too, i didn't think so many women would send me the photos. she's there motivator. all of us hire on this one must be the and she won't give up the stomach for public took my brother hostage a few days ago. but at the trying to sign in the scene of the job they will be silenced. starts june 3rd on dw, the what to ease of the souls of life for every living thing, with a plant or animal. and it is also the focus of a base weeks program. so welcome to africa and sandra 3,
12:31 pm
nobody was coming to you from complex. right here and you get, hey sandra, it's great to be here with you. once again, as we can see, it's a beautiful day here in oregon state. i am chris gloves and here's what's coming up on today's program. so we need to increase why me? the awareness in donna fits in boats with electric motive in kenya, and using a printout to produce food, a teams to find out more than a quarter of old gun and leave on the coast. so protecting water there is of vital importance, but not just close to waters inland waters to our report. i and gone now went to learn more about how local active is, are raising awareness. a
12:32 pm
touch as put on his custom made recycled swim suits and his buddies, the swimming of a loving kilometers as it has been, shall cover every day for 40 days. and that's an overall root of 450 kilometers. passing along the volta river. and then to lake volta, the world's largest artificial reservoir. it's one of the few lakes in gonna, but it's still clean enough to swim it. activist in every business and type in a touch as part of a scientific expedition that's seeking to draw attention to the pollution of gunners, waterways. so much of the reason that i'm part of this expedition and working with a cruise to do this research is because it is so encouraging and so amazing to be able to swim and simple to river like this. and i love to see some buddies. and so on and specifically across the, the swimming boat, again this down to containing against environmental collusion, some 8 years ago. and that's when she came into contact with the oil foundation and
12:33 pm
environmental justice nonprofit, the organized expedition other members of the team also spend time on the water to take samples from various points along the route of collecting sandwiches and reduce to be get some data about temperature ph on the purpose built solar power, both the samples of idolized and the small lab. the other is looking especially for mike or 5 of tech stalls. that's not the only thing here. we can see the color is very different from the rest of the water that we've been swimming along. so here is a green, it's really changes. i mean, it depends on the places where we, uh, if we are close to villages, for example, we will be collecting some samples for back to a logical tests. if we are close to factories or industrial areas, we will be checking for heavy metals, for example. like yeah,
12:34 pm
the other villages better, which now has a number of industrial sites like the sun mine, the pollution it creates has had a devastating impact on the local fishing industry. the area used to have lots of fish this. yeah, the overall look good. then all the fish are gone to is you know, up to san mining and the leg has destroyed our livelihood sign. a cool is in oklahoma. we are a fisherman. again, that's how we make a living and assessing. and so now we even struggle to find in our search to read ourselves and the guidelines forgot to opt out of the mining industry is not totally harming the environment. it also makes the process of clarifying drinking water much more expensive the spectrum what i would suit about the settlement. and so the principle generally be broken down more often than anticipated. so possible for maintenance of these forms also boost and the, the,
12:35 pm
the 2 of us will have to be back to our what i know, what are we done most of what we use and that's just one problem. chemicals and ways from households in other industries. also a good time to watch a lot with many of 15000000 items of 2nd hand clothing center gone every week over 50 percent of it ends up in huge weight feeds and across the good hundreds of lots of samples i've been analyzed by the foundation that's everywhere we sample, we see some degree of pollution in some places. of course it's better than others. but what our goal is with this research is to really drive toward action, so that the level of pollution we see here and across does not spread and replicate in other areas of the country. and we can find pathways to clean up the pollution that's here. and across the old foundation is loving the government,
12:36 pm
but also wants to raise public awareness of just how harmful the waste is. the important clothing waste in particular. so many people don't even understand that we have a 2nd, i'm pulling and coming from the global to the global south, or that there are other issues that are affecting the policy of our water. so what we want to do is really hope to bring attention in awareness to the quality of the water and the issues that i play here to get people involved. this was the fact that the 1st 2 men contain is feeling tight but optimistic that one day given the lagoon and across once again the clean enough to swim in. us temperatures rise as sources, dry up. more and more communities around the world are left without access to clean water. that's why scientists and angels are working hard to find solutions for harvesting in areas. we have full just come and provide much needed relief. let's
