policy of the ok. now let's just take a look at the close solve and see in kenya, but he's especially dedicated to the protection of xerox. from the outside. this looks like a bruce will capture. but these game keep is one to transpose. this threw off to say, foot round on the mainland rising bullshit levels. unlike the ring go tend a section of the draft conservation area into a 9. and so in 2021, the risk of wild life conservancy managed to relocate 7 stranded animals. all of them endangered rules, child's drugs, distinguishable by the wide lower legs. it was over a decade ago that the conservancy in the local community 1st joined forces to create a century photographs. but a few years ago, money to read the spaces, it became clear that those stranded on the nearly imaged island was suffering badly
9:33 pm
. dialing the there was a lot of telling us number one of the draft and the constant attack the by the 5th . second, there was the list footage that there was a talk like pace on the trunk or the young ones and also the crocodile. so comparing the island on the mainland, we saw that the, the telling is i'm more, you know, i'm letting me not roots towards drops. i mainly found in savannah's like here in the ringo region in kenya and neighboring uganda. only about 1400 can still be found today. the numbers have been greatly reduced, mainly due to poaching. but with the involvement of the community, the situation is improving helped by a 17 square columbus, a drop century established within the root co conservancy. the and an animals are watched over by ranges and members of the tweak of lindsey or to rock
9:34 pm
god initiative robots, buddy, who is one of them. having grown up here, he knows a lot about the giraffes. a good way to get out from the time when we were children and i knew what we have been told that the roads challenger read, originated from the ringo and i from the funding and was called the ringo duran is i'm going to have let's meet was said to be very sweet, young black and that's good. and i'm and the bone y'all can be a very special type of fat that people used for medicinal purposes. one of the common dollars today would match as most to him, is that the animals can strive and reproduce. the monitoring team regularly checks the numbers and checks out for injuries. at the moment, there are 14 rough childs drove off in the recovery area. the initiative, not any benefits the giraffes, but also the people who live here. the old thomas and the poor coat. these pistol
9:35 pm
communities have a long history of conflict of animals and grazing. then the new uh, uh, piece around uh, the vehicle headed right now until when the 2 held us from the community set down, the see that we need to do uh, way life consultancy. we need to lead to this. uh, let's try to do it off. so it must be known as a bilingual draft symbol of unity in the stuff. now we're going to be sure so that it's going to bring the 2 communities together. but to do this, they needed both land and 2 rocks which had disappeared from the ring. go, each community contributed land, and the conservancy brought in h wolf childs drops from another nature was us. meanwhile, community members are also beneficial, especially if people have found jobs as ranges. old, you're off guards like rutledge putty on the communities also receive a portion of the conservancy is income, which they mainly use to pay children's school fees. the kids of also developed
9:36 pm
a respect for the animals not the telling the giraffes are good because they helped me generate revenue from tourism, who did the best of funding. and they also fertilize the soil, authentic window and the welcomes young. the project is supported by international in g o's and is now well accepted by both communities to go to the we can now talk about how to protect the animal, the thought. so yeah, i mean how we can develop guidelines to protect them. but in the past, due is what that process and what we can do and create new employment opportunities and what new things we can introduce so that we can continue to grow. and you've got to know that we are really benefited since bringing these animals here. as the journalists have settled in well, of the century, the numbers have nearly doubled in the past decade from 8 to 14,
9:37 pm
and their own little babies on the way to the females of pregnant. from the beautiful landscape in kenya to the found this, you are all in the fields on here and load, probing asian on the snow of this punch of diesel is the really progress? what do you think? well, anyone who wants to trade in the rocks for a truck to just really has to buy a diesel powered vehicle? well, there are more environmentally friendly alternatives. we went to a farm is rhonda webb, if you say that you track the role model for others. it's just a normal working day for members of the do core and cooperative nicky galley. the village is still the fields by hand. the many help as a busy for weeks to to the shock. cultivating a large area like this using just toes is difficult. we do it because there's no other options either. if we had a cold evasion machine,
9:38 pm
we could produce more with less effort 0 c, tractors, around. but also in the older vehicles that we no longer wanted to go to. they tend to be noisy and the diesel is also not always available and rise in fuel costs means that the often economically on viable from the outside. the solution looks remarkably similar to a 2.2 ton tractor with a 27 postcard engine. but the motor is electrical. the pallet, a gentleman, call me cuz village this e tractor prototype along with the university of to galli. and the guys that german development agency. it's a convert the dive of tractor into and electric truck until you see we just replace the diesel engine with an electric motor and put the battery on top of that. and that you'll see the sloping desk. you'll see the 2nd battery on this desk. and when
9:39 pm
you come in here, you can move forward them back. and then with that you can release the battery. and so look back and put the full battery on the tractor itself and can then resume working. the batteries are charged using solar energy, solar electricity isn't just clean. it can also be used of great early off of route one days actually connected to the grid. burnett, my ends between and his team from need of this to for one day, a working on making the batteries more robust so that the track to consume go to work on the dusty some the fields. rhonda need each other control means that musician to be user friendly because of for a using the, the invalid, the police are further the 8 to maximize the productivity. agricultural product is the one that has to increase its every cultural productivity to help feed. it's
