that loans is use just for his food, for people and for the annual is now. think about that. welcome to equal africa. i am sandra tween over here and i increase their lives lots to have you with us today . that's a good point, sandra. we've learned the hard way back and look, we'll find the mess. olds are equally sustainable or healthy, especially about they are being parked on the climate. that's why the floss seems to day care. so look at what else we have in store. most incredible deals with the help of solar power. buckling the legal coral trait. and making the boat as the roll, organic waste and the way you leads,

it's nearly impossible to escape pollution and cold submission whether in the air, sewing, or even want to for example, from the signs they want or originally hailed as in game changes. but we know no thought the not only poison the food we eat, but also cute is like split up by 2 to processes such as poor condition. the tide, however, is starting to change right to in uganda for example, the government. he's taking pipes to transform conventional agriculture to a new comic system well or equal offical correspondence. genius with gum was paid a visit to one, especially promising project is about 70 kilometers. most of your guns is copied to accompany our lives of farm with a difference from above. it resembles a tropical rain forest,

but below the color is one of the largest bow de nomic pharmacy nafrica. it is a life project of muslim shifty who runs the farm on sustainable principles for more than 50 years. the idea are familiar with a non because we got to is to from successfully while intervening as little as possible. not charles processes. each of these things probably does own way every, every life plant creates its own source of energy and interconnectedness. so we tried to minimize our disruption of the land, the plants to saw as the insects, the diversity in 2008 on freeform became sub saharan advocates. first from to receive abode a non excessive vacation issued by demeter international, a key, organize the awful gunning funding around the world. a co principal of by with a nomic funding ease, enabling diversity of the, from the landscape, putting
10:34 am
a living ecological systems fast. the entire farm concept is very unlike what most firms could refer to as model cropping. here you see within a 5 meters zone, we have black pepper rivera. we have coffee, cocoa, gray, and birds. actually. the holistic approach also means that the lights still kept on the from a low to grids, freely, often feeding among the crops on the past. you can return them and you want and reach us. the soil fertilize us use the strongly restricted, invited a nomic funding, which has its own methods of keeping sawyer photo. as a lot of our from waste on from they should use. we can post them box with any more money, and the more them to make it more reach. i'm new train reach manila that we play in the field called compost, which we integrate with ada biden to make preparations. these organic preparations
10:35 am
was specified by the in the sandy struggles tina who's touch of the bio to you know, make funding methodology in the 1920 is taking the toys of 10 of the can take many phones as a funding expert pointed out, the source would never be left there because a nature again, if a product back into the most as so, so they, they, they, they idea behind this driver bringing it to other countries because this is really unreal. got explosive. and that's one of the, one of the biggest challenges that some of the suffering with the but know as they embrace the beginning of each of them because they're protecting the soil and making sure that it is fully covered. they have beginning to see and quizzes in use . having a baby with a nomic certification means the form is subject to higher standards than usual regarding phones. it can charge a higher price for its parties, which is repaired and positive. so to consumers, in the e. u us
10:36 am
a and i'm in rates. i'm lucky if the products the send me that they don't have to be course damaged or have been in some kind of damage or have been fairly space. bio dynamic funding has proven the big successful unfree which exports and coverage of $240.00 tons of gunny forties annually. the size of the farm is crucial to the success of 600 heck to is it is 5, be good the most to get them holdings. much areas can be left to regenerate. so easy to role models for the farmers, and you're going to, as the people here that this was get ahold of the summers kind of still do what he's doing and money to what we call a interesting funding. you know, you have a small space, but you give it to you, you give it to your, your, your money, get when we're using the nutrients. you're not good customer with core,
10:37 am
we do it for quarter micro doors. and when you try to go to the plant, you know, your ticket with those and your trends and the if it's possible to do to get it, each of them will cost you at some most hold of the scale because we have seen the successes already. i'm free from there are also other benefits such as the 5000 marine trees, which have been described in some studies as a miracle planned for the a nutritional and environmental properties. even the oil itself. hm. what do you got quite a medicine but it has and medicine benefit health supplement benefit. now i've just learned that the japanese have done a study on this morning. a teresa quest is 20 times as much carbon dioxide as other trees seem shift to save that sustainability assessment found that for every kilo of proteins created up on $337.00 kilos of c. o. 2 equivalents will squeeze t at, but they have to transport, puts a big dent in over