12:37 pm
find out how they do it in spain. that you made a t they bring is a tricia clowes, a fuck shroud. the mountains of spain's good. i'm kind of idea at a time of increasing drought and we'll discuss it to every drop of water in them. is a blessing here as many as possible of these drops of being catch it in the next monitoring the process is the drop off cell or the back of it as even when there is no fault the environmental technician has worked to do the 15 collect as when stalled here 2 years ago, it's a fairly simple system which requires a fox location and a bit of wind. when for moisture raindrops accumulate on the mesh, the water drips down into a tank and then flows directly into storage units at different locations downhill by a multitude of houses. it won't go out until they got the with the collectors that
12:38 pm
we have here. we could catch the 300000 meters water per year of that, according to the manufacturer. to date we have captured 45000 meters. why didn't they seem? we are of course the weather, which will be my. there are years when i can catch much more and others when it will be less north through our goal is to reach $250000.00 leaders and per year like to achieve value. yeah. and if we can't rely solely on this traditional model and it will, but we'll also use newer designs that may be able to harvest even more water in a more. and if they're both in my, your decisions or leave a copy, data sends a team of environmental experts. he works with neat malta for holding for 20000 new trees. only a few minutes drive from the fall collect as they're restoring an area that was ravaged by flames in 2019 or she got different restoration projects are in full swing across the area, including on this hillside with 35,
12:39 pm
texas. i think we 5 to detect these education. rising global temperatures makes things kind of re islands, increasingly falling their role to drought and fires. still fragile new tracy leaves up edit in a by the degradable cook food. it ensures that the water that was harvested from the collect as well to evaporate too quickly and both the trees survival right. natalia metal abbey that leads the team here to her. this project is more than just a job. sleep like everyone else. i'm going to save you. yeah, i live close by 11 and then i saw the size cloud of smoke from the wildfire and i live and kept my suitcases in the call waiting to be evacuated, to set it up for us. and then at the, in the end, it wasn't necessary for them, nothing about them, but at least now i have the opportunity to restore the affected area to the island as part of me to this place in particular,
12:40 pm
i'm good. i'm in the the team of already planned to top of the trees for the life and you have less project, which has received millions of euros in financing from the local government. and you the deposit itself, a footboard, a currently emptied manually. but research as a trial in a storage system that releases the water or to know mostly into areas where it is needed. they have exist that the system has already improved soil moisture in areas where they plotted new trees. it's all things to fault created by the coast of the climate and cloud. so sending to the coolant mountain region for farm, a set amount of capital and the folks catches could be a game changer. his land is in walking distance of a collective. he loves up to 10 heck to as of, to apple and up trees and the 2019 files that i'm kinda the task really for and
12:41 pm
stuff now taking over what was once in or check it to simplify it, but everything to the ground. nothing was left on the charges sewing on of this year though he's quantity again, apple trees. and during the hot, dry months, his naples from life and you have less supplied full time in the past, hadn't been kind enough, was dependent on rain falls. got on you every year. the someone's getting longer and it rains that actually have a mentor. it rings less than $1.00 to $2.00 and it's more difficult to maintain everything. you put them on the face because without water, nothing what it is. you know, that's why the fuck water is genius. it's the solution of any 11 because here we don't have any way of watering it left. it was simply because no education under a no. well, you know, the lady, there's no more testing right now. there's only rainwater. she on the phone couches look like, tell her today and you know, in preparation for the hot summer as he wants to install his own. fuck alexis,
12:42 pm
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. at the certification. a lot of go blast. so c, look up though in the long run we will remove the collectors because the refers to the area will at some point of the take on the work of harvesting humidity for the governments. in the ro buick, that's how far us word solution level. they capture the humidity and the storage in the soil law that we'll see that in this way, i don't know for sound or leave accommodate us and the team every tree met us. canada is counting on its for collectors to help heal the wounds of the devastating wildfire and safe guard the island against future disaster. while the fact is amazing,
12:43 pm
