbs. around 40 percent of the worlds. and phoebe and species are threatened with extinction. even though it's a global issue, the volunteers from toad and that's determined to do their bit locally. they hope their interventions and education programs would at least keep the western lip. it towed alive and well. oh i thought we'd like, oh, so quick be likely save time flies when you a housing center. i hope you've had it amazing episode and i hope it has been very informative for you. and you've picked quite a number of ideas he in there on how to resolve the environment out of goals. it's been amazing costing the show we've you case. hopefully i'll see you all next week when you exciting episode of africa. thank sandra. it was a great,

so stay tuned. a ride to your comments on social media platforms will be back next week, same time, same place for now. goodbye from me in nigeria, the

toxic air, south africa's economy depends on cold. but air pollution is a legal problem. and deals are pushing for a switch to renewable energy, but with so many lively,

it's dependent on cool. it's a test message to sell a 3030 minutes dw, the wish i could've done more the same. you just click away, find the best document on you to really see the world as he's never seen it before. the dr. no to dw talking entry, guardians of truth. my name is junk and and i have