9:40 pm
rapidly growing population long periods of drunk linked to climate change, or increasing the pressure to make finding more effective and sustainable to the fact that the track is intended for use in more remote areas is a particular challenge for the developers in the team of fi w engineer who the language the main point is to make an electronic contract or as simple and easy as possible because it should be easy to operate. and the other thing is this, when it is simple and easy to maintain and to retail, to make the check to suitable for working for london fields. the prototype has to be further improved. and is that so the team of developers traveled through the country speaking to potential future uses wherever we want to input how the text
9:41 pm
that sort of it designed what 3 to be the task of that that does collect stuff. and we also want to to, to take into account some of the activities that can be done by that's correct. and plowing isn't the only job the truck that should be able to tackle here. remember, one to productivity of solving areas can only be increased if other foaming jobs can be automated as well. the develop as a test, whether it can be harnessed to help everything the prompts. then we have testing the problem. then you will put it on an electric truck stuff so you can use it for code division using your, your plow that could be a display. then you can also hook up the planter to roll for real plant type in food, then you can use it for planting and then other tasks. then we can use the truck that is for spring, that is your crop protection for pest and disease. food costs that have been
9:42 pm
counted out, mine would be up to now many farmers cannot imagine that the tractor is going to be ready any time soon. but they do realize what the difference might be. sure, i don't know if there really is such a tractor and it's available to us. it will be seen as a liberator for farmers, because we won't have to work so hard to get our work done. the chapter is going to be ruled out in 2024. the idea is that it will be purchased but into village rather than an individual found that managed by cooperative. the vehicle will make a lot of task easier. so don't forget to bring stain in the countryside this time and gone to the ball, but it's the only 3 approach oper done. it's a pop assigned the nature of many people use the lives for different purposes. well, how? so what fits it with respect? it's does of physics doing your bits has to answer
9:43 pm
the when the dry season has passed and the battle babs, sprout their leaves again, women and gone up set out to harvest. it's hard and dangerous work because thou, bob's can grow to more than 20 meters high and the women have to climb to the outermost branches to cut the leaves. in the past, they'd only harvest for themselves, but now there's also demand for the leaves at international markets. yeah, regardless. first time you head out to collect the leaves the best the best they are going make soon with some of them may go and dry. some of them have to sell it the market in neighboring to jennifer. so you know, yeah. me of that for the trees. this is a fatal development, little by little vile bob's had been disappearing from the region. why is your condo but i'm doing, the pain is not going to full force on you use a new one man,
9:44 pm
when you lived a tree to stay after dozier to food thinking to every year, to keep cotton on cartoon cartoon. so that is, that is all the time, in fact, in the lives, how much time on the decline in nature of the place. that's why julie is our achia from the organization. indigenous initiatives and sustainability is working to end this destructive harvesting practice. it goes to the effected regions to provide training on how to manage the trees sustainable in the end. you also runs nurseries that read about the seedlings, go to local families who plant them on their land. this gives them the chance to make some extra income, while at the same time, helping to help the disappearance of these iconic trees in gonna and how about you? if you're also doing your bit, tell us about it, visit our website,
9:45 pm
or send us a tweet. hash tag doing your bit we share your story from africa to europe now. so almost a getting dry of by the front is particularly affected. so far, most of worried about drugs never the less, they are just plans by the french government to collect rewards and huge quantities . we wanted to understand why people gathering by the thousands to protest at a construction site. the demonstration took place in western france in march 2023. when police intervened, the situation turned violent, resulting and serious injuries on both sides. and this is the project in question. a water reservoir is climate change causes
9:46 pm
more frequent droughts. the new reservoir is meant to provide local farmers with enough water to irrigate and dr. periods, but not every one welcomes it. the people here incense so mean a village of less than $400.00 are divided on to a pebble is one of the farmers in favor of the project. his connection to the reservoir was already in place of 11 fist. the showing that before the protest, we took a bales and wooden planks and made a little structure to put over it, which we covered in during the what some of them knew what it was and torch, the whole thing. the only reason i said i'd say that goes a new to a telephone. pebble farm is $170.00 heck, there is of land. he grows mainly wheat and corn crops that do poorly without additional irrigation during the hot summer months. this is amy little handle is also a farmer, but he's opposed to the reservoir, the waters, the vegetables,
9:47 pm
he grows on 3 heck tears from a well right on the property with a tree. the water level has dropped over the past 2 weeks long. but normally it overflows in winter, but right now i'm getting that it's at least 2 meters, lower valley. but you did build a lot email, kept it player wise job. you know that he's worried that his well could run dry. if more rainwater is caught in the basin and less seeps into the ground water, you ibex that. i won't have access to the reservoir music, but i haven't got much land rover. so it doesn't make financial sense to put in the connection for portal. it wouldn't be worth it for equal social for it all. the locals who aren't directly involved in agriculture are somewhat conte between the fronts shown which when you listen to those in favor, they have really good arguments. it shows that those were opposed to it. i confess,
9:48 pm