and the great example of producing sizable results with minimal efforts on this report takes us to the largest body of water in africa. lake victoria, which is shared by tons anyhow. uganda. and can you stretch in nearly 340 kilometers from north to solve? the lake is essentials to the lives of millions of people. that's to crease and a lot of them are fishermen bought. unfortunately, most boards are we, diesel motors which followed the cold. they go electric. we took a ride on a boat on like victoria in kang as dusk falls, jared or to, you know, hits out onto like victoria. since he started using an electric motor, he and his team no longer have to breathe. they mix those teens and it's not as noisy i. c o 2 is one of the few fishermen here who still us with using an electric
12:44 pm
motion last year. it's much easier before he was constantly having to change gas or so you have to be careful with the propeller deadline. so i need to take it might owed me good to go to the day monday like this, past 3 for the year. so moving you to come cumbersome. these one you just do does start on monday. so he only has the electric motor and factories online from a company called a silver. every morning he retents the use bachelor and in the evening he receives a freshly charged set, a silver ring, so the email it has for the equivalent of around $38.00 heroes a month. the batteries cost 7 years 50 a day. the dutch starts have a silvo, had to do a lot of math to develop this business model. they saw the batteries and motors
12:45 pm
from germany. here in kenya, they have technicians who took care of the repairs and maintenance. they also offer a 24 hour service. if there are problems on level to the official me and have to call the school number that we can do sort of on encore. but sometimes when the technical issues are not in a position to be solved during that time, they have to, we have to send out is too much to go for them back for maybe 10, something component of aging for the bachelors are equipped with gps track is so that the birds can be precisely located in case of emergency or to look at it, you do have a new custom. it receives a free training sessions. so it depends on the coffee table in just a few days. the most important things that he does siri, well, then practice unable to get used to the email i sent you the welcome joshua luca
12:46 pm
has been involved since this task and done this done with the fisherman need and the company with the wheeler. we need to do some more difficult. i only did you said that they told me to cover it's like a fish. i'm and most of them try to go find the started as silva is working to improve the situation, but it's made contact with the companies in kenya and you've gone to effect we service use batteries. these could be rented out to the fisherman at a cheaper rate in the 2nd life, but please we make the mod eula. so the door, so we much, we make the cut into vibrations of our customers. but if the customer wants to go far, we give them more, but please let me check these recharged fees but, but so you like you want to go for we give you 4 months as you want to go. sure. the distance we give you one or 2 bedrooms and you pay for what you use around
12:47 pm
25000 size, a house on lake victoria every day. and many of them belong to canyon fisherman to use combustion engines which pollute tonight and home the fish population. jared or to, you know, has already persuaded some other fishermen to switch to electric mentions. but he and a silver a still among the pioneers of email that i see and it will take many more like them to see a benefit to like tori. and i wouldn't mind taking the screen on don volt, something better equipment on a no. the only challenge facing spaces today. patient stultz, also declining all over the globe box, researches in israel has come up with a surprising solution that could make a huge difference. here is basically doing give it
12:48 pm
on the display rocks off, so on this selection plentiful. but the abundance is deceiving. the number of fish in our oceans has drastically decline. the human food and agriculture organization says one 3rd of all species are over. fished on 60 percent are exploited to the maximum. but how about manufacturing fish instead? to protect marine life? that is really food takes the top is showing the way using a mass green fence, so coaches to 3 d print fish fillets. the flexion is of the face is, is something that is unique for fish. when you costs a whole cup of meat, you can see the mazda 5 it's, it's very high, dense of 5. in the fish, the density is much lower. the flakiness is something that is much more easier to mimic and without pressing protect the printing capabilities we noticed 3,
12:49 pm
the print, exactly the same fixture and flakiness of a real fish. the 3 d printed fillets have made a splash in the company's test kitchen. select 2 guests, i served a unique face dish and they told me that i can feel the same, almost the same um, experience experience of the fish structure in my mouth. and i'm also really amazed by the juiciness and also the kind of a battery of fuel in my mouth. at the moment, the printer can only produce 2 types of face, but in a year's time, the manufacturer and a partner from single one to bring printed fish products to the asian market with a launch it variety. eventually for group or entry you'll, we have 3 other species in our pipeline that are also endangered a sort of species that will be coming out with publicly in the next few more us.