10:38 am
a couple and calculation climate changes on us. and it's for them we enough. but also from this one was kind of for me to get. again, this kind of change by increasing our for us for trees and the some green crops that are able to stick with a couple. and um, we get into other questions and also enable that from us adopt because all the, all the practices that have promoted adaptive, it is interpreting. so for 2 weeks and management and close edition agriculture. a deep pioneering project has also given training to thousands of independent somers in uganda. many of satisfied to walk as of diet, food supply as or grow as full unfree. who by the approaches and explain to you to under the admin, manga kindly rhetoric. but they had introduced a very liable market for organic, produce the also a good price and paid on time compared to the local market. it brings in quite
10:39 am
a bit more and we benefit today. got in it for them. the same a shift, the hopes that he's a colored you called approach to learn use may inspire the promise to be able to receive ians against climate change, which would also improve livelihoods once a great project. another method of funding also is to protect eco systems. palmer culture derived from the phrase permanent record to its own about walking, weave and respecting nature. that's right, sandra, respecting they just studying aids. and then we take the bait. nearly 40 years ago to australians received the right livelihood. awards for developing this natural methods of money. doing the land. so today the concept is more lives than they have uh usually the playbook for more than agriculture goes like this. by
10:40 am
a huge block cloud, a plant, one single cro, use business. i taught us by a bigger plot to plow it to be forced to buy new needs, pump the same super engineer crump and it's carbon, pointing the soil degrade the and that's, we're supposed to think the only way to produce l suit by this definition like yet not is doing every single. here's a tiny plot. no machines, no toxins, and many crops. look at this with that, a ton of dry sand, the patch of ground, and to exist the cherry on top. he's much more profitable than the average industrial farm. the method he's with by is called palmer culture. the if i get both this plot 7 years ago, i really want to, so i'll do put use food in
10:41 am
a, in a sustainable or regenerative way. so i want to leave this place better than i found it anywhere in the world. it could, this could to could do this. he follows permaculture principles, cells directly to local restaurants and shops. works by hand and recycles is weights, meaning his food is basically climb and mutual on how dogs and industrial agriculture . palmer culture is a mix of the words coming in and agriculture. the idea is to create if the production system that is self sustaining and succulent. the gist of the idea is not new though. it's inspired by many indigenous traditions of self sufficient thumbing, like living off, small plots of land and planting multiple crops menu of its techniques has been tried and tested for millennia. and so say you bought a plot, the 1st thing you're supposed to do is to look at the landscape water flow climate
10:42 am
and design your farm around the circumstances. folks problem. very dry ground. yeah, yeah. isn't good to have a good example. um, so yeah, it's really courts course and the specific small stones in so it doesn't hold any water. it's a subordinate just goes in here and, and drops, drops right through. and sprinkling says the crops with tons of what like an industrial agriculture often does, is not an option. 5 made a so called swale of trends that live lower than the rest of the property. we want to acc entry, colin. i put big lots of biomass in the dark out trends and put all the errors on that on that too. and then put blocks and sticks into that trends. it's crazy. it just looks like a bunch of a bunch of logs somewhere. and this actually acts as
10:43 am
a sponge and some water collection for the collection system for the trees to, to really grow p. apply the same idea underneath the pulse between the fields and cover the trenches with which ships a process called mounting. stick and on the agenda protecting and building up a photo ground. we all know the big trenches, attractive leave when cooling the soil. but in time i go to the top soil with the minerals and its own existence stays intact. what stretching is also that every little row has different projects going on it. and each one gets replanted up to 4 times a year, producing more with less space. and if one crops failed, others grow to balance it out. but some rows and season for harvesting strips between rows. i kept completely wild so that native animals contrived promoting
10:44 am