i don't have a clear understanding of utah, it's a massive construction site for just 12 farmers. i think it's a public good. it's just a visual. these people will monopolize some of the water reservoirs like this are being constructed all over france as part of a government plan to support the farming industry. climate activists say it's foolish to capture and hold water when it's already scarce. they say a better solution would be to switch to a less water intensive agriculture. the environmental journalist month, low monthly, believes conflicts over water will only increase and not just in the agriculture sector. sunscreen. when i think sensor lien is just the beginning of what will happen in france as water scarcity intensifies all of it. so how the fix to levels will phone lose it that you will have a shortage engine. we will have rationing goods and then some point there won't be
9:49 pm
enough water to go around the blue. it won't show up for us to do well with a mobile vegetable farmers. i mean, alondo also wants to project stopped, but he's concerned about the violence of the protest in march. so thank you to us on the phone with somebody the other. yeah, it wasn't a war exactly. but somehow similar sense of protests and much of that. but i can go anywhere near the reservoirs and it was all too much is a total of the cells on to your home also fears another round of violent protest. but he can see the issue resolving itself any time soon. on the altar, there's no more discussion just before this is all keen to begin. impossible to talk to people who are totally willing to talk on the condition that near respect their actions is keeping the environment home passes. grooven 5th,
9:50 pm
the dispute in central name is just like that of many communities in central and southern france. and when temperature start to rise, the battle over water is only bound to intensify back to africa now and we're talking about women. what's so special about them just sondra and also regarding the environment. well, crease, you know, we all sisters, friends and mothers. women across the wallet showed aggressive responsibilities. and many also particularly committed to protecting mother nature. perhaps because we understand how important that healthy planet is full of descendants, a loss report takes us to south africa where we meet a few special women walking to resolve traditional practices and knowledge that
9:51 pm
for the vendor people, south africa trees are separate each and everyone. today vote and because i did joyce and a group of students a planting 20 in know, funding in purple province. you're going to be shown someone, the mobile or voice of nature has planted over a 100 trees in the village of tvs in the past few weeks. since 2000 new pool pool has low, 17 percent of its indigenous forest cover, as trees were raised to make way for plantations and my a mobile. another organization exist to give a voice to nature which cannot speak for itself. we believe it is our responsibility to protect the environment and its inhabitants. as a child, i was taught to respect trees and not to cut them down indiscriminate trees like the eldest of living beings. when we destroy them, we lose a part of our heritage and our connection to the natural world the. i'm bet,
9:52 pm
a way out of a highly respected invent dakota. whole more because that the joyce is, i'm a catchy, a female. nita, who upholds traditional knowledge of seeds, so in the end nature, which she passes on to younger generations who defended the missing people. so i mean, i loved planting trees. not only do trees produce oxygen, they also help us. and so many of the ways they provide as medicine would for furniture and delicious fruits to eat plenty cheese makes me feel good and way ahead of me to someone. let me pull some of the country, walk closely with other communities to address issues such as food security, land stupid ation, biodiversity loss, and climate change. this l does sick to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of the unnatural and cultural heritage as the voice of nature. they also defend and the alons against potential threats. and
9:53 pm
of these wise elders are in big demand. today, the chief of she's the fee, consult with the full because that the joyce regarding a proposed cold mind development near the beach, the mind needs the approval to go ahead. but the 2 liters are skeptical. the money i want to allow mining here. mine will cause will die. the gas as they read the like poison, the pollution makes the whole community sick. if the want has gone terminated, the trees we planted will die to. it's like sitting on top of a bump ball my 10. which is concerns a well funded in the neighboring province of them from a longer coal mines have close to must have environmental degradation and health problems. but the physical father, vendor people believe nature is a spiritual need into connected trees. rivers and mountains are living beings with their own personality mining will disrupt the disconnection and endanger the
9:54 pm
traditional way of life in order to protect it. a founding member of the more potent but the lady mccullough really promotes the contribution of indigenous crops next finger minutes and kind of us that's combining the preservation of cultural heritage with plants stay positive. she is setting up a seed bunk with almost canada about overlooked crops. so this was less of this is the bank is in education as a facility. where for them to then use a desk from us, they will come in and then they know there's out under the seed in the switch system. and it causes that because the city does not look for it does not state i knew it was his name is needed for all this. the steps to weigh in should be the whole more because that the joyce is sharing how knowledge with egypt of a group of children. the deep conviction, that's all things are part of a ledger, pulled that to connect humans, animals and nature, is taught from
9:55 pm
a young age. to illustrate that better, she shows them a seasonal color and up based on traditional knowledge for whole more cause that the joyce culture and this to a triples nature of one and the same thing as we are teaching these children about the seasons in a way they can understand the traditional practices of the emphasis costs down through generations to ensure that our culture, that's called the way of life, not the us in a while to the indigenous coaches, an entire echo systems are under constant threat zone one level is a bust, june of hope for the preservation of both wall very is fiery rates. i hope you enjoyed the last 2 of the 6 minutes time for me to say good bye from nigeria. i am present,
