these awareness of the issue with a wide range of projects to pansy. pico africa. next on dw, we've got some hot tips for your bucket list. magic corner check. hot spot for food. and some great cold from the boys to boat. w, travel off, we go the to hello and welcome to a new edition of equal offer go. i'm chris, elaine's joining you from ogle states, nigeria, today we'll be looking at everything from great god mean ideas to critical issues

like posted. but 1st, let's see. hello, sandra. alexandra hi, grace greetings from uganda, and nice to be with you again. all of your view is this how i'm doing us today. i am sending between the best in you've done this coffee to come put up. well, environmental show is brought to you by dw e gemini, tennessee, the image area, and mtv right to any good. well here is a what we have for you today. the people is building 2. let me go ahead into the sample space on the west, in uganda. so wanting to nature, to making the construction industry more sustainable on securing a better future for open shields in gauging. we can cope with a big problem that affects many countries in africa. poaching the huge

illegal and then just strength in wildlife fonts is typically very difficult to bring forces to just it's now a sensor in so tough again has met. this is mission to tones to, to light on wildlife crime by fighting pushing with forensic science. it's an all to come inside in south africa is reserves. ryan of chilled by perches open to find the object it killed him. it's often the 1st clue to catching the cooper. it's what it requires. a lot of new house, an expert, then short supply. reg simpson is taking on the boat is butchering wildlife here. since most of these crimes and never persecuted the founder, that academy that helps train ranges another 1st responders, wildlife crime scenes about the importance and, and trick is ease of criminal forensics. we realized that

a lot of the people that 1st came across these scenarios were not initially trained in handling a crime scene in particular was off crime scene. and this certain skills that are really valuable in forensics is one of those skills. so we felt there was a great need and that training ranges and people that are 1st responders or even professionals that come across to nora's way when an animal is poached or isn't. and now the legal activity. and if they have some of the forensic skills, then it means that them, that, that investigation is more likely to end up in a prosecution at court. at this facility, the academy assimilated several different wildlife crime scenarios based on real world examples, including a snare drums, a lion killed by community members, and the rhino poach was horn students a trained in forensic techniques in order to preserve and collect vital evidence which can be used by authorities to move forward with legal cases in this

environment, we can expose them to all these different scenarios so they can learn how to preserve and collect the forensic traces and document them correctly. so the lights are down the line, they end up with a successful prosecution in court. and that's what we've tried to create in this academy multiple scenarios, really drum and what them into then. and so when they go back into the real world and much better at texting while that's one of the main challenges when it comes to wad live crimes, is that the generally occurred remote places. so 1st is crop land as fast as offers. coveted purchase will ambush their prey. an issue with wireless comments of need aren't any witnesses? there's no one else around. uh, maybe someone had a gunshot, but that's, that's what do you have. but if you actually can link someone to

a con through something like a footprint or a cell phone or a weapon or dna, even that is really popular in court. often it's ranges if as discovery, animal that's been approached, they need to be trained on the initial response is there's risk of evidence being contaminated or destroyed by winful rain before the authorities going arrive on the scene. and that could make or break a case is challenges in court. i think it should be full hands on the ground. feel changes as well. um, because they often the ones who do come across the scenes before we do the i do think of something valuable for oranges i, tessa, and to ask the ethic and consummate as well. in addition to collecting evidence, students of the academy also take part in mock trials, whether you have to defend the evidence they've collected. the participants and

disseminated quotes proceeding include former prosecutors, judges, or law enforcement officials. collecting evidence is the only 1st step and a long legal process. in real world cases, ensuring that evidence can hold up in courses vital training which to, to 1st responders and those. and did you understand the role will definitely have an impact in fighting while of crime, in the sense that it will lend lead to credible evidence which the prosecution can use in proving the elements of the offense against the practice of as pitching is a $1000000000.00 business in asia, one kilo ryan on sales with tens of thousands of us dollars. the financial incentive is huge, rhinos, elephant reptiles, and sunk in plants all pay the price for consumer fads. the loss of life has profound impacts on the environment. these large mega format,

like elephants and suppose they have a really important role to play in an ecosystem. as prompt spaces, as large animals, they have an important role in shaping the environments and the habitats around them. they have a role in the disposal, nutrients, cycling, and by removing these animals and it's can lead to by diversity loss and changes and transformations of whole landscapes. in addition, it's kind of also need to unintended impacts for rental increasing human wildlife concepts and having for the impact on other hold tight food chain. some ecosystem last year, south africa last $448.00 minus approaching incident. but we also have a $130.00 wrist and a number of convictions, including one with a purchase with sentence, a 60 as in prison, as wildlife primes continue. training in dealing with them become increasingly