both of us with one of the pleasant inside of the small slugs waiting. a lot of folks sell it until the biggest, like the kids eating, the smaller ones. there's a natural pest that's for pesticides. yes. and it's not only with flags, it's as miles as with the um, with insect a lot with birds like we have all these birds nesting around. so we make all these hedges that actually are really nice. and this thing grounds for birds. and the brits eat all the insects culture has gained and international following with funds everywhere from india, south africa to brazil. the tom is combining the dues with local agricultural traditions and adapting them to this specific context. in a while that's dominated by big funds and industrial agriculture, tom is like 5 need to get creative if they want to turn in profit. his vegetables are more expensive than conventional produce. similar in price to organic veggies
10:45 am
sold around the region, the special effects spencer was a surprise. come from ship labor and to cut pizza of old on one in your carrots. um, because it's destroying the world. culture has one big advantage. if the system does become self sustaining, you need very little input to produce food. so i have a really high profit margin. i'm actually 80 percent like 80 percent of my revenue is profit. it's. it's uh, yeah, it's insane because i don't have a tractor. uh, i the only thing that i originally pay for is the composite then the seeds. it's not for them getting rich, but i don't need much to to live off because i have my foods and i as well. so what could industrial agriculture loan from palmer come to us for some things
10:46 am
that definitely think that people come for us and also with the pros, inbetween roads, with heavy tubs. it's definitely all possible on echo forestry, it's a big seam there were 2 actually awesome parole trees around. it's not to be afraid since you actually have stayed on your, on the field. i think that's all the things that a big coach that needs to be addressed. as well as prompting multiple prompts that i'm moving to and using least more to and building up soil changes that have been proven to work and have already been made in larger scale organic phones. the barring ecosystem of the better to radio has been badly affected by climate change . it's coral systems would play a key role a maureen by diversity. i'll also be hates. it weighs on the certification of the oceans, close to by increased c o. 2 levels of designated many endemic coral spaces in
10:47 am
recent times conservation measures have given. stocks in the mediterranean are reprieve, but now the jewelry industry has re discovered these color flu. marvin's creatures of the to bulk of a coastal town in northwest, in tennessee for centuries. it played a role in coal fishing and trade in the mediterranean region. but these days, businesses bought nearly all of the once lively handy cross shops on the beach, coming out a closed more at our folly is one of the few who continued to make to re, from colorado, used to keep costs as dismissal to his children. but now he's not successful. cole isn't precariously short supply. so say, what am i stuck on? what, at some point they will probably be no more clear a left at all heading and people die out and more the see. read also east concerns
10:48 am
of justifies read coral, in particular is highly sought after and the jewelry industry. but the use mediterranean co populations have been collapsing, which that's with them, been criminal activity, solid and joey used to dive for carl. quite legally. he says that the rise in black market practices made that by unprofitable unsustainable yeah, the patient was a lot of legal fishing going on. and that creates huge problems for us because of the, destroys their carlos stocks and the entire seabed. me to the for my house, if 10 kilos of carl or growing on a rock illegal fishing methods will destroy all the habitats around it is kept press good to go high. is on drop by g. i'm not here to load up the carl is last. the only one kilo ends up being costs, so it's almost the fast. he says the purchase, carl is sold across the globe demand and stuff in europe and asia or is especially high performance either says it's hard for me to start to use to verify the close
10:49 am
origins. the difficult high school is almost like cocaine these days is on the top. you kept getting and you said yeah a while ago they caught him to tell him on with a boat who was transporting carl to italy, legally boxes. that's all fit for jackie. you have to take everyone knows, smuggling is happening here and it's put in the gun only thing, but it's not just the fishing, next coaching and smuggling that to destroying coral reefs in the mediterranean cases, the main culprit the entire region has been most of the affected by global warming, biologist sabri out his area has been researching the car while up the coast for a long time. the zip hot out across the bottom of the water temperature is steadily increasing but not positive. we're seeing that here in the mediterranean, especially in doing this to allow and we're already feeling the effects on uh to attracting many new species that aren't native to this region. or the actual fact
10:50 am