12:50 pm
and the goal is to build a repository so that the same hardware can manufacture products from any of the cell lines, printing fish, instead of touching them. that could take some of the pressure off our oceans on devin habitants, and allow fish ducks to recover on our oceans to be restored to the full mcclory the band. how about you? if you're also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website, or send us a tweet. hash tag doing your bit. we share your story. you know, last before, for today we'll take a look. it's an ation solution to a temporary problem. merkel has lost almost 3 quarters of the palm goose in the
12:51 pm
last 10 years. not to spot news, but honest. we know what the ease lies. the re discovery open is set for what some one has been funky, is giving hope to the people that every saturday people flock to go me most market to buy fruit vegetables such as okra, olives, and a wide variety of date. they are the main crop thrown in the oasis around cool mima, a bird town in south eastern morocco. the livelihoods of people in this arid region on the edge of the sahara desert rely on oases. these are under threats that would find easy, an agricultural engineer who specializes in these green eco systems laments their environmental degradation. this was the solve this equation via waste. these are fragile ecosystems is because they're located in the sahara desert. oh see, and there's no precipitation here. agricultural production is directly affected the
12:52 pm
on the so after 2 or 3 years of drought the we already feel the problems because also the copeland, you know, we ceased like these people live from agriculture and raising live stock. but morocco is suffering from to certification fires and the worst drought in decades. rising temperatures and erratic rainfall have lower river levels, increased evaporation, and costs, storage dams. to sales out. this is led to a 20 percent reduction in overall water resources in the last 30 years. to overcome water scarcity, farmers are restoring ancient irrigation systems known in morocco as get that as their underground canals make it possible to collect ground water and just loose the force of gravity to deliver it to the farm fields. and some i thought you said through where the located in at 4 and the province of attitude, you pulled vance is actually the, this is a tata that has more than 600 years old and it's still operational. so it to do
12:53 pm
better, tata is important because of the system that brings water from the mountains to the oasis. and thanks to the reins that come 2 or 3 times a year and managed to infiltrate with the soil, got a 3 d, a the, the walk. well that's a tie. retains the water for a long period of time on the help that i got. but what do you see from the law? there is no evaporation, but they've up what i see in the water that is collected at the level of effect tata cuz channel directly to the field data to see what i said as a compute cut that us range from 2 to 15 kilometers in length. their tunnels are generally sloped in descent as far as 10 meters below ground. access traps followed the fact that as route from the water source to the reception basin located every 12 to 15 meters,
12:54 pm
the shafts allowance of the clearing of blockages caused by a settlement on the mall checkup that all the content uh is cleaned every year by the farmers themselves, as we can see here on the phone, if you guys get off all the way to that is pretty good i saying to their spirit and ingenuity, do they have long been able to maintain and safeguard the system be so got to be so that it ensures the life of the oasis legs. this was this the head that are read by and sexual tradition. remember, customary water rights are inherited. the labor force provided by each user during construction, determines how much water each can later consume every tunnel. also as a guardian chunk with the shoring it functions well the, the thought of moving the is a very important to us, the things to us. and we have water to drink, irrigate the crops, give to our live stock, and use for our domestic leaders like laundry in washington. yes. well this your vacation system is vital without it,
12:55 pm
and we can't live here much. there's simply no light on the condition league. contrary to fit their dogs helped to keep always seats like this alive, while more effort is needed to restore these old irrigation systems and increase ground water levels. the sanction technology provides moroccans with a novel way to adapt to climate change. what's it can be found everywhere on us bond less than 2.5 percent is available for human and annual consumption. lease is a good reason for 16. better in the future. we hope you've gained something from watching today's special edition on more to and i look forward to seeing you again next week. goodbye from you again. bye sandra. and it's fairly well from me to, for the looms in the state by jerry up. did you want to learn more about drought

12:59 pm
so the vehicle's been designed to pick up nodules and leave as much settlement behind as possible. but this time a research team will study the possible risk 1st order to minimize them. we have an opportunity to get it right before we even start. we have a whole new industry that will perceive only when regulations of things are to place. environmental activists or skeptical is this true nature conservation for only green washing. after all, there are billions to be made. our 2 parts, document, tree, deep sea greed starts due date on dw, the,