important to ensure that the countries biodiversity is protect. it will be returning to the subject of poaching a little later in the show. we've looked at how some of the trading victims of being rehabilitated so do stay tuned for that. now it's time for a visit to a school right here in uganda with some innovative peebles. are we pulsing plastic to roll their own suits the fresh and they got into the see the screen it can be copied into that keeps you into bed and for all of the young farmers of said key to high school are successful the produce from their school farm is used to feed their entire student population . the students at the school on the outskirts of compiler, already grilled vegetables such as cabbages, raised chickens,

and farm. the fish know they're collecting waste plastic bottles that they used to build vertical gardens in various farms. and to make the most, the remaining growing space use it helps us in the way that we plant a lot of different plants you need. we have this come all we to need. um, we have the tomatoes, the tv, you know, if you have a small environment the to them, some of us have poor above ground. but to these to can help us in the way it takes us. but one, both to building as a result garden with mushroom cultures and waste caught in husks for soil inside the harvested mushrooms are sliced and dried for storage. this is cynthia unable to co way of using our spacing to invite them into web by we're trying to avoid all the different for us. got down let you finish cheese. they were doing this in

development and the malware tied of it and have come of the solution through the projects the students are learning innovative, eco friendly and sustainable. growing practices, how to be self sufficient and how to guarantee a healthy diet. and how about you? if you also doing your bit, tell us about 2 visits, all websites will send us a tweet hash tags doing your best. we share your stories. this is no sweets, coincidence onto cabal. it's a problem that affects us in africa to west in germany. the construction industry is, was possible for around 50 percent of all west produced. few buildings are constructive, sustainable. so looking at how to change is that the idea is to establish

a secular model to old materials are reuse or repub posed. but how does that work? let us show you. these german buildings don't only look models, but they might also pay the way to a circular future. they're built according to the cradle to create a concept. the idea is to replace our cradle to grave economy, where we take, make and waste, with a circular one. with the products of designs in a way that its materials can be reused over and over again. novo sophie grief on is the founder of the cradle to create a lab. it's an n g, a dedicated to spreading circular. we generally give design thinking across industries. politicians and designers welcome to the crate us to create a lab. you can come in here. we start here, if you see like from the labs that you can see. it's from a mushroom materials totally for biological cycled according to the concept to know

so fee, grief funds, father, mucho brown god, and his colleague william mcdonough created everything we build must go to either what they call the biological cycle or the technical cycle that meets the materials used to build the products, need to decompose, that's becoming nutrients for the soil, or dismantled to become what they called technical nutrients. and we used in other products. so we have an shows in here, right? you can see a lot of products that are already produced, crated to create a manner the flooring. you can see if i move, i can actually take it with me. a prep pool that you don't need to do this. it is made out from the packing material, moving if and then crated crate. not the best idea to do that because it's quite difficult to disassembled. the lab uses these carpets that are totally made of

recycled fibers, not fluid. and you can bring it back to the average company and they can just take a look and make it totally new carpet. all of us drove us, of the refund argues that there are a lot of natural alternatives to most of our commonly used toxic products. this material, it's quite interesting because it's like a mix here. it is that you cannot just take from the fee in 2 seconds. you don't need extra to change it a lot. so call them tune balls are basically dead sea grass that could be collected on shores and use as a high quality insulation material. all these examples seem perfect and relatively easy to implement, but we need to change the way we have built our homes and products for the past decades. 50 years ago, we knew that that negative environmental consequences if we have certain building habits. so in the beginning they had felt that v require new knowledge is to be

able to build appropriately. but right now we have a different problem. professor arnold palmer condo is an award winning architect, mostly known for her sustainable projects, like these ones. when standardization is being imposed, then the must have the courage to question the limits of standardization. and the construction sector is especially standardized and rigorously conservative. some practices haven't changed in centuries. to concrete, for example, it's the 2nd most used material in the world, only after water. if it was a country, it would have been the world's 3rd largest carbon polluter. after china and the u. s. last year we produced 4400000000 metric tons of concrete. according to the us projections, at this rate, we would be producing enough concrete to build the entire city of paris every week for the next 40 years. that is

a lot of concrete and for several reasons, this material is not widely recycled. a big one is standardized, bad practices says march. so is there a circular engineer focused on cradle degree to applications in the construction sector? if you will use educational tests are all concrete on people, is why it's good. so april 5th. suppose i use the quantity of the call by not able to use it later. so chip, some plaster makes the concrete and recyclable. but a similar looking silicon base plaster doesn't affect every usability of the concrete or let's look at steel. a universally used material in construction that could have an infinite live cycle. just a simple decision to use bolted connections rather than welded joints would allow the structure to be dismantled, making it easier to we use them it.