they are often very invasive. especially those here in tennessee and the naturally has in turn affects the water quality and the car will skeleton. see what do you machine as him. if he can, the end, the car becomes too weak to fix itself to the rock and can no longer develop properly, let them go and pull to ocean by a types of being lost. if the 5000 is known carlos species worldwide around a 150 live in the mediterranean, the reeks a home to many different marine animals. and they also provide them a source of food. when they collapse, its endangers the entire food chain in the mediterranean. many other species, such as sole centers and see that's the to result is on, right? a saw me is convince the all the problems plaguing the cold stem from one thing, humans and that greed you and how to wish and thought of them just like many
10:51 am
other species are coral's, are dying because we no longer give them time time to grow and develop simply don't appreciate the treasures of our oceans anymore. i think it was human, but that'll be up to a loss report today takes us to morocco. like in much of north africa climate change is bodily impacting the real coast. agricultural sector initiatives have been launched to mitigate the fact, but more resilience will be needed much as wide crease because scientific studies show thoughts, oracle needs to adopt its use of resources in farming to the changing climate, both on the national scale and on mtv to funds making those funds more self sustaining and energy efficient is a big stay in the right direction. so lot,
10:52 am
paul is gaining ground into agricultural sector. as most res that'd being sets up to cover on site energy needs. the vacation ponds and low con, from i'm at the less us feels have been paused by the sun for 5 years now. we used to rely on pertain gas. if also feel you guys have to buy in the city and you had, you were looking at some we were determined to stop contributing to the damage being inflicted on our environment. and when did so, we decided to switch to solar power as a clean or what didn't go friendly alternative or motivated. it's a good investments occasion and then it's more profitable in terms of business and better for our machinery. this farm is located in can you try and read, read genuine note, isn't positive morocco for the past 10 years with an olive trees of main leaving join in the sunday saw here which can only be done using trip a vacation. the know where the,
10:53 am
where he makes an organic substance about the sand and the kind of how to, how can we put it into these holes. and you don't have that code because how these hoses function is just attributed already headed. and what was the heading of what was the ad head in the because to middle i even and to keep the whole says from getting blocked out of several 1000 euros way invested in an elaborate filter system. the one that is pumped out of the catch basin is filtered before being spent through pipes to the fields. we'll see, i'm not a, one of the of the more he moves. the filters need regular checks and maintenance just because they are vital to process or a stuck in a motor cars and know that they're especially important for what's known as a localized irrigation, which requires water and it's free of any sort of impurities paint is 70. so upon is required on investment was approximately 80000 euros, but the system meets all the funds, electricity needs. companies like tech, my rock, i've had their work cutouts in recent years. i've technician installation technicians
10:54 am
making regular maintenance checks and looking at them. so they didn't have level after turning on the pump, well, and the water immediately flows into the tank. and what about, such as now full body? look, the tumor, which is connected to filters, you to have channels the water to be used for you regarding the menu can. she has a husband, can she did? extinction. so even though renewables are ready, subsidized by the government, more, more farm is switching to solar palm. the last few years alone of that $10000.00 solar systems of install the model cost funds. the check mark is benefiting from this trend to offer solar panels with different ratings depending on how much electricity is needed. use mostly for recreation to, to purchase on big bio for to life as well as a says green energy is was the investment when in sun found the east,
10:55 am
instead of investing in gas upgraded machine was, which are expensive and do that. we can opt for renewable energy that tells you, and it's actually very profitable. yeah, no, it's a cuts going because within, sorry, here's what i can i keep the money to pay the equipment to any of you. and then after that, i'm making a profit was actually was the end of the call. we'll get some credit card. i need a new one. so from us like i'm at the legs a can kill 2 birds with one stone. the n more while also taking better care of the environment. that's a full biggest weeks edition of equal offer. hope you like the she'll next week we'll continue to look at more inspiring environmental initiatives and the people behind them. i am substituting over you sign and go from complex right here in you've gone to see you next time. see you next week, sandra. i hope you all will join us next week too. in the meantime,
